The first and most important step in astrology is to know about the role of planets for each ascendant, in other words one need to determine the functional role of planets for each ascendant i.e. benefic and malefic.
So this guide will help you with that, and once you master it, i guess it will be easy for you to gauge the effects of planets for each ascendant.
Planets acts on humans with two types of significations one is static which is applicable to all like Venus signifies luxury, pleasure, marriage and is universally applicable to each of us.
Then planets also have modified significations which they acquire due to their lordship of houses which differs from ascendant to ascendant.
For example, Venus due to its lordship over malefic houses 3rd & 8th for Pisces ascendant gives bad results during its period.
Here, though Venus is a natural benefic, but for Pisces ascendant it will act as a negative planet and will disturb signification of the house, where it is sitting or aspecting.
These significations of planets are dynamic and changes from ascendant to ascendant due to their lordship over houses.
Planets always keep their static signification with them no matter which houses they are ruling in your horoscope. They always carry their inherent qualities negative or positive along with dynamic.
Mars is a malefic planet but for Pisces, but is equivalent to
For any planet its necessary for them to be strong, so that they can protect their significations and can provide good results as per their natural & dynamic significations"
For Pisces natives, Mars rules over auspicious 9th and neutral 2nd house.
Here if Mars is sitting in ascendant then Mars will give some short temper which is its natural signification, along with that mars will provide good luck, moral values, self-made wealth and all other good attributes of 2nd & 9th house.
Before moving on to the role of planets for various ascendants it is necessary to know what our seers have said in this regard.
Rules Which Define Planets as Benefic or Malefic
This article particularly is based on B.P.H.S. Since the role of planets as per their lordship is dealt in it thoroughly it's best to follow what Sage Parashar have said in it.
As per Parashar :
1. Ascendant, 5th and 9th lords are auspicious for all Ascendants.
2. Benefics owing Kendra's tend to loose their benefic qualities but they don't behave exactly like a malefic, till they are associated with other malefic houses or their lords.
3. Malefic owing Kendra houses tend to loose their malefic tendency but they don't behave like a complete auspicious planet unless they are associated with benefic houses or their lords.
4. Lord of 11th, 6th and 3rd houses are most malefic in decreasing order.
5. Lord of 2nd, 8th and 12th house acts as neutral.
6. Lord of 2nd, 8th and 12th houses when simultaneously lords over 3rd, 6th and 12th, then they acts as the most malefic planet for that Ascendant.
For example, Mars rules over 3rd & 8th house for Virgo Ascendant and is termed as most malefic planets for Virgo Ascendant.
Same way Saturn rules over 2nd and 3rd house for Sagittarius Ascendant and acts as a malefic planet for them. For Scorpio ascendants, Mercury rules over 8th and 11th houses and acts as a most malefic planet.
7.For a planet to act as a benefic or auspicious, its mooltrikona sign should fall on 1st, 5th or 9th house.
For example, in the case of Gemini Ascendant Saturn though rules over 8th and 9t house but Saturn's mooltrikona signs falls on 9th house which is a trine hence Saturn acts as a benefic for Gemini Ascendant natives.
Though in such cases where a planet simultaneously lords over benefic and malefic house, it's important that planet should be strong so that it can protect the signification of its ownership.
In the case of Cancer ascendant Jupiter rules over the 6th and 9th house but Jupiter's mooltrikone signs falls in 6th house which is an evil house as per Parashar.
Now here if Jupiter is weak i.e debilitated, combust, in evil houses and lacks required shadbala. Then Jupiter will act more like a malefic and will give negative results to native because due to weakness in strength, Jupiter won't be able to protect its significations and its evil nature due to lordship over the 6th house will be more pronounced.
8.As per Parashar a planet acts as an Yogkaraka if it rules over a trine and quadrant simultaneously. Saturn rules over 9th & 10th house in Taurus Ascendant & For Libra Ascendant it rules over 4th and 5th hence acts as a Yogkaraka for them.
Same way Mars is Yogakaraka for Cancer & Leo ascendant.
