Vyaya Bhava 12th House- House of Loss.

The Vyaya bhava or 12th house: is a du-sthana (bad place), the most suitable Grah/Planet would be Inauspicious, debilitated, weak, Malefics here or strong Benefic like Jupiter or Venus, would give some beneficial results, better it is empty.

Vyaya bhava or 12th house relates to losses, expenditure, punishment, imprisonment, hospitalization, pleasures in bed, misfortune, bad habits, sleep, meditation, donation, secret enemies, heaven, left eye, feet, residence away from the place of birth, moksha (emancipation/liberation), not all are bad, but if the house or the Grah in this bhava are afflicted then the native would be deprived of Pleasures in bed, sleep, meditation, but it would help the native to achieve the ultimate the Heavens and the most desired the final Emancipation/liberation from this cycle of births and deaths, which is only possible when the native overcomes the desires, the native might feel the need to renounce the material world and live a very Sattvik and Spiritual life, then if the house is well protected or blessed by an benefic, then the native might not experience the general effects of the 12th bhava, like expenditure more then income, losses in business, over indulgence in sensual events, etc. etc. above all the most beautiful thing one should look in this bhava is the Eligibility or Entitlement for Emancipation/liberation (Moksha).

The natural 12th bhava is Pisces and the lord of this bhava is Jupiter.

Effects of Vyaya Bhava:BPHS

1-4. O Brahmin, now I tell you about the effects of Vyaya Bhava.

There will be expenses on good accounts, if Vyaya’s Lord is with a benefic, or in his own Bhava, or exalted, or, if a benefic occupies Vyaya. One will own beautiful houses and beds and be endowed with superior scented articles and pleasures, if Chandra (Moon) happens to be Vyaya’s Lord and be exalted, or be in its own Rasi and/or Navamsa, or in Labha/Dharma/Putra Bhava in Rasi/Navamsa. The said native will live with rich clothes and ornaments, be learned and Lordly.

5-6. And, if Vyaya’s Lord is in Ari (6th), or Randhr Bhava (8th), or be in enemy’s Navamsa ( D-9), in debilitation Navamsa, or in Randhr Bhava in Navamsa, one will be devoid of happiness from wife, be troubled by expenses and deprived of general happiness. If he be in an angle, or trine, the native will beget a spouse.

7. Just as these effects are derived from Tanu Bhava (1st House) in regard to the native, similar deductions be made about co-borns etc. from Sahaj (3rd)and other Bhavas.

8. Grahas placed in the visible half of the zodiac will give explicit results, while the ones in the invisible half will confer secret results.

9. If Rahu is in Vyaya along with Mangal (Mars), Sani (Saturn) and Surya (Sun), the native will go to hell. Similar effect will occur, if Vyaya’s Lord is with Surya.

10. If there is a benefic in Vyaya, while its Lord is exalted, or is yuti (Conjoined) with, or receives a Drishti from a benefic, one will attain final emancipation.

11. One will wander from country to country, if Vyaya’s Lord and Vyaya Bhava are with malefics and Vyaya’s Lord gives a Drishti to, or receives a Drishti from malefics.

12. One will move in his own country, if Vyaya’s Lord and Vyaya Bhava are with benefics and Vyaya’s Lord gives a Drishti to, or receives a Drishti from benefics.

13. Earnings will be through sinful measures, if Vyaya is occupied by Sani (Saturn), or Mangal (mars) etc. and is not receiving a Drishti from a benefic.

14. If Lagna’s Lord is in Vyaya, while Vyaya’s Lord is in Lagna with Sukra, expenses will be on religious grounds.

Kalyana Varma Saravali

69-70. ABOUT THE 12^th HOUSE.

If the Sun, or weak Moon is placed in the 12^th the native's wealth will be lost to the king, Mars posited in the 12^th in aspect to Mercury will cause losses in several ways, Jupiter the Moon (with increasing rays) and Venus in the 12^th will cause growth of wealth, provided there is no aspect from Mars on them. Rest may be understood from the previous portion

(Ch. 30). 

