commonly known as H indu Sys tem o f As t ro logy)genera l l y unders tood the sc ience connected w i thHoroscope reading, Palmistry, Horary, Varshaphala,Mundane, MeteorologY etc.

The horoscope depicts a picture of the resul tsof the Karmas done by the native in his past births(known as Sanch i t Karmas) , wh ich are genera l l y

Bhagya is on ly the accumula ted ba lance o f'Karma Phrala 'avai lable in the present bir th, out of

karmas, which are known as Prarabadha, are al lotedfor th is b i r th (p resent b i r th ) . The na t ive is supposedto enjoy the f ru i ts of the good karmas and to suf ferm is ie r ies fo r h i s s ins . The f ruc t i f i ca t ion o f thesedepend upon the order of the dasha the "at ive getsdur ing the present bir th and on the gochara ( t ransi tpos i t ion) .

The third category of the karmas i .e. Kr iyamanand Agami Karmas is the karmas the native wil l doin th is b i r th . The resu l ts o f these karmas can beenjoyed by the nat ive dur ing the present bir th or theymay also go to the deposit of Sanchita Karmas. Thisagain depends upon the order of the dasha and transi tpos i t ion the na t ive ge ts dur ing the present b i r th . Wehave seen many people working sincerely and arequi te el ig ib le to achieve certain resul ts, but they don' tget i t . The persons who were less s incere and werealso not capable of get t ing, do get the favourableresu l ts . The d i f fe rence is because the favourab ledasha gives one the success and the unfavourableper iod denies the same to the other.

The pred ic t i ve par t i s the most d i f f i cu l t andundependab le one . One has to work hard tounders tand the mean ings and app l i ca t ion o f themyster ious pr inciples of Astrology. We should prayGod to he lp us in learn ing th is sacred sc ience anda lso in serv ing the human be ings w i th the he lp o fVedic Astrology.

The predict ive astrology needs knowledge aboutthe charac ter is t i cs and func t ions o f p lanets , s igns ,houses , yogas , dashas and use o f a l l l imbs o fastrology for gett ing accurate predict ions.

SIGNS OF ZODIAC ANDPLANETS

1.1(a) H indu As t ronomy cons iders So lar sys temwith reference to i ts const i tuents, the nine pianetsand twenty seven stars (nakshatras or constelrtions).Our 'so la r sys tem (wh ich is known to us) i s on ly afragment of the universe which has many other suchso lar sys tems. Out o f many luminous bod ies s igh tedin the skies, some are stars, yet some are planets(known as g rahas) . The s ta rs (naksha i ras o raster isms) have no movement. p lanets move throughlhe nakshatras (or asterisms) in the Zodiac (Bhachaki).

1.1(b) The Planets do not have the same meaningin.astronomy and astrology. The Moon in astronomyref lects l ight f rom the Sun but in astrology i t has beengiven the same rank as that of the Sun. Rahu andKetu (fhe dragon's head and dragon's tail) are justthe nodal points in astronomy. ln astrology ihese areknown as shadowy planets (chayya granii l Rahu andKetu always remain exaci ly 1g0o apart f rom eachother . The i r pos i t ions are fo rmed when the Mooncrosses the ecliptic from Northern latitude to southernlatitude and vice versa.

Predictive Astrology

1.1(c ) The Zod iac (c i rc le o f 360" ) has no beg inn ingor end, i t is just a c i rc le of l ight . To measure th is c i rc lean arbi t rary point is taken into considerat ion which isthe f i rst point of 0 degree of the f i rst star Ashwini .

The Zodiac of 360' if divided by 27 (number ofconstellations in a Zodiac) gives 13"20' being mansionsof each nakshatra. Each nakshatra is fur ther div idedinto four parts cal led padas or charans measur ing3"20' each. Which means' that the Zodiac of 360" isd iv ided in to 108 par ts measur ing 3"20 ' each.

The ent i re Nirayana Zodiac is div ided into threeequal span of 120' each, we wi l l have rashis end pointknown as GANDANTA conciding with the end point ofNakshatra. There wi l l be there such si tuat ions - Firstat the end of Pisces and beginning of Ar ies, secondlyat the end of Cancer and beginning of Leo and thirdlyat the end of Scorpio and beginning of Sagi t tar ius.(Nakshatras involved are Revat i - Ashwini , Ashlesa'- Magha and Jyestha - Moola).

The names of nakshatras and their lords are'given in the table below. Each planet is given the

lordship of 3 nakshatras out of these 27 nakshatras.In addi t ion to these 27 nakshatras there is Abhi j i tNakshatra ranging l rom 276"40' to 280'53'34". (Thernethod of calculation is: Take 4th pada of uttarashada'Nakshatra and add / , r th of the r t1 (measurement)o f S ravana Naksha t ra . Th is Naksha t ra i s usedlenera l l y in Muhur ta and many chakras e tc . wh ichwi l ' be d iscussed in V isharada course . )

1.1(e) We a l l know tha t the ear th takes 24 hours

to rotate on i ts axis and 365 days 6 hours to go round

the Sun. Due to Earth 's rotat ion on i ts axis, we get

the phenomena,sunr ise ' and 'sunset ' . The revo lu t ion

of the Earth round the sun gives 'seasons' ' To make

i t s imp le to unders tand, we say the Sun is mov ing

round the Ear th , and tha t sun r i ses in the eas t and

sets in the west. Whatever be the Rashi , out of the

twelve Rashis, that r ises in the east at any part icular

The seven planets own 12 signs, as shown in tablein para 1 .1 (d) ib id . Rahu and Ketu have no p lace o ftheir own. But they give ef fect of the s ign they occupyor the p lanets they are assoc ia ted w i th . The de ta i ledd iscuss ion w i l l be taken up la te r on .

Note:

(1 ) Decreas ing Moon and increas ing Moon dueto the Mot ion o f Moon w i th respec t to thepos i t ion o f the Sun. When Moon is ahead o fSun t i l l i t reaches 180 degree apart , the Moonis increasing (cal led 'Poornima Ka Chand'Shuk la Paksha Moon o r Wax ing Moon) .Beyond 180" to 0 ' (when i t jo ins Sun) i s themot ion o f Moon approach ing Sun is ca l leddecreasing Moon (called Krishna Paksha Moonor (ffut qq) 'Amavasya Ka Chand'or waningMoon) , 0 " to 120 ' med ium, 120" to 240"ausp ic ious (s t rong) and f rom 240" to 0" she(the Moon) is beref t of strength.

(2 ) Accord ing to Sage Parashar Mercurybecomes ma le f i c i f he jo ins a ma le f i c . l f

(3) According to Sages Mantreshwara, KalyanVarma, Mahr ish i Vash is tha and Parashara


the Sun is no t ma le f i c (paap graha) bu t aKrura graha (c rue l , unk ind , r ig id ) . Be ing thesoul of universe and Karaka for father cannever be same l i ke o ther ma le f i cs . He maybe strict. The western astrologer Sepharicalhas treated the Sun as a benef ic planet. Theother western astrologers have treated theSun as responsible for causing separation.

Here is the controversy, some astrologers takeRahu exa l ted in Gemin i , Ke tu exa l ted in Sag i t ta r ius .Deb i l i ta ted Rahu in Sag i t ta r ius and Ketu in Gemin i .

To exp la in the above, the en t i re s ign Leo isowned by the Sun ( the Sun from 0" to 20" of Leo ist rea ted as in Moo l t r i kona) and i f the Sun is in Leo,we say the Sun is strong because he is in his owns ign . l f the Sun is in Ar ies , we say tha t the Sun is inthe sign of gxal tat ion and therefore strong or that theSun is exahed. But i f the Sun is in L ib ra . the Sun is


i n h is s ign o f deb i l i ta t ion and there fore weak or theSun is deb i l i ta ted .

Exal ted planets give good resul t and debi l i tatedp lanets g ive reverse resu l t . The deb i l i ta ted p lanetbecomes weak, hence is not in a posi t ion to give resul tsp roper l y . The ma le f i c w i l l no t cause inausp ic iousresu l t and the benef ic w i l l no t g ive ausp ic ious resu l ts .

The 3rd degree o f Taurus is the Moon 's h ighes tdegree of exal tat ion and the 3rd degree of Scorpio isher deepest deb i l i ta t ion po in t . The deb i l i ta t ion po in tsare found by add ing 180o to exa l ta t ion .

KARAKATWAS OF PLANETSAND HOUSES - PART I

3.1(a) KARAKA

It l i terally means that which does or a factor or a suff ixdenot ing the factor responsible for a resul t . One whodoes the work of others on their behal f as a dutyassigned to him or gives s imi lar resul ts as expectedfrom other planet, is called Karaka for that planet.Karakatwa is the duty assigned to him (Karaka). lnthe astrological terms a planet doing the work of ahouse is cal led Karaka of that house (Bhava). Herea quest ion arses as to what is a house.

