Double transit's little secret

When a marriage happens, we usually see a double influence of transiting Saturn and Jupiter onto the 7th house or the 7th lord either from the Moon OR from the
Ascendant. If Saturn and Jupiter are retrograde during the transit, they also give their aspects from the previous house. (Note: I heard one astrologer say that if
transiting Jupiter is in the first degree of a sign and Saturn is in the first three degrees of a sign their aspects are seen from the previous house!).

But we cannot rely on transits only. Don’t forget that the running Vimshottari dasha has to also be supportive of this event as well as some others factors (Narayana
Dasha, Chara Dasha, etc.). I want to share this little secret I’ve learned in regards to marriage prediction with the use of the double transit. Here it is:

The transiting Saturn and Jupiter “turn on” the house of marriage by simultaneously aspecting the 7th house or the 7th lord (from the Moon or from the ASC) but see if
they also aspect the Natal Mars or the 7th house from Mars. But! If transiting Rahu is giving his aspect onto this point, then marriage may not happen.

So, let’s make a list of things we look for to make a good prediction.
1.Transiting Jupiter is aspecting the 7th house or the 7th lord from the Ascendant OR the Moon.
2.Transiting Saturn is aspecting the 7th house or the 7th lord from the Ascendant OR the Moon.
3.Transiting Jupiter is aspecting the natal Mars or the 7th house from the natal Mars (we do not include aspects onto the 7th lord from Mars as far as I know)
4.Transiting Saturn is aspecting the natal Mars or the 7th house from the natal Mars.

5.Transiting Rahu is not aspecting the natal Mars or 7th house from it.

Let’s make a prediction based on these principles and see if any other principles mentioned in the previous post come into play.
Jupiter enters the sign of Libra on the 11th of September and Saturn enters the sign of Sagittarius on the 26 th of October. Rahu will be in Cancer and Ketu in Capricorn
until the 7th of March, 2019. Jupiter will stay in Libra until the 11th of October, 2018, so I am particularly interested in this Jupiter's transit over the sign of Libra
taking place from Sep 11th 2017 to Oct 11, 2018. Jupiter is transiting over a sign which falls into the 7th house of a natural zodiac, so we can expect a real marriage
BOOM with many people getting married during this period.

Here we see a chart with Virgo Ascendant, Moon in Sagittarius, Rahu and Saturn (R) in Capricorn, Mars in Aquarius, Venus in Pisces, Sun and Me (R) in Aries,
Jupiter in Gemini and Ketu in Cancer. The beige area around the chart displays the abode-mentioned transits: Jupiter in Libra, Saturn in Sagittarius, Rahu
in Cancer and Ketu in Capricorn.

Blue-colored houses are those under the aspect of transiting Saturn, yellow-colored houses are those under the aspect of transiting Jupiter, yellow & blue colored
houses are those which are aspected by both Jupiter and Saturn.

1. Transiting Jupiter in Libra is aspecting the 7th house from the Moon by its 9th aspect and the 7th lord from the Moon (Mercury) by its 7th aspect. (√)
1.2. Transiting Jupiter in Libra is also aspecting the 7th lord (Jupiter) from the Ascendant by its 9th aspect. (√)
Note: Transiting Jupiter and Saturn need to aspect the 7th house or the 7th lord either from the Moon OR the Ascendent, it doesn't need to be both, but if it happens
from both points, more power to the prediction, it's another contibuting factor for sure.
2. Transiting Saturn is aspecting the 7th house from the Moon by its 7th aspect. (√)
2.1. Transiting Saturn is aspecting the 7th lord (Jupiter) from the Ascendant. (√)
3. Transiting Jupiter is aspecting the natal Mars in Aquarius by its 5th aspect. (√)
4. Transiting Saturn is aspecting the natal Mars in Aquarius by its 3rd aspect. (√)
5. Transiting Rahu is aspecting the 7th house from the natal Mars (Leo) by its 2nd aspect. (-)

Note: Rahu may or may not prevent a marriage from happening, it depends upon the overriding factors.

