Out of the nine planets we generally consider for delineation of charts Jupiter is considered the most benefic planet. Why Jupiter is given such a status of all the planets? There is one reasonable argument that Jupiter contributes the highest benefic points (56) in Ashtakavarga system of judging the planetary strength in a nativity. Further, it is also stated that the aspect of Jupiter is most benefic than that of its occupation in a house/rashi. It is a well known fact that Jupiter has two special aspects 5^th and 9^th in addition to the general 7^th aspect from its location. These special aspects are considered very auspicious.

[There is a small story to depict the auspiciousness of Jupiter’s aspect. Jupiter (the guru of gods) wanted to get his daughter married and in all fairness approached Venus (the guru of demons), despite his professional rivalry with Venus, to get his daughter’s chart examined. Venus after examining the chart foretold that his (Jupiter’s) daughter will die of snake bite at the time of her nuptials. This as a father Jupiter could not digest and wished that this prediction of Venus should go wrong. Jupiter performed the marriage of his daughter and the nuptials were arranged. Jupiter was anxious and praying that his daughter should be safe and long lived. Though it is unethical he made a small hole to the door of the room where the nuptials were arranged and peeped into the room at the time of nuptials. He witnessed a snake entering into the room of nuptials spent there some time and went without biting his daughter. Jupiter was so happy that his daughter is safe and went to inform Venus’ failed prediction. Then, Venus said that the failure in prediction was due to the aspect of Jupiter. Such is the benevolence of the Jupiter’s aspect.]

Now coming back to our BSP-10 Jupiter 9^th house rule. Jupiter will implement itself in the 9^th house from the place it is located in a chart and/or the house where it is located in the 40^th year of a native’s life.

Let us examine the charts given here under by applying the above rule.

DOB: 23-08-1964 TOB: 5.50AM POB: CHINAGANJAM, INDIA his Jupiter in the 10th house. He got promotion in the 40th year on 1-April-2004. Jupiter implements 10th house in the 40^th year the place it is located. Further the 9th aspect of Jupiter would be in the 6th house of job, so an event in job area will happen, the 6th lord of job is placed in the 7H (10^th from Jupiter) hence promotion.
DOB: 09-SEP-1963 TOB: 4.00 AM POB: MACHILIPATNAM, INDIA. In this chart Jupiter is located in Pieces the 9th house. This person in the 40^th year (between 09-09-2002 to 09-09-2003) went in to depression due to the problems in profession. His blood pressure shot up to 160/110. He met with an accident and was bed ridden for some days. If we see 9^th from Jupiter, then it is the 5H (which is 12^th from 6th of health). The 5H is the house of mind and depression starts with the mind, its lord is Mars in the 12^th from it in the 4H of heart (blood) and Mars is blood in the 6th from Moon (flow of blood) hence he could have had blood pressure problems which starts with non regulation from the heart (4H)

So during the entire 40^th year he was having professional disturbance. He has Jupiter in 10^th house Leo. From this house Jupiter aspects 6th house Aries where Saturn and Moon are present.
