The Rohini nakshatra region has 5 major brilliant stars, looking almost like the letter V of the
English alphabet, in the northern celestial sphere (like ^ in the Southern sky) and appear like a
chariot.
Soon the Moon is likely to start pricking the Rohini-Shakata in its every cycle, during the Rahu
transit in Tula to Mithuna (191 degree onward) ranging 6-7years and this affects many mundane
affairs.
We can determine the date of eclipse by obtaining the acute angle of difference between the Sun and
Rahu. The solar eclipse must occur when the this is less than 15 degrees on Amavasya.
Similarly the lunar eclipse is certain when the said difference is less than 9 degrees on Purnima.
Interesting to know:
M.M. Bapudeva Shastri of Varanasi had got a prize worth Rs.1000/- from Maharaja Ranbir Singh,
the ruler of Jammu (India) in the 19th century for his precise calculation of the lunar eclipse.
The Ranvir Jyotir Nibandha, was written under Maharaja's supervision.
In the 17th century, Maharaja Jaisingh, the king of Jaipur (India), had severally achieved
ascendance in the eclipse calculation in comparison to his European contemporaries.
The Saravali declares that birth during eclipse having a node, the Sun or the Moon in the lagna with
another malefic, and Mars in the eighth house, an effective Maaraka Yoga emerges.(vide Chapter
10, Shloka 37).
When the Prana and Deha are more than the Mrityu, the native is likely to live long.
However, if Mirtyu is bigger than the Prana and Deha, a sudden end of life is indicated.
Kraantisaamya is the moment when the declination(Kranti) of the Sun and the Moon become equal
on either side, i.e. north or south of the celestial equator.
durung this century, this will be coinciding with Shubha & Shukla yogas and Ganda & Vriddhi
yogas.
Today, the day of Krantisamya, the middle of KS happens to be at 18 53 hrs. when the Kranti of the
two luminaries is equal as 4:38' N and 4:38'S respectively.
Malefics strongly disposed in houses 1, 2, 5, 9 and 12 confer good and proper knowledge of
Jyotisha.
It conveys that an astrologer is born when several malefic planets, free from other malefic aspect,
occupy any of the above houses.
Dagdha Tithi:
A Tithi in any Paksha, becomes Dagdha when it coincides with a certain weekday as follows:
Sunday- 12 Tithi, Monday-11, Tuesday-5, Wed-3, Thursday-6, Friday-8, Saturday-9.
In 1890 AD Venkatesha Ketkar wrote his famous work Jyotir Ganitam, establishing a tremendous
compatibility with modern research and classics. In this work, he emphasized the importance of the
Chitra Paksha ayanamsha. Sri Bal Gangadhar Tilak, better known as Lokmanya Tilak, also wrote
his book Orion in 1893. Sri Tilak insisted on the point that the ending point of Revati, i.e., Zeta
Picium should be accepted as the commencing point of zodiac, without thinking of Chitraa. This
was known as The Rewat Paksha. Shri Venkatesha Ketkar, Sri Vinayak Shastri and many others
were sticking to the Chitraa nakshtra as this was the only Ayanamsha supported by Vedic system.
contd.
In a Vedic mantra(Swasti Naha Indro Vriddhashrawaha Swasti Naha Pusha.....), Chitraa nakshatra
has been clearly assigned for the purpose.
Four important nakshatras are refered to here by citing the names of their ruling deities.
1. Chitraa, whose ruling deity is the Vriddhashravah (having long ears) or Indra (according to the
old branch of Yajur Veda, Taittriya Shakha).
2. Revati, whose ruling deity is Pusha.
3. Shravana, whose ruling deity is Tarkshya, i.e., Garuda, and on a later stage lord Vishnu.
4. Pushya, ruled by Brihaspati.
This refers to four important points on the zodiac, seeking blessings and comforts from these.
Why has Chitraa (Indra) been cited as the opening nakshatra? The ending point of Revati is the
beginning point of Ashwini or the commencing point of the zodiac. Chitraa and the ending point of
Revati constitute one opposing pair, i.e., 180 degrees apart, while Shravana and Pushya constitute
the other opposing pair. Therefore, the order of citation represents a specific sense..
The nakshatra Chitraa falls at the central point of zodiac since it has 13 nakshatras on either side of
it. When we join these four points by a straight lines the idea of Swastika automatically emerges.
Yamaghanta :
Divide the duration of the day or night, as the case may be, by 15. Take the quotient and multiply it
by the following fixed constants according to the weekday in question.
Add the result to the sunrise or suset respectively for the epoch of daytime or nighttime. the sum
gives us the time of beginning of the Yamaghanta. Fixed constants are:
Sunday-9, Monday-7, Tuesday-5, Wednesday-3,Thursday-1, Friday-13, Saturday-11.
Hipparchus, a Greck astronomer, was the first to recognise Ayanmasha motion in 125 BC, while the
rate of this was not clear to him. When he prepared a fresh list of 137 stars, he found a little
difference, of about 2 degrees, in comparison to the list earlier prepared by Timocheris about 170
years earlier. He thus came to the conclusion that the VE point or the ecliptic was receding
westward.
About 300 years after Hipparchus, Ptolemy mentioned of the Ayana Gati and estimated its rate to be
around 36 per year, according to his famous work Sintaxis.
Several centuries later, Albatani (880 AD), an Arab prince and a well-known astrologer, determined
through actual Vedha or observation the rate of precession or the rate of Ayanamsha as 55.5" per
year.
Initially, ayanamsha, calculated with Ketkar's method, was called Chitraa Paksheeya Ayanamsha,
but after Ketkars demise, people started calling it Ketakeeya Ayanamsha.
Even after this exercise, the issue still remained controversial. Some religious, orthodox,
conservative people were not accepting this fact. Therefore, the Government of India appointed a
committee, namely The Calendar Reform Committee, in 1956 and appointed Mr. Nirmal Chandra
Lahiri as a senoir member, who was the first Indian member of Ephemerides Commision of the
International Astronomical Union (Paris) and the officer-in-charge of the Nautical Almanac, unit of
Govt. of India, now known as Positional Astronomy Centre.
After precise calculations, the committee concluded that on 22nd March, 285 A.D, the star Spica
Viginis (Chitraa) was very close to the ecliptic and located at 180 degrees opposite to V.E. point.
The outcome of the above-mentioned committee has been confirmed by the Astronomisches
Rechen Institut of Heidelberg, Germany. This institute found the calculation to be very correct.
Mr. Lahiri himself called this Ayanamsha as Chitraa Paksha Ayanamsha, rather duly corrected
with the help of modern research.
To calculate true value of Ayana Gati, we should follow the Newcomb Formula.
In 1850, Newcomb, a reputed authority in Astro-Physics gave this formula. Therefore, years elapsed
since 1850 are to be used in this connection. The formula is as follows:
For instance, in 2013 A.D., the number of years elapsed since 1850 is 163.
50.2453" + 0.0002225" x 163= 50.2815675" or 50.3" is the current rate of Ayana motion and it
would be relevant for centuries.
In 2000, it was 50.278", in 2100 A.D. it will remain 50.3", in 2200 A.D., it would be 50.323" and in
2300 A.D. will become 50.345" only, thus practically we can consider it 50.3" per year, relevant for
centuries.
During the 13 th century AD, Naseeruddin, an Iranian astronomer, established an observatory in the
north- west of Iran. He determined the rate of precession as 51.00" per year, very close to modern
value.
