There is lot of confusions over these aspects in the minds of astrologers and beginners.
So I thought lets have a discussion on these parameters.
I will try my level best to explain these with whatever limited knowledge I have.
Generally all these concepts are part of Jaimini Astrology and when these concepts find their place and identification with Parashar methodology, confusion starts.
It happens that even Astrologers fails to recognize the lead from where the analysis could be started
There are lots of parameters around one aspect – SPOUSE, so It’s very important for us to have a clear distinction between all of them as all the concepts have their own relevance.
Factors considered
- Venus—natural Sthira karaka for spouse.(as per Parashar)
Note: From the angle of nadi Jyotish, Venus is considered as marriage karaka for males and for females its mars. - Darakaraka— natural charakaraka for spouse.(As per Jaimini)[The planet with the lowest degree when compared to other planets]
- Upa pad (Arudh of 12th house i.e. UL), Arudh pad of 7th house from it,
7th house from UL, 2nd house from UL (As per Jaimini) - Arudh lagan, pad of 7th house from it(extension by modern astrologers), 7th house from AL(as per Jaimini), 2nd house from AL(as per Jaimini)
- 7th lord and house from lagan chart.( as per Parashar)
- 7th lord and house from navamsa chart.( as per Parashar)
- 7th lord and house from karakans chart.( as per Parashar)
- 7th lord and house from moon chart.( as per Parashar)
- Planetary aspects on above mentiones parameters.
- Strength of planets involved in above parameters.
Venus:-
It is a bhava karak for the 7th house (as per Parashar) – will decide the SUSTAINITY of the 7th BHAVA itself hence its significations.
It is also the Sthira karaka (Lord shiva-destruction) for marriage and so have a major role to play in deciding the final DESTRUCTION of the marriage.(Again Longevity of the marriage).
It is also the naisargik karak (Lord Brahma-creation) of the Beauty, marriage and luxury therefore initiation/CREATION of all these factors in our life would be governed by Venus.
7th lord of lagan and 7th lord of navamsa chart.
All above have to say regarding the sustenance, longevity and stability of married life.
Aspects and placement of planets In 7th house from Lagan, 7th house from Navamsa,7th house from Arudh lagan,7th house from karkans,7th house from shatyamsa.
These 5 have to say about the LOOKS of the spouse.
Parashar also recommends to see the 7th house from 7th lord and Venus
so 5+2=7 basic factors
AS PER JAIMINI ,Planetary Aspects and placement In Upa pad lagan and 2nd from It…
ALL This have to say about the FAMILY STATUS of the spouse, NATURE and CHARACTER of the spouse, your attitude towards your spouse and STABILITY/LOGETIVITY of the married life. So again SUSTAINITY.
7th from UL.
Represents the native itself.
Darakara.(planet with lowest degree)-As per Jaimini
Have to again say bout the SUSTAINTY of the married life(since it is a charakarak -LORD VISHNU- SUSTAINER), as well as about the SPRITUAL nature of the spouse.
Relationship of darakarak with Atmakarka will comment on the spritual bond between the couple.(trikond and kendra relationship is good)
My observation:
7th lord from moon.
This have to say about your own DESIRE and WILL POWER, to sustain the married life.
7th house from moon.
This has to say about your mental comfort level with the spouse.
AL7 (pad of 7th house from lagan)-As per Jaimini
Have to say about, how the world PERCEIVE about your spouse.
also, It will say that which aspect of spouse is dominant for you and the world.
It will also comment about the LOOKS of the spouse.
Relationship of Arudh lagan and darapad (trikond, Kendra, 2nd, 11th are good) will say about how the world will perceive you as a couple.
Strictly speaking as per Parashar, Planets aspecting and placed in 7th house of lagan, navamsa, Karkamsa, shatyamsa
also have to say about the nature, character, looks of the spouse
Jaimini advice to see these things from Upa pad lagan, 2nd,7th and 11th houses from UL
How to use lagan, navamsa and shatyamsa chart together by mixing things in the analysis of spouse related things:-
AL and AL7 relationship.(should be in Trikond,kendra,11th,2nd)
Analyse this relationship in all three charts.
If this relationship comes out to be 6th/8th/12th in at least 2 charts out of 3 charts under focus…relationship would not be in harmony.
Otherwise it would be in harmony
Atmakarka and darakark relationship(should be in Trikond,kendra,11th,2nd).
Analyze this relationship in all three charts.
If this relationship comes out to be 6th/8th/12th in at least 2 charts out of 3 charts under focus…relationship would not be in harmony.
Otherwise it would be in harmony.
