Implications of the Exaltation of the Lagna Lord in Vedic/ Hindu/ Indian Astrology


EXALTATION OF THE LAGNA LORD:

The best characteristics of the Lagnesh come forth and for noticeability, this phenomenon in Gochar can put things in stark relief. Since the Lagna Lord is the Self, if enemies and inimical things have been concealed or damaging, it will reveal their whereabouts and fight them. It will give thoughts in the Dhi/ discrimination as to how the adversity has eclipsed or worked to detriment in the past. It will please. The word for exaltation is Deeptawastha. Thus, the native wil be Deeptimaan. He shall have an aura of glow and radiance.

Readers may appreciate that it will be Dharmic to step back and bow down humbly to the effulgence of the Lagnesh and not credit oneself with the feeling of positives though all things must come to pass through extant agency. Therefore the corollary is to make a note of what the Ucchha Lagnesh teaches in its sojourn of exaltation. The specific body part it rules in the natural zodiac/ Bha Chakra can receive care and will show improvement. For example, the Sun will show the head, the Moon the thoracic cavity etc.

Since the Lagna Lord is like the Sun, the latter being the Naisargika Karaka/ Natural Significator for the Lagna, the lesser and damaging emotions like envy, jealousy and inferiority, whether indulged in or encountered, will seem antithetical to the inherent structure of the Lagna. Therefore to have the Lagna rise, one should adhere to the traits of the Lagna Lord and the Sun, to whatever extent permissible in a given horoscope. Those with such Grahas in the Upachayas have greater room to exert efforts in the right direction.

A BRIEF LOOK AT THE TWELVE LAGNAS/ ASCENDANTS IN VEDIC ASTROLOGY

People are often curious at the beginning of their astrological quest, to know something of the various facets pertaining to their ‘chart’; in other words, they wish to evaluate the basic propensities pertaining to their Lagnas and their Rashi/ Lagna Kundalis (Kundalis). Also, the Chandra Lagna itself and Gochar furnish other popular areas of curiosity. Lagna is the sign rising on the Eastern horizon at the time of birth and is occupied by a Rāśi (Rashi)/ Vedic sign. The average duration of a sign rising in the Lagna/ Ascendant is two hours and for this reason the twelve Rāśis cover the twenty-four hours duration of the solar day. ( Basic Jyotiṣa principles can be accessed by clicking this link ) Lagna imbues a person with individuality and therefore denotes the self and the personality of the person. It is the first house or Bhāva of the chart and is the commencement point of any horoscopic study. We cannot forget that in all the divisional charts as well there is a Lagna/...

Vedic Astrology: The Charakaraka Replacement and Its Impact

At its deepest core Jyotiṣa is at the driving centre of all Karma. Just like life, if properly appreciated as it must, it has the status of a full-scale on-going project of immense magnitude. Karma and Soul : The Lagna and the Bhavas reckoned from the Lagna in the Rāśi Chakra indicate the physical manifestation of life. In the Varga Chakra the Lagna and the Bhāvas indicate the personality and realities of that specific environment. When we speak of Karma we inevitably speak of the soul as it is the soul which must carry and exhaust the Karma through rebirth. Charakāraka - Matters pertaining to the soul are studied and deciphered through the Charakāraka in Vedic Astrology. The Charakāraka are the temporal significators (Naisargika Kāraka) for various matters at the level of the soul and the Karma. The Charakāraka are decided on the basis of longitude of arc traversed by the planets including minutes and seconds of arc, and sometimes fractions of seconds of arc. The Eight Cha...

Transits of Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu in 2025 in Vedic Astrology

Spring and summer of 2025 will be marked by notable shifts in transit of the slow-moving planets, Guru, Shani and Rahu-Ketu.  Important transits have the capacity to modify the results of the Dasha. In Vedic astrology/ Jyotisha, therefore, the two phenomena have to be examined together.  Jupiter/ Guru will move to Mithuna Rashi/ Gemini on May 14, 2025 and immediately thereafter the Nodes of the Moon, Rahu and Ketu also transit to Kumbha/ Aquarius and Simha/ Leo respectively. Shani/ Saturn will move to Meena Rashi/ Pisces on March 29, 2025.  Broadly speaking, in highly beneficial Dashas, positive transits lead to an icing on the cake situation, while negative transits can dampen the results or even negate them for a while. The effect can be construed accordingly for adverse Dashas, and so on.  It is well-known that Shani is the only Graha who gives added difficulties when He is strong. But a weak malefic is not to be desired because He becomes far more malefic. In oth...
