The role of benefic and malefic planets is crucial in your zodiac sign. Because there are two types of malefic and benefic planets, it can be a complex idea to grasp. The two types are:
Some planets are considered malefic (harmful), while others are deemed benefic (beneficial). Jupiter, for example, is a natural benefic, whereas Saturn is a natural malefic. The planet Jupiter can become malefic, and Saturn can become benefic for some Lagnas; therefore, when the planets become benefic or malefic according to the Lagna, it is known as functional benefics and malefics.
Finding the functional benefic and malefic planet requires a variety of techniques. Finding the relationship between the planets is one such technique. Apart from benefics and malefics, there is also neutral.
The concept of functional benefic and malefic planets is a unique Vedic astrology parameter. Western astrologers are now adopting these principles as well. Not only that, but Vedic astrology provides numerous strategies for reliable horoscope reading.
