Before we discuss some of the rajayogas on your 4th house, you have woken up to a Moon stuck on the 8th house until today 6:24 pm. Depressed by bad company that can cause anxiety, tensions with mother, restlessness in the home environment, damage to property/vehicles if not watchful. Especially 1226h- 1824h when she passes the Gandantha field which is the last navamsa of Scorpio, above adverse indications can manifest if other energies are supportive in your natal chart. She completes the transit of the Gandantha in Sagittarius by midnight..

Thereafter it is nice when she is on the 9th house of fortune thru to Tuesday midnight, on the 10th house of success in career, outer world thru to Friday 1011h, and finally to the 11th house of gain and fulfillment Friday 1011 for rest of the week Saturn to your 3rd house on Tuesday can fill you up with much positive energy, to reach your goals [For raja yoga notes see other signs]

 

Without energy and the will to win life gets dull and dark. And if we cannot direct that energy to proper channels, we over-rate ourselves and get into tight spots which entail conflict and confrontations . When the Sun/Mars/Mercury/Jupiter are clustered in one planetary field of action or house it generally gives valor, wealth, leadership and the downside is the love to roam, restlessness, super charged sensuality and eye problems.

The guy to watch here is Mars who has just got on to a Sarpa Drekkana thru to Aug 4. Be cool with siblings, sublimate all that awesome energy. Your upper limbs, chest can be susceptible to hurt and health problems. And watch Thursday morning when Mercury hits his MB [see box] Saturn in Gemini can make your wallet heavy with those 1000 buck-bills.

GEMINI

The foursome on your 2nd house is very effective for teaching/communication/oratory and for inflow of wealth thru career. The downside here is the presence of the Sun and Mars capable of causing eye problems and also on face and neck. Especially when the Sun passes his MB [see box] on Tuesday and Mars on Sarpa Drekkana [ can cause sickness] thru to Aug 4 in the first phase. Note ruler Mercury on MB Thursday forenoon. Now to the major transit of Saturn to your Lagna on Tuesday thru to Jan 7 @ 0520h before he re-enters Taurus in retrogression.

His duality [owner of 8 and 9 houses] has to be examined well . Being the ruler of 8th house Saturn can cause frustrations/delays/put on hold. Conflicts when he connects with Mars, and hurt/disease when he exchanges the 8th house with Mercury etc. And we can discuss these as we move along with Saturn, the plodder.

 

In real life even the best yogas have their own little flaws or downside. For example the conjunction of Jupiter and Mercury makes a person eloquent, learned, amiable, handsome, wealthy, skilled in performing arts, virtuous, fond of perfumes... the classics say. Note the periods Mercury, and the Sun are on MB this week from the transit box. Be more mindful as Mercury and the Sun throw a separative influence on the 7th house as well . That is about harmony in relationships. Mars is on Sarpa Drekkana [a 10 degree field/segment of a 30 degree sign] thru to Aug 4 and that makes him weak. Does not mean that the Dharma/Karma Raja Yoga gets stalled here. It rolls on at a slower pace.

The best for this week is when the Moon exchanges houses with Mars and Jupiter. Maha Parivarthana Yoga for wealth and status, comforts and fortune and luck. This is thru to Tuesday night except for today 1226h- midnight. Saturn's move to your 12th house can give a surprise yoga . More about Saturn next week.

 

The big move by Saturn to your 11th house has to be understood with your natal Moon, Saturn, the Sun and Mercury's locations in the main. This can better tell us if the partnerships going to be blissful and or yield more wealth and benefits in the next 2 1/2 years. Up to May 26, 2005 to be specific. If the Moon was placed in your 11th house it could be tricky. Saturn being your 6th ruler can give similar results on the 11th as per house correlation.

That's the big picture. Tuesday thru Aug 26 Saturn will be on Thula/Libra Navamsa owned by Venus, a friendly situation. From the 11th house Saturn sees/aspects the Lagna, the 5th and the 8th house. His aspect to Lagna can cause aggressive emotions when he connects with Mars Aug 20-Oct 6 and with Jupiter next year. Yet Aug 20-Oct 6 could also help you to take some vital decisions relating to professional advancement/expansion.

 

So Saturn will be in your 10th house by Tuesday 0840h, and will be on friendly Thula/Libra Navamsa owned by Venus through to Aug 26th evening. For Virgo, Saturn being the 5th ruler has to give more dignity, wealth and luck, shine in public life, success in career, and generosity and spiritual journeys on the good karma side on his sojourn in Gemini.

Those who want to go public check if the natal Moon was located in Aries Gemini, Cancer, Scorpio, Capricorn Aquarius or Pisces. Check also the Navamasa and Dasamsa charts the same way to get the vital link between Jupiter and the Moon. If those are present and the running .This year it will be Aug 3- 22, And all the way to Nov 15. And Dec 5-26. The natal Moon on Gemini can transform a Saturn Return to a powerful yoga if the ashtakavarga of your 10th house, the Moon and Saturn are strong. Same goes for the Pisces Moon and the Kantaka Sani or the square or 90 degree connection between Moon and Saturn.

