                                                                 Ninefold Intelligence Theory And Astrology

                                                     
The Ninefold Intelligence Theory  corresponds to the Nine Revolving Heavens

The Theory of Multiple Intelligences, advanced by Howard Gardner,  states
that " mathematical and musical intelligences may share common thinking
processes". And that intelligence is ninefold.

As far as Astrology is concerned, certain planets rule certain fields. Mercury

rules Computing, Venus rules Music, Jupiter rules Wisdom etc. And these

can confer intelligence according to their significations.

 

Strong significators give intelligence related to their fields.

 

Generally the dictum

 

Malefics in 3,6,10,11 houses

Benefics in 1,4,7,10,5,9,2,11

Confer auspicious results

 

holds good in Natal Astrology.
