Three Hundred Important Combinations

92. Damini Yoga (same as Dama Yoga)

all seven graha distributed across seven rashi

"Results = The person will be highly charitable, always helping others and a protector of cattle. "

Ketu in bhava 8 = Rahu in bhava 2 Ambivalence (Ketu) toward occult knowledge and hidden resources + desire (Rahu) to be recognized as a holder of treasuries of wealth or knowledge
Arudha of Karma Bhava - "Karmaa Pada" = Sahaja bhava

= public imagery or associations = unoccupied, lord = Guru the teacher = publications, administration, planning, scheduling, assignments.

  • Public glamour is minimal. Karma pada = bhava-3 = is empty. Lord of Karma Pada = L-3+L-6 Guru, an inauspicious graha associated with servitude, relationship problems, outcasts and foreigners, and the daily grind of business administration.

  • the public illusion- Arudha =Karma Pada = promotes attributes of teaching (Guru) and publications (3).

  • Lord Guru receives drishti of all three malefics (Mangala, Shani, + Rahu by association) therefore Guru suffers a reduced scope of action.

  • Guru's association with the powerfully independent and regal L-11 Surya (which also unfortunately gets the restrictive drishti of the papa-graha) contributes a small aura of independent authority.

  • Karma Pada = Vrischika bhava-2 is rather difficult and exotic, consisting of the treasury-house which stores wealth and knowledge occupied by a Rahu-Shani pair in parivartamsha with the bhava-pati Mangala. This house will eventually yield a strange and powerful profession and reputation for some variety of exotic knowledge of history and languages; however there will be many torturous twists and turns due to the interaction of the three empowered malefics all concentrated upon one bhava. Luckily this bhava measures 9th-from-Chandra. Shani permits a final success only after endurance, only after maturity hard-won, and only after years of disciplined and unrewarded study.

Lord of karma bhava = Chandra

Chandra occupies 9th-from-karma bhava

9th-from-chandra = bhava-2 Vrischika = arudha of karma bhava

The public impression of this native's dignity via reputation = the complex situation in radix bhava-2

in radix bhava-2 mark Yogakaraka L-4+L-5 Shani yuti Rahu, in parivartamsha with Shani's enemy Kuja, in the 2nd domain of speech and transmission of stored values

the native is a mouthpiece for an ancient, healing, tantrik knowledge tradition

The public perceives the legitimacy of the transmission but the public might not accept or embrace the information itself, due to the foreign Rahu content and the general malefic associations of Shani and Kuja.

Overall, despite the dicey nature of the job, the auspice for respect arising from transmission of traditional values along with the healing capacity of Vrischika, is favorable for public reputation.

Drishti upon L-10 Chandra

  • drishti upon L-10 Chandra from uchcha L-9+L-12 Budha in 12 (wise analysis of psychic-material bridge-ways)

  • drishti upon L-10 Chandra from Rahu in 2 (foreign cultural knowledge, mystical or tantrik knowledge-base from Vrischika; scholarly qualities from the L-4+L-5 Yogakaraka Shani)

  • drishti upon 10th-from-Chandra = karma pada = Sahaja bhava = L-3+L-6 Guru, handicapped by malefic drishti. Auspice for public recognition of a teacher, but on a much reduced level of public apprehension or "fame".

Why vocation = Teacher?

  1. lord of 10th navamsha = VargottamshaGuru= karaka teacher-preacher

  2. Shukra lagnesha in 4th from Chandra = parent + schoolteacher

  3. Shukra occupies 9 = universities + temples

  4. Guru in 11 = economy = income + L-11 Surya

  5. L-10 from Chandra = Dhanushya ruled by Guru = sahaja bhava = skills + crafts = messaging + trainings

  6. method of earnings = L-11 from Chandra = bandhu bhava = school-teaching, cultural education


Guru = lord of L-10 Chandra

Guru + L-11 swakshetra Surya,

  • receiving drishti of L-4+L-5 Shani (education, authorship)

  • receiving drishti of L-2+L-7 Mangala (speech and values; advising and contractual relationships)

  • Teaching profession practiced in mahadasha of Shukra, Surya and Chandra

Guru drishti to:

  • bhava-3 = communications, teamwork, planning, meetings, publications

    Guru "owns and operates" the "krama bhava" - a house of step-wise process, going , proceeding , following a regular course, going gradually , by degrees

    bhava-3 = a teaching-training house concerned with conversations and transmissions of immediate knowledge in the form of "information".

    • 10th-from-Chandra, career

  • bhava-5 = intelligence, authorship, performance arts, theatre

    • 12th-from-Chandra = imagination, foreign lands

bhava-7 = partnerships, contracts, exchanges, advising relationships

  • 2nd-from-Chandra = language, knowledge

~~ BPHS - Ch. 24, shloka 9

"If Lagna's Lord is in Dharma Bhava,

the native will be fortunate, dear to people, be a devotee of Shri Vishnu,

be skillful, eloquent in speech,

and be endowed with wife, sons, and wealth."

Quick assessment of strength of House Lords:

L-2+L-7 Mangala - L-2+L-9 from Chandra-Meena

  • from Chandra lagna, Kuja = L-2 [knowledge hoards, languages, speech] and L-9 [wisdom teachings,priesthood] .

  • from radix lagna, Kuja = L-2 [knowledge hoards, languages, speech] and L-7 [partnerships, contracts,Advising relationships,agreements]

  • In navamsha, Kuja = L-6 [Arguments, illness] and L-11 [networks, gains]

  • Kuja receives drishti of the career-lord = lord of the 10th navamsha = Guru

  • Parivartamsha Yoga: L-2+L-7 Kuja + YogakarakaL-4+L-5 Shani [L-2+L-9 from Chandra + L-11+L-12 from Chandra]

  • Kuja enjoys Parivartamsha Yoga with YogakarakaL-4+L-5 Shani = indoctrination-education, creative intelligence

  • from Chandra, the parivartamsha exchanges Kuja's dynamic knowledge-production skills with Shani's responsibilities = L-11+L-12 = achievements, earnings, international duties, tasks in foreign lands

~~ B. V. Raman. (1992, 4th ed.). A Catechism of Astrology. p. 28.:

"Qu. 34: When Saturn falls in Mars' Sapta Vargas, and Mars in Saturn's Sapta Vargas,do they become strong?

Ans: You cannot lay down any hard and fast rules in judging the strength or otherwise of planets when there is an exchange of vargas between two natural malefics. "

  • If it is a case of Parivarthana Yoga(interchange of places), this considerably strengthens it.

  • In cases other than a parivarthana, due weight must be given to their lordship and similar factors.

  • When Mars is a Yogakaraka and Saturn happens to be in Mars' vargas, then Saturn is automatically rendered strong.

  • As to whether such strength expresses itself in good or bad respects depends on the horoscopic disposition of Saturn though by virtue of Saturn's inherent malefic nature, a measure of evil is bound to predominate."

Parivartamsha yoga of L-2+L-7 Kuja + L-4+L-5 Shani + Rahu

  • Parivartamsha amplifies the total power of the three most virulent natural malefics, by exchanging their energy, so that every graha in the nativity receives malefic influence

  • Shani drishtito Rahu-Ketu, and Surya + Guru.

