I'm writing this post at the request of others, for the further understanding of 3rd and 6th from AL. Unless the benefics are strong, the person will delay their renunciation, and that too the planets must be exalted. See the houses from Arudha Lagna will show how you react to this world, whilst the houses from Lagna will show what you receive from this world. Example: if you have planets in the 6th house from Lagna, those types of enemies will trouble you, but whether you retaliate or not is seen from the 3rd and 6th houses from Arudha Lagna. Benefics in the 3rd and 6th houses from Arudha Lagna will indicate a path of peace or renunciation. And that too when those planets are strong. If weak then one will easily succumb to the path of the malefics, namely that of getting the material fruits of this world. See there are two types of worship in this world. Right Hand (3rd house) ruled by Brhaspati and Left Hand (11th house) ruled by Sukracharya. The left handed worship will always amount to fruits from this world, no matter what you offer. Whilst the right handed worship must be good karma (benefics) to move towards spirituality, whilst bad karma (malefics) will obstruct ones spirituality, but can give material fruits as they will obstruct the work of Brhaspati and allow Shukracharya to have his way. Why both 3rd and 6th houses? The 3rd and 6th houses in the natural zodiac are Gemini and Virgo respectively. The opposite signs to these are Sagittarius (9th) and Pisces (12th) respectively, which show the Guru and the Mahaåñis intervening in our lives, and their intention towards us. That's why the 3rd house is said to indicate Guru- Upadesa, as it's the 7th from the 9th house. The Guru's requirement is Sattva Guna - i.e. be pure. If you offer Tamas (s)he will not be inclined to help you and will leave. Hence a main requirement for choosing students is that they should preferably not have malefics in the 9th house from Lagna, and that too the Tamas Guna Grahas; Rahu, Saturn or Mars, off which Saturn is the worst and can cause separation between the Guru-Sishya. Off-course there are other riders as well - A9, Guru, etc. Now if one does happen to have benefics in 3rd/6th from AL, they will give spirituality if they are strong, as this makes the good karma produced very auspicious and taken easily by the Guru. But if the benefics are weak, then the Guru's will not take them easily, and the spirituality is delayed in proportion to the good karma produced. By nature benefics in 3rd/6th from AL will make the person a good- hearted individual without doubt. Among the benefics those who are Rajasic will decrease ones ties to Samsara, these are Venus and Mercury. The stronger they are, the more severed the bond to Samsara will be. Any afflictions or weaknesses (in both rasi and navamsa) will delay the same and hence delay ones spirituality from arising. Now if you think abit more in these lines, you will find that the planets in 3rd and 6th from AL will show our attitude towards spirituality, and which ideals/activities are taking us away from the spiritual path. Malefics in 3rd/6th from AL can cause spirituality if they are weak. Hope this helps Best wishes, Visti Larsen visti@s... ---- ---------- ||Om Brihaspataye Namah|| Dear Visti, Just a small doubt; when you state that the apoklima houses from AL are governed by a lot of tamas guna, I understand that this is not a general statement as it depends on where the AL is. For example, if the AL is in a dual sign, then the apoklimas will be all tamas guna else if the AL is in a fixed signs, then the apoklimas will be all rajasic and if the AL is in a movable sign, only the apoklimas are all satvic! Please correct my understanding, if wrong. Hope you are having a great time at Puri. Saw your photos; they look good; I especially liked the photo of you going over some notes and Sanjay sitting in padmasana. Convey my regards to Sanjay and Sarbani. regards Hari Jaya Jagannath ---- ---------- Tax Center - File online by April 15th --- End forwarded message --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
