Jyotish Visharada

Model AnswersQ.No. 1 : What do you understand by Vedha? Does it really

have any impact?

Answer:

(8) VEDHA:

Vedha means obstruction. When a planet is transiting through anauspicious sign from natal Moon, is subjected to Vedha by anotherplanet. It means the good effects ofthe planet will be checked.

~ The Vedha points are very important in transit predictions.

Sun and Saturn, Mercury and Moon do not cause Vedha of eachother.

SUN: In transit, the Sun is auspicious in 3rd, 6th, l Oth and l lthposition from natal Moon, ifnot subject to Vedha. If SUN is in 3rd andany planet (Except SATURN) in 9th will cause Vedha and spoil theauspiciousness of SUN. Others points are 12,4,5.

MOON: It is auspicious in houses 7, 1, 6, ll, 10 and 3 fromNatal Moon. Any planet (other than Mercury) is in 2, 5, 12, 8, 4, 9respectively shall cause Vedha.

MARS: Mars is auspicious in 3, 11, 6 from NATAL MOONand Vedha will be caused by any planet in houses 12, 5 or 9 respectively.

II' MERCURY: Mercury is auspicious in 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11positionfrom NATAL MOON and Vedha can be caused by any planet (otherthan Moon) if it is in 5,3,9, 1, 7, 12 houses from Natal Moon.

JUPITER: Jupiter is auspicious in 2, 5, 7, 9 and II and ifVedha comes from 12,4,3, 10 and 8 houses from Natal Moon.

VENUS: Venus is auspicious in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, II and 12from NATAL MOON by any planet in 8, 7, 1, 10, 9,5, l I, 6 and 3houses respectively will cause Vedha.

SATURN : Saturn is auspicious in 3, 11 and 6 by Vedha to it iscaused by any planet (other than SUN) in 12, 5,9 houses respectively.

(b) VIPREET VEDRA:

When a planet moves into any house from where it cause Vedha,let us say SUN is 12th from NATAL MOON, it will give bad results.But if the corresponding house 6th in this instance be occupied by any

3

planet (other than SATURN), bad results will be checked.This is calledVipreetha Vedha.

In normal practice, the sure result are given by planet in transit

with respect to its position from NATAL MOON. VEDHA to these,

means expected results has to be observed but with some reservations.

The result do not flow in either case on expected lines exactly.

(c) NAKSHATRA VEDHA :

There is another type ofVedha known as Nakshatra Vedha. This

type ofVedha caused by certain planets in transit in certain Nakshatra

counted from Natal Nakshatra position ofanother planet. These are 16

hi all (Two each for the 7 planets and 2 jointly for nodes)

NATALNAKSHATRA Transit in Vedha causingoccupied by transit by

SUN 9th NAK RAHU/KETU

SUN 15th NAK KETU

MOON 7th NAK MARS

MOON 12th NAK SUN

MARS 4th NAK MERCURY

SATURN 9th NAK SUN

SATURN 12th NAK JUPITER

RAHUIKETU 9th NAK MOON

RAHUIKETU 13th NAK MARS

Similarly, there is another way of seeing Vedha i.e., by Sarvato

Bhadra Chakra in which the transit planets are positioned in the various

Nakshatras in which they are transiting and their, left, right, opposite

aspects are seen to see if they will cause malefic effects by Vedha on

Janam Nakshatra, Janam Rashi, Janam Tithi, First word of Name and

Day of birth.

Answer: The result of the horoscope (promised)is frutified during

12

their Dasha periods. But the same will be delivered by the transit ofplanets

I , If Jupiter transit over Trikona from radical Jupiter, the personWIll acquire wealth, children, happiness, pleasures from religiousceremonies.

2, If Jupiter transit Trikona position from radical Venus, marriagewill take place.

3. If Jupiter transit Trikona position from radical Mercury, he willget good education, career.

4. If Jupiter in Trikoka to radical Saturn, he will get favour (royal)recognition, wealth, promotion in service.

5. Jupiter in Trikona from radical Rahu willgive success in litigation.

6. If Rahu transit any three bad Nakshatras (3rd, 5th, 7th) fromJanam Nakshatras, the native will perform funeral.

I,

7. Transit of Saturn in Trikona from Rahu will give loss of wealththrough kings, enemies.

Similarly, Transit of Saturn, on Natal moon cause Sadhe Satiwhich causes mental agony to the native. Similarly Saturn whiletransiting,

l. Sun Cause deterioration of Father health.

2, Mars Humiliation.

3, Mercury hindrance in education.

• 4 Jupiter hindrance in religion pursuits.

S Venus wife's health problem.

6 Saturn physical ailment.

7, Rahu physical ailment.

S, Ketu Hospitalization.

The transit of slow moving planets gives clues to the timing ofevents, Hence the most of events are timed during the transit of Saturnand Jupiter,

According to latest research, the combined results of transit ofSaturn and Jupiter is used for timing of events, For timing ofmarriage,it IS seen when Saturn and Jupiter transit over Lagna, Lagna lord, 7thand 7th lord oftwo persons (Male and Female), the marriage take place.

In the above, SATURN denotes the time (Kaal) of fruitificationand Jupiter shows bencficncss and Sanctions the occurrence ofthe events.

13

house of short journey, travel within country.

house of long journey travel outside the country.

Professional house. If the 10th lord combines withabove mentioned lord or house, travel abroad forcompany job is expected.

The 10th house should be a movable sign and foreign planet, likeRahu ifpresent would give travel to foreign country on that particularDasha.

According to Satyacharya-7th house is the house of travel ofall types.

Sarvartha Chintamani-8th house moon.in its dasha would giveforeign travel. If it is with the 10th lord then the travel would be on thebasis of company job. .

Manasagri-Saturn in 8th house will give foreign travel withoutsatisfaction.

The lagna, lagna lord, l Othlord are in the movable sign there willbe a foreign travel on account of profession.

Karaka for Foreign Traval

Shukra-Shukra should be well placed or else he will not relishthe journey as Venus is the luxury planet.

Rahu-The outcaste planet give separative nature andmaterialistic planet, Mars will give foreign travel regarding placement.

From the above, it is concluded that the role of transit in timingevents is very important. But the result will fruitify during the Dasha inwhich the result is promised, in the Birth Chart. Hence both Dasha andTransit are important for timing of events.

For example the marriage will be ceremonised when Jupiter willtransit radical Venus, 7th lord and lagna in the favourable dasha andantardasha.

However, Dasha effect will get modified to some extent accordingto position ofthe Dasha lord in transit or the position ofother transitingplanets vis-a-vis the dasha lord in birth chart.

If Mercury is in 2nd house with other evil planet aspected byMoon will have bad saving.

Ifthe Ashtaka Varga Bindies of 12th house is more than the 2ndhouse then the person will have disturbed finances.

The sun in the 2nd aspected by Saturn is not favourable for steadyfinance.

If the 12th lord is present in the 2nd house the person will havemore expenditure leading to disturbances.

The combination of lords of the 2nd and 11th in the 6th whenmalefics are placed in 2nd.

A weak moon in the 2nd aspected by Mercury causes loss ofinherited wealth.

Lagna is Gemini in the mid cusp at 150 and the lord of lagnaMERCURY placed in 9th house Aquarius an ODD sign-Mercury isintelligent.

In Aquarius, Moon along with the lagna lord Mercury is placed.This indicates the native is intelligent; and is a thinking person such asscientist etc., as moon represents mind. Lagna lord position is good(9th House) Dharma Sthana. The lagna is strong. Hewever, there is nobenefic aspect to lagna or lagna lord.

Considering Moon lagna and Surya lagna, Moon lagna is strongas Aquarius lagna lord is in 9th exalted and retrograde.

In Navamsha Chart Moon is in Libra and aspected by Mars andVenus, Mars masculine planet. Lagna lord Mercury is in 2nd fromNavamsha lagna, debilitated. This infers lagna is weak.

In Parashar System, marital life is judged from 7th house andNavamsha Chart.

22

Rahu in the 7th house make the native unconventional. In otherwords, the native has peculiarity in the married life. Such as marriageofinter-east, or husband short, wife tall etc. Rahu and Mars are enemies,the position of Rahu and Mars in 7th indicates some problem in themarital life.

Rahu also aspects 5th house where Kalatra Karaka Venus isposited.

Lagna is also aspected by Rahu. This confirms that Venus andLagna is aspected by a malefic planet etc., the family life problems.

Since this is female chart, position of Mars and Jupiter shouldalso be considered. Here too Mars with Rahu, Jupiter is in 12th,(Expenses house) which is not good.

Lord of 8th (Longivity) Saturn is placed in 5th house aspected byVenus from 11th house-Good.

Bhagya Sthanadhipathi, lord of 9th also Saturn in 5th houseaspected by benefic planet Venus indicates Bhagya.

Retrograde Saturn aspect over Mars, Rahu and Venus who isdispositor of9th house creates sadistic pleasure as Saturn is a sadisticplanet in nature. It is to be noted Saturn is exalted is also retrograde.Saturn and Rahu are friends 3rd house (7th from Lagna) is havingconnection with Venus-indicates more trouble.

Saturn is retrograde in Sth, this also gives the beneficlMaleficresult of 4th house too.

.. When Saturn operates from 4th there is no aspect to 7th house.When it operate from 5th it aspects Lagna-expecting problems.

Mars and Rahu in 7th aspccted by retro Saturn indicates accidentas Mars and Saturn combination indicates suddenness. There may belate marriage as Saturn is slow, Mars represents blood indicates bloodrelated problem.

Moon indicates mind and intelligence. Moon also indicates periods(menses) in female chart.

Rahu Ketu axis separates Mars and Venus indicating trouble inmutual understanding.

Considering Mars and Jupiter as this is a female chart, Marsassociation with Rahu, Jupiter in 12th is not good.

Jaimini : Here the marriage life is judged from Atma Karaka,Dara pada and Upapada, 7th house, Navamsha, Karakamsha Lagna.

23

In Navamsha Chart lagna lord is aspected by Mars, Venus andhens week.

Moon Dara Karaka in Jaimini Lagnalord Saturn own house hencestrong.

It can be seen both Parashari and Jairnini :

Mars aspected by Saturn

As per Somnath whenever Ketu is in 1agna or trine in Nav~sha

the native is cunning and repulsive.

j,' Dara Karaka (wife), is in Kumba associated with benefic planetMercury aspected by Venus benefic Kalatra Karaka.

This infers spouse is gentle and obedient. Lagna lord Mercury,Sun, Argala is formed by Jupiter and Mars. But Mars Argala is notformed due to the position of Rahu.

In Navamsha, Dara Karaka is aspected (Jaimini aspect) bymalefic. This again infers misunderstanding betweenthe couple as shownin Parashari.

Saturn (R) aspect Venus, Mercury and Jupiter indicates benefic­happy married life.

An important point is the Dara Pada is aspected by Dara Karakaindicating longevity.

Karakamsha Lagna and Dara Karaka is place 6th/8th indicatingfriendship.

WidowHood

In Navamsha Sun in trine indicates divorce or widow hood.

Moon in Rashi, Lagna, Vamada Lagna or Athma Karaka indicateswidow hood.

Uppada there is Sun, indicates divorce. The divorce is sudden,hence in Chara dasha of Rahu, Ketu, Mars or Saturn may bring the

divorce. Rahu is the separator.

The Chandra Dasha starts from Gemini in the counter clockwisefrom lagna. During Makara Chara Dasha, (Rahu posited) (from Gemini=8+ 11+8+10+2+3=42 yrs.) there is possibility ofdivorce. Here Saturnalso aspects, hence chances of separation is more.

24

Conclusion :

Wife is dashing nature with head strong. Married life is notcongenial.

Q.No. 10: Short Notes

(8) Famine Combinations

Famine depends upon weather conditions. Ifthere is no rain there. is no growth ofvegetation which is essential for human and animal life.

Q.12 : Write short not on :(a) Combinations for Plane Crash

Generally accidents are indicated from the conjunction or aspectof malefic planets. If Saturn and Mars associate, placed in Kendra orTrikona position, accidents are indicated. This has to be analysed fromthe annual chart and national chart of the place.

If Saturn and Mars are adverse, in these charts we can predictaccident.

Vayu Tatwa sign is the signification for air crash. When Saturncombine in Vayu Tatwa Nakshatra, accidents occur.

Koorma Chakra is advantageous for this purpose.b) Storm

Storm is formed due to wind and rain. The planets Saturn Jupiter,Moon rainy planets are the significators.

Sun and Moon are the potential significator for the variation ofatmosphere weather change.

Disturbance on Sun affect different parts of Earth.In the annual chart planets in Airy sign and Airy Stars afflicted

by Rahu, Mars and Saturn causes storm. Sun and Moon positioninterference with Mars, Saturn are the main significators.

Saptanadi Chakra and Koorma Chakra can be used for thisprediction.

Saturn is a malefic planet. Mars and Saturn combination causes

bus accident, Eighth House is a Dushta Sthana. In the annual chart,

planets over earthy signs earthy Nakshatra and the concerned house is

afflicted, bus accidents can happen. Koorma Chakra is used for this

purpose.

Q.No. 13 : Write short notes:

a) Ishtaphala and Kashtaphala

The Ishtaphala or Kashtaphala indicate the nature of results tobe had in the Dasha or Antar Dasha of a planet. If the Ishta (Good)

Phala of a planet is more than its Kashta (bad) Phala the planet will bemore helpful in its Dasha or Antar-Dasha, If the Kashta Phala is more

than the Ishta Phala, it indicates that the planet is not helpful in this

period and may give adverse results. The formulae for Ishta Phala and

Kashta Phala are :

Ishta Phala =

Kashta Phala =

-.J Uchcha Bala x Chesta Bala

-.J (60 - Uchcha Bala) (60 - Chesta Bala)

Determination of Ishta Phala : The Ishta porton of a planet's

influence is obtained thus the Uchcha Bala (Exaltation Strength) of a

planet is multiplied by its Chesta Bala (Motional Strength) and then the

Square root of the product extracted.

Determination of Kashta Phala :The Square root ofthe product

of(60 - Uchcha Bala) and (60-Chesta Bala) gives the amount ofKashta

influence in Shashtiansas.

b) Natural Strength and its significance? Why it is constant for

all horoscopes.

Natural Strength (Naisargikabala) of each planet has a natural

Strength, irrespective of its position. The Sun is considered to be the

most powerful planet followed by the Moon, Venus, Jupiter, Mercury,

Mars and Saturn.

27

Naisargika Balas of the planets will be in the following way.These Bala's are unchangeable:

The Sun = 1.000 Rupa's 60 Shashtiamsas

The Moon = 0.857 Rupa's 51.43 Shastiamsas

The Mars = 0.286 Rupa's 17.14 Shastiamsas

The Mercury = 0.429 Rupa's 25.70 Shastiamsas

The Jupiter = 0.571 Rupa's 34.28 Shastiamsas

The Venus = 0.714 Rupa's 42.58 Shastiamsas

The Saturn = 0.143 Rupa's 8.57 Shastiarnsas

If two planets have equal amount of Shadabala's it is only theNaisargika Bala which plays a decisive role in relation to their greateror lesser strength. This Bala is acquired by a planet naturally accordingto his Luminosity and it is fixed for every planet.

Naisargika Bala : This is the natural strength that each Grahapossesses. The value assigned to each depend upon its luminosity Ravithe brightest of all planet's has the great Naisargika strength whileShani the darkest has the least Naisargika Bala. This strength is fixedand holds good in all.