Since this transit with Jupiter in Libra and Saturn in Sagittarius turns on the 7th house from both the Moon and the Ascendant, it is showing that a relationship if not
marriage will definitely come around.
Let's look if there are other factors contributing to making a marriage prediction successful.
1. The 5th house of romance and dating is getting activated by this transit with Jupiter aspecting the 5th house from the Moon + the 5th lord from the Moon and
Saturn aspecting the 5th lord from the Moon. (√)
2. VimshottariDasa currently running is Mars MD - Venus AD. Venus antar-dasha will be in effect from June 2017 and until August 2018. Being placed in the
7th house, it supports marriage and relationships promising a good-looking, artistic and cultured partner. (√)
3. Marc Boney mentioned that Venus - Rahu/ Rahu - Venus and Saturn - Rahu / Rahu - Saturn periods in Vimshottari dasha and (to a lesser degree) in Yogini
dasha bring romantic relationships and marriage.
3.1. In Yogini dasha, the current MD is that of Saturn and the antar-dasha of Rahu is approaching soon starting on the 14th of September. Saturn is the Dara-
Karaka and he is placed with Rahu in the 5th house of romance. (√)

FOREIGN PARTNER PREDICTION: The conjuction of Dara-karaka with Rahu may signify a foreigner, so does Venus being the ruler of the 9th house (foreign
lands) placed in the 7th house. Parasara teaches that planets in the 5th house can act as the darakaraka, if we find Rahu placed there, it might signify a partner from a
different community. Saturn being the Dara-karaka and giving aspect onto Venus and the 7th house, may signify a partner that is older in age.

The Arudha of 7th house (A7) is in Gemini in the 10th house. Mercury as the lord of A7 is conjoined with the 12th lord Sun. Meeting the opposite sex is through work
environments in foreign lands.

4. In Chara-dasha (K.N. Rao) the current rasi MD is that of Capricorn (from May 2009 to May 2021) with Dara-karaka in it signifying a period during which a
person is very likely to get married. The current antar-dasha is Aries (May 2017 - May 2018) with AK Sun and PK Mercury in it. Mercury being the Putra-karaka
for this chart relating to 5th house matters (children, romance, dating, mantras and so on) can be the time for meeting the future spouse, dating and starting a
relationship. The next antar-dasha is of Pisces (May 2018 - May 2019), the sign of the 7th house with Venus in it being the natural dara-karaka can certainly bring
this event. (√)

5. In Narayna Dasha, the current rasi MD is that of Aries (May 2015 - May 2025). The current antar-dasha is of Aries as well (Jan 2017 - Nov 2017). The following
antar-dasha is of Taurus (Nov 2017 - Sep 2018), which is ruled by Venus in the 7th house and aspected by Ketu (rasi drishti). The rule states that for marriage to
happen there has to be a strong connection (rasi drishti) of Venus+Ketu or Upapada(UL) onto the MD or AD sign (particularly in Narayana dasha). So, during Aries
MD - Taurus AD a relationship or even marriage is very likely to manifest. (√)

6. The Vivaha Saham is in Capricorn, so at the time of marriage Jupiter may be retrograde because being in Libra and retrograde it will aspect Capricorn by its 5th
aspect from a sign prior to it which is Virgo. (√)

7. Venus as the natural dara-karaka, significator of spouse is badly affected by strong Saturn (its Vargottama being in Capricorn in Navamsa) delaying marriage. The
papa-kartari yoga with Venus being stuck between malefics (Mars and Sun) also doesn't help the situation. Mercury is the 7th lord from Venus is retrograde delaying
meeting the spouse as well. The native was advised to do Shukra Sadhana and 90 days of daily recitations of different mantras for Venus were completed. The 9th
house is the house of sadhana and tapasya, with Venus being the lord of the 9th placed in the 7th, it indicates that a person may attempt some sort of remedies to get
married.

Note: Upapada Lagna (UL) is in Sagittarius and the UL's lord Jupiter is actually getting activated by the double transit which is another factor.