71. MISCELLANEOUS MATTERS.

Even a person born in regal scion will become an artisan, if the Ascendant in Mercury's decanate receives the aspect of the Moon from an Angle. 

72. Should Venus be in the 12^th House in Virgo identical with Saturn's Navamsa D-9, while the Luminaries are in the 7^th in aspect to Saturn, the natives mother though belonging to a noble race will become a slave. 

73. Should Saturn occupy the 2^nd House counted from the Sun, while the Moon and Mars, respectively, are in the 10^th cusp and 7^th House with reference to the Ascendant, the native will always be distressed. 

74. The native will suffer from pulmonary and spleen related disorders apart from tuberculosis, if the Moon is hemmed between malefics, as Saturn occupies the 7^th House.

75. Should there be an exchange between the Sun and the Moon in the Navamsa, the native will suffer from phlegmatic disorders. Should the Sun and the Moon be in one Rasi having identical longitudes, the native will be emaciated at all times. 

76. Should the 8^th, 2^nd, 6^th and the 12^th be, respectively, occupied by the Sun, Moon, Mars and Saturn, the native will lose his eyes due to the affliction caused by the strongest of the tour. 

77. If malefics occupy the 6^th, 11^th, 3^rd and 5^th, the native will suffer from ear defects, provided there are no aspects from benefic planets. Malefics in the 7^th unaspected by benefics will produce dental afflictions. 

78. There will be diseases of the mind, if Saturn occupies the Ascendant, while Mars is in the 5^th, or the 9^th. Alternatively, Saturn, while being in the Ascendant should be conjunct decreasing Moon to cause the said effects. 

Thus ends the 34^th Ch. entitled “DIFFERENT HOUSES AND WORLDLY AFFAIRS” in 
Kalyana Varma's Saravali.

Effects of Grah/Planets in Vyaya Bhava

If Sun occupies 12^th, at birth, he will have a deformed physique, be one-eyed, fallen (morally), will marry a barren lady, be inimical to his father, weak and mean.

If Moon occupies 12^th, the native will be odious, fallen in moral sense, mean, will suffer eye diseases, be indolent, distressed (deformed), is born of other's loins and will be insulted at all times.

If Mars occupies 12^th, the native will have diseased eyes, will fall in moral sense, will kill his wife, be a talebearer, be fierce and will contract humility and imprisonment.

If Mercury occupies 12^th, the native will be able to keep up his promise, be indolent, be humiliated, be a good speaker, be learned, pitiable and cruel.

If Jupiter occupies 12^th, the native will be indolent, odious, be devoid of speech and luck and will be in all probability in servitude.

If Venus occupies 12^th, the native will be indolent, happy, corpulent, fallen in moral sense, will eat cleansed food, will be skilful in providing sleeping comforts and attendants and will be won over by women.

If Saturn occupies 12^th, the native will be distressed, fallen in moral sense, talkative, will have defective eyesight, be unkind, shameless, will spend much and be insulted.

If Rahu occupies 12th: The general desire of the native is to stay away from the conventional public identity, there is a possibility that he/she might lead a lifetime of Travel and prayer, if the effects are Sattvic and might lead a lifetime of addictions, if the effects are Tamasic.

The native may be a genius of unconventional research, the native might not respect general boundaries set by nations, or society, the native is a child of the universe and represents the world at large, the urge which keeps pushing is to break the unnecessary taboos set by few mean people, and this native would not think twice before breaking such boundaries and many might see this native as a rebel, particularly those who try to set certain boundaries for their personal benefit, and when they see these natives crossing them unmindful of the person behind it, he might be labelled as a "rebel", but in reality he/she is a person with a larger boundaries which are artificially created boundaries. 

In this case sometimes the native might face resistance due to this free and frank attitude and mostly people with insecure personal auras might feel threatened by these great independent reformers, the reforms taken up by these individuals are at a large scale and might involve many nations at one go.

If Ketu occupies 12th: Native with Ketu in 12th house is not aware of the inner world but gradully reliazes the importance of spiritual life and abandons the desire for material benefits, when they are not fulfilled, so her/she might spend more time and energy for social activities , the native might suffer from restlessness, frustrations but overall might do well , due to his/her approach towards life and might suffer from ailments involving eyes.