This strength depends upon the luminosity of the planets. It isconstant and same for alI the horoscopes.

c) Explain the Significance of Bhava Bala's?

Each Bhava has been assigned certain events or functions. Thefirst house is known as Tanu Bhava. It represents the Body of theindividual including complexion etc. The II Bhava represents wealth,family etc., if a Bhava is strong the native will enjoy the indictions of

.the Bhava fully. Ifthe Bhava is weak, its native will not be in a positionto enjoy the significations of the Bhava.

The strength of a Bhava is determined by :

(i) Bhavadhipathi Bala i.e., the strength of the lord of the Bhava.

(ii) Bhava Dig Bala

(iii) Bhava aspect strength or Bhava Drishti Bala

(i) Bhavadhipathi Bala : It is the strength ofthe Bhava or the lcrdof the Rashi in which Bhava Madhya falls.

(ii) Bhava Dig Bala : It is the strength obtained by the various Bhava'sdue to their Bhava Madhya being in different Rashis.

28

The~~ hubooll.,ified intofour types ofRubi'.namely:

(a) Nara Rashi's (Human signs) are represented by Mithuna(Gemini), Kanya (Virgo), Tula (Libra) first half of Dhanu(Sagittarius) and Kumbha (Aquarius).

If the Madhya of Ascendant falls in Nara Rashi the Ist houseacquire a strength of60 Shashtiamsas (one Rupa) and it graduallyloses strength @ 10 Shashtiamsas per Bhava till it is reduced toZero in the VII Bhava if the Bhava Madhya of VII is in a NaraRashi it will have Dig Bala as Zero.

(b) Jala Chara Rashis : Watery or aquatic Rashis are known asJalachara Rashis. They are Karkataka (Cancer), Second half ofMakara (Capricorn) and Meena (Pisces) if the Bhava Madhya offourth house falls in these Rashi it will get 60 Shashtiamsas andin X it will got 0 Shashtiamsas the Dig Bala is reduced as suchRashi's are always from IV Bhava like the Nara Rashi's.

(c) Chatushpada Rashi's or Quadruped Rashi's : There are Mesha(Aries), Vrishabha (Taurus), Simha (Leo) Second half of Dhanu(Sagittarius) and Ist halfofMakara (Capricorn) ifthe Xth BhavaMadhya falls in these it will get 60 Shashtiamsas. The strength isreduced as it goes away from Xth Bhava reaches near to IV Bhava.

(d) Keeta Rashis or Insect Sign: There is only one Rashi namelyVrishchika (Scorpio) which is Keeta Rashi when it is in the VIIBhava Madhya the VII Bhava acquires a strength of 60Shashtiamsas and if l st Bhava Madhya falls in it the 1st Bhavawill have zero Dig Bala. The Dig Bala's of the Bhava's whoseBhava Madhya falls in Keeta Rashi's goes on increasing by 10Shashtiamsas per house as it is away from 1st house.

Dhava Drishti Bala or Bhava's aspect strength:

(a) Mercury is always benefic for Bhava Drishti Bala irrespective ofits association.

The Drishti Bala's ofMercury and Jupiter including special aspectare taken as obtained while that ofother planets are divided by 4,i.e., only 1/4th Drishti Bala over the Bhava Madhya is taken.The Shubhas is taken positive while the Subha Drishti Bala's dueto aspect ofAshubhas is taken Negative. The sum total will theDrishti Bala on a particular Bhava.

Total Bhava Bala is obtained by adding these Bala's ofa Bhava.

29

Q.No. 14 : Why Rahu-Ketu are not considered in Shadbalacalculation?

In classical works on Hindu Astrology only Seven Graha's(planets) are recognised and are spoken ofas the Sapta (seven) Graha's.They are as follows :

Ravi or Surya (the Sun)Some or Chandra (the Moon)Mangal or Kuja (Mars).Budha (Mercury)Guru or Brihaspati (Jupiter)Shukra (Venus) andShani (Saturn)

Only in later works, Rahu (the ascending Node ofthe Moon) andKetu (the Descending Node of the Moon) are mentioned. These aremerely ecliptic points. As in Modem Astrology each ofthe Sapta Graha'sis the Adipati (lord) of one or two of the twelve Rashi's (sign) of theBhava Chakra (Zodiac). Uranus and Neptune are not mentioned in Vedicastrology. Rahu and Ketu are the nodes ofthe Moon. When Moon crosses

. the ecliptic while going from South to North of the ecliptic it is theascending node of the Moon which is called Rahu. The latitude of theMoon at Rahu is Zero and is on the increase from the negative (South)to the positive (North). While crossing the ecliptic going from North toSouth i.e., the descending node of Moon is called Ketu. Rahu and Ketuare not physical planets but are the points on the plane ofecliptic wherethe Moon crosses it.

This is the reason, for calling these two as Chhaya Graha i.e.,Shadowy planets. At these points the Moon aad Sun get eclipsed onPoomima or Amavasya respectively.

These are also called dragon's Head and dragon's Tail. Thesepoints are not stationery but take about 18 years 220 days i.e., 18.60years in making a revolution around the Earth. This Motion is nonuniform like all planets and above in the average period of Motion.Their Motion is in the reverse direction so they are said to be having aretrograde motion at the average or mean rate of about 19.36° eachyear or about 8" an hour. They have true or mean longitudes.

(b) What is Graha Yudha? Explain.

When two planets are within one degree, there is a Graha Yudha.Only Ravi and Chandra do not enter into war. Add Sthanabala, digbala

30

and Kalabala (upto Horabala) for each planet involved in this war.Note the differences between the two subtracting the later one. Dividethe differences between by the diameters of the discs. The resultingquotient must be added to the Kalabala of the victorious planet anddeducted from that of the defected one. The diameters are Kuja 9"4,Budha 6"6. Guru 190"4, Shukra 16"6 and Shani 158"0.

The planet having less degrees of longitude normally wins inplanetary war.

Q.No. 15 : Write short notes on any four:

a) Bhavath Bhavanam Concept:

We have to understand the principles underlined in the abovestatement or empirical law.

Bhavathbhavam means we have to count the number of housesfrom that Bhava as it is from the lagna. Like 3rd from 3rd, 4th from4th, 5th from 5th and 6th from 6th and so on. The respective lord isgood in Aspect occupying the same house or occupying a good house,can give good results to that bhava. On the other hand that is occupiedby a malefic or if the lord is occupying a debilitation house or in adusthana or in enemy kshetra or in negatie avastha, it cannot give goodresults.

Here we have to observe that the bhavathbhava principle is notapplied from the lagna only but take that house as Lagna and count thehouse.

b) What are significations of 7th House? How Mars aspect on7th House affects the married life of a native?

Seventh house denotes marriage partner; life partner and businesspartner of persons. Except one's family members the seventh houserefers to all those with whom the native contacts or enter into contractor agreement or even quarrels litigation and so on. Further 7th House isa: Marakashtana. Denotes mother's property, one's influence and honourin foreign countries and public relations. Tells, who the theif is one'sown profession in international trade and so on. Independent Businessfor people born in common sign 7th House is Badhakasthana.

The 7th House mainly refers to marriage. Wife or husband andmarital happiness. Mars aspecting the 7th House the Native marriagewill be unhappy and in the 7th House he becomes a marakesh for thenative and bestowing boldness strength and hot headedness to the partner.

31

None of this qualities in the 7th House are conducive to a happy andhealthy family life.

Mars is dreaded in I, 4, 7, 8 houses/positions because it givesvery undesirable results. According to Muhurtha Sangraha Darpana.

Mars in these places ofbrides chart destroys her husband and inthat ofthe bridegroom destroys his wife ifthese be the results everybodywould naturally be scared of Mars. The same Muhurtha SangrahaDarpana suggests the cure ofthis evil.

IfMars occupies the inauspicious places in debility, Combustion,or in retrograde motion or in an enemy camp his evils are mitigated.There are many other factors which mitigate the evils of Mars.

c) Explain the importance of Vimshopaka Bala?

Vimsopaka Bala : Once all the six types of strength are foundout, tabulate them and find their total strength. Divide the strength ofeach planet by 4 we will get Vunshopaka Bala.

A planet with more than 15 units is Prakrami (extra strong). Aplanet with strength between 10 and 15 units is Poorna Bala (Fullstrength). A planet where strength is between 5 and 10 units is MadhyaBala (medium strength). A planet with less than 5 units is Alpa Bala orweak.

Vimshopaka Strength (Brihat Parasara Hora)

Lagna, Hora, Drekkona, Navamsha, Dwadashamsha andTrimshamsha are the shadavargas. The Vimshopaka point 20 point.Strength of these are respectively 6, 2, 4, 5, 2, 1 with the addition ofSapthamansha. These are the saptavarga's mthe Saptavrgas. TheVunsohpak strength is respectively are 5, 2, 3, 2Y2, 4Y2, 2, I. These aresthool or Gross strength. The subtle strength of the planets is to beknown by their exact positions.

d) Explain the importance of D-I0 Dashamsha Chart :

Dashamsha is the divisional chart for the study of professionalaffairs ofa native. New trends in theastrological applications re emergingin the fields of human resources development. Scanning of Macroenvironment for investments setting up ofnew offices and joint venturestiming of operations, development of leadership skills, concentrationfor studies, seeking help for emotional stability, seeking help for chronicdiseases and analysis of aptitudes of children etc.

The most pronounced effect on a native is choice of career, is

analysed from the 10th house and the planet posited in lOth House. Ifmore than two planets are posited then their combined effects should beconsidered. If Mars and Mercury are in the tenth house, Mercury rulesyoung people and it likes to play. Mars is a Kshatriya or belongs to awarrior class who likes to show its physical powers. Their combinedeffects produces a sports person. Suppose again in the 10th House is afiery sign this may make the native a wrestler or a body building. Thisway an astrologer should intelligently consider the effect of variousplanets in the 10th house.

If there is no planet in the tenth house we have to consider the10th lord and influence of various planets on it.

Q.No. 16 : (A) What is Yoga? How they fruitify?

a) Yoga in Astrological terms means the position of a planet inrelation to Bhavas and other planets in the horoscope. TheseYogas produce auspicious and in-auspicious results accordingto the inter connection of the planets.

(i) Due to their position.

(ii) In the same house or conjunction.

(iii) In each other's house.

(iv) In each other's Nakshatra.

(v) In Kendra or trikona from earth other.

(vi) Their position from each other or having planets in 2nd, 12th,6th,7th, 8th from them.

b) Due to their aspects (Drishti)

Some special planetary combinations rendering high politicalpower and influence great wealth higher education etc., on the one handand misery debts demoralisation etc., on the other hand the knowledgeof these Yoga's help in finding the correct future happenings. Theseshould be scrutinized along with the application ofthe usual astrologicalrules.

Example:

The different types of Yoga's are Rajayoga that produces highpolitical power or acquisition of high position in Government;Dhanayoga (combination showing great wealth) Gyana Yoga(Combination for real higher knowledge and renunciation ofthe worldand Arishta Yoga (series ofmisfortune of the most benefic nature etc.)

33

(B) Discuss Vipareeta Raja Yoga?

This Yoga is formed by the placement of lords of 6th, 8th, 12thHouses in each other sign or together or Exchanging their houses. Itmay be better to know first about the 6th, 8th, 12th Houses. Ifthey arein own sign/If they are in each other's sign.

(l) 6th lord in the 6th House-The native will have enmity with thegroup of his kingmen but he will be friendly to others. •

(2) 6th lord in the 8th House-The native will be sickly, Inimical,desire others wealth be interested in other wives and be impure ordegraded.

(3) 6th lord in the 12th, the native will always spend on vices behostile to learned people and will torture living beings.

(4) 8th lord in the 6th House-The native will always win over hisenemies be afflicted by diseases and during childhood will incurdanger through snakes and water.

8th lord in the 8th the native will be long-lived. If the said planetbe weak being in the 8th-The native longevity will be medium.He will be a thief be blame worthy and will blame others as well.

8th lord in the 12th House-The native will spend on evil deedsand will have a short life more so ifthere be additionally a maleficin the said house.

12th lord in the 6th House-The native will incur enmity with hisown men be given to anger, be simple and miserable.,12th lord in the 8th House-The native will always gain, willspeak affably, will enjoy a medium span of life and be endowedwith qualities.

12th lord in the 12th-The native will face heavy expenditureand will not have physical felicity be irritable and spiteful. It willbe seen from the above that according to Parashar the lords ofthe6th, 8th and 12th are not good enough even when they occupytheir own houses. According to him only the 12th lord in the 8thproduces some good effects.

Q.17 : What are Divisional Charts. Give an example ofNavamsha and Dashamsha Charts? What are the professionalprospects of the native in your opinion?

34

D-7 Saptamsha chart

0-9 Navamsha Chart

0-10 Dashamsha chart

D-12 Dwadashamsha chart

D-16 Shodashamsha chart

0-20 Vmsamsha chart

Divisional chart is erected by dividing a sign into parts forexample-if we want to prepare a divisional chart for one ninth part ofa sign we will divide the 30°, extent of a sign in nine equal parts of3°20' eachthen we have a standard Methodology reckoning the signs ofnatal planets as well as the rising degree of the Ascendants in thedivisional chart for ninth part which is known as the Navamsha chart.

The following are the names of some divisional charts :

0-1 Rashi Chart All events in general.

D-2 Hora Chart Wealth, finance, poverty etc.

D-3 Drekkona Chart Relation with Brother and Sisters.

(d) Ifthe Bhava is aspected by benefics or planets owning auspicioushouses.

(e) A house acquires adequate strength and cangive beneficial resultsofthe Ist, 2nd, 4th, 5th, 7th,9th and l Oth houses from that houseone occupied by auspicious planets.

(f) Any Bhava aspected by strong benefics like Mercury or Jupiter,and not aspected by any other planet and there is no PAC withmalefics produces auspicious results.

Generally or to conclude a house becomes strong when beneficsare placed in that house and it gets the aspects of benefics and isconjuncted with benefics.

How to judge a Bhava :

Judgement of a Bhava is generally done by studying the House,its lord and its significator or Karaka of the particular Bhava. Correctresults can only be achieved by a proper analyses ofall the three factorswhich are:

(i) House (Bhava)

(ii) Lord of the house (Bhavesh)

(iii) Significator (Karaka) of thehouse.

The association or aspect ofa benefic on a Bhava or the aspect ofthat Lord of that concerned house on its own house or PAC of anauspicious planet, ifthere is no PACofa malefic then favourable resultswill be enjoyed by the native in respect ofthat Bhava. These results willbecome malefic if there is influence of malefic Planets.

To judge a Bhava we can also consider which sign the Bhava hasoccupied. According to the nature of that sign also we can judge theBhava. The significator of the Bhava and its position aspect andconjunction also helps in delineating the results.

If the Bhava have planets which are in Exaltation or own sign ordebilitated then also judgement ofBhava becomes easy as to know howthe results will come. The planet in exaltation and own sign will givegood results to that Bhava and the debilitated one would give bad results.To conclude we can say to judge a Bhava after considering the threevital points we can judge a Bhava and also by the PAC of the planets.By this simple rule we can judge a Bhava easily.

44

Q.No. 22 : Significance of the 7th house.

Ans. : The 7th house is well known as the house ofthe partner­the wife in a man's chart, the husband in that ofa woman. It is the mainhouse for judging marriage and male/female relationships. Being thehouse, opposite the Lagna (representing self), the 7th house (ordescendant), represents one's opposite or complement, the other.