Venus is
On practical ground its is found that Natural malefic when Yogakaraka gives better results than natural benefices which are Yogakaraka.
It's because as per Parashar, natural malefic when lords over quadrant loose their malefic tendencies and when simultaneously they rule over trine house, they tend to produces very beneficial results during their periods.
9. As per Parashar Sun and Moon can't be termed as malefic when they rules over 8th for Sagittarius and Capricorn ascendants. This statement holds true only when Sun & Moon are strong and are not associated with lords of 3rd, 6th and 11th.
As per Parashar 8th house is a neutral house whereas Sun & Moon rules over only one zodiac therefore he didn't pronounced negative results to their 8th house lordship.
But readers should not take Parashar's verdict as final in this regard and should see that he already have mentioned that association of 8th lord with 3rd, 6th and 11th makes a planet evil giver in its Dasha.
The rules of astrology should be interpreted holistically and lots of analysis should be done by astrologer where holistic approach is much needed since nothing in astrology scriptures is plain and simple and we can't pick and apply rules straight way.
Since we talked about lordship of planets over 8th house I want to direct attention of readers over Role of Mars for Aries Ascendant natives.
There is wide a confusion over role of Mars for Aries Ascendant where Mars simultaneously is ruling over a trine and so called dusthana house i.e. 8th house.
As per many Mars is a neutral planet for Aries Ascendant native and even malefic as per some. I didn't find any logic behind this and its shows lack of research on their part.
As per Parashar when mooltrikone sign of planets falls over 1st, 5th and 9th house then such planet behaves as benefic, check rule no 7.
Same time as per Parashar 8th house lord acts as neutral unless it rules over 3rd, 6th and 11th simultaneously, check rule no 5, 6 and 9 as stated above.
Readers should judge this by themselves that Aries sign is falling on 1st house which is a mooltrikone sign of Mars and Scorpio is falling on 8th house which is a neutral house and there is no-lordship of 3rd, 6th and 11th involved here. Does it make any sense to declare Mars as malefic or even neutral for Aries ascendant.
Does it make any sense to declare Mars as malefic or even neutral for Aries ascendant.
This bogus statement came from those who didn't care to read what seers have said about lordships of planets and also due to general conception regarding 8th house & its lord where most of people think 8th house and its lord is the most malefic in astrology but they lack the knowledge that 8th house lord is most feared only when same planet have lordship over 3rd, 6th or 11th house simultaneously.
Like Mars in Virgo and Venus for Pisces ascendant. On its own 8th house is a neutral house that's why as per sages for Sagittarius and Capricorn ascendants, planet Moon and Sun acts as neutral despite being lord of 8th.
The reason is simple Sun and Moon don't have any other ownership apart from Cancer and Leo signs and hence are not connected to any other house especially 3rd, 6th and 11th.
Coming back to the main topic, sages have classified planets as natural benefic and malefic. These Significations are the core of astrology and is very much required to classify thousands of signification under only 9 planets.These natural Significations came from Kaalpurush zodiac scheme.
As per sages planet Jupiter and Venus are first rate natural benefic planets.
Moon is benefic when it is in waxing phase and have sufficient paksha bala i.e moon should be at least 4 house away from Sun.
Mercury is of dual nature and usually changes its nature due to its association. When associated with benefics like Venus and Jupiter, Mercury acts as benefic. While with Mars, Saturn, Rahu, Ketu and Sun it acts as malefic.Sun is a mild malefic in nature.
Saturn, Mars, Rahu and Ketu are dire malefic planets when categorized naturally.
Keeping all these points stated above I am listing down the role of planets for different ascendants.
Readers are advised to be flexible in approach and should try to check these information on actual horoscopes.
Functional Benefic & Malefic Planets For Aries Ascendant
PLANET MARS: Mars rules over the first house & its mooltrikone signs falls in ascendant hence Mars is a benefic planet for Aries ascendant natives.
As stated earlier in article many people describes Mars as neutral or sometimes even malefic for Aries ascendant.
