V??abha is the 2H of the natural zodiac ruling face, speech, family, wealth, among many other things. It is fixed, earthy and an even sign. The sign is ruled by ?ukra, the karaka for a relationship, sex, semen, and comforts and luxuries. ?ani being the karaka of vices, uncleanliness, misery, diseases and losses, influences the sign and it through one or more of these significations.\r\n\r\n?ani placed in V??abha corrupts ?ukra and the sign. ?ukra is the karaka for a relationship, and Pure Graha?s influence, such as Jupiter, indicates purity in the relationship. ?ani, on the other hand, indicates uncleanliness and impurity in relationship matters. Hence such natives are prone to be non-committal in matters of relationships. They have multiple relationships, wives, or go after many women or women of questionable characters. This, however, can?t be said if ?ukra and 7L are strong and influenced by benefics. ?ani is the karaka for old age, maturity and ancient tradition, and it can incline one towards matured women.\r\n\r\nWhile analyzing a matter in someone?s life, one should not infer based only on one factor. However, consider 1) strength and association of the karaka 2) Grahas placed in the karaka?s sign 3) Grahas placed in the Bhava under consideration, 4) Strength and placement of Bhavesha? here the sign and bhava of the bhava lord need to be considered.\r\n\r\nIf ?ani happens to be the 7L and placed in V??abha, it increases the chances of going to prostitutes. This becomes even stronger if ?ukra is conjoined Mars and is in either 6th or aspecting the 6H. Likewise, if ?ani is in the 7H in V??abha for Scorpio Lagna, this can indicate such indications.\r\n\r\nThe crucial thing to keep in mind is that the Grahas-Rasi Phala needs to be judged from a bhava standpoint. Without considering the Lagna of the native and the bhava being influenced by this combination, it is impossible to conclude anything. ?ani stays in a sign for 2.5 years; however, it will be idiotic to say that all born during this 2.5 years time-frame will all go to prostitutes.\r\n\r\nHaving said that, this does not discount the importance of the Graha rasi phala. In some cases, it can become the determining factor between multiple possibilities. Now the natural 2H is also the house of food and feeding; what is the impact of ?ani?s placement here? The native becomes a voracious eater. Perhaps such people don?t distinguish between nutritious or non-nutritious food. This can give inclination towards partaking putrid, unhealthy, unclean, addictive food; that causes weaknesses and diseases.\r\n\r\nBeing in the natural house of the treasury gives ordinary wealth. Being the friend of the lord ?ukra, it does not provide utter poverty. If it has any connection with complexion matters, say by being in the Lagna or being the Lagna lord placed in V??abha, the native is given a darker complexion.