The 7th house is thereby a house oflove and passion, and planetshere give a strong sexual nature. It represents more long term, committedrelationship rather than romantic infatuations (which are betterrepresented by the 5th house). It indicates partnership in general, evenon an impersonal level.

As reflecting our relationship with "the other", it shows aspectsofour social nature, and our capacity to affect others, in general. Thus,it may sometimes give political power, or power over others, particularlyif malefics like Mars or Saturn are posited here.

Planets do not usually do well here for personal relationships,except Jupiter or a well placed Moon. Mercury causes quick orsuperficial relationships, while Venus gives a sensuous nature. Marsgives power but causes conflict. Saturn causes detachment, separationand selfishness. Rahu and Ketu give psychic or psychological sensitivitiesor derangement in relationship.

Q.No. 23 : Discuss Alpayu, Balarishta, Yogarishta andMadhyam and Poornayu?

Ans, : The good and bad results on the basis of planetarycombinations in a horoscope must only be pronounced after determiningthe length oflife. It is fruitless to make any prediction if the native is notgoing to live long enough for the prediction to materialise. For generalpurposes of astrology the life of a native may fall under one of thefollowing categories.

1. Balarishta or age upto 8 years.

2. Yogarishta or age upto 20 years i.e., from 8 years to 20 years.

3. Alpayu or short span, upto 32 years.

4. Madhyam or medium life span i.e., from 32 years to 70 years,and

S. Poornayu or full length oflife i.e., from 70 years to 100 years.

45

Drekkana sign of (a) the Lagna and (b) the Moon

Navamsa sign of (a) the Lagna Lord and (b) thelord of Moon sign

Group III: Dwadashamsa sign of (a), the lagna lord and(b) the 8th lord.

Now, according to Mantreshwara, ifboth i.e., Drekkana ofLagnaand Moon are in Sthir/Fixed sign-Alpayu is predicted. Or if one inmoveable sign and the other in DwiswabhavalDual Sign-Alpayu ispredicted.

Lagna Lord, Navamsa sign and the lord ofMoon sign (Navamsasign) ifboth in Fixed sign or one in moveable sign and he other in dualsign-Alpayu is predicted.

Dwadashamsa ofLagna lord and that of8th lord, ifboth in fixedsign or one in moveable sign and the other in Dual" sign, Alpayu ispredicted.

Astrology provides us with several yogas on the basis of which.the life of a native can be assessed by considering various factors as;available from the study of the Horoscope of the native.

The Yogas which supports the A1payu ofa native are as under:

Though no method/yoga is perfect, some ofthem which are foundto be practicable are as under:

A general method of deciding on short, medium or full life spaninvolves the consideration ofthe three group factors:

Group I (a) Lagna lord and (b) 8th lord.

Group II (a) Lagna and (b) the Moon.

Group III (a) Lagna and (b) the Hora Lagna.

The placement ofeach ofthese two factors i.e., (a) and (b) providethe life span indicated by the concerned group. If factors (a) and (b) arein sthir/fixed Rashis then Alpahy is predicted.

If one in CharaIMoveable Rashi and the other in Dviswabhava/Dual sign then Alpayu is predicted.

According to Mantreswara, the life span of a native can also bejudged on the following basis based on the consideration following threegroups:

Group I:

Group II:

46

Alpayu

Alpayu

There are several other combinations, which predict the span ofife of a native. The combinations for the Alpayu are given as under:

(i) All benefices in Apolkima houses Alpayu(ii) 8th Lord and all malefics in Kendra Alpayu

.li (iii) Weak Lagna Lord in the house 6,8,, or 12 bereft of benefic aspect

" (iv) Malefics in Kendra, berefit ofbeneficAspect and Lagna lord being weak

(v) Malefics in houses 2 and 12 berefitofbenefic aspect Alpayy

So these are someof the yogas/combinations which support theview that the native will have Alpayu or short span of life.

Q.No. 24 : Give combination of the following?

(a) Blindnes-Following are certain combinations from whereblindness can be expected if there is sufficient affliction in all thedivisional charts and the dasha period supports it. They are-

(i) Debilitated Moon in 6th or the 12th house or aspected bymalefics.

(ii) Moon in 2nd House from the Sun, afflicted by theassociation or aspect of malefics.

(iii) The Sun and Moon together in Kendra, in the 8th Navamshaofa watery sign.

(iv) The Sun and the Moon together in 12th house afflicted bymalefics.

(v) The sun and the Moon in houses 6 and 8 or Mars andSaturn in houses 6 and 8. Now here it is to be understoodthat the Sun and the Moon are the two luminaries and theyare the Karaka ofRight and Lefteye. Their involvement isa must in case of blindness ofthe native.

(b) Stomach Ulcer-Generally the Sun (Leo) rules 5th Part of KalaPurusha. In the Kala Purusha Chart 5th house represents thestomach. So, great affliction to Sun and sign ruling the 5th housein the Kala Purusha Chart (Leo) will represent the stomach ulcer.Affliction to 5th House, 5th lord is inevitable.

(c) Asthama-Asthama is caused due to the disorders in Lungs whichin the Kala Purusha chart is signified by the cancer sign ruled bythe Moon. Cancer is a Jalatatva Rashi.

47

Some ofthe combinations are as under:

(i) The Moon and the Sun involved in mutual exchange in theRashi or Navamsha Chart. The Moon and Sun together inCancer or Leo.

(ii) Venus in association with the Lagna lord in any ofthe Trikhouse.

(iii) The Moon conjoined with Saturn and aspected by Mars.

(d) Kidney trouble: Malefic influence on the Sixth house, sixthsign and their lords is inevitable because kidneys are located inthe sixth part of the Kala Purusha. The second point to be notedin this connection is that since there is allied trouble ofurine, theaffliction of Venus is also involved.

(e) Deafness: The classical combinations for deafness are as follows :

(a) Mercury in 6th, 8th or 12th house aspected by Saturn.

(b) Mercuryin 4th house from Saturn and the 6th Lord in oneof the Trik House.

(c) Cojunction of the Sun and Mercury in houses 3, 6, or II.

(d) Mercury associated with Sun in 3rd, 6th or the 11th houseopposed by Mars and Saturn.

(e) Debilitated Venus associated with Rahu.

Astrological Priciple

(i) Mercury deals with hearing as well as communication of .any sort. A strong Mercury under benefic influence indicatestrong and healthy hearing mechanism.

(ii) The third House : The third is the lfouse in the horoscopeconcerned with hearing. Benefic influence on the 3rd Housel3rd lord ensures a healthy hearing system.

(iii) The II th House: The 3rd house and 3rd lord indicates theRight ear and IIth house and the IIth Lord indicates theleft ear.

Benefic and Malefic influences on Mercury, 3rd House/3rd Lord,IIth Housel IIth Lord indicates the state of health of ears.

Q.No. 25 : Discuss role of Retrograde Planets in Transit?

Planets move around Sun and in reality they are always in directmotion excepting Rahu and Ketu. Rahu-Ketu are shadow planets withoutany physical existence. When viewed from Earth it appears to us that

48

planets has slowed down in their direct motion and became stationeryin the sky and then appear to reverse in direction of their motion. Theinfluence of benefic planets are weakened when they retrograde, whenMalefic planets are retrograde, the evil effects are increased. Ifboth theaspccung and aspected planets be retgograde the things indicated bythem would be deficient or disappointing. Hence retrograding isconsidered as debility, when a planet is retrograding it affects the matterspertaining to the affairs of the house that it rules. A retrograde planetbring success only when every thing else fails. A retrograde planet alwaysimplies delay or denial in its objetive or action. When malefic planet areretrograde the evil effects are increased.

Result of Retrograde Planets

Mars : When Mars Retrogrades-Stops in the middle of theproject, delay in marriage for ladies.

Mercury: For e.g., the astrologer who is more accurate in natalanalysis in predictive work. He will fail.

Jupiter: They find success in projects where others fails, theypredict disaster where others see success and vice-versa.

Venus: They do not find enjoyment in things liked by most people,they find it difficult to adjust.

Saturn: They are secretive.

These are some results when the planets retrograde.

Q.No. 26 : Discuss Vedha in brier?

Ans. : Vedha in Sanskrit means an obstructing force or point.

Suppose light is coming from a particular source. If we put anobstruction between the source of light and the spot, the light will beobstructed and would cease to illuminate the spot where it was formerlyfalling. Similarly, suppose the Sun transiting the third sign counted fromthe radical moon, ifa planet other than Saturn in the ninth, the influenceemitted by the Sun being the third from the Moon, will be obstructed,and the influence due to his transit through the house from the natal

~moon will not be felt. When describing Vedha for the Sun, we have said',that any planet other than Saturn will do so. This is because the Sun is

the father of Saturn, and the Moon is the father of Mercury.

There is no Vedha by the son to the father or by the father to theson.

If there is another planet transiting the 9th house from JanamRashi while Ravi in 3rd, Vedha is caused. Whatever benefic resultsRavi ought to produce in the 3rd house, will not be realized as theplanet in the 9th house has obstructed Ravi's influences, Conversely ifRavi by transiting the ninth house and there is a planet moving in the3rd, then also obstruction to Ravi's evil influence in the ninth housetakes place. The same should be the rule for other places of Ravi andother planets, It may be noted as important point. Vedha must be takeninto consideration while considering the transit affects ofvarious planets.

Planatery positions, aspects and conjunctions are as follows :

1. Lagna in Aquarius, 5th and 8th lord Mercury is in Lagna.

Lagna Lord Saturn is in ~rd House (Mars house) and is

debiliated with 2nd Lord Jupiter.

2. Lord of 2nd and 11th is in 3rd along with Lagna Lord.

3. Lord of3rd and 10th Mars is in 12th house (exalted house).

Mars Karaka for brothers thrivingfur away from him much

better life than him.

4. Lord of 4th and 9th Venus is in 2nd house along with 6th

lord Moon, 7th lord Sun and Ketu.

Benefics: Venus, Mercury, Jupiter

Malefics: Moon, Sun, Mars

Lagna Lord Saturn debilitated in 3rd.

Venus: Mahadasha

Venus is a yoga Karaka for Aquarius Lagna and is operating

after 46 years of age. Being lord of 4th and 9th, is placed in 2nd his

exalted house, gives good results during his Mahadasha. However, he

is associated with malefics Moon 6th Lord along with Sun the 7th lord

and Ketu. He is aspected by Rahu; with Mars.

( As per Parashara if a planet (Dasha lord) is in 1st Drekkana he

will start giving result at the commencement ofhis period. As Venus is

6°52' (Ist Drekkona) good results will be there during first 6-7 years

which fall under Venus-Mars Antaradasha. As Mars is the lord of 3rd

and 10th (Kendra) in 12th, gives good results as 12th house (Capricorn

ishis exalted house) and Saturn (Lagna Lord) aspecting Mars, connected

with job (profession) is a functional benefic. Native was promoted in

this period.

Venus-Mars (1 year 2 months)

The positions of Mars is in exaltation aspected by Lagna Lord

from 3rd (house of Mars) and Rahu from 8th. Mars will give increase

in wealth, acquisition of Jewellery,clothes, fulfilment ofdesires. During

52

1.

Venus-Mars period the native suffers due to cough, bile, blood diseases

and losses courage. Other classics suggest that the native may get respect,

gain of land,comforts, goes abroad, involves in bad deeds.

The native was shot dead by terrorists on 10-5-92 in Venus Dasa

and Rahu Antar Dasa.

Saravali : This period result in suffering from diseases concerning

blood and bile, acquires land, favours from king.

Q.No. 27 : Explain the principles behind the following Dasha

system?

(l) Ashtottari, (2) Vimshottari, (3) Kalachakra Dasa.

Ashtottari Dasa

(i) Applicability of Dasa : According to Rishi Parashar (a) when

birth takes place during day time in Krishna Paksha or during

night in Shukla Paksha, Ashtottari Dasa should be applied. He

also says (b) that when Rahu is in Kendra or Trikona from Lagna

Lord (without beingconjunct with La.gna Lord) this can be applied.

(ii) Desachar: According to our view Ashtottari Dasa is being

followed in Gujrat, Kuch, Sindh, Panchal (V.P., Punjab, Haryana),

north ofVmdhyas.Jatak Vmod states that in Kaliyug Vimshottari

Dasa if effective. But Parashar did not issue any such indication

about the applicability of Ashtottari Dasa or Vimshottari Dasa.

(iii) Periods of 108 years. This is based on anticipating that the life

span would be less than 108 years, in Kaliyuga.

(iv) Order of Dasa and periods of allotment : Only 8 planets are

considred excluding Ketu. But reasons ofexcluding Ketu has not

been given. There are two systems ofcalculating Ashtottari Dasa.

First one is based on Krithikadi Nakshatras and other is Aridradi

Nakshatras. But based on Krithikadi Nakshtras is said to be more

prevalent. Lahiri's Ephemeris gives a helpful ready reckener for

calculations both ways. Following table may help in understanding

this aspect ofKrittikadi Ashtottari Dasa :

According Brhiat Parashar Hora-Abhijit Nakshatra is alsocounted in Ashtottari by adjusting it between Uttarashada and Shravana.

Dasa Calculation: In order to find out dasa at birth first find outJanrna nakshatra at the birth, then decide whether one wants to applyKrittikadi Ashtottari Dasa or Ardradi Ashtottari Dasa, on the basis ofplace ofpopularity of the region. When Krittikadi Ashtottari should beapplied and when Ardradi Ashtottari Dasa.

Illustration (1): Suppose Moon 17°3' is in Leo at birth in P.Phalguni.

P. Phalguni 4' 13° 20' to 4' 26° 40' = 13° 20

Moon had passed in P. Phalguni == 4° 17° 3'-4' 13°20 == 3° 43'

Balance yet to be covered in P. Phalguni is =577'/800' x 5 years= 3 yeras 7 months, 8 days

Add 5 years form Uttar Phalguni to 3 years 7 month, 8 days

So Balance of Moon Dasa at birth in Aridradi system is == 8 yrs.7 monts 8 days.

Illustration (2) : Balance in Krittikadi for the same longitude ofthe Moon in P. Phalguni ==

577'/800 x 32 months == I year II months 2 days 9 hrs. 36 mts.

Add 2 yrs 8 months of U. Phalguni == 4 years, 7 months, 2 day 9hrs. 36 mts.

Balance of Mars at birth == 4 yrs. 7 months 2 day 9 hrs. 36 mts.

Sub-period Calculation: The sub-period in any major Dasa canbe worked out proportionately by following the same formula which is

55

applied in Vimshottari by substituting 108 in place of120 yrs e.g. Moon'ssub-period in Moon dasa will be

15 x 15/108= 225 = 2 yrs 1 month.

Diference between Vunshottari and Ashtottari

Period 120 years 108 yearsPlanet 9 8 Ketu excludedNakshatra 27 28 Abhijit includedApplication Universal On fulfilment of

Specifical conditions.

Calculation: One Nakshtra indicate full major period.

One Nakshtra covers any part of year or major period

(b) VlOlshottari Dasa :

(i) Application of this Dasa is universal.

(ii) Period of 120 years is based on the life span of 120 years.