86-87: If malefics occupy various bhavas (other than 6th, 8th and 12th), they bring harm to the bhavas, while benefics increase their potency, Malefics are auspicious in evil houses i.e.6th,8th and 12th, while benefics prove adverse in there bhavas.

According to the strength of yogakaraka grah/planets, their beneficial relationship, friendly/inimical aspects etc. and position in exaltation/debilitation, the results of bhavas can vary from aximum to minimum to negative.

Thus ends the 30^th Ch. entitled Effects of Planets in Bhavas in Kalyana Varma's Saravali.

The 11th bhava and 12th bhava are like your paycheck and payments, if the 11th house is stronger, the income remains higher then the expenditure and if the 11th bhava is weaker then the income would always be shorter then the needs and expenditure, this can also be seen with the number of points one has in the Astakavarga charts for these bhavas.

One more point, I have referred BPHS, Kalyana Varma's Saravali, G.Das, Barbara Pijan Lama to complete these sections.

Dharma Bhava-9th House

ॐ श्री गुरावे नमः !

ॐ नमः शिवाय!

Dharma Bhava- 9th House, 

Dharma is difficult to explain in one word as there is no equivalent word in English, it means more then just self righteousness, duty towards self, family, country, religion, and god, etc. the natural Dharma Sthana is Saggitarius and Dharma Karaka is Jupiter, its lord, so this house /bhava should be aspected by or posited by Jupiter for beneficial effects. 

Dharma Bhava relates with Father, teacher, boss, fortune, religiousness, spirituality, God, higher studies & high knowledge, fortune in a foreign land, foreign trips, deeksha (joining a religious order), past life and the cause of birth, grandchildren, principles, dharma, intuition, compassion, sympathy, leadership, charity, thighs.

Effects of Dharma Bhava: BPHS

1 Combinations for Fortunes. O Brahmin, now listen to the effects of Dharm Bhava. One will be fortunate (or affluent), if Dharma’s Lord is in Dharma Bhava with strength.

2 Should Guru be in Dharma Bhava, while Dharma’s Lord is in an angle and Lagna’s Lord is endowed with strength, one will be extremely fortunate.

3. Fortunate (Affluent) Father. If Dharma’s Lord is with strength, as Sukra is in Dharma, while Guru is in an angle from Tanu Bhava, the native’s father is fortunate.

4. Indigent Father. If Dharma’s Lord is debilitated, while the 2^nd and/or the 4^th from Dharma Bhava is occupied by Mangal, the native’s father is poor.

5. Long-living Father. Should Dharma’s Lord be in deep exaltation, while Sukra is in an angle from Tanu Bhava and Guru is in the 9^th from Navamsa Lagna, the father of the native will enjoy a long span of life.

6. Royal Status for Father. If Dharma’s Lord is an angle and receives a Drishti from Guru, the native’s father will be a king endowed with conveyances, or be equal to a king.

7. Wealthy and Famous Father. Should Dharma’s Lord be in Karma Bhava, while Karma’s Lord receives a Drishti from a benefic the native’s father will be very rich and famous.

8-9. Virtuous and Devoted to Father. Should Sūrya be in deep exaltation, as Dharma’s Lord is in Labha Bhava, the native will be virtuous, dear to the king and devoted to father. If Sūrya is in a trine from Lagna, while Dharma’s Lord is in Yuvati in yuti with, or receiving a Drishti from Guru, the native will be devoted to his father.

10. Fortunes etc. Acquisition of fortunes, conveyances and fame will follow the 32^nd year of age, if Dharma’s Lord is in Dhana, while Dhana’s Lord is in Dharma.

11. Inimical to Father. There will be mutual enmity between the father and the native, if Lagna’s Lord is in Dharma Bhava, but with the Lord of Ari. Further, the native’s father will be of contemptible disposition.

12. Begged Food. If Karma’s Lord and Sahaja’s Lord are bereft of strength, while Dharma’s Lord is in fall, or combust the native will go begging for his food.

13-25. Combinations for Father’s Death.

