In horoscopes with Taurus ascendant, Venus rules the first house, along with the sixth house. Hence the native may witness good results related to health and lifespan, when such Venus is influenced by benefic planets and/or an overall benefic horoscope. Taking an example, suppose debilitated Venus is placed in the fifth house of a horoscope in Virgo with benefic exalted Mercury. Benefic Mercury may transfer a lot of positive energy to Venus and these two planets may form Neechbhang Rajyoga in the fifth house. Suppose benefic Sun is placed in the fourth house in Leo, benefic exalted Rahu is placed in the first house in Taurus, exalted Ketu is placed in the seventh house in Scorpio, Jupiter is placed in the sixth house in Libra and benefic Saturn is placed in the third house in Cancer. In this case, the native may enjoy good health and he may live beyond the age of 70 or 75, depending on the overall horoscope and running times.
If benefic exalted Moon is placed in the first house in Taurus with Rahu, and Mars is placed in the seventh house in Scorpio with Ketu, the equation may become better. In this case, the native may live beyond the age of 80 or 90, and he may lead a healthy life. If the finer factors and running times are supportive in a specific way, the native may live beyond the age of 100. The native may also witness good or very good results from his profession. He may be a doctor, scientist, engineer, researcher, software developer or some other likewise professional and he may come across success, money and recognition through his profession.

The placement of debilitated Venus in the sixth house is a difficult one. Venus is weak due to debilitation and the sixth house features a hostile environment. Apart from that, Mercury is generally malefic in horoscopes with Aries ascendant. It means that such debilitated Venus can’t be rescued by Mercury through Neechbhang Rajyoga in this case, since Mercury can do so, only if it is duly benefic. Hence such debilitated Venus needs support from an overall positive horoscope as otherwise, it may fail to produce significant positive results, despite being benefic. The concept of various planets exhibiting tendencies to be benefic or malefic on the basis of the houses they rule in a horoscope has been explained in the chapter ‘Gemstones for House Lords’ of the book ‘Gemstones: Magic or Science? (Revised Edition)’.
