L-7/L-12 yuti L-8

This gifted male scientist has suffered chronic skin & digestive health complaints for most of his adult life.  

Symptoms of Exhaustion Muscle Spasm Skin Infections Headaches started small then increased painfully over two decades, eventually creating a major health crisis in his 4th decade.  helt3_dasha.GIF


Mahadasha of L-6 Shukra:

Native was a physically active young man during mahadasha of L-6 Shukra.  He reports first intestinal troubles at the end of his teenage years, in the period of L-6 Shukra / L-8 Guru

He was a high school bicycle enthusiast who manufactured custom bicycles in a poorly ventilated shop.  He assumed that his nausea & weakness, poor appetite & skin eruptions, was due to some toxin in the manufacturing environment.

Although suffering throughout his college years from digestive problems including flatulence & emaciation, and fairly severe skin eruptions, the native experienced no lack of self-esteem.

He and his family consider the native to be genius-quality intelligent.  College was a mere formality for him, since he was primarily focused on independent research.  

Lagnesha Shukra yuti = courageous, self-made-wealth L-3 Chandra, in house-12 of research with their dispositor Kuja in Kumbha, sign of visionary conceptual thought.

College graduation in Shukra/L-5 Budha (rather than in a more conventional Jyotisha period of education lord L-4) exemplifies his perception that college supported, rather than proved, his intelligence.


Mahadasha of L-4 Surya:

Despite the slowly undermining effects of chronic tiredness, this very determined man undertook a research-intensive university doctorate in sciences during the period of L-4 Surya in house-11; gains in education

Here we see the conventional education lord at work; the Ph.D. was for him not a personal playground (as college was) but rather a significant social validation.

Symptoms of rectal bleeding, flatulence, recurring acne (or what appeared to be acne), emaciation, exhaustion, nausea, and a foul body odor dogged the native during Surya mahadasha. 

His strong personal charm ensured a steady flow of friendship & romance, as well as committed support from his professors.  

The university health service tried antibiotic and anti-parasite treatments, to no avail.


Mahadasha of L-3 Chandra:

Native was unable to find a teaching position after receiving the doctoral degree (note Chandra's house 3 is 6th-from-10th house, = animosity & conflict with career).  

Wanting to remain academically productive, he undertook a massive multiple-volume book project instead.  House-3 rules writing, and all communications media. Due to exhaustion & the inherent conflict between writing & career (which is true for everyone because house-3 is always 6th-from-10th) the writing project was never finished.  

In Chandra/ L-10 Shani, where Shani occupies 10th-from-Chandra, native received an tenured professorship.  Although he felt sick almost constantly, in celebration of his new stability he married; in the subsequent bhukti of L-5 Budha, he produced a child.

L-3 Chandra demands constant writing, and the native's desire to succeed with large international-research-driven writing projects is much amplified Chandra occupying 12 (research, foreign travel) and Rahu in 3.  His writing continued sporadically through the mahadasha, although weakness from the underlying disease caused much frustration.

In the midst of native's own suffering, comes spinal trauma & paralysis for the spouse

Chandra/Shukra gave the crisis of sudden spinal trauma with paralysis for this native's spouse.  L-1/L-6 Shukra = 7th-from-7th & 12th-from-7th, showing the maraka power of Shukra for this native's wife.  L-12 shows her hospitalization followed by long-term convalescent care. Shukra is also L-12 in navamsha.

Periods of L-6 signify conflict in any marriage (especially the first marriage) because house-6 is 12th-from-balance, dissolution of agreements, and loss of harmony.  

Simultaneous health crises of both partners put a tremendous strain on this young couple with a toddler.

Mahadasha of L-7 / L-12 Mars:

Facing an ever-increasing workload under L-7 Kuja, 10th-from-10th for professional tasks; where Kuja occupies the career-10th house, native's symptoms worsened dramatically.  

However, L-7 also rules advisors such as physicians & attorneys.  Blessed with an alert advising physician, native was quickly diagnosed with Crohn's Disease (colo-rectal disease: perforated bowel causing major blood loss through holes in wall of lower intestines) which had been sickening him all this time.

Mangala is both a natural and temporal maraka for Vrishabha lagna. 

Kuja/Guru period where L-7 Kuja is yuti L-8 Guru, has been exceptionally difficult health-wise.  Yet the native's career is doing well because these two trouble-makers do occupy the career-10th.

Trimshamsha

For all misfortunes such as accidents, conflicts, financial issues, & disease, we consult the Trimshamsha (D-30).  

Guru as radix L-8 is already rules the sudden uprising of hidden diseases, and is therefore a temporal misfortune-maker. As lord of the Trimshamsha, Guru has additional inauspicious powers.

Furthermore in D-30, radix L-6 Shukra conjuncts radix L-8  Guru in the twelfth D-30, a house of locally rising Shani who gives long-term struggles.


What planetary factors suggest a hidden, chronic disease?

L-6 Shukra is unfavorably located in vyaya bhava, a house of hidden things - often called a house of "pardaa" or "behind the curtain".  Disease factors remained hidden for decades, until the period of L-12/L-7 Mars revealed them.

Venus indicates anemia, ailments due to the disturbance of phlegmatic and windy humors, eye troubles, urinary diseases, or those of the generative organs...

-- Phaladeepika, Ch 14, shloka 7

L-12 Kuja gives dissolution, very long term hidden erosion and weakening. Major weakening factors are the occupants of house-12: L-6 Shukra the overt disease agent, and L-3 Chandra the mental health agent.  

Kuja/Kumbha is generally an unfavorable combination, placing Kuja in the house of His bitter enemy Shani.  Kuja/Kumbha suggests irritation (Kuja) of skin & nerves (Kumbha) and also - yuti with L-8 Guru - widespread & invasive but hidden disturbance of the blood (Mesha). 

The same graha (Kuja) which causes the dissolution also as L-7 may cause death - probably in combination with the other maraka L-2 Budha.  

L-8 Guru yuti maraka L-7/L-12 Kuja emphasizes the hidden nature of this deadly process, since L-8 not only creates the conditions of death but also rules the sudden uprisings of long-festering subconsciously suppressed energies.

L-8 can also give remarkable healings if the native allows the subconsciously suppressed information to come *all the way out into full, responsibly accepting, consciousness*.  This does occasionally happen, and when it does, there is full healing indeed.


Jupiter may be said to be responsible for appendicitis, disorders of the intestines, including fevers, neurotic disturbances caused by anxiety, fainting or swoon and phlegmatic disorders, ear trouble, vertigo ...

  -- Phaladeepika, Ch 14, shloka 6


Prognosis:

Medical opinion gives Crohn's Disease a wide range of future outcomes.  Expectations follow a broad continuum from long-lived pain management to near-term death.  

Kuja/Budha is quite dangerous because L-7 Mangala is already a major maraka with lethal association to L-8, and Budha is the other maraka L-2.  

However Budha is fallen and therefore less powerful, so native might simply experience increased illness & awareness of death, while becoming closer to his family (2) & quite possibly increasing his wealth (L-11 in 2nd house).