  • Kuja drishti oKetu, Surya + Guru, Budha.

  • Rahu drishti oChandra, Ketu.

Downside:

  • In addition to receiving malefic drishti, Surya + Guru Occupy 6th-from-Chandra. whileSurya = L-6 from Chandra.

  • Periods L-3+L-6 Guru(two malefic drishti) and periods of L-11 Ravi(two malefic drishti) may be especially difficult on the mental, emotional and material planes. Periods of Ketu(three malefic drishti to bhava-8) may be critically difficult on the material plane.

Upside:

  • Shani = Yogakarakafor Thula lagna .

    • Shani's drishti to Ketu, Surya, and Gurucarries the educational and genius energyof the L-4+L-5, as well as the energy of the L-11+L-12 from Chandra

  • Atmakaraka Kuja = L-2 from Chandra and L-2 from radix lagna. Also L-9 from Chandra.

    • Kuja's drishti to Ketu, Surya, Guru, and Budha carries the historical - linguistic knowledgeof "double L-2" Kuja, as well as the religious knowledge of L-9 from Chandra.

Rahu:

  • Due to Rahu's involvement in the parivartamsha, Rahu amplifies all the upside and all the downsideof both Shani and Kuja.

Timing of effects:

  • Kuja's influence is very widespread in this nativity.

    • Atmakaraka Kuja gives strong fruits from His core character not only during

      Mangala Mahadasha.

    • Also Mangala's effects will be strong in the periods of graha which occupy a navamsha of Kuja (Chandra, Shukra, and Ketu).

    • Also, Mangala periods evoke the characteristics of the graha which are engaged in parivartamsha with Kuja: Shani and Rahu.

Public Reputation (10)

The public dignity, social recognition, visibility, or fame may be large or small, strong or weak, but each individual will have some manifestation of a public image.

  • Atmakaraka L-2 Kujaoccupies Kumbha = Arudha lagna - unique soul, features *research* into large-scale energy networks

  • Public image = 10th-from- Arudha lagna = Vrischika = radix bhava-2 = "storage" = Skandha= wealth, family, stored knowledge, lineage

  • Shani/Rahu in bhava-2= foreignness, taboo, social structure; Shani = YogakarakaL-4+L-5 for intelligence and education, Shani = traditional knowledge

  • native is famous as exponent of

    • foreign divination systems (Rahu-Vrischika)

    • in global philosophical and case-study format research context(Kumbha, "science")

    • psychic best practicein educational settings (Rahu/Shani = L-4+L-5),

    • case-study or data-centric approach(Shani)

    • to tantrik, psychiatric or psycho-tantric materials(Vrischikha)

    • international adviser in both university setting and independent consulting practice

~~ Mantreswara's Phaladeepika- Chapter 5, Shloka

"In any nativity, if the lord of the 10th house is situated in Mars' Navamsha,

the person shall earn a living through metals,

serving for fighting, battles, cooking, lands, gold,

causing troubles to others, weapons, adventure,

association with wicked men, spying, or through theft."

In this nativity, professional Jyotishi practice may be framed as a form of psychic observation which could be characterized as espionage, a skill of vyaya bhava.

  • Signification for the psychiatric or forensic dimension of the work is especially strong re: the invasive psychological and journalistic character of neechcha Chandra in navamsha.

The physical associations of Kuja are reduced in this nativity. Kuja's theoretical-conceptual nature in radix Kumbha, and Mangala's advanced mentalization in Mithuna navamsha, takes Kuja away from the earthiest fleshly realm (where He is happiest) and transports His competitive, even warlike energies into the airy domains of large-network (Kumbha) and conversation-transaction (Mithuna).

At the 'turn of the century' in the early 1900's the father of the mother's mother experienced financial problems and committed suicide by hanging.

Mother's mother = count 4 backwards from Chandra = bhava-3 Dhanushya

maternal grandmother's father = count backwards 9 from Dhanushya = Vrishabha-8 containing Ketu

Ketu the chidakaraka = neck-breaking and other mentally-scattered events of decapitation, dismemberment and surrender.

Conditions of death of the mother's mother's father = count 8 backwards from Vrishabha-8 = Thula "the yoke". When the living head is yoked by rope to a fixed object and the agent makes a sudden separation (Ketu) from their platform of support, the yoke holds the head against gravity and the neck is broken, causing death.

Nakshatra directives for happiness and satisfaction:

Radix lagna = Bisaja = tendency toward shocking, splitting revelations.

Psychological work with trauma and healing, medical diagnosis, counseling professions, investigative journalism, divination, intuitive and clairvoyant work, and scientific research are all suitable. But do not expect consistent output or steady routine, at least until the end of life.

  • Navamsha lagna "swamsha" = Punarvasu = soul's desire to feel fertility, development, growing things from the Earth Energy. Motherhood, gardening, and caring for family or students should spiritually inform this native's career plan.

  • Radix Chandra = Uttarabhadrapada, pursuing destiny to feel Established in Earth's Aura and grounded in the cosmos. the native requires protection from overcrowding (physical and psychic) and engulfment. Career path should provide a sanctuary workspace, opportunity to build a reputation, and avenues of expression for their famous "reading and writing" skills. Literary authorship, publications .

  • Navamsha Chandra = Anuradha . the native intuitively seeks out companions with the qualities of friendliness. These are alliance-makers and negotiators, often found in diplomatic, brokering, counseling/advising, and legal environments.

Degree on the Navamsha Lagna = 29 Mithuna (Gemini) = spiritual constitution, service to others

According to M.C. Jain in The Stars and your Future(p 42), 29 Mithuna =the "Degree of Seership":

Symbol: A university professor lecturing to his students

  • "Denotes one of simplicity of character gifted with magnetic fire

    • and knowledge of the power of invisible forces.

  • Against him aggression will avail nothing,

    • and the aggressor will find that he is conquered.

  • This degree provides an aptitude for studying human nature."

Degree on the Dashamsha Lagna = 29 Karkata (Cancer) = professional purpose


According to M.C. Jain in The Stars and your Future(p 53), 29 Karkata =the "Degree of Obstruction":

Symbol: A man in prison, a ray of light flowing through the bars, on which a little bird stands singing

  • "Denotes one liable to be bound, hands, soul, and body, who will be restricted in action and desire.

    • But even so he may yet release his true self and meet the force flowing from the fountain head.

  • Thus, though one side may frown and Obstruct him,

  • the other will smile and Release him.

  • If afflicted, the native is subject to danger from secret enemies and jealous foes,

    • in peril of an untimely end.

  • This degree also rules over botany, geology, wild life, and collecting."

Degree on the Radix Lagna = 30 Thula (Libra) = self character


According to M. C. Jain in The Stars and your Future(p 93),

30 Thula=the "Degree of Sluggishness":

  • "Denotes one who will have to wake up

    • Or he will be elbowed out of everything by others more vigorous.

  • He is possessed of good mental qualities,

    • is well mannered and good natured,

  • but he allows others to take advantage of him

    • nd he will suffer from deceit and unfairness."

