Guest guest Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Dear Bhaskar ji, As I made my point earlier, I am not raising this question with reference to the chart being discused in this thread. Hence, the question of lagna, who is badhaka or 5th lord are not important to me. Irrespective of what is the lagna of the chart, is it correct to say that both Mars (in Cancer) and Moon (in Scorpio) don't behave as debilitated planets (as a result of parivartana)? In my observation I have found that the answer to the above question to be YES. I want to know if learned people also share the same view. Please give your opinion by treating this as a generic question without considering the particular chart being analysed. Regards, Krishna Bhaskar <bhaskar_jyotish wrote: Dear Krishnaji, Apart from the debilitation of the 5th lord, and the badhakasthanadhipati placed in the 5th house, Moon acquires a bad Guna by being placed in Anuradha nakshatra owned by Saturn. And what about Saturn ? it acquires a highly malefic bad Guna, by being placed in mrigasira constellation owned by Mars. At the most as per my view, this native will be given to meditation in fits and starts, and abrupt closures, and may be able to gain some favour of a base female ( lower level) deity, in time to come which on the contrary may prove harmful to him, if he is not able to continue being good person , after this favour received,because his 9th house is again afflicted due to a debilitated Moon placed there, and a malefic Saturn aspecting it in full glory. But there is only one saving grace here, which i will not talk of now, but just give a clue, Ketu. best wishes, Bhaskar. , " Bhaskar " <bhaskar_jyotish wrote: > > Dear Krishnaji, > > Sorry to enter this thread. > First of all I am not of the > favour that in this case both > houses have > exchanged their Lords. i would > treat normally Mars.he > 5th House as per my little > knowledge. > Next even if any parivartana is > cited and allowed in above case, > keeping ketu as the 5th lord,I would > consider it as a most ordinary > parivartana, and not any thing > beyond it. > > Any powerful parivartana Yoga must > be recognised, as per my knowledge, > only if the exchange is in terms of > constellation,ie. if the 2 planets are > placed in each others constellation, > which is not so, in this case. > To make it a powerful exchange > Moon should have been in nakshatra > of Mars. > > Further, If I am not mistaken Budha > is placed in the 5th House, and Budha > is considered to be a Badhaksthandhipati, > so how will it ncrease the potential of the > 5th house, I am unable to understand. > It must on the contrary produce badhas. > > I do not view the exchange of Moon as a > significant one. > > This is of course my personal view, > and one is free to disagree. > > regards, > bhaskar. > > > > > , Krishnamurthy Seetharama > <krishna_1998@> wrote: > > > > Dear Narasimha, > > > > Please correct me if I make a wrong astrological statement below. > > > > " In my opinion, when an exchange takes place, the planets in > parivartana behave as if they are in their own signs (as a resultant > of exchange). > > > > Hence, in this particular case, though Moon is placed in the > sign of debilitation, it does not behave like a debilitated planet > due to parivartana and behaves as if it is placed in its own sign.
