Some important Principles of Astrology- By yenbeeyes

Written on 21.12.2008
(Published in the Astrovision eMagazine of Jan., 2009 issuue)
I learnt astrology from my maternal grandfather who was a great scholar and lived
during 1893 to 1976. With him he had large collection of manuscripts and some very
old publications. Some of the books and the manuscripts have no title and many
pages are also missing. Majority of them are in Tamil or Malayalam. Though he
taught me many intricacies of the vedanga subject, he never gave me the books to
read and never explained anything about them. After his demise, I tried to
reconstruct them and while doing so, I came across some principles by which we can
give accurate predictions. In the following pages, I present a compilation of some of
the important principles of Astrology which may be useful for the students of
Astrology.
1. If any planet is the lord of trine or quadrant and also of the 6th, 8th or 12th
house, it is considered to be a benefic planet.
2. If any planet is not lord of trine or quadrant and if it is the lord of the 6th, 8th
or the 12th house, it is considered to be a malefic planet.
3. If a lord of trine or of quadrant is in the 6th, 8th or 12th house, it is considered
weak. So it does not give powerful benefic results to its own houses or to its
significating houses. But it destroys the malefic results of the houses in which
it is situated or aspects the malefic houses. An example will clarify this rule:
Example: In any birth chart if the lord of 9th house is in the 6th house, the
native does not get powerful benefic results of the 9th house; but he gets the
powerful benefic result of the 6th house and the 12th house also. But if this
planet is related to another benefic planet by conjunction, opposition
(placement in the 7th house) or aspect, the planet which is in the 6th house
gives powerful benefic results to its own houses and its significating houses
also, due to cancellation of weak combination.
4. If malefic planet is situated in one’s 9th house, then it gives powerful malefic
results connected to the 9th house. In the same way by opposition or aspect,
it also gives powerful malefic results.
5. In the same way if the malefic planet situated in the 9th house, but Mars
acting as lord of trine or quadrant aspects the malefic planet by the 4th or 8th
aspect, then Mars does not allow the malefic planet to create any malefic
effect because Mars is the sole controller of this malefic planet. But if this
Mars is in conjunction or opposition with the malefic planet, then Mars has no

control over it. So the malefic planet would create malefic results in its time
and Mars would give benefic result to the native in his time.
6. In the same way if Mars is in the 9th house and the malefic planet occupying
the 3rd house aspects Mars and the 9th house then the native would obtain
malefic result connecting fortune, because it aspects the 9th house and Mars.
7. Opposite to this if the malefic planet is situated in the 9th house, and if Mars
occupying the 3rd house aspects it, then the native would experience malefic
result of the 9th house. But this result would be ordinary, because according to
the principles of Astrology the effect of the planet aspecting the houses are
considered to be powerful. In the same way the aspect of Mars destroys the
malefic effect of the 9th house, but he has no complete control, as the malefic
planet is aspecting Mars too. There are great ups and downs in the life of such
natives. Sometimes he sleeps on the bed of roses and sometimes on the
floor!
8. In any birth chart if malefic planet comes in conjunction, opposition or aspect
with particular houses, then the malefic planet destroys the benefic result of
the same particular house and also destroys the benefic result of the house,
whose lord or the significator is related through conjunction, opposition or
aspect to the same malefic planet. For instance, if any malefic planet who is
the lord of the 8th house and if it is situated in the 10th house, the result of the
8th house improves, whereas it destroys the benefic results of the 10th house
and it also destroys the benefic results of the related houses with the planets
and of the houses.
9. The natural friendship of the planets plays an essential part in giving the
results. The Sun, Moon, Mars are the friends of Jupiter. Now the malefic Moon
is the lord of 8th house for Sagittarius Lagna, she is to give malefic results.
But being a friend of Jupiter, she does not give the malefic results as required.
But if the same Moon is the lord of the 6th house in Aquarius Lagna, she being
the enemy of Saturn, would give powerful malefic results, the result that
would be unendurable by the native. The native would suffer from the
diseases of ascites, anaemic condition, death in water etc. which are known
as the diseases of Aquarius ascendants. In short, malefic planet gives malefic
result, but it should also be noted that the natural friendship of the planets
may increase or decrease the results accordingly.

