Guest guest Posted March 27, 2002 Report Share Posted March 27, 2002 Dear Sarajit Well, you are salivating at the daunting prospect of writing an article on a planet in a) marankaraksthan AND b) retro AND c) debilitated/ exalted AND d) in kendra/kon vs Dusthan. You've got guts! And I also understand, that Zoran has ALREADY written on this COMPLICATED affair. Could I request, that in your article, you FIRST address how you take on EACH effect as it cumulates. My background for basic confusion: a) Visti says a benefic debilitated retrograde in dusthan is a blessing from a past life vs Gurudev says, Jupiter debilitated retrograde in dusthan is a horror. b) while most effects are cumulative in astrology, some REVERSE (double negative), & it is difficult to figure out which. c) let us ignore the special cases & exceptions eg neechbhanga & viprit yogs, for THIS element-definition/ interpretation purpose. Let us also ignore that ALL the constituent effects manifest in different ways. Lets first see the elemental definitions Could I review here what is generally acceptable, step by step. Could someone knowledgeable correct this first, before you add on maranakarakasthan to this. Could someone do this necessary correction patiently, for all our benefit? A) SINGLE EFFECTS, WITHOUT ANY COMPLICATIONS: (only SMS used is NB/NM/FB/FM= natural & functional, benefics & malefics, where functional= by lordship. wrt= with respect to. Good vs bad places are kendra/kon vs dusthan): 1. Effect on own NATURAL signification: BOTH NBs & NMs are good in good places & bad in bad places. Eg Saturn in 10 = persistence at work. 2. Effect on its functional signification: BOTH FBs & FMs are strong vs weak, in good vs bad places, in their respective FUNCTIONAL disposition. Eg irrespective of whether NB or NM, 5th lord in 6= weak in its good 5th lordship. Eg 6th lord in 10= strong in its malefic lordship. I know one is straining to think about the effect of dignity here (own/ exalted/ debilitated), avastha (eg retrograde), that original natural disposition also manifests. But could we have some patience & go slowly, & check yes or no, basically. 3. Effect on signification of house aspected/ occupied: NB vs NM, irrespective of lordship, would be benefic vs malefic in ANY house. Remember, the heading in this para, is the signification of the house, not the planet. B) DIGNITY (ie Sign placement): 1. Occupy/ aspect Own house: strong & beneficial for significations of THIS house, irrespective of natural or functional disposition. We are NOT talking here about the significations of the planet (natural or functional, or about the effect on other houses aspected by this planet in own house, all of which would still be as per previous heading: Pl CONFIRM this). 2. Vargottam: Only a much stronger form of the above, ie not necessarily benefic for ALL significations. 3. Exalted/ Debilitated: both natural & functional significations of planet, good or bad, is strengthened if exalted, weakened if debilitated. Eg an exalted Saturn or 6th lord would be very bad in ANY house placed, wrt its natural or 6th lordship signification, whereas the signification of the house placed, would be as per earlier rules, only strengthened/ weakened (xlt vs deb). C) Relative influence of Dignity rules (covered as set B) versus Basic rules (covered as set A): 1. For significations of the planet (natural & lordship), its House-placement (set A) is MORE important than sign placement (set B) effects. 2. For significations of the occupied house, set B (dignity) > A (house-rules). So, well-placed debilitated FB= weak benefic (NOT malefic) for signification of house placed, tho strong benefic for house owned (lets ignore kendrapatidosh & other complications; lets get the basics right first!), tho, to lesser degree than if it were not debilitated. FB exalted in dusthan is totally useless (too weak) for house owned, tho still benefic; AND it is a weak benefic for signification of house placed (exaltation does not help it much, as house-placement is more important an effect). So exalted Saturn as 4th lord in 6: a) very malefic wrt Saturn's significations, tho weakened, b) very benign wrt significations of 4, tho weakened, c) very malefic wrt health (6). So far, EXCEPT FOR NEECHBHANGA, which is unexplained from the above, there is NO EXCEPTION BASICALLY, (Even VRY is explained in rule A 2). And more important, in terms of what this exercise is also about, there is NO REVERSAL due to double negatives, only a cumulative effect, & a differentiation in terms of the 3 different significations. D) If we agree so far, now, lets now review some of the a) cumulative vs b) opposing influences: ie the 8 cases of a) NB/NM placed b) in kendra/kon vs dusthan, as c) exalted vs debilitated, as given in the List so far: 1. Cumulative (ie more of the same, ie " markatasya surapanam, tasya vrishchik danshanam, tanmadhye bhoota sancharo, yadya tadya vawhishyati " : a) NB in kendra/kon= great, whether exalted/debilitated (tho beneficience weakened marginally if debilitated). b) NM in dusthan= very bad, whether debilitated/ exalted (tho sting REDUCED if debilitated: is this correct?). c) NM exalted in kendra/kon: very bad 2. Reversal: WHY? a) NB: exalted in dusthan: very bad: house-placement effect seems to over-ride & REVERSE its disposition b) NB: debilitated in dusthan: very good: ??? c) NM: debilitated in kendra/kon: very good: ??? Why? These 3 cases dont seem to conclude from ANY of the logic we have arrived at so far. Then, what is wrong in any of the logic so far? We are now still to see avastha (except Dignity already covered): esp the important ones such as a) retrogradeness, b) combustion, c) sandhi, d) MaranaKarakaSthan. I would have ASSUMED that these only modify the above rules. BUT some seem to REVERSE them, ie the Retro ones. But let me first get a comment on whether so far is OK, before venturing on the cumulative effect of these factors.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2002 Report Share Posted March 27, 2002 Vyam Vysadevaya Namah -------------- Dear Nandan, You wrote: a) Visti says a benefic debilitated retrograde in dusthan is a blessing from a past life vs Gurudev says, Jupiter debilitated retrograde industhan is a horror. Visti: If you had read carefully, Gurudev stated that Jupiter Retrogade in a Dusthana, whilst afflicted by Malefics was a horror.. No mention of debilitation. Gurudev has also stated in the past, that a Retrogade & debilitated benefic in Dusthana, can shows a blessing from Past life. Its similar to a Vipareet Raja Yoga of sorts. Source: Read his Interview; http://sjvc.org/People/rath_interview.htm Best wishes, Visti. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The basic point is that SOCIOLOGICAL and PHYSIOLOGICAL aspects of bhavas tend to get damaged first both in cases of natural malefics and functional malefics(lords of bad houses). For example. Lord of 8th house placed in 4th would firstly damage mother and chest(heart) area, apart from other significations of 4th house. IF in the process, chandra or matrukaraka is afflicted that can be said for sure. > > 3.

