Functional Benefic of Scorpio
The Sun, the Moon, Mars, and Jupiter are considered as the functional benefic of the Scorpio Rising in Vedic Astrology. So, if we take The Sun, which rules the 10th lord so this person has a high chance to be highly authoritative jobs and administrative jobs particularly if this person is born at the full moon and The Sun aspect Leo, there is a high chance of being a politician or in government sectors for sure.
Their mother-in-law will be highly authoritative and egoistic and dominant nature for sure so if we take a moon that rules the 9th house for Scorpio Rising, so the father will be the highly emotional and intuitive person who always stands for them.
So they can always feel emotional balance when they move abroad or travel long distances, also they will get a Guru (teacher or guide) who will teach them and guide them about morals through emotional values.

Here The Sun is the 10th lord and the Moon the 9th lord, the Sun and Moon are friends to each other, so Dharmakarpathi yoga will be good for this sign when the Moon and Sun conjunct or aspect to each other.
if we take Jupiter which rules 2nd and 5th so their financial growth will be good and peak after the marriage only like particularly the children born they will be in a good stable of financial growth also for some people there is a high chance to get assets and properties through they spouse side they will get a children’s who will highly knowledgable and generous with good characteristics for sure so if we take about mars which rules the 1st and also 6th so we can say they are they own enemy for sure like because of the actions they get enemies at the same time they can win them too and they daily routine is always very competitive and busy for sure.

Functional malefic of Scorpio
Saturn, Mercury, Rahu, and Ketu are considered as functional malefic of Scorpio Risings, so if we take Saturn which rules the 3rd and 4th houses, they do always not have a good understanding from the mother and elder siblings.
like their mother is very strict and cold and lacks emotions so mostly they do not have a balance with their mother. They may have to face frequent repairs and services when they buy houses and cars and need to spend a lot.
Also if we take Mercury which rules the 8th and 11th houses, which is one of the big malefics for Scorpios, because Mercury vs. Mars is directly opposite in nature, so they need to be very careful in investing in share and stock and insurance companies.
If Mercury is weak in a chart and also they will get good business friends but they will never gonna be emotionally available and supportive of them so if we take Rahu or Ketu, depending upon the sign it is placed in and if a conjunction happens it will behave like benefic or malefic, but this Rahu or Ketu does not have the influence of Mars and Saturn.
Functional neutral of Scorpio
Venus has considered a functional neutral of Scorpio it rules the 7th and 12th houses in a Scorpio Rising chart, so they will get very beautiful and attract a partner. And a highly romantic one also there have a passionate romance and fight with each other at the same time Venus rules the 12th house so export and import related to clothes and women’s dresses and artistic materials and also investing money in restaurants on foreign land are good for them.
