Planets in signs and houses PLANETARY COMBINATIONS FOR ADMINISTRATIVE AND HIGH JUDICIAL OFFICERS

PLANETARY COMBINATIONS FOR ADMINISTRATIVE AND HIGH JUDICIAL OFFICERS

Often there is a question as to how people having different horoscope enter the same profession. The simple answer to this could be that their horoscopes must bear some similar factors.

To locate such factors, an investigation into the nativities of those coming under the same profession would be necessary on the following lines :

1.  The nature and related characteristics of a particular profession should first be ascertianed and analysed. 2.  Likewise, the indications of the Zodiacal houses should also be balanced in the features of the profession (e.g., 6th house in a horoscope is the house of government service as explained hereinafter.)

Thus the planets and the Zodiacal houses, so established for a particular profession, would go to make the common or similar factors for each profession. An attempt is made here in respect of administrative officers in public administration. Public administration has been defined as the "Art and science of Management as applied to the affairs of the state" and also as "that part of science of asministration, which has to do with the goverment and thus, concern itself primarily, with the executive branch, where the work of the govermnment is done."

The functions of the administrative officer (I.A.S.) are rather undefined and unlimited. However, in various capacities , they are of different natures. In one capacity, one of his important function is to tender advice to the political executives with his inherent talent, knowledge of technicalities of administration and his reservoir of information and thus, help in formulation of policies and enactment of laws. His task in this respect goes even further. In order to execute the laws and the public policy, he sets-up the work of programme-planning; and thus, arranges to maintain co-ordination.

It will not be out of season to mention that instead of considering the planets in their individual capacity, an astrologer may normally, focus on looking for Raja Yogas. One, two or more such Yogas in the horoscope may lead one to mistake them as qualified for the I.A.S. job.

The view is not dependable for the following reasons :

1.   Firstly, a Raja Yoga is different from Rajya Yoga, and the former is not be confused for the latter. 2.  The Raja Yoga in a horoscope indicates health, happiness and comforts and luxuries of life as per their constituents, and also certainly indicates political power but it would require a good deal of study and investigation before one could definitely in what manner a Raja Yoga is likely to manifest. 3.  The Raja Yoga in different horoscopes are generally, of different type and strength (vide horoscope under review for ready reference), except one or the other of them being common, but that too, not in all cases. 4.  The Raja  Yogas are not always dependable, rather are ineffective, if the component planets suffer from any inability due to maleficence, and thus, are rendered powerless to give results of the Yoga. 5.  Moreover, it is also to be noted that the Raja Yogas, no doubt, have a generial impact on the horoscope, but they fructify mainly when the Dasa-Bhukti of the palnets forming the Yoga come to operate in the life-time of the individual concerned, which may not necessarily coincide with the time of entrance into the profession. 6.  Over and above all, it is also very pertinent to see whether there is any malefic or evil Yoga in the horoscope, in addition to the benefics ones, which if it exists, will mar the results of even the benefics Yogas, just as a drop of poison in a jar of milk spoils all the milk.

As such the Raja Yogas do not, in themselves, justify the making of an administrative officer and cannot be accepted as common factors.

We have to search for planetary influences, in the individual capacity of planets and the Zodiacal indications by assessment of :

1.  The status of the planets amongst themselves; 2.  Inherent features, nature, qualities and tendencies of planets; 3.  Residential strength of the planets in the relation and association with other planets; 4.  Functional value of the planets with reference to a particular Lagna; and 5.  The nature and tendencies of the Zodiacal signs or houses.

