Basic - now all you can see the planetary positions out there. I am Scorpio rashi and Sagittarius lagna and according to western astrology my rashi is also Scorpio and rising is Sagittarius. The sun and moon is placed in same house here.  I have born in Anuradha star as well.

Planetary positions – Let me explain the planetary positions. They are following –

1^st house (Lagna) – mercury + Venus, aspect of mars (8th eye)

2^nd house – Saturn + Rahu, aspect of Jupiter, Ketu

4^th house – No planet and only Saturn’s 3^rd eye

6^th house – Only retrograde mars and aspect of sun, moon

7^th house – No Planets, aspect of lagna, Venus, mercury

8^th house – Jupiter + Ketu is sitting and aspect of Saturn, Rahu

9^th house – aspect of retrograde mars

11^th house – No planet only aspect of Saturn’s 10^th eye

12^th house – sun and moon and aspects by retrograde mars (Mars is actually inspecting Scorpio – own house)

1.        1^st house – Like I said before the 1^st house is the 50% of your kundli, it is you, your body, how you interact to the works, overall your life, goods and bads throughout the life and like that. Basically sun, moon and lagna and aspects of planets will tell a man everything – you don’t need to check any other house for this. The sun is the soul, moon is the mind and lagna how you interact you with the world. The lagna is also with Venus (very close and same degree) and also with mercury. The Venus is in enemy house, though Jupiter doesn’t have any aspect on his own house or any other eye of Jupiter that’s why Jupiter doesn’t have any influence on it. The Venus will help to get luxury throughout the life. The mercury is retrograde as well. H0wever along with lagna mercury acts as a strong planet and Venus too. Mercury gave me intelligence throughout the life. Mercury also the speech. Since it was retrograde I had little stammering problem throughout the life. Every work, every action is now being controlled by intelligence. This also speaks that throughout the life I have to speak.

2.      2^nd house – The 2^nd house is for home , house , flats , car , fixed assets , wealth , speech , drink , self created property , self confidence , clothes etc. This house is occupied by Saturn and Rahu. I have read variety types of comments regarding this Saturn and Rahu combination. Some says it is bad. Some says it just acts as a double Saturn. I do think since Saturn is in 00 degrees and Rahu stays at a distance with Saturn, Rahu is under control of Saturn. Saturn is all about delay and karmic debts. So, maybe I had ignores work on those areas of life and that’s why Saturn is there probably.  Some also says Saturn in 2^nd house is the karmic debts towards my family. Yes, this fact is partially true for me I had to work a lot for my parents (father and mother both) and elder brother. The Saturn is inspecting the 3^rd house i.e. 4^th house form lagna and 11^th house form lagna. I also read that Saturn and Rahu are friends not sure why. Saturn make things delay where Rahu make things very fast, it could give success over night and all of sudden. Though in my life I had received sudden wealth during my Rahu antardosha. I think, Saturn both are friends and try to make the things successfully here. This 2^nd house is also being inspected by Jupiter and Ketu. Like you see Jupiter is retrograde + exalted here and Ketu added the separation, spirituality here.

3.       3^rd house – The 3^rd house is also the Saturn’s house. It is Aquarius. This house doesn’t have any planets. So, we have to look where the lord of the 3^rd house is situated and this is Saturn and Saturn is situated in 2^nd house .This means the lord of 3^rd house and 2^nd house is situated in 2^nd house. So, there is a connection between 2^nd house and 3^rd house. The 3^rd house is for local movements, short journeys, manual skills, labor, strength, courage etc. All these are given by Saturn. Since the planet of these two houses is Saturn make sure all of these functionalities are being provided by Saturn. Like I said before Saturn is powerful in my kundli, it does late but don’t deny. So, yes there is delay in getting results in most of areas of my life and along with hurdles.

4.      4^th house – Here, 4^th house also don’t have any planets. But there are aspect of Saturn (3rd eye). So, make sure all the things will be controlled by Saturn. 4^th house is the basic happiness of life. So, there will be happiness but in later life. While Saturn represents old age. So, my young life was really very troublesome. Now when I am writing all these my age is 27 and I am still having very hard, troublesome life for me. Happiness is nowhere. I really don’t get any support from my parents. Everything is for me is self build. 4^th house also represents Mind, heart, feelings, happiness, close friends, all family members, the mother, all well-wishers, home, comforts, home country, landed property, houses, gardens, underground treasures, wells, agricultural products, vehicles, horses, elephants, cows, buffaloes, goats and sheep, holy places, moral virtues, devotion to God, piety, righteous conduct, character, good name and reputation, education, erudition, ultimate results – so all these get delayed. The 4^th house also have 9^th eye of Jupiter so after all luck is not all bad.

5.      5^th house – 5^th houses is actually empty. So, I have to check where 5^th lord is and how it works. Here the 5^th lord is mars and it is retrograde. Mars is in Taurus house and lord of Taurus is Venus. The relationship between mars and Venus lies in extreme hunger in life in term of demand, luxury, pleasures of bed etc. So the 5^th house lord is now taking care of 6^th house.

