You are forgetting two things:

 

(1) While I agree that the teachings of rishis (sages) should be

understood correctly instead of being rejected, I want to remind you

that there are a lot of misconceptions and corruptions introduced in

astrological knowledge in the last millennium. Not everything you

hear here and there is necessarily "rishi proktam" (taught by Sages).

 

(2) An example is your own rule that Jupiter in 5th destroys some

significations of 5th. When Jay Weiss shows a real-life counter-

example, you suggest that he is rejecting the teachings of sages. Now

tell me which sage taught this rule (Jupiter destroying 5th) and

where. Don't tell me about Maharashtra Brahmins. Show me the teaching

of a "rishi".

 

In fact, Sage Bhrigu taught in "Bhrigu Sutram" that Jupiter in 5th

gives a native great intelligence, special qualities, good speech,

righteousness, success, fame, many prosperous children and so on. No

negative result in given.

 

While you frown upon other "so called astrologers" for rejecting

rishis, you yourself are giving a rule that contradicts rishi prokta.

 

May Jupiter's light shine on us,

Narasimha

 

PS: Individual divisional charts play an important role in deciding

the results. So someone with a functionally benefic Jupiter in 5th in

rasi in strength may indeed have problems with progeny if Saptamsa (D-

7) is badly afflicted. However, Jupiter in 5th is NOT the reason for

that in such a case.
