Rahu Alone or Rahu Conjunct with a Planet

[shilpa]

shilpa ji

i would like you to explain if rahu is with venus in gemini lagna with rahu at 27degrees and venus at 25 degrees what will be the eects of rahu maha dasha

Dear Sri,
Venus is strong in the friendly house of Me....and hence Rahu will act like Venus...magnifying the effects of Venus.

During the Rahu Mahadasa you will see Venusian and 1st house affects....overall imporvement in the quality of life, career, health, comforts.

Rahu sits in the Nakshatra of Jup whihc is well placed in the 10th house in Pisces....although this will be secondary as the primary significations of rahu will be through the conjunctions which is positive.

The sub-period to watch out for and be careful will be the Ra-Ket period......will put stress on relationship in some form.

Do Rahu Poojan throuhgout the Dasa, tel arpan on a iron Rahu diety establihed in the house and chanting Rahu mantra in cycles of 108 as amny times as possible.

Regards

@shilpa ji..
thanks a lot madam for ur efforts again..
Now its clear that my son's kundali is not the cause of worry.
But I still do not understand why the problem is there then...

Dear Srialok,

--thanks for the PM with details about your wife's troubles.

--She has a Jup ascendant

--she is running Jup MD and Jupiter sits in the 8th house, a dusthan inicating health troubles and conjunct with the debilitated lord of the 6th house (another dusthan) and has a zero amsabala in dasavarga charts

--A weak ascendat Lord sitting in the 8th, afflicted by the conjunction with the 6th house lord and running the MD of that weakend lord is the overall cause of her ferquent health issues and general instability.

--But because that Lord is bening Jup and also the Ascendant.....he will also pull her out of all the problems, without giving her any permanent damage.

--She should immediately in my suggestion start doing pooja and fasts ( if possible) on Thursdays.
chant the brihspati mantra " Om brim Brihaspataye Namah" 108 times as many cycles as possible.
offer gur/ chana and bananas to cow on Thursdays.
establish a Jupiter Yantra in the poojan place of yuor house if possible.

a lot of the problems will reduce greatly by doing the above.

Hi readers

Just one more additional point for this thread from me.

Earlier on I mentioned about combining the precepts of Shilpa and Sonu for the Rahu and Ketu in a chart - please re-read them if you have forgotten.

Now the thing is both of these precepts have something to do with Rahu or Ketu's placement in the Bhava of the chart eg. for Shilpa's precept on the strength of the various dasas of the planets conjuncting the nodes and the dasas of the nodes itself in that Bhava, for Son's precept it would be the nodes turning into the planet ruling the sign the nodes are in and taking into account the position of that planet in the other Bhava of the chart as well.

But in all cases, the rulership of the nodes' signs and Nakshatras the effects would always be felt where the nodes are placed. So for example, Rahu ruling Gemini and Aquarius and Swati, Stabbatashik and Ardara, the effects on Rahu and hence the Bhava where Rahu is placed would never change. But based on Sonu's precepts, during the nodes' dasa where it turn into the planet ruling the sign where the node is posited, the effects of the nodes rulership of its own sign and Nakshatra SHOULD BE LESS.

But dasa period is when you feel intensely the characteristic of a particular planet. So for the nodes this is the inverse of a normal situation. Hence classics tend to EMPHASISE LESS, the sign rulership of the nodes like in BPHS. Nakshatra rulership by the nodes should also be less during the nodes' dasa.

Hi readers

Also Son'u's precepts of the node turning into the planet ruling the sign in which it is placed during the node's dasa would mean that the conjunction of the planet to the node (if any) and the background sign of the node where it is placed is stronger during the dasa of the node than during the non-dasa.

This is understood in the post which I last mentioned but I state it so that less proficient readers (mabye because you are new) would have an even clearer picture.

I have Rah conjunct with Sun in the eigth house.How will be my Rah mahadaha.Rah is considered bad in eigth house moreover it is aspected by retro mars (eigth lord).In the past in VEN-RAH, I got my first good job.In Sun-Rah , I lost in share market.& in Mon-Rah , I was deprived of my promotion.

[Khoo Hock Leong]

Hi readers

Also during Rahu (or Ketu) dasa, the aspects of Rahu still remain although less in intensity because Rahu has turned into the graha ruling the background sign which it is placed.

Hence the house aspected by Rahu and the planet it conjuncts with during Rahu's dasa may be very good if Rahu is in a beneficial sign (like Cancer) and conjunct a beneficial planet (like Venus) as the aspect would bring the effects of both these beneficial planets to the house concerned (the houses trine to where Rahu is placed). The aspects of Rahu do not just disappear during Rahu's dasa when Rahu turns into the planet ruling the background sign which it is placed.

I missed stating this point the last time when I posted this thread.

