Graha in Domain-12
General Results
|
Mendicant Shiva
c.1740
San Diego Museum
of Art - www.sdmart.org
If multiple
karakas occupy house-12, results of each karaka have to be combined and
rebalanced with the other occupying karakas.
Graha in domain-12
require special handling in life.
These graha give direct access to the
astral plane imagery of dreams, emotions, hope, wishes, desires,
fears... Domain-12
is a tremendously creative and intuitive realm. Yet the native must
learn to distinguish the real experience of the astral realm from the
real terrain of the physical realm! Else,
fantasy, phobia or "denial" can consume the intuitive
awareness.
Any graha which is uccha or
swakshetra in domain-12 gives effective communication with the realm of
the ancestors.

Surya
"Head in the clouds"
|
Powerful will to envision a better world and may
be a gifted contemplative philosopher, but the material manifestation of
the house ruled by Surya will be expressed only in the world of
dreams.
"Head in the clouds" and impractical in
profession. Fantasizes oneself in many important or dramatic social
roles, yet indeed remains unrecognized, "hiding one's light under a
barrel".
Confusion between real and imagined social
identities can make a creative theatrical performer or a criminal
impostor, depending on all the other graha in the nativity. If Surya is
lagnesha, may be a public icon bringing the world of private imagination
into the light of publicity. For Nakra lagna, the native's willpower is
low, and one stays hidden in some reclusive place.

Chandra
"heart on a sleeve"
|
Great sensitivity to the creative world of
children and a love of quiet, sanctuary spaces, but the material
manifestation of the house ruled by Guru will be expressed only in the
world of dreams. Favors meditation and touch healing.
The native absorbs emotions from others
sponge-like with very low interpersonal boundaries; "wears their
heart on their sleeve". Wonderful for working with children, the
elderly, any gentle folk in a protected enclosed space. Wonderful for
hands-on healers, massage therapists, any nurturing profession such as
hospital nursing or infant care.
The native is idealistic in regard to their
personal relationships, and may substitute a fantasy ideal of the
beloved for a realistic view during a protracted period of time. One is
frequently shocked and aghast at the impurity of real life, particularly
the vulgar truth regarding one's partners. Will be happiest in
enclosures such as hospitals, monasteries, camps, ashrams, and retreat
centers; ideal for medical work in foreign lands.

Kuja
"passive- aggressive"
|
Marvelous imagination for battles and may be a
gifted war game designer, especially in combination with benefics. Good
strength for physical work in hospitals, camps, prisons, ashrams.
Yet, the material manifestation of the two houses ruled by Kuja
will be expressed only in the world of dreams.
The native is rarely aware of their competitive,
warrior-style feelings, resulting in passive-aggressive behavior.
Repressed anger in the family, skeletons in the closet. Some inclination
toward self-destruction. During periods of Mangala, may travel to
foreign lands in order to engage in competitive events or foreign
wars.
Disturbed sleep due to restlessness and working
out arguments in the dream space. Nightmares or feeling of being
attacked in sleep. Abundant private sexual energy. If other factors
support, Kuja in 12 is a karaka for illnesses due to suppressed anger.
Das / Behari:
Mars externalizes inherent tendencies. The
12th house being the repository of all one's past karmic forces
& future possibilities, the presence of Mars here brings these forces to the surface. This is done in order to neutralize them so that you may be liberated from their binding effect. During this process
you may often be unprepared to bear the pressure; your reaction creates further binding.
Under the influence of Mars, you have the freedom either to liberate yourself from bondage and begin a new life or become more deeply immersed in layers of materiality. But if you have already cleared your past debts
& no further undesirable forces are pending, your spiritual tendencies
surface. In that case, you show genuine tendencies toward spirituality.
Under negative conditions, you may be possessed by anger, lustful behavior, animosity against friends, depravity
& criminality. When these tendencies are bravely faced, you may possibly free yourself to enter the heavenly gates of divine pleasure. If your past is already full of spiritual merit the Martian effect will externalize it,
& you may be an inspiring spirit who helps others progress
courageously.
It is possible that some physical illness may afflict you if you have the seed of such an illness in your karmic past, even while you are engaged in your spiritual mission. Whoever has Mars in the 12th will be fortunate in respect of brother. You may be a
glutton & sexy; but little pleasure from spouse. 2nd marriage comes. You are truthful, generous, excited; founder of some organization. [BPL
note: the following Das/Behari readings are
specific to Kuja in a variety of rashis & drishti positions. E.g.,
if Kuja = L-5 or L-9, without progeny. If Kuja = L-2 or L-11, potential
for financial ruin. L-8 in domain-12 gives death in seclusion. In
the ancient Sanskrita shloka chanting transmission system, the specific
rashis or drishti is implied by the shloka sequence. Here we have to
mentally insert the necessary conditions. Mars in domain-12 is not
inherently catastrophic as these raw quotations can make it sound!]
Sometimes without progeny. Few children, absence of sons. Traveling abroad; debauch; success in 26th year. Frank but somewhat crude.
Danger of falls, poison, accidents. Headaches, blood impurities, secret vice, dyspepsia in old age. No accumulation of wealth; loss through theft, advances or misplacement.
... brings about financial ruin. It attacks with such weapons, so severely
& powerfully that even the strongest body shows the wound marks.
Rumors to defame; danger from thieves; disputes, strife or jealousy; trouble through servants;
fear & sorrow due to dependence. A life of misfortunes. You may suffer immediate loss of wealth. Scandal. Danger from thieves, weapons,
& enemies. Base, & depraved by own actions.
You have a desire to extort others' wealth. Eyes transient, mind restless, mobile cheerful, strong, prosperous, debauch, despondent
& successful in gaining your end. You are hostile; without wealth
& spouse; rude with own family members; aggressive & inconsiderate; always tense. Eye trouble; mean; divulge secret information to the enemies; gets contempt
& imprisonment. Death in seclusion or restraints.
Trouble creator for friends by giving them wrong advice. Extravagant, atheist, cruel, wicked and crafty, boaster. Always travels far. Unfriendly, agitated, disabled, loss of reputation, loss of wealth through thieves
& dacoits. Injury to left eye, ear, hand or foot of the spouse; subject to
feverish complaints.
If this Mars is well posited, the wound marks are short lived, if ill aspected or associated, they remain for a long time.
Death of uncles (paternal). You are wrathful, sexy, crippled, infidel, jealous of friends and relatives. Loss of wealth in the 45th year. Trouble in throat
& ears; blood infection. Discredited, vicious; separation from brother, bitter, vexed, unhappy; tired of traveling; cataract or heat stroke on eyes. Secret enemies, misadventures; chance of accidents; slander, scandal; treacherous enemies; impulsive, tactless, fraudulent; theft
& burglary. Left eye is under danger. Mars: Expenditure through enemies, crimes etc. |

