Shri VALAMPURI JOHN SANDHANAM "

I have the privilege of knowing Shri K.Baskaran of Madurai, for a few years. 1 have watched him making good predictions through his wonderful system of Interlinks theory in Modern Astrology which has its roots in the well known Krishnamoorthy Pathathi method of Sublord theory

He has propagated hundreds of interesting points to substantiate his conviction that only the 12 cusps with their interlinks are responsible to carry out the events in one's life rather than the planetary significations as many of the traditional astrologers believe.

I am sure that this work will be well received in the world of astrologers of the new Millennium as a useful tool for successful predictions.

| wish Shri K.Baskaran all the very best in his keen research works in this field.

FOREWORD

Astrology has deep roots in the history of mankind and we hear many success stories of the ability of the astrologers to predict the future events with great precision. However, for every successful prediction that we hear, there are many dozens of inaccurate predictions. Then we hear that in addition to the knowledge of the rules of astrology (I do not know how many hundreds are there), one should have divine grace to give predictions. If it is based on divine grace, then the doubt arises whether it is a scientific method.

While, I was interested in astrology only as a bystander, a few years ago I had an opportunity to meet Sri K. Baskaran of Madurai and get exposed to the enchanting world of astrological predictions. In fact, with his guidance, I was able to make accurate predictions for the simple questions like "When can I meet a person?" and to the more advanced questions like "What is the nature of disease?"

VIII etc. His method is unique and the rules are much simpler. He blended the concepts of Kalapurusha Thathva and the Placidus system of house divisions elegantly into his basic theory of Cuspal Inter Links. When one applies cuspal interlinks directly, one is bound to meet situations where the same planet is connected to more than a single cusp. This gives rise to "complex effects". Death of child on the day of inauguration of a new house, birth of child and death of mother, etc., are examples well known to all of us. The cuspal links, which cause such effects, are clearly brought out by studying compound links and I think this prompted him to bring out the present book.

Mr Baskaran is a person who is willing to share his knowledge unlike many others. With his love for the subject of astrology, his years of experience in studying and carrying out research, he has written this excellent book " Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" I had an opportunity to go through this book and I see that he has presented such a complicated subject in a very lucid manner by taking a sample horoscope. While the possible number of combinations is extremely large, the style of presentation helps one to evaluate new cases with confidence and develop explanations for new combinations and situations.

IX / am very confident that this book, along with its previous two companion books, is going to be a handy reference book for all serious students of astrology who are interested in giving accurate predictions. I am confident that this book will certainly get the same great reception from fellow astrologers as his previous books did.

Mr. S.Gnanasambandan who is also a personal friend of mine, deserves all the praise for doing a great job of translating the text into English.

Om Mahaganapathaye Namaha TO THE READERS

Shri A.R.BALAN

Madurai -625 011. Friends, We have just entered into the new millennium with new questions and challenges placed before astrology. This science of futurology, has to prove its validity and credibility as with any other science. The science of calculation in astrology was made to perfection by Prof Shri K.S.K. But still something was required to be appended as astrologers have been facing certain difficulties in predictions with the usual significators. Some of them even went to the extent of substituting with the tradition based ideas for predictions. But, Shri K.Baskaran, with his faithful study, has proceeded for solutions to complicatedand complex questions of modern day life with the use of Cuspal interlinks based on the prime concepts of Prof of Shri K.S. Krishnamoorthyto evolve a new and novel system of astrology as "Krishnamoorthy - Baskaran" (KB system).

XI I feel proud about my disciple Shri K.Baskaran all the time, and this present work is really going to glitter as a jewel in the crown. He has indeed opened a floodgate for all the modern thinking astrologers to delve in gleefully to quench their thirst in this great science. It is my desire now to request all the dear readers to take up and carry on with this research work for the benefit of humanity in general. It is with great appreciation that I must herewith record about the support, suggestions and able guidance of Mr S.P.Khullar in the format of this book.

I should also appreciate the efforts of Shri S.Gnanasambandan, Senior Announcer, AIR, Madurai and Shri J.Rama Subramaniam for their commitment in bringing out this translation work. They have properly understood the inner meanings of what Shri K.Baskaran intended to say and elaborated the same according to the point of view of readers. I pray God Almighty to let the spirit of this team to continue in all their future efforts. Good luck.

1.06.2002 Madurai-11 Shri A.R.Balan,

XII NOTE OF TRANSLATORS

Dear friends, Astrology is amidst the recent controversies for its possible inclusion as a branch of study in universities. It has been condemned by its critics as an act of saffronizing the education system with Hindu fundamentalism. If we know what had happened to other empricial sciences, we ourselves would not demand for such a dogmatic inclusion of Astrology as a subject of study, as it could only defeat the very purpose and the significance of astrology.

But our concern here is the science- worthiness of astrology as rightly questioned by its critics. Though it is painful to admit, it is a fact that the present day astrology could never withstand before the specifications for deeming it as a science. Even if Astrology could succeed in finding a place as a faculty of study in universities due to the political patronage that it may possibly gain, we don't believe that the traditional astrologers would be generous enough to award due credit to Shri R.Gopalakrishna Rao(Meena) & to the Jothida Marthand Shri K.S.Krishnamoorthy. What is more painful to us is the fact even the so called followers of Shri K.S.K have not rendered due justice to his

XIII teachings. "The objectives are often defeated when they are institutionalized", is the prime propogation of Shri J.Krishnamoorthy, the popular philosopher of our times. Unfortunately this was what had happened also to the teachings of Shri K.S.K,. The non-availability of calculators and computers and lack of needed proofs to withdraw courageously and scientifically from the remains of a set of traditional concepts like aspects, retrogression etc., have limited Prof K.S.K., to leave certain shortcomings in his methodology.

Only in this context, Shri K.Bhaskaran, the author of this book, is to be appreciated for his contrubitions for the enlightenment of the teachings of his guru, Shri K.S.K by innovating the theory of "Cuspal Interlinks", At this moment, we feel really very proud for being the associates of this unique astrological work, "Applications of Cuspal Interlinks". We are aware that this book would stand as a milestone in the history of astrological researches. There were a few such attempts, in the footsteps of Late 'Shri K.S.K,. The basic differernce between such earlier attempts and this book lies in the scientific, the complete and the rational approach in applying the principles of astrology with the use of "Kaalamsas or Sublords".

XIV After the release of the previous book, "Principles of Cuspal Interlinks", there were a few murmurs by a set of KP followers who preferred to show themselves as the saviours of the sanctum sanctity of KP system rather than upholding it as a system of science. We believe that the god of times would make them to accept and realize the contributions of Shri K.Bhaskaran, in the times to come. We are confident that the readers would find this book as a completely different and thoroughly useful one on astrology. Good Luck Madurai: 01.06.2002

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" OM MAHAGANAPATHAYE NAMAHA INTRODUCTION

In geometry, only one straight line is possible to connect any two points. Thus science finds out the simplest way of doing things. What makes a science to deem it as a science? Whereever be and whenever be, an experiment carried by whomsoever be, the result ought to be one and the same everywhere. Philosophy with different logics, tries to detail the "Cause and Effects". Is astrology a Science or a Philosophy? Though it contains certain elements of mathematics, astrology uses different logics for predictions: In astrology, on a few occassions, 4+4 may not become 8. Since there are multiple and complex parameters, astrology is made to depend more on intutions rather than on a scientific perception. Hence, astrology is forced to be a subject with certain limitations.

While we, the astrologers wish to call it as an occult or empirical science, we forget to realize the shortcomings in calling it so, because of the usage of different ayanamsas, planetary positions, methods of calculations, inferences of Yogas and Doshas, references to exceptions, preferences of aspects etc., Unless we agree to an uniform method of casting an horoscope

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" by adhering to a similar set of principles, astrology could never be recognized as a science.

It is worthwhile to mention here an occassion in which the Government of India, through the Ministry of Human resources & Development, had attempted to singularise almanacs and to bring out a commonly accepted and a scientifically credible one. After lengthy discussions for more than a reasonable period, astrologers of different schools failed to successfully meet with the demand of the Government. It shows the attitude of Indian astrologers towards common interests. So, it is mandatory to seclude the scientific elements of astrology from the myths of faiths and spiritualism. Though it may take decades to compile and uphold the meaningful studies in astrology, we must, at least ensure that we are in that direction. In the process to improve the scientific contents in the philosophy of astrology, first of all, we must adhere ourselves to uniformity in

a) Casting a horoscope b) Identifying a set of rational principles c) Applying the said set of principles.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" CASTING

In casting a horoscope, western astrology begins and ends with the 12 signs, based on the transit of Sun. It takes the births between the dates 22 nd March and 21 st April of every year as included in one and the same sign, ARIES. Whereas the Hindu traditional astrology confines to its own classification of 12 Signs or Rasis to distinguish every horoscope with the other. The Drik-kanitha followers, to multiply the scope of distinctions, included the calculations of precise beginings of the Bhavas, the Cusps. For example in "Deva Keralam", a traditional Nadi astrology work, we can find the tools to divide a Lagna, i.e., the Ascendant with a span of approximately two hours, into 150 parts as "Soorya Nadi & Chandra Nadi" etc. The difficulty in following "Deva Keralam" is the lack of specified applications of these Nadi divisions to charts. The "Kaalamsa" method of Late Shri R.Gopalakrishna Rao (Meena) and the Krishnamoorthy Pathathi method of Sublords, respectively extended the scope of divisions by including the principle of the "Bhukthi / Antara periods, i.e., the proportionate divisions of the 9 planets according to UDU MAHADASA, to identify the planetary positions and to precisely fix the cuspal beginings.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" There are 12 Houses/Signs in Zodiac. At the time of each birth, we actually mark that point of Zodiac that is rising 180 degrees in the east, as Ascendant to that particular birth. Even for the same time of birth on a particular day, it gets varied according to the latitudes and longitudes of the places of birth and even for the same place it varies with every 10 seconds (Space & Time to specify the uniqueness).

As an ascendant SIGN, the Lagna, a new Sign/Rasi would appear approximately in every 2 hours; A new star would appear as the star of Lagna in about every 50 minutes; A new Bhukthi (Kaalamsa or Sublord) would appear in every 6 Minutes; A new antara (Subsub) would appear in every 50 seconds. "How precise that we are going to measure an Ascendant", is the factor that would ultimately decide the accuracy of a horoscope.

If we confine ourselves only to the Sign/ Rasi of the Lagna/Asc, then from the following example, we can see for ourselves as how it becomes unscientific.

Rabindranath Tagore is a great Indian poet and a nobel prize winner of the 20th century.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" Date of B rth: 07.05 1861 Time of bi th 02 51 A.M Place of Birth: Calcutta (22 35 N; 88 23 E)

ASC SUN MOON MER MAR VEN KET

JUP TAGORE'S HOROSCOPE (RASI) SAT

RAH

If we presume that he Lagna is the only factor to decide the "unique poetic excellence" of Poet Rabindranath, then all those who had their bi th betwe n 02 17 a.m to 03 48 a.m on the same day, same place or correspondingly with the other places must have had the same ability of excellence Hence, the method of considering the sign of "Lagna" alone as the factor to decide, could not be a rational and scientific one.

Here comes the signif cance of stellar astrology. Identifying the planetary movement in relation to the immovable stars in the background is what we call as stellar astrology. Thus Zodiac has been reclassified for study with the use of

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 6

27 stars. The use of stars was later extended to identify the Lagna/Asc. Though the stellar classification is an advanced version while compared to Rasi/ Sign classification, it still required something to be complemented with. Only at this juncture, the use of "Kaalamsa/ Sublord" gains significance. For a comprehensive study, the subsub (Antara) details of the remaining 11 cuspal beginings would also be required.

The ephemeris used by the modern astronomers and the Placidius System of cuspal divisions, as per the Newcombe's ayanamsa remain as more scientific in casting horoscopes. To avoid controversies, I would like to reserve my comments regarding the shortcomings of various schools of astrology in arriving the much needed accuracy of casting horoscopes. I request the readers to kindly refer my earlier book on this subject," The Secrets of Birth Time Rectification and RPs".

PRINCIPLES

While studying the logics of astrology, the differences in interpretations are numerous and are self-contradictory. Sometimes, exceptions are more in number than the principles, since our

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 7 ancestors in their Granthas, as in the cases of Indian traditional Medicines, had given the derivations only in capsules leading to ambiguity. They have not unfolded the logics behind such derivations. With the dead fishes, one could never predict the size and shape of the net or the rod that was used in fishing.

Any principle to survive in times, must be simple and rational. Complexities would lead only to confusions. The Karaka significations of planets and the bhavas as detailed in the traditional granthas are simple and rational. The description of the Kalachakra (The Zodiac) by the Hindu traditional astrology is a noteworthy one. Hence, by identifying the reliable information from our traditional astrology, Jothida Mannan Late Shri K.S.Krishnamoorthy, Chennai, had advocated a set of principles. As I felt that, some of these principles are to be enriched as suited to our present times, I have carried on the same by explaining the objectives and the logics behind these sceintific principles, in my second book, "The Principles of Cuspal Interlinks", brought out by Sagar Publications, New Delhi.

I would like to list the meanings of a few words that would often be used hereinafter in this

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 8

book, so as to assist the readers in proceeding further. a) CUSP: By cusp, we mean the beginning point of a bhava/ house, {SIGN, STAR, SUB & SUBSUB positions of Zodiac} derived as per the Placidius system and according to the latitude of the place of birth and the accurate time of birth.

b) SUB (Kaalamsa) (Bhukthi): One of the 9 parts of a star, due to anyone of the 9 planets according to their due proportion of UDU MAHADASA. A star is of a fixed length, i.e., 800 Minutes of arc and is ruled by a planet. Each star is further divided into 9 parts. The ruler of the first part is the ruler of the star itself and the successive rulers are as per the sequence in Vimsottari dasa rulers. The length or the range of each part is calculated by dividing the period of every star, i.e., 13 Deg 20 Min or 800 Minutes in the same proportion of years allotted to the rulers in the total span of 120 years of Vimsottari Dasa. Each part is called as a Bhukthi or a Kaalamsa according to Shri.R.Gopalakrishna Rao (Meena) or "Sub" according to Prof. K.S.Krishnamoorthy. The lord of this "Sub" is known as "SUBLORD". For example, the range of the sub ruled by the planet Sun will be equal to 6*800/120=40 Minutes and that of Moon

"Applications of Cuspal Inte links" will be equal to 10*800/120= 1 D 6 M 40 S.

c)SUBSUB (Antara): One of the 9 parts of a Sub, due to anyone of the 9 planets as per their ratio of UDU MAHADASA. {as above for the "SUB"}

d) CUSPAL INTERLINKS:

Type A: The link of a Kaalamsa (SUB) of a cusp to the remaining 11 cusps, through its STAR/ SUB/ SUBSUB lords.

Type B: The link of the lords of Kaalamsas (Sublords) of the other 11 cusps, which are either in the Star or in the Sub or in the Subsub of the Kaalamsa lord or sublord of the concerned cusp under study.

e) RULING PLANETS:

i)The SIGN, STAR, SUB, SUBSUB Lords of Asc & the planet Moon at the time of study:

ii) The planets that rule the moment of event or the planets that rule the question under study, are called as "Ruling Planets". For example, if a person asks a question about his marriage, then the sublord of the relevant cusp

"Applications of Cuspal Inte links" 10

for marriage, i.e., the 7th cusp, is deemed as the house that rules his query. Hence the sublord of the 7th cusp becomes a ruling planet.

APPLICATIONS

This book, "APPLICATIONS of CUSPAL INTERLINKS" attempts to provide details of the applications of a set of scientific principles of astrology, i.e., Cuspal Interlinks, to a particular horoscope which was cast scientifically.

This book relies on the prime conception that every horoscope is unique in itself. Place {Latitudes and Longtitudes} and Time are the two different factors to identify the unique distinction of a horoscope. From the time of origin of Homo-sapiens, to this day {or till the DAY of JUDGEMENT, as believed in certain religions}, we can never identify a pair of similar horoscopes. Hence to analyze a particular chart, we have to accumulate our concern on the factors that would constitute the uniqueness of that chart.

PLANETS:

In Traditional Hindu astrology, they believed that only the planets become the factors of differentiation. The residential strength

"Applications of Cuspal Inte links" 11

of a planet (Shadbalas), its aspects, the aspects that it gains from the other planets, the Karakas, the Yogas and the Doshas resulted by the occupations of the planets in different signs or Bhavas, the movements of planets like retrogressions, Asthamanams etc are studied in detail with numerous rules and their inherent exceptions to provide us with varied results. But let us study how this belief fails before rational way of analysis.

It is a traditional belief that the planet Saturn, when it is in the 8th house would call for dangers. Saturn could be in the 8th house for 8.33 % of natal horoscopes of 6 billion persons, who are currently living in our globe. If we believe that only the planets are the deciding factors of constituting the "uniqueness" of a horoscope, then we can check the same through the example chart of Rabindranath Tagore.

ii) In Tagore's chart, Sat is in Leo; Jup in Cancer; and Rahu in Sagittarius. Ketu would always remain at 180 degrees opposite to the position of Rahu. Sat, Jup and Rahu takes 30, 12 &18 years respectively for a full cycle; The LCM of 30, 12 & 18 would be 180 years. That means, approximately, in every 180 years, we may derive similar rasi charts and the world has

"Applications of Cuspal Inte links" 12

to see similar Tagores and Geetanjalis. {On 11.9.2215 at 1830 hrs, a similar chart could be prepared} Will it be a rational way of understanding astrological principles? There could only be one Mahatma, one Buddha, one Prophet Mohammed, one Tagore, one Newton and only one Kavi Bharathi in the entire span of human history.

iii) Let us imagine that we have to shoot with a rifle, at a mark placed just a few meters away from us; even a little shake of our fore- arms would deviate the angle; And.even this minor variation in angle, though the distance is reasonable, would leave us in missing the target. But, our tradition-bound friends believe that the aspects of the planets like Jupiter and Saturn would fall for an entire span of 30 degrees of a sign (i.e., 8.3% of the space), and that too after crossing a distance of a few million kilometres.

iv) Shadbalas are the strengths gained by a planet through its Nature (Naisargika Bala), Position (Sthana Bala), Direction (Dig Bala), Motion (Chesta Bala), Aspects (Drik Bala), House (Bhava Bala), and Time (Kala Bala) alongwith their Istha (Benefic) and Kasta (Malefic) Balas. But please remember that these

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 13

rules, unscientifically, presume the span of 30 deg of a sign as a single unit.

v) What do we mean by Yogas and Doshas ? Yogas are the favourable positions of the planets and doshas are the unfavourable ones. Both these are mostly defined with the use of residential signs of planets. Once again a sign as a whole is taken as a single unit.

vi) Planets could never retrograde. Retrogression is only an apparent event, a relative measurement only to the motion of our earth. It has nothing to do with our predictions.

But study of the significations or karakas of planets, according to their cuspal linkage, could serve better for the purpose. It is true that in staging an incident, every planet has its own way and style of presentation. But they are NOT empowered to decide the nature and course or to say, the potential to ensure an incident. Hence the use of karakas of planets are to be confined only to the minute variations in colours and tastes of any event. The significations {Karakas} of CUSPS alongwith their interlinks alongwith the current DBA periods are the ones that decide the nature and the actual timing of an event.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 14

CUSPS:

Our ancient Granthas have provided with more than a few hundred karakas (Significations) for every house. I would advocate to divide these karakas into two, i.e.,

i) according to their degree of relation to the Asc, since the other 11 cuspal points are only the abstract extensions of the Asc. The prime 50% of the significations of each house is bound only with the ascendant, i.e., the native himself.

ii) At the same time, every Bhava or Cusp, with its relatively independant significations from Asc, would react on the remaining 11 Bhavas or Cusps.

