[Guest guest]

THE Classical text books on Astrology give a number of Graha Yogas for a

person to work in a Nyayasthala or a Court of Law, i.e., for a person to engage

in the legal profession. I give below some of the rules taken from a few

classical Hindu astrological authorities:

1. Saravali: In the chapter on Dwigraha Yogas, the combination of Mercury

and Venus is stated to make one qualified in law.

2. In the chapter on Chandra Navamsa Drigbala, it is stated if the Moon

occupies the Navamsa of Taurus or Libra and is aspected by Jupiter, the person

will be a lawyer and also a minister.

3. Satyachareeyam: The author attributes legal affairs to Jupiter in the

karakathwas of planets.

4. While describing the effects of the 10th house, he attributes a job in

the judiciary or as magistrate to Mars.

5. Giving an example horoscope, Satyacharya says a person born in Gemini

Lagna with Mercury, Jupiter, Mars and Moon in the 11th (Aries) will be employed

as a writer (clerk) in a court of law; since Mars owns the 6th house, a post in

a nyayalaya (court) is indicated.

6. Kumaraswamiyam: If the 10th house or the Navamsa of the 10th house fall

in the varga of Mercury, legal profession is indicagted.

7. Nadi Granthas: Mercury is attributed the karakatwa for a job in courts.

8. If Lagna lord is in the 10th, earnings through legal profession are

indicted.

9. If Mars is in the 1st, 5th or 9th, a career in law through clear

unambiguous arguments.

10. Saturn is indicated as karaka for a lawyer's profession.

11. If Jupiter, Mars, and Mercury occupy the 10th, one will be a judge.

12. If Jupiter, Mars, Sun and Saturn occupy the 10th, one will be a juidge

who gives deterrent and severe punishment.

13. If Mars is in 1, 5, 9, he will be an expert in Nyaya Sastra (Legal

Studies).

14. Uttarakalamrita: It is stated that if the lord of the Lagna occupies

the first Drekkana of the Lagna, the person will be a judge.

The above are some rules taken from a few important classics. Now we shall

take illustrative horoscopes of some people who have been successful in the

legal profession and try to derive some more astrological combinations from

these horoscopes.

Chart:1. 4.1.1952 at 11.13 IST 78.10E, 9.58N. Rasi--Pisces: Ascdt., the

Moon and Jupiter; Leo: Ketu; Virgo: Mars and Saturn; Scorpio: Mercury and Venus;

Chart No.1 is that of a brilliant person who has graduated both in

commerce and law. He attends both Civil and Criminal cases and he is also a

aspects the lord of the 4th house Mercury (who is also Karaka for legal

education). In the Bhava Chart Mercury comes to the 10th. He enrolled as an

and the Sun that of Jupiter. Both Mars and Jupiter occupy kendras and are in

mutual aspect which indicates a legal profession and also a post of authority

where he can indict severe punishment for the guilty. In this horoscope Jupiter,
