A marriage cannot take place if Sun, Moon or Jupiter are weak. Jupiter is the karak planet for life and fortune. Moon provides a person with wealth and peace of mind. In the same way, Sun gives energy. Therefore, the bride and groom have a happy married life if these planets are strong and auspicious at the time of marriage.

The strength of Jupiter and Moon is analyzed for the bride. On the other hand, the strength of Sun and Moon is studied for a groom. The strength of these three planets is considered to be very important. Body and wealth can be associated with the groom. Intelligence lets a person control them. Hence, strength of Jupiter is analyzed for a bride. It is believed that if a bride is intelligent, the household will have wealth as well as good health.

Analysis of Sun, Moon and Jupiter

At the time of marriage, the strength of Sun, Moon and Jupiter is analyzed in the kundalis of the bride and groom. This is done by calculating the position of these planets in the sign in which they are at the time of marriage from the birth sign. For example, in a groom’s kundali, if Sun is in the fourth, eighth or twelfth sign from the birth sign at the time of marriage, the period is said to be inauspicious. Marriage should be delayed or postponed in such a situation. Marriage can take place after worshipping lord Sun or making donations if Sun is in the first, second, fifth, seventh or ninth sign from the birth sign. Marriage is considered to be auspicious if Sun is in the third, sixth, tenth or eleventh sign from the birth sign.

In a bride’s kundali, if a transiting Jupiter is in the fourth, eighth or twelfth sign from the birth sign at the time of marriage, the period is said to be inauspicious. Marriage should be delayed or postponed in such a situation. Marriage can take place after worshipping Lord Jupiter or making donations if Jupiter is in first, third, sixth or tenth sign from the birth sign. Marriage is considered to be auspicious if Jupiter is in the second, fifth, seventh, ninth or eleventh sign from the birth sign.

During the analysis of Moon, it is considered to be inauspicious if a transiting Moon is in the fourth, eighth or twelfth sign from the birth sign. Moon’s position at all other places is considered to be auspicious for marriage. It is inauspicious if any of the three planets is in the fourth, eighth or twelfth place at the time of marriage. Marriage should be postponed or delayed. According to some astrologers, it is auspicious for grooms if Moon is in the twelfth place. In the same way, the eleventh place is considered to be auspicious for all the three planets.

Procedure of Tribal Worship

Planets are analyzed on the basis of the bride and groom’s signs. If all the three planets are auspicious, marriage can take place. If any of the three planets is inauspicious, donations should be made and the planet should be worshipped before going ahead with the marriage.
