TIMING OF MARRIAGE/RELATIONSHIP.
PRIME DETERMINANT OF MARRIAGE
(1) The lord of the seventh house. In case there is no mooltrikona sign
in the seventh house, then the lord of the houses signifying marriage ( the
second, fourth, eighth or twelfth house containing mooltrikona sign) are
considered.
For various ascendants the following planets are prime determinant of
marriage:-
Aries Venus
Taurus The Sun
Gemini Jupiter
Cancer The Sun
Leo Saturn
Virgo Venus
Libra Mars
Scorpio Jupiter
Sagittarius The Moon
Capricorn The Moon
Aquarius The Sun
Pisces Mercury

(2) Venus and Jupiter are significators of marriage for males and females,
respectively.
(3) The planets closely influencing the most effective point of the house(s) signifying
marriage or their lords act as secondary determinants of marriage.
Marriage can take place in the sub-periods of the strong planets placed in the houses
signifying marriage. These planets become additional secondary significators of
marriage.
If the prime determinant and the significator of marriage are strong and there is no
affliction to the most effective points of the houses signifying marriage, the marriage
takes place at the appropriate time. The good strength of Venus hastens the process.
The delay is caused by:
(1) The close influence of the functional malefic planets or the most malefic planet on
the prime determinant and secondary significators for marriage;
(2) Prime determinant of marriage being weak or badly placed and/or afflicted by the
most malefic or a functional malefic planet.
(3) When the prime determinants and secondary determinant(s) are weak and/or are
afflicted.
(4) When the lords of the eighth and/or twelfth houses containing a mooltrikona sign
are weak, badly placed and are afflicted.
The influence of the functional malefic planets delays while the influence of the most
malefic planet (MMP) delays inordinately and/or denies. The malefic influence of the
MMP cannot be mellowed without persistent performance of the appropriate astral
remedies. If there is a mooltrikona sign in the eighth house from the ascendant, its lord
is called MMP. In case there is no mooltrikona sign in the eighth house, then the role of
2
the MMP is played by the lord of the twelfth house containing the mooltrikona sign. In
case there is no mooltrikona sign in the twelfth house, as well, then the role of the MMP
is played by Ketu.
APPLICATION OF ASTRAL REMEDIES
To expedite and ensure greater possibility of the desired event two way application of
astral remedies are made:
a) Strengthening of weak functional benefic planets.
b) Propitiation of afflicting/functional malefic planets.
