"The care of the root of a thing - this is the usage of experienced men. If the root is sound, the juices, which implement the maturing of the fruit, will be protected." ~~ Ramayana, Kishkindha Kanda, Ch. 65 We only have one political party in the U.S., and that is the property party, which has two right wings. ~~ Gore Vidal Domain-4 rules the childhood home, the parents, shelter and protection on mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual levels; the mother's roots, patriotism and the homeland, indoctrination in cultural manners, education, licensing and qualifying examinations, titles, ownership and deeds of property, and vehicles. Most politicians have strength in either domain-4, 4th-from-Chandra, or graha in Karkata rashi. The more of these patriotic factors are present, the stronger is the need, conviction, and rhetoric about homeland roots, security, possession of properties, and defense.
"From the fourth house know the mother, conveyance, relatives, State Protection, house, friend, and arms. " -- Madhya Parashari, Ch. 9 , Shloka 4 "House property, land and agricultural fields, maternal uncle, a sister's son, relatives, friends, conveyance (vehicular), mother, cattle wealth, scents and perfumes, dress material and garments, jewelry, happiness (sukha), the nadir, Hibuka, water, bridge and river are the names to indicate the 4th house. " -- Phaladeepika, Ch1, Shloka 11-12 Chandra = Karaka for Mother vs. Mother = Domain-4 Chandra represents one's emotional Self. The emotional Self is created through one's relationship to one's mother. Therefore Chandra is a karaka for emotion in general; and in particular Chandra is karaka for one's childhood process of building a coherent emotional Self from repeated emotional experiences. Mother is typically the agent and referee of those core emotional experiences, so Mother and Self are very closely aligned. Indeed, the bond of this core survival relationship is so intense and absolute that one may not be able to distinguish oneself from one's mother until age seven or later. Domain-4 represents the childhood home. Because Mother is normally the absolute determiner of conditions in one's childhood home, domain-4 in effect also represents the Mother or primary caregivers who function in the Mother role. But more accurately, domain-4 represents the mother's affairs, conditions in the early childhood home, family lands & property, & all the mother's estate. Whether mother is queen over a few tin pots or a vast field of wealth, mother's estate, and her child's experience of forming its own Self in that estate, is seen in domain-4. The astrological picture of mother, security, lands, vehicles & education encompasses
Whatever results are to be known from Bandhu ... should also be known from the 4th of Chandra..." ~~ BPHS -- Ch. 7, Shloka 39-43 In addition it would be foolhardy to jump to conclusions about mother, security, lands, or vehicles without surveying:
Compare Al Gore and George W. Bush -- both Karka lagna, both Chandra-yuti-Guru in the radix, and both very strong navamsha Chandra placements. Regardless of their political differences, their respective leadership missions are equally patriotic, and equally driven by a deeply emotional love of their homeland.
(in their communicative function, arms/hands belong to Mithuna; the pumping heart which is the seat of the Divine in the physical body actually belongs to Simha/5, although naturally there are very strong associations between the emotional, place-loving heart as the root of being and bandhu bhava. However the 5-4 relationship between heart and chest is similar to the 5-4 relationship between intelligence and education; ) If the Jyotisha nativity features a strong bandhu sthana, expect the fourth chakra region of the physical body to function well. Conversely, malefic planets affecting bandhu bhava may lead to dis-ease in the chest region. Personal Stability Regularity of personal habit may be seen through conditions of bandhu bhava, and also via Chandra and Shani. Shani is not problematic in bandhu Inauspicious graha in domain-4 (such as Kuja or Rahu) Roots that Bind Bandhu bhava or the 4th house is the root or foundation house of the entire rashi chart. While Moon and lagna will describe the native's physical body, Moon and bandhu bhava will tell about the astral or emotional body. Cancer, the natural fourth sign, signifies bondage. Bondage is positive bonding when it manifests in an unconditional supportive relationship. Bondage is positive boundaries when it manifests in owning a house with lands, or feeling patriotic. At a dysfunctional body level, the disease called cancer results from the physical body clinging to waste cells. These sticky waste cells bond to each other to form tumors. Most healers acknowledge that the emotional pattern of clinging to the past accompanies the cellular bondage disease. Mother and Emotional Security Most basic of all roots in human life is connection to mother. Bandhu bhava along with Moon profiles the mother in radix. (Check Dwadashamsha Moon or 4th house for additional details on mother.) Also in bandhu sthana, see mothering, care-taking, stewardship, and nurturing roles of all kinds. Effect of the Mother seen via the child's chart:
Mother provides the core emotional security, the fundamental sense of being good and valuable, and having a place, belonging. If things are going well in the mother house and with the Moon, the native will have good emotional and psychic grounding, and a pleasant emotional nature, which is the basis of all happiness in human life. Usually the step-father or next-father is also the mother's second husband, but there can be other arrangements. The "next" father - however this man gained that position - is indicated by several profile elements, including:
