Preface

The demand of the growing readership of astrologers all over the world is for critical and illustrated versions of books of astrology, particulary the classics and their translations. Those who have the ability to appraise critically some of the classical concepts should produce their researchers but not attempt translations unless their knowledge of Sanskrit is sound enough.

The real difficulty is with those who translate Sanskrit texts uncritically and do damage to the cause of astrology. It is left to great scholars like Dr. P.S. Sastry to show the way out of this tangle and he does it with commendable ease in many ways.

First he establishes clearly that the Kalidas of this book, Uttarkalamrita is different from the great Kalidas of the Shakuntalam fame. The present author was a south Indian who came after the sixteenth century.

In the chapter on longevity, Dr Sastry is harsh on the author and proves him wrong in many places but it is easily the most educative chapter in the book as it contains some apt illustrations. Using of navamsas might have been better in some places. The horary part is totally unillustrated but is sufficiently lucid and clear for other astrologers to try the unique methods given.

It is only Dr. Sastry who can say with confidence that child marriages etc had no social and scriptural sanction in Vedic times and interpolations in Smritis was done to justify some wrong social practices.

Scholarship of Sanskrit, of theoretical and practical aspects of astrology and the ability to produce a commentary with over one hundred illustrations can be done only by a master scholar of our times. Readers will benefit and feel grateful to Dr. Sastry for this work.

Introduction

Uttara Kalamrita is an important landmark in the history of Indian Astrology. The text was first printed in the Telugu script and it was attributed to Kalidasa. But he is not the celebrated author of Raghu Vansa, Kumara Sambhawa, Shakuntalam and other works. The reference to Andhra Bhasha (5.36), Urdu or Persian (5.53), Turushka (5.49), Sukkani (8.31), Rahu Kala (Second Kanda 29) and other things show that he came after the sixteenth century. His use of the words Udyoga (6.42) for job, mud-cleaning (Second Kanda 67-68), Smarta (Second Kanda 35), Nadi and Vinadi, Sarasa-sallapa (a peculliar Telugu expression, 5.43), Tyajya Kala (8.8) and others prove that he is a South Indian. His opposition to the marriage with the daughter of the maternal uncle (Second Kanda, 10-11), references to the usages in the South (12 in the Second) and the like prove that he belonged to the borders of Andhra, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu.

The Ratha Saptami day should have the Constellation Anuradha (Kanda 2.44) shows his bad acquaintance with astronomy. His views on the direction of the well (8.33), upanayana and other things contradict the earlier Kalamrita.

The third Chapter is a little unacceptable as it violates many accepted principles. There are many self-contradictory ideas. These views have been examined in our notes. At places the author appears to reject the authority of Manu and Apastamba. Some of the problems covered in the earlier Kalamrita appear in this work. Evidently this author did not write that Kalamrita. These and other factors convince us that the author belongs to a time after the 16th or the 17th century.

(v)

There is a Shankara Vijaya attributed to Madhava Vidyaranya. But the text clearly states that the author was condensing the work of Vyasachala (17th century) and that he was called Abhinava Kalidasa. Possibly the author of Uttarakalamrita is the same one or a person like him.

All this, however, does not belittle the value of the present work. Some of the salient features may be noted:

(1) He gives a method of finding the past, present and future births. This is different from the one given by Varahamihira and others.

(2) There are special kinds of Raja Yogas and their bhanga (destruction). Particular mention is to be made of Viparita Raja Yoga.

(3) The annual solar return chart is interpreted and examined in a manner that differs from the Tajika method. This is very original. It is simple and interesting.

(4) There is an elaborate account of Rahu and Ketu.

(5) The way of interpreting retrograde planets in their exaltation and debilitation is of much interest.

(6) The mutual periods of Shani and Shukra, Guru and Shukra and the like are of much value.

(7) Muhurta and nimitta discussed in the eighth chapter is worth studying.

(8) The first part of the second kanda deals with religious and other rites. This part we have separated into one chapter.

(9) Guru and Shani are taken as co-workers. Owning the last four signs these are the philosophical planets. Though they rule happiness and misery, they must have a benefic mutual relation.

(10) Jaimini's system of astrology is simplified.

(11) Horary astrology and the way of treating the lost or unknown dates of birth are explained. These are not simple copyings from earlier works.

Notes

Vikrama Surya can mean Vikramaditya. But when referring to a contemporary person, the ancients did not use synonyms. As in all auspicious functions so were the

hundred twenty degrees from the eleventh gives the third. From each of these houses, the opposite ones are 180 degrees away.

Before we illustrate this, a few observations are required. In the absence of watches and clocks, the ancients measured the time by the shadow of the Sanku in day time, and by the position of the star at midheaven in the night. This is no longer needed now because time-pieces are available; only the difference between the standard time and the local time has to be applied to the time of birth. This depends on the longitude of the place of birth.

Next he speaks of Drig-ganita. This is the observed position of the planets. Any modern ephemeris offers this. Only differences exist in the ayanamsa (precession of the equinoxes) followed. For all practical purposes, we may take the value as given by the Calendar Reform Committee.

Then the author refers to Nadis. This is a term popular in South India, particularly in Tamil Nadu and Kerala. The author evidently belongs to the South. Nadi is ghatika, and vinadi is vighatika. The day has sixty ghatikas. Each ghatika has 24 minutes; the Vighatika is equal to 24 seconds.

The distance between one bhava and the next is to be halved. This added to the longitude of the concerned bhava gives the point indicating where that Bhava ends.

For calculating the longitudes of lagna and the tenth house, it is better to follow the tables of houses. The best one is Raphael's Tables of Houses which give the sayana or tropical longitude. Deducting the ayanamsa from these we get the nirayana positions.

A lady was born on December 5, 1932 at one Ghatika and 51 Vighatikas after sun rise at 13°.41'N, and 80°.0'E. Sun Rise was at local time 6.13.6.

The Ghatikas and Vighatikas multiplied by two and divided by five give the local time of birth as 6.57.30 A.M. The difference from the standard time shows 7.07.30 A.M. (IST). Calculate the Sidereal time of birth on this basis since the tables of houses give the longitudes of lagna and the

tenth. Here the sidereal time comes to 11°.52'.5". The ayanamsa as per Lahiri's value is 22°.55'.22".

Raphael's Tables of Houses gives the tropical longitudes. We take only the degrees of the tenth and the first house. At 13° North we have the following:

Std. Time Tenth House Lagna

11.52.40 28° Virgo 23°.5' Sagittarius

11.49.0 27° 22°.1'

At 14° North we have -

11.52.40 28° 22°.40'

11.49.0 27° 21°.51'

At 13°.41', the birth place, we have -

11.52.40 28° 22°.47'.55"

11.49.0 27° 21°.58'.36"

By applying the rule of three for the required Sidereal time, the tropical Lagna is Sagittarius 22°.40'.3" and the Sidereal Lagna (Nirayana) is Vrischika 29°.44'.42". Similarly the tenth house cusp's tropical Virgo 27°.50'.26" or Nirayana Kanya 4°.55'.5".

The distance from the tenth house to the lagna is 84°.49'.37". One third of this is 28°.16'.33". Adding this to the tenth we get the eleventh is Tula 3°.11'.37". Adding the same to this we have the twelfth in Vrischika 1°.28'.9". Half of 28°.16'.33". is 14°.8'.17". Adding this to the tenth we get the junction of the bhava at 19°.3'.22" of Virgo. Similarly the eleventh ends at 17°.19'.54" of Tula. The twelfth ends at Vrischika 15°.36'.25". Deducting this half from thirty degree we get 15°.51'.43". Add this to the longitudes of the first, second and third houses to get their junction points. The planets at or near these points are said to be weak.

The present editor has serious doubts about the whole method. The longitude of the tenth house is said to be its central point. The longitude of the ascendant, however, is representing the moment of birth, and hence its starting

Moon, Mars and Jupiter are the Sun's friends. Moon's friends are the Sun and Mercury. Sun, Moon and Jupiter are the friends of Mars. Sun and Venus are the friends of Mercury. Sun, Moon and Mars are the friends of Jupiter. The friends of Venus are Mercury and Saturn. The friends of Saturn are Mercury and Venus. Saturn and Venus are the enemies of the Sun. The Moon has no enemies. The enemy of Mars is Mercury and that of Mercury is the Moon. Jupiter's enemies are Mercury and Venus. The foes of Venus are the Sun and Moon. Saturn's enemies are the Sun, Moon and Mars. The remaining ones in each case are neutrals. Relating these relationships to the temporary relationships appearing in a given chart, one has to find out those who are exceedingly friendly (adhi mitra) and those that are exceedingly inimical (adhi Satru).

