Result
of Planets in 12 Houses
There
are twelve signs in the natural Zodiac and 12 houses in
the horoscope. All affairs of human life are
divided into 12 classes and each class of affair is in
the domain of one or the other house of the chart.
Out of the 12 houses the
first house or the lagna is the most important of them
all. Being the first house all the subsequent houses
stand in relation to it. Every thing depends upon the
strength or otherwise of this house.
Lal Kitab states that the
house is the house of struggle between Maya and Jiva or
the soul and matter. In other words it is the house of
struggle to get liberation from the shakles of Maya. It
is the throne of the ruler. The achievements or failures
of the native depend largely upon this house. In Lal
Kitab this house also stands for education, intelligence
and longevity. Mars is the ruler of the house. Sun is
the natural significator. In fact Sun represents the
human soul and vitality in the physical body.

House
No. 1
Out of the 12 houses

houses stand in relation to it. Every thing depends

house of struggle to get liberation from the shakles

In Lal Kitab this house
also stands for education, intelligence and longevity.
Mars is the ruler of the house. Sun is the natural
significator. In fact Sun represents the human soul
and vitality in the physical body.
Planet posited in house
No. 1 aspects the planets in house No. 7 and unburdens
itself to some extent provided the house No. 7 is
occupied and not vacant. If this house is vacant the
planets in house No. 1 become inert. This is also true
if the lagna is not occupied. The lagna house becomes
inactive or weak. This house has a relationship with
house No. 11. If the latter is unoccupied the planet in
lagna gives good results. If there are a two or more
planet in lagna Venus becomes the judge to decide about
the nature of results. In other words Venus gets
importance if there are two or more planets in the lagna.
Incidentally, house No. 2 is the Dharmasthana or the
place of worship. Venus is its ruler. It is but natural
that our own deeds or misdeeds come to play their part
in the struggle for liberation.
House
No. 2
House No. 2 stands is the
Dharmasthana or the place of worship. It also has the
portfolios of wealth, education, honour and mind. This
is the house that stands for the fruits of the karmas or
the deeds and misdeeds of the native. Here is the seat
of Jupiter the jagat Guru or the preceptor of the world
at large.
House No. 9 is considered
to be the ocean of Karmas. It is from house No. 9 that
the winds laden with water of the Karmas rise and pour
it on house No. 2. For good results of House No. 2 the
house No. 8 should be vacant or unoccupied. The results
are likely to be better if house No. 2 is also vacant.
This may appear strange but every thing becomes clear if
we go by the assumptions of Lal Kitab. Planets in house
No. 2 are aspected by the planets in house 2 aspect the
planets in house No. 6. If houses 2, 6 and 8 are all
occupied the poison of house No. 8 shall be transferred
to house No. 6 through the agency of the aspect of the
planets in house No. 2. If houses 2 and 8 are both
vacant there is no question of compounding the troubles
of 6th house.
House No. 2 gets its
strength from house No. 4. Wherever there is a severe
onslaught of misfortunes from house No. 9 due to the
weakness of Dharmasthana or the Jagatguru or Venus,
house No. 4, comes to rescue. In times of adversities we
should look towards the strength of 4th house, its lord
the natural significator or Karaka Moon who stands for
mother as well as mortality and mind. Perhaps mother's
blessings may help the native tide over his/her
difficulties.
House
No. 3
Lal Kitab refers to house
No. 3 as the times of exit from this world and the
gateway of exit. In other words we come to know about
the time of death and its causes. As illness is one of
the routine ways of exit we have to judge the illness
and diseases from this house. This is an inauspicious
and malefic house that way. Malefic in Dusthanas or
inauspicious houses are normally considered to be a good
placement.
According to Lal Kitab
are placements of sinners meaning Rahu and Ketu in house
No. 3 is horrible. It is said that even if they are not
able to bring about the end itself they shall be
competent to bring about death-like position. This may
happen when house 3 is occupied by Rahu or Ketu and
houses 6 and/or 8 by malefic. In adversities this house
gets strength from 12th house even though the planets in
12th house are enemies of the planets in the 3rd house.
In a hypothetical case let us assume that Ketu occupies
house No. 3 and Mars is posited in house No. 12. Mars is
an enemy of Ketu but in emergencies Mars will always
help Ketu despite his enmity. Ketu shall have no ill
effects upon the native. Likewise Jupiter in the 3rd
house and Mercury his enemy, in 12th house will not be
able to cause any harm.
On the other hand there
will be all round happiness and prosperity. If the
houses are occupied by two or more planets we have to
assess the harm, in any, in respect of each planet and
then draw our final conclusions. Rahu and Venus in 12th
house normally being about the death of the partner -
wife or husband - in 24/25th year of the native. If
Saturn occupies the 3rd house simultaneously Rahu will
not be able to play his mischief. Saturn will help
Venus.
