EXAMPLE

• indriya = Mithuna

• janma rashi = Chandra-Mithuna

[Mithuna-Dvamdva] specializes in the interactive, communicative coupling of polarities and opposites.

• If the rising nakshatra is Kuja-ruled Mrigashiras - Invaka pada-3 or pada-4, one suspects the friends of being enemies and finds enemies to be more trustworthy than friends.

• If Rahu-ruled Arudra - Betelgeuse marks the rising nakshatra, the sensual body does the explaining via messages of fascinating, passionate movement. Often communicates wild, stormy energy.

• Guru-ruled Punarvasu-Aditya pada 1-2-3 may produce a wise and charitable teacher who shows that life includes death and good includes evil.

QUOTATION from Tenzing Gyatso from How to Practice: The Way to a Meaningful Life, by His Holiness the Dalai Lama, translated by Jeffrey Hopkins, p.133

" If you cannot stop worrying over something in the past or what might happen in the future, shift your focus to the inhalation and exhalation of your breath.

Or recite this mantra: om mani padme hum (pronounced "om mani padmay hum" ).

Since the mind cannot concentrate on two things simultaneously , either of these meditations causes the former worry to fade."

• Hira = diamond Shukra-ratna supports creative political intelligence vidya-pati-5 + meditative, prayerful spiritual guidance via Shukra ruler-of-12

• Nilamani Shani-ratna blue sapphire supports confidential information gained via randhresha-8 + wise world-traveling = Shani Dharmesha-9

1. Surya ratna = no, because Surya = bhratru-pati-3 and does not rules any other good house

2. Chandra ratna = no, because Chandra = dhanapati-2 and does not rules any other good house

3. Mangala ratna = no-no-no, because Mangala = rogesha-6 and vriddhi-pati-11

4. Budha ratna = yes! because Budha = the auspicious lagnesha and bandesha-4. Promotes vitality and commerce of all varieties, particularly in matters of real-estate, housing, pathways of transportation, vehicles, and foundational schooling.

6. Shukra ratna = yes, because bhagya Shukra = vidya-pati-5 and ruler-of-12

7. Shani ratna = yes, because bhagya Shani = randhresha-8 and Dharmesha-9 . General a graha will provide stronger results for its mūlatrikoṇa rashi [Kumbha]. However, prescriptive caution is warranted if there is activity in bhava-8.

8. Rahu-ratna = unknown. Prescription depends on Rahu's ruler

9. Ketu-ratna = unknown. Prescription depends on Ketu's ruler

There are exceptions to all of these general rules which are caused by the position of Chandra, the active Vimshottari time lords, and one's personal goals, inter alia.

• medical professionals such as physician, naurse, med-tech, pharmacist

• conflict-management professions such as attorneys, military officers

• human service ministries such as psychological counselor, pastor, social worker

Leadership Capacity and Style

Career - Vocation additional required assessments

• yuvati-pati-7 + karmesha -10 from Chandra Lagna

• 10th navamsha and its lord within the radix

• Guru the Guide = karmesha -10

• Generous Guru = yuvati-pati-7

A fortunate combination for organizational leadership (10) and peer-advising collegial relationships (7) -- provided that Guru is well-disposed.

Mithuna nativities generally enjoy successful material careers in all departments of the productive economy.

Mithuna specialize in guidance activities, which range from religious preaching to philosophical publishing to travel guide to law-school professor, as well as dozens of teacher-preacher-adviser-counselor roles in other humanistic content areas.

Guru provides both leadership-guidance (10) and counseling-guidance (7). Frequently Mithuna works for a large [Guru] humanistic organization, often taking the role of the scholar-administrator .

Guru loves wisdom-seekers and wisdom-providers such as teachers, travelers, and truth (9) .

Guru also loves the sanctuary enclosures (12) such as hospitals, meditation halls, dormitories, and counseling rooms where spiritual guidance occurs. Mithuna nativities Therefore, adrawn to Guru-ist vocations

• professional educators

• the education industry = teachers and academic advisers

• divinity: teaching, preaching, pastoral counseling

• law: consulting attorneys, law professors, managing partners

• medicine: consulting physician, philosophy of medicine, psychologist-psychiatrist

Mithuna-lagna is blessed with broad-minded and compassionate [Guru] peer-advisers and colleagues (7).

Mithuna nativities = the spouse-partner (7) is likely to share the same Guru-oriented profession (10).

Health for Mithuna lagna

rogesha-6 = Kuja

Mithuna lagna is more likely to have health problems = consequences of repressed anger or a psychology of excessive self-control.

rogesha-6 +Vriddhi-pati-11 = friends become enemies and also enemies may become friends. The native earns via direct intervention [Mangala] into situations rife with conflict, debt, and disease.

The physical manifestations of illness are somewhat mysterious due to Ari Bhava = Vṛścika.

Mithuna nativities tend toward the expression of the secret, unspeakable anger that articulate, conversational Mithuna rarely feels permitted to express during day-to-day business transactions.

Look to Kuja's bhava for the relationship and the location which show the key to the origin of the ailment.

The origin of Mithuna 's ailment = usually angry frustration with"psychic attack" .

• Some variety of psycho-emotional aggression has produced a pattern of attempted take-over of the native by the siblings [Mangala], male peers [Mangala], possibly co-workers = especially males = or even indirectly one may feel attacked by economic forces of the marketplace (11) .

rogesha-6 = the contract-dissolver. In contractual relationships, during the period of rogesha-6 , the native will struggle with impulsiveness and a tendency to break promises (6).

• If other factors suggest impending dissolution of marriage, mangala bhukti may signal legal divorce. rogesha-6 Kuja in bhava-1, bhava-4, or bhava-12 is very challenging for marriage.

• Shani in 6 for Mithuna lagna = native wants to get out of a frustrating marriage, but cannot due to responsibilities or fear of censure.

More than any other lagna, mithuna's health problems are resolved effectively through surgery.

If rogesha-6 Kuja also occupies the Mithuna kundali indriya-lagna ,

• the native 's life = fraught with adversarial conflict.

• The individual is exceptionally competitive to the point of chronic, often destructive, aggressiveness.

• The animosity affects The earthen body when rogesha-6 occupies the janma lagna. Kuja in Mithuna lagna may encourage the native to undertake a career in dispute management, particularly a career the involves large-scale economic activity since Kuja = Vriddhi-pati-11 while Guru as karmesha -10 tends to grant a large scope to career influence upon the society.

• If the randhresha-8 +dharmesha -9 Shani is involved with Kuja (yuti or drishti or parivartamsha) the aggression can be channeled into a university career but most like the earnings Mangala vriddhi-pati-11 are obtained via a secret Shani randhresha-8 structure.
