Vedic astrology works in layers, the principles and fundamentals that seem contrary work in parallel here, this perhaps is the reason that most seem to not understand the core and concepts of astrology.
For example, all texts maintain benefic planets in Kendras are good, but BPHS differs here it rather adds a condition that if benefic owns the Kendra it will behave like neutral and its other sign will decide its functionality.
Bhava Adhaya of Phaldeepika maintains that bhava that have Benefic in it, receives benefic aspect or is hemmed in benefic planets receives strength and gives a boost to its significations.
Note -It's Bhava that gets strength here.
Now Panch Mahapursh Yoga if the benefic planets are exalted I mean Jupiter and Venus don't own the Kendras, therefore will produce good as planets, and the bhava they are in will also prosper, the same is applicable to bhava the aspect. I am not taking Mercury here as it's conditional Benefic.
For Malefics If Mars exalts as Kendra's lord in Cancer ascendant it is a Yoga karaka and as lord of trine, it will produce good, libra as 7th/2nd lord in 10th it gains on directional strength as well as lord of 7th and 2nd it may give gains in independent profession, further its placement is good from both signs. In Capricorn Mars is the lord of 11th and 4th so it may give gains from house properties, land, and Vehicles but the native may also b prone to accidents and injuries through or from Vehicles. In Aries ascendant Mars in 10th is a blessing it will give good health and a stable career.
