Sagittarius rising in the ascendant gives magnificent personality and such persons are best suited for training or advisory roles due to their pleasant presence. The body description gets modified, if Jupiter is weak in the nativity and, Jupiter and/ or the ascendant are closely associated by malefic planets. Sagittarians believe in hard work and God. They are humorous and generally maintain composure. They are clever, progressive, generous, organised, ambitious and successful, when Mars and Mercury are strong in the nativity. They are straightforward, vocal and extroverts.
Sagittarius is a fiery sign ruled by Jupiter. The sign rules hips, thighs, arterial system and nerves. An afflicted ascendant with weak Jupiter poses health problems to the native on account of anaemia, poor digestion, jaundice, high fever, cold, diabetes, etc. etc.
Besides Rahu and Ketu, the Moon is the only other functional malefic for the Sagittarians. As the Moon is a fast moving planet, the transit unfavorable events caused by the Moon are very short-lived, as the Moon separates from the conjunctions/aspects in a matter of just few hours. The stress areas for Sagittarians are the indications of the tenth house and the all-pervading impediments. The impediments are caused by the transit impact of the Moon and the transit and/ or natal weakness of weakness-prone Mercury. Weakness of Mercury is responsible for stress in the work area.
A strong Sun confers name, fame and evolution of the soul, while a strong Venus blesses the native with affluent financial gains and resources. Sagittarians are very cautious in their endeavors as the third house is ruled by Saturn. A strong Mars makes them dynamic and blesses with male children as the mooltrikona sign of Mars falls in the fifth house. Mars acts for them as a yogakaraka planet. A strong Moon confers inheritance. A lot of their energy and time is dissipated because of extravagance in the matter of uncalled for advisory assumed by them. Self control in this regard will help them in using the savings for their material and spiritual growth. The peculiarity of the Sagittarius ascendant is that they remain dissatisfied in life, as their achievements are not commensurate to their knowledge and competence. Their knowledge and competence is governed by Jupiter, while achievements are governed by the state of strength of Mercury. Sagittarius is otherwise an enviable sign to be born in, as irrespective of their status and level of knowledge, people may throng in for their advice. They generally maintain good physical health.
Depending upon the strength of the Sun, Jupiter and Mercury, the Sagittarians take up professions of religious preceptors, teachers, managers, legal and financial advisors. The strong Sun in its period indicates involvement and success in administrative and political fields. The powerful influence of other functional benefics does change the course of professional pursuits of Sagittarians.

house indicating income from foreign lands. The

due to its being in the state of old age. Saturn’s
complete conjunction has given the native an urge and initiative for educating people
working with him not only on worldly matters but on spiritual matters, as well. The fifth lord aspects the fifth house and Jupiter
and Saturn placed therein, very closely. This
is also a good combination and in fact, the most prominent one as it has made the native
not only intelligent, but also mentally alert. The
influence of Saturn in this, however, sometimes causes delay in the execution of the
ideas. Jupiter's dasa gave him opportunity
for improving his academic, professional and spiritual knowledge. It also gave rise in status. The period of debilitated Saturn kept the pace of
growth of acquiring further knowledge and status, low.
Rahu's close association with Mars never kept the native free from worries
of the health of his sons. The
astral-remedies, however, provided some relief. In spite of the weak position of the lord
of the tenth house, the close influence of the fifth lord, Mars, highly activated by the
association of Rahu and the powerful aspect of the lord of the ascendant to the ascendant,
the native enjoys good social and official status.

In the process, the planets Mars, Mercury and Venus, have become combust and lost some of their power.

The weakness of the planets delayed marriage, and caused lack of harmonious relationship thereafter. This delayed the promotions, denied male children and triggered inauspicious events due to transit conjunctions/aspects of the malefics during the sub-periods of the weak planets in particular. The native found the life as driving a tyreless vehicle on an unmetalled road. The only thing favorable was that the native was running the periods of functional benefics after the opening dasa of Rahu at birth. The native was a service officer but had to leave his career in between to start afresh with another organisation. The career became static. The job involved training and developing juniors, which native enjoyed keenly.
