The fall is not my destiny’s end,
It is the force that helps me ascend.
This horoscope reveals a powerful karmic architecture in which struggle and gain operate simultaneously, particularly in the domains of finance, profession, psychological endurance, and spiritual evolution. The life pattern does not unfold in a straight ascending line. Rather, it moves through repeating cycles of pressure, expansion, overreach, correction, rebuilding, and renewed growth. Loans, liabilities, speculative exposure, stock-market volatility, professional competition, miscalculations in timing, and temporary instability arise at various stages. Yet none of these phases result in permanent collapse. Every fall is followed by recovery; every contraction precedes expansion. This is not a chart of denial — it is a chart of volatility and reconstruction. The karmic pattern is cyclical, not destructive.
With Sagittarius (Dhanu) rising and Jupiter placed in its own sign in the Ascendant, the horoscope gains a powerful protective foundation. Classical Jyotiṣha clearly states that when Jupiter occupies its own sign in Lagna, the native is protected from destruction and possesses the ability to rise after adversity. As stated in BPSH:
स्वक्षेत्रे स्वोच्चगे वा गुरौ लग्ने स्थिते नरः।
सर्वदुःखविनिर्मुक्तो दीर्घायुर्भाग्यवान् भवेत्॥
“When Jupiter is in its own or exalted sign in the Ascendant, the native becomes fortunate, long-lived, and protected from suffering.”
This placement grants philosophical strength, moral intelligence, resilience, and an inbuilt divine cushioning effect. However intense the disturbance in finance or profession may be, it does not become final. The native learns through lived experience and emerges wiser after each setback.
Yet complexity arises due to retrograde Mercury placed in the Ascendant. Mercury governs calculation, commerce, intellect, analysis, and decision-making. When retrograde and highly strengthened in Shadbala, it produces extraordinary analytical depth but also over-analysis, mental restlessness, and occasional distortion in execution timing. Classical texts describe Mercury’s dual nature:
बुधो बुद्धिकरः प्रोक्तो वाणिज्ये च विशेषतः।
युक्तियुक्तविचारेण कार्यसिद्धिः प्रजायते॥
“Mercury grants intelligence and skill in trade; through strategic reasoning success is achieved.”
In this chart, Mercury’s exceptional strength shows brilliance in financial modeling, trading instinct, and intellectual capacity. However, retrogression combined with high strength can lead to excessive processing. In financial matters this may manifest as entering at the wrong time, exiting prematurely, or misjudging trend reversals. Thus intelligence becomes both strength and vulnerability.
The second house of accumulated wealth, savings, and stored resources is heavily activated. When multiple planetary influences affect Dhana Bhava, financial life becomes dynamic rather than static. Classical doctrine states:
द्वितीयस्थे पापग्रहैर्धनहानिर्भविष्यति।
षष्ठेशसंयुक्ते तत्र ऋणपीडा न संशयः॥
“When malefics influence the second house, wealth fluctuates; when connected with the sixth lord, debt pressure arises.”
Here, a clear debt–wealth axis forms. Income grows, but liabilities rise alongside it. Wealth is earned, yet obligations expand simultaneously. This does not deny prosperity; rather, it creates cycles where financial stress becomes the teacher of prudence. The native learns discipline through fluctuation.
The Lagna experiences pressure resembling Papakartari influence, generating psychological tension and a feeling of being surrounded by obstacles. However, benefic Jupiter in Lagna prevents destruction. Classical Jyotiṣha assures that strong benefic influence neutralizes malefic hemming. Therefore, growth may be delayed, but it is never denied. Endurance becomes the path to success.
When the natal chart (D1) is correlated with the Dashamsha (D10), the professional pattern becomes non-linear. Career progress is marked by interruptions, role shifts, rivalry, and phases where effort does not immediately yield proportionate reward. Sixth-house themes in professional matters indicate compliance pressure, administrative challenges, and the necessity of repeatedly proving competence. Yet Jupiter’s placement protects reputation. Breaks become turning points rather than endings.
The percentage strength shown in Shadbala tables is calculated by comparing the planet’s obtained Shadbala with the classical minimum required Shadbala prescribed in Jyotiṣa. Shadbala itself is measured in Virupas, where 1 Rupa equals 60 Virupas. The Rupas shown in your table are simply the Virupas divided by 60. For example, the Sun has 340.18 Virupas; when divided by 60, it becomes 5.67 Rupas. This conversion confirms the Rupa value displayed.
Classical authorities such as BPSH describe that planetary strength must be examined before judging results:
स्थानदिग्कालचेष्टादि नैसर्गिकदृग्बलम्।त् समस्तं ज्ञेयं शड्बलाख्यं ग्रहस्य तत्॥
“The combined strength arising from position, direction, time, motion, natural potency and aspects is known as Shadbala.
