Videsh Yatra/Foreign Travel Problem

Astrology is a belief system that holds that the position and movement of celestial bodies can influence human affairs and events. According to astrology, the placement of certain planets in a person's birth chart can indicate the likelihood of travel and the potential challenges they may face during their journeys.

If you are experiencing difficulties or obstacles in your travels, it may be helpful to consult with a qualified astrologer who can provide guidance based on your birth chart and astrological factors. However, it is also important to consider other factors such as practical considerations, safety concerns, and personal preferences when making travel decisions.

Foreign travel in astrology: Important houses

• According to Brihat Parashara Hora, the combination of the 10th and 4th house plays a vital role. It says, if the lord of the 10th house forms an association with the 4th house, foreign travel is possible. Moreover, if the lord of the 4th house is in full strength, it also shows foreign travel in astrology.
• Other books and authors also support the above combination. Also, they give importance to other houses like the 7th and 9th. Few authors also suggest considering the 12th house for foreign travels.
• So, in a nutshell, we should consider the combination of 4th, 7th, 9th, 10th, and 12th houses, plus their lords, to look at foreign travels in a horoscope.

Foreign travel in astrology: Other important houses and combinations

• The 8th house plays a vital role in foreign travels. But the house is known to be inauspicious, so astrologers consider it quite carefully.
• A strong association of the 8th house (aspected by a benefic planet) and the 11th house may give sudden gains in a foreign land. However, it may cause mental tensions and might increase mental pressure also.
• The primary focus for any foreign travels will always be on the 7th, 9th, and 12th house. However, we cannot rule out the placement of Rahu. Rahu is known as a foreign planet. If Rahu’s placement is appropriate in the yoga or a benefic planet aspect Rahu, it will be good for foreign travel.
• However, if Rahu is not placed appropriately or is aspected or is in conjunction with a malefic planet, the individuals may have difficulties in foreign travels.
• Many astrologers suggest that if the 7th, 9th, and 12th houses are Chara or dual sign Rashi, the chances of foreign travel are high. In my experience, I have also observed it, and it is true in many cases.
