Lal Kitab Concepts

Primary houses of planets according to Lal Kitab

The system of Lal Kitab gives more importance to houses (bhava) than signs. This does not mean that signs do not have any relevance in the Lal Kitab analysis, they are relevant in their own way. But, the houses in a horoscope has been given more significance and considered to be a major aspect for the analysis of good result and character of the native. Each planet is the Karaka of some or the other house and considered to be the fixed house in the method of Lal Kitab.

In Vedic astrology each planets is assigned with one Karaka, similarly in Lal Kitab each house is also allocated with one Karaka. According to Lal Kitab, these Karaka are known as fixed houses of the planets. Planets are considered to be more important since Lal Kitab give more significance to houses, rather than signs. The Karak elements of Vedic astrology and Lal Kitab are almost same. however, there might be some differences in the Karak of few houses in Lal Kitab.

According to a principal of Lal Kitab, a house is considered to be in a sleeping state if it is not aspected by any planet. But if the planet is situated in a fixed house like Sun in the first house, Jupiter in the second house etc then that planet is considered to be in awakened state. It means that the planet will be able to affect other planets aspecting the house with its effect.

Another point to be considered about Lal Kitab principles is that signs of each house is considered to be stable for instance; aries will always stay in the first house, taurus in the second house and so on. The birth time of the native does not affect this sequence.

Thus, each planet is related to a house which is known as the fixed house. These fixed houses are as follows:

  • House 1 is assigned to planet Sun.
  • House 2 is assigned to planet Jupiter.
  • House 3 is assigned to planet Mars.
  • House 4 is assigned to planet Moon.
  • House 5 is assigned to planet Jupiter.
  • House 6 is assigned to planet Mercury and Ketu.
  • House 7 is assigned to planet Mercury and Venus.
  • House 8 is assigned to planet Mars and Saturn.
  • House 9 is assigned to planet Jupiter.
  • House 10 is assigned to planet Saturn.
  • House 11 is assigned to planet Jupiter.
  • House 12 is assigned to planet Jupiter.

These are the most important principles of Lal Kitab and all the analysis are based on these principles only. The fact behind studying these houses is that the person is also able to understand the karak element of these houses that plays a vital role in formation of the horoscope.

Relations Between Planets and Signs in Lal Kitab

In Lal kitab the significance of signs and planets have been described very clearly. Each sign has a lord. Aries and Scorpio signs are ruled by Mars, Venus is the lord of Taurus and Libra, Mercury is the lord of Gemini and Virgo, Jupiter is the lord of Sagittarius and Pisces, Moon is the lord of Moon and Sun is the lord of Leo.

Other than these, Ketu has been assigned the ownership of Virgo, while Rahu is the lord of Pisces. It should be noted that the signs mentioned in the lal kitab are not similar to the sign in birth chart, but belong to fixed houses. Whenever you make a horoscope erase the numbers in front of each sign. Begin with writing numbers from Aries sign i.e mark Aries as.

The exalted and debilitated position of the signs are analyzed through these numbers only.

Exalted planet is strong and gives auspicious results

The debilitated planet is weak and unable to give good results.

Planets in its own sign is considered good as well.

If the planet is exalted in the first sign, then it will be debilitated in the seventh sign from the first sign. For instance: if Sun is exalted in the first sign (Aries), then it will become debilitated in the seventh sign (Libra). Similarly, if Saturn is exalted in the seventh sign (Libra), then it will be debilitated in the first sign (Aries).

