Whenever Rahu-Ketu axis is placed exactly over or close to the most effective points of houses containing odd signs, besides afflicting the houses occupied and aspected it turns the planets Saturn, the Sun, Venus, Mars and Jupiter weak by afflicting their mooltrikona houses.

Whenever Rahu-Ketu axis is placed exactly over or close to the most effective points of houses containing even signs, besides afflicting the houses occupied and aspected it turns the planets the Moon and Mercury weak by afflicting their mooltrikona houses.

The close influence of the lord of the eighth house or Rahu or the lord of the twelfth house on the lord of the seventh house, and/or the most effective point of the seventh house and/or Venus and the close influence of Rahu on the lord of the eighth house gives indulgence out of marital bond for excessive sensual pleasures and endangers the native with sexually transmitted diseases.

The close affliction of the nodes to weak planets makes one vulnerable to cancerous diseases. Ever since the author, V.K.Choudhry identified this planetary configuration giving cancerous results in the year 1989, our team had been very particular in watching the horoscopes with such planetary configuration for administering preventive astral remedies and we are very proud to say that in cases where the native had not started suffering from such a fatal disease, the preventive astral remedies proved to be of great help and the natives suspected for cancerous disease did not suffer in the sub-periods of such afflicting/afflicted planets.

Whenever the affliction is close to the extent of one degree, the problems surface in the first operating planetary period. When the affliction is close to the extent of two degrees, the problem may surface in the second operating planetary period. The affliction, with the longitudinal difference of three degrees or more gives problems in the third operating planetary period. Similarly, we should treat the afflictions of longitudinal difference of four and five degrees. This varies with the strength of the primary determinants. If the primary determinants are weak, it hastens the surfacing of problem.

A planet placed in the mooltrikona sign cannot exceed the strength of its dispositor.

During the sub period of a planet the results of planets placed in its mooltrikona sign also fructify simultaneously.

Prediction of unfavorable results can be/is made for the significations ruled by the weak planets even if there are no afflictions in the natal chart and no planet is badly placed.

A strong planet will give beneficial results of its general and particular significations throughout the life. If it is away from the MEP of the house of its placement, it may give results for the significations of the said house in the later part of life.

A FM planet does not afflict its own MT sign by conjunction or by aspect. A FM planet will afflict its own MT sign by aspect only if it itself is afflicted by another FM planet. Dispositor weakness or bad placement affliction is not applicable in this case. The benefit of aspect to the MT sign of FM is limited to the proportion of the strength of the FM.

III House also rules learning and comprehension.

The placement of the tenth lord in the second house gives professional eduction.

The strength of Sun or the Sun like house Planets improve the results of other planets to some extent.

In DCs we see the influence of FMs of DCs.

The strong affliction of MMP to the significators of longevity, the placement of planets in the 8th house with Moon being afflicted cause short life span.

Close afflictions to MEP of the houses harm the main significations of the house.

The strong planets give results without any efforts while the weak planets need more efforts with little/delayed success.

Give due consideration to placement of the planets. The planets placed in the third house take the person to MBA / marketing like studies. The strong planets bring brilliance coupled with stability. The weak planets show their impact through instability.

BLACK MAGIC: Impact of nodes on fifth house, weak Mercury / Moon makes one vulnerable to black magic. The MT sign lords of the eighth and twelfth houses also act as Rahu.

The karma results arise through the principles of divine justice. Jyotish/Astral remedies are the means for alleviating the karma results.

The important tools for predictive accuracy are the functional nature of planets, strength of planets, inter-relationships of planets, divisional charts, impact of Rahu & Ketu, planetary periods and triple transit triggers.

For differentiating between
- having issues in a particular area throughout life
- enjoying good results in a particular area but in some sub-periods facing issues and drawbacks

the guiding principles are that the planets give results as per their strength in their sub periods. Transit influences take precedence over sub period results. The strong/exact afflictions to natal planets are not easy things to be dealt with. Longtime propitiation with strengthening of afflicted planets help. Some other strong planets in the birth chart help in bringing down the impact of strong afflictions. The strong planets, in general, give good results for their significations throughout the life. Where there are no strong or well placed planets, there is little hope of things turning good.

Caution: Astrologers do not have a television set and cannot give running commentary.  The best thing is in the shortest possible time, indicate the strong and weak areas in chart and prescribe appropriate remedies.  One acquires credentials or good reputation as an astrologer with one's competence over a period of time.
