Dharma Bhav — dharma, fortune, higher learning

Favourable Results

The native (the person whose chart it is) is noble and unassuming in his dealings. He is valorous, valiant in action (karmavir), a speaker of truth (satyavakta), and has beautiful hair. Forgetting the matters of the past, he gives more thought to the future. He honours the gods (devata) and the learned (vidvan). He upholds the religious customs handed down through his family lineage (kul parampara). Always foremost in benevolence toward others (paropkar), the native has an uncanny gift for kindling hope in the lives of the despairing; for this reason he can become a skilled doctor or psychologist. He nurtures and provides not only for the members of his own family but for other people as well. The native himself, or his father, or his grandfather, and so on, are often in government service, and are revered in society. The native's sons and the like are also worthy, and they rise and prosper.

Unfavourable Results

The native is wicked, cruel, conceited (dambhi), lacking in discernment (vivek), and devoid of good conduct. His mind (chitta) is restless, and he constantly goes back on what he says. In childhood he suffers from illnesses and the like. If the native has the habit of freeloading (muftkhori, living off others without earning), it is a mark of his downfall. He is frequently at odds with his brothers. Nor does he have any affection for his guru (his preceptor), his father, his maternal uncle, or his wife. Abandoning his own dharma (his religion), he turns apostate (vidharmi, one who takes up an alien faith).
