Vriddhi-bhava = "birth place of increasing". Vriddhi-bhava = Shani's swabhava co-ruled by Rahu. Any activity of the rule-breaker rogue Rahu in bhava-11 is usually profitable if not always legitimate. Bhava-11 is the only sthana in which all of the papa-graha = Surya, Mangala, Shani, and Rahu = do a good job.

The marketplace is built upon a complex infrastructure of social relationships, a rule-driven system governed by multiple levels of law and policy.

Yet due to Rahu's influence, the type of risk which is not allowed in conservative bhava-10 is encouraged in universal bhava-11.

Vriddhi-bhava = increasing scope of goals and achievements. Here both are permitted: Shani's inflexible rules of scientific system-maintenance and the convention-penetrating innovative pursuits of Mangala which extends the reach of the economic rules.

It Matters Who Your Friends Are

HH Dalai Lama,

  • Lighting the Way, pages 31-32.

"In relation to the attainment of liberation from cyclic existence, which is known also as "definite goodness"; the role of other sentient beings is indispensable.

In the Buddhist understanding, the key spiritual practices that lead to the attainment of liberation are the Three Higher Trainings:

  • higher training in morality,
  • in meditation,
  • and in wisdom.

The last two are based upon the foundation of the first, namely the training in morality.

  • As I said before, the presence of other sentient beings is indispensable for this training.

This is how we come to the powerful realization that the role of other sentient beings is essential in all areas of our mundane and spiritual activities."
B.V. Raman. "300 Important Combinations". #59. Vidyuta Yoga:

Definition -

When the 11th lord is in deep exaltation

  • and joins Venus in a Kendra from the lord of the lagna,

    • Vidyut Yoga is caused.

    Results:

    • Charitable, pleasure-loving,

    • a treasurer or controller of wealth

    • and a great king or an equal to him

    Remarks:

    • Depending upon the exact strength of the two lords causing the yoga,

      • the person either be a king or equal to him.

      He will control wealth and he will be a man of generous instincts.

    • Here Venus, the 11th lord and Lord of Lagna are required to be disposed in a particular manner.

    • Venus is the planet of pleasure and comforts, whereas the lord of the 11th indicates gains.

    • Naturally when the Lagna is strong,

      • and the house of gains and lord of comforts and luxuries is equally strong,

      • one is bound to be well off in life

    		•

    View of "Labha" or [the extent to which the native is]making a favorable turn, meeting, and gaining permission:

    1. 11th house from radix lagna; L-11

    2. 11th- from- Chandra (gains on basis of mother, gains on basis of emotional disposition)

    3. 11th-from-11th, or Dharma Bhava

    4. Radix (D-1) planets in Kumbha (Aquarius)

    5. 11th-from-Saturn

    6. Radix L-11 within navamsha

    7. 11th from Surya (gains on basis of father, gains on basis of creative performance)
    -- Madhya Parashari, Ch. 9 , Shloka 11

    "The eleventh house for gains; elder brother [sibling]; ears; and thigh."
    -- BPHS Ch. 7, Shloka 39-43 Tanu Sthana

    "Whatever effects are to be known from .. Labha Bhava be also known from similar bhavas counted from Surya. ...
    -- BPHS Ch. 7, Shloka 39-43 Tanu Sthana

    Whatever results are to be known from ... Labha, ... should also be known from the ... 11th... from Chandra respectively."

    Gains and Income ; Fruition

    • 11 = Kumbha = distributive networks = economies of all types (not only financial).

    • A foremost signification of labha bhavais however the financial economy = The marketplace, with all the gains of association which come through interconnections of people with similar interests.

    • Labha bhava is responsible for all forms of gains and income. Method of income may be salary, commission, rents, royalties, or any other gainful means.

    bhava-2 "stored wealth" vs. bhava-11 "income stream"

    • bhava-11 = sources of wealth or "revenue streams"; earnings; money coming in.

    • bhava-2 = capital, or cattle. Skandha. Static, hoarded, or banked savings. Food reserves. Money or values historically preserved by one's family history. Includes wealth stored in traditions of art, music, theatre, and craft.

    • Along with the relationship with domains 5, 9, and 1 (which determine past-life credit), the relationship between bhava-11 and bhava-2 (sources and resources) determines the total wealth situation.