During later years, until 1750 AD, after true physical observations, many European, French and
German astronomers came to the conclusion that the rate of Ayana motion would swing between
51" to 50.21129" per year.
Sage Parashara had accepted the rate of precession to be 46.5," Arya Bhatt II to be 46.3" while
Munjala, Bhaskaracharya and Ganesha Daivajna considered it to be 59.9007" (practically 1 degree
or kala) per year.
Like Kaalapurusha, the Samvatsara Purusha is also relevant for yearly predictions which is as
follows:
Krittika and Rohini: Body, P Ashadha and U Ashadha : Navel
Shlesha: Heart, Magha : Vitality, strength and generative ability.
When a natural malefic(s) is conjunct with the Samvatsara Purusha, certain malefic results appear
as:
Riots, great disturbances, natural calamities, floods, storms, cyclones, blazes, earthquake,
instability, etc., are experienced when the body is pricked:
Declining business culture, hike in prices, deserted shopping malls and lack of basic commodities,
if the naval is pricked:
Malefics conjunct with Magha result in flowers, timber, firewood, furniture, real-estate, vegetable
and fruit markets becoming dicey:
When Shlesha is pricked by malefics, crops and other agricultural products face scarcity.
this year, Mars will be transiting in Krittika, Rohini causing blazes, instability, accidents and
unequal distribution of rains.
The moment when the sun enters Ardra nakshatra, is the most important step to observe for Astro-
Meteorological effects.
this year, this is going to happen on June 22, 04 33 hrs. in Vrisha lagna. the chart reveals:
Mars in 6/8 relation with Saturn & Rahu, Tithi 14, Anuradha and most of the planets in a close
vicinity of the sun, may cause uneven distribution of rains and trouble because of fewer availability
of drinking water. price index may uproar.
We find the oldest description of a total solar eclipse in the Rigveda 5.40.8. Where the mantra
reveals that sage Atri, with the help of a sundial, duly fixed on ground, make people witness the
eclipse.
He successfully exhibited the beginning & the end of eclipse as well as the role of Rahu for a
precise calculation.
The Mantra is as follows.
Atri Suryasya Chakshur Aadhat Swarbhaanor apmaaya adhukshat.
A lunar eclipse immediately followed by a solar eclipse (in the same lunar month) gives rise to
marimonial litigations, extra-marital relations, sexual offence and panic in society, states Varaha
Mihira.
Effects of eclipse are highly prominent in the region where the eclipse is seen. It is a matter of great
satisfaction, soon after a lunar eclipse yesterday; a solar eclipse on May 10, 2013 is not visible in
India. However it will last for 6 hours. ( 02 55-08 55 IST)
Astrology in Vedas
Reference Tettireeya Samhita, 3.4.11
Mitro Janan Yatayati Prajanan Mitro Dadhaar Pritvim Ut Dyam
The Sun (Mitra) transmits ability to act as it is the sun who evaluates qualities of those born
(Prajanan).
The sun is the root cause of their worldly acts and controls celestial phenomena. The supreme entity
is quite vigilant about all human Karmas (Krishti) are concerned.
The Mantra reveals that a strong Sun at birth promises good health, wealth, progeny and status.
Astrology in Vedas
Reference Atharva Veda 4.39.8
Dyauh Dhenus Tasyah Adityo Vatsah
The lower sky (Dyauh or lagna) is like a cow and the sun is like a calf. That cow through her calf
disburses the fulfillment of aspirations (Sham), physical strength ( Oorjam) and worldly comforts
(Kaamam) to the native. Simultaneously the strong calf confers longevity, high status (Prathamam)
progeny (Prajam), vitality (Posham) and wealth (Rayim).
Reference Atharva Veda 1.1.1
Ye Trisaptah Pariyanti Vihwa Roopani Bibhratah....
Tri-3 x Saptah-7= 21, the pervasive form of Kaala, forms the sole basis of astrology. Sayana, a well
known commentator of Vedas, opines that these 21 entities include: 12 lagnas + 9 Grahas.
Or different units of time, when considered with reference of three stages of Kaala ( day, night,
juncture of two), it reveals many phases of time and the placement of planets.
Or 7 divisions x 3 lagnas ( lagna, Moon , Sun).
Or 12 houses + 9 Planets.
Astrology in Vedas
Reference Rigveda 10.4.55.3
The ultimate reality, appointed five deities (Mars to Saturn) and two luminaries in the celestial
sphere (Rodasi) to control all beings in different phases (Purodha) , according to their Karmas
(Vivraten), which could clearly be known through Jyotisha.
That is: Seven planets control us and disburse effects of our Karmas.
Ravi Yogas emerge when the moon transits in specific nakshatras reckoned from that of the sun.
Classics advocate that a Ravi Yoga can sterlise a number of blemishes existing at the moment or
Muhurta. Birth within a Ravi Yoga assures success and good fortune. These are considered to be
more powerful than Sarvarth Siddhi yogas. A Ravi Yoga increases the rate of success of conceiving
even through IVF or IUI method.
The Sarvarth Siddhi Yogas are formed when certain nakshatras coincide with a certain weekday.
Amongst these, some are considered to be highly auspicious and are known as Amrit Siddhi (A S)
Yogas.The AS Yogas are fruitful for remedial rituals, starting treatment and spiritual uplift.
Person born during AS Yoga is blessed with longevity, fame, new invention, high knowledge and
virtue. His work or invention guides and helps people for centuries.
As an exception, AS Yogas, are strictly prohibited happening on:
Tuesday for Grah Pravesha;
Saturday for long journey;
Thursday for wedlock.
On the preceded Saturday, a lady teacher of astrology, showing me a book written by a neo-
astrologer, wanted to remove her confusion regarding Kulakula Nakshatras. Unfortunately, there
was a great confusion in the book to differentiate the Kula- Akula & Kulakula Nakshatras and the
Kulakula Chakra.
All sincere readers are hereby advised humbly to take some extra care while relying upon such
modern text books where the subject matter is not clear even to the writers. May God bless the
students?
The KULAKULA Chakra is a different entity and generally used to deduce the day of attack
(Yatra), filing a court case and to challenge his rivals for a clear-cut victory upon them.
KULA Chakra is formed when the following Tithi, nakshatra and weekday, all three coincide:
Ashwini, Krittika, Mrigshira,Magha, P.Phalguni, Chitra, Vishakha, Jyeshtha, P.Ashadha, Shravana
& P. Bhadra;( any of these 11)
Tuesday or Friday;
4,8,12,14,30 Tithis of any Paksha.
This indicates a clear defeat.
AKULA Chakra is formed ,when the following Tithi, nakshatra and weekday, all three coincide at
once:
1,3,5,7,9,11,123,15 Tithis;
Sunday, Monday, Thursday & Saturday;
Bharani, Rohini, Punarvasu, Shlesha, U. Phalguni, Hasta, Swati, Anuradha, U. Ashadha,
Dhanistha, U. Bhadra, Rewati. ( any of these 12)
This results in victory.
The Sarvarth Siddhi Yogas are formed when certain nakshatras coincide with a certain weekday.
Amongst these, some are considered to be highly auspicious and are known as Amrit Siddhi (A S)

The phenomenon with the Moon , is termed as Samagama, while the same between other planets
(Mars to Saturn) is called true Yuti /planetary war.
This may cause reshuffle in southern states and drives away rains in rainy season.
