The late S.K. Kelkar of Pune had taken up around forty or fifty cases of marriages performed when Jupiter was in Simha and found nothing wrong. A conference of astrologers was held sometime in 1990 in Delhi and it was unanimously decided by astrologers that based on their experience there was nothing wrong in performing marriages during this period. Then in 2003 we published a book SIMHASTHA BRIHASPATI OR JUPITER IN LEO with seven women astrologers doing a research under my guidance by taking up as many 146 horoscopes of people married during Simhastha Brihaspati or Jupiter in Leo and the conclusions arrived at after an elaborate analysis was as given here from that book..
The positive cases
1. All the cases in which marriages were performed in Simhastha Jupiter are intimately known to the research team.
2. They have had the normal problems which can be explained through the normal known astrological rules. For instance, in case number six, there is Ketu in the fifth house aspected by Saturn, the fifth lord in the eighth aspecting its own house. There was a mishap in the birth of his first child after marriage but the other two children have been happy and have done well in life. In a transferrable job, he was transferred during his service career leaving his wife alone. It happens in all jobs with transfer liability. Otherwise, it is an ideal and happy married life,such as is the envy of many.
3. We have found no astrological logic for this prohibition or any explanation anywhere.
4. We have not found any astrological logic for marriages being prohibited in the first five navamshas of Simha. It seems to have come down as a tradition which has been followed without questioning or examination through any research.
5. If the navamshas of Jupiter in Mesha, Vrisha, Mithuna Karka and Simha are relevant it must be seen that when Jupiter is in other eleven rashis it cover all these four or at least two of these navamshas invariably.
a. Jupiter in Mesha, Vrisha, Makara, Dhanu, and Kanya will be in all these navamshas also.
b. Jupiter in Mithuna, Kumbha and Tula will cover Mesha and Vrisha navamshas.
c. Jupiter in Meena, Vrischika and Karka will cover Karka and Simha navamshas
d. Why is Jupiter in these navamsas when transitting other eleven rashi (other than Simha) not covered with similar prohibition is not clear.
6. It is also not at all clear why there should be a muhurta for the region between Godavari and Ganga and not the rest of the country. There was a time in Indian history when this region was supposed to be inhabited by the purest and best people of the world who had even claimed that Manu Samhita was applicable only to this region. Is this theory of marriages prohibited during the transit of Jupiter in Simha, particularly in the first five navamshas, an off shoot of that feeling of superiority? Or is it because during the transit of Jupiter in Simha there are two Kumbha melas, one in Nasik and the other Ujjain, people in this region did not want to get involved in the worldly activity like marriage and wanted to be free from it ? And therefore they sought and created an excuse?
In Bihar, in the sixties and seventies of the twentieth century, marriages were performed only during the transit of Sun in uttarayana course when Devatas(gods) are said to be awake. But rest of India did not care for this.
Negative cases
The description given under negative cases need not be elaborated here. Readers can cast the horoscopes and see themselves why what happened had to happen.
Summing up
The tabular summary given shows the impressive results of this research. The marriages from twelve to forty eight years is long enough to prove the validity of the research. Some of the marriages are very happy and ideal also.
Our research reveals that
a. Marriages done when Jupiter is in Simha does not do any damage to marriages.
b. When Jupiter is in the first five navamshas of Simha it does not do any damage to marriages.
c. When Jupiter is in the fifth, vargottama navamsha which is said to be the worst out of all these, it does not do any damage to marriages.
It must also be remembered that in the case of the Ramayana and the Mahabharata and other Puranas, the Bhandarkar Institute of Pune has done researches to remove interpolations from various versions. In the case of astrology such work has not been done. Diffferent publishers have published different versions of many of these books. For instance, one can see different versions of the Brihat Parashara Shastra and see some conflicting versions and contradictions in them.
It is not difficult to assume that in the Muhurtha books similar interpolations may have taken place. The prejudice attached to Simhastha Jupiter and marriages may be an interpolation. At any rate, through our astrological research we see no reason to accept it as an astrologically valid objection to marriages.
