Chandrashekhar’s Comments: The first line is not clear. The second line is translated as above and I
have said tens of thousand gold coins as it was the unit of wealth in the era when the text was written.

When the lord of the 10th occupies the 6th bhava of Navamsha chart the Jataka born in Sumati NāDi
or amsha is endowed with brothers and sisters, for one born in Chara Lagna.
Chandrashekhar’s Comments: The first word of the shloka is not legible so I am not very sure of this
yoga. It is possible that the 10th being 8th from the 3rd, its position in the 6th bhava of Navamsha chart
gives life to siblings due to vipareeta principles. For Chara lagna the 10th lord will also own chara rasi
and its position in 6th amsha may carry strength to the life of the siblings as 6th is square to 3rd. I leave
it to the learned to unravel this mystery.

When the Lord of lagna occupies a Kendra in aspect or conjunction of Guru from Lagna the Jataka
will be bereft of wife but will have a brother younger to himself.
Chandrashekhar’s Comments: For a Chara Lagna Guru owns 12th or 6th bhava besides other bhavas and
this seems to be the reason that his aspect of the 7th (he can only aspect one Kendra which is the 7th),
seems to take away the wife of the Jataka when the Lagna lord occupies the 7th. Its being in 11th from
the 3rd seems to give strength to the 3rd bhava of brothers and more particularly younger brothers.

---------------------- devasyavivarjite ||
Chandrashekhar’s Comments: The words in the shloka are too few to make any sense out of them. It is
perhaps pointing out that the Jataka will not have younger brother-in-law for Sumati Amsha Jataka in
certain situation.

The jataka born in the later half of the Sumati amsha, is born in a hill station to the north of his
mother’s house or in the mother’s house (apparently in the house of his maternal grand father).

The mother may have some health issues at the time of delivery but will get protection if Chandra and
Ravi occupy the 4th bhava (for jataka born in Mesha lagna).
Chandrashekhar’s Comments: The missing words do make translation difficult. I have translated as
above as the partial shloka indicates problems to Mother during delivery but protection if Chandra and
Ravi occupy some bhava. I think the bhava to be occupied will have to be 4th where Ravi will certainly
cause problem to the mother during the Jataka’s birth and Chandra the Karaka for 4th with digbala in
the 4th will, yet, protect the mother. I would think this will be more prominently experienced in Mesha
lagna when Chandra will also own the 4th bhava.
The shloka next to the above is completely blank and hence not reproduced.

Especially in 5th year or thereabouts.
Chandrashekhar’s Comments: Being incomplete shloka it is difficult to decipher this. Personally I think
this is indicating some health issues to the father of the Jataka in his 5th year as progressing Surya one
year per bhava it will be in the 8th which is the 12th to 9th the bhava indicating father.

Either in the dasha (of Ravi) or at the 10th year of age there will be troubles to mother. To ward of
these troubles one should donate clothes to an astrologer.
Chandrashekhar’s Comments: There is, perhaps, something more in the method of warding off the
dosha, since we have only half the line of the second part of the shloka. It could be offering worship to
Ravi (Sun), as he is lord of the 2nd to 4th bhava for Mesha lagna and so a Maraka.

In case of the jataka born in the first half of Sumati nadi, the affliction to Chandra does not manifest.
When the 10th lord occupies Lagna and the 8th lord occupies a Kendra ……….
Chandrashekhar’s Comments: I think the Randhresha (8th lord position should be in any kendra other
than the 4th as the 10th lord (for Mesha lagna Saturn, in Lagna, will be mutually aspecting the 8th Lord
592
Mangala, thus both their malfeasance would be reduced and the affliction to Chandra will be under
control.

One born at the end of Sumati nadi will be happy when the rising rasi is Chara and the lord of the
lagna also occupies a Chara Rasi. When the 8th lord is in Sumati nadi…………
Chandrashekhar’s Comments: Here, though, the Jataka is born in the second half of the Sumati Nadi,
being born at the end of its span and having Chara lagna with the Lagnesha in Chara rasi, the learned
author says that he will be happy, implying not much problems to father and mother. For a Chara Rasi,
the lagnesha in Chara rasi means it will occupy a Kendra and thus get strength and this may be the
reason for the happiness of the Jataka or the happiness may be limited to his bodily health. This is so as
the next line, though incomplete is telling something about the position of the 8th lord in Sumati nadi
giving some results, which could relate to bodily health.

He lives for 70 years (say other authorities). However in my own opinion (Bhrigu’s) he lives through
the 70 years and dies at the age of 72.
Chandrashekhar’s Comments: Next page is absolutely illegible due to having been subject to water
damage. I am finding it more and more difficult to read the shlokas. Therefore, henceforth, I shall only
include the legible shlokas to avoid bringing out incomplete principles. I am sure the readers shall bear
with me.

Chandra, and Sumati Nadi.
Chandrashekhar’s Comments: This stanza being incomplete, I have tried to make as much sense as I
could out of this. If I am wrong, I am sure the learned will correct my mistakes. I think the Shanti or
propitiation should be of the graha ruling the ShashTyamsha occupied by the Lord of the rasi occupied
by Chandra.

Chandrashekhar’s Comments: It could also mean that besides the results given by Venus conjoining the
4th lord, if it is also conjunct Budha (Mercury) she will be of a religious bent of mind.

after due period due to good yogas.
Chandrashekhar’s Comments: The first word of the second line of shloka is not very legible. The shloka
could also mean he gets progeny after 5 years, but since when is not known so I have interpreted this to
mean that 5 siblings will have progeny. If the learned think there is some mistake in this logic, they
should correct.

Chandrashekhar’s Comments: The first word is not fully legible and that which I could read does not
make any sense to me. It could be adriSTashaali and yet I can not fathom the meaning. In the next line
after first word there is a gap of some words and they could be indicative of his being always busy in
studies, but not being certain, I have not given this probable meaning in the translated text.

If the 5th lord conjuncts Shukra he is very learned and intelligent. -----

Chandrashekhar’s Comments: I think that the meaning is that the 5th lord and Shukra alongwith Guru
in the 2nd will make him an expert in Pali language. If they (5th lord and Shukra) are placed else where,
he will be learned and intelligent, but may not be an expert in the Pali language. The next shloka also
suggests placement of 5th lord and Shukra in the 2nd being a requirement for Guru in the 2nd to give
expertise over another language as Shukra is connected with Poetry etc. especially when in 2nd. Lekhya
vidyaa could mean one who is able to write at good speed, much like a shorthand writing expert.

Chandrashekhar’s Comments: Matri or Pitrisukha includes long living mother or father, Matri means
mother and Pitri means father, living with them for long and having good relations with them. Any or
all of these can come under the sukha from father or mother. It could also indicate much happiness from
those who the Jataka considers equal to his mother or father depending on whose sukha (happiness) is
being talked about.

Chandrashekhar’s Comments: The word Neecha (Lowly) should not be taken literally. I think it only
indicates someone not of the Hindu religion and could also indicate some country towards south of
India, if we take Uccha to mean abaove and Neecha as below.

nothing is known or the year of publication or publisher.
From Hindi to English Shri Virendra Battu has done
the laborious task along with some notes. The reason to
bring out this non publicized work of Sage Parasara is
a) Most scholars on net forums do not know about it b)
Most scholars of India who read only English books
Virendra Battu is learned in Sanskrit, don’t know about it c) Most of us in the astrological
world think that Sage Parasara wrote only BPHS
assuming this work is of the Original Parasara c) this

Botany and a Diploma in Electronics. He is farmers no nation is a complete nation and astrologers
a professional Graphics artist, animator and today over-indulge in mundane astrology rather than
Farmers Astrology which in olden days was considered
does post production for films. His interest in by many as the real benefit of astrology to help all of
astrology started at the age of 43 when his mankind whose survival starts with food. Many of us
Ketu Mahadasa was coming to a close. A in the last 5 decades have come and gone without
soft spoken man and an extremely fast knowing anything about Farmers Astrology. As
farmers cannot pay good fees or accord fame to an
worker in astrology and is expected to leave astrologer and only politicians or businessmen can do so
his mark in translations. hence this form of astrology which the Sages felt most
important has been ignored since 1895 of English
astrological magazine publications. An old man once
mentioned that if some of you can take interest in this
science and do original research that helps farmers you
would be called in future the ‘Original Researcher of
the Original Astrology’. To bring the truth home lets
see the immortal yogi’s saying from the Last Book of
Astrology - ‘When you do jataka (individual) astrology
you are helping only one that is the Jataka (individual),
when you do mundane astrology in modern times you
are helping only yourself but when you do astrology of
the kissan (farmers) you are helping everyone, even
those who do not believe in astrology, you feed a nation
and that’s real karma.’]

Brief Introduction:
K rushiparashara or Krishiparashara is a compilation of original text in Sanskrit. The text deals

with meteorological aspects of general agriculture. The knowledge and techniques of farming
have always been a part and parcel of the Indian civilization. That the culture and civilization of
the Vedic Aryans were based on and centered on agriculture is fully borne out even by the oldest
portions of the Vedas. The importance of Indra, the rain god and the large number of prayers addressed
to him in the Rig Veda prove beyond doubt that the Vedic Aryans were agriculturists.
This treatise traces back the evolution of the agricultural science through the literary records to the time
of Kautilya (c. 400 BC), whose work, the Arthashastra, also imparts prominence to agriculture. The
name of Parashara appears in the ancient texts as an individual, as also an institution at different periods
of time and is related to different sciences like astronomy, astrology, medicine, agriculture, social rules
and code etc. We are told that, ‘two more aspects must be taken into account while discussing the
identity of the author: (i) Parashara also is a gotranama; i.e., a family name, it can be shared by several
individuals belonging to the Parashara clan; and (ii) in ancient India the followers of a certain school of
thought used the same name which was usually the name of the founder of that school. It is further
mentioned that, the book Krishi-Parashara in its present form must have been an abridged redaction of
the original work of Sage Parashara’.
The ancient texts have usually been constructed in verse and formula form known as Chhanda (meters),
which adhere to the rules of Sanskrit grammar for such construction. The text of Krishi-Parashara
consists of two hundred and forty-three verses mostly composed in the popular anustubh (Chhanda)
meter. Amongst the many kinds of meters differentiated by the number of syllables in the Sanskrit
language the anustubh meter is one in which there are 8 syllables in each pada (line) of a verse of 4 padas
(lines). This means there are a total number of 32 syllables in the entire verse.
This book is written for the benefit of farmers. Thus it is the theory of agriculture expounded in such a
manner that the farmers would benefit by its application to their profession. It is in a way a farmer’s
almanac containing astronomical and meteorological data arranged according to the seasons and months
of ancient India. It is the farmer’s ready reckoner containing the basic data of geographical and climatic
conditions, which can help him in planning and managing the activity of farming spread over several
months. This treatise includes observations on all the aspects of agriculture such as meteorological
observations relating to agriculture, management of agriculture, management of cattle, agricultural tools
and implements, seed collection and preservation, plowing and all the agricultural processes involved
right from preparing fields to harvesting and storage of crops. The religious aspect of the Indian psyche
is present here as well as the text begins with the salutations to Prajapati (Lord Brahma), the Lord of the
living, and ends with the prayer to the Goddess Laxmi, the Goddess of wealth and prosperity.
The treatise advocates a symbiotic relationship, organic farming techniques, crop management, holistic
farming, or rather sustainable use of available resources. All details of which strangely are given at
"Krishi Parashar". Our friends in west look to Indian knowledge for pesticides (like planting Neem trees
and spraying with cow urine) Bio-diversity (not planting one crop in field), a good set of flowers to
attract insects and bees for pollination, cow manure as fertilizers etc. will automatically bring the cost
down.
As India rediscovers its origins and roots there are well known milestones achieved even as of today by
using techniques mentioned in Krishi Parashara -
a) In Bizcomp2009 *1 Abhishek Bhati’s project (Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Mumbai) won the
second prize of Rs. 60,000/- !!

b) Using methods mentioned in Krishi Parashara and Vedas, Aryakrishak Shri Mohan Shankar Deshpande
has achieved much success. He mentions his methods and inventions on his website -

c) Some very elaborate methods on holistic farming techniques are also available on this website – a

The broad meaning of the above verse is – a farmer’s life is dependent on the living organisms in the
soil he cultivates. During the cultivation, some of these organisms get killed. Since his Dharma (primary
duty) is to produce food for the sustenance of the world, he gets absolved of the sinful deed of killing the
organisms.