Thus, Shadbala is the total of six strengths: Sthana Bala (positional), Dig Bala (directional), Kala Bala (temporal), Cheshta Bala (motional), Naisargika Bala (natural), and Drik Bala (aspectual).
To determine percentage strength, the obtained Shadbala is divided by the minimum required Shadbala for that planet and multiplied by 100. Each planet has a classical minimum requirement. The Sun requires 5.0 Rupas (300 Virupas), the Moon 6.0 Rupas (360 Virupas), Mars 5.0 Rupas, Mercury 7.0 Rupas (420 Virupas), Jupiter 6.5 Rupas (390 Virupas), Venus 5.5 Rupas (330 Virupas), and Saturn 5.0 Rupas (300 Virupas). These benchmarks represent the threshold needed for a planet to deliver satisfactory results.
| Planet | Minimum Required (Rupas) | In Virupas |
| Sun | 5.0 | 300 |
| Moon | 6.0 | 360 |
| Mars | 5.0 | 300 |
| Mercury | 7.0 | 420 |
| Jupiter | 6.5 | 390 |
| Venus | 5.5 | 330 |
| Saturn | 5.0 | 300 |
The formula is therefore:
Percentage Strength = (Obtained Shadbala ÷ Required Shadbala) × 100
For example, the Sun has 5.67 Rupas. The minimum required for the Sun is 5.00 Rupas. Dividing 5.67 by 5.00 gives 1.134. Multiplying by 100 gives 113.4%. This matches the 113.39% shown in your table. It means the Sun is 13% stronger than the minimum required strength.
Taking Mercury as another example, it has 11.14 Rupas. The required minimum for Mercury is 7.00 Rupas. Dividing 11.14 by 7.00 gives 1.591. Multiplying by 100 gives 159.1%, which corresponds to the 159.07% shown. This means Mercury is 59% stronger than the minimum required threshold, making it exceptionally dominant in the chart.
Mars, on the other hand, has 4.68 Rupas, while the required minimum is 5.00 Rupas. Dividing 4.68 by 5.00 gives 0.936. Multiplying by 100 results in 93.6%, which matches the 93.65% shown. This indicates Mars is about 6% below the ideal threshold, explaining comparatively reduced stability in Martian results.
In interpretation terms, 100% means the planet exactly meets the required strength. Above 100% indicates strength above the classical benchmark. Values around 120–130% show strong functional capability, while 150% or more indicates exceptional dominance. Below 100% suggests reduced ability to fully deliver results unless supported by other yogas.
Thus, the percentage column in your Shadbala table is not arbitrary. It is a direct mathematical comparison between actual planetary strength and the classical minimum required strength. Mercury’s 159% confirms its commanding influence in the horoscope, while Mars below 100% explains occasional inconsistency. The percentages simply quantify how far above or below the classical requirement each planet stands.
शनैः शनैः फलदः शनि:
“Saturn gives results slowly, step by step.”
Thus, gains in life emerge after perseverance rather than instant ease.
The planetary activity states further confirm cyclical intensity. Planets frequently shift between full effort (Cheshta), moderate effort (Drishti), and reduced effort (Vicheshta). Mercury, Moon, and Venus often enter full activity states, intensifying mental engagement, emotional reaction, and financial involvement. Rahu and Ketu show sudden activation bursts, bringing unexpected financial swings and abrupt professional developments. This reinforces the wave-like life structure: expansion followed by correction; action followed by recalibration.
Spiritually, this horoscope is a forge. It shapes maturity through lived experience. The karmic sequence repeats in elevated spirals: expansion, overreach, correction, wisdom, stabilization, renewed growth. Each cycle occurs at a higher level of awareness. The native is not meant for static accumulation but for dynamic mastery of cycles.
The combination of strong Mercury, powerful Moon, and disciplined Saturn creates a mind that thinks intensely, feels deeply, and endures persistently. Jupiter safeguards moral direction and long-term survival. Venus sustains attraction toward prosperity. The Sun maintains dignity. Mars injects initiative. Together they form a pressure-built horoscope where struggle refines judgment and volatility trains discipline.
In essence, this is not a weak chart. It is a high-energy, high-pressure karmic design. Classical wisdom summarizes such destiny:
दुःखं ज्ञानस्य कारणम्।
परिश्रमो धनस्य मूलम्॥
“Suffering becomes the cause of wisdom; effort becomes the root of wealth.”
The life lesson reflected here is not avoidance of difficulty but mastery of cycles. Pain precedes gain; discipline bridges volatility and lasting success; and each fall prepares the ground for a stronger rise.
