those things that attract you, such as a happy family life and wealth.

You are one of those people who are independently intelligent. You like to do what
you want and not be under the control or direction of others. You are truly
independent and therefore can give up friends or homes very easily. You are alot like
the independent lion who goes where he likes and does what he likes, without
receiving much trouble from anyone. You don't like it when people try to control or
"cage" you.

1
Your wisdom and intellect may say different things, and you are faced with the

spouse. This combination may have more telling effects on the marital life than on

Both, your first and your fifth Lord are aspecting the fifth house, which creates a
weak Raja Yoga effect only by aspect.

Both, the first and the tenth Lord are occupying your tenth house, creating Raja
Yoga. A very good placement for career. You tend to be ambitious, motivated and
goal oriented, usually with success.

Bold and persevering. Liked by your superiors. Cruel and wicked at times. May

A good fifth house blesses your offspring, especially your first child and generally
your relationships with children, according to the standard Indian interpretation of
these placements known as "Suputra Yogas", or combinations that make for an
"auspicious son". It also speaks to overall ability and success in the process of
creation and off-springing quality things in life.

You are cunning and may suffer humiliation from the opposite sex.

Witty and inclined to commercial business. An enterprising type.

When you really try to exert yourself, you go for something strongly and you find
some restriction comes and holds you back. Therefore, gradually, throughout life,
you learn to be more exact and at least appear cooler in achieving your ends.
Otherwise, you alert and excite those who might come to restrict you.

This position is the most outstanding position for Moon, provided Sun is not in
conjunction. You attain a high education and knowledge in various branches of
sciences with your own efforts. Mostly, persons born in 12 and 13.20 degrees of
Ashvini are officers or doctors or persons holding very high position in government.
Doctors born in this part of Ashvini Nakshatra become successful in the medical
field. The same is the result, when the Ascendant falls in 4th part of Ashvini, even if
the Moon is positioned elsewhere. There might be a scar or mark on the head or
face.

This combination is of some advantage to your career and rise in life and your
reputation.

3
There's the possibility of some fairly intense events in life which seem rather drastic
or possibly dangerous. Many people have this Yoga though, and they're just fine, but
due to their openness towards it, they might at times face chaotic or scary
circumstances. Look to the periods of the 1st and 8th Lords and planets triggering
them.

The seventh Lord occupies your twelfth house and the ninth Lord is aspecting it.
This creates a Raja Yoga, almost as strong as if both Lords were occupying it and
has a promoting effect on twelfth house matters.

The primary influence on your life will be a priest of like qualities.

Some undesirable difficulties are likely to come in the Bhuktis and Antardashas of
the Lord of your first house and the malefics that affect it, which are either the sixth
or twelfth Lord, and a malefic aspect from some planet. These difficulties will be
uncomfortable to deal with, but may very well move by in their course of time.

The Ascendant Lord, Venus or Jupiter are located in a Kendra, which will bless your
overall live to some degree. To have at least one good angular placement is of
advantage for material life in general. If all three planets are in Kendras, then the
Yoga would have an accordingly more strong and powerful effect. Fortune, wealth
and other material blessings would be almost guaranteed throughout life.

The Lords of your fourth and fifth houses are creating a Raja Yoga by aspecting the
seventh house. The fourth house is the sensitive and private Angle house of
emotions. The fortunate fifth house is the other Trine besides the ninth, representing
creativity, offspring and the good Karma of your past life. Both planets aspect the
seventh house, which is not as powerful as if they would occupy it, but still
beneficial for all seventh house matters.

The Lords of your fourth and fifth houses are creating a Raja Yoga by aspecting the
third house. The fourth house is the sensitive and private Angle house of emotions.
The fortunate fifth house is the other Trine besides the ninth, representing creativity,
offspring and the good Karma of your past life. Both planets aspect the third house,
which is not as powerful as if they would occupy it, but still beneficial for all third
house matters.

The Moon, the Sun and Mars are located in trines from each other, which can
manifest as a powerful planetary influence for bestowing material opulence, good
intelligence, longevity and overcoming obstacles in life.

The first Lord occupies your tenth house and the fourth Lord is aspecting it, thus
forming Raja Yoga. However this has a weaker effect than in the case of both planets
occupying a house.

The fourth Lord occupies your first house and the first Lord is aspecting it, thus
forming Raja Yoga. However this has a weaker effect than in the case of both planets
occupying a house.

