Never saw a Jyotish source that identified Jupiter with Vishnu.

I understand that these are the correspondences between the astrological planets
and the Devas:

Sun -- Ganesha, Rama

Moon -- Shiva, Ganga

Mars -- Skanda, Hanuman

Mercury -- Vishnu

Jupiter -- Saraswati, Brahma

Venus -- Lakshmi, Durga

Saturn -- Krishna, Kali

Rahu -- Durga Mahishamardini

Ketu -- Rudra, Bhairava

But I know there is often disagreement. What set of correspondences were you
taught?

Kochu-ji,

Thanks very much for this info. I am aware that 5th and 9th are the
ones GENERALLY used to find istadevata. But in some cases, some
people say that the deity of the strongest planet is the ista even
when it is not in the 5th or the 9th. Also when the 5 and 9th lords
are debilitated and if there drishti of an exalted planet(eg Jupiter)
into the 5/9th, in this case the deity representing Jupiter i.e.
Vishnu is the Ista - is this correct?

There is also some differences as to what planet represents what
deity. Eg - generally in the South, Subramanya is the deity of Mars;
this makes sense, Subramanya is the general of the gods and his
warlike nature is similar to that of Mars; however in the Hora sastra
we find that Visnu is the ruler of Mars(not 100% sure of this though).

What are the indications of a Devi/Srividya upasak??
