Saturn 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 -
Saturn - Saturn is all that which we don't like in our life. Saturn is Delay, Frustration, Restriction, Limitation and Anxiety. It is Delay, Perseverance, Hard-work and Labour. It is people of Authority, like Boss at your work place or Father at home. Saturn is our challenges and biggest lessons of life. Saturn is Old-age, Teeth/Bones in human body, Diseases, Transformation etc. Saturn is Discipline, Organisation, Structure, Government, Law & Order etc.
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 Saturn as Bhratru Karaka - As I see, following results can be prominent when Saturn becomes someone’s Bhratru Karaka -
1.Saturn is a planet of duty and responsibility in life. It is a planet which gives results only after delay, hard work and perseverance. Saturn is more a work oriented planet rather than relationship oriented planet. To gain any result of the house where Saturn impacts, we have to work for a very long time. Only good thing with Saturn is that when it starts giving result then those results also stay with us for a long time.
2.So, when someone has Saturn as Bhratru Karaka, then relationship with Siblings can be strenous or distant. Person may not even have any sibling.
3.It can create a scenario where person is living far away from their siblings or even if they stay together, it can be a very stressful connection.
4.Here, we need to understand that Saturn is not a relationship oriented planet. Hence, it cannot help us in any relation. When Saturn impacts any relation in your life, you have to continuously work on that relationship tirelessly and then only you can expect some results coming your way. It is always “work in progress” with Saturn.
5.As Bhratru Karaka represents other things related with 3rd house too, Saturn being BK shows that person may realize his true potential later in life. In initial life, person may be self-doubting a lot.
6.It also shows that ideally person should be in self-efforts, business or sole-proprietorship.
7.Person may travel to long distances and travels can be stressful.
8.It also shows that in initial life, person may find difficult to effectively communicate with others and convey his thoughts. He would need to work on his written and oral communications, interests and skills.
9.So, Saturn being Bhratru Karaka means the need to work hard in matters related with Bhratru Karaka in order to receive any good results in later life. But again, only benefit with Saturn is that when it brings results even those results are there for a long time. So here, business may give benefits after 5 years of starting but then if person continues the business then results are there for life-long.
10. Now, whichever house Saturn rules in your chart through Capricorn and Aquarius signs, those houses would also indicate possible areas of interests for business. It also shows that who all will be important to the native in finding these results.
11. Then in whichever house/sign Saturn sits in chart, that shows in which area or direction of life person will be interested in putting his efforts. Like, for an Aries ascendant, if Saturn is in 3rd house/Gemini then all above mentioned results will be more prominent as 3rd house, Gemini and Bhratru Karaka all represent similar things. But for Scorpio ascendant person, if Saturn is placed in 10th house/Leo then person can be interested in making business of his creative pursuits but before that to happen, he has to work really hard over his creative pursuits.
12. If any planet is conjunct with Saturn then it adds its own flavor of things/representations which can bring authority to person.
Dignity - With Saturn, dignity doesn’t matter. Saturn in any sign represents delays, hard work and perseverance. It brings results with delay only, regardless of the fact that Saturn is exalted or debilitated. .
Final conclusion would depend on overall analysis of chart with lots of other factors along with Saturn’s position.
Hope this helps. Thanks,