The ninth Lord occupies your sixth house and the seventh Lord is aspecting it. This
creates a Raja Yoga, almost as strong as if both Lords were occupying it and has a
promoting effect on sixth house matters.

Your Signs

You who has Virgo in the eleventh house attains much wealth, especially as a result
of your intellectual qualities. You are often burdened with many social and family
responsibilities; your income is unstable, and your obligations often exceed your
cash inflow. You will face strenuous circumstances.

With Leo in the tenth house you may be subject to delusions. This position
sometimes leads to the performance of undesirable or criminal acts. An element of
social disregard is inherent.

Vindictive by nature and sensitive to criticism, you can be very alert and
quarrelsome. You seem to take special delight in verbally abusing your friends.
Ordinarily, you are lucky in marriage, but your sex life remains undisciplined. Your
children could be famous and your friends are eminent, but you are unable to
establish an enduring relationship with them. You are ignorant of your own long
term interests. Immediate gratification is more important to you than permanent
gain. Your life in general tends to be a bag of mixed achievement and frustration.
Your health may suffer from abuse and irregularity of habit. Secrecy in your life is a
very significant issue: Secret alliances, secret pangs and sufferings, secret hiding
places, secret enemies, secret friends and secret undertakings. Drug addiction,
smuggling, litigation and participation in cruel deeds are not uncommon under this
sign. In many ways you are your own worst enemy. You may have fleshy and broad
limbs, (as though) perfected by exercising, be clever, crooked in innate disposition,
valorous, attached to your mother, generous, will have majestic and tawny eyes, a
prominent chest, a sunken belly, a depressed nose, are adventurous, firm, fierce,

Aries occupying the sixth house produces egotism tinged with selfishness when the
house is agitated by malefic planetary influences. Mean behavior in social
relationships is not necessarily the expression of this influence, but the urge to rise
higher in society often creates many enemies. You may be widely disliked, though
the hostility of others is not always expressed outwardly.

Moon

You will be active, dynamic, aggressive and desire control. Your Moon sign indicates
that you can be bold, generous, wealthy, grateful, positive, self-reliant, have good
imagination, and are changeable, restless, impulsive, enterprising. You may be the
director of a company. You may have a fear of water and experience trouble with the
opposite sex. You may have multiple intimate partners. You will have a golden
colored body and are endowed with lasting wealth, less brothers and sisters, are
valorous, self-respected, auspicious, prosperous, libidinous, have weak legs, little
hair, are fickle minded, will strive for honor as your wealth, may have sons rather
than daughters, are friendly, wounded on the head, and won over by the female
energy.

With the Moon in the sixth house, you are dogged with persistent difficulties. Often
you are endangered and may get mixed up with criminals and anti-social elements;
you suffer great financial difficulties and may even be involved in public litigation.
Your physical health may not be strong, but there will be great mental expansion,
intellectual development and moral stamina. Even during periods of acute physical
and financial difficulty you will succeed in securing help from providential sources.
You will contribute to social progress and command great respectability, but
personally you will have much to complain about. You are intelligent and have an
overwhelming influence against the most powerful enemies. However strong they
may be, ultimately they surrender to you. Every repeated attack they make happens
to be a misfire. You may not be devoted to your mother or indifferent to her. The
sixth house denotes enemies, injuries, accidents, diseases, afflictions, maternal
uncles, cousins, servants, loss of wealth, calamities through the opposite sex, suits
and debts, intimidation and apprehension from enemy. You are delicate, have a poor
appetite, your passions are subdued, You tend to be easily excited, lazy and inactive.
You may be short-lived, dull, be of uncertain health and suffer loss of appetite or feel
slighted. You have a sharp vision, are brave and bold, cruel and unkind, have no
progeny, are strong but lean, have strong desires but can not pro-create. Enemy sign
cause more enemies; If the Moon is in its depression sign Scorpio, it can cause a
melancholic nature, you may remain sick and ailing. You may suffer diseases of the
stomach. Note: Whatever be the valor of enemies, you will always conquer them.
They will not raise their heads again before you. You may be emaciated, miserly and
unfruitful, and will not have much sexual appetite. Your maternal uncle will be
separated from children or will have only daughters.

