Guest guest Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 My answer may not be what you may be looking for here, Bhaskar bhai but here goes: I will choose the 2nd house over the 11th house, particularly not knowing how the 12th house playes into this paheli! I am not even going to look into the spiritual aspects of the two houses, 2nd and 11th a lot or literally. >From a pragmatic sense and it could be biased by my personal experiencing of life as it is -- in worldly terms, while gains and earnings (11th) may be a big ticket for some, for me it has always been about what I could tap into, what I could utilize when I need it. To me, the 2nd represents the savings and they may obviously be related to the earnings (11) but not entirely so and not in all cases. When I need something now, I cannot wait for the next paycheque (11) and I feel uncomfortable taking loans against a future paycheque! So if it is not there in the 2nd house, then it would cause me anxiety, hence I would be more in favour of the 2nd as opposed to 11th. However, some may argue that if 11 is not strong one may not have much of a happy story regarding the 2nd. Agreed, superficially, but the 2nd also represents niyama, discipline and savings come out of discipline and not just a fat paycheque for most of us individual common folks! The niyama that allows us to save money and activate the 2nd house also helps us in our other spendings, spiritually speaking but I did say that I will stay away from that aspect of the human experience ;-) The 2nd also represents education, and learning. The knowledge that is acquired and becomes our acquisition and comes in handy when times change, when geographical locations change and so on, I therefore would also fortify my 2nd as opposed to the 11th. The 2nd also represents vani, speech, communication (the 3rd too according to some, but 2nd primarily in my experience) and these are assets (2nd) that are valued worldwide. And last but not the least, family (2nd) what would be the purpose of all the maya if that aspect of our experience were not exist and be full of joy! Hence my vote again goes for strengthening the 2nd. And finally, what would be the point of it all, if there were not death, finality? If we just kept living on and on, what would be the point of it all? It is the death, the finality of it, the moment when we get our results of all the examinations earlier, that make the examinations earlier, meaningful and all the studying and learning towards that examination and result! Friends and elder brothers and expendible incomes (11) are important but what would be the point if we could not save the experiences and the memories and the BALANCE (2) therefore is important in my view!