The sign r is ing in the eastern hor izon at the t imeof bir th of the nat ive is cal led f i rst house (Lagna orAscendent) , the subsequent Rasis r is ing af ter thatare respect ively cal led 2nd house, 3rd house, 4thhouse and so on upto 12th house t i l l the same signr ises again. This complete round of the c i rc le givesus I to Xl l houses of the Bir th chart and the posi t ionof the planets t ransi t ing in there di f ferent s igns (nowknown as di f ferent bhavas for th is nat ive) comprise ahoroscope. The planets, which are lord of respectivesigns, remains the lords of the bhavas (representedby the signs or Rashis.)


l l lustrations:

Le t us p resume tha t the L ib ra was r i s ing in theeastern hor izon at the t ime of b i r th of a nat ive. L ibrabecomes the ascenclant for the bir th chart of thatnat ive. The next s ign to Libra is Scorpio, which is thesecond house fo r th is char t , Sag i t ta r ius the th i rd ,Capr icorn the fourth, Aqaur ius the f i f th, Pisces thesixth, Ar ies the seventh, Taurus the eighth, Geminithe ninth, Cancer the tenth, Leo eleventh and Kanyatwelfth bhavas.

See the fol lowing chart :

Note:

The Bhavas are marked as l , l l , l l l . . . . to X l l .

The Ras is (S igns) a re ind ica ted as 1 ,2 , g . . . . to 12 .

The planets have been assigned the work of thesebhavas also. For predictive purposes we analyse thedisposition of house, lord of that house and the Karakaof that house. After studying about these three factorswe can intrepret the results of a bhava. We now discussbriefly about these bhava and their functions.

X house Karma bhava, (Profession, l ivel ihood,act ions)

Xl house Labha bhava (Gains, e lders etc.)

X l l house Vyaya bhava (expend i tu re e tc . ) ;Moksha Sthana.

There are planets which are s igni f icators of theresul ts 'of these houses and give resul ts accordingly '

For example:

Let us discuss about the 4th house. The fourth houserepresents mother and vehic le besides many otherth ings .

The four th house and the lo rd o f the four thhouse (means the lord of the s ign which is fourth f romthe sign of Ascendant or Lagna), wi l l te l l us aboutthe mother and vehic le both. l f whi le analysing thechart we f ind that:

(a) There is a t ime of change which is shown f romthe study of 4th house i .e. an old one is to bereplaced bY a new one or


(b) l t is a bad per iod for the resul ts of the fourthbhava i .e. some trouble is indicated to take place.Shou ld we pred ic t change o f veh ic le o r house

or mother. l t is a bad per iod for mother, vehic le or forwhat? So to a r r i ve a t a par t i cu la r po in t (ques t ion orevent) the Rishis have given us many methods, suchas the di f ferent vargas etc. The Karakas are also veryhelpf u l to analyse such matters and help us to reachto an accurate predict ion.

The Moon (as Karaka) te l ls us about the mother.Any af f l ic t ion to the Moon together wi th af f l ic t ion to4th house and 4th lord wil l show a bad period for mothel.

In a s imi la r way i f an as t ro loger f inds a f f l i c t ionto the 4th house and 4th lord and instead of the Moon,to Venus (Karaka fo r veh ic le ) a p red ic t ion can beg iven about veh ic le .

Thus i t wou ld now be c lear tha t the mat te r(events) governed by any house or i ts lord shouldalso be judged f rom the Karaka planet for that bhavato ar r i ve a t a p rec ise conc lus ion .

The use and importance of the knowledge aboutthe func t ion ing o f p lanets , and the i r Karakatwas andthe i r re la t ions w i th d i f fe ren t bhavas in the horoscopeis very relevant. Unless these three factors are wellconsidered, any conclusion witt be wrong orunscientific.

AVASTHAS OF PLANETS

We have learnt that the Planets are moving in theTodiac and transi t ing over the constel lat ions (zodiacis marked by 27 constel lat ions or Nakshatras). Theplanets on account of their incessant movements getinto certain states of existence known as avasthas.

4.1 INFANT STATE etc. (Baladi Avastha)

These are bal (infant), Kumar (youthful), Yuva (adolescent),Vr iddha (old) and Mri t (dead) and these f ive statesare based on the degrees at ta ined by a planet in as ign (Rash i ) .

In odd signs these states are placed in ascendingorder at the rate of 6 degrees.

In even signs these states are laced in decendingorder at the rate of 6 degrees.

KARAKATWAS OF PLANETSAND HOUSES - PART-II

Astrology is super science. There are many checksthrough which facts concerning a man's l i fe can bever i f ied before any predict ion is given. We have learntabout the 12 zodiac signs and their lords, 27 Nakshatrasand their lords, character ist ics of s igns and planets,the point of deep exaltation, debil itation etc. of planetsand thelr avasthas along with the 12 houses and theirf unc t ions .

These planet give resul ts of speci f ic houses(Bhavas) of which they are lords or in which they areposi ted together wi th the Karakatwas assigned tothem. (Refer Chapter 3 )

Exanple: The 9th house deals wi th father. The 9thhouse, the lord of the 9th bhava and the Karaka forthe 9th house represent ing father- a l l three wi l l haveto be cnsidered to know about the status of the fatherof the nat ive.

THEORIES OF BIRTH TIMERECTIFICATION

6.1(a) Most of the horoscopes when rel ied uponwi thou t p roper check ing resu l t s in to fa i l u re o fpredict ions. l t therefore becomes necessary to ver i fythe accuracy of the mathematical calculat ions of thehoroscope. Another problem is that the parents donot no te the exac t t ime o f b i r th e i ther due to nonava i lab i l i t y o f watches or fo r o ther reasons . Thedoc to rs in hosp i ta l s too a re no t aware o f theimportance of b i r th t ime for astrological purposes.

There is a controversy about the t ime of b i r thwhether the cor rec t t ime fo r b i r th i s ( i ) F i rs t s igh t o fthe part of body ( i i ) Fal l out of the body on f loor (ortab le ) o r ( i i i ) f i r s t c ry o f the ch i ld . The nurses ordoctors at tending to the del ivery are f i rst concernedabout the safe del ivery of the chi ld and sometime i tresul ts into not ing down the incorrect t ime of b i r th.

Whi le the importance of the correct instant isso much, we cannot lay any hard and fast ru les whichwi l l enab le us to f ind ou t th is exac t ins tan t . l t i saccepted by learned astrologers that the exact t imeof bir th is the t ime when the umbi l ical cord is cut . / t

Wh i le descr ib ing the va r ious comb ina t ionsgoverning the process f rom concept ion (garbhadhan)to de l i very o f the ch i ld , the impor tance o f the Moonas a source o f impregnat ion e tc . has been proved.Therefore i t is possible to rect i fy the t ime of b i r th byadjust ing the Moon and Ascendant at b i r th and atconcept ion .

Sage Varahmihira observes in Brihat Jataka asunder :

F ind the par t i cu la r dwadashamsha o f a s ign wh ichthe Moon occup ies a t the t ime o f concep t ion(garbhadhan) . Note the number o f dwadashamshaor the rash i in wh ich th is dwadshamsha fa l l s . Countf rom th is rash i as many rash is as the number o fdwadashamsha represented by dwadashamsha inquest ion ( the dwadashamsha of Moon at the t ime ofconcept ion) . The t rans i t o f Moon in the rash i so foundin the month o f de l i very , the b i r th o f a ch i ld may beexpected.

Example :

Suppose the Moon is 6'10"25'at the time ol conception.Here Moon i s pos i ted in Tu la . The number o f

9 1


dwadashamsha is f i f th, which fa l ls in Kumbha. Thenumber of dwadashamsha is f ive, so count f ifth Rashifrom Kumbha i.e. Mithuna. So the birth of the child can bewhen Moon transits Mithuna (fifth Rashi from Kumbha).

6 .1 (c ) ACCORDING TO DR. B .V. RAMAN :'Th is b ranch o f As t ro logy (b i r th ve r i f i ca t ion andrec t i f i ca t ion) does no t come wi th in the scope o f abeg inner o r an amateur . And b i r th t imes can berect i f ied only by men of exper ience by a considerat ionof pronounced l i fe events".

6 .1 (d) In case o f lnd i ra Gandh i and Ra j iv Gandh i ,the re was a con t roversy among the lea rnedast ro logers about the lagnas o f the two char ts . Incase o f lnd i ra Gandh i the horoscope was d iscussedin as t ro log ica l a r t i c les tak ing her lagna as karka orS imha. S ince 1982 , the p red ic t ions "bad fo r herhea l th " were g iven, tak ing her lagna as Karaka lagnaand a lso on the bas is o f S imha lagna. She d ied inOctober 1984, but the astrologers could not reconci leon her correct lagna. The same was the case of Raj ivGandh i ' s horoscope. We wi l l s imp ly say tha t to f i xthe cor rec t b i r th t ime, i s a very d i f f i cu l t task be forean as t ro loger . An exper ienced as t ro loger , a f te rproper ly app ly ing the as t ro log ica l p r inc ip les can dothis rect i f icat ion on the basis of the past events inthe l i fe o f the na t ive .

6 .2 For theore t i ca l pu rposes , fo r the s tuden t o fJyo t ish , we d iscuss some o f the ru les wh ich aregenera l l y accepted by learned as tor logers :

Note : One o f our s tudent 's lagna has been f i xed ( in1990) as Sag i t ta r ius by some as t ro logers bu t , o thershave f i xed Capr icorn as h is lagna. The pred ic t ionshave been g iven by bo th the g roups . The h igh


percentage of predict ions f rom Sagit tar ius have cometrue. St i l l the nat ive himsel f being a learned astrologercou ld no t dec ide about h is cor rec t lagna ( t i l l 1999) .To f ind the Nakshat ra o f b i r thMul t ip ly the t ime in te rva l be tween Sunr ise and t imeof b i r th (conver teO in tJ ,Gnat is ) by four and d iv idethe produc t by n ine . The remainder must g ive theru l ing cons te l la t ion when coun ted f rom Ketu 'snakshat ras (Ashwin i , Magha or Moo la) .