Those born in Ashvini Nakshatra will have a beautiful countenance. The eyes will be
bright and large, the forehead broad and the nose little bigger. You may appear to be
very calm and quiet, but capable of getting your work done unnoticed by others. You
are very stubborn in decision. This stubbornness is more predominant in the case of
a person born during the period from April 14th to April 28th, when the Sun will be
transiting your exaltation place in Ashvini and from October 14th to October 28th,
when the Sun will be transiting your debilitation place in Swati. There is a saying
that even Yama, the god of death, cannot change your adamant attitude. Those born
in Ashvini of other months will have stubbornness in a lesser degree. You will
remain faithful to those who love you and will not hesitate to sacrifice anything for
such persons. Ashvini born is the best friend in need, provided others understand
them. You keep your patience even at the time of greatest peril. But it will be a
hurricane task to console you when you go berserk. You are the best adviser to
persons in agony, but you deeply resent and fear criticism, see suggestions from
others as a frightening attempt at manipulation. You take your own time to do any
work. Even so, your actions may be slow but well thought. You will not jump on any
matter without examining pros and cons of each item of work. You cannot be easily
influenced. Once you carry out an action or work, whether it is good or bad, right or
wrong, you will stick to what you have done, come what may. You are a firm believer
of God, but there is no room for religious or other sentiments. You are orthodox but
in a new style i.e., you believe in modernization of orthodox method and belief. Even
though you are quite intelligent, at times you make mountains of even small

6
matters. This leads to a lack of mental peace and a desperate sort of mood. You are
always interested in keeping the entire surroundings neat and clean. If the birth is
in between 2 degree to 3 degree of Ashvini, you are very much arrogant for nothing.
You may be a deceit and a smuggler. If all other combinations are good, you may
have wealth but cannot enjoy it. You will bring bad name to the family. You are jack
of all trades. You are generally fond of music and interested in literary pursuit.
Periods up to your 30th years of age will be full of struggle. You have to face
obstacles even for small matters. From the 30th year, there will be steady and
continuous progress which will continue up to 55 years of age. One of the
predominant features noticed is that you are very stingy, but your expenditures will
be more than your income, due mainly to your pomp and show. You are inclined to
meet your desires and needs at any cost. You love your family in entire sincerity.
However, you are subjected to hatred by your own family members due to your
adamant behavior. Affection that was expected and the care that was required,
cannot be derived from your father. In other words, you and your siblings will be
neglected by your father. Whatever help you may derive is only from the side of your
maternal uncle. Maximum possible help will come from those who are outside the
family circle. Normally marriage takes place between 26 to 30 years of age. There will
be more sons than daughters. Your health will generally be good. However if the
birth is between 2 degree and 3 degree of Ashvini, your health will be poor. You are
prone to migraine headache, heart trouble, etc. You must follow the remedial
measures mentioned at the end of this chapter.

industry very successfully and profitably. Your mother's ailments cause you
constant worry. You might feel remorseful due to separation from partner or friend.
You attain success, favor and reputation through hard work. Your parents suffer
and your spouse and children cause anxiety; you tend to be friendless, dissipated
and bold. It may be observed that except for professional and vocational success,
there is no relieving feature in your life. With this placement you are blessed with
wealth and jewels, education, honor, success, valor, love for music and art, talent,
kindness and generosity. This placement denotes service to saints, high moral
standards, power, authority, trust, frugality and firmness. You gain fame through
great learning and are able to accumulate wealth. When the Sun reaches the height
at noon, human activities are at height. Likewise, when you are in the Zenith in the
horoscope of birth (i.e. on the 10th cusp), one is likely to reach enviable heights in
life. You were born at such a time, and that is somewhat rare. You are intelligent,
rich, strong and will be endowed with conveyances, relatives and children. You will
succeed in your undertakings, be valorous, unconquerable and great. At times you
will be separated from your near and dear ones. Your mother will contract many
kinds of illnesses. You will be wealthy, happy with regard to your father, be very
learned, famous, strong, pure, liberal and happy. You will be interested in music and

Maraka to maternal uncle. Your jobs without much effort are spontaneously

Mercury

Your thinking may become negative or worrisome.

You like independence and freedom, but at the same time you see the dark side of
things. So the mix of these two makes you the type of thinker that you are. You want
to be free and do what you like, but restrictions are felt and this causes some split in
your mental personality. The solution is to accept both your drive and the
restrictions in life, and in such a way make gradual progress towards your aims.

have to use your brains to keep your independence. Also your intelligence may

reality when necessary. Psychologically, you are so independent that you regard
yourself as a leader and maintain a very healthy sense of dignity in your personal
deportment. You suffer sorrow from elder brother if Jupiter is in the 11th. Jupiter in
the 11th is very good for overall gains in life, and fulfillment of desires. You are alert,
mindful, and can serve others well. You shoulder the responsibility of your father
and are blessed with 5 children (take that lightly). Wealth is for others, and not for

Venus

You will have self acquired property. You will be renowned and courageous, and will
be a favorite of important personalities. Due to such association, most of your
desires can be fulfilled.

