Love and Marriage
Love is the essence of existence. When it comes to marriage, it has to be love followed by marriage, or marriage followed by love- which alone can make a marital life worth living. Marriage astrology covers the aspect of love in detail and can make the marriage prediction, such as whether a marital union between any two can be a love marriage or an arranged one.
Also, not all love relationships fructify as marriages; some continue and end merely as love affairs, whereas some others run their full steam and blossom as marriages at an opportune time. Marriage astrology and marriage prediction can examine this aspect of the matter of the heart, too, and differentiate between love, continuing and ending only as a relationship between a couple and a romantic bond fructifying as a marriage.
Astrological Insight into Love and Marriage
According to marriage astrology, the critical astrological Houses and planets that matter in love and marriage are the 4th, 5th, 7th, 8th, and 11th in a birth chart, and the benefic planets Venus and Jupiter.
Of these, the 4th House is the Sukha Sthana, the House of the Heart, or the inner core of the individual.
5th is the Purva Punya Sthana, the House of the Mind that denotes mental makeup, thoughts, emotions, love, and romance.
7th is Kalathra Sthana, the House of the spouse, partner, marriage, and relationships
8th House is the Ayur Sthana, the House representing secrecy, mystery, modern thinking, and unconventional approach.
11th is the Labha Sthana, the House indicating gains, benefits, social circle, and friendship.
Also, the planet Venus is Kalathra Karaka, which signifies love, romance, sex, and marriage.
Planet Jupiter, the Dhana, and Putra Karaka represents unconditional love and can provide the wisdom to keep the love marriage intact.
As we can see, the 2 astrological Houses that matter the most for love and marriage are the 5th and the 7th. If the planetary lords of this 5th House of romance and 7th House of marriage have a positive relationship, then the chances of a beautiful love relationship blossoming into marriage are bright. If the lords of the other Houses are also favorably placed, that can add more flavor to the relationship.
The Principles of Only Love Relationship or Love Marriage
The marriage prediction on love relationships and marriage can be based broadly on the following principles regarding the placement of Houses and positioning of planets in the birth chart:
If there is a connection between the lords of the 5th and 7th Houses or if they aspect (that is, see) each other, it can indicate love fructifying as marriage.
If the soft and non-aggressive planets like the Moon, Mercury, or Venus are in the 5th House, it can generate tender emotions for the opposite gender during their planetary periods.
The placement of Venus, the planet of love, in the horoscope, especially of a male, can reveal the ‘love story’ of the person. The Moon is the planet representing the mind; if Venus and the Moon remain opposite to each other in a birth chart, then the native can hope for an aesthetics-loving poetic heart, which can bestow an excellent love relationship. Also, if these planets are together in the 4th or 5th House, it can signal an intense bond that can well lead to marriage.
On the other hand, if the malefic Saturn or Mars affects Venus, it could indicate that the natives have multiple relationships.
Moreover, suppose either of the shadow planets, Rahu and Ketu, is in the 5th House of Romance and thus forms the 5th-11th House axis with the other. In that case, the individuals might be unconventional in their approaches to matters of the heart and forge a beautiful love bond.
Likewise, if Rahu is present in the company of either the 5th or 7th House Lord, there are good chances for the person to fall in love.
If the planetary lord of any of the all-important Houses 5th or 7th is in retrograde, then love could be in the air for the native; if other planetary combinations are supporting it, a love marriage to the person of choice looks highly possible.
If the 5th or 7th House Lord has any sort of a relationship with the lord of the 8th House, that can create a Yoga conducive to a love affair, but such an affair might continue in secrecy and come out in the open only after a long time.
The auspicious Jupiter’s presence in the 1st, 7th, 9th, or 11th House could give a ‘thumbs up’ for a love affair to end up in a marital bond.
If Jupiter, which signifies the spouse for the females, is afflicted in a girl’s horoscope, then the approach of the person could be unconventional; when some combination of Mars, Saturn, and Rahu adds to it, it can be a signal for a departure from the tradition, when the person may choose the heart over the head and take the lover as the life-partner.
If planetary combinations like Mars-Venus, Venus-Saturn, Mars-Rahu, or Rahu-Venus is/are present in Houses 4, 5, 7, 8, or 12, it can denote a tendency to have affairs with multiple personalities.
The durability or longevity of a love relationship could depend on Jupiter’s association with the 1st, 5th, and 11th Houses and the planet Venus.
Thus, marriage astrology can reveal through marriage predictions about love relationships and marriage in a person’s life and which relationship can fructify into a marriage.