During Samagama with the Moon, the partner planet gains Cheshta Bala. This is a regular feature of
our Ephemeris, published annually.
On May 10,2013, there will be an annular solar eclipse too from 02 55 hrs. to 08 55 hrs. not visible
in India.
Panchakas are not prohibited in general. Certain five acts only are prohibited during Panchakas as
follows:
1. Journey to south direction, 2.Storage of fire wood or fuel, 3. Cremation of a dead body,
4.construction of roof of a building, 5. Purchase or repair of household furniture.
Otherwise auspicious acts are recommended to perform during Panchakas. Rishis recommend three
( Dhanishta, U. Bhadra & Rewati) out of five even for marriage.
Interesting to know:
Waxing Moon or a strong Venus in 12, disburses comfort of a big house/ kothi.
Such Venus falling in good navamsha (except that of Saturn) confers handsome amount of
property.
Sun with mercury in any house or with any benefic in 12: native enjoys parental property either
goodwill or immovable..
Moon in 12 : comforts of own vehicles.
Sun or Moon in 2 or 12 houses : tension/ trouble because of neighbors.
Moon in 12 : loyal and deep responsible towards family and its tradition.
All Yogas above-mentioned, make the native honest, determined and dedicated to his work without
consideration of what he gets back.
Generally the house lord resting in the 12 th from its own rashi weakens the house, it is believed.
Here are some result-oriented exceptions giving highly positive effects:
Lagna lord in 12;
II lord in 1;
III lord in 2;
IV lord in 3;
V lord in 4;
X lord in 9;
XI lord in 10.
The famous work of Ganit Jyotisha namely Leelavati has been written in an interactive manner
between Bhaskaracharya and his wife Leelavati. She was not his daughter as many people advocate.
Abdul Rahim Khankhana (known as Rahim, a Hindi poet) was a good scholar of Sanskrit and
Jyotisha too. He wrote a Jyotish book, viz., Kheta Koutukam.
Ganesha Devajna wrote his magnum opus namely Graha Laaghava on Siddhanta Jyotisha at his age
of 17.
Sage Lagadha, author of Vedanga Jyotisha did his practical observation of celestial sphere
somewhere around Baramula and Leh in J&K state, India situated 34N 54 latitude. The Vedanga
Jyotisha reveals it.
This lord falling close to its exaltation confirms their exalted status in the past life proportionally
declining up to its Neecha rashi.
Akshaya Trtiya, in no way, connects to Holy Ganga as someone writes here on the facebook. Holy
Ganga descended to earth on Jyeshtha Shukla 10 Tithi which is known as Ganga Dussahara or
Ganga Jyanti.
It would be interesting to know that the Aldebaran (principal star or Yoga Tara of Rohini Mandal) is
a red-orange coloured star. It is situated at the left eye corner of Vrisha (the Ox as the Vrisha Rashi
region appears in the sky), thirty times bigger than the Sun and around 65 light years or about 20
parsec away from us (1 Parsec=3.26 light years) while the nearest star, our Sun is 8.3 light minutes
(not years) away.
Another important star of Rohini region, Beta Tauri (Agni) is a white star of lesser magnitude and
falls at the top of the right horn of Vrisha. The Krittika cluster is situated at the neck of the Vrisha
and the Bharani mandala is on the hump of the Vrisha.
Similar to The Vajra Yoga (scheduled under Nabhas yogas), The Peepilika (an ant) yoga emerge
when the natural malefic occupy houses 3 and 9, while natural benefics are in houses 6 and 12.
The Gart (a pit) yoga is formed when benefics in houses 3 & 9 and malefic in 6 &12. These two
confer lack of success.
Similarly, natural benefics in 5 &11 and natural malefic in 2 & 8 form the Nadi (a river) yoga, while
the Nada (a large river) yoga occurs when the planetary placement is reversed. These two result in
good fortune, name and solid contribution to the society, state Yavancharya, one of the founders of
astrology.
Rahu ketu alone do not form the yoga.
Am I a good orator?
In the II house: House of speech
Natural benefic & malefic together make the native talkative, unable to present his opinion in brief,
at times speaking irrelevant. hence, not an impressive speaker.
On the other hand, benefic in II, receiving aspect from another benefic makes a man a good debater
as well as an impressive orator. The result is the same when Vargas of Shubh planets happen to be in
the II house.
Mercury Moon and Mars establishing any sort of relation (out of four stated by Parashara) relation
also prompt the ability to be a good speaker.
rules being given here, cited in the classics and are to be tested by readers.
Will I light the pyre of my parent (give Mukhagni) or perform last rituals (Tarpana Pinda daana) for
them?
Find The Sun (father) or The Moon (mother), in his lagna kundali, whether it occupies a Kendra in
a Chara rashi.
Or the IV( mother) or X (father) lord rests in the invisible half of the lagna chart.
If yes, the answer is negative.
you are supposed to remain absent at the end of your parent (as specified above) or due to reasons,
you are not going to perform the last rituals.
Day before yesterday, a matured student of Jyotish put me under great confusion and I was shocked
to see the following statement he noted down from the web:
The time between two consecutive sun rises is the Solar day and the time between two consecutive
moon rises is Lunar Day or Tithi.
Here is the fact:
The span of time strictly falling between the two consecutive sunrises is a Saavan day or
Bhoomisaavan day. Here the word Saavan means- a day pertaining to the Savan-Yajna or daily
rituals. One year consists of 365.25 Saavan days.
The period in which the sun transits one degree of the zodiac is termed as Solar day. One solar
year precisely contains 360 Solar days which consumes 365.25 Saavan days to complete one full
cycle of the zodiac.
Lunar day (Chandra Din) or Tithi, in no way maintains relation with the moon rise. The duration
of Tithi strictly is a period during which the moon traverses 12 degrees of zodiac. Its extension
varies because of the rate of motion of the moon from 26 hours 47 minutes to 19 hours 59 minutes
causing Tithi Kshaya and Tithi Vriddhi. One Chandra year consists of 354.36 Saavan days.
However, the term lunar day is no more in practical astrological use as it is always more than 24
hours (24 h 48 m 45.83 s on its highest side).
Until the proper Shanti Karma is performed, the native should donate food grains, useful cloth,
fruits and marginal cash on his birthday every year.
And on the same day, he should also do Yajna with Ghee and green stems of grass (Doorva) duly
dipped in Ghee. (108 Aahuti)
On the very day, the native should consume moderate quantity of two meals avoiding any over and
frequent eating. Contd.
To mitigate the blemish at birth, (until the Shanti karma is done) one should recite daily and observe
the following:
1. Prayer to Lord Ganesha;
2. Purusha Suktam (16 mantras from the Yajurveda);
3. Shree Suktam (16 mantars from the Rigveda);
4. Invocation to 9 planet gods;
5. Pouring holy water upon Lord Shiva chanting any Shiva mantra;
6. Caring for trees, plants including Basil (Tulasi);
7. Avoiding seven vices (Sapta Vyasana) and violence to all creatures.
From the house occupied by The Sun in the Sudarshan Chakra, malefic (s) indicate excessive
trouble for the native's father (or for alike relations) in that year.
Similarly, malafics in the fourth from a Shthira Kaaraka manifest troubles to the relative represented
by that Kaaraka.
In the natal chart, weak malefic (s) in the ninth house reduce the comforts arising from native's
father.
This fairly relates to mutual cosmic or Karmic relation among parents and progeny. Soon It will be
revealed without any breach of rules stated in classics,in our next book. i.e., Jaimini Mukta.