This means – If the seed is in stick form; coat it with honey and ghee (clarified butter). If it is in bulb
form or with a hard cover, coat it with wet cow dung.
If there is a farmer amongst you, you will realize how difficult and impossible it is to implent above
sloka! However innovative farmers have implemented this technique in their own way and they were
rewarded with excellent results! Sounds interesting? Follow me readers and read each verse of Krishi
Parashara mentioned below. Maybe if you find it a little difficult; re-read the verse, understand its
meaning. Try some of the methods and hopefully you will be rewarded!! Share your results with us!! If
you are not a farmer still this knowledge will benefit it since in some verses you find apt meanings &
hidden rules for usage in normal astrology.

Sage Parashara begins Krishi Parashara with an obeisance to Lord Brahma (Prajapati) and with a prayer.
He does so for the benefit of farmers, whose profession of cultivation, is in Sage Parashara’s opinion, a
noble profession. Because by doing so, a farmer sustains the world and its creation. Countless creatures and
human beings are in need of sustenance!

Sage Parashara says that Brahmana’s [ÌuÉmÉëÈ] (Priestly class in Hindu culture) who are well versed in the
four Vedas and other Shastra’s (treatises), if they consider agriculture as a lowly profession, such
Brahmana’s will one day be reduced to a pauper and live a life of a mendicant.
Notes: Once upon a time Brahmana’s were considered as an upper caste or belonging to upper
hierarchy in Hindu society – who looked upon all others as that of lowly birth or profession.

Sage Parashara says – A person choosing a profession of farming will not be of want, dependent or
indulge in begging. Either this farmer will become an owner of much land [pÉÔmÉÌiÉÈ] or a king one day.
Notes: Even as of today property is always in demand and gives highest possible returns in terms
of investment. As population increases, land becomes scarce and even more expensive to obtain.

Sage Parashara says even though the rich or poor may accumulate wealth in terms of gold, silver, jewels
or costly clothes – these people are still dependent on a farmer to feed their hungry stomachs. These
people still keep a lookout for a farmer for regular supply of grains and farm produce.

Sage Parashara says that even though the rich may declare their status by displaying their wealth or
wearing nice clothes and jewels, without food or shortage of food, these people have to sell off their
possessions and go in search for food.
Notes: History is replete with ample examples where people have sold off prized possessions
during famines and migrated over distances, to places where food was available and started their life
afresh!! Here Sage Parashara uses the word [SåÌWûlÉÉqÉç] which indirectly means any living creature born
with a body – this includes creatures too! So, all living creatures including humans are affected during a
famine.

Sage Parashara says that grains [A³ÉÇ] or farm produce is the source of sustenance and gives power to an
individual. Devata’s (gods), Rakshashas (demons) and Manushya (humans) are all dependent on food to
sustain them.
Notes: Apparently this treatise was coined during a period when gods, demons and humans co-
habited the land. By Hindu legend Gods vanished from sight once the age of kaliyuga dawned upon
humanity. In modern day terms “demons” maybe applied to terrorists or people who indulge in un-
necessary war!!

Sage Parashara says that grains are produced by grain bearing plants; these plants cannot grow without
cultivation. So, people must consider cultivation or agriculture as a profession.

Sage Parashara says that a farmer is blessed because farming is a noble profession. All living creatures are
dependent on a farmer to toil the soil and produce grains. While tiling his land a farmer may un-intentionally
kill or destroy animals living in the soil, but this sin is paid off if the farmer feeds visitors to his house.
Notes: In olden times when conveyance was not easily available, people took journey on foot.
There were no hotels available, so, people were dependent on hospitality of people they would meet on
their journey. It was and still is a custom in Hindu culture to consider a visitor – known or unknown, as
god sent messenger and treat him/her to a meal or partake of a feast. Such visitors were known as Atithi

to wait for such visitors, share their food and exchange pleasantries.

Sage Parashara says all type of agriculture is dependent on rains [uÉ×Ì¹] or rain bearing clouds [qÉåbÉ]. Hence
it is important for all farmers to analyze all omens, astrological combinations, mathematics to judge
what amount of rainfall will be available for agriculture. In ancient history, readers must note, in
absence of bore wells or underground water resources, cultivation was entirely dependent on rains.

Sage Parashara says that it is important to find who amongst the planets will assume the role of a King
[UÉeÉÉ], or a Minister [qÉÎl§É]. In the same way it is important to predict what amount of Rains will be
available and how much of it will be available for cultivation?
Notes: Aadhaka [AÉRûMü] was a measure of rainfall in ancient India. The sage lists four types of
clouds, the Aavarta, Samvarta, Pushkara, and Drona. These four types differ from each other by the
nature of rain that is shed by them. Parashara has outlined the gauging or the measurement of rainfall in
relation to the different clouds. There is also a mention of rainfall in terms of Yojanas but later on with

ones or ardent western students of Vedic literature the shloka for it they have not been able to quote a shloka in
support of this ancient wisdom, now they can see the shloka.

the evolution of Kautilya’s Arthashastra (4th Century BC) rainfall was measured in Dronas. Farmers are
advised by the sage to observe the monthly rainfall beginning with Paush (Hindu month) that is the
month of December - January. Parashara stresses that to know the quantum of monthly rainfall the
observer of the weather has to work every day and keep track of the direction of winds by fixing a rod
with a flag attached to it. According to Parashara, wind from the north or the west brings rain and that
from the east or the south indicates absence of rain.
A word of caution: Readers must note that this treatise was written for India – a nation situated in the
Northern Hemisphere. Obviously wind directions and rainfall patterns will be different for different
geographical areas. It behooves the reader to know local observations before attempting any calculations
or modifying methods of farming.

Sage Parashara says an astrologer must calculate the King amongst planets for the coming year. This is
usually done when the year changes by Shaka Samvat. The fourth from the King is the Minister.
Notes: There are several Hindu Almanacs in force, as also the calculation of year – viz. Vikram
Samvat, Shaka Samvat and so on. Sage Parashara says take the year based on Shaka Samvat, multiply
this number by three [3]. Whatever number is obtained add two [2] to it and then divide this sum by
seven [7]. Whatever is the remainder defines the King for the year ahead. Sage Parashara additionally
says that the fourth from the King is the Minister.

Let us take an example: As of today in the Gregorian year 2009 AD we are in the Shaka Year 1931.
* Going by the formula – 1931 X 3 = 5793
* 5793 + 2 = 5795
* 5795 divided 7 and the remainder is 6
Now the week days are

1. Sunday (Ravivar - Sun)
2. Monday (Somvar or Chandravar - Moon)
3. Tuesday (Mangalvar or Bhaumavar – Mars)
4. Wednesday (Budhvar – Mercury)
5. Thursday (Guruvar – Jupiter)
6. Friday (Shukravar – Venus)
7. Saturday (Shanivar – Saturn)
Going with the above list this year’s Kingship is allocated to Venus!! The Almanac available with yours
truly is Nirnayasagar Panchanga by Shastri Ji from Neemuch (Rajasthan) India.
If we go by the list above then fourth from Venus is Moon, so, Moon is awarded the Ministership of
this year!!

Shalivahan Saka calendar was started in 78 A.D. at Pratishthan hence whenever you want to calculate Saka year for
any year you may subtract it by 78

A word of caution: Any westerner attempting these calculations MUST get hold of a good and reliable
Hindu Almanac (Panchanga) and then proceed with these calculations. In any case if he/she gets a
Hindu Vedic Almanac these calculations will be mentioned already, but it is important for a student to
know these formulas rather than someone else giving end results on a platter. For example in
Nirnayasagar Panchanga for the current year 2009 (shaka 1931) this list is given
King - Venus,
Minister - Moon,
Dhanesh - Jupiter,
Dhaanyesh - Mercury (significator for grains),
Meghesh - Sun (meghesh is significator for type of clouds),
Rasesha - Saturn,
Nirsesha - Jupiter,
Phalesha - Sun,
Durgesha is Sun!

Sage Parashara’s says that the learned Muni’s devised a method of measurement where land area filled
with fresh water was measured in Aadhaka’s where 1 Aadhaka meant 100 Yojana’s (equivalent to 400
Kos) in length and about Thirty Yojan (equivalent to 120 Kos) wide.
Notes: Yojan, Kos and other measurements were related to Vedic times and find mention in
almost all Hindu texts.
Measurement of Distance
[2/54]
1 Kosh= 2 miles,
30 Kosh= 60 miles.
Since the commentator counts ten three times, it becomes 30 Kosh. According to the latest
measurements, the distance is calculated as eighty miles.
613
Culled from Valmiki Ramayana, [2/54/29]
[3/69]
The Ancient Indian measures for distance, as per Kautilya's Arth Shaastra, a republication of Penguin
are:
1 Angul (finger wide space) = 3/4 of present day inch;

4 Angul = Dharnugrah (bow grip) = 3 in;
8 Angul = 1 Dhanurmushti (fist with thumb raised) = 6 in;
12 Angul = 1 Vitastaa (span-distance of stretched out palm between the tips of a person's thumb and
little finger) = 9 in;
4 Vitastaa = 1 Aratni or Hast (cubit or Haath) = 18 in;
4 Aratni (Haath) = 1 Dand or Dhanush (bow) = 6 ft;
10 Dand = 1 Rajju = 60 ft;
2 Rajju = 1 Paridesh = 120 ft;
2000 Dand (Dhanush) = 1 Kosh or Gorut = 4000 yards or 2 1/4 miles - nearly 3.66 km;
4 Kosh = 1 Yojan = 9 miles - nearly 15 km; and this being so, the British revenue measured a Yojan as a 5
mile distance and Chambers and Oxfords has this 5 mile figure in their dictionaries, while traditionally
a Yojan (4 Kosh or Kos) is said to be as a distance of 10 miles.
[Taken from Valmiki Ramayan 3/69]

http://www.valmikiramayan.net/aranya/sarga69/aranya_69_prose.htm
Both passages are taken from Valmiki Ramayana, but both do not match among themselves. Apparently
when these Mythological Texts were written down as text, different authors gave different versions
regarding measurements. Also these are holistic or practical ways of measurements – for example if a
bow is being manufactured the manufacturer measures the hand of the person and the bow grip is
equivalent to 4 anguls or four fingers. If the bow is meant for a young student, naturally his fingers will
be thin, but the measurement for the bow grip will still be 4 anguls. Against this if the person is a fully
grown adult, the bow grip is again 4 anguls but naturally his fingers are fully grown, so the bow grip
will be wider. So, this was rather a tailor made hand crafted way of doing things. Modern day
mathematicians may argue over this matter, but this is how measurements were done in Vedic times.

days during the month of Paush. Considering this as a base, diviners should then predict rainfall for the
entire month.
Notes: – Hindu Vedic Months are mentioned below and still followed and mentioned in the
Hindu Almanac. India experiences rainfall both from southwest as well as south east. Southwest
monsoons usually bring much rain to western area, while southeastern monsoons reach as far as
northern states. Southwest monsoons usually arrive after summers usually around June, while
southeasterly monsoons occur during winter months.

