Maraka Dasha Series – Scorpio Ascendant.
Today, let’s see Maraka
Planets for Scorpio Ascendant. As I am going through this dasha, I may have
more information to share based on my experience. Please go through the
introductory article on Maraka Dasha Series (https://www.astrosaxena.com/Killer1)
here.
Maraka Houses and
Maraka Lords – As we know that 2nd house and 7th house
are Maraka Houses. For Scorpio ascendant, 2nd house/Sagittarius is
ruled by Jupiter and 7th house/Taurus is ruled by Venus. So, Jupiter-Venus
become their Maraka Lords or Maraka Planets.
Planets in Maraka
Houses – Likewise, if someone has planets in 2nd house/Sagittarius
or 7th house/Taurus, those planets will also be considered as Maraka
Planets as their dashas will also activate Maraka Houses.
Nature of Maraka Planet
– Now, good thing is that Venus and Jupiter both are natural benefic planet.
This indicates that even if a Scorpio ascendant person is going through a
maraka dasha of Jupiter-Venus or Jupiter-Venus then it may bring some
death-like situations but it may still bring some benefits to person while
going through those death-like situations.
Lords of Other Houses –
Now, let’s see what other houses Jupiter-Venus are ruling for a Scorpio
ascendant person.
- Venus rules 12th house/Libra of losses, expenses, end of the things and foreign lands/spirituality/imagination. It is one of the Dushthana Houses.
- Jupiter rules 5th house/Pisces of education, creativity and children etc. It is one of the Trikon houses.
- So if we compare then Venus is more troublesome planet than Jupiter for the Scorpio ascendants because not only it is a maraka planet but it rules 1 dushthana house too. It shows that person needs to be more careful in Venus dasha rather than Jupiter dasha if he/she is a Scorpio ascendant.
Nature of Planets in
Maraka Houses – Likewise, we need to see the nature of planets which are in
maraka houses. Like, if they are natural benefic/malefic or functional
benefic/malefic or Dushthana Lords etc. The more malefic nature these planets
keep within them, higher the chances that their dashas can be difficult for
person and he needs to be more cautious during their dashas.
Dignity of Maraka Lords
– The most important factor is in which sign Jupiter-Venus are placed in a Scorpio
Ascendant chart as it will decide its dignity and strength.
- Jupiter should be in own/friendly/neutral/mool trikon/exaltation sign. It would mean that person can manage to go through a maraka dasha with some positivity and can even gain during its dasha especially in matters of career, authority and wealth due to gentle/benefic nature and good dignity in these signs. But if Jupiter is in enemy/fall/debilitated sign or sitting with malefic or under yogas like Paap Kartari Yoga which further weakens the planet, then it shows that person needs a lot of awareness and caution at disposal while dealing with its dasha. For example, if Jupiter is in 3rd house/Capricorn where it is debilitated then Jupiter dasha can be troublesome for person and can bring death-like situations but if Jupiter is in 5th house/Pisces then it can be a much better time period in comparison.
- With Venus again, it should be in own/friendly/neutral/mool trikon/exaltation sign means that person can manage to go through a maraka dasha with some positivity and can even gain during its dasha especially in matters of career, authority and wealth due to gentle/benefic nature and good dignity in these signs. But if Venus is in enemy/fall/debilitated sign or sitting with malefic or under yogas like Paap Kartari Yoga which further weakens the planet, then it shows that person needs a lot of awareness and caution at disposal while dealing with its dasha. For ex, if Venus is in 11th house/Virgo then Venus dasha will activate 7th house/Taurus, 11th house/Libra and as Venus is in debilitation sign, it can bring challenges during this dasha to the person himself in matters of health/relationship both but if Venus is in 7th house/Taurus where Venus is in own then it shows that they can sail through this maraka dasha and can eventually make some benefits too. It means that if Venus is in weak dignity then they need to be extra careful about the health matters and they should be taking care even before start of maraka dasha to safely sail through this dasha.