Budha
"nuttier than a fruitcake"
|
Detailed and articulate imagination and may be a
gifted storyteller with an amazing flair for psychological narrative.
Yet, the material manifestation of the two houses ruled by Budha will be
expressed only in the world of dreams.
Success as a travel guide in foreign lands, a
translator of foreign texts, or a therapist in private enclosure. In
Budha's own rashis, an excellent writer on foreign or imaginary subjects
or dream interpreter. Knowledge of the symbols representing patterns in
unconscious memory.
Dreams are verbal and busy, full of information.
Native may talk to oneself or host running conversations of others in
their own mind. Potential for mental illness due to weak mental
boundaries. Requires training to separate one's own thought narrative
from the thought narratives of others.
Das / Behari:
Mercury helps you receive cosmic inspiration
& thus it is always creative. It is a neutral planet: it does not contribute anything of its own, but
transfers subjective messages into objective manifestation &
transmutes objective experiences into subjective awareness.
In this state, ... Mercury can be effective whether the soul is withdrawing from the path of materialization, or whether it is pursuing it.
For this reason, one finds that you are a skilled craftsman, succeeding in what you do, interested in religious activities, but can also deceive others. ...
[Budha/12] contributes only what you have already acquired. [Budha/12]
is good for getting in contact with righteous persons & for warding off losses
& failures. You spend on good causes. The learned persons like you. Your failures come of your own misdeeds. You may even turn against your own people to follow your path. You may feel
hostility towards your own kinsmen or society & go against them. You are true to your word
& learned. You might go against social code to earn your living. Skilled in noble acts. Interest in spiritual things or divine sciences. Ultimately success comes. Fear from government or authority.
Mercury: Expenditure on education. |

Guru
"the road to hell is paved with good
intentions"
|
Amazingly rich & vivid spiritual imagination
and may be a highly gifted intuitive healer. Yet the material
manifestation of the two houses ruled by Guru will be expressed only in
the world of dreams.
The stronger is Guru by rashi, the more expansive
the native's wisdom & charity fantasies will be.
From domain-12, Guru casts a weakened but
imaginative drishti upon domains-4, -6, and -8. Expansive fantasies
enliven the expectations of a grander home (4), a more extensive illness
or debt (6), and a greater cache of hidden assets (8).
Domain-12 is Brihaspati's natural house. Guru
enjoys this placement & here He facilitates easy communication with
the spirits of one's ancestors. Excellent for the professional
spiritualist and psychic medium.
Disinterested in children except as beneficiaries
of their charitable vision.
The native may enjoy a wonderful vision of oneself
as a world healer, giving abundantly to all who seek ... Such a fantasy
may have realistic aspects if the native is so employed, but more often
the native travels that famous road which is "paved with good
intentions".