Sage Parashara now invites attention to wind patterns and directions. If wind flows towards North or
West directions, one can expect rainfall. If wind flows towards South or East, it is an indication of no
rain. If the air is still, again no rainfall will be observed. If wind blows intermittently, rainfall will occur
intermittently.

Sage Parashara now tells us whether rainfall will occur during the day or at night. For judging the
correct time, observe wind for Five [5] Dand or Ghati and consider this as a base reading for the
concerned day. If wind blows in the earlier part of this time interval, rainfall must be divined during
day time. If wind blows in the latter part of this time interval, rainfall must be divined during night
time.
Notes: Measurement of time during Vedic times was not Metric (MKS) or FPS, instead a system
where Dand or Ghati was involved. This Dand or Ghati is an equivalent of 24 minutes in the present
sense. So, taking this into consideration the above verse translates to –
24 X 5 = 120 minutes or 2 hours!!
If wind blows in the first hour, rainfall is expected during day time and if wind blows in the latter hour,
rainfall is expected during night time. However it is not clear when this 2 hour interval should be
measured. Am taking the liberty to add that this interval may be around local sunrise – this is the time
when Hindu Vedic Day starts. Change of date in Western calendar occurs at midnight at 0000 hour,
while Indian Hindu Vedic day begins at local sunrise!!

Sage Parashara now asks the diviner to take a long staff and attach a flag or a piece of cloth at the top
part and erect this assembly in open space. The sage asks the diviner to take readings during day and
night both. This will give an accurate indication of wind direction. If sufficient readings are logged,
these will give ample indication of rainfall in the month ahead.
Notes: It must added here that the length of this staff or flag pole is not clear in this verse and
similarly the area and type of cloth is not clear.

that if a dust storm is observed during the Shukla Paksha and the atmosphere becomes clouded with
dust and lightening or thunder is observed in the western skies, heavy rainfall is expected during such
time.
Notes: Since Hindu Vedic Calendar is Luni-Solar in nature it is important to know the phases of moon.
The brighter half is known as Shukla Paksha and the dark half is known as Krishna Paksha. It behooves
the reader to consult a good Hindu Vedic Almanac or Panchanga before attempting any of these
observations.

observe, seven months from Paush is an indication for southwesterly monsoons in India!! Obviously
southwesterly monsoons bring much rain in India!!

Sage Parashara now gives us a fourth omen related to floods. He says if rainfall occurs between the
periods when Moon is between the signs of Pisces and Scorpio, seven months hence on the same tithi
rains may create a flood like situation.
Notes: Once again we must point out that Hindu Vedic calendar is Luni-Solar based and it is important
to know the tithi or the Lunar day in force during the day. A tithi changes when the difference between
Longitude of Sun and Moon changes by 12 degrees. There are two main Hindu Almanacs or Panchang’s
into force, where one considers the conjunction of Sun and Moon as the starting point of the month
when New Moon (Amavasya) occurs. The second Panchang takes the opposition of Sun and Moon (Full
Moon or Poornima) as the starting point of a Hindu Vedic Month. In both cases when the Moon crosses
12 degrees from these points a new tithi comes into force. So while western calendar stays accurate
beginning at 0000 hours, the Hindu Tithi sometimes extends to two western days. There are Fifteen
Tithi’s in the Bright half (Shukla Paksha) and likewise fifteen tithi’s in the dark half (Krishna Paksha).
Western readers are encouraged to consult a reliable Hindu Vedic Almanac before attempting any of
these observations. Please note that Hindu Vedic Almanac is based on the sidereal zodiac and degrees of
various heavenly bodies are calculated accordingly.

T
housands of years back Sage Parashara and Sage Jaimini gave their teachings in the form of
shlokas & sutras. Sanskrit is known as the mother of all languages and the complexity of the
script makes it very difficult for a present day scholar to decipher the correct meaning of the
original verse. This is because over several generations and also in the absence of expert
mentors, much of the information is lost. Still however existing manuscripts are witness to the rich
knowledge they contain. Translating these Sanskrit sloka’s into commonly spoken Hindi or several
Indian vernacular languages is an exercise where the meaning of original verse maybe modified or
interpreted in many different ways. There after translating these vernacular books into English is
another daunting task, because English language by itself lacks the rich structure and depth which
Sanskrit may convey. So, while we at Saptarishis Astrology attempt to facilitate the translation of these
treatises for Astrology Students & especially the Jaimini Gurus of today, any mistakes or mis-
interpretation may be attributed to us and our team – Madhav & Virendra, who translates them and not
to the original author.
Coming back to Sage Jaimini’s original work “Jaimini Sutras” – these verses or sutra’s are the
most complex example of Sanskrit language, where both mathematical formulae, interpretation and
then the meaning maybe conveyed and contained by the same verse. Of several interpretations of these
Sutra’s – a treatise by the name of Kalpalataa is one of the rarest of rare manuscripts. This is rare
because it is not available and very few Astrologers (counted on finger tips) have access to some very
old copies of Kalpalataa, in that too the full form of Kalpalatta is not available. The dating of this
manuscript some scholars say is 6th century and some say 16th century. The name Kalpalataa is not
known on internet forums, but its work is quoted in the form of its author Somanatha Mishra via the
form of Somanatha Drekanna and so on. The question honest students of jyotish should ask is what is
618
the shloka for calculating the Somanatha Drekanna, why does not anyone quote it? In recent
times Dr Raman tried to uphold the Parampara of Vedic Astrology by insisting on quoting of shlokas as
without that shastra is not to be learned and half baked knowledge comes out causing harm to receiver
of wrong predictions. Revered Dr Raman did this via his magazine and in his classic work ‘My
Experiences in Astrology’ one can find the importance of quotation of shlokas between his experiences
with his grandfather and also when to let go of the shloka in light of one’s experience. Presented below
is first the English translation from Hindi of what the Late Venkatacharya did from Sanskrit in Telegu
lipi and then at the end our team member Mr Shanmukha has translated Telegu lipi sanskrit into
devanigiri sanskrit for other scholars and gurus in Jaimini astrology to decipher and come out with a
better translation and commentary.
L
et us see how the ‘Transition Of Knowledge’ happens and how long it takes for it to come out.
Somewhere in a small town by the name of Rajahmundry, Andhra Pradesh there was a man who
freely distributed manuscripts unlike the past tradition of 10,000 years of India where one won’t
give a manuscript even to his best friend and especially to his own student unless the student has
done Ph.D in Public Relations on Guru Management. Some decades back this man who has beautiful
ears like Lord Ganapati, face that glows with radiance even at an old age gave the manuscript of
Kalpalatta to Iranganti Rangacharya & also to Koyil Kanddaade Ananna Kumar Venkatacharya from
Hanumakonda, Andhra Pradesh. Shri Venkatacharya in turn translated it in Hindi. Later this Hindi
and also Sanskrit manuscript (Telegu lipi) was given by Ravindra Bhagavat to Saptarishis Astrology,
we in turned passed it on to Mentor No.31, he has translated this along with Virendra Battu, as it is from
Venkatacharya’s Hindi work. In all the passing over some of the meaning of the shlokas as written in
Kalpalataa would have been wrongly translated hence we would in the future bring out Sanskrit to English
word to word translation. Since Madura ji had the original manuscript, it is important to note that he
could procure a manuscript of Kalpalatta 3 and 1/4th chapters (about 13 quarters of Jaimini out of 16), the
rest is not available at all, if at all there is. If someone has it or some Parampara who claims to have
manuscripts of Jaimini they must kindly share it immediately with all for the betterment of Jyotish
community. So in all it has taken decades for this maybe rudimentary translation to come out in front
of the world jyotish community, you can imagine how long it will take scholars to write a purposeful
commentary on this, then how long it would take you to master each verse and its application. The need
is the topmost 3-4 Jaimini astrology scholars to write translations and commentary on it and then you as
a reader should tooth comb each verse see various opinions in translations and commentaries and form a
complete work, which would take several years but this is the process of how shastra is to be studied and
how it is to be disseminated to the world and hence we would bring out various translations of the same
Kalpalatta which might be confusing for the young ones but for the scholars each variation in
translation is essential and they understand this process of what we talk about.
In the pages to follow would be the translation of Venkatacharya with additional clarifications or
notes from our end. Due to time limitations the Sanskrit shlokas in devanigiri could not be compared
with the translation of Mr Venkatacharya. Without the Sanskrit Shloka it is impossible to identify
what is/could have been Shri Ventakacharya’s words vs. Shri Somanatha Mishra’s words. Kalpalatta
though in prose form is often shied by scholars to do a purposeful translation and commentary as it is
not so easy a work, and can be confusing at times, kindly note this. Also presented below is information
that should be used after due consideration and the reason for presenting this is to only give a ‘Hint’ to
all of us who think we know Jaimini Astrology but only to see how little we know of Jaimini today. Re-
iterating, this information is not being presented with a view for using the material for immediate
predictions. Without the proper translations of ancient commentaries on Jaimini Sutras, we students of
Jaimini are like blind men trying to show others the path. We remain eternally grateful to Shri Ravindra
Bhagavat for his un-stoppable effort in bringing real Jaimini out. At the same time inspite of sending to a
village in Andhra, a representative of our writer & team member Mr Venkat Ramana, to procure a book
written on 70 dasas of Jaimini as mentioned in Kalpalatta, we failed to procure it. Weeks of planning and
anxiety gone in waste to procure other works of Venkatacharya, if anyone has it please do share. We all
1
Publisher: Mentor No.3 does not wish his name to be revealed and hence writes with a pen name Madhav
Deshmukh which was given to him by a Bhrighu Clan Jyotishi known as the Bhrighus. He was told this is
his spiritual name and hence he must use this name.
619
will be grateful. The reason this effort was done is, since today no Jaimini astrologer on internet
knows even the names of 70 types of dasas nor has any astrologer on net forums or parampara forums ever even
mentioned 70 dasas of Jaimini inspite of concentrated upsurge in Jaimini astrology in internet forums in
the last 12 years. Obviously it does not take 12 years to reveal names & calculations of 70 dasas hence this
presumption by us.
K
alpalataa was originally written by Shri Somnathacharya (for westerners – the word Shri in
the beginning of a male name is a salutation) in prose form. Shri Somnathacharya was the son
of Shri Krishnamishra – the author of yet another monumental work – Jyotish Phalaratnamala
which is considered as a ‘Shastra in Itself’ and is not a mere book. Yours truly tried to locate
the correct meaning of Kalpalataa, but received indirect interpretations. Kalp [MüsmÉ] literally means time,
a time equivalent to 4320,000,000 man years – for this is One day in the life time of Brahma – the creator
of this universe as per Hindu mythology. Kalpadruma [MüsmÉSìÓqÉ] happens to be a tree in Lord Indra’s
paradise – a mystical tree. Yours truly assumes Kalpalataa [MüsmÉsÉiÉÉ] to be a wine in the heavens or
paradise. Our author Shri Somanatha realized the depth and richness of Sage Jaimini’s Sutra’s. Since
this is a mystical wine and in a heavenly space (infinity is the term), one is expected to come across a
variety of flowers or rather bouquet of flowers in the form of teachings and knowledge as one climbs this
wine. Sounds interesting? Welcome dear friends to a journey where a student will come across hitherto
unknown knowledge and a variety of techniques un-revealed so far.
May God bless all those who uphold the true tradition of the Sages.
Preface
As written in Venkatacharya’s translation of Kalpalatta
´ÉÏqÉiÉå sÉ¤qÉÏ WûrÉaÉëÏuÉÉrÉ lÉqÉÈ

