If the lords of kendra(4th house) and trikon(5th house) are both posited together in 8th house, is this a positive yog or not? What can be expected during the mahadasha of the 5th lord [if 5th lord is also 8th lord and is exalted in 8th house along with 4th lord (which is also 9th lord)]. Note- If it helps, the Ascendant in this case is Aquarius.

Most astrologers interpret transits from the lagn or the chandra lagn and there is debate about which should be prioritised. Obviously, shani transits like dhaiyya and sadesati are seen only from the chandra. Ashtakvarga is another technique to fintetune the results of the transit through a house, which may be strong or weak as per the number of bindus. But what about benefic aspects to a house i the natal chart? If a house is aspected by a benefic or its own lord, it gains strength. Should we not then take that into consideration as well. If Shani passes through a certain house, which is aspected by its own lord in the natal chart, can we say that the problems related to shani will be more manageable because the house is strong? Thanks.

सर, अगर वृष लग्न कि डिग्री 1 हो और शुक्र की स्थिति बहुत अच्छी हो पर मंगल बहुत पीड़ित हो तो ऐसे में क्या उसको मध्यम पीड़ित मान सकते हैं क्योंकि मेष राशि की भी 14 डिग्री लगन में पड़ रहीं हैं।।