Notes

Planets in 2, 3, 4, 10, 11, 12 from a planet are the temporary friends of the given planet. We have to relate this to the natural relationship.

भौमः शुक्रबुधनेद्रुपर्शशिजा: शुक्रार्ज्जीवनेयोर्मन्देज्या: क्रमशः क्रियादिग्रुपा: स्वादाघवर्गो ग्रुह्म् ॥ ३ ॥

होरा तस्य दर्ल त्रिभागकपितं द्रेष्काणमित्य्युच्यते सप्तांशो नवमस्तथा रविबलवांशशको वर्गजाः ।

The lords of the twelve signs from Mesha onwards are Mars, Venus, Mercury, Moon, Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Saturn and Jupiter. The vargas or divisions of any chart are to be noted. The first is the griha or house or sign. A sign has two horas of equal duration. One third of a sign is called a decanate (drekkana). Other sub-divisions are saptamsa, navamsa, dvadasamsa and trimsamsa. These are the major seven vargas.

Notes

In an odd sign the first hora is that of the Sun and the second that of the Moon. In an even sign, these are the Moon and the Sun. Each sign has three equal decanates ruled respectively 'y its lord, the lord of the fifth from it, and

the lord of the ninth from it. Saptamsa is the division of a sign into seven equal parts, each having 4°.17'.88". In odd signs these are governed by the lords of the first seven Rasis from that sign; and in even rasis the lords are from the seventh of that sign. Navamsa is the ninth part of a sign, each having 3°.20'. For the signs Aries, Leo and Sagittarius these are counted from Aries; for Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn, the count is from Capricorn; for Libra, Aquarius and Gemini, the counting is from Libra; and for Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, the Counting is from Cancer. Dvadasamsa is one-twelfth part, each having 2°.30'. The count is from the sign concerned. Trimsamsa is one-thirtieth part. These are grouped into five. In odd signs the trimsamsas are in Aries (0° to 5°), Aquarius (5° to 10°), Sagittarius (10° to 18°), Gemini (18° to 25°) and Libra (25° to 30°). In even signs these fall in Taurus (0° to 5°), Virgo (5° to 12°), Pisces (12° to 20°), Capricorn (20° to 25°) and Scorpio (25° to 30°). These are the Sapta Vargas.

सिंहोक्षाजवबुधनुर्दर्गचटा मूलत्रिकोणाभिधा: कुम्भश्च क्रमशो रवेः क्रियातुरौ नकाड्गनगनाकर्कटा: ॥ ४ ॥

मीनस्तैलिगृहं च तुङ्गरभवं तत् स्थिते खेचरे वीर्य रुपपितं त्वथो त्रिचरणा मूलत्रिकोणे बलम् । स्वक्षेत्रेऽद्बलं स्वमित्रभवने पादं त्योष्टेऽरिजन्म-क्षत्राब्जाष्टिमत् तद्र्दशमिथशत्रावष्टमांश: समे ॥ ५ ॥

Simha is the mulatrikona of the Sun; Vrishabha for the Moon, Mesha for Kuja, Kanya for Budha, Dhanus for Guru, Tula for Shukra and Kumbha for Shani are the mulatrikonas. Sun in Mesha, Moon in Vrishabha, Kuja in Makara, Budha in Kanya, Guru in Karkataka, Shukra in Mina and Shani in Tula are exalted. When a planet is exalted, he gets full one rupa of strength. In his mulatrikona the planet has three fourths of a rupa as his strength. In his own house the strength is half a rupa. In a friend's house it is one-fourth, and in the house of great friend (adhi mitra) it is three-fourths. In an enemy's house it is one-sixteenth; and in a bitter enemy's (adhi-Shatru) house it is 1/32. In the house of a neutral it is one-eighth.

The combination of natural (naisargika) and temporary (tatkalika) relationships have to be noted. The following table is to be noted. Temporary friends are those situated in houses 2, 3, 4, 10, 11, 12 from the planet concerned.

Temporary friend + Natural friend Adhi mitra

Temporary friend + Natural enemy Neutral

Temporary friend + Natural neutral Friend

Temporary enemy + Natural enemy Adhi Satru

Temporary enemy + Natural friend Neutral

Temporary enemy + Natural neutral Enemy

The degrees of deepest exaltation are—Sun 10°, Moon 3°, Kuja 28°, Budha 15°, Guru 5°, Shukra 27° and Shani 20°.

The Mula trikona degrees are Sun 0° to 20°, Moon 4° to 20°, Kuja 0° to 12°, Budha 16° to 20°, Guru 0° to 10°, Shukra 0° to 15°, and Shani 0° to 20°.

वक्री स्वोच्चबले सर्वकसहिते मध्यं बलं तुष्टरामे वक्री नीचबले स्वनीचभवने चक्राबलं तुष्टरजाम् । उच्चस्थे युतोच्चस्वरीभिमिति चेन्तीचे तु शून्यं बलं मिन्रे: पापखगै रुपुखगैश्चोपी चार्थ बलम् ॥ ६ ॥

When a planet is retrograde, his strength is equal to that of exaltation. A planet in conjunction with a retrograde one has the strength of half a Rupa. A planet exalted in the Rasi while retrograde is similar to a debilitated one and it has no strength. A retrograde planet in his debilitation has the strength of exaltation. A planet in conjunction with a planet in exaltation has the strength of half a Rupa. When it is conjoined with a planet in debilitation has no strength. A planet in conjunction with malefics who are his friends, or with benefics that are his enemies, has a strength of half a Rupa.

Rupa is a unit of measurement to calculate the

strength. It is the numeral one. The views regarding retrograde planet in exaltation or in debilitation are found to be inaccurate in actual experience. Any retrogression gives strength to the planet and increases its Cheshta Bala.

Consider the first Chart. Look at the fifth house, the house of Children. Mars is aspecting it as lord of one and 6. This malefic aspects the sixth also. The fifth lord who is also the significator of children is in the twelfth from lagna which is the eighth from the fifth. Both are in the houses of their enemies. Guru is stronger by being retrograde. The native has two sons and a daughter because of this Guru and because Kuja is the lord of lagna. Moreover, from Chandra lagna the fifth house is strong.

In chart 2 Shani is retrograde in his debilitation and is aspected by a benefic. Shani as the lord of the fourth gave him plenty of lands. It is the chart of a general.

In chart 3 that of Mr. Morarji Desai two exalted planets are retrograde. One is the lord of the tenth aspecting it. The other is the lord of the ninth aspecting the exalted but retrograde Guru. This explains why he was driven out of power frequently. Kuja's aspect on Guru also is responsible for this.

अर्केन्द्रोविभवेsन्यथा समगृहे होरेगृहे द्रेक्काणके लग्नेष्टकृद्गृहेशवराश्चरगृहे भाग्येश्वराश्च त्यये ।। ७ ।। पुत्रेशाच्छ त एव तु द्वितीयभे सप्तांशकास्त्वोजभे लग्नेशात्समभे तु सप्तमगृहेच्चाथो नवांशात्क्रमात् ।

Saptamsa is the seventh part of a sign. In the case of an odd sign these are to be counted from the lord of lagna; and in the case of an even sign the counting is from the lord of the seventh.

Next, we speak of Navamsa.

The widely accepted view about the lords of the three drekkannas is that each drekkana is ruled by the owners of the first, fifth, and ninth signs from it. The author offers a second view. A very ancient view advocated by Yavanesvara is that the lords of the drekkannas are the owners of the first, twelfth, and eleventh houses from it. The first view is acceptable.

About Saptamsa this author wants us to count from the lord of the first or the seventh. The placement of the lord of the house is not relevant. It is the house proper from which we have to count.

मेये सिंहगृहे धनुज्यजनवांशस्यादिमस्तक्रमा- नीचान्तं भवनाधिपाद्विलवेशास्त्रिंशदंशास्तथ्यो ।। ८ ।। वाणेष्वष्टनगेवो विषमभे भीमार्किसूर्यन्दुजा: शुक्रो व्यत्ययतस्त एव समभे स्यात्सप्तवर्यंगस्वयम् ।

The navamsas of Mesha, Simha and Dhanus have to be counted from Mesha. In this way the last navamsa of the last sign end in Mina. Dvadasamsa is the twelfth part of a sign covering 2°.30'. These have to be counted from the concerned sign. In an odd sign the Trimsamsas are ruled by Kuja, Shani, Guru, Budha and Shukra respectively. They rule 5, 5, 8, 7 and 5 degrees in a sequence. In an even sign the sequence is of 5, 7, 8, 5 and 5 degrees ruled by Shukra, Budha, Guru, Shani and Kuja.

