Dear Jyotisa

A very general note on the arudha lagna. If you have doubts the gurus in this

forum can help to explain and I will ad my words...

-----------------------

Arudha lagnaArudha Lagna - The Personal image· Arudha lagna (AL) is the

image of a person (or any body) which is the reflection of the ascendant about

the lord of the ascendant. The ascendant is the physical personality &

intelligence while the ascendant lord is the applied intelligence (Paka lagna).

The arudha shows the way we are viewed in this world due to our overall

personality and resources as well as due to its use and modifications.·

There are arudha for each of the twelve houses and they represent the images

that exist in our minds. For example, the arudha of the fourth house represents

the home environment at childhood. If this is in a sign of Venus then it

indicates a strong presence of mother and her family in shaping childhood.·

The arudha lagna represents the final record of all events of ones life that

form the image of the person. This implies images of other houses adding to the

image of AL. Impact of darapada (A7) is crucial for relationships, finances and

social success.Planets & the arudha lagnaMoon is the significator of AL. Planets

like Moon & Jupiter who have a good reputation associating with arudha lagna

protect the reputation and image while planets like Saturn & Rahu with a bad

name spoil the image. In general the relationship of planets with the Moon

determines their ability to influence the arudha in a good or bad manner. The

status of the arudha lagna lord is the status of the native. Planets exalted in

the arudha lagna or the 7th from it promise reputation and success in their

fields as well as consequent good fortune. Debilitated planets in arudha ruin

the image. Benefic planets in the 1, 2, 4, 5, 7 & 8 houses and malefic planets

in 3 & 6 houses give good results if they are strong in rasi & navamsa. Instead

if the planets are weak in debility in the rasi or navamsa, the results will be

contrary. On the other hand, weak benefic planets in the 3 & 6 houses from

arudha lagna give rajayoga. The tenth house is good for benefic planets only

and even exalted malefic planets in this house cause trouble. Any planet in the

9th house from arudha lagna gives good results and protects the image while they

give good income in the 11th house and losses and expenses in the 12th. Birth

family & arudha Further readingCo-born: Younger co-born from 3rd house & lord

and elders from 11th house and lord. Children from the 9th house from Upapada

Protector from the 9th house from arudha lagna…and so on. Transits &

arudhaTransit of Saturn in the 1st, 4th, 8th & 10th houses from lagna and

arudha are inauspicious. Transit of Jupiter in quadrants from arudha lagna is a

blessing. Transit of Rahu in trines to arudha lagna gives rajayoga and material

blessings while that of Ketu in trines is excellent for spiritual pursuits and

renunciation. The Sun & Moon in trines to any arudha causes it to manifest

Change of image with time· The image or arudha is maya or untruth and

cannot be permanent. It changes with time based on dasa. · Every dasa

affects the arudha by (1) house placement from it and (2) argala (planetary

intervention)· Narayaëa dasa, Vimsottari dasa and other such methods

of progression are useful tools to decipher the changes in image. ·

Natural years of carakaraka replacement also cause major changes in the

arudha.· Change in jobs, attainment of position and authority, marriage

and various other events cause changes in the image depending on the association

of their respective images with the arudha lagna.· Study dasa from

standard texts.