Hi Khoo and Shilpaji,

Very interesting thread. I have the combination of standalone Rahu in Swati in Libra my 11th house (with Venus debilitated in the 10th house Virgo) while Ketu in the 5th is aspected by Mars and Saturn, in addition to the 5th house aspect of Rahu himself. I had gone through the Rahu dasha between the age 6 and 24, with not very pleasant memories of my childhood and adolescence, rather mostly full of trials & tribulations. Especially during the Venus AD in my Rahu Dasha I had to undergo the most unhappy phase, involving a lot of humiliation while the AD of my exalted mercury was by a big margin the best among the lot...during the transition to the next Jup dasha (who happens to be the LL also) I had to further undergo humiliation in my workplace and at one point even had fleeting thoughts of giving up life...I wonder how could a strong Rahu in the 11th give so much pain...rather I wonder whether Rahu has exchanged results with my Saturn in the 8th house. As for Ketu I am not likely to encounter it's Dasha in this lifetime but the ADs have generally given me a bent to spirituality and detachment to material things. Whereas the Venus ADs have tended to give me pain and humiliation while it's not likely that I may have to face a Venus Dasha in this life..

[Khoo Hock Leong]

Hi Harih

You have to combine both Sonu's and Shilpa's propounded dicta.

Although Shilpa mentioned Rahu standalone is strong if its Nakshatra lord is strong, that only occurs only during Rahu's NON-DASA.

During Rahu's dasa, Rahu becomes like Venus and since Venus is debilitated, Rahu tends not to give good results with the worst being Venus AD.

[ips1283]

rahu in 1 1 house in mithuna rashi.... simha lagna...what will be the results can anyone tell ?

[anilesh47]

Rahu alone in 3rd house, Its lord is exalted placed in ascendent, Rahu is in punarvasu, jupiter's nak. Jupiter is placed in 6th house (here jupiter ruling 8th and 11th house)

What result should be in above case? Can we say rahu is strong? Gives good result?

[Khoo Hock Leong]

Hi Vikram

Rahu is in Jupiter's Nakshatra and Saturn's sign. Rahu is also in its own sign and ruling two trinal houses. It is strong and good (your 5th house is empty).

Jupiter disposits Saturn (a trinal lord) and Rahu (also a trinal lord) and Jupiter rules two Dhana Bhavas.

You can wear a combination of Gemstone of rahu and Jupiter set on one piece. You can set it on silver as that is Jupiter's metal. Place Rahu on top your ascendant and Jupiter at the bottom which is the dispositor and Jupiter sits in the 4th Bhava which is the foundation house for the Ascendant where Rahu is.

Gemstone for Rahu - at least 2 carats of Hessonite
Gemstone for Jupiter : ate least 2 carats of Yellow Sapphire or at least 4 carats of Citrine or at least 3 carats of Yellow Topaz.

More than the weight, make the surface of the gem is large enought to reflect the sunlight.

[Khoo Hock Leong]

Hi Ips

Rahu in Gemini in the 11th house means it is highly auspicious for gains as the other house which Rahu rules is the 7th Bhava which is the 9th from the 11th.

Doing business during the start of Rahu's dasa would be auspicious for you. This I am assuming your 7th Bhava and 11th Bhava are both empty. Other planets therein in these two Bhavas would modify the results accordingly.

Warmest Regards
Hock Leong

[Khoo Hock Leong]

Hi Anilesh

According to the dictum given by Shilpa, when Rahu alone the Nakshatra lord is more important than the sign lord. But Jupiter in the 6th is weak - it is in enemy's sign, rules an Uppachaya and a Dusthana (even though there may be a VPRY as it would have been better if Jupiter is a trinal lord besides ruling the Dushthana then at least there is some luck involved in the "fight" - a Dusthana lord placed in another Dusthana and also Jupiter is a natural benefic and not much of a fighter). 6th is also a cadent Bhava and though an Uppachaya meaning it will grow, it would have been better if it is a natural malefic again for Uppachayas unless Jupiter is in its own sign.

Rahu in Cancer however, is very much dependent on the dispositor ie. the Moon, and Moon exalted in Ascendant is actually quite beneficial for Rahu in Cancer and in its Bhava where it is in its own element (Rahu is the natural ruler for the 3rd Bhava).

Thus I would interpret that the person is strong in dealing with adversity through his intelligence but his fighting spirit to make the best of a situation tends to waver and therefore he lacks steadiness.

Hi Shipaji, KHL et al

Is it true that in some cases Rahu gives results only after a certain age like say in 10th - after 30 years, in 9th after 33 years , in 12 in late life.

In that case if Rahu MD occurs before these ages, what is the result? Does it give the fruits of a well paced planets that disposits rahu? For eg Rahu in 10th in scorpio and mars (its ruler) and budha (nakshatra ruler for jyestha ) both in 9th?

