Taking an example for a female native, suppose retrograde Jupiter is placed in the second house of a horoscope in Virgo with retrograde Saturn. Benefic exalted Sun is placed in the ninth house in Aries, benefic Venus forms Malavya Yoga in the tenth house in Taurus, Moon is placed in the eighth house in Pisces, Rahu is placed in the twelfth house in Cancer, and Ketu is placed in the sixth house in Capricorn. In this case, the native may become an actor. She may be beautiful, she may possess good acting skills, and she may come across success, money, recognition and fame.
If benefic Mercury is placed in the ninth house in Aries with Sun, and benefic Mars is placed in the tenth house in Taurus with Venus, the equation may become better. In this case, the native may witness a lot of success, money, fame and recognition as an actor. She may deliver many hit movies, and she may win several awards. She may perform very well in the genres of romance, action, drama and comedy. If the finer factors and running times are favourable, she may earn billions through movie business, and she may become one of the most successful actors of her time.
On the other hand, malefic retrograde Jupiter in the second house of a horoscope in Virgo can trouble the native with problems related to marriage (females), husband, children, love life, family, speech, wealth, health, lifespan, profession, finances, reputation, authority, recognition and several other problems, depending on his/her overall horoscope and running times.
Jupiter rules the fifth and eighth house, and it is placed in the second house. If such retrograde Jupiter is influenced by malefic planets, and/or an overall malefic horoscope, the native may witness various types of problems related to his/her family, marriage (female), husband and/or children. The problems related to children may aggravate if the native is female. She may witness delay in childbirth, medical complications, miscarriages, abortions, and/or birth of dead children. She may give birth to children who may be physically and/or mentally troubled. In an extreme case, she may die while giving birth to a child, and even the child may die with her.
Taking an example, suppose retrograde Jupiter is placed in the second house of a horoscope in Virgo with malefic Ketu. Guru Chandal Yoga is formed in the second house. Malefic Saturn is placed in the fifth house in Sagittarius, malefic Rahu is placed in the eighth house in Pisces, benefic Sun and Mercury are placed in the fourth house in Scorpio, and Venus is placed in the sixth house in Capricorn. In this case, the native may not deliver her first alive child till her age of 35 or 40, and she may witness one or two miscarriages.
If benefic Mars is placed in the tenth house in Taurus, and malefic Moon is placed in the fifth house in Sagittarius with Saturn, the equation may become more troublesome. In this case, the native may not have her first alive child till her age of 40 or 45, and she may suffer from two or more miscarriages. If the finer factors and running times are very bad, she may not deliver an alive child throughout her life, though she may witness multiple miscarriages and failed pregnancy attempts.
