Marriage and family life are crucial aspects of human existence, yet Vedic astrology also explains conditions where these experiences may be denied, disrupted, or lead to asceticism. Understanding these possibilities enables a holistic view of a person’s destiny regarding relationships and progeny.
Yogas for Renunciation and Celibacy
Certain planetary configurations in a horoscope indicate a strong tendency toward spiritual life, renunciation, or detachment from worldly pleasures, including marriage.
Multiple Planetary Conjunctions
When four or more planets occupy a single house, it often points toward a life of spiritual pursuit or asceticism, with the individual turning away from marital obligations.
Strong Sun Influence
An extremely powerful and unafflicted Sun suggests a soul focused on individuality and inner power, leading to a lack of inclination towards marriage. If unsupported by benefics, such individuals might aspire for monastic life, though the ability to sustain it varies.
Saturn’s Role
If Saturn is combust or heavily afflicted, especially in relation to the Moon or the lagna, the native might experience a strong desire for solitude and monastic living, but achieving it might not always be successful.
Specific combinations involving the Moon being aspected by both Mars and Saturn, or the Moon being placed in navamsas owned by Mars (Aries, Scorpio), indicate tendencies toward spiritual withdrawal and abstinence from marriage.
Yogas Indicating Childlessness or Lineage Disruption
The continuation of the family line and the blessing of children are governed by specific houses and planetary conditions.
Malefic planets occupying or aspecting the fifth, eighth, or twelfth houses disrupt progeny prospects. A weak or afflicted fifth lord, or debilitated benefics occupying the fifth house, often leads to difficulties in conceiving or sustaining progeny. Presence of multiple malefic planets in the fourth house signifies interruptions in family continuity. If Mercury and Venus are positioned unfavorably in the seventh or twelfth house, and malefics affect the fourth house while Jupiter occupies the fifth, lineage interruption is indicated.
The strength of the fifth house, its lord, and benefic aspects on them are vital for the prosperity of the family line.
Marital Discord and Divorce Indicators
Astrological principles describe clear signs of disharmony leading to divorce or severe marital issues.
Affliction to the seventh house or its lord by malefic planets brings disharmony and potential separation. If Venus is debilitated, combust, or afflicted by malefics, it suggests challenges in sustaining relationships. The conjunction of the Moon, Mars, and Saturn in a chart often results in both partners being unfaithful. If Mercury occupies the seventh house, there could be tendencies towards frivolous behavior in relationships. Saturn’s presence in the seventh house, especially when aspected by malefics, often results in delayed marriage or non-marriage.
Unfavorable placements of Venus, Moon, or their lords, combined with negative influences from malefic planets, destabilize marital happiness and often lead to separation or divorce.
Special Conditions for Widowhood
Specific planetary setups predict the early demise of a spouse.
If Venus is surrounded by malefic planets and lacks benefic aspects, there is a higher probability of losing a spouse through tragic circumstances. Mars, Rahu, and Saturn occupying the sixth, seventh, and eighth houses respectively signify severe risks to marital longevity. The lord of the seventh house, if weak, debilitated, or associated with malefic planets, suggests widowhood. In a female’s horoscope, the eighth house from the ascendant must be carefully studied for indications regarding the husband’s health and survival. Malefic influence on both the seventh house and the lagna indicates widowhood within a few years of marriage.
Widowhood is more likely if major malefic planets dominate the seventh house and associated significators without the counterbalancing support of benefics.
Sexual Misconduct and Social Dishonor
Some combinations highlight tendencies toward illicit relationships and the consequences thereof:
Venus afflicted by Mars or Saturn indicates indulgence in inappropriate relationships. If Mars and Saturn are placed in the seventh house from Venus or the Moon, the individual may suffer from broken marriages and scandal. Venus placed in Scorpio or debilitated in a chart also points to a disturbed marital life, sometimes ending in separation due to misconduct.
Proper assessment of these combinations is essential to guide individuals towards corrective measures and healthier life choices.
