Now we come again to a sign having Gandanta in its end. Gandanta is transformation signs having Gandanta in their end portion indicates that these people will be living a life on their rules that as the end will approach the native will start shackling and changing native, whereas signs having gandanta in starting need to accept radical transformation from their life’s start. As Scorpio is the debilitation of Moon mind isn’t stable here and is under extreme pressure and dire circumstances. Mind is just like dying in this place and this makes this sign very energetic, Scorpio is the main content in itself with dark energy that when channelized can be used for the world’s good whereas if misused can create havoc in the lives of people around them. Scorpio people first must learn to accept them and then their energy and then they must learn how to use it for welfare. As the 9th lord is debilitated in Lagna this sign is considered inauspicious. This is the reason why Scorpio and Aquarius are said to be cursed signs (Aquarius we will be dealt with later) Classic authors consider Aquarius as inauspicious whereas logically Scorpio seems worst than Aquarius. The poison of Scorpio can only be cured by Vishnu whereas punishment of Aquarius can only be taken by worshipping Shiva.

How Planets act in Scorpio Ascendant

Sun is lord of the 10^th house for this ascendant and it denotes that their karmas are motivated by a sense of righteousness, authority and they want to enjoy the power and take control in their hands in all their works be it professional or personal in marital life too females born in this ascendant or moon sign will try to dominate their husband and family. Sun’s well place condition gives them a high rise in life. Sun well placed in Kendras is very good for professional success as well as prestige in life and overall success his placement in Kona’s make Raajyoga whereas his placement in the 12th house is very bad as he will give loss of honour, prestige, position, and work can be motivated by bad or lowly intentions. There is a standard Jyotish dictum that states Sun in his fall cancels all Raajyogas hence before predicting results of Raajyoga placement of Sun must be critically and closely analyzed.

Moon is lord of the 9th house and his placement in all Kona’s are good except ascendant where he will be debilitated that will bestow native with much wealth and fortune but his desires and intentions can be lowly and he can be mentally and emotionally dissatisfied. The one problem with Scorpio people is their emotional quota is never fulfilled for one reason or another. Moon in lagna also indicates their luck will rise in their 22-24 Years after some serious setbacks and mental torment. His placement in Kendra’s is good and beneficial for natives as it is Raajyoga’s placement. Sun and Moon can be well placed anywhere because they make separate ascendants in the Parashari School of astrology but with ill-placement of their Dispositor, they behave weakly. Lagna is powerful due to Lagnesh and aspects and conjunctions over lagna same is the case with Sun and Moon. Suppose Moon is in Scorpio then he is debilitated but if Ketu is with Moon and Mars be in Capricorn and Scorpio is aspected by Venus or Jupiter then one can safely say Moon is well placed and no misfortune or bad effects of debilitated Moon will come to pass.

Mars is lord of ascendant and 6^th house for this ascendant and being Lagnesh he is benefic to some extent only whereas Ketu being co-lord of ascendant must be treated as complete benefic and whichever house Ketu is placed in Scorpio chart that house will significantly flourish. Mars placed in ascendant will bestow success but can also make the native weak and sickly provided Ketu is weak his placement in 2^nd house makes good Yogas for money making but bank balance comes after much struggle and fight and usually they are found to be along torch-bearers in their family. Mars in 3^rd house gives courage, stamina and enemies will be down by his strength but it can give problems and litigations with younger siblings. Mars in 4^th house is good for health whereas mother can suffer some blood ailments and native himself will complain about breathing issues but unless afflicted it will not be a big concern. Mars in 5^th house gives good Raajyoga but makes one suffer on account of children’s as it can give accidents related to children, abortions and opposition from children as progeny can be very pushing. In the 6th house Mars is well placed to give weak health but diseases won’t be there, struggles will be in life but a stable job is also promised. In the 7th house, he makes a person dominate over his/her spouse, one with a highly elevated conscious soul that doesn’t promise spirituality but yes person’s soul is conscious. His marital life can be an issue wife can be slim, slender waist, medium height, some marks of boils, pimples, acne will be there. She will be hard-working and energetic. Mars in the 8th house shows long-lasting diseases, some hereditary diseases can also be there, along with death due to diseases or suffering with disease-causing death. He can get inheritance and his job will be irregular like night shifts or someone working in a car Garage shop where Sunday is a working day while any other day is off or someone like an Insurance agent who isn’t having a fixed working schedule/hour. Mars in 9th house is good for fortunes rise along with Hurdles and diseases will be in thighs as their legs can be weak, they can have some issues with parents, elders especially male elders in their family and society.  Their luck can rise at age of 26-28 years. Mars in 10th house makes them highly posited in society, gives them much name, fame and reorganization whereas their Mother will be happy and their prestige at times can be at stake if Sun is not well placed. Their profession will rise gradually and slowly with some hurdles and hard work along with efforts is to be put in but whatever growth they achieve will be permanent as glory. Mars in 11th makes good Dhan Yogas especially if they are in sectors like health insurance as Mars is lord of 6th house of Disease and is placed in 11th house of Income in Mercurial sign (Insurance) along with this they will possess intellect, wisdom and power of discrimination as their decision making power will be good, they won’t be easily dis-satisfied. And will try to handle each and every situation with razor-sharp intellect. Mars in 12th house makes one spendthrift, weak, surrounded of long-lasting diseases along with giving good resistant power from diseases is bad for bank balance and good for spirituality if they go to the gym or engage in any other physical activity like martial arts then their health can improve and their expenses can be put to a halt. Meditation especially on light (Trataka) or Hatha yoga is best advisable for them as it will help them control their mind (moon debilitated in lagna) Senses (Venus Maraka) and will channel their energy (Mars in Saturnine Houses makes them strong and sometimes lethal too)

