In this article we will try to understand that why Rahu (malefic planet) give its best results in the 6th house (upachaya Sthan).
Please Note, this planetary house placement has to be taken as per the Cusp or KP chart, not lagan chart, now why am I using cusp chart, to understand that you must read my article on cusp chart.
Here is the link:CUSP or KP CHART(Placidus System)
Anyways come back to the topic:
See, 6th house (upachaya Sthan) represents enemies, diseases and various forms of obstructions in our life.
Therefore, to deal efficiently with all these enemies, obstacles etc., we need an expert like Rahu (malefic planet) who knows the techniques of “Saam, Daam, Dand & Bhed”
Sutra of “Saam, Daam, Dand & Bhed” was given by Acharya Chanakya:
Now what are these 4 ways:
Kindly note that, there are four ways to get rid of any obstacle in life or you can say that, there are four ways to fulfill any objective in life, as when obstructions are eliminated then obviously objectives are bound to get fulfilled.
Saam basically means: that if you have any problem then use your logic, intelligence, knowledge, wisdom, reasoning and experience to get rid of that issue
BUT if none of your logic, intelligence, knowledge etc are working then try to eliminate the problem through the power of money.
You all know, that money is not god but it is also not less than a god. So the proper or efficient use of money comes under the scope of daam.
Still many a times money also fails to achieve an objective and there you need to use FORCE which is DAND means “to punish”
Lastly if even after the use of the force or punishment, you are not able to defeat your enemy or obstacle then it means that there is definitely some secret which you are not aware off.
Hence you need to then find out or do some research as in what exactly is that secret which is giving strength to your enemy or obstacle or problem.
Searching for that secret, loop hole, weakness etc is basically termed as bhed
In short, person having his/her Rahu (malefic planet) in the 6th house (upachaya Sthan) can be an expert in all these 4 techniques and therefore you cannot win over these people. If other planets of the chart also support then people having Rahu in 6th house will always find a way to crush any obstacle in life and move ahead. Of course holistic analysis of chart is essential before giving any prediction.
Here you all must be thinking, that why Nikhil is not talking anything about the sign which Rahu should occupy, so friends if Rahu happens to occupy its exaltation or friendly signs then obviously that would be an added advantage BUT you all must keep 1 point very clearly in your mind, i.e. BHAVA PLACEMENT of a PLANET HOLDS MUCH more importance than any other factor in Astrology and that is why I am discussing house placement here instead of discussing Rahu’s effect in 12 different signs.
I also wish to mention that Malefic like Rahu generally give good results in the Upachaya Sthan i.e. 3rd, 6th, 10th and 11th houses. You can read more about Rahu from here: Rahu and Ketu-Real Meaning & Rahu & Ketu/Lunar Nodes
Here, for your information, people like Queen Elizabeth (one of the longest serving monarch in the world), King of Thailand Mr Bhumibol (again one of the longest serving monarch in the world), King Abbas I of Persia, Emperor Alexander I of Russia, Great Pandavas of Mahabharata like Arjun and Bheema and many other great people have their Rahu placed in the 6th house as per the cusp chart.Also refer this article:Features of GREAT emperor Birth chart or horoscope
Lastly the placement of Rahu in the 6th house is more desirable than its aspect i.e. placement is always more powerful than aspect.
Do I really need to say anything more about the power of Rahu in 6th house?
Thanks for reading this article.