When Venus occupies this sign, you become very luxury loving. You marry into a
good family but are unable to maintain a cordial relation with your spouse.

Venus produces a material impulse. It leads you towards sensual gratification and
involvement in unethical relationships which bind the soul strongly in chains of
materialization. One may remember that Venus is the advisor to the demons who
command the anti-devic (godly) forces. The advice given by Venus can lead you to
adopt bad actions which will require scores of lives to release the soul from bondage.
These activities are produced by passion, lustful intentions, psychologically
acquisitive tendencies, and ritualistic or overly formal religious observances. These
tendencies are greatly accentuated when Venus occupies the twelfth house, which
can finally fix you in your pleasant sleep (of illusion) and in the enjoyment of a
comfortable couch (karmic bondage). You are successful in service but interested in
independent business. This placement denotes mental restlessness and little
financial gain. You are ethical and value affection, but are incapable of giving
pleasure. You can be a successful poet, writer, painter, singer, dancer etc. You
sometimes earn money. Have your excess bile checked. You find pleasure on the
play field or in noble deeds, and spend your wealth on religious, charitable and
public welfare activities. Loss of virtue and reputation is indicated. Your friends turn
enemies and there is strife with friends and people in general. You are phlegmatic
and sensual, and may gain wealth, but spend it every day. Expenditure is heavy and
receipt is low. You can be ruinous to relatives, and may be lewd-minded and poor.
You are extravagant, and there is discord with friends and seniors. You have the
reputation of a liar and are unpopular amongst relatives. Sicknesses and ailments
10
may come. You may be infidel, unkind, debauch and might have a gross body. You
get pleasure through own spouse, and are prosperous and impressive. You tend to
be inert, happy, ugly, characterless, vile, eat a purified diet, and are skilled in
amorous sport. You were sick in childhood, and healthy now, but cruel in youth,
weak, gloomy and miserly. You have perverse tendencies. This Venus indicates a
love for romance and adventure, and a desire to unravel the mysteries of nature,
secret arts, medicine, and chemistry. You get pleasure and gain through animals,
ignoble jobs, and charitable institutions. You love loneliness. This Venus indicates
that you will be saving money always.

Unsullied relations with the opposite sex.

This placement gives rise to fame and affluence.

The spouse is attractive and charming.

Pleasure through marriage and progeny; fond of good attire, strong, no job is
difficult, much traveling, protective, devoted to learned and spiritual persons,
cultured taste, popular, charming and of good nature.

Saturn

You are inclined to cruelty and harming others and may be a leader of thieves
(smugglers, tax-evaders, black marketers). You are fond of the opposite sex and
intoxication. Be careful of fevers, wounds and accidents. However, on the positive
side, you might be famous, self reliant, bold, and a mining engineer.

This placement is very troublesome, causing ruin. Always ailing, miserly, and crafty.
Dull, sensual, mean, bald, and lean. Urticaria, phlegmatic, disabled in extremities,
earache, emaciated, gloomy, foolish, pallid and colorless. Head injury, concentric,
short-living. (This is the direction that Saturn in the Ascendant has a tendency to
push towards, but these are not necessarily predictions in the literal sense.) Has
plenty of wealth and unabaded greed. Is unhappy, crude, bilious and jealous.
Poisonous glance and mental agony. Regrets disputes, destroys the strongest of
enemies, but is dissatisfied. Perturbed, angry, Saturn-like looks, jealous of other's
prosperity and a victim of various ailments. Sickly, sexy, various ailments in
childhood, lazy.

by retirement time. Authoritative. One marriage. Few, if any sons, but several
daughters.

others, danger from poison or arms. Many losses and ill health, interest in geology
and chemistry. Gains through hard work.

Colds, strictures, obstructions, bones and urinary troubles. Polite and captivating,
tactful.

A person of good nature.

Rahu

Difficult or late marriage, much displeasure and unhappiness thereafter. Driven to

debauchery. Loss of wealth. Bilious. Otherwise you are mild, gentle, dignified, fair.
Intellectual giant. Idealistic, successful, leading a life of luxury and comfort.

