Male born September, 1942.
Chart of relative:

The sign Sagittarius rises in the ascendant. Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, Sun, Mercury and Venus are the functional benefic (favorable) planets. Besides Rahu and Ketu, the Moon is the only other functional malefic for the Sagittarians. Saturn acts as a Sun-like planet in this case.

This query was made on 21st February, 1996 when the relative of the native was admitted in a hospital due to high fever and pain in abdomen area. The relative was in the sub period of Saturn in its own main period. Saturn ruling the third house is placed in the sixth house and its mooltrikona sign house is under the exact affliction of Rahu/Ketu axis. The house of placement of Saturn is also under the affliction of the most malefic planet Moon. The transit Saturn was in extreme infancy on the date of admission in the hospital. The transit Mars was under exact conjunction with natal Ketu in the third house. Seeing this difficult transit it was advised that the illness of the native may be really serious. Whenever the most effective points of the houses are under exact affliction of Rahu/Ketu axis one is vulnerable to cancerous or critical illness.

The lord of the ascendant is weak in the natal chart due to extreme old age. The most malefic planet Moon is placed in the sixth house and closely afflicts sixth house, ruling health and twelfth house ruling hospitalization. Mercury is weak due to infancy, weak dispositor and placement in an afflicted house. Venus is weak due to debilitation, extreme infancy and exact affliction by Ketu to its mooltrikona sign house. The Sun ruling vitality is weak due to weakness of dispositor and exact affliction to its mooltrikona sign by Rahu and Ketu. Mars is weak due to combustion, weakness of dispositor and exact affliction to its mooltrikona sign house. The placement impact of Mars in the tenth house in close conjunction with the Sun, despite weakness of these planets, blessed the native with a management degree and a good placement with the government.

Advice: “The Astral remedies were advised but in view of the severe afflictions and the weaknesses of the planets the time appeared to be very difficult. The native was diagnosed with liver cancer and he died of the same on 25th April 1996.”

Query: "I am separated in marital alliance. Can I expect reconciliation and when?"

Female born August, 1972.
The sign Leo rises in the ascendant. The planets Sun, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn are the functional benefic planets while the Moon, Rahu and Ketu are the functional malefic planets. Mercury, Venus and Mars act as Sun-like planets.

The prime determinants for marital matters are Saturn and Mercury. The sign Virgo rises in the ascendant of navamsa (DIX) and the Mercury becomes the additional prime determinant for marriage. While Saturn is fairly strong and well placed in the birth chart, Mercury is badly placed in the house of losses and it is under the close affliction of the functional malefic planet Moon from the sixth house ruling disputes. The separation happened in the sub period of the Moon in the main period of Jupiter. Mars, ruling the fortune is weak due to combustion. Despite the strong Sun, Venus and Jupiter in the birth chart, the impact of close affliction of badly placed Mercury and the sub period of afflicting Moon could not be stalled. Meaning thereby that bad placements and close afflictions take their own course in the absence of Astral remedies. At the time of the query the Rahu/Ketu axis has already started a prolonged transit influence on the most effective points of the houses including the ascendant and seventh house. From July, 2017 the native would be in the sub period of Rahu in the main period of Jupiter and therefore the continuance of conflicts in the marital affairs and the problems of health are seen. Even during the sub period of Saturn in its own main period the marital affairs are not helped as at that time the transit Saturn would be in the sixth house for two years and six months.

The strong lord of the fifth house blessed the native with a good academic qualification. The strong Sun and Venus blessed the native with a job in the teaching profession.

Advice: “The native was explained the scenario and was informed that the operation of planetary periods do not indicate reconciliation in marriage. However we believe in the power of Astral remedies and these were advised to the native for sincere and religious performance which can change the sub period and transit results and can bring reconciliation in marriage.”
