"Impact of Ascending Signs : Gemini"

LUCKY STONE: Emerald

LUCKY NUMBER: 8

Gemini is an airy sign ruled by Mercury, the significator of communication and confidence. These factors with fairly strong Sun render the people born in Gemini ascendant with good power of speech and communication. They have an energetic nature and are always looking for change, interchange, motion and invention. If the mind is turned inwards, the native has the ability to progress far in the spiritual field. If Gemini rises as the ascendant, the Ishta Devata would be mother divine, Goddess Lakshmi. This sign rules ears, lower neck, shoulders, arms, hands, respiratory and nervous systems, bronchial tubes, shoulder and collar bones, bones of arms and hands. As both the ascendant and the sixth house do not contain a mooltrikona sign the Sun, the significator for vitality, is considered as the prime determinant of health for the people born in Gemini ascendant. When the Sun is fairly strong or well placed, they enjoy good health. The people born in Gemini ascendant have a sickly constitution and suffer from hypertension, headaches, congestion and respiratory diseases, asthma, imbalances in the nervous system, depression resulting in partial paralysis, stammering, shoulder pain, etc. in the Sun is weak and afflicted.

Gemini is a dual, positive, tamasic, tri-dosha i.e. vata, pitta and kapha, male, talkative, barren and biped sign and gives an ambitious nature with imaginative ideas. They usually love knowledge and like much movement, change and initiative. Depending on the influences on the ascendant, the sign Gemini usually renders their natives with a sharp intellect and conscious mind, spontaneous, adaptable, analytical, educated, learned, helpful, with teaching abilities, intense sense of humor, wit and imagination or talkative, nervous, restless, agitated and indecisive. The people born in Gemini ascendant are persuasive, communicative and show diplomacy and tactfulness in their approach.

There are less hurdles and setbacks in life, as Rahu and Ketu are the only functional malefic planets. The Moon, the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn and Mars are functional benefic planets for the people born in Gemini ascendant. The Moon and Saturn act as Sun-like planets. Saturn's transit is not inauspicious in any of the benefic houses and natal Mars in the first, second, fourth, seventh, eighth or twelfth house does not make them Manglik. The strong impact of the Sun with the ascendant, the tenth house, second house or fourth house, makes their role in life significant. The weak position of Mercury in the nativity, however, gives lack of persistence, confidence and patience. This is the direct result of the nervous pressure build-up due to weakness and/or affliction to Mercury.

A powerful, unafflicted and properly placed Moon blesses the people born in Gemini ascendant with good status, reputation, healthy living and happy family life, while a debilitated Moon causes lack of marital harmony and gives rise to disputes. A strong Sun makes one an orator, leader, an author and a courageous person. Mercury's strength works as an asset. Mercury, whose mooltrikona sign falls in the fourth house, is an anchor sheet of life for the people born in Gemini ascendant because the fourth house has dynamic configurations. In infancy, it rules in particular the happiness from mother. In childhood, it rules education. In the grown-up stage of life, it rules assets, marital harmony, vehicles and comforts in life. Strong Mercury, being lord of the fourth house of people born in Gemini ascendant blesses the dynamic configurations of the fourth house while a weak and afflicted Mercury, ruins/disturbs the significations of the fourth house in particular. The mooltrikona sign of Venus falls in the fifth house ruling progeny, intelligence and emotions. The strength of Venus in the chart is fully representative of the significations of charm, emotions, intelligence and progeny matters of people born in Gemini ascendant. Although the scenario is dependent upon the overall configurations of the chart and operating major periods of planets, the strength of individual planets does signify trends in life to a large extent. The mooltrikona sign of Jupiter falls in the seventh house. Generally, the marital life of people born in Gemini ascendant is comparatively more successful if the Moon, Mercury and Jupiter are not afflicted. Saturn's mooltrikona sign is in the ninth house. That explains the reason why the parents of people born in Gemini ascendant are generally not very rich and affluent. Mars has its mooltrikona sign in the eleventh house indicating sizeable income, coming out of authoritative posts in case Mars is strong in the nativity. In the case of matters signified by houses containing non-mooltrikona signs of planets, suffering and/or tragic happenings only take place if one or both of the functional malefic planets, Rahu and Ketu, exert their close influence on the most effective points of the said houses, and the significators of these houses are weak.

An exalted and strong Sun blesses people born in Gemini ascendant with enormous courage, younger brothers, government positions, servants, leadership qualities and good communicative power. An exalted and otherwise “strong” Moon takes them to foreign lands where they shine well if other planets are supportive. An exalted and otherwise “strong” Mars blesses them with good financial gains, authority and both elder and younger brothers. An exalted and strong Mercury blesses them with sharp intellect, affluent parents, good assets and business acumen. An exalted and strong Jupiter blesses them with good status in foreign lands and spouse from a well-placed family. An exalted and strong Venus blesses them with sharp intellect, gains through investments and happiness through progeny, affluent spouse, emotional happiness and creativity. An exalted and strong Saturn blesses them with good fortune, affluent parents and interest in spirituality. Similarly, are to be read the results of the planets when they are in their signs of debilitation causing deterioration in the aspects signified by the weak planets. However, the significations likely to be promoted when the planets are exalted get a setback when the concerned planets are weak.