Status of Planets According to Jataka Parijata (II - 2) ----

meaning, that the Sun and the Moon are sovereigns; Jupiter and Venus are counsellors; Mercury is the heir-apparent (young prince); Mars is the commander-in-chief; and Saturn is the servant. In saying that the Sun and the Moon are sovereigns, it must be understood that the Sun is the king, the Moon being the Queen. Similarly, Jupiter is the minister (External Affairs) and Venus is his wife (Minister for Internal Affairs or the matters inside the house). Further, the Sun rules the six signs from Leo taken in the negative side while the Moon is the lord of the other six signs, from Cancer counted in the opposite side. It is by these two luminaries that the supremacy over the other 10 signs has been given to Mars and the other planets. That is to say, the 2nd place from the Sun in Leo, his throne-seat, (negatively) has been alloted to Mercury, the heir-apparent. The 3rd place has been given to Venus who is the Minister of Internal Affairs. The 4th house has been given over to Mars who is the commander-in-chief. The 5th house is the house of knowledge and External Affairs, and has been alloted to Jupiter. To the servant Saturn, has been alloted the 6th house. A similar order would follow in the case of the Moon with reference to the signs under her sway counted from Cancer (her throne - seat). As explained above, the 6th place from the sovereign's throne, (the Sun in Leo) has been alloted to saturn. In other words, the 6th house is the house of government service and Saturn is the government servant. The 6th house becomes all the more significant as it stands identical with the 9th (Bhagyastana) from the 10th (Karmastana); and also the 10th (Karmastana) from the 9th (the Bhagyastana); again, it is the 5th from the 2nd house and the 2nd from the 5th house. Further, no less important  is the position of the 11th house, the house of gains and income, as it stands 6th from the 6th house. Hence, in this context, the 11th  house also plays an important role. Further in consideration of the status of the planets amongst themselves, Jupiter (minister for sovereign), Mars (commander-in-chief i.e., possessing executive powers) and Saturn (servant of the sovereign), represent fitness for the administrative job. Accordingly, for the purpose of investigation, we proceed ahead to evaluate these three planets with reference to their natural, residential, functional and other properties. Saturn Amongst other indications, Saturn signifies servile duty, whole sovereignty (Uttarakalamrita   V -- 47-50); further, Saturn controls longevity, livehood, cause of death, prosperity and adversity. Besides, he represents general masses, public responsibilities, mass contact and political diplomacy. Ordinarily, as a general dictum of astrology, any planets in his own, exaltation, friendly house or Moolatrikona Rasi or Varga and Amsa, will promote the happiness of the person concerned. (Uttarakalamrita, IV -- 13). Besides, Saturn is predominant in his own Drekana, especially, when in Upachayas (3,6,10,11) and also in all the signs when retrograde (Jataka Parijata II -- 67).  Again, in case Saturn acquires beneficience by temporal position, its aspects  are productive of good. Saturn in the 1st house (Ascendant) identical with Libra, Sagittarius and Pisces signs, according to Garga is capable of conferring royalty (i.e., power, authority and prosperity) on the native. Saturn in the 1st is capable of conferring authority and power. It is apparently so because Saturn in the Ascendant aspects the 7th (house of diplomacy) and the 10th (the house of livelihood, respect and dignity). And, he also aspects the 8th, the house of vocation. He sends exceedingly powerful rays in his 3rd and 10th aspect , his quarter glance (J.P. II - 31). Again, in the case of Pisces Ascendant, he is the lord of the 11th (Capricorn), in which sign he indicates honours, authority, position and financial gains. An almost parallel view is also expressed in Jataka Parijata (VII - 57) It means that when Saturn is in the rising sign identical with Sagittarius, Pisces, Libra, Aries, Capricorn or Aquarius, the native will be lord of men, handsome and intelligent, and will lead a town or village. When in the 4th (Simhasana or house of authority), he aspects the 6th, the 10th and the Ascendant. One becomes a great diplomat or high-positioned government servant and wields immerse power and gets success in foreign countries. When in the 7th, where Saturn gets Digbala, he becomes very powerful and promises  a prominent high position in public life. In the 10th, normally, he gives reversals in life and causes sudden downfall if afflicted; but when exalted and aspected by a benefic 10th lord, he extends splendour, honour, grandeur and reputation. He is the Karaka for the 6th house (J. P. II - 51). Assuming lordship of the 9th and the 10th  from Lagna, in the case of Taurus Ascendant, he becomes highly auspicious. Saturn, when he bestows blessings, has no limits and can take one very high in all areas of life. meaning, that Saturn always gives all desirable things when in the 8th. Mars As regards Mars, he is called 'Vakra' (crooked) also, meaning diplomat. He also represents kingship, royal aspect, authority and power to punish, magistrate, criminal cases, energy, courage, tact, action, executive capacity, service under a king, commander, land, lord of men and mounting a vehicle. He also indicates treasure and litigation. What an administrative officer needs in the performance of his duties is, mainly the executive capacity, tact and diplomacy, timely and effective action and determination to assert authority , to take wrong-doers to task for maintenance of law and order and to secure the welfare of the people by exercising magisterial powers vested in him. These are the qualities of Mars. He is, thus, the strong indicator for executive service under the government. Like Saturn, the magnitude of his strength will have its say in raising the position of the native high. As regards the strength of Mars, he is also the Karaka for the 6th house, (the house of service under the government). He has abundant strength in his Drekanna, in the 12th, the 8th, the 11th, the 10th and the 1st signs, in retrogression, in his navamsa and gives prosperity when he is in the 10th from Lagna and also  when he is in Cancer (J. P. II - 63). Besides, like others planets, he is strong in his exaltation, own house, in a friendly house and Moolatrikona Rasi and bestows immense benefits and makes one a leader. He is mighty strong in Virgo, Gemini and Sagittarius when without the Sun. He gets strong even in his enemy's camp. (Uttarakalamrita V - 15). He gets auspicious in the 8th in the matter of service,as in the case of Mr. Morarji Desai who started his career as an administrative officer with exalted Mars in his 8th. The 8th house is the house of vocation as well; and Mars is the Lord of 8th of the Zodiac (Kalapursha). Hence, Mars in the 8th as lord of the 8th is very significant in service matters; from the 8th, he aspects the 11th also. Mars enjoys Digbala in the 10th and gives prosperity. He gets exalted in the 10th sign of the Zodiac. Mars in the 10th makes one the beacon light of the family. Mars in the 10th house gives  executive ability, capacity for leadership and prosperity. He becomes specially strong as lord of the 9th in the 10th and makes one a judge or magistrate. In association with Saturn, he gives brilliant results. According to Kalamrita (IV - 8), Meaning, if Mars and Saturn be strongly placed i.e., exalted, in own or friendly house with benefic aspect, and occupy the 2nd and the 10th houses from the Lagna, the native will be highly praised in public and will be a great personage. According to Jataka Parijata (VII - 9) : When full moon in the 9th occupies exaltation, own or friendly house; and Mars and Saturn occupy the 2nd and the 10th, a ruler of the earth is born.               Further, Jataka Parijata (VII - 44) says : If Saturn and Mars be in the 10th, 5th or 1st house and full Moon be in a sign owned by Jupiter, the person born will be a king. Jupiter Jupiter holds supremacy over all other planets as the preceptor of the gods. He represents the throne, treasure, royal honour, intellect, brilliancy, moving in village, travelling in a vehicle bordered on four sides (Uttarakalamrita, V- 38-41); legal affairs, diplomacy, power of discussion, respect and reputation, guardianship, wisdom, minister also knowledge and dignity. Jupiter is the giver of health, wealth and progeny. His aspect and association are said to be extremely beneficial. All of these qualities of Jupiter have close identity with the status and duties of an administrative officer. He holds high supreme position in the government. He stands strong like other planets in his own, exaltation, friendly house and Moolatrikona Rasi. He assumes power in Pisces, Sagittarius, Cancer, Aquarius and also in his debilitation sign. He is auspicious in the rising sign, in the 4th as well as th 10th from Lagna and gives much wealth. He gets Digbala in Lagna; and thus gets strong, aspecting the 5th, 7th and the 9th with full aspect. He is auspicious in his oblique aspect (Jataka Parijata II - 31). Jupiter's aspect over any planet as a natural benefic is of weighty importance apart from the fact that he may be temporarily ill-placed. The opposition aspect with the Moon is extremely good. Jupiter in conjuction with Mars makes the native loving, revered, wealthy and acquainted with the science of computation (Jataka Parijata VIII - 4). If the combination happens to be in the 10th house, it makes one a judge or magistrate. In relationship with Saturn, both being philosophical planets, Jupiter tends to give philosophical views or an ability for impartial assessment of things. Thus, Jupiter in strength and especially, having to do anything with the 6th or the 11th, promises strong indications for an administrative job under the government. Appendix A IAS Officers Sl.

