NOTE: APART FROM FUNCTIONAL MALEFICS AS ABOVE,RAHU AND KETU ARE FUNCTIONAL MALEFICS FORALL ASCENDANTS. .r.Weak planets\are those planets which are combust, in their

signs of debilitation, in the state of infancy/oid age, placed industhanas (6th, 8th and 12th houses), tn their signs of debilitation~naYamsaaetd in the mooltrikona sign of a planet weak on thegrounds mentioned above.

Afflicting planets are Rahu, Ketu and respective functionalmalefics for various ascendants. Afflicted planets are thoseplanets which have close conjunction/aspect of afflicting planets...When two planets or a planet and midpoint of a particular househave longitudinal difference between the conjunction/aspectformed less than five degreees, the conjunction/aspect isconsidered close. The impact of affliction is greater on weakplanets than the planets which are well placed and strong.

The above background, will help you in understanding theimpact of planetary influences more precisely and in a muchbetter way.

IMPACT

The Sagittarius and Leo ascendants are better as apart fromRahu and Ketu the only functional malefic is the Moon. Thetransit conjunctions of the Moon with natal positions are moreoften but short lived as they take just a few h'ours in separation.The Gemini ascendant is best as it does not have anyfunctional malefic other than Rahu and Ketu. Similarly, Aries

• and Libra ascendants have Mercury only as functional maleficapart from Rahu and Ketu. Transit Mercury takes just twoor three days in separation whenever it forms close maleficconjunctions with or aspect to natal positions. The problems,therefore, are short-lived.

On the other hand see the Cancer ascendent. Here, apartfrom slow moving Rahu and Ketu, the slow moving planetsSaturn and Jupiter become functional malefics. Wheneverthese four planets form transit conjunctions/aspects, they arel'1ng lived and leave scars.

IMPACT OF ASCENDING SIGNS

INTRODUCTION

Identifying impact of aSl'f'nding (rising) signs is one of thevery important fields of horo« opu roadlllg. The characteristicsof the lord of the rising sign fructify in full depending upon thestrength of the lord of the rising lign, This is more so if amooltrikona aiufI " ..,." in till"'" ""dunt, If the sion Capricornrises m tho nSlI'I"I.II,t and :.,'!IIIIIIS utterly weak and afflicted,it will nut affoct the lungovlty badly, lhe reason IS the mainimp.ct of the planet pertains to ita mooltrikona sign. In caseAquariUS rises in the ascendant and Saturn is weak and badlyafflicted. it is a drawback for the longevity of the native inaddrtion to the poor physical development of the native formaking him industrious.

Before we proceed further, let us understand a fewpreliminaries. Under the Systems' Approach, propounded by theauthor. the horoscope reading is only done with reference tothe rising si'JlI i.e. the ascendant. The functional nature of theplanets IS dc..uted on the basis of placement of their mooltrikonasruns. Cancer is considered as mooltrikona sign of the Moon.The functional malefics are those planets whose mool-trikonasigns fall in the sixth, eighth or twelfth houses. All otherplanets are treated as functional benefics. Based on this, the

functional malefics for various ascendants are-as under:- ., .1J.Jl~1 r.ASCENDANT FUNCTIONAL MALEFICS~

The real pitiable condition is of Taurus, Virgo and Piscesascendants. Here, apart from Rahu and Ketu, three otherplanets become functional malefics. The unfavourable incidentsIn life are more frequent. Gravity is dependent on the natalweak points. The Sun, Venus and Mercury are generally inclose proximity.

In the case of Virgo and Pisces ascendants the Sun is oneof the functional malefics and there are more chances of itsafflicting Venus or Mercury or both. For Taurus ascendantVenus is a functional malefic and may afflict the Sun andMorcury in addition to any other planetls) in a particular nativity.

For Capricorn ascendant the Sun is a functional maleficIn addition to Jupiter, Rahu and Ketu. Here again the chances ofthe Sun afflicting a few planets are comparatively more.

For Scorpio and Aquarius ascendants, the fast movingplanets are functional malefics. Here the problems created dueto transit afflictions are frequent but short lived. The practicalapplicability of these concepts have been amply illustrated inthe undermenrioned books:

1. Systems' Approach for Interpreting Horoscopes2. How 10 ~Jtudy Divisional Charts

1~ 3. How to Indentify Significant Events

I am taking up the discussion on the peculiarities of variousascendants in this book.

When my article on this subject was pub'11shed in one ofthe astrological journals, one reader raised the following points.

a) That the Systems' Approach is in clear departure fromthe dicta of the ancients.

b) The lord of the asdt. for any native cannot and must notbe a malefic for the native.The Sun and the Moon are exempted from AshthamaDosha.As the Sun represents so many significant things in lifeIt could not be termed as malefic.

e) Exalted and Vargottama planets do not work as malefic.

Apart from the above, the reader quoted some classical andmodern commentators and discussed the charts presented byme on the basis of derivatives used by the modern

commentators. While I have never entered into an argumentwith those who have blocked their minds for developmentalexperiences and reasearch based case studies, for the benefitof those seeking truth and validity of the divine science,'humbly, I state that I am open for inclusion of any validsuggestions in the Systems' Approach. I now take up variousobservations and give once again the rationale behind' theSystems' Approach in the following paragraphs.

MISSING LINKS

Predictive competence has been the pursuit of the seriousstudents of the divine science of astrology. Astrology is ascience which is universally applicable leaving aside the barsof caste, creed and nations. However, there were grey areaswhich posed hinderance in achieving the predicitive accuracy.

_ These r include the functional nature of planets for aparticular nativity, afflicte p anets, met odology for study ofdivisional (varga) charts, methodology for application of translf;the role of remedial measures, etc. The laCK of clarity on thesehas resulted in mushroom growth of such self-styled guides/scholars, who even themselves could not understand the gamutof astrology, both in the past and the present. Theapproaches/pradicitive tools have to undergo an empirical test .•].....•...beforeadoption.,

.'THE CLASSICAL BASE "I

"1'

The main point acting as 'the Key' it'l predictive astrology isthe functional nature of planets. Chapter 34 of Brihat ParasharHora, dealing with the Yogakaraka planets, guides us to thefunctional nature of planets for various ascendants. The salient

\ features are as under:

1. The planets with mooltrikona signs in dusthana houses, i.e.sixth, eighth or twelfth houses act as malefics for theconcerned ascendant except:

a. Jupiter for the Cancer ascendant has been stated asbenefic.

b. Mercury for the Libra ascendant.has been stated asbenefic.

c. The Sun for the Capricorn ascendant has-been termed as

neutral.d. Mars for the Scorpio ascendant has been termed as

neutral.