    Hopes, Dreams, Wishes, Desires, Attainments

    Labha bhava is all about PERMISSION, the right to enter, right to communicate, right to circulate, right to gain information. It is the house of ambitions and aspiration, manifestation and achievement. The seed energy of all manifestation is the wish, hope, desire, or dream that gets it all started.

    Good planets in labha bhava show the type and quality of permission in the person's life. When karmic permission levels are high, the person will experience satisfaction of their needs, and gaining of pleasure.

    • Uchcha Budha in labha gives unlimited permission to gain system-related information regarding every variety of economy = social, financial, conceptual, biological, etc. Also, grants a network of highly communicative, well-connected, often mentally gifted friends.

    • Exalted Shani in 11th makes a tremendously hard worker who holds a dedicated commitment to improve one's material circumstances. Through significant effort, one obtains significant material gains.

    • Rahu-11in almost any rashi triples the desire for material gain, and amplifies the desire to associate with persons from a diverse variety of demographic backgrounds. Major gains of income during Rahu periods.

    • Crippled planets in Labha show the person lacks permission even to wish for better things. Without the desire, nothing will happen.

    • Cramped conditions in labha give poor circulation in the physical body and also in the marketplace, resulting in limited flow of resources, especially information.

    Elder siblings, Experienced Mentors, Predecessors

    • bhava-11 = one's Immediate elder Sibling and father's younger brother, as well as "those who have gone before" who are just slightly ahead of one on life's path.

    • Guru and professors who speak as more distant moral authorities giving philosophical wisdom belong to dharma bhava. Financial and social advisors giving elder-sibling type of advice are found in bhava-11.

    • As 3rd-from-9th, elder siblings(at least in traditional societies) are seen by their younger brothers and sisters as being "brothers to the father" or more senior in social status. Father's other "brothers" such as father's colleagues traditional ly take a mentoring or advising role.

    If L-11 is strong and well-placed, the immediate elder sibling will be a very helpful person in one's life, particularly in matters of gain in the marketplace. However if L-11 is uchcha or otherwise exceptionally strong, the native is often himself the eldeSaint He will have well-placed friends, and gain substantially from the matters signified by that exalted graha. E.g.,

    1. uchcha Surya gains through leadership, politics and theatre

    2. uchcha Chandra gains through

    3. uchcha Kuja gains through commercial competition;

    4. uchcha Budha gains through speech and writing;

    5. uchcha Guru gains through housing and real estate;

    6. uchcha Shukra gains through music and fine arts

    7. uchcha Shani gains through diplomacy and conservative values;

    Kumbha-1 can become independently wealthy if both bhava (3) and (11) are powerful.

    Friends, Friendliness, Networks human and technological

    • Naturally the marketplace is a gathering arena for friends.

    • Labha bhava/Aquarius rules acquaintances, social gatherings, agreements between friends, community activities, development work, and networks of all kinds(including electro-magnetic device networks like computer, telephone, internet, etc.)

    bhava-11 rules free associations, networking, setting and achieving goals, and the marketplace of good and ideas.

    Labha-sthana is Shani's bhava but it is oh-so important to remember that bhava-11 is co-ruled by Renegade Rahu the Opportunist.

    • The marketplace is built upon a large and regular but highly complex infrastructure of social relationships.

    • A rule-driven system governed by multiple levels of ordered principles, law and policy.

    Due to Rahu's influence, risk which is not allowed in bhava-10 is encouraged in bhava-11. Vriddhi-bhava = goals and achievements, involving both inflexible rules of science and the extension of rule-driven connectivity which permits access to those who understand the rules of the system.

    Vriddhisthana = a site of social progress via extension of lawful opportunity to participate which is granted to previously unconnected classes of ideas, people, behaviors, and objects.

    Appreciation for the Sangha

    H.H. Dalai Lama. (2001).

    • An Open Heart: Practicing Compassion in Everyday Life .

    • Nicholas Vreeland (Ed.), afterword by Khyongla Rato and Richard Gere.

    "As our understanding and faith in the Dharma grows,

    • we develop an appreciation for the Sangha,

    • the individuals, both past and present,

    • who have attained such states of freedom from suffering.

    We can then conceive of the possibility

    • of a being who has attained total freedom from the negative aspects of mind: a Buddha.

    And as our recognition of the miserable nature of life develops,

    • so does our appreciation of the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha

    • - the Three Jewels in which we seek shelter.

    This intensifies our quest for their protection."
