Bisaria,
From an article published in Journal of Astrology,
Jan-Mar 2008
Astrological indicators do benefit. A 29 year old came to me
for predictions in June, 2007. He first asked me about his career,
the usual concern expected from this age group. Then during
the course of the conversation he told me that his family is
keen on getting him married, and they are looking for a bride
for him. This emerged as the prime reason for his meeting with
me. He wanted my advice on this important matter. I advised
him to get married after September 2008 and told him that the
reason why he should delay getting married was because the period
till then did not appear peaceful.
He came to me again in November 2007 and informed me that soon
after he met me five months ago, he got engaged to an air hostess.
The girl was his choice and the match was approved by the families.
The engagement ceremony was performed. It was a joyous occasion
and he was happy. But this happiness was short lived. What followed
was a spate of misunderstandings, disputes and disappointments.
The engagement broke up and he was sad. The prediction given
by me kept his hopes alive. He had become a staunch believer
in astrology and was looking forward to September 2008.


Natal Chart
The Promise
The lagna lord Venus is the 12th house with exalted and vargottama
4th lord Sun. Venus, in the navamsha is in the 2nd house, in
its mulatrikona rashi, Libra, but in the Rahu-Ketu axis and
aspected by debilitated Saturn from the 8th house.
There is no aspect on the lagna in the birth horoscope, except
for that of a weak Saturn from the 4th house. Thus, it can be
concluded that there are no major afflictions to the lagna or
the lagna lord, but the lagna lords position in the 12th house
and its affliction in the navamsha show a weakness. The lagna
is an important house for analysis of marriage matters as it
happens to be 7th from the 7th (bhavat bhavam principle) and
Venus, the lagna lord, is the significator of marriage. The
2nd house is also important for marriage matters as it is the
Kutumbh Bhava (family). Marriage brings in changes
in the family and therefore this house has been found activated
many times during marriage through dashas and transits. The
2nd house has Jupiter-Moon forming a gajakesari yoga, which
is good, though the lordships of Jupiter is of the 11th and
8th, and that of the Moon, the 3rd, both malefic.

Navamsha Chart (D9)
The 2nd lord, Mercury, is debilitated in the 11th house and
is conjunct with Ketu. It goes to the 6th house in the navamsha
indicating a serious weakness in the Kutumbh (family). Therefore
only adverse results can be expected in the dasha of Mercury-Ketu
with regard to family. The 4th, which is the house to be seen
for happiness (sukh) and home is also an important house for
marriage. It is in papakatari yoga, as Rahu is in the 5th and
debilitated Mars is in the 3rd. It is further afflicted by placement
of Saturn there, which gets debilitated in the 8th house in
the navamsha, and is with Rahu there. 4th lord, though exalted
and vargottama, is in the 12th, the house of loss.
The 7th house, the most important house for marriage, is not
aspected by any planet. Its lord, Mars, debilitated in the 3rd
house is a serious weakness. The 8th house, another house to
be seen for marriage, is well disposed with its lord Jupiter
aspecting it.
In the navamsha the 7th lord Jupiter is well placed in the 4th
house, which is a favorable disposition. But Rahu, Saturn, and
Sun are in the 8th house of navamsha and Mars is in the lagna
which is not good.
From the Moon, Jupiter the 7th lord is with the Moon and aspects
the 7th, which is its own house. This is a favorable disposition.
The 4th house has Rahu, so the 4th house from both the lagna
and the Moon are weak.
In Jaimini, the darakaraka is Saturn, in the 4th house and the
dasha was of Capricorn-Sagittarius, from April 15, 2007-Sept
15, 2007. The 7th from Capricorn has the debilitated Mars and
Sagittarius, the eventful rashi, is in the 8th house of the
birth horoscope. So only adverse results could be got during
this time. In the varshapal chart the 7th lord, mars is in the
Rahu-Ketu axis and the lagna lord, Venus, is in the 8th, further
indicating problems.
Dasha and Transit
The transit of Saturn in Leo, under Rahu-Ketu axis in transit,
is unfavorable and indicative of problems. The dasha of 2nd
lord Mercury-Ketu had to be unfavorable for the family, represented
by the 2nd house, as it is debilitated in Rahu-Ketu axis and
is in the 6th house of navamsha.
The Prediction
Overall, though there is a promise of marriage because there
are favorable configurations, the dasha and transit was not
favorable enough to translate them into marriage when he came
for the prediction. The dashas of Mer-Mer-Saturn and Mer-Ketu
were sure to give adverse results of the 2nd house. This is
because Mercury is debilitated and afflicted by Ketu in the
11th house, which is 6th from the 6th, a house of disputes.
The dasha of Mer-Mer-Saturn and transits were so bad as to give
adverse results like break in engagement and related problems.
With Saturn in the 4th house, under papakartari yoga and its
debilitation in the 8th house in the navamsha on the Rahu-Ketu
axis a Saturn sub dasha had to be bad.
He lost his father in the dasha of Mer-Mer-Venus. Venus is the
2nd and 7th lord from the Sun, both in the natal chart and the
dwadasamsha (D12). Mercury is in the 2nd from the 9th house
of D12 and is 7th lord from the 9th house. This is a combination
for father's death already published as a collective research
paper in Journal of Astrology.

Dwadasamsha Chart (D12)
Based on the overall positioning of planets, his Mercury-Venus
dasha would be good and there is a strong possibility of marriage
as Venus is the significator of marriage and is the lagna lord
and Mercury is the 2nd lord.
