This nativity belongs to a wealthy businessman hailing from a
family of businessmen but he is not engaged in any of his family businesses. At the time of his birth, the rising lagna-point was in the Taurus navamsa sub-division of Libra sign ruled by Venus, and in
Ravinder Kumar Soni
Vishakha, a Vadha nakshatra, ruled by Jupiter. The Moon occupying the 7th house from the lagna and aspecting the lagna was in its exaltation navamsa of Aries sign ruled by Mars and was transiting Ashwini nakshatra ruled by Ketu. The lagna was aspected by Mars occupying the 10th house from the lagna. This native of medium
height is very fair and very good-looking, and looks younger than his actual age.
The Sun, which is the lord of the 11th house, is a functional malefic for Libra lagna; it is situated in the 9th house from the lagna hemmed between Mars, occupying its sign of debilitation in the 10th house, and Saturn, which is in conjunction with Venus in the 8th house. This situation of the Sun harmed the father of this native.
The Sun is the karaka of father. Soon after the birth of this native his father’s business started dwindling and he become dependent on the support of others which latter happening was owing to the aspect of retrograde Jupiter, the prime benefic but a functional malefic, on the 9th house from its own sign. The karaka of the 9th house occupying the 9th house, and cruel and fiery planets also occupying the 9th and the 10th house make one’s father unfortunate.
Jupiter situated in Sagittarius sign and aspecting the 9th house makes one fortunate, intelligent, wealthy and hold a good position in life.
Planets occupying their respective signs of debilitation
generally do not give good results; during the dasa of a planet in debilitation there will be fall in position or power, the person resorts to unethical, low and evil deeds, experiences poverty, becomes burdened with debts, consorts with undesirable people,
undertakes needless and fruitless difficult and painful journeys and is compelled by circumstances to seek the service of others or support from others. In the present case, Mars, the lord of the 2nd and the 7th house, is in its debilitation sign in the 10th house from the lagna; Mars has gained the benefit of neechabhanga and is in mutual exchange with the lord of the sign of its occupation both occupying mutual kendras in the kendras from the lagna. This is a Maha yoga. The conjunction of Mars with either Mercury or with
Ketu is generally deplored, which conjunction occurring in the 10th house while giving impetus to the professional or business activity of a person time and again creates hurdles and causes uncertainty and needless worries; it makes a person secretly cunning and dishonest. Here, whereas Mercury has gained six benefic bindus

in its Ashtakavarga occupying a neutral sign in the 10th house, Mars gaining only two benefic bindus occupies a sign ruled by its intimate friend. Mars does not cause Neechabhanga Rajayoga to arise when it is situated in a kendra identical with Cancer sign even if equipped with four or more benefic bindus. Mercury equipped with six benefic bindus generally confers success in all undertakings, and the bhavas occupied and aspected by it prosper.
Mars situated in the 10th house in a kendra from the lord of the 10th house has made this native succeed in his business enterprise and earn huge sums of money but it has also afflicted the good
indications of the 7th house which it rules. The bhava whose lord is in its sign of debilitation, the bhava whose lord conjoins with a planet in debilitation, the bhava occupied by a planet in debilitation and the bhava which is aspected by the planet in debilitation all suffer degradation and do not produce good results, the neechabhanga
status gained by the planet in debilitation notwithstanding. Here, Mars situated in its sign of debilitation occupies its own shashtiamsa which is cruel and evil. Ketu, the lord of the nakshatra occupied by the Moon, situated in the same sign as debilitated Mars, is in a neutral sign but in a Vadha nakshatra. Jupiter ruling the set of three evil Vadha nakshatras has become more malefic and therefore, its aspect on the 7th house and the Moon situated therein is not a benefic aspect. The Moon is a yoga-karaka for Libra lagna but it is losing pakshabala, and in this case two afflicted or weak luminaries are found to enclose the 8th house tenanted by the lord of the lagna conjoined with the yoga-karaka which is a functional benefic for this lagna. This situation adversely affects the auspicious indications of the lagna, of the 4th house and of the 5th house from the lagna. Mars occupies the 6th house from the Navamsa-lagna.
Venus is the karaka of wife. Jataka Tattva states that if Venus conjoins with the Sun in the 5th, the 7th or the 9th from the lagna, or if Venus is with Mars or Saturn in the 7th house from the Moon, or if Venus and Mercury combine in the 7th house from the lagna, or if there is a malefic in the 7th house from Venus, or if a malefic planet conjoins with Venus, one does not get a wife. This native should have got married before he had turned thirty years of age but then the dasa of the Sun was not kind to him, it did not allow finalisation of any marriage proposal because he had not yet established his business and his parents sought a wealthy relation. During the
Ravinder Kumar Soni
entire dasa of Moon the few marriage proposals that came his way were either rejected by either party or were not found suitable. His father expired during the dasa of Moon, and till date all attempts of his mother and elder sisters to get him married have failed.
He is presently under the influence of the dasa of the lord of the 7th house, which is in its sign of debilitation. Mahadeva reminds us that “jaaesh dasaa shokdaa” i.e. the dasa of the lord of the 7th gives grief and many troublesome and painful moments to contend with, separation from near and dear ones, vain travels and various physical hardships and ailments, all this because the 7th house is a marakasthana.
Generally the Moon situated in the 7th house gives marriage
but the person, narrow-minded but sociable and successful, does not give up seeking other women. The waning Moon in the 7th house creates problems in his relationship with those who oppose him. The lord of the 7th house situated in the 10th house weak and afflicted does not give an agreeable and sincere wife. The lord of the 7th in its sign of debilitation gives a wicked wife. If Saturn and Venus are in the 8th house not aspected by any benefic planet the entire exercise of marriage goes waste. The marriage of this native is a very remote possibility.
