Exalted planets are the cause of major misconceptions among the people practicing and interested in astrology. Most of the people interested in astrology and many astrologers believe that the meaning of an Exalted planet in a horoscope is that the planet is strongly positive for the native and is very likely to produce strong positive results regarding the general significances ruled by it, the house it occupies and the aspects it is casting on other planets and houses. For example, an exalted Saturn in Libra is considered very good by many astrologers and it is believed that a person having Saturn placed in Libra in his horoscope is very likely going to be blessed by the good results of Saturn throughout his life. In the same way it is considered that an exalted Sun placed in Aries in a horoscope is a sure indication of very good results which may include securing good posts in government departments and administrative fields among other things.  And similarly all the other planets in their signs of exaltation are considered to be strongly positive and they are associated with strong positive results. But this is just a misconception and the placement of a planet in its sign of exaltation in a horoscope does not imply that the planet is positive in nature. The placement of a planet in its sign of exaltation only indicates that the planet is very strong and the results produced by this planet are going to be very significant ones. But those results may be significantly positive or significantly negative depending upon the nature of the exalted planet in a horoscope. For example an exalted and positive Saturn is capable of producing very strong positive results regarding the significances ruled by it, regarding the house it is placed in and the planets and houses it aspects, while on the other hand there is almost no planet in a horoscope which is as destructive as a negative and exalted Saturn. A negative Saturn placed in Libra can be destructive to extremely destructive and can destroy the significances of the houses and planets aspected by it altogether.  I have personally witnessed many cases where Saturn is exalted and negative in the horoscope and the natives are suffering with great pains and difficulties in different field of their lives depending upon the placement of Saturn in different houses of the horoscope. And the most amazing and upsetting thing is that most of the people suffering heavily due to a negative exalted planet are finding the cause of their miseries and sufferings in some other planet because these people believe that an exalted planet simply means a very strongly positive planet and it is never supposed to cause any harm. And due to this misconception, they are not able to find the planet responsible for their sufferings for very long periods of their lives and sometimes people are not able to find it at all throughout their lives and they just keep guessing about which planet can be the cause of their sufferings and misfortunes. And sometime their misconception about an exalted planet in their horoscope is so strong that they are not willing to believe even an astrologer who tells them that an exalted planet in their horoscope is working negative and is the root cause of most of their problems. Such people refuse to believe the astrologer and look for some other astrologer who can find the cause of their problems with some other planet which is not exalted. And the easiest planets in a horoscope to blame for all the sufferings, misfortunes and problems are debilitated planets.

And talking of debilitated planets again draws attention to one more misconception that prevails strongly among the people interested in astrology and some astrologers. It is generally believed by most of the people and many astrologers that a debilitated planet simply means a negative planet and can only cause problems and sufferings to the native having that debilitated planet in his horoscope. But this is again a misconception and a debilitated planet simply means that it lacks strength and accordingly it may not be able to protect the significances ruled by it in a proper way and so the results produced by such debilitated planet may not be significant ones. But whether those results will be positive or negative has nothing to do with the placement of the planet in its sign of debilitation. The positive or negative results produced by a debilitated planet usually lack the strength and significance which is needed to produce sufficient results. And that is why it is called debilitated or weak. But a debilitated planet can be malefic as well as benefic and it can be even the most benefic planet in a horoscope in spite of being in its sign of debilitation. Talking of which reminds me of one of my clients who is having a strong Dhan Yoga ( a yoga blessing the native with wealth)  in his horoscope which is formed by the most benefic planet in his horoscope which can be considered worst by its sign of placement. This person is having his Venus placed in Virgo which is the sign of debilitation for Venus and to make the matter more interesting, Venus is placed in the 8th house in Virgo. How does that sound. A planet placed in the worst sign and the worst house in a horoscope but still making a strong Dhan Yoga. And this person was told by most of the astrologers he visited that Venus is the most malefic or negative planet in his horoscope and may cause him great problems at any time. This person is having a very beautiful wife, has lead a very luxurious life so far, has traveled at least half of the globe and has made great fortunes during the times when the influence of Venus was very strong. And in fact the most beautiful things of his life have all happened under the influence of Venus. These are all crystal clear indications that Venus is working very positively for this person in spite of being debilitated. But most of the astrologers he visited did not pay any attention to his practical life which was full of gifts given by Venus and Venus alone, and they kept on telling him that Venus is the most malefic planet in his horoscope and he must do remedies to reduce the malefic effect of Venus. This person was also warned by many astrologers that he should never wear the gemstone for Venus throughout his life, otherwise he may suffer serious consequences. Presently this person is my client for a long duration of time and is wearing a Diamond which was the first gemstone that I prescribed for him when he visited me for the very first time. At first this person hesitated in wearing a diamond and told me about many bad things said to him by many astrologers about the bad influence of Venus in his horoscope. But when I explained the strongly positive nature of Venus to him with the help of practical results given by Venus to this person throughout his life, he quickly understood that if all the significances ruled by Venus are producing positive results for him, then how can Venus be negative for him. He got himself a Diamond and wore it straight away to strengthen Venus in his horoscope so that he may benefit from Venus in a more pronounced way. And from the day he wore the diamond, the significances ruled by Venus have all become better and stronger with every passing day.

