Education

"Education yields humility. Humility bestows ability. Ability or skill brings

money. Money helps you to do religious deeds and your religious deeds
bring lot of happiness to you."
Role of 2nd house in the success of education
2nd house plays an important role in the analysis of the success of education. It indicates getting a good education in
childhood. A well-placed lord of second house indicates good education gained at the primary level.
If lord of this house is aspected by the benefic planets, it shows that the native will have a good grasping power in his or her
early age. The placement of Mercury or Sun in 2nd house indicates an attractive voice and fluency in communication.
Conjunction of Mercury, Venus and the Sun in the 2nd house indicates gaining knowledge of Vedas and other scriptures. But,
this kind of knowledge is not suitable for materialistic gains and hence is best suited for the welfare of others.
The presence of malefic planets such as Mars, Rahu or Saturn in 2nd house indicates a harsh tongue, rude voice and lack of
interest in education.
Role of 4th house in the success of education
4th house is the house of sensitive and emotional assets. Hence, the education related to this house is related to emotional or
sensitive fields.
Presence of Satvik planets like Sun, moon and Jupiter indicates getting education related to a social, spiritual or philosophical
field. Presence of Rajsi planets like Mercury and Venus indicates education related to a political field. Pandit Jawahar Lal
Nehru had Venus and Mercury in the 4th house which made him a great scholar of politics.
Presence of Sun with Mercury indicates that the person may achieve great heights in mathematics or astrology.
Jupiter supports legal education. Hence if it is placed in an exalted state or is present in own house, it indicates getting a high
legal education.
Role of 5th house in the success of education
5th house is the most auspicious house in a Janma Kundali. This house indicates that the person will get education according
to his wisdom.
The career of a person is decided on the basis of the placement of planets in the 5th house. 5th house represents intelligence,
logic and decision making ability.
A strong 5th house gives a person an ability to take right decision at right time. The Sun and Rahu in the 5th house indicate
technical, scientific and medical education.
Role of 10th & 11th house in success in education and career
A planet present in the 10th house directly aspects the 4th house and hence it affects the emotional strength of the person.
Presence of Sun, Mars and Rahu in the 10th house indicate getting education related to political science and technology. The
Sun, Moon and Saturn in the 10th house indicate spiritual writings. While, the presence of Jupiter and Mercury indicate getting
education related to business and commerce. Moon and Venus in the 10th house indicate indulgence in an aesthetic
profession.
The planets in the 11th house also aspect the 5th house directly making a strong impact on the selection of the field of
education. The presence of malefic planets in the 11th house indicates hurdles in getting education. While, the presence of
benefic planets in the 11th house represents getting a good education in any field.

The fourth house from the ascendant is the house of school and college education.
The third house indicates one's inclination or desire to study any subject and
the 9th house is the house of higher, university and foreign education.
It is said that the Air signs (Gemini, Libra and Aquarius), Virgo and Scorpio give proper intuition, fertile imagination
and prompt action. The Air signs are called mental signs as they are signs giving a strong and powerful mind. Any
planet in the 3rd or 9th house has a powerful influence on the mind although they are signs of weakness and debility.

In a horoscope 4th house is the karaka house of education and 5th is that of intellect. As 2nd house is the
house of speech and goddess Saraswati so this also can be considered as house of education and erudition. For
making achievement in the field of higher education 9th house is important and 10th house is the Karaka house
of name and fame from education. There is very close relationship between education and intellect. Similarly
there is close relationship between 4th and 5th house.

Mercury offers eloquence and fluency in any language. Mercury in Angular house i.e., especially in the first,
seventh or 10th house gives superb oratorical powers and ability for public speaking. Mercury stands for
intelligence in all shades and degrees of development.

Mars gives quick wit, argumentative and authoritative analysis. He gives us the courage, energy, endurance, push and
go-ahead spirit. Mars in good aspect to Mercury or well-placed in a mental sign confers ready wit, fluent speech. It will
make one a good debater, apt at argument and retort. This is a good location for an efficient lawyer.

Sun and Mercury combination is called Budhaditya yoga and this yoga is a most valuable yoga for learning. The Sun
and Mercury with Venus in the 2nd or 9th house make one a good poet. This combination is found in Rabindranath
Tagore's horoscope.
Jupiter in the lagna makes the mind to study and acquire wisdom. Mercury is the karaka of learning while Jupiter is
the karaka of knowledge. Jupiter gives knowledge in law and medicine. Saturn shows higher intellect, power of
concentration and firmness of mind to study for longer periods. Maelific Saturn is detrimental to getting proper and
higher education and this aspect or position in the 4th or 9th houses, hampers education and puts obstacles in the path
of getting education. Rahu helps in getting higher education. But Mars also puts hindrances, obstacles in the path of
getting proper education, especially when he is posited in the 4th or 9th house. Mars in the 9th house can be
deleterious for education.