Table For Relations Between Planets and Signs

Sign Number 1 2 3 4 5 6
Name Sign Aries Taurus Gemini Cancer Leo Virgo
Planetary Lords Mars Venus Mercury Moon Sun Mercury /ketu
Exalted Planets Sun Moon rahu Jupiter - Mercury /rahu
Debilitated Planets Saturn - ketu Mars - Venus /ketu
Pakka Houses Sun Jupiter Mars Moon Jupiter ketu
Karak of Destiny Mars Moon Mercury Moon sun Rahu
Planets of Grahphal Mars Rahu/ketu Saturn Moon Jupiter /sun Mercury /ketu
Planets of Rashiphal Rahu - Saturn Mars /Venus /ketu - Nara planet Saturn

 

Sign Number 7 8 9 10 11 12
Name Sign Libra Scorpio Sagittarius Capricorn Aquarius Pisces
Planetary Lords Venus Mars Jupiter Saturn Saturn Jupiter /rahu
Exalted Planets Saturn - ketu Mars - Venus /krtu
Debilitated Planets Sun Moon Rahu Jupiter - Mercury /Rahu
Pakka Houses Venus /Mercury Mars /Saturn Jupiter Saturn Jupiter Rahu
Karak of Destiny Venus Moon Jupiter Saturn Jupiter ketu
Planets of Grahphal Venus Mars Jupiter Saturn Jupiter /Saturn Rahu
Planets of Rashiphal Sun/Mercury /Rahu - Saturn ketu/Mercury - Mercury

 

In this table, the Ketu being the lord of the sixth house is debilitated, but some other planet has been given the ownership of the house. The house in which Ketu is placed have some other lord in its pakka house. Seven signs and 12 planets are considered to be the cycle of 84 yonis. In the eighth year, every planet has to go through the same effects.

With the help of these principles it can be said that a planet begins giving results when it transits through a sign.

Neither of the planet is debilitated In the second house or Taurus sign. This house is combined with Rahu/Ketu. Thus, this sign has not been assigned any planet. In this situation, the planet present in this house is able to give its results independently according to its own auspicious and inauspicious karak elements.

The planet placed in the fifth house is neither exalted nor debilitated. The planet situated in this house is responsible for the income and children.

Similarly, Aquarius i.e eleventh house doesn't have any exalted or debilitated positions.It determines the destiny in terms of materialism.

Pakka Ghar of Planet

Pakka Ghar is nothing but  the concept of natural signification of houses. Sun's Pakka ghar is Lagna. The other planets Pakka Ghars are as under:

Sun Lagna
Moon 4th house
Mars 3rd & 8th house
Mercury 7th house
Jupiter 2nd, 5th, 9th and 11th house
Venus 7th house
Saturn 8th and 10th house
Rahu 12th house
ketu 6th house

Friends and Foes of Planets

Normally we find that the seven planets are friendly with the planets which fall into 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 12th position from their original triangular zodiac. The remaining planetary lords of the zodiacs are enemies. If any of these is both friend as well as enemy then he becomes neutral.

This can be explained by an illustration The original zodiac house of Sun is Leo. Moon is the lord of it's 12th house whose zodiac is Cancer. Hence the Sun and the Moon are friends. Mars is fourth (Scorpio) from Leo and (Lord of ninth Aries). Therefore they are friends. Similarly, the zodiac Gemini of Mercury is in the eleventh house of Leo. Hence Mercury tends to be enemy but Virgo is in the second house of Leo. Therefore Mercury becomes a friend. Consequently, Mercury becomes neutral to the Sun.

If we carefully study the relationship of the planets we discover that no planets besides Rahu and Ketu are inimical to Moon. Jupiter is not inimical to any planet.

Relationship of Rahu Ketu is determined on the basis of divine and demonic planets. They are enemies of the divine (Dev) planets like Sun, Moon, Mars and Jupiter and friendly with Venus, Saturn, Rahu, Ketu and Mercury.

Each planet has his friends as well as his enemies just as we human beings do. The list for illustration is given below.

Planet Friends Enemies
Sun Jupiter, Mars, Moon Venus, Saturn, Rahu & Ketu
Moon Sun, Mercury Ketu, Rahu
Mars Sun, Moon, Jupiter Mercury, Ketu
Mercury Sun, Venus, Rahu Moon
Jupiter Sun, Moon, Mars Venus, Mercury
Venus Saturn, Mercury, Ketu Sun, Moon, Rahu
Saturn Mercury, Venus, Rahu Sun, Moon, Mars
Rahu Mercury, Ketu, Saturn Sun, Venus, Mars
Ketu Venus, Rahu Moon, Mars

Apart from friendship or enmity of planets there is also a concept of equivalent planets. The planets so grouped are supposed to be equal in strength. The list of planets is as given under.

