Exalted planets amplify their positive qualities, bringing strength, success, and favorable outcomes in the areas they influence. They function at their highest potential, enhancing confidence, talents, and life stability.
Planets in Exaltation
It is generally accepted that the strongest position in a zodiac for a planet is the position of ucha or exaltation. For each graha, there is such a “special” zodiac, and it strengthens the planet several times in the natal chart. And in a person’s life, as a rule, an exalted planet manifests itself very brightly. Sometimes so brightly that an exalted planet can create a number of difficulties on the path of life.
Definitely, exalted planets should be considered strong, and this is a huge plus. They strengthen the bhavas in which they are located, as well as the bhavas they rule.
We all know that a weak planet can bring us many difficulties, unrealized ideas, and plans. We strive to establish relationships or connections with each planet in the horoscope, especially when it is weak.
It would be a mistake to think that an exalted planet brings only favorable results. Equally, as a very weakened one, it often needs harmonization. It is very important to select the right upayas for this planet. That is, a planet in uche does not mean that things are going great according to its indicators.
1. Sun (Exalted in Aries)
Amplifies leadership, confidence, vitality, and willpower.
2. Moon (Exalted in Taurus)
Enhances emotional stability, nurturing, comfort, and intuition.
3. Mercury (Exalted in Virgo)
Sharpens intellect, analytical ability, communication, and precision.
4. Venus (Exalted in Pisces)
Elevates love, creativity, compassion, and artistic talent.
5. Mars (Exalted in Capricorn)
Boosts discipline, ambition, strategy, and physical endurance.
6. Jupiter (Exalted in Cancer)
Expands wisdom, generosity, spirituality, and emotional intelligence.
7. Saturn (Exalted in Libra)
Strengthens justice, patience, discipline, and balanced relationships.
8. Rahu (Exalted in Taurus)
Enhances material success, innovation, adaptability, and worldly ambitions.
9. Ketu (Exalted in Scorpio)
Deepens spirituality, intuition, detachment, and transformative power.
These exaltations amplify the planet’s natural qualities to their peak, offering the best outcomes in a birth chart.
What Are the Difficulties Caused by a Planet in Exaltation?
The first is hyperactivity and hyper manifestations of its qualities, and the qualities of the planets are very different. We all know that when a dish is undersalted, it is bland and you don’t really want to eat it, but if you add too much salt to the dish, it will become almost impossible and even dangerous to eat. The same is with planets in the natal chart: an exalted planet is an oversalted dish. There is too much of its energy, and it does not always manifest itself clearly.
Planets by their nature are divided into malefics (malefic planets) and benefics (benefic planets). But both have a number of both negative and positive qualities. For example:
• Too strong Mars (exalted) can reward a person with courage, bravery, and valor, but at the same time a number of negative qualities, such as aggressiveness, irascibility, anger, and impulsiveness.
• Too strong Venus can bestow beauty, charm, and love, but make a person a slave to their desires, endow them with a painful attachment to their appearance, wealth, money, excessive luxury, and comfort. This can create certain problems in a person’s life.
• Too strong Saturn can give a person qualities such as responsibility, composure, modesty, hard work, humility, and honesty, but at the same time create problems related to health, and make a person too tough and cold towards others, detached, and rude.
• Too strong Rahu can give extreme material desires, excessive ambition, overindulgence, manipulative tendencies, and illusion. It may lead to restlessness and dissatisfaction even after achieving success.
• Too strong Ketu can lead to excessive detachment, escapism, isolation, or over-spiritualization. It may create confusion, indecision, or a lack of connection with the material world.
You should carefully observe the bhava in which you have an exalted planet, and perhaps you have several such planets in your natal chart. Horoscopes in which exalted planets are completely absent are not an exception—this is neither good nor bad. This is a fact that an astrologer works with in the same way as with a chart where there are exalted planets. Those who do not have exalted planets in their natal chart should not be upset.
You need to be able to and learn to use the energies of exalted planets correctly in your life so that they do not create unnecessary problems. The golden mean is needed in everything. It would be a mistake to believe that it is necessary to strengthen only weakened grahas, here it is important to know that a super-strong planet in exaltation also needs to use a number of upayas and methods of correcting its strength.
In which zodiacs all nine Jyotish grahas are exalted, I will describe for you below. Pay attention to the degrees of the planets, this is also an important indicator in determining the intensity of the manifestation of exaltation. The closer the planet is to the maximum degree of exaltation in a given zodiac, the brighter it is.
• The Sun is in the zodiac of Aries. The maximum degree of manifestation is 10.
• The Moon is in the zodiac of Taurus. The maximum degree of manifestation is 3.
• Mars is in the zodiac of Capricorn. The maximum degree of manifestation is 28.
• Venus is in the zodiac of Pisces. The maximum degree of manifestation is 27.
• Mercury is in the zodiac of Virgo. The maximum degree of manifestation is 15.
• Jupiter is in the zodiac of Cancer. The maximum degree of manifestation is 5.
• Saturn is in the zodiac of Libra. The maximum degree of manifestation is 20.
• Rahu is in the zodiac of Taurus (does not have a maximum value).
