About Kuja
'Kuja' means 'burning coal' or 'a fair person'. Kuja is identified with Lord Kartikeya - the God of War.
He is the son of Lord Shiva. Kartikeya was born with six heads. He killed the invincible demon Taraka
and released the Devas from Taraka's oppression. These qualities of Kuja depict strength, courage and
the protective quality of Kuja. Thus, Kuja is known as the protector of dharma and the purpose in life,
which each of us follow.
Another notion of Kuja is that 'Ku' stands for 'Earth' and 'Jha' means 'birth'. Hence, Kuja will mean
'the son of Earth'. He is brought up by six Krutika stars resulting with six faces because he is fed by
six star mothers. That is reason why he is also called Shanmuka.
Kuja in the first house - quarrelsome on even minor issues; combative and dominating in relationship.
Kuja in the 2nd house - harsh speech.
Kuja in the 4th house - aggressive emotional nature, which may effect the career-front, with frequent
changes in profession.
Kuja in the 7th house - a lot of energy; differences with family members.
Kuja in the 8th house - early death of the mate.
Kuja in the 12th - financial losses, many enemies and repressed anger.
According to Parasara's Brihat Parasara Hora Shastra, if Kuja is placed in the lagna, 4th, 7th ,8th and
12th houses, without any aspect or conjunction of the benefit planets, then the husband of such a
women certainly have an early death. Hence it is understood that if Kuja has an aspect of a benefit or
is conjunct with a benefit, then there is no dosha.
An exception to this however exists. "If a woman with the widowhood yoga marries a man with a
similar yoga of loss of spouse, then such yoga will get cancelled." Hence the second exception given
by him is that Kuja Dosha is canceled, if both the girl and the boy have Kuja Dosha.
after the age of 28, the effects of Kuja Dosha are reduced.