Thus every house acts on the other 11 houses while it receives reactions from the other 11 houses at the same time.

1. Imagine that Moon is the II cuspal sublord. It transits in the star of Mars, the cuspal sublord of say, 4 & 6, and in the sub of Rahu, the cuspal sublord of say, 8 & 12. Now, the II house is said to be linked with houses 4, 6, 8 & 12.

This linkage is used for finding the

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 15

timings of the events as assured by the houses 4, 6, 8 & 12. (Action of the Il cusp as an agent for 4, 6, 8&12)

2. Some planets may transit in the star or the sub or the subsub of the planet Moon. For example, presume that the planets Jupiter, Saturn and Mercury are either in the star or the sub or the subsub of Moon. Supposing that 5, 7, 9 &11 are the cusps to which the planets JUP, SAT and MER are the sublords, then these cusps would act on the II house or to say in other words, the II house is supposed to receive reactions from the cusps of 5, 7, 9&11. POTENTIALS

Now we have two different tools in our hands to study a horoscope.

a) Significations of planets to "colour "an event.

b) Significations of cusps alongwith their baggage of interlinks to decide the nature and the timing of an event.

How do the cusps alongwith their interlinks function to decide the nature and course of an event? They act according to their potential; If

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 16

so, what do we mean by "Potential"?

A. ASCENDANT POTENTIAL :

Every ascendant sublord would transit in a star, sub & subsub and would act accordingly to its star/ sub/ subsub lords. While the star draws into an involvement, the sub stands either positively or negatively to such an involvement. Some times, we can also replace the star with the sub for involvements and the sub with the subsubs for deciding the nature of favour. Thus Asc is bound with certain cusps. If the star of the Asc sublord does commit with the 5th cusp, then naturally the person would be fond of music or sports. Thus to become a musician {Permanent Nature}, one's Asc has to maintain a cuspal linkage with the 5th cusp. This is called as the potential ensured by the Asc, THE FATE.

The same principle could be extended to arrive at the respective potentials of the remaining 11 houses, but only to their relatively independant matters. Houses 1, { 3 & 11, the Vrithisthanas} & { 5 and 9, the Kona Sthanas} to a cusp would favour the functioning of the concerned cusp. Houses 4, 7, 8 & 12 to a cusp would block the favourable functioning of the concerned cusp. Houses 2, 6 & 10 to a cusp

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 17

would stand neutral to the functioning of the concerned cusp. (Please refer the chapter, "The Inner Thread", in my earlier book, "Principles of Cuspal Interlinks")

B.DASA POTENTIAL :

A dasa would be owned by anyone of the 9 planets; this planet must be transiting in a Star, Sub, Subsub. The Starlord, Sublord and Subsublord of this planet, may be appearing as the lord of Star, Sub & Subsub to certain other cusps also. Now the Dasa is bound to certain cusps through its lords. These cusps would naturally permit certain beneficial events and would defeat certain others. Thus, the Dasa carries a favourable or unfavourable weightage to provide a particular set of results to the client. This is called as Dasa potential or THE MIND. The word Dasa means the direction. Thus Dasa drags a client to a particular direction through its potential.

For example, the capacity of the engine fixes the driving specifications of a vehicle regarding power, speed etc. This is the Asc potential. But the vehicle can be driven only if there is fuel of the right type. This is the dasa potential. However, the fuel can only drive the

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 18

vehicle with the power and the speed to its engine capacity i.e., dasa can only lead to results subject to the limits of the Asc potential.

C. TRANSIT :

Gochara, (Gadhi) or Transit, the current stellar positions of the concerned planets, i.e.,the Dasa lord, the Bhukthi lord, the Antara lord and the Sookshma lord stand as the third dimension of predictions.

For predicting an event, we need to study the following:

1. Whether the event is promised or not ? FATE (as per cuspal interlinks )

2. Whether the Dasa, Bhukthi, Antara & Sookshma of the relevant cusps are in operation? MIND

3. Whether the transit of lords of Dasa, Bhukthi, Antara, Sookshma & the luminiaries Sun & Moon favour the event?

The Asc potential is the potential in principle which specifies the quantum and the quality of one's life. Though the Dasa potential is

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 19

the means and the source to tap the Asc potential, it is the Transit that gives the final green signal for the execution of the above.

To explain it broadly, we may assume that we have a car which can be driven, say upto a maximum speed of 150 km/h. Suppose we have two drivers who have the respective capability and confidence to drive the car

a) Only upto 100 km/h or b) Upto 200 km/h

In the first case the car, though has the potential to be driven upto 150 km/h., yet is being driven only upto 100 km/h due to the potential of the driver.

In the second case though the driver has the potential to drive the car upto 200 km/h, yet the speed is limited only to 150 km/h due to the engine potential of the car.

Assuming that both the car and the driver have the potential to drive upto 150 KM/h but if the road is uneven or is facing obstructions from the traffic, the car cannot be driven to its fullest potential. This is what we call the role of the transit.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 20

The Asc potential is the foundation or platform on which the flight of fortunes or misfortunes is constructed by the Dasa potential.

For a comprehensive study, we need both; but remember that both these potentials are inseparably tied together with their cuspal interlinks. Asc potential is like the subject of a book; Dasa potential is like the style and the flow of the language used to portray the said subject. Style without a subject would stand as dross: Subjects lacking artisitic styles, would end as dry wines. Likewise, Asc and Dasa must and would always complement each other.

THE BASICS FOR STUDYING A HOROSCOPE

1. Check the accuracy of the given birth time with the use of Ruling Planets.

Readers would have had miserable experiences from varied predictions by different astrologers. Answers to a specific question and reasons for a specific event are often misjustified due to lack of rational applications and comprehensions. Every horoscope is unique in itself. To ensure the uniqueness, the correlations

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 21

of a natal chart with the ruling planets are required to be studied. This correlation could be found in two ways.

1. The ruling Moon position is to correspond with the birth Ascendant & the ruling Ascendant is to correspond with the birth Moon position.

2. The present Moon position is to correlate with those houses of study (as per the recent questions of the client)

For example, if the client puts a question regarding his profession, naturally, the Moon is expected" to transit either in the star or sub(Kaalamsa) or subsub of the 10th cusp of the natal chart.

Lack of anyone of these pre-conditions could lead us to failures in predicitions. Subsequently, the natal chart may require minor corrections and alterations according to the ruling planets. For a detailed study of making birth time rectifications, the Readers are suggested to refer my first book on astrology, "Secrets of RPs and the Birth Time".

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 22

2. Instead of misadventures due to overconfidence, it is better to gather past events to correct the birth time. Even in pathology, for successful diagnosis of diseases, the past informations of symptoms from the patient are called for. With this information, fine tune all the 12 cusps upto subsub level with the use of given facts. Remember that even for the same Asc subsub, though it may last only for a few seconds (for example Venus subsub), there is a possibility of erecting at least 4 to 5 different charts.

3. Decide the Ascendant potential :

Note down the Asc sublord.Now note down the starlord, sublord & subsublord of the Asc sublord. These three lords might be appearing as star, sub & subsub lords of different cusps also. List these cusps. If they are 1, 3, 5, 9 & 11 to the Asc then things would become favourable. If they are 4, 7, 8 & 12, then things would become unfavourable. 2, 6 & 10, being neutral, would require more efforts of the native or assistance from the society to render him favours.

4. Potential of the remaining 11 houses.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 23 Please note down the sublords of the remaining 11 houses. In the same method used for finding the Asc potential, the natal potentials of the remaining 11 houses could also be derived. These potentials could be used in two ways.

i) For example, the 5th sublord is Jupiter which is in the star and sub of Mercury, which is the sublord of houses 2, 4 & 10. Now the significations of Jupiter becomes 2, 4 & 10 or to say 10, 12 & 6 to the 5th house. It is an unfavourable potential to the 5th house.

ii) What is this 5th house going to render to the Asc? Through its potential of 2, 4 & 10, the 5th house, with its karaka of arts and culture would enable the native to gain money (2), to acquire properties (4) and to lead a successful profession (10). Hence the natal potential of the 5th house is unfavourable to itself but may favour the materialistic life of the Asc as it contains the potential of 2, 4 & 10 with it.

5. Note down the potential of the current dasa.

Note down the Dasalord. Find the cusp or cusps, wherein the Dasalord has appeared as lord of the cuspal star or the sub or the subsub.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 24

The dasalord has to act for the above cusps during this current dasa.

Now note down the starlord, sublord & subsublord of the dasalord. These three lords might be appearing as star, sub & subsub lords to different cusps. List these cusps. If they are 1,3,5,9&11 to the prime significations of the dasalord, then things would become favourable. Ifthey are 4, 7, 8 & 12, then things would end in vain. Houses 2, 6 & 10 would demand more efforts on the part of the native to earn favours.

Supposing that the dasa lord is not the lord of the star or the sub or the subsub of any cusp, then the said dasalord would act commonly to all the 12 houses. The same rule could also be extensively used for bhukthi, antara and sookshma lords.

6. In the following pages it has been suggested to study the star or the sub of a planet to determine and to ascertain the potential. In transit, slow moving planets like SAT, JUP, RAH and KET take more than a month to cross a "sub". Hence for the slow moving planets it is better to study the "sub" for involvements and the "subsub" for confirmation. For the remaining fast moving planets, it is better to stick to the system of

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 25

studying the "star" for involvements and the "sub" for confirmations.

7. If it is for a general study of a horoscope, begin to study from the Asc and the longevity. If it is for a specific study, look only into those houses that are related to the question. Asc and Dasa potentials would lead to the prospects.

8. Questions under study could generally be classified into two categories, for example.,

a) Will I get back the money?

b) When will I get back my money?

Readers could easily note the difference between the above two questions. The first one doubts the occurrence itself whereas the second question requests the timing of the event with the presumption that the event is certain to occur. This classification should be kept in mind while giving predictions.

9. i) Prospects to a cusp are to be studied through the sublord of the said cusp. Its starlord, sublord and subsublord would decide the prospects.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 26

EX: a) Will I getback the money?

Note down the sublord of the 12th cusp If it resides in the star or sub of 1, 5, 8 & 9, then the person could never dream about getting back his money. Ifit is in the star or sub of 2, 4, 6 & 10, he is going to get back the money. Likewise, only when things are assured, we can proceed to time the event.

ii) To time an event, note down those planets, that reside in the star, sub & subsub of the cuspal sublord under study.

Ex: b) When will I getback the money?

Find the planets which are in the star or sub or subsub of the sublord of the 2nd cusp. From the above list, we have to omit the planets that are linked to 5, 8 & 9, the unfavourable houses of the 2nd house. The money can be recovered only during the combined DBAS periods of the favourable planets.

10. Here comes a problem. For the matters of money transactions, who will carry more weightage? the Dasa lord? or the Bhukthi lord? or the Antara lord? or the Sookshma lord?

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 27 i) For matters of fixed nature, we have to look for the potential of the Dasa.

Ex: Life & Longevity, Family, Love and affection, Personality and Satisfaction through various walks of life are to be studied only through Dasa.

ii) For matters of fairly frequent in nature, we have to study the Bhukthi Potential.

Ex: House, Lands, Vehicles, Marriage, New ventures and Status are to be studied only through Bhukthi periods.

iii) For matters of common or repetitive in nature, we have to study the Antara potential.

Ex: Temporary diseases, disturbances, court cases, stress and pain, commission and brokerage, worship, pilgrimage, foreign trips, investments, borrowings and loans are to be studied through Antara periods.

iv) For the matters that begin and end within a span of a few days, Sookshma should be considered.

Note *: Readers need not be dogmatic and

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 28

rigid in following the above as they are only basic suggestions.

1. However, for any significant event to happen, the potential of Dasa, Bhukthi, Antara & Sookshma alongwith the transit must remain either favourable or neutral.

2. The Sookshma cannot supersede the Antara while the Antara cannot supersede the Bhukthi and the Bhukthi cannot supersede the Dasa. For example, if the Antara is totally unfavourable to long journey, the sookshma, though it is highly favourable, will not permit the planned long journey.

Or to say in other words, native would enjoy only those significations of the Bhukthilord in its bhukthi, which are not negated by the Dasalord. On the reverse, the Dasalord, to carry on its personal agenda would await for a favourable or a neutral Bhukthi.

11. Venus would be the 7th cuspal sublord to anyone in a set of nine horoscopes. Venus would transit in its own stars for at least 27 days in a whole year. People who have had their birth either in Mercury or in Ketu star, would face Venus dasa during their teenage periods. If so,

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 29 can we come to a conclusion that all of them would get married during the Sookshma period of Venus, in its own DBA and in this 27 days transit period ?. It could not be so, as it would again defeat the concept of uniqueness.

i) The sub in which the VII sublord Venus is actually in, at the time of birth, would decide the prospects for marriage and the married life. {Potential of the chart}

ii) All those planets which are in the star or sub of Venus, are expected to favour the marriage. All these planets have to appear as the lords of the Dasa, Bhukthi, Antara and Sookshma, so that the event of marriage of the native is unique in nature, with the combination of karakas of all those planets who have a link for marriage. {Dasa potential}

iii) The Transit would add further colour and variety to the occasion.

In application of Cuspal Interlinks, the derivations are possible only through the planets. After all, it is the DBAS periods of a planet or planets that would ultimately guide the day-to-day routines alongwith the major events of ones life.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 30

All the 9 planets are acting continously on all of us. A planet has two ways to act. It derives a commitment from the natal chart. Say, for instance, Jupiter is the 5th sublord in a chart. Jupiter resides in the star and sub of Mercury, the sublord of houses 2, 4 & 10. Now, the planet Jupiter would always carry 2, 4 & 10 with it. Hence, during Jupiter Dasa, in a period of 16 years, the native would be able to enjoy the combined effects of the houses 2, 4 & 10.

But what about the remaining cusps and their effects. Will they remain dormant for the entire span of 16 years? They would come to stage at a time when the Dasalord Jupiter transits in the stars of the respective cuspal sublords.

Let us assume that the planet Jupiter transits in the star of Saturn, the 7th sublord. Now what would happen? With its baggage of 2, 4 & 10 or to say 8,10 & 4 to the 7th house, the planet Jupiter would cause for unexpected troubles and dissatisfactions in married life to the life partner of the native. Hence with its 2, 4 & 10 the planet Jupiter, would give varied results during its DBA periods, according to its transit. For example,

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 31

Asc : Materialistic favours and mental dissatisfactions : (2, 4 & 10 to Asc) II: Materialistic benefits (1, 3 & 9 to II) III: Problems in writings and break in short journeys, Quarrels with younger brother and father-in-law (12, 2 & 8 to III) IV: Accumulation of properties through own money (11,1 & 7 to IV) V: Health problems to the first child, Saturation in artistic interests (10,12 & 6 to V) VI: Ability to obtain loans and easy success, Co-operation from servants (9, 11 & 5 to VI) VII: Accidents to wife, Dejections of the business partner (8,10 & 4 to VII) VIII: Gains to the partner, Savings of wife (7, 9 & 3 to VIII) IX: Illhealth of the father or second wife, Problems in foreign journerys (6, 8 & 2 to IX) X: Smooth sailing in professional life (5, 7 & 1 to X) XI : Dissatisfactions in life (4, 6 & 12 to XI) XII: Secret plans, Favours from investments

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 32

etc., (3, 5 & 11 to XII)

Thus a single planet, at the same time, acts on all the 12 houses. In reverse, all the 9 planets would act on the same house at the same time. Only when all the 12 houses and the 9 planets combinedly act for an event, be it a daily routine or a major event of our life, it matures into a reality.

CUSPS: For example, presume that we have decided to meet a person on a particular day at a particular time. What are all the subsequent questions that would arise?

1. Are we going to meet him? (I Bhava) 2. Is he going to come to meet us?(VII Bhava) 3. Where is the venue of our meeting? Our office? (IV Bhava) or his residence? (X Bhava) 4. What do we wish to communicate? (IX bhava) 5. What does he wish to negotiate? (III Bhava) 6. What do we gain out of this meeting? (II bhava) 7. What does he gain? (VIII Bhava) 8. Will the talks be fruitful? (V & XI)

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 33

9. Who would force the meeting to fail (VI or XII)

If the person is unable to come to meet us, then cusps 2 & 8 are said to be in operation. A communication from our friend to postpone the meeting would be received if 3 & 9 are in operation. During the course of meeting we may taste groundnuts and a cup of coffee (6) ; But he may prefer cashewnuts and a cup of tea (12); We may pick him up in our car (4); He may drop us in his motor-bike (10); We might have satisfied him (5) or he might have satisfied us (11); Thus all the 12 houses through the planets, stand to matter for each and every moment of our being. Using a single bhava or a single planet to predict an event would mean that we are perfunctory in our approach and that would lead us to end in vain.

PLANETS: For example, let us presume that two parties are meeting in a negotiation table. Sun, the karaka planet for legal validity of such a meeting, Moon, the karaka planet for the duration of such a meeting, Mars, the karaka planet for the areas of disputes, Mercury, the karaka planet for the phases and schedule of talks, Jupiter, the karaka planet for mutual trust

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 34

between the parties, Saturn, the karaka planet for unexpected failures and dejections in the process of negotiations, Rahu, the karaka planet for traces of doubts in the minds of the parties, and Ketu, the karaka planet forthe inner criminal motives and the intentions to cheat the other, must find appropriate docks with cusps so as to ensure success out of the meeting.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 37 {GENERAL STUDY}

Let us now try to learn the methodology of the general study of a horoscope with the following example. Due to the differences of various ayanamsas, in softwares and in systems of casting horoscopes, there may be some minor variations in the planetary positions and the cuspal divisions. Hence let us confine ourselves with the following example to learn only about the methodology. CHART CHAPTER I STUDY OF ASCENDANT (Please refer to the Example Chart)

In studying the Ascendant-dependant matters of every house, first of all, it is mandatory to assess the potential of the ascendant before analyzing the strength of any house. Note the starlord of the sublord of each cusp and study its position of favour to the asc and not to themselves. Only to the matters of their own entity, the position of favour is to be studied to themselves.

Personal capacity to think and act, gain or loss of energy, attraction, pleasures and character are the prime significations of the l house, the Asc.

ASC & I (PHYSICAL STRUCTURE)

We have to use common sense in deciding about the height and the colour or complexion of a person. The region and the social group to which a person actually belongs to would also matter a lot in deciding the height and the colour or complexion of a person. For example, the average height of a few tribal groups is around 4.5 feet, while the average height of an Australian stands at 6 feet.

Our ancestors have used different signs, stars and planets for identifying different colours. White coloured Europeans, Dark coloured Africans, Yellowish Mangolians, Brownish Indians are all living in this world. Even amongst the same coloured people, we can notice a few minor differences in colours. An African born with the starlord of the sublord of the Asc in Taurus, whatever may the complexion of his basic colour be, would appear as handsome. And also that the colour of a person is subject to changes due to the climatic conditions and the exercise of physical labour in his profession.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 43

Body structure of a person could be traced from the Sign, Star & Sub, wherein the starlord (Sun, in this example chart) of the Asc sublord (Mars, in this example) is in. But please remeber that it would stand as common to all those who are born with Mars as Asc sublord on that particular day on which, the starlord Sun would remain in the same sign, star and sub. To differentiate, we need to identify the cusps wherein the starlord of the Asc sub, is the sublord. The signs of these cusps would combinedly indicate the structure of a person.