The close affliction of Ketu to a weak Mars makes the native vulnerable to serious health problems if the Sun, too, is weak. The close conjunction/aspect of Ketu to Mercury makes one vulnerable to paralysis and nervous breakdown. The close affliction of Ketu to the Sun causes sufferings on account of progeny matters, business ventures and marital problems to female natives. The close affliction of Ketu to the Moon robs the native of the peace in relationships and causes setbacks in property matters. The close affliction of Ketu to Jupiter gives setbacks in married life and curtails the longevity of the relationships. The close affliction of Ketu to Venus causes setbacks in married life, renal problems and serious problems to the children. The close affliction of Ketu to Saturn causes setbacks in life and health problems pertaining to joints and blood impurities.

Unfavorable stones

Weak and afflicted planets Effects

SUN     Loss of courage and vitality, weak heart, trouble to younger brothers, lack of communication skills.  

MOON    Loss of wealth and reputation, trouble to mother and wife, loss of mental peace, disturbed marital life.

MARS     Insufficient income, weak health, trouble to brothers, loss of authority.

MERCURY    Trouble to parents, obstruction in education, difficulty and delay in acquiring assets, nervous pressure.

JUPITER    Delay in or disturbed marriage, trouble on account of male progeny, selfishness, indiscipline, loss of wealth, diabetes.

VENUS     Loss of wife, loss of children, loss of comforts, renal diseases, loss of  intelligence.

SATURN     Trouble to father, setbacks in life, weak body structures, struggle-filled  life.

Depending upon the strength of Mercury ruling education, the Moon being prime determinant for profession and the Sun ruling entrepreneurial nature and being general significator for success in profession, people born in Gemini ascendant become accountants, auditors, advisory roles, authors, writers, communicators, businessmen, computer programmers, engineers, experts in analytical work, intellectuals, journalists, lawyers, poets, publishers, salesmen, secretaries, software engineers, state services, etc. The influence of other planets on the tenth, first or second houses changes the professional pursuits.

Every year during the months of November and December when transit Mercury, Venus and the Sun generally transit the sign Scorpio the native becomes vulnerable to health problems, disputes and financial constraints. Similarly, the transit planets in Capricorn cause obstructions while the transit planets in the sign Taurus cause additional expenses and problems in journeys/distant places.

When the slow moving planets Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu transit in the sign Scorpio, they make the persons born in Gemini ascendant vulnerable to health problems, disputes and setbacks. When these slow moving planets transit in the sign Capricorn they cause setbacks, obstructions and difficulties to father and the spouse. When these slow moving planets transit in the sign Taurus they may cause loss of income, additional expenses, problems with law and setbacks. In such situations one should strengthen Jupiter and Saturn and continuously propitiate Rahu and Ketu.

With this background in view, we shall now take up a few case studies for further understanding.

The lord of the second house, the Moon, has gone to the sixth house in its sign of debilitation weakening the house of family life and status and making it vulnerable to conflicts. The fourth ford, Mercury, is not only combust but is also in old-age. The seventh lord, Jupiter, is combust, its dispositor is weak and the most effective point of its mooltrikona house is exactly afflicted by the Rahu-Ketu axis. The combined effect of these had been delayed marriage, cheating in marriage, inharmonious relations and divorce. The mother of the native had to lead a long and unhappy life as a widow. Rahu-Ketu axis, being exactly conjunct to the most effective point of the houses of its occupation, had been instrumental in robbing the marital happiness and physical and mental fitness of the native.

The Sun is weak due to the weakness of its dispositor and the most effective point of its mooltrikona house being exactly afflicted by Ketu. Venus is weak as its dispositor is weak and its mooltrikona house and its house of placement are both exactly afflicted by Rahu and Ketu respectively. Mars is weak as its mooltrikona house and its house of placement are both exactly afflicted by Ketu and Rahu-Ketu axis respectively. The placement of the lord of the house of fortune in the house of status has blessed the native with a status in the teaching profession. The good placement of Mars and Saturn gave strength to the native and blessed her with younger and elder brothers, a son, and an employment with the government. The native was married in the sub-period of the Moon in the main period of Venus.

The native sought astrological help, after the grounds for divorce had been prepared in the same sub-period. Strengthening remedial measures for weak planets by way of a Kavach and simple propitiatory remedial measures for Rahu-Ketu were suggested for physical health and mental solace.