The father of the native would have passed away prior to the native’s birth, if Surya is in Ari (6th), Randhr (8th), or Vyaya Bhava (12th), as Randhr’s Lord ( Lord of 8th bhava) is in Dharm Bhava (9th), Vyaya’s Lord (12th) is in Tanu Bhava (1st bhava) and Ari’s Lord is in Putra Bhava (5th bhava).

Should Surya be in Randhr Bhava, while Randhr’s Lord is in Dharma, the native’s father will pass away within a year of his birth. If the Lord of Vyaya Bhava is in Dharma Bhava, while Dharma’s Lord is in its debilitation Navamsa, the native’s father will face his end during the 3^rd, or the 16^th year of the native. Death of father will occur in the 2^nd, or the 12^th year, if Lagna’s Lord is in Randhr Bhava, as Randhr’s Lord is with Surya.

Should Rahu be in the 8^th from Dharma, as Surya is in the 9^th from Dharm, death of father will take place in the 16^th, or the 18^th year of the native.

If Sani is in the 9^th from Chandra, as Surya is with Rahu, the native’s father will die in the 7^th, or the 19^th year of the native. The native in his 44^th year will lose his father, if Dharma’s Lord is in Vyaya, as Vyaya’s Lord is in Dharma.

If Lagna’s Lord is in Randhr Bhava, as Chandra is in Surya’s Navamsa, the native in his 35^th, or 41^st year will lose his father. One will lose his father in the 50^th year, if Surya, being the Lord of Dharma, is conjunct Mangal and Sani.

If Surya is in the 7^th from Dharma Bhava, as Rahu is in the 7^th from Sahaja Bhava, the 6^th, or 25^th year of the native will be fatal for father.

If Sani is in the 7^th from Randhr Bhava, as Surya is in the 7^th from Sani (Saturn), the ages of 21, 26, or 30 will be fatal for the father.

If Dharma’s Lord is in its debilitation Rasi, while his dispositor is in Dharma Bhava, the native will lose his father at the age of 26, or 30. Thus the Jyotishi's may know the effects.

26. Fortunes. One will enjoy abundant fortunes, if Sukra is in deep exaltation and be in the company of Dharma’s Lord, as Sani (Saturn) is in Sahaja.

27-28. Fortunate Periods. Abundant fortunes be acquired after the 20^th year, if Dharma has Guru (Jupiter) in it, as its Lord is in an angle from Lagna. Should Budh (Mercury) be in his deep exaltation, as Dharma’s Lord is in Dharma itself, abundant fortunes will be earned after the 36^th year.

29. Should Lagna’s Lord be in Dharma, as Dharma’s Lord is in Lagna and Guru (Jupiter) is in Yuvati, there will be gains of wealth and conveyances.

30. Lack of Fortunes.

If Rahu is in the 9^th from Dharma Bhava, as his dispositor is in Randhr Bhava and Dharma’s Lord is in fall, the native be devoid of fortunes.

31. Food by Begging. Should Sani (Saturn) be in Dharma Bhava along with Chandra, as Lagna’s Lord is in fall, the native will acquire food by begging.

32. O Brahmin, these are the effects related to Dharma Bhava. I have explained briefly. These may be estimated with the help of the state of the Lords of Lagna and Dharma Bhava and in other manners as well.

Thus ends the 32^nd Ch. entitled “NINTH HOUSE AND EFFECTS THERE OF” in Kalyana Varma's Saravali.

Grahs/Planets in 9th Bhava and the effects there from

If Sun occupies 9^th bhava, the native will be endowed with wealth, children and friends, will be very interested in worshiping Gods and Brahmin's, will not be well-disposed towards his father and wife and be not calm.

If Moon occupies 9^th bhava, the native will be devoted to divine and paternal assignments, will be endowed with happiness, wealth, intelligence and sons and will attract the fair sex.

If Mars occupies the 9^th bhava, the native will not be skilful in acts, be odious, will kill living beings, be not virtuous, be very sinful and honoured by the king.

If Mercury occupies 9^th bhava,the native will be very affluent, scholarly, of good conduct/habits, be eloquent in speech, skilful of a great order and be virtuous.

