\nMalefics – Saturn, Rahu, Ketu, Mars, Sun, Ill associated Mercury and Weak\/ dark Moon<\/li>\n - Dignity of planets as explained in detail before. Strong planets are Benefic whereas Weak planets give problems related to areas of life they rule in the horoscope along with their general characteristics. Example if Sun is weak and rules 10th house, it will damage not just career\/ job (10th) but also general things it signifies (from list before) like father, government etc.<\/li>\n

- Even though this topic is already discussed in detail before, it is important to note that many other things can help quantify the actual nature of planets involved. Just to give you a taste of quantifiable factors, take a look at the example below. Again this much detail is not required as of now, much of this will become intuitive with experience, but a peek into the possibilities is shown as below (quantified in a spread sheet)<\/li>\n
- In this analysis one can consider factors like – Type of Nakshatra or star\u00a0(lunar asterism), functional nature of depositing star, functional nature of depositing sign, generic nature of depositing star, generic nature of depositing sign, positions in various divisionals especially D9, aspects from natural or functional benefics & malefics etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The example is same horoscope you have seen in some other examples –<\/p>\n