To summarize, it should be noted that the placement of a planet in its sign of exaltation or in its sign of debilitation is a measure of the strength of the planet, and it should never be mistaken for the functional nature of the planet. Even a debilitated planet can produce great yogas in a horoscope if it is positive in nature while on the other hand an exalted but negative planet can do three times more damage than an average planet.

Prayers to GOD and regular worship might give some strength to Lagna of a person. But just visiting temples, offering free meal and doing poojas are not the exclusive thing in this regard.

Sincerity/honesty towards GOD  should be essence of the prayers. GOD has given everything to living beings and nothing is left out for him/her to enjoy. So many things has been created and thousands of people are not even aware of many surprising places around the globe.

When a person looks at celestial space, which is an unending and can never be carved out with radius or length and breadth of the same. Human mind alone can travel at such speed to reach anywhere. Our sages have visualised all those things without such modern equipments,. as we have now. They could also predict and leave the in formations to us for many centuries. How come they got such power of telling the future?. With so much of modern telescopes,satellites we are unable to predict what will happen next moment/next day/next year?.

Therefore, Our sages had much more modern technology and could do many wonders. This is major reason that even today people believe those great things and worship sages.

Coming back to prayers, look at five elements (fire/air/earth/water/sky) and the planets especially SUN. This planet generates more than 1.4 million degree Celsius heat inside  and when it reaches earth, the temperature reduced to 30 to 50 degrees. How this is happening? and what technology GOD has created?. Similarly water evaporates due to sun heat and forms cloud, to give us very sweet water. How many dirty things being burnt by us get cleaned?. There are so many things happening for which no proper evidence is available.

All these things are being done by GOD only to ensure the survival of living beings. Look at human beings, the way they live?. For anything and everything done by them, they expect reward, material benefits and many more things. Whereas GOD does so much for us and is he ever asked anything in return?.

Over and above this, look at our own body and various parts of the body. Is there any external link or power moving the parts?. Tons and tons of food products go inside the body in a humans life, but still is not sufficient. GOD has given so much freedom to any life to do anything, enjoy and be happy. But look at our way of life.Thousands of rules/regulations and control.

All the above things make one’s athma to strain and get affected. It is to be borne in mind that like GOD doesn’t expect any return from us, one should pray to him in the same way. The person praying to GOD must be as simple as possible, and truly honest from his mind to GOD. There is no need to waste money or do something to attract others and make it big function to show up that he/she is great.

In fact no other person should know your sincerity/honesty to GOD. It is the fundamental responsibility of every one to be true to GOD. The true follower of GOD will always say/practice and live honestly, talk only the truth under any circumstances. He/she will do only good things for whomsoever, even if they had done bad to them. Like five elements, which does its duty irrespective of mistakes/harm done by anyone to them.

