Debilitated Venus in Third House
When debilitated Venus is placed in the third house in a horoscope, Cancer rises in the ascendant. Debilitated Venus is benefic in the third house in most cases though it may turn malefic in some cases. This may happen when Venus is afflicted by malefic planets, such as through conjunction and/or aspects. As the number of malefic planets and the strengths of such planets increase, Venus may become more malefic.
Since Venus is weak due to debilitation, it may become easy for malefic planets to add negativity to Venus. If debilitated Venus is afflicted by one or more than one malefic planet in the third house, it may turn significantly or highly malefic. Apart from that, the overall theme of horoscope having such debilitated Venus can also turn it malefic in some cases, when such theme is malefic. The concept of benefic planets turning malefic due to influences of malefic planets has been explained in Manglik Dosh section of the book ‘Match Making and Manglik Dosh (Revised Edition)’.
