Parashara says: [They] are generally short in stature but they are plump with short hands & feet. [They] are by nature philosophical, restless, full of imagination & fond of romantic life. They are honest, humane & helpful.
On account of their being over-liberal & over- generous, they often hamper their own progress. They are very happy when they can spend their money to help others & on charitable causes.
These persons are not steady. They may change from one profession to another. The married life of a Meena native is generally happy but they have a jealous nature.
Saravali (Ch. 48, Shloka 46-49)

Sthana (Domain) Rashi & Pati Phul (fruits) House 1 - Appearances
Nikola Tesla
Meena [Pisces]
Appearance depends on Guru's condition - sign, house, companion planets, drishti, etc.. However, Meena-lagna folk will have a kapha or slightly blue-white cast to their complexion, relative to their gene pool. (Moon's sign & characteristics also influence appearance.)
Meena lagna tend to possess an abundant body, soft but healthy, & a generous nature overall. Complexion is golden, relative to their gene pool.
Shukra in lagna: extremely beautiful, wealthy, and involved in secret dealings.
House 2 - Values
Mesha [Aries]
Verbally forthright, ranging from proactive to aggressive, depending on the condition of Mangala. They value quick, decisive action, & favor a sporting lifestyle, for its moral & aesthetic benefits. Family members share the sporting values (unless Mars is troubled). Family tends, as a group, to be decisive (or impatient) folk, reflecting the qualities of Kuja in the nativity.
Surya in domain-2, speaks as a virtuous warrior on behalf of the underclass. A fallen family lineage.
House 3 - Mental Process
Vrishabha [Taurus]
Sentimental thinkers. They are sensual lovers of nature and worldly environment, with sensitive mental radar that picks up a group vibe very accurately. They love small group activities, enjoy the company of their siblings throughout adulthood, and relish technical details - particularly they like to "talk shop" about their sports, hobbies, and coworkers.
Chandra in domain-3, a neighborhood full of wonderful children and fine arts business.
House 4 - Home, family, security
Mithuna [Gemini]
Prefers a practical, often technical education that gives them marketplace mobility. Often abort the formal educations to go to work, or resist graduate education in order to retain a steady if lower paycheck. Budha needs a quick turnaround.
Wonderful in management, where they can function as both friend and parent to their workers. Fine trainers. Don't mind frequent house moves, but have an extremely specific order of housekeeping in their homes wherever assignments might take them. Prefers modern, new homes & furnishings, new automobiles, cutting edge equipment & tools.
Karka [Cancer]
Fluctuating, romantic mind with a natural affinity for children. Emotional satisfaction in the creative expressions of teaching, guiding, parenting, authoring, etc. Enjoys adventure, speculation & politics. Attracted to the coach/mentor/teacher/guru role.
Chandra is a highly impressionable graha. If Chandra is yuti a strong career graha, then career may provide more satisfaction than children. If Chandra is oppressed by Shani or agitated by Kuja/Rahu, then matters of children, romance, speculation, theatre and politics will reflect Chandra's condition.
Enemies, Debt/Finance, Illness, Livestock/Pets, Servants
Simha [Leo]
Rational self and ethical intelligence is focused on finance/debt/conflict management; health/diet; & servants/pets/livestock. Native is publicly identified with clinical medicine, police, human services, finance, or other type of conflict management.
Imbalanced finance, health, & legal situation - unless Surya occupies house-8 or house-12 (in which case the imbalance is destroyed). Often has a large household with animals & servants.
Depends entirely on Surya's sign & house how well the native can manage their employees & livestock. In the best case their ego-Self is flattered by a large estate; in the worst case the problems of managing too many dependents can be overwhelming & the public reputation is harmed.
Kanya [Virgo]
Marriage is dominated by a conversational, information-exchanging style of interaction. The partners talk frequently unless Budha is damaged. Spouse may be immature, concerned with illnesses, or compulsively organizing if Budha is damaged. Generally however, one is youthful in attitude & appearance, & a skilled, helpful family detail manager.
Contracts, agreements, legal discussions, all types of advising are helped by Budha's communicative fluency. Divorce if necessary is argued extensively with much detail. Often pragmatic, alternative arrangements such as additional partnerships can avoid the unpleasantness of divorce.
Marriage is part of the larger family homelife, often involving the native's or spouse's parents. This marriage is not just two people in their own bubble; they are conversing & planning always with their parents, esp. mother. Generally, an intellectualized, friendly view of relationships; sexually & verbally fluent.
Joint assets of marriage, secret matters, in-laws, therapeutics, healing, taboos, taxes, tantra
Thula [Libra]
Contribution of spouse toward joint assets of marriage tends to be comfortably good. Native likes secret information, confidences, mysteries, taboo & breaking taboo. Generally native enjoys environments like the mysterious stock market, investing large monies from pooled funds such as insurance companies & pension accounts, facilitating deep healing such as spa & therapeutic locations.
Vrischika [Scorpio]
Strongly shamanistic, psychic, intuitively exploratory bent to their religious life. Can undertake rigorous initiations. Depending on Kuja's condition, may prefer a military-religious style, such as Jesuits. Good for theologians and others who must argue the case for divine behavior in a competitively intellectual academic setting. Favors the priesthood, thrives in an exclusively male environment - suited to discipline but is not naturally suited to celibacy, so holy vows often require some compromise.
