Episode 1 read exalted, retrograde Jupiter in the 7th house as a strong Parashari placement for marriage. This episode runs the same chart through KP astrology — Krishnamurti Paddhati — and its central idea: the sub-lord, the ruler of the exact cuspal degree, which KP treats as the final word on what a house delivers.

We explain how KP subdivides each nakshatra into nine unequal segments sized by Vimshottari dasha proportions, how a planet becomes a significator of a house through several channels beyond simple ownership or occupation, and then apply the framework to our locked example chart. The 7th cusp's sub-lord turns out to be Saturn — reframing the marriage promise as delayed and structural rather than swift.

Part 2 of a 3-part series using the same chart: Episode 3 reads it through Jaimini astrology.
