Intercaste Marraige PDF
The navamsa here again gains a very major role. If navamsa also has rahu in the 7th or
afflicted with rahu or a malefic then also it gets blemished and gives intercast
marraige.
I remember a colleague of mine who was working with me. The 7 th lord jupiter was in
6 th and 6 th lord dispositor Mars was badly afflicted with Rahu. She had in the 5 th
house venus in its sign Libra. She had a love marraige recently -
she was a maharashtrian & the boy was a christian. Of course the 7 th lord was also
afflicted in Navamsa.
One point to note. A malefic will not hamper his own sign. For example - it is seen that
when saturn is aspecting his own sign aquarius / capricon which is placed in the 7 th
then his aspect will not dealy the marraige / afflict him.
Also, planets of functional nature and as per moon & Venus should be assessed.
Not to forget that Up-pada lagna if gets afflicted with rahu in rashi, navamsa or its
dispositor gets badly afflicted can cause terrible problems in marraige.
Those are guide lines to show inclination to choose one's partner on their own. Venus,
the planet of love should be associated with malefics like Saturn, Mars and Rahu. The
lust , if influenced by such planets, goes highly tamasic in nature. Enjoyment becomes
the primary importance. Seventh house shows , ones spouse or partner. Fifth house
shows one's furture and higher intellect. Any combo of Fifth house lord / Seventh house
lord shows one's desire to choose their partner on their own. Ninth house, the house of
dharma , if infulenced by malefics make one to break the rules by not listening to
Guru/Adviser/father/Elder(ninth house). But do not be mislead that such combinations
in Rasi chart alone can make one marry outside their cast. Within a gap of Two hours,
thousands of persons are born. Using internet, just find how many people are born all
over the world and just find out how many of them adopt caste system. Caste system is
prevalant only in a fraction of the world. To understand those rules, collect and analyse
charts of a few of your known people who have married outside caste
The present guest article is based on research directed towards marriages between
bride and groom belonging to different religions or faiths.
We, as a society, irrespective of caste or religion, are fairly traditional and high
premium is placed on conformance to a set of rules. As a result, we find it difficult to
accept change and are not comfortable in unfamiliar situations and circumstances.
Throughout our lives, we tend to maintain a very strong sense of “native” vs. “foreign”.
Marriage is one such institution in our society which is subject to lot of customs and
traditions. Compatibility of horoscopes, wealth, social stature etc. is given a lot of
importance. The procedure of marriage is highly ritualistic and the entire family of bride
and groom has a part to play.
Marriages outside of religion are still not accepted properly in our society. There is
opposition from the immediate family. Spouses are expected to convert, but it is not
easy to accept a faith or culture that one is not born with. If there is no conversion,
couples usually reach a compromise on the faith children follow. Overall, inter-faith
marriages present a lot of challenges that need to be worked out. The ratio of such
marriages being entirely successful is also not very high.
Lifelong relationship
In Indian culture, more often than not, marriage is for a lifetime. We choose to share
our life with one individual and the conduct, behavior and idiosyncrasies of one have a
profound effect on the other. In a manner of speaking, the husband and wife share a
destiny. An encouraging, sincere and devoted spouse is a blessing.
Nitin Kashyap has done this research and he presents the following principles and logic
behind the observations.
The karakas and bhavas for marriage, religion and “foreignness” are:
1. Jupiter and Venus: In female chart Jupiter represent husband and in male chart
Venus represent wife.
2. Fifth House: Fifth house represent our mentality and love affairs.
3. Seventh house: Seventh house shows one’s married life.
4. Ninth House: Ninth house represent religion and luck. This is what you would see to
judge “religion” in this context.
5. Saturn, Rahu and Ketu: These three planets indicate the separating influence in the
chart. They represent the foreign element that we should be looking for.
Based on the above, some principles which have been observed in different
combinations leading to inter religion marriages are:
1. Principle I: For males, Venus should be afflicted by Saturn, Rahu or Ketu. In charts of
females, Jupiter should come under separating influence of Saturn, Rahu or Ketu.
2. Principle II: Fifth or seventh house should be afflicted by Saturn. Saturn in fifth house
has a special influence and significance on inter religion marriages because from the
fifth house, Saturn’s 3rd drishti would be automatically be on the seventh house.
3. Principle III: Ninth house and its lord should be affected by Trik bhavas and their
lords. Since one is going “against” his/her religion, there should be some bad effect
seen on the ninth house. Additionally, ninth house should be afflicted by Rahu/Ketu.
4. Principle IV: Seventh house and its lord should be connected with a debilitated planet
or Rahu/Ketu.
5. Principle V: According to Jaimini System, the planet having lowest longitude in a birth
chart is called Dara-karak graha (planet representing wife). This planet should be
afflicted by Rahu/Ketu or Saturn.
Some I have seen include Rahu or Saturn (must be afflicted) in 7th, very strong Rahu in
the horoscope (anywhere), and even a very afflicted Mars in the 7th. Navamsa plays a
role but not as much as I would have liked. If Jupiter, Venus, or Moon aspect the 7th,
are in the 7th, or in the Lagna this can counteract this (but it depends on their relative
strength). This is my humble opinions on what I have seen in past horoscopes.
-WebYogi-
A person who has an intercaste marriage is probably open minded to accepting this
marriage. In other words at all levels he welcomes this.
So I would guess the 7th from Karakamsa would also play a vital role in this person
being comfortable with people other cultures/traditions. May be has a Rahu or Sat in
the 7th from Karakamsa.
Also 7th (incase of 1st marriage) from the Navamsa lagna (or 8th therefrom) would
indicate the life after marriage - may be has Rahu indicating differing in
perspectives/ideologies/traditions etc.,
Usually 7th in Rasi is what kind of spouse you are looking for (and thereby getting as
well). In my experience Rahu in the 7th in Rasi would give an introverted person (Ketu
in lagna) - an extroverted, social, dynamic kind of spouse.