The effects of a dasha are greater when a natal retrograde planet moves direct during its dasha.
The planet direct at birth also produces greater results when it becomes retrograde in its dasha.
An exalted planet associated with another neutral planet may manifest chronic disease during its
dasha.
When the bhukti lord, transits in its neecha, inimical rashi or combust, the good of dasha bhukti
considerably declines.
And the same comes forth during its retrogression and transit in a favourable rashi, i.e. Shubha
Panchaka.
For instance, Mithuna Samkranti in 2012 happened on June 14, 22:45 hrs. By adding the above
value, we get 28:54 hrs. or 04: 54 A M on June 15, 2013. In fact, the Sun is going to enter Mithuna
rashi on the same date exactly at 04:56 A M.
This minor difference is caused by a slight difference usually occurring in Suns motion and in the
size of its disc every year.
the above yogas also manifest gain from associates of opposite sex.
Special lagnas :
Special lagnas like Bhava, Hora, Ghati, Vighati and the natal lagna remain the same at sunrise.
Starting from the sun sign, 12 Bhava lagnas rise one after the other at intervals of 2 hours each in
their natural rashi order.
Similarly, the Hora lagna rises at intervals of 1 hour, Ghati lagna at 24 minutes (1 ghati) and the
Vighati lagna at intervals of 2 minutes (5 pala).
Within a span of one sunrise to the next, these lagnas are numbered thus:
Bhava lagnas-12, Hora lagnas-24, Ghati lagnas- 60, Vighati lagnas- 720.
No mention that the number of rising or natal lagnas is also 12. Contd.
Alert: readers are hereby cautioned not to rely blindly up on the computer programs as great
difference appears in the value of these lagnas even if these are claimed to be the most correct. I
dont know what method they adopt for calculation.
Hora Lagna
To know the Hora lagna, the Ishta Kaala is again required.
Assume hours of epoch (Ishta kaala) as rashis and a half of minutes as degrees. Add the value to the
Suns longitude. The result would be the Hora lagna for the moment.
Ghati lagna
Convert the Ishta kaala into minutes and multiply the same by 1.25. Add the product (in degrees) to
the Sun.
Vighati lagna
Multiply the Ishta kaal in minutes by 15. Add the product in degrees to the Sun. The result is the
Vighati lagna for the moment.
Charts of these Special lagnas are prepared similarly as we do the natal lagna. All planets should be
posted in the same rashi that they occupy in the natal chart.
This all is strictly in accordance with the rules stipulated by sages.
Progeny assured even if the house 5 or other significations of progeny are weak

During rainy season, to decide the day of showers, please check the following:
The rising lagna for the moment when Sun enters Ardra. This forms the basis of rains in the rainy
season. Yogas indicating waterfall around the locality are as follows:
This phenomenon happening after sunset is a good sign for rains for the locality in question.
Slight raining at the time of Ardra-pravesha inspires good amount of rains;
The then moon in 4.6.7.8.10.11.12 rashis. These are watery rashis;
Venus and moon together;
Jupiter and mercury in watery rashis;
Strong moon free from any malefic aspect;
Benefic planets close in zodiac;
Mars in karka or behind the sun; contd.
This year, sun enters Ardra on June 22, 04 34 hrs. at night in Vrisha lagna having Venus, Jupiter,
Mercury in Mithuna. Mercury and Venus are on the same degree. Moon in a watery rashi. Mars is
behind the sun. Waxing moon (sudi 13) in Kendra and sun does not transit between mercury and
Venus. This all confirms a worst situation because of heavy rains or flood as well as uneven
distribution of celestial water.
Majority of planets is in watery rashis and are falling in North and North-west direction in the chart
manifesting heavy rains in the Indian region falling in the same direction for this rainy season. Tithi
13 also confirms a flood situation showing early knocking Monsoon.
Following are some canons indicating the field of profession/ work as well as grade of success:
The X lord;
Dispositor of it in navamsha;
The navamsha lord of the lord of X;
Strongest planet happening to be in the X;
Atama karaka and its navamsha lord;
Lord of rashi occurring more frequently in several divisions at the tenth cusp.
The above combinations are to be checked in lagna or from moon, whichever is stronger.
In the Amitabh Bachchans chart, the X from the moon (04 04 25') having Simha rashi in Hora,
Drekkaana and Saptmansha.
The lord of Simha, the Sun is AK and that also falls in Simha navamsha, hence, Sun attains utmost
importance in this regard. Parashara states:
Suryat Aoushadha panyen--- vinod margat.
Needs no mention that the native had worked as a medical representative for years in a Kolkata
based company and then shifted to the cine world (Vinod Marga).
Super Moon:
We know that the point of a planets orbit happening to be at the least distance from our Earth is
called Perigee. This is the point where planets disc looks bigger as seen from Earth. On the 23 rd
June, 2013, 16 30 hrs. Moon will be very close to earth looking bigger than its normal disc.
This phenomenon is known as Super Moon in western astrology. On the occasion, the moon moves
faster (about 15 a day) than its normal motion (around 13 a day).
A planet moving nearer to Earth obtains greater amount of rays, considered more manifesting,
scoring good amount of Chesta Bal with bright rays, hence, it is a matter o f cheering up for people
who are healthy at mind. This is not much suitable for those who are obsessive.
If yes, surrogacy could be successful,when husbands chart obtains any of the following:
Venus aspects any trikona (1, 5, 9) house falling in navamsha of Venus.
Karka navamsha in trikona aspected by moon.
Rashi 10 or 11 in house 5 and moon aspects it.
Majority of vargas in house 5 obtains that of mercury and the moon renders aspect to 5.
Similarly a majority of vargas in Karka and the house 5 is aspected by sun and Venus.
Mercury, moon and the fifth lord happening to be in Saturns navamsha.
Best of Luck.
An Astrologer: The eighteenth Cow
At the time of his heavenly abode, a Guru having 17 cows in his shed asks his 3 disciples to share
his cows in this proportion:
1/2, 1/3 & 1/9
Finding difficult to attain the said proportion (number 17 is not divisible in the said proportion) they
go eventually to an astrologer to resolve the problem.
The astrologer adds one cow from his own shed and thus achieves the total number of cows, i.e., 18.
Now astrologer asks students to take their stipulated share and the mystery is resolved. Look how-
18/2= 9 for one,
18/3= 6 for the second one
and 1/9=2 for the last student totaling 17 cows.
Having solved the problem, he returns back to his place with his own one cow added earlier.
An astrologer, in his practice, is like the eighteenth cow neither getting involved much nor being
indifferent to his client.
The Magha month does normally remain neither Adhika nor Kshaya.
Kartika falls under dual category, sometimes Adhika as well as Kshaya.
Eight months from Phalguna to Ashwin are regular or nitya Adhika.
Margshirsha and Paush can remain Kshaya only.
In the year of Kshaya month, two Adhika months happen within 3 months on its both side as a
matter of rule.
Kshaya month can not be inferred without precise calculation.
In the 21st & 22nd century of Vikram samvat, possible Kshaya months are:
2085 Vikrami- Margshirsha, 2104- Margshirsha, 2123- Paush, 2169- Margshirsha, 2188- Paush.
A Kshaya month always accrues major changes on the globe.
About Bhakoota
An inauspicious Bhakoota is obtained when Rashis are mutually falling in:
a.2/12 - partner to be more and more demanding;
b. 5/9- disorder in having progeny;
c. 6/8- accident or agony.
