Ārūḍha MANIFESTATION OF LIFE Everything manifests from Ārūḍha including weaknesses, sufferings and troubles We examine the AL6 and AL8 in some charts

Bhāva is based on rāśi = Resources (Aditya - Sun) Tripod of Life Bhāva is based on rāśi = Resources (Aditya - Sun) Pāka Lagna, the knowledge, is like Guru Āruḍha Lagna, the image, is like the Moon Everything manifests through ārūḍha Just as Lagna is most important of houses (pradhāna), so also its image Ārūḍha Lagna is most important Lagna SUN Pāka JUPITER Āruḍha MOON Every House has a resources associated called Bhāva Manipulation of resources is the work of its lord (i.e. Pāka) What manifests from this is Āruḍha

Ārūḍha Bhāva Mark the sign having “AL” as the “Manifested Image” The houses are reckoned from this sign called Ārūḍha or Pada Lagna House indications are similar to the bhāva indicated by Parāśara for houses from Lagna However, the results are “more pronounced” Ārūḍha shows the “Sources” through which things manifest Effects of Planets are based more on their lordship of natural signs of the Zodiac. Moon is the significator of the Ārūḍha

Ārūḍha and Planets Everything about the person is the Ārūḍha Lagna Benefics Jupiter, Moon (Sattva) and Venus, Mercury (Rajas) associating the Ārūḍha show a likable, socially successful personality. This can lead to fame and great success Sun is reclusive and brings a royal or spiritual image Saturn spoils the reputation due to weaknesses, alcohol, drug additions etc., and consequential lying to cover-up these weaknesses Rāhu shows excessive consumption and greed which can come from denial and addictions while Ketu shows one who renounces easily, a donor and an elite. Either way, they can lead to impoverishment of the ārūḍha. The aspect and conjunctions brings a mixed effect of the personality

Ārūḍha Creation Rāhu or Saturn  Very low (Saturn) mean-minded (Rāhu) qualities Mars or Mercury  Labour, Worker, Service Jupiter  Priests who perform daily worship Venus  Teacher, Preacher, Speaker Jupiter or Venus dṛṣṭi Malefic(s)  normal good people not very strict about spiritual discipline; kṣatriya etc. Sun  distinguished person or government officer Ketu  Elite person or sadhu If Moon or Venus  Lady Moon is with Saturn  bad women; Moon + Venus + no malefic(s)  very good lady Moon + Jupiter  Chaste Lady … In this manner examine the planets and see the “blooming of the person” in Ārūḍha from the seed in Lagna.
