Article 192

Looking at another variation, if benefic exalted Sun is placed in the first house in Aries with Mercury, a combination of Mars and Jupiter is placed in the ninth house in Sagittarius and benefic Moon is placed in the fifth house in Leo, the native may become a police officer or an army officer. If benefic Venus is placed in the third house in Gemini and benefic Saturn is placed in the sixth house in Virgo, the native may become a police officer. On the other hand, if benefic Venus is placed in the twelfth house in Pisces and benefic Saturn is placed in the eighth house in Scorpio, the native may become an army officer, an air force officer or a naval officer, depending on the finer factors, overall horoscope and running times.

The term ‘finer factors’ in this context means the placements of various planets in various nakshatras and navamshas, within their respective signs. The term ‘running times’ in this context means planetary periods commonly known as Mahadashas.

Benefic exalted Sun in the first house can bless the native with good results related to children. Male natives having this placement may be duly capable of producing healthy and strong children. Their children may prove assets for them, they may achieve success and they may bring good name to these natives. Such placement of Sun may bless the native with good bonding between him and his children. As a result, the native may do a lot for his children and they may also do a lot for the native.

For instance, if Jupiter is placed in the fifth house of this horoscope in Leo, the native may have a troubled relationship with his father, though he may not lose his father at young age. Looking at another variation, if Jupiter is placed in the twelfth house in Pisces, the native may get separated from his father during young age, on account of various reasons, depending on his overall horoscope.

Considering another probability, if a malefic combination of Jupiter and Mars is placed in the eighth house in Scorpio, the native may lose his father to death, before the age of 20; unless there are strong grace saving factors in his horoscope. Looking at one such factor, if benefic Moon is placed in the ninth house of this horoscope in Sagittarius, the equation may become somewhat better. At the same time, if Venus is placed in the third house in Gemini, the equation may improve further. Hence the native may not lose his father before his age of 20 though his father may go through several problems which may be related to his health, profession, finances and/or overall wellbeing.

Such malefic combination generally doesn’t delay the marriage a lot on its own and it takes pleasure in breaking marriages. This combination may prove more troublesome for male natives than female natives. This is because Venus is the general signifier of marriage and wife for males whereas Jupiter is the general signifier of marriage and husband for females. Since Venus rules the seventh house in horoscopes with Aries ascendant, it becomes the specific signifier of marriage for males as well as females. It means Venus is the general as well as specific signifier of marriage for male natives, in this case.

Hence a male native may witness one, two or three broken marriages due to this troublesome combination, and exalted Sun may play its due role in breaking such marriages. However, if there are grace saving factors in his horoscope, he may settle in second or even first marriage, despite the problems caused by this combination. For example, if benefic Moon is placed in the seventh house of this horoscope in Libra and benefic Saturn is placed in the tenth house in Capricorn, the native may be able to settle in his second marriage. If the running times are also favourable, the native may be able to save even his first marriage, though he may face serious issues during the early years of such marriage.

If the native is female, the placement of Jupiter becomes important. Suppose in the same horoscope, exalted Jupiter is placed in the fourth house in Cancer. In such case, the combined effect of Jupiter, Saturn and Moon may reduce the number as well as quantum of problems in her marriage. As a result, the native may be able to save her first marriage despite problems during early years, unless the rest of her horoscope and running times are not in opposition to this result. For instance, if malefic Rahu is placed in the first house in Aries along with Sun, Mars, Venus and Mercury; and malefic Ketu is placed in seventh house with Moon, the equation may change. The native in this case may witness more than one broken marriage, depending on the finer factors and running times.

Apart from that, such malefic combination of exalted Sun, Mars, Venus and Mercury in the first house may create problems related to childbirth as well as native’s relationship with his children, depending on his overall horoscope. Such malefic combination can also affect the health as well as lifespan of the native in a negative manner. Hence when the overall horoscope is also troublesome, the native may die before the age of 50, 40 or even 30, depending on his overall horoscope.

 

One the other hand, if Saturn is placed in the fourth house in Gemini, Rahu is placed in the ninth house in Scorpio, Ketu is placed in the third house in Taurus and exalted Venus is placed in the first house in Pisces with Mars and Moon, the native may become a revenue officer. Likewise, the native may achieve success in other professions, depending on his overall horoscope.

Benefic exalted Sun in the second house can also bless the native with money and assets through disputes and the same placement can also render good results through court decisions. Taking an example, suppose a combination of Sun and Mercury is placed in the second house of a horoscope in Aries, benefic exalted Mars is placed in the eleventh house in Capricorn, benefic Moon is placed in the fourth house in Gemini and exalted Venus is placed in the first house in Pisces.