Mercury Sun
Venus, Saturn, Jupiter and Mars Moon
Venus, Saturn, and Rahu Mars
Saturn, Ketu, Mars and Jupiter Mercury
Rahu, Ketu and Saturn Jupiter
Mars and Jupiter Venus
Ketu and Jupiter Saturn
Jupiter and Moon Rahu
Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury and Sun Ketu

 

Mercury and Sun or Rahu and Mars are posited in one sign together Mercury or Rahu would always be quiet. Moon and Sun when posited in any sign with Rahu and Ketu respectively will be less powerful.

Artificial Planets

Kitab has the concept that a group of two planets are equivalent to planet noted against each. The list is given below.

Mercury Sun
Venus, Saturn, Jupiter and Mars Moon
Venus, Saturn, and Rahu Mars
Saturn, Ketu, Mars and Jupiter Mercury
Rahu, Ketu and Saturn Jupiter
Mars and Jupiter Venus
Ketu and Jupiter Saturn
Jupiter and Moon Rahu
Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury and Sun Ketu
 
Planets individually equal to Planets
Mercury Sun
Venus, Saturn, Jupiter and Mars Moon
Venus, Saturn, and Rahu Mars
Saturn, Ketu, Mars and Jupiter Mercury
Rahu, Ketu and Saturn Jupiter
Mars and Jupiter Venus
Ketu and Jupiter Saturn
Jupiter and Moon Rahu
Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury and Sun Ketu

Sin and Sinful Planets

Often there is reference of  Paap (Sin) and Paapi (Sinful) planets in Lal Kitab. From Paap or sin is meant Rahu and Ketu from Paapi grahas the reference is to three planets namely Rahu, Ketu and Saturn. Also some astrologers consider Mars is included with them. If any other  planet is sitting with any of these planet then the sitting planet also become a paapi planet.

Kayam Graha or Established Planet

If a planet reside in a house then it becomes the lord of the same house. The planet which can give his results freely and without hindrance is called an established planet. In other words no enemy planet should occupy his houses of lordship, exaltation, debility and of  his signification. He should also not be a saathi planet or comrade and he should have no aspect of any planet.

Dharmi Grahas or Righteous Planets

Saturn, Rahu and Ketu are known as Paapi Planets but they also some times become the Dharmi or righteous planets. Rahu and Ketu become righteous in the 4th house or anywhere in the chart with Moon. Similarly Saturn becomes righteous when posited in 11th house or anywhere in the chart with Jupiter.

By becoming righteous they do not give good results or become benefices. They shall not simply afflict the house or the planet. They become neutral. They on there part will not promote or cause any bad effects.

Muqabla ke Graha or Matching Planets

This is a enormous thing in Lal Kitab. Each planet has his own friends who behave in a friendly way. Some times one of such planets may occupy the house of lordship or the Pakka Ghar of his friendly planet and that planet does not occupy any such house of the former. In such a case the two planets, although friends may not remain the true friends. The behavior of the former will be suspected. He may at times spoil the results of  his friendly planets. The planet shall be known as matching planets. Sun and Mars are friends. If  Mars occupies the Lagna and Sun does not occupy such house of mars, Mars behavior under such circumstances may or may not be friendly to Sun. Mars would be called a matching planet to Sun. Both can harm each other.

Classifications Of Planets

Auspicious Planets

Moon, Mercury, Ketu and Jupiter are serially most auspicious planets.

Wicked Planets (Krur)

Sun, Mars, Saturn and Rahu are serially more wicked.

