Guest guest Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 I agree and to the fact that, we need to rework on karkatava (specially relating to worldly affairs) in modern dynamics. I have yet to discover on role of rahu (beyond being karmic planets and as defined in books). In my limited experience - guru (though a somya graha - indicator of many positive results) does not work as dhana karaka. BTW - IT industry is governed not only by rahu, but a blend of saturn, venus and budha (the second group of all natural friends) - rahu / ketu being extension of shani- also form the part of it. The other planetary group - sun, moon, mars and jupiter has no significant role in technology. regards / Prafulla vedic astrology, Tatvam-Asi <nameisego wrote: > > Friends, > And if I remember right, > Maharshi Parashar has written, > If there third and 6th house has malefics/Krur planets from Aroodh Lagna, the person becomes wealthy. > > Prafulla ji, I have always seen that Guru tends to thrive in a house after sucking it out . > In second house, he , in what I have seen sofar, gives a lot of financial crisis in native's life.