Mercury is the lord of
3rd house, Mars its natural Significator and Rahu shall
have the dignity of exaltation.
House
No. 4
House No. 4 is the period
of childhood and the prenatal period. It also covers the
old age. Moon is the lord and natural significator of
the house. It is a well-known assumption that Moon is
strong by night. Similar is the position of planets in
this house. They are strong by the night and also when
there is some trouble. Jupiter gets exalted here. No
planet gives bad effects to the affairs of this house if
Moon does not occupy and of the house No. 1, 4, 7 or 10.
Even the rank malefic like Rahu and Ketu become benefic
for this house is Moon does not occupy any of the
quandrangular houses. The bad effects of planets in
house No. 4 are transferred to the affairs of the house
occupied by Saturn.
For the pre-natal period
if any if Jupiter, Sun, Mars or Mercury are in 4th house
and child will be safe and healthy in mother's womb
before birth and even Rahu or Ketu would not be able to
spoil that.
House
No. 5
House No. 5 is the house
of progeny and the future of the native. How shall the
native fare in the world can be known from his house No.
5. About the welfare of children also we have to judge
the same house. So long as Jupiter is in good position
there shall be peace and prosperity. This means that
Jupiter should be benefic by his placement and position
in the annual progressed charts. If houses 6 and/or 10
are afflicted the articles connected with the planet
inimical to the planet in 5th house should be kept under
ground in the house. If house No. 8 is also afflicted
the article should be kept under ground in the ancestral
house.
In case house No. 5 is
occupied by Rahu and Saturn, Venus in 11th house, Ketu
in 8th and Jupiter in the 10th house there shall be
illness initially to the partner and thereafter the son
is likely to suffer. For this malady loaves of bread or
flour of the weight of the son should be given to dogs
for 25 to 48 days. If house 4 or 4 or 9 is afflicted the
planet in house 5 shall give bad results. The planets in
houses 6 or 10 will also give bad results without any
regard whether they are friends or foes of the planet in
house No. 5. Rahu and Ketu will influence results
according to their placement in the chart.
Sun is the lord of this
house. Jupiter is the Karaka graha or the natural
significator planet for the house.
House
No. 6
House No. 6 is known as
the hidden world, treasure house of mercy and
providential help. House No. 6 is ruled by Mercury and
hence the planet in house No. 6 is likely to afflict the
results of house occupied by Mercury, Ketu or Venus.
House No. 6 is inspected by the planets in house No. 2
and the house No. 8 through house No. 2. In such a case
if Mercury or Rahu happen to be posited in house 6 there
would be no bad effects of the malefic on the house
because it is the house of exaltation for both of them.
Ketu is the natural significator of the affairs of the
house.
It has been said above
the houses 2, 6 and 8 are mutually inter-connected with
each other. While attempting and modification in any of
the houses including the 6th house we have to keep in
view all the three houses. If house No. 6 is unoccupied
there shall be no transfer of the afflictions of 8th and
2nd houses. There shall also be no aspect from 6th house
to 12th house. The obvious result would be that the
planets in 2nd and 12th houses will get extra strength.
To avail of this opportunity is houses 2 and 3 are
occupied by benefics it would always be helpful to
awaken house No. 6. This is possible by serving the
maternal uncles (helping them) or serving the daughters
of the daughter. Except Sun, Jupiter and Moon all the
other planets in 6th house would be offering their own
results. Mercury and Ketu will not offer good results
till the age of the planet in house 6 or 8. The question
of the ages of planets will be dealt with at its proper
place.
Although the planets in
house No. 6 are aspected by the planets in house No. 2
but the position would be reversed in the case of Saturn
who will aspect house No. 2 from 6th house.
House
No. 7
House
No. 7 is known for the family affairs, where the
native has to struggle hard for fulfilling his material
wants of bread, clothing the housing etc. It has been
apply described by Lal Kitab in the following
words.
The native gets ground
between the earth and the sky for food . Here Akaash,
Zameen, Rizque and Akal have been used metaphorically
for Venus and Mercury because both these planets are the
natural significators and Venus is also the lord of the
house. The native sweats himself out in search of his
food and clothing etc. Sun, Moon and Rahu offer the
results according to the placement and position of
Venus. Bad results due to the position of Venus cannot
be improved or mitigated by remedies. In other words
these results shall come to pass and the remedies will
all go waste. Mercury, Saturn and Ketu shall give their
results at various periods. If these results are bad we
may try some remedial measures and they shall be set
right or improved.