Mercury is in itself an auspicious planet, but it becomes an evil with wicked planets. It becomes all the more wicked if placed with auspicious planets.

Moon is also primarily an auspicious planet but from the sixth day of Krishna Pakash to Amavasya the strength of Moon is less powerful.

From Pratipada of Shukla Paksha to the tenth day it's power is of medium strength.

From eleventh day of Shukla Paksha to fifth day of Krishna Paksha it is in its full form, i.e. with maximum power.

Difference between the Effect of Jupiter and Venus

Jupiter is a divine teacher (guru) while Venus is a devil teacher (guru). Venus helps people in acquiring materialistic values while Jupiter helps the person in obtaining spiritual values. Venus makes the person selfish while Jupiter inspires him to think of the well being of others.

Difference between the Cruelty of Saturn and Mars

Although Saturn is cruel but its ultimate result is good. Just as gold emerges out sparkling after being burnt in the furnace of fire, Saturn purifies the man by means of punishments. It has an effect of catharsis, the man emerges as a free and pious man after getting liberated of the evil deed. Mars, on the other hand, fills the man with excitement and cheerfulness; the man is inspired by egoistic feelings which drive him to evil and violent deeds.

Auspicious and Inauspicious Effects of Lonely Planets in Lal Kitab

According to Lal Kitab, a planet gives auspicious results when placed alone in a house or is not aspected by any other planet in a horoscope. Here, lonely planet signifies the planet occupying a house alone and is not aspected by any other planet.

Here an inauspicious planet usually means a planet occupying a house in its debilitated state or is placed in an enemy house or with enemy planet.

On the other hand, an auspicious planet here indicates that the planet is the lord of the house it is occupying, or placed in a friendly house or placed in a house in exalted state.

Lets explore the auspicious and Inauspicious effects of Lonely planets.

  • Jupiter- Jupiter does not give bad results when placed alone in any house of the kundali.

Likewise, a planet placed alone in a house away from the effect of aspecting planets have following effects.

  • Jupiter- Jupiter away from the aspect of any planet will have negative influence when placed in 6, 7 and 10 house and will be auspicious in 1,5,8,9,11 and 12 house.
  • Sun- Sun will be inauspicious in 6,7 and 10th house, whereas house 1 to 5, 8, 8, 11 and 12 are auspicious for it.
  • Moon- 6, 8 and 10 to 12 are inauspicious houses for the moon and 1 to 5, 7 and 9 are auspicious houses.
  • Venus- 1, 6, 9 are inauspicious houses for Venus and 2 to 5, 7, 8, 10, 11 12 are auspicious houses.
  • Mars- Mars will be auspicious in 4 and 8 houses and inauspicious in 1 to 3, 5 to 7, 9 to 12 houses of the birth chart.
  • Mercury- Mercury is inauspicious in 3, 8 and 12 house, but it is not necessary in every condition. It gives inauspicious results when placed in 1,2. 4, 5, 6 and 7 houses.

  • Ketu- 3 to 6 and 8 houses are inauspicious and 1,2,7,9 and 12 are auspicious houses.

 

Relationship of planets according to Lal Kitab

Relationship of planets in Lal Kitab are similar to that of Vedic astrology. Each planetary relationship has its own significance and principle in Lal Kitab also. In Vedic astrology the relationships of planets are stable and effects of relationship formed between two naturally planets is also natural, but in Lal Kitab they work according to specific principles.

In traditional astrology, the knowledge on relationship of planets can be achieved through Panchdha Maitri Chakra and Tatkaleen Maitri Chakra. Similarly, Lal Kitab also provided the knowledge on planetary relationships.

Sun Planet

  • Jupiter, Mars and Moon are friendly planets.
  • Venus, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu are enemy planets.
  • Mercury and Sun share even relationship.

Moon Planet

  • Jupiter, Mars, Sun and Saturn are friendly planets.
  • Rahu and Ketu are enemy planets.
  • Mercury and Venus share an even relationship with Moon.