Example I :

(A) Bio-data (Tools for calculat ion)

Date of Bir th = 19-9-1931Sunrise Sunset6hrs 12mts 18hrs 19mts

Time of Bir th = 3-30 a.m. ( lST)

Place of Bir th = DelhiSun's longi tude = 52o7'

Janma nakshatra (as per horoscope) = Moola I pada

(B) No. o f hours passed f rom sunr ise to B i r th T ime= 21Hrs 18mts

(C) Time di f ference at (B) converted into Vighat is= 53 Ghat is 15 V ighat is

o r 3195 V igha t i s

(D) Now ca lcu la te Janma Nakshat ra= 3195x4+9= 142O 0 /9 ( fu l l y d iv is ib le )

Remainder i s OThis shows some minor correct ion is r .equired

here as the remainder shou ld have been one (Moo laNakshat ra ) .


l f we make correct ion of ( - ) 2 Vighat is and takeVighat is as 3193 the pos i t ion is as under :

3193 x 4 +9 = 12772+ 9 = 1419 119Remainder i s One i .e . nakshat ra i s Moo la . The

cor rec t t ime shou ld be f i f t y th ree Ghat is and th i r teenVighat is a f te r sunr ise .

Example ll :

(A) Bio-Data (Tools for calaculat ion)

Date o f B i r th = 10-6-1933Sunrise SunsefShrs 27mts 19hrs 13mts

T ime o f B i r th = 9 -11 am ( lST)

P lace o f B i r th= De lh iSun 's Long i tude = 1 .25o53 'Janma Nakshat ra = Purva Pha lgun i lV(as per horoscope)

(B) Number of hours passed f rom Sunrise to bir th t ime= 3hrs 44mts

(C) Time di f ference converted into Vighat is= 9 Ghat is 20 V ighat is

or 560 Vighat is(D) Now calculate Nakshatra

= 560x4+9=248 8 /9

According to th is calculat ion there is a wrongresul t .Hence the t ime of b i r th needs some rect i f icat ionas we have done in the ear l ie r Example No.1 . Thencorrect remainder should be two instead of e ight (ascounted f rom Magha, Pha lgun i i s Number two)

l f we make correct ion of (+) 3 Vighat is to 560and get 563 Vighat is as corrected t ime the posi t ion


i s as under :

563 x 4+9 =2252+ 9 = 250 2 /9

we get remainder = 2

Nakshat ras counted f rom Magha is Purva Pha lgun i .

Ther:efore the corrected Time = 9 Ghat is 23 Vighat is

Here we have seen that a minor adjustment int ime o f b i r th was requ i red . In the f i rs t case the t imewas reduced by two Vighat is or for ty eight secondsto b i r th t ime. In example l l the t ime is to be inc reased.

6.3 TO FIND LAGNA AT BIRTH

This method w i l l be app l ied a f te r tak ing in toaccount the corrected t ime of these very cases. Letus see the resu l t s . In th i s method we w i l l checkAscendant (Lagna) As we know the Lagna is the s ignol Todiac r is ing in the Eastern hor izon at t ime of b i r th.A t t ime o f sunr ise the s ign where Sun is pos i ted r i sesin the Eas t .

The exact point ( longi tude of the Sun in thats ign on a date) of that s ign at which Sun is posi ted at( t ime o f Sunr ise) the t ime i t r i ses in the Eas t . A f te rthat Rashi one after the other rahsis at interval of abouttwo hours, r ises turn by turn t i l l the next sunr ise.

The part of the s ign upto the elapsed degreesof the Sun, r i ses jus t be fore sunr ise and the s ign jus toppos i te to the Sun s ign (seven th s ign ) r i ses a tsunse t .

The fol lowing examples may be studied and theformulae may be tried on the horoscope in your records(having correct Planetary positions and time of birth).

6 .8 CONCLUSION

The methods d iscussed above a re some o f themethods used for f ix ing the lagna and also correctnakshatras. This helps us in rect i f icat ion of b i r th t ime.

The most dependable method is of casting atleas t Saptavargas , ca lcu la t ion o f mahadasha,antardasha and pratyantar dasha and also calculatetransit for the important events of tiie of the native.Every event is to be tallied with these three maiorfactors (i) Promise in the chart (ii) lts fructificationaccording to dasha etc. (iii) Timing of the eventwith the help of transit. All these can be done onlywhen at least sufficient knowledge of Astrological:principles and their applications are well understood.The student must learn the subiect f rom someexper ienced, learned astrologers and also gainexperience in the company of his guide or Guru onlythen the rectification of birth time becomes possible

Dr . Raman has g iven us a la rge number o fbooks to study the subiect . The future generat ionwi l l be indebted to him for his service to the div inescience.The Indain Council of Astrological Sciences(Regd.) Madras through its chapters all over India,spec ia l l y De lh i Chapter l , under the gu idance o f thegreat astrologer of th is century Dr. B.V. Raman ispropagat ing astrology. Since 1987 Delhi Chapter ( thef i rs t ins t i tu t ion wh ich s ta r ted as t ro logy c lasses in

India) is conduct ing astrology classes for the el i tepeople of th is country, wi th a scient i f ic approach, toprove the u t i l i t y o f th is d iv ine sc ience.We a lwaysstress the need for ver i f icat ion of the bir th chart wi ththe past events of the l i fe of the nat i ' , " - . Unless thepast events are ver i f ied, no future predict ion shouldbe g iven and i f there is any need the necessarycorrect ion in t ime of b i r th etc. is to be made :"Our approach should be from known to unknown."

(d ) The assoc ia t ion o f Venus and Mars(associat ion of lords of f i rst and seventh).

7.2 The above associat ions show that there is someconnec t ion be tween the lo rds o f Kendras andTrikonas.Kendras are Vishnu sthanas and Trikonasare Lakshmi s thanas . Th is means tha t thecombinat ion of these two assures the grace (kr ipa)of both Vishnu and Laksmi ( lakshmi Narayan). Oneis very lucky i f he has the i r combined grace (k r ipa) .I t appears that the horoscope is very strong.

To calculate the Bhogya Dasha (Balance of dashaoperat ing a ' t the t ime of b i r th) the method is:


Mul t ip ly the dasha per iod (o f the p lanet who islord of that Nakshatra in which the Moon was posi tedat the t ime of b i r th) by the per iod of stay of the Moonin tha t Janma Nakshat ra tha t has exp i red and d iv idei t by the total per iod of the stay of the Moon in thatNakshatra. The f igure in years, months, days etc. soarrived at wil l show the expired period (Bhukta dasha)of the dasha.

' Th is f igure when deducted f rom the to ta l per iodof the dasha (al lot ted to that p lanet who is JanmaNaksha t ra lo rd ) w i l l g i ve the ba lance o f dasha(bhogya dasha) to be enjoyed by the nat ive at thet ime o f b i r th .

7 .7 CLASSICAL METHOD OF CALCULATION

Exampte : Suppose the Moon i s in Mr igas i raNakshat ra a t the t ime o f b i r th whose lo rd i s Mars .The expired per iod of Mrigasira is f i f ty s ix ghat is andf i f t y f i ve pa las (o r 3415 pa las) . The to ta l per iod o fMr igas i ra ( t i rne taken by Moon to t raverse theMrigasira nakshatra) is f i f ty n ine ghat is th i r ty one pala(or 3571 pa las) . .

3415 x7 +3571(Total of expired period (x) No. of years allotted to Mars (+) the

total per iod taken by Moon to traverse Mrigasira Nakshatra)

= 23905 + 3571

= 6 years - 8 months - gdays - 54ghati ' 47 pal is Bhukta dasha.

Deduct th is f rom total per iod of Tyrs we get :

years months daYs ghatis Palas

Therefore 3 months - 20 days - 5 ghat is and 13palas are the balance of Mars per iod avai lable at thet ime o f b i r th .

Th is method is based on panchangas and isknown as traditional (or classical) method.

7 .8 MODERN M ETHODToday the Researchers in Astrology have devisedmany s imp ler method to ca lcu la te the ba lance o fdasha at b i r th. For th is we have to know the longi tudeof the Moon and the Janma Rash i .

In the ear l ie r chapters we have read tha t thereare twenty seven nakshatras (cover ing 360 degrees),each nakshatra measures th i r teen degrees twentyminutes and has four padas each measur ing th reedegrees twenty rninutes. Such nine padas (measur ing3 degrees 20 rn inu tes) o f 2% Naksht ras compr ise aRash i ( s ign ) o f th i r t y degrees . The s ta r t o f bo thNakshatra and Rashi chakra is f rom zero degreesAr ies ( the f i rs t po in t o f Zod iac) .