If Jupiter occupies 9^th bhava, the native will be attached to divine and paternal duties, be learned, fortunate, be a king's minister, or a leader and be chief.

If Venus occupies 9^th bhava, the native will possess a spotless and broad physique, be endowed with wealth, charitable, wife, sexual pleasures and friendship and will honor Gods, guests and preceptors/elders.

If Saturn occupies 9^th bhava, the native will be devoid of religious merits, will not have much wealth, be bereft of co-born, sons and happiness and will cause sorrow to others.

If Rahu occupies 9th bhava: Rahu intensifies the desire for exalted experience in divine rituals, often a native has a foreign guru, father does not benefit from this combination, might be associated with secretive activities involving international engagements, and to reach the truth the native destroys the natural barriers, Rahu in 9th house is not good for the native.

If Ketu occupies 9th bhava: Ketu in 9th effects the father, either father is never available or remains distracted, the Priests might appear deceptive, native might suffer from psychological complexes with regard to religious truths and might not trust the religious authorities and might wander in his own imaginative sensitivities to reach the essence of truth, which is perceived by him/her as an external entity. 

Ketu in 9th, effects the native in a negative way, with regards to his/her father, religion, teachings, etc. which might not be healthy for his/her.

So the bottom line for this bhava is this bhava should be connected with Jupiter in one way or other to derive or gain maximum benefits, other wise, things might not be as rosy as they are with Jupiter or Sun.

let me see my chart, I have Venus (8th in Rasi) in 9th bhava with Jupiter Aspecting it from the Ascendant, my Father was very dear to me and out of all siblings I was very dear to my father, but he passed away few months before his 64th birthday after suffering for 15 years, we had an excellent relationship, more as a friend then Father- Son, but I never crossed the line, I have intense religious beliefs, I have very high philanthropic ideals, I have very deep set principles and convictions, So Jupiter does confer all these properties.

With regards to eighth bhava, it is empty and is not Aspected by any planet, but the Rasi chart has Venus in 8th house, it is better to have an empty Du-Sthana (6th, 8th and 12th) then with an malefic.

It gets little confusing , when you say 8th house or 9th house. In Indian languages, Bhava means it is more Mental or psychological then physical presence, like a Graha/planet is present in 8th Sign in Rasi (Radix), but it gives effects of 9th house, because it is present in the 9th bhava, it is exactly like Planet in English is a physical body, but Graha in " Jyotish shastra", is more of a Mental, or psychological or metaphysical entity, or it is more like a powerful energy, which has the capacity to effect a living thing with its rays or aura from with in, but when we explain this in English, it appears they are like table and chairs, which is not correct.

Ari Bhava/Shatru bhava - 6th House

ॐ श्री गुरावे नमः !

ॐ नमः शिवाय!

ARI BHAVA- 6TH House of Enemies/Service/Servants/Relatives, Mental tension, Injuries, Health, Diseases, Agriculture, Accidents, Mental afflictions, Mother's younger brother and Hips. 

Ari ( अरिः ) meaning enemies, ( कामः  क्रोधस्तथा लोभो  मदमोहौ  च मत्सरः ) it means people who suffer from ambitions, wishful thinking, whims, anger, greed, addictions and jealousy, and the native has to understand that at a deeper level (Spiritual), all these things can also bother the native from with in himself or herself, as in the current Kali Yuga these anomalies are very infectious and easy to contract.

The 6th house denotes the strength, status and level of enemies one will have in his/her life, so it is always better to have a debilitated malefic in this house, and as the force needed to overcome or to conquer this enemy is seen from the strength of the seventh house, it is desirable to have a strong Benefic or an Auspicious Malefic like Mars or Sun, which would help to overcome the enemy, it is interesting to note that even children with a bad combination experience this effect, so it is very important to weaken the 6th house if it is effecting the native in a negative manner, with caution as 6th house also takes care of your income from jobs.

Other combination for enemies is the 7th house from AL (Aruda Lagna), if this house is loaded the native will face open enemies, who will go all the way out to express themselves and in the case if the 8th house has auspicious Mars or a strong Benefic, the enemy can be subdued.

