Combust Planets and Remedy in Astrology

When a planet comes very close to the Sun the planets considered combust. Sun
illuminate where sit in the house. Sun combust the planet so that we can see our
mistake. Sun is purifying planet, it is mild malefic, cruel, and purifying the things
which we needed for our soul growth. Every planet represent certain qualities
when a planet is combust it loses its positive qualities. Due to heat of Sun the
planets which are close to Sun does not feel comfortable and it becomes angry or
frustrate and lacks the power of what they represents as living karaka and the
house they rule.

If the combust planet is a functional malefic for the chart……and /or the lord of
6,8, 12th house…or the combustion occurs in the dusthans....then the malefic
impact of combust planet is even more severe.

3. Natural enemies of sun are more impacted by combustion.

4. If sun is a malefic for the chart.

5. Conjunction with or the aspect of a malefic on the combust planet increases the
severity of combustion

6. If the combust planet is Lagna lord also.

Effect of combust planet:

1. During it’s period
2. More importantly when a slow moving malefic transits over the combust planet
or it’s Mool Trikona house or over the ascendant if the combust planet also
happens to be the lagna lord.
3. When the combust planet transits over the natal combust planet…….if it is a
fast moving planet and the dasa/antara of the planet is running.

Let us say if a person get burned. What happens to that person? The person
feel pain, irritated, angry and physically uncomfortable. Same Thing
happens with the planets when they come close to sun. Every planet give
different result when they are combust, because they represent different areas of
life.

Combustion as the result of certain life lessons and energies not being validated
in our childhood, many times by the father (The Sun). In such cases, as a child the
father or authority figure may have been too busy or just emotionally unavailable
themselves to validate and honour the needs of the native relative to the combust
planet.

e.g. Combust Venus would show a child who, when wanting to show love,
affection and appreciation, was rejected by a parent too busy, rigid or
unconcerned. Their affection and love was not appreciated and a deep
hypersensitivity surrounding love, affection and feeling appreciated was the
result.
Anytime a planet it falls within that degree with sun, the Sun rays will be combust
the planet. These degrees of combustion are:

Moon: 12 degrees
Mars: 17 degrees
Mercury: 14 degrees – 12 degrees when retrograde
Jupiter: 11 degrees
Venus: 10 degrees when direct, 8 degrees when retrograde
Saturn: 15 degrees

Moon is said to be combust when it comes within 12 degrees on either side of the
Sun.

Mercury is said to be combust when it comes within 14 degrees on either side of

the Sun provided Mercury is in forward Motion. When Mercury is in Retrograde
motion, the degree of closeness for combustion of Mercury becomes 12 degrees.

Venus is said to be combust when it comes within 10 degrees on either side of the
Sun, provided Venus is in forward motion. When Venus is in Retrograde motion,
the degree of closeness for combustion of Venus becomes 8 degrees.

Mars is said to be combust when it comes within 17 degrees on either side of the
Sun.

Jupiter is said to be combust when it comes within 11 degrees on either side of

the Sun.

Saturn is said to be combust when it comes within 15 degrees on either side of the
Sun.

Rahu and Ketu never become combust due to their closeness to Sun as they are
shadow planets.

When a planet becomes combust, it becomes weak by combustion and thus it

becomes unable to protect its significances fully and produce proper results
unlike a planet which is not combust and is capable of producing proper results.
So the study of combust planets becomes very important in order to make
predictions about the significances ruled by these planets in different horoscopes.
Combust planets need to be strengthened in order to get proper results for the
significances ruled by them. But strengthening the combust planets is not a
simple task and takes expertise. The job is comparatively easy when the combust
planet in a horoscope is working positively. In case of positive combust planets in
a horoscope, the best and the easiest remedy to strengthen these planets is to wear
gemstones for the combust planets. Wearing gemstones for the positive combust
planets provides them extra strength and they become capable of protecting their
significances and producing proper results.

But in case, a combust planet in a horoscope is working negative in

that horoscope, it becomes comparatively difficult to strengthen that planet. In
case of negative combust planets, gemstones cannot be prescribed for these
planets, as gemstones should not be worn for negative planets, even if such
negative planets are combust. Strengthening negative combust planets with the
help of gemstones can cause very bad results and thus use of gemstones should be
avoided in case of negative combust planets and gemstones should only be used
for strengthening positive combust planets. In case of negative combust planets,
the strength is provided with the help of Mantras and Poojas for these combust
planets and not by using gemstones. For example if Mercury is negative and
combust in a horoscope, the best way to strengthen Mercury for that horoscope,
so that it may produce proper results regarding its significances is to chant the
Beej Mantra of Mercury for as many times a day as is prescribed by your
astrologer and for as long a duration of time as is prescribed by your astrologer.
However this process is slow and may not show results as fast as the application
of gemstones for the positive combust planets. And apart from that this process
requires dedicated time and discipline on daily basis to chant the Mantras for the
combust planet or planets. That is why it is considered comparatively difficult as
compared to the application of gemstones. Another way of strengthening the
combust planets with the help of Mantras is getting a Pooja performed for the
combust planet. In this process a certain count of Mantras for the combust planet,
which is usually 125,000 and is chanted by a set of 2 to 5 Pandits in a time period
ranging from 3 days to 8 days, on behalf of the horoscope holder and the fruit of
this Jaap of Mantras is transferred to the horoscope holder by means of Sankalpas
done under the guidance of Vedic System of Karma Vidhaan and Vedic
Astrology. So the Mantras are chanted by the Pandits and the fruit is given to the
horoscope holder, and all this process works out at a much faster pace than
chanting the Mantras by yourself which may require years to accomplish a count
of 125,000 Mantras for a combust planet. The best suggested remedial
combination for negative combust planets is to get a Pooja performed first and
then start chanting the Mantra for that planet on daily basis if you are able to do
it.
