Find Out What Could Be an Ominous Addition in Life According to Astrology

“We are made up of stardust,” some say.
Made up or not, the stars and planets indeed determine our lives. These celestial bodies dance in the cosmic symphony, orchestrating the grand tapestry of life.”
Planets, when in favourable positions, bring positive outcomes for the natives. But when they are inauspicious planetary combinations, they affect a person negatively.
How Malefic Planets (Graha Dosha) can Affect you?
Let us go planet by planet and see how the weak positioning of planets can cause disruptions:
- Sun or Surya: The Sun represents power and a father figure.
The sun when placed in houses 1 to 5,8,9,12 and 11 provides good results. Also, Saturn, Rahu, Venus, and Ketu are enemies, so whenever the sun is in conjunction with these planets, it causes harm to natives.
As per malefic sun astrology, the native will face health problems related to kidneys and eyes and will commit social felonies – trusting unworthy people will get backstabbed and will have communication gaps with fellows. Also, won’t be able to make a big life despite being provided with all the opportunities and that will lead to Cynicism.
- Mars or Mangal: Mars is a fierce planet. It is male and aggressive. The red planet is a planet of war, rules attributes like courage and fluctuating temperament and is malefic in nature.
Placed in 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th, and 12th houses, mars becomes weak. The person becomes physically weak and is unable to begin new things in life. The Mahadasha of Mars consists of 7 years.
When Mars is in a weak position, it becomes inauspicious and causes low physical strength. Not only physically, it affects the mental outlook of the person as well by filling the person with rage, and aggression, and causing self-destructive tendencies. The native will sleep a lot and have a low level of patience in life. It makes a person prone to injury and diseases along with lethargy.
- Moon or Chandra: Also known as soma, the moon is associated with the mind and consciousness. It holds the power over spiritual aspects of life – meditation and concentration.
However, when the moon forms a conjunction with malefic planets such as Mars, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu, it may give malefic results.
According to the malefic Moon’s astrology, the malefic moon causes health problems for the natives. The movement of the moon is faster than other planets, so it also causes mood swings and emotional distress. There can also be disputes related to property in the family.
- Mercury or Budh: Mercury is the smallest and fastest planet, and represents humour, wisdom and intelligence in a person.
Despite being a benefic planet by nature, when mercury comes in conjunction with any malefic planet or is placed in the 4th, 6th, 8th, and 12th house in kundali, it causes trouble.
A bad mercury causes trouble in business, the native will spend recklessly which will further lead to financial ruin. Also, trouble at the workplace will be there, especially from co-workers. When it comes to health, the native will suffer from fever his entire life, along with skin issues and throat problems.
- Jupiter or Brahaspati: The Guru represents knowledge, past karma and philosophy. It is a beneficial planet. It is the ruler of all planets, guardian and protector of all beings. It is the teacher of knowledge and learning, thus referred to as Guru Grah.
A weak Jupiter causes Guru Dosha. Guru Mahadasha occurs when Jupiter is closest to an individual’s nakshatra of birth. Due to the effect of other malefic planets, Jupiter may give negative results. Along with Rahu and Ketu, it creates Guru Chandal Yoga.
The native will face health issues – cough, cold, sore throat etc. The person may also face a lack of all the attributes Jupiter represents – knowledge, wealth and offspring. The Guru Chandal Yog causes misfortune.
- Venus or Shukra: It is feminine and brightest. It represents the sensual, romantic and aesthetic aspects of one’s life. So, a good Venus can guide towards the sensual richness, and a bad one can lead to ruins.
Though a benefic planet, if in conjunction with other malefic planets, it can cause mischief.
The native will follow tamasic tendencies such as gambling, alcohol, and drugs. The native can be low on physical appeal. Relationship with partner deteriorates, with extramarital affair, adultery and ultimately separation. The native can be extravagant which could lead to poverty.
- Saturn or Shani: The most feared planet, known for justice and discipline. It is the planet of retribution for karma by restrictions, challenges, failures, and fears. It keeps track of all past sins, and punishes one for that, without warning. So, you need to be extra careful with your karma.
The planet is malefic. When placed in houses 6th,5th,4th and 1st it causes harm. On positioning with the moon and mars in any houses, causes harm. When Saturn is in the 3rd house, the native will face financial issues, and children’s health will be adversely affected when placed in the 5th house and the 10th house is vacant. The wife of a native will suffer when Saturn is in the 7th, 10th, and 11th houses.
Also, amongst all the planets, Saturn affects the life of a person for the longest duration of time. Its Mahadasha period is the longest – around 19 years. You do not want to be on this side of Saturn’s list.
- Rahu: It is the north node of the moon and does not have the physical existence of a planet. It is a shadow planet and the god of materialism. It reflects its shadow on the native’s zodiac sign for 18 months.
Malefic Rahu leads to property-related disputes, be it ancestral or self-accumulated. It also adversely affects people associated with natives. People will have poor judgement and questionable religious beliefs. It creates illusions. Mentally, the native will have confusion, overthinking, unfulfilled and never-ending desires.
- Ketu: This shadow planet is associated with isolation and solitary confinement. It is a mysterious planet and thus sometimes can give unexpected results.
Ketu’s bad position causes health problems, detachment, and wealth loss. It can bring obstacles on the path to pursuing education, the sudden demise of some family members along job loss.
However, the bad effects of Ketu are milder than Rahu.
