Guest guest Posted January 16, 2001 Report Share Posted January 16, 2001 Hello rob/All, This is very interesting, and I never thought of this in the way that it was presented; Rob, my thanks for the clarification. You said in your post that Rahu wil obscure the effects of any planet with whih it conjoins. In my chart, Saturn and Rahu conjoin in the 4th house, giving rise to Kapata Yoga; could you, or anyone else, explain the potential effects for sucha conbination as you have descirbed?

You are welcome! Rahu in the 4th, particularly with Saturn, can set a number of scenarios. The 4th may represent one's culture of birth, and thus the accepted values or belief systems as part of that culture. Saturn is a malefic lord for Sg. rising, and thus represents a feeling of being judged or isolated from such cultural belief structures. Rahu gives the feeling of being an outcaste, or someone who has difficulty finding acceptance; this could have been exasperated by Saturn's judgement, or mandate to live up to some kind of religious, political, or other societal structures. Now, even in the age of civil rights and supposed equality of the races, racism exists still in America, and I believe given that you are a person of color in a (subtly, but noticeable) prejudicial society, you would have thus felt alienated due to the pressures of such negative vibrations. Note that in your Navamsa chart, the Moon - which is the karaka for the 4th house - is also with Rahu, and would thus suggest a need to heal internal wounds, by reforming or seeking to transmute the twisted cultural attitudes toward your race of people. You will do this by teaching both astrological and spiritual principles, as well as the psychological ones. Now, Saturn becomes powerful in your Navamsa chart , as ruler of and occupant of the 9th house, where he gets the very favorable Argala from Jupiter in Pisces in the 10th. So you take the bull by the horns, ignore the rejection of the past due to birth in a racist society, and become very effective in the matter of working for the mission of dharma, and spreading truth and knowledge in the world. Thus, this work itself enables you to transcend what exists evidently in the birth chart through a combination of Saturn and Rahu. Jupiter/Ketu/Mars are a great Raja-yoga in your chart for an astrologer, with Jupiter ruling 1 and 4, Mars ruling 5, and all joining in the 10th. So go for it with full strength. If you see the Jupiter/Mars/Ketu combination from the vantage point of Rahu, which is the dasha you are now in (taking Rahu as the lagna for the duration of that dasa), then it still remains a powerful dharma and Raja yoga, being lord of the 9th and 10th, and placed in the 7th. So Rahu's dasa, apart from the restrictions of Saturn, gain ground consistently in the teaching of, an practise of an astrologer throughout its duration. What then to speak of the dashas of Jupiter! I hope that helps clarify - With regards, Robert ===================================== Robert A. Koch, Vedic Astrologer 760 NW Broken Arrow Rd.