Tantric view of religion. Magician. Can be a breathtakingly accurate healer if their own meditation is honest & authentic (which will depend on character of Mercury & Moon). Good teacher of adults, flourishes in university & corporate culture. Good psychiatrist, forensic scientist, detective, occultist - but must teach within their profession, and be able to understand their profession as a priesthood.
Dhanus [Sagittarius]
Public dignity is generally favorable under Guru's auspicious influence. Optimistic about gaining public support for his ventures. Respectable, responsible moral leader, citizen & parent. Very favorable for professional career. Benefits of charitable acts in past lives funnel directly into Guru's two houses: house-1 for physical appearance & house-10 for career. Blessed with abundance. Wants to help build a better society. Often succeeds.
Makara [Capricorn]
Slow and steady approach toward goal achievement, including earnings. Native will succeed despite their own doubts, through their own diligent work and effort. Solid work ethic, relatively few friends. Most socializing is connected to their work. Puts more resource into community & social networks than they take out. Earnings increase according to plan.
Kumbha [Aquarius]
The meditation and inner sanctuary house is made quiet & sober under Shani's lordship. Sleep, meditation & imaginative pursuits when permitted are structured & disciplined. The native may be permanently sleep deprived.
Foreign travel also may be required in some restricted, rule-driven way. If foreign sojourns occur, they have ulterior motive such as education for gainful employment or leaving one's country as an economic refugee.
Compassion for the poor & disenfranchised. Strong imagination for designing social schemes toward equality.
Summary of Graha Lordships for Meena Lagna
L-6
Surya karaka for rational self, soul, pride & ethical awareness, controls the most evil dusthana, domain-6.
In general, Meena lagna natives must be inordinately cautious of their own independent, egoistic instincts, since self-assertion tends quickly toward conflict. A cosmic, merging worldview serves much more comfortably.
L-5
The highly fluctuating and impressionable Chandra rules house-5 for Matsya lagna. Psycho-emotional predisposition:
Meena lagna has a psycho-emotional predisposition to expect that creating children & speculative activities will provide their security & protection. They are happiest (not always successful but happiest) in creative roles that express individual intelligence & self-determination, & allow the native to take risks. E.g., literary author, speculative investor, independent educator, & almost any political or entertainment role including genius teaching styles.
Chandra's radix & navamsha rashi's & any drishti to Chandra will show the native's specific style of pursuing security & emotional fulfillment. (e.g., Moon ruled by Shukra gives creative roles in beauty & fairness; ruled by Shani gives creative roles in government & large organizations; ruled by Surya creative role in entertainment etc.)
Typically these natives love children, and expect to profit by raising them. Whether they choose reproductive fertility or not depends on conditions of dharma bhava & putra bhava. They are prone toward lifelong self-improvement & often involved in the consciousness industry. Will generally achieve some degree of celebrity (or notoriety!).
When the highly fluctuating & impressionable Chandra controls the domain of children & speculation, much depends on Chandra's lord & companions. Emotional feeling & empathy for children is strong, but unfocused. If L-4 Budha is organized, the native can stabilize the home routines. Otherwise the emphasis on creativity, content over form, can be understructured. Children are creative & intuitive & probably moody, having bee emotionally indulged.
L-2, L-9
Vital and competitive Kuja controls two important wealth/values houses. (Wealth houses are 2, 5, 9, & 11.)
As such Kuja brings vigorous but often adversarial family culture.
The native is raised with winners & fighters. The early values are instilled with a culture of competition & success. Religion and philosophical wisdom are also infused with a drive toward psychological inquiry that pushes the native toward an individual truth. Disliking convention & herd behaviors, one tends away from group rituals, and toward more personalized knowledge. Check Kuja, Shani, & Chandra for total wealth picture.
L-4, L-7
Conversational and sexual Budha is a good stable influence for Meena.
L-4/L-7 Budha is a powerful Education agent. Budha periods foster an interest in educational undertakings, and also predict significant educational achievements, such as mastering a new business communications medium such as marketing, sales, or advertising (Budha ) or completing an academic diploma. (Presuming Budha is healthy & no resistance in house-4 or house-7).
L-1, L-10
Wise and expansive Guru is a superb career graha, similar to the role Budha plays for Kanya lagna.
Native benefits from an expansive personality, and an inclusive social viewpoint which eases public responsibilities. Much depends on the dignity of Guru and the timing of Guru mahadasha, but a benefic controlling two key kendras is definitely helpful for career.
L-3, L-8
As the ruler of two dusthanas, sweet and sensual Shukra is not a beneficial graha for Meena lagna.
Sensual inclinations tend to involve the native in hidden activities such as espionage or coverups; while as lord of domain-3, Shukra also creates mental intrigue which drains the vitality.
L-11, L-12
Pragmatic and conventional Shani gives profit and takes it away.
Periods of Shani build income and achievement, but also create loneliness, isolation, and loss of identity. If Shani is favorable, the L-12 implications may turn to foreign travel and healing spas, rather than marital conflict or wandering. In any case Shani periods are distinguished by hard work which is profitable.