2. The lords ofthe second, third, eleventh and seventh houseshave been termed as rnalefics.

3. There are no hints for tho following:

a. Nature of thft Moon for the Aries and Sagittarius asdts.b. Nature 0' r.i.»: "rv for the Gemini asdt.C. Nature 0' ..dUlIl 'ur tho Virgo ascendant.

8.,'or. commenting on the salient features as mentioned.!Jove. I would like to state the indications of the housesmontioned hereunder as per Brihat Parashar Hora:-

1. Second House

2. Third House

3. Seventh House

4. Eleventh House

Wealth, food, family, death, ene­mies. metals and precious stones.Courage. servants, coborns. learn­ing, journey and parent's death.Spouse, journey, commercial pur­suits, loss of sight and death.Income, prosperity, livestock, vari­ety of consumables and daughter­in-law

There appears to be no justification or logic why the lordsof the above four houses be treated as malefic planets as theyrule desirable and good significations more in comparison tothe inauspicious or undesirable significations. There are no hintsas to when the lord of the second or seventh house will inflictdeath and when the same planet will bestow their auspicioussignifications. This had been one of the vital missing linksfor predictive accuracy.

Empirical studies undertaken by me show that the secondand seventh lords do not act as death inflicting planets exceptin the case of Saturn for the Cancer ascendant. Here Saturn islord of the eighth house as well. Rather, the lords of secondand seventh houses when functional benefics and strong,generate pleasant circumstances in life. When weak andafflicted, these planets are also amenable to sufferings as anyother planet. The lord of the third house also cannot be a deathinflicting planet for the parents if fourth and ninth houses as also

their significators, the Moon and the Sun are strong. The lordof the eleventh house is also beneficial for all ascendants except'for Pisces and Taurus ascendants.

Therefore, for interpreting the effect of planets on a morelogical basis I had formed the hypothesis that for each ascendant

.the functional malefic planets are only those planets whosemooltrikona signs fall in the sixth, eighth and twelfth houses.All other planets act as functional benefics. The maleficeffects are clearly evidenced whenever the function I m s

.are c ose y conjunct with or c10~f£!y aspect the weals.functional benefic planets or the midpoint of the houses in anativity. WhenevertheSffNrlCtional malefics in transit form~

close conjunction with or aspect the weak natal positions theygenerate unhappy events. The learned friends can test theaccuracy of this finding on their own horoscopes or on thehoroscopes of the persons with whom they are fully familiar.This is very useful for accurately finding out the nature ofevents in the nearfuture and for rectification of the birth charts.

A meticulous study of chapter 24 of Brihat Parashar Horawill show that any planet going to the eighth house suffers andthe significations ruled by the planet in question suffer badly.The indications of the eighth house have been given aslongevity, battle, enemies, forts, inheritance and the incidents ofpast and future births. Broadly, the nature of the eighth househas been termed as malefic and the close conjunction/aspectof the lord of the eighth house containing a mooltrikona signis always baneful for the planet or the midpoint of the houseinvolved in such a close conjunction/aspect. It is alwayshelpful in the interpretation of a horoscope if the nature ofplanets has been delineated on the basis of the tested hypothesismentioned in the preceding paragraph.

I have extensively dealt with the various inconsistencies,confusions and contradictions in my book, "Systems' Approachfor Interpreting Horoscopes." I have also dealt with theapproach for the Study of Divisional Charts and transit in ameaningful way in my book on this subject. As stated earlierthe indentification of functional malefics as per Systems'Approach and identifying weak and afflicted planets will bringyou so near to the accurate results and so simply that you willbe wonder struck.

i ns and aspects are effective only if theare case. By close as mentioned earlier, mean when the

10ngltudinal difference between the conjunctions/aspects isfive degrees or les~. The conjunctions/aspects amongstfunctional benefics confer name, fame & wealth whilefunctional malefics afflict and spoil the indications of houses/planet" with which they form close conjunctions/aspects.

It is with this background in view that I have now taken upthe subject, "The Impact of Ascending Signs." Withoutblindly accepting what the version of Brihat Parashar Hora incirculation says. I would seek the indulgence of learned readersin testing the truth of this dicta. The present version may haveincorrect record of the shlokas or interpolations but I certainlydo not doubt and disbelive the wisdon of the seers.

The authenticity of the Brihat Parashar Hora and otherclassical commentaries cannot be vouched for inclusion ofinterpolations and it is a well known fact that the SO calledclassical texts and commentaries are not the completedocumentation of the principles enunciated by the propoundingMaharishis. All of them were recorded at a date much later thantheir propagation. Several confusions, contradictions andinconsistencies have crept into the available texts.

Perfection in predictions can be' achieved by anyone learningand practising astrology with the method of science. Themethod of science is recording and analysing the observationsbased on the hints available in the classical and modernliterature. forming testable hypothesis for logical questions andadopting the principles which stand the test of time. Therefore,banking solely on the available classical texts might not beconducive for the development of the divine science. The

, pursuit of the method of science does not mean denouncinethe ancient sages. Rather an attempt IS being made to weedout the interpolations.

The principle of identifying the functional nature of planetson the positional placement of the mooltrikona signs of theplanets. render null and void the following prevalent, so calledclassical principles.

!' r·That the benefic planets owninqkendras (angular houses) :l" turn malefics.

That the second and seventh lords act as maraka planets(death inflicting planets).

That the planets placed in the seventh and second housesact as marakas.

That the planets associated with the lords of the second andseventh houses act as marakas.

That the results of transit should be studied from the natalMoon.

That the transit can be applied in isolation.

That the planet Saturn, except in the case of ascendantsruled by it and Venus, does not act as benefic.

That the lord of the ascendant always proves beneficial forthe native. Venus as lord of Taurus ascendant and Mars aslord of the Scorpio ascendant as per Systems' Approachbecome functional malefics for the native because of theirmooltrikona signs falling in the sixth house.

To sum up, a systematic approach for analysing horoscopeson the basis of functional nature of planets, close/exactconjunctions/aspects together with reading natal charts inconjunction with transit position of operating planets withreference to the ascendant and truatu«: the degrees rising in theascendant as the middle point of ai, : i .. I,;"I " s.JIlve Infallibleresults.. which establish the divine science of astrology as asuper-science. The present disbelief in astrology is becauseof the continuous dependence of Ill! «Iurn savants on the recordof classical principles which has t» , II full of interpolations/

, omissions due to the time "dP between the propounding time, and the recording time of the said principles. To establish it as

a science we have to demonstrate to the world the observationsrecorded by way of case studies based on the universalapplication of only the valid classical principles. We have tomake a creative contribution to the enrichment of the divinescience.

weak planet or planets or mid point of a house do causesufferings with regard to the significations ruled by the saidplanet/house. The matter will be clarified in the succeedingparagraph.

