This highly educated lady was born in an ordinary middle-class
family. She is married to highly ranked Engineer and is blessed with a daughter. At the time of her birth Sagittarius sign was rising in the lagna with Rahu situated therein fully aspected by retrograde Saturn from the 7th house. The Vargottama lord of the 9th house

situated in the 2nd house from the lagna was in the sign ruled by its bitter enemy; it was in conjunction with Venus, a papa-graha for Sagittarius lagna, and a bitter enemy. The lord of the lagna also occupied the same sign which is its sign of debilitation. This conjunction of the Sun, Venus and Jupiter, which makes one learned, rich and have a weak eye-sight, is aspected by the Full Moon from its own sign falling on the 8th house. The Full Moon situated in the 8th house in its own sign does not cause balarishta; it gives long life.
Mercury in yoga-formation with the lords of the 9th and the 11th and occupying a sign ruled by Saturn does not give bad results.
The Sun occupying an inimical sign does not give much
happiness from father and in this case most of its good indications as the lord of the 9th house are spoiled by Venus and Jupiter.
Therefore, her father suffered increasing financial and health crisis as he aged. Jupiter occupying an inimical sign makes one worried about the future, and situated in its debilitation sign makes evil persons speak ill about the native. Mercury occupying an inimical sign generally affects happiness. In this case, Mercury occupying the 3rd house from the lagna is in mutual exchange of signs with the lord of the 3rd which is not a good exchange, it makes elder brothers unfortunate and suffer much because the lord of the 3rd devoid of benefic association is afflicted by Ketu occupying its inimical sign.
Her two elder brothers, not well educated, are poorly employed.
Mars situated in its own sign in the 5th house devoid of benefic aspect and in its own 8th navamsa, along with Saturn occupying the same navamsa, makes one long for a son. Mars occupying the 5th
house makes one always worry about happiness.
Jataka Parijata states that the person born on a Purnima tithi
is good natured, wealthy and highly regarded by family members.
Birth on Purnima tithi is a fortunate birth. This fact is confirmed by the powerful Chandradhi yoga which is evident in this nativity, by the Vargottama lord of the 9th house associated with all three yoga-causing uncombust natural benefics and aspecting the Full Moon, and the 9th house is additionally strengthened by the full aspect of retrograde Saturn strong in digbala which also fully aspects the lagna and the 4th house. Ramanuja tells us that if the lords of the 8th and the 9th are in conjunction or aspect each other then fame and power will be conferred during the dasa of the lord of the 8th house.

of Venus, turned yoga-karaka, occupying a favourable Kshema nakshatra during which period her elder brothers continued to suffer degradation but good fortune sided with this native. She is presently under the influence of the favourable lord of the 9th occupying a Sadhaka nakshatra ruled by Mars, the benefic yoga-karaka for Sagittarius lagna by virtue of ruling the 5th house; its 12th house-lordship does not make it a functional malefic. This lady is destined to experience the good effects of the dasas of the Moon, Mars and Rahu which are to follow. Rahu becomes a yoga-karaka by occupying Sagittarius lagna because the lord of the lagna has gained the benefit of neechabhanga, and associated with the powerful lord of the 9th house is in a very favourable fortunate yoga-formation with the Full Moon occupying its own sign in a nalshatra ruled by the lord of the 10th house also actively participating in the same yoga-formation by aspecting the 9th house occupying the Vesi-lagna.
The lord of the 7th house occupying the 9th house from the 7th
in mutual exchange of signs joins the lord of the 11th in a navamsa ruled by the lord of the 9th house, and the lords of the 11th and the 2nd from the 7th house occupy their own signs. The 7th house does not receive the aspect of Mars or the Sun which aspects are detrimental to the affairs of this house but both ruling a trikonabhava each by occupying gainful bhavas have provided the needful opening for good events to occur for this native; Mars occupying Aries sign in the 5th house cannot occupy a navamsa ruled by Saturn and the Sun occupying Capricorn sign cannot occupy its neecha-navamsa. Therefore, the 7th house signifying the husband of this native is strong and fruitful; it has given her a highly educated and highly placed husband. Saturn which is in the 7th house signifies employment in the service of others. Saturn in the 7th gave her a late marriage, an older and stubborn husband. But, the 7th house falls in Libra navamsa which is unoccupied, and this has given her a handsome and loving husband.
A woman born in Sagittarius lagna and Aries trimsamsa earns
renown for her good qualities and abilities, and has a large family to attend to; and if the Moon in Cancer sign is in occupation of Capricion navamsa she can be instrumental in the death of her husband which adversity here is checked by the Sun occupying the same trimsamsa as the Moon. A woman born in Cancer or

Sagittarius lagna does not possess wealth but enjoys a long married life in the company of her prosperous husband and son.
If the kendrasthanas and the trikonabhavas counted from the
lagna are not occupied by natural benefics but by the Sun, Mars, Saturn, Rahu or Ketu then in addition to their bhava-lordship it is essential to examine the vargas gained by them because planets
situated in the kendras or the trikonas or the 2nd or the 11th bhava tend to give their full good results depending on the favourable associations established by them with other karakas. It is for this very reason that the texts have distinctly described the results for the occupation of own sign, own moolatrikona-rasi, exaltation sign, friendly sign, a kendra, a trikona, the 2nd or the 11th or vargottama-navamsa by the nine planets. The simultaneous occupation of own sign, own drekkena and own navamsa confers the Uttam sangya to
a planet. Sarvartha Chintamani tells us that the good effects of the favourable vargas gained are generally destroyed by the concerned planets occupying evil bhavas. In the present case, Mars is situated in the 5th house and Saturn is situated in the 7th house from the lagna. Mars in its own sign does not occupy its own drekkena but occupies its own navamsa whereas Saturn strong in directional strength does not occupy its own sign or own drekkena or own navamsa. Mars is a yoga-karaka for Sagittarius lagna, and Saturn rules the Dhana-bhava. Cruel planets even if occupying their own vargas do not give yoga or wealth in case they are not aspected by the friendly lord of the lagna.