रूपार्थं भवनोदितं शुभबलं प्राग्वलद्विलिख्याथ तद्-दशोरादिश्यं षड्‌गतं तत्पतिवशाद्गृहोक्तवीर्यांकम् ।। ९ ।। संलिख्याथ समस्तवर्गबलैक्यं सप्तवर्गोद्भवं रूपार्थं त्विदमेव वीर्यमुदितं खेटेऽपि सप्तस्वपि ।

Place against the sign the strength in terms of Rupas. Then note the strength of each planet in the seven Vargas. The strength will be less than that of the Rasi. Total these for each planet. This is the Saptavarga strength. This process has to be followed for all the seven planets.

A planet in exaltation has the strength of one Rupa or unit, in its mulatrikona .75, in its own house .5, in an Adhi mitra house .375, in a friend's house .25, in a neutral house .125, in an enemy's house .0625, and in an Adhi Shatru's house .03125. The strength of a mulatrikona house is limited only to the position in Rasi.

Shukra is in the eleventh Bhava.

Consider chart 6. The mutual relationships of the planet and the Saptavargas are given below. Ravi and Kuja have exchanged signs. Shani and Shukra are in their own houses. Shukra is in his mulatrikona. Kuja is Vargottama and shifts to the ninth bhava, while

In our example horoscope the exaltation strength of the planets is—Sun .2213, Moon .605, Kuja .103, Budha .645, Guru .7024, Shukra .111, and Shani .565.

Multiply the nata in Ghatikas by two and divide it by sixty. This indicates the Natabala in the form of a Rupa. Subtract this from one to get the unnatabala. Moon, Mars and Saturn have nata bala, and the others unnATABALA.

स्वायु: स्वेनुकराननवेदशरषड्भानोनितं रि:फभा-द्वारं यदस्य खले शुभे यदि दलों पापलनेपुङ्खिलम् । नीचारातिगृहे खगेष्टमयगे दृष्टिद्विभागोनिते ह्वांशोऽयं हि पराभवे पुनरपि स्वादंशजायुस्वदतम् ॥ २ ॥

The total comes to 66.18. This comes to 66 years, two months and 5 days.

Malefics occupying houses 7 to 12, lose a part of the years they contribute. The loss is full in the 12th, half in the 11th, 1/3 in 10th, 1/4 in 9th, 1/5 in 8th, and 1/6 in 7th. Benefics in these houses lose half of what the malefics lose. That is, from the twelfth onwards they lose 1/2, 1/4, 1/6, 1/8, 1/10 and 1/12.

A malefic occupying lagna removes the years contributed by the Lagna.

A planet in delibitation loses half, a planet in an enemy's house loses one-third, and a planet in combustion or defeated in war loses one half of its years. This is the peculiarity of this method.

Notes

There is not only reduction, but also an increase which is taken for granted by the author.

(a) The years contributed by a planet are trebled when it is exalted or retrograde.

(b) The years are doubled when it is Vargottama (same sign in Rasi and Navamsa), when it is in its navamsa sign or Rasi sign or in its own Drekkana. Only the maximum multiplication has to be done, not two or more.

In our example Budha is retrograde and his years have to be multiplied by three. Shukra and Shani are in their own houses and Guru is in his own house in Navamsa. Kuja is Vargottama. Thus the years contributed by Kuja, Guru, Shukra and Shani have to be doubled. We thus get the following figures:

Ravi 8.95, Chandra .5, Kuja 9.93, Budha 25.995, Guru 17.14, Shukra 22.21, and Shani 23.0. The total comes to 107.725 years.

Next comes the reduction known as Chakrapata as explained by the author. When there are two or more planets in the same house, only the strongest is subject to reduction.

The Shadbalas of the example chart show that Budha is stronger than Ravi, and Guru is stronger than Kuja. Guru gets into the tenth bhava. Hence the reduction is for both Kuja and Guru.

Budha as a malefic loses half the years he has contributed. Guru in the tenth bhava loses one-sixth. Thus he gives 14.283 years. Kuja loses one-fourth and he now gives 7.4475 years. Shukra in the eleventh loses one-fourth. His contribution now is 16.6575 years.

Let us tabulate thus far:

Ravi 8.95

Chandra 0.565

Kuja 7.4475

Budha 12.9975

Guru 14.283

Shukra 16.6575

Shani 23.0

Total 83.9005 years

The next deduction is one-third for occupying an enemy's house. Here no planet occupies such a house. Then we have to apply for combustion with the Sun. The distances from the Sun where combustion begins and ends are in degrees—Chandra 12, Kuja 17, Budha 14, Guru 11, Shukra 10, and Shani 15, Retrograde Budha 12, and Retrograde Shukra 8.

Budha is combust and he loses everything.

Finally there is the reduction due to a malefic rising in lagna. In our example there is Budha.

The author's treatment of this reduction is sketchy. The last arises after all the increases and reductions are made. Multiply the number of Amsas elapsed in lagna by the total number of years given by the planets. This is to be divided by 108. The quotient gives the years to be deducted from the total.

For a more accurate method of calculating Amsa Ayurdaya, the best text is Sripati Paddhati.

लग्ने भुक्तविनाडीका नवगुणनार्त्यमानभक्ता: फलं वर्षाणि स्वार्णोहेररपि तथा तन्वाससाघ्यादिकम् । लग्ने शोभनखेचरेऽक्षितयुते स्वस्तामियुक्तेऽक्षिते तुङ्गे स्वामिनि राशिसमिमितसमैचेत्युरेके बुधा: ॥ ३ ॥

Find how many ghatikas and vighatikas have elapsed in lagna. Multiply this by nine and divide the product by the total duration of the lagna. This gives the years contributed by lagna. The remainder has to be converted into months and days.

The lagna becomes strong when its lord or a benefic is in it or aspects it, or when its lord is exalted. Then the number of years contributed by the lagna are to be counted from Mesha to the lagna. This is the view of some astrologers.

Notes

When a malefic is in the lagna or aspects it, the deduction is only half of what was arrived at in the notes of the previous verse. If two or more planets are in lagna, we have to consider only the one who is nearer to the lagna.

The years contributed by lagna have to be noted. In our example only eight navamsas elapsed, and in the second .925 was over. Thus it gives 8.925 years. The aspect of its lord does not fall on it as there is only a distance of 103°.12'. It is not 120°. Adding 8.925 to the previous total we get years 79.828. This is not true, as the Krurodaya

[ERROR page 28 - NVIDIA client error]

the strongest Kendra, exalted and in his own house, Shukra is not in a kendra or kona, but is in the eleventh in his own house. The significator of longevity Shani aspects him while Guru aspects the lagna. This is the chart of the famous Engineer, M Visvesvarayya who passed away in September 1962 after living full 101 years. These benefics can be in their own house. But they should not be in 6, 8 or 12 for long life.

Chart 8 is that of Mrs Rukmini Arundale. Here Guru is in the eleventh in his own house aspected by the significator of longevity, Budha and Shukra are in a Kona. The association of Budha with a malefic did not spoil the yoga as the malefic is the significator of longevity and is in his own house. She passed away in February 1986 at the age of 82.

To insist on the three benefics being in kendras and konas is too much. If one is in his own house or in exaltation or in a friend's house, the yoga may not give 100 to 120 years; but it does give more than 66. In Chart 9 the tenth kendra has: Budha and Guru aspected by the full Moon and the lord of 4 and 9. Budha is not blemished by the Sun. Shukra is exalted in the 8th. He is still alive. Of course the eighth house has an exalted planet aspected by ayush karaka Shani.

Similarly in Prof. Radha Krishnan's chart Budha and Shukra are in lagna (Virgo), Budha exalted in his own house. Guru is in the third. He died at the age of 86.

In chart 10 exalted Shukra is in the seventh aspecting lagna. Guru is in a trine aspecting lagna. Only Budha is away in the sixth, in a friend's house. Ayushkaraka aspects him, just as the eighth lord aspects Guru who is in the fifth. He has completed 75 years of age.

In a Cancer nativity Guru is in the tenth with the Sun and Moon, while Budha and Shukra are in the ninth. He died after completing 72 years of age.