ROLE OF PLANETS

A planet plays its role in the following ways:-

As a natural significator for various things.As a lord of the house to protect and promote thesignifications of the house ruled.

c) Its relationship with other planetary configurations ina nativity.

The strength of a planet governs the role of the planet for(a) and (b) above in protecting and promoting the house andsignifications ruled. Thy fynctignal nature of the planetgoverns the role as at Ie) above. ./•

Regarding the "Neechbhanga Raj Yoga" it is not comingfrom the propounding father but has found its place in thesubsequent classical commentaries like phaladipika, etc. TheSystems' Approach does not believe in this concept and treatsthe debilitated planet as a weak planet as classified by BrihatParashar Hora Shastra, Uttrakalarnrita, etc.

HOW TO ANALYSE A HORO- \SCOPE IN THREE MINUTES

A National Conference on Futurology and Astrology wasorganised by Bharat Nirman in New Delhi in December. 1993. Iwas invited to deliver a talk on the subject of TECHNIQUES.OF PREDICTIONS. Well, while there are various techniquesincluding application of Parashari System, Jaimini System. TajakSystem, etc., I chose the subject "HOW TO ANALYSE AHOROSCOPE IN THREE MINU rES". I am sharing my viewswith readers which will help them in their efforts of helping thehumanity with minimum use of time. I will discuss the matterIn a step-wise manner.

STEP I

Good placement but weak, being in old age.Good placement, bright and own sign.Bad placement, combust and in infancy.Good placementGood placement, conjunct with functional beneficVenus.Good placement, own sign but afflicted byclose conjunction of Jupiter.Good placement, close aspect of malefic Ketu

Noting down the strength of functional malefics is also necessarybecause as explained earlier, every planet has many roles to play.

STEP VII

ASSESS LONGEVITY

If a Mooltrikona sign rises in the ascendant pay specialattention to the longevity by seeing the strength of planets andthe functional nature of the operating planets i.e. the main andsub-period lords. Most of the planets being weak and severeafflictions to the ascendant or to the ascendant lord withoperating period of functional malefics give short life.Similarly placed planets with operating period of functionalbenefics give middle span of life.

Weak planets keep the significations to a lower level,if unafflicted. Severely afflicted planets cause tragedies or fataldiseases. The operating periods reduce/increase the impact.Pay special attention to the transit strength of operating planets.

STEP VIII

ASTRAL REMEDIES

Two way astral remedies are suggested. Charities orpropitiatory methods for functional malefics. Strengtheningmeasures for weak functional benefic planets throughKAVACH made of mystical numbers, Colour and Gem Therapy

SAMPLE HOROSCOPE

. ASCENDANT

.. I I

The sign Cancer rises, which is ruled by the Moon. TheMoon is personified as a Queen in the planetary cabinet. Withstrong, well placed and unafflicted Moon, the native was bornin an affluent family.

SUN

The Sun rules the house of status and is well placedand unafflicted. The Sun gave a senior position to the native ina governmental organisation.

MARS

The weakness of Mars created many tense momentsin his professional career. During the sub-period of Mars in themain period of Venus he could not be promoted inspite ofthe authorities intending to promote him. The circumstanceschanged at the eleventh hour. The native's, dynamism wasthereby reduced. '

MERCURY

The good and unafflicted placement of Mercury indicateshis intelligence, initiatives. good communication skills and sharpintellect. This is one of the reasons of his acquiring his presentstatus.

JUPITERc, ~ 1

Good placement of Jupiter indicates and has given graceful ', and pleasant personality. He has been blessed with children

~J including a son. He enjoys good physical health with slightf' problem of hypertension because of Jupiter's conjunction (as a

functional malefic) with Venus, the lord of the fourth house

ruling the heart and its functioning.

VENUS

Strong but afflicted. Due to affliction gives mental tensionin its operating period which generated the problem ofhypertension. Strong Venus rules the fourth house and givescomforts, pleasant disposition of wife and affluent assets. Gavegood education in the fields of finance and law ruled by Venus.

SATURN

Rules the eighth house and the longevity in particular asits mooltrikona sign is placed in the eighth house. Eighth houserules inheritance, longevity and marital tie. The good placementof strong Saturn enables it to bear the affliction of functionalmalefic Ketu to a large extent. During the operating periods ofSaturn and Ketu some amount of tension generates for thesignifications of the Saturn in general and eighth house inparticular.

RAHU

Occupies its sign of exaltation in the eleventh house. Thisgives material affluence and as it is unafflicted and Quite awayfrom the mid point of the eleventh house, there are very remotechances of a sizable loss. However, in its operating periodsit delays and denies the fulfilment of desires.

KETU

It does not form any close conjunction/aspect other thanthe Saturn, discussed above, under the planet Saturn.

GENERAL

;Jt, During transit, whenever, functional malefics form closeconjunction/aspect with the weak/afflicted natal positions,which are the Sun,Mars and Saturn in the sample horoscope,problems with regard to the significations ruled by theseplanets, may be expected to be triggered.

The author is confident that the above example will providethe students with an extremely simple, yet accurate, method ofcomprehension of the horoscopes being studledbv him. Further

ARIES ASCENDANTThe natives having Aries as ascendant are inherently agile,

courageous, intelligent, impatient, leaders, fighters, industriousand enterprising. They have abundant amount of energy andare untiring. These Qualities show their true impact dependingupon the strength of Mars in the nativity. Aries is themooltrikona sign of Mars and therefore Mars represents thenative fully. Apart from Rahu and Ketu, the only functionalmalefic is Mercury. Budhaditiva Yoga i.e. combination of theSun and Mercury signifying extra-ordinary intelligence, do notshow positive results for the native. An Aries native withdeep combust Mercury means that the Sun forms closeconjunction with the functional malefic, Mercury, and getsafflicted. Such natives have weak digestion, are not sharp andare impulsive. Since Aries born are men of deeds they believeless in astrology.

The inherent Qualities of the Aries sign make the nativeaffluent, authoritative and leader in the armed forces. Theinfluence of Saturn turns them towards engineering andentrepreneurship. They earn lot of wealth by persistent efforts.The natives excel in the fie los governed by the planet or mid­point of a house forming close conjunction or aspect with astrong Mars in the nativity. The transit unfavourable influencesare less. The persistent unfavourable influences with longrepercussions are only due to the impact of transit Rahu-Ketuforming close conjunction/aspect with weak natal points.Transit unfavourable influences generated by Mercury are short

. lived as Mercury is a fast moving planet and its conjunctionseparates in a day or two.

The Moon rules the fourth house for Aries ascendant andhence a strong and well placed Moon bestows comforts ofaffluent parents, education, property and vehicles. Theassociation of Mars and the Moon creates auspicious resultsand blesses the native with status in the govt. The associationof the Sun with Mars fructifies the impact of intelligence andhelps the person in realising his high ambitions.

