Hello,

 

>From what I've read in the classics the second house rules the speech

and truthfullness, whereas the third rules the throat and sound of

voice.

 

As for writing the 5th house is that of scholarship. I have only

found two references to authorship in BPHS.

 

Chapter 26 slokas 57 and 59

 

It says that if the 5th lord is in the 9th or 11th the person will be

a great author. Other than that I have found nothing. Also for

musical ability I only found one reference to the 4th house. Chapter

17 sloka 3.

 

However I know that musical instruments skill as well as singing

voice is also realted to the third.

 

The third is the house of communication, such as books, and is

related to the performing arts. I am also interested in this topic,

and would be very eager to read any of the classics that deal with

the communicative aspect of the third. Whether they are Eastern or

Western classics. I would be glad to receive some direction.

 

Thanks,

 

Alex

Parasara also places importance to trines in navamsa indicating

innate nature of a person in determining writers, musicians, singers

etc.

 

I have Sun in 5th from Karakamsa and I have great liking for music

and playing musical instruments

 

Examples

 

If Guru and Chandr are in Karakamsh or the 5th there of, the native

will be an author.

 

Shukr in Karakamsh or in the 5th from there will make one

an ordinary writer,

 

while Buddh in Karakamsh or in the 5th from there will

indicate that the writing skills are less than those of an

ordinary writer.

 

Should Guru be alone in Karakamsh or in the 5th from there,

one will be a knower of everything, be a writer, and be

versed in Vedas and Vedanta philosophy, but not an

oratorian or a grammarian.

 

Mangal in Karakamsh or in the 5th from there denotes a

logician,

 

Buddh in Karakamsh or in the 5th from there denotes a

Mimamsaka (follower of Karma Mimansa philosophy),

Shani in Karakamsh or in the 5th from there indicates that

one is dull-witted in the assembly,

 

Surya in Karakamsh or in the 5th from there denotes that

one is a musician,

 

Chandr in Karakamsh or in the 5th from there denotes a

follower of Sankhya philosophy (of Maharishi Kapila who

enumerated 25 true principles with emphasis on final

bliss), and indicates that one is versed in rhetorics

and singing,

 

and Ketu or Rahu in Karakamsh or in the 5th from there

denotes that one is a Jyotishi.

Hello,

 

Thanks for the information. Yes, also the 5th from Karakamsh is

important for writing and music. Why the 5th house? Because it is the

house of scholarship and creativity?
