Guest guest Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Dear Pandit Dakshinamoorthyji, Would you kindly enlighten me regarding the following. 1. If Mars and Saturn are enemies, why is Mars exalted in Saturn's sign? Why would Saturn give such a high status to his rival? And his friend Moon doesn't seem to welcome him with open hands, since he is debilitated in Moon's house, Cancer. 2. Venus is debilitated in her friend, Mercury's sign and exalted in her enemey's sign. What is the logic behind this? Thank you Sir, Blessings Renunw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
