Hi,
All are entitled to their individual assessment and opinion. In my understanding and humble opinion though, Mercury/Budha being placed in his Neecha-Sthana or sign of debilitation in both Rashi (D-1) and Navamsa (D-9) or being Vargottama is reiterating or enforcing the youngster is not naturally gifted in specific areas of significations.
So, please be mindful…any unreasonable expectation can only fuel discontent and dissatisfaction later on.
Take care…
