Abstract: This article investigates the astrological determinants that may illuminate an individual’s competence for innovation and discovery within the complex realms of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). Drawing upon the esteemed principles of the Brihat Parasara Hora Shastra, the research establishes a comprehensive framework for evaluating one's ability to navigate the intricacies of these disciplines. It meticulously examines the relationships between planetary configurations and the dynamic interactions of astrological houses in the Natal and Navamsa charts, with particular emphasis on the connections between the fifth and eighth houses or the fifth and twelfth houses. Additionally, the study explores how these houses cultivate essential qualities and opportunities crucial for thriving in STEM-related advancements. By elucidating the predictive power of astrological insights, the article proposes systematic methodologies for assessing an individual’s likelihood of success. Ultimately, this research contributes to the academic discourse on the nuanced relationship between astrology and professional achievement in STEM fields.