Shukra
|
Splendid artistic imagination, and bodes well for
valuable art & music production in the confines of studio or
sanctuary space., but the material manifestation of the two houses ruled
by Shukra will be expressed only in the world of dreams.
Abundant sensual skill makes a master of "bed
pleasure", but the material manifestation of the two houses ruled
by Shukra will be expressed only in the world of dreams.
The stronger is Shukra by rashi, the more powerful
the native's luxury & pleasure fantasies will be. Danger of
extravagant spending when Shukra is uccha or swakshetra, as native
confuses the fantasy of luxurious wealth with the reality of
their actual budget.
One may enjoy a vision of personal beauty &
seductive attractiveness as a lover or fashion icon, a sensational
talent in music or art, or just a very nice person especially liked by
women.
More often, because the effect of true Shukra is
submerged in the subconscious or astral perceptions, the native has
inflated romantic expectations in love relationships and friendships
with women.
For Mesha and Nakra lagna, signifies deep
animosity from the spouse, which is met with attempts at "bed
pleasure" healing and consistent denial.
Das / Behari:

Shani
"skeletons in the closet".
|
Malefics in domain-12 generally give suppression
and denial. More so with oppressive Shani. Many "skeletons in the
closet". No patience for fantasy, imagination, creativity,
embroidering of tales, or psychological sensitivities. Cannot process
grief, has no permission to release or to feel rage. Thus diseases of
liver and lung are found here.
The two houses ruled by Shani will be expressed
only in the world of dreams. From domain-12 Shani also slows and
restrains savings wealth (domain-2), illness & debt (domain-6), and
(hidden assets) domain-8. Although the native will not save much money,
one will also not suffer much debt. Often a modest earning
salary-worker.
Tough guy, whether male or female. Excellent for
hard-tack slash-and-burn positions in subsistence agriculture, poverty
zones, refugee camps, areas of devastation and death, prison guard,
executioner, other restrictive and restraining professions.
Does not dream and has limited memory of current
life events. Good at ending things, has no regrets at the end of a
relationship. Dislikes story telling, insists on facts. Excellent
criminal detective, if combined with Budha. Benefits refugee &
immigration work, helps one to leave one's former country or family
completely behind.
Das / Behari:
You are persistent in getting what you want. Spirituality may be attractive, but you will probably see such thoughts as your own
& pursue them not out of devotion to another person, but rather out of devotion to your own path.
The voice of the mortal body is loud, urging you to pleasures. You are an intense person in a number of ways--both positive
& negative. You associate with the average, the hurt & unhappy. You have a hard time with standard morality.
Watch out for lung ailments & save money during Jupiter major period for harder times in Saturn major. The right eye is in some danger due to Saturn in the 12th house.
You may be able to be a popular leader in some way. At times you are rather dry, shameless
& merciless, in the perceptions of others. This is good if you are in such lines of work (such as law enforcement etc.). It can make for a lack of beauty
& charm in relationships however. You may find gains & success in a land or state other than that of your birth. You are reserved, like peace
& seclusion, laborious jobs. |

Rahu |
Depends on Rahu's lord.
Will challenge taboos of behavior in the private
world. Adventurous and exploratory - whether the results are good or
evil, depends on Rahu's lord. Intensely ritualistic and may indulge in
black magic or predatory superstitious practices if the placement is
very negative. High permission to breach
cultural boundaries and roam in foreign lands. Effective channel for
foreign spirits who wish to invade the native's subconscious, so special
protections are required for psychic work.
The material manifestation of the houses ruled by
Rahu's lord are not harmed.
Das / Behari:

Ketu |
Depends on Ketu's lord.
Double detachment. Native is highly sensitive to
communications from spirits and presences without bodies. May not be
inclined toward any specific spiritual practice, but tends to wander
from temple to temple, or landscape to landscape, just looking.
Favors wandering in foreign lands, long retreats,
deep meditations, and extraordinary psychic channeling. If this native
is engaged in psychic work one should request an outside grounding
control to ensure protection from hitch-hiking or predatory spirits.
Tends to be a loner and while one can channel spiritual information from
the ancestors for the benefit of others, one rarely can do this service
for one's own self. Does not connect consciously to the world of dreams,
simply lives with this background awareness until asked to give a
read-out.
The material manifestation of the houses ruled by
Ketu's lord are not harmed.