(iii) Order of Dasa and Allotment of Period

Planet Years Stars assigned Period ofeach Nakshtra

Sun 6yrs. Krittika, U. Phalguni, Uttarashada 6 years

Moon 10 yrs. Rohini, Hasta, Shravan 10 years

Mars 7yrs. M. Sira, Chitta, Dhanishtha 7 years

Rahu 18 yrs. Aridra, Swathi, Salbtusba 18 years

Jupiter 16 yrs. P. Vasu, Vishaka, P. Bhad pav. 16 years

Saturn 19 yrs. Pushya, Anuradha, V. Shardapara 19 years

Mercury 17 yrs. Ashlesha, Jyeshtha, Revati 17 years

Ketu 7yrs. Aswani, Magha, Moola 7 years

Venus 20yrs. Bharani, P. Phalguni, P. Shada 20 years

Total 120 yrs.

(iv) Calculation of Dasa : Janam Naksbatra i.e., Naksbatra wherethe moon is posited at the time of birth indicates dasa of planetgoverning Janma Nakshatra, followed by the periods of Lord of2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, Nakshatra.

Dasa balance of Janma Nakshatra at birth is indicated by thespan ofNakshatra which was yet to betransited by the Moon in Janma

.,,; Nakshatra.

56

Kalachakra Dasa (i) Aplication: A certain section ofastrologersthought that Kalachakra Dasa should be applied only (a) whenVenus is strong; (b) when the lord of the Navamsha, where themoon is placed joins or aspects the moon and (c) the lord of sucha Navamsha is strongly pleaced. Dr.B.V Raman does not subscribeto this view and says that it can be applied to any horoscopeincluding horary charts on the basis ofastrology ofgreat Parashar.Shri K.N. Rao is of the view that it is very important to timedeath of a native and his relations.

Desachar : After Vimshottari, Ashtottari and Yogini, KalachakraDasa is said to be prevalent in different parts of our country.

Period: Dasa period is not fixed and it differs with differentquarter (Navamsha) ofa particular Nakshatra-varying from 83yrs, 85, 86 and 100 yrs. These are taken as total longevity.

Savya : Apsavya Nakshtra Division: Svaya means clockwise,while apsavaya means anti clockwise. There are 15 Savya

57

Calculation ofBhukti or Sub-period or Antar Dasa: For easilycalculating Antar Dasa of sub period in any dasa period, followingformula is applied. Multiply the number of years of Dasa period ofDasa lord, by the number of years of Dasa of desired Antar Dasa'slord. Then cutting off the last digit ofthe product, multiply it by 3, keepthat figures as days, the other figures in the product will be months.Suppose we want to calculate Venus sub period in Sun Dasa.

Sun Dasa years 6 x Venus Dasa years 20 = 120 = 12 months.

Zero, i.e., last digit in the product, ifnecessary is to multiplied by3 and the product would indicate days.

Calculating of Pratyantar : First find out sub-period, i.e., Moon­Jupiter. 10 x 16 = 160 = 16 months

To find out Mars-Jupiter, Mercury following method is to beapplied.

In 120 years - Mercury period is 17 years

So in 16 months, Mercury's in the period =17 x 16/120 months

=2721120 = 2 months = 32 x 301120 days.

Mon-Jup-Mercury = 2 months 8 days.

This Pratyantar period is further sub-divided into Sukshma andfurther Prana taking this division upto hours and minutes ofa particulardate.

Savya Nakshatras1,2,37,8,913, 14, 1519,20,2125,26,27

This division decides Savya or Apsavya Janma Nakshatra andorder of Rasi Dasa. It differs from Vimshottati ie., Guru Dasa takescare ofSagittarius and Pisces both but in Kalachakra it would either beGuru-Dhanu Dasa and Guru-Meena Dasa are two different set, andgive different results.

Number of Dasas: 9 for birth in every pada ofevery Nakshatras.

Order of Dasas : One must appreciate further classification ofSavya stars into first class of odd stars and second class of even stars.Apsavya stars are also divided in even and odd stars.

(a) DasaKramainoddSavyastars:(l,3, 7,9,13,15,19,21,25,27). In this class of stars, in four Navamshas or padas of stars,dasas starts from aries to Saggitarius for 1st Pada. For secondpada it follows the same order upto pisces, but thereaftet it takesreverse order starting from Scorpio to Gemini. For third padasame order reverse order continues upto Saggitarius, then Savyaorder starts and continues upto Gemini for 4th pada same Savyaorder continues and runs for Cancer to Pisces.

(b) Dasa Krama in even Savya Stars: (2: 8, 14, 20" 26). Dasasstarts in 4 padas in Apsavya order from Scorpio and continuesupto Saggitarius then from Aries to Pisces in Savya order, andthen again in Apsavya order from Scorpio to Saggitariu.

(c) Dasa Krama in even Apasavya Stars: (4,6, 10, 12, 16, 18,22,24,). Dasa starts from lst pada to 4th pada of the stars, in Savyaorder from Saggitarius upto Scorpio (12), then in Apsavya orderfrom Pisces to Aries (12), then in Savya order from Saggitariusto Scorpio (12). Savya order from Saggitarius toScorpio and thenagain in Apasavya order from Pisces to Aries.

Note: There appears some difference ofopinion about the orderofDasa s relating to 4 stars Aridra, (6) Uttara Phalguni (12), Jyestha(18) and Purva Bhadrapada (24). The order mentioned above is in

58

accordance with the opinion of Dr. B.V Raman. Dewan Ram ChandraKapoor in his book on Ka1achakra Dasa puts these Nakshatras alongwith odd Apasavya stars instead ofplacing along with the even Apasavyastars.

Disturbance in the order : In Savya stirs in apasavya orderCancer precedes Leo and in Apsavyas stars in Savya order Leo precedesCancer. This must not be forgotten.

Deha and Jeeva Rashis in Odd Savya Stars (10) Deha Rasi in4 padas of every star are Aries, Capricorn, Taurus and Cancerrespectively. Jeeva Rasi in 4 padas are Saggitarius and Gemini andPisces. In Even Savya Stars (5) Deha rasi in 4 padas are Scorpio,Aquarius, Libra and Cancer respectively.

Savya- Age 100858386

In Savya stars Dasa start with Deha Rasi and 9th Dasa is ofJeeva Rasi. In apasavya stars Dasa starts with Jeeva Rasi and 9th Dasais of Deha Rasi. Lords ofthese various Dchapati and Jeevapati.

In all Apasavya stars Jeeva Rasi in 9th Dasa Rasi while JeevaRasi is 1st Dasa Rasi.

Apasavyas-Age 868385100

In all even Apasavya stars (4, 10, 16, 12 and 6, 12, 18, 24)according to Dr. Raman Deha Rasis are Cancer, Libra, Aquarius andScorpio and Jeeva Rasis are Saggitarius, Virgo, Virgo, Pisces. Whileaccordint to Dewan Ram chandra Kapoor's view 4 stars (6, 12, 18,24)should be treated not in this category but alongwith odd apasavya stars(5, 11, 17, 23). In these stars Deha Rasi is Cancer, Taurus, Capricornand Aries respectively in 4 padas and Jeeva Rasis are Pisces, Gemini,Gemini and Saggitarius.

Note: For calculations students are advised to refer to classicalbooks such as Brihat Parasara Hora Sastra etc.

Q.No. 28 : Describe the effects of the 12 Bhava lords duringtheir Dasas when they are strong/weak in vimshottary Dasa system?

Ans. : The opening dasa is of Mars with a balance of 5 years 1Cmonths 14 days. As such Mars Bhukti was over. Rahu was also partlyover and balance of Rahu Bhukti at birth is 3 months II days. Thus wearc to consider Mars dasa and Rahu Bhukti from a number of angles.

63

(i) Position of Bhukti Lord in Rasi :

(a) Rahu is placed in 6th from Lagna and aspected by 5th lord Saturn.This is doubly benefic for Rahu in 6th destroy many aristas.

(b) From the Moon it is placed in 10th, it is again beneficial.

(c) From Mars its 9th and 5th relationship, which is beneficial.

In Navamsa:

(a) Rahu is again in 3rd from Navamsa. Lagna is Parakramamsawhich is good.

(b) Rahu is 6th from Mars. If position of Mars is taken to be Lagnaas suggested by Satyacharya its placement should not beviewedas adverse.

(c) Rahu is not placed here in friendly navamsa but inrnical navamsa.This is not good.

(ii) Mutual Relation :

(a) Mars and Rahu are enimical to each other both ways naturallyand temporarily. This is adverse.

(b) Mars is dispositor of'Rahu and Bhagya Lord Venus both. This islikely to give mixed results.

(c) Both are malefics hence bad results, as 6th and 8th places mutually.

(ii) Innate Strength of Mars :

(a) Vargottam. Hence good.

(b) Digbali, being placed in 10th in Rasi and Navamsa.

(c) Moving towards debilition, hence Avrohi, and bad.

(d) Placed in Sarna rasi for Mercury, though natural enemy buttemporary friend. Hence can not be said to be good.

(e) It is neither in a Rasi sandhi nor Bhava Sandhi. Rather is justclose to middle of 10th Bhava, hence strong.

(f) It is Atrna Karaka. Hence good.

(g) Mars is 3rd and 8th Lord, hence bad.

(h) Mars is 2nd from the Moon and Lagnesh hence bad.

(i) Mars is with Venus in 10th and Venus being 9th Lord is afflictedand likely to cause health problems specially urinary diseases.

Mars is in Mrita Avastha and Avrohi, near to debilitated pointhence pretty weak and bad.

64

(j) Rahu is Balavastha, hence bad, depicts portion in Moola Trikonasign. It is not strong.

Steller Occupation: Janma Nakshatra is Mrigshira. Mars is inPunarvasu i.e. 3rd from Janma Nakshatra Rahu is in Dhanistha, being19th, it is Janma Nakshatra some call it Aadhana Nakshatra also.

Besides Mars is placed in the Nakshatra of 7th Lord. Thus Marsis Markesha. Its placement in Gemini amongst other things causes Vata­pitta Roga. Here Mars being lord of 8th, creates relationship in Rasiand Navamsa aspected by Saturn indicates chronic and several types ofailment to native. Deaths takes place in this period. No doubt Moon isplaced along with Sun in 9th which is not good, but it does not appearto be a case of Balarishtha. Father may gain some money by goingtowards west-Mars being in Gemini and Rahu in Acquarius its MoolTrikona.

Transit : In transit for yearly results-Saturn and Jupiter wouldindicate the area of attention. Lagna is jointly aspected. Saturn beingin 8th given sickness and Jupiter in Chandra Lagna confirms the same.

For monthly results Sun and Mars should be considered. Sun is7th from the Moon is prone to cause abdominal trouble. Mars in 2ndfrom the Moon is prone to cause abdominal based ailment like Pitta,apart from fear from fire and wind. Mars in Cancer, transit to Leo i.e.,and is not good.

Seeing overall it is case ofailment ofChronic type, and fear fromthieves, and fire, small gains are there but comparitively negligible.

Judgement based of Rasi Chart :

(i) 7th Lord Sun posited in 6th, with 6th Lord and aspected by Marsso delay in marriage.

(ii) The 7th house is aspectcd by Lagna lord as well as 12th LordSaturn, hence delay in marriage.

(iii) Karaka ofmarriage, Venus is in 6th, and aspected by Mars, hencedelay in marriage.

(iv) 5th but 8th Lord Mercury also is placed in 7th

(v) Pluto in 7th is indicative of explosive situation in married life.

(vi) Neptune, Sun Venus conjunction is likely to make the native daydreamer causing impediments and hurdles in marriage.

(vii) Second Lord Jupiter though Vargottam, but in Rahu Ketu axisand is aspected by Mars. This is not a good situation. SecondLord also does not have any benefic aspect.

(viii) From the Moon 7th house lord is aspecting 7th house and Venusis also aspecting 7th house, but Saturn 7th Lord is aspected byMars. So the little ray of hope is also vanishing.

Navamsha Chart: It may be seen in two ways. One from theangle of strength of concerned planets and second from the angle ofNavamsa Chart altogether independently.

(A) (i) Sun 7th Lord is in a benefic Navamsa Pisces, in Kutambamsha.As such the Sun has improoved.

(ii) Venus the Karaka is in Leo Navamsa.which indicates that theremay not be much sexual urge, as it I~ a Brahmacharya rasi.

(iii) Second lord Jupiters position does not improve, except he IS In

Vargottam.

67

(B) Navamsa chart if independently seen:

(i) Venus Karaka as well as 7th Lord is in Leo Navamsa aspected bySaturn and Moon. This again not good.

(ii) Second Lord Jupiter is in 12th in Rahu Ketu axis.

(iii) Navamsa Lagna Lord Mars is in 12th

Other Considerations:

1. One thing should not be ignored in this case. Santan Karaka Jupiteris aspecting Lagna, and 5th house both. 5th Lord is placed in 7th.That gives ray ofsome hope. But placement ofMercury aspectedby Saturn indicates less sex urge.

2. Aspect ofVenus Karaka on 7th from Moon and aspect ofSaturnon 7th from Moon again gives some hope.

Dasa : Venus, being (a) Karaka of Marriage, (b) placed with 7thlord Sun; (c) he is the 7th Lord in Navamsa Chart; and (d) It is 7th fromthe Moon, capable of giving marriage to the native, in its dasa.

Now Antar Dasa should be seen. As marriage is delayed it cannotbe expected before 25 at all. Venus Jupiter started on 6-10-1983. Jupiteris afflicted by Rahu Ketu axis and Mars. Vargottam Jupiter could expressonly pious hopes.

Venus-Saturn appear to be most favourable, as Saturn being 7thLord from Moon and 4th Lord ofNavamsa Chart is in to Moola Trikona,placed in 5th from Venus. From Lagna Lord it also aspects 7th. It is inLagnesh and according Deva Keralam it is good. It is aspecting NavamsaLagna and placed with Navamsa. 7th Lord in 4th in its own house. Thisindicates that marriage must take place between 6th June 1986to 6.8.89.

Transit: Ifwe seeyearly transit in 86-87 ~ Jupiter was in Acquariusaspecting 5th house, and 9th house. Saturn activates 5th and 7th by itsaspect as 5th Lord and in 7th house. So marriage is being made betweenFeb. 1986 to Feb. 1987. Entry ofRahu in Pisces in second house in oct.1986 and its 9th aspect on 7th Lord Sun, 7th karaka Venus also activatesthem. So marriage should take place between Oct. 1986 to Feb. 1987.

Conclusion: But seeing all the aspects, it cannot be said that themarriage would survive. It indicates delay and unsuccessful marriage.

Q.No. 31: Investigate the profession ofthe native chart givenbelow, its past and future possiblities and quote adequate reasonsfor your conclusion.

To find out nature of profession-one has to see (i) the positionof:

(a) In Navamsa where 10th Lord from Lagna is placed = Virg/Mer.

(b) In Navamsa where 10th Lord from the Moon is placed = Aries/Mars

70

(c) In Navamsa where 10th Lord from the Sun is places =Virgo/Sun

(ii) Planets connected with lOth placed/aspecting = Ketu, Jup., Ven.,Rahu

(iii) Dasamsa Chart 10th Lord and its dispasition-Venus aspectedby Mercury. Dispositor Mars.

Factors common in all of them should indicate the profession.

(iv) But before that, general strength of l Oth Lord in Rasi Chart andits placement must be seen. Lord Lagna and l Oth is Mercury.Whenever 6th Lord is stronger than Lagna Lord, one should besure that native should be in service. Presence ofLagna Lord andl Oth Lord also indicates a selfinade native. If conjunction with10th Lord Sun indicates Government service. This can beconfirmed from Navamsa Chart. In Dasamsa Chart Lord of 6this in 2nd along with Lagna Lord, indicating service.

