Marriage and Ashtakvarga

Marriage and Ashtakvarga Great use of Ashtakvarga can be made of in ensuring success in the married life. However normal astrological principles in ensuring a happy married life should not be ignored. For a happy married life following factors are necessary: 1. Lagna / Lagna lord and Seventh lord should be strong. 2. Venus should be well placed in the horoscope. It should not be debilitated, combust , in an enemy sign or in 6 ,8 and 12 & It should not be in Pap Kartari Yoga 3. Venus should not be afflicted by Mars, Rahu or Saturn. This destroys the harmony in married life. 4. Venus should not be in the beginning or end of the sign. 5. Darakarka and Up-pada should be well placed. 6. Lagna lord and 7th lord should not be in 6, 8, or 12 from each other. 7. 2nd house of Kutumbha and 4th house of Sukhistan should not be afflicted. 8. Affliction by Mars disturbs married life. 9. Saturn and Mercury, two impotent planets should not afflict 7th house / 7th lord. In Ashtakvarga some more principles are stated in classical books. Some rules given in the classical books about a happy married life are as follows a).If the wife comes from the direction represented by the rashi having the maximum number of bindus in Venus BAV then the married life is a happy one. b).Husband and wife will love each other when in the 7th from Venus in his own ashtakvarga a bindu has been contributed by a planet that happens to own one’s birth star or its trines. If Rahu and Ketu happen to be the rulers of birth nakshtras, the planets Saturn and Mars should be substituted on the analogy Dictum Sanivad Rahu. Wife/ Husband should be from a direction represented by the sign having maximum number of bindus in the Ashtakvarga of Venus. Unhappiness will result if wife/husband is from the direction having least number of bindus. When one of the bindus in the 7th from Venus is contributed by lord of birth nakshatra or its trines, husband and wife will love each other. Saturn should be taken for Rahu and Mars for Ketu.

Match Making Choose a partner whose Moon sign or Lagna corresponds to signs having maximum number of bindus in native’s horoscope. ii) See in whose kakshaya Moon of the native is posited. Supposing it is in the kakshaya of Jupiter. Then choose a partner from one of those Moon signs in which Jupiter has contributed a bindu. Nehru’s Moon is of degrees 17, 51 minute. Hence it is in kakshaya of Venus. In Moon Parstharchakar (page 17) Venus has contributed bindus in the signs, Aries, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Sagittarius, Capricorn and Aquarius. Partner can be chosen who has Moon in any one of these signs. 3. Number of brothers and sisters of mother can be found from bindus in fourth from Moon in the ashtakvarga of Moon. Male planets give brother while female planets give sisters. 4. Find out nakshatra in which 8th lord from Moon is located. The transit of Moon over this nakshatra is not good for mental/physical health.
