The combustion effect given by Sun to Mercury when a combination of them is placed in the first house of a horoscope in the sign of Libra is not very strong and hence Mercury may not lose much of its power due to combustion, in this situation. This is due to the reason that Sun is debilitated in the sign of Libra and hence it gets weak due to such debilitation. Such debilitated Sun is not capable of burning out much strength of Mercury and hence combust Mercury placed in the first house of a horoscope in the sign of Libra may still retain much of its original strength. It means that when a combination of combust Mercury and debilitated Sun is placed in the first house of a horoscope in the sign of Libra, the good or bad results given by this combination are likely to be controlled by Mercury and not by Sun. To simplify, if benefic combust Mercury and benefic debilitated Sun are placed in the first house of a horoscope in the sign of Libra, the combination is net positive and these benefic results are likely to reflect under the command of combust Mercury and not under the command of debilitated Sun.

If however a combination of benefic combust Mercury and malefic debilitated Sun is placed in the first house of a horoscope in the sign of Libra, the combination is still likely to be net positive in results. Though debilitated Sun is malefic in this case, it may not afflict much damage to benefic combust Mercury as Mercury is stronger than Sun and hence it can control such debilitated Sun even after receiving combustion as well as affliction through it. However if malefic combust Mercury is placed in the first house of a horoscope in the sign of Libra along with benefic debilitated Sun, the combination is likely to be net negative on the similar grounds. Malefic combust Mercury being stronger than benefic debilitated Sun may control the net effect of this combination and hence this combination may become negative. In the last possible case, when a combination of malefic combust Mercury and malefic debilitated Sun is placed in the first house of a horoscope in the sign of Libra, the combination will be net negative and the malefic results produced by this combination are likely to be controlled by combust Mercury and not by debilitated Sun.

When a benefic combination of debilitated Sun and combust Mercury is placed in the first house of a horoscope in the sign of Libra, it can bless the native with good results related to marriage, profession, authority, fame and many other types of good results depending on the overall tone of his horoscope.

For example, if a benefic combination of debilitated Sun and combust Mercury is placed in the first house of a horoscope in the sign of Libra, benefic Venus is placed in the third house of this horoscope in the sign of Sagittarius along with benefic Moon; and benefic Mars is placed in the fifth house of this horoscope in the sign of Aquarius along with benefic Saturn, the native may engage in the field of event management.