(v) Karaka of lOth Sun and Mars should be seen. Karaka Sun is in3rd with l Oth Lord an the sign of Ati Mitra Mars. There isexchange between Lagna and 3rd Lords. Hence both are fairlystrong.

(vi) l Oth house is also strong Jup. Venus and Rahu from 4th aspectand this is Kendra Trikona relation to 4th it means exchangedposition in public but distant place. lOth Lord though in 3rd, butin its own Nakshatra Anuradha. In Navamsa it is exalted.

Sun, Mars and Mercury are 3 predominant factors. Sun indicatesprofession connected with Government while Mars indicates professionrelation to Armed Forces or Police personnel, Mercury indicatesprofession connected with intelligence.

(vii) (a) During Shani Dasa, Saturn Bhukti native could have joinedsome service at lower level.

(b) Saturn-Mercury-Dasa being of 5th and 6th and he could havechanged job for better job but remained dissatified and shouldchange his job again.

(c) Saturn-~nus-With gods grace he should get a good job withsome official position in govt. or Semi-Govt. job.

(d) Saturn-Sun-Should face some official displacement due tosubordinates.

(e) Saturn-Moon-His collegues created problems for him.

71

(f) Saturn-Mars-Should get penal transfer and posting and wrathof superiors. May even leave the job.

(g) Saturn-Rahu-Indicates statutiory from a scratch with kind ofcompanion.

(h) Saturn-Jupiter-Gets a jump in career after loosing all hopes.

(i) Mercury-Mars-Short distance transfer or shifting with somefinancial benefits.

G) Mars-Ketu-Some explosive situation developes and there couldan abrupt end.

(k) Mercury-~nus-Gets some other petty job at some other place.

(1) Ketu-Sun-«Tiffwith boss and transfer and shifting ofjob.

(m) Mercury-Mars-Some writingand intellectual work and gain fromit.

(n) Mars-Rahu-Period of shifting and composed thinking but withstraight gain after overcoming some intial dificulties.

(0) Mercury-Jupiter-Indicates change in job and place to somedistant place after some initial setbacks.

(P) Mercury-Satum.-Indicates again change in job and place bothfor a better.

This needs some elaboration. Saturn is in Purvabhadra star ruledby Jup. in its own sign. It is sampat Nakshatra and Mercury is in KshemaNakshetra. Hence both to give prosperity. As Saturn is placed in 6thcould be in service. Both are Sthir Rasi, therefore they should givestability. Saturn is associated with l lth Lord, hence it should give gains.In Navarnsa, Saturn is involved in cancellation ofdebilitation, hence itshould give thatresults in its Antardasa. In Dasamsa Saturn and Mercuryin 2nd and 12 but both are in their friendly signs and both are aspectedby Jupiter and Venus. Dasamsa Lord Sun is with 7th and 6th LordSaturn. Giving position and status-but bitter authentaitive tongue.Mercury is third aspected by 10th Lord Venus. Thus there is coordination10th, 11th, 2nd and 3d Lord. This should in volve short travels in thejob. But over all it is good period from this angle.

Ketu's period is also supposed to be beneficial as it is wellaspected, well placed in Rasi and Dsamamsa both.

Q.32. What are thePancha Maha Purusha Yogas? How wouldyou rate them? Are there any factors for singling out the effectiveones?

72

According to Parashara, Panch Maha Purusha Yogas namelyare Ruchika, Bhadra, Hamsa, Malavya and Sasha. These are formedwhen Mars. Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn respectively occupytheir 0\\11 or exalted sign identical with a quadrant. The planet causingthe yogas must be strong.

Mantreshwar extended this pinciple and according to him, ifstrong Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn in their own/exaltedsign are placed in a quadrant from Moon sign also, they shall form therespective Panch Maha Purusha Yogas.

We can call the first kind of Panch Maha Purusha Yoga assuggested by Parashara as first rate Panch Maha Purusha Yogas ifsuch a planet is in quadrent from the moon then it is not proper PanchMaha Purusha Yoga it is only a second rate ofYoga.

Prof. V.K. Ayer added a new dismenssion in it by saying thatsuch a planet could be in trine to the lagna. We are hesitant to acceptthis as a Panch Maha Purusha Yoga as suggested by Prof. V.A.K. Ayerin his "Everyday Astrology" in the absence ofany authoritative reference.

Results:

Hamsa Yoga: The native will possess a handsome body, he willbe liked by other, he will be righteous in disposition and pure in mind.

Malavaya Yoga: The person will have a well developed physique,will be strong minded, wealthy, happy with family, will commandvehicles, endowed with clean sense-organs, renowned and learned.

Sasha Yoga: The native will command good servants. He will behead of a village or a town or even a king.

. Ruchika Yoga: The native will have a strong physique, farmer,well versed in ancient lore, king or an equal to a king. He will have anattractive body, charitable disposition, wealthy, long lived, leader ofanarmy, or a conunander.

Bhadra Yoga: The native will be strong, will have well-developedchest, well-proportionate limbs, will help relatives and will live upto agood old age. He will be highly learned.

The proposition that these Panch Maha Purusha Yogas can becaused at times in 24 hours does not appear to be sound as the planet(of it is in its own or exalted sign) causing these Yogas will in one Rasiduring those 24 hour and it will be in Kendras for 4 Lagnas and not forall the 12 lagnas.

73

Further generally speaking Venus will be in its own or exaltedrasi for 3 month in a year to cause Malavaya Yoga. Similarly Mercurywill be in its own or exalted Rasi for 2 months in a year, Mars will bwillbe about 4Yz months in I Yz year. So far Hamsa Yoga is concerned it canbe formed during 3 years only in a period of 12 years and Sasha Yogaduring 7Yz year in a period of 30 years.

The Factors for singling out the effectiveness are as under :

(a) Dasa of the planet causing Yoga becomes operative in the lifetime of the person especially in between 20-70 years.

(b) A planet which is very close to the mid point of the angle givesvery good results, farther from it, will diminishes the effectivenessof the yoga.

(c) The planet causing Yoga is not combust, gets divisional strength,obtains good position in Navamsa etc., Ashtaka Verga,Shadhabala.

(d) The strength ofthe Yoga diminished ifthe planet causing Yoga isbadly posited, conjunct or aspected by malefics.

(e) The lordship of the planet ccausing yoga is good and it does notown bad houses.

(f) The planet causing yoga shouldnot be in conjunction with maleficplanets.

In short, we can say that in order to be fully effective. these yogsshould be formed without flaws i.e., the planets causing them should befree from any kind of usual affiiction.

The most effective Panch Maha Puruska yoga will be causedwhen a planet is in 10 House from the lagna and in its exaltation signand is forward moving its exaltation point, reason being the l Oth is thestrongest quadrant and the planet is very close at its exaltation pointand when strong Lagna, Lagnesh, the Moon and the Sun also givestrength to it.

Dasa Results : Results of these yogas are specifically and verypronounced during their Dasas, Antardasa and Pratyantaras.

Q.33. What is Neech Bbagya Yoga? What are the five waysby which it is determined? What is its effect?

Ans. : A debilitated planet is a liability, but in certaincircumstances this liability is converted into an asset in certaincircumstances and then it becomes Raj Yog Karaka.

Mantrcshwars Phala Deepika ennumerates 5 following kinds ofNeecha Bhanga Raja Yogas.

(i) When the Lord of the signs where the planet is debilitated in,as well as the planet which would be exalted in the depression signs ofthe debilitated planet are in Kendra from the Moon. According to B.Surya Naraina Rao, Neecha Bhagya Raja Yoga is formed.

Other interpretation is when the Lord ofthe sign, where the planetis debilitated, as well as the Lord ofthe exaltation sign ofthe debilitatedplanet, are in a Kendra from the Mars, this Yoga is formed. The secondinterpretation appears to be second for Markesha, reported to lord ofexaltation sign of the debilitated planet in sloka 27,29 and 30 ignoringthe planet which would be exalted in the depression of the debilitatedplanet.

Third interpretation is that it is formed when, the lord ofthe sign,where the planet is debilitated in, as well as the planet which would beexalted in the depression sign of the debilitated planet and/or the Lordofthe exaltation sign ofthe debilitated planet, are in Kendra either fromthe Moon or Lagna.

Following illustrations would clear the three situations:

Sat

Yen

ManSun

Moon

Here Mars, the Lord of the depression sign of the Saturn is inAries are in mutual Kendra this Yoga is formed. As interpreted by B.Surya Naraina Rao, Venus is not to be taken into consideration. Butaccording to second interpretation it is not, for Venus, the lord of theexalted sign (Pisces) and Saturn is not in mutual Kendra from the Moon.

75

Yen Sat Moon

Sun Lagna

M.rs

According to the third interpretation, this yoga is formed in thiscase for Venus, the lord of the exaltation sign of Saturn is in Kendrafrom Moon, Mars, dispositor ofthe Saturn is in Kendra from the Lagna.According to first interpretation there is no such yoga for the Sun is notin Kendra from the Moon. According to Second it is not there, for Marsis not in Kendra. From the Moon, and Venus is in Kendra from theMoon.

Though Mantreshwar said a person having such a yoga would be"Dharmika Chakravarty Raja" it should not be literally interpreted andit should indicate that if a person having authority over thousands ofman and would be religious, enjoying all the comforts which were usedto enjoying by such kings.

(ii) It is also formed when the Lord ofthe depression sign ofthe debilitated planet as well as the Lord of the exaltation sign of thedebilitated planet are in Kendras from each other.

Thus other interpretation ofthis rule is that it is formed when thelord ofthe depression sign as well as the planet which would be exaltedin the sign of debilitation of the debilitated one is in Mutual Kendras.

Sat

YenSun

M....

Lagna Moon

16

According to first interpretation, Mars and Venus both in Kendrafrom each other this yoga is formed and Sun is of no relivance.

According to second interpretation this Yoga would not be formedif Sun was not there in Kendra and Venus is ofno relevance.

According to Mantreshwar ifthis yoga is formed, the native shouldbe a Chakravarti king, obeyed by all Bhoopalas. But literal interpretationwas to be avoided and it should indicate position of authority overthousands of man, and all comforts of life for the native.

(iii) It is also formed, when the debilitated planet is fullyaspectedby its dispositer. See illustration.

LaIDa Sat

Moon Mars

Sat

Sat

Here there shall be cancellation ofdebilitation for Saturn placedin Taurus would be aspecting Mars. It would be similarly formed whenSaturn is either in Libra or Capricorn for it would be aspecting Marsfully. According to Mantreshwar this yoga would be weak if thedebilitated planet is in 6th, 8th or 12th house. Its, results are that thenative should be famous and Prthivendra owning a lot of land andliving in protection offort, it should indicate high status and all kinds ofcomforts.

(iv) This yoga is also formed, according to Mantreshwar, whenthe lord of the sign, where the planet is debilitated in "or" the lord ofthe exaltation sign ofthe debilitated planet is "either" in Kendra fromthe Lagna or the Moon. This should be the weakest type ofNeech BhagyaRaj Yoga for only one of them is required to be in Kendra from Lagnaor Moon.

(v) Mantreshwar repeates the same configuration as mentionedin (iv) again in sloka 30 of 7th chapter of Phala Deepika. It is alsoformed when the lord ofthe sign, where the planet is debilitated in and

77

the lord of the exaltation sign of the debilitated planet are in LagnaKendra or even if both of them is in LagnalKendra.

In Yoga (iv) and (v) both according to Mantreshwar, native woulda Chakravarti King.

Dr. B.Y. Raman has given some other yogas functioning uponthe debilitation, leading to very favourable results.

When a plenat is in debilitation but with rays i.e., free fromcombustion retrograde, and occupy favourable position, Raja yoga iscaused.

The person will attain a position equal to a ruler and will commandall the stigma of royalty.

Neecha Bhagya

(b) When planet is debilitated in rasi occupies exaltation Navamsa,the native becames a ruler or equal to him in wealth, power andinfluence. (I & 2-Mars and the Sun through debilitated in Rasiare exalted in Navamsas.)

(c) When the lord ofNavamsa occupied by a debilitated planet shouldjoin a quadrant or trine from Lagna, which should be a moveablesign and the lord ofthe Lagnashould also be in a moveable sign,a Raj yoga is formed and the native becomes a ruler or an equalto him.

(d) When (i) The debilitated planet should Lagna Lord; (ii) Rahuand Saturn occupy the 10th, (iii) and aspected by the Lord of the9th; Raja Yoga is caused and native becomes a ruler or an equalto him.

In conclusion, generally the results ofNeech Bhagya Raja Yogaare similar to other Raja Yogas i.e., the native enjoys high status andposition, good health-wealth, happiness and fame. Experience shows(i) the native generally rises from low position to very high leveldepending on the strength of the planets involved in cancellation ofdebilty; (ii) "Jeeva Sukh" i.e., happiness from the particular relationindicated by the sign where debilitated planet is pointed, is deficiente.g., Saturn in 4th, as 4th indicate lack of happiness from the side ofmother.

Dasa Results : If the Raja Yoga causing planets are intimatelyconnected with the Sun or the Moon, political power pay result duringthe Dasas ofthese planets; ifconnected with Mars, one may became anofficer in Army or Police, or Magistrates and Judge who deal with

78

Police;during these Dasas, provided l Oth is connectedwith them. Venus,Mercury gives knowledge. Jupiter and Satumgives philosophyas results.

Experience also shows if the planets involved in cancellation areconnected WIth 4th, 8th, 12th they will certainly cause troubles also.Thus for good results all the planets involved should not be situated in6th, IHh and 12th.

Q.34. What are the 4 accredited ways in which "Sambandha"takes place between two planets. "Accredited Sambandha betweenplanets".

The ways in which Sambandha takes place between two planetsreally 5 and not 4 and they are given as under:

(I) Conjunction: When two planets are posited in one sign.

(2) Aspect: When two planets aspects each other.

(3) Exchange: When the two planets are posited in each other rasis.

(4) Sthana Drishti Sambandh : When a planets is aspected by itsdispositer.

(5) Constellation: When a planet is in the constellation ofother andthe Sambandha is very strong if two planets occupy each other'sNakshatras. It is unfortunate that this combination is generallyoverlooked by the Astrologer's while the Nakshatras are the basisof all imporatant Dasa systems.

Results of the planets are affected by these relationships or\"'< Sambandhas.

Q.35. What is combustion of planets and how does it effect ina chart?

Ans. : For combustion certain distance between the Sun and otherplanets is taken into consideration. Logic being that the close vicinityof the Sun hinders good result of a combust planet. If the planets arewithin the following degrees on either side of the Sun mentioned againsteach planet, it would result in combustion-

(a) Moon _12°

(b) Mars-17°

(c) Mercury-14 in direct motion and 12° in retrograde motion.

(d) Jupiter-11°

(e) Saturn-15°

(f) Venus-10° in direct motion and 8° in retrograde motion.

79

Effect of Combustion (General) : According to Mantreshwaracombustion is as bad as debilitation and it follows that the benefic valuesof the planet would be zero. But he adds a footnote to the aboveevaluation and according to him the above result should follow onlywhen combust planet is functionally benefic, but when a planet isfunctionally malefic these result would be least beneficial and totallyevil. In short the combustion of the planet decreases the benefic resultsofa functionally benefic planet and increases malefic results to a greatestpossible extent in case of combustion of a functionally malefic planet.

