mam you are absolutely right that generally when functional malefic of particular ascendant are combust, debilitated or weak is good for the native but planet's natural significations suffers but what would happen if this debilitated planet become retrograde like in cancer lagna in 10th house since retrograde means 3 times power now will this work in favor of native or against it since saturn is functional malefic and will this placement be even more bad for saturn significations or will it improve its significations that's my point of confusion

jai shree ram you are absolutely right this guy generally faces problems in starting regarding significations of 6th house like job, competitive exams and is generally able to overcome but i don't feel he will face problems of saturn after marriage reason being his mars is in 8th house and there is parivartan yoga happening between 8th and 10th house of mars and saturn but yes there can be sudden changes in his career due to this parivartan and saturn debilitated and retrograde

jupiter is sitting in 10 th house along with debilitated and retrograde saturn 2nd from 9th house and 5th from 6th house in the guy's chart
