INTRODUCTION
"Hora Makarand'- seems to have been penned by the author
with a view to synthesizing views of various earlier writers ranging
from Parashara to Satyacharya and Varahamihira Needless to
mention that in the historical chronology of writers on astrology,
Varahamihira is most authentic and presents a both platform for
further research and allows modifications of interpretations to suit
the contemporary terms. And this text should be seen as another
further step in this direction initiated by Varahamihira.
The text does present some very original and useful views for
use of divisional charts, ashtakvarga, and span of life besides
offering rare clues on natal, horary and transit horoscopes.
To sum up, it would not only help evaluate the status of Indian
astrology as it existed a few centunes ago but would also introduce
some new concepts insights and observations valuable and useful,
both for the researcher, or scholar the student.
The very human touch makes things imperfect. And so is this
translation of Mine. Please do not hesitate to help me improve it
further by pointing out improvements to the publ ishers but for whose
efforts this book would not have seen the light of the day.
The text of Horamakarand is of great value to the scholars of
astrology as well as to the students as it has been composed after
studying the work of great sages.

Preface
HORAMAKARAND
Pet the rising Sun looking like a glittering snake hood on the eastern
mountain or like a tender leaf on a day tree or a Lotus In the skylake gives us power of speech.
/ /1 / /
Let the Goddess Bharati ( Saraswati) who looks like a garland of whit flowers and who herself is a science and who looks
amongst the shcolars like a female swan in the lake known as
Manssarovar, get success. Similarly the Sun and the other planets
in the constellation and also the Lotus feat of my holy teacher get
success.

li
Though I have composed this (Hora Makarand) afterstudying carefully the various subjects in the astrological works of the sages like
Badarayan. Vashistha, Parashara, etc. with my scantier understanding, the credit of it goes to those sages.
11211
There is no one else other than astrologer who can read, with the
help of the principles of astrology, as to what has been written by
the god almighty on the forehead of a man, //8//
This astrology illuminates the good or bad deeds of the past births
with the help of Dasha system of the planets like Sun, chronologically,
just like things in the dark become visible in the light of a
lamp
//9//
Some sages think that the word "Hora" is derived from the word
"Ahoratra" by dropping the first alphabet "A" and the last alpha-
bet "Tra". Some other sages think that the point between the
horizen and ecliptic is "Hora". While some other think that one half
of
the
sign
is
"Hora".

Strength of Planets in Signs
The Lord ofthe six signs from Leo in sequence is Sun and the Lord
ofthe six signs from Cancer in reverse is Moon, The planets In the
signs owned by the Sun get strength while the planets in the signs
owned by the Moon become soft (without strength),
//4//
The Signs 01 Sun and Moon.
After observing the brave nature of the sign Leo the Sun owned it
and due to his watery nature the Moon owned the watery signCancer (which is also nearer to Leo).
Commentary The Sun shines with splendour In the sky during
the day time and the sign Leo is also dignified and bright one. This
is the reason why Sun owned Leo. Similarlyjust like Sun shines
during the day time the Moon shines in the sky like a king at night.
The sign Cancerthough watery, is aiso royal and, therefore Moon
owned it. On this basis it can be said that the signs Leo and Cancer
are brave and roval.

Taurus is the Mooltrikona sign of Moon Leo is 4th sign firm Taurus and therefore its lord Sun is a friend of Moon. The 2nd and 5th

Mercury becomes a friend of Moon. 7th and !2th signs from Taunts are Scorpio and Aries, Mars being the lord of 12th house foam
Taurus becomes a friend of Moon while being the lord of the 7th
house becomes his enemy, Thus Mars becomes neutral to Moon.
The Sth and 1 1th signs from Taurus are Sagittarius and Pisces,
Jupiter being the lord oftheSth house becomes a friend of Moon
while being the lord of 11 th house becomes his enemy. Thus Jupiter becomes neutral to Moon. Similarly, the 6th sign firm Taurus is