Specific: The above effects are said to be general. Some specificeffects are given in Saravali which are as under:

(i) Combustion/Conjunction of Moon : The moon conjunct Sunmakes one controlled by women, curt, unethical, versed indiplornacy/hyprocrisy, (Kute-Vid), wealthy, expert in selling andpurchasing liquors and sinful.

(ii) Sun conjunct with Mars : It makes one daring, courageous,obstinate, strong, indulging in lies, sinful, and interested in killing.

(iii) Sun conjunct with Mercury: It makes one a good subordinate,gives fluctuating riches, makes him soft spoken, treating goodname as his wealth, reputed, favoured by the authorities, bestamong righteous, wealthy and strong and having good features.

(iv) Sun conjunct with Jupiter: It makes one charitable, confidentof the rulers, keen witted, earn with the help of the friends andpreceptor. It is experienced that sometimes it causes sorrows fromthe side of children.

(v) Sun conjunct with Venus : It makes one skillful in handlingweapons (or instruments), have weak eye-sight, in the latter partofthe life, interested in (social gathering) stage, dance and drama,and becomes rich with help ofwomen. (Marriage may prove luckyfor such persons but wife may be source of some anxiety).

(v) Sun conjunct with Saturn : This combination makes, oneinterested in status, righteous, religious, devoid of wife andchildren (?), devout follower of his own custom and traditions.

In short combustion decreases'Jeeva Sukha' granted by planets,but allows 'Yash Karaka' traits ofcombust planets-excepting the Moonand Mars. Combust Moon and Mars do not give fame and as such badfrom that angle. To this extent they are inhibited.

80

Cancellation of Combustion results: (i) By benefic placement:According to Prithyusas, dasas of planets that are debilitated, occupyinimical houses or combust, but which however occupy exalted, friendlyown Navamsas will give mixed results and its later half will proovebeneficial.

Mantreshwar supports this view but adds that similar resultswill be obtained when the planet is place in Kendras or trikonas.

(ii) By benefic aspect: Prof. VK. Ayer is of the view that beneficplanets by their aspect could also relieve the evil effect of thecombust planet.

(iii) By benefic conjunction : Benefic conjunction may also relievethe evil effect provided that planet itself is not combust.

(iv) Placement in benefic constelation : Placement ofcombust planetin the constellation ofLord of9th or 5th or Lagna may also relieve,provided they are themselves very strong.

One must remember that for Pindayurdaya calculation, Ayugranted by planets other than Saturn and venus, is reduced only to theextent of50%. But no such reduction is made in case ofcombust Venusor combust Saturn.

Conclusion :

1. Combust planets are inhibited, without any doubt.

2. When they are, however, placed fortunately in good house, orgood Navamsas, or well aspected, or otherwise well related with

r " other beneficial and strong planets, their dasa, antardasa etc. givesmixed result and their second halfofthe dasa etc. proves fortunate.

3. Combust planet do not preclude-more fortunate planets fromyielding some benefic results during their sub-periods, in the dasaof the impungned planets, thus accounting for mixed results.

4. Even when none of the above in built reliefs are present, they donot spell doom, as experience has shown.

5. According to Prof. VK. Ayer much of the defects arising out ofthe combustion of any planet, are capable of being overcome byproptiation.

Q.36. Define Adhi Yoga and in what way does it helps orhinders progress in life?

Ans.: Adhi yogas are oftwo types: (i) Lagnadhi Yoga and (ii)Chandradhi Yoga, in general astrological parlance. But Adhi Yoga is

81

defined by Varaha Mihira in Brihat Jataka means only Chandradhi Yoga.According to Varaha Mihira's Brihat Jataka : ''When benefics occupythe 6th, 7th and 8th from the Moon, cause Adhi Yoga and the result isthe birth of a commander, a minister, or a king. Persons born in thisconbination (Adhi Yoga) will be gentleman, happy, surrounded withluxury or would vanquish defeat his enemies, long lived, and rejectedby the diseases."

It is not necessary that the benefics namely Venus, Jupiter andMercury should be posited in 6th, 7th and 8th separately. They couldbe in one of these houses. Thus form 7 kindsofAdhi Yogaor ChandradhiYoga. They are:

(1) All the three benefics in 6th;

(2) All the three in 7th;

(3) All the three in 8th;

(4) Two of them in 6th and 8th in 7th or vice-versa;

(5) Two of them in 7th and 6th in 8th or vice-versa;

(6) Two of them in 6th and the 7th in 8th or vice-versa; and

(7) One in 6th, one in 7th, and one in 8th.

According to Bhattotpala and Rudra Bhatta for Kingship, it isnecessary that the Moon and these three benefics should be 'Poornabali'i.e., in their full strength;

For Ministership, all the 3 may be "Madhyabali", and

For Commandership, all the 3 may "Heenabali".

According to Saravali, for these results it is necessary that (i)these 4 are not aspected by malefics and (ii) and noneofthem is combust.

Shrutikirti observes that if in these houses are evil planets fromthe Moon, then they would produce the same result, but the person willbe evil minded and tyrannical. But this view was not supported byothers-and rightly so for Papies in 7th and 8th specially in 8th Papisother than Saturn would cause problem about longevity and there wouldbe the question to enjoy Adhi Yoga. These possibility ofPapad hi Yogais ruled out.

But some think that there could be partial Adhi Yoga, ifout of3benefics two are in 6th, 7th or 8th. Dr. RV Raman is ofthis view. Thisrequires further empirical study.

82

Lacnadhi Yo.aAccording to Parashar Lagnadhi Yoga is formed when :

(i) benefics occupy 7th or Sth;

(i) and they are not aftlicted by rnalefics aspects etc., the native willbe happy and learned.

Saravali, Jatak Parijata and Phala Deepika and Jataka DeshMarg also refer to this Yoga. According to Jataka Parijat, this yoga isformed in 3 following conditions :

(i) Benefics should be placed in 6th, 7th and Sth;

(ii) These benefics should neither be conjunct, nor aspected byrnalefics in these 3 houses; and

(iii) 4th house should also not be occupied by any malefic.

Saravali does not mention absence of malefic in 4th house, forformation of this yoga.

Results: According to Jataka Parijata, the native will be authorof many shastras (or books), learned as well as courteous, powerful,having his position, of spiritually high level, famous, rich andmeritorious. For these results 4th house should not be occupied by amalefic.

Saravali refers to Yavana Raj and confers definition to first twocondition. According to Yavana Raja, the native will be, a secretary or

~"- a judge or a king, having many wives, long-lived, healthy, fearless,.", courteous and happy.

Generally speaking both these Yogas help in progress in life­but Karakatwa of planet placed specially 8th may sutTer. SuppossingMercury is in 8th, man may not have "Jeeva Sukha" from this maternaluncle or cousins. There may be problem from the side of children ifJupiter is placed in 8th. Things must be seen from this angle for none ofthe authorities referred to this aspect. However Venus is an exception.

Q.37. How will you find from a girl's chart whether hermarriage will be (a) arranged (b) a love marriage (c) intercastemarriage (d) early or late marriage (e) successful or otherwise (f)denied. Explain?

Examine the given chart on the above counts and and answer:Asc. 221021; Sun 229032'; Moon 90016'; Mars 286 0 51; Mere 2190

16'; Jup 19076'; Venus 2690 52'; Sat 108057; Rahu 2920 18'; Balanceof Jupiter Dasa at birth yrs 3-8-5 days. Born on 5-12-1952.

83

Ans. : (a) Arranged Marriage:

For arranged marriage unaffiicted 5th and 7th houses and theirlords are the indicators-for 7th house indicates the life partner and 5thhouse rules 'Buddhi' (inclination) or Poorva Punya. 12th house should

; similarly be unafilicted alongwith its lord,as it indicates-bed pleasures.8th house signifies sexual relations, hence 8th lord and 8th house bothare to be looked in to. This must be seen in Navamsa chart and theMars chart for surer results.

When (i) 7th house and its lord free from malefic inflluence andoccupied by a Shubha, excepting Venus or aspected by Jupiter or.mblemished Mercury, or strong Moon, and (ii) 5th house and 5th lord~: also similarly placed, marriage is going to be arranged in,are approvedform.

Similarly, when Venus is not placed in 7th and 7th house or itslord is in Subha Kartari marriage shall be arranged/marriage in anapproved form.

When Jupiter is strong and influenced by Lagna, 5th or 9th lordand it is aspecting 5th and 7th houses or their lords, the native may notthink of marriage excepting in a arranged and approved form.

Unafflicted natural 'Karma Trikona' Houses i.e., Gemini, Libra,and Aquarius also indicate only arranged and approved and successfulmarriage. This should also be seen in Navamsa chart.

Untainted Venus placed in 4th or 5th or 9th or placed in ShubhaRasi and Navamsa in any Kendra or Trikona or 2nd or 12th also indicate

/

arranged and approved marriage.

Love Marriage : ,

Combination of Venus and Mars or Moon either by conjunctionor aspect, or in each other Rasi or one is in the Rasi of the other, withafflicted with 5th or 9th or their lords show inclination towards lovemarriage. Sometimes Mars or Moon is replaced by the Sun being the5th lord of the natural Zodiac. Presence ofRahu or Saturn in 5th or 7ththe Subha Vargas may also indicate love marriage in one's own castesbut of lower family.

!For love marriage with the approval ofthe parents and elders and

in their presence, benign aspect of Subha or the 9th lord from ShubhaRasi and Navamsa on the above combination is a must. Same could bethe result of the above combination when placed in Kendra or Trikonain Subha Rasi and Subha Navamsa and higher Subha Vargas may

84

indicate ever lasting love at first sight, with a person ofone's own casteor community.

Un afflicted and unaspected Venus in 7th, in Shubha Rasi in thecase ofmale and similarly situated Mars in the case offemale, one hadto get love marriage.

Inter Caste Marriage:

According to Maharishi Parashar "When the waning Moonoccupies 5th place, and 7th and 12th houses are associated with maleficplanets, the marriage with a person "lower caste takes place".

Rahu Ketu in 7th and ifthere is Papa Kartari to Mangalya Sthanai.e., 8th indicating Dharma Nash, or affliction to 8th house by Saturnor Rahu in Papa Rasi and Navamsa, with afflicted 7th house or 7thlord, or afflicted Venus indicate intercaste marriage. These combinationshould also be seen in Navamsa chart also.

In all such cases, natural Karma Trikona or their Lords havebeen found to be afflicted alongwith affiiction to 8th hosue and/8th lordby at least 3 factors either 2 malefic aspects and 3rd by position of amalefic or Papa Kartari or Papa Nasa position.

Early Marriage :

Following combinations indicate possibility of early marriage:

(a) in case of male, strong Moon in 3rd, and in case offemale strongSun in 3rd (i.e., 9th house from 7th);

(b) IfVenus or Mars, either one planet and lord of 7th are in Cancer,Scorpio, a Pisces i.e., Jala Tatwa Rasi;

(c) If powerful Moon occupies 5th or 7th place from Lagna andNavamsa Lagna;

(d) If lord of Lagna and 7th are posited near each other in ShubhaRasi and Navamsa;

(e) 7th Lord, or 7th house or Karaka is in Shubha Kartari;

(f) Lagnesh or Lagna is Shubh Kartari;

(g) Fast moving Shubha like waning Moon, Mercury and Venus isplaced in 7th in Shubha RasilNavamsa, and there is no afflictionto such planet, with strong 7th lord or strong Karaka for 7th; and

(h) 7th house, 7th Lord and disposition ofthe 7th are in ShrishodayaRasiland or Navarnsa.

Brihat Parashar gives a number of combinations of very early

85

marriage. In changed times they can be indicating tendency of earlymarriage. They are as under :

(a) Lord of 7th in Shubha Rasi : Venus exalted or 0\\11 house. (5-9years)

(b) Sun in 7th and 7th Lord Conjunct with Venus. (7-11 years)

(c) Venus in 2nd and 7th Lord in 11th. (10-16 years)

(d) Venus in Kendra and lord ofLagna in Rasis 10-11 of Saturn ( IIyears)

(e) Venus in Kendra and Saturn in 7th from Venus. (12 years)

(f) Venus in 7th from Moon and Saturn in 7th from Venus. (18)

(g) Lord of 2nd in 11th and Lagna Lord in 10th. (15 years)

(h) Lord of 2nd in 11th and 11th lord in 2nd. (18 years).

Late Marriage:

Folowing combinations indicate propensity to cause delay inmamage:

(i) . Saturn in first, 4th, 5th, 7th, 8th, 10th and 12th, from Lagna, orMoon or Karaka Venus in case ofmale and Jupiter for female;

(ii) The Sun in 1st, 7th or 8th;

(iii) Venus or 7th lord in unfertile Rasis Gemini, Leo, Virgo,Saggitaruis.

(v) Afflicted or Combust Venus;

(vi) Retrograde Saturn and Jupiter;

(vii) ( Exchange between 7th and 8th and their affiiction;

(viii) Affliction of Lagna or 7th lord by 6th lord;

(ix) Exchange between Lagna Lord and 7th lord;

(x) Aftliction to 2nd, 7th, 8th, house and their lords.

For each such affliction about 6 months delay in marriage is found.

It is gathered that marriage, related to Jal Tatwa Rasis and lordssuch of Venus, Jupiter and the Moon indicate water, and Jupiter alsobeing lord of Pisces indicate water. If these three afflicted marriage iseither delayed or totaly denied. 4th indicating Sukha, 8th relating tosexual relattion and 12th bed room-if Sun-fire, Mars-fire andSatum-dry planet and Rahu Tridosa Karaka afflict JalaTatwa factors,then for marriage environment is not congenial. In this light now see thefollowing combination given by Parashar :

86

(a) Venus in second (in natural Zodiac in Prithvi Tatwa Rasi) andLord of 8th with Mars (Then Prithvi Tattwa and Agni Tatwaaffect two marriage factor)-Marriage in 27 year.

(b) Lord of Lagna (representing agni Tatwa) in the Navamsa ofSaptamesh and Saptamesh on 12th (representing Jal Tatwa

11 Balances the agni Tatwa ofLagnesh) leads to marriage in 23rd of26th years.

(c) Lord of 8th in 7th (representing air) and Navamsa Lagna(representing Air) is associated with Venus leads to marriagearound 25 (in case of female) and 37 years in case of males.

(d) Venus in 5th (9th from 9th) (representing fire) and Rahu either in5th or 9th (representing fire and Trkdosha) leads to delayedmarriage in 31 to 33 years.

(e) Venus in 3rd (representing air) and 7th lord in 9th (representingfire) leads to delayed marriage in 27th or 30th year.

It appears that airy and firy tatwas together cause delay and theincreasng influence on 7th, 7th lord and its Karaka cause delay or denialof marriage. See other combinationw which cause delay in marriage.

(i) Venus or Mars, two planets i.e., not less than 3 years in AriesRasis andlNavamsa indicating firy prakruti.

(ii) Lagna or Chandra falling in unfertile sign and/Navamsa Gemini(whirlwind), Leo (fire), Virgo (earth) and Saggitarius (fire)­(should believe that Virgo does not fit in this class it may cause

lIl-. j, delay in both of a child-probably not in marriage.)

(iii) If 4 malcfics, Sani, Mars, Rahu and Rahu in are together orseparately situated in 2nd, 5th, 7th, 8th or 12th from either Lgans,or Moon or Venus, marriage ofthe native is delayed to the extentof causing headache for parents;

(iv) Moon-Saturn combination in lst, 2nd, 7th and 12th.

