malefics for various ascendants. Afflicted planets are those planets which have close conjunction/aspect of afflicting planets... When two planets or a planet and midpoint of a particular house have longitudinal difference between the conjunction/aspect formed less than five degreees, the conjunction/aspect is considered close. The impact of affliction is greater on weak planets than the planets which are well placed and strong. The above background, will help you in understanding the impact of planetary influences more precisely and in a much better way. IMPACT
The Sagittarius and Leo ascendants are better as apart from Rahu and Ketu the only functional malefic is the Moon. The transit conjunctions of the Moon with natal positions are more o ft en b ut s ho rt lived as they take just a few h'ours in separation.

IMPACT OF ASCENDING SIGNS INTRODUCTION Identifying impact of aSl'f'nding (rising) signs is one of the very important fields of horo« opu roadlllg. The characteristics of the lord of the rising sign fructify in full depending upon the strength of the lord of the rising lign, This is more so if a mooltrikona aiufI " ..,." in t i l l " ' " ""dunt, If the sion Capricorn rises m tho nSlI'I"I.II,t and :.,'!IIIIIIS utterly weak and afflicted,

we proceed further, let us understand a fe w preliminaries. Under the Systems' Approach, propounded by the author. the horoscope reading is only done with reference to the rising si'JlI i.e. the ascendant. The functional nature of the planets IS dc..uted on the basis of placement of their mooltrikona sruns. Cancer is considered as mooltrikona sign of the Moon. The functional malefics are those planets whose mool-trikona signs fall in the sixth, eighth or twelfth houses. All other planets are treated as functional benefics. Based on this, the Before
functional malefics for various ascendants are-as under:-
