Hi dear all,
is it just my impression or DB Jupiter doesn't seem to cause so much hardships in life?
I seem to keep bumping on charts with debilitated Jupiter where people still manage to find some purpose and happiness. Also, some of the best readings I have given so far are for people who have DB Jupiter in the Rasi. Time and time again my predictions come true for them.
Unlike Saturn, for example. DB Saturn causes troubles quite visibly in every Varga chart i see it.
Should we distinguish DB malefics from benefics?
Would like to hear your thoughts.
Thanks,
Kat
Interesting. Have you found clients to be a difficult case if Jupiter is badly afflicted in other ways than debilitation, such as bad starvation, etc.?
Several prominent tropical Vedic astrologers avoid or send away clients with badly afflicted Jupiter.
Then there is one tropical Vedic astrologer with an exalted Jupiter who doesn't have a problem with it, but who finds those with an afflicted Mercury to be difficult to help.
@mitryendra80 actually, now when you mention, the worst readings that i have given are those with starved Mercury or debilitated. The readings with them went awfully wrong so far.
However, I don't have a very prominent Jupiter either. It is my atmakaraka and it is in Leo in the 11th house aspected by Rahu and Mars, conjunct Mercury and Venus, but starved badly by them. It is exalted in the D20 and D24 though.
Interesting.
@katalina1 You may not want to do a reading for me then, haha.
I have db Mercury, and right before I got a reading, the (remote) astrologer suddenly had a power outage that delayed our session a bit, and then the initial birth info was also wrong so he had to start all over then and there! (I may have entered the AM/PM wrong, though.)
@mitryendra80 hahahaha, last time I did a reading for a person with db Mercury I got the date wrong, but even with the right date it didn't get much better 😀
and from now on probably when I see a bad Mercury i will be having panic attacks 😀
but it's curious though, if those are not just coincidences, what could be the reason?
@katalina1 That is an interesting pattern of coincidence and it may be worth contemplating soon, as Mercury is about to go retrograde and thus become stronger.
