This native has Saturn in Libra, Ketu in Sagittarius aspected by the Sun in Gemini and Jupiter in Aquarius. So he will have a high Government “job. Mars is in Pisces. This shows financil gains through lands. Then again about 30-31 he will get money through his sister or wife. He will be married among bis own relations since Venus is in his own house. Jupiter retrograde aspecting Capricorn shows that the native’s mother had trouble when he was young and he himself had to overcome great difficulties, with the help of relations. The aspect on Capricorn by Mercury, who is posited next to the Sun, indicates his father to have come into possession of a house and to have overcome his troubles too. As there are no planets behind Jupiter except Ketu, the native had no elder brothers and so he was the eldest born. The father would have been forced to marry a girl whom he did not approve. It was a forced marriage as the Sun is conjunct Rahu. The native will have brothers and sisters. The native’s father had a lot of troubles, when young, caused by his cousins. The father was greatly devoted to God and was learned in Vedas and Puranas (ancient religious lore). Mars in Pisces transits hll” own place Aries which is also exaltation point for the Sun. As the next house Taurus is occupied by Venus, the native amassed wealth when his sisters were in great trouble. Mars position in the 2nd to Jupiter makes the native dogged in nature and one who creates tense situations for making money. While Rahu comes to gobble up Venus, Mars helps him and enables him to avail of this opportunity to amass wealth. In his 40-41st year, the native comes into possession of an old house, when Jupiter during his fourth round transits Mercury. Rahu has just passed away from Mercury. During the 5th round before Jupiter leaves Cancer the native’s wife will pass away. When Jupiter transits Sagittarius he will retire from service and suffer from coughs, colds and piles.
The djsciple wanted to know why the native would suffer from cough and the Master answered as follows:
In the previous birth the native gave a blow to a calf which had come to graze in his fields and as a result it died. Hence, the native will suffer from suffocating cough as the calf suffered. This could be remedied by feeding Brahmins and giving away ‘!cow in charity or visiting Gokarna (a religious place). But, all that will not appeal to the native.
The disciple wanted to know how this could be read from the chart. The Master says that Jupiter’s retrogression to Capricorn which is exaltation point for Mars, shows that the native was born as a Kshatriya in the previous birth. Being in Aquarius Jupiter’s retrogression to Capricorn shows the cow and calf, Mars and Pisces indicate horns and Ketu in Sagittarius show the tail. Mercury’s aspect to Capricorn indicates green fields. Jupiter’s placement Between Mars and Saturn indicates the dilemma for the man when he acted rashly and killed the calf.
The native will face trouble at 53 through his wife’s ailment and will go to a new place and begin to earn and will live upto 68-70 age. More details can be had from his son’s chart which will be discussed later.