If 8th-from-Surya = strong or receiving strong drishti, the step-father will have a strong personality. Maybe too strong, involvement of Kuja or a dusthamsha lord can be overbearing or combative. If 8th-from-Surya = a dusthamsha, the stepfather will be a problematic agent for the native. Even if 8th-from-Surya = a dusthamsha, benefics in 8th-from-Surya may = benefits coming to native through agency of the stepfather Home, Land, Buildings, Properties Most questions about property ownership, roots in the land, inherited lands, stewardship of the land, buildings, structures, the roof over one's own head (or lack thereof), and the fate of nations, can be answered by examining the fourth house and its attributes. Most permanent possessions such as furniture are included in bandhu, as is hidden treasure. One of the best yogas for material wealth is to have the family values grounded in the land ownership house: "If Dhana's lord is in Bandhu Bhava, the native will acquire all kinds of wealth." ~~ BPHS -- Ch. 24, shloka 16 Other vital forms of shelter and protection include clothing and vehicles of all kinds. Bandhu profiles the quality and quantity of one's personal wardrobe, as well as all details of your road vehicle whether you ride on a donkey, elephant, palanquin, or Ferrari. (However for trade in textiles see Ari bhava.) Road accidents are determined by examining Mangal and Shukra, and any malefic effects on bandhu bhava. The Shodashamsha or D-16 is a fine-tuning for matters of vehicles. D-16 will confirm whether the vehicle would be damaged or not, or whether passengers might be harmed. Wider health-related issues which often stem from a road accident can be seen in D-30 Trimshamsa. Security in society, Socialization via educational instruction, conformity Dhana bhava profiles the family's values. Dhana controls the individual's basic moral education, knowledge of tribal history, and education through the oral tradition. Bandhu bhava profiles the formal education in broad cultural behaviors provided by the larger society, and the social security gained through conforming to public standards. (It is said that the two great desires of human nature are the urge to mate and the urge to conform.) Bandhu bhava rules basic formal education. A strong fourth house signifies that the individual will complete the basic schooling required to hold a government job. In some nations, that means 10th class; in other nations, that means a university diploma; but in all cases, if bandhu is weak, there is a shortfall in formal education which deprives the person of full security in society. Because it profiles the fundamental emotional nature which is determined through the relationship with one's mother, Bandhu is known as the "source of all ambitions." Profession & Public Reputation of spouse/partner As 7th-from-10th, Bandhu also shows the partner behind one's public standing. If bandhu is strong, the couple both have dignity, and together they will support each other as they rise in public status. As 10th-from-7th, bandhu bhava will display the dignity, rank, and professional status of the primary partner in both marriage and business. If the native has a powerful 4th house, your first spouse is likely to have a good public reputation. Concurrently, significations of your personal bandhu bhava -- your home, vehicles, and emotional stability -- are all improved. Troubles in the 4th house, such as unfavorable transits, can wreak havoc on the spouse's or business partner's public reputation, dignity, or professional status. The partner may suffer job loss which has obvious effects on your emotional stability and your home. A steady but low-status 4th house, such as a bandhu bhava owned and/or aspected by Shani, indicates the first spouse's regular work habits. He will serve faithfully in a steady manual labor position, and feel he must carry the world upon his shoulders.. For career of second spouse, see 10th-from-2nd, or labha bhava. Third spouse is 10th-from-9th, or For career of second spouse, see 10th-from-2nd, or labha bhava. Third spouse's career is 10th-from-9th, or Ari bhava. Etc. If the 7th rashi and the 7th navamsha suggest multiple marriages, then we will find the profile of the 4th spouse in Bandhu Bhava. As always, we find the 4th spouse's wealth in 2nd-from-4th or putra bhava, 4th spouse's siblings in 3rd-from-4th or ari bhava, 4th spouse's home & mother in 4th-from-4th or yuvati bhava, etc. Like the nature of Bandhu Sthana itself, the fourth marriage is all about roots. If Bandhu is stable, the 4th marriage partner (when indicated) resembles one's mother. The fourth partner hails from a similar cultural background. [Of course if Rahu or Saturn aspect or occupy Bandhu, the fourth partner could be lower class than native, foreigner, etc. according to occupying malefic. Don't forget to check 4th navamsha!] Ceteris paribus, the fourth marriage is conservative, emotionally stable, tradition-loving, focused on property, family, and belonging. All these traditional implications are that much stronger if rashi L4 is Saturn or Moon. The fourth marriage may not be interesting, overly lively, or a sexual hothouse. But it is grounded in the circle of family love. A loving atmosphere in your home is the foundation for your life. If your divination skills include Tarot cards, you may find a correspondence between the energy state of Bandhu Sthana and Ten of Pentacles.
