Combust Planets and Remedy in Astrology



When a planet comes very close to the Sun the planets are considered combust. Sun illuminates where it is placed in the house. Sun combust the planet so that we can see our mistakes. Sun is purifying the planet, it is mild malefic, cruel, and purifying the things which we need for our soul growth. Every planet represents certain qualities when a planet is combust it loses its positive qualities. Due to the heat of the Sun the planets which are close to the Sun do not feel comfortable and it becomes angry or frustrated and lacks the power of what they represent as living karaka and the house they rule. 


Let's say if a person gets burned.. what happens to that person? The person feels pain, irritated, angry and physically uncomfortable. Same Thing happens with the planets when they come close to the sun. Every planet gives different results when they are combust, because they represent different areas of life.


Combustion as the result of certain life lessons and energies not being validated in our childhood, many times by the father (The Sun). In such cases, as a child the father or authority figure may have been too busy or just emotionally unavailable themselves to validate and honor the needs of the native relative to the combust planet. 


e.g. Combust Venus would show a child who, when wanting to show love, affection and appreciation, was rejected by a parent too busy, rigid or unconcerned. Their affection and love was not appreciated and a deep hypersensitivity surrounding love, affection and feeling appreciated was the result.


Anytime a planet falls within these degree with the Sun, the Sun rays will combust that planet. These are degrees of combustion:


Moon: 12 degrees

Mars: 17 degrees

Mercury: 14 degrees – 12 degrees when retrograde

Jupiter: 11 degrees

Venus: 10 degrees when direct, 8 degrees when retrograde

Saturn: 15 degrees


So what happened when a planet combust: 


Combust Moon (conjunction of Sun and Moon):  Moon represents emotions, mother, mind, peace and connection, psychology of the person. When the Moon gets combust the person has a dull and restless mind and a lot of anger because the moon evaporates in the heat of the Sun.  This leaves the person unable to feel peaceful and connected to the heart. The person has a hard time with mother and feels lack of nourishment from mother. Due to lack of love and connection from the mother the person could go into depression, agony and they feel lack of energy.


Combust Mars (conjunction of Sun and Mars): Mars represents strength to fight, anger within us, courage, willpower, principle and discipline. When Mars is combust it shows too much aggression. Combust Mars feels frustrated as it does not feel powerful, tough or courageous enough. The person becomes very sensitive and argumentative and has a “win at all costs'' attitude. Relationships with brothers also suffer. The person could not treat the brother in a proper way and the brother could have too much anger towards you.


Combust Mercury (conjunction of Sun and Mercury): Mercury represents communication, analytical, intellectual power, flexibility and rational thinking. When Mercury is combust there is a lot of confusion.  The person loses his analytical and intellectual power and is not able to make right decisions. The person becomes lazy in his decision making. There is a lot of miscommunication and  misunderstanding with people.

 

Combust Jupiter (conjunction of Sun and Jupiter): Jupiter represents money,  moral,  belief,  wisdom, luck, higher education, husband in women birth chart, children, creativity, spiritualism and religion. Jupiter is a very important planet because it controls many things in our life. When Jupiter is combust the person suffers in many areas of life. The Person could feel frustrated due to lack of hope, feeling of purposelessness and  unworthiness. The person became very  rigid in his belief and very dogmatic. The person could suffer relating with the children, marriage, higher education and in finance.


Combust Venus  (conjunction of Sun and Venus): Venus represents luxury, relationship, love, beauty, creativity, art, vehicle, mutual respect and  appreciation. Venus represents sociability and tends to be easy-going and affectionate. When Venus is combust the person suffers in relationship with other people. The person feels  disrespected and  lacks appreciation from others. Venus is the planet of love and compromise. The person doesn't want to compromise in a relationship and they don’t give love to others, but in return they want love but they don’t get it. Therefore they suffer and feel they are not loved and they feel insecure in the relationship. Sun with Venus gives more than one relationship in someone's life. Sun is the planet of power, authority and career, and Venus is the planet of relationship. These people have situations in their life whether they want to choose career or relationship. Depending on the sign which planet is strong they give a result. This is the reason for these people to separate or get away from their partner. If they understand they can avoid many problems in the relationship. Sun is the ultimate power and in the power of Sun, Venus (relationship) may suffer. These people need to learn to give importance to others.


Combust Saturn (conjunction of Sun and Saturn): Saturn represents career, structure, organisation, mass people, labour work, hard work and responsibility. Saturn is the main planet for career. When Saturn is combust  the Person has a lot of career problems due to their attitude. Because they are lazy they feel overburdened towards responsibilities. They have problems with their boss in office because of their lazy attitude. And they feel that “I have done enough”. Resentments build up with the time about even the basic duties in personal or professional situations. The person develops bitterness and a feeling of being overworked. Due to this unwillingness to simply perform their duties, situations they often mess up their career.


Rahu and Ketu do not combust but they engulf the Sun when they are placed with the Sun. In this case Sun loses his all good qualities.


When the Sun is with Rahu: A person may appear very confident, but there is usually stress and fear beneath the surface revolving around a lack of confidence. Because the Sun  is our ego and confidence  and Rahu is fear and anxiety. These people are very egoistic and  they think they  are very important personalities and show too much importance to others. They might have a bad relationship with their father.  Overtime, a person becomes very realistic about their own importance and greater understanding of themselves beyond the level of personality.  


When the Sun is with Ketu: The person wants to be freed from the ego and a need to feel confident and powerful. Ketu is a very critical planet so the person watches every ego game and false expression of self. The person may have a distant relationship with father and feel isolated from father. These people become  very spiritual in nature with time. The quality of surrendering their smaller self to the highest self is being developed with time.
