If Venus is in the first house (ascendant) the native will be proficient in mathematics and long-lived. He will be loved by his wife, fond of ornaments, good dresses and beauty. He will be liked by women, will be wealthy and learned. If Venus is in conjunction with a benefic like Jupiter, full Moon, or Jupiter in birth lagna, the person will have a lustrous body shining like gold and will own many golden ornaments. If Venus is associated with of aspected by a malefic or is in his sign of debilitation (Neecha-sthana; Virgo), the native will be a thief and a cheat and will suffer from rheumatic and phlegmatic diseases. If the lord of the first house is associated with Rahu the native will suffer from hydrocele. If Venus is in the ascendant and the fourth house is occupied by a benefic, like Jupiter, the native will own elephants (conveyances) and enjoy high prosperity. If Venus is in his own sign (Taurus or Libra) the native will enjoy Maharaja yoga (great name, fame and wealth). If Venus is lord of the 8th, 6th or 12th.house or is weak, the native will have two wives, his fortune will be fluctuating and he will be hard hearted.
My comments :-The effects given in the above Sutras are logical and relevant to the significations of Venus and the first house or birth-lagna. In Sutra 11th it is inter alia stated that if Venus is lord of the 6th, 8th or 12th house, the person will suffer from evil effects mentioned therein. While such effects may be realised if Venus is in the ascendant as lord of the 12th house; it will not be so if he is lord of the 8thor 6th. When he will be lord of the 8th or 6th house he will be in the first house, in his own sign Libra or Taurus and the effects of his being in his own sign will prevail over the effects of the 8th or 6th house as already accepted by the learned author in Sutra 10th where it is said that if Venus is in his own sign (Taurus or Libra) the native will enjoy Maharaja yoga. For Virgo, Capricorn and Aquarius ascendants, Venus is a yoga karaka planet, being lord of 2nd and 9th houses, lord of 5th and 10th houses, and lord of 4th and 9th houses, respectively. Such Venus in the ascendant will prove immensely beneficial to the native and bring him, name, fame, wealth, conveyances and all worldly comforts. If Venus in the ascendant (Lagna Kendra) is in his sign (Taurus or Libra) or in his sign of exaltation, Malavya yoga (a Panch Mahapurusha yoga) will be formed, the effects of which have been given as under:-"The person will have a well developed physique, will be strong minded, wealthy, happy with children and wife, will command vehicles, endowed with clean sense organs and be renowned and learned."
3) Varahamihira (3rd century A.C.) (author of Bruhath-Jathaka) : The person concerned will be skilled in amorous sports (sexual course activities) and will be happy. 4) Manthreswara (author of Phala deepika) : The person will have an attractive body, charming eyes and will be happy and long lived.
5) Maha-Raja Kalyana Varma (10th century A.C; king of Vyaghrapaada kingdom) (auth0r of Saravali) : The person will be handsome in every respect, happy and long-lived. He will be liked by women and an expert in amorous activities. 6) Naryana Bhatt (5th century A.C.) (author of Chamatkara Chintamani) : The native will have an attractive body and will like the company of noble persons. He will be suitable for the company of beautiful women. He will perform pious deeds and will enjoy high class comforts.
7) Jataka Kalanidhi : GANIKA, DAARA-PRIYA, VASTHRA-ALANKAARA-PRIYA, GANDHA MAALYA-AMBARA-PRIYA, STHRI-PRIYAA = When Sukra is in lagnam (birth house = ASD), 1st house, the person is a mathematician; loves his wife very much, he has desire for gorgeous clothes, jewelry, perfumes, scents, flower-garlands and the like; he loves women very much. If Venus is in his own house, Taurus or Libra, or he is in Pisces, exalted, the benefits are a thousand-fold.