6.      6^th house – The 6^th house stands for Worries, anxieties, obstacles, enemies, thieves, vices, challenges, tests, urge for perfection, self-improvement techniques, competitive power, turning obstacles into opportunities, difference of opinion, conflicts, debts, diseases, suffering, wounds, service, daily job, imprisonment . Yes I don’t have any enemies. Though mars is retrograde still it killed enemies at last. Sitting 6^th house mars is inspecting 1st house (lagna ), 12^th house and 10^th house. Now, you will ask how it would be when eyes on lagna? surely it made be brave , hungry for power and a military like attitude. It gave me courage while doing any work and metal power. Thanks to mars. 

7.      7^th house – 7^th houses is called the rest of the world. Lots of things we can learn from here. If the sun = soul, then moon = mind, lagna = your physics and 7^th house = rest of the world. My 7^th lord is mercury and sitting in lagna. Though it is retrograde but in lagna all planets are considered as strong. Now, go to lagna and think what the 1^st house or lagna actually does. That’s means the functions of 7^th house are with me. In addition to this, mercury is not just the 7^th lord; it is my 10^th lord too. So, the areas of 7^th house and 10^th house are actually with me. Now let’s look what 7^th house does and 10^th house does. 7^th house is for Husband, wife, partner, lover, marriage, partnership, sexual affairs, medium-term desires, business partner, co-operation, trade, commerce, travel, journeys, litigation, living abroad, nature of spouse, relationship with all others, the world at large as seen by the native, happiness from children and 10^th house is for Activity, occupation, profession, career, reputation, prestige, success and status in society, honor from government, , promotion, rank, renown, fame, ambition, happiness, authority, royalty, ruling power etc. If we filter down the highly prioritized work of 7^th house and 10^th house you will say 7^th house is for wife and business partners and 10^th house is for occupation, job etc. So, that means these two things is with lagna – i.e. with me. That means who is my wife , she could be business partner too , she could be working with same business too. She could be working in the same company where I am working. When wife comes with me that my part of my lagna will come to me. The 7^th house have eyes of mercury (own house) and Venus. So, seventh lord will help to get business 7^th lord will see business as well. Still I am not married and let’s see how married life goes actually.

8.      8^th house – The 8^th house have long duties. It tells us the longevity, the length of life. It tells us how you will die, when you will die at what conditions you will die. This will also continue to extent the longevity of the 8^th house as well. The other non-important functions that we could draw form 8^th house is  - mode of death , wealth of spouse( though it is not just depend on 8^th house but also form some other houses as well ) , unearned wealth, inheritance, underground places, hidden treasures, everything hidden, mysteries of life and "death," overseas journeys etc. In my kundli, the 8^th house is occupied by Jupiter and Ketu and aspected by Saturn and rahu. It is being said that Jupiter does harm where it sits but benefits where sees. Also, look at the conditions of Jupiter it is exalted and retrograde at the same. Now, that is the main point. The meaning of exalted and retrograde is understood wrongly. So, far with just of my 6^th months of knowledge in astrology I don’t how it works, though my age is 27 and I have analyzed and filtered down in my own mind how retrograde and exalted Jupiter actually works but it does not affect me that much.  Different astrologers have different ideas regarding this retrograde and exalted Jupiter. However, we will discuss all this in past blogs. The most dependable theory of retrograde and exalted Jupiter is that it provides 50% retrograde effects of past life, 25% effect of where it sits and 25% of previous house. That means of 7^th house. Now, you know my 7^th house also have 25% effect (exalted) of Jupiter. The Saturn and rahu (means double Saturn) will also start harming me. The functions of 8^th house are actually mixed by Jupiter and Ketu aspect of Saturn and rahu aspect. We need to see higher line of calculation so that you could know who is going to do effect and who is not.

9.      9^th house – 9^th houses is the dharma house. We will get following things from 9^th house – the religious life, the spiritual life, I will be religious or not, govt. favor, the types if son, the luck of sons etc. In my case the 9^th house doesn’t have any planets and 9^th lord is sun is in 12^th house. I will explain when I will be on 12^th house.

10.   10^th house – The 10^th house is for jobs, profession, support form govt. and that’s why 10^th house like I said is in lagna. I have also the situation where 7^th and 10^th lord is same and how it is affecting me. There is no aspect of any other planet on 10^th.

11.     11^th house – The 11^th house is for Income, gains, profits, all articles, prosperity, long-term desires, fulfillment of desires, fulfillment of dreams and ambitions in life. There is no planet and there are eyes of Saturn in it. Since Saturn is strong so, this thing will happen but with delay, hurdles etc. The 11^th lord is here is Venus and 6^th lord as well. The both lord is along with lagna. So, they also act as a strong planet.

12.    12^th house – The 12^th is the most important part of life. It is the happiness of life, pleasures of bed – and all kind of pleasures. Some says 12^th house is the house of spending, if conditions of this house are and all money goes to waste. I don’t agree with this at all. I have seen people with Venus in 12^th house are extremely happy in life. If you don’t have money how can you spend? If you cannot spend how can you have pleasures? Well you know that pleasures are not free of cost. In my chart 12^th house is occupied by Sun and debilitated moon, however aspected by mars. The mars is inspecting in own house actually. So, of course the debilitation cancels. The 12^th house gets heads strong.

Apart than this, there are thousands of lines that I am not just telling you. It takes 100 pages of a book to tell of a person’s Kundli. But these are the basic that a person could learn form a blog or a person can tell regarding his own horoscope.
