 ARIES
ASCENDENT (MEESHA)
Aries is a fire sign ruled by Mars,
a planet of reaction. Aries
people are dynamic, aggressive, competitive and
have great initiatives. They are often impatient,
willful impulsive and headstrong. Aries
need to get things done without much delay
before they become tired of slowly plodding along and therefore
dropping the project to begin another that will give faster
results. They make good commanders as they
can accomplish much if they are allowed to be in
charge of the action therefore pushing others.
Independence is a keyword for Aries
as well as headstrong.
When Mars is strong for the Aries ascendant,
then their ability to be in charge of people
is greater. They can be interested in sports
and have good initiatives for their career.
They can be administrators and have stamina
and vitality. Aries
is the Mooltrikona for Mars
and therefore the ruler of the first
house. A well placed Mars in the chart
enhances the individual's purpose, character and
personality.
When Mars is weak, then
the person may suffer from impatience,
temper or lack initiative and stamina.
They may be prone to headaches or accidents.
The Moon has its mooltrikona
sign in the fourth house
for an Aries ascendant,
which is the sign of cancer, therefore
a strong and well placed Moon will give
ease and comfort to the mother and will
bestow the person with general inner contentment
with good education and property. If
the Moon is weak for an Aries ascendant, then there
will be obstructions in education, loss of comforts
and mental peace, with difficulties to the mother.
The Sun rules the fifth
house for an Aries ascendant
in the sign of Leo, the mooltrikona
for Sun; therefore a strong and well placed sun
will give courage, intelligence, patience and good
fortune. A weak sun will give
the person poor digestion, anemia and troubles with
children.
Mercury has Virgo,
its mooltrikona sign in the sixth
house and is a malefic planet for the Aries
ascendant, but if Mercury is strong
in the chart, then it will protect its health
and will overthrow opposition and hidden enemies.
If Mercury is weak and combusted
by the sun, then the person will suffer
from weak health and will be reckless
and will endure opposition and disputes.
The nervous system will also be affected.
Venus has Libra,
its mooltrikona sign in the seventh
house and is a functional benefic planet.
A strong Venus gives the person a good
and beautiful spouse and blesses them with a taste
of pleasure, music and love for adventure. If Venus
is weak, then marital unhappiness
will occur and the person will be lacking enthusiasm,
a positive aspect of a well-placed Venus.
Jupiter has Sagittarius,
its mooltrikona sign in the ninth
house which enhances a person's spiritual belief
if strong and has benefits derived from the
father. The person will have good teachings
and good fortune. If Jupiter is weak,
then there may be difficulties in the father's
life. Prosperity can be hampered
and there may be difficulties with teachers.
Saturn has Aquarius,
its mooltrikona sign in the eleventh
house that signifies gains, friends, elder brothers
and fulfillment. A strong Saturn
in the chart can slowly but surely bring about good
income, loyal friends and support
of older siblings. A weak Saturn
in the chart will bring about loss of income, gains
and friendship. There will be difficulties
with elder brothers and sisters. There
may be problems with knees, ankles and bones.
For the Aries ascendant,
Mercury, Rahu and Ketu are malefic. By
wearing the unfavorable gemstones, the
malefic energies of these planets will
be enhanced. For instance, enhancing
Mercury, ruler of the sixth house (signifying
disputes, enemies, and health), one could be enhancing
these attributes. Of course for every ascendant, Rahu
and Ketu act as functional malefics
and therefore the gemstones hessonite and Chrsylberl (Cat's
eye) are seldom recommended to be worn.