In this example Sun, the starlord of the Asc sublord Mars, is the sublord only to the 6th cusp. Since Aries is the sign wherein the 6th cusp has fallen, the client would appear as per the significations of Aries {Tall, Masculine in appearance, with long, straight and black hair etc}. CHARACTER OF A PERSON :

Character of a person changes as per the current DB lords. We know that a person with very good character occassionally falls from his own standards. Take the case of the former US president Bill Clinton; all of a sudden, his name was involved in a sex scandal. The successful captain of the South African cricket team, Late

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 44 Hansie Cronje was accused of bribery charges. It is a fact that no one could ever be good to everybody else, no one could ever be good to all at all times and on all circumstances; Qualities of contrast natures like pervertions and morality, vengeance and magnanimity, selfish attitude and social service are tied together in the same mind and heart; they blow in and wear out as per the Dasa and Bhukthies. The consistency factor of one's character remains more with the DB lords. Please note that we have not included the Antara and the Sookshma periods because their periods are relatively smaller.

During the DB periods that are related to the Asc, the character significations of natal nature of the Asc leads the stage. But, in the periods of Dasas and Bhukthies, that are unrelated to the Asc, the character gets modified according to their respective lords. However, the basic character of an Ascendant could be studied as follows.

The starlord of the Asc sublord is Sun in this example:

Planetary signification ( Sun ):

i) Status, Leadership, Selfish, Power &

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 45

Authority, Fond of Hot and Spicy Foods, Short-temper, Bold decisions, Convincing others to his views etc (Vide P.N 46 of Principles of Cuspal Interlinks)

Here, we have taken only those Karakas of Sun that are meant only for the Ascendant. We have not included the 6, 7 & the 8th houses and their related karakas of Sun as they would become immaterial here. {P.N 21, "PCI"}

Sun is connected to Aries, a movable and fiery sign:

ZODIAC significations:

i) Initiative, Violent, Endeavour, Thoughtful, Active, Encouraging, Rumour- monger, Doubting others, Adamant, Careless, Concoctor of lies, Harsh words, Provocative, Hurting others and Insulting sentiments etc., (Vide P.N 45 of Principles of Cuspal Interlinks)

SUN is connected to the 6th cusp

Cuspal significations: iii) Industrious, Hard-labour and a Debtor etc.,

In case if the planet Sun is connected to more than a single cusp, then the significations

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 46

of all those cusps could be taken into account. In these cases of multiple ownerships, we have to depend more on the cusp to which the sublord of the Ascendant sublord would favour more.

Sun is in Aries and it is the I Bhava of Zodiac

iv) Helping tendancy, Popular, Bold in undertakings, Social status etc.,

The sublord of the Ascendant sublord is Rahu, which is the sublord of the 7th cusp, a neutral position to Sun, the starlord of the Asc sublord. Hence the planet Rahu would uphold the results provided by the Sun.

GRAHA KARAKA (PLANETARY SIGNIFICATIONS)

Saturn and Ketu are the two planets which are either in the star or sub of Mars, the Asc sublord.

SATURN would give Mental Depression, Doubting Natures, Stress and Pains, Telling Lies, Lack of Cleanliness, Violence, Inferiority Complex, Laziness, Lack of needed interest in sexual pleasures etc.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 47 KETU would give Criminal Thoughts, Magics, Cunningness, Faith in God, More aciditity in body, Subversive actions etc.

While the karakas of Mars remain permanent, karakas of Saturn & Ketu would temporarily come to the forefront by superseding the karakas of Mars, during their own Dasa, Bhukthi & Antara periods.

Notes :

1. If the sublord of the Asc sublord owns an unfavourable position to the starlord of the Asc sublord, it would distract the results indicated by the starlord.

2. Supposing that the sublord of the Asc sublord is sublord to more than a single cusp while the starlord of the ascendant sublord is owner only to a single cusp, a set of combined results is to be expected.

3. If both the lords of the star and the sub of the Asc sublord are owners to more than a single cusp, then a proper combination of all those significations of the above linked cusps, is to be studied.

4. If the starlord of the sublord of the Asc

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 48 does not appear as sublord to any cusp, then we must find its appearance in the series of starlords and subsublords of all the 12 cusps, before going in for studying with its residential sign, star & sub of the said starlord of Asc.

Let me list a few principles of linkage of the Asc to itself:

1,1: Resistance to diseases, long life, own ideas, activeness 1,2: Financial motives through self efforts and thoughts 1,3: Courageous, communicative, fond of travels 1,4: Inclination to education, Interested in accumulating wealth, Lesser interest in romance, Atheist 1,5: Interests in music and arts, sports, romance 1,6: Frequent illness, fond of success 1,7: Envious towards others, sociable 1,8: Dejections, attempts to commit suicides, criminal intentions 1,9: Illegal affairs, excellence in higher education

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 49

1,10: Status through profession 1,11: Satisfaction through self efforts 1,12: A man of secrecy

Here in the given example chart, the Asc sublord is permanently linked with the houses 6 & 7 to mean that the native is prone to frequent illnesses and may envy others. These would become explicit when the Asc sublord Mars transits in its own stars during its DBA periods.

To help the readers, I would like to suggest them the art of classifying the significations of the nine planets as suited to the cuspal requirements with the following example. It is always better to teach the art of fishing rather than to donate fishes. Hence, I have provided the Asc related significations of the ascendant, by giving an example each for the physical and the mental karakas for every planet. In the same way, I request the readers to learn the art of classification for the remaining 11 bhavas or cusps. For the details of significations of planets, readers are advised to refer some good traditional texts, until I could find time to write a separate book on "Cuspal Interlinks and Graha Karakas".

SUN: Bones of the body; Honesty

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 50

MOO: Blood in the body, Intelligence MAR: Fleshes in the body, Courage and hard labour MER: Nerves of the body, Memory and activeness JUP: Fats in the body, Generosity and devotion VEN: Glands of the body, Handsome appearance and pleasures SAT: Skin of the body, Doubting and inferiority complex of the mind RAH: Respiratory function, Addictions KET: Acids of the body, Criminal and subversive thoughts

ASC & II

Certain significations of the II cusp are meant only for Asc, such as fortunes and favours, one's abilities and smiles of lucks, capability to express, softness in expression, memory, imagination, capacity to digest food, allergy, vision and the right eye, voice and the tongue, nose, teeth, cheek, jaws etc.

General principles of linkage of the II house with the Asc are as follows:

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 51

1,1: Expenditures from personal savings 1,2: Earnings through own ideas. 1,3: Sale of gold and valuables for personal needs 1,4: Purchase of goods and articles for personal needs, out of own income 1,5: Gamblings with own money 1,6: Personal medical expenditure out of income 1,7: Expenditures from his money left at other's hands 1,8 Dejections on financial matters 1,9: Financial crisis out of extravagant expenditures 1,10: Expenditures for safeguarding the prestige 1,11: Savings to the optimum level to satisfy personal materialistic desires 1,12: Extravagant expenditure for personal needs

DIMENSION 1: POTENTIAL:

To study the Asc related matters of the II house, we have to use only the sublord of the II

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 52

cusp; In the given example, Mercury the II sublord, is in Venus star, the sublord of the 12th house and in the sub of Rahu, the 7th sublord. 12th house is a house of unfavour to the Asc. But the sublord of Mercury, Rahu negates the star and hence the unfavours shown by the star become null and void.

Planetary significations:

Venus, as the starlord of the sublord of the Il cusp, would mean love and affection in conversing, convincing, pride in speech etc. (Vide 6 of P.N 65- Principles of Cuspal Interlinks)

Zodiac significations:

We have to identify the cusps wherein the starlord of the II sublord is the sublord. The signs of these cusps would combinedly decide the skills of expressions of a person. The starlord Venus appears as the sublord of the 12th cusp, which has fallen in Libra, the airy, the movable and the inorganic sign.

Selfishness in speech, bogus presentation, clear and pleasing speech etc,. (12-P.N 66, "Principles of Cuspal Interlinks")

Cuspal significations:

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 53

Since it is the 12th cusp, the native would involve in research works, inventions, inclination to express secrets but with ambiguity.

DIMENSION 2: (DASA , BHUKTHI)

With the above potential, the sublord of the Il cusp Mercury, persuades its agents i.e., the planets that are in its star or sub, for execution of its potential. Here in this example, Jupiter is the only planet which is in the star and sub of Mercury, the II sublord. Hence at the time of execution of the Asc related significations of the II cusp, the planet Jupiter would use its own karakas for the style of functioning.

GRAHA KARAKA (PLANETARY SIGNIFICATIONS)

Jupiter, as the sublord of houses 5 & 11, and as a planet in the star and sub of Mercury, the II sublord, would lead the native to reveal the truths, to provide needed advice, to prefer only hygienic foods etc., and to have a clear eye-sight, to increase fat in eyes, to gain knowledge through listenings, to get mellowed in conversations etc,.

While the reactions of Mercury, as the II

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 54 sublord on Asc (DIMENSION 1) remains permanent, Jupiter would act (DIMENSION II) in the forefront during its own DBA periods.

DIMENSION III:

The remaining 7 planets would act temporarily for the Asc related significations of the II cusp, while they happen to transit in the star of Mercury, but depending upon their potential of favour / unfavour to the Asc.

Planetary significations of the Asc related significations of the II bhava could be read with the use of the following example:

SUN: Strength of bones, Prideful speech, MOO: High % of hemoglobin in blood, Thought provoking speech MAR: Strong muscles, Boldness in speech MER: Active nerves, Humorous speech JUP: Excessive fats in the body, Soft spoken VEN: Watery body, Attractive speech SAT: Rough skin, Exaggerated speech with lies RAH: Deep breaths, Ambiguous speech KET: High and speedy flow of acid with increased capacity to digest, Spreading

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 55

rumours and provoking confusions through speech

Thus the readers can classify the remaining physical and mental significations of planets for the asc related significations of the II bhava, for precise predictions.

ASC & III

Memory power, courage, inclination towards studies, stability, writings and style of writings, communications, rumours, journeys, leaving the native place, right ear, right hand, right leg, neuro- system, blood circulation, sleeping, sound and light, listening etc of the III house are meant only for lagna.

General principles of linkage of the III house with the Asc are as follows:

1,1: Courage and self-confidence through own ideas 1,2: Courage and self-confidence to earn income 1,3: Winning through own ideas, confidence and intelligence 1,4: Confidence, developing skills towards

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 56

education 1,5: Knowledge, wisdom and confidence by birth {Prodigy} 1,6: Success in litigations and competitions, through confident approach 1,7: Courage and confidence gained from society 1,8: Confident to go after criminal means 1,9: Confidence and courage in negotiations 1,10: Confidence shown in professional excellence 1,11: Happy and harmonious life gained through mental toughness 1,12: Confidence gained through maintaining secrecy

DIMENSION I : (POTENTIAL)

In this example, the III sublord is Mars, which transits in the star of Sun, the sublord of the 6th cusp and is in the sub of Rahu, the 7th sublord. 6th house is a neutral house to the Asc and the 7th house is a neutral house to the 6th house. Hence, the potential of the Asc related significations of the III house is potentially neutral to the Asc.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 57 Sun, starlord of the sublord of the III cusp, would denote mental toughness. (Planetary signification)

We have to identify the cusps to which the starlord of the III sublord, appears as the sublord. The signs of these cusps would combinedly decide the mental strength of a person.

Sun is the sublord of the 6th cusp, which falls in Aries, the fiery and the movable sign. It adds quick, fiery and courageous reflexes of mind. (Zodiac signification)

Sun is connected to the 6th house from Asc :- Courage to carry self-endeavours. (Cuspal signification)

DIMENSION II: (DASA BHUKTHI PERIODS)

The planet Mars would drive the residents of its star or sub to execute its natal potential. Saturn and Ketu are the two planets in the star or sub of Mars, the III sublord.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 58 GRAHA KARAKA (PLANETARY SIGNIFICATIONS)

Saturn would give rise to rumours, defects in nerves and blood circulation, defects in the parts of sound and light, mental agony, lack of needed courage and problems due to signing of surety documents.

Ketu would lead to involve in forged documents, overflow in the glands, infection in ears, increase of acidity in blood, weakness in nervous system etc.

While the karakas of Mars, as the sublord of the III house, a naturally favourable house to the Asc, remain permanent, karakas of Saturn & Ketu would temporarily come to the forefront by superseding the karakas of Mars, during their respective DBA periods.

DIMENSION III: TRANSIT

The remaining planets would act tempo- rarily for the Asc related significations of the III cusp, while they happen to transit in the star of Mars, but depending upon their nature of favour to the Asc with respect to their natal cuspal interlinks.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 59 Planetary principles:

SUN: Strength of bones; Mental toughness MOO: Blood pressure, Wavering mind MAR: Well-structured body, Boldness MER: Active physical reflexes, Grasping capacity JUP: Dullness in physical actions, Steady and calm mind VEN: Brisk physical functioning, Engaged and industrious mind SAT: Lethargic physical actions, Lazy mind RAH: Strains in physical actions, Lack of balance in mind KET: Active digestion, Considerate mind

Thus the readers can learn the art of classifying the remaining karakas of the planets, as suited to the requirements of the Asc related significations of the III cusp. ASC & IV

Primary education, private affairs, chest and lungs, movements of the body, prolonged diseases, irregular food habits, productivity of inner organs, are some of the karakas of the 4th house, a naturally unfavourable house, that are related to the Asc.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 60

What the IV house would render on the Asc could be identified from the following list of priniciples of linkage:

1,1: Status and respect through Lands, Vehicles and Properties 1,2: Income and status through LVP 1,3: Contacts and status through LVP 1,4: Landlord 1,5: Expressing artistic tastes involving LVP 1,6: Respectable hardwork in the fields of LVP 1,7: Sociable and popular in the fields of LVP 1,8: Death due to vehicle accidents 1,9: Landlord like a king or a Zamindar 1,10: Authority in the fields of LVP 1,11: Satisfaction of desires by owning LVP 1,12: Secret plans with regard to acquiring LVP

DIMENSION 1: POTENTIAL:

In the above, we have chosen the factor of "STATUS" by selecting it from the pool of numerous significations of the Asc to match it with the karaka of "OWNERSHIP" from the pool of significations of the IV house. Thus we have to practice the application of matching the

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 61

remaining karakas of the Asc with all the other significations of the IV house.

NOTE: The meaning of the words, "Primary Education" is subject to the changing times and to the average education standards of a society.

In the example chart, the 4th sublord Mercury is in the star of Venus, which is the 12th sublord. Thus the star denotes dangers to his educational efforts.

The sublord of the sublord of the 4th house is Rahu which is the sublord of the 7th house, i.e., 8th to the 12th house. Hence the scope for getting educated is not wide and is potentially limited to learnings through experience.

DIMENSION II (DASA BHUKTHIES):

Certain Bhukthies and Antaras of Jupiter would have helped the client to continue his studies for a while, since it is in the star and sub of the 4th sublord Mercury.

GRAHA KARAKA (PLANETARY SIGNIFICATIONS)

Jupiter is the only planet which is in the

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 62

star of Mercury, the IV sublord.

Jupiter would lead the Asc to have higher interest in gaining knowledge, increase in fats, interest to produce, neatness through make-up etc.

While the reactions of Mercury as the IV sublord on Asc remains permanent, Jupiter would supersede the same during its DBA periods. DIMENSION III: TRANSIT

The remaining planets would act temporarily for the Asc related significations of the IV cusp, while they happen to transit in the star of Mercury but depending upon their nature of favour to the Asc with respect to their natal cuspal interlinks.

Planetary significations of the Asc related significations of the IV bhava could be read with the use of the following example:

SUN: Production and growth of bones, Interest in political studies MOO: Production of blood, Interest in psycological studies MAR: Production of fleshes, Interest in

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 63

production technologies MER: High % of neurons, Interest in information and communication JUP: High % of fats in bodies, Interest in religious and moral education VEN: High % of flow from glands, Interest in artistic education SAT: High % of hair in the body, Interest in research fields such as Archaeology etc., RAH: Higher consumption of carbon di oxide, Interest in historical studies KETU: Higher flow of acidity in the body, Interest in magics

Tnus the readers can classify the remaining physical and mental significations of planets for the asc related significations of the IV bhava, for precise predictions.

ASC&V

The following significations of the V house, like lineage, gaiety, happiness, taste, celebrations, decorations, interest in arts, music and sports, tendancy to gamble and speculate, love and romance, being raped, rational thoughts, habits, morality, IQ level, faiths,

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 64 beliefs, body cells, heart, relief from diseases etc are related to Asc.

What the V house would render on the Asc could be identified from the following list of priniciples of linkage:

1,1 Status as an artist

1.2 Income in the fields of SG & AC 1,3 Flow of deep thoughts as a writer and a poet 1,4: Excellence shown as a craftsman 1,5: Natural exhibition of artistic talents as a prodigy 1,6 Service as an artist 1,7 Entertainer of society as an artist 1,8 Loss of reputation and respect in the field of arts 1,9: Spiritual beliefs as an artist 1,10: Professional artists, reputed astrologers 1,11: Inclined towards enjoyments and pleasures through involvements in the field of arts 1,12: Getting retired from the artistic fields

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 65

DIMENSION 1: POTENTIAL:

If the 5th sublord gets linked to the following, then one would become as :

a) 1, 6 & 11 - Sportsman b) 1, 3, 6 & 10 - Actor c) 2, 3, 6 & 10 - Singer

d) 1, 5, 9,10 & 11 - Politician

e) 1, 3, 9 & 12 - Writer

f) 4& 10 - Production of films, Institution of arts.

• For further details refer PCI- Chapter V Bhava.

In this example chart, the 5th sublord is Jupiter, which is in the star and sub of Mercury. Mercury happens to be the sublord of houses 2, 4 & 10. Not a favourable combination to the spiritual cycle of life. The native would run after materialistic benefits as his mind would never get satisfied with desires. Arts would lead as a part of his profession (10) and source of income (2) added to running an own institution of arts (4). Since the starlord of the sublord of the 5th cusp is Mercury, it would denote the field of interest and the native is, in fact, an astrologer.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 66 ROMANCE & LOVE:

5th sublord Jupiter is in the star and sub of Mercury, which is the sublord of 2 (Neutral), 4 (Unfavourable) & 10 (Neutral).

Houses 4 & 10 would give failures in love affairs to the Asc. Linkage of 4 & 10, would detatch his committment of love affairs. The person could satisfy only his own ego (10).

INTERESTS:

Since the 5th sublord is linked to the houses 2, 4 & 10, through its starlord, the natural interests of the native would be towards collection of valuable articles and wealth (2), acquisition of lands, vehicles and household appliances (4) and venturing into own business (10) etc,. This will be more prominent for him during the DBA periods of Jupiter.

DIMENSION II (DBA PERIODS):

The planets Sun & Saturn are in the sub of Jupiter, the 5th sublord. No planet is in the star of Jupiter.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 67 GRAHA KARAKA (PLANETARY SIGNIFICATIONS)

Sun would give generosity, pride, participation in government functions etc.

Saturn would increase immunity to diseases, friendship with persons of lower status, taking dry foods etc.,

While the karakas of Jupiter as the 5th sublord to Asc remains permanent, Sun & Saturn would supersede the same during their own DBA periods.

DIMENSION III: TRANSIT

The remaining planets would act temporarily for the Asc related significations of the V cusp, while they happen to transit in the star of Jupiter, but depending upon their nature of favour to the Asc with respect to their natal cuspal interlinks.