Similar to Mahapurush yogas in natal chart, strong planet/s in the Vivaha Lagna ( house 1) form a
potential Yoga as stated in the classics having the same name written by several Acharyas, viz.,
Vivaha Patal.

Next Post: an auspicious lagna fixed intelligently loses its good, when?
Krantisaamya or Mahapaata can only occur on the days coinciding with Yogas- Shoola & Ganda or
sometimes Vriddhi and Shubha & Shukla depending on the amount of declination of two
luminaries.
For example, on July 31, 2013 Ganda yoga ends at 07:55 hrs and Krantisaamya starts on 07 :48 hrs
on the same day ending at 19:48 hrs. ( for 12 hours). Adding a half of its total duration (6 hours) to
the starting time ,we get the moment when Kranti of the two is precisely equal. Its coordinates are
as follows:
For information, at 13:48, the sayan sum of two luminaries is 06:0635( 6.5 degrees more than 180
degrees). Hence, the method described in Muhurta Chintamani , based on nirayan sum of longitudes
of the two luminaries is crude.
However, the statement of Surya Siddhanta, up to extent, holds good even after centuries, i.e.,
karantisaamya is at its maximum when the sayan longitudes of the Sun and the Moon obtain 180 or
360.
On the contrary, the Godhooli is auspicious only under the following conditions:
Sages permit to perform marriage only when any other lagna suitable astrologically is not
available.
Godhooli does not fructify, if any recommended lagna is ignored. It is said:
Lagne Vishuddhe sati Veeryayukte
Godhoolikam naiva Phalam Vadanti.
Even if, another lagna is not available, its all good effects are gone, when:
The Moon is in 1, 6, 8 houses (in marriage lagna).
On the day of Krantisaamya;
On Saturdays and Thursdays as the lagna earns Kulikadi Dosha.
In order to avoid the above blemish of Godhooli, one must do the rituals in this manner:
On Thursday, the Kanyadaan should be performed after the sunset only;
On Saturday, the Kanyadaan is to be done before sunset only;
On both days, rest of the rituals could be continued.
Regarding Ashtakoota
Marks obtained in Ashtakoota are all-time important. It is a must to check while you do a Kundali-
Milan. No Guna obtained in a Koota may lead the couple to
Varna- geographical separation, disturbed pregnancy, no mutual tuning in behavior.
Vasya- adamancy, irrational anger, lack of harmony. Two guna obtained here repairs the Varna-
dosha.
Tara- less wealth, progeny and over all comforts. Till Tara, out of 6 Guna, the match should obtain
50% at least. Full Gunas here repair the blemish of above 2.
Yoni- lack of mutual attraction, lacking affection with the passage of time. Full marks here
compensate all three above.
Grah-Maitri- acute difference in opinion, indifferent behavior of children, Till this Koota, 7-8
Gunas drive away the evil of above four.
Gana- disaster in married life, if no 7-8 Guna obtained till Graha /matri as described above. Till
this point, total Guna number should be 10-11.
Bhakoota- if Graha Maitri scores full Guna, this is automatically amended. Im simple words,
Graha Maitri and Bhakoota mutually correct each other.
Out of above seven, every succeeding Koota repairs Dosha of the preceded one.
Nadi- it supersedes all seven Koota. The match scoring zero in Nadi Koota abolishes all good of
match making. Geographical, mental, legal or natural separation, sooner or later, is inevitable.
Blemish arising because of the Nadi Dosha, is irreparable without consideration of breed, caste
and community.

The strong planet, if aspect Lagna, than it becomes Karaka. Further explaining this principle,
Parashar also says if any one planet aspects either two or three or all four of lagna or Hora Lagna or
Bhava Lagna or Ghati Lagna than that planet become Karaka. In case that planet is posited in better
rashi than it becomes best Karaka.
Similarly, if a planet aspect first bhava of Lagna chart or Dreshkona or Navamsha or Dwadamsha or
any other main divisional chart than also that planet becomes best karaka.
The individuals who are desirous to become professionals in Jyotisha or Medical science or Mantra
vidhya the relevance of deep knowledge in these areas can be explained --
Only those will be remembered for immortality in these professional areas who are ready to invest
labour, time etc and have devotion & passion for doing memorable things in life.
So far as Jyotisha is concerned. whenever, we look for combination to become an able Astrologer,
the first and foremost thing come in the mind about the influence of Mercury, Jupiter and Venus in
the birth chart. In fact, its an illusion with which we are living because Malefic planets always help
an individual to become a dedicated Astrologer.
For the stream of educations based on Maths and Science like Medical, Jyotisha, Mantra, Industry
etc., Rishi Parashar says that to get the name and fame in these areas, the malefic planet plays a vital
role.
For example, in the Ambanis chart, the weekday lord is in house 9 in its own navamsha and is
associated with the 11 Th lord in navamsha kundali.
In the Bill Gates chart, the birth is on Saturday and exalted Saturn is in house 5 with Venus and
Sun.
The lord of the nakshatra in lagna (LNL) at birth becomes a potent Kaaraka, when it happens to be
in:
1. Shubha Panchaka in the natal chart;
2. Shubha Panchaka in the navamsha chart;
3. Vargottam navamsha;
4. Associated with or aspected by potent grahas;
5. Other than houses 8 or 12.
6. Kendra or trikona constituting a yoga or associated with any lord of houses 2,3,5,9,11.
The natal Sun scores additional strength as much as it fulfills of the following:
No malefic in houses 8,12 from the Sun;
Constituting Veshi or Vaashi or Ubhayachari yoga;
In the Shubha Panchaka;
The Sun itself rests in houses except 8,12 from the lagna;
Jupiter or Moon in 6,7.8 houses from the sun;
Sun and Moon together in Mesha or Dhanu;
Sun in Tula along with Venus and Saturn;
In Meena rashi in the last navamsha;
Sun, moon and Jupiter together in any rashi and receives aspect from Jupiter;
From Sun, Mars or Saturn in 3,11 houses;
Three or more planets in 3,5,11 houses from the sun;
Sun in Revati, P.Phalguni, U.Phalguni or in Pushya.
Dr. Soumya Kumar and Kartik Shekhar wanted to know:
In Sanskrit, the word Chika means - glow, glittering. thus, the Chikya means- pertaining to
brilliancy. the prefix Duh- hard to face, very sharp. hence, the word Duschikya, in totality, gives
meaning- highly sharp glittering that is not easy to face, difficult to assess its effect at a glance.
A planet, termed in classics as Shoonya Marga Gata, is that having no characteristic, quality, virtue,
hence unqualified to confer any good effect on native. A planet earns this Title, when it is:
Not in Shubhapancha or not even in a neutral rashi in any of Sapta varaga charts;
Receiving no aspect or association from any planet;
In its neecha rashi or happening to be at 180 from its Moolatrikona or own rashi;
Combust and conjunct with the Sun in rashi chart as well as in navamsha;
Along with Rahu or Ketu in the same rashi and navamsha;
In no way, establishing relation with any of the lagna factor, i.e., lagna, lagna lord, LNL, lord of
the navamsha in lagna.
Such a planet even itself estimated to be strong otherwise, is labeled as Shoonya Marga Gata or
remote, cursed with solitariness or helpless.
