The concept of Arudha Lagna is extremely important while interpreting a horoscope. It is considered as the seat of Maya! The houses from the ascendant or lagna shows the karma that we have to go through in life but the houses from the Arudha Lagna can show how we react to them.

1.should we consider graha dristhi or rashi dristhi for gains and expenses
2.what if AK(Me) is placed in 12th from AL
What if moon occupied AL house
if AL and A7 present in 1 – 7 axis . Is it good for marriage ?
It seems that for there to be marital success between a man and a woman, the A7 and AL of both must meet in kendras or kona. I have A7 in the 8th house of my chart and AL in the 12th house and in my ex-wife’s chart the A7 and AL are in the 4th house. I think these configurations contributed to our marriage not being successful. 🤔