They love adventures. Jupiterhas its mooltrikona sign in the ninth house which makes thesepersons practising the principles of religion i.e. blesses thenatives with divine Qualities of kindness, generosity, honestyand protector whenever Jupiter forms close conjunction withMars, ascendant and other natal points. Finally, Saturn the lordof the tenth house, has its mooltrikona sign in the house ofincome and fulfilment of desires. This keeps the Aries nativesalways on the move as influence of Saturn without the positiveinfluence of Jupiter keeps the person always on the move toearn more and more and does not allow the native to becomecontent. Persons born with Aries rising with the Sun in Virgo,Scorpio or Pisces suffer from disorders of stomach andunhappiness from progeny in case Jupiter, too, is weak. Thereare tragedies with regard to these significations if the weakSun, Mars and or Jupiter form close conjunction with the Rahu­Ketu axis.

The weakness of almostall the planets resulted in poor positive contribution of thefunctional benefics. The weakness of Mars resulted in physicalweakness. The weakness of the Sun and the Moon resulted inpoor resources of parents, problems in education andobstructions in proper development of intelligence. Theplanets Saturn, Jupiter and Venus suffer from the close aspectof Ketu. The child during the opening main period of Mars andfollowing main period of Rahu lacked both physical and mentaldevelopment. He was suffering from epileptic fits and therewere obstructions in schooling. The astral help suggestedwas for strengthening of weak functional benefics by wayof a Kavach and propitiating the malefics, Rahu and Ketu.

Because of the weakness of majority of the planets includingthe Moon, the matters pertaining to prosperity to parents alsoreceived a set back with the onset of Rahu's main period.

During the main period of Venus.the native completed his engineering education. In theopening main period of afflicted Sun, the native found itdifficult to get a suitable job posing uncertainity. Whenever,the Sun is closely conjunct with Rahu, one gets the problem ofhypertension early in life. In this case as well, Rahu's afflictionto the Sun created lot of tension and difficulty in getting a job\nspite of native's being professionally qualified. This delayed'marriage of the native, However, powerful combinations in the'chart fructified to their extent in more conducive period.

Enjoying to the fullestextent is the aim of their life. They are analytical in approachas the fifth house is ruled by Mercury. The fourth house,ruling inclinations, ruled by the planet Sun, determines theirapproach in life. The sign Aquarius falling in the tenth housemakes these people technical and if the other planets are strongthe native may pursue an engineering course.

Saturn's transit is not inauspicious inany of the houses as Saturn is a yogakaraka planet for theTaurus ascendant. Rather, whenever transit Saturn formsclose conjunction/aspect with strong natal planets or mid-pointof a house, it triggers a happy incident/event signified by thehouse of such a conjunction/aspect, planet and the housewhere mooltrikona sign of the planet involved isplaced.

As Venus is a functional malefic and the chances of itsforming close conjunction with the Sun and Mercury are more,

Rather Taurus nativesborn in the last quarter of the year, around sun-set time, are theworst affected in their marital harmonious relations and progenicmatters.

Thefourth and fifth lords have exchanged position and have recoveredfrom some of their apparent weakness of being in the state ofinfancy and combustion, respectively, due to good placement.Mercury's mutual close aspect with Saturn blessed the nativewith post-graduate professional qualification. The favourableplacement of otherwise weak Sun blessed the native with highlyplaced father and affluent assets. The lord of the house ofInitiatives, the Moon, being close to the mid point of the thirdhouse, gave him initiative for business though along with somedifficulties in the beginning. The functional malefic, Mars, doesnot form close conjunction with the mid point of the house itoccupies but aspects its own house (twelfth). None of theplanets is in its sign of debilitation in the navamsa.

Rahu is closely conjunct with thefunctional malefic Mars in the seventh house and aspects thesignificator for wife, Venus, closely. Jupiter's close conjunctionwith the midpoint of the eighth house in its own mooltrikonasign is indicative of inheritance, long life and unearned wealthin life.

The strong position of furctional benefics, conjunctionsand aspects blessed the native with affluent parents,comforts, brilliant political career from very young age. Thetenth lord is exalted in navamsa and makes for the deficiencycreated by the Sun in debilitated navamsa. The native enjoyedposition of Chief Minister for more than adecade before joiningthe Central Cabinet.

The affliction to Venus and conjuction of functional maleficsin the seventh house, however, gave health problems to wife.Such a situation is very helpful in weakening the position ofenemies and is rather an asset to the persons in the political fieldas it destroys the opponents at their own without any efforton the part of the native. The strong position of the lord ofthe fifth and third houses has helped him in managing hispolitical position for nearly two decades very tactfully andholds a promising future for the native.

Besides Jupiter, the planets outside the grip of Rahu­Ketu are the Sun and Venus. Venus becomes weak due to;.placement in the sixth house as well as due to being in the stateof infancy. The Moon and Saturn occupy their signs ofdebilitation in navamsa.

The native had the main period of the exalted fourth lordfrom the fourth year of life. Due to affliction to Mercury,despite its exaltation and the mutual aspect formed betweenthe Moon and Mercury, its dasa could not prove to be of greathelp to the father. There was restricted material prosperity butstatus-wise no growth.

Apart from the weakness of the Moon, the other areas ofweakness are the planets Jupiter and Saturn as they are in thestate of infancy.

The sign Cancer is a mute, negative, watery and fruitfulsign. Its lord is the Moon, which is a royal planet. It signifiesgrace and status. With Cancer rising, the Moon being ina dusthana, one has sickly constitution, unpleasant appearanceand mental unrest.

Cancerians are of volatile nature. There are two reasonsfor this. Firstly, the Moon becomes weak quite often either inPakshabalaor by going to inauspicious places from the ascendant,being debilitated or combust or joining the mooltrikona signsruled by weak planets. Secondly, the house of initiatives is ruledby Mercury which also remains weak, oftenly. In case Mercuryis weak and/or afflicted, the initiatives of the native do notproduce results resulting in change of ventures.

The persons born under this sign suffer constantly frommental maladies, physical ailments of breast, chest, heart,epigastric region, stomach and digestive region whenever theMoon is weak and/or afflicted.

Cancerians are imaginative, peace loving, good hosts,moody and humourous. They are generous, helpful, emotional,dependent and are full of concern both for self and others. Thesign being royal, there are many happy events in their lives.They are very sensitive and restless.

The Moon, Mars, the Sun, Venus and Mercury arefunctional benefics. Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu are functionalmalefics for Cancerians. A strong Moon blesses them withaffluence and recognition. A strong Sun blesses them withstatus. Because of the repetitive transit weakness of Mercuryand weak natal Mercury it bothers them on account of miseriesto younger brothers and sisters as also on their own initiatives.

