The sign Aquarius is the mooltrikona sign of Saturn, who rules the physical health of Aquarians fully.  It rules legs, ankles, blood and its circulation, shin-bones, etc.  If Saturn is weak and the sign Aquarius is afflicted by functional malefics, the native stands chances of suffering from cancerous diseases, wounds, fracture of lower portion of the leg, etc., in the body parts signified by this sign.

Aquarius is a talkative, positive, human and airy sign, and signifies characteristics like honesty, ideals and sensitiveness, etc. depending upon the strength of Saturn in the nativity.  Aquarians are very active, industrious, deliberative, leaders of non-affluent sections of the society, and courteous.  Weak Saturn makes Aquarians suspicious and lethargic.  They are comparatively more concerned about the ends in comparison to means.  They are invariably not content with their possessions.

The fast moving planets, the Moon and Mercury, are functional malefics for Aquarians, besides the nodes.  As a result of this, recurrent short-lived disturbances are more in the lives of Aquarians.   A strong Mars, whose Mooltrikona sign falls in the third house, turns them to the field of communications, which suits their general nature of a thinker.  Close conjunction/aspect of the Moon with functional benefics or the mid-point of the houses puts them in a disadvantageous position, due to disputes and diseases.  A strong Sun blesses them with a spouse from a well-connected family.

Strong Mercury blesses them with good inheritance but at the same time its close connection with any other planet or mid-point of a house is highly undesirable due to Mercury's functional nature being malefic.  A strong Venus, in its periods, promises good fortune and a noble wife.  A combust Mercury endangers the smooth continuance of married life.  Powerful connection of a strong Jupiter with the house of profession, finances or any other house indicates progressive future during the periods of Jupiter.

Aquarians are writers, thinkers, servants, leaders of non-affluent sections of society and industrialists.  As Saturn is a significator for longevity, its strong position in the chart blesses the native with a long life.  They are traditional in their approach, but can resort to even undesirable means to achieve their ends.

The lord of the ascendant is in the eleventh house, and the lord of the eleventh house is closely conjunct with the mid-point of the tenth house.  The lady is working as a teacher (meager income, due to involvement of Saturn, and teaching profession due to involvement of Jupiter).  Rahu-Ketu axis afflicts debilitated Mercury closely and aged exalted Venus.  The lord of the third house is closely aspected by Rahu and is debilitated in navamsa and the mid-point of the third house is closely afflicted by the Moon, resulting in absence of happiness from a younger brother and lack of initiative.  Both Jupiter and the Sun are well-placed, though the Sun is in the old age.  The Sun is the lord of the seventh house, which gave the native a well-placed serving officer as a husband.  The influence of functional malefic, the Moon, and weakness and affliction of Mercury gave functional disorders to the native, delaying conception, for which she had both medical treatment and astral remedies.  Medically, positive hope has been indicated for a child.  Exalted Venus rules the affluent parents and they enjoy a reasonably good fortune.

The lords of the ascendant and third house are closely conjunct with each other in the fifth house. They make the native highly agile and enterprising.  Debilitated and combust Mercury is just on the mid-point of the second house indicating obstructions in life.  Yogakaraka Venus occupies the second house in its sign of exaltation.  The native was born in a well-to-do family.  The lord of the sixth house, the Moon, is in the eleventh house, but quite away from the mid-point.  Infant Jupiter is closely aspected by Rahu.  Rahu highly activates the significations of the planets under its influence.  Jupiter is placed in the mooltrikona sign of Venus. It gives indication for entering the cine world for income.  Rahu inflamed the passions and in a very short span of time, the native started producing a Hindi movie.  The wife of the native also supported the native in his efforts for rise in status, but the obstructions are caused due to the close conjunction of the functionally malefic debilitated Mercury. This causes nervous pressure.  Rahu's close influence on Jupiter gives static bad mental health to the son.  Jupiter gives affluent income, and its placement in the bhagyasthana in this nativity does give indication of a handsome income.  This could not have come from the job in which the native was employed.  Jupiter's sub-period changed the course of his professional career.  Performance of astral remedies will surely lessen the malefic effects of Rahu and Mercury.

Rahu closely aspects and afflicts the lord of the ascendant and gives weak health.  Ketu closely afflicts the lord of the house of health,  that is sixth, for aggravating the health problems of the native. The native started suffering from excessive corpulence and diabetes in his early stages of life.  The lord of the seventh house, the Sun, is placed in the house of status indicating high official rank of the spouse.

The husband of the native is a high-ranking officer in the country's law and order machinery.

The lord of the third house, Mars, closely associates with the lords of the seventh, ninth and eighth houses. The involvement of Mercury in the set of planets in the second house is unwanted and afflicting.

The lord of the eleventh house, Jupiter, is weak due to debilitation.   Jupiter's weakness has also added to the weak health of the native.  Weak liver and pancreas have caused diabetes.  However, the placement of three auspicious planets in close conjunction amongst themselves has many good things to offer in life.

