Ārūḍha
MANIFESTATION OF LIFE
• Everything manifests from Ārūḍha including
weaknesses, sufferings and troubles
• We examine the AL6 and AL8 in some charts
ॐ Tripod of Life
1. Bhāva is based on rāśi
= Resources (Aditya -
Sun)
2. Pāka Lagna, the
knowledge, is like Guru Āruḍha Lagna
3. Āruḍha Lagna, the MOON SUN
image, is like the Moon
4. Everything manifests Pāka
through ārūḍha
5. Just as Lagna is most JUPITER

important of houses
(pradhāna), so also its
image Ārūḍha Lagna is
most important  Every House has a resources
associated called Bhāva
 Manipulation of resources is the
work of its lord (i.e. Pāka)
 What manifests from this is Āruḍha
ॐ
Ārūḍha Bhāva
Mark the sign having “AL”
as the “Manifested Image”
The houses are reckoned
from this sign called
Ārūḍha or Pada Lagna
House indications are
similar to the bhāva
indicated by Parāśara for
houses from Lagna
However, the results are
“more pronounced”
Ārūḍha shows the
“Sources” through which
things manifest
Effects of Planets are
based more on their
lordship of natural signs of
the Zodiac.
Moon is the significator of
the Ārūḍha
ॐ Ārūḍha and Planets
• Everything about the person is the Ārūḍha Lagna
• Benefics Jupiter, Moon (Sattva) and Venus, Mercury
(Rajas) associating the Ārūḍha show a likable, socially
successful personality. This can lead to fame and great
success
• Sun is reclusive and brings a royal or spiritual image
• Saturn spoils the reputation due to weaknesses,
alcohol, drug additions etc., and consequential lying to
cover-up these weaknesses
• Rāhu shows excessive consumption and greed which
can come from denial and addictions while Ketu shows
one who renounces easily, a donor and an elite. Either
way, they can lead to impoverishment of the ārūḍha.
• The aspect and conjunctions brings a mixed effect of
the personality
ॐ Ārūḍha Creation
1. Rāhu or Saturn  Very low (Saturn) mean-minded
(Rāhu) qualities
2. Mars or Mercury  Labour, Worker, Service
3. Jupiter  Priests who perform daily worship
4. Venus  Teacher, Preacher, Speaker
5. Jupiter or Venus dṛṣṭi Malefic(s)  normal good people
not very strict about spiritual discipline; kṣatriya etc.
6. Sun  distinguished person or government officer
7. Ketu  Elite person or sadhu
8. If Moon or Venus  Lady
• Moon is with Saturn  bad women;
• Moon + Venus + no malefic(s)  very good lady
• Moon + Jupiter  Chaste Lady …
In this manner examine the planets and see the
“blooming of the person” in Ārūḍha from the seed in
Lagna.

Much suffering after death of father @ 9 years age [mysterious disease which
doctors failed to diagnose]
“I changed my religion and became Allah Rakha Rahman: My mother's belief in spiritual healers
grew stronger after our family went through a rough patch following my father's death. Sufi saint
Karimullah Shah Kadri changed our lives and all of us converted to Sufism. But it wasn't an
instantaneous decision — it took us 10 years to convert. The change in religion was like washing
away the past. In 1982, I left Dileep Shekhar behind and became Allah Rakha Rahman.”
