The 5th House ….Most favorable House..... ….By Pt Dr Hitesh A. Modha



Children - Education- Love- Self development, -Intellect,
A Dilemma Delineated
This article is not analytic work but, it is one kind of aptitude taste or pathologically scans from one’s horoscope.
Often, on finding a strong 5th house, one faces the dilemma of whether to predict good education or happiness deriving from children or both. We felt a need to hunt for a methodology that could give pointed indications in these areas and immediate clarity from a horoscope. it is my research work.  
The conservative view goes that simply on the basis of the prime parameters - the strength of the 5th and the 9th house, their lords and Jupiter, one should not rush to conclusions to affirm all  quality and high-quality or all moderate quality for either children or education. The thoughts that come on initial pondering can get you to the right prediction with so many techniques and dashas now available from discoveries through research. But what is it that differentiates a good education and suffering on account of children from a bad education but bliss from children, we need to establish statistically and scientifically, so that it leads to a methodology that is pinpointed.

The parameters which could best answer this question needed to be explored and tested and hence this research project came into being. As indicated by Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, the 5th house governs amulets, scared spells, learning, knowledge, sons, royalty (or authority), fall of position, etc. For our research, the 5th house interpretations with respect to children and education were broadly classified as:
1) Good education and good children
2) Good education and no happiness from children
3) Good children but poor or average education
4) Poor education and unhappiness from children
5) Self career with personal  


Objective:

To empirically test the hypotheses that the listed parameters in a horoscope impact on children and education and to recommend the weightage that should be given to each parameter; with special emphasis on the role of the Saptamsha (D7-children) and the Chaturvimshamsha (D24-education).

Parameters:
1) The 5th house and the 5th lord from the lagna, Moon, and Jupiter as the primary source of influence.

2) Condition of Jupiter as the significator both for children and knowledge, in the natal chart and the divisional charts.

3) The condition of the planet that is putrakaraka (5th karaka) and the fifth house from it, both for children and education.

4) Analysis of the saptamsha for children and the chaturvimshamsha for education.

5) Analysis of the 9th house and the 9th lord both from the lagna and the Moon.

6) Analysis of the 7th house and the 7th lord both from the lagna and the Moon.
7) At least two dashas between the ages of 15 and 25 for education and between 25 and 35 for children: vimshottari and chara dashas.
8) Role of transit.
9) Role of Gulika.
10 Role of Mercury in education.( Always mercury is major role for eduction)

Apart form these parameters, we are analyzing related variable and supplementary factors like the role of the Moon in education, applicability of conditional dashas, role of Beej Sphuta and Kshetra Sphuta, etc. These factors are being analyzed by researchers to develop a full fledged thesis at the individual level, in addition to the group project.

Overview:

Our biological instincts combine with societal beliefs on the continuity of human existence. The urge to procreate is at once a human weakness and a profound human strength. Even an atheist might pray when he is unable to parent a child.

A child promises bliss before his arrival into the parent's fold and becomes the most precious possession soon after he is born. Man confronts balarishta (childhood illness and even death) to save and protect the child. In the modern context, the Balarishta-Yog threat could come from disease, infection or abnormalities affecting the child. Earlier, Ayurved and Vedic Joyitsh are co-syllabus.  Seven out of ten children tended not to survive, and therefore Balarishta-Yog  remained critical to astrological analysis of children.

Today, as a child grows, the concerns continue even though with modern medicine they may be less directed to the survival of the child. Education of the child has today become a critical concern of parents and astrological counseling is increasingly sought for relatively minor matters like the specialization streams to be opted for in schools and colleges.

Parents are also concerned about the behavior of children and their attitude towards elders. The aspirations of a parent for the child tend to be limitless. The problem of hyperactive children with small attention spans becoming indecisive due to peer pressure in choosing specialized streams, are increasingly common, often compelling parents to seek psychiatric help. Some even have to face the gravest misery of all: loss of a child. Clearly, any parent can accept immense suffering to self but the pain multiplies if it is the child who suffers.

Guidance on education is fast becoming crucial not only for children but for all those struggling for growth in career. There are mid career courses and training's which are fast getting more and more popular. So both Children and Education draw immediate attention.
