[quote="sandhu.jp"]Dear RR
Though i just can't Quote the numbers that you have quoted to press the point home that ,cancer ascendent people are not more susceptible to divorce vis a vis the other ascendentants , i feel that somehow or the other this sign denies the marital harmony if not divorce or seperation, and often leads to delayed marriages   for some individuals or in some cases no marriage at all.
However i agree with you that u just can't  let  your convictions to somehoew hamper your ability to see the bigger picture.

Dear Sandhuji,

The numbers and stats were generated not to downplay your observations or beliefs but just a sharing of what I try to do when I begin to see a trend and before it becomes too close to my heart.

That said, as reports and stats indicate marital discord are fairly common and way more than the 20-30% that cancer rising or cancer moon or cancer L7/Venus would appear to be the case. Divorces are fairly common and mental divorces even commoner.

That said, if I were to do research in this area I would be looking at the following factors or parameters:

Perhaps all 12 ascendants (or moons etc) were not meant to respond to marriage in the same manner. That would be too simple and so many hundreds of books on marriage management and relationship restitution would not have gotten writ!

Perhaps rather than looking at whether a certain sign is more likely to lead to marital discord, we should do a deeper study of the way the different lagnas or moons (for instance) are dealing with relationships and marriage etc. Perhaps cancerians were supposed to be approaching marriage different from for example those with aries moon or libra moon. Those who are doing it rightly are likely to have a positive outcome while others would not. Then again the same individual may be more successful after the fourth marriage than he or she was after the first one. Part of this could be learning and maturity but what afterall is learning and maturity? I think it is coming to terms with who you are and what or how you should be doing things and leading life. Those who manage to move closer to their 'template' of possibilities are likely to be more successful.

I hope my statements are not judged too hastily and the best way to avoid that is to not respond but to take in what I wrote and to remember it when seeing charts and doing a field test.

Also, the 'template' is not a rigid crippling list but a list of possibilities and options within a certain range. Kind of like the goat tied to the pillar in a courtyard. Choices not limitless are not non-existent either!

Dear RR
Thanks a lot for your inputs, maybe its just a cluster of few horroscopes that lead me to post this thread as you asserted in one of your posts or beginning of a trend i just dont know however i agree with you that we should also examine the other rashis and ascendents before arriving at something concrete. Thanks again.

Dear Prasanna,

There seems to have been a 'natural' mis-interpretation on your part. Though raised by a Bengali family which never forced its culture or language on me -- I was about 14ish when I first chose to learn Bengali. The reason was simple: The wonderful books in my dad's library: the leatherbound volumes by Bankim and Sharat and Rabindranath (which latter -- I never read, I must publicly admit) were the reason and no cultural or other pull! Strange, isn't it?

I have always known and felt comfortable with the fact that my first language is and always will be Hindi (Hindustani actually, which is a mix of hindi and urdu! Hence my Rooh ki awaaz!)

Love, Light and Levity...

Sandhuji,

Don't worry about it. Without boring you all out of your minds, this has happened to me several times when a cluster of astro-similar charts showed up and eventually I began to question such *synchronicities* and examine those. In my case, these turned out to be blessings in disguise and helped me with my ayanamsha and similar research.

Love, light, Levity ...
