Saturn: The Karma Karaka
Saturn is known as the Karma Karaka. It represents your karma, which is much more than just your work or career. Karma is a much bigger concept that denotes what you are meant to give and receive in this life.
Personality When Saturn Is Your Atmakaraka
When Saturn becomes your Atmakaraka, it has a significant impact on your personality. You tend to be straightforward in your communication and become more serious about your work. However, if Saturn is afflicted, it can lead to procrastination and make you feel lethargic.
Effect on Health
If Saturn influences your Lagna or the second house, it can cause dry skin and an imbalance in the heat element of your body. You may experience a lack of bodily warmth and become more prone to falling sick, particularly with cold and cough-related issues.
A Strong Sense of Justice
When Saturn is well placed, it gives you a strong sense of justice and ethics. You tend to stand up for people who are less powerful and fight for the rights of those who are considered lower in society.
Relationship With Father and Mother
Now, when it comes to relationships, the native's relationship with their father is generally not very good. If you know the story of Shani Dev, you might remember that when he was born, he cast an eclipse on his own father, Surya Dev. His father had a difficult time accepting him as his son, and there were constant conflicts between them. Shani Dev sought recognition and respect for his mother, which is why he continued to fight.
Similarly, natives with Saturn as their Atmakaraka are generally seen to be very close to their mothers and often take a stand for them. There is also a higher possibility of becoming distant from the father.
Remedies for Saturn Atmakaraka Natives
Life may bring several conflicts and challenges for these natives. In such cases, the following practices can help:
- Care for your knees and back: Massage the affected areas with sesame oil, especially on Saturdays. Reciting the Shri Shani Dev Aarti on Saturdays is also considered auspicious.
- Build discipline: Discipline is extremely important for these natives. Try to wake up early and regularly offer water to Surya Dev.
- Beat procrastination: To overcome procrastination, exercising is highly recommended.
