Raja Yoga for Dhanus indriya-lagna

Guru + Budha-Dhanus indriya-lagna

QUOTATION ~~ BPHS, sarga-40, sl. 13

An exchange of Rashi between Karma's Lord and Lagna's Lord will make the native associated with the king in a great manner.

QUOTATION ~~ BPHS, sarga-5, sl. 41

If the lord of the Lagna and the 10th exchange houses with each other then they form a Raja Yoga. They will confer high position, reputation and power.

Special Yoga for Dhanus indriya-lagna

• 31. Sreenatha Yoga

• [uchcha-Budha] + Dharmesha-9 in karma-bhava for Dhanus indriya-lagna only]

QUOTATION from B.V. Raman, Three Hundred Important Combinations(10th ed., delhi, 1991)

" Definition:

If the exalted lord of the 7th occupies the 10th

AND the lord of the I0th is with the 9th lord,

• Sreenatha Yoga is caused.

Results:

the native will have on his body the insignia of Vishnu, viz., the conch, the wheel, etc., be an agreeable speaker, godly, have a good wife and children and be loved by all.

Remarks:

Sreenatha Yoga may be said to be one of the important Raja Yoga, inasmuch as a point of contact is established between the 7th, 9th and 10th houses.

It is held to give rise to power as well as wealth . The lord of the 7th should be invariably exalted in the 10th, the lord of which, in turn, must be with the 9th lord.

Obviously Sreenatha Yoga can occur only in respect of Sagittarius in which case Mercury, lord of the 7th, could remain exalted in the 10th.

• For no other Lagna can the 7th lord remain exalted in the 10th.

Since the original writers have laid emphasis on the fact that the 7th lord should be in the 10th exalted, we have to conclude that the Yoga is a rare one and that it cannot arise with regard to any other sign of the zodiac than Sagittarius ..."

Marriage challenges

Dhanus in lagna or Chandra lagna faces a special set of marriage challenges.

• kalatrakaraka Shukra+ yuvati-pati-7 Budha = both enemies of lagnesha Guru.

Shukra

• the partnership suffers from addictions or other impoverishing behavior of excessive sweet as well as argumentative and jealous

• However, the partner is also materially gainful and has a large social network of Feminine Nativities and those earning in the market for luxury products

• the partner is often involved in impoverishing (6) financial [Shukra] activities such as loan-taking (credit cards or inflated-interest mortgages for example). Also the partner may have addictions (Shukra + 6) and sugar-related health problems.

• and the partner may (seem to) invest a good deal of value [Shukra] in forming social network relationship focused on earnings such as "network marketing"and other methods which involve a predominance of beauty items and women.

• It depends upon Shukra's character placement whether the earnings from 11 outweigh the expenses of 6. As a rule there is considerable "motion without progress" when Shukra = both rogesha-6 and vriddhi-pati-11 , as gains are quickly spent for medicines or luxuries [Shukra] and the earnings cycle starts from zero again.

• rogesha-6 Shukra's problematic argumentiveness = reinforced by Guru's negative relationship to natural rogesha-6 Budha (below).

Guru-Budha animosity = contempt or patronizing attitudes in marriage

• Lagnesha (self) Guru tends to look down on Budha as a minor player, adolescent in behavior, restricted in view due to immaturity and excessive mentalization, not capable of wisdom-knowledge. Budha is seen by Guru as impressionable, short-attention-span, calculating but not comprehending, overly sexualized, frivolously chatty, and often quite annoying.

• This dynamic can play out in marriage when the Guru-ruled native bonds with a Budha-ized spouse whose philosophical scope of awareness is rather limited and busy with superficial details [Budha]. spouse characteristically has more interest in repetitive and commercial communications, which may annoy the broad-thinking, religiously comprehensive Guru identified Dhanus native.

Stoic Shani activates-2 from Dhanus = lagna for Second marriage = Makara

Shani = mutually neutral toward Guru

the second marriage partner is noticeably more pragmatic and mature

second marriage tends to be easier, albeit the overall signification of Shukra as karaka for partnership remains somewhat problematic regarding illness, disagreement, or addiction of the partner (6) and luxury orientation in the marketplace (11)