Dasha of planets described below leads the native to substantial loss of wealth:
Natal chart looking strong from all aspects can also disburse mediocre success, recognition and
wealth, when:
The 4th lord (being the 8th from the Bhagya Sthana)) is weak or placed in house 8 (another trika
of Bhagya) ;
Weak malefic in houses 4&8;
Equal number of malefic planets in houses 6& 12;
Several malefic along with benefices in 6, 8,12;
Jupiter & Saturn both in a Sthira rashi;
Such natives generally trail far behind from his contemporaries of fewer calibers.
Contrary is the effect when the above-mentioned disposition is reversed.
White Money Black Money:
According to the sages Devala and Narada, etc., there are, most similar to that of modern age, two
kinds of money- Shukla or White and Taamasa or Black Here is the description:
Shukla Dhana- Coming through own education, learning or skill, from ancestors, from the life
partner, from children or students, from disbursing knowledge or profession, parental wealth, from
services rendered, consultancy or reciprocated to guidance. And also earned with loyalty and
honesty in your work, business or profession. Devala states:
Shruta (education) Shaurya tapah patni Shishya Yajya Anvatagatam.
Dhanam Saptavidham Shuklam Munibhi parikeertitam.
Krishna (black) Dhana- Received as donation, bribing, gambling, theft, blackmailing, adulteration
or gimmicks. Here is a citation-
Parshvika ( bribe etc,) Dyuta Chaurya Aarti (blackmailing or threatening) Patiroopaka ( fake or
duplicate product) Saahasai.
Vyajena (deceiving) Uparjitam Vittam tat Tamasam udahritam.
Rakhi parva is observed on Shravana Purnima on the day when Tithi 15 is present in the
afternoon.
As a matter of rule, at that time Bhadra or Vishti Karan is prohibited.
Sometimes the above conditions may not fulfill, therefore, learned ones have laid down some
another rules to deduce the day of Parva as follows:
For 144 minutes (three Muhurtas), the Rakhi parva is to be observed on the next day , even if,
Purnima ends much before the afternoon.
If Purnima on the next day remains for less than 144 minutes, the Rakhi Parva should be observed
on the previous day with Purnima in the second half of Pradosha. The classic Purushartha
Chintamani, in accordance of Parashara, states:
Yada Purnima Muhurta Dvya or Traya madhye Kinchit Nyoona tada Aparanhnhe sarvatha tad
Abhaavat, Pradosha Pashchime Bhage Bhadrante dinvat Karma cha Aacharet.
This year, Purnima is present on Aug.20 and ends on Aug.21 at 07:15 IST, hence does not remain
for three Muhurtas.
Therefore, the Rakshabandhana is a must to observe on the 20 th Aug. in the second half of
Pradosha. The Pradosha Kaala for the day extends from 18:55 hrs. to 21:07 hrs. and its second half
starts at 20:01 hrs.
However the second half of Pradosha initiates at 20:01 hrs on Aug.20, but according to the above
exception, Rakhi Parva, in a precise manner, will be observed after 20:47onward on Aug.20 only
after Bhadra.
Rakhi and Holika Dahana, are not prohibited in nighttime till midnight.
Planet happening to be in a Pushkar Amsha (degree) gives rise to the best of its good and boosts up
the chart as a whole. The Pushkar Amshas are ascribed as follows:
In 1,5,9 rashis- the 21 st degree;
In 2,6,10 rashis- the 14 th degree;
In 3,7,11 rashis- the 24 th degree;
In 4,8,12 rashis- the 07 th degree.
Lagna falling in Pushkar Amsha strengthens the chart and curtails bad effect sustained otherwise.
Any planet, even if in neecha or combust, turns highly fructified.
Therefore, Saturn in Mesha at 21, Venus in Kanya at 14, Sun in Tula at 24, Moon in Vrishchika
at 07 and Mercury in Meena at 07 not only hides its malefic effect, but also disburses benevolent
result.
When the above-mentioned planets, according to the Parashari rule, are Kaaraka for the chart,
manifest the utmost benevolence .
This should not be mistaken for Pushkar Navamsha.
Most alike to this modern cult, there was a system of a weekly holiday in the Vedic culture which is
given below:
In these groups, 8 holidays are common, hence, 113 holidays were being observed practically in
India.
Parashara underlining the significance of lagna at Nisheka and Aadhana and states method of
calculation for the two lagnas.
However, the timing of Aadhana is not easy to deduce, therefore, classics reveal a method of fixing
the moment of Aadhana on the basis of the birth chart by reverse application.
On the other hand, modern science reveals almost the same:
1-Out of lacs of sperms, one fortunate sperm meet the egg, coming out from a females ovary, in her
fallopian tube.
2- this fertilization may occur within an hour or after several hours.
4- Longevity of an egg and of a sperm is around 36 and 72 hours respectively.
5- However, fertilization of young egg and sperm is highly desired.
6- A fertilized zygote finally gets established in the uterus.
besides Muhurtha for Garbhadhaana, following elements are prohibited in general as well as for
individuals for Copulation meant for progeny:
Three Gandanta;
Birth Nakshatras of the couple;
Vadha Tara;
Lagna falling 8 th from their natal lagna;
Kraantisaamya;
Date of demise of couples parents;
An eclipse day;
Ashwini, Revati &Magha,
Bhadra .i.e. Vishti Karana;
Shashthi & Rikta tithis
Tuesday & Saturday;
During dawn & dusk.
wanning moon, Samkranti day, Ashatamis & Ama Purnima are restricted under general rules
applied to the Muhurta.
In the last decade of the 20th century, The Royal Astronomical society of Britain has published a
map of rashis, where a new 13th rashi. i.e., Ophiuchus was shown.
This cluster of stars looks like a man having two snakes in his hands and it contains stars of fewer
magnitudes, not comfortably seen in the sky.
The word Ophiuchus means a man with snakes. A very long snake in his left hand is aiming his
head, while another long snake in the right hand aims his feet. it is located between Vrishchika &
Dhanu rashi mandala.
Some people still keep rejuvenating the issue and criticize Indian astronomers left and right. Let us
comprehend, why Indian astronomers have ignored it.?Is it a rashi indeed? Contd.
While only one star located at feet of the said Sarpadhara is about 10 away from ecliptic and that is
far away from its other stars of this cluster.
This cluster also consists of 20 stars having 6 only magnitude far more less than that of Vrishchika.
Except one, all stars of this cluster are of fewer brilliant and away from ecliptic not clearly visible
through necked eyes.
It is to be noted, magnitudes expressed in high numerals are dull and shown with less numbered
magnitudes are practically highly brilliant.
The only so called bright star of Ophiuchus is located at the head of this Sarpadhara and that is
about 61 away from the southern edge of ecliptic, hence is about 70 away from the center of
ecliptic (18 width).
Extract is: the clusters stars are scattered, not located at ecliptic, do not have sufficient magnitude
and are not brightly seen in the celestial sphere.
Therefore, ancient astronomers did not include this cluster in the list of 12 rashis.
Hence the question of being a 13 th rashi is a mere act of misleading common men, may take place
in the news channels highlight only, therefore, null and void.
First of all, we have to divide the natal nakshatra in to 60 equal parts. Each division supplies a very
special effect that may come forth any time as follows.