Planetary Yogas: fromB.V. Raman, Three Hundred Important Combinations

  • Resultsand Well-formed organs, majestic appearance, good reputation, polite, generous, self-respect, fond of dress and sense pleasures. In the later life, renunciation and austerity."

7. Adhi Yoga (partial) [Guru in 6th-from-Chandra; Budha in 7th-from-Chandra]

  • Definition: If benefics are situated in the 6th, 7th and 8th from the Moon, the combination goes under the name of Adhi Yoga.

  • Results: The person will be polite and trustworthy, will have an enjoyable and happy life, surrounded by luxuries and affluence, will inflict defeats on his enemies, will be healthy and will live long.

  • Remarks: ... All these benefics [Shukra, Guru, Budha] may be in the 6th, 7th or 8th or in two houses or all of them may be in any one of these houses.

23 Bhadra Yoga [uchcha Budha in 7th-from-Chandra, in kendra from the Moon]

  • Definition: Bhadra Yoga is caused by the disposition of Mercury in a Kendra which should be identical with his own or exaltationsign.

  • Results: The person born in Bhadra Yoga will be strong, will have A lion-like face, well-developed chest, well-proportioned limbs, will be taciturn, will help relatives and will live up to a good old age.

18 Obhayachari Yoga [uchcha Budha in 2nd-from-Surya]

  • Definition: If planets other than the Moon are present on either side of the Sun, Obhayachari is caused.

  • Results. -The person will be an eloquent speaker. Will have well-proportioned limbs, will take delight in everything, will be liked by all, wealthy and famous.

12 Sakata Yoga

  • Definition: The Moon in the 12th, 6th or 8th from Jupitergives rise to Sakata Yoga.

  • Results: the native loses fortune and may regain it. He will be Ordinary and insignificant. He will suffer from poverty, privation and misery. He will be stubborn and hated by relatives. [Raman says that

    "Sakatayogajatasya Yogobhangam Pade- pade"is more the rule with this yoga - the person loses his fortune "

    Pade- pade" -- now and again. It is not a combination for lifelong poverty.]

16. Subha-Vesi Yoga - [uchcha Budha in 2nd-from-Ravi]

  • Definition: If planets other than the Moon occupy the 2nd from the Sun, Vesi Yoga is formed.

  • Results: The person will be fortunate, happy, virtuous, famous and aristocratic.

29. Bharathi Yoga [uchcha L-9+L-12 Budha = lord of navamsha of L-11 Surya+ L-2 Kuja, and Kuja = parivartamsha exchange with the L-5 Shani]

  • Definition: The lord of Navamsha occupied by the lord of the 2nd, 5th, and 11th is exalted and in conjunction with the 9th lord

  • .Results: World famous, a reputed scholar, fond of music, romantic, handsome, attractive, religiously inclined and bewitching eyes.

  • Remarks: Three Yogas are given rise to inasmuch as the 9th lord cannot be in simultaneous conjunction with all the three Navamsa lords. Therefore Bharathi Yoga may be said to exist (a) if the lord of Navamsha occupied by the 2nd lord is exalted and in conjunction with the 9th lord, (b) if the lord of the Navamsa occupied by the 5th lord is exalted and combines with the 9th lord, and (c) if the lord of the Navamsha occupied by the 11th lord is exalted and combines with the 9th lord,. Bharathi Yoga is not quite a common combination.

103. Duryoga

"Definition. If the lord of the 10th is situated in the 6th, 8th or 12th,Duryoga is caused.

Results: The person will not derive the fruits of his own bodily exertion; he will be looked down by others; highly selfish and always intent upon deceiving others, he will live in a foreign place.

Remarks: The 10th is the pivot of the horoscope and its lord should be strong if one's life is to be tolerably happy. When the 10th lord is in dushthamshas he will lose his vitalityand is therefore said to confer on the native just those qualities which render himinsignificant in the eyes of the public. Harming others, selfishness and gluttony are not qualities conducive to making one virtuous.

One who has Dur-yoga is supposed not to derive the benefits of his own bodily exertions. Duryoga seems to indicate that one would earn his livelihood by manual labour.

Of the three Dusthamsha, the 12th seems to be the least malefic so far as this Yoga is concerned, because whilst depriving one of the fruits of his labours, it will at least give him noble qualities and therefore a certain amount of respect in society."


Sakata

(BPL note, "Sakata yoga" not to be confused with the "Sat-kalatra" yoga which gives a noble and virtuous spouse)

Sakata Yoga is one of the dreaded yogas formed by the sixth-eighth relationship between the Moon and Jupiter, especially if none of them is in a kendra position.

As a result of [Sakata] yoga, the native

  • loses fortunebut may regain it,

  • he will be Ordinary and insignificant.

  • He will suffer from poverty, privation and misery.

  • He will be stubborn and hated by relatives.

~~ Bepin Behari and Madhuri Behari, Introduction to Esoteric Astrology. (1986, second ed.) Sagar Pub. New Delhi. p. 225

Attributes of career-karaka Surya:
  • Owns and occupies gainful radix L-11= community, assemblies, marketplace, networks

  • Ravi = karaka for rationality, moral authority, and individuality

  • Ravi receives auspicious drishti from friend Kuja, and hostile drishti from enemy Shani

  • in dashamsha, Surya = L-2; in navamsha, Surya = L-3

  • Occupies navamsha lagna, but neechcha in 4th dashamsha

Kuja and Budha as Career Directors:
  • Kuja dominates the personality-components, along with lieu-tenant Budha

  • Kuja controls about a third of the career lagnas.

  • Kuja enjoys parivartamsha yoga with YogakarakaL-4+L-5 Shani, And Kuja receives drishti of Surya/Guru from gainful bhava-11.

  • The parivartamsha yoga is certainly helpful, but the core character of Kujaremains quite eccentric and philosophicalinKumbha rashi.

  • Considering also the uchcha Budha in the occult bhava-12which is tasked to articulate a meditative and imaginative path, the native may have trouble retaining mainstream employment.

  • This person's sincere intellectual interestsare outside the conventional realm of scholarly and scientific inquiry.

  • Uchcha Budhaowns five key graha+Lagna in the D-1/D-9

  • Uchcha Budha receive drishti from the dominant career lord, Kuja.

  • Prognosis:

The radix characteristics of Kuja and Budha - - broadly characterized as "eccentric creativity, occult studies, and research writing" -- will to a large extent determine this native's career.

Attributes of Kuja:

The physical associations of Kuja are reduced in this nativity.

  • Competitive, warrior Kuja must negotiate the abstract terrain of Kumbha's theoretical-conceptual networks.

  • In addition, Mangala experiences advanced mentalization in Mithuna navamsha,

  • The arid, physically disengaged environments of Kumbha and Mithuna remove Kuja from the fleshly animal realm

  • Mithuna-Kumbha channel Mangala's hunting, pursuing behaviors into the airy domains of conversation-transaction (Mithuna) and large-network systems (Kumbha)

Therefore all direct-action effects of Kuja, including the influence He wields as the navamsha lord of Chandra radix-10, are weakened through mentalization and scientific abstraction.

