Planetary Aspects (Drishti) explained
In Vedic astrology, planets don't just sit in a house — they 'look at' (aspect) other houses too, influencing them. This is called Drishti.
The universal rule
Every planet aspects its 7th house
All nine grahas cast a full aspect on the house directly opposite them (7 houses away). This is the one aspect every planet shares.

Why this matters
Aspects change the whole picture
A house can be significantly reshaped by which planets aspect it, even if no planet actually sits there. This is one reason a full chart reading looks well beyond just which planet is in which house.