7 .9 EFFECTS OF DASHAS

Rishi Parashara says :

qrrg"i frRre-q-qqici EEti qaq Iq-6["ri q g qriq qsTF{Rerfu4t|-{ q | |

There are two kinds of ef fects of dashas:

(1 )Genera l_Thena tu ra lcharac te r i s t i cso fp |ane tscauses general ef fects '

(2) Dist inct ive- Planets give the ef fect of the lord

of Rashi in which they are posi ted' the planet

with whom posi ted or by whom aspected'

Here the formula given below wi l l help us to remember

th is :

P = Posi ted A = Aspected Q = Conjuncted

So remember PAC for dist inct ive ef fects '

For the present we may say that dashas are very

important to be used for predict ive purposes'

Let us f ur ther explain the use of dasha f rom the

fol lowing i l lustrat ion:

Mr . A has a p ronote fo r Rs ' 10 '000/ - and a lso

he has to pay Rs. b,OOO to some body' He is in a f ix


as to what to do, unless he knows that the date ofmatur i ty of the Pronote is before due date of paymento f debt . l f th is i s the pos i t ion he is sa fe . He w i l l ge tthe money, before the due date of the payment. Whocan help him for th is , nobody except the matur i tydate on the pronote.

The dasha plays the role of te l l ing the matur i tydate. So we calculate the correct degrees of the Moonto f ind ou t the ba lance o f V imshot ta r i Mahadasharunn ing a t the t ime o f b i r th .

7 .10 CALCULATION OF ANTARDASHA (Subper iods o f the Mahadasha)

There are more than one method of calculat ions, oneof them is as under :( i ) Mut ip ly the number o f years o f dasha o f the

p lane t whose Mahadasha (ma jo r per iod ) i srunning by the number of years of the dasha ofthe planet whose anatrdasha is to be known.Divide the product by ten, the quot ient wi l l bemonth and remainder mu l t ip l ied by th ree w i l lindicate days.

Example : Jup i te r Mahadasha (16 years )

The f i rs t an tardasha w i l l be o f Jup i te r , second o fSaturn , th i rd o f Mercury and so on ( the order o fdasha, sub and sub-sub per iods is the same) .

Jup i te r = 16 x 16 = 256 + 10 = 25 months -18 days

or 2 years 1 month 18 daYs

Saturn = 16 x 19 = 304 + 10 = 30 months-12 days

or 2 years 6 months 12 daYs and so on.

( i i ) Another s imp le ca lcu la t ion is as under :

Jup i te r (M.D. ) / JuP i te r (A .D. )

By mu l t ip l y ing the number o f years o f theMahadasha Nath and the Antardasha Nath we get :

( i ) 16 x 16 = 256( i i ) D iv ide the f igure a t ( i ) by 10

vye get 25.6( i i i ) 25 is Months and 6 i f mu l t ip l ied by 3 w i l t g ive

= 2 years 1 month 18 days

In th is way the A.D. o f any p lanet can be ca lcu la ted .

7.11 PRATYANTAAR DASHA (SUB-SUB PER|ODS)

To f ind ou t Pra tyantar dasha, we w i l l do in s imi la rmanner :

Jup i te r ' s an tardasha in Jup i te r ' s mahadasha= 2 yrs 1 mth 18 days

Jup i te r ' s p ra tyan ta r = 16 + 120 x 2 -1 -18 o r 25months 18 days (or 768 days)

= 768+120x16= 6 .4 x 16= 102.4 days= 3 months 12 days 9 .0 hours

Satu rn = 6 .4x19=121.6= 4 months 1 day 14.4 hours and so on.

Another s imp le method is g iven under :

Jup i te r ' s p ra tyan ta r dasha in Jup i te r ' san tardasha in Jup i te r ' s mahadasha-

16x16x16 = 512 days = 3 months 12 days t hours 36 min.405


Satu rn ' s p ra tyan ta r dasha in Jup i te r , san tardasha in Jup i te r ' s mahadasha_

16x16x19=608 days =4months 1 day l4hours 24min .405

Note: The year is taken to be of 360 days.The students can pract ise any method which

they think most easy and accurate. These methodscan be used in s imi la r ways fo r f u r ther reduc ing thedasha which wi i l g ive the per iod in days and h"oursand so on .We can f ind ou t in hours and minutes a lso .Th is means i t can be known tha t a t a par t i cu la r .mo-ment the per iod tha t i s runn ing is favourab le o runfavourabre. what wi i l be the resul t of the part icurarac t ion done a t tha t t ime.

7.12 The mahadasha gives us a pero\d as al lot ted tothe planet. The antardasha br ings Oo\,vn tn is per ioOto a minimum of B lz months anO to ai maximum ofthree years four months, and the pratyantar dashafurther shortens the per iod to 5 days g. i6 hours (Sun/Sun/ Sun) to maximum 6 monthi 20 cf lays (Venus/V91ys/ Venus). This process helps us to ti lme il ie eventwithin maximum per iod of s ix months. This can furtherbe reduced to shook:hT" dasha (sub_sub_.rU p"rioOyand so on, the formula for calculat ion is the sanre.

9.2 The above ef fects of the planets are modif ied

because of PAC connect ions i f they are associatec

w i tho therp |ane ts .Theassoc ia t ionorconnec t ionorrelat ion between the planets can be :

(A) Due to their Posi t ions (P and C)

(1) in the same house or con junc t ion

(2) in each other 's nakshatras, (g) having exchanged houses


(B) Due to the i r aspec t (Dr ish t i ) on each o ther - (A)(1 ) A p lanet aspec t ing o ther p lanet

(2 ) A p lanet aspec t ing o ther p lanet and in tu rnaspected by other planet (Mutual Aspects).

The 'A 'above is unders tood because we havelearn t tha t the p lane ts own some houses andnakshatras. 'B ' is yet to be discussed. Now we wi l ld iscuss about the "Aspects" . The aspec t o f thebenefic planet increases the good effects of theplanet/house aspected by it. The aspect of maleficreduces the good e f fec ts o f the p lanet /houseaspected by that planet.

Example :

(a ) Sun is aspec ted by ;up i te r

Jupi ter is the most benef ic pldnet. So aspect. o f Jup i te r i s .good. Th is w i l l inc rease the good

effects to be given by 'Sun' or reducel jhemale f ic e f fec ts to be g iven by 'Sun ' .

(b ) 'Sun ' i s aspec ted by Saturnln this case :

( i ) Sa turn w i l l cause reduc t ion in the benef ice f fec ts to be g iven by 'Sun '

( i i ) Sa turn w i l l resu l t in to enhancement o f themale f ic e f fe tcs to be g iven by 'Sun ' .

Note:The above examples are given just to explain thesimple effect of aspect of a benefic or a malefic planet.Here we have no t taken in to account many o thervaluable interpretations and points which are neccssaryto be considered before any conclusion is taken for theeffect of the aspects of a planet on other planets.

These can be discussed af ter understanding/learning the subject thoroughly.


9.3 Aspect of the planets have also a major ef fectin f ruct i f icat ion of the resul ts of any planet. The aspectare counted f rom s ign to s ign . They are good or badaccord ing to the

( i ) re la t ion o f the aspec t ing p lanet w i th thep lanet aspec ted .

( i i ) the malef ic or benef ic nature of the planet

" who is aspect ing.' Maharishi Prashara: According to him everyplanet has f u l l aspect on the seventh house f rom i tspos i t ion . (Example : Mars pos i ted in Mesha g ives f u l laspect on Tula Rashi , the seventh house f rom Mesha.where Mars is pos i ted) .

9 .4 SPECIAL ASPECT

Three planets in addi t ion to aspect on the seventhhouse have ful l aspect on some other houses too.These aspects are :

( i ) Mars has fourth and eighth aspect in addi t ionto the seventh.

( i i ) Jupi ter has f i f th and ninth aspect in addi t ionto seventh

( i i i ) Saturn has third and tenth aspect in addi t ionto seventh

The p lanets Mars , Jup i te r and Saturn be ingouter planetslrave two addi t ional aspects which arecons idered to be f u l l aspec ts , in compar ison to o therplanets.

9 .5 RAHU AND KETU

(A) The quest ion of the seventh aspect is not there,because one of them is in the seventh f rom theother. So the one and seven axis is always

137

covered by their posi t ions' The ef fect o l theiraxis covers both the houses occupied by them'The only di f ference is of their posi t ions whichcan be exp la ined as under :

Rahu i s pos i ted in M i thuna (Gemin i ) , Ke tu'

automat ical ly fa l ls in Dhanu (Sagi t tar ius) exact180" oppos i te to Rahu. So bo th Mi thuna andDhanu are af fected by their axis ( these twoplanets). We may say Rahu is aspect ing Dhanuor Ketu is aspect ing Mithuna by their seventhaspect, but i t is not required at a l l .

(B) There is di f ference due to posi t ion :

(a ) Rahu in Mi thuna is t rea ted as exa l ted 'Rahu's ef fect on Mercury 's s ign wi l l be di f ferentf rom the pos i t ion o f Ketu in Mercury 's s ign(Mi thuna)

(p) Ketu i f posi ted in Mithuna, the axis wi l l be

s"m" ef fect ing both Mithuna and Dhanu, but theposi t ion of Ketu in Mithuna is in a debi l i tat ionsign. Ketu's ef fect on Mercury (Budha - Wisdom)is better than the Rahu's ef fect on Mercury '

Note: There is di f ference of opinion regarding the

s ign o f exa l ta t ion o f Rahu and Ketu ' Rahu in Vr ish

{Taurus) is also t reated as exal ted. Ketu in Vr ishchika(scorpio) is t reated as exal ted. We may study both,

but in pract ice the resul ts are found more favourablewhi le t reat ing Rahu exal ted in Vr ish (Taurus) the s ign

of Venus.There is controversy on the aspects of Rahu and

Ketu. Dr. B.V. Raman has also ta lked about th is in

his book HTNDU PREDTCTIVE ASTROLOGY'

Some learned astrologers take Rahu's seventh

aspect and no aspect for (etu as Ketu is t reated as

bl ind. According to Venketeshwar Daivangya Rahu


and Ketu have ful l aspect on the seventh house only '

Some learned as t ro logers a re tak ing Rahu 's

fifth, seventh, ninth and twelfth aspects as f ull aspectsand fourth and eighth as 3/4th, th i rd and tel t th as 1/

Note:This may be usef ul in case the ef fect of aspectis seen from degree to degree.

