There is often a question mark on fate-estimating science i.e. Jyotish that why everything for everyone is never turned reality?
आचार्य शुश्रुत gives precise answer => Sadachar सदाचार – leading a virtuous life : This is the key.
ततो ग्रहांस्तानुवाच भगवान् भगनेत्रहृत्।
तिय्यग्योनिं मानुषञ्च दैवञ्च त्रितयं जगत्॥
Those families where noone performs यज्ञ for Devata and Pitru, where Brahmans, Saints , Guru and Atithi(s) are not welcomed, where charity does not happen, where virtuous living is not demonstrated, all 9 Grahas can afflict the children.
Further, he adds:
“कुलेषु येषु नेज्यन्ते देवाः पितर एव च।
ब्राह्मणाः साधवो वापि गुरवोऽतिथयस्तथा॥
निवृत्तशौचाचारेषु तथा कुत्सितवर्त्तिषु।
निवृत्तभिक्षावलिषु भग्नकांस्यगृहेषु च॥
गृहेषु तेषु बालांस्तान् ग्रहा हिंसन्त्यशङ्किताः।
तत्र वो विपुला वृत्तिः पूजा चैव भविष्यति॥
एवं ग्रहाः समुत्पन्ना बालान् हिंसन्ति चाप्यथ।
ग्रहोपसृष्टा बालाः स्थुर्दुश्चिकित्स्यतमास्ततः॥”
Those who don’t clean body by water after meal/urination/passing stool, those who left duties prescribed by scriptures and Kula(s), Graha(s) can take them over and can cause even death.
In summary, those who are leading life by the yardstick of dharma, fate is easy to overcome.
