Introduction
Education helps people to become better citizens, get a better-paid job, shows the difference between good and bad. Basically Education helps us to grow and develop our personality. Thus, we are able to shape a better society to live in by knowing and respecting rights, laws, and regulations.Education is a word of wide importance and taking the dictionary meaning into consideration, education stands for bringing up or training as of child, instruction, strengthening the powers of the body or mind. Further analysis would say that education includes ‘culture’, technical education, and cover various fields of Art, Music, Drama, Archaeology, Economic and Sanitary Science and Psychological healing. This apart, the word ‘education’ has come to stay for the process of training and developing the knowledge, skill mind and covers normal schooling. However, education cannot be restricted to scholastic education only. It would cover all steps of learning apart from education through schools/colleagues and universities. Hence the need for mind (Moon) for any type of ‘learning education’ would differ from native depending on the personal horoscope.What constitutes ‘education’ for purposes of astrology would differ from native to native and in view of the modern times, astrology would cover education from primary to secondary, secondary to graduation and therefore graduation to post-graduation augmented by higher studies. For example, Learning languages through educational processes helps interact with different people in order to exchange ideas, knowledge, good practices. It teaches us to live in harmony.
In Vedic Astrology, the main significations of Education (known and accepted) are Jupiter and Mercury. For all education purposes, one looks for the placement of Jupiter and Mercury. Apart from these signification’s, the houses to be considered for education are 4th, 2nd, 5th and 9th. For higher and higher education and Government awards, we look into the 11th house. Without dwelling into controversy for educational purposes, it would suffice to say that the main houses for education art 2, 4, 5 and 9.

Sambandha/Planetary Combination
They key in BNN is planetary combination. The Sambandha between the two or more planets can be any of following types.
- Trine Combination (1, 5, 9): The Rasi’s that are in the same direction will form the combination. For example, (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius are in West direction) or (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn are in South direction). Hence any planets situated in the same directions are considered as together and formed a combination.
- The 2 or 12 Combination: The planets placed in 2nd or 12th house from the Mercury.
- The 3,7,11 Combination: The Planets occupying the 3rd, 7th& 11th house from Mercury.
- Exchange of Planets: if Saturn and Mercury are involved in exchange means at that time of Transit Jupiter or Saturn entering into the sign either Natal Saturn or Mercury, then the exchange effect will surely happen.
- Degree of Planets/Sequence of Planets: Here degree of planets also plays a major role, for example (Mercury+ Ketu+ Sun) or (Mercury+ Sun+ Ketu) will give entirely different results.

In his chart trine combination (2,6,10-South Direction) only carries planets Mercury (15 degree) and Ketu (7 degree). Ketu signifies medicines, sharp tools/weapons and Mercury is education, that’s means native will study medicines which involves sharp devices. This combination is very good for surgeon. Still in chart next to Mercury, Venus and Saturn are there which is again reflective of the Shukarcharya(Medicine/treatment) and Diseases. 12th to the Mercury, Sun and Moon are there, again Karka of Medicine/Doctor and Caring.
