In this chart, Mercury is in conjunction with Ketu. The native will be well read and attain great position, but the progress will be retarded as Saturn is posited in the same sign. He will be a religious teacher as well He will have brothers and sisters. A joint worker will be a friend of the native.
The disciple asks whether in view of the conjunction of Mars and the Sun the native will ever be married.
The Master answers that there is a special Yoga here. Here Mars is posited in the sign of Venus. So Venus represents the partner for this native. The Sun is debilitated and is conjunct Mars. With Venus in Leo the Sun’s own place, he will elope with some one’s wife and will have a child by her. But, he will try to convince the husband that it is his child and gains some thing by going to a court of law. The presence of the Moon between the Sun and Venus indicates the whole affairs to be a planned one of seduction and duping the husband of the woman. The Moon’s presence in the second house to Venus indicates the progeny of the lover.
The disciple says why the native did not have marital happiness and why he had to go to a Court of Law. The Master says it is the result of sins committed in a previous birth when he eloped with a woman coming from a rich family and after having killed a child. The woman could not bear the shock and ended her life by drowning herself in a well, but before that she cursed the man. The result was this troubled life. The trouble could have been avoided by propitiating the Almighty and giving clothing to girls aged below 12 and worshiping them. The native will live upto an age of 74.