The second combination is for medium longevity-between 33 and 66. The three benefics have to be in houses 2, 3, and 11. In Chart 11 all the three are in the eleventh house, one of them being the lord of lagna. He died in 1977 at the age of 55.

Medium life is spread over a long span. The author does not give us any clue as to how to fix the approximate longevity. Possibly we have to calculate Amsa Ayu and co-relate with dasa and antardasa.

The third combination is for short life. This is upto 33 years of age. The three benefics have to be in houses 6, 8, 12. In Chart 12 Guru is in the sixth and Shukra in the eighth. The two have exchanged houses. But Budha is in a trine. The native died in the eleventh year. This may also be due to Shani's opposition to the eighth lord and his aspect on Budha.

The fourth combination is peculiar. The malefics have to be in Kendra, Kona, and houses 8 and 12. This is inauspicious. A malefic like Shani in the eighth does give long life. Kuja in the eighth does disturb the health. In the 13th chart Shani is in lagna aspecting the tenth Guru. Kuja is in a trine with Rahu. Ravi, another malefic, is also in lagna. Only one Kendra has a benefic. The native had no robust health. He died in March 1972 after lying unconscious for a month. eighth house has no planet. The twelfth has a natural benefic.

The author's view has to be modified. In chart 14 the eighth and twelfth have malefics, a malefic is in the tenth with the Sun and combust Moon. She married a rich person who became poor. From the lord of lagna, who is in an enemy's house, the twelfth has three malefics.

ल्गेशे न निरीक्ष्यते सति तथा केन्द्रत्रिकोणस्थि ते-ल्गेशस्थिरतराशिनेतरि पुनर्लगने न दृष्टे शुभे: | अल्पायु: सुतदारान्द्रिरहितो जातो भवेदन्यथा दीर्घायुर्युवृहाभागवान् धनमर्तिहीनो भवेत्कीर्तिमान् || ७ ||

Another combination for short life and an exception are given. When (i) the Lord of the Lagna is not aspected by any benefic situated in a Kendra or Kona and (ii) at the same time the owner of the sign occupied by the Lord of the Lagna is not having the beneficial aspect from Kendra or Kona and (iii) the lagna is devoid of benefic aspect from Kendra or Kona, then the native has a short life and is

denied spouse, children and intellect.

But when the Lagna, Lagna Lord and the Lord of the sign occupied by Lagna Lord are having benefic aspect from Kendra or Kona then one has a long life, plenty of fortune, wealth, intelligence and fame.

Notes

The combination wants the aspect of a benefic situated in 1, 4, 7, 10, 5 or 9 on the lagna and on its lord, if there is to be a long life. In chart 15 the lagna is not aspected by any. The lord of lagna is not aspected by any benefic from kendra or kona. The lord of the sign occupied by the lord of la-

gna is in a kendra, but is not aspected by any. The lady died in July 1946 at the age of 21. The combination prescribed fits exactly. In chart 16 the lagna is devoid of any aspect and so is the lord of the lagna.

The owner of the sign, Moon, is aspected by Guru, but not from any kendra or kona. He committed suicide in November 1985, at the age of 19. The combination is fulfilled.

An example for the exception is chart 17. Here the lord of lagna is in a

is also a malefic in the twelfth house from the lord of lagna; and this too is an indication for short life. Shukra, lord of the sign having the lagna lord, is combust. Consider chart 21. Here lagna and the lord of the sign occupied by the lagna lord have no benefic aspects. The Moon is aspected by Shani. The lord of the eighth house from lagna, Guru, is aspected both by Shani and Kuja. He was fatally shot in January 1974.

In chart 22 the lagna lord is in his own house and is not aspected by any benefic. The lord of the eighth is Venus and he is aspected by Shani. She died in November 1916. The lord of the eighth house also aspects the lagna, and he is debilitated in a maraka house.

In chart 23 the lord of lagna is aspected by Shani, who is the owner of that sign. There are no benefic aspects on either. The lagna is aspected by the eighth lord. The lagna is also the eighth from the Moon. She died in January 1937. There is also a malefic in the twelfth from lagna. The Moon is debilitated and is aspected by the malefic Mars. The lord of the third is in any enemy's house aspected by Shani. Hence there is short life.

The yogas mentioned in the first verse are destroyed by the following groups of planets:

(i) Debilitated planets;

(ii) Planets defeated in war;

(iii) Planets in the houses of their enemies;

(iv) Planets aspected by, or are with, or are placed between malefics;

(v) Planets with a retrograde one, with the Sun, or with Rahu;

(vi) Planets in a Bhava-Sandhi;

(vii) Weak planets; and

(viii) Planets owning 6, 8, 12 houses but with the lords of kendras or trikonas.

Notes

When two or more planets are within one degree in the same sign, the planet that is ahead is said to be victorious. The planets Budha, Guru and Shani are called Paura. Kuja and Shukra are named yayi. The war between one Paura and another Paura is the worst. The war involving two yayis is mild. The war between one Paura and one Yayi is worse.

A weak planet is one weak in Shadbala having less than five Rupas of strength. According to Sripati, the minimum strength required in Rupas is—Ravi 6.5, Chandra 6.0, Kuja 5.00, Budha 7.00, Guru 6.5, Shukra 5.5 and Shani 5.00. The minimum required under various heads is as follows:

Sthana Dik Cheshta Kala Ayana Ravi 2.75 0.583 .833 1.867 .5 Chandra 2.217 0.833 .5 1.667 .667 Kuja 1.6 .5 .667 1.167 .334 Budha 2.75 0.583 .833 1.867 .5 Guru 2.75 0.583 .833 1.867 .5 Shukra 2.217 0.833 .5 1.667 .667 Shani 1.6 .5 .667 1.167 .334

Consider chart 36. Kuja, a powerful lord, is vanquished by Shukra (ii), Shani, a yoga karaka is in an enemy's house, (iii). and he aspects the seventh house (iv). Budha is combust (v). Shani, Shukra and Budha own houses 6, 8, 12. He was destroyed in

(I) The lords of the ninth and the tenth should be in

their own houses;

(ii) These lords should be together in the 9th or 10th;

(iii) They should exchange houses (or stars);

(iv) They should aspect each other;

(v) They should be with the lords of 1, 4, 5 or 7;

(vi) They should be in houses 1, 4, 5 or 7.

But these two lords should not own the eighth or eleventh house.

Notes

The ninth is the strongest kona called dharma, bhagya. The tenth is the strongest kendra known as karma, rajya.

Chart 39 shows the exchange of houses between the ninth and the tenth lords. The ninth lord is with the lords of 4 and 5–education and intellect. Guru as one significator of education is aspecting lagna. The fifth lord is exalted, from Chandra lagna the exchange is between the lords of 4 and 5. This is the chart of the author of relativity, Einstein. The effects of Rajya yoga were well manifested even though Shani owns the eighth and Shukra the twelfth.

Chart 40 is that of B. G. Tilak. The ninth lord is in his own house with the waxing Moon. The tenth lord and the ninth lord are aspecting each other. The tenth lord also owns the fifth. It was in the major

period of Kuja that he became the undisputed leader of the independence movement. K. Kamaraj also has a similar placement of Kuja and Guru for the same lagna; and his Kuja's period was a spectacular one.

In chart 41 the ninth lord has exchanged houses with the lord of lagna. The tenth lord is in the fourth with the fifth lord and lord of lagna. Kuja aspects Shukra, the tenth lord. It is the chart of Hari krishna Mehtab, who was a former Chief Minister of Orissa. The Raja yoga is strengthened by the lords of lagna and fifth house.

Dr. C. Siva Rama Murthi, the noted art-critic, has the ninth (Ravi) and tenth (Budha) lords together in the seventh. Yehudi Menuhin has these in the fifth Aries. Arjun Singh (Mithuna lagna) has the ninth lord in the seventh and the tenth lord in Lagna.Radhakrishnan's chart has the ninth and the tenth lords in Kanya lagna aspected by the fifth lord from Cancer. M. Visvesvarayya whose chart was earlier given (Lagna Dhanus) had the ninth and tenth lord in the tenth, unaspected by any. Tippu Sultan with the same lagna has them unfortunately in the twelfth with Shani and Rahu.

There are three pairs of planets: (i) owners of the ninth and tenth houses from lagna; (ii) owners of the ninth and the tenth from the ninth house; and (iii) lords of these houses from the tenth. These three respectively give high, medium or small position to the native.

These three pairs can have three kinds of relationship between them: (a) conjunction, (b) interchange, and (c) mutual aspect.

