Rule 3 of Varaha Mihira applies aptly to this chart since the Moon is in Leo in Nava Amsa
is conjunct with Mercury. Rule 8 of Kiranur Nataraja also applies since Mercury is in a
Kendra (7th house) in Rasi. Venus and Mercury are conjunct in Kendra both from Moon (4th house) and lagna (7th house). Jupiter is in 10th house (Kendra; Sri Narayana sthana) from lagna and in 7th house (Kendra; Sri Narayana sthana) from Moon (Rasi lagna). Jupiter and Saturn are in mutual opposition, that is in mutually 7th houses and aspect each other (7th drushti). So his efforts to spread astrology met with a lot of opposition from politicians and atheists. But finally his efforts bore fruits. Jupiter is on the meridian (10th house) in Rasi chart. He is the key planet in the horoscope and bestowed him outright success in his profession as an expert astrologer. Saturn is the lord of birth lagna (Aquarius) and is beneficial (yoga-karaka). Venus is the lord of 9th house (Libra) and Mars is the lord of 10th house (Scorpio) forming a Raja yoga in a Kendra (Sri Narayana sthana) (7th house) from lagna and (4th house) from Moon. Jupiter aspects (9th drusthi) Sun. There is a special yoga for proficiency in the science of astrology : When the lord of 2nd house is strong and or is exalted and Mercury is posited in a kendra (1.4.7.10 houses) or in a kona (1,5,9 houses) or in 11th house (of a friend), the person will be proficient and foremost astrologer in the world. Mars is the ruler of 10th house (Scorpio) from lagna; as well as 10th house from the Sun (Aries). Mars is the ruler of Nava Amsa in which the lord of 10th house from the Moon is located. Sloka (Sanskrit sloka) 6 of chapter-22 of Horasara attributes to Mars the following professions for livelihood. “ If the Nava Amsa in question belongs to Mars, the person takes up a profession of a teacher, and has proficiency in manthras or any of vedangas (like astrology and or Ayurveda medicine), or fire or medicnes / drugs.” Prof, Raman was a teacher of astrology, and author of many good books in astrology. ----------------------
The natal chart of a person must have some good yogas for an astrologer of gift and
intuition. Yogas like Saraswathi Yoga, Malavya yoga, Bhadra yoga, Hamsa yoga and with Mercury. Jupiter and Venus in Kendras or konas (in own house or house of exaltation)
I did my best effort to outline the important features a horoscope must possess, to make the person an expert astrologer. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
