If Lagnas Lord is in 3rd House, the native will equal a lion in valor, be endowed with all kinds of wealth, be honourable, will have two wives, be intelligent and happy.  Parashara Hora

If 8ths Lord is in 3rd House, the native will be devoid of fraternal happiness, be indolent and devoid of servants and strength. Parashara Hora

If 9ths Lord is in 5th House, the native will be endowed with sons and prosperity, devoted to elders, bold, and learned.

If 12ths Lord is in 5th House, the native will be bereft of sons and learning. He will spend, as well as visit shrines in order to beget a son.

In an aries ascendant, with mars in the third house, and jupiter in the fifth, how can each of these pair of statements from the greatest of all astro seers, be true at the same time...?

Someone explain please

Dear Jay --

Good questions! They touch upon the logical part of jyotish and then some more!

Lagnesha always has the the flavour of mars, because mars rules the lagna of kalapurusha, the lagnesha of the human race as I have dared dub it in my article published in Astrological Magazine in the Feb 2007 issue (shameless plug! Sorry!!)

And you raise some of the karako bhavnashaya issues too in the same post. I am not sure if you did it knowingly or innocently!

A wise doctor friend shared with me many years ago: You see one, you do one, you teach one! She was referring to medical procedures of course, but maybe astrological techniques are not all that different either. Just that the numbers (N) would need to be higher than "1".

The beauty of jyotish is this:
That which encompasses logic and logical always sounds so elegant until unless you apply the logic to real charts! And at that point, if you are fortunate you realize that what you had considered logical so far may not have been THE logic or reality and that there is an alternative explanation -- often logical and sometimes even more logical than the first explanation that you learned but that failed in your experience! Almost like scientific discoveries!

recently i read a house division system which says each house always need not be 30 degrees in size on the zodiac. if tht is the case, then at least part of any chart will be wrong...? how can this be...?

             accdg to this system , in my chart lot of planets fall in the immediate succeeding house or preceding house....! throwing all assumptions into jeopardy...!

Vedic Astrology always in fixed positions,there are not any flux abilities.

you are really pointing out at some of the things that catches ur attention inadvertently until u learn to let them go....but lets hope we can get some answers here...
