in Mantra Bhava-5

Mars in the fifth house

natural regulator Surya feels Friendly toward Kuja

Graha Drishti

• the glance of Mangala-5 injects: bhava-8, bhava-11, bhava-12

Actions (yang Mangala) originate in the romantic, creative and procreative "genius" speculative instincts (5)

Targeted, outgoing vigor of Mangala-5 penetrates:

• Randhra bhava = discovering secret sources of regeneration and rebirth

• Labha bhava = earning material achievements and marketplace income

• Vyaya bhava = provoking and evoking spiritual guidance from the astral realm

• Strength of Mangala Drishti from Mangala-bhava-5

Swabhava of Surya seeks bright lights, big city, glitter, glamour, entertainment, celebrity, and fame. Being a good friend of brilliantly radiant Lord Ravi, the ever-moving Lord Mangala is generally OK with all this excitement.

splendid placement for a stage performer. Has the energy for long and demanding artistic performances.

• musician Ravi Shankar sitar ensemble delivered classical Bharati musical performances of 4, 6 or more hours inlength

• USA Pres-32, Franklin D. Roosevelt was a constant and public-delighting radio communicator known for his informative,  audience-pleasing "Fireside Chats"

In fact, Kuja is ready and fueled to make more action, more movement, more competition in the worlds of politics, theatre, literary creativity, fashion, ornamentation, and all acts of Divine Intelligence that make us smile. Just show Kuja the theatre of operations, and watch the drama get hot.

Excellent for high-energy politics, passionate romance, and competitive fashion; muscular vitality in theatrical displays and childbirth pushing.

The one downside to the Mangala placement in 5 however is living children, who are included in putrabhava due to their immense creativity but who are rather fragile beings emotionally. Resist any urge to apply fierce actions toward children, and this placement can be enjoyable throughout life.

Good placement for a competitive individual athlete, classroom teacher, salesperson, actor, lecturer, public speaker -- any job that involves delivering a dynamic, energetic individual performance.

• For Mesha or Vrischika lagna, Kuja in bhava-5 can give a dynamic career in literary or performance arts. Otherwise, can hyper-activate the downside of speculative interests such as gambling.

Mangala in 5 energizes one's own relationship to

• children, the winning of games and contests, one's expression of genius via acts of individual intelligence, participation in games and gambling, Romance, and dynamism of creative performance.

Kuja + Rahu = tendency toward compulsive gambling, mainly during Rahu periods.

Karaka for death by heart failure, or in the presence of one's children.

Mangala drishti to 8, 11, and 12 = energizes the pursuit of

• income from the marketplace activities (11)

• dream-knowledge and the psychic imagination (12)

• confidential information and mystical secrets (8)

Intellectual capabilities in matters of "discovery" such as legal discovery of facts, but also more physical expressions such as discovery of mineral resources or discovery of evidence at a crime scene. With some Kanya graha, makes an excellent investigative inspecto of manufacturing or health facilities.

Positive placement for gymnastic performance in theatre, for aggressive political campaigns, when in fiery rashi.

Agents of approval, admiration, applause = siblings and competitors.

Inventing games and winning competitions = the primary means of gaining ego-validation, attention and approval.

May be dynamically aggressive (Kuja) in political campaigns =

• USA Pres-27 William Howard Taft,

• USA Pres-28, Woodrow Wilson

• USA Pres-39 Jimmy Carter

Abundant creative (5) energy (Kuja) in literature, esp of a political nature =

• Karl Marx

Abundant creative physical-sexual energy (Kuja) in literary, musical, and dramatic performance

Excellent placement for a vigorously touring musician or one who needs bursts of high vitality for brilliant theatrical performances.

Often dramatists with political activism combined.

• dramatist activist Christopher Reeve

• USA Congressman Newt Gingrich

• dramatist, activist George Clooney

• dramatist Jack Nicholson

• dramatist activist Elizabeth Taylor

• dramatist activist Paul Newman

• dramatist Rex Harrison

• balladeer Eric Clapton

• balladeer Phil Collins

• balladeer Jim Morrison , the Doors

Adolescence (5)

Mangala-5 may be particularly combative and self-defensive in adolescence

• Although Mangala is comfortable in a natural Bhava of Surya, if the rashi of 5 is hostile to Mangala, the native may be passive-aggressive or possibly even self-destructive during adolescence

sports and military exercise may help to express the aggressive tendencies along positive lines; however again the rashi of Mangala must support direct physical action

• Prince Charles Windsor, Christopher Reeve

Mangala in a rashi of Shani, Shukra, Budha, and Chandra must express indirectly

• Mangala in rashi of Budha can be particularly snide and critical as an unhappy adolescent

Focus of Vital Physical Activity

• stage performance

• creative literature

• political endeavors esp. public speaking

• gambling, games, and leisurely entertainments

• managing children

• dynamic and competitive expressions of intelligence, quiz shows,

• courtly, romantic, and royal pursuits

• distinctively competitive, particularly in scholarly or dramatic (5) contests where 'genius' is the winning component

• teachers if you have a Kuja-5 student, know that they pursue recognition for their unique, sparkling and incisive personal intelligence.

