Planetary aspects are interchange of energies at great distances; the respective mass of each planet generates and radiates
its own specific energy-field. At times these planetary aspects take a lead over planetary conjunctions.[1] Planetary aspects
play an important role in predicting future events. However, there are three great differences between Western astrology and
Hindu astrology in computing these aspects - (1) in the former system the count is made from degree to degree, in the latter
system the count is made from sign to sign, (2) in the former system the aspect will be mutually the same i.e. if Mars and
Jupiter are in trine it can be expressed as either Mars Trine Jupiter or Jupiter Trine Mars, in the latter system if Jupiter is in
Aries and Mars in Leo, Jupiter will have full aspect on Mars but Mars will have 50% aspect on Jupiter and, (3) in the former
system certain aspects such as sextile are good whereas square and opposition are evil, the latter system does not have such
classification in which system aspects by benefic planets and those owning trines i.e. the 5th and the 9th, are always good,
and by malefic planets and those owning cadent houses i.e. the 6th, 8th or 12th, are always evil; moreover, the aspect of any
planet on its own sign strengthens that house and causes no harm to its indications.[2]

Nature of Aspects
Aspects of natural benefics, the Full Moon, Mercury, Venus and Jupiter, are considered to be productive of good results and
those by natural malefics, the Sun, Mars and Saturn, evil. Natural benefics owning evil bhavas, combust or in debilitation
sign or defeated in planetary-war (graha-yuddha) become tainted and prove contra-productive.[3] Natural malefics owning
auspicious bhavas, when they act as yogakarakas, tend to produce good results. These are the basic rules concerning
planetary aspects.
An astrologer is required to make a careful note of all planetary positions, conjunctions and aspects which collectively form
the fundamental basis for all predictions. Good results are produced by favourable planetary positions, and by benefic
conjunctions and aspects, if not, unfavourable, mixed or evil results are produced.[citation needed]
In Hindu astrology, which is sidereal and takes cognisance of nine planets - the seven afore-mentioned and the two Lunar
Nodes Rahu and Ketu, three systems are followed, namely, Parashari, Jaimini and Tajika. Indian astrologers favour the
Parashari System.

Mercury is at the 3rd and the 10th, at the 5th and the 9th, at the 4th and the 8th and full at the 7th. In actual practice,
astrologers seem to ignore partial aspects.
The full aspect of a planet on another planet with that aspect returned in full by the aspected planet is by itself deemed by the
ancient texts to be a major kind of Sambadha or planetatry association. The five major associations are 1) by mutual
exchange of sign, e.g. the Sun in Aries and Mars in Leo, 2) by mutual aspect of planets, e.g. Saturn in Aries and Mars in
Capricorn, 3) by occupying a particular sign other than its own, e,g. Jupiter in Pisces sign owned by Venus, 4) by occupying
mutual square positions, e.g. Jupiter in Aries and Mars in Cancer or Libra or Capricorn, and 5) by occupying mutual trinal
positions, e.g. Jupiter in Aries and Mars in either Leo or in Sagittarius.[4]
In Hindu astrology according to the Parashari system an aspect is counted from sign to sign. Planets do not cast their aspect
on signs that are the 2nd, the 6th, the 8th and the 12th from their sign of occupation, and also planets situated in the same
sign do not aspect each other. Planets cast their aspect on the entire sign. The two Chayagrahas, Rahu and Ketu, do not
aspect nor are they aspected even though the aspect of Rahu to the 5th and the 9th stands mentioned in the texts. But if the
sign occupied by Rahu is aspected by Jupiter then due to the quality of that sign it tends to behave well. Aspects of the lords
of auspicious bhavas such as the 5th and the 9th are particularly beneficial, and the aspects of the lords of evil bhavas such
as the 6th, the 8th and the 12th are particularly malefic.[5]

or conjunctions of the Sun, Rahu and Jupiter, the person will have many children, but if that house has only Moon's aspect
or conjunction, the person will have only one son, or if these combinations for many issues and no issues are simultaneously
found then predict birth of a child late in life.
Planets and rasis aspect other planets according to their dispositions which aspects' influences are affected for good or bad
by their presence from an aspecting lord or sign which are the affecting or influencing agencies called Argalas. The 4th, the
2nd, 5th and the 11th from the aspecting body are Argalas, malefic in the 3rd give rise to evil Argala, planets in the 10th,
12th and 3rd from Argala cause obstruction to such Argala. If planets obstructing Argala are fewer or less powerful than
those causing Argala, then the power of Argala cannot be affected, the houses or planets in the 5th and the 9th similarly
influence the Argala but in case of Ketu the formation of Argala and obstruction to it must be calculated in the reverse order.
B v Raman explains that the Argalas, generated by the disposition of planets as stated above gets cancelled by presence of
planets in the 10th, 12th, 3rd or 9th from the aspecting planet.[12]
Argala means obstruction or impediment for the free flow of planetary influences. Argala can, depending upon the
influences exercised by planets occupying certain signs, become modified to produce good or bad results.
