2-& Deepak, from Mark K....4/7......re.... Lagna Lord - Benefic or Malefic?

[Guest guest]

Dear Deepak & All:

 

There's actually 2 ways of thinking about the relative benefic or malefic

status of our Planets...

 

Yes, I think the Lagna Lord is always, 'essentially benefic'...

 

but if the first house lord, is in the 12th house, 6th or 8th....

then, it may be potentially, benefic, but certainly may be found functioning

as a malefic.

 

Take the example, too, of Planets that are ruleing the traditionally,

considered, malefic 6th, 8th or 12th houses...

 

They're generally thought of as malefic, but they can certainly be found

acting benefically, especially if they're in their own, sign, or Exalted!

 

I love what the sage, Mahrishi Parashara was supposed to say about the

planets..

 

In the beginning of his book, on Hora Sastra, he says: "In the Beginning

Lord Vishnu entered into the grahas to bestow upon his devotees, the

consequences of their karmas."

 

I love this expression because it helps me understand that basically,

essentially, all the Planets are benefic or good!

 

Only sometimes, the lord, radiates back to us, less then desirable results,

to teach us, so we aspire to develop and improve that side of us....

 

Let's say, someone has Sani, in the 12th House. And it's definitely acting

malefic there!

 

Ah...take my chart, yikes!,....but having a Libra rising my Sani, though

it's in the 12th house, is still supposed to be benefic!, being yogakaraka,

and all...

 

but, my experience, is it's been completely malefic for me!

 

There with my Moon, too, I've experienced a lot of Saturn 12th house,

'losses', due to Sani, including...loss of emotional happiness, sadness,

loneliness, lack of money and lots of losses due to too many expenditures..

 

But, immediately when I started strengthening my Sani, and practicing other

jyotish remedies which can be said, to directly improve Saturn....I've

noticed a complete turn about in my experience of what was previously a very

malefic Saturn...

 

Both, medititation and studying Jyotish, and especially, the daily Transits,

all, have had a very powerful effect on allowing me to reap, the more

positive, and Benefic qualities of Sani!

 

 

Hope this helps...

 

 

Namaste...