Shrimate Laxmi Hayagrivaye Namah
Salutations to Mother Laxmi the giver and sustainer of knowledge and to the 24 incarnations
of Lord Vishnu (Hayagriva happens to be one of these 24 incarnations).
To Sage Jaimini, knower of all knowledge, Greetings
Sir,
Kalpalataa is one of the best treatises so far. This was handed down to me with the blessings
and goodwill of scientist and astrologer Shree Mathur Krishnamurty Shatri Ji who resides in
Rajamahendravaram.
The original author of Kalpalataa is Shri Somnathacharya. Where Somnath Ji stayed is

difficult for me to say; only historians can reveal this secret?
620
According to Shri Somnathacharya Ji, Kalpalataa happens to be an interpretation of
Jaimini Stotras (sutra/verses). Maharshi Jaimini is considered as one of the greatest Sages
who revealed Astrology or the technique of foretelling the future. His method is different
from other lineages. There are other interpretations of Sage Jaimini’s sutra’s, but Kalpalataa
happens to be exhaustive and the best so far.
Kalpalataa is an independent treatise and it has four chapters, each chapter has four
divisions. The one in my possession has three parts of the fourth chapter missing. Nobody
knows where these remaining parts lay hidden?
As providence would have it, am entrusted with the divine task of translating this treatise to
Hindi. I am grateful for the favor and duty entrusted to me.
Am indebted and thankful to all mentors and guides who have blessed me to undertake this
task.
In Gratitude
Koyil Kanddaade Ananna Kumar Venkatacharya

First Bouquet
H ere our author has raised the status of Maharshi Jaimini or Sage Jaimini to that of
God, and he says that in the first four chapters Sage Jaimini reveals the secrets of
time and space. Since this is a mortal world and every event happens at a particular
time, it is important to have the knowledge of time, to not only know the event, but to
predict when and where such an event may take place. Sage Jaimini does so by revealing the
mathematics or formulae to predict the event. Thereafter Sage Jaimini reveals the
methodology how to interpret the results and divine the fruits or predict the event. Events
such as lifespan of a living organism, life after death, karaka or planetary significators for
houses and events, ascendants, drekannas, navamsa are described by Sage Jaimini.
What will mankind gain by revelation of such knowledge? The author says people
gain knowledge of time and space, and they realize that their existence is limited or no one
621
on this mortal plane is immortal. They will die one day!! This creates fear in the
minds of people. Since it is difficult to know what may happen after death when deeds committed
during lifetime are judged, people take a hint and restrict or change their lifestyles to live a life of self-
righteousness and piety. Once people turn to religion for guidance, there is an overall purity of the soul
and mind. When mind becomes pure, automatically people gain knowledge of the universe or the why’s
and how’s of this creation. Having gained such knowledge people may gain Salvation or Moksha.
Hence, Sages considered this knowledge as part and parcel of Vedas or one of the limbs of
Vedas (Vedang). Once this treatise gained the importance of being one of the limbs of
Vedas, it automatically gained importance and people saw the need to know or gain
knowledge of such treatises. It is said in Mahabharata that one who gains the knowledge of
all the limbs of the Vedas, becomes the all knower or the sum total knowledge that needs to
be gained. Hence this treatise is deemed important!!
In the first chapter topics on techniques, karaka (significators), pad (arudha in

common language), Rajyoga (combination of planets promising prosperity or kingly status)
are mentioned. In the second chapter topics on ascendant, karaka, longevity and their dasa
(see notes below) periods and dasa calculations are mentioned. Third chapter has topics or
rather descriptive analysis of Drekanna division. This is because knowledge about
ascendant, karaka etc. etc., is considered as Bahirrang Shastra or subjects which describe the
Outer Manifestation Of A Native. Studying the Drekanna one gets to know what kind of efforts
a native will put in, thus this involves studying the Innermost Efforts or rather the expressed fruits for
a native. Hence the study of Drekanna is also known as Antarrang Shastra. Of these
Antarrang Shastra is of prime importance. Others have laid importance of the study of Amsas,
so why is study of Drekanna given importance? This is because Daivagya’s like Varaha
Mihira too gave importance to Drekanna, hence it is importance for a student of astrology to
study Drekanna. Drekanna is nothing but a house in a chart divided into three parts
equaling ten degrees. Varaha Mihira gave the method to derive Drekanna divisions but did
not give methods to judge these divisions.
Kalpalataa mentions three different interchangeable (Parivrutti) methods to arrive at

Drekanna chart. These methods are Savya (direct), Apsavya (reverse order). For example,
by Savya method house divisions for Aries (odd signs) are counted beginning with Aries
and then in the direct order. For Taurus (even signs) and in the Apsavya method, divisions
will begin from Pisces. Thus using three different interchangeable methods a student can
arrive at 12 signs X 3 divisions – that is 36 drekanna’s.
N ow Amsa divisions are described, unlike other books, Kalpalataa mentions a

different method to arrive at these Amsas.
Navamsa Divisions
For Aries, Leo and Sagittarius (trikona rasis or trines), navamsa divisions will be counted by
the Savya or direct method beginning with Aries. For Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn,
navamsa divisions will be counted in the Apsavya or reverse order beginning with Virgo.
For Gemini, Libra and Aquarius, navamsa divisions begin in the Savya or direct method
beginning with Libra. For Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, navamsa’s will be counted in the
Apsavya or reverse order beginning with Pisces.
622
Now Dwadasamsa divisions are described. Like all other books on this subject, Kalpalataa
too mentions dwadasamsa divisions in the Savya or direct method to arrive at 12 divisions
for each signs.
Hora Division
Now Hora division is described. Hora finds mention in Brihajjatak as well as other well
known books, but the method described in Kalpalataa is different.
First Method: For both Bhava and Rasi, first half division (Hora) begins with the same rasi,
second half division belongs to the Labhapati. According to Varaha Mihira there are a total of
five different methods to construct a hora chart.
Second Method: This type of Hora division is best for judging Nashta Jataka and Longevity.
Here the first half division in Aries belongs to Aries, and the second half belongs to Taurus.
First half of Taurus belongs to Gemini and the second half belongs to Cancer. Likewise hora
divisions of other signs can be calculated. This type of Hora division is helpful for judging
Rajyoga and longevity calculations also.
Third Method: In this method the first half belongs to the same rasi, and the second half
belongs to the sign where 8th lord from the rasi (under consideration) is placed2 !! Some use
this hora for judging longevity only. There is yet another variation to the above method;
some people take the sign where lagna lord is situated, calculate the Ashrum Rasi [AwÉ×qÉ UÉÍzÉ]
from this point, and take this as lagna in hora chart3. This version they say is helpful in judging
life after death for a native. Thus, these five variants of Hora technique need to be analyzed
and their results divined by learned daivagyas accordingly.
Ghati Lagna
Now Ghati Lagna is being described, some say the calculation should begin with the
ascendant in the natal chart, but Kalpalataa mentions this differently. Find out which out of
the two – ascendant or the 7th sign is stronger, if the native is male calculate Ghati Lagna in
the direct fashion, if the native is female consider reverse order.4 This is the main difference
to be found in Kalpalataa. This book mentions various karakas, in the order mainly Atman
Karka, Svakaraka, Dasha karaka, Bhava karaka. Of these five5 are most important.
1) Atman Karka is one which covers most distance in a sign and finds mention in other
shastra’s too.
2) Swakaraka is the lord of the ascendant, which will be described in the coming
chapters.
3) Planet whose dasa period is prevailing at the instant becomes the Dasa karaka and this
too will be described further.
2
SA Translators: For example we are calculating second hora division for Taurus – the 8th sign from Taurus is
Sagittarius, find out where Jupiter is located in the chart, and again if for example Jupiter is in the sign of Cancer,
then the second hora of Taurus will belong to Cancer
3
SA Translators: Please note that no such word as Ashrum exists in Hindi dictionaries, so it is left to the reader to try
and find out what this really means – please do share your research with us
4
SA Translators: Please note that no distinction between male female charts is being done in Jaimini softwares and
net forums on calculation of Ghati Lagna, this is a remarkable feature found in Kalpalatta.
5
SA Translators: There is discrepancy in the original text - only four are mentioned - the line starts on image file 10
and continued on image file 11 speaks of ONLY four karakas, while the next sentence mentions them as a total of
five!! So, in totality one of the karaka's is not mentioned!!
623
4) Bhava karaka are of permanent and variable type. Bhava karaka can be of all the
houses in a horoscope. These are also described in Krishniya shastra (another treatise).
6
People who follow Jainism , they do not differentiate between swakaraka and atman karaka.
They sometimes use other karakas too. Considering this variation, swakaraka is of utmost
importance. Karakas have an important role to play as far as fruits or results are concerned, hence it
is important to know which planet gets signification of which karaka. It is equally important for a
student to listen to his mentor carefully, without his guidance it is difficult to divine
properly. It is also important to know which lineage is followed by a mentor, above karakas and their
meanings will be different for different lineages. If a student does not follow or know the religion
of his mentor, he will be ridiculed in public. Hence it is important for a student to pray and
follow his Guru or mentor. Next he must pray and worship Bhagwati Tripura Sundari. As a
third step, a student must attentively listen to the words of his mentor, and visualizing the
deity he must divine the results as they are mentioned in the shastras. If the results are not
based on methodology of shastras, contrary results and discrepancies may occur. Maharshi
Vyas has said that a Jyotisha and a practical person can easily become Brahmaghataka or the
destroyer of Brahm Vidya (Astrology is considered Brahm Vidya or divine knowledge).
Hence it is important that method be followed and both good and bad results be opined in a
clear and honest manner. Results should not be given as a written down text, it is forbidden by
shastras. If a daivagya gives a written prediction, it may not come true. Whatever method is
mentioned in the shastras, they will be followed in true letter and in spirit.
T he first chapter has four sub divisions. The first division gives us definitions and
specific terms; second division gives us results to be opined about the swakaraka.
Third division gives us information about Pad or Arudha, and the last and the
fourth division gives us information about marital issues. Second chapter has description
about forty (40) different dasa systems, third chapter has description about drekanna and
Rajyoga thereof, longevity and sixteen different dasa systems to judge longevity and lastly
Stri Jataka or Female horoscopy. Fourth Chapter has description about circumstances of
death of a native, travel and then information about netherworlds (after death) using
fourteen different dasa systems.
A Daivagya is supposed to have in-depth knowledge about sutras and then all the
seventy7 dasa’s to divine results for a native. Having known all of the techniques mentioned
in sutras, results so divined will definitely come true. Misfortunes if indicated in a
horoscope, must be confirmed by two to three different methods and only then the message be
conveyed to the native. On the contrary even if ONE Raj Yoga is indicated in a chart, the
same MUST be conveyed immediately. Other indications in the chart maybe checked using
four or five different techniques and the results conveyed to the native. Likewise
misfortunes indicated by evil houses may be checked accordingly, but in this case only one
6
Publisher: Deviating from the sentence one must comment that Shri Madura Krishnamoorthy Shastri one of the
oldest scholars of Jaimini Astrology alive today has indicated to us that in olden periods Jain Muni’s of India had
concentrated a lot on Jaimini Astrology and even wrote commentaries on it. This is news since nothing has come out
from those quarters in available works in Jaimini to the astrological community.
7
Publisher: Kindly note the reference of the seventy dasas mentioned in Kalpalata, Venkatacharya from Andhra is
heard to have worked on these 70 dasas and written a book. We are still trying to procure this. We still have not read
full Kalpalatta as it is being translated but we remember conversation with Mr Shastri that there is a rare text by the
name of Moola Shastra by Kalidasa which mentions the calculation of these dasas. This was told to us by Madura
Shastriji and one will notice that net forums have never mentioned the word Moola Shastra work/manuscript ever. Mr
Shastriji has searched through 18 libraries all over India for this work and accepts failure in locating it. In previous
article of Mr Shastri published in SA in his article he has mentioned Moola Shastra reference via Kalpalatta.
624
or two techniques are enough. If Raj Yoga is indicated in a horoscope, find the appropriate
dasa when Raj Yoga will manifest, death maybe predicted during the last part of such a dasa. If
indications indicate death within such a Dasa period, using two to three different
techniques, death for the native may be conveyed for that particular period. It is the duty of
a Daivagya to test such techniques on sufficient horoscopes and gain proficiency in diving
results for a native. For natives born in or with Raj Yoga, results maybe conveyed to the
native in a pleasant manner.
Phalit Dasas
Now Phalit Dasa systems are described.
1) One finds mention about forty dasa systems in the second chapter, of these ONLY eleven
such dasa systems are indicated for natives born with Raj Yoga. A Daivagya must know these
dasa’s and techniques to convey results to a native.
2) For natives born with extraordinary destines, only five dasa systems are indicated.
3) There are several ordinary dasa’s, but for Raj Yoga only four dasa’s give results of Raj
Yoga. These four dasa’s are Yogardha Dasa (Raj Yoga causing planets), Labhadipati’s
Drekkana Dasa, Bhava Rahasya Dasa, Mandooka Pulit Dasa. For a native born with Raj
Yoga, even if one dasa system indicates period where kingly status may be conferred on
the native, it must be conveyed appropriately.
4) Ordinary dasa’s are Nakshatrabhed Dasa, Nakshatraja Dasa, Nisargdasa, Chardasa,
Charparyaya Dasa, Sthirparyaya Dasa, and Gochar (transit planetary) Dasa. In the
absence of any good Yoga’s in a horoscope, these ordinary dasa’s maybe used to divine
results for a native.
5) For longevity predictions all natives are covered by four dasa’s, mainly Brahma Dasa,
Varnada Dasa, Chardasa and lastly Charparyaya Dasa. Other dasa’s can be used
wherever applicable.
6) If Brahma amongst planets cannot be easily identified, taking the rasi of the native, a
Daivagya may calculate imaginary Brahma and dasa’s maybe calculated to divine results
for the native.
Varnada
Varnada Lagna maybe calculated in the following manner – Add or subtract (the words used
in original devnagri script are Milaker aur Vibhakta kerna) the longitudes of Hora lagna and
Ascendant (Udaya Lagna), find the weakest trikona from this spot and calculate dasa
accordingly. Hence four different Varnada Lagna’s and dasa’s maybe calculated. A Daivagya
must use his sense of judgment to find which of these four calculations agree with each other
and divine death for the native. Whenever death inflicting period is known, a Daivagya may
use Kaksha Vriddhi and Kaksha Hrasa to adjust death inflicting dasa and then divine death
for a native.
In the chapter on Drekanna, several methods of longevity are described, but a
Daivagya may use his skills to judge longevity to arrive at conclusions. He MUST then use
Ghatika Lagna and calculate Ghatika’s and then calculate dasa’s and divine death or travel towards
the ending portion of such a dasa.
625
Aspects
N ow salient features of drishti or aspects are being mentioned. Aspect of a weak