Lagan lord and 7th lord relationship.(should be in Trikond,kendra,11th,2nd).
Analyze this relationship in all three charts.
If this relationship comes out to be 6th/8th/12th in at least 2 charts out of 3 charts under focus…relationship would not be in harmony.
Otherwise it would be in harmony.
IF out of the above three REALTIONSHIP PARAMETERS
If the outcome of at least two is favorable then the relationship would be in harmony.
Darapad in rashi chart shows that which aspect of native’s life is influenced by the spouse PHYSICALLY/MATERIALISTICALLY.
For example if dara pad falls in 2nd house – Spouse would primarily influence money, food and family aspect of the native.
That influence would be positive if there are benefic parameters related to the 2nd house.
In that condition, spouse would take care of family nicely, would be interested in cooking or eating healthy food, would bring money to the family.
In case of malefic influences on 2nd house vice versa would happen.,
Take another example.
If darapad falls in 4th house- spouse would primarily influence Happiness aspect of native’s life.
That influence would be positive if there are benefic parameters related to the 4th house.
In that condition, spouse would take care of house and mother nicely, would give sexual as well as emotional happiness to the native.
In case of malefic influences on 4th house vice versa would happen.
One more example;
If darapad falls in 9th house- spouse would primarily influence fortune/spiritual aspect of native’s life.
That influence would be positive if there are benefic parameters related to the 9th house.
In that condition , spouse would help in maintaining and supporting religion of the native, would bring fortune to the native, would be supportive to the native’s father.
In case of malefic influences on 9th house vice versa would happen.
THOUGH I BELIEVE THAT ARUDH CONCEPTS SHOULD NOT BE USED IN D CHARTs,APART FROM navamsa chart(as it specifically deals with spouse)….but still many astrologer do apply the concepts of Arudh in other D chart.
SO for all of you….I am also giving you the material from other sources…
Darapad in D-24(chaturvimsamsa)
This chart is seen for the learning and knowledge aspect of the native.
If the dara pad falls in 11th house in D-24;
This would mean that spouse will bring gain in the knowledge of the native through some other sources (In case of benefic influences in the 11th house.) Here some other sources means that she herself will not provide knowledge to the native but will facilitate the gain of knowledge.
If darapad falls in the 5th house of D-24 chart;
This would mean that spouse herself would be knowledgeable and will directly contribute in the knowledge of the native.(In case of benefic influences in the 11th house.)
If darapad falls in the 12th house of D-24 chart;
This would mean that spouse would prove fatal to the knowledge of the native.
Darapad in D-27 (nakshatramsa) chart;
This chart is very important to judge the role of spouse in the life of the native.
Since it talks about the strength and weakness of the native and Everyone one of us derive maximum strength from our spouse being our soul mate. Our wife becomes our “shakti” or strength in the life, If darapad falls in the 3rd house.
Lot of support will come from the spouse and the planet associated with the 3rd house will say about the kind of strength.
If darapad falls in 4th house;
Strength would be derived in terms of emotional and sexual happiness (This would fully fructify only when there is a influence of planets like moon, Venus and Jupiter on 4th house)
If darapad falls in 5th house;
Strength would be derived on a mental level or psychological support, through rational and knowledgeable thinking of the spouse.(only in case of benefic influence on 5th house)
If darapad falls in 8th house;
Strength would be derived from hidden factors or unseen factors, It would involve mysterious element (could also be occult science, mantra science)
I am writing the results for only few houses due to the limitation of time.
Please apply the rules in the same fashion for other houses.
Treat D-9(navamsa) chart as rashi chart and apply the same rules.
Only thing to remember is rashi chart results are purely on the physical plane but navamsa chart gives clue beyond the physical level.
Darapad in D-10( dasamsa ) chart.
If darapad falls in 11th house;
There would surely be gains from the spouse in the profession.
Kind of gains would be as per the characteristics of the planets influencing 11th house.(In case of benefic influences- will show that gains would be from legitimate sources)
and whether that gains would directly come to you or not will depend on the relationship of the Darapad with Arudh pad(Should be trikond,kendra,2nd,11th).
If darapad falls in 10th house;
There would be involvement of the spouse in the activities of native’s profession.
This association of the spouse in the profession would prove beneficial only when there are benefic influences on the 10th house.
If darapad falls in 6th house;
Spouse would prove obstruction in the progress of the native’s profession.
(Could be her health troubles), here malefic influences would mitigate the risks of obstruction.
Darapad in D-12( Dwadasamsa ) chart.
This chart is seen for the parents ( well being, strength and weakness).