 

Buddhists believe that no outsider can intervene in the operation of one's Karma. If the past 2 1/2 years produced some traumatic experiences like sickness to mother, distress to children, gloom in the home environment, heath problems, tensions in partnerships [especially since February this year] it was your Saturn with Rahu in your 8th house.

More so if the Moon was connected. But if you were into some intense inner work like prayer/medictation/yoga, you could have made juicy lemonades with the lemons the fate was giving you. When Saturn gets out of the 8th he goes to the 9th house of fortune [if the hostile factors are weak like Saturn Return see Leo] it is period of rebound. . Now the most helpful Saturn on your 9th house can be the rock-like -friend you lean on to. Look up Virgo for the Moon-Jupiter connection, and check my box for Saturn/Moon connection. This week it is Tuesday.

 

Saturn goes to your 8th house every 29 1/2 years and this time it will be on Tuesday morning. May affect your relationships with your siblings and also with your mom and also dad and some if the natal Moon was in Taurus or Gemini. Those whose goals are purely materialistic may not like the Saturn on the 8th scenario. But for those who are into inner work can talk to their Libra buddies, who had Saturn in their 8th house the past 30 months and change.

They will tell you how helpful prayer/meditation and other spiritual activities were. For the research oriented Scorpio, Saturn can help too. Your health: arms, lungs, reproductive area need more care when Saturn goes to your 8th. If Rahu was in 8th house in your natal or Navamsa or Drekkana charts you also have to be very sensitive to the emotional needs of your partner, in addition to be very health and safety conscious.

 

Saturn goes to your 7th house this Tuesday. See Virgo for the essential connection between Jupiter and the Moon and Saturn and Mercury. That is to go public seeking shine/elevation of status in the outer world. Rahu in the 6th helps you to succeed. The Moon in your 12th and that is today until lunch time. But be very safety conscious thru to midnight and again Monday 5-8pm, and generally thru Tuesday midnight. Those having the Moon in Taurus, Gemini and Cancer need to cultivate more awareness.

Especially your health and to maintain the cool and harmony in partnerships. The period up to Aug 26th especially. With Mercury on the 8th house sensitivity in relationships gets priority and also on the work place. Especially Thursday forenoon when he will be on Mrityu Bhaga/MB. For $$$ Venus on PushKara Navamsa /PN can be very supportive Tuesday 1424h-Friday 15:39h.

 

Let's see how most helpful Venus is doing this week before we turn to your ruler Saturn. The work place back-biting and tensions in partnership can surface until 18:45 today. When Venus goes on PN Tuesday afternoon thru to Friday evening it is a good time for successful research work. Now ruler Saturn gets to your 6th house on Tuesday morning. [See Virgo down] This is OK for courage, endurance and ability to fight back when in tight spots. Gives travel too. That is Saturn' s 3rd house aspect thrown on the 8th house.

With Mercury Aug 3-22. Because of the 6th house [owned by Mercury] this period could cause sickness and hurt. With Mars Aug 20- Oct 6 some damage to vehicles and property. And with the Sun Aug 17- Sep 17 fevers, blood problems, kidneys, reproductive area and if running real bad Dashas, hospitalization/surgery.

 

Finally your ruler Saturn is able to move away from Rahu on the 4th house of emotional joy/peace of mind, capital assets, popularity/prestige. Let Rahu be there. According to some Rahu gets exalted up to 20 degrees in Taurus and same for Ketu in Scorpio and both will begin those degrees in about 10 days.

He will be on Libra/Thula Navamsa thru Aug 26th which is nice because she is your most helpful planet. If the Jupiter/Moon connection explained in Virgo is present, expect advancement in career Aug 20-Oct 6 [ Saturn and Mars the 10th lord connection] provided you are running supportive Dashas or Planetary Periods during that time. This week today thru Monday evening is capable of causing disagreements with co-workers. Be more safety conscious this evening thru to Tuesday midnight.

 

When Jupiter is exalted in Kendra or Trikona house the Jyotish classics praise it to the stars, and labels it Hamsa Maha Purusha Yoga. Beautiful body, face and skin, sweet voice like that of a swan, eager to learn or upgrade knowledge, does good to others, blessed with a beautiful partner, long life or Purna Aayu. . And this time it is win/win, most likely. However nothing is perfect, and watch Mercury and Sun on their MB and Mars on Sarpa Drekkana.

These periods are Tuesday 03:27h Wednesday 04:35h for the Sun. Thursday 00:14h-11:53h for Mercury, and thru to Aug 4th for Mars. See transit box for PN transits. Saturn on your 4th if other factors in your natal chart are supportive can make you feel restricted in the home environment and or has the capacity to acquire capital assets away from place of birth.
