Love and Marriage, Horse and Carriage????

[Guest guest]

Dear Andrew,

In both the avatars, as Sri Ram and as Sri Krishna, the marriage was

not arranged. Sri Krishna's marriage was clearly a love marriage. Is this

not Vedic?

Hi Sanjay,

I like this "going to the basics approach". What has been puzzling me

is why 8th house is a laabha for the 10th house of profession? Also

is the 6th house (9th from the 10th) the house of your boss at

workplace?

 

Thanks.

 

Al

PS: I agree with you on interpretation of 5th house. It is a trine

house and therefore *love* based.

Dear Andrew,

The 11th house from any Bhava is the "Laabha" or the acts and things

that the house gains and grows from. The Marriage grows with love and

affection and of course, children. These are the fruits (Or gains ) from

marriage. It tells us whether the objective of marriage is going to be

achieved, and in what manner. Thus, a marriage without love and affection is

no marriage at all. Sometimes people stay married due to the presence of

children and their responsibilities. Thus, the fifth can be treated as a

cementing house for the marriage.

The fifth is trines to the ascendant and also shows the

mind..whether it is capable of loving like with a Venus in the fifth or is

too dumb for such sensitive things like with saturn in the fifth.

The fifth is the second from the fourth thereby it has primary

ARGALA (intervention) in its affairs. Thus if the fourth rules the heart ,

then, figuratively, the fifth will tell us what the person likes or who and

what occupies or influences his heart.

The fifth is not really the house for extra-marital ties. It just

shows who a person likes. It has nothing to do with LUST, but ONLY LOVE. For

lust, see the Darapada (Arudha Pada of the 7th house) and the second and

seventh from the Upapada (Arudha pada of the 12th house) as these show the

persons who will come into his PRIVATE life (A&) and share his bed (A12 or

UL). Finishing here as this is as far as I can go in public.

 

With Regards,

Sanjay Rath

Dear Al

It seems to be little recognised that the 8th shows success/failure. It's

quite common for successful entertainers to have powerful 8th houses. Of

course it's not confined to entertainers. If memory serves me well the

famous boxer Mohammed Ali (apologies if I got his name wrong, but I hope you

know who I mean) has a powerful 8th house. Paramahansa Yogananda has (I

believe) 9th lord MA conjunct 8th lord JU in 8th...the list goes on.

Wendy

Dear Al,

There is a detailed explanation on all these basics in my book Crux

of Vedic Astrology. I have taken the trouble of trying to explain every

important principle. I hope you enjoy it. If anything is amiss, please do

correct me.
