Benefic or Malefic: Aspects

[Guest guest]

Dear Imran-ji & other gurus

 

Thanks for the concise explanation.

 

Now taking your example further with tauras lagna and Sa as

functional benefic (yogakarak as well). Consider that this saturn is

placed in libra (exalted).

 

How would one analyse the aspects made by saturn ?

 

For example saturn from libra aspects 8th house, 12th house and 3rd

house.

 

So do we consider these aspects benefic (due to the functional

nature) or malefic (due to saturn being a natural malefic) ?

 

Please advice.

 

Thanks and kind regards.

Adhyaayin

 

Om Sri Gurubhyo Namah

chart. Let say, Saturn is a functional benefic for Taurus ascendant.

If is badly placed or in bad avastha (debiliated, or combust), then

this does not snatch the status of Saturn of beign functional

benefic. Here it would simply mean functional benefic is weak due to

bad avastha.
