MARRIAGE WHEN?

Grounding note: A male querent had asked me the question about the time period of his marriage. He was already in love affairs with a girl whom he wanted to marry and therefore he asked me about the finalization of his marriage ceremony. Therefore, I have to analyze or resolve the query with the help of the temporary number furnished by the Querent based on the time (date-time-place) of judgment.

Question of the Querent : Marriage – when?

Horary Number : 45 (out of 249).

Date, Time & Place of Judgment : 09-08-2014, 09:25:01 Hrs. (IST), Durgapur (23.30N 87.20E).

Consider the houses 2, 7 and 11 for marriage (2nd increase or decrease in family members; 7th wife or husband, legal tie-up, prime house for marriage; 11th permanent tie-up of friendship).Consider the houses 1, 6 and 10 for separation or divorce (being 12th from 2, 7 and 11 respectively). These houses denote absence of marriage life.

Venus is the chief governor of marriage.

Hints:

If the Cuspal Sublord (CSL) of 7th (Marriage) be signified or in connection with 2, 7 or 11, marriage will take place during the joint period (DBA) of the significators of 2, 7 and 11.

MOON REVEALS THE NATURE OF QUERY

Moon (Sagittarius 29-44-09) is the star of the Sun and sub of Rahu. Planet Moon is the occupant of 8, owner of 3. Starlord Sun is the occupant of 2, owner of 4. Sun is rapt conjoined with Mercury. Mercury is the occupant of 2, owner of 1-2-5. Sublord Rahu is the occupant of 5. Rahu is deposited in sign Virgo (Lord: Mercury) and thus acts as an agent of Mercury. Mercury is the occupant of 2, owner of 1-2-5. Moon signifies and/or in connection with the relevant house(s), hence query or urge is genuine.

CUSPAL ANALYSIS

7th Cusp (Sagittarius 04-53-20): The sublord of 7th cusp Mars is in the star of Rahu and sub of Mercury.

• Planet Mars is the occupant of 5, owner of 6.
• Starlord Rahu is the occupant of 5. Rahu is deposited in sign Virgo (Lord: Mercury) and thus acts as an agent of Mercury. Mercury is the occupant of 2, owner of 1-2-5.
• Sublord Mercury is the occupant of 2, owner of 1-2-5.

✓ 7th CSL Mars signifies 2 & 5 (11th from 7th) and in connection with 2 & 5, hence marriage is promised to the native.

✓ Here 5th CSL Jupiter also signifies 2, 5 (love) 7 & 11 thus love marriage is promised to the native.

Planets signify the houses 2, 7 and 11 in respect to A, B, C, D, E

A = Planets in Occupant’s Stars

B = Occupant of Houses

C = Planets in Owner’s Stars

D = House Owner

E = Planets Conjoined or Aspected (Vedic Aspects) by Significators (A), (B), (C), (D)

Joint-Period Rulers (DBA)

Present Dasha Lord: Sun (from 22-03-2013 to 22-03-2019)

Sun is a fruitful (common) planet; hence Sun Dasha is taken into consideration.

Present Bhukti Lord: Rahu (from 16-05-2014 to 10-04-2015)

Rahu is a weak significator of grade E. But Rahu in horary chart acts an agent of Mercury who is present under the significators of A-B-C-D.

Similarly, in RP Chart Rahu is not present under 5 direct RP’s, but taken as an agent of Mercury who is present under 5 direct RP’s. Hence, Rahu is taken as a fruitful (common) planet. Should we consider Rahu Bhukti? The answer is – No. I will prefer to leave Rahu Bhukti due to the following reasons:

Rahu is the Starlord of 7th CSL Mars. Mars (7th CSL) is under the influence of Saturn (a restricted or delayed planet) as Mars & Saturn are in YUTI in the same sign. Further, Rahu as an agent of Mercury signifies 2 but not deposited in a fruitful sub (Saturn, a restricted or delayed planet and Saturn itself does not signify 2, 7 or 11). Again, Rahu is the star of Mars and Mars is not present under ruling planets. The next bhukti after Rahu is Jupiter (a ruling planet) which is also in the star and sub of the ruling planet.

Next Bhukti Lord: Jupiter (from 10-04-2015 to 27-01-2016)

Jupiter is a fruitful (common) planet as well as a strong ruling planet deposited in a star and sub of other ruling planets. Jupiter signifies 2, 7-11 and is deposited in a fruitful sub of Moon (Moon, being untenanted, aspects to 2nd cusp). Hence, Jupiter Bhukti is taken into consideration.

Now, in the Dasha-Bhukti of Sun-Jupiter (10-04-2015 to 27-01-2016), I will prefer to choose Saturn Anthra.

Anthra Lord: Saturn (from 19-05-2015 to 04-07-2015)

Saturn is a fruitful (common) planet as well as a strong ruling planet deposited in the star and sub of other ruling planets. Saturn is the total significators of 2 and 7 and 11 and Saturn is strongly connected with anthra lord Jupiter (Saturn in the star of Jupiter and Jupiter in the star of Saturn) and also dasha lord Sun (Saturn aspect Sun by its 10th aspect) Hence, Saturn Anthra is taken into consideration.

My Opinion: Marriage is promised during the DBA of Sun-Jupiter-Saturn (from 19-05-2015 to 04-07-2015).

Actual Fact: The native got engaged on 18-01-2015. Date of Marriage will be fixed on 30-05-2015 (DBAS: Sun-Jupiter-Saturn-Mercury).

Learning Fact: Since it is believed in the Bengali tradition and also otherwise in some other communities in India that no auspicious rituals take place in the month of ‘Poush’ as per the Bengali calendar (falling this year from 17th of December 2014 to 15th January 2015) therefore the marriage ceremony could not take place within this period of ‘Poush’ month.

Another important point found in the horary chart was that there was “Punarphoo-Dosha” found in the chart and as such the marriage is indicated to get delayed and as the “Punarphoo-Dosha” has been cancelled (as Moon in the star of Sun) therefore the engagement took place on 18.01.2015 and as the “Transit” is also favouring the engagement on the specified date as mentioned above.

It is an important factor to be noted that, if there is any“Punarphoo-Dosha” in the native’s natal/horary chart (at the time of judgement) and if the same “Punarphoo-Dosha” has cancelled in that chart as well as if Saturn is strongly signifies of 2, 7 & 11 houses then the Saturn is an important factor to be responsible for the fructification of the event related to that particular event during their Dasa-Bhukti-Antara period.