The lord of the ascendant closely aspects the ascendant. The functional benefic, Jupiter, also occupies the ascendant. The functional benefic, exalted Sun, closely conjuncts with the mid-point of the third house. The Moon, in its sign of debilitation and closely aspected by Rahu, ruling the house of disputes, is in the tenth house.  The functional malefic, Mercury, is in the fourth house, but quite away from the mid-point of the fourth house.  The lord of the third house, Mars, is quite weak due to its being in the state of old age.  The strong position of the lord of the ascendant, position of functional benefic, Jupiter, in the ascendant and the exaltation of the benefic Sun, blessed the native with a senior position in the Revenue Dept.  The placement of the sixth lord, Moon, in the tenth house and close affliction to the same by aspect of Rahu, involved the native in departmental enquiries on charges of corruption.

A strong Sun in the case of Aquarians causes problems of adjustment in marital life.  The ascendant creates tendencies of being orthodox, selfish, greedy, feeling insecure and austerity, while a strong Sun gives the royal temperament of wife.  The weakness of Mercury in the case of Aquarians gives a short lease of married life.  Because of placement of the sign Cancer in the sixth house, the lord of which mostly remains weak for one or the other reasons, Aquarians generally stand to lose in disputes/litigation.

From the 28th year of his life, the native had the main period of the exalted yogakaraka planet, Venus, and enjoyed comforts and high social and governmental status.  The native is destined to continue with his rising career as the main period of Venus is to be followed by the exalted Sun's main period.  However, the ending period of his career may pose some problems because of the onset of dasa of weak and highly afflicted sixth lord.

At birth, the native was running the balance period of the functional malefic, Mercury, followed by the main period of Ketu.  During these periods, the native suffered constantly on account of ill health.   The next main period of yogakaraka Venus, though functionally benefic, could not give tremendous rise to the native due to the weakness of Venus, as it is in the state of old age.  Let us now see the factors for bad health and other aspects of life.

Rahu closely aspects the lord of the ascendant, Saturn, and afflicts the later.  Functional malefics, the Moon and Mercury, jointly closely afflict Jupiter and the mid-point of the tenth house. The Sun and Mars are weak as they are in the state of infancy.  The Moon, Mercury and Jupiter are combust.  Besides, the Moon is in its sign of debilitation in both rasi and navamsa charts.  The Sun is exalted in navamsa.

Majority of the planets are weak and afflicted, which gave weak physical constitution, weak eyesight, liver and intestinal disorders.  The native is pursuing his studies in a foreign country and working on a part time basis to support himself.

In 1986, when the native was a student of the eleventh standard, his father asked if his son would be successful in the competition for Indian Administrative Service.  By seeing the planetary combinations, I just kept quiet wondering about the gap between the indications of the chart and the expectations of the father.  As luck would have it, the father unknowingly sacrificed the career of the child, just to pursue his own ambition of a foreign posting in life.  The child had been studying brilliantly before his departure to a foreign country to accompany his father.  This happened in the sub-periods of the Sun, in the dasa of Venus.  The native, as of now, is lost in the crowd, but has to see more troublesome periods, in the sub-period of combust and highly afflicted Jupiter.  There may be serious obstructions in his career growth due to bad health, and he is likely to return to his native place to start afresh and to toil.

Functional benefics, Jupiter and Venus, are closely conjunct with each other in the fourth house, while Jupiter influences the mid-point of the fourth house, as well. This is a very powerful planetary influence in this chart.  Jupiter aspects closely and promotes both the Moon and Saturn, ruling health in particular, which is otherwise badly placed in the eighth house.  The eighth lord, Mercury, is placed in the sixth house and is closely associated with Rahu-Ketu axis.  The seventh lord, the Sun, is placed in the sixth house in the state of infancy.

The native had a main period of well-placed favorable Jupiter from the 24th year onwards.  With financial help from parents, the native ventured into the business of trading, purification of edible oils and set up a joint venture with the participation of a foreign collaborator.

During the sub-period of Rahu in the main period of Jupiter, however, there were obstructions and financial constraints, as Rahu afflicts Mercury ruling inherited wealth and obstructions.  The wife of the native keeps indifferent health.  Due to the weakness of Mars, though enterprising, the native is lacking activeness.  The real problems are seen in the sub-period of Mercury in the main period of Saturn, both of which are ill placed with slightly better position of Saturn due to Jupiter's aspect.  Mercury on the other hand is heavily afflicted.  This period is bad for health of self and spouse and loss of some portion of the inherited wealth or its being involved in litigation.  However, due to the powerful placement of Jupiter, the native was impelled to seek the help of divine science and as a result of that, the ill effects may be reduced to a large extent due to sincere performance of astral-remedies.

The lord of the ascendant, Saturn, is placed in the sixth house and is closely afflicted by the aspect of Ketu.  Functional malefic, the Moon, is closely conjunct with the mid-point of the fourth house and Venus, while functional malefic, Mercury, is closely conjunct with the mid-point of the sixth house.  The aged Jupiter is severely afflicted by the close aspect of Rahu from the eighth house.  The lord of the third house, Mars, is in the state of infancy while lord of the seventh house, the Sun, is in the state of old age.  The weak, badly placed and afflicted lord of the ascendant, Saturn, and weak and afflicted Jupiter made the native physically handicapped.  Severely afflicted Venus was responsible for the loss of his father early in life at the age of 11 years in the sub-period of Venus in the dasa of Mars.

The chart is indicative of diseased and short span of life, lack of happiness from father, lack of income, lack of marital bliss because of severe afflictions to the fourth house, obstructions in education and difficulties to mother.
