I have a friend's chart that is so perplexing to me. You might know this configuration from 1962 late January when everything was in Aquarius. For him, it's 6th house with Saturn, Ketu, Jupiter, Mercury, Sun, and Venus. Mars is in Capricorn, so compounded if using same lord conjunctions. Moon is over in Libra. I don't know everything about his life, serious near death with alcohol in his 20s. Got help. No booze since. He's not a psychopath, super nice and generous, a fairly successful potter, but possibly raised by wolves. I imagine that Saturn in Mulatrikona and Mars in exaltation are serious mitigating factors.....?
I wanted to ask. Jupiter of course is delighting everything, but it is getting so beat on in that sign, does it have anything to give?
I have a collegue, a crossword writer, born in early January that year. Also a stacked Aq with Moon, Jupiter and Mercury shamed by Saturn and Ketu. Like your friend her Mars is exalted, and her Saturn of course MT. Venus in GF (cap) and Sun N.
She´s extremely humble and takes up very little space. Too little I think. But I have the feeling that she has had a decent life. No alcohol or drug abuse as far as I know. No kids and no really working relations though, it seems to me, or at least not that long-lived.

@meyes So interesting. I haven't really looked at timing with him, but in learning about these avasthas, I'm often trying to weigh real life impact against the stark archetypes of what these placements can mean.
Let me also say that she´s a woman, so any harm that she would do, she would probably do more to herself than to others. I mean, not as a rule but as a general tendency. And I wouldn´t know. Of course she can be a drug addict without me knowing anything about it, or she might have been when she was younger.

Ted Bundy´s chart is worth mentioning in this context. Sun, Mars and Moon all shamed, with Ketu and in the 5th. No exalted or MT planets to help them out.