Further weakening due to very late degree in the rashi, = 29:6 of Kumbha. Mangala = purvabhadrapada Nakshatra . (padaa-3)

Das says, "Your outward expression is mischievous but not inwardly. In other words, you think one thing but do another. You are bold, courageous and inclined to do research and finally attain name, fame and reputation."

  • radix L-2+L-7 (malefic maraka)

  • lord of dashamshabhava-10

  • lord of navamsha of both: radix L-10 Chandra and radix L-1 Shukra

  • Atmakaraka

  • karaka for competition, conflict, exploration and hunting

  • Occupies radix house-5 (intelligence, creativity, speculation)

  • Kuja's attributes in the rashi of Kumbha include:

    • vigorously active philosophicalconceptualizing,

    • frustration of physical movement (Kuja is uncomfortably restrained and slowed in Shani's rashi)

    • The hunting/exploring/competitive instincts are directed into the world of abstract thought,

    • stretching and pushing of accepted boundaries and protocols

    • challenging common assumptions or rules of procedure,

    • quest for the conceptually innovative, seeking new paths,

    • scientific research orientation,

    • Activity in electro-magnetic device networks,

    • margin-right: 3; margin-top: 3; margin-bottom: 3" endency toward nervous exhaustionfrom doing battle with conceptual obstacles

  • Kuja's attributes in the 3rd Pada of Purvabhadrapada Nakshatra (ruled by Guru/Ravi) include:

    • contradictory statements of purpose

    • courageous

    • research orientation [this attribute is increased dramatically by Kuja in Kumbha rashi and Mithuna navamsha]

    • eventually, success in scientific innovation or philosophical argument

  • parivartamsha yoga with YogakarakaL-4+L-5 Shani

    • parivartamsha yogas are stabilizing and strengthening, but when they strengthen two malefics the result is nevertheless malefic in terms of increasing *work*.

    • Result = doubled resistance and effortfor the native regarding matters of indoctrination and licensing levels of education (4), creative expression of divine intelligence (5), wealth hoarding, acquisition of knowledge of history and languages (2); marriage, agreements, and alliances (7)

    • Kuja acquires "virtual Vrischika" which adds a tantrik and psychologicalquality to the research orientation

  • Auspicious drishti from gainful bhava-11 friends Surya and Guru

    • concern with community ethics and politics (drishti from Simha/Surya/Guru)

    • ego volatility - Simha/Kumbha is a delicate lagna ruled by the two enemies, Ravi and Shani

  • in dashamsha, Mangala = YogakarakaL-5+L-10

  • Kuja occupies navamsha lagna, 5th Dashamsha

  • professions = teaching philosophy, conceptual scientific research, research medicine, homeopathic medicine, mind-body research, theoretical work of any kind, planning and organizing large-scale events, operating educational associations, connecting electro-magnetic devices and sharing research via global networks

  • medical applications are much enhanced by Meena=Chandra = bhava-6

Attributes of L-9+L-12 Budha:

  • L-4+L-7 from Chandra lagna

  • Budha receives drishti of Mangala

  • karaka for communication, mentality and intimate relationships

  • Owns and occupies radix house-12, uchcha (imagination, loss of identity, sanctuary, foreign lands)

  • hostile drishti from enemy Chandra, and career-karaka Kuja

  • in navamsha, Budha = L-1+L-4

  • in dashamsha, Budha = L-3+L-12

  • Occupies 9th navamsha, 12th dashamsha

  • Budha receives dashamsha drishti of Kuja

  • uchcha Budha = radix L-8+L-11. Budha is gainful and occult.

  • uchcha Budha = L-4+L-7 from Chandra. Budha is educational and alliance-building.

  • drishti upon Budha from L-9 Chandra, gives religious sensibility and gains from mutually fruitful aspect of L-9+L-11

  • mental-emotional tensionbetween Chandra and Budha:

    • sensitive Chandra feels friendly toward chatty Budha

    • but mentalistic Budha sees intuitive Chandra as an enemy

    • Budha also receives drishti of Kuja, some impulsive speech

Data:

This middle-aged native has served as a teacher and trainer in commercial and academic settings. Her formal education is in the fields of religious philosophy (lagnesha Shukra/Mithuna/9) and linguistics (uchcha Budha/12). She has taught in those subjects and multiple additional subjects (Mithuna) at the college level and in community and corporate institutional settings in a variety of countries and cultures (Mithuna).

This native normally earns income through the service of describing and explaining things (uchcha Budha) in the role of an intellectual/ethical authority figure (Surya).

  • Kuja = eccentric, esoteric and conceptual in Kumbha.

  • Parivartamsha yoga = two malefics Kuja and Shani. It does strengthen the ability to defend oneself against enemies, but it also makes the proving battlesa necessary and permanent element of the incarnation.

  • Uchcha Budha is highly organized and occasionally gainful, due to Budha's natural commercial inclinations.

  • Surya is regally independent and morally authoritative. Native is well-connected through interlocking global communities.

This native has developed an eccentric, intellectualized, and highly independent research career.

In addition to writing(L-3 Guru in gainful bhava-11), she earns through speaking. Audio recordings of her lectures are a primary source of income, due to the powerful parivartamsha yoga between L-2 and L-5.


However, the eccentric Kuja and authoritative Suryainfluences push this native so far out of the mainstream that she would not likely find a place in conventional business or academia.

This despite the powerful intelligence of both Surya and Budha.

Somewhat jokingly this native self-identifies with the modern educational disability label "oppositional-defiant". In practice this label applies to students who pick fights with their teachers and are unable to tolerate authority in any form (generally the extreme types end up in prison). Of course this is an exaggeration, and this native works successfully with authority when necessary. But there is a kernel of truth to the designation due to the dominant, highly independent and self-expansive Surya-Guru combination, agitated by Kuja (however tamed by drishti from Shani.)

Kuja is just too dominant, too intensely conceptual, and too much energized by the regally independent Surya to tolerate a restrictive employment for very long.

  • In fact, except for one 2-year Kuja bhukti in her 35 working years of life, this native has always been either a sole proprietor of her own business or an "independent contractor" to institutions - never an employee.

Due partly to Kuja's signification as Atmakarakainvolved a very peculiar yoga - the parivartamsha which converts a deeply hostile rashi of Kumbha into more comfortable Vrischika-influenced house - her professional path is both personalized and spiritualized.

Her professional identity is also decidedly family-based bhava-2 partner in the parivartamsha yoga). She is first and foremost a mother, but also a professional writer and contract language tutor, as well as the author of these Jyotisha pages.

Kuja featuring all this unusual plumage in bhava-5 of "creative intelligence" suggests a teaching and literary career in conceptual philosophy, or other highly complex and abstract topics. In fact this native is an advanced student of esoteric philosophy; as well as a contract teacher, housewife and mother. Her professional office is inside her home (Kuja/4).

(Who could propose a more eccentric, independent, career than professional Jyotisha?!)

