Hello Nicholas and all

 

Thank you for a very clear post.I am a student of Jyotish and very glad to

be on this list.

 

The ruler of my 12 house Mercury is in Capricorn conj Rahu (and the Sun)

in the 4th house. I was wondering how detrimental for Mercury it is to be so

close to Rahu. And what about the Sun in an almost partile conj with Rahu!!

I have been an astrologer for a long time and in the west the

NN has more positive connotations. I have learned since that Rahu is not

understood in the same manner in Jyotish, hence my question.

GENERALLY WHEN A PLANET IS CLOSE TO RAHU IT RESULTS IN DISTURBANCES OF THE

PLANETS FUNCTIONAL AND NATURAL SIGNIFICATIONS .SOME PARTS OF YOUR CHART ARE

QUITE STRONG .SATURN'S EXALTATION IN THE SIGN OF A PLANET THAT IS ALSO

EXALTED SUGGESTS A GOOD ABILITY WITH PHILOSOPHY AND IDEAS POSSIBLY WITH

ARTISTIC OR MUSICAL TALENTS .

 

 

 

And what about the Sun in an almost partile conj with Rahu!!

 

SOME POSSIBILITIES HERE ARE ABILITY AT RESEARCH ,ANXIETY ,NERVOUS EXHAUSTION

,ASTHMA ,COMMUMICATION DIFFICULTIES,FRUSTRATION WITH INCOME ,UNUSUAL DESIRES

,LIVING AWAY FROM HOMELAND,ERRATIC SPENDING HABITS ,INABILITY TO SEE ONESELF

OBJECTIVELY ,LIKING AND ATTRACTION FOR THE FOREIGN

 

ONE POINT THOUGH IS THAT ALTHOUGH MOST OF THE INTERPRETATIONS FOR THIS

COMBINATION ARE SOMEWHAT NEGATIVE THESE COMBINATIONS ARE SURE TO MANIFEST

SOME POSITIVE SIDE .QUITE POSSIBLY YOU HAVE AN ABILLITY TO THINK AND WORK IN

UNUSUAL WAYS .THIS CAN BE QUITE USEFUL .AS SOMEONE WHO HAS MANAGED OTHERS

FOR TWO DECADES I OFTEN LEARN FROM THOSE WHO TACKLE THEIR TASKS OR THINK

OUTSIDE THE NORM .A GOOD EXAMPLE OF THIS CAN BE FOUND IN THE RECENT TIME

ARTICLE ON AUTISM .(I'M GOING ON MEMORY HERE I DON'T HAVE THE ARTICLE IN

FRONT OF ME) THERE IS ONE AUTISTIC LADY WHO VISUALISED WHAT BEING IN A BARN

WAS LIKE FROM A COW'S POINT OF VIEW WITH THEIR EYES MORE TO THE SIDE OF THE

HEAD .APPARENTLY SHE HAS REVOLUTIONISED DESIGN .

SOMETIMES WHEN WELL PLACED AND ASPECTED RAHU CAN GIVE MATERIAL BOONS .SOME

PANDITS OPINE THAT NOONE CAN BENEDICT LIKE RAHU .THE 7 PLANETS ARE ALL RULED

BY THE DEVAS WHEREAS RAHU IS AN ASURA .THE ASURAS ARE OFTEN BETTER EQUIPPED

WITH TECHNOLOGY ,MATERIAL COMFORTS,ENJOYMENTS AND FACILITIES THAN THE DEVAS

..SOMETIMES THE ASURAS OVERPOWER THE DEVAS AND THE DEVAS HAVE TO TAKE SHELTER

OF LORD VISNU .

IN MANY CASES THE FRUSTRATION THAT RAHU CAN BRING ABOUT CAN GIVE POWERFUL

INSIGHTS AND HELP ONE TURN TOWARDS THE SPIRITUAL .

 

Hope this helps
