Ithasala yoga is formed when Faster planet with less longitude is behind a slower planet with more longitude. This is considered to be a benefic yoga

I give below the combination and placement of planets

Lagna in Aries

Sun 17degree14 minutes in Scorpio
Moon 0degree 53minutes in Capricorn
Mars 6 degree 30 minutes in Scorpio
Jupiter 19 degree in Scorpio
Mercury 0 degree in Scorpio
Venus 1 degree 51 minutes in Libra
Saturn 12 degree 52 minutes in Sagi


This indicates Mercury is Ithasala to Mars, Jupiter and Saturn in the above combination

According to Tajaka system it is believed that this yoga is good

But Mercury being 3rd and 6th house lord to the lagna , does Mercury spoil the benefit of this yoga?

Govardhant ji,

Let us take that all the planets are direct. Then Mercury is in 'Vartaman' ithasala yoga.

So there is ithasala between the 3rd, 6th. lord.... and ......1st, 8th. lord. But kamboola yoga between them too (moon involved). Also  Venus is involved in ithasala with moon, indirectly with mars and mercury ( moon is translating the light).

I would it call it very good ithasala between Mars and Mercury.. bringing divine gifts.

It depends upon what the nature of question is/ the area one is looking at. In short it is favorable sambandha between Mercury and Mars.

In natal charts it could show favorable short journeys for the native; favorable sambandh between maternal relatives, unfavorable long journeys; favorable relations with the spouse..the binding fator being home life.......> Reply being given strictly from ithasala factors. Other positions could alter results here and there.

The application of ithasala is very logical, helping one to see more between apparent results. The positions of the nodes can change results considerably.

Hope this was helpful.

When one makes an effort to study a combination and reply, he expects a reply as a gesture.

Dear Rishiji

According to Sri B V Raman, nodes do not play any part in the Ithasala yoga. Then how do you says nodes play a part.

Regards

Govardhanji,

I have experimented to see that it does. I have great respects for Dr. B.V. Raman for his woderful researches.

I do not follow his ayanamsha too much, though he is Dr. B.V. Raman.

By the way can you please state that where he has mentioned that nodes do not play a part in tajik. I think its a misrepresentation. I read his book in varshaphal many times and still refer to it.