Lord of Radix L-10 = Chandra = navamsha of Mangala

Native follows an unusual pattern of earning through a rashi of Mangala:

The peculiar expression of a Mangala-driven career can be explained by examination of the peculiar nature of Mangala in the nativity. Mangala not only occupies a rashi of Shani but also engages in a parivartamsha with His lord bringing both the creative-expressive powers of a scientific 5th house and the articulatory, historical interests of the 2nd house to the fore.

Mangala is also has lordship over Rahu, and Rahu is involved in the parivartamsha, so that the historical material becomes exotic, and somewhat taboo, which Shani imposes a systems viewpoint, and Shani insists on the most scientific possible (and often the slowest possible) articulation of the knowledge.

Phaladeepika - Chapter 5, Shloka 4:

"If the lord of the 10th house occupies the Navamsha of Mangala , The sources of income or livelihood will be through:

  • metals,

  • serving for fighting battles,

  • cooking, lands, gold ,

  • causing troubles to others, weapons,

  • Adventure,

  • Association with wicked men,

  • spying, or through theft "

Surya

Swakshetra Surya is gainful on bhava-11 despite being dominated by combust inauspicious L-3+L-6 Guru.

Dashamsha Surya is neechcha, and yuti Rahu - giving amplified results of lagnesha+L-8 Shukra.

In radix, Shukra is concerned with issues of identity (lagnesha) and occult processes (bhava-8, containing psychic Ketu).

  • he dashamsha association of Surya with Shukra, amplified by Rahu, suggests that the native will invest public moral authority (Surya) in expertise grounding a profitable business (Guru/11) regarding matters of social identity and occult or hidden information.

Radix L-10 Chandra

L-10 Chandra occupies bhava-6 in the rashi of Guru. Chandra's lord Brihaspati is dignified in Simha in the profitable 11th domain.

Although Chandra is very humble in bhava-6 of social conflict, medicine and servitude, the negative health implications are somewhat relieved by Brihaspati's dignity in precisely 6th-from-6th.

Chandra does deliver illness and debt into the incarnation, but these experiences generate wisdom (Brihaspati) and the wisdom gained serves to fuel the native 's gency in the marketplace.


Chandra is adequate to provide public dignity, in 9th-from-10th = bhava-6. Ari bhava is an arthahouse concerned with material matters.

Chandra occupies Uttarabhadrapada Nakshatra , which is also a gainful Nakshatra . However natives of Uttarabhadrapada are famed for their fortified residences and need for deep seclusion,due to profound intolerance for engulfment.

his native may have a distinguished and profitable career. Yet Chandra in Uttarabhadrapada, ruled by the deeply resting and contemplative Ahirbudhnya, must have assurance of protection from the "inquiring mind" of the public as well as time for uninterrupted deep thought.

Career is defined as world service (L-10 in bhava-6). Some great leaders such as Franklin D. Roosevelt have had this call to serve the masses as well. The job is never well-praised due to the animosity and conflict emitting from bhava-6.


Chandra in Meena rashi in bhava-6 = clinical medicine. Typically, when Chandra occupies bhava-6 + a guidance rashi of Guru = inspiration for the victim class, teaching about conflict and imbalance.

Each person presents as a clinical case (6) seeking descriptive logical argument and prescription (Budha).

L-10 navamsha = Guru

Chandra in bhava-6 implies a longer, harder road to profitability. Yet, despite the evil portfolio of Ari bhava, a path toward achievement is created by Chandra's lord Guru = lord of 10th navamsha. Guru as primary significator of career = ethical = gainful.


Although it is a secondary level of observation which is not definitive, complete career analysis should seek confirmation from role of 10th-from-10th = Yuvati bhava

  • bhava-7 = Mesha.

  • L-2+L-7 Kuja = lord of 10th dashamsha

  • Kuja's eccentric character has been articulated above

  • the native does considerable consulting on matters of bhava-7 and bhava-2, including marriage/relationships, family, and death. The approach is eccentric, scientific, and conceptual (Kuja/Kumbha).

  • Kuja occupies the Nakshatra of Purvabhadapada, in the 3rd quarter

  • Das says of pada-3, "Your outward expression is mischievous but not inwardly. In other words, you think one thing [serious philosophy] but do another [speak lightly even frivolously]. You are bold, courageous and inclined to do researchand finally attain name, fame and reputation."

L-7 Kuja in the gainful 11th-from-jaya-bhava

Lord of the 10th navamsha =

Guru = radix L-3 and L-6 in bhava-11


Das says regarding Guru in the 1st quarter of Purvaphalguni Nakshatra :

"You will show abundant friendship and be highly learned in various fields of science. You have an excellent general knowledge on various subjects and will be wealthy."

However there are some obstacles. Das says that when L-3+L-6 Guru occupies house-11 in Simha rashi:

"... activates your mind so much that your mental balance may be disturbed if your work does not progress according to plan, and if your domestic life doesn't provide adequate opportunities for the expression of your feelings. You sometimes face danger."

  • L-3+L-6 Guru is inauspicious for Thula lagna .

  • L-3 and L-6 are not only dushthamshas, but also they are the natural houses of Budha who is a natural enemy of Guru.

  • In practice, Budha's houses are places where detailed, short-term, immediate, scripted, and repetitive processes occur. Guru will tend to over-philosophize the naturally mundane and short-attention-span behaviors.

Despite being a relatively inauspicious radix house lord, Guru is nevertheless lord of bhava-3 which owns and aspects bhava-3 (Dhanau). This is an excellent arrangement for any type of training-style teaching, such as conferences, brief practical-skills trainings, professional continuing education seminars, and internet publishing.

Although lagnesha Shukra in this nativity does occupy bhava-9, signifying a mentalized and conversational engagement with ritual religion, Guru does not favor priesthood in this nativity. the native is not a religious icon nor a recognized authority in any religious tradition. Guru in this nativity is community oriented, welcomes the sangha, and stimulates discussion amongst a confident, morally aware, elite assembly (Simha/11) of wisdom-seeking individualists.

Professional specialty =

  • providing wisdom teachings (Guru)

  • on matters of goal-setting and achievement (bhava-11)

  • As well as business activities (bhava-3)

  • And service roles (bhava-6).

  • he group discussions (bhava-11)

  • involve subjects connected with moral and political behaviors (Simha),

  • And rational philosophy (Surya).

  • the native 's style is highly individualistic and confident (Guru yuti swakshetra Surya)

  • yet grounded in the wisdom traditions (Guru)

  • while expressing the traditions in a highly practical and mundane conversational practice (bhava-3)

  • through publications media (bhava-3).

Guru occupies Purvaphalguni Nakshatra , which gives a keen interest in occult subjects, and an expansive capacity to develop discussions on matters of individual ethicsas well as social policy and practice. Guru is well-placed here in the Nakshatra of the Aditya Bhaga, who bestows wealth and presides over love marriage.

Data:

Although well educated with special training in ethics and social policy, as well as a broad competence in occult history and divinatory technique, the native struggles with an imbalanced and heavily mentalized workload of teaching, writing, and lecturing.

L-3 gives self-owned business, with lord in 9th-from-3rd, is profitable. L-6 gives debt, servitude, social conflict, disease.

he danger = sickness and animosity caused by over-expansion of analytical thought and Guru's natural disregard for Shani's time-clock. Result = "too many tasks" for the allotted earthly hours.