Mars Planet

  • Sun, Moon and Jupiter are friendly planets.
  • Mercury and Ketu are enemy planets.
  • Venus, Saturn and Rahu share an even relationship with Mars.

Jupiter Planet

  • Sun, Moon and Mars are friendly planets.
  • Jupiter considers Venus and Mercury as its enemy.
  • Rahu, Ketu and Saturn are even with Jupiter.

Venus Planet

  • Saturn, Mercury and Ketu are friendly planets.
  • Sun, Moon and Rahu are enemy planets.
  • Mars and Jupiter are even with Venus.

Mercury Planet

  • Venus Sun and Rahu are friendly planets.
  • Mercury considers Moon as its enemy.
  • Saturn, Ketu, Mars and Jupiter are even with Mercury.

Saturn Planet

  • Mercury, Venus and Rahu are friendly planets
  • Sun, Moon and Mars are its enemy planets.
  • Jupiter and Ketu are even.

Rahu Planet

  • Mercury, Saturn and Ketu are friendly planets for Rahu.
  • Sun, Venus and Mars are enemy planets for Rahu.
  • Jupiter and Moon are even with Rahu.

Ketu Planet

  • Venus and Rahu are friendly planets.
  • Sun, Moon and Mars are enemy planets.
  • Jupiter, Saturn and Mercury are even.
  • Other than the above mentioned principles of friendly and enemy planets, there are certain facts that depict relationships between planets.

Other special conditions of planetary relationships

  • When Moon and Venus are equal, but Moon considers Venus as its enemy.
  • When Jupiter and Venus are equal, but Venus considers Jupiter as its enemy.
  • When Mars and Saturn are even with each other, but Mars considers saturn as an enemy planet.
  • Mercury and Moon are friends with each other, but Moon considers Mercury as its enemy.
  • Similarly, Mercury-Jupiter are enemy of each other but Jupiter in the second and fourth house supports Mercury and improves financial condition rather than fighting with it.

In contrast to Vedic astrology, the relationships between natural planets are unstable in Lal Kitab. For instance: Sun and Saturn are natural enemies of each other. In Lal Kitab kundali, Sun occupies the first house and Saturn occupied ninth. Since Saturn in this condition is situated nine house away from the house of Sun, it will provide support to it. This proves the principal of Lal kitab that relationships between naturally friendly and enemy planets can be seen changing as per the changing conditions.

 

Time of speed and effects of planets in Lal Kitab

With the help of a lal kitab one can easily determine the effect of a planet according to the age of the native. Also, each planet is classified on the basis of gender in lal kitaab.

  • Sun - Sun has special influence on the life of a person in the age of 22.
  • Moon- Moon influences in the 24th year of age.
  • Mars - Mars has special influence in the age of 28.
  • Mercury- Mercury influences the life of a person at the age of 34.
  • Jupiter- Jupiter will have maximum influence on a person’s life at the age of 16.
  • Venus- The person is influenced by Venus when he becomes 25 years old.
  • Saturn- The influence of Saturn can be see at the age of 36.
  • Rahu- Rahu influences the person in the age of 42.
  • Ketu- Ketu influences the person when he becomes 48 years old.

This concept can be clearly understood through following example:

If Sun is in the seventh house of 22 year old native, then he might have to face obstacles in the government related works and other things related to the seventh house.

Gender of planets and their time of effect

All the planets are classified on the basis of gender in the lal kitab. It also specifies the specific time of each planet when they have maximum effect.