Conclusion Now, in order to find the common astrological factors, the status and duties etc., of the I.A.S. officers (first stage of the investigation) on one side area, in the first instance, to be balanced with the planetary influence and Zodiacal indications (the second stage) on the other. The close study of the details on both sides in the foregoing paragraphs, shows the two sides are found quite balancing. That is to say, that the duties of the I.A.S. officers are duly contained in and corresponding to the status, nature and the tendencies of the three planets, Jupiter, Mars and Saturn. It is further to be seen how far the influence of these planets is contained in their horoscopes. The details of analysis therefore are shown in Appendix A. These details go to show that these planets are duly placed in the horoscopes, in auspicious and benefic and strong positions and are also simultaneously associated with and related to the 6th or the 11th or both houses. Needless to say, the stronger and more beneficially the planets (Jupiter, Mars and Saturn) are placed in a horoscope, the higher would be the position of the native concerned, even going to the level of I.A.S. officers or equivalent, depending upon the degree of beneficence and strength of the planets. Tenure of Service As regards the second phase or the tenure of service, it is the stage when these officers work in different assignments. Here, the difference in the careers of the IAS officers begins when they are appointed as such and have come to the actual field of service. They are then alloted different assignments that carry work and amenities of different natures. Some of these carry facilities like conveyance, glamour of supreme authority and power with all paraphernalia and insignia of royalty; whereas in other cases, such as secretariat assignments or, the like, they carry compartively few amenities and little splendour. IPS Officers Now as regards the IPS officers, they are also likewise administrative officers in the public administration, governed by the same system of recruitment as IAS officers. They are similarly responsible for law and order and well being of the people in general. So naturally, the same planetary combination of Jupiter, Mars and Saturn associated or related with the 6th and/or the 11th house of the Zodiac, as in the case of IAS officers, would apply to them. The only distinguishing point between the two classes of officers is that Jupiter in the case of IPS officers will be a bit weaker compared to IAS officers.  Appendix B IPS Officers Mars Saturn Jupiter 8. 1. 6th and 11th lord. 2.