An additional danger is theintrusion of reactionary, conflict-ridden lower class (bhava-6) personalitiesinto the somewhat elite debate regarding social-ethical practice. These personalities have the opportunity to damage the career. They are tightly connected with the "mothers relatives" in bhava-6.

he intrusion of inappropriate voices in the discussion is much reduced due to the auspicious presence of the Uttarabhadrapada Chandra in bhava-6.

In reality, the mother's relatives created some resistance to the native 's education in religious philosophy. In the longer term, the native had sufficient individual integrity (Surya in strength) to transcend these enemies.

10th-from- Chandra - psycho-emotional true service: Lord = Guru

10th-from-Chandra = 3 Dhanau.

Emotionally, this native is wanting to serve in humanistic educational training and media publications, in the role of a teacher and facilitator (characteristics of Guru.).

Lord Guru always likes to teach, and as L-3 he has a special connection to writings and publication. Guru occupies 11th-from-lagna, yuti Surya, making the writings of bhava-3 accessible to large-scale networked assemblies of bhava-11.

Jyotisha Career Vimshottari Dasha for Barbara Pijan Lama, JyotishiShukra Mahadasha:

    CAREER: Guru = lord of 10th-from-mahadasha pati = bhava-6

    • Mahadasha of L-1+L-8 Shukra = L-3+L-8 from Chandra.

    • Numerous difficulties can be expected during Mahadasha of lagnesha Shukra due to Shukra's unfavorable angle vis-à-vis most of the graha in the radix nativity. In addition, Shukra is afflicted by Ketu in navamsha.

    • Notably, Shukra = L/8 measured from BOTH radix lagna and Chandra lagna. the native can expect considerable effect of "sudden, forced changes" through the auspice of the L-8 during the 20 years of Shukra Mahadasha.

    • In this nativity, there is Only one overtly favorable bhukti during the entire 20-year duration of Shukra Mahadasha- that is, the Shukra-Mangala period. All other periods forecast particular difficulties:

    Shukra-Shukra period = "double L-8" effects (cf. Elizabeth Taylor, Charles de Gaulle)

    Shukra = L-1+L-8 from Thula lagna + L-3+L-8 from Meena Chandra

    Inheritance-1

    As L-8, Shukra the karaka for money and pleasure may be expected to produce some hidden monies in the form of inheritance, insurance settlements, or possibly alimony.

    Ketu in bhava-8 reduces the output and may cause confusion or disorientation in the distribution of such funds.

    • Inheritance-1

    Despite the ill-disposed graha in 9th-from-Chandra (mother's father), the death of 9th-from-Chandra = bhava-8, a house of inheritance.

    • death [7th] of mother's father [9th-from-Chandra] = bhava-8 Vrishabha.

Shukra-Surya period = Surya in3rd-from-Shukra; L-6 from Chandra

Surya = L-11 from Thula lagna + L-6 from Meena Chandra

  • Inheritance- 2

  • A second small inheritance occurred after the death of the maternal grandmother. Distribution of these funds was notably delayed (Ketu, 11th-from-Surya)

  • death [7th] of mother's mother [4th-from-Chandra] = bhava-3 Dhanusha. Effect of Guru = produced in the period of Surya, who can give the results of His companion and tenant Guru.

  • 3rd-from is a mentalized angle which is restless and somewhat ego-driven. L-6-from-Chandra is a notoriously difficult graha for emotional matters, and how much more virulent when the Will is so pronounced and Surya joins the Thula-negative L-3+L-6 Guru!

  • Not favorable for balanced relationships either personal or professional. Good for personal accomplishments.

  • Yet the willful and creative character Surya as L-11 in 11 says that the native may Accomplish important goals. The planning, publication, and administrative functions as well as short-term travel (holidays, business travel) are emphasized. Surya facilitates earnings and social networking . The L-11 brings networks of friends who join together in pursuit of mutual goals. Socially, this is a good period with sibling-type (3) friendships established and personal goals achieved.

  • Shukra and Surya = mutual enemies, inauspicious. Furthermore Surya in this nativity receives drishti of Mangala, Shani, and Rahu (by association). Surya is a graha "under siege".

  • Professionally it is a bit of a dicey period due to the adversarial relationship between Ravi and Shukra. On the one hand, the native wants to indulge in the sweet pleasures of money and luxury. On the other hand, Surya is honest, brilliant, and a seeker of only the purest philosophical truth. As karaka for Ego, Ravi also needs a measure of public recognition.

  • the native may be inconsistent in work practice - moving uncomfortably between high-profile glamorous or prestigious roles and more practical money-earning jobs. Despite the ego's need for recognition, 3rd-from emphasizes the mundane tasks of information management/publication, announcements, reports, secretarial work and less on the more rpestigious people management or executive decision-making roles. The 3rd-from angle supports self-made wealth, therefore contract work and other independent income is favored but longer term agreement such as a new corporate-hire position are not.

Shukra-Chandra period = Chandra in 10th-from-Shukra

Chandra = L-10 from Thula lagna + L-1 from Meena Chandra

  • his period is beneficial for career. Chandra is a problematic graha due to Soma's residence in the troubled Ari Bhava. However, in 10th-from-Shukra, Chandra gives fortune and opportunity through professional leadership roles during Shukra periods.

  • here may be heavy responsibilities in service work, perhaps a lower job title than might be expected (bhava-6 for servitude) and peer or advising relationships are difficult to bring into stable agreement. Sometimes also sickness, due to Chandra in 6. Nevertheless the angle is supportive of professional recognition, job promotion, and nomination to leadership rank.

Shukra-Mangala period = Mangala in 9th-from-Shukra

"double-L-2" effect = L-2+L-7 from Thula lagna + L-2+L-9 from Meena Chandra

  • his period is fortunate Overall due to Mangala's 5/9 angle from Shukra.

  • Mangala in 12th-from-Chandra is a terrible maraka, but Kuja's favorable angle from Shukra will protect from adverse consequences. the native will receive gifts and opportunities; world travel for scientific or networking purposes; and religious education or re-connection with a priestly role.

Shukra-Rahu period = Rahu in 6th-from-Shukra

Rahu = amplification of both Shani and Mangala = L-4+L-5 + L-2+L-7 from Thula lagna + L-11+L-12 + L-2+L-9 from Meena Chandra

  • his period can be forecast to be exceptionally difficult [6th-from-mahadashapati] yet passionately exciting and very complex!

  • Shukra-Rahu is a classic timing for impulsive or foreign marriage, typically to a spouse from an incompatible or conflicting cultural background. the native finds debt, conflict, and demands from foreigners or outcasts at every turn. Yet, Rahu is with the YogakarakaShani in this nativity; things can't be all bad.

  • Despite the Shani-Rahu position in 6th-from-Shukra, there may be some opportunity for stability (via L-4) through educational service or work in the hospitality industry (6). In fact, the native worked as a teacher.