A strong and well placed Venus blesses them with affluentandreputed parents, vehicular and residential comforts, goodeducation, good family life and pleasures in life. A strongJupiter blesses them with good physical health while a strongSaturn blesses them with long life. A strong Mars blessesCancerians with well placed father and executive authority.

In their transit movement, similarity, wheneverthey form close conjunctions or aspects with weak natal planetsor mid points of the weak houses they trigger unfavourableevents.

Balance dasa of Mars: 3 years 19 days.

The lords of the second, third and tenth houses in close• conjunction are placed in the sixth house. Their conjunction is

auspicious but combustion of Mars and Mercury and placementin the sixth house turns the conjunction weak. The lord ofthe fourth house retains some power because of its placementin a trine and its being in the exalted navamsa in spite of its beingin the old age state. Saturn is closely conjunct with the mid­point of the seventh house. Jupiter and Ketu's placement inthe seventh house is inauspicious but is quite away from themid point. This type of placement triggers unfavourable eventsdue to transit conjunctions/aspects concerning with theissues signified by the house in question.

The native is emotional and mentally troubled. Weakness oftho Sun, Rahu's close aspect to the fourth lord, Venus, andSaturn's close aspect to the mid point of the ninth and fourthhouses snatched the patronage of father as he died when thenative was unmarried and was in her 25th year of age. Thenative was involved emotionally and entered in a maritalwedlock for finding security. Affliction of lord of the eighthhouse to the seventh house though ruled by Saturn itself andweakness of the second house saw number of problems inmarital life including the husband's involvement in scandles andcriminal suits. Rahu's close aspect to Venus robbed the nativeof assets, domestic happiness and happiness through parents.The feeble mutual close aspect of the Moon and Mars, however,bagged a job to the native on compassionate grounds after thedeath of her father.

The functionalmalefic Saturn afflicts the Sun by close aspect and is close tothe mid point of the ninth house. Mercury is closely conjunctwith Ketu. Yogakaraka Mars with exalted navamsa occupiesa trinial house owned by it. The functional benefics, Venus, theMoon, the Sun and Mercury enjoy placement benefit inspiteof the afflictions by functional malefics.

The native's parents as well as in-laws are affluent butmental peace is lost due to disputes connected with jointproperties of both the families. Jupiter's placement being lordof the sixth house, in the second house afflicting the lord ofthe fourth house is fully indicative of such happenings in life.The dasa in operation was also that of Venus. The native ispeace and comforts seeker and is happy on account of theavailability of the material comforts.

The affliction to the lord of the third house keeps nativeworried on account of developmental activities of her youngerbrothers. The yogakaraka Mars becomes the saviour forafflictions in the natal chart. Affliction to the Sun is indicativeof health problems to the father.

The . native has been suggested remedial measuresboth strengthening for weak and afflicted functional beneficsand propitiatory for functional rrralefics.

Theweakness of the Sun gave ill health to the native on account offevers due to tonsilitis. The second ruler of this aspects, Venus,suffers from weakness due to debilitation in navamsa. Jupiter'splacement is quite away from the mid point of the seventhhouse.

The native is emotional and shows the signs of seekingdependency. The tenth lord's close aspect to the lord of thehouse of status shows roots for working life of the native. Thefourth lord's close influence on the ascendant along with lord ofthe third house has taken the native to a graduate course inarchitecture. The fourth house rules buildings and the fourthlord, Venus, rules studies and application of artistic values.

The marital life of the native is likely to remain unsatisfactorydue to conjunction of the eighth lord to the mid point of thetwelfth house and Rahu's close aspect to the Sun, the secondlord placed in the twelfth house. The girl belongs to a well toodo family.

~P,Jr LEO ASCENDANTThe sign Leo is ruled by the planet, the Sun, signifying

intelligence, heart, male progeny, rovalitv and magnificence.This sign is fiery, positive, barren and signifies benevolence.Leo born people with weak and/or afflicted Sun in the chart faceweak health, weak digestion, malfunctioning of heart, diseaseof spine and blood, lack of stamina and strong will power andweak eyesight.

Leos are rulers, extrovert, best organisers, patient listeners,jealous, decisive, art lovers, generous, authoritative andanxious to retain and expand their domain. As the weaknessprone planet, Mercury, rules their second house ruling kingdom,their status is mostly short lived and they are always on themove to solve the problems one after the other. They arereceptive to the ideas of others but provide leadership as pertheir own conviction. They are anxious to oblige others byfavours so that they are recognised by others as royal. Theyintend to punish the guilty and rarely apologize, those whodo not surrender completely.

,. A king needs help of all specialists and cannot afford to beease loving. As such, the Moon, the planet representing easeis the functional malefic for Leo born people. The Leo bornpeople are most alert and very fast in assilnilating diversifiedactivities and problems. Mercury, the planet of analyticalfaculties, rules the second house representing concentration.

The initiatives of a king are for financial prosperity andenjoyment ruled by Venus, whose mooltrikona sign falls in thethird house.

The fifth house ruling intelligence, benevolence, generosityand justice is governed by the planet of divine grace, Jupiter.The advisors and courteers, ruled by the seventh house, aregenerally greedy and trying to secure their future. They areruled by Saturn in a Leo nativity. Yogakaraka Mars representsthe executive power of the king as the mooltrikona sign of Marsfalls in the ninth house ruling father and fortune.

Merely Leo rising is helpful to Leo borns in aSSUming"""~:.!.ipositions of power in the favourable periods with even averagestrength of planets. However, the weak and afflicted Sun andother planets mentally torture Leos as they cannot adjust withcompromising situations and are always trying to assumecontrol of the circumstances beyond control.

Exalted Sun in Leo nativities indicates highly placed fatherand success in a political career. Exalted Saturn indicatessuccessful joint ventures and spouse possessing entrepreneuralcapabilities. Exalted Mars with the support of other strongplanets gives an affluent father engaged in the professions ruledby Mars. Exalted Moon situated away from the mid point ofthe tenth house indicates significant role played by overseasin one's professional career. Exalted Jupiter with a strong Moonin its period indicates prosperity in a foreign land. ExaltedMercury indicates leadership or chief position in a Govt. Deptt.Exalted Mercury with a strong and well placed Sun blesses thenative with top level public/political office. Exalted Venus turnsthe native into a pleasure seeker leaving aside the attentionto administrative or organisational responsibilities of the native.Similarly, are to be read the results of the planets when they arein their signs of debilitation. However, the significations likelyto be promoted when the planets are exalted get a set back whenthe concerned planets arc ~abilitated and/or placed in the sixth,eighth or twelfth house.

In Rahu's sub-period in Ketu'smain period, there were sudden problems resulting in heavylosses, hypertension followed by heart disease. Financial andsocial status of the native got a setback.

The child was born in the sub-periodof the Sun in the main' period of Mercury. He died in the sameperiod.