1. Any one of these pairs may be mutually related by any of the three relationships. They should be strong.

2. Any one of these pairs may be in mutual kendras.

3. Any pair must have conjunction with the planet owning the house occupied by the lagna lord.

Any one of these combinations will make the native wealthy and he will be a ruler (literally, a king).

In Einstein's chart (39) the lords of 9 and 10 have exchanged houses and they are strong. He is the presiding deity of modern mathematical physics. In Tilak's chart there is mutual aspect of these lords (40). They are in mutual kendras. In chart 41 the ninth lord aspects the lord of the tenth. A similar Kendra position appears in other charts. Chart 40 also shows Kuja and Guru as lords of 9 and 10 from the ninth. It is a medium yoga. In another chart the ninth and tenth lords from the tenth are Kuja and Guru who are in mutual aspect and who are in mutual kendras. The yoga is small. This may explain his suffering. In a chart given earlier the lords of 9 and 10 from the ninth are Guru and Shani who are together in Shukra's house with Shukra.

In Stalin's chart (44) the lords of 9 and 10 from the ninth are Shani and Guru who have exchanged houses. This confers only a medium Raja yoga. Their ownerships from lagna and Chandra did not make his rise smooth or orderly. A certain ruthlessness was clear from the Moon (tenth lord) in conjunction with Shani in the sixth.

In chart 45 yogakaraka Kuja is in the tenth aspected by Shani (lord of 6 and 7) and by Guru (lord of 5 and 8). Kuja aspects lagna also. The lords of 5 and 7 are in mutual aspects; and these are lords of 9 and 10 from the ninth. He became a distinguished Dewan of Travancore, Mysore and Baroda. Jupiter aspects the lord of the ninth in the tenth, and also the lord of

Effects of the Planets and Houses

the tenth.

In chart 46 the lords of 9 and 10 from lagna, from the ninth, and from the tenth are in mutual kendras. This is a strong Raja yoga by itself. There are other yogas as well. He made a distinguished contribution as the Dewan of Mysore. The lord of the ninth is in the tenth. The lord of 4 and 11 is in the eleventh. Guru is with the Moon.

In chart 47 the lords of 9 and 10 are in mutual aspect and in mutual kendras. The tenth lord is exalted. Shani and Guru are the lords of 9 and 10 from the ninth and they are in mutual kendras. He was an I.C.S. officer. He was wealthy and prosperous.

राज्येशोद्दयपाच्च राज्यशुभदपि श्रीधरातनयस्यस्तप- श्वशुराद्यैःक्षपिता च तो खगवैराज्ञेकत्र वानोयंधे । उत्कृष्टंय सुहृत्स्वभोच्चभवनैश्वर्योयुक्तेक्षितः वृद्धिं वाजिगजातिकान् सुखसुतादृश्यं च दधुः क्रमात् ॥ ५ ॥

Note the following:

(i) The lords of the Lagna, navamsa lagna and of the sign occupied by the lord of lagna.

(ii) The lords of the ninth and tenth houses.

(iii) The lords of houses 3, 4, 5 and 7.

(iv) The lords of 2 and 11.

These four sets of planets must be placed in any one of these houses; or they should exchange houses; or they must mutually aspect each other from a friendly, own or

exaltation house. Then they give respectively (i) prosperity, (ii) vehicles like horses and elephants, (iii) happiness and children, and (iv) wealth.

Notes

In chart 48 the lords of 9 and ten are in mutual aspect and in mutual kendras, (ii). Shani (lord of 3 and 4), Guru (lord of 5) and Shukra (Lord of 7) are in mutual aspects, (iii). She has vehicles, children and happiness She wielded power as the Chief Minister of a State.

In chart 49 the lord of lagna is in the ninth with his friend Shukra. The lord of the sign occupied by its lord are together in the ninth (i), Lords of 2 and 11 are conjunct in the tenth (ii). The third lord with the seventh lord is aspecting the lord of 4 and 5, (iii) . There is a strong Raja yoga. The native has great wealth arising from his powerful position in life. The lords of 10 and 11 have exchanged houses, as required by the author. He was an I.C.S.

Chart 50 is that of a highly placed influential person. Shukra and Guru are in their own houses, and they are the lords of 4, 5 and 7 (i). The lords of 9 and 10 are conjoined in the second (ii). The lord of lagna and the lord of the sign having him are in

In chart 51 the lords of 9 and 10 are in mutual aspect and in mutual kendras. The Sun as the second lord is exalted in the tenth. The lord of lagna is in his mulatrikona. Shani is at the very end of the eighth. The lord of the sixth is in the twelfth. The chart has Raja yoga. The ninth house is aspected by the tenth lord. The lord of the fourth in the eighth denied happiness. The exchange of the lords of 9 and 12 brought misfortunes as well. The welfare of his children is assured.

नाशस्थानगतो दिवाकरकरलुप्तस्तु बद्धाशिपो नीचारातिगतोऽश्व यद् धनेत्सौम्ययुक्तेक्षि: । तद्रावस्य विनाशं मुनिगणा: शंसन्ति सौम्यैर्युत्त- श्वेतत्रापि फलप्रदो न हि तथा तन्वादिभानां क्रमात् ॥ ६ ॥

The lord of a bhava posited in the eighth house and eclipsed by the rays of the Sun; occupying his sign of debilitation or an enemy's house and not with or aspected by benefics—then such a bhava is destroyed. Even if that bhava is associated with benefics, it does not give good results at all. In this manner we have to judge the lagna and the various bhavas.

The lord of the lagna occupying the first, second or third drekkana will make the native respectively a judge, a ruler of a mandala (district or extended area), or a head of a village.

(i) The full Moon strong in Shadbala should be exalted, in his own or in a friend's house and it should be the fourth, seventh, ninth or tenth house from lagna; and this full Moon should be with or aspected by Guru or Shukra.

(ii) Or, Kuja and Shani should be strong in Shadbala, have the aspect of a benefic and be posited in the second or the tenth house from Lagna. In either case the native will be all-knowing (Sarvajna), full of virtuous qualities, Charitable and praised by the people at large.

Notes

In the chart of George VI lagna is the first drekkana of Tula; and its lord is posited in the second drekkana of lagna. He became the king of the United Kingdom. emperor Hirohito was born in the first drekkana of Dhanus and its owner is in the third decanate of the same sign. Ravi, Budha and Shukra are in the fifth, Ravi exchanging signs with Kuja. Shani also being in lagna he was transformed into a titular head of a democratic nation.

In the chart of Ramana Maharshi, given earlier, the full Moon is in the ninth from Tula lagna and is aspected by Guru from the fifth house. He was virtuous, wise, generous, famous, and adored by millions. In chart 52, that of Swami Vivekananda, the waxing Moon is in the tenth with Shani who made him a yogi also the spiritual benefactor of millions. The ninth lord is in lagna, and the fifth lord is in his own house. Lords 2 and 10 have exchanged houses.

Consider chart 54. The full Moon is in the ninth in a friend's house with debilitated but retrograde Shani. This Moon receives the aspects of the lord of lagna (Ravi), Budha, and Guru (the lord of the fifth), Kuja, yogakaraka for this lagna is posited in the tenth having a mutual aspect with Shukra. This is the chart of Guru Nanak who was virtuous, famous, liberal and wise.

Chart 55 is that of his Holiness Sri Nrisimha Bharati. Shani is practically in the tenth and Kuja in the second, his own

In Swami Slvananda's chart 53 the full Moon is the lord of lagna placed in the tenth. He is well aspected by Guru and Shani. Apart from other yogas, the yoga mentioned by the author is proved in this case.

It may be noted that yogas have a reference only to the Rasi positions, not to the bhava chart.

Benefics occupying houses 6, 7 and 8 from the Moon cause Adhi Yoga. There should be no malefics in these houses. Then the native becomes a king or one equal to a

king and experiences greatest happiness. He is long-lived, victorious, famous in all ways, and learned, and he has all

the pleasures. He has wife, children, friends and other various supports that bring ananda (pleasures or happiness) along with conveyances.

Notes

Srutakirti stated that the ancients spoke of seven kinds of Adhi yoga. Then the three benefics need not be in

the three houses. They can be in two houses or in one only. If there is only one planet strongly placed in one of these

houses, the native becomes a leader. If there are two, he becomes a minister. If there are three, he has an eminent

position in life.

