INTELLIGENCE AS PER VEDIC ASTROLOGY, MY VIEW WITH A DIFFERENCE
To know an intelligent person, we need to do some good study of the horoscope as there are many parameters that has to be studied deeply and then only one can identify an intelligent person.
In a flat way of answer of identifying an intelligent person is by studying the 5th cuspal sublord ( as per KP vedic astrology ) and then studying Jupiter, moon and mercury individually.
A person can be intelligent in good way as well as in bad way.
A person can be intelligent being a scientist doing research where as a person can be intelligent thru his creative visualization being an architect.
A person is an intelligent chief while other person is an intelligent singer and another person is a computer programmer ( software engineer ).
A criminal person is also an intelligent person and he uses his intelligences for committing crimes.
An early school left out can be a good dancer and a singer. Their 4th and 9th cuspal sublord house will not show qualification for higher studies. But they are intelligent in their own field to be a master.
Let me explain my view with an example.
Great batsman of cricket, Sri Sachin Tendulkar used his intelligence in developing his bating skill and thus he became best and great batsman. But if he is told to do computer programing then he cannot do. Does it mean that he is not intelligent ? ?
SO, FROM THE ABOVE DISCUSSION, IT IS UNDERSTOOD THAT INTELLIGENCE IS A RELATIVE TERM AND HAS TO STUDIED ACCORDINGLY.
When we want to know the intelligence of a person then we should also know in which direction will one do study to understand the intelligence.
For example, for a army person his intelligence should be studied from his fighting skill point of view and thus mars will play an important role in that horoscope apart from other planets. ( there are many more things that’s needed to be studied, but here I am sticking to only with intelligence )
In the same way a chess player’s intelligence should be studied not only from 5th cuspal sublord but also study mercury which helps in quick decision making, moon gives the visualization power to guess the next move by portraying a picture in mind and Saturn is studied to see the balance of the mind.
So in a short explanation with the examples, it is understood that only study of the 5th cuspal sublord is not enough to understand the real intelligence. One also have to study the karak / significator planet related to that subject / field to access the strength of the intelligence.
