in the house. Sun combust the planet so that we can see our mistake. Sun is purifying planet, it is mild
malefic, cruel, and purifying the things which we needed for our soul growth. Every planet represent
certain qualities when a planet is combust it loses its positive qualities. Due to heat of Sun the planets

power of what they represents as living karaka and the house they rule.

Let us say if a person get burned. What happens to that person? The person feel pain, irritated,
angry and physically uncomfortable. Same Thing happens with the planets when they come
close to sun. Every planet give different result when they are combust, because they represent
different areas of life.
Combustion as the result of certain life lessons and energies not being validated in our childhood,
many times by the father (The Sun). In such cases, as a child the father or authority figure may have
been too busy or just emotionally unavailable themselves to validate and honour the needs of the
native relative to the combust planet.
e.g. Combust Venus would show a child who, when wanting to show love, affection and appreciation,
was rejected by a parent too busy, rigid or unconcerned. Their affection and love was not appreciated
and a deep hypersensitivity surrounding love, affection and feeling appreciated was the result.
Anytime a planet it falls within that degree with sun, the Sun rays will be combust the planet. These
degrees of combustion are:
Moon: 12 degrees
Mars: 17 degrees
Mercury: 14 degrees 12 degrees when retrograde
Jupiter: 11 degrees
Venus: 10 degrees when direct, 8 degrees when retrograde
Saturn: 15 degrees

Moon is said to be combust when it comes within 12 degrees on either side of the Sun.

Mercury is said to be combust when it comes within 14 degrees on either side of the Sun provided
Mercury is in forward Motion. When Mercury is in Retrograde motion, the degree of closeness for
combustion of Mercury becomes 12 degrees.
Venus is said to be combust when it comes within 10 degrees on either side of the Sun, provided
Venus is in forward motion. When Venus is in Retrograde motion, the degree of closeness for
combustion of Venus becomes 8 degrees.
Mars is said to be combust when it comes within 17 degrees on either side of the Sun.
Jupiter is said to be combust when it comes within 11 degrees on either side of the Sun.
Saturn is said to be combust when it comes within 15 degrees on either side of the Sun.
Rahu and Ketu never become combust due to their closeness to Sun as they are shadow planets.
When a planet becomes combust, it becomes weak by combustion and thus it becomes unable to
protect its significances fully and produce proper results unlike a planet which is not combust and is
capable of producing proper results. So the study of combust planets becomes very important in order
to make predictions about the significances ruled by these planets in different horoscopes. Combust
planets need to be strengthened in order to get proper results for the significances ruled by them. But
strengthening the combust planets is not a simple task and takes expertise. The job is comparatively
easy when the combust planet in a horoscope is working positively. In case of positive combust
planets in a horoscope, the best and the easiest remedy to strengthen these planets is to wear
gemstones for the combust planets. Wearing gemstones for the positive combust planets provides
them extra strength and they become capable of protecting their significances and producing proper
results.
But in case, a combust planet in a horoscope is working negative in that horoscope, it
becomes comparatively difficult to strengthen that planet. In case of negative combust planets,
gemstones cannot be prescribed for these planets, as gemstones should not be worn for negative
planets, even if such negative planets are combust. Strengthening negative combust planets with the
help of gemstones can cause very bad results and thus use of gemstones should be avoided in case
of negative combust planets and gemstones should only be used for strengthening positive combust
planets. In case of negative combust planets, the strength is provided with the help of Mantras and
Poojas for these combust planets and not by using gemstones. For example if Mercury is negative
and combust in a horoscope, the best way to strengthen Mercury for that horoscope, so that it may
produce proper results regarding its significances is to chant the Beej Mantra of Mercury for as many

times a day as is prescribed by your astrologer and for as long a duration of time as is prescribed by
your astrologer.
However this process is slow and may not show results as fast as the application of gemstones for the
positive combust planets. And apart from that this process requires dedicated time and discipline on
daily basis to chant the Mantras for the combust planet or planets. That is why it is considered
comparatively difficult as compared to the application of gemstones. Another way of strengthening the
combust planets with the help of Mantras is getting a Pooja performed for the combust planet. In this
process a certain count of Mantras for the combust planet, which is usually 125,000 and is chanted by
a set of 2 to 5 Pandits in a time period ranging from 3 days to 8 days, on behalf of the horoscope
holder and the fruit of this Jaap of Mantras is transferred to the horoscope holder by means of
Sankalpas done under the guidance of Vedic System of Karma Vidhaan and Vedic Astrology. So the
Mantras are chanted by the Pandits and the fruit is given to the horoscope holder, and all this process
works out at a much faster pace than chanting the Mantras by yourself which may require years to
accomplish a count of 125,000 Mantras for a combust planet. The best suggested remedial
combination for negative combust planets is to get a Pooja performed first and then start chanting the
Mantra for that planet on daily basis if you are able to do it.