Planetary significations of the Asc related significations of the V bhava could be read with the use of the following example:

SUN: Self-satisfaction in physical pleasures, Artistic interests with nobility

"Applications of Cuspal interlinks" 68

MOO: Quick in copulations, Artistic interests with Imagination MAR: Harsh approach during copulations, Artistic interests with arrogance MER: Sexual pleasures with more fore-plays, Artistic interest with cleverness JUP: Prolonged copulations, Artistic interests with devotion VEN: Artistic approach during copulations, Artistic interests with entertaining natures SAT: Pains and dejections in copulations, Artistic interests with traditional styles RAH: Immoral sexual pleasures, Artistic interests with investigating natures KETU:Sexual pleasures in indecent ways, Artistic interests with criminal natures

Thus the readers can classify the remaining physical and mental significations of planets for the asc related significations of the V bhava, for precise predictions.

ASC & VI

Care and maintenance, service, food habits and dressing sense, taking medicines, food poison, stomach and digestion system,

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 69

hurdles and problems in self-efforts, diseases and problems to health are some of the Asc related significations of the 6th Bhava.

(HEALTH) lj Asc Potential

a) Asc sublord is Mars and it is in SAT- SUN-RAHU-MERC. (RECEIVER) (Potential 1)

i) Starlord Sun is the 6th cuspal sublord.

Hence, generally speaking, the native would be unhealthy.

ii) Sublord Rahu is the 7th cuspal sublord.

Since it is neutral to 6, it would favour and increase the problems to health and would reduce the power of immunity for the native.

b) Asc subsublord is Moon and it is in MER-SUN-RAH-VEN (Potential 2)

i) Starlord Sun is the 6th cuspal sublord. ii) Sublord Rahu is the 7th cuspal sublord.

Potential 1+2 would denote the potential of reception of the health by the Asc, when the 6th house renders diseases to the native.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 70

II:POTENTIAL of the 6th CUSP: (TRANSMITTER)

6th cuspal sublord Sun is in JUP-VEN- JUP-SAT.

i) Starlord Venus is sublord of 12. (Unfavourable house to the Asc)

ii) Sublord Jupiter is sublord of 5 & 11 (Favourable houses to the Asc)

Though diseases are generally referred by the 6th house, they are actually being suffered by the Asc. Through its starlord, the sublord of the 6th cusp, Sun links with the XII house to the Asc leading to prolonged illnesses, unbearable pains, stress, expenses through hospitalization etc.,

The sublord (Jupiter) of the 6th sublord (Sun) is the sublord of 5 & 11th cusps and the subsublord of 9th. Here Jupiter almost negates the significations of Venus, the starlord of Sun, thus providing the native some relief.

III) KINDS OF DISEASES:

Kinds of diseases could be traced by

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 71

compiling the significations of

i) the actual cuspal point of the 6th house

· i-a) 6th cusp fails in Aries sign (Mesha) Head ache, pain in nerves, coma, giddiness, disorders in brain & blood vessels, bacterial diseases & mental stress.

i-b) 6th cusp falls in Bharani Star.

Native will suffer through diseases in the body parts denoted by Bharani - Head ache caused by blood pressure, chest pains etc.

i-c) Sun is the sublord and subsublord of 6th cusp. Diseases in bones.

i-d) Moon, Mars & Rahu are the planets that transit in the star or sub of Sun, the 6th sublord.

Mars is sublord of Asc & 3.

Hard labour or overjoy would bring diseases. * Communication parts (Nerves) of the body.

The karaka of Mars: Highly painful, flesh & muscles.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 72

Moon is sublord of 9th and subsublord of Asc. Changes in the general structure of the body. The karaka of Moon: Blood, sudden and immediate illness, infections through liquids and importantly genetical diseases.

ii) The residential Sign,Star and Sub of the 6th SBL(Sun)

ii-a) SAGITTARIUS: Hips, troubles in anus, piles, fistula, (9th to the Kalachakra) Nerves in legs & cancer etc.

ii-b) POORVASHADA: Diabetes, respiratory disorders, cancer etc.

ii-c) JUPITER: Tissues, cholesterol & fats.

IV: DASA POTENTIAL (II DIMENSION)

Moon, Mars & Rahu are the planets that are connected with the Sun, the 6th sublord.

Though linked with the 6th cusp, Rahu, the 7th sublord has no link with the Asc. Hence Rahu is not empowered to cause for diseases for the native.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 73

MOO Dasa upto the age of 13} MAR 20} RAH 38} [Average human JUP 54} life cycle] SAT 73} Mars, Asc sublord and Moon, the Asc subsublord would damage the health of the native during their respective DBAS periods.

V : GOCHARA (TRANSIT)

a) The starlord (Sat), the sublord (Mars) the subsublord (Moon) of the Asc, while they get to transit in the star of Sun, the 6th cuspal sublord, would make the client to suffer from diseases.

b) The lords of the current DBAS, while transiting either in the star of the Asc starlord or Asc sublord or Asc subsublord, ( to mean a link and to stand as a matter to the Asc ) and also in the sub of the 6th sublord (Sun, in this case) would make the client to suffer from diseases.

The nature and the type of the diseases would vary according to the sign, star and the sub in which the concerned planet is actually in transit, in addition to its own significations (karakas).

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 74

These diseases would only be temporary. Until the Gochara (Transit) turns to normalcy, during the DBAS periods of Mars & Moon, the diseases may get prolonged.

VI: DURATION OF A DISEASE

The length and the period of the diseases could be studied from the DBAS periods of the concerned planet, which are empowered to cause diseases to the client. To say it in other words,

a) As per the potential, the planets Mars and Moon are to give diseases during their respective periods. Since the periods of Bhukthi, Antara and the Sookshma of Mars would immediately succeed the periods of Moon, as per the sequence of UDU MAHADASA, the periods of illness would relatively be a little longer and the nature of diseases would also change from one kind to the other.

b) Whenever the planets Mars & Moon are transiting in the star of Sun, irrespective of the changes in the periods of the Udu Mahadasa, they would cause for problems in health. On all Sun star days, health could not remain sound. Until the planets Mars and Moon

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 75 move out from the star of Sun, the problems of health would sustain.

c) Fortunately in this chart, the 6th cuspal sublord is Sun, a planet with the least proportion of UDU MAHADASA. Also the Asc sublord is Mars and the subsublord is MOON, both fast moving planets with smaller proportions. So, the duration of illnesses for this native would relatively be for short periods only.

VII: NOTES

1. In this example chart, the planet Sun is both the sublord and the subsublord of the 6th cusp. It would not be so in 8 out of the 9 cases; Hence, the subsub alongwith the sub is to be studied before finalizing the due merit of the chart.

2. Readers could have noticed from the above example that almost all the diseases have been listed as the probable diseases. It is so, because a person suffers due to gastric problems for a few minutes; suffers from head-ache for a few hours; suffers due to tooth- ache for a whole night; suffers due to an injury in the legs or limbs for a week; suffers from some sort of swellings or the other for about a month; suffers from a fracture for almost 8 to 10 months.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 76 All of us at least once or twice in our life, suffer from tooth decay, viral fever, food poisoning and infections. Hence we need not get scared about this long list of diseases.

3. Diseases can be classified into two categories as temporary and permanent. Temporary diseases are caused mainly by the Gochara/ Transit of the planets. Diseases remain as permanent due to the DBAS lords. Health gets deteriorated when the factors of the permanancy are favoured by the temporary factors. For example, when the Asc gets connected to the 6th and the 8th cusps at the same time, { this could be possible only when the star or the sub or the ssl of the 6th cusp is also the star or the sub or the subsub of the 8th cusp} the diseases would lead upto surgery or the removal of that part of the body or considerable loss of blood or amputations etc.

4. Supposing that a person without a natal chart queries about his health problems, then we will have to erect a Horary chart. Use of this chart should be restricted only to one current question on health.

5. The details of the nature and kinds of diseases for different cusps, planets, signs, stars could be read from the book, "Principles

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 77 of Cuspal Inter links", written by this author, and published by Sagar Publications, New Delhi.

MORE on VI:

What the VI house would render on the Asc, could be identified from the following list of priniciples of linkage:

1,1: Losing consciousness because of food habits 1,2: Diseases caused by excessive intake of food 1,3: Arrest of movements due to food habits 1,4: Excessive production in the organs of the body caused by food habits 1,5: Cure from diseases, preserving health by diet control 1,6 Diseases caused by food shabits 1,7: Contagious diseases, marrying the servant 1,8: Increase in diseases 1,9: Changes in the structure of body due to food habits 1,10: Excessive production in the body due to food habits 1,11: Increase in resistance capacity due to food

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 78

habits 1,12: Frequent illnesses and subsequent medical expenditures

1. In the example chart, the 6th sublord Sun is in the star of Venus, the sublord of the 12th and is in the sub of Jupiter, the sublord of 5 & 11. Only with the help of others (5 & 11), the native can overcome difficulties. 2. The starlord Venus indicates vegetables and fruits, while the sublord Jupiter indicates oily and fatty foods to denote the food choices of the native.

2. Venus & Jupiter would denote the costlier clothes of mild and soft colours like yellow, white, orange and light blue to identify the dressing sense of the native.

DIMENSION II (DBA PERIODS):

Sun is the 6th sublord; Moon, Mars & Rahu are the planets which are in the star or sub of Sun. GRAHA KARAKA (PLANETARY SIGNIFICATIONS)

Moon: Water, blood, thoughts and mind, vegetables that contain more percentage of

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 79 water and white coloured dresses.

Mars: Muscles and flesh, diseases caused by excess heat, red coloured vegetables, dal varities, non-vegetarian foods etc,.

Rahu: Resipiratory functions, fatty foods, liquor, drugs, smoking etc.

While the significations of Sun, as the 6th sublord on Asc remains permanent, Moon, Mars and Rahu would supersede the same with their significations during their DBA periods.

DIMENSION III: TRANSIT

The remaining planets would act temporarily for the Asc related significations (Like diseases) of the VI cusp, while they happen to transit in the star of Sun, but depending upon their nature of favour to the Asc with respect to their natal cuspal interlinks.

Planetary significations of the Asc related significations of the IV bhava could be read with the use of the following example:

SUN: Diseases in bones, Mental courage MOO: Diseases in blood, Wavering mind

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 80

MAR: Diseases in flesh, Bold attitude MER: Diseases in nerves, Cunning mind JUP: Diseases caused by fats, Composed in nature VEN: Diseases in glands, Happy and romantic nature SAT: Diseases in skin, Dull and lethargic mind RAH: Diseases in respiratory system, Obesity, Lusty KET: Diseases caused by acidity, Criminal mind

Thus the readers can classify the remaining physical and mental significations of planets for the Asc related significations cf the IV bhava, for precise predictions.

ASC & VII

Marriage and Business partnerships, Questioning, Law abiding citizen, Victory in litigations and winning enmity, Exchanges, Change in journeys, Threat to longevity, Meetings, Sentiments, Persons whom one meets at his business place, Opponents, Contagious diseases, Kidney, Uterus and Urinary system etc are the few among the Asc related significations of the VII house.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 81 What the VII house would provide for the Asc could be identified from the following list of priniciples of linkage:

1,1: Dependancy and inclination of Life/ Business partners on the native 1,2: Income for the native through L/B partners and short life of L/B 1,3: L/B partners as suited to the likings of the native 1,4: Dissatisfactions through L/B partners 1,5: Happy and harmonious relationships with L/B partners 1,6: Indifferent attitude of L/B partners towards the native 1,7: Compromising and understandings with L/B partners 1,8: Being murdered or threatened by L/B partners 1,9: Second marriage 1,10: Dissatisfaction in married life caused by spouse 1,11: Marriage with the person of native's choice 1,12: Secret troubles caused by L/B partners

In the example chart, the 7th sublord is Rahu which transits in its own star and in Sun

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 82

sub. Sun is the sublord of the 6th cusp. The 6th is a house of materialistic success to the Asc and so, the native could succeed in his social relations. This could be possible during the dasa, bhukthi and the antara periods of Rahu, the 7th cuspal sublord.

DIMENSION II (DBA Periods)

Rahu is the 7th sublord and Moon, Mars, Rahu & Mercury are the planets which are either in the star or the sub of Rahu.

GRAHA KARAKA (PLANETARY SIGNIFICATIONS)

Moon: Meeting young partners, persons without stable mind, highly sensitive persons, thinkers etc.

Mars: Persons with short-temper, immoralities, more inclined to sexual pleasures, liars

Mercury: Persons with knowledge, activeness, wavering mind and thoughts, more sense of humour etc.

Rahu: Aged persons, more interested in sexual pleasures, obese persons.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 83 While the karakas of Rahu, as the VII sublord on Asc would remain permanent, the karakas of Moon, Mars & Mercury would come to the forefront during their respective DBA periods. DIMENSION III: TRANSIT

The remaining planets would act temporarily for the Asc related significations (Like diseases) of the VII cusp, while they happen to transit in the star of Rahu, but depending upon their nature of favour to the Asc with respect to their natal cuspal interlinks. Planetary significations of the Asc related significations of the VII bhava could be read with the use of the following example:

SUN: Lecherous, Egoistic towards spouse MOO: Quick in copulations, Flexible attitude towards spouse MAR: Arrogant apporoach in sex, Rough and tough towards spouse MER: Imaginative in sex, Understanding approach towards spouse JUP: Loves decent sex, Respecting the sentiments of the spouse VEN: Artistic approach and fond of variety in sex, Romantic approach towards spouse

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 84

SAT: Indecent and irreverent towards sex, Wavering attitude towards spouse RAH: Excessive sexual interests and intentions of home-sexuality, Attached towards spouse KET: Ugly and cruel attitude in sex, Criminal and sadistic towards spouse

Thus the readers can classify the remaining physical and mental significations of planets for the Asc related significations of the VII bhava, for precise predictions.

ASC & VIII

Longevity, Mode of death, Accidents, Surgery, Sorrows, Mental agony and tension, Failure of productive organs of the body, End of journey, Stress and pain, Allegations, Private parts of the body, Hurdles, Distress, Delays, Being deceived, Suicides or being murdered, Rapes, Failures in fulfillments of ambitions, Harrassrhents by others and Sudden events are the 8th house significations which are related to ascendant.

What the VIII house would render on the Asc could be identified from the following list of priniciples of linkage:

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 85

1,1: Long life 1,2: Unexpected profits through self efforts 1,3: Sudden demise 1,4: Unexpected acquisitions of properties & respect 1,5: Unexpected interest in politics 1,6: Unexpected success and diseases 1,7: Unexpected meetings and sudden marriage 1,8: Unexpected death or suicides 1,9: Unexpected illegal affairs or research 1,10: Unexpected promotions 1,11: Unexpected pleasures 1,12: Unexpected worries and losses

LONGEVITY. DIMENSION I

1.Asc Potential : (The RECEIVER)

To decide about one's potential to ensure the approximate period of his life, Asc sublord is to be studied.

In this example, the Asc has fallen in Scorpio, a fixed sign. For any fixed sign, houses 2 & 7 would stand as maraka sthanas ( Houses

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 86

of Death ). 9 would be the badaka sthana ( House of Danger ). Linkage of Asc sublord to any one or two of the above houses, i.e., 2, 7 & 9 would mean a short life. Houses 1, 3, 5 & 11 would be favourable for a long life. The remaining houses are 4, 6, 8, 10 & 12.

Asc sublord Mars is in the star of Sun, the 6th sublord. Hence, we can presume that the life of the native is confined to a middle age (33-66) range only.

Note: It is difficult to mark boundaries for the short, middle and the long life etc., While we divide the 120 years of Udu Mahadasa into three equal parts, we get 40 years each; Or if we take the normal span of life as 100 years for division, we get 33 years each. It becomes more difficult to mark a distinction to predict the death at the age of 32 years and at the age of 33 years; Even in the same sect of middle age, deaths at the age of 33 and at the age 65 are completely different with one another. Anyhow, for time being, or till that time when we could find a better classification, let us stick to the suggestions made by Shri M. Bhaskar Rao in his work, "Graha Saptha Sthithi".

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 87 2. VIII POTENTIAL: (The TRANSMITTER)

8th is the house of death.

8th sublord is Saturn and it resides in Mars star, the sublord of cusps 1 & 3 { Scorpio & Capricorn }.

Houses 1 & 3 indicate sudden death. Death due to boiled wafer (35 of P.N 54- PCI) Death near machineries {37 of P.N 54 -PCI}

Jupiter, the sublord of the houses 5 & 11, is the sublord of the 8th cuspal sublord. It presumes death at a happy moment, i.e., when the native is enjoying his reputation.

3. PERIOD of DEATH:

The 8th sublord when linked to the Asc gives death to the client. Death would occur during the combined DBA periods of planets in the series of the 8th house, which happens to carry a linkage to the Asc or to its vrithisthana, the III house.

8th cusp is: Mercury sign; Rahu Star; Saturn Sub; Sun subsub.

Mercury, Rahu and Sun are not

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 88

connected to the Asc either by their direct appearance or through their starlords. Saturn is the only planet which is empowered to cause death.

Saturn, during its dasa would give death to the client. No one is in the star or the sub of Saturn. Hence Saturn alone is to give death to the client.

Saturn dasa, Saturn bhukti would be fatal to the native, while it happens to transit in the star of Asc sublord (Mars) and in its own sub (Saturn). NOTES:

1. This author does not believe in taking the Maraka and Badaka periods for calculating the time of death: Only when these sthanas are linked both to the Asc & to the 8th, they are empowered to cause death.

2. The starlord of the sublord of the 8th cusp is the supreme commander of the sublord of the 8th cusp; In this example, the starlord Mars is the sublord of 1 & 3; With its significations of 1 & 3, the planet Mars would drive Saturn to cause death.

i) Since Mars is not the sublord of the 6th

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 89 cusp, or anyone of the Vrithisthanas of Diseases, i.e., the 7th (2 to 6), or the 8th (3 to 6) or the 4th (11th to 6th), diseases would not lead to death.

ii) Since Mars is not the sublord of the 8th cusp, or anyone of the Vrithisthanas of accidents, i.e., the 9th (2 to 8), or the 10th (3 to 8) or the 6th (11th to 8th), accidents would not lead to death.

iii) Since Mars is not the sublord of any one of the baraka or badaka sthanas {2, 7 & 9}, the possibility of natural death by attaining old age may also be ruled out.

3. The use of subsubs both for cusps and for the planets have been deliberately avoided in this example, for simplification. Hence the above derivations are subject to certain limitations.

4." What we are going to take, while we sit in the dining table on the immediate next occassion and the death would always remain as secrets to human knowledge" according to holy Qur-an. Hence it is better not to waste too much of our time and energy in predicting the time of death; Let us be free from the fear of death.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 90 5. I would like to request the readers not to draw hasty predictions with their own horoscopes in determining longevity. Self- analysis would always carry more elements of subjectivity. Afer all, certain aspects of life, only when they are kept secret to our knowledge, would make us to carry on with our daily routines happily with hopes.

DIMENSION II (DBAS)

8th sublord is Saturn; No planet is in the star or the sub of Sat. Hence the karakas of Sat, as the 8th sublord would remain for ever.

DIMENSION III (TRANSIT)

Since no one is linked with the 8th sublord in natal chart, the transit of all the planets while they happen to transit in the star of Saturn, would cause for damages and dangers to the native through their respective natal potentials.