Chart 80 shows Guru in the sixth and Shukra in the seventh. There is also a malefic in the sixth. Her fa-

ther was wealthy while her husband was in the Indian Audit and Accounts Service. Yoga karaka Mars is in

the fifth in his own house. The lord of the ninth is in his mulatrikona in the sixth. The lords of 7 and 11

such a way as to make us infer that both have Tamas. It is safer for many to follow Varahamihira.

have exchanged signs.

If Guru were to be in the sixth or eighth from the Moon, it will give rise to kemadruma yoga which is undesirable.

Hence Guru should be in the seventh for a proper Adhi yoga.

In Shivaji's chart (Simha lagna already given), the Moon is in kanya with Ravi and Guru in Kumbha, Budha

in Mina, and Shukra in Mesha. This is more or less a perfect adhi yoga.

Dikshita (Kanya lagna) had his Moon in Mina while Ravi and Budha are in Kanya and Shukra in Tula. The

two benefics are in their own houses, and Budha is aspected by the Moon and by Guru from Makara. This is a

perfect yoga.

The units of brilliance for the seven planets (in the order of the week days) are 30, 16, 6, 8, 10, 12 and

1. Take the Kalas of the lord of the ninth from the Moon. Add them. Divide it by twelve and take the remainder. Count the remain-

der from the Moon sign. This is Indu lagna. If there is a benefic without any malefic, the native becomes a

multi-millionaire. If there is a malefic, his wealth is in thousands only. If the malefic is exalted, he will be

multi millionaire.

Notes

To measure the financial assets this Indu lagna is considered by some astrologers.

within one degree, and they are absent when they are separated by twelve degrees. In the intermediate positions we have to determine the strength of the yoga proportionately.

If the faster planet is in advance by twelve or more degrees, the good effects of the yoga are spoilt till that period.

Notes

This combination is known as conjunction. Its orb is eight or twelve degrees. In chart 87 the lords of 9 and 10 from the ninth and from the tenth are Ravi and Budha. They form a strong Raja Yoga. Ravi and Shukra are Vargottama. The ninth lord aspects the tenth while Shani, the lord of 10 and 11 aspects the eleventh. The combination of the lords of 3, 5 and 7 made the native influential and prosperous. Jupiter is a powerful yoga karaka. Malefics are in 3 and 6. Venus is combust.

तद्‌गृहे प्रदीयते यस्मै वा चन्द्रे: प्राप्यते बलं । स्थानात्‌शोक्तलवैर्विशेषफलकृत्‌क्षोभादि:कार्यति: ।। पश्यन्त्येव खगाः समस्तभवना न्युच्चे स्वने चोत्तमे: तत्राधीष्टगृहे समा इतरथा हीनाः फलप्रापणे ।। ३३ ।।

When a strong Moon has an applying aspect on one of the two planets causing the yoga (given in verse 32), within the limits of the orb, the results will be specially significant. If the aspecting Moon is posited in 6, 8 or 12, the results will not be marked ones. Planets aspect all houses. The aspect gives the best results if the aspecting planet is exalted or is in his own house. The results are average when the aspecting one is in a friend's house.

When the aspecting planet's degrees are less than those of the aspected one, it is an applying aspect. When the aspecting planet's degrees are more, it is a separating aspect.

Earlier in verses 2. 18 and 19 the author states that no planet aspects 2, 6, 11 and 12 from itself. Here he observes that planets aspect all houses. The aspects on 2 and 12 are called Parallel, on the third it is sextile (60°) or semi square (45°) and on the sixth it is quincunx (150°).

This is the view of Western astrologers. In calculating drishti bala (aspect strength), we take into consideration only the distance from 30° to 300° between the aspecting and the aspected.

भावेशो भवनाच्च यावति गृहे तिष्ठेत्प्रदृश्यते तावत्तत्‌ तत्‌द्रदत् शुभाशुभवशादूषास्वदृश्वा बदेत् । एवं लग्नधनाभृद्‌भिस्समर्गृक्‌क्षैरेशे रि:कात्पदा न्यासौ रि:फगुहाद् भवेत्‌उपपदं दारापदं सप्तमात् ।। ३४ ।।

Note the sign where the lord of a Bhava is posited. Count from that Bhava to the sign having its lord. The same number of signs counted from that lord gives the Pada or Arudha Pada of that Bhava. With reference to this Arudha Pada of the concerned Bhava, we have to judge the auspicious or inauspicious nature of that Bhava, its decrease or its increase. Thus we have to determine eight Arudha padas for houses 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10 and 12. The Arudha for the twelfth house is called upapada and that of the seventh is Darapada.

Notes

The special names are 1. Lagna-Arudha lagna, 2. Kosa Pada, 4. Vahana or matri or Vidya Pada, 5. Mantra Pada, 7. Dara Pada, 9. Bhagya Pada, 10. Rajya Pada, 12. Upapada.

If the lord of lagna is in the fifth from lagna, the fifth from him is Arudha lagna. If the lord of the fifth is in the seventh from it, the fifth itself is the Arudha of that house. If the lord of the seventh is in the fourth from it, the fourth from its lord is the lagna and it is the darapada.

Ketu is the significator of the following: (1) Worship of the lord of Chandi, Ganesha and others, (2) Medical practitioner, (3) Dogs, (4) Cocks, (5) Vultures, (6) Final salvation, (7) All sorts of prosperity, (8) Consumption, (9) Painful fevers, (10) Bath in the Ganges, (11) Great penance, (12) Wind complaints, (13) Friendship with hunters, (14) Acquiring prosperity, (15) Stones, (16) Wounds, (17) Mantra Shastra, (18) Instability of mind, (19) Knowledge of Brahmn, (20) Diseases of the stomach and eye, (21) Stupidity, (22) Thorn, (23) Knowledge of the animals, zoology, (24) Observing silence religiously, (25) Vedanta, (26) All kinds of luxury, (27) Fortune, (28) Suffering from foes, (29) Sparing in eating, (30) Renunciation, (31) Father's father, (32) Hunger, (33) Great pain from peptic or duodenal ulcer, (34) Small pox, or boils and such other diseases, (35) Horned animals, (36) A servant of Shiva, (37) Getting the order of imprisonment revoked, and (38) Conversation or association with Shudras.

We will now illustrate some of these Karakatvas.

Chart 100 is that of Mr. Nanavati. It was alleged that he shot dead the paramour of his wife. The Moon

is weak and as lord of 12 is placed in the 11th aspected by malefic lord of the fourth and ninth lord Kuja. The seventh lord is devoid of aspects. The seventh lord is with Rahu and retrograde Guru. The seventh lord afflicts the Moon. Both body and soul are afflicted and so are the fifth and eighth houses. Shukra is between malefics. Guru's aspect on him shows love and a rival led to the final shoot-out.

Chart 101 shows the seventh lord afflicted by Kuja (lord of 6 and 11). The significator of marriage is in his own house, but is aspected by the powerful Shani from the sixth. The lagna is afflicted by Mars. This girl's husband committed suicide within ten months of the marriage.

Now-a-days we have the Ephemeris. They generally give the positions of the luminaries and planets on every day at 5.30 A.M. Now Lahiri's Ephemeris places the Moon on the twelfth at 5.30 A.M. in Kumbha at 14°.53'.18". On the thirteenth at 5.30 A.M. the Moon is in Kumbha at 29°.36'18". During these twenty four hours the Moon has traversed 14°.43'. The birth being at 11.30 A.M. the time is six hours after 5.30 A.M. During this time the Moon covers 3°.40'.45". Adding this to 14°.53'18" we get Kumbha 18°.34'3". From Mesha it is 19114 minutes and three seconds.

Each nakshatra covers 800 minutes, and each quarter of a nakshatra is for 200 minutes. Dividing 19114'3" by 200 we get 955 quarters and 114'3". Dividing 19114'3" by 800 we find that twenty three constellations are over, and in the 24th 714'3" are over. The 24th is Satabhisha from Asvini. It gives Rahu mahadasa at birth. From the duration of 800' for a constellation deduct 714'3". We get 85'57" or 5157 seconds. Multiply this by eighteen, the years of Rahu. The product is 92826". Eight hundred minutes of a nakshatra give 48000 seconds. Since we have converted the remainder into seconds, divide it by 48000. We get one year, eleven months and six days as the balance of Rahu mahadasa at the time of birth. This is the correct balance as compared with that derived from the Panchanga. There is only a difference of seven days.

