Buddh baitha do me Guru ki jad hilaye, pita se doori ho jaye jo pita se adhik kamaye.
Mercury sitting in the 2nd house shakes the roots of Jupiter; distance from the father occurs if one earns more than the father.
Dr. Sharma reveals a stunning, hidden symptom (*Nishaniya*) of Mercury in the 2nd house.
In Lal Kitab, the 2nd house is the permanent headquarters of Jupiter (Guru) and Venus. When Mercury (Buddh) sits here, it acts as an enemy to Jupiter. Since Jupiter represents the father, elders, and traditional wisdom, Mercury's presence here creates a specific karmic trigger.
Dr. Sharma explains that if a native with Mercury in the 2nd house starts earning more money or achieving higher financial status than their father, it will inevitably create physical, emotional, or ideological distance between them. The financial growth (Mercury) literally "shakes the roots" of the father-son relationship (Jupiter).