Planetary significations of the Asc related significations of the VIII bhava could be read with the use of the following example:

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 91

SUN: Damages in bones, Tensions created by false prestige MOO: Damages in blood, Confused mind MAR: Damages in muscles, Adamant MER: Damages in nerves, Forgetfulness JUP: Damages caused by cholesterol, Sacrifices VEN: Damages in glands, Self pride SAT: Damages in skin, Inferiority complex RAH: Damages in respiratory organs, Pretending as a sacrificial person KET: Damages in digestive organs, Rumour monger

Thus the readers can classify the remaining physical and mental significations of planets for the Asc related significations of the VIII bhava, for precise predictions.

ASC & IX

Loyalty, Sincerity, Wisdom, Higher education, Anus, Illegal affairs, Long journey, Communications, Messenger, Ambassador, Faith in god and moral values, Fortunes, Devotion, National leader, Thoughts, Deep sleep, Meditation, Research and discoveries, Creations and innovations, Counselling and

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 92 worships, Foreign journeys etc are some of the IX house matters related to Asc.

What the IX house would render on the Asc could be identified from the following list of priniciples of linkage:

1,1 Status through Higher education 1,2: Income and status through higher education 1,3: Publicity through higher education 1,4: Acquisition of ancestral properties 1,5: Winning ancestral respects 1,6: Genetical diseases 1,7: Getting married to a divorcee 1,8: Punishments by law, return journeys 1,9: Affectionate person through illegal affairs 1,10: Holding higher posts through excellence in higher education 1,11: Third wife or satisfactory illegal affairs 1,12: Secret illegal affairs

DIMENSION I : Potential

In the example chart, the 9th sublord is Moon, which transits in Sun star and Rahu sub.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 93 Sun is the 6th sublord { Neutral to the Asc}, while Rahu is the 7th sublord { neutral to the 6th house }.

They render success through hard labour and self-ventures. They do not favour the Asc for higher education.

DIMENSION II: (DBAS)

Moon is the sublord of 9 th cusp. Venus is the only planet which is in the star of Moon.

GRAHA KARAKA (PLANETARY SIGNIFICATIONS)

Venus would lead to illegal activities, Sex education, Capacity to research, Pilgrimage, Obesity, Changes in the appearance etc.

While the significations of Moon, as the sublord of the 9th cusp on Asc remain permanent, the significations of Venus would also come to stage during its DBA periods.

DIMENSION III: (TRANSIT)

While Venus is the only planet which is in the star of Moon, the 9th sublord, the remaining planets, according to their natal strength, would

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 94 react temporarily on the 9th house, while they happen to transit in the star of Moon .

Planetary significations of the Asc related significations of the IX bhava could be read with the use of the following example:

SUN: Unnatural growth in bones, Honest in research activities. MOO: High % of hemoglobin in blood, Speedy research mind. MAR: Well structured body by birth, Arrogant approach in research activities. MER: Extra fingers in hands and legs, Sharp and mathematical approach in research activities. JUP: Obesity, Committed towards research VEN: Excessive secretion of glands, Artistic approach towards research SAT: Rough skin, Dedicated and hard working in research activities RAH: Masculine females / Feminine males, Team- spirited research mind KET: Excessive appetite, Criminal intentions in research

Thus the readers can classify the

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 95 remaining physical and mental significations of planets for the Asc related significations of the IX bhava, for precise predictions.

DIMENSION I:

In the example chart, the 10th sublord Mercury is in Venus star, the 12th sublord, and in Rahu sub, the 7th sublord.

Link of 12 & 7 is not a factor to favour the Asc, though the sub denies the star. The native could not make gains or reputation in his professional life during the DBAS periods of Mercury. DIMENSION II: (DBAS)

Jupiter is the only resident in the star and sub of Mercury, the 10th sublord.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 97

GRAHA KARAKA (PLANETARY SIGNIFICATIONS)

Jup: Generosity, status and honour, lack of interest in attending feasts, celebrations.etc.

While the significations of Mercury would remain permanent as the 10th sublord on Asc, the significations of Jupiter could also come to play in the forefront during its DBA periods.

DIMENSION III: (TRANSIT)

The remaining planets would, according to their natal strength, would react on the X house, while they happen to transit in the star of Mercury

REACTIONS:

Asc has a permanent linkage with the 6th house and the 7th house. But, when its sublord Mars happens to transit in various stars other than that of Sun or Rahu, it is bound by the respective starlords and sublords to act for them and to react on the cusps to which its starlords or sublords are the cuspal sublords. What the Asc would render on the remaining cusps, as reactions, could be aerived from the following

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 107

Asc carries 6 & 7 with it in this chart. Thus during the DBA periods of Mars, while it happens to transit in the star of Venus, the XII sublord, would cause for disrespect to the native by way of secret diseases.

CONCLUSION: Notes: 1.Sun is in the star of Venus (12) and in the sub of Jupiter (5 & 11). Now the significations of Sun, on Asc during its DBAS periods, as it is linked with 5, 11 & 12 would have to effect on Asc. But some of these significations may remain contradictory with each other. If so, how would Sun perform during its DBA periods ?

2. During its Bhukthi (Minimum 3 months and 18 days), since it is a fast moving planet, the planet Sun would be transiting in at least 9 consecutive stars. It means it would be

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 118 transiting in the stars of all the planets.

Here comes the role of transit. If Sun transits in the star of Jupiter, then significations of 5 & 11 on Ascwould be more; If it transits in the star of Venus, then siginifications of the 12th house on Asc would be more.

3. If Sun transits neither in the star of Jupiter nor in the star of Venus, then what would happen? As per the favourable position to the prime significations of Sun (5, 6, 11 & 12) by the concerned transit starlord of Sun would come to the forefront. These combined significations would lead to complexities. As I fear that it may divert and confuse the readers, I would prefer to explain the complexities of cuspal significations in a different book.

4. From the given example, the combined and the complex siginifications on Asc (Excluding the reactions on the independant siginifications of the remaining 11 houses ) of the nine planets could be listed as below.

SUN: 5,6,11 &12 MOO: 6, 7 & 9 MAR: 1, 3, 6 & 7 RAH: 6 & 7+8 (Residence, since it is a node)

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 119 JUP: 2, 4, 5,10 & 11 SAT: 1, 3, 5, 8 & 11 MER: 2, 4, 7, 10 & 12 KET: 1,3 & 12 + 2 (Residence, since it is a node) VEN: 9&12

Thus we have read the methodology of identifying the Asc related matters of various cusps and their positions of favour to the Asc. The DBAS periods of the respective cuspal sublords would render their due significations to the Asc accordingly.

Thus all the 12 cusps and all the 9 planets, from the moment of birth to the time of death, without likes or dislikes, as per their bindings of cuspal interlinks, are always acting on the Asc simultaneously.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 120 II HOUSE HOUSE OF FINANCE

Every house has its own bundle of significations. These significations are interwoven with the remaining 11 houses so as to form the interlinks. The karaka of Finance of the II house or the karaka of Arts and Culture of the 5th house or the karaka of Profession of the 10th house could be identified in all the 12 bhavas or houses. It is true that the II house is the house of finance; but at the same time its significations have been distributed to all the remaining 11 houses and they would be the "UPA KARAKAS" or its auxiliary significations.

In medical science, primarily, the general condition of the patient is ensured before going in for specific treatments to a particular organ of the body. Likewise, identifying the specific significations of a particular house, with respect to its natural club, in formulating a methodology of analyzing a chart, would indeed be the scientific and the logical way of study as per cuspal interlinks. For example, Il house when in the company of 6, 10 & 11 means finance and fortunes. When in the company of 7 & 12, it stands to create dangers to the life of a person.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 121 In anatomy classes, to gain academic knowledge, the medical students would be supplied with a piece of human leg or hand, or brain or lungs of a corpse. But, in practice, doctors would not attempt to make a heart surgery by physically detaching the heart from the body. Thus to simplify the procedure of learning, the combined significations are deliberately and artificially being isolated here for study. But please remember that while doing so, understandably, this artificial isolation would tend to carry certain ambiguities.

1. With its significations, every house would surely act on the relatively independant siginifications of the other 11 houses.

2. With their own significations, the remaining 11 houses would definitely act and influence on the relatively independant siginifications of the particular house under study.

In the earlier chapter for the Asc, we have studied the significations of all the 12 houses, that are meant only for shaping the Asc. That is why we have named those significations as the Asc related or Asc dependant significations.

There are quite a few significations of the

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 122 Il house that are almost unrelated to the Asc such as money transactions, salary, profit or loss, jewellery, gems, documents, metals, negotiable instruments and sources of income etc. With these significations, the II house acts on the other 11 houses as it receives reactions from them in return.

The following are the general principles, when the sublord of the concerned cusp reside in the star or sub or subsub of the cuspal sublord of the II cusp.

Asc on II: Money from self efforts. on II: Money as bank balance, cash, gold, gems in hand. on II: Money as negotiable instruments and from agreements. IV on II: Money as properties. V on il: Money earned through commissions, sports and gambling. VI on II: Money through loans, service. VII on ll: Money through overdrafts and cash-credits from banks VIII on II: Money donated, insurance claims, bribes, provident fund, unexpected money

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 123

IX on Il: Money through ancestral properties. X on II: Money awarded, income through profession. XI on Il: Money received as expected. XII on Il: Money as returns from Investments and lendings, secret or black money, Money from treasures.

It has been emphasized in PCI as well as in the introduction of this book that the linkage of a cusp to 1,3, 5, 9& 11 to itself favours the house and its linkages to 4,7,8 & 12 unfavours it and houses 2, 6, & 10 would require more efforts to become favourable. As such linkages of the sublord of the II cusp through its starlord, sublord, or subsublord to houses 2,4,6,10 & 12 is favourable, and its linkages to houses 5, 8 & 9 will be unfavourable and its linkage to 3, 7, 11 would remain neutral. The link with the Asc, though it becomes the 12th to the II, is NOT unfavourable because it is an exceptional exception.

The II house when linked i.e., when the sublord of the II cusp is in the star or the sub of each of the other 11 houses, it would register its reactions on the respective houses which are as follows:

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 124

llon Asc: Status through money. on II: Improvement in the financial position. Il on III: Preserving the present financial conditions. Il on IV: Multiplication of money. Il on V: Loss of money in gamblings or transfer of money in the name of partner or wife Il on VI: Financial support to self endeavours Il on VII: Financial assistance to partners Il on VIII: Money that is outstanding or spent for insurance Il on IX: Financial crisis Il on X: Profession in financial institutions Il on XI: Immense flow of money Il on XII: Increase in the investments.

POTENTIAL of the II house:

In this example chart, Mercury, the II sublord, is in Venus star and Rahu sub. Venus is the cuspal sublord of the 12th house. Linkage of the II cuspal sublord to the XII house means a position of gain to the II house. But Mercury is in the sub of Rahu, the 7th sublord, which becomes as 8th to the 12th house, to negate this favour.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 125 In response, the II house, on 12, would increase the investments & expenditures which makes the native to become incapable of saving his own income.

Combination of 12 & 7 would drive the native to suffer from losses through wasteful investments and extravagant expenditures etc. The persons whom the native happens to meet, would gain through him. Possibilities of his money being stolen, could not be ruled out.

ii) The planets which happen to be in the star or sub of Mercury, the Il sublord, are empowered to operate for the II house.(Please refer the chart)

Jupiter is in the star & sub of Mercury. Rahu is in the subsub of Mercury.

Star shows the involvement and Sub confirms and favours the said involvement. Hence Jupiter is a strong significator to execute the II house significations. During the DBAS periods of Jupiter the native would enjoy the benefits of the Il house. Jupiter, the permanent significator of the II house, is the sublord of houses 5 & 11, to mean that the native could gain income through brokerage or from friends and children. The involvements in the fields of speculation and arts

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 126 can also bring him some success.

This is the general way of derivation. But, friends, life is not so simple to be explained within 12 such formulae. The native is also able to gain a reasonable income during the DBAS periods of the remaining planets, other than Mercury, the Il sublord and Jupiter, the resident in the star and sub of Mercury. How could it be possible? It is because all the 12 house somehow contribute for money through multiple means. Even in a poor man's life, all the significations of the 12 houses, either jointly or separately, operate on few occassions to give him some financial reliefs. If so,

1. What are the factors to make such things possible? 2) How could it be possible? 3) When is it possible?

On the reverse, the Il house does not remain idle and dormant. It also contributes something or the other to the remaining cusps, with its tool, "MONEY". It induces the Asc to be a money minded person, to save the income as negotiable instruments, to purchase properties, to provide a financial platform to gamble, to deposit for contracts, to enter into partnerships, to pay for his insurance premium, to enter into

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 127

export business, to work in a financial institution, to fulfil his materialistic satisfactions, to increase the investments etc.

Thus with its own potential, the II house,

i) Acts on the remaining 11 houses. ii) Receives reactions from them in return.

Thus, only when we comprehensively study the potentials of the remaining 11 houses to react on the matters of the II house, we could identify the general principles that would suitably be applied for the chart under study.

The ROLE of TRANSIT:

The transits of the sublords of the remaining 11 houses in the star of the II cusp would act for the money transactions according to their karakas of Cuspal & Planetary natures but not withstanding the potential of the Il cusp in the chart.

On the reverse, the II sublord, Mercury, with 12 & 7 in its bag, during its transit in the respective stars of the remaining cusps, would register its reactions with the significations of finance to those cusps, where the starlord of its transit is the natal cuspal sublord.

ASC on II:

What does the Asc render to the il house?

The Asc sublord Mars is in the star of Sun, the 6th sublord and in the sub of Rahu, the 7th sublord. Generally speaking, Asc has no direct linkage with the II house. But Asc will get a linkage with the II house, when its sublord Mars, happens to transit in the star or sub of Mercury, the II sublord.

Asc, as an exception would favour the II house though it is the12th house to it. In this

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 130 example Asc has the permanent linkage of 6 & 7 with it. Houses 6 & 7 would become houses 5 & 6 to the II house which would stand to favour the Il house.

Principles of linkages of the Asc on the II house are:

2,1 Improvement in oratorical skills 2,2 Income through self efforts 2,3 Accumulation of valuables through self efforts 2,4 Properties and income through self efforts 2,5 Singer through self efforts 2,6 Service through self efforts 2,7 Savings at other's hands through self efforts 2,8: Voluntary donations 2,9: Voluntary gifts and trust activities 2,10: Professional success through self efforts 2,11: Expected monetary gains in self efforts 2,12: Voluntary Investments of savings

Now in the example chart, the Asc sublord, as it carries 6 & 7 with it, would enable the native to gain financial assistance in the form of borrowings from the society. This could be

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 131 experienced during the DBA periods of Mars, while it transits in the star or sub of Mercury. Since Mars is the karaka planet for brothers, copper and for stating false reasons, the sources also could be identified. Il on Asc:

(Reaction of the II house with the karaka of Finance)

General principles of linkage of the II house on the Asc are:

1,1: Prestige, Selfishness & Greediness in money matters 1,2: Income through self endeavours 1,3: Courage and confidence to build financial strength 1,4: Status and income through properties 1,5: Nature to gamble or tendency to take risks for income 1,6: Gains from litigations and competitions 1,7: Income through opposite sex, society or spouse. 1,8: Money through illegal sources, unexpected income 1,9: Income through foreign contacts or

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 132

ancestral properties 1,10: Capitalizing the authority for financial objectives 1,11: Accumulation of money to the satisfaction, by own efforts 1,12: Own efforts to preserve money secretly, Spendthrift in nature

In this example chart, the II sublord Mercury is in the star of Venus, which is the 12 th cuspal sublord. 12th becomes the 12th to the Asc. But, Mercury is in the sub of Rahu, the 7th sublord. 12th house effect is thus negated by the 7th house. Hence, the spendthrift nature of the native would frequently be in check by his wife or by the society in which he belongs to.

II o n II

Mercury, the II sublord, transits in the star of Venus, the 12th sublord. 12th is 11th to the II cusp, and is thus showing a favourable scope. 2 on 12 would denote increased investments & expenditures or probably the source which drives the native to make extravagant expenditures. 7th house is a house of danger to the 12th house. Hence the investments made would not provide due returns. The link of 12 & 7 would force the native to incur losses. The possibilities of his

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 133 money being stolen could not be ruled out.

General Principles of linkage of the II house, to itself are:

2,1 Utilizing the self earned money to himself 2,2: Savings as liquid cash 2,3: Savings as nagotiable instruments 2,4: Savings as properties 2,5: Extravagant expenditures through income 2,6: Profits earned through deposits 2,7: Saving the income with others 2,8: Lending the income for earning interest 2,9: Inadequate income 2,10: Income through profession 2,11: Sound financial status 2,12: Dividends of investments, income through 2nd profession

Mercury, the II cuspal sublord, would render the following results to the native during its DBA periods.

Mercury denotes modern appliances, hire purchases etc. Hence the nature of expenditures would be in the form of purchases of unnecessary appliances.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 134 Jupiter is the only planet that is in the star of Mercury, the Il sublord. Jupiter is the sublord of 5 & 11. Income and savings would be possible as brokerage or from his children or through friends. Involvements in the field of arts and entertainments would improve his financial position.

The above could be possible during the DBA periods of Jupiter, the karaka planet for gold and higher denominations of money etc., and the native would transact his money in the above modes. IIl on II:

III house is second house to the II house, a neutral position to the II. In the given example, IlI sublord Mars, is in the star of Sun, the 6th sublord. 6th house is a house of favour to the II house. Mars is in the sub of Rahu, the 7th sublord. 7th house would remain neutral to the 6th house. Hence, in this example chart, the II house would be favoured by the III house.

Principles of linkage of the III house on the II house are:

2,1: Breach and breaks in negotiations and agreements

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 135

2,2: Monetary gains through negotiations and agreements 2,3: Receipt of cheques 2,4: Agreements on lands, vehicles & properties 2,5: Writing poems and articles 2,6: Receipt of income through agreements 2,7: Harrassing the opponents through letters and correspondence 2,8: Unexpected profits through correspondence 2,9: Financial crisis resulted by agreements 2,10: Promotions 2,11: Receipt of large sums of money in single payments, as desired 2,12: Loss of money in agreements

In this example chart, the III house by its link of 6 & 7, would stand favour to the II house to gain through will, documents, writings, agreements and negotiable instruments etc.

IlI sublord would steadily increase the small loans of the native (6) and finally drag him into troubles(7) as a debtor. IlI sublord Mars would also enable the native to gain through contracts (6). The above would happen to the

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 136 native during the DBAS periods of Mars, while it happens to transit in the star of Mercury, the II sublord. Il on lII:

General principles of linkage of the II house on the III house are:

3,1 Earnings through courageous efforts 3,2 Gains through communications 3,3 Changing stances for financial gains 3,4 Income through tenders and contracts 3,5 Income through lottery, poetry and articles published in journals 3,6: Loans through agreements, profits through promotions 3,7: Financial agreements with banks or financial institutions 3,8: Mental depressions in financial matters 3,9: Earnings through ancestral documents 3,10: Profits through business contracts 3,11: Financial gains in communications, advertisements etc 3,12: Profits through sales

The link of II house is to 12 & 7. Il sublord does not reside in the star, or sub or subsub of

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 137

the III house. But even then, as a naturally unfavourable house to negate the matters of the IlI house, would lead the native to lose his jewels, documents etc, during the DBA periods of Mercury and while it happens to transit in the star of Mars. IV on II

IV house is a house of favour to the II house. 4th sublord Mercury is in the star of Venus, the 12th sublord (11th to the II) but in the sub of Rahu, the 7th sublord (8th to the 12). Sub denies whatever the star intends to provide. Hence the IV house would modify into a neutral house to the II house.