  • Sun - Sun is considered to be a male planet. It is strong during the day time and have maximum effect in the daylight.
  • Mars - Mars is considered to be a male planet. Similar to the Sun, it is believed to be strong during the day time and have maximum effect in the daylight.
  • Jupiter - Jupiter is also considered to be a male planet. This planet is also known to be strong during the day time and have maximum effect in the daylight.
  • Moon - Moon is a female planet. It is stronger during the night time and have maximum effect at night only.
  • Venus - Venus is also a female planet. This planet is also believed to be strong at night and have maximum effect at the same time.
  • Mercury - Mercury is a neuter planet. It puts its maximum effect in the morning and evening.
  • Saturn- Saturn is also considered to be a neuter planet. Its maximum effect can be seen in the morning and evening time.
  • Rahu- Rahu is also considered to be a neuter planet. Its maximum effect can be seen in the morning and evening time.
  • Ketu- Ketu is also considered to be a neuter planet. Its maximum effect can be seen in the morning and evening time. Similarly to Rahu, it has maximum effect in the morning and evening.

 

Slaughtered Planets (Qurbani Ke Bakre) in Lal Kitab

Lal kitab has its own set of principles for slaughtered planets or Qurbani ke bakre. Slaughtered planets means a planet when severely afflicted with enemy planets give bad results too. The planet through which it shows inauspicious results is known as Qurbani ka bakra. Let’s clarify this by an example. Suppose if Saturn is afflicted by the Sun, then Venus will give inauspicious results i.e Venus will become the Qurbani ka bakra in this situation. Thus, it is very normal if other planets considers the shelter of other planets for its own protection.

Similarly, if a kundli has an afflicted Venus then the planet will generate its negative influence through Moon. As a result the native may have problems with his mother and children or his mother may have an ill health.

Jupiter : An afflicted Jupiter in a Kundali shows its negative impact through Ketu. For instance: if Jupiter is in the fifth house and Ketu is placed in any of the house in a kundali, then Jupiter will not affect the fifth house in any condition but, will have negative influence on the house in which Ketu is placed.

  • Similarly, an afflicted Sun will generate negative impact through Ketu only.
  • An afflicted Moon cast its negative influence either through Sun, Mars, or Jupiter.
  • An afflicted Mars sheds its malefic nature through Ketu.
  • When Mercury is afflicted in a kundali then the negative influence of Mercury is generated through Venus.
  • An afflicted Venus generates its negative impact through Moon.
  • An afflicted Saturn gets rid of its negative influence through Venus.
  • Rahu incorporate its negative impact by its own object or through objects related with it.

In the concept of Qurbani ke Bakre Sun, Mars and Jupiter generate negative impact on Ketu. Let’s understand this concept by an example. Suppose a kundli has an afflicted Jupiter then it will project its negative influence by establishing a relationship with Ketu and things related to it. Ketu is the significator of the 6th house of a kundli and for this reason the native may have problems with his maternal uncle.

Similarly, if a kundli has an afflicted Venus then the planet will generate its negative influence through Moon. As a result the native may have problems with his mother or her mother may have to suffer from an ill health. Thus, an afflicted planet for its own cause butchers its friendly planet.

 

Lal Kitab Banavati Grah (Artificial planets)

In Lal Kitab kundali each planet has its own artificial planet. These planets have their own significance which are discussed below :

Artificial Planets for Sun

Mercury and Venus are artificial planets for Sun. They affect health of an individual.

Artificial Planets for Moon

Sun and Jupiter are artificial planet for Moon. They have significant effect on parent’s blood related issues.

Artificial Planets for Mars

Sun and Mercury are artificial planets for Mars. However, Mars is a good planet but in connection with the Sun and Saturn it becomes bad. It determines the age of the child.

Artificial Planets for Mercury

Jupiter and Rahu are artificial planets for Mercury. It represents respect and honor.

Artificial Planets for Jupiter

Sun and Venus are artificial planets for Jupiter. It influences the birth or occurrence of a child.

Artificial Planets for Venus

Rahu and Ketu are artificial planets for Venus. They influence the worldly pleasures.

Artificial Planets for Saturn

Rahu, Mars, Mercury and Ketu are artificial planets for Venus. These planets influence health and illness.

Artificial Planets for Rahu

Mars and Saturn are exalted artificial planets, whereas Sun and Saturn are debilitated. These planets influence conflicts and disharmony.

