Budha-Aditya Yoga (Sun-Mercury conjunction)

Whereas Sun emits energy, Mercury instils this energy to neurons for the development of brain cells. If Sun is freedom of self, sense of ego and generous traits, Mercury is consciousness, sanctity of existence, sober and wit, wise and wisdom. The conjunction of both Sun and Mercury constitutes a famous, proverbial, philanthropic, prowess and praiseworthy association what is called Budha-Aditya Yoga, an asset of the horoscope under which a native is born. It is synonymous to Bhadra Yoga, (one of Pancha-Mahapurusha yogas) that has been energised. To know if a native has this yoga in his/her kundali, astrology services can serve as a solution and can guide with the possible and expected outcomes from this combination of planets in the horoscope.

The legitimacy of this yoga is when it gets extra strength from the sign of own, exaltation or friends such as Aries, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, and Saggitarius. Then, it uplifts the life of the native with certainty. If the yoga germinates in sign of debilitation such as Libra or Pisces or it is ruined by the association or aspect of malefic planets such as Mars, Saturn, Rahu or Ketu, its natural strength is pitiful. It is a general rule of astrology that the Sun is exalted in Aries and debilitated in Libra. Similarly, Mercury is exalted in Virgo and debilitated in Pisces. Therefore, this is apprehensible how Sun-Mercury in Libra, Capricorn and Pisces will enamour the native what they do in Aries, Gemini, Leo, and Virgo.

Kalyan Verma in Saravali, Baidyanath in Jataka Parijat and Prithuyasas in Horasar give detailed description of this conjunction. All the learned ancient astrologers consider it as a pious, sensible, humorous, instinctive and benevolent yoga in almost all houses of horoscope. Although the houses 6th, 8th and 12th are the places of atrocities, yet if the conjunction Sun-Mercury is disposed in the sign of own or exaltation, the enigma of malefic places is reduced. For an illustration, see Saravali, Chapter 31

If this yoga appears in the ascendant, the native is erudite, talkative, stout body; bold, intelligent and long lived.

The best example of this dictum is the chart of Abrahm Lincoln where Sun-Mercury occupies ascendant and is free from all the malefic planets. He was a son of poor and illiterate father who could not serve any help to his son. Even then, Abrahm was inspired by inherent energy of harmonious disposition of strong ascendant, Sun-Mercury conjunction and aspect of divine Jupiter on ascendant lord Saturn. As a result his mind was equipped with active, sensible, enduring and humorous brain cells. He studied in the light of lamp posts on road. His dream was to reshape his country with hunkey-dory and bonhomie. One day he took oath as the president of most powerful country America.

If it is in 4th, (8th or 10th) house, the native is fond of poems (literature), famous, wealthy and has king like qualities. His body may be heavy with unsymmetrical nose.

The budha Aditya yoga in other houses makes the native virtuous. However, it is not believed good in 7th house because such a native is sexually weak and may get jail sentence for his unsocial mis-deeds (the native may be a thief, smuggler, fraudster, murderer or agonised dictator).

The good and bad aspects of this yoga disposited in 7th house and malified with the presence of malefic planets by the proximity of Mars and aspect of Saturn in the zodiac sign appear in the life of Adolf Hitler who started his carear as a house-painter. Mars-Saturn relation is pernicious and cause sudden calamity. Hitler was appointed Chancellor of Germany on 30th Jan. 1933. Earlier, he was a soldier of exorbitant valour and, therefore, was awarded the Iron Cross for bravery and distinguished military service. In 1923 he was arrested and confined to jail because he participated in the abortive Nationalist coup. After having consolidated power he embarked upon schemes to unite all the people of his country to revive Germany great, that lost her honour due to obnoxious shackles imposed on her by the Treaty of Versailles. Although he exceedingly loved his country, yet he could not get name and fame because of his agonised dictatorship and exodus of Yahudis.

The disposition of the Sun-Mercury as the Budha Aditya yoga in 10th house bestows the native name, fame and prosperity all over the word and he enjoys the life like a king provided the conjunction does not appear in debilitated sign.