With UL being placed in the 4th house, it indicates marrying someone from the family. Since this person is a devotee and belongs to a spiritual organization, there is a
high chance of a spouse from the same. We can see that Jupiter is aspecting the house it rules (Sagittarius), making it strong, and confirming a spiritual husband.
Moon placed in the UL will give a very caring and quite emotional partner with a fair complexion. The strong tie between A7 and UL, with Jupiter being the UL's lord
placed with A7 and UL & A7 aspecting each other throug rasi drishti, means that any serious relationship in this person's life will mature into marriage.

To see compatibility between partners and a person's attitude to marrige, we look at two things:

1. The placement of Venus from the 7th lord. If Venus is placed in a dusthana (6, 8 or 12th house) from the 7th lord from Lagna, it signifies lack of compatibility. If
Venus rules the 7th house, then we see Venus's placement from the 7th house itself.

In this chart Venus is in the 10th house from the 7th house lord Jupiter telling us there will be good compatibility between the native and her partner.

2. The placement of the DK from the AK (chara karakas are meant, of course). If Daka-karaka is placed in a dusthana (6, 8 or 12th house) from the Atma-karaka, it
signifies wrong/bad attitude to marriage and can delay marriage. Here, the DK (Saturn) is placed in the 10th house for the AK Sun which indicates a positive attitude
towards marriage on the part of the native.
Time of meeting the spouse: The rule states that when Venus or the 7th lord is transiting over the Ascendant (or aspect the Ascendant by graha-drishti) is the time
when you might meet you future spouse.
If they both, Venus and the planet which is the lord of the 7th house of the natal chart, are transiting over the Ascendant or aspecting the Ascendant, the chances are
higher. We should also look for those transits in regards to the Moon Lagna.

P.S. I did not touch the Navamsa chart because the D9 Lagna has not been rectified.

Below are some other predictions I have made.

____________________________________

Prediction for a job: If we look at the chart from the Ascendant, the 6th and the 10th houses are getting activated by the double transit which means employment,
getting a job. Mars forms a Vipareeta Raj Yoga in this chart (being the ruler of the 3rd and 8th placed in the 6th) and receving the aspects of both Jupiter and Saturn
during this transit, this yoga will surely come into force and bring sudden success after a period of struggles or at the expense of someone else's loss. Since Mars in the
6th house is activated, the houses he rules (the 3rd and the 8th) will also become active.

If we look at the chart from the Moon, the 5th lord is being activated by Jupiter and Saturn, it may bring about a new job, a promotion at work, subordinates, etc.

Prediction for gains: Jupiter will be transiting over the 2nd house from the Ascendant and over the 11th house from the Moon, which is very good for money, new
friends and fulfillment of desires (11th house). Rahu will be transiting over the 11th house from the Ascendant, promising gains from foreigners, growing social circle.
etc and it will also be transiting over the 9th house from the Arudha Lagna (AL in Scorpio). Whenever Rahu transits in trines to AL, it brings material gains.

Venus, being the current antar-dasha lord, and ruling the 2nd house and the 9th house from the Ascendant and aspecting the 11th house from AL (by rasi and graha
drishti), ensuring a good financial period.

Prediction for a change of residence:

1.The lord of the 4th house both from the Ascendant and the Moon is getting activated by the double transit causing a change in residence.

2.The 3rd house of short travel both from the Ascendant and the Moon is getting activated by the double transit, so is the activation of the 12th house from the
Moon pointing to going abroad.
3.Venus, the current antar-dasha lord in Vimshottari Dasha, rules the 9th house of foreign lands from the Ascendant, and if we look from the Maha-dasha
planet Mars, we can see that Venus also rules the 4th and 9th house from Mars and is positioned in the 2nd from him. Narasimha Rao teaches that "Of the houses
for foreign travel, the 9th house is most important."

Venus is in a watery sign of Pisces, so the travel might be over the water (flying somewhere).

4.The current Narayana maha-dasha of the D4 chart is Pisces (May 2016 - May 2019) falls into the 10th house. Note that whenever the 5th and 10th houses or their
lord from the D4 Lagna come into play in Narayana Dasha (being maraka houses for the 4th house), a change of residence is likely to happen. (See Rafal Gendarz's
article called "Residential changes").
