Guest guest Posted October 13, 2000 Report Share Posted October 13, 2000 Hare Ram Krishna, Vyam Vyasadevay Namah Pranaam Sanjayji, You had asked the following from me in one of your last mails. I am sorry to reply late as I was having very busy days at work and personal life. (Mail#3608) >ALSO YOU HAVE STILL NOT TRIED TO ANSWER THE MOOLATRIKONA/ SWAKSHETRA >DIFFERENCE. NOW I AM ALSO GOING TO ASK YOU TO EXPLAIN EXALTATION AND DEBILITY. I will put my understanding of this subject. Moolatrikona-Swakshetra Difference and Exaltation-Debilitation I have prepared the following table to do a comparison (Omitted the Degrees) Graha Swakshetra Moolatrikona Exaltation Debilitation Sun Leo(5) Leo(5) Aries Libra Moon Cancer(4) Taurus(2) Taurus Scorpio Mars Scorpio(8) Aries(1) Capricorn Cancer Mercury Gemini(3) Virgo(6) Virgo Pisces Jupiter Pisces(12) Sagittarius(9) Cancer Capricorn Venus Taurus(2) Libra(7) Pisces Virgo Saturn Capricorn(10) Aquarius(11) Libra Aries Rahu Aquarius(11) Aquarius(11) Gemini Sagittarius Ketu Scorpio(8) Scorpio(8) Sagittarius Gemini Swakshetra Moolatrikona Inferences/Comments Swakshetra: A Planet in its swakshetra is like being in its ‘Home’ Moolatrikona: When a planet is in moolatrikona it behaves as though it is in ‘Office’ So all planets uses ones of it's house as an 'Office' and the Other as it's 'Home'. Except Sun and Moon who own one house each. So sun makes his home as office and Moon has its Office at his friend Venus's 'Home' Taurus. Since the Swakshetra is the 'Home' of the Planet. The 'Home' would have the natural characteristics of the planet as one would keep his home casual and would reflect the person. Like Jupiter's own house is Pisces signifying ashrams and Pisces 12th house of moksha, which is its natural trait unlike in Sagittarius where it does the duty of preserving dharma. Sun->Leo Royal Palace, Fiery. Moon-> Cancer 4th house home, Mother, Jalam. Mars->Scorpio, Tamasic, 8th Death (one name for Mars is Mrityu?), Struggle. Mercury-> Gemini 3rd Conversation, Writings, Since the Moolatrikona is the Office of the planet the Moolatrikona house would reflect the duties of the planet which it can perform best. Like for e.g. For Sun Leo is the Office and Leo sign represents a royal palace/durbar which is very much like sun's work place. For Moon the Moolatrikona is Taurus which is Fixed sign house of Venus. 2nd house represents Family. Exaltation/Uchha: A planet in a deep friend's house is able come out with the best of its abilities. In the exaltation house it can considered as though it's in a park or a picnic where it's most happy. In a deep friends its able to be in its fullest power as the friend would be very supportive. All planets except mercury get exalted in its friend's house. Debilitation/Neecha: When a planet is in a staunch enemy's house it's not able to bring out its best abilities. It's unhappy and so it cannot do any function, as an enemy would be detrimental to the wishes and activities of the planet.
