In chapter 17, “Planetary Conjunctions” has a special mention in Brihat Samhita. According to the text, conjunctions are mainly of four types:-
- Bheda, here the conjunction occurs when the disc of one of the planets has been eclipsed by another planet.
- Ullekha, here the conjunction occurs when the disc of one planet rubs against the disc of another planet.
- Amsumardana, here the conjunction occurs when the light of planets are mixed with one another.
- Asavya, here the conjunction occurs when The planets are distinctly apart from each other.
Various results have been attributed relating to the above conjunctions. There will be a drought inland, friends and family will turn into enemies when the planets are in Bheda conjunction.
And when planets are in Ullekha conjunction, good food will be in abundance but there’s a possibility of war in the land wherein the princes will quarrel with their enemies.
Lastly, when planets are in A Sumardana conjunction, kings will involve in different wars, whereas mankind will suffer from weapons, hunger, diseases, etc. rulers will be in conflict with each other if the conjunction is that of the Asavya (Apasavya Planet )
According to the new Moon chart, as stated above, the conjunction of Feb 2021 has occurred in the sun sign Capricorn. The degrees of various planets are given below,
Sun at 29.07 degrees
Moon at 29.07 degrees
Mercury at 22.07 degrees
Venus at 18.38 degrees
Jupiter at 18.28 degrees
Saturn at 12.23 degrees
Planets seem to be at war within the 1-degree orb, in astrology. ASAVYA conjunction refers to those planets which are beyond the 1-degree orb. Also, the sun is known as Akranda planet, when it is in the mid-heaven that is the 10th house. Similarly, when it’s either in the east or west, it is known as the Paura and Yayin planets respectively.
Paura planets are mainly – Mercury, Jupiter, and Saturn.
The Moon is said to be known as Akranda Planet.
Rest other planets like Ketu, Mars, Rahu, and Venus fall under the category of Yayin planets.
In conjunction, sufferings will be caused to the objects represented by the planet that defeats. But there’s a chance that objects may prosper if planets manage to conquer.
If Paura planets defeat one another in conjunction, citizens and rulers will have to suffer. Also, if Yayin planets defeat one another in conjunction or an Akranda planet defeats each other, misery will be suffered by the object ps that have been represented by the defeated planet. This remains true in case of either a Paura or a Yayin planet defeat in conjunction or vice versa.
On Feb 12, 2021, Jupiter and Venus were within the 1-degree orb. In comparison with Venus, Jupiter is lesser in degree. Conjunction between the two happens only once a year making it a rare phenomenon considering too many planets are in conjunction.
