Marana karaka position of planets

Marana karaka position of planets

Marana-karaka as the name suggest is the position of a planet where a planet dies. Here is the detailed analysis of Marana karaka position of planets in Vedic astrology

Basically Marana-Karaka means that the planet is not comfortable in that house due to other planetary energies. But before drawing a conclusion, we must check the dignity of planet even if it is in maranakaraka position. We also need to check if the planet is in exalted, own, moolatrikona, enemy sign and the position of the dispositor/ lord of the house. If the person is not undergoing the mahadasha of maranakaraka planet then there is nothing much to worry.

Why each planet has maranakaraka position?

Now let’s study each planet, their maranakaraka position and the reason of maranakaraka position

Sun

Sun is in maranakaraka position in twelfth house. 12th house is the house of loss, so sun in 12th house shows loss of ego, confidence and distant relationship with father.

Moon

Moon is in maranakaraka position in eighth house. As moon wants peace and happiness and eighth house has chaotic energies, thus the concept. At the same time, Moon being a soft planet finds it difficult to adjust with sudden issues.

Mercury

Mercury is in maranakaraka position in fourth and seventh house. The planet Mercury is a prince who likes to hop from one place to another, have fun, mercury does not like sitting at home , so mercury is dead in 4th house. At the same time, mercury in seventh house does not want to deal with relationship as it is a eunach planet.
