When this native was born Aries sign aspected by Venus from
its own sign was rising in the lagna and the Moon was in the 4th pada of Moola nakshatra ruled by Ketu, and in the Gemini navamsa sub-division of its friendly Sagittarius sign. Ketu situated in the 12th house from the lagna was in Pisces sign ruled by Jupiter and in Revati nakshatra ruled by its intimate friend, Mercury. The lord of

the Chandra-lagna was in the 10th house from the Moon which was aspected by Mars, the yoga-karaka for Sagittarius Chandra-lagna.
This native was born as the youngest amongst three brothers and three sisters, in a reputed wealthy family which is proud of its long lineage and history. He was a favourite of his parents; his brothers and sisters who doted on him spoiled him thoroughly; mark the
association of the lord of the 11th, signifying elder brothers, with the lords of the lagna and the 9th. His father was a Civil Engineer who commanded a good income and led a comfortable luxurious
life.
The Moon situated in the 9th house from the lagna generally
makes one very active, intelligent, fond of learning, good-tempered, respectful, courageous, endowed with wealth, prosperous, blessed with sons, friends and many relatives, and the Moon in Sagittarius sign, makes one grateful, good in speech and an able person. Jupiter occupying a neutral sign in the 6th house from the lagna and in the 10th house from the Moon is not considered badly placed; it makes one foe-less and avail the fruits of the favourable yogas obtaining such as the Lagnadhi yoga, the Gajakesari yoga and the Malvaya
yoga that are evident in this nativity. The three natural benefics occupying the three continuous bhavas, the 6th, the 7th and the 8th house from the lagna, gave rise to the Lagnadhi yoga but this yoga was afflicted by the presence of Saturn; Jupiter situated in the 10th house from the Moon had caused the Kesari yoga and this yoga
too was afflicted by Saturn, and Venus occupying its own sign in the 7th house from the lagna, gave rise to the Malvaya yoga which yoga was marred by natural malefics and cruel planets occupying both signs adjoining Libra sign. Jataka Parijata states that if the lord of the lagna is situated in an Upachyasthana and benefics are in the kendras in benefic navamsas and papa-grahas are devoid of strength then alone one becomes a renowned ruler, some say the
same result will ensue if the lord of the Chandra-lagna is similarly situated but here this was not to be. The aspect of Venus to the lagna-kendra if not occupying its exaltation sign is not treated as benefic an aspect as is that of Jupiter to the lagna. A strong Venus situated in the 7th house makes one handsome, fortunate and gives a rich wife. This native was not handsome, he had had to work hard to gain all that he had achieved, and his wife hailed from a very ordinary poor family.

This native availed the full benefits of the Vimshottari dasa of Venus. Venus had gained five benefic bindus in its Ashtakavarga and ran its course during the first third-part of his life. Venus, hemmed between two natural benefics, was at the time of his birth also hemmed between cruel fiery malefic planets which made him
care-free and care-less to the extent that he neglected his studies and did not complete his college-education. Venus was in a Vadha nakshatra and in the 12th house from the lord of the 5th occupying the 8th house in conjunction with a functional papa-graha both occupying a friendly sign but an unfavourable bhava. Saravali tells us that the conjunction of Mars, Jupiter and Saturn in the 10th house from the Moon makes one devoid of good reasoning, education,
wealth, and happiness, avoided and discarded by well-wishers. The same text also states that the Moon occupying a navamsa ruled
by Mercury and aspected by Mars makes one a thief, clever in argumentation and a dangerous being. But the aspect of Venus on the lagna made this native interested in Music which interest he inherited from his father. He gained proficiency in playing violin and various other stringed instruments. He joined a central broadcasting organisation as an artist through the efforts of his eldest brother.
Venus occupying the 7th house from the lagna makes one fortunate after marriage.
The dasa of the Moon gave this native a marriage, birth of sons and a house of his own; he obtained the house from his father through deceit, and by depriving his two elder brothers of their rightful shares. This native compelled his father to sell the palatial house in which the entire family lived. His two surviving elder sisters who had wrongfully assisted this native in gaining the house also benefited because they too were gifted house-properties purchased for them by their father. There was discord with his brothers who never reconciled their differences with the native and drifted apart. Mars, afflicted by Saturn and occupying a neutral sign but an evil house and a debilitated navamsa, aspecting the Moon from the 6th house made this native deceitful and cunning, he virtually robbed his father and his two brothers. The Moon, ruling the set of three Kshema nakshatras and situated in the nakshatra of Ketu that was placed in opposition to the karaka of brothers, had gained only three benefic bindus in its Ashtakavarga, it was situated in Sagittarius drekkena but Jupiter which was not strongly

