Venus the natural benefic and temporal malefic

[Guest guest]

Lalia:

 

Venus is a natural benefic, and a teacher to the demons. Venus also holds the

secret of immortality. She brings love, beauty, art, and spouse into our

lives. She is sukha karaka, indicator of the sweetness of life.

It is true that for a Pisces lagna Venus rules two dusthanas (bad houses) 3

and 8. For this lagna, Venus still retains status as natural benefic, and

takes on the characteristic of a temporal malefic because of this rulership.

However, becoming a temporal malefic, in no way removes the gifts that Venus

has to offer as a natural benefic. To receive the challenging side of Venus

(overly sensual, obsessive desiring luxury, etc.) Venus must be otherwise

afflicted in the chart.
