Surya

L-9

For the Dhanushya nativity, Ravi controls the all-good dharma bhava, house of priestly ritual and public worship.

The father is very philosophical, although strong-willed; and confident, although possibly rather egoistic due to karako bhavo nashto.Often the father = a religious figure in the native's birth community.

Career

Because Surya = Bright Light that receives public recognition, and Ravi = L-9 for Dhanusha lagna

Dhanusha = somewhat disposed toward to accept high-visibility roles and professional leadership responsibilities within universities, temples (9) and world traveling religious or philosophical groups (9) .

Under auspice of a strong Surya, the Dhanushya lagna may produce a celebrity in the fields of religion, philosophy, moral teachings, or international travel pursuits.

Example environments include ritual priesthood , university professor, specialties of sacred literature and wisdom teaching, temple-based education, religious missionary, preacher, moral talks.

• Ravi = L-12 from 10th

  • the 9th lord while often an auspicious graha is nevertheless often the culprit for loss of professional dignity.

• may be associated with temporary "job loss" or other public indignities,

• but the upside = the release of public duties also opens the door to a gain of religious wisdom.

Chandra

L-8

Psycho-emotional predisposition: Chandra rules bhava-8

Dhanusha lagna has a psycho-emotional predisposition to expect that access to secret associations and confidential information will provide their security and protection.

• This one is happiest (not always successful but happiest) in mysterious roles that express healing behaviors. E.g., psychotherapist, surgeon, psychic intuitive, money launderer, silent business partner, secret sexual partner, or as the holder of highly confidential information in secure positions such as executive secretary or military officer.

• Chandra's radix and navamsha rashi's and any drishti to Chandra will show the native 's specific style of pursuing security and emotional fulfillment.

  • (E.g., Moon ruled by Shukra gives confidential roles in beauty and justice; ruled by Shani gives political and military roles handling government and corporate secrets; ruled by Surya a priestly role in communicating religious secrets, etc.)

Typically these natives expect to gain social and emotional stability by investing in hidden information and secret relationships. They often live two lives, one public and one private - and profit thereby. Despite their desire for secure protection, they are prone toward intrigue and may face a lifetime of sudden, unpredictable psycho-emotional upheavals including health crises.

Both the native and his/her mother may suffer mysterious, medically undiagnosable illnesses which a psychic would know to have emotional causes.

The highly fluctuating and impressionable Chandra regulates and empowers randhra bhava, the house of magical transformative healing, emergencies, and hidden or highly confidential information.

• Chandra = L-8 = sudden, apparently unprovoked eruptions of violence.; secrets; disasters; upheavals

  • Chandra=mother;

  • Chandra = L-12 from dharma bhava, drains energy from father-figures esp in their role as Moral Guides (9)

• for many all nativities, there is a pattern of the feminine intuitive subconscious draining the energy from the masculine productive consciousness (Chandra always rules 12th from Surya's house)

• for Dhanushya lagna, this pattern is often exacerbated within the family, since Chandra becomes the mysterious L-8 while Surya strives to preach wisdom as the Spiritually Guiding L-9. Dhanushya men may have extra trouble with women who may seem to drain their vital, worshipful, self-righteous life force (9).

• e.g., Larry King divorced 7 times, or USA Sen. Edward "Teddy" Kennedy whose extramarital dalliances (and one mysterious drowning) seemed to put a steady drain on his moral leadership (9)

Kuja

L-5 / L-12

Vital and competitive Kuja controls children, performance arts, politics, brilliant acts of genius, as well as long-term foreign residence, meditation and prayer, contemplative arts, and dissolution of the physical identity.

Budha

L-7 / L-10

partnerships and social rank

Budha wants to think-about and talk-about, instruct, explain, classify, discriminate, analyze, articulate, and announce re: matters of bhava-7 and bhava-10 = partnering and social rank

• Relationships and contracts: unions, weights and measures, balancing, values, interactions, mutual interests, agreements, accords, negotiations, bargains, marriage, partnership, diplomacy, bartering, match-making, pairs

• Professional or social dignity: leadership roles, hierarchical status, position and attributes of distinction, rank and reputation, professional recognition, regulation of social environments, promotions, titles, government and bureaucratic details, policies and procedures, legislators and laws

Conversational and sexually curious Budha suffers from kendra-adhi-pati dosha.

L-7 Budha = the badhakalord for Dhanavana lagna (Badhakaor"harming"houses = the 9th from a fixed lagna, 7th from a changeable lagna, and 11th from a cardinal lagna. )

Guru

L-1 / L-4

Wise and expansive Guru defines the physical body level of social personality identity, as well as the native 's approach toward matters of education and property ownership. A natural humanistic educator.