moon (kshina chander) can modify a good yoga into a weak or evil yoga. During a
death inflicting dasa, if periods belonging to such weak planets exist, it will surely
bring death for the native. Without the involvement of a weak moon if auspicious
period is predicted during such a dasa, inauspicious results will come to pass. By a different
school of thought, such results are also predicted for Rahu, but by Kalpalataa both Rahu and
Mars can give inauspicious results. If these planets are supposed to give auspicious fruits, a
Daivagya is supposed to study planetary strengths and divine results accordingly.
Yogada
9 If Mars is a yogadata (yoga causing planet or yogakaraka) or if an exalted Mars is the

cause of Raj Yoga, such combinations maybe divined accordingly.
9 Usually Mars, Saturn and Rahu are the cause of death for a native. However if these
planets are the cause of Raj Yoga for a native, careful study is needed.
9 If Sun is yogada, the native will achieve kingly status. If such a Sun (yogada) is
aspected by a full moon (opposition), such a native will definitely achieve kingly status in a
land surrounded by water or near water.
9 If Mercury becomes yogada, the native will achieve fame because of others (friends,
relatives).
9 If Jupiter becomes yogada, the native will definitely be a learned person or an advisor.
9 If Venus becomes a yogada in a horoscope, such a native will either be interested in

the arts or seeking company through opposite sex.
9 If Saturn is a yogada, the native will achieve status at a small place or be a keeper of
the forests or live in a forest.
9 If Rahu becomes a yogada, the native will obey a king or he will be a tale bearer, a
wicked person, a backbiter, a backstabber or a sycophant.
9 If Ketu becomes a yogada, the native will be a follower of Lord Shiva or a keeper of
such a temple. In likewise manner, results maybe divined for a native studying all aspects in
a chart.
9 If multiple planets become yogada in a chart, study the natural strengths of planets
and divine accordingly. Without studying strengths, it will be a futile exercise to announce
results arbitrarily. A native can become a King amongst Kings, if auspicious planets combine
to give yoga.
9 If Yogkaraka8 planet is aspected by one planet, the native will be King amongst Kings,
if two or more planets aspect a yogada planet, results will come to pass or be nullified.
8
Translator: Suddenly this is where yogakaraka word creeps up while discussing yogada theory
626
Special Combination
9 If a yoga karaka planet receives aspect by Rahu, the native will become a poor
Brahmin or a pauper. If such a combination (yoga karaka aspected by Rahu) happens to be in a
horoscope belonging to a barbarian, a man of low birth, an outcaste or a wicked person, such a
9
native will be a King amongst his clan .
9 If Saturn aspects such a combination (mentioned in above sentence), the native

(outcaste) will be rule a small territory, if such a combination happens to be in a chart
belonging to a Brahmin, such a Brahmin (in older days Brahmins were considered an upper
caste or hierarchy in Hindu culture) will become one who sells betel leaves for a living or
offers betel nuts and leaves for a living.
9 If such a combination receives drishti (aspect) of Mars, the native will become a
commander of armies; in a Brahmin chart the same combination makes the Brahmin a
devotee of fire.10
9 If Jupiter aspects, the native will be a King who follows and upholds religion and be
learned person. If Venus aspects, the native will have many horses around his place of
residence (in modern times this may be applicable to conveyances).
9 If Chander (Moon), Rahu and Saturn aspect a yogada planet, the native will die of a
snakebite. Such results maybe carefully divined while considering exaltation and debilitation
of planets.
9 If a chart does not have a single Yogakarka planet, the native will live an ordinary life.
9 Some school of thought believe that if yoga karaka planet is in combination with an
arudha, it is a yoga by itself, but by Kalpalataa it is not so11. The reason is, in Kalpalataa
understanding of Arudha is included along with Lagna. From Lagna or ascendant one may
judge a native’s lineage, father, characteristics (guna) and his physical form. Only then a
daivagya divines or studies other matters from a horoscope.
Caste
9 A native’s caste maybe judged from swakaraka, if labha sthana (11th house) from such
a swakaraka has Jupiter in it or in conjunction with it, the native will have characteristics of
a Brahmin. Krushniya shastra mentions a lot about such a labhadhipati (11th Lord) and one
gets to know much about a native’s caste.
9 If swakaraka or the 11th Lord from swakaraka receives conjunction with Rahu, the
native will be a chandal or a person performing funeral rites in a crematorium.
9
SA Publisher: We had referred to this shloka in one of our commentaries in this issue, this is a very very important
verse showing how a same combination can give 2 different and opposite results in different men of different castes,
such kind of verse is rarest of rare and has not been seen before in our limited studies. On this aspect more will be
written later by us as space restricts.
10
Translator: Think here ends the rules for special combination, not sure
11
Translators: This sentence
is in direct contradiction to the last stanza’s where arudhas are mentioned and at the
same time Venkatacharya at places, within a sentence uses the word yogada and also in the same sentence
yogakaraka, though both are different classically speaking.
627
9 If Saturn and Rahu are both involved, the native will be a malaich or a person of lowly
birth.
9 If Mars is conjoined in such a manner, the native will belong to forbidden caste.
9 If Venus is so conjoined, the native will achieve Kingly status.
9 If an exalted Saturn is so conjoined, the native is a shudra (low caste).
9 If Saturn is debilitated the native belongs to Shankar (mixed lineage/parentage or

hybrid) caste.
9 If Mercury exclusively is involved, the native belongs to Vaishya or trading caste.
9 If multiple planets exist in the 11th from swakaraka or aspect this sign, the strongest
amongst such planets will define the caste of the native.
Dasa Years Specifics
While calculating the dasa years for planets one needs to consider Kakshahrasa and
Kakshavriddhi to adjust dasa systems like say for example Sun gets 3 years, Kshina or weak
Moon gets 1 year, Strong Moon gains 6 years, exalted Jupiter gains 12, debilitated Jupiter gets
6, mercury gets 3, Venus gets 6, exalted Venus gains again 6, rahu gets 1, and ketu and Sun
gets 3. Depending on strength of Saturn it gets 5 or 6 or maybe 7 years. Mars gets 2 or 3. For
Longevity or yoga Mercury, strong Moon, Venus, Mars and Jupiter get 1, 2, 3, 4 additional
years respectively as vriddhi. As for Saturn, Mars and Rahu, these get 1, 2, 3, and 4 years of
vriddhi. Ketu simply gets 1.5 additional years. Some schools of thought do not apply such vriddhi
in case of Sun. If Rahu is in conjunction with auspicious planets, then add another 1.5 years
vriddhi for that particular planet. For inauspicious planets in the like manner, 1.5 years needs
to be deducted. Exaltation and debilitation of planets should always be considered. When
more than one auspicious planets combine, then Kakshavriddhi and Kakshahrasa rules are
not applicable, since this is like a congregation. While considering fractional aspects, a
planets exaltation and debilitation needs to be considered. In the like manner Vriddhi and
Hrasa needs to be considered in fractional proportions.
Auspicious Inauspicious Planets
9 If auspiciousness or inauspiciousness of planets needs to be addressed, first calculate

their strengths.
9 Amongst auspicious planets strong Moon, Venus and Jupiter come ahead of all others.
Amongst inauspicious planets Mars, Saturn and Rahu are leaders.
9 In this case Sun and Ketu are considered as Shubh or auspicious planets.
9 If Mercury joins them, it is considered strong.
9 Likewise Jupiter is strong in the first12 and Moon is considered strong in Venusian
signs.
12
SA Translators: What does Jupiter strong in the first mean? Image file no 14 second line - the author himself does not
clarify, so I have left the translation as it is. Hint - maybe he is referring to Aries or Martian signs??
628
When considering results it is important to consider planetary positions and signs in a chart.
9 If planets are in the ascendant, they are considered strong, likewise if planets exist in
trikona (trines) or 5, 9 positions, they are strong too, because they give fruits or results
during their time.
9 If auspicious planets are in Kendra (angles - 1, 4, 7, 10 houses), they are less stronger
than planets in ascendant. In Kalpalataa both auspicious and inauspicious planets get equal
strength (while calculating their strength).
Exaltation and debilitation of planets need to be understood as mentioned in Brihatjataka