Principles of linkage of the IV house on the II house are:

2,1: Residence as a palace 2,2: Owns a Bungalow 2,3: Sale/ Letting the bungalow for hire 2,4: Income through bungalow or two bungalows or godowns 2,5: Marriage halls or Cinema theatres, Guest houses, Resorts 2,6: Industries and buildings let out for rent 2,7: Taking charge of LVPs owned by others

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 138

2,8: Godown of scraps or waste materials or damaged articles 2,9: Lease of bungalow 2,10: Large scale industries, builders and contractors 2,11: Bungalow at a disputed place 2,12: Rest house, hospitals

Because of the linkage with 12 & 7, the unfavourable combination to the Il house, the sublord of the 4th cusp, would remain as an impotent spectator. 4th on 12 & 7 (1 & 6 of the 7th house) would mean gains to the partners. 4th with its adverse link, has also denied the native to enjoy any scholarship. Hence the native would incur losses by attempting into ventures in LVHP during the DBAS periods of Mercury, while it happens to transit in its own star.

Il on IV:

General principles of linkage of the II house, on the IV house are: 4,1: Income with status through Land, Vehicles, Houses and Properties (LVHP) 4,2: Income through construction of houses or production 4,3: Financial gains as brokerage in real

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 139

estates 4,4: Financing for LVHP 4,5: Gains through Casinos, Cinema Halls 4,6: Profits in services in LVHP 4,7: Bank loans on properties 4,8: Insurance claims out of accidents 4,9: Subsidy, royalty and scholarships in LVHP 4,10: Income through profession in LVHP 4,11: Profits from the litigations in properties 4,12: Profits and gains through investments in LVHP

The bag of II contains only 12 & 7. Il is a favourable house to the IV Hence it would induce the native to make extravagant investments on properties which carry very limited scope for liquidation during the DBA periods of Mercury while it transits in its own star.

V on II:

V house is 4th to the Il and hence a naturally unfavourable house. In the given example, Jupiter, the 5th sublord resides in Mercury star & sub. Mercury is the sublord of houses 2, 4 & 10, which are 1, 3 & 7 to the II house. So, the natural enemy has become a very favourable friend indeed.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 140 Principles of linkage of the V house on the II house are:

2,1: Loss of own money in gamblings 2,2: Profits through commissions and in gamblings 2,3: Multiplication of income through commissions and speculations 2,4: Collection of artistically valuable goods 2,5: Monetary benefits in A & C fields (Astrologer and Cine Actors) 2,6: Income by rendering service in A & C fields 2,7: Abduction of financial gains by the partner 2,8: Losses in gamblings 2,9: Financial troubles in commissions 2,10: Monetary gains in A & C fields 2,11: Immense wealth in A & C fields 2,12: Losses in A & C fields

In this example, since the 5th house is linked to 2, 4 & 10, would enable the native to gain commissions without much physical hardships during the DBAS periods of Jupiter, while it happens to transit in the star of Mercury.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 141

II on V:

General Principles of linkage of the II house with the V house are:

5,1: Gains in Sports, Games, Arts and Cultural fields (SG & AC) 5,2: Income through singing songs 5,3: Income from writings, drawings 5,4: Income from craft works 5,5: Income from artistic performances 5,6: Service and income in the fields of SG&AC 5,7: Gains as an agent or manager in SG & AC/ Trade unions 5,8: Gains through sexy and obscene dances and speech 5,9: Income through advertisements, contracts in SG & AC 5,10: Respectable income in SG & AC 5,11: Income as an entertainer in SG & AC 5,12: Income through secret arts or as a prostitute

With 12 & 7 in its bag, the II house, a neutral house to the 5th house, during the DBA periods of Mercury while it transits in the

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 142 star of Jupiter, would force the native to face difficulties in getting his money back which had been kept with his partner's custody or lent to others. VI on II:

VI house, by nature, is a favourable house to the II house. 6th sublord is Sun, which is in the star of Venus, the 12th sublord and is in the sub of Jupiter, the sublord of 5 & 11 (12th to the 6 & 12th). It is not an unfavourable linkage to the II.

Principles of linkage of the VI house on the II house are:

2,1 Loans for self enjoyments 2,2 Borrowings for savings 2,3 Interest in the deposits acquired through borrowings 2,4 Purchase of LVHP through borrowings 2,5 Speculation by acquiring loans 2,6 Clearing debts by acquiring loans 2,7 Getting loans for lending to others 2,8 Increased borrowings 2,9 Borrowings for illegal affairs 2,10: Service in financial institutions 2,11: Commissions in the purchase of negotiable

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 143 instruments 2,12: Borrowings for investments

Connection to houses 5, 11 & 12 by the 6th sublord in this chart shows that the native cannot expect regular income from steady employments. 12, 5 & 11 would also denote that the native has the repaying capacity to clear-off his loans. The VI, the house of servants, does not favour any kind of monetary gains from his employees or servants. The DBAs periods of Sun, while it happens to transit in the star of Mercury, would enable the native to clear-off his loans. Il on VI:

General Principles of linkage of the II house with the VI house are:

6,1: Acquiring loans through own efforts 6,2: Income by rendering service 6,3: Loans raised through negotiable instruments 6,4: Loans in LVHP 6,5: Becoming a debtor in the fields of SG&AC 6,6: Borrowings in a service institution or through servants

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 144

6,7: Loans through banks, or life/business partners 6,8: Getting loans more than the expectations 6,9: Borrowings from father or unknown persons 6,10: Pay and GPF advances, incentives for service 6,11: Borrowings for friends, in-laws and elder brothers 6,12: Borrowings for medical treatments or for reinvestments

With 12 & 7 in its bag, the II house, a favourable house (9th) to the 6th house, during the DBA periods of Mercury and when it transits in the star of Sun, would lead the native to repay a part of his debts. VII on II:

VII is a neutral house to the II house. In our example, the 7th sublord is Rahu which tran- sits in its own star and in the sub of Sun, the 6th sublord (Denial of 7).

Principles of linkage of the VII house on the II house are:

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 145 2,1: Requesting the assistance of others for self financial needs 2,2: Money with the assistance of others 2,3: Improvement in financial status through the assistance of others 2,4 Acquiring LVHP with the assistance of others 2,5: Pleasures with the financial assistance of others 2,6: Borrowings with the assistance of others 2,7: Income and friendships with the assistance of others 2,8: Unexpected gains with the assistance of others 2,9: Financial crisis on behalf of others 2,10: Professional developments with assistance of others 2,11: Voluntary friendships by others to assist the native 2,12: Investments with the assistance of others

Linkage to houses 6 & 7 would mean gains, at least in the form of service or through wife or partners and government servants (Sun). This could be possible during the DBAS periods of Rahu, while it transits in the star of Mercury, the II sublord.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 146 Il on VII:

General principles of linkage of the II house with the VII house are:

7,1: Monetary gains in the association of life/ business partners 7,2: Monetary benefits through L/BP 7,3: Monetary benefits from the negotiable instruments of L/BP 7,4: Monetary benefits through the visits of relatives 7,5: Gains through feasts and occassions with relatives 7,6: Bank loans 7,7: Leaving the money at the possession of others 7,8: Unexpected gains through L/BP 7,9: Monetary benefits through II wife/husband 7,10: Profits through business partners 7,11: Dowry money 7,12: Earnings of wife/husband or through illegal sources

With 12 & 7 in its bag, the II house, as an unfavourable house to the 7th house, during the DBA periods of Mercury while it transits in the

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 147 star of Rahu, would lead to loss of money by thefts. VIII on II:

VIII is an unfavourable house to the II house. 8th sublord is Saturn which is in the star of Mars, sublord of houses 1 & 3. The combination of 1 & 3 would remain neutral to the Il house. Saturn is in the sub of Jupiter, the sublord of houses 5 & 11. Houses 5 & 11 would uphold the neutrality of the VIII house.

Principles of linkage of the VIII house on the II house are:

2,1: Expenditures for unexpected self needs 2,2: Unexpected profits 2,3: Unexpected improvements of income 2,4: Unexpected acquisition of properties 2,5: Unexpected gamblings 2,6: Unexpected borrowings 2,7: Sudden marriage, accidents to L/B partners 2,8: Unexpected outstandings of money 2,9: Unexpected financial worries 2,10: Sudden professional gains 2,11: Immense flow of money as unexpected gains

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 148

2,12: Unexpected investments or expenditures

Receipt of donations, compliments, gifts, insurance claims etc are possible by Saturn, the 8th sublord, as it carries 1, 3, 5 & 11, during its DBA periods, while it happens to transit in the star of Mercury, the II sublord.

Il on VIII:

General principles of linkage of the II house with the VIII house are:

8,1 Gains from insurance claims 8,2 Bribes or unexpected income 8,3 Unexpected gains in documentation and through cheques 8,4: Insurance claims in accidents

8,5: Unexpected income through commissions 8,6: Unexpected loans 8,7: Insurance claims of L/BP

8,8: Unexpected collection of outstandings 8,9: Unexpected gains in ancestral properties 8,10: Accepting bribes in profession 8,11: Unexpected financial assistance, gifts or donations 8,12: Unexpected capital gains

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 149 With 12 & 7 in its bag, the II sublord would force the native to recommend someone to a lender in raising loans. That someone would fail to repay the loan and in fine, the native would be forced to exchange words with the lender.

IX on II:

IX is a house of danger to the II house. In this chart, 9th sublord Moon transits in Sun star, the 6th sublord (5 to 2) and in the sub of Rahu, the 7th sublord (2 to 6). Linkage of 9 to 6 (5 to 2) & 7 (Neutral to 6) would thus mean gains to the II house.

Principles of linkage of the IX house on the II house are:

2,1: Expenditures on illegal affairs 2,2: Profits from ancestral properties 2,3: Improvement in financial status through father 2,4: Money and properties from ancestral sources 2,5: Profits from ancestral trusts 2,6: Appointment on compassionate grounds or on the basis of heirship 2,7: Foreign exchange with the assistance

of others 2,8: Income through the insurance claims of father 2,9: Financial crisis by the debts of father 2,10: Income from the profession as suited to educational qualifications 2,11: Immense growth of financial status through ancestral sources 2,12: Expenditures incurred on ancestral properties

9th, the house of father and strangers, would give some relief to the native. 9th is also a house of research. In this example chart, it would render such benefits during the Moon DBA periods, while it transits in the star of Mercury.

Il on IX:

General principles of linkage of the IX house, to the II house are:

9,1: Monetary gains through credibility, integrity and status 9,2: Gains through father and strangers 9,3: Gains through agreements and negotiations

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 151

9,4: Monetary benefits through higher education 9,5: Monetary gains through supernatural forces 9,6: Income, by getting appointed in the same job of the father 9,7: Gains through second marriage 9,8: Monetary benefits from the insurance claims of the father 9,9: Earnings in researches, royalties 9,10: Income through foreign assignments or in a honorary post 9,11: Financial gains through success in research works 9,12: Profits through international contacts

With 12 & 7 in its bag, the II house, a neutral house to the 9th house, during the DBA periods of Mercury while it transits in the star of Moon, would enable the native to invest money in properties, that are unworthy for due returns.

X on lI:

X house as it is 9th to the II house, is a naturally favourable house to the II house. The 10th sublord Mercury is in the star of Venus, the 12th sublord and in the sub of Rahu, the

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 152 7th sublord. By negating the 12th house significations, the 7th house would operate on the 10th sublord to become unfavourable to the Il house. Thus a natural ally would transform into a silent and neutral spectator here.

Principles of linkage of the X house on the house are:

2,1: Personal enjoyment from entire earnings 2,2: Saving the income 2,3: Improving the financial conditions through income 2,4: Converting the income into properties 2,5: Gamblings and speculations with the income 2,6: Preserving the income for legal heirs 2,7: Saving the income at the hands of others 2,8: Income that remain as outstanding 2,9: Financial hurdles and crisis due to profession 2,10: Reinvestments of the income in the same profession 2,11: Immense earnings and preserving the same as savings 2,12: Reinvesting the income in different professions

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 153 In the example, there lies no scope for gains or developments in profession, during the DBA periods of Mercury, while it transits in its own star. Il on X:

General principles of linkage of the II house with the X house are:

10,1: Financial gains with status and respect through profession 10,2: Permanent income through profession (salary) 10,3: Gains in money exchanges of the profession (TA Claims) 10,4: Profits in the profession of LVHP (HRA & CCA) 10,5: Encashment of commutted medical leave and earned leave 10,6: Gains in promotions, increments, additional remunerations 10,7: Income through self ventures 10,8: Accepting bribes, pending arrears being paid 10,9: Gratuity and pension benefits subsequent to retirement 10,10: Gains for holding honorary posts

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 154

10,11: Income through professional developments 10,12: Materialistic gains in second profession

With 12 & 7 in its bag, the II house, a favourable house to the 10th house, during the DBA periods of Mercury while it transits in its own star, with the profits from the first profession, the native would lead to initiate a second profession but only to increase the borrowings and subsequently to end in aborting the new attempts midway.

XI on II:

XI is a neutral house to the II house. The 11th sublord Jupiter is in the star & sub of Mercury, the sublord of houses 2, 4 & 10 or 1, 3 & 9 to the II house. Thus a neutral house becomes a favourable house.

Principles of linkage of the XI house on the II house are:

2,1: Reduction in savings to fulfil self needs 2,2: Multiple savings to fulfil materialistic desires 2,3: Small savings, as desired 2,4: Conversion of savings as properties, as

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 155

desired 2,5: Conversion of savings as artistically valuable goods, as desired 2,6 Borrowings from the person of native's choice 2,7 Borrowings with the assistance of others as desired 2,8: Receipt of donations as desired 2,9: Giving gifts as desired 2,10: Profession in Jewellery shops or in finance companies as desired 2,11: Income through multiple sources as desired 2,12: Investments or expenditures as desired

The XI house in this chart is highly favourable to the II house and thus opening up the gates of gains through friends and elder brothers. The link of the 11th sublord to 2, 4 & 10 would give financial satisfaction, fulfilment of desires and marginal success in professional life during its DBA periods of Jupiter, while it transits in the star of Mercury.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 156 Il on XI:

General principles of linkage of the II house, to the XI house are:

11,1: Benefits through self efforts and status 11,2: Immense growth of wealth 11,3: Gains, as planned in negotiations and by way of agreements 11,4: Profits from the properties with litigations 11,5: Monetary benefits in festivals and occassions 11,6: Success in financial litigations 11,7: Financial assistance from friends 11,8: Unexpected gains from the friends 11,9: Gains out of long journeys, and through foreigners 11,10: Expected gains in profession 11,11: Profits and gains to the optimum level of desires 11,12: Gains as expected through investments

With 12 & 7 in its bag, the Il house, a neutral house to the 11th house, during the DBA periods of Mercury while it transits in the star of Jupiter, would lead to loss or theft of large amount of money that was earned and kept secretly.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 157 XII on II:

12th is a favourable house to the Il house. The 12th sublord Venus is in Moon star, the 9th sublord and in its own sub. Though the linkage to the 9th house would not favour the II house, connection to the 12th house would nullify the same and would render a bit of relief to the native.

Principles of linkage of the XII house on the Il house are:

2,1: Liquidation of investments for self needs 2,2: Repayment of outstanding money that was lent 2,3: Improvement in financial conditions through deposits 2,4: Investments in LVHP 2,5: Liquidating the investments for gambling needs 2,6: Borrowings for want of excessive investments 2,7: Profits in investments with the assistance of others 2,8: Outstanding capital 2,9: Financial crisis caused by excessive investments

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 158 2,10: Liquidating the assets for professional needs 2,11: Immense profits in investments 2,12: Reinvestments by liquidating the investments

In the example chart, it is 9 & 12 on the II house to mean that the second profession would render gains to the client during Venus DBA pe- riods, when it happens to transit in the star of Mercury. Il on XII:

General principles of linkage of the II house with the XII house are:

12,1: Liquidating capital through self efforts 12,2: Liquidating the capital or outstanding money 12,3: Getting back the things that were lost 12,4: Due returns from investments made in LVHP 12,5: Commission to capitals 12,6: Borrowings on capitals 12,7: Getting back the capital with the help of others 12,8: Unexpected gains through investments

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 159 12,9: Winning back the properties that were seized 12,10: Gains through reinvestments in the profession 12,11: Immense growth of capital 12,12: Return of savings and thrift

With 12 & 7 in its bag, the II house, a neutral house to the 12th house, during the DBA periods of Mercury while it transits in the star of Venus, would lead xo loss of money, that was secretly invested, after being cheated by someone.

Readers are requested to keenly note that the study of the II bhava/ house have been so far explained with the use of the karaka of money or finance alone, selected from the bundle of more than a few hundred karakas of the II house.The remaining karakas can also be studied in the same manner as explained above.

PLANETS & II

SUN: The karaka planet for father and government.

Sun resides in Venus star(12) and Jupiter sub (5 & 11). It is an unfavourable linkage to the

"Applications of Cuspal interlinks" 160 Il house.

Hence the native could not expect loans from father or through employment from the government.

MOO: The karaka planet for mother & maternal sources.

Moon transits in Sun star (6) and in Rahu sub (7). Hence gains are possible through mother and maternal sources, but only during the DBA periods of Moon.

MAR: The karaka planet for brothers and machineries.

Mars transits in Sun star (6) and in Rahu sub (7). Hence gains are possible through brothers and machineries, only during the DBA periods of Mars.

MER: Karaka for sensitive instruments.

Mercury is in Venus star (12) and in the sub of Rahu (7). Hurdles and losses are the results.

JUP: Karaka for education.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 161 Jupiter transits in Mercury star & sub, the sublord of 2, 4 & 10. The native can gain through teaching, though he had very limited scope for his own education.

VEN: Karaka for opposite sex and agriculture.

Venus is in Moon star (9) and in its own sub (12). The native cannot dream of making gains from sources of ladies and agricultural yields.

SAT: Karate: planet for old and used goods.

Saturn transits in Mars star, the sublord of 1 & 3, and Jupiter sub, the sublords of 5 & 11. This link of 1, 3, 5 & 11 would lead to favourable gains from such goods.

More on identifying the sources of finance:

Imagine that a person wants to construct a house. It is nothing but conversion of money into properties. That means, the II sublord must maintain a linkage either in the natal chart or in the transit to ensure flow of money, that is required to carry on with the above-said construction. Now the process of accumulation of money for the construction of house gets

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 162

started. The native may use part of his own savings. He may raise a housing loan from a finance company or a bank. He may divert a small portion of capital from his profession. He may get short-term loans from his parents, in-laws, relatives and friends. He may raise money either by mortgaging the jewels of his wife or by selling part of his own lands etc.,

Thus, in the process of constructing a house, within a span of about 4-8 months, all the sources are being utilized by him. Hence, the financial sources of all the 12 houses are being tried, when their sublords happen to transit in the star of the II sublord as non-returnable money and when they get to transit in the star of the 6th sublord as loans. Thus every house, subject to its natal potential, at the time of transit of its sublord in the star of the II sublord, enables the native to tap its sources for money. In the general principles, we have studied only to use the combination of two cusps, i.e., 1 & 2, 1 & 3 etc., But let us bear in our minds that the cuspal combinations are unimaginably numerous, such as

i) 2, 3, 4 ... ... 2, 3 & 12 .. .upto 2, 11 & 12 ii) 2,3,4&5 ...... 2, 3, 4 & 12 ....... upto 2, 10,11 & 12 XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX iii) to viii) ix) 2, 3,4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 & 12

In the same manner, every time when we exclude a house, we are able to get a new and different set of combinations. Thus we can derive over 39,916,800 cuspal combinations to solve the riddles of our materialistic life. I know that my lifetime is too small to detail and list these significations of each and every one of the above such combinations. Every one of these 40 million cuspal combinations is different from others; combination of 1 & 3 does not mean as a mechanical addition of karakas of 1 & 3; instead, the combination explicitly shows about an unique combination of courageous character. Thus we have to be objective in identifying the true nature of every other combination.

