1) It may be true
that hanging and waving go by destiny but the question is how successful would
be your married life. The matching of horoscopes specially in India and other
Asian countries is well known though the phenomena has traveled to West in a
limited way with the settlement of Indians abroad. Be that as it may, the
effect of planetary forces cannot be ignored.
2) While matching a
horoscope i.e. of boy and girl many points (Gunas in Hindu astrology) have to
be seen and matched so that happy and harmonious marriage may be the outcome.
Under Hindu astrology, one of the points for consideration is number of 'Gunas'
i.e in all there are 36 Gunas and achievement of 18 and above Gunas are
considered 'passable', 'good' and 'very-good' depending on the number of Gunas.
Marriage is normally not recommended where the Gunas are less than 18.
3) With a peep in the
pat, it would be noticed that marriages have been arranged by parents and the
selection of marriage partner had been left to mature mind of parents. As most
of the people known that with such arranged marriages, where couples had never
seen each other before marriage, degree of contentment in married life had been
higher. However, in modern times, things have considerably changed and some
marriages breaking early, resulting in divorce/ separation etc.
4) Age factor, while selecting a boy or a girl is equally
important. Subject to certain verifications, it is stated in some of the books
that most baffled wives seem to be those who are married at 18/19 with men
senior in age by 6/7 years and the common complaint from such ladies had been
lack of affection from their husbands after 5-6 years. However, this would
further depend on planetary position of each at the time of birth.
5) For marital
happiness, role of Mars/Venus as well as of Jupiter is important. Venus is one
of the most passionate planets ruling two signs of the Zodiac i.e. Taurus and
Libra. However the Venus is exalted in Pisces and debilitated in Virgo and is
considered detriment in Aries and Scorpio. Actually, the highest quality is
determined by Pisces and lowest by Virgo – all other expressions scattered in
between these two extremes. I have recently come across the horoscope of a
native (female) aged about 22 who had married a man (stated to be divorcee) of
her own choice and free will (love-tangle) because of the situation of Mars and
Venus.
6) The influence of Mars is considered to be crude and
aggressive and in the case of conjunction of Mars with Venus, great deal would
depend on the sing and the house in which conjunction take place. Precisely
Venus represents the passive influence and Mars aggressive.
7) A look at the
horoscope would broadly indicate the moral character of the native. For
romantic influences, consideration of 5th house of the birth chart is equally
important. Actually, even Mercury (normally a Eunch) and Uranus become
prominent in 5th house matter with a tendency for development of duplicity in
romantic matters.
8) In female charts,
Jupiter's placement, aspect etc. indicates about the husband. Some astrologers
take Mars as the signification of husband. But Jupiter is the most accepted
signification of husband.
9) All pitfalls are
created by the planetary position. But at the same time because of '
adjustment, and 'free-will', the bad results are avoided apart from the
differences, marriage will never break. Abrupt start and abrupt ending of a
affair is also pitfall. Similarly, a girl at sweet sixteen (student of XIIth
class or so) getting astray is another pitfall. The unwanted pitfall is when
the husband is caught running about other women by the wife. Without blaming
the husband, I would put it that way that planets (Saturn and Mars) are
responsible. Why an employer gets involved with his subordinate girl including
a maid-servant, the answer is planetary position.
