20. Repayment of loan by the native (The Eighth house is also related for ¡repayment¢ as creditor will earn in ¡repayment¢ which is referred by Second house from Seventh house)

21. Institutionalized religion and religious houses, Mutts, Ashrams etc.

Notes::

The nature of the Planet and the nature of its influence arrived at, by finding its strength, position, preference, and influence with graded strength, will decide the accruing results out of this ¡Twelfth House¢ , related Desa Bukti and other factors to be taken into account for assessment.

Corollaries::

When a twelfth house is influenced by Malefic Planets and, similarly, the owner of twelfth house is influenced by such malefic planets, the person will wonder from one country to another, in appropriate periods;

A Planet connected with the Second, Seventh (or Ninth) and the twelfth houses makes a native go away from his family on along journey to a far away place;

If the fourth and the twelfth houses are connected , it indicates a change in residence.

The Moon in this house is in a movable sign the person will wonder in his own country or abroad.

If Twelfth house is connected through Planets and its positions, with Second, sixth, and tenth houses, it indicates service in hospitals, while this house is connected only with sixth house, the native could be hospitalized in concern Desa Bukthi timings.

Similarly if this house and the ninth house is related through related Planets, indicates a long journey as also life abroad.

If the weak and afflicted owner of the twelfth house is placed in the third, sixth or eighth house and has malefic influence with any redeemable benefic effects, it gives raise to ¡Vipareeth raja Yoga¢ and confers immense riches.

And so on to quote many corollaries with the twelfth house.

Dear Chiranjiv ji,Since Bhaskar ji is not available to comment, let me try to explain a little.//Your take on the 12th house, especially about long term investments, advisory role in investments etc, I have heard. But not quite understood why.......bhavat bhav or simply a theorem.//

The clue is that 12H is 2H from 11H of gains and shows what we do with gains or how the gains are invested. 12H is also 11H of 2H again showing multiplying the income. Further, it is bhagya of our fixed assets in 4H, meaning long term investments again.

//As for your remark about industrialists/ big businessman have prominent 6/12th house, do they include/mean drishti relationship also?//6H is one of the upchay houses and is very important from business point of view. It is the bhagya of karma (10H) and karma of Bhagya (9H). If this house is not strong then both karma and bhagya would suffer. 6H is also hard work, strife, competition, taxes, etc, which are all part of running a good business.

6/12 axis is taken as from 12H, when planets aspect 6H, they strengthen the house and also show investments and reinvestments. (of course for auspicious effects one has to see the benefic dispositions). Hence drishti and relationship is always important along with the lordship.

Basically 6/12 axis augments our investments in learning and earning. (can you see why?). Hence important for a businessman.Success in foreign lands require good bhagya, settling in foreign lands means 12th house involvement. So does it mean .... those who migrate r not successful people ?

Some confusions (subtle) I am asking you and other members to clarify.12H means foreign land. If it is for travel only, connect it with 9H (distant and long journeys) or 3H (short journeys). Only when 4H/4L gets connected with 12H and 4H itself is afflicted, there is settlement abroad. Going abroad was not supposed to be good in earlier times and was considered a kind of 'patan'. Now with everyone hankering to go abroad and looking for fortunes in foreign lands, it has taken a different meaning. Whenever one goes to a foreign land, there is always a loss to lagna (?), isn't it. But also, 12H is the place where bhagya resides and happiness of bhagya is seen (4H to 9H), so if 12H is good, bhagya smiles in a foreign land and one can find happiness abroad. But there are many who go abroad and live miserably ever after. Some get imprisoned, do not find a job, get into wrong relationships, ultimately undergo a lot of hardships.

Hope I am clear.RegardsNeelam