Such kind of persons will not have interest in material benefits and they will mingle with celestial space, to enjoy the true GOD present there. These are the people will get the best Lagna in all their birth. Lord Rama’s horoscope is typical example of How Lagna is so powerful, clean and gave direction to ensure earnestness/ truthfulness always, irrespective of any kind of situations. Lord was always speaking/following the truth. Not only that, all his brothers also had to follow his way of life.

That is the kind of life which is the best than any other way of life for generations. Such kind of life and if anyone lived that way, the Lagna will be powerful and they will have the ability to turn around their misfortunes. This is what should be looked into in a horoscope, and if so, predictions are bit easy. Otherwise, if Lagna is very much affected/afflicted, then in most cases, I find , in spite of doing many remedial poojas, they continue to have problems. In some cases till their death, never seen any positive effects of pooja.

I will deal more about Lagna in subsequent articles.

Many people visiting me ask a question as to why i am very particular about Lagna and its assessment, so much than other houses?.

I find still people could not understand the reasons I have been explaining in the articles. It is very simple, only Lagna will give full insight into persons attitude/fortunes etc. Also it will give route map of the person, as to how he will lead his life here.

There are 12 houses in a horoscope and only the Lagna (being the first house), will indicate the person concerned. All the other houses do not indicate his personality, but they will give ideas about his surroundings.

Some weeks back one of my visitor was explaining about his life routines. He was mentioning that whatever work he does, it is for others only and that he is not able to convert it to his benefit. The meaning of this is , he plans to do some work for his own benefit, but someone else just enters in the midway and snatches his fruits. This clearly indicates that his LAGNA is afflicted and tend to force him to do certain things, but other person , who’s Lagna is better than him, gets the rewards.

Some people used to tell me, I do not know how I did such bad things?. This is about a politician, who was doing well when his party was in power, but had to face many legal tangles/complications when lost his power. When he suffers, feel bad as to why I did like that?. You can see here that a person is forced to do acts knowingly, but later he realises. This is exactly called the effects of previous Janma Karma.

There are numerous practical indicators to pin point the effects of previous janma karma. The truth remains that all things happening to a person are all accepted facts and hence realisation that it is the past Karma is not accepted at large. There are many calling the rebirth is nonsense and try to prove that it is only one generation for us and enjoy it out.

Human life is such a complicated issue  and no one one will ever be able to resolve all the mysteries surrounding the world.  Scientific community  might have done many wonders, but  please read back the history and we can see many sages/prophecies have gone beyond what the present day science has reached.  They are much more sophisticated and very high intelligent people, ability to study the planets/universe and have given perfect timings/calenders.  

Many of the prophecies do not have scientific proves and/or historic evidences. But over a period of time, on verification many of them have given perfect predictions. How was it possible for them to predict some centuries in advance?. They must be having some highly sophisticated system to predict and they must have had very high level of education than what we are practicing now. Unfortunately nothing is available now.

Today’s education is aimless in the sense, it only helps to get jobs, higher wages and earn money for luxurious life. But it does not give the person realisation of ones self, ATHMA VISION etc. I have been looking at people with very high so called present day education and I find that they do not have minimum knowledge of life.

Though they all say about GOD, the way in which they talk/behave clearly shows they have no belief in GOD. They do acts in such a way to harm GOD only. But they claim to be followers of GOD. Therefore the present day education gives knowledge to the extent of making money at any cost using any methods.  People are educated to grow Egoistic attitude, never care for others, try to tell lies, cheat others and this is how life is managed. The attitude of almost various sections of the society tends to make people think negatively.

It is seen there are many talking about spirituality, divine practice etc., but they also ultimately aim for material benefits. Bhagavad gita classes and courses are going on in many places, but it is ultimately found that none of them respect GITA in practice.

Everything, all functions, festivals etc., are all is being done as a ritual without any real understanding of the same. Most of the occasions are celebrated by people for the sake of society and not with real understandings. Even prayers/Pooja are done mechanically.

All this points to the fact that Lagna will get more and more afflicted/affected in future to come.
