Question #3530: regarding planets exaltation and their transit

[AskSatanOperator]

In the main website in JoS in the noted planetary section ,It says mercury gets exalted in aquarius ..But in vedic astrology mercury actually gets exalted in virgo in its ruling /home sign and not in aquarius .Now which is the truth ??..I am confused really ..and also when does saturn does harm to a person??when it is in the ascendant or when the saturn is in the moon sign of the person??because as per vedic astrology when saturn is in the 12th ,1st,2nd house of the moon sign is when saturn causes problems ...now which is the correct interpretation

Mercury is exalted in Aquarius. It makes no sense for it to just be exalted in Virgo when Virgo is a domicile of Mercury.

Try this yourself with the Squares on a Wednesday during the Hour of Mercury when the planet enters Virgo and Aquarius respectively. Although Aquarius is powerful, you will be knocked off your ass more with Virgo... most interpretations of Indian Astrology are Sidereal and don't even work with the Squares whatsoever, despite the fact the Sanskrit texts are emphatic on TROPICAL being used.

The relevancy of Indian Astrology is the Lunar mansions and constellations which do have to be calculated with Sidereal, and the idea that the planets meanings are more important than aspect alone and must be blended synergistically which HPS Maxine picked up on.

when does saturn cause more harm to a person,,when saturn is in the ascendant or when it is in the moon sign?HP maxine says when saturn is in the ascendant that is the worst time of one's life but vedic astrology says when saturn is in the moon sign ,that is the worst time of one's life ..It is even called seven and a half years in India ..which is more important here