तत्तखेटदशादशा विनिह्नता मासाः पुरोऽग्रस्त- स्वन्या|अक्षि|रुग्णो दिनानि सततं त्वेव हि चानर्दशाः । तद्भुक्तिसतु दिनीक्षता करहता तत्तदशाताडिता नाड्यचाद्या विदशा वियद्रसहता चेत्सरा दिनाद्या भवेत् ॥ ५ ॥ तद् तुक्ष्मदशादशोर्प गदितताश्चको विशोध्योऽस्ति तद् ग्रहा|दशा घटिकादृपमिह चाशोध्या ब्रजन्ति ऋमात् ।

The method for obtaining the duration of an antardasa is explained now. Note the number of years allotted to a planet whose major dasa is running. Multiply it by the number of years given to a planet whose sub-period is

required. Multiply the number in the place of the units by three. The result is the number of days. The numbers in tens and hundreds give the months of the antardasa. Thus we get the durations of each sub-period in a major period.

Convert the duration of the antardasa in days. Multiply it by the number of years given to the planet concerned. Divide the product by 120. The result is the duration of the sub-sub period (Vadasa) of the planet in the antardasa of another. The remainder is to be converted into ghatikas and Vighatikas.

Still a sub-period of this sub-sub-period can be obtained. This is the sukshma Dasa of a planet. The numbers arrived at will be the duration of the sukshma dasa in days, ghatikas and Vighatikas.

Notes

Take Rahu dasa which has 18 years. The first period will be that of Rahu, and the last that of Kuja. We require the sub-period of Shani who has 19 years. Multiply the two. The product is 342. The figure in units multiplied by three gives the number of days. The sub-period of Shani in Rahu is thus for 34 months and six days. The first Vidasa in the antardasa of Shani is that of Shani and the last is that of Guru. Now we want vidasa of Shani in Shani's antardasa. By converting the sub-period of Shani into days we get 1026 days. Multiply it by Shani's years (19) because we want the Vidasa of Shani. The product is 19494. Dividing this by 120 we get 162 days. The remainder is 54. This is to be converted into ghatikas. Multiply this by 60 and divide it by 120. We get 27 ghatikas. The Vidasa of Shani in the antardasa of Shani during the major period of Rahu is for five months, twelve days and 27 ghatikas.

Similarly for Sukshma Dasa, multiply the vidasa period by the years of the lord of the sukshma dasa, and divide it by 120. Thus for Budha's Sukshma Dasa in Shani's Vidasha we get 162 days 27 ghatikas x 17 ÷ 120 = 23 days and 191/2 Vighatikas.

Simha is an inimical sign to Rahu and Karka to Ketu. Friendly sign for Rahu is Tula, and for Ketu it is Makara. Their neutral signs are Mesha, Dhanush, and Mina. They have the greatest strength when they are exalted. At other places we have to calculate their strength by the rule of three. In this we have also to consider the nature of the houses and their relation to these houses.

According to Phala Dīpika the benefic signs for Rahu are Vrishabha, Karka, Mesha, Vrischika and Kumbha; and for Ketu these are Mina, Kanya, Vrishabha and the second half of Dhanush. Their enemies are said to be the Sun, Moon, and Guru while Kuja is Neutral (4.5; 2.35). Rahu functions like Shani, and Ketu like Kuja (8.34). The Guru cannot be the foe of Ketu. Different opinions are given by different authorities.

Parasara and Jaimini make Kumbha the own house of Rahu, while Ketu's own house is Vrischika (Parasara 35.77).

One authority states that Rahu is exalted in Mithuna, has own house and mulatrikona in Kumbha. His exaltation degree is 20. Others say that the mula trikona is Kanya and his enemies are Ravi, Chandra, and Kuja.

Jaimini takes Ketu to be a benefic in certain contexts. This seems to be valid because Ketu is a Moksha Karaka. Then his friends are Ravi, Chandra, Kuja, and Guru. The others are the friends of Rahu.

The different views about their own houses, exaltation, and mulatrikona are tabulated for a proper study and investigation by those interested.

6. Chamatkara Chintamani (a) Rahu Shani, Budha, Shukra (b) Ketu Ravi, Chandra, Kuja

In our own view based on five decades of experience, Rahu's own house is Kumbha, exaltation is on 20° of Mithuna, and mula trikona is Vrishabha. Ketu's own house is Vrischika, exaltation is on 6° of Dhanush, and mula trikona is Vrischika.

Guru with Rahu causes a Chandala yoga. Guru with Ketu gives Jnana and Moksha if situated in a favourable place. We associate Ketu with the friends Sun, Moon, Mars and Jupiter. The readers are requested to investigate further.

Notes

This verse gives the exceptions proved by the examples given under the previous verse. Consider chart 109. Here both Shani and Shukra are benefics. Shani is debilitated and aspects Shukra who is in his own house. Shukra is not combust. He inherited a huge property, a Press having a daily, a weekly and a monthly from his father-in-law in the major period of Shukra. One owns the eighth house and the other is aspected by the lord of the sixth. The principle is sound.

Sun at the time of birth. The Sun was in Makara on 8°.10'.3". He returned to that position on January 22, 1989 at 3.50 A.M. The chart for that time is chart 111. The Moon is in Pushyami. Counting from the natal star Sravana, it is the fourteenth. Dividing it by nine we get the remainder five. In the serial order the fifth is Guru who is given 48 days. Out of 800 minutes for each star, the Moon has to traverse 488 minutes because Pushyami ends at 16°.40'. The balance of Guru's period at the beginning of the year is 29 days. In the Sapta varga strength the planets and lagna are like thus: Lagna 2.375, Rahu 1.875, Kuja 2.25, Budha 1.92, Chandra 1.847, Sun 1.438, Shukra 1.28, Guru .938 and Shani .594. Guru and Shani are the weakest ones. The periods of Guru, Shukra and Shani were over on April 21. Rahu and Lagna periods were completed by May 6. Chandra in the ninth sign, but in the eighth bhava, had his period from August 24 to October 23. This was a period of ill health in the family. Shani as lord of 3 and 4 is with Shukra, lord of 7 and 12. Shukra's period ended on April 17 and he created quarrels and misunderstandings with his brothers. Kuja in the fifth Bhava has to give benefic results (from October 23 to November 24) and he did not. This method is simpler than the Tajaka one. Dr. Raman and Mr. Lahiri have given tables for the annual solar return. These tables are not to be accepted blindly. They have to be verified by calculating the exact time when the Sun returns to the natal position. The day of return coincides with the date of the Christian calender. Lahiri's tables give the solar return for 1989 at H 3.38.9 A.M. Actual calculation gives H 3.49.44 A.M.

प्राग्वललग्नपकार्यौ शुभखगैः सुप्रस्थानगौ चेष्टमथो दृष्टौ तौ तु कदाचिद्विलग्नता वृद्धसाधिकारकार्यात् । भावं भावपतिं च कारकमीहालोच्य तत्तादृशं पूर्वोक्ताविधान्तः फलं तु कथयेद्वा मध्यवर्तीशशात् ॥ ९९ ॥

Note whether the lords of the lagna and the bhava indicating the object of the question are benefic, whether they are in benefic houses, and whether they mutually aspect each other described earlier (Chapter 2, verses 18 to 20). The orb of the aspect is not beyond twelve degrees. Then the astrologer can predict the fulfilment of the object on the basis of the strength, benefic nature and the like referred to above, of the two planets. Proper attention should be paid to the nature of the aspect as explained in Chapter 4 and verse 33. The strength of the significator should also be considered. Then alone one should give the prediction.

If there is any planet between the two lords referred to above, and if it has an applying aspect within twelve degreess with either of the two, one may predict on the basis of that planet the nature, functions, and the like ascribed to the planet in the fifth Chapter. The time when the matter will be accomplished is to be made on the basis of Sloka 18 of this Chapter.

Notes

The author has briefly explained how one can determine the results of the question asked. Here he refers to the applying aspect. A planet at three degrees of a sign aspecting another on eleven degrees has an applying aspect. If the aspecting planet is on twenty degrees it has a separating aspect.

rating aspect.

The lord of the lagna and the lord of the action must have an applying aspect. This is from the houses 1, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 10 from their positions. Then there is the successful result. If there is a separating aspect, the good results may not follow. The orb of the aspect is twelve degrees. If the range is zero, the result has taken place at the time of question. If it is within twelve degrees, the result comes quickly. If it is beyond twelve degrees, the result may take a long time.

If there is a planet between the two and has an applying aspect, the result comes easily, but through a middleman. The nature of this planet indicates the caste, colour, and age of the person who helps.

