Mercury in Pushkar Amsa can give us quick intelligence, ability to Learn, Good Education etc.
Venus in Pushkar Navamsa can give us Help and Support from female friends, Material Wealth and Luxury etc. This is very Good for Marriage and Relationship.
Jupiter is the significator of wealth. When Jupiter is in pushkar navamsha and the sign occupied by Jupiter in navamsha falls in Kendra or trikona of the birth chart then the person is very wealthy and lucky.

Pushkar Navamsha can be Classified in Some special Categories.
- Pushkar Amsa as well as Vargottama Navamsa– Out of 24 Pushkar Navamsa, in only 3 cases Pushkar Amsa is also Vargottam Navamsa. Only a Few Lucky one can have planets in these Navamsa. These People Achieved Great Heights in their Respective field.
- In case of Pushkar Navamsa, if Rashi Lord and Nakshatra Lord are also Benefic Planets then they must give good results. Planets in Such a Pushkar Navamsa can take us to a great Height.
- If a Planet is exalted in Rasi Chart and Debilitated in Navamsa chart yet planets are in Pushkar Navamsa, they do not give expected favorable Results. For example Sun in Aries in Rasi chart in 22°. So Sun is exalted in Rasi chart but it is in Libra Navamsa where Sun is Pushkar Navamsa but it is debilitated. Thus Sun though in Pushkaramsa can not give expected beneficial results.
- Generally when planning a muhurta or time for an event, it would be good to choose a pushkara degree for Auspicious result.
- If 9th Lord or 10th Lord or Lagna Lord of a Chart is in Pushkar Navamsa and also in Kendra house in Navamsa, it will make the person Very Successful and reach top Position of Society.
For example Jupiter is in Scorpio Sign within 1° to 2° falls in Pushkar Amsa and it is in Cancer Sign. This will be a very Good placement for Aries Ascendant, Libra Ascendant or Cancer Lagna. Jupiter will be able to take Such a person to a great height. If we get the Dasha of Such a Jupiter in Perfect age, We can be very Successful during that period.