I didn't find any logic behind this and since mooltrikone sign of Mars i.e. Aries falls on 1st house while its other sign Scorpio sign falls on 8th house which is a neutral a house as stated by Parashar.
Hence I am pretty convinced that Mars is a benefic and auspicious planet for Aries ascendant natives. Mars in first house creates Ruchaka yoga and when exalted in 10th house creates strong Ruchaka yoga since Mars is exalted, Digbali and aspects ascendant from 10th results of Ruchaka yoga will be very effective in natives personality.
PLANET SUN: Sun rules over 5th house and is a benefic planet for Aries ascendant natives and give good results of associated with 5th house i.e progeny, gains from speculations, success in love affairs and when associated with other trine lords produces Raj Yoga.
However, Sun should be strong enough to produce good results as stated above.
PLANET MOON: Moon is a natural benefic but rules over 4th house which is a Kendra house and as per Parashar rule natural benefic ruling Kendra house looses its benefic effects. Here for Aries Ascendant if Moon is strong by virtue of its zodiac placement and has good paksha bala, preferably Moon should be at least 4th house away from Sun to gain enough Paksha Bala.
Then it can bless native of Aries Ascendant with luxury, mental peace, good comforts, and cars.
But when weak or afflicted, the moon tends to produce opposite results of what stated above. Being 8th to 9th house Moon when weak can affect fathers health.
Moon association with Mercury & Saturn can cause havoc in lives of Aries Ascendant natives during its period of operation example Ruchaka yoga
Same way Moon and Saturn union is not auspicious for domestic peace but can confer native with financial gains.
PLANET MERCURY: As stated above in the beginning 6th and 3rd house lords are most evil and produced negative results in its period. Association of Mercury with Venus & Saturn can produce severe health problems during its Dasha.

Jupiter association with Mars and Sun produces Raj Yoga. While it's association with Saturn may not be that fruitful though as per classic Yoga dictionary association of 9th and 10th lord creates Dharma krama adhipati Yoga but here Saturn being lord of 11th house which is an evil one andJupiter being lord of 12th doesn't generate much good results for native.
Jupiter association with Mercury can cause problems to natives father but will bless the native with good writing abilities.
Jupiter association with Venus will prove good for wealth of native and spouse will be virtuous due to Jupiter good effects over 7th lord Venus which is karaka of wife also. Well aspected Jupiter in 4th house bless the native with good results of Hamsa Yoga.

Well aspected and strong Saturn in 7th and 10th will bless the native with strong results of Sasa Yoga.

It's quite logical that Venus is benefic for Tauras Ascendant since it rules over first house which is a Trine & Kendra simultaneously and ascendant lord can never be a malefic because its the most important planet in your horoscope. Though here, if Venus is weak or associated with lord of 3rd,8th,11th and 12th, it can awake 6th house signification of Venus and can affect native life negatively.

Dear sir
If the functional benefic and malefic characteristic of planet in birth chart and Moon chart differ i.e. a planet is functional benefic in birth chart and becomes functional malefic in Moon chart, what shall be the final characteristic of planet i.e what we should consider it?
S.C.kaushik
hello sir, my ascendant is Capricorn and my venus in 7th house and and 7th lord in 6th house. according to that will my spouse will die in young age
Hi
For aries ascendant, if venus is aspected by 5th aspect of jupiter & venus on other hand is aspecting 9th house(jupiter’s house) via 7th aspect, so does this means they are associated with each other?
Also you have mentioned under aries ascendant that association of venus & mercury is not good for marriage, so does this means that would be partner will be always sick/health problems, or it means there would be always fights, tensions struggles in marriage?
Hi
You mentioned that Moon is benefic when it is in waxing phase and have sufficient paksha bala i.e moon should be at least 4 house away from Sun. My doubt is do we have to count the house in which sun is placed in birth chart or do we have to exclude that one & count from onwards? Please clarify.
Secondly I read that a debilitated planet in retrogression is considered as very strong. so does this means that an exalted planet in retrogression is considered as very weak?
