Planets have a very important role to play in the intellectual attainments of an individual. Late Dr Raman says that the ascendant, Moon and the Sun should be well placed for a person to have good education. In addition Mercury representing intelligence should also be well placed in relation to ascendant and the Moon. Jupiter is the planet of wisdom and proper placement of this planet shows the wisdom attained by a person through education.

Dr Raman classifies the human occupations into 6 categories.1) the intellectual avocations 2) Economic avocations 3) Aesthetic activities 4) routine day to day jobs 5) mechanical /electrical professions 6) Trades

We can therefore infer that a person will fit into that category of job for which he has been qualified (barring exceptions).

For high qualifications the 5th house has to be strong and Moon and Mercury should be well placed, with mutual aspect.

For the economists Sun, Mercury combinations with Jupiter in strength are required. For aesthetic activities like film actors, directors, artists, Venus should be strong with Mercury and Rahu. Majority of people with average education fit into the routine clerical and other jobs.

Mars, Saturn, Rahu Moon combinations give engineering/Medical education.
Electrical field is represented by Venus and Mars. Ketu represents electronic media. Saturn represents Earth, mines, minerals and petroleum and leather

When 2nd and 5th houses and their lords are afflicted the person has little or no education.

Thus Vedic astrology helps to determine whether a person will have good education, if yes what kind of education, up to what age he will study, whether he will go abroad for higher studies etc.

Vedic astrology indicates many yoga’s which give special type of education to people. There is Budhaditya yoga which goes to make statisticians, Bankers, MBA’s and charted accountants, Sangeeta Vidhya yoga of Musicians, sanyasa yoga of saints etc
 
Since the fortune of an individual is not dependant on education these two should not be confused.