Kuja at 3°.25' of Tula aspects the Sun in Makara on 8°.10'. The Chandra on 19°.44' is conjunct the Sun. The aspect of Mars on the Moon comes via the Sun. Such aspects also are to be taken into consideration.

For horary astrology one has to go into greater details. These can be had from works like the Prasna Tantra and Prasna Marga. All these have to be studied carefully before answering queries. The present author has indicated only a few guidelines.

There are some special predictions to be made for a child born when the Moon is in Aslesha or Magha. Each constellation has four quarters (Padas, charanas). For the four quarters of Aslesha the results are respectively (i) destruction of wealth, (ii) loss of brother, (iii) death of the mother, and (iv) death of the father. If one is born at the very end of Aslesha, the child may die. To prevent this danger one should propitiate Rudra, Kala, Antaka and Mrityu.

If the birth is when the Moon is in Magha, the results are opposite to those given for Aslesha.

This is too sweeping a statement. There are many born in Aslesha, and yet the adverse results did not appear.

We give the method accepted by the authorities on Dharma Shastra. Divide the total duration of Aslesha into 5, 7, 2, 3, 4, 8, 11, 6, 9 and 5 ghatikas, when its total duration is sixty ghatikas. Each ghatika equals 24 minutes. When its duration is more or less than 60 ghatikas, calculate accordingly. These ten parts in the sequence give kingdom, loss of father, loss of mother, sex enjoyment, devotion to father, strength, cruelty, renunciation, enjoyment and wealth. The first quarter of Aslesha is good. The second quarter gives loss of wealth. The third is bad for the mother, and the fourth for the father. The last quarter is bad for the father-in law. The first quarter of Magha is bad for the new-born.

The effects are the same if one is born when the Moon is in Jyeshtha, Mula, Revati and Asvini. The last degrees of Aslesha, Jyeshtha and Revati, and the first degrees of Magha, Mula and Asvini are called gandanta (critical) nakshatras. They provide vulnerable points and they can bring about the death of the child. If the child happens to

survive it will be a great emperor or ruler and have unequal-led valour.

Revati and Asvini, Aslesha and Magha, Jyeshtha and Mula are gandanta nakshatras. They appear at the critical junctures of two signs each.

The duration of Jyeshtha is to be divided into ten equal parts. These parts denote respectively deaths of the maternal grandmother, the maternal grandfather, the maternal uncle, mother, itself, collaterals (gotra-ja), the families of both parents, elder brother or sister, father in law, and everything.

A boy born in Jyeshtha destroys his elder brother and a girl her husband's elder brother. The last quarter destroys the child and its father. These readings have to be modified and carefully considered. They are intended to compel the parents to perform Shanti.

The first quarter of Mula is dangerous to the father, the second to the mother, the third to the wealth, and the fourth to the family. Some wise men have ascribed no defect to the fourth quarter.

The ghatikas before and after Mula started is called Abhukta Mula. This is highly dangerous.

The first quarter of Asvini and the last quarter of Revati are dangerous.

Asvini, Magha and Mula are the starting points of three signs. Aslesha, Jyeshtha and Revati are closing points of three signs. Thus these six stars represent nakshatrantarala and also Rasi antarala. Hence the birth in these constellations requires the performance of major Shantis.

Now the author explains about a new box. Multiply the length of box by its breadth in terms of inches and yavas. Divide it by nine. The nine parts refer to the nine planets from the Sun to Saturn (in order of the week days), followed by Rahu and Ketu. If the concerned remainder refers to a benefic, the result is good. Otherwise, it is bad.

Notes

One inch (angula) has eight yavas.

for the father, he should also do the same for his maternal grandfather. By omitting him, he would have the sin of patricide. The ordained annual ceremony must also be performed for the wives of the fore-fathers separately. There are three kinds of Shraddhas—Vriddhi, Gaya, and Ashtaka. It is the duty of a person to perform these three Shraddhas and other religious rites addressed to the gods. When the Shraddha is done at home, the wife should hand over to him.

Notes

Shraddha is a rite performed on the lunar day every year of the original demise. This rite can be parvana or Ekoddishta. The ceremony of offering Pindas to the great-grand-father, grand father, and father, and to mother, her mother-in-law, and to the mother-in-law of this mother-in-law, is called Parvana. The one done to the father or mother alone is Ekoddishta. This has three forms—Nitya or daily, naimittika or conditional as in Mahalaya fortnight (dark fortnight of Bhadrapada) and kamya or optional or depending on the desire or intention. The Vriddhi Shraddha is performed when a son is born. The tarpanas to the dead are given on every new moon day, and on the Makara and Karkataka ingresses (Sankranti) of the Sun.

जन्मप्येष्ठचयमथोदरे निपतनं रेतोनिपेक्षक्रमा- वाह्याद् पृथक् न तु पश्यति पिता म येष्टु इत्यच्यते। त्रीण्येप्टचः परिवर्जनीयमथ तद्येष्ठं द्वयं मङ्गलं रङ्गण्यार्तव शोधनं त्वितरयोः स्पष्टयावगाहः कृतेः॥ ९८॥

Between the twins the elder one is determined by the order of the semen falling in the womb. The face seen by the father first is the elder one.

Trijyeshtha (Three Jyeshthas) is to be avoided, the marriage of the eldest son or daughter in the lunar month of Jyeshtha, the child born when the Moon is in the constellation of Jyeshtha and the eldest son or daughter form the three Jyeshthas. The marriage of such a child should not be performed in the lunar month of Jyeshtha.

Likewise any auspicious rite, upanayana or marriage, should not be performed when two of these Jyeshthas operate (eldest, natal constellation and month). The lunar month of Jyeshtha is not allowed.

If there are two auspicious ceremonies in the family for a brother and sister, or for brothers or sisters, there should be an interval of two months. As far as the others are concerned, the functions are allowed after a purificatory bath.

Notes

Traditionally two auspicious functions are allowed in a year only after the new lunar year begins. Moreover, a marriage can take place after upanayana (sacred thread and initiation into Gayatri). But Upanayana should not come after a marriage ceremony.

Regarding twins, the one born after the first is the elder one.

स्वोदर्यो दुहितुसुतस्ववनिताक्षेत्रोद्भवः क्षेत्रजः कानीनश्च पुनर्भूवोदपि तनयो दत्तः ऋयात्कृत्रिमः। दत्तात्मापि सहोढगृहतनयो तत्प्रतिदत्तः ऋमात् पुत्रा द्वादश तत्र दत्तजनितावये निषिद्धाः कलौ॥ ९९॥

Sons are of twelve kinds: (1) one's own coborn; (2) son of the daughter; (3) one born of his wife by another; (4) one born of an unmarried girl; (5) one born of a woman who is remarried; (6) one given away in adoption; (7) one bought from the parents; (8) one treated as a son because of his good qualities; (9) one who comes to another as a son because he is an orphan or abandoned by his parents; (10) the son of a woman pregnant before marriage; (11) one born secretly of the wife of another; and whose identity cannot be determined; (12) one abandoned by its parent or parents and is brought up by another. Of these twelve, only one and six are approved. The rest are not allowed in kaliyuga.

Notes

Kalyaṇa Varma's Saraṇāli gives a detailed account of these and other kinds of children. See Chapter 34.26 to 38.

In this Chapter after the twenty second verse the author has strayed into problems that he has touched upon earlier.

Text Book of SCIENTIFIC HINDU ASTROLOGY -Prof. P.S. Sastri For many years there has been a persistent demand for an up to date comprehensive text-book of Astrology based on scientific treatment of the subject. This book is complete in itself, includes every aspect of Astrology and does away with the necessity of purchasing any additional volume as text book. The present work in the beginning emphasises on relation of Astrology to science and philosophy and thus establishes the validity of Astrology. There is added stress on the importance of aspects and value of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto in modern times as new horizons have evolved in the fields of employment and social values. The work includes exhaustive chapters on longevity determination, scientific determination of bhavas, principles of judgement, Yogas, Astro medical diagnosis, Transits, Ashtaka Varga and elements of Jaimini System. A number of example horoscopes confirm the validity of the principles especially in chapters on professions and diseases. The sanctity and intrinsic character of Hindu Astrology has been maintained through out which makes the book equally indispensable for the beginners as well as scholars of Astrology. Worthy work on Hindu Predictive Astrology Over 950 big size pages. Deluxe Rs. 800/- 2 Volume Set Rs. 500 /- RANJAN PUBLICATIONS website:www.ranjanbooks.co.in email :[email protected]
