When laid out on an astrological chart, our signs are connected to a map of celestial bodies, each placed in a unique position. Astrological practitioners consider these as the lighthouses to predict one⁘s future and add meaning to the past. For example, if you look up your birth chart right now, you will find some planetary positions marked as exalted, and others as debilitated. This can make all the difference in your destiny.

While all of this may sound very complicated, it is not. Here is a cheat sheet to navigate the exalted and debilitated planets chart and its influence.

Vedic and Western astrology categorise the planets as four different dignities. Their powers become malefic (negative or weak) or benefic (positive or strong) for the signs. The four dignities in which the planets move on a birth chart are domicile (in their home sign), exaltation (most comfortable or happy position), exile (in the opposite sign of its ruling sign) and debilitation (weakest position, which is in the sign directly opposite to the sign it exalts in).

While exalted planets give strength and the most benefit of their qualities to the natives, helping them to flourish, their debilitated position has an obstructive, bleak and sometimes harmful effect. A native⁘s moon sign is looked at in Vedic astrology to see exaltation and debilitation.
