What is Paapa Kartari Dosha?

Paapa Kartari ("malefic scissors") forms when a house or planet is hemmed between two malefics — one in the house before it and one in the house after. When the Lagna or the Moon is caught this way, the self or the mind feels squeezed and restricted until the hemming malefics are appeased.
