Conjunction – Jupiter and Venus
It is important to understand how the combinations of grahas affect a chart. To exemplify the analysis, we look at combinations where both grahas are either in their own sign or in their sign of exaltation. We look at the conjunction of Jupiter and Venus here. There are only six such combinations if you ignore Rahu and Ketu. These are
- Sun and Mars – in Aries
- Moon and Venus – in Taurus
- Jupiter and Moon – in Cancer
- Saturn and Venus – in Libra
- Saturn and Mars – in Capricorn
- Jupiter and Venus – in Pisces
In Pisces, Venus is in its sign of exaltation and Jupiter is in its own sign. This gives both grahas primary strength. Charts with this combination can help exemplify the results of such a combination.
According to Saravali, a native with conjunction of Jupiter and Venus in their chart lives by education and arguments (debators), follows a highly virtuous path, and has accurate conception of things (knows right from wrong). The native is learned in many branches and loves to argue with fellow scholars.
Jupiter and Venus are the advisers in the planetary cabinet. Therefore, it makes sense that the attributes are around education, scholarly discussions, and the path of righteousness.
James Watson
James Watson is well known as part of the “Watson and Crick” duo who proposed DNA’s double helix structure. He received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1962, “for their discoveries concerning the molecular structure of nucleic acids and its significance for information transfer in living material”.
The fact that his life is always around education is obvious. His Wikipedia page lists him receiving degrees (including honorary) from 20+ Universities. The conjunction of Jupiter and Venus is in the fourth house with the first lord (Jupiter) and the ninth lord (Sun). As a scholar, he had disagreements with many colleagues and voiced many controversial opinions.