Effects of Ari Bhava- 6th House

1. O Brahmin, following are the effects, produced by Ari Bhava (6th House), relating to diseases, ulcers etc. Listen to this attentively.

2. Ulcers/Bruises.

Should Ari’s Lord be in Ari itself, or in Lagna (Ascendent), or Randhra (8th House), there will be ulcers, or bruises on the body. The Rasi, becoming Ari Bhava, will lead to the knowledge of the concerned limb. 

3-5. Relatives Affected.

The Karaka of a relative, or the Lord of such a Bhava, joining Ari’s Lord, or being in Ari, or Randhra Bhava, indicates ulcers/bruises to such a relative, like father. Surya with such lordship and in such a Bhava denotes such affectation of head, Chandra of the face, Mangal (Mars)of the neck, Budh (Mercury)of the navel, Guru of the nose, Sukra (Venus) of the eyes, Sani (Saturn) of the feet and the Rahu and Ketu of the abdomen.

6. Facial Diseases.

Should Lagna’s Lord be in a Rasi of Mangal (Mars), or of Budh and has a Drishti on Budh, there will be diseases of the face.

7-8½. Leprosy.

Mangal, or Budh, having ownership of the ascending Rasi and joining Chandra, Rahu and Sani, will cause leprosy. If Chandra is in Lagna, which is not however Cancer, and be with Rahu, there will occur white leprosy. Sani in place of Rahu will cause black leprosy, while Mangal similarly will afflict one with blood-leprosy.

9-12½. Diseases in General.

When Lagna is occupied by the Lords of Ari and Randhra Bhava along with Surya, the native will be afflicted by fever and tumors. Mangal, replacing Surya, will cause swelling and hardening of the blood vessels and wounds and hits by weapons. Budh so featuring will bring in billious diseases, while Guru in similar case will destroy any disease. Similarly Śukr will cause diseases through females, Śani windy diseases, Rahu danger through low-caste-men and Ketu navel diseases. Chandra in Yuti (Conjoined) with the Lords of Ari and Randhra Bhava will inflict dangers through water and phlegmatic disorders. Similar estimates be made from the respective significators and Bhavas for relatives, like father.

13-19½ Timing of illness.

The native will be afflicted by illness throughout life, if Śani is with Rahu, while Ari Lord and 6^th Bhava are yuti with malefics. One will suffer from (severe) fever at the age of 6 and at the age of 12, if Mangal is in Ari, while Ari Lord is in Randhra. If the Chandra is in Dhanu/Meen, while Guru is in Ari from Lagn, one will suffer from leprosy at the age of 19 and 22. If Rahu is in Ari, Lagna Lord is in Randhra and Mandi is in an angle, consumption will trouble the native at the age of 26. Disorders of the Spleen will be experienced at the age of 29 and 30, if the Lords of 6^th and 12^th are in exchange of their Rasis. Sani and Chandra together in Ari will inflict blood-leprosy at the age of 45. If Sani (Saturn) is with an inimical planet, while Lagna Lord is in Lagna itself, windy disorders (like rheumatism) will trouble the native at the age of 59.

20-22. Unfortunate years.

Should Chandra be yuti with Ari Lord, while the 8^th Lord is in Ari and the 12^th Lord is in Lagna, the native will be troubled by animals at the age of eight. O Brahmin, if Rahu is in Ari, while Śani is in Randhra from the said Rahu, the child will have danger through fire at the age of 1 and 2, while in Sahaj year birds will bring some evils.

Danger through water will have to be feared during Putra and Dharma years, if Sūrya is in Ari, or Randhra, while Chandra is in Vyaya from the said Surya. Sani in Randhra, as Mangal is in Yuvati, all cause small-pox in Karma year and in 30^th year of age. If 8^th Lord joins Rahu in an angle/trine from Randhra Bhava and be in Randhra in Navamsa, the subject will be troubled by swelling of blood vessels, urinary disorders etc. during the 18^th year and the 22^nd year.

26. Loss through enemies.

Loss of wealth will come to pass during the 31^st year, if Labha and 6^th Lords exchange their Rasis.

