Papa and Shubha Kartari Yoga: Why you are limited or productive

And today I want to talk about two specific yogas that are really important. And you'll find this quite often in your chart work. It's called the Papa Katari and the Shubha Qatari yoga. And what it means is when planets or houses are scissored in by two other planets. So papa means sin and Katari means scissors. So it means it's like in between these scissors and they're cutting. And it can also be called that the planet or the house is hemmed in, hemmed in by either benefics or malefics. So the Papa Kachari is when it's hemmed in by malefics. So if you, let's take for example, if you have Venus and second from Venus counting from Venus, not your ascendant counting from Venus. If you have a malefic planet second from Venus and you have a malefic planet 12th from Venus, this would be apoplatari. So for example, you have Mars 2nd from Venus and Saturn 12th from Venus. This is Papa Kachari. What it means is the planet Venus cannot fully express itself and operate. It's the qualities are like stifled, hemmed in, they can't produce. Venus has problems by being hemmed in by malefic planets. So likewise, if you have a planet that is hemmed in by benefics, this is called the Shubha Kara yoga. So let's say we have Mars and you have Jupiter second and the second house counting from Mars, you have Jupiter and you have Venus in the 12th house from where Mars is located. This means that Mars prospers. It can benefit greatly from these benefics, giving the quality of Mars being able to express itself fully and completely, doing what Mars does best, action, energy, sports, entertainment, that type of thing. So this is where the Shubha Qatari opens up and gives opportunities by surrounding a planet. Now another aspect of these yogas is if you have a house either surrounded by benefics or malefics, if you have a house where on both sides it has malefic planets, sun or Saturn surrounding a house, then you're going to know that this house.

When it's the Papa Kachari, it's hemmed in, that house has problems. It can't do what it normally is meant to do. For example, if you have the sun in the fourth house and Mars in the sixth house, that means the fifth house is Papa Katari. So that means that maybe issues around children, this could create a problem with children or even having children. Likewise, let's say that you have Jupiter in the fourth house and Venus in the sixth house. This means the fifth house is surrounded by benefics. And this is the Shubha Kacharya yoga where it benefits greatly and there could be the aptitude to having children or having great children. And always remember to look at the ascendant because the Ascendant is who you are. This is vitally important. If you have the Papa Kachari malefic surrounding the ascendant in the 12th and the second, this is going to harm you in terms of you being able to express and be who you are. Likewise, if you have benefits surrounding the first house, this means the Ascendant. This means if you have like Jupiter in the 12th and Venus in the 2nd, this is going to enable you to fully be able to express who you are, have self confidence and be healthy and strong be because the first house is you. So with that I'd like to close. But just remember when you see planets, surrounding planets or houses, always remember to focus in on that because this will give you great information concerning chart reading. And so with that I'd like to close. If you want more information or a reading, you can go to my website which is Galactic Center.org. thank you.