(another treatise) and other treatises.
9 Some exceptions are mentioned here – Mars when conjoined with Sun in a
sign/house, Sun is considered exalted.
9 When Sun conjoins Venus, it is considered as debilitated.
9 Moon is considered exalted if Venus conjoins with Moon.
9 Mars13 is exalted if it conjoins Saturn.
9 If Moon joins such a combination14, it is considered as debilitated.
9 Mercury is considered as debilitated if it conjoins Jupiter.
9 Mercury is exalted if it conjoins Rahu, but it will be wise if exaltation and debilitation
of Mercury is calculated based on other treatises.15
9 So, Mercury becomes gentle or auspicious if it is not conjoined with any other planet.
Same rule maybe applied to Jupiter, Venus and other planets. Exaltation and debilitation is
particularly helpful when calculating quantum of Kingly status (Raj Yoga) or Longevity
(Aayu). The sutras (verses) also take exaltation and debilitation of planets into
consideration in judging whether the chart belongs to other species except humans (Viyoni)
or animal births (Pashuyoni).
Some Secrets
We will now be looking into the secrets revealed by the Sutras.
9 If Moon is in the Chatushpada (four legged sign) drekkana (D3 division) and in the
Chatushpada Navamsha (four legged navamsa of 9th divisional chart), a four legged creature
is said to be born. If a favorable yoga exists, during its time the person may become an able
king or a leader (apparently here the reference is for a person born with more than one pair
of legs).
13
Publisher: Mars with Saturn in some charts we have seen it give results of exaltation
14
Which combination is not clear
15
Publisher: author is definitely speaking about exaltation of mercury, but he does not mention names of other
treatises or methods of calculating mercury's exaltation
629
9 If this combination receives aspect of Ketu, the person will be a leader amongst beasts
or those involved in animal husbandry or cattle herdsmen.
9 If instead of Ketu, Rahu aspects such a Moon, cattle/herdsmen are destroyed.
9 If Moon is weak and receives aspect of Mars, cattle maybe stolen or kidnapped by
enemies.
9 In the same case if Moon is strong and receives the aspect of inauspicious Mercury
cattle is drowned in a watery place. These results are based on Krishniya Shastra and the
example given relates to Moon in Chatushpada lagna or ascendant. In horary charts these rules
can be easily adopted.
9 If the ascendant in drekanna is in a Chatushpada sign and receives aspect of Saturn

and Mercury, the chart belongs to Viyoni or any other creature except humans.
9 If the 11th sign from ascendant in drekanna receives the aspect of a weak moon, again
Viyoni birth or non-human birth can be predicted. By another school of thought the rule is
about drekanna ascendant and not applicable from Navamsa lagna.
9 There are different types of Navamsa and Drekanna, but Drekanna finds more weight
and importance in this shastra. Some school of thought consider Hora Lagna and Ghati lagna as
more important, some use Bhava Lagna.
9 But in Kalpalataa a different method where a sign where Karaka is located is

considered as the Lagna or as ascendant and then other house and planets are used to divine
results for a native. Results divined with whatever is being described or the techniques being
discussed must be conveyed to a native secretly.
Jaimini Sutras have key sutras like for example, “Atha Iti” – this happens to be the key sutra
and finds mention in first, second, third and the fourth chapter. These are the “keys” to
unlock other sutras. Sutra’s described in the first chapter; first stanza will be used elsewhere
too. A thorough study of Bhava must be done with the help of earlier shastra (here the
reference to a particular shastra is not clear).
9 In Kalpalataa the following is considered – fifth bhava (house) from the ascendant is
taken as the “Pita” or father, ninth16 bhava is taken as the “Putra” or the progeny. The rest
are calculated accordingly.
9 In female horoscope seventh bhava from ascendant is taken as the “Soubhagya

Sthana” or the longevity of married life, eight bhava is then taken as the “Pati” bhava or the
spouse.
9 The twelfth bhava is given different significance from each of Ascendant, Karaka,
Drekanna and Navamsa.
9 In a Drekanna chart the sign where lord of the ascendant (from the natal or rasi chart)
occupies is known as the Drekanna lagna or ascendant. Similar rule is applicable to
“Dhanadhish” or the lord of the second bhava. Take the lord of the second bhava, find its
16
Publisher: If we remember well it was only in the Late S K Krar commentary that he has mentioned 9H for children,
nowhere else one finds it. Note the new concept of 5H for father.
630
location in the drekanna chart, the sign so occupied with be known as the “Dhana
bhava” or the house of finances in Drekanna chart. Similar rule applies to other bhava’s.
Arudhas
Now the author is describing Arudhas. Arudha has the same significance as the
house/planet for which it is calculated. Like a natal chart, planetary positions and results
must be calculated and judged from Arudhas. A daivagya must take into consideration
various bhava’s and then divine results using Arudhas and dasa systems included. Some
important rules of using Arudha are now described.
9 If Arudha Lagna (arudha of the first house) is in a male sign (signs have gender mainly male,
feminine and neutral) the calculation is in a forward order17.
9 If Arudha lagna is in a feminine sign the calculation is in the reverse order. First identify the
ascendant, locate its position in the navamsa chart, then calculate the arudha, similarly calculate
arudha for other houses. A daivagya must then judge other Arudhas so obtained with respect
to Arudha Lagna.
9 For example, if Moon and Venus is in the second from Arudha Lagna, the native will
be very rich.
9 If the fourth house from Arudha Lagna is a “Chara Rasi” or a movable sign, results are not
favorable for the fourth house.
9 If the fourth from Arudha Lagna belongs to a fixed sign, results are of medium nature,
but if the fourth sign belongs to a dual sign “Dviswabhav rasi” results are obtained in full.
9 Even if the horoscope does not indicate any good yoga’s, the native will receive fruits as judged
from the arudha.
9 If planets in arudha are not exalted, but instead inauspicious or evil planets have
aspect on such arudha, the native will be a pauper.
9 If an exalted planet or an auspicious planet is located at an arudha or the arudha

receives aspects from exalted planets or auspicious planets, the native may have Raj Yoga.
9 A similar rule must be applied to the ascendant too. Always look at the fourth and fifth
houses from ascendant or its arudha, if these house are not conducive (has evil planets or receives
aspect from evil planets), even Raj Yoga otherwise observed may be nullified or of lesser
value.
Acharya Ji did not wish to write a voluminous treatise; likewise father did not mention marginal issues.
With the blessings of my Guru Ji, I (here “I” refers to the original writer of Kalpalataa and not
Venkatacharya or Translators) have collected information from various other treatises and mentioned
them here for reference to students and experts alike.
End of First Bouquet!!

Publisher: In this editorial we had mentioned 5 types of arudha calculation in vogue in different parts of India as per
our limited knowledge and in one type there are two opinions thereby adding the numbers.

Tatkalin Bhrigu Prashna – Part 1
By
Bhagwan Shri Bhrigu Rishi
Re-Translated: Rohit Sharma, India
Sage Bhrighu’s Blessings
W ith folded hands and respect I would like to present here the very ancient and
hidden prediction technique from Sage Bhrigu. This teaching was presented in
Hindi language by Pandit Hardev Sahaye of Meerut (India) for the first time
for the welfare of the society. Someone posted this manuscript from the Osmania
University Library Call No. H 133.5 Ascension No. H4265, we thank the unknown person
who posted this. I take the privilege to re-transcribe the same knowledge in English and
present it to the world. There could have been a vision where in Sage Bhrigu saw that it
would be difficult in the future for the souls to get learned in the path of jyotish which is
vast like the ocean that brought this simple form of prediction from the great seer.
In this great gift to the mankind Sage Bhrigu created a simple chart of numbers from 1
to 160 with 10 numbers in a row. The seeker has to just follow some simple steps and keep
his finger on any one number in the table to get the prediction and remedies to his problems
after a small calculation. The answers are broad general ones but the remedies are the key
part of this form of Horary Astrology. In the analysis section either one or all the points
written could be meaningful for you. In my experience with this work which I have used
aggressively I would like to say that I have had immense success via it and the remedies
seem to work if done with faith. My clients have come back to me within a week many a
times giving either positive feedback and success over it or some movement in the matter.
Tatkalin if loosely translated would mean ‘Present’ so westerners can refer to it as ‘Present
Bhrighu Horary System’. This is like a form of methods that is famous in India called
‘Prashnaavali’ of which there are many types of Prashnaavali in India in the name of famous
saints and Saptarishis Astrology would in the future bring out many of the famous
Prashnavalis especially of saints from Maharashtra state of India, that have been passed on
from generations and work very accurately at times. These Prashnavalis have been resorted to by
village astrologers for centuries and closely guarded though our scientific minded astrologers might
650
term it as too broad a tool, yet when you use this system for a long time you would realize that the
system works too well than our normal astrology, the secret is to use it often and seek the blessings of
the sage to guide your clients via the Prashnaavali. One must note that there are various types of
Bhrighu Prashnaavali and this is just one of them, which is more of a broad prediction yet the remedies
are powerful. In other Prashnavalis of saints of Maharashtra which is in the possession of Saptarishis
Astrology the readings are far more detailed though only one liners and since few years it has been
tested by SA. Out of the 160 Analysis only 30 are being presented here and this would be a
series. I seek pardon from Sage Bhrigu if I have committed any mistake & also from the
readers.
Important Information:
1. The seeker in search of his answers through this book would get the right path with
divine blessings. The seeker needs to pay some amount towards each of the question
asked. You might have bought many books on astrology subject but book of this kind is a
gem in the crown.
2. Irrespective of the gender of the seeker the most vital thing to keep in mind is that the
seeker should be of good character and clear heart. He should first worship the book and
bring some fruits, flowers and donation as a token of respect. Empty handed seekers
looking for divine answers is not a good sign.
3. As per the philosophical aspect a person should never go empty handed to a priest, doctor
or to his daughter’s in-laws, this is a bad sign and may attract evil omens.
4. The questions that are most important are to be considered and placed forward only, as
testing of the book may attract bad luck.
Steps To Ask the Question:

1. The seeker should sit facing East.
2. The seeker should remember sage Bhrigu in his mind.
3. Seeker should visualize his question in his mind.
4. After a proper visualization he should remember Lord Vishnu.
5. After an internal prayer to the Lord he should keep his finger on any one of the
numbers in the chart.
Steps To Get The Answer:

