Such retrograde Jupiter can render various types of benefits to the native, related to or through his/her children, marriage (female), husband, lifespan and/or mother. Considering children, the native may not witness any complications during the birth processes of his children. He may have children who may be physically, intellectually, emotionally, creatively and/or spiritually better or much better than average. Such children may achieve a lot in many spheres of their lives, and they may bring good name and many other good results to the native. Considering marriage (female), she may get married to a man who may be rich, a celebrity, an officer in government, a powerful politician, a successful businessman, and/or a citizen of a foreign country. The native may witness several benefits due to or through her husband and/or his family members. The native may settle in a foreign country on the basis of her marriage, if her overall horoscope and running times are supportive.

Mars is placed in the tenth house in Virgo with debilitated Venus and benefic exalted Rahu, exalted Ketu is placed in the fourth house in Pisces, Moon is placed in the first house in Sagittarius, and benefic retrograde Mercury is placed in the twelfth house in Scorpio.

Benefic Mercury is placed in the seventh house in Gemini, malefic Venus is placed in the eighth house in Cancer with Sun, and Mars is placed in the fourth house in Pisces. In this case, the native may not deliver her first alive child till her age of 35 or 40. She may witness 1 or 2 miscarriages, before she may give birth to an alive child.
If malefic Rahu is placed in the fourth house in Pisces with Mars, and Ketu is placed in the tenth house in Virgo, the equation may become worse. Angarak Yoga is formed in the fourth house.
