Making or breaking of Love

By Dr.CH.D.Ravindra Nath

Venus in the male chart and Mars in the female chart should be strong for a good married life. But, they should not be stronger than the Ascendant lord, lest it may lead to independent decision by the native in respect of marriage, resulting in a love marriage. The lord of the Ascendant, either joined with the lord of the 5th or the 7th, is one more indication of individual’s decision alone in the matter of marriage. During the Dasa of the seventh lord or the Dasa of the planets placed in the seventh house, the person may fall in love.


LOVE lingers around, as long as humanity has been around on this planet.The number of love affairs and relationships have increased multifold nowadays. Lovers are in the news when they succeed, fail or even when they break-up. News reports of celebrities in love or breaking-up their love always create interest to the public.

According to Brihat Parasar Hora Shastra - "If waning Moon is placed in the 5th, 7thor 12th and associated with malefic there is a chance of love marriage with a native of lower caste".

Venus in the male chart and Mars in the female chart should be strong for a good married life. But, they should not be stronger than the Ascendant lord, lest it may lead to independent decision by the native in respect of marriage, resulting in a love marriage. The lord of the Ascendant, either joined with the lord of the 5th or the 7th, is one more indication of individual’s decision in the matter of marriage.

If the Moon is malefic, weak or joined with malefic in a female chart, it makes the native weak-minded and unable to resist temptations. At the same time, if the Sun is strong, the native will be stubborn and strive for upholding the reputation of the family. Also, if the lord of the 5th joins or is aspected by the 7th lord, then the female native may marry a boy of her choice, in the circle of relatives.

Dr. B.V.Raman cites the following Astro-indications Rahu in 7th house - The native brings ill-repute to the family, she/he will be unconventional heterodox, and may involve in affair with outcaste women or foreigners.

Ketu in 7th house - The native has an unhappy marriage with a shrewish wife/husband. The native is passionate, sinful, lustful after widows/widowers. The native’s spouse will be sickly.

Sun afflicted by Rahu- affairs with women may lead to scandals.
Also if Ketu is in 5th or 7th or joins the configuration of love marriage, then the native opts for love marriage secretly.
However Dr. Raman also emphasizes on other planetary positions and aspects of planets, before coming to a conclusion.



Combinations for Love Marriage:

1. Venus in the male chart and Mars in the female chart falling under the influence of Rahu or Ketu. Likewise, Venus in the male chart and Mars in the female chart are in the same sign or in same Navamsa.

2. Lords of the 5th and the 7th in the same sign or in mutual aspect or in an exchange of signs.

3. Influence of Rahu and Ketu on the lords of the 5th and 7th.

4.9th lord in the 9th.

5.Exalted 5th lord joining Rahu or Ketu.

6.Strong Venus, without joining the Sun. Also Venus being in the 2nd, 4th, 5th, 7th or the 12th and the signdispositors are with malefic.

7.Mars in a trine in a female chart.

8.Ascendant lord in an angle or a Trine without being its own or exaltation.

9.Saturn, if placed in the 2nd house either from the Ascendant or the Moon, indicates love marriage with a foreigner. Saturn in the 3rd house gives scope for marriage with a known and familiar person.

10.Exalted 5th lord with Rahu or Ketu assist the Love marriage. (Exaltation signs for planets are: Sun in Aries, Moon in Taurus, Mars in Capricorn, Mercury in Virgo, Jupiter in Cancer, Venus in Pisces and Saturn in Libra.)

Role of 12th house in love marriages

The running dasa is responsible for ending of many love affairs. The sixth house in a horoscope is the Karak of violence. Love relationships may not be successful, if the Dasa of sixth lord or planet placed in the 6th is running. A love relationship may also come to an end, during the Dasa of the eighth house or the Dasa of planet present in the eighth house. Sun is considered to be a planet of separation. Hence, a relationship may come to end, if the Dasa of Sun is running, especially if Sun is present in the fifth house.


placed therein and those aspecting it throw some light on this issue. This is because the 12th house is 6/8 (Shashtashtaka) with the 7thhouse(House of marriage/spouse).
Natives having Sun in the 12th or aspecting it will generally be reckless in any matter. They care very little for society, prestige or family reputation. Mars, if placed like that, will create a number of hurdles in love.
Mars, if placed like that, will create a number of hurdles in love.
Mercury helps with novel methods for elopement.
Jupiter makes it one-sided love mostly in the same community, with inability to express love for fear of getting rejection or fall of family prestige.
Venus indicates valorous and audacious tendency to win in love matters.
Saturn supports love but with some abnormality of intercaste/inter-religious marriage.
Saturn supports love but with some abnormality of intercaste/inter-religious marriage.
Moon signifies success in love matters.
Rahu shows extra-marital love matters (loving someone, other than spouse, after marriage secretly)
Ketu shows extra-marital relations with lesser caste people.