Artificial Planets for Ketu

Venus and Saturn are exalted artificial planets, whereas Moon and Saturn are debilitated for Ketu. They are the lord of comfort and luxuries and influence them significantly.

Lal Kitab uses the system of artificial planets. These planets are formed when two planets conjunct each other. According to Lal Kitab when a primary planet suffer due to some cause, then artificial planets are introduced as a remedy to make it strong and auspicious.

Artificial planets are used to reduce the inauspiciousness of primary planets. For instance: if Mercury and Venus are in the third house of a kundali and Venus is giving inauspicious results, then the health of the spouse is affected and create conflicts in a relationship. This happens because Mercury and Venus are artificial planets for Sun and Sun is the karak of health. Thus, a malefic Venus may create health troubles for the spouse.

To correct this defect, Mercury and Venus can be considered as the planet and Mercury becomes the artificial planet. Jupiter is formed with Rahu and artificial Venus is formed by the conjunction of Rahu-Ketu. Venus can be treated by two ways. In the first method the native can dig a blue coloured stone on Thursday at the time of the sunset in an isolated place covered with grass to reduce the ill-effects of Venus.

Alternatively, the native can feed milk or milk cream to a dog on Thursday to get beneficial results of Venus. Thus, the ill-effects of an inauspicious primary planet can be treated by following the remedies.

 

Mahadasha of Planets according to Lal Kitab

The concept of Mahadasha of planeta are based on the principles laid down by Lal Kitab itself. Similarly to vedic astrology, the period of Mahadasha in Lal Kitab is of 120 years which mo0ves according to its own principles.

Rules for Mahadasha

When a planet is accompanied by a malefic or debilitated planet in an ascendant without being affected by it and becomes debilitated or malefic in a varshaphal is counted under the influence of mahadasha from that specific date.

When a planet is debilitated or malefic and is also accompanied by a malefic or an inauspicious planet then it is considered to be under the influence of mahadasha since the day it enters the ascendant.

During the phase of mahadasha an afflicted planet is not able to get any help from its friendly planets. But, enemy planets have its full effect.

The planet of mahadasha have the same effect on other planets of the horoscope as it is without this condition.

If planets in the 1, 4, 7 and 10th house are accompanied with strong or exalted planets in other houses of the horoscope then Mahadasha will get cancelled.

If the planet or birth and planet of the sign are auspicious or exalted in a horoscope, then also Mahadasha do not take place.

Time of Mahadasha of Planets

The Mahadasha of Jupiter will begin when Saturn will be in the first house, Ketu in the third and sixth house, Jupiter in the tenth house and Rahu in the ninth and twelfth house of a horoscope.

Mahadasha of Sun begins with Sun itself is in the seventh house and Mercury is in the twelfth house of a horoscope.

Mahadahsa of Moon begins when Saturn comes in the first house, Mercury lies in the fourth house, Venus in the sixth house, Moon in the eighth house and Jupiter in the tenth houseof a horoscope.

Venus’s Mahadasha begins when Mars is in the fourth house, Venus is in the sixth house and Jupiter lies in the tenth house of a horoscope.

Mahadasha of Mars begins when Saturn is in the first house, Mars is in the fourth house. Venus is in the sixth house and Rahu lies in the ninth and twelfth house of a horoscope.

Mahadasha of Mercury begins when Saturn lies in the first house, Ketu in the third and sixth house, Jupiter in the tenth house and Mercury itself in the twelfth house of a horoscope.

Saturn’s mahadasha begins when Saturn occupies the first house, Ketu is in the third and sixth house and Jupiter is in the tenth house of a horoscope.

Mahadasha of Rahu begins when Moon is in the eighth house, Rahu is in the ninth and twelfth house and Jupiter in the tenth house of a horoscope.

Mahadasha of Ketu begins when Saturn is in the first house, Ketu is in the third and sixth and house, Sun is in the seventh house, Jupiter is in the tenth house and Mercury is in the twelfth house of a horoscope.
