Dear Pathi ji,It is great to see you on Board.Thank you for your auspicious company.kind regards,Bhaskar., venkatachala pathi <pathiav >wrote:>> STRENGTH OF PLANETS> Â> Qn: Sir, I read often in many contexts, that one has to find‘strongest’ of the Planets in a chart for variousinterpretations. Is there any method to find this, or should I goto ‘Astakavarga’ charts for each planet and grade thestrength of the Planet?> Â> Ans: Very pertinent and important question. When you see adoctor, (even for a tooth ache!), the first act of his is to check the‘pulse, color of tong, color of eye lids, perhaps blood pressure,heart beat

etc’. Similarly, in a given short time for anAstrologer, he should have the ability to immediately find in a givenchart the strength of the Planets in that chart, instead of going intoother methods of ascertaining these, as into calculations for‘shadbalas’ â€" six fold strength.’> Â> Every Planet has ‘up or down qualities’ and every pointof ‘strength’ has been set off against a point of‘weakness’. These two ‘terms’ fluctuateaccording to varied ‘qualities’ acquired by Planet. Themore the ‘plus’ points left in count with a Planet, thatPlanet will be termed ‘Stronger’ among other Planets inthe chart.> Â> Let me give a ‘check list’ for easy reach to find the‘strongest’ planet in a chart:> Â> (a).  The Planet or Planets

positioned‘exalted’ in a birth chart;> (b).  The Planet placed in its own sign in the birth chart orNavamsa;> ©.  It is placed in its friend’s place in the birthchart or Navamsa;> (d).  It is placed in a triangular house to Lagna> (e).  It is placed to an angular house to Lagna;> (f).   It is placed in the Moolathrikona sign in thebirth chart;> (g).  It is a beneficial Planet for that particular Lagna inthe birth chart;> (h).  It is associated with or aspected by a Planet that is abeneficial Planet for that Lagna;> (i).   The Planet is Vargottama;> (j).   The Planet is in retrograde;> (k)   The Planet has a ‘directional’strength in the ‘Birth Chart’:> Â> The Sun and the Moon in the 10th House from Lagna;> The Moon and the Venus in the fourth

house from Lagna;> Jupiter and Mercury in the First House (Lagna)>            Saturnpositioned in the seventh house from Lagna.> (l)         A waxing Moon is morepowerful than a waning Moon:> Â>              TheMoon gets stronger as it moves away from the Sun. It is veryimportant that the Moon is ‘powerful’ in a birth chart, asthis will indicate how intelligent or relatively sharp in thinking ofthe Natal. Those born on ‘new Moon’ will have Sun andMoon in the same house, while those born in ‘full Moon’will find that Sun and the Moon are diagonally opposite houses in achart. So, the Moon is considered to be weak when born on Amavasya, andrelatively strong for those born on Pournami.> Â> (m).    The Sun is more powerful when positioned inthe signs

from Capricorn (Makara) to Gemini (Mithuna) â€" said tobe in move in ‘Uttarayana’.> (n).     A Planet hemmed between‘beneficial’ Plants for the chart;> (o).     A Planet which is in aspect ofbeneficial Planets for the chart, on the adjoining house on either sideof the house in which the Planet is positioned;> (p).    The Planet is positioned between 12ºand18º in a sign.> Â> Let us now see when a Planet is said to be weak in a chart:> Â> (a)   A Planet is debilitated in a birth chart or inNavamsa;> (b)   A Planet is in its natural enemy’s sign inthe birth chart or Navamsa;> ©Ã‚    The Planet is in 6th, 8th, or 12th House fromLagna;> (d)   It is associated with or aspected by a Planet thatis a malefic Planet for that Lagna;> (e)    The

Planet is a malefic Planet to that Lagna;> (f)     The Planet is combust;> (g)   When the Planet is hemmed with malefic Planets in ahouse> (h)   When the Planet has aspect of a malefic Planet;> (i)     The Planet is in the last degree of amovable or a fixed sign. When this is applied in a common sign thePlanet must be Vargothama and thereby becomes ‘strong’;> (j)     The Planet is not having directionalstrength.> Â> An Astrologer must note for, it is bad to have Venus in 12th House,Mercury in the 8th house, or Jupiter in the 6th House from Janma Lagna.However, it is also found that Venus in 12th House should not be in thesign or Navamsa of Saturn.> Â> Â> Pathi.> Â> A.V.Pathi, Â> Astrologer, (consultation fees payable for direct detailedstudies)> 'Oxton House',
