While looking at the horoscope or birth chart, astrologers tell many people that they are suffering from Pitra dosh, but do you know what exactly Pitra dosh is? And if Pitru dosh is in your horoscope, then it is important to remove it through an expert astrologer.
If we consider Pitra dosh, then the ninth house of a person’s horoscope is considered to be the place of ancestors and the Sun in the Navagraha, which is considered to be the symbol of ancestors. So, a person who has a sun in the horoscope with bad planets or evil planets seen on the sun has Pitra dosh in that horoscope.
What Is Pitra Dosh?
Pitra Dosh, also known as Pitru Dosh, is one of the most destructive astrological doshas, which are found in the birth chart of a person. According to Hindu Philosophy, it is a karmic debt of the ancestors which needs to be paid by the person related to this type of dosh. It is pretty easy to understand that a Pitru dosh is formed in the horoscope of a person when their forefathers have committed any mistakes, crimes, or sins in their life’s journey. But Indian astrology has various Pitra Dosh remedies, which can cure the effects of this dosh in a person’s life.
Types of Pitra Dosh
According to Indian Astrology, there are 14 kinds of Pitra dosh, based on the position and aspects of malefic planets. Mainly, the inappropriate position of the planet ‘Rahu’ is considered the cause of Pitru Dosh. And as per the teachings of Hindu mythology,
There are 3 main types of Pitru Dosha
1. Due to the curse of the departed souls on their own family. If the family members fail to meet the basic requirements, like ‘shraadh pinda daan,’ or rast rite’s rituals, and many more for their ancestors.
2. Due to the curse of the outside; known or unknown living beings who were affected by your living or departed ancestors.
3. Due to failure to look after the aged people; parents or grandparents, and leaving them alone to fend for themselves.