9.9 SOME OF THE ASPECTS ARE TREATED VERYGOOD

1) l f a planet aspects i ts own sign by seventh orspec ia l aspec ts w i l l ce r ta in ly inc rease thesigni f icat ions of that house.

2) When benef ic planet aspects the other benef icplanet

3) When a yoga Karaka planet aspects the otheryoga karaka planet.(Here 'Yoga Karaka ' , means a p lanet wh ich is

lord of f i f th or ninth on one hand and also lord ofei ther fourth or seventh or tenth on the other hand.This aspect together wi th the resul ts of such planets,w i l l be taken up in la te r chapters ) .

The e f fec t o f the na tura l 'Benef ic 'and 'Ma le f i c '

p lanets cannot be ignored on the ground that theyare func t iona l benef ic and male f ic . In the advancedcourses the s tudents w i l l learn how to ca lcu la te the'Graha Ba la 'and 'Bhava Ba la 'wh ich on ly revea l theexact quantum of the strength of the planets andtheir aspects. Here i t is suf f ic ient to understand that


the aspect of benef ic planets is always favourablewhereas the aspect of malef ic planets is not alwaysfavourhble.

We bel ieve that the Jupi ter 's aspect spr inklesGanga Jal (holy water of r iver Ganges). l f any Bhavais aspected by Jupi ter , though the lord and the houseare both badly af f l ic ted, the nat ive is bound to getsome favourable resul ts in respect of that Bhava.

9 .10 ACCORDING TO WESTERN ASTROLOGY(As discussed by Dr. B.V. Raman in his book HTNDUP RT E DC tTtVE AST ROLOSY)

The aspects are reckoned from mutual longi tudinaldistances 6f p lanets. When one planet is at a certainnumber of degrees away f rom another body, they aresaid to be in asPect '

orbs ofAspect

Conjunc t ion : l f two heaven ly bod ies are in the g"same Long i tudes

Oppos i t ion : When the d is tance be tween twobod ies is 180 degrees

Trine: When the d is tance between two B"bodies is 120 degrees

Square: When the distance between two g"bod ies is 90 degrees

Sext i le: When the distance between the Z"two bodies is 60 degrees

Paral lel : Wherr two bodies have the same 1"dec l ina t ion (Krant i )

Decl inat ion: (which can be calculated according'

to Graha and Bhava Ba la)

The effect of an aspect is felt even if the planetsare not exact ly in the mutual d istances (ment ionedabove as between the two heavqnly bodies), thereforea so-called orbs of aspect (as shown above) are taken.

9.11 The in f luence o f an aspec t (e .9 . sex t i le ) s ta r tswhen the planets are f i f ty three degrees away fromeach other, gradual ly increases and wi l l be maximumat s ixty degrees. After that point starts decreasing t i l lthe difference is sixty seven degrees where it is nil.

The good or bad ef fects of aspects dependsupon the angle of aspects.The opposition (180 degrees)and square (90 degrees) are always said to be evi li r respect ive of the nature of the planets forming theaspects . The sex t i le (60 degrees) and the t r ine (120

degrees) are alwaYs good.

9.12 In Vedic Astrology the aspects are good orbad according to the nature and character ist ics ofthe planets. The aspects of the most benef ic planet

This is an absolutelywrong inference, according to Vedic Astrology andalso on the basis of the resul ts exper ienced by thelearned as t ro logers .

9.14 Let us discuss the ef fects of the planets on eachother :

A Malef ic ef fects

(1) Moon 's assoc ia t ion w i th Ketu

(2\ Mars asPect on the Moon and' (3 ) Saturn 's ten th aspec t on the Moon are a l l

said to be evi l aspects

B Benef ic ef fects(1) The aspec t o f Jup i te r i s the benef i c aspec t

which wi l l prove favourable for the Moon.

(2) The mutual aspect of the Sun and the Moonthough resu l ts in Fu l l Moon (g iv ing powerto Moon) .

'The na tu ra l ma le f i c Sa tu rn , though a YogaKaraka planet for Tula lagna being lord of fourth andf i f th bhava, g ives a male f ic aspec t on Moon. Theaspect is bad.

The natural benef ic planet Jupi ter being lord ofth i rd and s ix th i s a func t iona l ma le f i c , bu t be ing anatural benef ic is a saving grace upon Moon ( lord oftenth house and karaka of mother) .

Refer para 5.6

Saturn is the most favourab le p lanet in th ishoroscope, which wi l l p lay very important role in thel i fe of the nat ive. Saturn gets strength due to lordshipof fourth and f i f th (yoga karka) and also because ofexchanges between Mars (second lord) and Saturn( four th lo rd) . The pos i t ion o f Saturn has coveredsecond, four th , e igh th and e leventh houses .

9.15 The PAC (P means posi t ion A means aspectand C means con junc t ion) , i s a fo rmula dev ised toknow the ef fect of the planet and is very useful for

making pred ic t ions .

Example. 'Venus karaka of of seventh is posi ted inseventh . Venus lo rd o f lagna and e igh th house isposi ted in seventh. Venus is aspected by Mars lordof seventh and second. Venus is aspected by Jupi ter 'the lord of th i rd and sixth.

The aspects of a l l the planets on Venus, theposi t ion of Venus in Mesha and seventh house etc-are very important factors to be considered beforegiv ing any predict ions. This aspect is being discussedin detai l in the coming chapters of th is book.

10KEY PLANETS FOR SIGNS

10.1 In Vedic Astrology i ts descr ibed that the planetsand rash is have the i r ind iv idua l as we l l as combinedeffects on the inhabi tants of the earth. Their ef fectshave been seen having control on: ( i ) the l i fe eventsof the humar ' t beings ( i i ) on crops, rains, earthquakes( i i i ) pol i t ical atmosphere of a nat ion, etc.

There ef fects can be assessed by taking thep lane ts and the i r pos i t i ons in respec t i ve rash istogether, l t means the posi t ion of a planet or t ransi tof a planet in any rashi has i ts pecul iar ef fect ' Thecharacter ist ics of p lanets, rashis and of their karkas,have already been discussed in detai l .

10.3 RAJA YOGAS

When a planet of grouo( i ) jo ins the planet of group( i i ) orvice versa or if the lord of one of the houses of group(i)i s pos i ted in the house o f g roup( i i ) o r the re i s aconnection of aspects (Drishti Sambandha) betweenthem, i t becomes a Raja Yoga (an auspic ious Yoga)wh ich is bound to g ive good resu l ts . Th is i s c lear ,when the two lords one of Kendra (Vishnu) and theother Tr ikona (Lakshmi) jo ins, they show the graceof both Vishnu and Lakshmi. The nat ive gets the kr ipa(grace) blessings of Lakshmi Narayan. Due to th isYoga (means associat ion of one with the other) thenat ive wi l l have favourable resul ts in respect of thebhavas concerned as wel l as general prosper i ty inl i fe and en joy good luck dur ing the dasha per iod o fthese p lanets .

10 .4 YOGA KARKA

A p lanet wh ich is lo rd o f Kendra Sthana and a lso o fa Tr ikona Sthana (because of the dual lordship of thehouses) becomes Yogakaraka by i tsel f . This does notneed the jo in ing of other planet to produce Raja Yoga(ausp ic ious resu l ts )

Example:For:

(a) Taurus Lagna

(b) Libra Lagna

(c) Cancer Lagna

(d) Leo Lagna

10.5 KENDRADHIPATYA DOSHA

The benefic planets which are lords of the kendra sthanaare termed as planets carrying Kendradhipatya Dosha.

SqrDqa-q' rllqr q frvrfu TT sEI I(Parashara)

The benef ics by v i r tue of their lordship of Kendrawi l l not indicate benef ic ef fects. There is no ment iontha t they w i l l p roduce bad e f fec ts . Th is can beinterpreted that the benef ic planet which has a natureo f g iv ing good resu l ts , w i l l become neut ra l and w i l lnot g ive benef ic ef fects because that planet happensto be the lord of Kendra

Example:

Gemin i Lagna Jup i te r lo rd o f 7 th and 10 th

Virgo Lagna Jupi ter lord of 4th and 7th

Sagit tar ius Lagna Mercury lord of 7th and 1Oth

Pisces Lagna Mercury lord of 4th and 7th

E{r fusg'lgg: gqilw B,*tHn I(Parashara)

The malefics being lord of Kendra will not giveinauspicious results.The benefics and malefics beinglord of Trikona will always produce auspicious effects.

