dear VIC Rahu-Ketu and house characteristics?

[Guest guest]

Dear Niket,

 

I wanted Deepak to answer himself, to get practice in how to do

astrology. Without doing homework students rarely have the concepts

sink in deeply. I participate in this forum not to give readings but

to learn astrology and, in turn, to teach it. So I am not interested

in reading anyone's horoscope here (though I would love to if they

would like to contact personally in that regard), but I AM very highly

interested in learning and teaching here. That's why I am answering

the way I am.

 

So let's me direct some further queries to Deepak based on what you've

said. These questions are meant to illustrate the thinking process of

an astrologer.

 

 

> 1. His ketu is in 4th house in Jup nakshtra and mars which is in 9th

> house is aspecting it,

 

How many degrees are between The focus of the Mars aspect and Ketu's

actual position?

 

Who is the ruler of the 4th House and tell me about his or her

situation?

 

Jupiter is Ketu's nakshatra lord... tell me about Jupiter's position.

 

Is ketu happy in this house? Why or why not?

 

What is the friendliness between Ketu and Jupiter? between Ketu and

Mars?

 

What can you say about your normal state of happiness and

contentedness based on this?

 

 

> 2. His rahu is in Sun nakshtra and he lost his job in JUP>VEN>RAHU

> as venus is also exalted, and SAT is in 8th house on own nakshtra

> also aspecting his friends (10house) sign. and vin is in SAT nakshtra.

 

Rahu is in which sign? Who is the ruler and how is that ruler doing?

 

Rahu is in the Sun's nakshatra. Where is the sun? Is he doing well, or

suffering?

 

An exalted planet being involved in a job loss is interesting. What is

the relationship between the Dasha lord Jupiter and the Bhukti lord

Venus? Friends or enemies? What houses do they both rule?

 

You point to the fact that Venus is in Saturn's nakshatra who is in

the 8th. I think this is a good lead.

 

> 3. what you say Rahu is exalted in VRASHAB and Ketu is exalted in

> Vrashchika.

 

Exaltation and Debilitation of Rahu and Ketu is debatable. What I like

to consider more prominently is their direction and speed. A

stationary node is phenomenally exalted and nearly stationary nodes

are nearly phenomenal. Nodes moving FORWARDS are very powerful

influences. I like to consider this before considering sign dignity

for the nodes especially.

 

But I do agree with your assessment, though I acknowledge there are

multiple opinions.

 

 

Yours,

Vic DiCara / Vraja Kishor
