Pitra Dosha In One’s Kundli: When and How? 

Astrology and Puranas have also given different opinions regarding Pitra Dosha, but this defect/Dosha is primarily related to our ancestors and family members. Until this defect is resolved, its harsh effects continue to haunt us. This Dosha passes from one generation to the other, that is, if the father’s horoscope has Pitra Dosh and he has not pacified it, then this Dosha can also be seen in the horoscope/Kundli of the child.

When an ancestor of the family is not cremated properly after his/her death or if any of his/her wishes are left unfulfilled in the lifetime, it is believed that his/her soul wanders in between the house and the next generation. The unquenchable spirit of the dead ancestors pressurize the family members to fulfill their wishes by inviting troubles in their life and this suffering is seen in the horoscope of the native in the form of “Pitra Dosha”.

Which People are Affected by Pitra Dosha? 

If the effects of Rahu in the Kundli are harsh and the following situations continue to exist during the presence of Rahu, then Pitra Dosha comes into being. 

Since we are talking about the planet Rahu here, you should know when Rahu is transiting this year, as this information will turn out to be vital for you. Go ahead read our article on Rahu Transit 2020 and its aftermath. 

• If Rahu is situated in the central or trine houses of the Kundli. 
• If Rahu is associated with the Sun or Moon. 
• If Rahu is associated with Saturn or Jupiter. 
• If Rahu is posited in the second or eighth house.  

The ninth house of the birth chart is known as the house of religion. It is also the house which tells about one’s father. If somehow the ninth house is under the influence of malefic planets, then it indicates that some wishes of the ancestors were left incomplete. 

Sun, Mars and Saturn are naturally malefic planets, but in astrology, Rahu and Ketu provide their ill effects to all the ascendant and other zodiac signs. If the ninth house, the lord of the ninth house, the ninth house from the Moon sign and the ninth house’s owner is afflicted by Rahu or Ketu, then Pitra Dosha gets formed.