Lagna be ing lo rd o f Kendra and Tr i kona i salways supposed to give benef ic resul ts.

ar;t d;#rqerq fdi'\q gr{e-q IIn para 10 .4 i t has a l ready been c la r i f ied tha t

any planet which is lord of Kendra orTr ikona becomesYogakaraka planet and give auspic ious resul ts. Hencewhen Lagna is lord of both Kendra and Tr ikona, theausp ic ious resu l ts w i l l be ach ieved by the na t ivedur ing the per iod of the dasha of lagna lord.

Literat meaning of "Key" is an instrument far turningbolt of a tock. Key also means a system for sloving cipheror code. For prediction an astrologer has to trace thesensitive point in the horoscope from where the futurecan be unlocked. The Key planets help in finding outthe strengths and weaknesses of the birth chart. lnaddition to furnishing the above table the detaileddiscussion in respect of each rashi is given ab under:

Sun and Sa tu rn a re ausp ic ious . Mercury i s a lsoausp ic ious bu t to some ex ten t . Jup i te r has beentreated as i l l d isposed and Maraka because he ownsboth the evi l houses. Moon the 3rd lord, Venus ( lordof lagna and 6th house) being lord of 6th ( l ibra beingMooltr ikona sign for Venus) is maraka planet. Sun ist rea ted ausp ic ious a longwi th Saturn and Mercury ,Whi le sun is lord of Kendra only. Malef ic lord of kendrais not supposed to give inauspicous resul ts and i f hebeing lord of kendra is s imultaneously lord of t r ikonaa lso , becomes ausp ic ious . Here sun is the owner o fone house on ly perhaps th is i s the reason the sageParashara has said: gdt efiF{oTotl. Mercury is thelord of 2nd (Maraka sthana) and 5th (Tr ikona house),but has been defined somewhat good (erogqqq;1 11Mercury jo ins Saturn and Sun wi l l g ive benef ic resul tseffectively. Mercury alone may not be very auspicious.Mars being lord of 7th and 12th is termed as Marakabecause 7th is Maraka Sthana and the Mooltr ikonasign is of Mars 12th ( inauspic ious house) f rom Taurus.Moon too becomes Maraka when connected withother Maraka planets.

Jupi ter ( lord of 7th and 10th) and Saturn ( lord of 8thand 9th) i f they are together no benef ic resul ts ( the

11.17 ANALYSIS FOR LONGEVITY

1. Lagna is aspected by malef ic only. Here Marsis Lagna lord. The aspect of Mars is good forheal th. Because the aspect of the lord on i tsown house s t rengthens the Pk 'ava . But fo rheal th and longevi ty purpose this wi l l be t reatedas a malef ic aspect too.

2. Moon in 12th wi th Ketu and aspected by Saturn3 . Lagna lo rd Mars in 7 th aspec ted by Saturn

(Saturn being retrograde gives effect from Leo also)4 . there is ma le f i c in the 8 th f rom the Moon ( i . e .

Mars, which causes accidental death).5. There is no benef ic in kendra f rom Lagna except

Venus (Lord of 2nd and 7th a maraka) which iscombust. So no use of f rom benef ic in kendra.

6 . S imi la r i s the pos i t ion f rom the Moon. On lyLagna lord (Moon sign Lord) Jupi ter in Kendrawhich is again badly af f l ic ted by Saturn andRahu and between malef ics. Jupi ter is in Marsconstellation and Mars in Jupiter's constellation.

7. The Ayush karaka Saturn is again af f l ic ted byRahu.Refer to the pr inciples of longevi ty discussion

in ear l ie r paras . The d iscuss ion g iven above showsaff l ic t ion to the basic houses and lords is harmful forthe longevi ty. These af f l ic t ion are responsible for thereduct ion of l i fe span f rom ful l l i fe to medium l i fe span.

1 1 .18 MARAKA

Maraka planets are those which possess the powero f in f l i c t ing death . Death genera l l y occurs dur ing theper iods and sub-per iods o f p lane ts becomingmarakas for the nat ive.

,, r47flPredictive Astrology

From name i tsel f i t appears that the discussionwi l l be about the p lanets wh ich causes miser ies /death. For better understanding the topic, the readersare also advised to refer to the chapter on Key Planetswhere re fe rences about these p lanets have beentabu la ted (Para 10 .10 to 10 .23) .

For longevi ty we consider 8th (Ayusthana) and3rd (being 8th f rom 8th). The marakas cause reductionin longevi ty. This means an expendi ture/ loss whichresu l ts in reduc t ion in the per iod o f l i fe span. Theexpend i tu re / loss is represented by 12 th house. Inastrology 12th Bhava is termed as qqqrq (house ofexpend i tu re ) . So the 12 th to 8 th i s 7 th and 12 th to .3rd is 2nd. Therefore the houses of death are 2ndand 7th. Their lords become Marakas. Let us discussthese po in ts one by one.

11 .19 MARAKA POWER

(i) Out of the two 2nd and 7th, the 2nd is morepowerf u l Maraka than 7th.

( i i ) The 2nd house as Dhana Bhava (house o fincome) o r Van i S thana (house o f speech) i smore preferred by people. The wealth is usef ulwhen there is bo th 'hea l th and l i fe ' ( long l i fe )

-otherwise wealth is of no use. When doctor 'sadv ice i s no t to take r i ch food fo r hea l th ,reasons put restr ict ions on enjoying comfortsof h is belongings. l f the nat i 've is having thegrace o f Goddess Laxmi and Lord V ishnu i . e .Grace of Lakshmi Narayan (the combination ofKendra or Tr ikona both giv ing ef fect on DhanaSthana) the na t ive en joys sound hea l th andhapp iness . So is the case o f 7 th house, one islucky to have a happy marr ied l i fe i f 7th lordand house are s t rong. The o ther e f fec ts o fthese houses (2nd and 7th) wi l l be of Maraka.

1 8 5


( i i i ) The Lord of 2nd and 7th, the malef ics posi ted. in these house, ma le f i cs pos i ted w i th the lo rd

o f 2nd and 7 th houses e tc . a l l becomeMarakas.

( iv) The dasha of a benef ic planet related to the12th lord may give death/ t roubles.

(v ) ,The dasha o f s t rong male f ic may a lso causedeath .

(v i ) The lord of the 8th house dur ing i ts dasha maygive death to the nat ive.

(v i i ) The 12 th house is 12 th to Lagna, so the sameresul ts causing death of body (physical bodyrepresented by Lagna, the f i rst house)

(v i i i ) The l2 th .house is te rmed as Moksha Sthana(house of terminat ion of present l i fe) .

11.20 The Marakas in ascending orders are:

( i ) 12 th , 3 rd , 8 th , 7 th , and 2nd.

( i i ) The occupants and lo rds o f 6 th and 11 th a realso t reated as second grade ki l lers.

( i i i ) The lo rds and the p lanets pos i ted in S th , 9 th ,1Oth and Lagna are a lso the Marakas o f las tcategory.

11 .21 ROLE OF PLANETARY PERIOD

Unless the end of l i fe is there the dasha of 2nd and7th lord wi l l not become Maraka dasha. The lord of2nd may give wealth and the lord of 7th ( i f there isage of marr iage) may give marr iage.

l f the re i s dasha o f the lo rds o f theseMarakas thanas or ma le f i c p lanet bu t the l i fe i s there ,the nat ive may not meet death but face very di f f icul tsituations or disease or accident (q-sq qr rrggqtr-€).


11.22( i ) The dasha of a malef ic p lanet in the Antara(subper iod ) o f a bene f i c p lane t w i l l no tcause dea th , bu t in the subper iod o f ama le f i c p lane t ( though no t re la ted todashanath) may g ive death . Th is means abene f i c p lane t i f pos i ted w i th a ma le f i cp lanet , the male f ic p lanet dur ing h is ma jorper iod and subpe iod o f tha t benef i c p lanetw i l l no t g ive death . But the same male f icp lanet dur ing subper iod o f another ma le f i c( though tha t ma le f i c i s no t assoc ia ted w i thmajor per iod lo rd) w i l l cause death .

( i i ) The threat to longevi ty should be predicted, th rough the ev i l e f fec t a r i s ing f rom 8 th

house reckoned f rom the Lagna o r theMoon, th rough the ev i l e f fec t o f the s ignrepresent ing navamsha occup ied by thelo rd o f the 8 th house.

11 .23 In the example g iven in para 11 .15 the na t ivemet w i th an acc ident dur ing the dasha:

indicate wi t , wisdom, c leverness etc. , becauseof these qual i t ies the nat ive acquires power tospeak , has deep knowledge , can pursuade

. o thers , and ge t pos i t i on in l i f e . He a lsocommands respect too. Moon (Manas) chanchal(unsteadly) and Mercury (intell igence) has similarnature. So the nat ive becomes clever.

: Vipreet Rajayoga is a yoga which gives resul tswhich were otherwise not expected (evi l ef fects areexpected from these houses and their lords) f rom thatyoga , because o f the i r ce r ta in pos i t i ons in thehoroscope.

' l f cer ta in combina t ions o f p lanets was to g iveresul ts of a Rajayoga, but due to some factors thatyoga is defunct, we say Rajayoga bhang or cancellation


of Rajayoga. But when certain posi t ion of the planetwas to give bad resul t and due to placement of thatplanet in the chart that yoga is not in a posi t ion tog ive inausp ic ious resu l t s , w i l l be ca l led V ip ree tRajayoga.

In chart lV in para 13.5(2) of Shr i . Morar j i Desai ,the 12th lord Venus is in 8th and also lord of 6th Marsis in the eighth. These lords of 6th and 12th havecaused two VIPREET RAJYOGAS. The readers mayre fer to var ious d iscuss ion made on the bas is o fversion of c lassical texts.