placed did not aspect the lagna. Had the lagna received the aspect of Jupiter this native would not have committed the wrongs that he did. Nevertheless, owing to Venus he gained repute as a music-guru; during his heydays this native trained many renowned singers but failed in his attempt to find for himself a foothold in the Film industry as a music composer.
During the dasa of Jupiter which was in a Vadha nakshatra the
four sons of this native revolted and forced part sale of the house property that he had gained from his father. Thereafter, this native enjoyed neither domestic peace nor good health, and good fortune altogether deserted him. He had already retired from service in the dasa of Rahu. Jupiter was in the Shastiamsa ruled by Saturn, it being a friend of the Sun; therefore, this native lived long. Jataka Tattva states that if there is Lagnadhi yoga and malefic planets are in the 3rd, the 6th or the 11th house a person lives long. This native died in the antra-dasa of Saturn in the dasa of Saturn. The lord of the sign of occupied by Saturn was in the 8th house from the lagna in mutual exchange of signs with the lord of the 8th who is also the lord of the lagna. Mars situated in the 6th gives a painful death. Saturn was in the navamsa ruled by its bitter enemy, Mars, and therefore, its dasa was the Anishta dasa during which period one’s health generally suffers and deteriorates. Jataka Tattva clarifies that if the lord of the lagna also rules the 8th house death does not occur during the course of its dasa, death occurs during the dasa of Saturn or during the dasa of the lord of the 22nd drekkena or of the 64th navamsa.
The lord of the 6th situated in the 8th house from the lagna gives rise to the favourable Harsha yoga which makes one fortunate, enjoy good health, remain happy and subdue his foes. The lord of the 8th occupying the 6th house gives rise to the favourable Sarala yoga, the person blessed with learning and comforts of life, fearless and full of determination lives long. Here, there is the mutual exchange of signs between the lords of the 6th house and the 8th house. A cruel malefic occupying the 8th house when the lord of the 8th is in the 6th causes yogabhanga and creates many problems. The lords of the 6th and the 8th in mutual exchange of signs give rise to an unfavourable Dainya yoga which makes one abusive, bad in conduct, a back-biter and of unsteady mind and resolve; such a person does not gain his objective through honest means. Planets ruling favourable houses associating with either the lord of the 6th in the 8th or with the lord

of the 8th in the 6th do not generally produce their good results during the course of their own dasas or in their antra-dasas in the dasas of other benefic yoga-causing planets. In the present case, the favourable lords of the 9th, the 10th and the 11th conjoin with the lord of the 8th in the 6th house and the favourable lord of the 5th house conjoins with the lord of the 6th occupying the 8th house; the auspicious indications of these stated bhavas were not fully experienced by this native in as much as good fortune deserted him during the course of the dasa of the 9th, he did not rise high in his career, most of his well-intended efforts failed to yield the expected good results, and he derived no happiness from his four sons. Lagnadhi yoga is equal to a Rajayoga. Rajayoga results did not accrue to this native because good luck did not side with him when required.
The lord of the 2nd is situated in the 6th from the 2nd house. Even though occupying its other own sign it has the lords of the lagna, the 9th, the 10th and the 12th occupying the 12th house from the sign it occupies, and the 2nd house is aspected by the evil lord of the 6th and the spoiled lords of the two trikonas. No planet aspects the lord of the 2nd which occupies a navamsa ruled by a papa-graha for Aries lagna. This native was not a wealthy person. The lord of the 4th occupying the 6th house from the 4th having its dispositor relegated to a trika-bhava made this native lead a very ordinary kind of life.
This native had to supplement his meagre salary with tuition-fees he charged for teaching music. Many of his pupils earned more name and fame than this native, their teacher. The 10th house from the lagna is vacant but the lord of the 10th house from the navamsa lagna is occupied by Rahu. The lord of the 10th house from the navamsa lagna, the Sun, occupies the navamsa lagna and the lord of the navamsa lagna joins an exalted Jupiter, and also Mercury in the 9th there from. This assembly of planets, which neutralised the adverse situation of the 5th lord seen in the rasi-chart, made this native a very competent teacher who could ably make most of his dedicated pupils to effectively understand, grasp and master the basic fundamentals of music and their advanced applications, and also improvise. The Moon gaining in pakshabala joins Venus, the Atmakaraka, in Gemini navamsa; this gave the native the ability to gain proficiency in music and the ability to teach music.