In the Dirth chart, ifthe malefic planets are very strong and the
hcnifics are very weak and (the important planets) Saturn and
Mercury are in quadrant (kendra) or in the ascendent or aspecting
the ascendent the birth should be declared as non-human birth
The Moon occupying the dwadashamslia denotes the species of

ON CONCEPTION ETC
Mars and Monn are the cause fix bringing about monthly course in
women. When in the ease of women, if Moon occupies Apachaya
houses (i.e. I st,2nd 4th.5th. 7th, 8th. 9th and 12th) from her natal
Moon and is aspected by Mars in transit the period of menses starts
and she becomes capable of conceiving, olherw ise the menses are
considered fruitless.
In such a case, if the husband has a Moon in his Upachaya houses
(i.e. 3rd. 6th. 1 Oth and 11 th) from his natal Moon and is aspected by
Jupiter, the union ofa husband and wife brings about a pregnancy.
I f. how ever, the Moon is not aspected by any planet then union will
not take place.
/////
Commentary Ladies get menses after 12 years of age. The
above principle will be applicable after that age only. This principles should not be applied to children, old persons, persons with
diseases (stcrllejniptcnt) etc.
Moon is a watery planet and Mars is a fieiy planet. Due to their
aspects (Mare aspect on Moon) the bile in the blood of ladies gets
motion and the ladies net menses everv month.

Commentary In case of pregnancy or delivery, during day time
Sun should be treated as father, Venus - Mother, Saturn-uncle and
Moon aunt. In this way the relations ofchild arc indicted by these

Example Suppose a woman conceived in Aries ascendant and

Taurus, the sign Aries is hemmed between malefics (Papkartari);
Similarly if Moon is in the Gemini and Sun in the sign cancer, the
Moon and the ascendant are hemmed between two malefics and,
therefore, the woman conceived will die along with theembryo.
3rd Yoga for Woman's Death
I f at the time of birth malefic planets occupy the 4th house either
from Moon or from ascendant and the Mars in each case is located
in the 8th house or if Mars and the Sun occupy the 4th and the 12th
houses respectively and the Moon is weak, in all those three yogas,
the woman loses her life and the pregnancy.

Development of Embryo and Lords of Months
At the time of conception i.e. in the first month the nature of embryo is a mixure of seminal fluid and blood. In the second month
(this mixture), it gets solidity. In the 3rd month, it gets hands and

feet. In the tourth month, the bones are created. In the fifth month,
it gets skin, and in the sixth hair, in the seventh month, it gets movement and memory. In this process the embryo develops.
The lord in the first month of embryo is Venus, the second month is
Mars, the third month is Jupiter, the fourth month is Sun. the fifth
month is Moon, the sixth month is Saturn and the seventh month is
Mercury. These are the lords of the seven months from conception. II] 3//
Nourishment and Deterioration of Embryo
Ifthelord ofthe month from conception is powerful and is in exaltation, the embryo gets nourishment in that month and if the lord of
the month if afflicted by malefic, or is in debilitation or is hemmed
between two malefics or is combust, it results in abortion. II\AII
Commentary :- The lords are assigned to each month from conception. Ifthelord ofthe concerned month is afllictcd.the abortion
is likely in that month. If all the lords are powerful, the embryo get
proper nourishment.

The classification of span of life has been made by the old sages in
two diffeient categories. The first one is YOGODBHAV i.e. due

which is unsettled. The first one is divided Into four different sub
categories while the second one is divided into five different sub

'Ascertain the Rashiand Navamamsha occupied by {l)the Lord
ofthe8th house (i.e.64th Navamamsha), (2) Gulika. (3) Saturn or
(4) Lord of 22nd decanate (counted from the ascendant). When
Saturn transists that Rasi or Navamamsha or trangular position,
death may take place.
Find out the lord ofthe decanate that is rising and also the lord of
the 8th house and that of the 22nd decanate. When Jupiter transits
the Rasi or Amsha occupied by any of these three planets or its

The Sages predict the span of life as 30 years, ifthe benefic planet
is strong and is in the quadrant and if there is no planet in the 8th
house. However, if the benefic planets are aspecting the said benefic planet in the quadrant, the span of life would be 40 years.II9II
The native lives 100 years, if Jupiter is in the ascendant in the sign
Cancer and Venus is in the 4th, 7th or 1 Oth house. Similarly, if Jupiter is in his own sign and in his own decanate (i.e. in the sign Sagittarius or Pisces), the native lives for 77 years.