Hi Shelly, you do need to count the house where Sun is placed.
Yes a planet in exalted state and in retrograde motion same time is considered as very good.
Typo, I believe it should be 11th house, it is under Virgo- Rahu Ketu
Rahu in 5th and Ketu in 10th and and exalted Ketu in 3rd and exalted Rahu in 9th house will confer good results to native, provided their depositors are well placed.
OMG, I don’t know how many typos are there, anyways thanks, Nilima Ji 🙂
There is one confusion on one hand,under virgo ascendant you have mentioned that:
Jupiter to give auspicious results it should be well placed and under influence of auspicious planets i.e Venus, Mercury and strong SATURN. Jupiter in 4th and 7th house creates Hamsa Yoga and if well aspected then it will bring all good results to native.
but on other side under hamsa yog, you have mentioned that:
Jupiter should not be afflicted by natural malefic like Mars, Saturn, Rahu or Ketu. SO confusion is:
DOES ASPECT OF SATURN OVER JUPITER CREATES HAMSA YOG OR NOT?
Hello Ruchi nice to see you here 🙂 ok, see here we need to differentiate between natural and functional nature of planets like for some ascendants for example Virgo, Saturn is usually a positive planet unless heavily afflicted(affliction leads to emergence of 6th house effects of Saturn) now because Jupiter has kendraadhipatya dosha and same time as per parashar rule when benefics rules kendra they tend to act as malefic but usually we put them under neutral category unless aspected by benefics(functional like here Saturn, Venus, and Mercury is). Now in Hamsa Yoga article, I have given general guidelines where obviously natural malefic should not afflict Jupiter otherwise full results won’t materialize. Here obviously we need to keep an eye on the functional role of these natural malefics also.If they are benefic then they will support all kind of yoga and if malefic than not.
Hamsa Yoga forms for following ascendant:
1. Aries in 4th house.
2. Gemini in 7th and 10th house.
3. Cancer in 1st house.
5. Virgo in 4th and 7th house.
6. Libra in 10th house.
7. Sagittarius in 1st and 4th house.
8. Capricorn in 7th house.
9. Pisces in 1st and 10th house.
Now, check where Saturn is functional benefic and for those ascendant Saturn will support Hamsa Yoga. Also, for Gemini and Virgo assessment of Saturn requires an expert eye.
Let me know if it helps you.
Thanks ya for long explaination…though saturn in virgo asc. is positive and is having 3rd aspect over jupiter but since mars is most malefic for virgo so if saturn is placed along with mars in 2nd house so definately it becomes afflicted.. so I think its not supporting hamsa yog.
very good article. but being a beginner I want to understand how does one planet gets associated with another planet? For eg: You wrote under Tauras Ascendant if mercury association with strong Venus and Saturn creates Raj Yoga.
Hello Ruchi, good question and for that i wrote a article which you can check, here is the link https://www.thevedichoroscope.com/2017/02/23/different-ways-planets-gets-connected-with-each-other-in-astrology/.
Herer after reading the article, if you have any question plz let me know.
typo under Libra as you refer to Taurus ascendnet so quite confusing
Hello Lucy, thanks for the corrections.

thank u for comprehensive articles.appreciate ur efforts. i have a doubt.i am kumbha lagna with saturn retro and debilited in aries aspected by mars venus from 9th house. is saturn week and needs to be strengthened or saturn has turned malefic and needs to be appeased.(saturn is uccha in navamansha though with rahu in 7th )
Hello Icarus sorry for the late response, your Saturn is not weak because it is retrograde. As per my experience and also by Sages a debilitated planet in retrogression is considered as very strong. It makes one very motivated in life and they can turn things in their favor by sheer courage and efforts. Though other planetary placements also matter here and a holistic analysis is very necessary.
You Saturn is exalted in navamsha which is most important too because Saturn stays in debilitation for a long period of time and it is not advisable to stress on Saturns position in D-1.
Its navamsha and other relevant divisional charts should be given more importance.
Hope this helps and you can comment back for more discussion.

Naveen
