The benefic and malefic houses for Mercury with respect to all the 8 references (7 planets and Lagna i.e. Ascendant) are given in the table below;
Basics about entries in each cell of the table:
As explained in one of the previous posts, an entry of 0 denotes a malefic position or a bindu (dot), and an entry of 1 denotes a benefic position or a rekha (line). A bindu (dot) is also called as a "karana", and a rekha (line) is also called as a "sthana".
How to read the table:
To get a quick and easy understanding of this ashtakvarga chart, let us take few examples.
Let us refer to the column titled “Sun” in the table. This column reveals the benefic and malefic houses for Mercury to occupy, with respect to Sun.
The 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 7th, 8th, 10th houses have 0. So these house from Sun are malefic for Mercury i.e. if Mercury is placed in one of these houses (with respect to Sun), it would exert malefic influence.
Similarly for rest of the houses (5th, 6th, 9th, 11th, 12th houses) 1 is placed, ensuring that if Mercury is placed in these positions (5th, 6th, 9th, 11th, 12th houses) from Sun, it would behave as a benefic influence due to its positional array in ashtakvarga chart.
The similar principle applies for the Lagna (Ascendant) as well, about which we would discuss in forthcoming post.
Namaskaar!
