The week ahead

THE celestial outlook is pleasant for this week with abundant positive aspects to the energetic planets Mars, Jupiter and Mercury. Mars in Sagittarius opposes Jupiter in Gemini on Tuesday and the Sun in Gemini on Wednesday.

The Sun then conjoins Jupiter, the planet of expansion and luck, on Thursday, and Mercury, the planet of communications, on Saturday. Mercury continues its retrograde journey this week, but these other cosmic influences will create a forward motion of a social nature nonetheless.

Queries answered

What is Lagnadhi Yoga? What are its benefits? When are they likely?

B. M. Rao, Mumbai-32.

There are three positions from Lagna for benefic planets to occupy to produce Lagnadhi Yoga. The positions are 6,7 and 8, counting from Rasi. A natural benefic in the 6th from Lagna confers long life; in the 7th from Lagna, popularity and fame; and in the 8th from Lagna, a generous disposition. From Rasi, a natural benefic in the 6th can raise the native to be a minister; in the 7th to be an acclaimed leader; and in the 8th, to be the owner of wealth, large estate and influence.

For these benefits to actualise, of course, the Lagna and its Lord must be strong and free from deleterious aspects. The benefits of Lagnadhi Yoga will be realised when the sequence of Maha Dasas and Bhukthis allows the causative benefic planets to rule in the main, or have favourable sub-rule periods.
