Guest guest Posted December 23, 2001 Report Share Posted December 23, 2001 OHM SHRI RAGAVENDRAYA NAMAH JAYA JAGANNATHA Namaste Beau, Mercury is special planet. It is naturally a benefic, so when it is alone, it is benefic. When it conjoins malefics, it is malefic. If it is with benefics, it is more benefic. When it conjoins equal number of malefic and benefic, it depends on the strength of the conjoining planets. Depending on stronger of malefics and benefics conjoined, Mercury's nature varies. Then what is mean by Malefic and Benefic. Benefics are soft satwick teachers and malefics are hard police. Both are for the benefit of the native. Both sets rules and punish us and appreciates us. But their mode and method is different. One punish us by reducing the marks in the class tests and other punish us by beating.

I still have a question about finding Mercury'snatural beneficence/neutrality/maleficence: Is he naturally benefic,naturally neutral, or naturally malefic when conjoined with an equivalentnumber of benefics and malefics in the Rasi chart?Thank you for your time and help,Beau-----Original Message----- "Solai Kannan" <solai@i...> Sat Dec 22, 2001 11:24 pm Questions on Planetary Beneficence and MaleficenceOHM SHRI RAGAVENDRAYA NAMAHJAYA JAGANNATHANamaste Beau,1. Rasi is basic and it is the key for determination. So, if moon or mercuryis malefic for Rasi chart, then he is malefic for the native through out thelife and through out the divisional the charts. But, the functionalityvaries depending on the placement in the individual divisional chart. Ifmoon is malefic as per Rasi chart and if it is functionally benefic indivisional chart, he will be naturally malefic, but, functionally beneficw.r.t. that divisional chart.To understand better, we have our Lady Pharmacist, she is a very hard andstrict person with all the staffs, even very senior Directors are afraid totalk to her. But, she is very soft with lower level staffs, withoutcompromising on the strictness. So, the strictness is her basic or naturalmalefic nature. The softness with lower level staffs is benefic quality forthat particular group or (divisional chart).Even this above functionality is applicable in Rasi chart too.2. Moon:- There are many opinions on its benefic or malefic determination.As per Gurudeva, Moon is stronger from the 8 th day (Ashtami) of waxingperiod - Shukla Paksha - to the 8th day (Ashtami) of waning period - KrishnaPaksha. It is understandable. During these periods, moon is relativelystronger and brighter than the other half. Only when it is brighter andstronger he can be benefic. But it is benefic only from Shukla PakshaEkadasi to Krishna Paksha Panchami.3. Mercury:- Your understanding is correct and your second part of thequestion is answered in 1st para. This is applicable not only to Mercury andMoon, it is applicable for all planets.ThanksSolai KannanBeau Binder [bbinder (AT) clipper (DOT) net]22 December 2001 10:59 PMShri Jagannath Vedic Center class[sjvc] Questions on Planetary Beneficence and Maleficencenamo vaH, gurus and sisyas,I have some questions regarding the determination of Moon's and Mercury'sbenefic or malefic nature in a varga. Could some of you please give me someguidance?My current understanding, based on Narasimhaji's book 'Vedic Astrology: AnIntegrated Approach', is that the following rules apply:Jupiter and Venus are always naturally benefic.Sun, Mars, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu are always naturally malefic. (I didn'tsee Saturn listed on page 24, but inferred it's status from other commentaryin the book.)Moon is naturally benefic when waxing, and naturally benefic when waning.As this can only be determined from the rAshi chart configuration, it seemsthat the Moon's natural state for a particular native is either alwaysnaturally benefic or naturally malefic in all vargas for that native. Isthis correct? Also, is it benefic when it is at its fullest and maleficwhen newest, the points at which it is not waxing or waning?Mercury is naturally benefic when alone, or conjoined with more naturalbenefics.Mercury is naturally malefic when conjoined with more natural malefics.Is Mercury's natural beneficence or natural maleficence calculated from therAshi chart and then maintained throughout the rest of the vargas, or is itrecalculated based the placement of the planets in each varga? Also, isMercury benefic, neutral, or malefic when conjoined with an equivalentnumber of benefics and malefics?Thank you for your help!Best regards,Beau Terms of Service. -------------------------- Please note the new International Hospital of Bahrain Email address.

Guest guest Posted December 25, 2001 Report Share Posted December 25, 2001 Pranam Guru Solai, On the same thread ... could you clarify the impact of an association with a natural malefic vs. a functional malefic in the Rasi chart. For example Ve a natural benefic is a functional malefic for Dhanus lagna. What results would association of Ve yield? The same could also be applied to a natural malefic and a functional benefic (e.g. Ma for Dhanus).
