Astrological classics give
quite a few combinations (Yogas) involving the 9th Bhava and the 9th
lord indicative of luck and prosperity.
According to Jataka
Parijata, the lord of the 9th Bhava occupying a quadrant (Kendra) or
a Trine (Kona) in strength and the Ascendant aspected by its lord indicates
good fortune. Added to these if the lord of the 9th Bhava or his
dispositor (i.e. the lord of the sign occupied by the 9th lord) and
the lord of the Ascendant occupy their exaltation or own signs, the Yoga
bestows great and lasting happiness.
While studying the 9th
Bhava, or for that matter, any Bhava, it is essential to keep in view the
Ascendant, for it is a well recognized principle of astrology that the results
of Bhavas as have any relationship with the Ascendant or its lord by way of
aspect, occupation, Kendra disposition etc. would be surely experienced.
It is also necessary while
examining the 9th Bhava signifying Bhagya not to overlook the 5th
Bhava, for on the principle of `Bhavat Bhava’ the 9th from the 9th
Bhava is the 5th Bhava. Hence both these Bhavas signify Poorvapunya,
which manifests in this life as Bhagya. Further even Dusthana lords are said to
lose their malefic effects, when they are in conjunction with the lord of the 5th
Bhava – such is the benefic nature of the 5th lord.
The combination of these
two lords of Konas with the lord of the Ascendant in a Kendra other than the 7th
is a high Raja Yoga, which in the modern context would mean exercise of
political or administrative powers. Such a combination even in the 7th
Bhava can mean fortune through partner-in-life.
Mutual exchange of the
lords of the 5th and the 9th Bhavas is a Raja Yoga, which
would confer political or ruling powers.
Saravali says that the
full Moon, Jupiter, Venus or Mercury endowed with strength (Shadbala) alone or
in conjunction occupying the 9th Bhava confers on the person
prosperity, good longevity and even ruling powers. Even a malefic planets in
the 9th house, if it happens to be its own or Moolathrikona sign and
is aspected by benefics makes the person virtuous.
For that matter, any of
the seven planets, when exalted in the 9th Bhava blesses the person
with wealth, prosperity and virtue; and if the exalted planet occupying the 9th
Bhava has the aspect of a strong benefic planet, the potency of the yoga is
greatly enhanced.
The lord of the Ascendant,
whether a benefic or malefic, occupying the 9th Bhava is also
auspicious and highly beneficial.
According to Phaladeepika,
Jupiter, Mercury, Venus and the Moon endowed with strength occupying the 9th
Bhava in conjunction with or aspected by a friendly planet generates a Raja
Yoga, and the person having this yoga will be an object of veneration and
worship by the masses.
The 9th Bhava
and or its lord figure conspicuously in such auspicious Yogas as Bhagya Yoga,
Lakshmi Yoga, Dhatrutwa Yoga, Dharma-Karmadhipa Yoga, Srimathi Yoga, to mention
only a few.
When the 9th
Bhava is aspected by a strong benefic planet from the Ascendant, the 3rd
or the 5th, bhagya Yoga arises, which confers on the person good
fortune and great wealth. (It will be observed that Jupiter, the greatest
benefic alone will be able to aspect the 9th from the Ascendant and
the 5th Bhava, while all benefic planets can aspect the 9th
from the 3rd Bhava).
The lord of the 9th
Bhava occupying his own or exaltation sign identical with a quadrant (Kendra)
or Trine (Kona) and the lord of the Ascendant also endowed with strength
generates Lakshmi Yoga. This auspicious learning, renown, handsome appearance
and all the comforts of life.
When the exalted lord of
the 9th Bhava is aspected by a benefic planet and the 9th
Bhava is tenanted by a benefic planet, Dhatritwa Yoga arises. This Yoga makes
the person munificent and generous with his wealth.