1 nakasatra = 13 20 /60 = 00 13 20 is the extension of each segment starting from the initial
point of natal nakshatra. Effect of 60 segments is following:
Moon in natal nakshatra & its effect
1-00 13 20 Shifting preferences, changing work fields;
2-00 26 40 hard work, lesser gains;
3-00 40 00 disturbance from woman;
4-00 53 20 loss because of risky acts, adventures;
5-01 06 40 will get associates;
6-01 20 00 victory, success;
7-01 33 20 respect & honour;
8- 01 46 40 rivals defeated;
9-02 00 00 take help from a good consultant;
10-02 13 20 qualitative growth;
11-00 26 40 disheartened, have patience;
12-02 40 00 reputation lost, bad name;
13-02 53 20 regular hurdles;
14- 03 06 40 undesired pressure;
15-03 20 00 entire loss, defeat. Contd.
46-10 13 20 destiny favours after marriage, gains from long term partnership;
47-10 26 40 gain from sports, sport-mans spirit for resolving problems coming forth ;
48-10 40 00 gambling with hurdles;
49-10 53 20 exalted position;
50-11 06 40 miseries;
51-11 20 00 confusion at times;
52-11 33 20 highly respectable;
53- 11 46 40 assisted by people;
54-12 00 00 dedication required;
55-12 13 20 handsome gain;
56-10 26 40 victory;
57-12 40 00 success in nut shell;
58-12 53 20 firm determination;
59- 13 06 40 good health, equal loss & profit ;
60-13 20 00 comforts.
concluded.
Reckoning from the natal moons nakshatra to the same of Saturn in transit, divide the sum by 9.
The remainder manifests:
The same effect should be considered in the natal chart by the remainder.
Why Lord Rama born in Pushya or Punarvasu, was named on the letter of Chitra?
Similarly, Lord Krishna named on Ka letter pertaining to Mrigshira where the natal nakshatras
letters, i.e., O Va Vi Vu are totally ignored.
This all is stated, in a clear manner, in the Vedanga Jyotisham of Lagadha.
hence, one can name one's child according to the sweet will of his family members.
1-Loss;
2 to 5- success;
6 to 11- wandering, confusion;
12 to 16- wealth;
17 to-20- dishonor, ignored by people;
21 to 23- exalted position;
24 to 25- comforts, contended;
26 &27- disease, troubles.
In the Surya Siddanta, Triprashna Adhikar, the same rule (theorem ascribed to Pythagoras) has been
elaborately described with reference to Palabha.
We know that Palabha replaces the geographical latitude in ancient astrology.
Palabha is a measurement of shadow of a stick, fixed at surface to deduce lagna for the locality in
question.
Palabha remains 0 on the day of Mesha or Tula Samkranti, 12:00 hrs, at equator and gradually
increases as we proceed north or south of equator.
Here is the original quote from S.S.:
Shanku Chhayakritiyuter Moolam Karnosya Vargatah.
Projhya Shankva kriter Moolam Chhaya Shanku Viparyayat.
That is: the Shanku and Chhaya form right angle of 90, the area of the square at the hypotenuse
(Karna) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on two sides. similarly one can also arrive at
the actual measurement of the above three by reverse application with their square roots.
(Present year of age + natal nakshatra + natal moon sign = the sum x 2)
Divisor is 7.
Divide the tenure of Moola by 30. Birth in the 1/30 th part results in:
1. Cruel nature;
2. Illusive;
3. Cool;
4. Sons;
5. Multi facets of skill;
6. Protecting inheritance;
7. Loving nature;
8. High anger;
9. Violent;
10. Creative;
11. Rajayoga;
12. Diplomat;
13. Wealthy;
14. Sons;
15. Liberal;
16. Luminary;
17. Fond of music;
18. High anger;
19. Creative;
20. Highly responsible;
21. High anger;
22. Administrator;
23. Highly responsible;
24. Destroyer;
25. Windy nature;
26. Thinker;
27. Gallant;
28. Headman;
29. Learned;
30. Team leader.
The above effect is applicable to Shlesha in a reverse manner, i.e., start counting from
30,29,28,27,26-----5.4,3,2,1.
Mahadasha lord abides by its Special individualised position that ascribed for Dasha effect only:
This exercise is individually meant to fix up the key word valid for entire Dasha period.
Example- lagna 1+ rashi occupied by Saturn 7 (present dasha lord) =8 x 2= 16x 19 (dasha years
for Saturn) = 304/ 27= remainder-7 indicates health disorder, undesired load or pressure, troubles,
all sort of hindrance and this is true for the native.
1.success, honour;
2. worldly comforts;
3.gains from overseas, recognition;
4. favour from headman property;
5.troubles from government;
6.Authority, happiness;
7. health disorder, undesired load or pressure, troubles, all sort of hindrance;
8.overcoming rivals, property;
9. humble to all, allegations;
10. weak digestion, disease in abdomen, calumny; contd.
11. Great success, mental satisfaction;
12. Reputation, wealth, name &fame sometimes because of being suspect in illegal act.
13. Disease, dishonor;
14. Hindered feeding, evil acts;
15. Humiliation;
16. Enhanced learning, successful ventures;
17. Comforts of house, gains, exalted position at work;
18. High status, honour &authority;
19. Litigation;
20. Overconfident; shirking from deep knowledge;
The term Drishti or aspect is not to be taken literally. In Vedic astrology, it signifies a specific
celestial positioning of planets which ensures a mutual inter-relationship or sharing/transmission of
effects.
Thus, Drishti is a positional phenomenon of mutual affection, transmission of mutual influence, and
mutual support amongst planets. This definitely does not mean a physical act of seeing but only an
extension of mutual influence, according to the seers.
House aspect is practically applicable to all lagnas and to all Varga (divisional) charts. This can be
derived from the statements of the sages.
Parashara, (vide BPHS, Varga Vivechana) states that a planet having aspect on the first house of any
two or three out of the lagna, Drekkana, Dwadashamsha or any other prominent divisional (Amsha
of the rashi) chart, i.e., Saptamsha, Trimshamsha or Shashtyamsha, confers on the native the best of
yoga results.
In Chapter 36, shlokas 33-35 of the BPHS, the sage states that the same planet placed in or
aspecting the houses 1 or 7 in the lagna, navamsha and Drekkana charts confers Rajayoga. The
quality of effect is to be judged from the quantity of Drishti. Contd.
For use of the concept of Drishti in the Vargas, there are numerous references in the classics.
Parashara, for example, states that in the Karkamsha chart, the Sun and Rahu placed together and
aspected by Mars, bereft of any other aspect, ruin the natives houses, whereas these two together
aspected by Mercury alone cause no harm.
Similarly, in the Saaravali, Drishti Phaladhyaaya, Kalyan Verma describes result of mutual Drishti
of Aun, Mercury and Venus.
This all suggests us that the term Drishti is not merely confined to the basic chart only. They apply
Drishti to divisional charts too and therefore, state effect of Drishti in various charts including
Vergas.
The Saravali reveals that all rules and regulations relevant to the lagna chart are applicable to the
Dwadashamsha chart. This means that this varga is equivalent to the lagna chart, and the two should
be treated alike in respect of placement, aspect and relationship of planets.
Varaha Mihira states that Saturn and Venus exchanging houses in the navamsha or mutually
aspecting in the navamsha (e.g., Saturn in Vrisha and Venus in Kumbha in the navamsha, or Venus-
Saturn conjunct in any of the signs Vrisha, Tula, Makara, Kumbha) make the native highly sensual.
Some modern-day astrologers have started questioning the relevance of application of the concepts
of Drishti in the Vargas or divisional charts. The sages and Acharyas are very clear in advocating
that the rules of Drishti are as relevant to the divisional charts as they are to the lagna chart.