(v) Lord of 7th and Venus in case of Female and Jupiter in case ofMale are aspected by Saturn.

(vi) Malefics 6, 8 or 12, Papadhi Yoga.

(vii) Lagna, Moon and Sun aspected by malefics.

Denial Marriage :

(i) If either Venus or Moon Rasi is (a) conjncted with aspected bySaturn, and (b) is situated in Nakshatras of Saturn. Pushya, (8)Anuradha (17) and Uttar Bhadrapada (26) in Rasi arid/orNavamsa chart.

87

(ii) When Rasi, Moon and 5th conjoinedwith, are aspectedby Saturn,and placed in Nakshatras of Saturn, in Rasi or Navamsa chart.

(iii) Ravi, Chandra and the 5th lord are associated with are aspectedby Hersel (Uranus).

(iv) Ravi in Libra conjunct of with or aspected by Saturn and Venusat a distance of more than 43° marriage negotiation may fellthrough just at the time of completion ofnegotiations. •

(v) If 7/5 is unoccupied, Moon in case of female and Sun in case ofmale aspected by Saturn occupying scorpio, the marriage is anuncertainty.

(vi) Saturn in square aspect with Ravi or Chandra also makes themarriage on uncertainty.

(vii) If 7th Lord, Lgana and Venus fell in infertile Rasi there in leastpossibility of marriage.

(viii) Ifthe 7th house is occupied, by Saturn and Marswithout beneficaspect, leads to denial ofmarriage.

Successful or otherwise Marriage:(1) According to Parashar, when 7th lord is posited in its own or

exaltation high or vargottamnative would have Pooma Stri Sukha.

(2) If 7th lord not in its own sign or exaltation or Vargottam placedin 6th, 8th or IZth then wife's health and relations with her causeanxiety.

(3) Wherever Venus in case of male and Venus and Mars in case offemale, have papakarti yoga it causes problems.

(4) Affliction to 7th lord, 7th house to Karakas by Mars, Mars andSaturn; Mars, Saturn and Rahu; and Mars, Sthira Rasi and Rahutends to separation with increasing degree of anguish.

It is not unfavourable for marriage. Besides there is no aftlictionto natural Karma Trikona. Sat is exalted and Vargottam. This is anasset for stable and successful married life; after delaying it.

No Love Marriage : Despite aspect of 5th Lord as venus andVenusbeing posited in the Rasi of5th Lord, Love marriage is not possible(i) Jupiter is supposed to keep signing, (ii) Saturn-Exalted-aspectsVenus, and Saturn being disciplinarian is keeping sufficient selfrestraint(iii) 5th Lord from the Moon is exalted and despite its association withRahu would not allow her to fall from prescribed social norms; andpresence ofSun in 5th from the Moon is another balancing factor againstLove marriage.

Delay approximately of 9Yz years.

According to modified version of first combination given byMaharshi Parashar is applicable. Venus is in secondand lord ofMercury

~~. is with Sun (fire). So marriage is possible in 27 years.Now let us see whether Dasa and Antar dasa permits marriage in

27th year. Dasa in 27th year is ofMercury 8th and l Ith LordandAntardasa ofKetu placed in 9th with 9th Lord aspected by Mars.

Mercury is aspecting 7th Rasi chart indicates that marriage ispossible. In Navamsa chart, Mercury is 9th and 12th Lord in its ownNavamsa and Ketu is in 4th aspected by Moon and in 5th from Mercury.This also makes marriage possible.

Saturn has aspected Lagna Lord Mars in 79; Saturn wasretrograde till 9th May 1979. Jupiter was in Cancer aspecting Lagnaand Lagna Lord and it was retrograde upto March 1979. Thus Jupiterhas done the job.

(vi) If Ketu is in 5th and 5th Lord is posited else where aspected bymalefics-and benefic both, the native would adopt a son.

(viii) In case Lagnesh and Panchmesha together or separately placedin 6th, 8th or 12th and aspected by benefics, then native mayadopts a son.

(ix) If a planet in its strength is posited in 5th; 5th lord is combust,then native may adopts a son.

(x) If 5th lord is in 9th, the Moon in Papa Rasi and Lagna lord in atrine;

(xi) If 5th Lord is even sign, in 4th, in Bhavasandhi.

(xii) If 5th Lord, the Sun and the Moon are in even Navamsa orAquarius Navamsa.

(xiii) If 5th lord is Capricorn or Aquarius Navamsa and Jupiter andVenus in their own sign, after adoption of a son, natives wifegives birth to a son.

(xiv) Ifany planet, in its full strength, in Shukla Paksha and Jupiter isin 5th, then native adopts a son. •

Use of Beeja Sphuta:

(a) Beeja Sphuta is posited in odd sign and odd Navamsa, thepossibility of getting children will be certain.

(b) If Beeja Sphuta is in odd sign, even Navamsa, birth of childrenpossible after some delay, through treatment and remedialmeasures.

(c) IfBeeja Sphuta is in even sign, and even Navamsa, no chance ofbegetting a child.

IfBeeja Sphuta or Kshetra Sphuta is joined or aspected by Maleficplants the strength is reduced. Again malefic planets in the 5th fromBeeja Sphuta in the 9th from Kshetra Sphuta render them weak. Neutraiincluding Mercury weaken the Beeja and Kshetra while benefic planetsStrengthen.

Combination of relating to death ofchildren

Combination relating to extinction of - Not applicablefamily

Combination relating 'Dattaka'/adopted son

Now see Yoga Applicable in this case:

Combination of indicating children (a) applies.

(d) applies

- not aplicable.

(iv) -(xii) applies-(xiii) partly applies asVenus is not in itsown sign.

C. Saptamsa: Parashar prescribed Saptamsa to find out 'Putra andPutra Saukhya. Total indcpdnent assement, focussing attentionon Saptamsa Lagna and 5h house, 5th lord and Jupiter to bemade, adopting general principles.

In this case Jupiter is 9th Lord in its own sign aspecting 5th houseand 4th Lord Moon in Lagna. No doubt, 5th Lord is debilitation butwith Venus-thus causing Neech Bhanga. Thus Sun is also aspectedby Lagna lord-but from Neccha sign in Saptamsa. It must be seenthat there is exhange between 4th and Lagna. Aspect by 7th Lord Venusand 5th Lord as 4th Lord is another positive factor.

It is experienced that presence ofJupiter, 5th Lord and SaptamsaLgana Lord in fifth of Saptamsa gives Putra and Putra shukha. In thiscase Jupiter is so placed and it happens to be 9th lord also, i.e., 5th fun5th but in Saggitarius sign indicating some difficulty in begettingchildren. But it certainly does not deny children.

So husband should begetting children.

Use of Kshetra sphuta : only in women

Kshetra Sphuta even Rasi-wife may have children.

Kshetra Sphuta odd Rasi and Even Navamsa, shemay get childrenafter treatment.

98

Kshetra Sphuta odd Rasi and odd Navamsa, she cannot getchildren.

Kshetra Sphuta indicatesthat there are chancesofgetting childrenafter treatment and after operation.

Saptamsa-Karaka-Jupiter, 5th lord Saturn, Lagna Lord Venusall are afficted by the Jupiter, 5th House and Malefics, respectively thisis not helpful.

Rasi Chart-The only plus factor here appears to be aspect ofexalted Jupiter on 5th Lord Mars in 9th otherwise 5th house is aspectedby Sun and Saturn.

In the wife's case-combination for getting children (a) and (g)are applicable.

Combination relating to death ofchildren (e) applies for Mercury12th Lord is in Meena Drekkana and jupiter aspects 5th Lord.Combination relating issues also applies (1) for Lagna lord is in 12associated with Saturn hence, for 7th lord Saturn is with Sun andcombust, hence weak, for 5th Lord Mars is aspected by (DrekkanaLord of 12th Lord) and according to our school of thought by Rahualso.

Conclusion : In such cases wife's chart is more important ascompared to Chart of the husband.

Beeja Sphuta =favourableKshetra Sphuta =Not so favourable.Saptamsa of Husband =favourable.Saptamsa of wife =Not favourable.In view of these contradictory factors it appears that there is no

chance of Progeny out of this wedlock.Q.No. 39: Investigate the nature, and outcome, including the

highlights and shadows of the profession/career of the individualwhose chart is as follows :

Ascdt. 1210 40'; Sun 3210 48'; Moon 3010 I'; Mars 3140 30;Mercury 328041'; Jupiter 111028'; Venus 2055'; Saturn 2780 7'; Rahu3330 58'; Born 5-3-1932 Balance of Mars Dasa at birth 2 years 11months 18 days.

Ans, : In order to assess the chart, it is necessary the following tobe exammed.

Profession and career etc. is to be predicted on the basis oftraitsof Lord of the Navamsa occupied by 10th Lord, 10th Lord from theSun and 10th Lord from the Moon.

In this case 10th Lord Venus is in the Mars Navamsa and lOthLord from the Sun and the Moon is Mars, placed in the Navamsa ofSaturn in Aquarius.

It should be noted that Venus and Mars are Vargottam. Marshappens to be 10th Lord from the Sun and the Moon also. Saturn beingNavamsa Lord Mars i.e., Lord IOth from the Moon and the Sun, hasalso to playa significant role.

100

f., •

Vargottam Venus should give sophisticated profession and thatsophistication should relate to professions indicated Mars and Saturn.Mars being predominant, being Navamsa lord of Venus; and himselfbeing l Oth Lord; Sun and the Moon in Mars and Venus Navamsaindicated that the native should be in service and that to in Govt. Service.In Rasi Chart Mars is with the Sun and the Moon, alongwith Mercurythellth Lord. Mars and Mercury together highly intellectual activitysubdued by the Sun as Mars is combust.

After this now proceed to Dasa. Rahu Dasa is to lay down aambitious path for career. As Rahu is placed in 8th in Pisces and aspcctcdby Jupiter. So there should be hurdles in education due to illness andother disturbing factors-specially in the end of its dasa. At times hemust have got recognition also as Jupiter is aspecting Rahu from itsexaltation sign and Rahu has to give result of its dispositor Jupiter.

Jupiter being 8th Lord in 12th a partial Vipreet Raj Yoga for it isaspected by Saturn 6th Lordalso. Now adopting principle ofSatyacharyaone has to take Cancer as Lagna and during its Dasa Mars becomesI Oth placed in 8th from Jupiter. So Mars becomes important again andto dispositor Saturn is also equally important as it is aspecting Jupiter.

Mars has influence over soldiers, policeman, Surgeons, butchers,employment in annarnent factories and sale of inflanunable materialsor impliments of war; etc.

Saturn produces security, labourer, mines, scientists, insurancemen etc.

He cannot be sportmen, or Rahu in 8th must give impaired health,leaving no room for allowing him to be sportsman.This also rules outpossibility that he could be soldier or policeman.

Mars being 4th Lord, posited with Mercury in Aquarius indicatethat he could have some technical training in Rahu Dasa at a very distantplace towards west from his birth place.This indicates a possibility thathe may be employed in armament factories and sale of inflammablematerials.

At alle could earn as an apprentice in some factories or at the most at low

~'osition in a big organisation for Saturn is Svagrahi and Jupiter isExalted. In Dasama Jupiter is in 3rd aspected by Venus 10th Lord andSaturn is in 2nd from Jupiter in Sthhira Rasi with second lord Capricornthe second possibility. This period is to laydown foundation ofhis career.

Jupiter-Saturn-upto 23-IO-51-Jupiter is in own star or 4thfrom Janma and Saturn is Sadhan 0. 6th star from Jupiter. Though in6th and 12th; yet Jupiter's exalted and Saturn's occupation of its ownhouse as dispositor ofMars, shouldgive promotion. Now see in Dasama.As such both are favourable and both are aspecting 9th and 10threspectively from Dasamamsa Lagna. As such he should get regularappointment or promotion during this period, on account of thissophistication in his job and initiative, and hardwork after a lot ofheartburning and obstacles.

Jupiter-Mercury-They are 6th and 8th with each other andMercury is in Vipat Nakshatra. As such it should lead him to leave thejob all of a sudden-thinking that he would get a jump elsewhere insome other organisation or it could be for some higher studies and beingfor Mercury is with 4th lord Mars from Lagna and 5th Lord for Jupiter.In Dasamamsa it is on 4th with 7th Lord Saturn, which confirms tha hehas to undergo some higher study and training.

Jupiter-Ketu 5-1-1961-Ketu is 5th Nakshatra (Mitra) fromJamna star. So it should proove helpful. Ketu in second, is supposed togive a lot of money. As it is in 3rd from Jupiter,it should be earned byself-exertion. In Dasamsa it is 11thwith 9th Lord and in 9th from Jupiter.He should get a high jump.

Jupiter-Venus: 5-1-61 to 5-9-63. Venus is in Sadhan or 6thNakshatra from Jamna Nakshatra, placed in 9th from Lagna and 10thfrom Jupiter. Venus is Vargottam should give him further jump. In

102

Dasamsa it is 7th, being Vargottam in Dasamsa it has given him somelucrative post.

Jupiter-Sun: upto 23-6-1964-Sun is in Vipta Nakshatra. Placedin 7th from Lagna and 8th from Jupiter. This indicate that he had fallenfrom the grace of his boss and shifted to an unwanted humiliating job.As in Dasamsa Sun is in 2nd and in 12th Jupiter he is to be transferredto distant place.

Jupiter-Moon: upto 23-10-1965-Moon being in 8th fromJupiter and 7th from Lagna should be an uneventful peirod with someuneasiness as in Dasamsa Jupiteris aspecting it.

Jupiter-Mars: Upto 29-9-1 966-Mars is in Sampat Nakshatra,placed in 7th from Lagna and 8th from Jupiter indicate some uneasiness.But professionally he must do well and Mars in 11th in Dasamsa and9th from Jupiter. This should give him one more jump.

Jupiter-Rahu : upto 23-2-1969-Rahu and Jupiter both areKshema Nakshatra, hence helpful in getting good returns. SeeingDasamsa it is in 5th and should indicate further promotion.

Saturn-Saturn : upto 1970-2-26-Satum though in Mitra, islaying foundation for some trouble for it is 6th in its own sign. It is in12th Lagna Lord and Moon. In Dasamsa it is in 4th and aspects both inShatru Rasi. So enmity is bound to be these relating to career leading tounhappiness.It is feared that he might have left the job unhappy or atbest might be on leave, to create room for other, otherwise to start somefactory or business governed by Saturn.

Saturn-Mercury-Mercury in Vipat Star is not favourable. Itis second from Saturn also. It is Atrnakaraka. In Dasamsa it is 4th withSaturn. It indicates fall or loss, is in 2nd lord in Dasamsa.

Saturn-Ketu-Sat-Kctu is to help to the native but to a limitedextent only a leading towards some spiritualism. Nominal gains arealso expected.

Saturn-Venus-It is favourable period and second time he isto be properly rehabilitate the native though with some initial difficulty.

Saturn-Sun-A pretty bad period from the angle of health.

Saturn-Mars-Not a good period for profession. Appears to bebogged down due to health problem.

Saturn-Mars: Is slightly better. But it is not good to rehabilitatehim fully in his profession. As he sought retirement.

Satum-Rahu : Not a good period though he would have definitesource of income. For Rahu in 4th (Keshama) Nakshatra.