The sign Gemini rises in the ascendant. Mercury occupies the house of initiatives, writings and courage, along with the lords of the third and the fifth houses. Mercury represents the fourth house. The lord of the second house is in the eighth house. The lord of the eleventh house, Mars, is placed in the second house. Both Moon and Mars closely aspect each other. The lords of the ninth and seventh houses are placed in the angular houses. Rahu-Ketu axis mildly afflicts the most effective points of the houses occupied and aspected except the seventh house whose lord is strong. The close conjunction of the lords of the fourth and fifth houses, fairly strong Sun and strong Jupiter in the tenth house indicate significant rise in life, which fructified with the onset of the main period of Jupiter. The basic areas were of the writing, analytical work and the professional matters. In July, 1968, at the age of 17 years the native compiled a book on devotional songs. In July, 1974, the native's views on a very sensitive national issue were published in a national newspaper. In 1989, the native authored a book which was widely accepted by the target audience. In May, 1991, the research work of the native was published in the form of a book. The native has written a dozen books and contributed to number of journals. The native is internationally known because of his books.

The native is blessed with happiness from younger brothers, parents, material assets, religious inclinations and good status in life.

The main period of Jupiter was followed by the main period of functional benefic planet, Saturn, the ninth lord, which brought in further fortunes in the sub-periods of Saturn, Mercury, Venus and the Sun.

Jupiter is closely conjunct with the most effective point of the ninth house and creates an auspicious impact in spite of its being weak due to the weakness of its dispositor. Mercury, the fourth lord, is weak as it is combust, afflicted by Ketu from the eighth house, and Ketu afflicts also the most effective point of its mooltrikona sign and house of placement. Rahu/Ketu due to close aspects/conjunctions afflicts also Saturn, the Moon, and the most effective points of all the remaining houses occupied and aspected. Venus is badly placed, in infancy and becomes additionally weak due to the affliction of Rahu to the most effective point of its house of placement. The Sun is weak on account of old-age, weak dispositor and afflicted most effective point of its house of placement. Mars is debilitated and the most effective point of its house of placement is afflicted by the Rahu-Ketu axis. The Moon and Saturn occupy their signs of debilitation in navamsa.

Due to close nodal affliction to badly placed Saturn and weakness of Mercury, the main period of Mercury could not prove to be of great help to the father. There was restricted material prosperity but status-wise no growth.

Affliction to the weak second lord, debilitated Mars placed in the second house and the lord of the fortune placed in the eighth house, which is dispositor of the seventh lord, spoiled the marital life of the native. She did not have elder/younger brothers/sisters. She had short-lived and inharmonious marital relationship giving birth to a female child. She was married in Ketu/Mars.

The placement of Mars close to the most effective point of the second house, the Moon close to the most effective point of the tenth house and the close aspect of Mercury to the Moon and the most effective point of the tenth house, blessed the native with employment. Life is a bed of thorns for the native primarily because of close afflictions to Saturn, the Moon and Mercury. The main period lord Venus, placed in the sixth house, and the lords of the sub-periods being afflicted could not help the native.

The lord of the third house, the Sun, is placed in the fourth house and is weak as it has a combust dispositor and is exactly afflicted by Rahu from the eighth house. The lords of the fifth and eleventh houses, Venus and Mars, are weak as they have a weak dispositor. Mars is also debilitated in navamsa. The lord of the house of status, the Moon, is weak as it is in the state of infancy and has a weak dispositor. The lord of the seventh house, Jupiter, is weak as it is in the state of infancy, but aspects the most effective point of the seventh house very closely. The lord of the ninth house occupies the fifth house in its sign of exaltation but is weak due to infancy and weak dispositor. Apart from the weakness of the Moon, the other areas of weakness are the ones ruled by the planets Jupiter, Venus, Mars, Sun and Saturn. Rahu's aspect to the Sun has eluded success in entrepreneurial attempts of the native for opening a nursing home. The native is a medical doctor and has keen desire for having a nursing home. On the other hand, the weakness of the Moon and the Sun ditched her in finding a regular job, in spite of her being a professional.

The weakness of the Moon, the lord of the house of family and male progeny, and its main period being in operation proved to be a hindrance for the continuance of the family line. The native gave birth to twin female babies and thereafter could not conceive in spite of the couple being fully eligible from the medical point of view. The placement of Venus, the lord of the fifth house, in the sign of a severely afflicted planet and the weakness of the Moon could not bless the native with a male child.

Birth:24th Oct., 1970 2320Hrs. (Click Here to see Chart)
The Moon is in the third house and is closely afflicted by the Rahu-Ketu axis. The lord of the third house is in its sign of debilitation and under the exact aspect of Rahu. The lord of the fourth house is combust and closely afflicted by Rahu. The lord of the fifth house is placed in the sixth house in the state of infancy. The lord of the ninth house is weak as it is debilitated, in old-age and has a weak dispositor. Jupiter and Mars lose their apparent strength due to the weakness of their dispositors.