  • Long-term employment agreements are very difficult to sustain due to Rahu's unstable and boundary-challenging nature positioned in the adversarial 6th-from the mahadasha-pati. Yet, however rocky the path becomes, there will be sufficient capacity to craft agreements and also sufficient financial resource, food, etc -- due to the parivartamsha benefit from L-2+L-7 Mangala.

Shukra-Guru period = Guru in 3rd-from-Shukra

Guru = L-3+L-6 from Thula lagna + L-1+L-10 from Chandra

  • Similar to the Surya period above, with a twist: Guru is a papa-graha for Thula lagna . In Guru's karaka function, He always brings blessings. Brihaspati may be expected to produce children in His periods no matter what other difficulties might be present. However as the L-3+L-6 from lagna, Guru is a troublemaker.

  • he L-3 brings excess mentalization, causing a heavy but philosophically superficial workload of tasks which have little value in apprehending a greater wisdom. The L-6 brings constant interference from adversaries, servitude to lowly tasks and trouble from employees or underlings, and often illness consequent to sustained anxiety and stress.

  • he Shukra-Guru period may provide a mix of nature's blessings (such as children and wisdom-teachings) along with the general evils of the 3rd-from angle: excessive administration, planning, training, and publication related tasks. The 3rd-from angle supports self-made wealth, therefore contract work and other independent income is favored but longer term agreement such as a new corporate hired position are not.

  • if married and separation is imminent, may be the period of divorce

Shukra-Shani period = Shani in 6th-from-Shukra;

YogakarakaShani = L-4+L-5 from Thula lagna + L-11+L-12 from Meena Chandra

  • Exceptionally difficult and demanding with a very heavy workload and almost no relief [Shani] . Shukra-Shani are a friendly pair therefore the native will not expect other than sustained hard work as a means to earn the wealth that Shukra wants. Nevertheless the 6th-from angle promises debt, conflict, and demands from adversaries, with particular emphasis on financial disagreements in marital and professional relationship. Yogakaraka Shani will not harm the native but the nature of the work is home-security oriented (4) and may become especially demanding due to needs of children (5).

  • Despite the Shani-Rahu position in 6th-from-Shukra, there may be some opportunity for stability through educational service or work in the hospitality-tourism industry (6).

  • Survival issues push to the fore during any Shani period, and when Shani occupies 6th-from the mahadasha pati His pressure will be felt directly in the survival centers of the oldest parts of the brain. There is a powerful urge to worry (Shani) about money while the desire for wealth (Shukra) remains uncomfortably strong. Yet, however rocky the path becomes, there will be sufficient life balance and also sufficient financial resource, food, etc -- due to the parivartamsha benefit from L-2+L-7 Mangala.

Shukra-Budha period = Budha in 4th-from-Shukra

Budha = L-9+L-12 from Thula lagna + L-4+L-7 from Meena Chandra

  • 4th-from-Shukra is always difficult. Also by this point in the Vimshottari narrative, the native will have experienced negative stress and pressure from a long series of unfavorable angles during the bhukti periods of Surya, Rahu, Guru, and Shani. Indeed even the Shukra/Shukra period is inauspicious due to Shukra's "double-L-8" role.

  • Uchcha Budha forecasts a period of sharp conversational, linguistic, computational, and administrative capabilities. 12 = research and 9 = philosophy

  • Budha is also a karaka for educational achievement via writing and examinations in the Budha-discipline of linguistics. the native completed a graduate after finishing a complex written thesis and defense in the Shukra/Budha period.

  • Affiliation with universities (9) temples (9) and meditation centers (12) foreign lands and cultures (12).

  • he dream life will be vivid. Career-wise however there is little momentum. Troubles at home (4) such as parenting issues, home stability or security, and conflicts about money or property, will be the typical troubles during a period of 4th-from-Shukra. Budha's good status in the nativity assists in the articulation and graciousness of the situation, but the auspice of the period of any graha in 4th-from-Shukra is problematic.

Shukra-Ketu period = Ketu in 12th-from-Shukra, Ketu's lord = Shukra

Ketu = gives mainly the effects of "double L-8" Shukra = L-1+L-8 from Thula lagna + L-3+L-8 from Meena Chandra

  • this period, lasting approximately 2.2 years, forecasts an intensive experience of death-and-rebirth of the personality-identity .

  • Shukra/Ketu period will not kill the physical body; however there is so little forward-moving physical energy (1) available that the native may succumb to the dissolution of vitality (exhaustion) syndromes which often accompany sustained effects of 12th-from. (Various types of infections, inability to heal, mental disengagement.)

  • In addition as the final bhukti of a 20-year mahadasha, the Ketu sub-period of Shukra Mahadashais a time of closure, completion, and forgiveness. It is nearly impossible to start anything of importance during a final bhukti - such as a new marriage, a new job, moving into a new home etc.

  • A natural malefic in 8th-from-lagna which is also 12th-from-mahadashapati cannot yield much benefit, excepting in tantrik or psychic development where it can give extraordinary insight. In the material world, this period will give loss, wandering, uncertainty, and rejection of the "normal".

  • Disconnection and disassociation in relationships (Shukra). Loss of interest in conventional religion and apathy regarding the university and temple system which disseminates the higher knowledge. Protective, vitalizing Kundalini energy flow may dwindle , resulting in temporary and recoverable injury to brain, neck, or spine.

  • End of a cycle. A good deal must be forgiven, including career and professional aspirations which did not materialize during the many difficult sub-periods of Shukra Mahadasha. Excellent period for dream work and ego-detachment focus in meditation.

Mahadasha of Surya

Overall character of the period:

  • L-11 = dominated by L-3+L-6 Guru because Brihaspati has the higher degree.

    • L-6 = usury + indebtedness, conditions of poverty.

    • Budha lord of 11th from Surya = L-12 in 12 "expenses on good account". Budha gives the stronger effect of His mulatrikona rashi . There may be significant expenses which harm the material luxury levels but which do produce a spiritually beneficial outcome. For example, expenses incurred for purchase of library study time (12) or religious retreat time (12) or to fund distant pilgrimage travel (12).

    Overall success = marred by Surya = L-6 from Chandra + Surya is strong by shad-bala.

  • Therefore animosity, debt, and disagreement on an emotional level (Chandra lagna) may increase even while social-material goal achievement (11th from radix lagna) is accomplished

CAREER:

11th from Surya = primary source of earnings during Surya major period = dharma bhava. L-9 = uchcha Budha in 12 = income from temple or university sources

10th-from-Surya = bhava-8 featuring Ketu, a graha of detachment,meditation, disconnection, and withdrawal from material life obstacles to spiritual progress. Surya Mahadasha produces an era of inwardness and Detachment from public career.

  • Shukra and Surya = mutual enemies, inauspicious.

  • Mahadasha of Simha Surya = famed as a time when the native wants [six years of] "peace and quiet"at the top of the mountain (Simha) for the purpose of developing one's awareness of divine intelligence (Ravi)in the universe (11).

  • Despite Surya's swakshetra auspiciousness and Surya's association with performance art, Mahadasha Simha Surya does not normally produce great Outer expressions in the native 's public life.