Added to the above, we have the significations of "SIGNS" of Zodiac {Principles of Kalachakra} and the "PLANETS". Please refer

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 165

the previous chapter on the Ascendant wherein the relevant Planetary Significations have been provided as examples. The permutations and combinations of cuspal interlinks to the significations of each and every planet, would render more and more options. Thereby conclude that only a small fraction of these options are sufficient to identify the unique financial cycle of each one of us. Hence, Dear readers! Best of luck in trying these combinations in making predicitions. Shall we move on to the III house now?

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 166 III HOUSE HOUSE OF COMMUNICATION

In this chapter, we are going to study the link of the III house with and by the remaining cusps in analyzing a chart. As you know, the III house is the house of significations for Communications, Writings, Documents and agreements, Accounting, All kinds of informations, Signs, Mediator, Negotiator, Lease, Business and Commercial activities etc.

Nature of the III house :.

It is favourable to the houses : 1, 3, 5, 7 & 11

Unfavourable to the houses : 4, 8, 9 & 12.

Neutral to the houses : 2, 6 & 10

Ascon III- Short journeys, information & communications Il on IlI-Conversion of savings as negotiable instruments III on III- Courage, self confidence, agreement and lease IV on III-Loss of properties, change of residence, V on III- Agreement to commissions, love

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 167

letters, innovations, deep thoughts. VI on IlI-Loans through agreements, appointment orders, success in negotiations or litigations. VII on IIl- Information from wife, partners. Leaving the native place. VIII on III- Insurance Agreement, Will or Charter, mental worries caused due to change of residence etc., IX on llI-Agreement in writing, end of information or journey. X on III- Transfer of job, agreements in business. XI on III-Happy news and mental satisfaction. XII on III- Loss of properties, share certificates etc.,

The above could happen, if the sublords of the concerned cusps reside in anyone of the stars or the subs of the sublord of the III cusp. The readers might have noticed that whenever an odd house joins hands with the III house, it improves the favourable scope of their common signification; It is the reverse in the case of linkage by an even house. Ill house is a member of "Odd Houses" or a house of spiritual cycle. When it conjoins with the 12th

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 168 house, jointly stand for negating the materialistic scopes.

3 & 12 jointly with 2 would stand for sale of gold 3&12 jointly with 4 would signify sale of properties. 3 & 12 jointly with 6 would denote loss of labour and mortgages. 3 & 12 jointly with 8 would denote mental agony on losses. 3 & 12 jointly with 10 would denote transfer of job.

Ill house is also a house of negotiations on sales, accounts & losses.

Houses 1, 3, 5, 7 & 11 would be favourable to the III house, while houses 2, 6, 9 & 10 would be unfavourable to the III and 4, 8 &12 would stand neutral to the III house. These favours or misfortunes could be possible depending upon the residence of the sublord of the third cusp in the star or the sub of the relevant houses. In return, the III house would register its mark on the cusps to which it gets linked.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 169 on Asc: Courage of the native on Il: Enhancement of profits through agreements on III: Improves the trend of negotiations on IV: Return journey, return of goods or properties on V: Mutual satisfaction in negotiations on VI: Small loans. on VII: Contacts with opposite sex on VIII: Forgery and false propaganda on IX: Filing of tender documents on X: Change in the nature of job on XI: Satisfactory agreements on XII: Breach of agreements or misplacing valuables.

POTENTIAL of the III house.

In every horoscope, it is possible that the sublord of a particular house may also appear as sublord to anyone or more houses. Here in this example chart, Mars is the sublord for both the Ascendant and for the III house.

i) Mars is the sublord of the III house and it resides in the star of Sun, the 6th sublord, and in the sub of Rahu, the 7th sublord.

*Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 170 III house is unfavourably connected to the VI, as it becomes 4th to the III house. This unfavourable connection is upheld by Rahu, the 7th sublord and the sublord of the sublord of the Ill house. Hence potentially the III house is very weak in this chart.

ii-b) Ketu, (Neither starlord nor sublord to anyone of the 12 cusps) is in the sub of Mars. Hence, we opt for the residence of Ketu, i.e., the II house. Linkage of II on 3 would enable the native to convert his savings as negotiable instruments. ASC on I

Asc is a naturally favourable house to the Ill house. Mars, the sublord of the Asc, as it resides in the star of Sun, the 6th sublord and in the sub of Rahu, the 7th sublord, always carries 6 & 7 with it to react on the other 11 houses. Houses 6 & 7 would become houses 4 & 5 to the III house to disable the Asc to retain its nature of favour to the III house.

The principles of linkage of the Asc on the III house are as follows:

3,1 Courage and mental strength 3,2 Greed for money 3,3 Versatile in writing, good memory power

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 171 3,4: Inclination towards education 3,5: Deep thoughts and wisdom 3,6: ENT problems, courageous person, sports personality 3,7: Sociable with very good public relations 3,8: Mentally retarded, fearful, coward 3,9: Fond of travels, research mind 3,10: Publicity in professional life 3,11: Bold and courageous 3,12: Inability to reside in the native place

In this example chart, as the Asc is carrying 6 & 7 with it or to say 4 & 5 to the III house, during the DBA periods of Mars, while it transits in its own star, as its reaction on the III house as sublord of Asc, would negate the inclination towards education and gaining knowledge and would disable the native from cordial communications.

Ill on ASC:

The principles of linkage of the III house with the Asc are as follows:

1,1 Short journeys, transfers, mental strength 1,2 Statements 1,3 Courageous mind

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 172 1,4 : Loss of interest in education 1,5 : Love letters, poems 1,6: ENT problems, loss of energy, diseases 1,7: Communication and exchanges of informations with opposite sex 1,8: Mental depression, charge-sheet, rumours, tremblings as a symptom of neuro-disorders 1,9 : International relations, visa & tenders 1,10: Transfer of job, job satisfactions 1,11: Name and fame in negotiations and communications 1,12: Secret research, loss of organs in the body

IlI house, with 6 & 7 in its bag, or to say, 3, 6 & 7, the specific combination of the III house in this chart, while to act on the Asc, at the periods of DBAS of Mars, when it transits in its own stars, would enable the native to gain success in negotiations.

II o n III:

Il house, by nature, is a house of negation to the III.

Il sublord Mercury is in Venus star & Rahu sub, thus linked to houses 12 & 7. Houese 12 &

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 173 7 would become houses 10 & 5 to the III house. Thus the II house would get modified as a neutral house to the III house in this chart.

The principles of linkage of the II house with the III house are as follows:

3,1: Disposal of valuables for self needs 3,2: Return of valuables mortgaged 3,3: Giving the valuables temporarily to the use of others 3,4: Conversion of money into properties 3,5: Conversion of money into share certificates 3,6: Frequent mortgage of valuables 3,7: Separation of one of the family members 3,8: Threatened by the financial strength of the opponent 3,9: Issuance of cheques and subsequent reduction of savings 3,10: Transfer through financial means, TA claims 3,11: Financial agreements 3,12: Sale of gold and other valuables

Il as it carries 12 & 7 or to say 10 & 5 to the III house in this example chart, during the

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 174 DBA periods of Mercury, the II sublord, while it is also in transit of the star of Mars, the III sublord, would force the native to sell valuable articles and would enable the native to get needed assistance from others in the form of cheques or demand drafts. IIl on II

The principles of linkage of the house with the II house are as follows:

2,1 : Converting savings as Negotiable Instruments (NI) for personal reasons 2,2 : Liquidating NI for re-investment in the same 2,3 : Improvements in the financial position through NI 2,4 : Mortgage of valuables and properties 2,5 : Broker and commission agent 2,6 : Raising loans through NI 2,7 : Financial assistance from others by way of cheques 2,8 : Missing cheques and disappointments 2,9 : Negotiations and talks to avert financial crisis 2,10: Financial benefits through transfers 2,11: Savings as NI to the satisfaction of

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 175

desires 2,12: Documentation of valuable investments

IlI house with 6 & 7 in its bag, or to say, 3, 6 & 7, while to act on the II house, during the DBA periods of Mars, the IlI sublord, while it is also in transit of the star of Mercury, the II sublord, would bring profits through negotiations for the native. IIl on lII:

Ill when in company with 3 or 6 or 11 would give success.

IlI when in company with 5 or 8 or 12 would give failures.

Or in other words, it becomes obligatory for the sublord of the III house to be

i) in its own star or sub to render success.

ii) or to remain in the star or sub of sublords of 6 & 11 for success.

IIl is a favourable house to itself. Since it is connected primarily with the 6th house, would give success to the native through contracts and agreements. This could be posssible during the DBA periods of Mars, while it is also in transit in

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 176

its own star.

The principles of linkage of the III house to itself are as follows:

3,1 Self advertisements 3,2 Profits through cheques or documents 3,3 Signatures, Information and communication 3,4 Agreements to sell LVHP 3,5 Knowledge and wisdom in the fields of AC 3,6 Agreements to raise loans 3,7 Incidental meetings and contacts, passing on the information 3,8 : Accounting faults 3,9: Telegraphs and tele-communications, journeys 3,10: Transfers and business agreements 3,11: Winning tenders and contracts 3,12: Loss of properties

i) As a house of signatures of the native or means of sureity, the III house when connected to 5, 8 & 12 would lead to loss of money; 4, 8 & 12 would lead to seizure of properties; 1,5 & 8 would spoil his reputation. In this example, no such adverse linkage is found.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 177 ii) If the III house, a house of publicity, is linked with 9 & 11, then the native would be a publicity-monger. If the ill house is connected to the 8th, then one would spoil his own reputation, losing his name and fame. Here in this example, no such linkage is found.

Note: If we go on discussing about the links that are not found in this horoscope, I am afraid that it would deviate us from the main purpose of this book.

IV on III:

IV is a neutral house to the IlI house. IV sublord Mercury is in Venus star(12) and in Rahu sub(7). Houses 12 & 7 would become houses 10 & 5 to the III house. Thus the IV house would remain as a neutral house to the III house.

The principles of linkage of the IV house on the III house are as follows:

3,1 Leaving the native place 3,2 Liquidation of properties 3,3 Mortgaging the properties 3,4 Re-mortgaging the properties 3,5 Re-modification of properties 3,6 Purchase of new properties after the sale

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 178 of old ones 3,7: Departure of guests and relatives 3,8: Forgery in documents of properties 3,9: Mutual exchange of properties 3,10: Residing in other's house by leaving his own residence 3,11: Litigations on properties 3,12: Sale of properties

In this example chart, during the DBA periods of Mercury, {carrier of 12 & 7 with it always} the sublord of the IV house, while it transits in the star of Mars, the III sublord, would bring down the efforts on negotiations regarding properties to end in vain.

Ill on IV:

The principles of linkage of the house with the IV house are as follows:

4,1: Leaving the residence 4,2: Conversion of properties into gold and valuables 4,3 Sale of properties 4,4 Regaining the properties that were lost 4,5 Repairs or modifications of properties

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 179 4,6: Change of educational institution, purchase of properties by selling own properties 4,7: Living at the residence of the spouse 4,8: Repairs or damages in belongings, repairs in wirings & pipe lines 4,9: Acquiring properties through mortgage 4,10: Sale of manufactured goods 4,11: Litigations on properties 4,12: Sale of documents

Ill house, with 6 & 7 in its bag, or to say, 3, 6 & 7, while to act on the IV house, during the DBA periods of Mars at the time when Mars is also in transit in the star of Mercury, the 4th sublord, would lead to failures of negotiations, as the other party would disagree to the demands of the native. V on III:

V is a naturally favourable house to the III. Through its significations like interest in sports and competitions, the 5th house is to stand favourable to the III. In this example chart, the 5th sublord Jupiter is in the star and sub of Mercury (2, 4 & 10) {12, 2 & 8 to the III} to become unfavourable to the III house.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 180 The principles of linkage of the V house with the III house are as follows:

3,1 Deep thoughts and versatile knowledge 3,2: Lottery gains 3,3: Artistic excellence 3,4: Education in artistic fields 3,5: Writings of stories and articles 3,6: Loss of energy subsequent to viral diseases 3,7: Love affairs 3,8: Disrespects, anonymous letters 3,9: Advertisements 3,10: Detained to the previous state in profession, problems by changing the place of business 3,11: Peaceful settlements in negotiations 3,12: Seller of artisitic goods

In this chart, since the 5th sublord Jupiter is linked to houses 2, 4 & 10 or to say houses 12, 2 & 8 to the III house, would bring failures to the native in competitive examinations during its DBA periods, while it is also in transit of the star of Mars, the III sublord.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 181 Ill on V:

The principles of linkage of the III house with the V house are as follows:

5,1: Excellence in arts and culture 5,2: Profiting through commissions, brokerage and agencies 5,3: Wisdom and thoughts 5,4: Seller and producer of artistic goods 5,5: Excellent memory power, spiritual servant 5,6: Loss of physical energy due to diseases in the blood cells 5,7: Love marriage with a neighbour 5,8: Mental depresssions due to disrespects in the fields of SG & AC 5,9: Pilgrimage to holy places 5,10: Professional seller of books and artistic goods 5,11: Intelligence and sound health 5,12: Seller of artistic equipments and supplements

IlI house, with 6 & 7 in its bag, or to say, 11, 2 & 3, while to act on the V house, at the periods of DBAS of Mars also when Mars is in transit of the star of Jupiter, the 5th sublord, would

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 182 enable the native to satisfy other parties during negotiations. VI on III:

VI is a naturally unfavourable house to the III house. But in this example, the 6th sublord Sun, by being in the star of Venus (12), (10th to the III) and in the sub of Jupiter (5 & 11), { 3 & 9 to the III house}, stands favourable to the matters of the III house.

The principles of linkage of the VI house with the III house are as follows:

3,1: Courageous and bold efforts 3,2: Receipt of loans as cheques 3,3: Agreements for borrowings 3,4: Oppositions and motives in service 3,5: Voluntary retirements 3,6: Change of residence for service requirements 3,7: Incentives and increments in service 3,8: Increase in workloads 3,9: Change in service 3,10: Transfer in service 3,11: Successful service 3,12: Service in commercial institutions and business establishments

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 183 During the DBA periods of Sun, the 6th sublord, the person would face difficulties in raising loans, as assured to him. Since it is 5, 11 & 12 in the example case, the 6th house would lose its strength to deny energy of the native and thus, the native would be able to maintain his health during the DBA periods of Sun, the 6th sublord, while it transits in the star of Mars, the III sublord. III on VI:

The principles of linkage of the III house with the VI house are as follows:

6,1: Litigations involving the prestige of the native 6,2: Litigations regarding financial matters 6,3: Litigations regarding the pathways or platforms 6,4: Litigations on properties 6,5: Litigations in service 6,6: Litigations regarding loans 6,7: Litigations motivated by the opponents 6,8: Litigations regarding criminal activities 6,9: Litigations on ancestral or temple properties 6,10: Litigations regarding promotions in profession

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 184

6,11: Litigations on the tenants 6,12: Litigations due to the secret activities like Income tax raids etc

IlI house, with 6 & 7 in its bag, or to say, 3, 6 & 7, while to act on the VI house, during the periods of Mars, when it gets to transit in the star of Sun, the VI sublord, would enable the native to sign promissory notes for getting additional loans and would enable him to gain success in negotiations etc

VII on llI:

VII house is a beneficial house (5th to the III) to the IlI house. But in this chart, the 7th sublord Rahu is in its own star and in the sub of Sun, the 6th sublord. Hence, whenever the 7th house is referred, it automatically refers the 7th (5th to the III) & the 6th (4th to the III) houses also. Thus, it ends as a neutral house to the III house matters.

The principles of linkage of the VII house with the III house are as follows:

3,1 Talks with opponents 3,2 Breaks in long journeys of L/B partners 3,3 Long journeys or separations of L/B

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 185

partners 3,4: Change of profession by L/B partners 3,5: Cordial relationships and understanding with L/B partners 3,6: Divorce cases and notices 3,7: Illegal affairs of L/B partners 3,8: Threatenings by opponents 3,9 Agreements and information from opponents 3,10: Separation from joint family 3,11: Cordiality with L/B partners 3,12: Separation of L/B partners

Since it is 7 & 6 in this example chart, temporary separation does arise during the DBA periods of Rahu, {the 7th sublord}, while it gets to transit in the star of Mars.

In this example, the 7th house is 7 & 6. Hence profitable but with a very few direct contacts, is the only possiblity for financial assitance by the opposite sex, during the AS periods of Rahu, while it is also in transit in the star of Mars. III on VII:

The principles of linkage of the III house with the VII house are as follows:

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 186 7,1: Marriage brokers, maistry who selects daily labourers 7,2: Broker to arrange for getting financial assistance 7,3: Reporter, news correspondent, journalist 7,4: House brokers, industrial agency. brokers for machineries 7,5: Registrar of marriages, pimp, festival organizers 7,6: Registrar of litigations, adviser, bill collectors S 7,7: Advertising agencies, information and communication agencies 7,8: Mortuary servants, charge-sheet recording assistants, CID personnel 7,9: Microphones, telegraphs, tele communications 7,10: Self-enterprise, partnership firms, communication gaps with partners 7,11: Satisfactory married life, Announcers 7,12: Rehabilitation centres, international contacts

IlI house, with 6 & 7 in its bag, or to say, 3, 6 & 7, while to act on the VII house, during the periods of Mars when it transits in the star of

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 187 Rahu, the VII sublord, would stand as a favourable period to initiate communications for assistance or legal proceedings against opponents for gains.

VIII on III:

VIII is a neutral house to the III. In this example chart, the sublord of the 8th house i.e., Saturn, is in the star of Mars, sublord of houses 1 & 3 and in the sub of Jupiter, the sublord of houses 5 & 11. Hence, whenever the impacts of the 8th house are under study, it becomes 8, 1, 3, 5 & 11 {6, 11, 1, 3 & 9 to the III house}. A house of materialistic cycle, when linked to houses of. spiritual cycle, would lead to troubles in spiritual/family life.

The principles of linkage of the VIII house with the III house are as follows:

3,1 Blind but bold 3,2 Mental depression 3,3 Unexpected information 3,4 Unexpected end of journeys 3,5 Unexpected love letters 3,6 Unexpected mental diseases/disorders 3,7 Unexpected marriage engagement 3,8 Receipt of bad news

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 188

3,9: Unexpected journeys 3,10: Unexpected transfers 3,11: Unexpected agreements 3,12: Unexpected loss of belongings

In this example case, 8th is 1, 3, 5 &11, the houses of favour to the III house. This combination would bring legal rights but not the properties or valuables during the periods of Saturn while it is also in transit of the star of Mars, the III sublord. In the given example, the 8th sublord is linked to houses 1, 3, 5 & 11, in such a way to enable all the members of his family, to receive insurance claims after the death of the native, during the DB periods of Saturn, while it transits in the star of Mars, the III sublord.