The weakness of all the planets and close afflictions in the chart has resulted in the overall stagnant growth. The native’s school education had been with failures and lower grades. The financial position of the parents remained unsatisfactory. In the sub-period of Rahu in the main period of Venus placed in the house of sickness, the child suffered from a leg fracture due to Rahu’s affliction to the significator for bones, the Sun.

The native’s studies lagged behind with interruption. The native could get a job with great difficulties. Consequently, the settlement in life in all spheres is slow. The weakness of the lord of the ninth house, Saturn, and the weakness of and affliction to the significator for father, the Sun, does not show satisfactory scope of help from father.

Birth :25th June, 1961 0515 Hrs.(Click Here to see Chart)
The close conjunction of the Sun with the most effective point of the ascendant has given birth in a comparatively affluent family and has resulted into big ventures by the native. The combustion of Mercury and placement of Mercury in an afflicted house has, however, obstructed the normal pace of growth of the prosperity due to transit afflictions. Mars is weak as it is in infancy, has a weak dispositor and is closely afflicted by Rahu-Ketu axis. Rahu-Ketu axis is close to the most effective points of the houses occupied and afflicts the houses occupied and aspected. The Moon and Venus are weak due to the weakness of their dispositors and the most effective points of their houses of placement being exactly afflicted. The mother of the native suffered from various health problems. Jupiter is debilitated, badly placed and its mooltrikona house is exactly afflicted. Weak Saturn is badly placed but is close to the most effective point of the house and benefits the houses occupied and aspected to some extent.

The exact conjunction of Mars, the significator of younger brother and lord of the house of elder brother, with Rahu near to the most effective point of the third house, has caused suffering to both elder and younger brothers and sisters, besides causing physical and professional problems to the native. The elder brother of the native could not be blessed with a child even after 15 years of married life. The younger sister also faced the same problem after marriage.

The Moon is placed in the fifth house, being closely aspected by the lord of the fifth house, Venus. The native remained unmarried up to the 28th year of his life, when he sought astral remedies. Kavach for weak planets and propitiatory remedial measures for Rahu and Ketu helped the native in getting married and being blessed with progeny. The placement of Ketu close to the most effective point of the ninth house and placement of Saturn in the eighth house brought the financial resources and assets of the native's father down. The placement of the Sun and mutual aspect of Venus and Moon took the native to politics in the main period of Mercury. The younger paternal uncle's assuming the office of a Minister made an opening for the native's entry into politics.

Birth : Feb. 1948 (Click Here to see Chart)
The lord of the second house, the Moon, occupies its sign of debilitation in the sixth house. The lord of the third house and significator for father, the Sun, is placed in the eighth house and the most effective point of its mooltrikona house if exactly afflicted by Rahu.

The lords of the fourth and fifth houses occupy the ninth house. The lord of the fifth house is just on the most effective point of the ninth house and is under exact affliction of Ketu. The lord of the seventh house is closely conjunct with the most effective point of the sixth house. The Rahu-Ketu axis afflicts exactly the houses occupied and aspected. Mars and Mercury mutually aspect each other but are weak due to placement in the afflicted houses.

The lord of the house of fortune is just on the most effective point of the house of status. The role of this placement of Saturn has been prominent in the life of the native. Saturn has blessed the native with a placement in the civil services. Exact aspect of Ketu to the lord of the fifth house and placement of Ketu on the most effective point of the fifth house has denied the native of progeny happiness. The placement of the lords of the second and seventh houses in the house of disputes has not only delayed the marriage but has also made it inharmonious permanently shortly after it was solemnized. The aspect of the third lord to the house of status shows acquiring status with self-efforts.

Birth : July , 1955 (Click Here to see Chart)
The lords of the seventh, eleventh, fifth and fourth houses are weak due to combustion and weak dispositor. Besides, the lords of the fifth and fourth houses are in infancy and the lord of the eleventh house is debilitated. The lord of the second house is debilitated and badly placed. The placement of five planets in the house of status in association with the royal planet, the Sun, has been of some help in harnessing the strength of the otherwise weak planets. Jupiter and Mars are closely aspected by exalted Saturn from the fifth house, though the debilitation of Saturn in navamsa and the weakness of its dispositor discount its strength. The close influence of Venus to the most effective point of the house of status, and placement of the Sun and Mars there have made the native a physician. The exaltation of the ninth lord granted exalted status to the father. The weakness of the lords of the second and seventh houses and placement of the debilitated Moon in the sixth house gave marital discord to the native. The weakness of majority of the planets reduces the physical strength of the native, which is one of the very important factors for a happy married life. Combust Jupiter's sub-period in the main period of combust Mercury resulted in a divorce giving a mental setback to the native as well as his parents. The period also saw the death of his mother.