Dignity of Planets in
Maraka Houses – Likewise, we need to check the dignity and strength of planets
that are placed in maraka houses. Again, better the dignity, higher the chances
that person will sail through maraka dasha without much damage. But if dignity
is poor then an extra care is necessary. For example, Sun in 7th
house/Taurus is in enemy sign and can cause health issues during its dasha
& person needs to be cautious during maraka dasha but if Moon is in 7th
house/Taurus where it is in exaltation then person can sail through maraka
dasha and can actually gain in this time as planet is in exaltation.
How Dashas will
activate Maraka Houses? – Now, Maraka Houses for Scorpio Ascendant can get
activated during dasha of Venus or Jupiter or of any planet which is in 2nd
house/Sagittarius or 7th house/Taurus. Also, the dasha of lord of
sign/nakshatra in which Venus or Jupiter is placed will activate them and
maraka dasha. For example, if Jupiter is in Capricorn/Sravana then Saturn dasha
or Moon dasha can also activate Jupiter and maraka houses. Likewise, for
planets in maraka houses, their sign/nakshatra lord dasha can bring maraka
results. Finally, we need to take into consideration dashas at all 3 major
levels, i.e. Mahadasha/Antardasha/Pratyantar dasha. Overall, we need to be
inclusive in this matter as it can be matter of even life or death.
Annual Transits –
Likewise, I don’t think that we should wait till annual transits of planets
start giving us results after activation of maraka houses through dashas. As I
said, we need to be cautious, careful and aware even before the beginning of
maraka dashas, so that we will have enough time in hand to safeguard ourselves.
As always, awareness is the only remedy.
Maraka Planets Impact –
Now, following things can cause actual death, metaphorical death or death of
other things due to maraka planets –
- As usually, 2nd house/7th house are related with family life, relationship or wealth matters. So, these things can bring a death-like situation to person.
- As Jupiter-Venus themselves are karaka of relationship/marriage, it again shows that relations/marriage/spouse/children can bring a death-like situation to person.
- As Jupiter-Venus both represent wealth, it shows that too much of wealth or lack of wealth can bring a death-like situation to person.
- As Venus represents lavish life, the addiction to lavish life and luxuries/conveniences can bring a death-like situation to person.
- As Jupiter-Venus both are teachers, it shows that person can be so much busy with his knowledge oriented pursuits that he may have no time for people and family members in his life. It is like a symbolic death of person.
- As Jupiter represents health issues related with Fat, Gall Bladder, Liver, Arteries etc and Venus represents health issues related with Sugar, Diabetes, Kidney etc, these health issues can bring a death-like situation to person.
- As Jupiter also rules 5th house/Pisces, it shows that matters of education, creativity and children can bring a death-like situation to person. It again means that person will be so busy in these matters that he would have no time for anyone else. As 5th house also represents love/romance matters, the love interest can bring a death-like situation for person.
- Likewise, Venus also rules 12th house/Libra, it shows that matters of spirituality, foreign lands and huge financial losses can bring death-like situations.
- As Jupiter-Venus both are Gurus, person may get such Gurus in life which can bring a death-like situation to person. Like, myself taking Sannyas at Osho Ashram and taking a new identity altogether is nothing but a symbolic death. And all this happened in Jupiter-Venus dasha only.
- Jupiter also represents Spirituality. So, the person may be busy with his spiritual pursuits which can again create a situation of a symbolic death. Also, if Jupiter is not well placed then person can get fake Gurus or Con-Man who can bring death-like situations for them.
- Then in whichever houses Venus/Jupiter are sitting, person can feel a death-like scenario in matters of that house, especially if they are also in bad dignity. Like, if Venus is in 11th house/Virgo then Venus dasha can also bring a death-like situation to person’s elder sibling. But as always, it is about dignity of planets involved. So, if Jupiter-Venus are in good dignity then it shows that even while going through a death-like situation, person will be able to gain something. But if Maraka lords are in bad dignity with no other support, then person needs to be extra cautious to minimise the damage.
- Finally, we need to check the planets sitting in maraka houses. The things/people they are karaka-of and things/people represented by the house ruled by these planets will bring death-like circumstances to person. Like, if Sun is in 7th house/Taurus then person or his Father can have a death-like situation due to heart or brain related diseases or due to any other significances of Sun.
Hope this helps. Thanks,
SPB