10. Planets send its vibrations or effect to another planet through conjunction,
opposition or aspect. For instance, if Mars aspects Saturn, the effect of Mars is
carried off by Saturn in the houses where Saturn is situated or aspects.
11. The effect of the aspect of planet is considered powerful. For instance, if
Venus occupying ascendant and wishes to create his effect in the 1st house
but if Jupiter aspects ascendant from the 7th house the effect of Venus in the
1st house is destroyed and the native’s 1st house comes under the influence of
Jupiter.
12. Exalted planets and the planets in their own houses are considered to be
powerful, whereas debilitated planets are considered to be weak.
13. Planets of 29 or 0 degree are considered to be ineffective, cannot create
effect and are in the extinct state. In any birth chart, if the lord of 9th house is
of 0 degree, the native would not be benefited in connection with fortune. In
the same way, if the ascendant or the lord of the ascendant of any native is of
0 degree, the native will be weak in body, mind and soul. If the lord of 6th
house is of 0 degree, it cannot create diseases or enemies in the same way,
for the 8th house, no worries of short life and no worries of expenditure, debt,
loss, interest and insolvency for the 12th house. It should also be noted
similarly that the planet of 29 or 0 degree cannot create its own benefic or
malefic effect.
14. Saturn being the significator of the 6th, 8th and 12th houses should be
considered as malefic (except in Gemini and Virgo ascendants) even though
he may be of exalted position.
15. If Saturn (except Gemini and Virgo ascendant) is in the 4th or 7th or in 11th
house, and if the benefic Sun, Moon, Mars or Jupiter do not aspect the 1st
house, the combination of Saturn’s contact with the 1st house or its lord by
conjunction, opposition or aspect puts the native into great difficulties and
creates blockade in business or service.
16. If Saturn is in the 1st house and if Sun, Moon, Mars or Jupiter is also in the 1st
house – then also the native experiences great difficulties.
17. If Saturn aspects the 1st house and if the Sun, Moon, Mars or Jupiter is in the
1st house itself, then also the native gets similar results as the aspect is
considered more powerful.
18. If Saturn aspects 1st house and the Sun, Moon, Mars or Jupiter also aspects
the 1st house same results as explained above. But if Saturn is in 1st house
3

and the Sun, Moon, Mars or Jupiter aspects the 1st house, no such difficulties
will be experienced by the native because the aspects of planets are
considered more powerful.
19. If Saturn is aspected one-sided by Mars or Jupiter, then Saturn is considered
to be benefic.
20. In the birth chart of Taurus and Libra ascendants, if Venus and Saturn are in
conjunction, opposition or aspect, then Venus acts as a malefic, because
Venus is the lord of 6th and 8th houses respectively. So the relation of Venus
and Saturn in this birth chart is considered to be malefic. In the same way in
the ascendant of Aries and Scorpio, the relation of Saturn with Mars is
considered to be malefic.
21. If the lord of trine, quadrant or the lord of 3rd house is in the 1st house, then it
is considered to be very powerful, because it gets the strength of the 1st
house.
22. If any benefic planet is in its own significating house, then it is considered to
be powerful; for instance, Jupiter as lord of 7th house is in the 5th or 9th house.
23. If any significator (except Saturn or except in the house of 6th, 8th or 12th) is in
its own house, then it is considered to be powerful. For instance, the
significator of 5th house is in its own 10th house, he I considered to be
powerful as a significator of the 5th house.
24. If Jupiter is in Taurus for Libra ascendant or in Libra for Taurus ascendant,
then the native is unable to achieve the required benefic results. The reason
is that Venus rejects the nature of Jupiter, as he is the enemy of Jupiter.
25. It should also be noted that the Sun, the Moon, Mars and Jupiter are on the
Gods side, they are victorious and powerful, while Mercury, Venus and Saturn
are on the devils side, they are defeated ones i.e. in the matter of prediction,
Venus, Mercury and Saturn cannot create benefic result as much as created
by the Sun, the Moon, Mars or Jupiter.
26. If Venus and Mars are related to the 7th house, then the native experiences
difficulties in married life. In contrast to this, if Venus is weak in any birth
chart and if there is combination of 7th house or lord of 7th house with Mars by
conjunction, opposition or aspect, then the native of such birth chart
experience a blessed married life.
27. Exalted malefics are considered as benefic.

28. The exalted Saturn is considered as malefic. The native of such exalted
Saturn runs ahead beyond their capacity and consequently they have to
retreat and experience despair forever.
29. The combination of exalted malefic + Saturn or exalted malefic + malefic
should be considered as malefic.
30. If benefic planet is aspected one-sided by Saturn or malefic planet, then the
result of this benefic planet should be taken as malefic one; but if this benefic
planet is aspected by any benefic planet, it should not be taken as malefic,
i.e. benefic is always benefic.
31. Saturn, Mercury and the signs of Capricorn, Aquarius, Gemini or Virgo are
considered to be malefic for the 7th house and the 5th house, in the matter of
married love and happiness of children respectively even though they are
benefic in the birth chart.