1. Count the number of alphabets in the Name of the Seeker.
2. Count the number of alphabets of Sage ‘Bhrigu’.
3. Add the above two numbers to the figure from the table.
4. If the count exceeds 160 then that number has to be subtracted from 160 to get the
actual number.
5. Once the actual number is found, check the questions on that Analysis Part, if the
question matches then read out the prediction and the solution from the same
Analysis.
6. If the question is not there on that page then redo the calculation part to get the exact
number.
Note: This technique would not work if there is any doubt or the seeker wants to test the
technique.
651
Calculation & Example:
1) Numeric value for BHRIGU when Sanskrit is used is 4 or 6 in English letters counting.
2) If 4 do not get to the proper Analysis for each number presented below you can take it as
6 (English) this has been my experience, though writing a Hindi or Sanskrit word in
English like the name of Sage Bhrigu can be done in many ways a) Bhrigu or b) Bhrighu
and thus you can get 6 or 7 respectively. I have used Bhrigu and as there are 6 letters to
that name I use 6. Readers can form their own method and share their experiences.
Eventually it is my belief that whatever number you use for Bhrighu say 4 or 6 or 7, the
energy will on its own direct the client to choose a number more or less from the Table
Given below and thus the addition will come out correct only as all such Prashnavalis are
self correcting systems as per some scholars.
3) Regarding the name of the seeker, only the first name is to be considered and the
alphabets should be counted in the same language (English or Hindi) that is used to see
BHRIGU.
4) Let us take an example to see how the calculation is done.
a) Rohit Sharma is asking question so take Rohit which has 5 letters = 5
b) Add to it the name of Sage Bhrigu which has 6 letters = 6
c) Now meditate on the question and say you select number 16 from the Horary Table
(Prashna Chakra) given below =16
d) Now add step a, b and c =5 +6 +16 = 27
e) Now go to Analysis No 27 and read it, that’s it.

Analysis – 2
Y
our work is not going well since sometime and there are unwanted tensions creeping
inside you.
Income is not steady and the outgoing is more, there are expenses which are at
all not needed or untraced expenses.
You are very much attached with some person and which worries you the most, there are
feelings that rise in your mind related to that same person similar to the tides in the
ocean, but these feelings remain as it is inside you only.
There is some task that is out of your bound and you are not able to tackle if properly.

Worship lord Shiva in the morning and evening.
Analysis – 3
O

h Seeker, the task would be fulfilled.
Initially the phase that was running was not good, but it is over and the good
phase is about to come.
There is a constant worry regarding the health of self and family.
The profits that you think would come from the task you undertake is not fulfilled, the
profits are always less.
This tension and worries would vanish with some expenses towards the same.
You would get comfort, some hidden profits would arise, you would get success and all
the tension and worries and pains would vanish.
There are some malefic effect of the planets in your chart, have a proper study of the chart
done from a priest and do the remedies on the same with help of the priest.

Donate Rice, White Cloth, Sweets and Silver (as per your wish), this donation would bring
blessings that would take your task to the final phase very soon. You would be blessed
suddenly very soon.
With calm mind worship any KAL ISHWAR
In case you avoid donation, then the time taken for the completion of the task would
increase.
Holy trips are very good at this time.
Analysis –4
O h Seeker, the current situation in your life with respect to everything is out of
control and you are not able to see what to do regarding the problems. Your work is
going out of your control. There are many people who are showing hidden enmity

Analysis’s for readers to get an idea, later on it will be opted out.
654
towards you but they would not succeed in their plans. You are basically worried about your
health and family and there is someone specific regarding whom you are every much
concerned.
As the time is going medium phase there would be many depressing thoughts that are
overtaking you and you sometimes go deep into the thoughts but not able to get any results
for the thoughts that rise in your mind like the waves in the ocean.
Do not worry all your works would come to track and you would get positive results and
everything would come back to track.
Remedial measures:
Do Pitra Daan and donate yellow cloths, yellow pulses, turmeric and gold (as per your
strength), this would help eliminate the hidden enemies and the depressive thoughts inside
you.
Due to the low period that is currently on, you might have some family troubles. Do not
worry as the good time is about to arrive and you would get what ever you are thinking of.
Analysis –5
O h Seeker, the question that is there in your mind right now is filled with worries
and tensions. There is lot of money that is wasted and you do not know the reason
why this is happening. There is some particular thought that is there in your mind
that keeps you in the worried state, this though can be in respect to any living or dead.
There are many disturbing thoughts that overtake you and you are not able to decide as what
is to be done. There are many people who are connected with you, are also in the same state
of worry at this time; the main worry is related to you only.
During the bad phase of the life even the one who are closest, turn their face off from us.
There is still some delay for the work to be fulfilled.
Remedial measures:
There are many malefic planets that are playing the game and you have to go and do proper
worship and do donation on the name of the malefic planets.
Recite Vatuka Bhairava Mantra2 (` @e< ÿI— ïI— vquk ÉErvay AapÊÏar[ay svR iv¹< invary mm r]a< k…é k…é Svaha
- om aià hréà çréà vaöuka bhairaväya äpaduddhäraëäya sarva vighnaà niväraya mama rakñäà
kuru kuru svähä )
This mantra would fulfill your desires and would give you power to overcome the mental
tensions that are there within you.
Do Pitra daan and donate yellow cloths, yellow pulses, turmeric and gold (as per your
strength), this would help eliminate the hidden enemies and the depressive thoughts inside
you.
You are not able to see what to do regarding the problems. Your work is going out of our
control. There are many people who are showing hidden enmity towards you but they
would not succeed in their plans. You are basically worried about your health and family
and there is someone specific regarding whom you are very much concerned.

This is the same “Batuk Bhairav Mantra” as used in Bengali and other allied languages/dialects.

Analysis –6
O h Seeker, your wish is about to be fulfilled, what you desire is to happen and the

surrounding you due to the low phase that was there. There were unwanted
spending happening which were also due to the result of the low phase. You do not have
control on your own work and it seems as someone else is the governor of your work. There
are tasks that start well but do not get finished and get stuck somewhere in the middle due to
unknown obstacles.
There are couple of planets that are not placed well in your chart, refer the panchang
(ephemeris) and do worship of the planets with donations and mantra taking help from a
priest. This would help you come out of the unknown obstacles and the unwanted worries
would also leave you very soon. All the worries that are related with money and the tasks
that are stuck due to lack of money would also go once the work on the malefic planets is
done.
There are good signs of getting wealth from known or unknown sources but this may take
sometime. Future looks very good and everything that is in mind would be completed.
If possible worship Lord Shiva on daily basis.

T he question that is there at this time is related to the work, if the work should be
done or not and if done would that be good and would not bring ill fame and name.
The period that is in progress at this moment might bring in frauds and hidden
tensions that may arise without any need. There would be lot of monetary issues that may
effect at this time. There is always a though going in the mind that when this task would be
over and the wishes would be fulfilled.
The period that is going on is to finish very soon and the best phase is to start but the work
would take some time to settle down.
Worship your Ishta deva (Family God)
Worship your forefathers and offer sweets, cloths, fresh milk (not boiled).
Offer water to the Peepal tree (Sacred Fig/Ficus religiosa). This is a very good remedy.
It is long time since the bad phase and bad luck period is in progress.
Do the worship and you would be blessed with money and the tensions would vanish. The
work at this moment would take sometime to be completed as the bad phase is yet not over.

Analysis –30
O h Seeker the answer to your question at this moment, is that your work would be
done and the period of profit in your life would come very soon that would also
bring peace and happiness in your life.
There are different kinds of thoughts that arise in your mind like the tides in the ocean but
they settle down very soon as there is no result that is foreseen.
It is since couple of years or months that the period is not in your favor and there was lot of
unwanted expenses that happened which resulted in minimizing your investments.
By God’s blessings you would see the best of your luck and all your works would be fulfilled,
though there is a small delay in the same but would come definitely.

destination and the profit slips from your hand.

not hidden from the God, worship him regularly and do Bhajans (devotional songs).
All your works would be fulfilled and new opportunities would arise.

3 Sambhar is a south Indian dish as to why it is mentioned by Sage Bhrigu is strange. Even the Late
Original Translator was a north Indian man so one cannot understand whether it is the Sage who is
saying this or it’s the translator. Copy Editor Shastry adds ‘Even though it is the south Indian dish
Sambhar, there is another one used for dana purposes. That is butter milk with a high content of water…
This particular dana is considered very auspicious during summer seasons esp. when everybody will be
thirsty.’

Brindaavana pattanam
Nagalinga Sastri,
(Don't know
where this town is. But the book is printed
at Machilipatnam by the author). The
book is printed/published in the year 1921.
The book is a great work on prashna
shastra by Late Challa Sastriji, which
contains several principles explained in a
very lucid and easy way for practice by
every one who has knowledge in astrolgy.
It deals with the questions converted into
numbers and the planets associated with
those numbers. It is indeed a work with
which the results can be declared without
elaborate calculations. As always to
follow/practice the system explained in
the following pages one needs to be
thorough with the fundamentals of
astrology without which none can master
669
the subject.
The translator at the instance of Saptarishis Astrology in their venture to bring out rare
manuscripts/out of print books which are either extinct or available in the regional
languages for the use of astro community, has made an attempt to give the exact and true
translation of the book without adding any flavour in order to retain the originality of the
book and with a view that the same has to be understood in the perspective of the author. It
is possible that in the telugu translation the Sanskrit shlokas are not properly printed and the
author has faithfully given the Telugu version. Also it was noticed that printers devil seems
to have played a part and the book has some printing errors thereby making the sanskrit
telegu lipi shloka different and Challaa Sastri’s telegu translation different. The book is
being pubilshed in parts here. Please read on….

With careful study, we can learn the good and bad results using the Jyotish shastra. God
created this shastra to know about the good and bad results that we reap without our
knowledge. (Note: this sloka also can be understood as, the jyotish shastra gives remedies to
avoid the unpleasant things and attain the desirable results )

If the querent looks at sky while asking the question, it is jiva chinta (i.e. question he is
thinking about animate things). If he looks down, it is moola chinta ( CS:Vegetative world like
crops trees etc). If he looks straight / level, then it is dhaatu chinta ( related to metals )

If the querent touches head with hand while asking the question, it is jeeva chinta. If he
touches feet, it is moola chinta and if he touches navel, it should be understood as dhatu
chinta, say the learned. If he touches mouth or face, good results can be expected for the
jeeva chinta (i.e. question related to life). If he touches the chest/navel/waist, it is conducive
for the daatu chinta. However the results will be average if he touches private
parts/thighs/back, it denotes failure of the moola chinta i.e. faliure in the question related to
moola chinta. Touching knees, calf (portion between knees and foot), feet indicates jeeva
chinta, dhaatu chinta and moola chinta respectively.

Based on the direction from which the querent is asking the question - if he is asking from
the east side it is dhaatu chinta, from south it is jeeva chinta and from west and north it is
moola chinta, say the learned.

{Copy Editors & Translator: I think it is said that if the result is zero moola chinta śūnyemūlaṁ is to
be predicted whereas as per Venkat and our translator it should be 0 for moola chinta e.g 7 letters in
question, multiply by 2 and add 1 = 15 divided by 3 the remainder is zero. The telegu translation by
Challa Sastriji indicates 3 for moola chinta whereas it should be zero}.

