Hello friends! Today, we will discuss the lords of the zodiac signs. Each zodiac sign is ruled by a specific planet, known as its lord. This planet governs the characteristics and energies of that sign. Understanding these lords is crucial in astrology, and today I will explain them in a simple manner.
The Zodiac Signs and Their Lords
1. Aries (1): Mars
2. Taurus (2): Venus
3. Gemini (3): Mercury
4. Cancer (4): Moon
5. Leo (5): Sun
6. Virgo (6): Mercury
7. Libra (7): Venus
8. Scorpio (8): Mars
9. Sagittarius (9): Jupiter
10. Capricorn (10): Saturn
11. Aquarius (11): Saturn
12. Pisces (12): Jupiter
Simplifying the Concepts
Lagna and Bhavesh: In your birth chart, each house has a lord based on the zodiac sign occupying it. For example, if Aries is in the first house, Mars is the lord of that house (Lagnesh). Similarly, the lord of the second house is called Dwitesh, the third house is Tritiya Bhavesh, and so on.
Sun and Moon: Both the Sun and the Moon rule one sign each:
Sun: Leo
Moon: Cancer
Mars, Venus, Mercury, Jupiter, and Saturn: These planets rule two signs each:
Mars: Aries and Scorpio
Venus: Taurus and Libra
Mercury: Gemini and Virgo
Jupiter: Sagittarius and Pisces
Saturn: Capricorn and Aquarius
Memorizing the Lords
A simple way to remember the lords of the signs is by associating each planet with its characteristics:
Mars: Think of energy and aggression (Aries and Scorpio).
Venus: Think of love and beauty (Taurus and Libra).
Mercury: Think of communication and intellect (Gemini and Virgo).
Jupiter: Think of wisdom and expansion (Sagittarius and Pisces).
Saturn: Think of discipline and structure (Capricorn and Aquarius).
Importance of Lords in Houses
The planet ruling a sign exerts its energy in the house where that sign is located. For instance, if Mars rules your first house (Lagna), it brings Mars’ energy into your physical and personality traits. Even if the planet is not physically present in that house, its energy influences that area of your life.
