The Yoga is caused by
Budha occupying his own or exaltation sign which are quadrants (Kendra) from
lagna. It is note-worthy that the signs owned by Budha (Mercury) are placed
next to those of the Sun and the Moon – two luminaries. This shows the intimate
contact of Mercury with the two princely planets. This Yoga manifests on only
those who are born in Common/Dwiswabhava rasis or signs. Of all the seven
planets, Budha alone gets exalted in his own sign. He belongs to Prithvi tatwa
(Earth-element) and his exaltation place, Kanya (Virgo) too belongs to this
group. He represents “speech” of Kala purusha (the time personified).
This Maha Purusha Yoga
manifests only to those born in Mithuna, Kanya, Dhanur and Meena. For Dhanur
lagna, Budha in the 7th house becomes a first rate baadhaka even
though he confers Maha Purusha Yoga. Similarly Budha becomes a first rate
Baadhaka while occupying Virgo (Kanya), its own house. He sometimes becomes a
Maraka or a death-inflicting planet, for these two ascendants.
The term Budha means one
who is intelligent. The word is derived from the root, “Budha” – to understand.
The planet governs intelligence as his name implies. Any type of education – be
it scientific or philosophical – must necessarily have and enjoy the full
support from this planet. A man who is quick-witted or who is of erratic
behaviour is said to be Mercurian in character.
Sharpness of intellect is
bestowed by strongly placed Mercury. A dull-witted person is governed by a
badly placed or weak Budha.
Mercury indicates one’s
temperament, intelligence, presence of mind and argumentative nature. The
superiority of human beings over all other living beings is attributable to the
force of the intellect generated or governed by Budha. Moon governs one’s mind.
Intellect is the product of one’s active mind and its powers. Budha is known as
the son of the moon. Budha is also fond of fun. He influences mainly brain and
nerves and endows fertility of thinking power and thought, eloquence of speech,
sensible arguments and intelligent conversation. But Budha makes the native
somewhat reserved.
Strong Budha in a
horoscope makes a native capable of learning many subjects. Such native can
judge people at a glance and assess correctly the moods of people, the depth of
truth and the ability of one’s mental pursuits. Those who have weak Mercury
think pervertedly.
Budha invariably learns
towards the nature of the planet with whom he is related by conjunction or
aspect. Therefore, the effect of Budha as a rule gets modified mutates-mutandis. He is responsible for
speech, governs bile and wind and makes one rational. Tongue, nose, bronchitis,
bowels, skin, nerves and mental stability complaints are all governed by Budha.