    • Rather, theinner lifeis extremely vivid and dynamic, with the individual intelligence developed to exceptionally high levels during this period

  • bhava-8 = 10th-from=Ravi = Tantric or transformative practices. Shukra occupies the rashi of Mithuna in bhava-9, which brings association of communication and writingin the topical area of religion and humanistic spiritual philosophy. the native 's career expression is greatly limited by Ketu in 10th-from-Surya during the Surya mahadasha, but such production as there is = ephemeral or spiritualized writings

Surya/Surya = 'swabhukti'

Surya = L-11 from Thula lagna and L-6 from Meena Chandra

  • Social-material 6-month forward burst of positive will power (Ravi), social networking (11) and goal-achievement energy (11).

  • Emotional period of conflict in regard to parenting (Chandra) and home-base relationships (Chandra). Emotionally motivated illness, typically fever (Surya L-6 from Chandra).

Surya/Chandra period,

  • Chandra = L-10 from Thula lagna + L-1 from Meena Chandra

  • Social-material and emotional difficulties due to 6/8 angle Chandra-Surya.

  • Sudden, forced changes (8) in parenting (Chandra) and other emotional-habitual behaviors caused by the new agenda of Surya's social activism (11) and goal=oriented behaviors

Surya/ Mangala period,

  • Mangala has a "double-L-2" effect = L-2+L-7 from Thula lagna + L-2+L-9 from Meena Chandra

Surya/ Rahu period,

  • Rahu = amplification of both Shani and Mangala = L-4+L-5 + L-2+L-7 from Thula lagna + L-11+L-12 + L-2+L-9 from Meena Chandra

Surya/ Guru period,

Guru = L-3+L-6 from Thula lagna + L-1+L-10 from Chandra

  • if married and separation is imminent, may be the period of divorce

Surya/ Shani period,

  • Yogakaraka Shani = L-4+L-5 from Thula lagna + L-11+L-12 from Meena Chandra

Surya/ Budha period,

  • Budha = L-9+L-12 from Thula lagna + L-4+L-7 from Meena Chandra

Surya/ Ketu period,

  • Ketu = gives mainly the effects of "double L-8" Shukra = L-1+L-8 from Thula lagna + L-3+L-8 from Meena Chandra

Surya/Shukra period,

Shukra = L-1+L-8 from Thula lagna + L-3+L-8 from Meena Chandra

  • coming at the end of six years of Surya Mahadasha , brought a period of intense, productive writing on tantric and mystical subjects, including the Vidya of Jyotisha. This writing generated career visibility and some public dignity of leadership in the field.

  • It is not reasonable to expect high levels of career success during Surya Mahadasha .

  • Surya's empowerment is restrictedby a harsh aspect from enemy Shani.

  • In addition the bhukti which might have produced the maximum career recognition, Surya/Shukra, occurred during the Transit of Shani through Surya's rashi of Simha- thus doubling the oppression upon gainfulness and mobility in the marketplace.

Mahadasha of Chandra.

L-10 occupies Aristhana = 9th-from-10thand 10th from 9th.

Karmadhipati= Lord of radix Karmaa Bhava


BPHS 47:26 says: "If a strong Chandra is placed in Ari, Randhra, or Vyaya, there will be troubles and good times, on and off."


Chandra Mahadasha = in general a more favorable period for career, but the overall character of the career is broadly defined and limited by the administrative, training, publishing, and media-management task list of bhava-3

  • Lord Guru is favorable as the ruler of the upa-chaya(improving with time) bhava-3 and bhava-6 residing in upa-chaya house-11.

  • Lord Guru is well-positioned in a fortunate 5-9 angle from bhava-3, Dhanushya.

  • Guru = lord of Meena Chandra, which raises the auspiciousness of career activities during Chandra Mahadasha .

  • Like Surya, Guru receives the drishti of Shani. However for Guru, Shani is not a fierce enemy, and the drishti can be managed with attention to rules and regulations of the nation, state, and organization within which the native is working.


A modest improvementin career status and recognition can be expected, particularly in Chandra/Guru period.

  • the nature of career activities will be Guru-focused.

  • Brihaspati is the karaka for Teaching, especially humanistic, philosophical, or religiousteaching.

  • In Simha, Guru has a special affinity for ethical philosophy.


The down-side:

  • bhava-3 is a house of conventional business and scripted, daily communications. Meetings, conferences, planning, scheduling, and much administration are entailed.

  • As lord of bhava-3 and bhava-6, Guru always brings some annoyances and conflicts.

  • 10th-from-Chandra = bhava-3 = too much administrative work.

  • Guru as lord of Chandra and also Guru as lord of 10th-from-Chandra = too much interaction with poverty, victims, exploitation, class conflict, loss of agreement, medicine/health, and social work.

Chandra/Chandra period = 10 months duration

  • Lord of Dashamsha lagna


BPHS Chap 43: 3-6 says: "If Chandra is ... in Ari... Loss of wealth, loss of position, lethargy, agony, antagonism towards the king and ministers, distress to mother, imprisonment and loss of kinsmen will be the evil effects in Chandra's Antara Dasha."

Result: although there was some adversarial behavior from difficult persons in the workplace (6) and poor health due to hormonal causes (6, chandra) no long-term damage sustained from conflict or illness. As L-10 for the present nativity, Chandra sustains the career despite adversarial conditions internally in the body or externally in the workplace.

Chandra = L-10 from Thula lagna + L-1 from Meena Chandra

  • Generally a stable and emotionally grounded period focused on public leadership responsibilities (10)

  • primary source of earnings = bandhu bhava = 11th from Chandra = classroom teaching

BPHS Chap 43: 7-8 says: "If Mangala is in a trikona, advancement of fortune, recognition by the government, gain of clothes and ornaments, success in all efforts, increase in agricultural production and prosperity at home and profits in business will be the favourable effects of the Antara Dasha of Mangala in the Dasha of Chandra."

(Results: a relatively gainful 8-month period featuring gain of clothes and ornaments (5) however accompanied by the ever-present expenses (Mangala occupies 12th-from-mahadashapati) and skin afflictions (Kumbha).)

  • Mangala has a "double-L-2" effect =

  • dissolution and exhaustion (12th-from) of the emotional (astral) body;

  • trouble with face-eyes-throat-mouth-hair-ears (2) also skin because Mangala occupies Kumbha, the rashi of skin

    Mangala = L-2+L-9 from Meena Chandra


BPHS Chap 43: 15-16 says: "If Rahu = yuti with a Yoga Karaka Graha, Success in all ventures, gain of conveyances, garments etc. from the king , benefits from the South-West direction will be derived."


BPHS Chap 43: 19-21 = "if Rahu is in Dhana, there will be body trouble (physical affliction)."

  • Yogakaraka Shani = L-4+L-5 from Thula lagna + L-11+L-12 from Meena Chandra;

  • Shani occupies9th-from-Chandra

the Chandra-Shani period will produce equivalence of gains vs expenses. Because 12th from Chandra = putra bhava, "expenses on good account" (12th) = most likely related to children.

This will be the year that the native 's child goes to college - anticipated expense is high.

  • method of earnings remains: university teachings and temple teachings