The native lives for 60 years, ifthe ascendant is occupied by full
Moon in the sign of his'exaitation and the benefic planets are in
their own sign. Similarly, if Jupiter is in the ascendant in exaltation
and the benefic planets are in the 5th and the Oth houses the native

years in respect of planets viz. Sun, Moon Mars, Mercury, Jupiter,
Venus and Saturn respectively. Full years may be taken, if the
planet is in deep exaltation and if the planet is in extreme debilitation half of the years may be taken.
If the planet is neither in deep exaltation nor in extreme debilitation
and is in between, the years may be calculated proportionately and
the Pindayu years of the planet may be arrived at. //I//

If themalefic planets are located in the 12th, 11 th 1 0th, 9th, 8th and
7th houses, the years of Pindayu being given by the concerned
planet may be reduced as follows :
(1) Full years for the planet in the 12th house,
(2)i.rd years for the planet in the 1 1th house,
(3) j-rd years for the planets in the 10th house,
(4) 1 th years for the planets in the 9th house,

(5)4-th years for the planets in the 8th house
(6)-^"th years for the planets in the 7th house.
Similarly, ifthe benefic planets are located in these houses, the
years to be reduced are \I2., 1/4, 1/6, 1/8, l/IOand 1/12 respectively, from the Pindayu.
In case any one of these six houses is occupied by two or more
than two planets, these malefics or benefics, only one of them, who
is the strongest, will lose years as malefic or benefic. This is the
opinion of Satyacharya. Similarly, Manittha Daivadnya has opined
to take mixed life span.

tfthe ascendant is occupied by a malefic planet, convert the ascendant into Kalas, multiply it by the years ofthe planet and then divide
the result by 21600. This result is to be deducted from the Pinda
years. In case the malefic planet in the ascendant is aspected by
the benefic planet then the half the result is to be deducted from
the Pindayu ofthe planet. This, however, is to be done in respect of

CHAPTER X
RULING AND SUB-RULING
PERIODS
The first ruling period in the Dasha system is that of cither ascendant or Moon or Sun who ever is the strongest amongst the three.
The next in order will be that of the planets in the quadrant trom the
Dasha lord, then will come the Dasha oftheplanets in the Panaphar
houses from the Dasha lord and then of the planets placed in the
Aapocleem houses from the Dasha lord. This is the order in this
Dasha system
In case there is no planet in the quadrant from the Ascendant or
Moon or Sun as stated earlier (for deciding Dasha lord) the second
Dasha that of the planets placed in Aapocleem houses should be
taken.
//I//
Dasha of Planet to be taken according to the calculated years only.
87
If in the quadrants etc. two or more than two planets are located,
the Dasha of the strong planet should be taken first; and in case
where the planets are ofequal merits the planet who has contributed greatest number of years to life will have the dasha first. When
the planets are of equal merits in both these createria, the one who
has risen first will have the precedence in the matter.
//3//
Antradasha
The planet located with the Dasha lord takes away half of the
period of theDasha lord as its sub period. A planet in the 5th or the
9th house from the Dasha lord has 1/3 rd oftheperiod of Dasha as
its sub period. A planet in the 7th house from the Dasha lord has
l/7th ofthe period of Dasha lord as its sub-period. A planet in the
4th or the 8th house from the Dasha lord has 1/4 th ofthe Dasha
lord's period as its sub-period. Thus the planets including the Ascendant lord have their sub-periods.
HAH
The strong planet alone gives the results of Aantar Dasha (i.e.
results of sub-period) when more than one planets are located in
one house,

How to calculate Sub-Periods '
Having determined the fractions of the main ruling period for the

be worked out as mentioned above. These will be their subperiods.

