The conjunction Rahu + Jupiter
The combination Rahu + Jupiter gives material expansion and heightened practicality in the earthy signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn); in Sagittarius and Aquarius — charity; in Virgo and Gemini — the development of the reasoning mind.
When Rahu and Jupiter are linked through mutual aspects, this gives success in teaching, in writing and in philosophy. Bernard Shaw, for instance, had Rahu and Jupiter in Pisces — a philosopher and a writer. For Mick Jagger (the front man of the «Rolling Stones»), Rahu + Jupiter in Cancer in the 3rd house gives astonishing energy — he has been leaping about the stage for more than 50 years.
But there is a fundamental contradiction between Jupiter and Rahu, since Jupiter is law and Rahu is lawlessness. If Jupiter is weakened, this combination may create trouble with the law for the native.
The atma-karaka and yoga-karaka (the lord of the 9th and the 10th houses) Saturn stands in the 1st in Taurus. World fame in the field of mass art (Saturn in Taurus). The Lagnesha Venus stands in the Arudha Lagna in Leo — great popularity.
Ketu is in Capricorn. The dispositor of Ketu is in the Lagna. Businesslike and practical.
Rahu stands in Cancer in the 3rd with an exalted Jupiter (the lord of the HL — the Hora Lagna), Mercury (the lord of the 5th house) and the Sun (the dispositor of the Lagnesha Venus). This combination receives the 3rd aspect of the atma-karaka and yoga-karaka Saturn and the 4th aspect of Mars (the dispositor of the Moon). A powerful material expansion in the 3rd house of Kama. This gives great vitality, emotionality (Cancer), energy and wealth, since Jupiter, the lord of the 11th, and Mercury, the lord of the 2nd, are joined in the 3rd (money through art).
In D9 his atma-karaka Saturn stands in the practical sign of Virgo with Venus, Mars and the Sun, giving a stable material position and a great deal of real estate.
Jupiter and Rahu keep their link in D9 as well, but now through an aspect. Jupiter is in the 5th, Rahu in the 9th in Aquarius. Both aspect the Lagna in the navamsha. This raises the influence of Rahu upon the chart. His popularity soared in the period of Rahu (1964-1982). Rahu + Jupiter also often point to hoarding and to attempts to lecture others.
(from the materials of Vasily Tushkin’s «Surya-Siddhanta» school)
Rahu in the 6th house and Jupiter in a kendra bestow wealth. Rahu with Jupiter in the 8th house is a combination for diseases of the stomach. If nakshatras of Mars or Ketu are involved, surgery may take place. (Shri G. S. Agarwal)
Rahu + Jupiter
A weak Jupiter and a strong Rahu give a defectiveness in development. Development is bound up with a fair share of illusion and self-deception. The person studies destructive and false knowledge, and his world-view leads not to prosperity and growth but to destruction and degradation. Be careful and selective in your dealings with such people. People with this placement also have a scientific justification for their own flaws and shortcomings. Development goes very hard, painfully and defectively.
If Jupiter is stronger than Rahu, the person can reach enormous results in short stretches of time. The world-view changes with incredible speed. In the period of Jupiter these people reach staggering success and prosperity. Wealth comes to them easily and effortlessly. A legendary and rare combination.