Nakshatra hurt disburses its inauspicious effect within days equal to the number of stars of the
Nakshatra.
In case of marriage, days, fixed thus, are to be considered as years, states Varah Mihira.
For the number of stars, please refer to the page no. 118 of Mishras Indian Ephemeris, 2013.

Dashami with Shlesha.
This sort of yoga manifests obstacles in survival, at Muhurtha, travel for a specific cause and any
type of construction.
Like Grahas, nakshatras also become combust when their rising and setting times coincide with the
same of the Sun.
Therefore, following the three nakshatras are weak because of obtaining blemish of combustion:
The following nakshatras never become combust as they remain far northward from the ecliptic.
Therefore, they rise long before the sunrise and set long after the sunset:
Swati, Abhijit, Shravana, Dhanishtha, U.Bhadrapada
Generally, Sun curtails the good of the house, it occupies. But Sun in the above-mentioned
nakshatras hesitates to cut short good effects of that house.
On the day of election, getting admitted to hospital, filing a petition:
Check the nakshatras in transit of the Sun, the Moon and natal / according to the first letter of

Above three falling anywhere in the trio of the following indicates defeat, prolonged stay or future

Someone questioned me why suitable dates for marriage in Dec. 12 & 13 in 2013 absent in your
Ephemeris, while those are recommended in other panchangas?
The nakshatra falling in Vedha (volcanic) by any graha on the date in question is strictly
prohibited. Following paired nakshatras mutually fall in Vedha-
Ashwini & P. Pha, Bharani & Anuradha, Krittika & Vishakha, Rohini & Abhijit, Mrig & U. Asha,
Ardra & P. asha., Punar. & Moola, Pushya & Jyeshtha, Shlesha & dhanistha, Magha & Shravana,
Revati &U. Pha., hasta & U.Bha., Chitra & P. Bha., Swati & Shatbhisha,
On Dec. 12, revati and Mars in U. Pha. Cause Vedha.
It is a matter of great pleasure that people nowadays are much aware about astrological calculations
shown in Panchanga/ Ephemeris.
Today I encountered with an intelligent query regarding Karana, one of the components of
Panchanga.
The man wanted to get confirmation whether a karana ends exactly when the moon is advanced by
6 or calculated by bifurcated Tithimaana.
I submit:
A karana precisely ends when moon gains distance of 6 from sun.
The picture does not change much either we divide Tithi in to two equal parts or wait for moon to
obtain 6 distance from sun.
Generally timing in ephemeris is rounded off in a complete digit of minute, if that in seconds
remains above 30 seconds or more. The classics advise in this respect Ardham Roopavat 1 and
the difference appearing thus, will be limited to one minute around.
Today on Sept. 13,2013, Bava karana as well as the tithi 8 ends at 9:34:41 hrs with Sun-
262924, moon- 02 2924 maintaining 6 distance.
The next karan, i.e., Balava will end when moon moves further 6 away from sun, i.e., 20,27,21
(sept.13, 2013,20:27:21hrs.) having sun at 265553 and moon at 085553 in the next rashi
(precisely 12 away). Karan ,thus as a matter of rule, keeps maintaining the same distance.
However, taking tithimaan in to account, end of 8 tithi- 09:35 hrs. end of tithi 9-07:17 hrs. next
day, hence the extension of tithi is 21hours 42 minutes, adding a half of it to the previous end of
Karan gives us time- 20:26 hrs. and the same obtained through longitudes appears to be 20:27
revealing minor difference of 1 minute 21 seconds. This minor difference will be limited to 1-1.5
minute only practically making no considerable difference.
The reason is that obtaining the most precise longitude of moon, because of its swiftly varying
motion, is an uphill task. therefore,a minor difference in minutes in moon's longitude is condoned
by Aacharyas.
All seven or almost planets in the following group of houses/ rashis (as mentioned below) are
treated as Rajayoga of a little lower grade.
Persons having several planets (more than 4/7) in the said group of rashis/houses earn good
recognition, skill, name and goodwill in his chosen field of work.
This yoga does not only form with Moon & Jupiter.
There are two kinds of this yoga, Kesari & Gajakesari yoga.
Sun in the X or moon in IX from Jupiter forms the Kesari yoga.
The latter one is not only formed with Jupiter falling in any Kendra from the Moon, but also with
Mercury aspected by Moon or Jupiter aspected by/ associated with Mercury.
The Moon or Jupiter in neecha or combustion cancels the Kesari as well as the Gajakesari yogas.
this all has been culled from the statements of Parashara. </html

planets having mutual relation (Sambandha) are weak and give mediocre results when:
Aryabhat (not Aryabhatt), an astronomer cum mathematician was born in 476 Ad in Vidarbha area (
now in Maharashtra, India).
And wrote his magnum opus, Aryabhateeyam comprising of 121 shlokas only, in 499 AD ( 23 year
old).
In ancient India astrology, astronomy and mathematics were interconnected and taught in a compact
manner.
Of Aryabhat:
Vishakha 1,2,3 padas- better mental tuning with the younger brother /sister of the partner.
Vishakha 4 pada- inimical relations with the above-mentioned.
1,2,3 padas of Moola- fine tuning is absent with father-in-law. Most of the time is troublesome.
4 pada of Moola- no such effect would be there.
2,3,4 padas of Shlesha the same as of Moola 1,2,3 padas for mother-in-law.
1 pada of Shlesha - no such effect is seen.
Entire Jyeshtha no fine tuning with elder brother-in law. The effect is greater in the IV quarter.

Debate for no cause between husband and wife resulting in an unpleasant situation would be a
regular feature, when your chart meets any of the following:
Remedy:
1. Jo Tumko Ho pasand Vahi Baat kahenge.
2. Aji ham bhi hain Tum bhi ho, Dono hain Aamane Saamne.
Choice is yours.
Level of success:
Following is a method to estimate worldly comforts based on nakshatras.
Including Abhijit, 28 nakshatras (starting from Krittika) should be divided into 8 equal sectors
where each sector consists of 3.5 nakshatras in their natural order. That is as follows:
1. Krittika, rohini, Mrig. I half of ardra; North -east
2. II half of ardra, pun., pushya, shlesha; East
3. Magha, P.Ph. U.Ph., I half of Hasta; South -east
4. II half f Hasta, chitra, swati, Vishakha; South
5. Anu. Jyeshtha, Moola, I half of P.Asha. South -west
6. II half of P.Asha., U. asha, Abhijit, Shravana; West
7. Dhanistha, Shatbhisha, P.Bhadra, I half of U. Bhadra; North- west
8. II half of U. Bhadra, revati, Ashwini, Bharani. North
Assessing effect
The native will be blessed with comforts, i.e., longevity, fame, recognition, advancement among the
siblings, when:
Three or more planet are in sector 1,2,3 &5;
Or many planets in Anuradha to Dhanishtha;
Three or more planets in other sectors manifest fewer comforts, least recognition, and short span
of life
higher number of planets in a particular sector bring success in the direction (disha) as indicated
above.
Functional benefic planets in the same Nadi Nakshatras (as that of your natal moon) disburse as:
One benefic- average success, ill-health;
Two benefic planets- better than siblings, longevity and good health protection;
Three or more great contribution to the field of work, sufficient span of life, active till end.
A mixed effect ensues with planets of mixed nature.
