The other grahas, counted from your Moon sign, with what the books say of each house:
| Graha | Sign, house and dates | |
|---|---|---|
| Saturn | in Aquarius — your 3rd houseall month · retrogradeFavourable | |
A rare easy Saturn phase: health and nerve improve, a job or money arrives, and property can be bought. What the book saysHealth, prowess and comfort increase; success in every undertaking along with money and a job; even a timid native defeats his enemies and is taken for a brave man; he also gains cattle; a suitable time to buy land and property. Gochar Vichar · GV ch.1 Gochar ka swaroop aur uska aadhaar, Saturn gochar phal, 3rd from the natal Moon (p.23, lines 767-771) | ||
| Jupiter | in Aries — your 5th houseall monthFavourable | |
A creative, lucky year: a new post, steady gains, celebrations at home, and speculation can pay. What the book saysComfort and delight increase; success in every undertaking; a post is obtained and business advances; some permanent gain; auspicious celebrations at home; the possibility of the birth of a son; work succeeds through reasoning and good sense; profit in speculation and games of chance; virtues increase. Gochar Vichar · GV ch.1 Gochar ka swaroop aur uska aadhaar, Jupiter gochar phal, 5th from the natal Moon (p.19, lines 612-617) | ||

Money is lost. What the book saysLoss of wealth. Phaladeepika · Ch.26 Gocharaphala, sl. 24 (Ojha p.637 / PDF 638) Another view: Yavanacharya, as Gochar Vichar gives it It suddenly increases wealth and affluence and brings gain from speculation; fortune and income also grow; but because of Rahu's ninth aspect on the Moon there is mental distress as well. Gochar Vichar · GV ch.1 Gochar ka swaroop aur uska aadhaar, Rahu gochar phal, 5th from the natal Moon (p.27, lines 938-941) | ||
| Ketu | in Libra — your 11th houseall monthGood house, blocked by vedha | |
A good reputation and money coming in. What the book saysGood name and gain of money. Phaladeepika · Ch.26 Gocharaphala, matantara chakra row 11 (Ojha p.639-640 / PDF 640-641) | ||
| Mars | in Leo — your 9th house1 August – 18 AugustUnfavourable | |

Work is obstructed and you are kept away from home; any money from this transit arrives only near its end. What the book saysCoarse food; injury or disease of the body; having to stay away from home for some reason; obstacles in employment; fear of thieves.
