houses resulting in the growth of the same. Thus the
prospects of children, love etc ruled by the 5th house
are enhanced by the 7th house (marriage). The family
'and wealth (2nd house) grows, name and profession
are enhanced (10th house) and good fortune (9th
house) results from a beneficial seventh house. Simi-
.larly the Upachayas from the 7th house are the 9th,
12th, 4th and 5th houses. These houses depend on the
beneficence of the 7th house to grow. Thus,for example,
if malefics are in the 9th house they bring misfortune
on the native and being in the third (copulation)
from the 7th house, cause the spouse to become very
brave to the extent of forgetting social norms for
extra-marital relations. This has been described by Sri
Krishna* as the loss of dharma (9th house) resulting
in corruption of women.
10.1.4 The Marriage is seen from the Upapada
(Arudha pada of the 12th house UL or A12) while the
Business is seen from the Darapada (Arudha pada of
the seventh house A7). However, the partners for both
business and sex are seen from the Darapada. Thus, if
the darapada is in a dusthana (6th, 8th & 12th) from
the Arudha lagna the physical relations with wife will
either be negligible or not be there. This is also not
good for business stability. However, if the darapada
is in the 3rd/llth from Arudha lagna, there will be
cordial physical relations with spouse but poor business
prospects. If the darapada is in a quadrant or
trine from the Arudha lagna, SRIMANTAH YOGA
results. Length of married life is a separate issue and
should be seen from the Upapada. A couple could
stay married long because of the strength of the
Upapada and still sleep apart because of the darapada.