With experience, it has been found that in the case of love marriages, Lagna Lord is found in Kendras (angles)- 1st, 4th, 7th or 10th houses, trines (5th house and 9th houses) or in 12th house. The exception is provided, when the particular planet happens to be in its own sign or in exaltation signs.

The Moon in the 5th or 11th denotes strong emotions. If the Moon is alone (no planet on either side), chances of the native being swayed by feelings of others are bright.

Timing of Love:
In Vedic astrology, marriage is predicted by analyzing the seventh house. During the Dasa of the seventh lord or the Dasa of the planets placed in the seventh house, the person may fall in love.

Beneficial Dasas for love matters
Dasa of the lord of the ascendant, lord of fifth or the lord of 7thare beneficial for success in love matters. The Dasa of Rahu acts as a catalyst for love. The relationships established in this dasa begin quickly and may be passionate, but they do not last for a long time. Rahu does not know the difference between right and wrong. Hence, a person becomes confused in the Dasa of Rahu. Venus is considered as the Karak planet of love. A person is in search and need of love in the Dasa of Venus. Moon is the Karak planet for the mind and heart. It is also considered a restless planet. Therefore, a person’s mind and heart become restless and there is a strong possibility of falling in love during the dasa of Moon too.
Most love affairs begin in the dasa of Mercury, Rahu, Venus and Moon, irrespective of their placement in any house.

A. Success in love matters: 1. Love marriage with a foreigner:
Case-Study 1 : Sonia Gandhi :


Balance of 13 years 9 months 24 days of Rahu Dasa at birth.


Strong Venus without joining the Sun (Rule 6) and Saturn in the second either from the Ascendant or from the Moon (Rule 9) caused love marriage with a foreigner to Sonia Gandhi (Case-study-1). Moon in the 12th signifies success in love matters.

2, Inter-religious marriage :
Case-study 2 : Indira Gandhi :


Balance of 1 year 2 months 25 days of Sun Dasa at birth.


There is a typical exchange of houses (Parivartana) between Sun and Mars, Venus and Jupiter, Moon and Saturn, conferring, a towering personality and generating Raja yogas. At the same time, the mutual 6 to 8 position of Venus and Jupiter, Moon and Mars, Saturn and Venus indicates unconventional attitude of the native. The planets showing religious inclination Venus and Jupiter were in Shashtashtaka( 6/8) and the direct aspect of Saturn on the 7th house resulted in a marriage, outside of Indira Gandhi’s religion.

Case-study 3: (Male) :


Balance of 11 months 10 days of Ketu Dasa at birth.


This native, an upper-caste Hindu, has married a Christian woman.Strong Venus is not influenced by Sun. The 8th house from the Moon sign is occupied by malefic planets. 7th lord Mercury joins the 9th lord Sun and the 5th and 12th lord Mars. The 7th lord Mars is also aspected by Rahu.

3. Reckless love marriage :
Case-study 4: (Male)


Balance of 5 years of Saturn Dasa at Birth.
(Source - How to judge a horoscope- BV Raman)


The native is of an upper-caste Hindu, who divorced his first wife and married a Parsi widow, who already had a child. This created furore in both the families at that time. Kalatrakaraka and lord of ascendant as well as lord of 8th Venus being aspected by 2nd and
7th lord Mars (maraka) is one reason for this abnormalcy. 7th house is occupied by Ketu, aspected by Mercury (9th & 12th lord), which resulted in the reckless attitude of the native. In Navamsa, the 8th house is hemmed between malefics. From the Moon sign, the 7th house is in Aquarius, aspected by the 4th and 9th lord Mars. The 7th lord Saturn joining the debilitated Jupiter (6th lord) indicates extra-marital affairs. 7th house, 8th house, lord of 8th from Rasi chart as well as Navamsa chart are spoiled because of Rahu, Ketu, Mars and Saturn.

4.Inter-caste marriage :
Case-study 5 : (Female) :


Balance of 4 year 10 months 29 days of Jupiter dasa at birth.


Mars is placed in a trine; the 5th lord Sun joins Rahu. Saturn is in the 3rd from the ascendant, resulting in marrying a teenage friend belonging to a lower caste.
Failure in Love : Reasons for separation in love relationships

The running dasa is responsible for ending of many love affairs. The sixth house in a horoscope is the Karak of violence. Love relationships may not be successful, if the Dasa of sixth lord or planet placed in the 6th is running. A love relationship may also come to an end, during the Dasa of the eighth house or the Dasa of planet present in the eighth house. Sun is considered to be a planet of separation. Hence, a relationship may come to end, if the Dasa of Sun is running, especially if Sun is present in the fifth house.

Case-study 6 : (Female) :


Balance of 4 year 5 months 9 days of Moon dasa at Birth.


This girl fell in love twice. The second time it was approved by her family members initially. But later it was objected by the boy’s side and the marriage did not materialize. The 5th lord Saturn and 7th lord Jupiter together in the 12th indicate strong inclination for love(Rule ii), while Mars in the 12th created obstacles.