Rahu in the twelfth house of redemption makes the physical life difficult and upsets
all established order. The expected course of life is not followed and you are forced to
adopt a way of life in which there is much suffering, physical debility and
psychological helplessness. Your movement is restricted, and mental anguish often
becomes acute. But the ordeals of life caused by Rahu provide you with the celestial
nectar. After a big psychological purging, you receive a spiritual bath and are
anointed into the secret mysteries of life. From the material standpoint, Rahu in the
11
 twelfth house is considered inauspicious, suggesting that the purging operation
manifests through immoral acts and unfortunate events. In the ordeal of the
spiritual path, such difficulties are necessary. Rahu functions as a karmic agent,
producing trials so that the latent spirituality which is the true influence of the
twelfth house may emerge. You are miserable, and however hard you may work, you
do not get any success or gain, rather suffer losses, but ultimately you succeed in
your desires and ambitions. You are the friend of the wicked and knave and enemy
of the good and noble. You are very humble. You have sharp pain in ribs and suffer
from acute bilious pain in the chest and heart. With best effort you can not modify
your early life, but the latter part is most fruitful. You are quarrelsome, idle, a
debtor, cunning, immodest, rich, benevolent, and may suffer from ailment of the
eyes, a wound in the feet, and a slur on the family. You waste away your time and
energy, but you can meet your demand if you stay in one place. Much traveling and
separation from spouse and family are indicated. You may be ugly and shabby.
Beware of being robbed by lowly tribals. You might be separated from your maternal
uncle. You feel repentant after losing temper. You are inert, weak, hostile to
relatives, and tend to cheat and ill-spend money. You are very handsome, and
prosperous but suffer from opthalmia or iritis. You have few sons and troubles and
punishment are indicated . This Rahu denotes gain through social affairs, and is
good for spiritualism. Your birth may have been unnatural.

Ketu

Ketu in this position affects the mental principle and enables you to develop the
powers of abstract thinking. Deeper levels of contemplation, often leading to the
higher realms where one solves the abstruse problems of one's inner life, may result
from such a combination. Under this planetary influence you may achieve a
remarkable conceptualization of abstract principles and a formulation of universal
laws, but the problems of life are likely to mar your thinking. The final days are often
sorrowful, full of physical suffering and a realization of the futility of human
endeavor. You experience enormous difficulties in life, and considerable humiliation
during major periods of your earthly existence. It denotes discomfiture and
disillusionment through maternal uncle and destruction of enemies. You might get
some land-related wealth, but stay a pauper anyway. You have sound health and
recover soon, if there is any ailment. You get little gain, success and pleasure from
the maternal in-laws. You possess animals or the means of business, or
conveyances. You tend to be free from sickness, worry and wealth. You are
successful in most heated debates and discussions. You are dear to relatives, large-
hearted, skilled, reputed, and receive honor and fame through knowledge. Some
financial gain is indicated. You are firm, a high officer, and enjoy expediency.
Trouble in teeth and lips are indicated and you may suffer from physical affliction.
You might have unfaithful servants and at time experience losses through small
animals; beware of danger from insects, reptiles or animals.

Ketu is often destructive. The karmic past is so agitated that it may bring an
infamous fall and great humiliation. In spite of power and possessions, there will
always be an uncertainty or sense of unreality about you which will foil efforts to
stabilize your position.

First Family

This placement is not good for the father or your relationship with him, depending
on other factors in the chart.

Physical felicity somewhat stripped away.

12
 Your overall health and well-being is helped and increased. This kind of general,
positive placement removes other negative forces in your chart.

Career/Work

and Sun, occupy a fortunate house; you are good at calculations and clear and
effective at dealings with facts and figures.

This may be a person of thin and tall body, earning money by their own efforts,
serving others, and of angry and aggressive temperament. They like to perform and
show their strengths. May become an adept in music and acting. In playing the role

in career. They may have a wealthy child. Will have gains of wealth through his sons
or his brothers or a noble person.

externally, and feeling differently internally.

Your children may become very wealthy and fortunate. You will be very powerful, do
well and will be a friend of highly paced people. You are intelligent and educated,
and will have many people who listen to your advice.

Your intellect and energy have teamed up in this life. You are not the kind of person
who studies without acting, rather what you think deep inside, flows out into your
actual activities. This is very good for such activities as sports and other
engagements in life, which require good thinking and are joined with quick
deliberate actions. Doctors benefit from this combination, as do other professions,
where the person must think and act on their feet.

Your profession may be looked down upon. You are in service to others, and at times
you may lose work and be poor.