Mercury is lord of the 8th and 11th house for this ascendant and hence Very critical for health-related issues. He can give inheritance and sudden gain of money if well placed but his ill placement will give misfortune, hereditary diseases and unknown obstacles. Mercury in Kendra’s are not good as he gives ill-luck of 8th house but if he is placed in Ascendant or 10th house then he will create good Dhana Yogas and his placement in ascendant will also give long-lasting disease one of them can be hereditary too. Mercury in Konas will block blessings and will make life miserable along with giving unending suffering. Pisces being debilitation of Mercury gives bad future (Bad life after 40 years generally or one can find longevity and divide it into two parts to know it more accurately) it will give problems in progeny and related to progeny. Progeny can have some hereditary diseases or defect by birth (remedial measures are required) 9^th house he will smash Luck, Fortune, Father’s growth and will block blessings.

Jupiter is lord of 2nd and 5^th house for this ascendant and if well placed bestows good luck (if 5^th lord is well placed then life after half of the longevity is crossed will be lucky and fortunate) Jupiter well placed will give good progeny, happiness from them, good future prospects and person will be inclined to do good deeds and will keep the rule of karma in their mind. His placement in Kendras and konas are very good and favourable whereas his placement in 3rd house in his debilitation, as well as Marana Karaka Sthana, is horrible as it destroys fortune, luck, money, bank balance, support from family, and person will be inclined to live miserable life but his benefic aspect on 9th house will try to do good and his gemstone will be extremely favourable. As it is a house whose Karaka is Mars yellow sapphire in copper is best advised for rising in luck and having good effects on Jupiter.

Venus is lord of the 7th and 12th house for this horoscope and hence becomes extremely important. His association with lagna in any form is good for making huge money, especially from business and his placement in Kendras and konas give good wife as well as progress in business and all-around Victory. But his ill-effect of 12th house is sure to follow. In ascendant it will give much money and expenses he can be an investor in businesses in 4th house it is all-round good but demands for a beautiful, loving, caring, Nurturing and skilled wife (hard to find in Kaliyuga) in 5th house he can give delayed progeny, mostly female children, some abortions can be there, first or the last child can be physically weak. 7th house gives fights with the wife; marital life can have some disharmony, verbal fights will be dominating and the person or their spouse can have a tendency to go in their shell after the fight making the condition worst. In 9th house, it is actually good and demands purity from native to give good luck from marriage and partnerships and can give chances to have some extra-marital affairs, dual marriage, after having a guru much of these bad effects of 9^th house can be put under control.

Saturn is lord of 3^rd and 4^th house for this ascendant and his placement in the 4^th house makes life miserable, the mother is weak and Father will have long life along with Native’s own slow progress in life, de-attached heart and some sadist tendencies inside him. He will be practical and happily disposed in himself and not much a social creature.  As Saturn is debilitated in Martian sign he is malefic for this ascendant but his lordship of 4^th house makes him Neutral hence well placed in 3-6-10-11 houses he will do good and his placement in kendras can be considered good except ascendant whereas he will be in Marana Karaka Sthana and will end chances of having siblings, new enterprise, will give bad health, suffering and short life to mother and will create disputes and differences with father.
