Fundamentals of studying a chart

Planets position, strength, placement, vargas, dignity, argala, etc - indicate their power and ability
to act.

Drishti, Yogas, Arudha combinations - indicate - priorities and inclination to act.

Dasas, transits, AshtakaVargas indicate the timing when they will act

Ashtak Varga is much more than a timing tool. A really powerful utilization of Ashtaka Varga will give
youperspective at 4 levels

Inherent potential of Chart

Identifies flash point

Map critical points like sadhe dati

gandanta

The higher the cumulative no. of benefic points in any sign postulated by the position of a planet, the
larger its capacity to influence the result.

Ashtakavarga operates efficiently even if accurate time not available as long as planets in isgns dont
change.

The earthy, firey, watery, have a way of purifying the calculations, which is done for the planets and
signs except Sun,Moon, Leo, Cancer as the other houses are all owned by planets which more than
own house. There is planet multiplier, there is a sign multiplier and the final distilled product.

This composite information is often seen in Sarva CHam CHakra.

Ashtakavarga can be used in all varga charts, horary charts, medical astrology etc.

In a scence, 337 Bindus are distribute in 12 signs, there avg is 28.

27 or more Bindus gives positive results

21 or low gives bad signifations of the house.

30 or more powerful.
If in the 9th,10,11 Houses, if 30 bindus or more, native lives prosporous life, Material Happines,
particularly if the 11 H has more bindus than the 12th

It 11 > 10, indicated higher revenue with less efforts.

If houses have 21,20,19, they will be afflicated in some way or other. The art of analysis lies in
pinpointing where where that impact will happen either on the positive side or negative side

Please be careful in predicting dire consequences in charts only on the basis of higher or lower bindus

Without considering the context of whole chart.

For eg. 12 House with higher Bindus could also indicate forign income

Combination with experience - all people who have immigrated in other countries will have an
disturbed4th houes in one or all of the three - Rasi, Navamsha, and Chaturthamsa and strong bindu in
12H means foreign icome, import/ export.

If sign x has higher bindus than previous sign, the native sould see a certain rise in fortune in
specific career. And vice-versa

When a planet transiting to a avg or higher bindus house it will push up and strengthen the
factors of that house, particulay if it is yoga subhapati, karta kewala yogic contribute in some way.

Subhapati is relevant because if it is dispoditor of moon, it will give tremendous mental strength
and affinity. For eg. If Jupiter is the dispositor of moon, he is subhapati, if it also becomes a major
yogada, or raj yogakaraka and is passing through a house with high bindus where it ha also
contributed high bindus, significance of that house during dasha period and transit will improve.

If planet in good bindus, navamsha and falling in adhi mitra nakshatra, planet will give
extremely powerful results

On the other hand, in house/varga with low bindus in vipat or pat star its going to be adverse.

Understaqnding the 4 levels of Dharma,artha,kama,moksha,

Dharma in simplicity reflects essence of natal chart, sedd from which we are born,
releasefrom previous life. Lagna provides expression to the seed by giving a self, character,
personality. The inherent tendencies create a mental attitude, thinking process( Chintadhara ) which
is individualistic. This ts the prakash of the expresion.

The 5th h reflects the parinati( fruit) which accrues of evoloves/ culmination of the natices inherent
abilities. We have the three triplicities ( D A K M ).

If you take the total SAV Bindus of 1,5,9 - it is known as Bandhus

2,6,10 - Sewak

3,7,11 - poshak

4,8,12 - ghatak
Native tends to be in independent business and self- employed, if Bandhu combination has higher
bindus than Sewak, Vice- versa for salary in service

Higher Bindus in Poshak than ghatak - better material prosperity and wealth.

Relative analysis is necessary.

If someone has almost equal no of bindus/ high in both sewak and bandhus, the native will have
service as well as side business.

More Bindus in Poshak will give prosperity, Ghatak will put you under economic pressure.

When doing this analyiss, dont just take the reference point as lagna,

When say 11 H, it may be from any house such as Al, KL, 3rd H.

From the Ascendent, 11H refers to all round personal physical efforts and benfits

From the moon , 11h will be mental efforts and satisfaction.

From the sun, Govt, Boss, Superior, Godfather support, etc

From Saturn , merited support from public and public institutions.

Dasha of the house lords can be used for timing of events. 11 from Dasha Lors/ antardasha etc.

Arudha lagna is a powerful tool in Jaimini system. It is the percieved image.

In a charts basic three cherts - Asc , Karak lagna ( what your soul wants to do ) and Arudha Lagna
( what u show to the outside world)

So 11, 9 form Arudha Lagna will deal with the perceived image you want to postulate in society

Upapada lagna deals with wife and marital affairs.

Shri lagna/ indu lagna deals with financial prosperity.

And very important, the maximum bindus a planet can contribute is 8, suppose mars contributed 8
in a signs. 8 bindus outstanding results. 7 bindus excelllent, superior, 6 bindus, fortunate, 5
auspicious , 4 avergae- favourable, 3 mediocore , 2 poor, 1 very unfortunate, 0 seriously problematic

Suppoes, many planets are simultaneusly transiting a house with 30 + bindus, the good significations
will be enhanced. Vice verse - radically affect the significations of the house.
A Kaksha Is a 8 fold split of a sign. It is the most significant fine tuning tool outside vargas. If we can
use them in tandents with the vargas, we can get extremely powerful facets. These kaskhas are ruled
simulatneouly Sat, Jup, Mars, Sun, Ven, Merc, Moon, Asc. If we can integrate kaksha in prediction it
will increase your accuracy and hit rate phenominally.

Kendra - kona integration. Not only the kakshas which are housing the Rajayoga contributing planets.

The 4 types of raj yoga - conjuction, mutual aspects, parivartan yoga, ekata drishti

Jaimini Rajyogas also include.

Pushkaramsa / Vargottama Navamsha Very powerful.

Gandanta points(!st navamsa and last navamsa of firey and watery signs) are supposed to be linked to
naval of Vishnu. Planets or placements in these points of 1-2 degrees either way - give curious to
dynamic results, it swings either way.

If you find asthakavarga aligned with vargottama navama, please take extra care to note that on a
chart, it will give some benefit or the other. And there are these nakshatra padas vargotama, vvargsa,
there are subtle to very direct levels of empathy that you should keep in the prediction matrix.

Key to finely timing predictions using astakavarga lies in examining the insights through this interplay.
The transit tends to excute the benefic or malefic potential lying in tere and which works in tanden
with the various timing cycles.
