Jupiter as Bhratru Karaka

Please check this introductory article to understand the theme and purpose behind this series - https://www.astrosaxena.com/articles/NewSeries-PlanetsasJaiminiKarakas-IntroductoryArticle


Let’s cover this article under following points -


Jupiter - Jupiter is the most benefic planet and it represents all the auspicious things like Knowledge, Wisdom, Law, Guru, Spirituality, Religion, Philosophy, Literature, Expansion of Things and Elderly People. For a girl, Jupiter also represents Husband.


Bhratru Karaka - It is planet with the 3rd highest degree. It is known as Bhratru Karaka or Significator of Siblings. This planet and its position in chart will indicate towards your relations with your siblings. 


Results of Jupiter as Bhratru Karaka - As I see, following results can be prominent when Jupiter becomes someone’s Bhratru Karaka -


1.Jupiter is a planet of wisdom, knowledge, divine Guru and guidance. It is the most benefic planet. It is also the planet of religion, philosophy, literary work and spirituality. In materialistic life, it represents Family, Children, Wealth and what you value in life.


2.So, when someone has Jupiter as Bhratru Karaka, it is like having a Teacher-Student relationship with your sibling. Here, either person guides their siblings a lot or they are guided by them. So, it is more a relationship of guiding each other rather than enjoying or playing like Siblings.


3.As Bhratru Karaka represents other things of 3rd house too and Jupiter expands, it shows that person’s will power and courage will expand as the time progresses.


4.Person can be in some knowledge sharing business and that will also expand with time and efforts.


5.So, person can be very efficient with other things related with Japiter and Bhratru Karaka too, like business, communication, travelling, interests/hobbies/skills etc. Person can be an excellent author or orator. He can also be a teacher in any of his interests and skills.


6.It can also be the case that siblings can play an important role in getting the native to start his own business.


7.Their business can also relate with children or marriage related matters.


8.Now, whichever house Jupiter rules in your chart through Sagittarius and Pisces signs, those houses would also indicate possible destination in life as to in which areas of life person can be interested. It also shows that who all will be important to the native in finding his life destination.


9. Then in whichever house/sign Jupiter sits in chart, that shows in which area or direction of life that protection or care will be exhibited. Like, for a Gemini ascendant, if Jupiter is in 10th house/Pisces then native can be helped by his siblings in matters of career, authority and recognition. But for Virgo ascendant person, if Jupiter is placed in 12th house/Leo then person can be helped by siblings in matters of spirituality, creativity and even for reaching to foreign lands.


10. If any planet is conjunct with Jupiter then it adds its own flavor of things/representations which can bring authority to person.


Dignity - Dignity of Jupiter would indicate if the native will attain the purpose of Jupiter as Bhratru Karaka early in life or with delays in life. He will attain it easily or with difficulties. If Jupiter is in good dignity with impacts of benefic planets then it may indicate that person may realize his true potential easily or in early life itself whereas if Jupiter is losing dignity or impact of malefic planets are there on Jupiter then person may realize his true potential in later life. Jupiter dignity and strength also indicates the kind of support the native may get from his teachers or Gurus in realizing his true potential in life.


Final conclusion would depend on overall analysis of chart with lots of other factors along with Jupiter’s position.


Hope this helps. Thanks,
