world at large. th house is considered to !e the ocean of "armas. It is
from th house that the winds laden with water of the "armas rise and
pour it on 2nd house. #or good results of 2nd house the $th house should

the poison of $th house shall !e transferred to 'th house through the
agenc% of the aspect of the planets in 2nd house. If houses 2 and $ are
!oth vacant there is no (uestion of compounding the trou!les of 'th house.
