The Cycle of the 5:9 Pattern in the Chart and how it

can create a Samdharmi relationship
Next, we will look at the 5:9 pattern cycle in the chart below and compare it to the 6:8 pattern from Visual Three.

One of the first things I noticed about the 5:9 patterns above (using the natural Aries chart) and the 6:8 patterns in
Visual Three is that the 6:8 pattern is completely interlinked thru out the whole of its pattern. For instance, you can
trace the entire 6:8 pattern from any one point that you place your pen down and wind up back at that very same
point once again without ever lifting the pen up from the page. Everything is completely interwoven in that fashion, the
pattern reflecting the "cause and effect" interaction that it creates as you go from one line to the next. However, in the
5:9 pattern above, it consists of 4 independent triangles overlapping each other at various points in the chart, while
each triangle has its own special "grouping" of elements and is totally separate from the next triangle. There is no
way to start at any point with a pen and trace a full complete cycle of all the triangles without first having to pick the
pen up and start each triangle anew. Each set of triangles contains its own separate and individually grouped quality
of

elements.

The RED Triangle indicates the FIRE sign placements in the chart, each point being 5 houses away from the next,
starting with the Sign of Aries, then Leo, then Sagittarius. They indicate the houses 1-5-9 as indicated in the natural
Aries

house.

The YELLOW triangle indicates the EARTH sign placements in the chart, each point being 5 houses away from the
next, starting with the Sign of Taurus, then Virgo and Capricorn. They indicate the next grouping of houses, 2-6-10 as

indicated

in

the

natural

Aries

house.

The GREEN triangle indicates the AIR sign placements in the chart, each point being 5 houses away from the next,
starting with the Sign of Gemini, then Libra and Aquarius. They indicate the next grouping of houses, 3-7-11 as
indicated

in

the

natural

Aries

house.

The BLUE triangle indicates the WATER sign placements in the chart, each point being 5 houses away from the next,
starting with the Sign of Cancer, then Scorpio and finally Pisces. This is the last grouping of houses and is
represented

in

the

natural

Aries

chart

as

4-8-12.

The triangle patterns reflect the ease of the energy flow within each of its 3 elemental sign groupings, because they
are of the same quality, whether it be the fiery, outgoing, stimulating energy (RED) of Aries, Leo or Sagittarius, or the
solid, stable, earthy type of energy (YELLOW) in the signs of Taurus, Virgo or Capricorn. Then there's the airy,
communicative, mental type of energy (GREEN) that comes with the signs of Gemini, Libra and Aquarius and lastly a
watery, psychic, emotional flow of energy (BLUE) that resides in the signs of Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces.
The 5:9 pattern is also reflective of the ease in which two people can communicate with each other when they have
this planetary relationship between them, creating a natural TRINE aspect. They become "in sync" with each other
according

to

the

elemental

group

that

they

are

both

channeling

into.

When two planets are in a 5:9 relationship in a chart and their degree locations put them in the same
navamsa,

they

become

Samdharmi

to

each

other.

Let's use Mercury and Ketu in my natal chart below to show an example of how this works. Mercury is in 4 AQU 57
and Ketu is in 5 LIB 28. They are in a 5:9 relationship to each other. As you can see in the natal data chart below,
(highlighted in yellow), both of these planets also have their navamsas in Scorpio (also see Navamsa chart below)
and become conjoined in the same house. Because of this, they become Samdharmi to each other.

However we can't automatically assume that every time we see two planets conjoined in the same Navamsa, that
they have to be in a 5:9 relationship in their rasi chart, because it doesn't necessarily work both ways. For example,
look at my natal chart (in both Southern and Northern formats) below and see my navamsa now from another angle.

Although you see the Sun and Saturn together in the Gemini Navamsa, if you look at my natal chart, you will see that
these two planets are not in a 5:9 relationship, but rather oppose each other and have different nakshatra lords,
(highlighted above), so they cannot be Samdharmi in any way. Therefore you can't always assume that two planets
together in the Navamsa will necessarily reflect a 5:9 relationship in the natal chart.