27. Inimical sons. One’s own sons will be his enemies, if Putra Lord is in Ari, while Ari Lord is with Guru. Simultaneously Vyaya Lord should be in Lagna.

28. Fear from dogs. There will be fear from dogs during the 10^th and 19^th year, if the Lagna Lord and the 6^th Lord are in exchange.

Kalyana Verma Saravali:

Enemies. 

If the 6^th House is aspected by Saturn and occupied by Mars, the native will have fear from enemies.

Occupation, or aspect of benefics will keep one free from such fear. The number of enemies (causing trouble) will correspond to the number of planets posited in the 6^th House.

Effects of Grah/Planets in 6th house:

If the Sun is in 6^th, the native will be very libidinous, will have powerful digestive fire (capable of digesting fast), be strong, affluent, famous for virtues and be either a king, or an Army chief.

If the Moon be in 6^th, the native will suffer stomach diseases. If it be the weak Moon, he will be short-lived.

If the Mars occupies the 6^th, the native will be highly libidinous, will have powerful digestive fire, be beautiful, tall, strong and great among his relatives.

If the Mercury occupies the 6^th, the native will always be successful in litigations and disputes, will contract diseases, be indolent, not given to anger, be harsh in speech and much insulted.

If the Jupiter is in the 6^th, the native will lack digestive fire and masculine virile, be humiliated, weak, indolent, will become famous on account of females, will destroy his enemies and be widely famous.

If the Venus occupies the 6^th, the native will greatly dislike his wife, will have many foes, be devoid of wealth, be very much startled and be mean.

If the Saturn occupies the 6^th, the native will be very licentious, be beautiful, courageous, will eat abundantly, be crooked and will conquer many of his enemies.

If the Rahu occupies the 6th : When a Malefic occupies the dusthana ( 6, 8, 12th) the natural effects of those houses are neutralized and in fact the native derives good effects from that house in a way by not having the bad effects.

The influence of Police, underclass, outcast, foreigners, manipulators, thieves, liars, physicians, drug dealers, prostitutes, loan sharks and many other type of conflict agents are amplified in the natives life, the effect will be good or bad depends on the Rahu's lord being good or bad.

The native must learn to manipulate the manipulators, and in case of severe sickness might find cure in a distant foreign land.

If the Ketu occupies the 6th: Ketu in 6th house subdues the general understanding of the native in case of human behaviour, particularly the negative part or the immoral part, there by the native is a sitting duck for the human predators like, criminals, police, domestic animals, servants, quack doctors, loan sharks, any other form of exploitation, because the defensive shield of these natives is very thin or not present.

In case of sickness or any ailments the native has a gift of knowledge of medicine so they mostly cure themselves, they lead and win almost all the discussions and arguments, no matter how heated and hot they may be.

The native might be very dear to relatives, and is usually very large hearted, and very skilled, reputed and might enjoy good fame and honor, the main problem is from humans who can be very unfaithful, destroyer of enemies, but prone to accidents involving small animals.

The native with Rahu or Ketu in 6th House needs to take lots of precautions because they are prone to being taken for a ride by the very people they trust, I will suggest do not leave a single stone unturned and make sure, every loose end is well tied up and not dangling, it is not very bad, again it depends which house is the 5th or the 6th house.

Scorpio as the 6th house with Ketu in it, it is the own house of Ketu but, Rahu will be placed in 12th in Taurus and it is again the Permanent house of Rahu, where Rahu gets all the freedom to exercise his talents, and in this situation, Ketu looses its freedom and is kind of follower of Rahu, Rahu matures at 42 and Ketu at 48 Years. 

Mythology:

Rahu is a tail less head of a snake and Ketu is a head less tail of a snake, it was one demon, being a demon he sits along with the devatas and gets to taste the Amrit, when noticed is cut in to two by Mohini (Vishnu) during the distribution of Amrit.

Have fun if you can, because there is no escape from this situation, but again it depends on the other Grahs and Planets and their strengths and positions, like Mars if with Rahu, almost no effect, or Sani aspects Rahu etc. 

Remedy: अङ्गारक कवच and राहुकवचं/केतुकवचं.

ॐ नमः शिवाय!
