Effects of Venus in the Twelve Houses - Part II

by Dr. Shanker Adawal(Jyotishaacharya, PHD, MBA)

Venus in the Seventh House

If Venus is in the seventh house, the native will be highly sexed and romantic. He
will be wealthy and will take interest in women other than his wife also. He will
possess conveyances, will be efficient in his work, will play foul with women and will
have a family consisting of brothers and wife etc. If Venus is associated with a
malefic or is in the house of a malefic or in his sign of debilitation (Virgo) there will
be loss of his wife but he will marry again. If there are many malefics with Venus,
the native will have to marry many times on account of successive loss of his wives.
In this situation the native will have no children. If Venus is associated with a benefic
or in his own or in his sign of exaltation (Pisces) the native will become very wealthy
on account of gift of wealth by his in-laws. He will be very influential with the help of
his wife and will be surrounded by women.

The logical reasons - Venus is a planet of emotion, passion and love. These are the
significations of the 7th house also. When Venus is in the 7th, the native becomes
highly sexed and has therefore many love affairs. As Venus is the Karaka for the 7th
house, it also causes a dosha called Karako Bhava Nasya and gives a few negative
influences. Venus aspects the ascendant from the 7th house. The native therefore
will become very attractive for women. He will also be wealthy and will possess all
comforts of life including conveyances. If Venus is afflicted he has to suffer loss of his
wife and may have to marry more than once. A dignified Venus brings wealth for the
native from his wife’s parents. He becomes a favourite of women and is always
surrounded by them. We, however, feel that if Venus is aspected by or associated
with Jupiter both the native and his wife will be very chaste and will enjoy a very
happy married life. In the seventh house Venus will be in Kendra to the ascendant.
The disposition of Venus in his sign or in his sign of exaltation will give rise to
Malavya yoga.

Venus in the Eighth House

The native will be happy, long lived and equipped with all kinds of comforts, very
wealthy, like a king owner of lands and happy. His mother will suffer from a throat
trouble in his fourth year. He will have a long span of life and will be sickly. He will
have a devoted wife but he will be discontented. If Venus is in the house of a
benefic, (or associated with a benefic) the native will enjoy full span of life. If Venus
is associated with (or aspected by) a malefic, the native will be short lived.

The logical reasons - Venus is a great benefic (only 2nd to Jupiter) and will aspect
the second house (Dhana bhava) and will therefore make the dative wealthy. It will
improve the longevity and will give inheritance as 8th rules these.

Venus in the Ninth House

If Venus is in the ninth house, the native will be religious minded, will devote himself
to meditation and will perform religious rites, he will have very auspicious signs in
his foot (like lotus, ankush, conch, etc), will enjoy all kinds of comforts and will be
blessed with children. The father of the native will be long lived. If Venus is
associated with (or aspected by) a malefic there may be loss of father early in
native’s life. Again if Venus is associated with (or aspected by) a malefic, or is in the
house of a malefic or is in his sign of debilitation, there will be loss of wealth and the
native will have illicit relations with the preceptor’s wife. If Venus is associated with
(or aspected by) a benefic (or is in his own sign or in his sign of exaltation), the
native will enjoy high prosperity as a result of Maharaja yoga. If Venus is associated
with the lord of the 4th or 7th house, the native will be exceedingly fortunate and
enjoy the comforts of all kinds of conveyances, dresses and ornaments.

The logical reasons - The ninth house is the most auspicious house. 9th denotes
father, religion, Guru and also 5th from 5th children. When a great benefic is posited
there, all the good significations of the house will become fruitful. The results will
become more beneficial when Venus is associated with or aspected by benefics and
is in his own sign or in his sign of exaltation. When Venus is in his own sign Taurus,
the ascendant will be Virgo and Venus will be in the 9th as lord of the 2nd and when
Venus is in his own sign Libra, the ascendant will be Aquarius, and Venus will be in
the ninth as lord of the 4th and 9th houses. These are very powerful Dhana yogas.

Venus in the Tenth House

If Venus is in the tenth house, the native will be full of glory. If Venus is associated
with (or aspected by) a malefic, the native will have difficulties and obstacles in his
undertakings. If Venus is associated with Mercury, Jupiter and Moon, the effects will
be as under:- (a) The native will enjoy the comfort of many conveyances. (b) He will
perform religious ceremonies of many kinds. (c) He will enjoy world wide reputation.
(d) He will enjoy many Raja yogas that is, he will be wealthy, honoured and famous.
(e) He will be very fortunate and talkative.

The logical reasons - Venus gives very beneficial results in the tenth in respect of the
significations of this house of profession - unless afflicted. The results will be far
more beneficial when Venus gets associated with three benefics-Jupiter, Mercury and
Moon. All the effects given are logical and relevant to the significations of the tenth
house. For the Virgo, Capricorn and Aquarius ascendants, Venus will be in the 10th,
as lord of the 2nd and 9th, the 5th and 10th the 4th and 9th respectively. For the
Cancer ascendant, Venus will be in the 10th as lord of 4th and llth. These
dispositions give rise to very powerful Dhana yogas. When Venus is posited in the
10th in his own sign (lord of 10th in 10th), a distinguished Raja yoga is formed which
will confer great wealth, name and fame upon the native. Venus in the tenth is in
Kendra to the ascendant. The disposition of Venus there in his own sign or in his sign
of exaltation will give rise to Malavya yoga.

Venus a benefic being in the 10th to the ascendant also gives rise to the Amala
yoga: “The person will achieve lasting fame and reputation. His character will be
spotless and he will lead a prosperous life”.

Venus in the Eleventh House

If Venus is in the eleventh house, the native will be learned, very wealthy, owner of
lands and kind hearted. If Venus is associated with (or aspected by) a benefic the
native will enjoy the comforts of many conveyances. If Venus is in conjunction with a
malefic, the gain of wealth will be through questionable means. If Venus is
associated with a benefic the financial gains will be through rightful means. If Venus
is in his sign of debilitation or is associated with a malefic or the lord of 8th, 6th or
12th there will be no financial gains.
The logical reasons -The effects given in the above Sutras are very logical and
relevant to the significations of the eleventh house. For Virgo, Capricorn, Aquarius
and Cancer ascendants, Venus will be in the eleventh, as lord of the 2nd and 9th, the
5th and 10th, the 4th and 9th and the 4th and llth respectively. These dispositions
give rise to powerful Dhana yogas. Another very gainful position for Venus in the
eleventh will be in her sign of exaltation. Then Venus will be exalted in the llth as
lord of the ascendant (Taurus ascendant).

Venus in the Twelfth House

If Venus is in the twelfth house, the native will face exterme poverty. If Venus is
associated with a malefic the native will be inclined towards sexual indulgences. If
Venus is associated with a benefic the native will be very wealthy, will have all
comforts of bed (sexual pleasures) and will go to heaven after death. He will go to
hell if Venus is associated with a malefic.

The logical reasons -The above Sutras are self explanatory and need no comments
as the 12th is the house of expenses, losses and Moksha or liberation/after death.