In this case, the native may witness benefits through inheritance and such benefit may come through a court decision. It means the division of native’s ancestral property may face dispute and such dispute may be settled by a court decision which may benefit the native. Depending on his overall horoscope, such native may also benefit through the purchase of a disputed property. The native may buy such property at cheap price as there may be an ongoing legal dispute attached to it. Once the native purchases such property, the dispute may get settled and the native may make significant or big profit from such deal, depending on his overall horoscope.

Taking another example, suppose a malefic combination of exalted Sun, Mercury and Venus is placed in the second house of a horoscope in Aries. Such combination may create various types of problems related to the marriage of the native and the quantum of such problems may be much more for a male native. This is because Venus is the general signifier of marriage for male natives and Mercury is the specific signifier of marriage for male as well as female natives since it rules the seventh house in horoscopes with Pisces ascendant.

Such combination may not delay the marriage of the native on its own and it may rather take pleasure in creating problems once the native has got married. If the rest of the horoscope is not supportive for marriage, the native may witness one or two broken marriages, after suffering from serious problems in such marriages. Looking at a probability, if benefic Moon is placed in the seventh house of this horoscope in Virgo and a benefic combination of Jupiter and Mars is placed in the first house in Pisces, the native may be able to save his first marriage despite problems.

Such problems may be more in case of male native whereas they may be less in case of female native. This is because Jupiter is the general signifier of marriage and husband for females and it is engaged in a benefic combination with Mars in the first house of this horoscope. Hence a female native with this type of horoscope may face some problems in the early years of her marriage and she may settle after that. A male native with this type of horoscope may face more problems through he may also be able to get through them if the running times and the rest of his horoscope is supportive.

Looking at another probability, suppose the recent placements of Moon, Jupiter and Mars are annulled. Suppose a malefic combination of Rahu and Jupiter forms Guru Chandal Yoga in the sixth house of this horoscope in Leo and a malefic combination of Moon and Ketu forms Grahan Yoga in the twelfth house in Aquarius. In this case, both male as well as female native may witness serious problems related to marriage. The native may witness two or three broken marriages on account of disputes, arguments and other problems, depending on the rest of his/her horoscope as well as on the running times.

Malefic exalted Sun in the second house can also trouble the native with financial problems and such problems may aggravate if his overall horoscope also supports such problems. Taking an example, suppose malefic Sun is placed in the second house of a horoscope in Aries, a malefic combination of Ketu and Mars is placed in the twelfth house in Aquarius and Rahu is placed in the sixth house in Leo. In this case, the native may face financial tightness or financial crisis, many times in his life or throughout his life, depending on the rest of horoscope.

The native may have to spend a lot of money on account of diseases, unfortune incidents and other problems, depending on his overall horoscope. Though the planetary combination mentioned in this example may not cause much direct damage to native’s profession, it may cause significant/serious damage to his finances. It means that though the native may earn well if the rest of his horoscope is supportive, he may still not be able to save much, as he may keep losing money on account of one problem or another. Such problems may be related to his family members in most cases. For instance, the native may have to spend a lot of money towards medical treatment of his family members from time to time.

 

Taking an example for female native, suppose benefic exalted Sun is placed in the third house of a horoscope in Aries, Mercury is placed in the fourth house in Taurus and benefic Jupiter is placed in the second house in Pisces. The seventh house is either vacant or it is occupied by benefic planets. In this case, the native may get married at proper age and she may witness a good marriage, unless sun or Jupiter is afflicted by malefic planets.

It should be noted that in both these cases, if Mercury is placed with Sun in the third house, the natives may face problems. This is because Mercury is partly benefic and partly malefic for horoscopes with Aquarius ascendant. Hence the malefic part of Mercury may cause affliction to Sun, thereby creating problems in marriage. However, such problems should be manageable as long as Venus/Jupiter are strong and healthy in case of male/female native. Since Mercury is only partly malefic and Sun is stronger than Mercury in Aries, this combination may not cause serious problems in marriage, on its own. The concept of planets exhibiting tendencies to be benefic or malefic on the basis of the houses they rule in a horoscope has been explained in the book ‘Gemstones – Magic or Science? (Revised Edition)’.

For instance, if Saturn is placed in the first house of this horoscope in Aquarius, a combination of Jupiter and Moon is placed in the tenth house in Scorpio and Mars is placed in the eighth house in Virgo, the native may become a politician. Such native may engage in politics and he may achieve very good amount of success through this field. Depending on the finer factors and running times, the native may also become an actor during early years of his career and he may later join politics.

Looking at another probability, suppose the recent placements of Saturn, Mars, Moon and Jupiter are annulled. Suppose a benefic combination of Mas and Jupiter is placed in the tenth house of this horoscope in Scorpio and Saturn is placed in the fourth house in Taurus. In this case, the native may engage in a business. He may earn a lot of money through busines and he may also achieve recognition and fame. Depending on the finer factors and running times, the native may engage in a job during early years of his career, he may quit the job after some years and he may start a business which may bring profits.
