I am sure there would be some specific rules as n when Badhekesh would have n negative effect or NOT ?? Also wondering if there's any cancellation of badhaka as such OR any rule when badhaka planets will give absolutely no badhaka/only-positive effects.
Here I quote what was posted by Basab (few years back) to give general definition of the Badhaka planet -
Where is Mr. Basab Roy these days...dont see him anymore ?When the ascendant is a Moveable sign(Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) the 11th house from the ascendant becomes the Badhaksthan and the 11th lord the Badhakesh.
When ascendant is a Fixed sign(Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius) the 9th house from the ascendant becomes the Badhaksthan and the 9th lord the Badhakesh.
When ascendant is a Dual sign(Gemini, Virgo, Saggitarius, Pisces) the 7th house from the lagna becomes the the Badhaksthan and the 7th lord the Badhakesh.
Now the planets that are associated(position,aspect, conjunction) with the Badhakesh and the Badhaksthan will suffer in respect to the significance of it's lordships.
But there are some points to think about. They are as follows:
1. For fixed signs the 9th house becomes the Badhaksthan and the 9th lord the Badhakesh but at the same time the 9th house is the strongest trinal house and thus a very benefic house so why should it bring sufferings?
2. For leo and Aquarius lagna Mars and Venus are the yogakaraks for the respective lagnas but at the same time they lord the 9th house for fixed sign lagnas making them Badhakeshs, so how will they function: as strong benefics because they are yogakaraks or as malefics because they are Badhakeshs or will they function as neutrals?
As mentioned in my other thread, I have seen badhaka planets to work absolutely fine in numerous chart...whether placed in trines or dusthana or there own / MT houses.
I will post few charts ones I get to hear the general consensus !
