The cause of childlessness
- When Jupiter occupying thc 5th bhava is seen by a malefic planet, the loss of issues results in consequence of a deity’s curse. If Jupiter be in conjunction with or aspectcd by the lord of the 3rd bhava, the loss of children is due to the curse of Brahmins.
- If the lord of the 5th bhava be in conjunction with Mars and aspected by the lord of the 6th bhava and is devoid of benefit aspect, the loss of issues should be traced to the wrong done to enemies.
- If a malefic planet be in the 4th bhava and the lord of the 5th be in conjunction with Saturn and the 8th or the 12th bhava be occupied by a malefic planet, the loss of issues is in consequence of offence against the mother.
- If a malefic planet occupy the 9th and the lord of the 5H be in conjunction with Saturn and if Mandi be in a Trikona position, the loss of children should be ascribed to offence against the father.
- If the 5th bhava be occupied or aspected by Rahu or Ketu, or if the lord of the bhave be similary placed, the loss of children is brought on by offence against a serpent.
- If Jupiter, 5L, 7L and Mars be together in one bhava, the wise asrrologer may declare the loss of sons and daughters to arise from trouble caused by evil deities.
- The signs Taurus, Leo, Virgo and Scorpio are termed as childless rasis.