This happened in my life and initially Rahu MD was good but later on it made the life very tumultuous. Also lot of wrong decisions. It may probably be because mars and budha go to eighth in bhavchalit

The Dashas ( and also Yogas) give results in accordance with Desh, Kaal, Patra.
Patra becomes relevantwhen the native is young i.e his social standing then is dependent on parents....so the affects of Yogas and Dashas are within that framework
Because the native has no social standing, married life or earnings of his own.....these things will be a reflection of what the parents are going throuhg

[Khoo Hock Leong]

Hi Vikram

Although Jupiter is not a Yogakaraka, but with a combination it is quite powerful.

Jupiter sits in the 4th of Rahu which is point of vicissitudes, but now if you placed Rahu gemstone on top of Jupiter Gemstone, at least it would stengthen the 4th Bhava which is the house of happiness, stability and foundation. It would also bring in Jupiter's dispositorship of Saturn+Rahu (the latter are trinal lords - Jupiter does not just give its 11th lordship effects, it also exhibits trinal effects by its dispositorship of the two trinal lords Rahu+Saturn). This means your Jupiter stone must be slightly larger than the Rahu stone.

The only drawback with the above recommendation is that Jupiter sits on the 6th of Saturn which is a point of toil and Jupiter's dispositor is Venus which sits on a Dusthana. The latter point is OK because Venus is a Yogakaraka. It is the only former point that is worrisome. BUT then jupiter is the opposite of Saturn in nature and wearing Jupiter's stone would counteract the tediosity of the toil signified by 6th to Saturn.

Wearing gemstones, you can wear different gemstones during different planets' periods to serve to emphasise any goodness brought about by that particular planets' dasa. But you can also wear one throughout that emphasises your personality. Rahu in 1st and Jupiter in 4th is your foundational personality and would not harm your ascendnat whichever planetary period hold sway. Jupiter's rulership of malefic 11th Bhava is counteracted by dispositorship of two trina lords of Saturn+Rahu as explained earlier.

Venus although a Yogakaraka is sitting in a Dusthana. And that is the 6th Bhava which is harmful to the Ascendant. However, wearing a white sapphire or diamond for Venus can serve to enahnce 6th point to Rahu (and 12th to Ketu) as well as Venus good effects on the 6th. But then Venus is in enemy's sign and this somewhat turn the table around towards wearing the Rahu+Jupiter jewel combination.

You may also consider wearing Mercury emerald alone since it has no relationship with your Rahu in Lagna unlike Jupiter. It is a trinal lord sitting on a trinal house. And it is well placed by sign. Its dispositor by Venus is Yogakaraka notwithstanding Venus is sitting in a Dusthana. And it would not clash with the antardasha of Venus which you are having now. And the 9th Bhava serves to bring luck to your Ascendant. Mercury is placed 11th to Saturn, 11th to Rahu (actually 9th to Rahu but 9th is the 11th of the 11th by Bhavat Bhavam principle) both giving you gains in authority and gains in riches. The only drawback it is 8th to Mars which may have some destructive tendency to your well-being.

I think you can buy an emerald as an alterntive wearing during those years when Rahu or Jupiter are transitting badly in your chart (they are slow-moving planets).

Or you may just consider buying emerald alone.

Dear Hock Long,

I'd really really appreciate if you could revert to my queries that seem a little similar to what you've perhaps written to Vikram.

I have a saturn+rahu combination, my lagnesh, venus is placed in a dusthana, i.e. the eighth house, jupiter's the lord of the 3rd and the 11th house.

I'd really appreciate if you could shed some light on my chart esp w.r.t shifting abroad for a scrap venture. I've already gotten a visa to visit the u.s. in connection with the planned new venture.

Kindly shed some light on the same. Any stone recommendations, sir? I'd be obliged if you'd revert.

Vishal.

Dear Khoo,

If we see on other angle, she has benefic planets in 6 and 8. it means she has adhi yoga.

Jupiter in 6th house with sun and mercury. Here sun is malefic, also jupiter is in Mars's (chitra nak) nakshatra and mars is strongly placed in 4th house. Mars as a malefic is very strong in her chart by placement. Mars is the karak of fighting spirit. She tends to waver but at the end (finally) she gets the spirit. her venus is in 8t house. saturn is in fifth house. 5th house is the 3rd to 3rd, it increases vitality power.

Your views are appreciate wherever i m wrong.

Regards
Nilesh

[Khoo Hock Leong]

Hi Anilesh

Are you talking about Vikram? Vikaram has Sun in the 8th which is not a benefic.

Hi khoon iv'e try'd asking this question before but the guy just completely ignored me :l. My question is, When Rahu is in 20 degree Libra in Conjunction with Jupiter Libra in the 25th degree while also being in Conjunction with Venus Libra in the 23rd degree all in the 5th house, Would this be considered a benefic.
