4. In the same sutra, it is further said that if the house-lords remain in exaltation or
become nourished by benefics (meaning seen or conjoined with by them), then
those bhavas will be effective (strong), and give good results.

5. If the lord of a house goes to its enemy's house or remains in a rasi of its fall, and yet does
not see its own bhava, then the bhava it represents becomes weak and does not work
satisfactorily.
For example, in a question whether a native will ever be able to amass wealth however
small or big may it be, or in a question, whether he will have children or not, according to
Parasara, it is to be seen, whether the lord of the 2 nd house is in lagna or in the 2 nd , 3 rd or 11 th place
from its own house (i.e., the 2 nd ) or whether it sees the lagna or its own house or is in exaltation.
If it so remains, then tell the native that he will always save something out of his earnings.
Whereas if it is found that the 2 nd bhava lord has gone to the 6 th , 8 th or 12 th place from lagna or
from its own bhava (own house ), then tell him unhesitatingly that, however big the amount he
may earn he wilt never be able to save anything.
Similarly, if the lord of the 5 th is in the 2 nd , 3 rd or 11 th place therefrom or if it remains in
lagna or sees it or remains in exaltation, then the native will have issues. On the contrary, if the
5 th lord goes to the 6 th , 8 th or 12 th from Lagna or from own bhava (the 5 th house), then the
native will never have any children; and if per chance, he gets any, they will not
survive during his lifetime. This is one of the methods for examining bhavas
according to Parasara.
But, in Bhrigu, different principles are adopted. No doubt, Bhrigu's mode is the
simplest of all, but, unfortunately, there is no comprehensive literature dealing with
illustrations.
I. The First Principle.—The learned Bhrigu, first of all classifies all the 9 planets
into two groups,—(1) natural benefics and (2) natural malefics. The natural
benefics according to this system are: (a) Guru, (b) Sukra, (c) Moon, and (d)
Budha. The natural malefics are: (a) Ravi, (b) Kuja, (c) Sani, (d) Rahu, and
