Guest guest Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 Dear Friends, Namaskar! This is an interesting exchange and I learned a few things. I am presenting my chart here for your comments. My Venus is afflicted by Mars and Rahu by conjunction, and Ketu is 7th from it. In 7th bhava, I have retrograde Saturn who is also the lord of the house and aspects my lagna - whose lord is Sun. Does that mean I have nothing to cheer for relationship maters; either marital or business? What would be your interpretation for that area of my life?