Q.No.40 : How would you construct the horoscope when youknow only these: (1) Birth star, (2) month, (3) age (4) place(s)approximate time of birth (night or day) (5) photograph (6) date ofmarriage?

In this case (1) Rohini, (2) May (3) Completed 35 (4) Born inBombay in the early hours of morning (5) fair, tall, healthy, (6) Nov.5.1975, Parents alive.

Ans.: With the help ofcompleted year, month and star, birth datecan be fixed. By seeing approximate time of birth and place of birth,Lagna can be fixed. This Lagna can be checked with the help offeaturesand evnts and be rectified in this way.

Methodology :Date of question =Completed year

Year of birthMonth May

14-12-19545-1954

See both has taken place in = May 1954Now to find Rohini in May

See Ephemris : on 4-5th May 1954 when operated Rohini.

But on 4th, Rohini star was not operating in the Morning. So 5thMay, is the date of birth. 5-5-1954

Thus date of birth is 5-5-1954, place ofbirth Bombay.

Letus proceed with the assumption that birth took place at 5-30A.M. on 5.5.1954 and then see whether it tallies with the descriptiongiven or not.

Bombay Latitude 18° 58'N. 72°50'. The corrections _38° in... 40seconds. Correction to India Sidrial from +06 seconds.

Note: Calculate the Ascendent in usual form. We get AriesAscendant.

According to Jatak Parijat, Physique ofa person shall be accordingto lord of Navamsa of Lagna or to specially strong planet in Kendra

104

and complexion shall be according to lord of Navamsa of the Moon­though some say it would be according to Lord of the Rasi occupied bythe Moon.

Mesha and Meena are Short Rasis, so one has to find Decrgha(Long) Navamsa. The-Deergha Rasi or Navamsa are Leo, Virgo,Libra, Scorpio. If one proceeds in Mesha, then Cancer Navamsa is'Sarna'. If one adopts Leo Navamsa, then 4th, 9th Lord Mars and Moon.Matri Karaka is in 12th in Navamsa. Which are not be favourable. Ifwe take Virgo Navamsa then 9th Lord Venus in Navamsa is 'Swagrahi'and Vargottam in Rahu Ketu axis. It comes around 6 A.M. Then itwould not be early marriage.

Let us proceed backward in Meena Lagna and Meena, Navamsa.Then Jupiter being Navamsa Lord may make the native tall. This doesnot said for parents for these Sun would be Astamamasa. 4th LordMercury, which is not good for parents. Dhanu Navamsa suits for thisangle. For these, in Navarnsa Chart 4th Lord Guru and 9th Lord Sunboth are favourable for parents.

So far complexion is concerned that shall be fair as Mars isNavamsa with Moon.

So time should be 5-30-1.12 minutes = 4.18 A.M. on 5.5.1954.

By seeing from Ephermis Post the planets and construct the chart.The following is the chart.

Q.No; 41 : Explain the Dasa Results of Retrograde Planet?

According to Sarvartha Chinta Mani, following results can beexpected in the dasa of different planets in retrograde motion.

(i) Mars: Fear of serious illness or death, depending on other goodor bad effects, fear and trouble from fire, thieves, and fall fromposition.

105

(ii) Mercury: Prosperity alIround happiness from wife and childrenand the native attends religious discourses like hearing Puranasand gives alms in charity, take dips in an ocean (or in some Tirtha).

(iii) Jupiter: With the grace of authorities prosperity increaseseveryday and the native may undertake journeys to distant land.

(iv) Venus: Retrograde Venus in its Dasa gives a lot of recognitionand honour by the authorities to the extend that he is taken out ina procession with all its grandeurs and the native gets a positionand status apart from getting all kinds of clothing andornaments.This period could consider selection for some highercourse or marriage. It is apprehended that in case Venus is marakathen it may cause state funeral. This could be a period when aperson became head of the party and maybe taken out inprocession.

(v) Saturn: Fear offailure in business or profesion; source and fearoftroubles to brothers specially younger ones.

Dasa Results of Planets : When Dasa and Bhukti Lords are 6thand 8th or 2nd and 12th between themselves. According to Jatak Tatwa"During the Dasa and Antra of Planets placed in quincunox to eachother, the native shall pass through great danger and anxiety." WhenSun and Moon-When Moon is in 6th, 8th or 12th then the native willnot get proper food; may get "Runa-Dana" as if he is passing troughthe period of famine and moves to distant place.

Q.No. 42 : How do transiting planets affect dasa-bhuktipromises? What are the factors that help to indicate the time of (a)marriage (b) child birth (c) accident while eommuting (d) death ofparent and (e) gainof job?

Effects of Transiting Planets on Dasa-Bhukti Promises:

Transit ofplanets modify benefic or malefic results ofdasa-bhukti."How?" is an interesting question. Planetary placements in achartindicate promises or say prosperity to cause a particular event. Youmay equate with an electric bell at your door. Dasa Antardasa comingat an appropriate time is like availability of electric current to the bellor planetary promises and propensitices; transits ofplanets are just likepushing the push button by the planetary force. The Bell would causesound indication depending on the kind of quality of the bell. It wouldcontinue to ring so long as it is pushed and so long current is available.Afixed bell, without current would not ring. It would not ring without

An evnet which is not indicated in a natal chart shall not happeneven in favourable dasa with favourable transit. An event which isindicated would not happen in favourble dasa, iftransit do not support.If planetary promises are code numbered in a lock and dasa-bhukti areall the favourable digits excepting last one-transits ofplanets are thebest digit which causes the opening of the lock.

Phala Deepika in its 16th Chapter gives very important clues totime event with the help oftransits ofplanets (i) For favourable resultsofany Bhava; the bhava and Bhava Lord should be strong, well placedand well aspected.Otherwise one should not expect favourable result.Unfavourable results may be expected.

(2) Result relating to any Bhava to frutify (i) When Lagna Lord passedeither over the house Lord or through the sign and Navamsa inTrine from the house lord or vice-versa.

(ii) When Lagna and Bhava lord either conjoins each other or aspecteach other;

(iii) When Karaka of that house passes over Lagnesh or Rasi;

(iv) When Lagna Lord pases through concerned house.

(3) Though Mantrashwara says that Rasi and auspicious Jupitariantrine aspect causes favourable result to Bhava. But experiencedoes not prove this direction always.

(4) In this connection Lord of 6th, 8th or 12th passes over a weak107

being pushed. Thus favourable or unfavourable results gets ignitiontouch from the favourable or unfavourable transits.

It may be understood as under:

Planetary Dasa Bhukti TransitPromises

LagnaLord or Rasis and 6th,8th or 12th Lord is also weak innatal chart, their passage should not be expected to be favourable.But if both are strong then favourable results relating to thesehouses as well as the house which they are transiting may befavourable.

(5) Inter relationship ofthese planets is also omnipotent and five foldrelationship based on natural and temporal relationship must beseen. Ifrelationship is enimical then one can expect anxiety relatingto concerned house.

(6) We do not accept Mantrashwar's views on transit. We on thebasis ofour experience say that all planets join together to causegood or bad depending on circumstances and either pass overBhava lord of Bhava alongwith Lagnesh or Rasi or Lagna. Toidentify the house which is likely to give result at c. given time,we apply first double transit ofSaturn and Jupiter. Saturn's pasageindicates that hurdles in fructification of result of the transitedhouse being removed and Jupiter indicates "Daiva Krupa" forthe fructification of the result of that house. Transit of Rahuindicates material/worldly connections. Transit of Mars indicates"Satwa" or essence with connected things. Transit of Venusindicates "Sukha" or 'Dukha" or enjoyment. Transit of Mercuryindicates inclination of "Buddhi" towards a particular direction;and transit ofthe Moon indicated "Manahsthi". Transit of Ketuindicates some kind of separation or "Vivakta" relating to that"Bhava".

(7) Slow moving planets indicates consistant continuous intensity andthey are preferred to indicate the year when they jointly come incontact with Lagna, Lagnesh or Rasi on one hand and theconcerned Bhava or Bhavesh. Same is tnre about slow movingKarakas. Fast moving planets indicates concerned monthsandthe Moon may indicate week. Primarily, we confine theconsideration and aspects to "full aspects". However secondarilywe may apply the trine Rasi and Navamsa aspect, as Mantreshwarapplied in respect of pasage of Jupiter.

As has been pointed out earlier, then transits would give resultsonly according to the promises indicated by the birth chart and dasa­bhukti and Pratyantara only. Things not indicated by them canot happen.So transit help in timing an events, and quality of event, indicated bybirth chart and dasa bhukti etc.

It would be useful here to refer to some specific kind of eventswhich are of general interest.

108

(a) Timing of Marriage: Following factors must be considered intiming ofmarriage. (i) propensity to get marriage, (ii) delay factorsif any (iii) Dasa-bhukti and transit.(i) 7th Lord if it is conjunct with Venus, (ii) in dasa or bhukti of

2nflord (or the Navamsa Lord of the Navamsa occupied by it. (iii) indasa or bhukti of 8th lord. (iv) in dasa or bhukti of 10th lord (or 9thlord) or (v) in dasa or bhukti of planet period in 7th and conjunct with7th lord; (vi) Dasa or Bhukti of Venus and Rahu have found to givemarriage in good numbers of cases.

Dasa and Transit together:(i) If the disposition of the 7th lord in Rasi or Navamsa chart is

strong, then marriage may take place in dasa-bhukti of suchdispositor-when Jupiter pases over 7th Lord or in trine from7th Lord.

(ii) If the Moon or Venus is stronger then the marriage may takeplace in Dasa-bhukti of the stronger amongst the Moon Venus;and when Jupiter passes over the stronger of the two or in trinefrom it.Findout the strongest and the second strongest amongst the above

marriage giving planets "during marriage period of life" and expectmarriage in their dasa-bhukti. This may clinch the issue.

During Transit, marriage may take place:(i) when Jupiter and the Moon passes over the 2nd from the Navamsa

Lord of the Navamsa where Lagna Lord is posited.(ii) When Jupiter passes through the house owned by the 7th Lordi

Venus.(iii) When Jupiter and the Moon together pass through Kendras.

Marriage Saham and Marriage:(i) Add the Longitude of Lords Lagna and 7th house. When Jupiter

transits the resultantRasi or its trines, it is favourablefor marriage.(ii) Add similarly the Longtitude of the Moon and Lord of the 7th

house, when Jupiter transits the resultant Rasi or its trines,marriage may take place.Delay factors: According to Dr. B.v. Raman, Saturn's aspects

on 7th house and 7th Lord both from the Lagna and the Moon andVenus delay in marriage. The association or aspect ofthe Lords of the6th, 8th or 12th with the 7th house, 7th Lord and Karaka also ruled outearly marriage.

Reconcilliation and Cohesion between all these factors woulddecode the time of marriage.

109

(b) Timing of Child Birth : In timing child birth following factorsmust be considered :

(i) Propensity to give birth to a child in birth chart including thenumbers.

(ii) Delay factors;

(iii) Dasa and Bhuktis

(iv) Transit.

Dasa and Bhuktis for timing of child birth: One may expectbirth of a child in child procreating age during dasa and bhukties offollowing planets and lords of houses :

(i) Dasa and bhukti of 5th lord from Lagna, the Moon and Jupiter.

(ii) Dasa and bhukti of 5th lord and Jupiter.

(iii) Dasa and bhukti of "Shubhas" posited in or aspecting 5th;

(iv) Dasa and bhukti of "Shubhas" conjunct with or aspecting 5thLord.

(v) Dasas and bhukti of9th lord.

(vi) According to Jataka Parijat add Sphutas of5th lord and 7th lord,and the lord of the resultant Nakshatra, and planets connectedwith it are also capable of giving birth to a child. Supposingsphuta of 5th lord is 3"7°0' and Sphuta of 7th lord is 6"7°0'. Its

Ii; total comes to 9'14° O.Its Nakshatra lord is Shavarana owned bythe Moon. Child birth may take place in the dasa or bhukti oftheMoon as well as dasa or bhukti conjuncts with or aspecting theMoon.

Transits and Child birth:

Following transite tend to give cild birth :'

'(i) Add Lagnesh Sphuta and sphuta of 5th Lord. When Jupiter transitsthe resultant rasi and Navamsa or trine therefrom;

(ii) When Saturn and Jupiter aspect 5th house or 5th Lord inprocreating age, child birth may be expected.

(iii) When Saturn and Jupiter aspect Kehstra and Beeja sphutas ofboth child birth may be expected.

(iv) According to Jataka Parijata add Sphuta of 5th Lord, Jupiter,planets pointed in 5th, and planets aspecting 5th, find out Rasiand Navamsa ofthe resultant; and when Jupiter passes over suchRasi or Navamsa, child birth may take place. (We do not agreewith Jataka Parijata that passage of Saturn over it would causeloss ofchild in absence of other strong malefic factors.)

(c) Time of accident while commuting:

Following factors are required to be seen that help to elucidatethe time of such accident.

(i) Presence of such an accident in Natal Chart.

(ii) Dasa, Antardasa period and transit.

For propensity to cause such accident Jataka Tatwa a number ofcombination are given.Some of them are as under:

(i) If the lord of the 4th is in the 6th in conjunction with Saturn, thenative shall be killed in a carriage accident.

(ii) IfMars is in the 4th house and the Sun in the IOth, death shall bedue to a fall from a vehicle.

(iii) Ifthe lords of the 8th and the 1st houses are associated with thelord of the 4th,the native shall die due to such conveyance aselephant or a horse etc.

(iv) If the luminaries are in the 6th or the 8th house, the native shallbe killed by an elephant or elephant like vehicle say truck.

(v) IfMoon and Mars are in a Kendra or the 8th house, fear ofdeathbe through a Vehicle.

(vi) If the waning Moon is in the 4th house, there is danger from avehicle.

(vii) If Lord of 6th is associated with Saturn or Rahu, then there isdanger of injury caused by horse, (or vehicle).

There are some other combinations which are prone to causeaccidents. In the majority of such cases apart from the influence ofthe8th house, 22nd, Drekkana and Mars, and Ketu. Planets placed in theNakshatras ofKetu associated with Venus or 3rd Lord or planets placedin Nakshatras of venus associated with Ketu and Mars make prone tosuffer accidental injuries. Planets in nakshatras of Rahu also anadditional malefic factors, causes the same results. Intensity increaseswhen Mars and Ketu both afflict 8th, 8th Lord or Lagnesh or Rashis or22nd Drekkana or Lord of 22nd Drekkana. It further increases whenany ofthese, or many ofthese are placed in, Sarpa, Nigada or AyuddhaDrekkana.

These very combination if aspected by benefic or in benefic rasimay not cause death and may cause just some injuries due to vehicularaccident. It may be slightly mind boggling to explain the logic behind it.Behind all these combination, Mars in the 6th house iftreated in CancerRasi would indicte accident. Lagna Lord which indicates vehicle,Debilition indicates fall, Sun in 5th house in Capricorn in Shatru Rasi

indicates unusally agitated mind and Karma Bhava. The mutual aspect.between Sun and Mars would indicate rashness in relation to vehicle,Jatak Parijat adds in this combination presence of Moon in 2nd house,moon being the natural 4th Lord representing vehicle becames marakaand it is dispositor of debilitated Mars, indicating self or person.

If this 10th Lord isfavourably placed, well aspected and friend or intimate friend you cansay prosperioty, promotion,expansion, and gains beyond one'sexpectation during such a period. If it is otherwise, you can imaginewhat will happen. This principle is just an extension of the principlesgiven by Satyacharya.