If the main or sub period of Moon is adverse, one feels lazy and
sleepy. He may lose wealth and honour. His own men may

The element fire is related to appearance and concerns eyes. Therefore, events related to eye sights will be in the Dasha of Mars or
Sun. The element Earth is related to smell and it is experienced
through nose, the planet involved is Mercury. Hence, when there is
usual contacts with good or bad smells, it should be understood that
the Dasha or sub-period of Mercury is running. The element of
sky is related to the hearing and when the disease relating to cars is
experienced, the Dasha or sub-period of Jupiter is deemed to be in
operation. The element of water is related to the taste which has
relevance to tongue (Mukha). During the period of having enjoyment of unusually good or bad food the Dasha of Moon or Venus
should be considered. The element of Air is related to the sense of
touch concerned with our skin. When events concerning disease of
skin or soft touch arc in evidence, it should be understood that the
Dasha or sub-period of Saturn is in operation. Thus if the lords out
of the five elements, are strong, they give good results in respect of
conditions related to that planet and if are weak, they create problems.//28//
Good or bad results of a Planet in the same Dasha

The articles indicated by the planets, the profession etc. and the
results created due to the occupation of houses by the planets or
their aspect will accrue in the Dasha or sub-period of the concerned planet.

The time of birth, in Ghatis, day, month, year should be added to the
year, month, day,.Ghatis, ofthe Dasha and after reviewing the horoscope with accurate ascendant and detailed planetary position, the
results of the Dasha may be predicted according to the principles

Inthe above manner, the old sages have given guidelines for prediction of good or bad results and the basis of the calculation of
strength of planets according to their position as exaltation
etc.
//m
The Sun and Mars in transit give good results immediately, the Jupiter and Venus give results in the middle period of transit, and the
Moon and Saturn give good results in the last portion of transit.
The Mercury gives results in the entire period of transit. //14//
The Sun is the ruler of head and face, the Moon is the ruler of
throat and Heart, the Mars is the ruler of chest and back side,
Mercury is the ruler of all joints and fingers, Jupiter is the ruler of
waist and thighs, the Venus is the ruler of genital organs and testicles and Saturn is the ruler of anus, lithe lords of the limbs as
mentioned above in the natal chart are occupying bad houses and
also re afflicted, there exists some trouble to the limbs and if they
arc occupying good houses and with benefic aspects etc., they give
good results, in the same way, the results may be assessed at the
time
of

and
for travel.
//I5,I6J7//
Commentary: The utility of Astakvarga system is important for
assessment of strength of planets and houses for the purpose of
predicting or anticipating important events of lifeand forecasting
the results in transit. This system is a part of predictive astrology
and has been given in almost ail important old books including
Brihat Parashar Hora Shastra. Itis a fact that in Gocharsystem,
the transit results are obtained with the help of thcsign occupied by
the Moon. Itis, however, a fact that in that case the ascendant is
altogether ignored. Thus the Gocharsystem is incomplete forob-

IJ at the time of birth tour planets viz., Sun, Mars. Jupiter and Saturn are all in their signs of exaltation in quadrant they form four
types ofRajayogas and out of them, if any three planets arc in

twelve Rajayogas. Thus in total there are 16Rajayogas. (According to Brihatjataka, one out of these four planets three-are in exaltation and one to be in the ascendant and the remaining planets may
be in other houses). Out of the above four planets, if any two of
them arc in exaltation and occupy quadrants and the Moon is located in the sign Cancer, twelve Rajayogas are formed and if out of
them one is in the ascendant or in the quadrant in exaltation and the
Moon is located in the sign Cancer, four types of Rajayogas are
formed. This makes the total 32 types q/'Raja-yogas. //I//

