dear members i got some material frm shri Sanjay Rath's website that jupiter in aquarious is somewhat exalted. and i tried to ask the same question in his yahoo group forum but none of his study group members were able to reply scientifically .
Like is only jupiter is said to be exalted or other planet like mars or venis is said to be the same sort of .

I hope some of here can suggest me the same.
Thanks
Tarun.

hi tarun,
well even i would like to know an explanation to that, because as far as I can think Jup in Aquarius looks like to be a weak placement for jupiter because Jup lands up being in 3rd from its sign sagit and in 12th from its sign pisces, so it definitely weakens the prospects of house occupied by the sign pisces and being in 3rd from its sign is not that good either...
Plz tell us wat u think ppl...

there's no planet getting exalted in Aquarius

Then again...
I was just chillin, and this topic crossed my mind...u said that it was mentioned, "Jup is like exalted in Aquarius"
Well as I said earlier, its not a very good position for concerns of houses owned by Jup, but then again, is Jup strong in this position???
These are two different things...
a planet maybe vey strong in one way but still it might not be able to give results due to other factors, or else a planet may seem to be rather weak but may be giving good results...it all comes down to how we analyse the strength of the planet...
There are quite a few factors pertaining to this, for e.g.
lets talk about directional strength, the strength gained by planets by virtue of placement in a particular house...
Mars is considered to be particularly strong in 10th house, so is Saturn in 7th house, Sun is also considered very strong in the 10th house...other planets have their house of strength aswell but the above three are considered particularly...having said that Mars and Sun loose their directional strength in the 4th house and similarly Sat in the 1st house...So, u can say that an exalted Mars in the 4th house will not be as powerful as an exalted Mars in the 10th...

Having said all that these are the combinations that you will probably not find in every horoscope you see, so then what we need is atleast a standard method(and a good one too) to judge the planetary strength. I have always had very good results with using the concept of despositor. In order to explain what I mean, lets say Saturn is exalted in Libra but Venus, the lord of Libra is weekly disposed then Saturn will not be considered very strong...
The concept can be further extended, plz share ur views and comments
thanks
