☿ Mercury in House V - Child & Fortune

Bhrigu Sutras
Mercury in the Fifth Houses Sutras 38-40-If Mercury is in the fifth house, the native's maternal uncle will suffer from a serious trouble of the throat. He will enjoy happiness from mother, will have difficulty in having children, will be highly intelligent, soft spoken and wise. If the lord of 5th is associated with malefics or is weak, there will be loss of children. Having no children he will obtain a son by adoption. He will be sinful and will have belief in mantras.

Comments-It is not clear to us how Mercury in the fifth house will make the maternal uncle of the native suffer from a throat disease. This house has nothing to do with maternal uncle. The native will have difficulty in begetting children because Mercury is a sexless planet (eunuch) but the native will certainly have children if the lord of the 5th and Jupiter (significator for children-Santan Karaka) are strong and well placed. This is implied from Sutra 39 that there will be loss of children if the lord of the 5th is with malefics or is otherwise weak. We are also of the view that Mercury will give much more beneficial results if he is in his own sign or in his sign of exaltation.

Other Views
Brihat Jatak-The person concerned will be a minister.
Phaldeepika-The native will enjoy happiness and glory on account of his brilliant intellect. The native will have many children and he will be learned in mantra shastra.
Saravali-The native will be learned in mantra shastra and hypnotism. He will have a good number of children, will be well educated, will hold a position of authority and will be happy.
Chamatkar Chintamani-The native will get children late in his life. He will be selfish and a clever hypnotist.

Note-Almost all the authorities are in agreement that Mercury in fifth will give beneficial results in the 5th in accordance with the significations of this house. Phaldeepika and Saravali are of the view that with Mercury in the 5th, the native will have many children whereas Bhrigu Sutras holds that the native will have difficulty in begetting children. We reiterate our view ,that the native will be blessed with children if the lord of the 5th and Jupiter are well placed in the horoscope.