Normally the male
planets affect the male relations and the female planets
on affliction affect the female ones. In house 7 if the
planets are more than two in number only the male
relatives are affected. Sun, Mars and Jupiter are the
male planets. Moon and Venus are females.
House
No. 8
House
No. 8 deals with death and justice.
Here justice means eye for eye and tooth for tooth. In
other words the justice is on the basis of tit for tat.
It is the joint seat of
Mars and Saturn. Both are the natural significators of
the house if Sun, Moon and Jupiter singly or jointly
occupy this house the bad effects remain limited to
house No. 8 and its affairs. Saturn, Moon or Mars
occupying this house singly give only good fruits.
Saturn, Moon or Mars occupying this house singly give
only good fruits. If, however, any two or all the three
together join in this house they give bad results.
Saturn will give deaths after deaths. Moon shall affect
the health of the persons.
Mars and Mercury
occupying the house jointly give good results only if
Saturn occupies house No. 2. In such a case Mars shall
be malefic or the negative Mars. House No. 8 has its
influence on house 6. If any of these houses is
afflicted the results will be bad for both the houses.
In such cases the planets in 12th house should also be
judged. The planets may be friendly or inimical the
planets in 12th house shall influence the results. Moon
is the most powerful planet for the affairs of 8th
house. Moon by strength of his placement and position
can undo the ill of 12th house also. The cause of the
malefic nature of 8th house will be house No. 4 through
house No. 2. In other words the houses 2, 4 and 8 should
be judged simultaneously. The planets in house 8, if
inimical to planets in 2nd house and 11th will strike at
the most vulnerable point.
House
No. 9
House
No. 9 is known as the commencement of
luck. Lucky period of the native shall start, good
or bad, when the planet in this house becomes effective.
The house is considered to be a great ocean. In case the
house is inert, it can be activised through house No. 2
if the other two houses namely the houses 3 and 5 are
unoccupied. Any of the planets who has been dormant till
he transits house No. 9 and becomes active he will give
results at his own age till his period is completed.
Every planet has been assigned a particular period of
age. By way of illustration, if Jupiter is in house 2
and transits the house in the progressed chart he will
give results at the age of 16 and continue to do so till
16 years. Planets in house No. 5 aspect the planets in
house 9. If Sun or Moon occupy house 9 there will be no
bad effects of even Rahu and Ketu. House No. 9 is the
seat of Jupiter.
House
No. 10
House
No. 10 is treated as the ground for the
foundation of luck. The planet transiting the house,
according to the progressed chart, becomes a doubtful
planet. This is to say that nobody can be sure about the
nature of results to be given by the planet. The planet
in 9 at the time of his transiting house 10 will give
bad results even though the planets in house 6 & 5
are the friends. The nature of results would depend upon
the nature of houses 8 and 2. The results will be bad if
house 8 is afflicted and good if house 2 is in good
shape. If house No. 10 is occupied by inimical planets
their results shall be unpredictable An idea of the
nature of results can be formed from the position and
placement of Moon. If Moon is benefic good results shall
be obtained. In case house 10 is unoccupied the planets
in house No. 4 will not be able to give good results.
Saturn is the natural significator of the house.
House
No. 11
House
No. 11 indicates all about the native's
status and condition. Personal income and earnings
of the native and his relation with the world at large
can be judged from this house. The results of Rahu and
Ketu, if occupying the house, can be judged and they
will be good normally if house No. 3 is vacant. They
will however, give bad results in house No. 8.
Ketu in house No. 11
would nullify the good effects of Moon and if Rahu
occupies the house Jupiter's good results would be
spoilt. Vice versa in each case would also be true.
Lal Kitab has given great
importance to this house and planets in it. Even Rahu
and Ketu give good results. If Rahu is a benefic the
native shall not accept a single penny from his parents
and whatever he gets will be lost to him due to one
reason or the other; but all that he earns by the sweat
of his own brow will be with and give him pleasure.
House
No. 12
House
No. 12 is the place of final rest
according to the deeds or misdeeds of the native.
House 10 reflects the physical valour etc. of the native
but 12th deals with the character etc. If houses 2, 6
and 8 are occupied the native has good character. If
houses 2 and 8 are occupied and there is no planet
inimical to planet in 8th house the person shall command
a keen intellect of very high order. If the life span is
divided into 4 compartments we can judge how the native
shall fare by the houses 1 to 3, 4, to 6, 7 to 9 and 10
to 12 in each part of his life respectively. Planet in
No. 11, its position and placement shall give a glimpse
of worldly status of the native. This can be modified by
the condition of house No. 12. For improvement of the
position of 12th house we look to house No. 1 and its
planets. In other words, we can improve and get better
results in house No. 12 if we can somehow improve the
position of planets in lagna. If lagna is vacant we
should go to house No. 2 for improvement.
