Guest guest Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Dear Mrs.Wendy, In one of your previous posts you have written that Kuja Vad ketu. If that's the case why is that ketu gets exalted in Scorpio a Martian sign? Another question I have is regarding exaltation. As I understand, a planet in exaltation give only benefic effects. How far this is true? If the planet is a malefic like mars, doesn't that make the person stubborn and insensitive to a certain extent. Mars though it gets exalted in Makara(capri) has its 7th aspect on Cancer its sign of debilitation. Does it affect the house of debilitation positively? Regards, Manasa.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Dear Manasa, ///In one of your previous posts you have written that Kuja Vad ketu. If that's the case why is that ketu gets exalted in Scorpio a Martian sign?/// Kuja Vad Ketu means (if I'm not mistaken) Kuja is akin to Ketu (and vice versa). The question then begs to be asked; what does this mean, what is this relationship? We spoke earlier of the necessity to consider the legitimate ruler of Scorpio when assessing the results due to Ketu. It goes without saying, that during the dasa of Kuja (Mars), one also should consider the effect of Ketu...both are associated with Scorpio therefore both need to be considered. BTW why should it be strange for Ketu to be exalted in (own sign) Scorpio? Mercury too gets exalted in (own sign) Virgo... BPHS (http://jyotishvidya.com/ch47.htm) *34-39½. In order to clarify the effects of the Dasha of Rahu I shall first mention the exaltation and debilitation Rashis of Rahu and Ketu. The exaltation Rashi of Rahu is Vrishabh. The exaltation Rashi of Ketu is Vrischik. The Multrikonas of Rahu and Ketu are Mithun and Dhanu. The own Rashis of Rahu and Ketu are Kumbh and Vrischik.* ///Another question I have is regarding exaltation. As I understand, a planet in exaltation give only benefic effects. How far this is true? If the planet is a malefic like mars, doesn't that make the person stubborn and insensitive to a certain extent./// Mars is the planet of courage, energy, drive and ambition... Depending on what houses he rules this energy can be extremely beneficial. ///Mars though it gets exalted in Makara(capri) has its 7th aspect on Cancer its sign of debilitation. Does it affect the house of debilitation positively?/// A planet's dignity is determined by occupation; not aspect. The result due to aspect would depend on several things i.e., functional nature (benefic or malefic) etc, etc.. Every chart is unique and, although the sages have given us guidelines, they are, after all, only guidelines and cannot be applied ver batam in every situation. Some level of discernment (on our part) is required...the sages themselves tell us this, as should our own common-sense.
