SIGNS AND THEIR LORDSHIP

In continuation to our last discussion of division of zodiac in to 12 signs and their lordships It could be observed that Sun and Moon are owning only one sign i.e., Leo and Cancer respectively and all other planets are owning 2 signs i.e:

                                    Positive                      Negative

Mars owns      -           Aries                and      Scorpio

Mercury owns -           Virgo                and      Gemini

Jupiter owns    -           Sagittarius       and      Pieces

Venus owns    -           Libra                and      Taurus

Saturn owns    -           Aquarius          and      Capricorn

For each planet, out of the two lordships, one is the positive sign and the other is the negative sign.  The positive lordship of the each planet is called the moolathrikona sign of that planet. Thus the following are the moolathrikona signs

Panet                          Moolathrikona sign  Moolatrikona Degree