The traditional approach could not have indicated short lifefat this native as the Moon with the so called debilitationcancelled was placed in an angular house, Jupiter was placed ina kendra, yogakaraka Mars was aspectingthe ascendant andthe lord of the ascendant, the Sun, occupied its sign ofexaltation in the ninth house.

The System's Approach, however, gives clear indication.Whenever Rahu & Ketu axis is on the mid point of the housesof their location they severely afflict six houses, two byoccupation and four by aspects. In case the lord of theascendant and the mid point of the ascendant/other houses arealso involved by way of conjunction or aspect, it becomes a caseof retarded growth and short life. The inauspicious operatingperiod. however, brings death. In this case as earlier statedit was the sub-period of weak and afflicted Sun in the mainperiod of Mercury placed in the eighth house in its sign ofdebilitation.

l VIRGO ASCENDANTI

The sign Virgo is the mooltrikona sign of the planet,. Mercury. Mercury governs nervous system, abdominal umbilical( region, bowel and intestines. It is a negative, human, earthy andf, barren sign and rules the power of analysis and discrimination.

If the sign Virgo rises and Mercury is strong and well placed,a person gets attractive personality and is charming. The weakMercury gives body with prominent veins, lack of witticism andlack of charm. The weak and afflicted Mercury causes sufferings

. through nervous breakdown, appendicitis, constipation, etc.

Their analytical nature makes Virgo borns thorough and\, critical leading to perfection. They are realistic in their

approach, weigh pros and cons carefully and are appreciative ofthe events liked by them. They are practical, fully composedand sometimes perceived to be fussy. All these depend uponthe strength and placement of Mercury in the natal chart. Theyare generally not content because environment is Quite awayfrom idealism. The usual weakness of Mercury makes Virgosfeel insecure in life. They are generally worrisome. Virgosare mostly truthful, sincere and dependable. The reason isthat the house ruling character and inclination has themooltrikona sign of the planet, Jupiter. The oft-existentweakness of Mercury makes Virgos nervous. The role played•by functional malefics in rnakinq Virgos nervous is very significant.

The planets the Sun, Saturn and Mars turn functionalmalefics besides Rahu al~j Ketu. The transit influence offunctional malefics on weak natal positions of Virgos rob themof stability and encounters them with new troublesomesituations time and again. That is why Virgos are known asnervous, fussy and appear to be or are insecure. Virgos areart lovers and artists. Mercury, their ruler, is the planet ofcommunications. Mercury, when strong, gives them art ofcommunication which helps them in entering the field ofperforming arts if Venus, too, is strong and well placed in thenativity.

A strong and well placed Moon blesses them withfulfilment of desires and good income while a strong and wellplaced Venus blesses them with advisory status and a happymarried life.

JI ',.Close conjunction of functional malefic, Saturn, with weak

natal positions generates disputes for the significations ruled byweak natal planets or the houses. Close conjunction offunctional malefic, the Sun, generates losses and expensesconnected with the weak natal positions. While a strong Marsblesses Virgos with good inheritance, its close conjunction/aspect with weak natal positions causes obstructions,accidents and violent end to the significations ruled by weakand afflicted natal positions. Apart from these conjunctions/aspects of functional malefics, the close affliction of Rahu andKetu with Mercury can cause epilepsy or paralysis while~fflict~n to Jupiter can ruin the whole life of virgos(LJ..,f ~ol.11i<-.

Venus, thoughplaced in an auspicious house becomes weak as its dispositor,the Moon, is debilitated. The debilitated Moon is in the thirdhouse in distant association with lord of the third house, Mars,and Rahu. Rahu-Ketu axis is not close to the mid point of thehouses of its location. Rahu closely aspects and afflicts Venus.Weakness and affliction of Venus told upon the level of statusand accumulation of wealth of the native.

Jupiter, the lord of the fourth house, occupies the fourthhouse in its own mooltrikona sign but is away from the mid pointof the fourth house. In such cases the strength of Jupiterpromotes the general significations of Jupiter, e.c. maleprogeny, disciplined and ethical life, sincerity and honesty. Itdoes not powerfully influence the significations of the fourthhouse where it is placed as it is quite away from the mid pointof the house of its location. Functional benefics, Mercury,Venus and the Moon, are weak while Jupiter is in strength.Whenever, a mooltrikona sign rises in the ascendant thelongevity comes into focus. In this nativity the weakness ofMercury and close affliction to the ascendant by functionalmalefic, Saturn, is indicative of middle life span. Had such aMercury been placed in a dusthana, say, the twelfth house, otherthings remaining same, the native would have had a short lifespan. The native was born in the sub-period of the functionalbenefic, well placed and weak Mercury, in the main period ofSaturn. The native also saw the main period of Mercury in life.The native pursued the course of engineering but due toweakness and affliction to the lord of the second house. rulingstatus, could not acquire higher status in life. Debilitated lordof the eleventh house kept the earnings on lower side. Thestrong lord of the fourth house helped the native acquiring thedegree of engineering. This Jupiter also blessed the native withwell behaved sons and domestic happiness.

Though due to the weakness of the Moon and affliction tothe ascendant by Saturn there were spells of mental worries tothe native, yet he generally maintained good physical health. Asthe chart did not indicate full span of life the native died of anaccident in the fifty first year of his life.

The close affliction of various houses and the Sun and theMoon by functional malefics, is clearly indicative of tragichappenings in life. The weak and afflicted fourth house alsoindicates the uncomfortable position of the parents.

Some people hold the view that those, who prescribeastral-remedial measures are incompetent to make predictions.I can only pity at their lack of power to understand. Theafflictions and weaknesses identified with the help of theSystems' Approach clearly indicate the picture as in this caseand there cannot be two opinions. The only opinion will besuffering. But such people forget and disregard MaharishiParashar, who propounded the theory of remedial measures.The preventive remedial measures provide relief from sufferingswhile remedial measures after some tragic incidence help inrehabilitation.

The placement of the Moon in the ninth house showsrelationship between income and father. The native, in suchcases, derives benefit from his/her own father. The lord of thehouse of status, though in old age, is well placed in the ninthhouse in its own non-mooltrikona sign. This is indicative ofnative acquiring position in life through the help and assistanceof father. The placement of the lord of the ascendant is alsoindicative of earnings by self effort.

Predicting future is one part of the story in case of astrologywhile remedial measures is the essence. which helps us inproviding umbrella during cloudy days .

Mercury is placed in the fifth house in closeconjunction with debilitated but functional benefic, Jupiter, andKetu. Ketu's affliction outweighs the influence of weak Jupiter.In spite of his attaining a good academic post graduate degree.in economics, native couid not find a job. First his direction waswrong and secondly when he got selected for some foreignfellowship in the field of research he could not go because ofpaucity of funds.