For interpretat ion purposes, we cannot take i tas i t is . We have to analyse the complete horoscope.The associat ion of Mercury ( | and lV lord) and aspectof exal ted Jupi ter (7th and 1Oth lord) are also to beconsidered. Venus is 12th as wel l as Sth lord, involvedin exchange w i th the 8 th lo rd Sa tu rn (caus ingexchange of Sth and 8th lord).

Li terar i ly , the VIPREET RAJAYOGA can be saidto be formed by posi t ion of 6th, 7th and 8th lords inthe houses of each other ei ther jo int ly, several ly orinter exchanging houses. This is def ined as "giv inggood resul ts" . But the correct method would be tostudy the posi t ion of these planets in detai l wi th aopen mind.

The Mahadahsa was of Mercuryposited in lagna (yogakaraka and forming Rajayoga withthe Sun, the lord of 4th) Antara of Venus (VipreetRajayoga) lord of 1st and 6th and pratyantar of Mercury,

The trouble started in Mercury -Venus - Saturn(October 23, 1982 to Apr i l 4, 1 983). The MahadashaNath and Pratyantar Dashanath both yogakarka anda lso s t rong ly pos i ted in lagna and 5 th houserespect ively.

The damage w i l lbe repaired because Venus being lagna lord is bothkendra and tr ikona lord.

Vipreet Rajayoga can be understood as reversingthe present posi t ion, not permanent ly bad becausetwo yoga karka planets and lagna lord are involved.

We cannot forget the posi t ion of Mahadasha/An ta rdasha /Pra tyan ta r dasha f rom each o ther .Mercury has Venus in 12th (a house of exi t or changeor t ransfer) , Venus is in 8th f rom Saturn and Saturnis in 6th f rom Venus (Causing 6th/8th posi t ion saySadashtak) . 6 /8 pos i t ion causes t roub le , bu t theplanets involved were all yoga karka saved the nativefrom a permanent damage. l t can not be said thatonly Vipreet Rajayoga saved him.

Note:

(1 ) Ghat i ka lagna

Ghat ika lagna changes w i th every Ghat i (24minutes) counted f rom sunr ise. This can be calculatedas under :

( i ) Note the b i r th t ime in Ghat i and V ighat is .( i i ) Cons ider the Ghat is pas t as number o f rash is

or Ghat i lagna. The V ighat is d iv ided by 2 w i l lg ive degrees and minutes .

( i i i ) The produc t so ar r i ved in rash i , degrees andminutes be added to the longi tude of Sun as atsunr ise .

The exact Ghat ika lagna wi l l be found.

Example -

Bir th t ime = 30 ghat iand 30 Pal(v ighat i )

Sunr i se = S .40 A .M.

Sun 's long i tude = 5 '12o0 '

30 ghat is +12 = 6 rashis

30 Pa ls (V ighat is ) + 2 = 15 i .e . 15 degree thus no te6 = s igns or rash is 15 ' and add i t to long i tude o f Sunat sunr ise :

( i ) 6x30 = 180 '+15" = 195 '( i i ) 5x30 = 150 '+12o = 162"

Add the two

195 '+162" = 357"+30 = 11"27"0 'Ghat ika lagna is P isces 27 degrees .

(2 ) Hora Lagna

This lagna changes after 21/z Ghatis (60 minut-bs or


one hour) f rom sunr ise. l t can be calculated as under:

D i f fe rence be tween b i r th t ime and t ime o fsunr ise may be div ided by 2Vz and the quot ient insigns, degrees may be added to the longi tude of theSun. Th is w i l l g ive Hora Lagna.

Example -

( i ) Bir th t . ime = 30 Ghat i 30 Pal

( i i ) Sun 's long i tude = 5 '12"10 '

( i i i ) Bir th t ime in Ghat i and Palwhich is af ter Sunr ise,so deduction of t ime of sunrise is not required'

Bir th t ime + 2/z or 30.5 + 2.5 = 12.5 or 12'5"0' .

Add to the long i tude o f Sun = 5 '12"10 ' +12 '5o0 '= 5"1 7"1 0 '

(v i ) Hora lagna = 5"17"10 '

Nofe:The f igure arr ived at ( iv) i .e. d i f ference betweensunr ise & b i r th t ime, shou ld be added to thelong i tude o f the Sun, i f lagna is o f odd ras i(s ign), otherwise to the longi tude of lagna' Herethe simple method to calculate Hora lagna isi l lustrated.

In those days, these yogas were useful for thepredict ion given to the k ings. Today the meaning ofRajayoga cannot be interpreted that they wi l l make


the nat ive a k ing. These yogas, in the modern age ofdemocracy, can mean that the nat ive wi l l be conferredwi th a h igh pos i t ion in Government . He tnay becomeM.P. , M in is te r , Governor , Ch ie f M in is te r , P r imeMin is te r e tc .

l f the Rajayoga planets are c losely connectedwith the Sun and the Moon, pol i t ical power may bethe resul t . l f yoga is connected with Mars, the nat ivemay become a dictator, or a high ranking army of f iceror a commander- in-chief . Therefore, a thorough studyof planetary posi t ion and analysis of horoscope indetai l can help to f ind the resul ts of any yoga.

13. '12 (6) The Rajayogas formed by Kendra andTrikona lords can be as under -

LAGNA LORD

A ( i ) Lord of lagna and lord of 4th.

( i i ) Lord of lagna and lord of 7th.

( i i i ) Lord of lagna and lord of 1Oth (strongestkendra).

( iv) Lord of lagna and lord of Sth.

( i i i ) The 1Oth lord posi ted wi th the lords of Sth. or 9th produces the best Raj yogas.

E The pr inciples given for yogas connected withlagna lord in A(vi) above wi l l be appl ied in s imi lar


way treat ing 4th, 7th and 1Oth as base point .

F The connect ion of strong Tr ikona lords (Lakshmisthana) wi th strong Kendra lords (Vishnu sthana)gives the benevolence ol Lakshmi Narayana, thenat ive wi l l be enjoying al l comforts, fame, name,high posi t ion etc in l i fe. l f such yogas also jo inedby 2nd and 11 th they g ive wea l th e tc .

13 .12 (7 ) Ra jabhanga Yoga

There are yogas wh ich w i l l cause cance l la t ion o fRajayogas. Some of these yogas are given below forgeneral informat ion of the readers:

( i ) Jup i te r i n deb i l i t a t ion . Those p lane ts indeb i l i ta t ion wh i le one such p lanet i s in 2ndhouse and a malef ic in 1Oth house, destroysRajayogas.

( i i ) ln the above ( i ) s i tuat ion, i f there is no planetin exal tat ion.

( i i i ) Weak Moon in the last degrees of a s ign.

( iv) l f the Moon, lagna or both are not aspected beany planet.

house.

We can conclude that the strong position ofJupiter (important for steady and healthy progress,peace and tranquil ity), Sun and Moon (powers),Venus (Rajasic, a karaka for worldly pleasures andcomforts) and the 11th house is a must for a powertulRajayoga to give auspicious and full results.

l4GENERAL JUDGEMENT OF

HOROSCOPE

14.1 Mean ing o f Judgement

Th is i s a top ic wh ich w i l l he lp us to app ly our

knowledge obtained af ter reading the ear l ier th i r teen

chapters. By judgement we mean to form an opinion

regarding the strength of the horoscope or we can

'a -y tn " favourab Ieandun favourab le ind ica t ionsshown by the bir th chart of the nat ive. In the words

of Dr. Raman:-" ln the judgement of a horoscope an astrologer

wi l l come across many a pi t fa l l . Each house deals

wi th d i f fe ren t s ign i f i ca t ions and the same se t o f

combina t ions ob ta in ing in a par t i cu la r house might

inf luence the di f ferent s igni f icat ions comprehendedby the house, in different waYS""

14.2 ASTROLOGY A SUPER SCIENCE

Ast ronomy and Mathemat ica l As t ro logy are

sciences which help us to erect the bir th chart , to

f ind dasha balance at b i r th, d i f ferent vargas, Ashtaka

vargas etc. Predict ive part of Astrology is a super

sciJnce of qciences which helps us to read out the

e f fec to f thesep lane ta rycombina t ions .Wi thou t


seeing the face of the nat ive or knowing about himor his fami ly background, his past, present and futureeven ts can be p red ic ted . l f the re i s fa i l u re o fpredict ion the astrologer is blamed who in turn blamesthe nat ive for furnishing wrong data to him. This isnothing but an exercise of passing on the buck tosome one else.

Resul ts depend upon honestY

The sages have give;r many tools to test theauthenticity (correctness) of the data furnished. Someof these have been d iscussed in the chapter on"Rectification of birth charf". An astrologer must follow .the instruct ions given by Parashara in his book. l f hedoes so the chances of commit t ing mistakes shouldbe le 'ss, or i f he commits a mistake he wi l l accept hisfa i lu re hones t l y and w i th courage . S incere ty o fpurpose is essent ia l .

