Four Ways to Judge the Strength of a Planet:

Strength by House:

1. A planet gives first and foremost the results of the strength of the house occupied by the planet, and secondly by the owner of the house.

2. When determining the house strengths, the angles or angular houses are first in strength (1st, 4th, 7th, and 10th), followed by the succedent houses (2nd, 5th, 8th, and 11th), and lastly the cadent houses (3rd, 6th, 9th, and 12th).

3. The owners of  houses 6, 8, or 12 (and these are counted from ANY particular house to be judged) becomes weak, evil, or malefic in effects.

Strength by Sign:

1. A planet is strong when it is in its own or exalted sign. A planet is weak when it is afflicted, and/or in its detriment or fall (debilitated) sign.

2. The nature of the sign  - for example - cardinal, fixed, or moveable, fire, earth, air or water sign, fruitful or barren sign, human or bestial sign, mute or voice sign, masculine or feminine sign, on the cusp of the planet posited there, influences the affairs of the house and the planet.

Strength by Aspect:

1. A planet on conjunction or associated with or aspected by a malefic (for example - the owners of the 6th, 8th, or 12th), becomes weak and afflicted.

2. An aspecting planet modifies the results of the house matters according to its natural benefic or malefic, friendly or inimical state.

Nakshatra System:

1. A planet becomes strong if its star lord is strong by house, sign, and aspect; and it will be in a position to give the results indicated by its star lord to the desired extent.

2. A planet becomes weak if its star lord is weak by house, sign, and aspect, and it will not be in a position to give the results indicated by its star lord to the desired extent.