Look at this in this way. Evil man would never destroy his home.. Yet there is a difference. When malefic graha aspects/ occupies its own house, it would damage SOCIOLOGICAL and PHYSIOLOGICAL aspect of the house. For instance, Shani in 5th house in own sign would give Grief to children and possibility of hard work, obstacles and some chronic disorders given by shani, even though shani is in own sign. Yet its high dignity would give strength to children to resist thouse evils. Abdominal and mental problems would also be seen, more so if there are some additional influences on shani (by papas) > > 2. Vargottam: Only a much stronger form of the above, ie not > necessarily benefic for ALL significations. > Vasrghotam position would just STRENGTHEN the graha position (for good or bad) in Rashi Chart.

I feel that exaltation (the best mood of graha) would promote better karkatwa of graha, better karakatwa of its lorship. I think that exaltation gives both strength and auspiciousness even in case of natural malefics. Exalted Mangal would act like a steel, while low dignity mangal may act as a raw iron.. > > C) Relative influence of Dignity rules (covered as set B) versus Basic > rules (covered as set A): > > 1.

Yet if graha is exalted in dusthan it would have more strength to fight with the dusthan.. Debilitated graha in kendra even when regained strength, it still has some dosha(impurity) which will affect sociological and physiological aspects of graha, house placement and its rulership These rules are basic. They are subject to further " advanced " rules Best wishes, Zoran -- Zoran Radosavljevic Jyotish Teacher at Shri Jagannath Vedic Centre mails: ahimsa ahimsa web address: http://www.sjvc.co.yu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