14.3 SUCCESS OF PREDICITION DEPENDS UPONGOD'S GRACE

The preparat ion of the chart , vargas, calculat ion ofdashas etc. and proper analysis of the chart are al lin the hands of an astrologer. There is somethingbeyond the reach of human beings which is cal ledkr ipa (grace of God) which helps in giv ing accuratepredict ion. The astrologer is s imply a messenger ofGod. He is cal led Daivagya because he knows howto tel l past , present and future of a nat ive or nat ion.The nat ive, before he approaches an astrologer forpredict ion, should pray to his dei ty or God or his ownlshta (Devata) qnd request Him that the astrologerto whom he is going to v is i t may be able to te l l h imabout h is fu tu re o r en l igh ten h im to see how fa r thenat ive can mould his f uture events or what wi l l happento the problem faced bY him.

or defame and fame is in the hands of God. One shouldnot be worried about one's fame, reputation and shouldnot do self praise. lf one does so it can be said withcertainty that one has no faith in Astrology and God.


Thirdly, he should not ut ter degrading wordsabout any other astrologer. An astrologer is cal led a'Daivagya' , which means one who knows the futureor des t iny . He is l i ke a 'Da iva ' . 'Da iva ' , has no reasonto ut ter bad words about other Daiva. The desires,anger and greed iness are d isas t rous and are thegates of hel l for an astrologers. These should beshunned.

14.6 JUDGEMENT OF HOROSCOPES

Due to the grace of great astrologer late Shr i M.S.Sitharamiah, whom I have heard while doing judgemento f horoscopes and my 'Guru ' who has taught meastrology, blessings and benevolence of my parentsand kindness of God, I have learnt some methods,o r a techn ique deve loped in me to ana lyse thehoroscopes. This part of Astrology is the most diff icultone. My lec tu res have been apprec ia ted by thestudents and audience. Hence these books are beforethe readers. The predict ion can be given only af terproper judgement of the horoscope and af ter analysisof the planetary combinat ions is carr ied out. As astudent of astrology I wi l l t ry to explain the propermethod to do analysis and judgement of horoscopes.My fai lures may be ignored treat ing me a student.The appreciat ion for the good expressions should bedone of my teachers. Here I wil l restrict my discussionto give a hint . The defects and mistakes may bepointed out to me for correct ing mysel f .

14.6 (1) lmportant steps to be borne in mind

At first sight o\ Oirtn chart:-

( i ) See the kei ldrasthanas (1st , 4th, 7th, and 1Oth)

(a) Whether there are planets posited or not

(b) Whether benefic planets are posited

(c) Whether malefic planets are posited

(d) Whether both malef ic and benef ic planetsare posi ted.

The horoscope which have planets in kendra isa strong horoscope. l f these planets are benef ic, i t . is

, all the better. The horoscope is strong due to beneficsbeing posited in kendra as wellthe beneifcs in kendrasafeguard the native f rom all Arishtas. lf malefics arepos i ted in kendra , they a lso s t reng then thehoroscope. The position of both malefic and beneficplanets together give mixed results.

- ( i i ) ' Now check the posi t ion of t r ikonasthanas. l foccupied, the nat ive's chart is capable of g iv ingfavourable results. The horoscope has strength.

(i i i) Gheck the yogas and Rajayogas present in thechart .

(iv) The awasthas of Planets.

(U) The dasha balance at birth, and the order ofthe dashas which the native is supposed to getdur ing his l i fe t ime.

Analyse the posi t ion of lagna, lagna lord and theMoon -

(a) l f a l l the three are wel l posi ted, aspectedby benef ics and ausp ic ious p lanets , thenat ive w i l l have sound hea l th .

(b) l f any one of them is af f l ic ted, some problemcan be there.

(c) l f two of them are af f l ic ted, may be havingweak heal th.

( i i ) Analysis of the fourth house

The analysis of a l l the twelve bahvas should be donein the same way as descr ibed here . Le t us takeanother examPle of the 4th house -

(a) l f the lord of the 4th house and the fourthhouse (bhava) both are wel l posi ted, therewi l l be happ iness in the fami ly , happ inessf rom mother , the na t i ve w i l l have land ,property, vehic les and good educat ion etc 'l f t he re i s a f f l i c t i on the resu l t s w i l l bereversed. l f the lo rd o f the 4 th i s weak,combus t , deb i l i t a ted and a f f l i c ted - bymalef ics, a l l s igni f icat ions of the 4th housewi l l be badlY af f l ic ted.


Karakas help to di f ferent iate the ef fect ofp lanets on the house i .e . the bad resu l ts w i l l'be

in respect of which event of l i fe or inrespec t o f what th ing .

(b) Under the above circumstances, there is agreat problem before us. Had there beenbenef ic ef fects or auspic ious planets werepos i ted w i th the 4 th lo rd and a lso in thefour th house, i t cou ld be eas i l y p red ic tedfor good educat ion , ava i lab i l i t y o f house,veh ic les , happ iness f rom mother e tc .

In such si tuat ion weneed the help of karakas, The karakas forthe 4th house are -

( i i i ) Mercury - Educat ion

(c ) Say there is a f f l i c t ion to Moon. We caneasi ly say t rouble to mother or to the heal thof the nat ive. Here also the learned sageshave advised to study the fol lowing pointsto have deep analysis -

( i ) See 4th f rom 4th ( i .e. 8th house)

l f bo th these a lso ind ica te s im i la rresu l t s , the p red ic i t i on abou t themother can be given accordingly.


(d) To make the prediction fool proof, the Sageshave dev ised d iv i s iona l char ts . In theprdsent case under study we need to study

-the Dwadashamsha Chart.' l f in allthe cases f rom (a) to (d) a similar positionis indicated, the prediciton given wil l be accurate one.

14 .7 USE OF DASHAS INTHE JUDGEMENT OFHOROSCOPE

After judgement of the horoscope or af ter analysingthe posi t ion of a l l the twelve bhavas in a s imi lar-manner as discussed in para 14.6, the astrologer isto study the dasha order.

The dasha i .e. the Mahadasha and Antardasha' running wil l indicate the events l ikely to happen duringthat particualr period. lf there are powerful Rai4rogaspresent in the bir th chart , but the dasha per iod ofthe planets involved in the Rajayoga does not comeduring the l i fe of the nat ive, there wi l l not be ful lresu l ts ava i lab le to the na t ive fo r tha t par t i cu la rRajayoga. Simi lar wi l l be the case i f there is anyArishta yoga. Unless there is a dasha of the planetinvolved in any Arishta yoga or Rajayoga, the nativewill neither suffer nor enioy on account of such yogas.

There wi l l be minor per iods of Antardasha' ofthe planets involved in Rajayoga which wil l give someeffects of these yogas.

ANNEXURE V(Chapter 13)

Yogas

Without the help of yoga (support) a man cannotbe successful in lite. He may be strong, learned andcapable in all respects but without the help of some one,the goal cannot be achieved. Man is a social animal. Tokeep the body strong and in workable condition oneneeds to do exercise or yoga. To have the grace of Godone needs yoga sadhna. There are social bindings. Inastrology, the combination of planets give brightness tothe results of planetry effects. There are many bookson astrological yogas but no where the comments abouthow the yogas are formed ? How much result that yogaswill be able to produce ? When these give their results?What are the reasons behind the formation of theseyogas ? The learned readers have to find the answeron the basis of their results given in the classical textswith reference to the present time. Sages have givennames to these yogas on the basis of results of theseplanetary configurations found by them.

There are manytypes of relations between the plan'ets.This relationship has been given the name of Yoga.Some of the relations are :

(r) Exchange of houses. Sometimes the planetsexchange their signs such as the Sun in Aries and Marsin Leo or Jupiter in Aquarius and Saturn in Pisces.

(r) Placement of planets in same sign i.e. con-junction. Jupiter and Saturn in Pisces or Aquarius orthe Sun and Mars in Aries.


(rl) Mutual aspects. One planet aspecting otherplanet and also aspected by the later. Jupiter in Ariesand Saturn in Libra or Surr in Cancer and Mars in Cap-ricorn. (Samsaptam aspects). Mars aspecting from Pis-ces to Saturn in Gemini and Saturn giving tenth as-pects on Mars.

(iv) Connection between the planets being pos-ited in kendra from each other. As in (irr) above there ismutual aspects and also they are in kendra from eachother.

(v) Connection due to trikona position betweenthe two planets.

(rz) Single aspect. A planet aspecting other planet,but the later does not aspect the former.

( vir) Sooksh ma (Relation) Sambandha.

(a) Exchange of Nakshatra. A planet being in theconstellation of other planet, which in turn is in his con-stellation.

(b) Exchange of Navamsas. Two planets in eachother's Navamsha.

The above combinations show that the planet getsstrength or support from other planet provided they arenot inimicalto each other.

(if No planet leaves its natural characteristics.

(rD Lord of every bhava is to produce the results ofthat bhava, though there may be modification to the re-sults due to association of other planet or by position ofthe lord concerned in other bhava. This is because thelord in question is supposed to give the results.

(a) Own natural character.

(b) Of his own house due to lordship.

(c) Of the house where it is posited.

(d) Of the planet associated with either by conjunc-tion or aspect.

(e) Even of the planet in whose navamsha ornakshatra it is posited.

This means the responsibilit ies are enhanced byposition in other's house/association with the lords ofother houses.The planet posited in own house can giveresults of his own house more comfortably provided itis not weak.

(iv)Yogas/planetary positions in the birth chart in-dicate the probabilities of the events to take place. Sta-tus of the native and surroundingsicircumstancesaround him also affect the prediction.