High Judicial Officers As regards judicials officers, they too are recruited to the job through competitive examinations like administrative officers. They are also officers under the government, with status and authority, and they are empowered to punish the evil-doers. By exercise of law in the public interest, by way of their jufgements (of law), they create a sense of law in the public to make then law-abiding and also on the other hand, providing a sense of security under law to the public in general. The distinguishing point in this case in that their place and system of work in the performance of their duties differ from those of the administrative officers. They have not to work practically in the field but they exercise law in their office or court rooms by pronouncing the judgement of law. In fact, they put the law of the country into action. It is very well said that law is a silent judge, whereas a judge is a speaking law. This specific aspect require further probe into the nature etc., of the planets to locate the particular planetary influence concurring with it.

In this context, excluding Saturn, Mars and Jupiter, we should look at Venus out of the remaining four planets, namely, Venus, Mercury, the Sun and the Moon. Venus is the minister (counsellor for internal affairs i.e., matters inside house), rules the kingdom or government authority, literacy composition, government seal (Uttarakalamrita,  IV - 42 1/2 - 45) and furnished rooms. On the other hand, the judicial officers administer justice having authority vested in them by the government, through judgement of law (i.e., legal literacy compositions) in their well furnished judgement halls. Thus, very obviously the distinguishing features of their working system and place fall in with the qualities and tendencies of Venus. Venus is auspicious in his exaltation sign, in his varga in the 3rd, the 4th, the 6th and the 12th houses from the Lagna, in conjuction with the Moon; in retrograde motion and when he is in advance of the Sun (Vide, Jataka Parijata II - 66). Venus in the 12th will prove auspicious except when he is in the Rasi or Navamsa owned by Saturn. Venus as well as Jupiter become fully favorable, when in the house of a benefic and in conjuction with the lord of the same. Venus will do good when in the 6th house (Uttara Kalamrita IV - 9) and does not lose strength even when eclipsed. He has Digbala in the 4th. When Venus in strong occupying the 11th or the 12th, a king's peer takes birth (J.P. VII - 10). When Venus occupies the Lagna in Aswini Nakshatra and is aspected by all other planets, the person will be senior in the family destined to destroy the whole host of enemies (J.P. VII - 6). In the Appendix A, B and C have been detailed the positions of the planets (Jupiter, Mars Saturn in case administrative officers, IAS and IPS and also Venus in the case of judicial officers) forming the common factors for a common career. wrt. aryabhatt.