Shukra

L-6 + L-11

L-6 Shukra is generally a problematic influence for the Dhanushya lagna. As L-6 Shukra can disturb one's inner balance and one's outer relationships.

Shukra has special importance in male nativities, because Shukra signifies both marriage itself and the influence of the female partner in one's life.

• From the Dhanusha Chandra+ L-6 and L-11 Shukra is inauspicious.

• T he female partner is inclined to mirror the native 's own inner argumentativeness, yet she is gainful and through her the couple may enjoy an active social network.

• T he female partner tends toward illnesses and the male needs to be careful of dormant potential for addition, including addiction to women.

• Dhanusha men often divorce and remarry ( Larry King, Jack Welch , "Teddy" Kennedy); yet Shukra = L-11 therefore each marriage brings more income, achieves more goals, and expands the marketplace association.

Sweet and sensual Shukra becomes an agent of both conflict (6) and gainfulness (11). Shukra brings both the hostility of imbalanced relationships which produce enemies, and the structured network of association through the marketplace of goods and ideas which creates a great circle of friends.

Considering that Shukra is lord of both the 6th AND the 6th from the 6th, Dhanusha is understood to be particularly challenged in the area of promise-keeping and alliance-maintenance. Marital fidelity is not a strong point of Dhanusha, nor is Dhanusha particularly concerned to protect the alliances of others.

Due to Shukra's inauspicious lordship, Dhanusha natives typically have quite a bit of trouble (especially during Shukra periods) with the range of Venusian significators:

• partnerships and alliances of all kinds (Dhanusha should in general avoid business partnerships, or at least be very careful to have the terms of agreement made perfectly explicit)

• Art and music; the Muse;

• rich food and drink; luxurious conditions of all kinds; fine perfumes and textiles

• love-making, and the external genitalia (sexually transmitted diseases)

• wives, marriage, and women in general - (Dhanusha is rather prone to divorce)

• (mother, too, is problematic - since Chandra = L-8)

• wealth and the value of stored goods, which tends to follow a pattern of high-highs and low-lows

• Dhanusha women will have issues with jealousy, either predatory females who are jealous of the native , or the native 's own envy toward females in her environment (including often one's own friends)

Ex: Larry King, the USA television interview host, still operating a popular show and married to his 8th wife, announced his 8th divorce, in Guru/Shukra period, amidst accusations of marital infidelity, at age 76.

Shukra is an especially difficult graha for Dhanusha nativities in which Mangala = L-6 from both radix lagna (material animosity) and Chandra lagna (emotional imbalance):

1. Dhanusha radix lagna + Dhanusha Chandra

2. Dhanusha radix lagna + Vrishabha Chandra

3. Dhanusha Chandra + Vrishabha lagna

quoted from ~~ Dr. G. S. Kapoor. (1994). Gems and Astrology . Ranjan Publications, New Delhi. p. 116

Shani

L-2 / L-3

Pragmatic and conventional Shani is a money collector.

family history(2) is typically modest, materialistic, and orderly in nature, with emphasis on perpetuating the traditional lineage rules for social rank and position. The family culture promotes steady, diligent work and adherence to conventional, material values.

Self-made wealth from bhava-3 depends on the disposition of Shani.

For example,

• the USA socialite Marla Maples Trump (briefly the second wife of financiero-televisadero Donald Trump) enjoys the self-made-wealth results of L-3 Shani residing in 2, with swakshetra strength in 2, while an acquisitive Dhanishtha Moon occupies Shani's rashi Kumbha in 3.

• Her birth family is of modest origins. She gained significant money through marriage (Shukra strong in 11), and lawful Shani in the divorce house-2 (death-and-rebirth of the marriage, 8th-from-7th)

Rahu

Remedial and Supportive Gems

Ketu

For Dhanusha lagna, Ketu afflicts the twelfth house = dreams, meditation, psychic communication with the astral plane and its inhabitants, sanctuary spaces, the private bedroom, extended travels

Ketu's effects for Dhanusha lagna depend significantly on Ketu's bhava, rashi, and drishti. Ketu amplifies the effect of any graha who are sharing Ketu's house; and also Ketu magnifies the effects of the lord of His occupied Rashi.

Ketu

Remedial and Supportive Gems

Ketu = co-lord of bhava-12 Vrischika, therefore Ketu-ratna may be a beneficial gem for matters of meditation and withdrawal into the hermit's cave of reflective, non-discriminating awareness.

But even if the native 's only remaining ambition is to eradicate all ambition, Cat's Eye should be used with caution to prevent excessive psychic permeability and destructive (Vrischika) scattering of the mental attention. To merit prescription of the vaidurya, lord of bhava-12 and occupants of 12 should be quite auspiciously disposed.