If darapad falls in 4th house.(In case of benefic influences)
Native’s parents will derive full happiness from the spouse of the native.
If darapad falls in 1st house.(In case of benefic influences).
There would be full synchronization between the wavelengths of parents and spouse.
If darapad falls in 6th or 12th house;
It would lead to fall in the strength of the parents on account of the spouse.
Here if AL is also in (trikond or Kendra) from Darapad, both son and spouse will be responsible for that condition of the parents. The malefic effects would be reduced if some alone malefic planets influences 6th or 12th houses.(In other word combinations Like Rahu-sat , sat-mars should not be present in the name of malefic influence, Saturn alone will do or mars alone will do)
If darapad falls in 2nd or 9th house.(In case of benefic influence)
Spouse would prove as a supporting pillar to the family, fortune and religion.
Some tricky things;
If AL7 is 12th from AL – Ideally this is not a good placement.
If UL is 12th from AL – Ideally this is a good placement. (BUT DEPENDS)
(See this is because, UL is a reflection on the stability of the marriage or longevity of the marriage or attitude of the native towards the spouse or the family status of the spouse.
Now if this UL is in trikond or Kendra from AL then all the above factors would become the basis of the love between the couple.
Love and trust should be unconditional for a good relationship.
So exactly what happens when UL goes trikond or Kendra to AL?
Relationship would be based on family status of the spouse. NOT PURE LOVE
Native’s Attitude towards spouse gets influenced by the status of the spouse. NOT because of PURE LOVE
That’s why 12th UL from AL is preferred as it shows unconditional love for the marriage.
But as I have said ideally
Therefore it is also possible that though relationship was based on certain materialistic conditions but still it has lead to unconditional love later on.
Here also like to mention few other parameters.
Assume that UL and AL are in same house which is occupied by Exalted/swarashi Jupiter or exalted mercury or exalted moon etc then the quality of that planet would become base of the relationship between the couple.
For example If UL and AL are in the same house with exalted mercury in it.
It would show that the couple is attracted towards each other because of the common (“high level of Intellect and communication skills”)
Here the marriage would be fantastic.
so whatever may be the case..
In both the cases UL and 2nd from UL should have benefic influences?
Generally speaking to judge the character of the spouse.
you must simultaneously see UL,AL7,Venus( In boys chart),Jupiter(In female’s chart) in all the three charts.
That is lagan, navamsa, shatyamsa.
If UL, AL7, Venus is influenced by the malefic planets in at least 2 charts character of the spouse would be questionable.
If UL and Venus have no malefic influences (In 3 charts) but AL7 is under malefic influence in all the 3 charts or at least 2, then, though character of the spouse would be clean but in the eyes of world it would not be so.
UL and Venus (for boys) are very important.
Many a times It happens that astrologers decide the character of the native (Loyalty with the spouse) and his would be spouse, on the basis of Venus (Paap prabhav of Saturn, moon, Rahu and mars on it) in his chart.
Here I would like to say that even if Venus has influence of mars, moon, Saturn, Rahu in lagan and navamsa chart, the final word should be made as per Upa pad lagan (and its lord), AL7( and its lord).
If the UL,AL(and their lords) in 3 charts(D-1,D-9,D-60) are in strength with the strong influence of Jupiter on it.
Character of native and his spouse would be OK, even after the malefic influence on Venus.
Yes this paap prabhav on Venus will definitely make the person romantic, passionate for sex and artistic.
Upa pad has to say about the loyalty and attitude of the native towards spouse.
Both loyalty and attitude of the native cannot be OK, if the character is bad.
Upa pad also has to say about the character of the spouse.
so even if Venus has some malefic influences , final word would be of UL.
Hence UL will finally decide the character of the native and his spouse.
Few other conditions are also possible.
If UL has all shubh aspects in lagan chart and all bad aspects in navamsa chart.
Character of the native would be fine but the character of the spouse would be questionable.
If UL has all the shubh aspects in D-1 and D-9 charts and the case is reverse in shatyamsa chart…..Then D-60 would prevail.
Mixed planets would give the mixed results.
Rahu’s role is very important.
1) Strong influence of Rahu on UL, AL7, 7th house [ IN D-1,D-9,D-60]
2) Venus domination in the above conditions also gives outcaste marriages.
3) Few yogs are very evident in the charts of the natives with outcaste’s marriages.
Like (Venus, mars), (Venus, Rahu),( Venus ,Sat),(Jupiter, Rahu)….These yogs can also lead to successful marriages.
Yogs for Outcaste and unsuccessful marriages;
(Rahu- Saturn), (Saturn, mars), (mars Rahu)