effects of the rays of planets
Number of Rays of Planets
When the Sun etc. are in their deep exaltation point, their Rays are
as under:Sun - 10, Moon -9, Mars - 5, Mercury -5, Jupiter - 7
Some sages consider Rays of Moon as 11. Not some but almost all
consider the Rays of theplanets as 7 each. I (Gunakar) consider it
appropriate to take Rays of planets as 7 each. //I//
Method to calculate rays.
The following is the method to be adopted for ascertaining the proportionate number of Ray s:Deduct the debilitation sign of the planet whose Rays are to be
ascertained, ftom the longitude (Spasta graha). In case the remainder is more than 6 Rashis (signs), then it should be deducted from
12 signs. The remainder should be multiplied by the number of the
Rays of that planet mentioned above (in the first stanza) and the
product should be divided by 6. The result will denote the number
ofthe Rays of that planet.
Effects
ofthe
Rays
of Planets
161
The Rays are nil when these planets are in their deep debilitation. '
ran
Example:Let us take the longitude of Sun (Spasta graha) as sign 10, degrees
5, Kalas 13 and Vikalas 32. Now let us find out the Rays of sun.
The deep debilitation point of Sun is 6-10-0000. If the longitude
oftheSun mentioned above is deducted firm this, the product will
be 8-4-46-28. This being more than 6 signs it should be further
deducted firm 12 signs which comes to 3-25-13-32. Now let us
multiply this by 7 (Gunakar takes 7 Rays of each planets). The
product will be signs 26, degrees 26, Kalas 34, and Viakalas 44,
Now let us devide this product by 6. The resultant 4-24-2547 are
the Rays ofthe Sun. In the same manner Rays ofthe other planets
may be calculated.
Commentary; Parashar has given the number of Rays as mentioned in stanza one. However, the total number of Rays given in
all the classical books is 49. Acharya Manindha has expressed importance of these Rays and maintains, like Parashar. Maya,
Badarayana that the Rays should be taken as mentioned in stanza
one. However, as mentioned above by Gunakar. Kalyanavarma
and others are of theopinion that these Rays should be taken 7 for
each of the planets. The Rays may therefore, be calculated as
explained in the above example.

his brothers; of five, the native is a head of Mandal (i.e. group of
people); of six, the native is commander ofthearmy and if seven,
the native becomes a king (gets a status ofa king).
Exaltation and debilitation
In the horoscope, if there is one planet in exaltation and is aspected
by its friend, the native becomes a king (i.e. gets a status ofaking),
wealthy and has many friends. One can imagine, if more than one
planets are in exaltation with aspects oftheir friendly planets to
what greater extent they will be fruitful to the native,
if in the horoscope, the planets are in their debilitation or in the
houses oftheir enemies, the native becomes poor, devoid of all
comforts, arrogant, diseased, sinful and is always in pain and leads
a painful life in imprisonment.
Commentary: It is necessary to consider the position of planets in
Navamamshas while considering the results of the planets in exaltation or in debilitation. It is also necessary to consider the

The astrologers consider male and female equal for the purpose of
prediction on the basis of birth chart and tell them the results accordingly. Some of theresults which a woman cannot enjoy by or
for herself should therefore, be attributed to her husband. Anything about her husband is to be derived from the 7th house of her
birth chart. From the 8th house in her horoscope, the death of her
husband should be predicted. From an Ascendant and the Moon in
the horoscope of the female, the physical happiness she may get
firm her husband should be predicted.