Though it has notgiven the results in the tenth house as affliction of the eighth lordto the tenth house is more grave, the Moon has promoted itsgeneral significations like long lived parents, education, goodmental strength and elder coborns.

The operation of inauspicious sub-periods of Mars and Rahuin the main period of weak and afflicted Jupiter and sub-periodsof combust Saturn and afflicted Mercury in the dasa of Saturnhas completely shattered the native because of successivefailures inspite of the good educational background and familycircumstances.

Rahu-Ketu axis and functionalmalefic, Mars, are closely related with the mid point of theascendant. The fourth lord is placed in the third house in thestate of infancy and the mid point of the third house is closelyaspected by Ketu. The lord of the second house is placed in thetwelfth house. The functional malefic, Saturn, is closelyafflicting the houses occupied and aspected by it. Theascendant and its lord are having severe afflictions and aredevoid of a benefic influence.

The marital life of the native is totally inharmonious.' Thenative is so much harassed in life that she tried to commitsuicide in the main period of Saturn (a functional malefic) andsub period of the Sun (another functional malefic afflicting thelord of the ascendant closely). The lord of the eleventh house,the Moon, is also badly placed in the chart. All the functionalbenefics have been rendered helpless due to weakness, afflictionsand bad placements. Though the suicide attempt of the nativedid not succeed in September, 1989, yet the chart onlypromises a middle life span. If as per the traditional theory weconsider this chart from the Moon, the chart will never indicatethe circumstances prevailing in life.

Jupiter is in its sign of debilitation in the navamsa.The lord of the eleventh house, the Moon, is in the eighth housewhich is closely aspected by Rahu. There is exchange of housesby Mars and the Moon in the nativity. The relationship of eighthlord with the lord of the eleventh house is indicative of incomefrom foreign lands. The weakness and affliction of the Moon isindicative of undesirable behaviour of friends.

The strong and unafflicted Mercury made the native anengineer, M.B.A. and highly analytical in approach. Theweakness of Jupiter and Venus were responsible for lack of totalcooperation by the spouse. During the main period of Mars thenative served in a foreign country and earned wealth. The subperiod of Jupiter in the main period of Rahu brought the nativeback to his native place. Rahu's affliction to the Moonoccasionally created obstructions in the sources of income.The weak functional benefics give benefits of comparativelylower order but whenever they are transited by functionalmalefic there is some amount of harm.

Suggested effective remedial measures for warding off evilsand generating good results in life for VIRGOS.

1. Render service to parents/parents in law and old aged needypersons.

2. Observe law of the land meticulously.

3. Be considerate to younger brothers and servants.

LIBRA ASCENDANTThe sign Libra is ruled by the planet, Venus. It is the

mooltrikona sign of Venus. It rules lumber region, skin, kidneysand bones of the lumber region. The sign Libra rising in theascendant gives magnetic personality, if Venus is fully strong.The person makes use of the body language for communicatingwith others.

If Venus is weak and/or afflicted in a Libra nativity, theperson suffers from diabetes, venereal diseases, arthritis, goutpains and renal diseases. It is a talkative, positive, airy and semi­fruitful sign. Its talkative characteristic provides the personcapacity to communicate including the use of body languageand facial expressions for making the communication moreeffective.

Its positive characteristic makes the person a contributorin place of being only a consumer. Its airy characteristic makesthe person a thinker. Its semifruitful characteristic blesses thenative with affluence and resourcefulness in life. The signLibra signifies the sense of justice, clarity, strong will power,optimism and is highly sensitive. Librans are intelligent,restless, good natured and have pleasant disposition. Theywant to win others with love and hate violence. They have keeninterest in performing and fine arts. The weakness andaffliction to Venus can turn them into a depressed, stubborn,argumentative and annoying person. Librans are cautious,confident, interested in learning, gentle, artistic and are able toclear themselves out of difficult situations.

Libra is a comparatively fortunate sign to have birth. Thelord of the sign is an affluent planet and is significator forenjoyments and comforts. It gives advisory roles in the fieldsof finance and law, makes the person life-saviour throughpractice of medicine and tremendous growth in businessactivities. The reason is that apart from Rahu and Ketu,Mercury is the only planet which acts as a functional maleficfor Librans. As Mercury is a fast moving planet, obstructionscaused by its transit over natal positions are short lived. Astrong, well placed and unafflicted Venus blesses all good

The weakness, bad placement and Ketu's affliction to thelord of the tenth house resulted in obstructed growth in careerin the dasa of the Sun. The dasa of the Moon, however, putthe things back in shape. The weakness of Venus resulted inweak health of the wife, who became diabetic in a very earlystage of life. The native belongs to an All India Service. The main

. period of Mars does not augur well for health and statusmatters. The strong position of Saturn is indicative ofsatisfactory level of assets in life. The strong position of thelord of the eleventh house, Mercury, ensures continuous inflowof good income.

The traditional approach, however, exempts Scorpioascendant from manglik dosha. Whenever Mars acts as amalefic, it causes sufferings due to violence, cuts, wounds,accidents, death, etc. In this case the native lost her husbandwhen the later was undergoing a minor surgical operation. Theweakness and bad placement of the lord of the-fourth house inassociation with presence of very powerful Manglik yogaclearly indicated disturbed marital life.

The placement of the lord of the house of status inphagyasthana (the ninth house) and of the Sun in the tenthhouse indicate employment for the native. The native isemployed in a bank and is in a position to financially supporther ownself and the family in her life as a widow,

bl3dJy placed. The real damage amounting to tragedies is whena planet is weak, badly placed and afflicted. In this case theweakness of the fourth house is taken care of to some extentQV association of the functional benefic, the Sun, with thefourth house. The lord of the ninth house, the Moon, is placedin the twelfth house. During the most of the period of the weakSaturn, her parents languished for want of resources andcomforts. But as the Saturn's dasa draws to a close during thesub period of a well placed functional benefic, Jupiter, the familyhas benefited by landed property in premium locations in ametropolitan city. The following main period is of Mercury,which is a functional benefic, is well placed and aspected anddoes not suffer from close conjunction/aspect of functionalmalefics. Good placement of Jupiter (the significator forhusband), the Sun (the secondary significator for husband) andVenus (the significator for luxuries and comforts) promisesearly and happy marriage. As already observed, the functionalmalefics harm the native only if they form close conjunction/aspect in the natal chart. The transit affliction of functionalmalefics over weak position is not as grave as natal afflictions.

Suggested effective remedial measures for warding off evilsand generating good results in life for SCORPIONS.

At birth the native was running the balance period of thefunctional malefic, Mercury, followed by the main period ofKetu. During these periods the native suffered constantly onaccount of ill health. The next main period of yogakarakaVenus, though functionally benefic, could not give tremendousrise to the native due to the weakness of Venus as it is in thestate of old age. Let us now see the factors for bad health andother aspects of life.

