Of the nine planets, Jupiter is undoubtedly the most benefic planet. Jupiter is the Devaguru or the Guru of the Gods. A well placed Jupiter gives excellent luck, good spiritual inclinations, education and knowledge of the scriptures, deep rooted culture and ethics and many more. The following are the effects of Jpiter placed in the twelve houses from the ascendant.
Jupiter effect in First House!
If Jupiter is in his own sign (Sagittarius or Pisces) in the first house (ascendant) the native will be a good speaker and well-versed in Shastras. He will have full knowledge of three Vedas good number of children and will be happy, long lived and learned. If Jupiter is in his sign of exaltation (Cancer) all the above results will be fully realised and in his 16th year the native will enjoy the effects of Maharaja yoga so caused by Jupiter. If Jupiter is in the house of his enemy, or in the house of a malefic, or is associated with a malefic or in his sign of debilitation (Capricorn) the native will indulge in sinful deeds, he will have an unstable mind and a medium span of life. He will be childless, ungrateful, full of false vanity, will forsake his near relations and well wishers, likes travels, will be inimical towards others and be miserable.
The logical reasons -Jupiter is the greatest benefic amongst all the planets. The first house in the horoscope is the most ideal position for Jupiter. He gets directional strength in this house and casts benefic aspects on the 5th house (signifying children, intellect etc), the 7th house (signifying wife, marriage, married life etc.) and the 9th house (signifying religious mindedness, bhagya, prosperity, father etc). If Jupiter is in the first house in a horoscope, it indicates that the native is blessed with the grace of God. According to Jatakadesamarga, when Jupiter possessed of exceeding strength with clear bright rays, occupies the lagna, the child born should be declared to be free from all afflictions. This means that Jupiter posited in a kendra position to the Moon wards off all evils (that would otherwise befall on a child) caused by all the planets, just as a lion, though single, is able to kill thousands of elephants. Jatakaa Parijata says:- If a powerful Jupiter in his full rays is posited in a kendra (1,4,7,10), he alone wards off all aristhas just as a sincere prayer to God Mahadev destroys all sins of the devotee.
Thus all the good results will definitely be realised if Jupiter is not in any way afflicted. If afflicted, the native will have to face a few negative effects.
If Jupiter is in Sagittarius in the ascendant, he will be there as lord of the 4th and the ascendant. If Jupiter is in Pisces, he will be there as lord of the ascendant and the 10th house. If Jupiter is in Cancer (his sign of exaltation), the ascendant will be Cancer and he will be there as lord of the ninth. These are very beneficial dispositions for any horoscope. The disposition of Jupiter in Sagittarius, Pisces or Cancer in the ascendant (Lagna-Kendra) also gives rise to Hamsa yoga (a Panch Mahapurusha Yoga), the effects of which are:
”The native’s legs will have the markings of a conch, lotus, fish and ankusa. He will possess a handsome body; he will be liked by others; he will be righteous in disposition and pure in mind.”
Jupiter effect in 2nd House!
If Jupiter is in the second house the native will be rich and intelligent. What he foretells will come true. In his 16th year he will enjoy financial gains and agricultural prosperity. He will also be very powerful. If Jupiter is in his own sign (Sagittarius or Pisces) or in his sign of exaltation, the native will be very prosperous and wealthy. If Jupiter is associates with a malefic there will be obstacles in educational pursuits and the native will be a thief, liar and will have vulgar speech.
If Jupiter is in his sign of debilitation and associated with a malefic, the native will be a drunkard and immoral. He will be a destroyer of his family and will have relations with other people’s wives. He will also be childless.
The logical reasons -The second house is native’s Dhana bhava. Jupiter in the second will give the native financial prosperity early in his life. According to the author second house also deals with education and Jupiter associated with malefics will cause obstacles in the educational sphere. The second house also signifies speech and family. Jupiter associated with malefics will make the native immoral in every respect. Jupiter is a significator for children. If he is afflicted or is in his sign of debilitation, there will be no issues. If Jupiter is in Sagittarius the ascendant will be Scorpio and Jupiter will be in the 2nd house as lord of the 2nd and 5th houses. If Jupiter is in Pisces, the ascendant will be Aquarius and Jupiter will be in the 2nd as lord of the 2nd and 11th houses. If Jupiter is in Cancer (his sign of exaltation), the ascendant will be Gemini and he will be in the 2nd as lord of the 7th and 10th houses. These dispositions give rise to powerful Dhana yogas. For Virgo ascendant also Jupiter will be very beneficial in the 2nd house. cont...