If the sign in the Ascendant and that occupied by the Moon are

It is a fact that Tnmshamshas are required to be examined carefully. The order of Trimshamsha in odd signs is Aries, Capricorn,
Sagittarius. Gemini and Taums while in the even signs it is Libra,
Virgo, Pisces, Aquarius and Scorpio. It is not only the lord of
Trimshamsha sign has to be considered, but we have also to examine the concerned signs owned by them. Moreover, for the purpose of prediction many other points are required to be considered
and therefore, these rules should never be applied blindly.
Before prediction the strength of the Ascendant and the Moon is
required to be ascertained. Moreover, if the Ascendant is in one
Trimshamsha and the Moon in another, the results have to be modified. Sage Parashara is of the view that the Sun horoscope also
should be considered along with these other two and therefore, has
given Sudarahana Chakra system in Parashan. The other points
which need special attention are the consideration of the 5th and
7th houses, their lords, their placements and their mutual relationships. The results of thcTrimshasha may therefore, be modified
after taking into consideration all these points.

CHAPTER XXXI
UNKNOWN (LOST) HOROSCOPES
Iftheperson does not know his iime of birth or the lime of his
conception the Ascendant has to be decided as per the Ascendant
rising at the lime of query. The birth should be considered in
Uttarayana, if the first hora rises and in Dakshinayana, if the second hora rises.
II] II
Commentary : Uttarayana is the period from the entry of the Sun
in the sign Capricorn till his departure from the sign Gemini. The
remaining period of six months is Dakshinayana.
215
It Rim (season) does not come in the concerned Ayana, they should
be taken alternately i.e., for Varsha, Vasant Ritu should be taken;
for Sharad, Grishma Rjtu should be taken and for Hemant, Shishir
Ritu should be taken and vice versa.
112 & "ill
Commentary :There are six Ritu in a year and two months in one
Ritu which are as follows;
Vasant
Chaitra and Vaishakah
(Spring)
Grishma
Jyeshtha and Ashadha
(Summer)
Varsha
Shravana and Bhadrapada
(Rains)
Sharada
Ashvina and Kartika
(Autumn)
Hemanta
Margasira and Pausha
(Autumn)
Shishira
Magha and Phalguna
(Winter)
There are two months in one Ritu. If the Ascendant at the time of
query is in the first decanate, the first month of thcRitu should be
taken. If it is in the second dec ante, the second month should be
taken and if is in the third decanate, it should be divided into two
sections and then the month should be decided accordingly.
Some are of the opinion that Tithi should be considered on the basis
ofthe degrees of the Sun. If the Ascendant is indicative ofthe
night, the birth should be considered to be in day time and if it is
indicative of day, the birth should be considered to be in the
night. The time should be considered by the difference of 10 degrees.

friat basis, the position of the Moon should be found out; or some
say that the powerful amongst the Ascendant, 5th house, and the
9th house is the sign indicative ofthe Moon.
Note the distance from the Ascendant at the time of query to the
sign occupied by the Moon. The position ofthe Moon wil I be in that
sign which will be equal to that number (ofthesign). IftheMoon
is in the sign Pisces, the Moon wi 11 be in that sign at the time of
birth. On the basis of the articles of food, figures (of animal) and
sounds at the time of query can also determine the position ofthe
Moon that might be at the time of birth ofthe quarist. //6 & HI
ffthe Ascendant at the time of query is in the even sign from the
sign occupied by the Sun, the birth is in the latter period (in six
signs) and if it is in the odd sign, the birth is in the earlier period (in
six signs) and each sign should be considered to be of five degrees.

The Ascendant must be multiplied as mentioned above by multiplier of signs as well as planets after converting Ascendant into
Ghatika. The results thereafter, must again be multiplied by seven
and divided by 27. The remainder is the star at the time of birth.
This when divided by 9 we get Ista Ghati and Pala. Similarly, the
year, month etc. can be found out by their own multipliers and divisors.

Hora Makarana
To find out year, Ritu, month etc. the Ascendant at the time query
should be multiplied by 10; if multiplied by 8 then we can get fortnight and Tithis. If multiplied by 7, we can get day and night and
star and for obtaining Ista Ghati etc. or Ascendant, it should be
multiplied by 5.
//I All
Note the letters (Syllables) of thereal name of thequerist. Multiply it by two and add to it by Chayangulas then we get the time
Further, divide it by 27 and count the remainder; the result is the
birth constellation (Nakshatra).