Frustration due to love failure :
Case-study 7 : (Female) :


Balance of 3 years 4months 8days of Saturn dasa at Birth.
(Source Dwadasa Bhava Phalachandrika – Page 271, Chart 175)


This girl fell in love during Mercury Dasa, Saturn bhukthi, in January 2001. Mercury being the 5th lord encouraged the love matter. Ascendant lord Venus placed in trine (Rule No.8) gave yoga of falling in love to this girl. 12th house is being aspected by Jupiter, which was placed adversely in the 6th, in an enemy’s house. Three planets Mars, Saturn and Jupiter being retrograde, created a number of hurdles in her love matter. Jupiter retrogression resulted in her love being one-sided, without being communicated to her lover. Retrograde Mars prevented the native from being bold. Saturn retrogression resulted in voluntary break-up of love by the girl, for fear of objection from parents. Also, this girl attempted suicide, because of failure of love. She consumed pesticide, but luckily survived. Here Rule vii applies. The 8th lord placed in the 6th and Ketu in the 8th led to suicidal tendency in the native. Ascendant lord also in a trine (Rule viii) strengthened the love matter further. The strength gained by the ascendant lord Venus by placement in the 9th, foiled the suicide bid successfully.

B) Planetary combination, which prohibits love marriage:
Love marriage is not possible, when the lord of the fifth house is present in the ninth house or when the lord of the ninth house is present in the fifth house.

C) Illicit love affairs :
Rahu or Ketu in the 1st, 4th, 7th or 10th is an astrological indication for illicit love affairs, as mentioned in above charts. Rahu or Ketu at the places mentioned above is a sure sign of special attraction with opposite sex and it is quite enough for creating love affairs. These illicits affairs may be in any form such as pre-marital, postmarital or extra- marital.

D) Break-up of Love :
The seventh house in a Kundali is known as the house of marriage. Love is not converted into a marriage, if the seventh house or the lord of the seventh house does not have a relationship with the ascendant, the lord of the ascendant, or the fifth house/the lord of the fifth house or the ninth house/ the lord of the ninth house. Sometimes, combinations related to the success of love relationships are seen in the Janma Kundali and the seventh house also forms relationships with other houses and their lords, but these combinations are not found in a Navansh Kundali. It may also happen that both the fifth and the seventh house are weak and afflicted. Due to all these reasons, love relationships do not turn into marriages.

Role of retrograde planets in break-up of Love Venus being retrograde
in the natal chart indicates emotional frustrations, tendency to break-up in love, love failures, loneliness etc. These people feel that they are not loved by any one and develop frustration. They cannot adjust to external conditions and also cannot enjoy simple things liked by others, like music, art, humour, nature, relations etc. They remain stuck in their imaginary ideal love and blame society for being too materialistic.

Retrograde Mars in the horoscope indicates desires and actions delayed by uncertainities, lack of oppurtunity or unfavourable circumstances. It results in physical energy and vitality of the native being low. Particularly in love matters, retrograde Mars prevents the native from being bold and dynamic, required for the success of love.

Retrograde Saturn, in general, results in constant conflict with authority. In love matters, break-up results for fear of getting punished by authority. These people are shy to speak in public and would like to remain unknown. Inferiority complex is always present and these individuals think that they would not be able to compete with the status of others.

Case-study 8 : (Female) :


Balance of 9 years 5months 21days of Venus dasa at birth.


Lords of 5th(Mars) and 7th(Mercury) are in the same sign(Rule2). In Navamsa, both Venus and Mars are under the influence of Ketu. Saturn placed in the 2nd from Ascendant and also from Moon gave scope for love marriage(Rule 9). Hence, this girl is having ample yogas for falling in love. She fell in love with childhood friend. But she had to break-up her love, because of the following planetary indication. Retrograde Saturn in the second house posed the threat of opposition from parents(Authority).

This girl fell in love in Moon Dasa, Saturn bhukthi, around July 2013. In July 2016, this girl decided to break-up her love, while she was running Ketu bhukthi. As mentioned earlier, the dasa of Moon does break love. Moon is a karaka of mind and makes it restless to fall in love during teenage. 5th and 7th houses became weak, as their lords were joined with debilitated Sun, deprived of any auspicious aspects.

Case-study 9 : (Female) :


Balance of 16 years 7 months and 1 day of Mercury dasa at Birth.
(Source : Dwadasa Bhava Phalachandrika - Page 271, Chart 176)


This native fell in love during Venus Dasa, Moon bhukthi. Venus, as the 9th lord exalted in the 7th, encouraged the love matters, aided by manah karaka Moon in own house. Both the Nodes are debilitated. But the father of this native objected to this marriage for want of dowry. 12th lord Sun placed adversely in the 8th, debilitated Ketu in 9th, ascendant lord Mercury placed adversely in the 8th, resulted in break-up of this love, in Rahu bhukthi.
