Aries lagna, born 1970 — career, marriage, foreign

• Chart pointers (PVNR): Lagna Aries (1°31'–32'). Moon 28°10' Leo. In the Rasi, lagna lord Mars, 5th lord Sun and 4th lord Moon yoga together in the 9th house (Sagittarius); Mars–Jupiter parivartana (Mars in Sagittarius ↔ Jupiter in Aries). In D10: Sun (5th lord) + Mars (lagna lord) form a Raj Yoga in the 6th house of service; Saturn (10th lord) in own house in the 10th; Rahu + Venus (7th + 11th lords) in the 3rd (Kama trikona).

• Career: Surgeon-type doctor (Sun+Mars; Mars = surgery). Service-oriented, works 24/7 even running his own clinic (Raj Yoga in 6th). Entrepreneurial drive shown by 7th + 11th lords in the 3rd. Sun+Mars in Nirriti's dashamsa → cutting-edge / high-tech (cardiac) procedures; Saturn in Ananta's dashamsa → patient foundation-laying research.
• Marriage: Married August 27, 1998. Strong three-planet yoga (Moon, Mars, Sun, all friendly, all in Sagittarius 9th).
• Foreign: Wants to go to the US as a research scholar. Saturn (11th + Bhadaka lord in D4) links 7th/9th/12th + Bhadaka, but as a functional malefic the residence abroad will be unstable / visiting rather than permanent settlement.

• August 27, 1998 — Marriage — D9 Vimshottari: Moon Mahadasha, Jupiter Antardasha. Jupiter chosen over Sun because Jupiter is the dispositor of all the Raj Yoga planets (Sagittarius is Jupiter's sign), is a functional benefic in Aries (atimitra via parivartana), and has 3/4 aspect on Venus (7th lord). D9 Char Dasha: Leo Dasha — Venus (7th lord) aspects Leo; taking Leo as lagna, lagna lord/yogakaraka/7th lord fall together in the 5th. Transit: Sun + Rahu transiting Leo (the dasha sign).
• From August 2008 — Libra Char Dasha (D4) running toward going abroad: Libra = 7th in D4, occupied by Jupiter (9th + 12th lord), aspected by Saturn (Bhadaka lord); taking Libra as lagna, lagna lord Venus debilitated in 12th + 9th/12th lord Mercury with Rahu/Ketu.
• 2011 (reference window) — going abroad transit — Saturn (Bhadaka lord) in 12th; Jupiter transiting to Aries (7th from Libra dasha sign and 7th from natal lagna). May 2011: Mars, Venus, Sun, Jupiter all in Aries (= 7th from Libra dasha sign: 7th lord Mars, 9th lord Mercury nearby, lagna lord Venus, Bhadaka lord Sun) → strongest window.

Career

6th house in D10 = service domain — works hard, solves problems, "at the whims of the employer," and works 24/7 even in his own clinic. Sun+Mars = surgeon (Mars = precision instruments, operating). Nirriti dashamsa for Sun+Mars = cutting-edge / frontier high-tech surgery; Ananta dashamsa for Saturn = patient, guideline-bound foundation/research work. (Why cardiology specifically — PVNR declines to claim; would need a comparative study of many cardiologists.)

Marriage

Three friendly planets (two benefics + one neutral) in the 9th give a good yoga capable of major positive life events. Delivered in Moon MD / Jupiter AD because Jupiter is the dispositor-"president" of the Raj Yoga planets, benefic, and well placed.

Foreign travel

During Saturn's D4 dasha he travels and moves a lot but trips are short/medium-range; because Saturn (the activating planet) is a functional malefic afflicting the lagna-lord + 5th-lord "stay-at-home" yoga, settlement abroad will not be stable or prosperous — think visiting, not settling. The Libra Char Dasha + 2011 transits give the actual window. A planet in the 10th of D4 (and 10th of D10, Saturn) shows the residence change is career-linked (research).

• Dispositor-as-antardasha-giver: when a Raj Yoga forms in a sign and the sign's lord is also a functional benefic in a strong/friendly position, that dispositor's antardasha is the best candidate to deliver the yoga (he is the "president" of the planets in his sign).
• 6th vs 7th house in D10: 6th = service (hard work, problem-solving, employer-bound); 7th = business (desire-/ambition-driven). Sun+Mars Raj Yoga in 6th + 7th/11th lords in 3rd = enterprising and hardworking simultaneously.
• D10 Dikpala deities: Nirriti dashamsa = unconventional, cutting-edge, frontier work; Ananta dashamsa = foundation-laying, patient base-building research (corrected: Brahma = Urdhva/upward, Ananta = Adha/downward base).
• Functional malefic activating foreign travel moves the person but denies stable settlement.