  • Unless bhava-3 is strong, this student is not normally motivated by team success although they are good at leading a winning team. Kuja-5 competes in scholastic (5) games for individual dominance

  • generally cannot abide 'average' position in any subject. They score at top or at bottom of any assessment but rarely in the un-distinctive middle zone.

  if Mangala is well-disposed, the native wins (Kuja) at most games (5).

• the native pursues dynamically energized (Kuja) creative empowerments (5)

• if Mangala is strong by rashi, there is a good deal of vital energy (Kuja) available to develop speculative ventures (5)

• If Mangala is strong, the native can express tremendous vitality (Kuja) in pursuit (Kuja) of applause (5) for personal genius (5)

• Makes one's mark (5) in the center of one's own world (5) via some type of competitive (Mangala) expression of divine intelligence (5)

Conception and childbirth

• Mangala in 5 Limits the number of children. However if there favorable drishti (notably from Guru) is received into putra bhava, children will be born.

  • If Guru occupies domain 1, 9 or 11, casting drishti into 5 = one live child is assured.

  • Guru drishti to bhava-5 will almost always bring children, via birth or adoption, albeit with complications and delays should there be a difficult graha in the house.

  • Drishti of the L-5 or L-9 upon putra bhava is helpful for fertility

  • Overall conditions in putra and dharma must be assessed.

  In certain rashi, prognosis for Mangala in 5 = great difficulty in matters of conception and childbirth. However in Mesha, Simha, Thula, Dhanushya, or Kumbha, lord Mangala generally succeeds in producing children perhaps after a few miscarriages or other disappointments.

  In the less auspicious rashi, it is normal to expect one or more miscarriages. Extreme cases involving multiple miscarriages or repeated stillbirths might be forecast only if there are multiple malefic influences upon both bhava-5 from lagna and the 5th from Chandra.

  Rahu = exacerbated existing difficulties.

  Guru in 9, 11, or 1 will eventually produce children, albeit after much stress of impatience and too-much-movement from Mangala.

Miscarriage or childlessness,

• Fewer problems and usually a live birth after some cleansing of hostile energies, when Mangala-5 occupies favorable Rashi

If Guru casts drishti into 5 and Mangala occupies Mesha, Simha, Dhanushya, Thula, or Kumbha, children are delivered

Children

• Notorious significator of miscarriage, but if Guru casts drishti upon bhava-5, the native will eventually have live children.

• Limits the number of children but generally does not prevent all births. Will prevent some of the births however.

• Miscarriage or stillbirth, potentially some conflict with children but the conflict from a pugnacious child can be eliminated if that child is directed into school sports. Live children may mature into Mangala-driven careers such as military, investigative-police, metal-smith, weaponry, hunting, and athletic professionals.

• OK for conception in Mesha, Simha, Dhanushya, Thula, or Kumbha albeit one of more early miscarriages should be expected to prepare for the live birth of this all-conquering child!

• if favorable drishti to Kuja = production of athletic, outgoing, competitive, strong, independent children

From bhava-5, Mangala casts Graha- Drishti:

Strength of Mangala Drishti

100% = 4th drishti to randhra bhava = productive toward the natural Bhava of Mangala.

• Presuming Kuja is favorable by Rashi, and barring blockage from negative graha in 8, Kuja drishti to 8 will energize pursuit of wealth through joint assets of marriage.

• The spouse contributes to marriage wealth. Increased drive toward tantric knowledge and dynamic response to catastrophic change. Contributes to sudden and catastrophic emergencies during periods of Kuja.

25% = 7th aspect to labha bhava = cautiously productive in the natural Bhava of Shani, so long as the native keeps earnings within the rule of marketplace law.

• 25% Kuja dosha toward the fifth marriage (11).

• Energizes income from self-initiated business dealings. Natural tension between conventional earning styles vs. Mars' aggressive market behaviors.

• Earnings through association (including marriage)will prosper. Good for community development networking. Arguments with friends during Kuja period, often about money.

100 % 8th drishti to vyaya bhava = productive in the natural Bhava of friendly Guru.

• Stimulates the imagination especially regarding private pleasures. Native may have a theatrical (5) streak which seeks expression in the boudoir; or, if literary-minded, a highly energized romantic (5) imagination (12) that could be productively engaged in the performance arts.