Rahu closely aspects the lord of the ascendant, Saturn, andafflicts the later. Functional malefics, the Moon and Mercury,jointly closely afflict Jupiter and mid point of the tenth house.The Sun and Mars are weak as they are in the state of infancy.The Moon, Mercury and Jupiter are combust. Besides, theMoon is in its sign of debilitaticn in both rasi and navamsacharts. The Sun is exalted in navamsa.

Majority of the planets are weak and afflicted, which gaveweak physical constitution, weak eyesight, liver and intestinaldisorders. The native is pursuing his studies in a foreigncountry and working on part time basis to support himself.

In 1986, when the native was a student of eleventhstandard his father asked whether his son would be successfulin the competition for Indian Administrative Service. By seeingthe planetary combinations, I just kept Quite wondering the

gap between the indications of the chart and the expectationsof the father. As the luck would have it just to pursue hisown ambition of a foreign posting in life the father unknowinglysacrificed the career of the child. The child had been studyingbrilliantly before his departure to a foreign country to accompanyhis father. This happened in the sub-periods of the Sun in thedasa of Venus. The native as of now is lost in the crowd buthas to see more troublesome periods in the sub-period ofcombust and highly afflicted Jupiter. There may be seriousobstructions in his career growth due to bad health and he islikely to return to his native place to start afresh and to toil.

, The native had main period of well placed favourable Jupiterfrom 24th year of age onwards. With the financial help fromparents, the native ventured into business of trading, went intopurification of edible oils and set up a joint venture withpal ticipation of a foreign collaborator.

During the sub-period of Rahu in the main period of Jupiter,however, there were obstructions and financial constraints, asRahu afflicts Mercury ruling inherited wealth and obstructions.The wife of the native keeps indifferent health. Due to theweakness of Mars, though enterprising, the native is lackingactiveness. The real problems are seen in the sub-period ofMercury in the main period of Saturn both of whom are iII­placed with slightly better position of Saturn due to Jupiter'saspect. Mercury on the other hand is heavily afflicted. Thisperiod is bad for health of self and spouse and loss of someportion of the inherited wealth or its being involved inlitigation. However, due to powerful placement of Jupiter thenative was impelled to seek help of divine science and as aresult of that the ill effects may be reduced to a large extent dueto sincere performance of astral-remedies.

Functionalmalefic, the Moon, is closely conjunct with the mid point of thefourth house and Venus while functional malefic, Mercury, isclosely conjunct with the mid point of the sixth house. The old­aged Jupiter is severely afflicted by close aspect of Rahu fromthe eighth house. The lord of the third house, Mars, is in thestate of infancy while lord of the seventh house, the Sun, is inthe state of old age.

w\.. PISCES ASCENDANTThe sign Pisces is ruled by Jupiter and rules feet, toes,

lymphatic system, bones of feet and toe, etc. Afflicted andweak Jupiter together with close affliction of functional maleficsto the midpoint of the ascendant gives gout pains, joint pains,problems of blood circulation and the diseases connected withthe parts ruled by this sign.

Pisces is a negative, non-human, watery and fruitful signand signifies enjoyments, sensitiveness, etc. Mercury getsdebilitated in this sign and Venus gets exalted in this sign. Withstrong and well placed Jupiter in the chart, it gives aspectacular rise in the career.

Pisceans are restless and are always on the move. Theyare generally devoted to duty, have strong moral value and aregood advisors whenever Jupiter and/or Mercury are strongin the horoscope. They are idealistic, generous, emotionaland enthusiastic.

As Jupiter rules the tenth house and Mars rules the secondhouse the Pisceans enjoy good status in life in the professionsof administration, training and development. They are bestsuited for advisory roles in the fields of finance, commerce andlaw. The sign Cancer in their fifth house makes them highlysensitive and emotional. The weak and afflicted placement ofthe Moon gives emotional set backs in life. The weaknessprone planet Mercury makes the marital life. of Pisceansunscuccessful. A strong Sun in the nativity without afflictingto other natal positions blesses the native with good healthwhile a similarly placed Saturn gives long life and Venus givesa long lease of marital life. However, transit close afflictionsof the Sun, Saturn and Venus do trigger the inauspicioussignificant events quite oftenly in life.

The planets Jupiter, Mars, Mercury and the Moon arefunctional benefics for this ascendant. The presence of theseplanets in strength in a nativity assures a happy married life, asuccessful career, happiness on account of progeny and a goodstatus in life.

and Venus are functional malefics. The functional malefics, theSun and Venus, are generally associated with Mercury in allnativities but because of the malefic nature of the Sun and Venusfor the Pisces natives, this association turns into affliction andspoils the marital affairs of the Pisceans by way of closeconjunctions of functional malefics. Besides, Mercury maybe weak due to combustion, debilitation, infancy or oldaae.The affliction by way of association/close conjunction of theSun and Venus is more frequent, as you all know. As themOoltrikona sign of Mercury falls in the seventh house, inaddition to the person being nervous he may lack vitality. Bothof these things are necessary for fostering physical and mentalcornpatability for a successful married life. These are thereasons why the married life of the Pisceans are generallystressful and end up in divorce/death of spouse/persistentbickerings.

The close unafflicted conjunctions amongst functionalbenefics become auspicious and yogakaraka. The conjunctionof Jupiter and Mars gives an authoritative and charmingprOfessional career with the Govt in financial, or judicialdepartments. The close conjunction of Jupiter with the Moonis indicative of high academic qualifications and blesses thenative with affluent level of assets and a career in theteaching, training and development. The close conjunction ofJupiter with Mercury makes the person highly suitable foranalytical/research oriented jobs and confers distinctive nameand fame. The strong and well placed conjunction of the Moonand Mars bestows a position in the highest rungs ofadministration. On the other hand affliction by functionalmafefics mar the good significations of other planets.

In the following sub-period of Jupiter, in its own mainperiod, the native's desires of a happy married life could notbe fulfilled because of debilitation of Jupiter. The sub-periodof functional malefic, Saturn, afflicting the Moon kept the statusquo going. In the sub-period of Mercury the native againstarted pursuing his divorce suit more vigorously includingseeking astral remedies. The efforts were not bringing thedesired results because of always changing strength ofMercury. Astral remedies did help and the native after a legaldivorce, entered into a new wedlock.

For getting consistent good and positiveresults, it is imperative that weak functional beneficsarestrengthened and propitiatory remedial measures for functionalmalefics are performed.

The debilitation of the tenth lord, a functional benefic, doesnot give a job with proper authority. The native, therefore, isworking with the private sector. The placement of the functionalbenefics, the Moon & Mars near the mid point of the thirdhouse together with the functional benefic, Mercury, gave theposition of an exceutive in the Media.
