Strength of the lord
The Moon is uccha at 3° Taurus (Vrishabha) and neecha at 3° Scorpio (Vrischika). In Shravana the Moon is in Capricorn (Makara), neither uccha nor neecha. It is calm and practical here, which helps careful career choices. Capricorn (Makara) is ruled by Saturn, so a strong Saturn helps too.
Your nakshatra shows your nature, but the 10th bhava shows your work. The 10th lord's placement and strength shape career growth, and planets in the 10th bhava often point to the field.