IlI on VIII:

The principles of linkage of the III house with the VIII house are as follows:

8,1: Sudden death, mental depression, neuro problems 8,2: Unexpected receipt of donations or gifts 8,3: Fear of death, mental depression 8,4: Sudden failure of organs of the body 8,5' Unexpected love affairs

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 189

8,6: Mental disorders, borrowings against surety 8,7: Unexpected communications through strangers 8,8: Heart attack or cruel death 8,9: Unexpected agreements and communications 8,10: Transfer to a job with heavy workload 8,11: Unexpected happy news 8,12: Unexpected losses or amputation of organs

Ill house, with 6 & 7 in its bag, or to say, 3, 6 & 7, while to act on the VIII house, during the periods of Mars when it transits in the star of Saturn, the VIII sublord, would cause troubles to the native by way of documents and also by having given surety to others.

IX on III:

IX house is an unfavourable house'to the III. In this chart, the IX sublord is Moon and it is in the star of Sun and in the sub of Rahu. Sun is the 6th sublord and Rahu is the 7th sublord. Hence whenever we study the 9th house, it is 9, 6 & 7 or { 7, 4 & 5 to the III} which confirms the unfavourable scope as far as the III

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 190 house is concerned.

The principles of linkages of the IX house with the III house are as follows:

3,1 Receipt of visa 3,2 Breach of agreements 3,3 Agreements 3,4 Litigations in agreements 3,5 Romance or love with a person of different language 3,6 Cases filed by the opponents- 3,7 Negotiations for II marriage 3,8 Mental agony caused by illegal affairs 3,9 Receipt of communications 3,10 Relieving order 3,11: Successful negotiations 3,12 Change of trend in negotiations

Here in the given example, the 9th house is linked with 6 & 7. So the native would not be a honest negotiator, and the native can win a tender and avail a needed work order during the DBA periods of Moon, while it transits in the star of Mars, the III sublord.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 191 IlI on IX:

The principles of linkage of the III house with the IX house are as follows:

9,1: International agreements, passports, transfer orders 9,2: Scholarships, ancestral documents 9,3: Communications and agreements initiated by the other parties 9,4: Changes subsequent to higher education, transport and teaching 9,5: Priests, religious sentiments, sexual pleasures with lover 9,6: Loss of energy subsequent to changes in body, erosion of bones etc., 9,7: Practical training subsequent to education 9,8: Breaks in higher education or in foreign journeys 9,9: Winning tenders, agreements, negotiations 9,10: Profession as suited to education, transfer orders 9,11: Polygamy, success in higher education and agreements 9,12: Imports and Exports, foreign journeys,

Ill house, with 6 & 7 in its bag, or to say, 3, 6 & 7, while to act on the IX house, during the periods of Mars when it transits in the star of Moon, the IX sublord, would enable the native to receive profitable communications for needed assistance. X on lII:

X house is a house of danger to the III house. {8th to the III}. By linking with the III, the 10th house would somehow get into troubles. Mercury, the sublord of the 10th house is in the star of Venus, the sublord of the 12th house and in the sub of Rahu, the sublord of the 7th house. Hence, whenever 10 is studied, it becomes 10,12 & 7, or 8,10 & 5 to the III, not a favourable link to the III house at all.

The principles of linkage of the X house with the III house are as follows:

3,1 Job satisfaction 3,2 Satisfaction with income 3,3 Frequent transfers of job 3,4 Instigated transfers 3,5 Difficulties in getting transfers 3,6 Transfer with promotion

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 193

3,7: Recommendations for transfer 3,8: Punishment transfer 3,9: Suspension orders 3,10: Transfer 3,11: Reinstatement or cancellation of suspension 3,12: Transfer with change of nature in profession

In this example, the 10th sublord is linked with houses 12 & 7 which would enable the client only to change the profession but not the place of work. There would not be any chance for the native to initiate commercial ventures. The native would face difficulties by way of changes in the profession, during the DBA periods of Mercury, the10th sublord, while it transits in the star of Mars, the III sublord.

IlI on X:

The principles of linkage of the III house with the X house are as follows:

10,1 Usual transfers of higher posts 10,2 Hike in pay scales 10,3 Assistance from others in getting transferred

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 194 10,4: Seller of LVHP, machineries 10,5: Transfer due to hardships in profession 10,6: Transfer subsequent to promotions 10,7: Compulsory transfer 10,8: Punishment transfers, problems in personal records 10,9: Transfer but could not join in the new posting 10,10: Transfer of section or re-allocation of duties 10,11: Satisfactions through transfers or changes in job 10,12:Trader with two different types of professions

III house, with 6 & 7 in its bag, or to say, 3, 6 & 7, while to act on the X house, during the periods of Mars when it transits in the star of Mercury, the X sublord, would enable the native to proceed for profitable communications at the residence of the other party.

XI on III-

XI house is a favourable house to the III {9th to the III}. In this chart, the XI sublord is Jupiter which resides in the star and sub of

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 195

Mercury, the sublord of houses 2, 4 & 10. Hence whenever XI house is referred, it automatically stands as a combination of 11, 2, 4 & 10 or 9, 12, 2 & 8 to III. Thus it becomes an unfavourable house to the III house matters.

The principles of linkage of the XI house with the III house are as follows:

3,1 Satisfactory information 3,2 Discontinuity in information 3,3 Faults and repairs in communication equipments 3,4 Increasing satisfaction through additional information 3,5 Satisfactory agreements 3,6 Success in litigations 3,7 Pleasures out of planned meeting 3,8 Dissatisfactions of life 3,9 Successful trends in negotiations, communications and agreements 3,10: Transfers, as expected 3,11: Expected information 3,12: Sale in expected terms

In this example, XI house is linked with houses 2, 4 & 10. Hence, the native can never

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 196 reach an agreement with others during the DBA periods of Jupiter, while it transits in the star of Mars, the III sublord. Further, the DBA periods of Jupiter would disturb the harmony in romantic life. III on XI:

The principles of linkage of the III house with the XI house are as follows:

11,1: Fulfilment of desires through self efforts 11,2: Fulfillment of desires by improving the financial position 11,3: Man of self satisfactions 11,4: Litigations in properties 11,5: Sexual pleasures with whom the native is in love 11,6: Success in litigations as desired 11,7: Marriage with person of native's choice 11,8: Life full of struggles, litigations in properties 11,9: Agreements and negotiations, as desired 11,10: Transfer to the place of native's choice 11,11: Untiring efforts to acheive 11,12: Lending goods as per personal interests

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 197

5, 8 & 9, while to act on the XI house, during the periods of Mars when it transits in the star of Jupiter, the XI sublord, would enable the native to attain success through communications.

XII on III:

XII house is neutral to the III house. In this chart, the 12th sublord Venus is in the star of Moon, the 9th sublord and in its own sub; Hence, XII always carries 9 & 12 with it. It is 7 & 10 to the III house, which means that the 12th house has become unfavourable to the III house.

The principles of linkage of the XII house with the III house are as follows:

3,1: Return to the native place 3,2: Return of goods, which were lost 3,3: Return of documents, which were issued 3,4: Return of properties, which were mortgaged 3,5: Secret love letters 3,6: Secret legal proceedings 3,7: Secret letters or affairs of L/B partners 3,8: Secret threatenings and black-mails, secret confusions 3,9: Secret research, foreign journeys

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 198 3,10: Return to the same job or profession or to the same service 3,11: Relieved from the litigations of documents 3,12: Illegal resale of sold articles

In this example, the 12th house is 9 & 12. When it establishes a contact with the III house, it becomes 3, 9 & 12. This combination would indicate frequent journeys, failures in getting due returns on investments, difficulties in getting repayments of the loans, researches to reveal the secrets etc,.These could be experienced by the native during the DBA periods of Venus, while it transits in the star of Mars.

III on XII:

The principles of linkage of the III house with the XII house are as follows:

12,1: Leaving the native place due to subversive activities 12,2: Increase in the savings 12,3: Loss of secret articles 12,4: Sale of properties due to secret activities 12,5: Loss in secret love affairs 12,6: Amputation of an organ by way of diseases

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 199

12,7: Seizure of binami properties 12,8: Unexpected losses 12,9: Foreign journeys 12,10: Commercial business as II profession 12,11: Secret agreements 12,12: Loss of secretly preserved articles

IlI house, with 6 & 7 in its bag, or to say, 4, 7 & 8, while to act on the XII house, during the DBA periods of Mars when it transits in the star of Venus, the XII sublord, would enable the native to suffer from failures in his investments.

Conclusion:

Thus we have come to the end of our study of the III house and its actions and reactions on and from the remaining houses. As per the combinations, the results vary.

There may arise a doubt to some of the readers as to why we should study about the impact of the remaining houses on the III house, while the respective sublords do not maintain a direct linkage i.e., while they never reside in the star or sub of the III sublord in the natal chart. For example, in the given chart, as Saturn and Ketu are in the star and sub of Mars respectively, and Mars itself as the sublord of

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 200 the III house are the only direct indicators of the III house. But it confines the scope of communicating to sell something or the other, or reaching an agreement. Hence it means that the native is expected to wait till the BA periods of Saturn, Ketu or Mars. That also belittles the life of the native to receive the combined effects of 8 & 3 during the periods of Saturn and 2 & 3 during the periods of Ketu and 1 & 3 during the periods of Mars. Keeping one's life to such subjective and artificial limits would end as unscientific. What would be the role of the remaining 6 planets other than Saturn, Ketu & Mars as per the example chart, while they happen to transit in the star of Mars? {Rahu and Jupiter will transit in Mars star for a period of about four months} Isn't it a fact that they are also expected to do some favour or cause for damages to the III house ?

Here comes the significance of "CUSPAL INTERLINKS". We can derive the significations of every planet from the natal chart itself, by assessing their potential as how these planets would behave during their DBA periods and during their transit in the star of the sublord of a house.

As per the given example, the combined effects of Cuspal Interlinks of

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 201

SUN 6, 12, 5&11 -> on III MOO 9, 6 & 7 -> on III MAR 1, 3, 6 & 7 -> on III MER 2, 4, 10, 12 & 7 -> on III JUP 5, 11, 2, 4 & 10 -> on III VEN 12&9 -> on III SAT 8, 1, 3,5 & 11 ->on III RAH 8, 7 & 6 -> on III KET 2, 12, 1 &3 -> on III

could be experienced by the native during their respective DBA periods, while they transit in the star of Mars, the sublord of the III house. This is what the beauty and the essence of the "Principles of Cuspal Interlinks"

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 202

IV HOUSE HOUSE OF PROPERTIES

Lands, House or Dwelling Place, Vehicles, Rare articles, Agricultural Fields, Farms, Estates, Mines, Buildings, Ancestral properties, Treasures, Schools and Colleges, Boats, Oil wells, Wells, Bore wells, Tents, Ponds, Productions, Entrance of a House, Medicinal Plants etc are some of the significations of the 4th house that are unrelated to the Asc.

4th house, as it is 3, 1, 11, 9 & 5 to houses 2, 4, 6, 8 & 12 respectively, becomes favourable to these houses. 4th house would stand unfavourable to houses 1,5, 9 & 10 {4, 12, 8 & 7 to them}. It would stand neutral to houses 3, 7 & 11 {2,10 & 6}. While the sublords of the remaining cusps reside in the star or sub of the sublord of the 4th house, the results would depend on the nature of favour by the 4th house to them. As they happen to reside in the star or sub of the sublord of the 4th house, the said houses intend to register a mark of their reaction on the 4th house, which are as follows.

1 on IV: Graveyard, Residence, Education to handle machineries. Il on IV: Valuable goods, Bungalow

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 203

Ill on IV: Godown or Barter exchange IVon IV: Production, House, Vehicle, Primary Education, & Household appliances. V on IV: Casino, Banquet Halls VI on IV: Hotels, Hospitals, Rent, Loans, Manufacturing dresses, Readymades Vllon IV: The Tenant, Lease-holder of our properties, Seller. Villon IV: Properties through will or charter. IX on IV: Ancestral property, Church or Temple, Trust House, Mortgage, Trust agreements X on IV: Industry, Constructed House, Organisations. XI on IV: Marriage Halls, Lodges, Banquet Halls, Universities Xllon IV: Binami properties. Oil Wells, Wells, Treasures and Hide-outs.

Houses 2, 4, 6, 8 & 12 would become favourable houses to the IV house as they are 11, 1, 3, 5 & 9th to the IV house; Houses 7, 10, 11 & 3 are unfavourable houses to the IV house as they are 4, 7, 8 & 12th to the IV house. Houses 1, 5 & 9 are 10, 2 & 6 to the IV house to remain as neutral houses. Depending upon the residence of the sublord of the IV house in the

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 204

star or sub of the remaining cusps, the IV house gets modified. As the sublord of the IV house becomes a resident or carrier of the relevant cusps, by being in the star or the sub of the relevant houses would intend to register its reactions on the remaining houses, which are as follows:

IV on 1: Status through properties IV on 2: Income through properties IV on 3: Loss or sale of properties IV on 4: Doubling the properties IV on 5: Collection of rare paintings, Musical instruments etc IV on 6 Purchase of properties, Construction of 2nd storey etc IV on 7 Multiplying social relations IV on 8 Accident in Vehicles IV on 9 Acquiring House on Mortgage, Borrowed vehicle IVon 10 Industry IV on 11 Hurdles in constructions, Litigations in properties IV on 12 Investment in properties.

This is how the IV house acts on and gets reactions from the remaining 11 houses.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 205

POTENTIAL of the IV HOUSE:

Now let us presume the 4th house as the ascendant for studying the potential of the 4th house. In the given example, Mercury, the sublord of the 4th house is in the star of Venus, the sublord of the 12th house and is in the sub of Rahu, the sublord of the 7th house. 12th house is a favourable house to the 4th {9th to the 4th} but 7th house is an unfavourable house to the 4th; The star proposes and the sub disposes; Hence the potential of the 4th house is very weak in this chart.

As the readers are aware that every house is actually meant for the Asc or to say for prosperous living of the native. Here in this example, through its potential, the 4th house is not going to serve meaningfully for the purpose of the Ascendant as 12th & 7th are houses of worries to the Asc.

Jupiter, the sublord of the houses 5 & 11 is in the star and the sub of Mercury, the sublord of the 4th house. No other planet is directly connected to Mercury. The impact of houses 5 & 11 would remain permanent, such as the collection of artistically valued and rare articles, visit to temples and casinos, visit to lodges and participation in feasts and festivals etc.,

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 206

But, the remaining 10 houses would also act for the 4th house, through their respective sublords, during their DBA periods and at the time when they are also in transit of the star of Mercury. ASC on IV:

The sublord of the Ascendant, a naturally neutral house to the 4th house, is Mars which is in the star of Sun, the 6th sublord and in the sub of Rahu, the 7th sublord. Houses 6 & 7 become 3 & 4 to the 4th house, leading to an unfavourable link.

Some of the Hindu saints have identified their samadhis even within their life-times. A great scholar in Tamil, Shri Ki.Aa.Pe.Viswanathan, had purchased a farm and specified a place as graveyard for himself at the banks of the river Cauvery. This could be possible only when the Asc is linked with houses 4 & 7. Here in this chart, there is no such possibility as the Asc is linked only with houses 6 & 7.

General principles of linkage of the Asc with the IV house are as follows:

4,1 Landlord with Status 4,2 Landlord with good Monetary Income 4,3 Real Estates

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 207

4,4: Involvements in Agriculture 4,5: Poultry and Farms 4,6: Service in Industries 4,7: Self enterprise in Manufacturing Fields 4,8: Reproduction and Recycling Process 4,9: Teacher 4,10: Industrialist 4,11: Happy life with Income from Assets 4,12: Investments in Properties

In this example chart, since the Asc always carries 6 & 7 with it, it may enable the native, subsequent to hard labour and self efforts, to acquire lands, houses, vehicles or household appliances either through loans or through hire-purchases etc, eventhough potentially the native can never own a land for a long period of time in his personal name but during the DBA periods of Mars, while it also happens to transit in the star of Mercury.

IV on ASC:

General principles of linkage of the IV house with the Asc are as follows:

1,1: Status through Education and Properties 1,2: Income and Status through Properties

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 208

1,3: Publicity and Status through Properties 1,4: Status with Studies 1,5: Status through Education in the fields of Arts and Culture 1,6: Chemical Manufacturing 1,7 Public Relationships and Social Nature 1,8: Profession in Accident Insurance fields 1,9: Higher studies and Professor 1,10: Industrial Ownership 1,11: Status through Excellence in Education 1,12: Status through Research and Education

4th house as a naturally unfavourable house to the Asc, and a carrier of 12 & 7 with it, during the DBA periods Mercury, while Mercury transits in the star of Asc sublord Mars, would distract the inclination of the Asc from studies and would enable the native to dispose his properties. Il on IV:

The Il house is favourable to the IV house. Mercury, the II sublord is in the star of Venus, the sublord of the 12th house and in the sub of Rahu, the sublord of the 7th house. Houses 12 & 7 are not the favourable houses to the 4th house and thus making one of the favourable houses as idle and weak.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 209 General principles of linkage of the II house with the IV house are as follows:

4,1: Properties and Status through Income 4,2: Multiplication of Money and Properties through Income 4,3: Jewellery productions and sales 4,4: Manufactuing valuable products 4,5: Manufacturer of highly valuable and artistically excellent articles 4,6: Industrial Finance 4,7 Banker

4,8: Safety Lockers 4,9: Trustees 4,10: Jewels and Diamonds manufacturer 4,11: Investments on disputed properties 4,12: Investments through valuable articles

In this example chart, Il house has 12 & 7 with it; it would induce the native to purchase valuable articles and thus to indulge in extravagant expenditures during the DBA periods of Mercury, the II sublord, while it also transits in its own star.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 210 IV on II:

General principles of linkage of the IV house on the II house are as follows:

2,1 Enjoyment by liquidating ancestral properties 2,2 Profits in the filed of LVHP 2,3 Mortgaging the properties 2,4 Construction of a bungalow by utilizing his savings 2,5 Income through artistically valued goods 2,6 Borrowings in LVHP 2,7 Permanent residentship of relatives with the native 2,8: Unexpected gains in the field of LVHP 2,9: Financial troubles in the field of LVHP 2,10 Profession in the field of manufacturing 2,11 Profits in construction of bungalows 2,12 Investments in the field of LVHP

IV house as a naturally favourable house to the II house, and because being a carrier of 12 & 7 with it, during the DBA periods of its sublord Mercury, while Mercury transits in its own star, would drag the native to invest in properties and subsequently to suffer from losses.

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 211

IIII on IV:

Ill house is house of negation to the IV house. The sublord of the III house, Mars, is in the star of Sun, the sublord of the 6th house and in the sub of Rahu, the sublord of the 7th house. Hence the IIl house is connected to houses 6 & 7 or to say houses 3 & 4 to the 4th. The sub protects the favour of the star and finally dilutes the negative nature of the III house on the IV

General principles of linkage of the III house with the IV house are as follows:

4,1: Statusful broker 4,2: Profits in brokership businesses 4,3: Lessor, Building contractors 4,4: Brokers of Stock exchange 4,5: Hirer of artistically valued goods or Handicrafts 4,6: Change of Lease Agreements into Hire Agreements 4,7: Labour Contracts 4,8: Contracts in the field of Sanitation & Wastages 4,9: Winning tenders 4,10: Barter Exchange

"Applications of Cuspal Interlinks" 212

4,11: Manufacturing against orders 4,12: Broker for Industrial Investments

In this example chart, Mars, the III sublord is carrying 6 & 7 or to say 3 & 4 to the IV house and thus would enable the native to enter into agreements on purchase of properties during its DBA periods while it is also in transit of the star of Mercury, the IV sublord.