Multiply the number of letters in the question with 6 and add 8. Divide the result by 9. The

death, Mercury, Jupiter and Venus indicate good (Shubham), Saturn, Rahu and Ketu
indicate failure.
Note 1: While the sloka seems to be giving guidance on how to arrive at the result based on the planet,
it is also saying that nature of the question is also to be ascertained based on the planet. But it is not
elaborated on who implies what. Next sloka after the following sloka gives the details.

Sutras from 4th Century

A bright star is in the eleventh degree of Aries. Whoever has the ascendant in this star, if
Jupiter is with it or in trine aspect to it, will be a great, powerful leader, a friend of kings,
holding important land. He will die at the appointed time.
If, when Mars is in the seventh house, Saturn is either on the ascendant or the MC, or if the
full Moon is moving toward Mars or the waning Moon to Saturn, this indicates deadly
catastrophes. The native will encounter accusations, chains, prisons, condemnations on
capital charges. Or he is forced to meet wild beasts, is thrown over a precipice, or severely
wounded in domestic plots, or killed by bandits. Or he is drowned in a shipwreck. All these
are decided by the signs. For if Mars is in an earth sign the native is forced to meet wild
beasts; in fixed signs he is crushed by ruins or thrown over a precipice; in watery signs he
perishes in a boat; in human signs he is killed by a sword.
Mars in the eighth house by day either denies inheritance or strips it away in proscription. If
he has the Sun and Moon in opposition he indicates blindness. Alone in this house he
predicts poverty, difficulties, fevers, riots, revolutions, dangers.
Those who have Mars in the eighth house by night will be intelligent, shrewd, and involved
in dangers. They will be engaged in well-known public activities but suffer violent death, or
a sudden one, such as happens to apoplectics. But if Jupiter is in aspect to Mars in this house
or is together with him, these evils are to a large extent lessened.
Mars in the ninth house will be favorable in regard to life and fame. And if Jupiter is on the
ascendant he makes the natives happy and has them win whatever they seek. If Mars is in
the ninth house by night and Jupiter is on the ascendant, this indicates great power of
administration and right of the sword, and it makes leaders of armies. Often, however, thus
located he indicates difficult journeys.

Technique & Guide: Saptarishis Astrology
Readership Level: Basic To Advanced
I n pursuit of the Vision of the Saptarishis Astrology to remove the rarest and
hidden techniques in the Science of Astrology and make Astrology
understandable to one and all, a series of mind boggling BSP techniques are being
explained in these columns, which are simple to use and easy to adapt. One must bear in
mind that no technique works 100 % & Saptarishis Astrology does not have enough
experience in the testing of these methods but they are being revealed here so that all of us
can collectively test it and see if it works or not on a consistent manner and if not then find
out the riders in that method.
Always the nodes (Rahu/Ketu) are mysterious and it is not very easy to predict their
results in a nativity. Of course volumes have been written on nodes by various scholars in
astrology, but still all of us find predicting with nodes is very difficult due to their
unpredictable nature. There are so many parameters to be considered for predicting behavior
of nodes (as they are shadowy planets),
a) Nodes act as their dispositors
b) Nodes act as per the planet conjoined with them
c) Nodes act as per the planet aspecting them and so on.
[One is reminded of the Mythological story about the Rahu/Ketu. There was a demon
named ‘Swarabhanu’ who participated in Churning of Milky Ocean for Nectar. This demon
was intelligent and when all his fellows demons were allured and diverted by the Lord
Vishnu in the guise of Mohini, a beautiful lady, (as part of the strategy of gods who did not
want to share Nectar with the demons since they will also become immortal and pose threat
to them), sat in the row along with the gods for a share of the Nectar. Without realizing this
676
he (Swarabhanu) was also served with Nectar and it was noticed by the Sun and Moon who
inturn complained to Lord Vishnu. By this time Swarabhanu had put the Nectar in his
mouth and lord Vishnu with his weapon (Vishnu charka) cuts and separates the head from
his body. But with the effect of Nectar Swarabhanu became immortal and lived for ever.
The head became Rahu, who always looks down to his body and tail became the Ketu, who
always looks up to his head. Therefore, Rahu always signifies material and mundane things as he
looks down wards and Ketu looks up and signifies spiritual things. Further, as the Sun and Moon
were instrumental for the separation of Swarabhanu (Rahu-Ketu) into two parts they eclipse
them]
Stories apart, let us come back to the BSP techniques mentioned here under.
Sage Bhrighu’s Easy Methodology - Bhrighu Saral Paddathi

The rules pertaining to the Nodes (Rahu and Ketu)
BSP 8: Rahu implements itself in the 6th from itself in the 38th year of a native.
There are a few sub-rules in how to use Rahu more effectively which are avoided in
this piece for brevity’s sake but when taken gives a more complete picture.
Chart No: 1. French Actor Dies at 38
October 22, 2008
PARIS (Rush PR news)10/22/08-French film star Gerard Depardieu’s son Guillaume, a 37

year-old actor who rebelled against his father and led an angst-ridden, tumultuous life, has
677
died of pneumonia, his father’s agency stated. He served his first prison sentence at the age
of 17 and returned to jail when he was 22 for heroin trafficking. Source:
http://www.zimbio.com/Julie+Depardieu/articles/2/Son+French+actor+Depardieu+dies+37
Rahu is in the 8th of death, it will implement itself in the 6th from it which is the 1H of body
and thus Rahu brought death on the native. Rahu also shows the scandals he was associated
with and hence it brought the scandals alive when he died.
Let us analyze the same applying kakshya method which is used for the BSP Mars 10th
house rule published in the previous issue Vol 6 May 2009 of Saptarishis Astrology & one
can observe that the Kakshya method when coupled with the BSP gives more accurate hint
for us to predict.
(Kakshya-Slot) Degrees Lord of Kakshya
1. 0 ° 00" to 3 ° 45 " Saturn [Slowest Planet]
2. 3 ° 45 " to 7 ° 30 " Jupiter
3. 7 ° 30 " to 11° 15" Mars
4. 11° 15"to 15 °00" Sun
5. 15 °00" to 18° 45 " Venus
6. 18° 45 "to 22 ° 30 " Mercury
7. 22 °30 " to 26 ° 15 " Moon [Fastest Planet]
8 26 ° 15 "to 30°00" Ascendant
Important: Please note that the kakshya of Rahu is decided by deducting its longitude
without considering the signs from 30 degree as it is retrograde.
Kakshya: Rahu is in the Kakshya of Saturn, who is the 8th lord of death posited in the 11th
house of hara along with lagna lord (body).
Chart No. 2: Own House
A4
A4
The above native in his 38th year entered own house on Aug 1986. Her 38th year is from
Dec 85- Dec 86. Let us see how Rahu implements itself in 38th year in this chart. Rahu is
678
posited in the 2nd house from Ascendant (Pisces). It implements in 6th house from itself
which is the 7th house of the chart. If we consider bhavath bhava 7th house is 4th from 4th
house. In this chart 7th house is also 4th from AL. Most importantly Rahu is with A4 (arudha
of the 4H). Therefore, the native entered into the newly constructed house.
Kakshya: Rahu is in the Kakshya of mercury who is the 4th and 7th lord for this ascendant
posited in the 9th house. Mercury is also the lord of AL and significator for 4th house in this
chart. Hence Rahu when implemented itself in the 6th from itself in the 38th year gave him
new house.
Divisional: D-4
In 4th divisional (D-4), Rahu is in the 8th house, it will implement itself in the 6th from it
which is the lagna (Sg), the lagna lord is Jupiter placed in the 4th house of house and he
bought a house.
Chart No. 3: Purchase of Apartment
This is a chart of a female native. She purchased a flat during 2nd half of 1994 her 38th year
which is from Mar 94-Mar 95. Rahu is in the 12th house from Scorpio ascendant. In this chart
Rahu implements in the 5th house from lagna as per BSP-8. 5th house is the 2nd from 4th
house. 2nd house from any house is the sustenance or gain of that house. Hence it indicated
gain for the native as self acquired property.
Kakshya: Rahu is in the kakshya of Saturn. Saturn is the 3rd and 4th lord in this nativity and
posited in the ascendant. Rahu is in the exaltation sign of Saturn and gives the result of
Saturn.
679
Divisional: D-4
In D-4, Rahu is in the 12H so it will implement itself in the 6th from it which is the 5H of D4
signifying gain of house.
680
Chart No. 3: Heart Attack
A4
A4
This native during his 38th year suffered from heart attack. Rahu is posited in the 2nd
house from the Capricorn ascendant. In 38th year it has to implement in the 6th from 2nd
house which is 7th house from ascendant. Both 2nd and 7th houses are maraca houses. 7th
house in this chart is 4th from AL also 4th from Ascendant lord indicating heart. Rahu is also
conjoined with the lord of 8th house also. Rahu is with Sun which signifies heart and also
with A4. However, the native recovered from the ailment because of other combinations in
the chart.
Kakshya: Rahu is in the kakshya of Mars who is the lord of 4th and 11th house from
ascendant located in 3rd house of longevity & in the 12th of loss to 4H of heart. Mars is the
lord of AL and placed in 12th from it. Mars can cause sudden events like heart attack being 4th
lord as well as Badaka lord.
Divisional: D-6
681
In the health divisional chart (D-6), you can see that Rahu is in the 10H implementing itself
in the 3H of loss (12th from 4H) of hearts health resulting in heart attack.
Chart no. 4
A4
A4
This native purchased a new house at a very competitive rate in his native place in the
th
38 year. However, he never stayed in his own house as he is always away from native place
due to his profession. He rented the house since beginning and is earning a good amount as
rent. In this case Rahu implements itself in the 11th house of gains from ascendant as he is
placed in the 6th house.
Kakshya: Rahu is in the kakshya of Venus who is the lord of 2nd and 7th from ascendant and
lord of A~4 placed in the 5th house from ascendant and 11th (gain) from A~4. As Rahu
implements in the house of gain (11th) and being in the kakshya of Venus the purchase of
property is for the gain of the native through handsome rental income.
Divisional: D-4
Rahu is placed in the 6H of D-4, it will implement itself in the 11th house which is 6th from
its location in the 38th year, he bought a house in the 38th year. In D-4, Rahu is with A4
which again shows gain of & from property in the 38th year of the native which is how it
happened.
682
A4 A4
Chart No. 5
A4
A4
The native purchased a flat in his 38th year by taking heavy loans. Rahu is posited in
the 3rd house from Capricorn ascendant. In 38th year it implements itself in the 6th from itself
which is the 8th house from ascendant where Jupiter the 12th lord and dispositor of Rahu is
placed. Eighth house is the 4th house from AL & flavor of 8th house has to come. This
justifies the native purchasing flat by incurring heavy expenditure.
683
Kakshya: Rahu is in the Kakshya of Saturn the ascendant lord and the lord of A~4.
Saturn being the lord of A~4 and has given purchase of flat by the native appears to be
justified.
Divisional: D-4
A4
A4
In the concerned divisional chart, one can see that Rahu is in the 3H so it will implement
itself in the 38th year in the 8H of sudden movements in life where A4 is placed, thus he got
a house in the 38th year.
Conclusion: The above technique is giving us a clue how the events from nodes can be timed
& predicted. What I found while analyzing the charts is Jaimini Arudhas are helping us
better in pronouncing the results. However, this technique may have to be further tested on
various charts and fine tuned by the scholars, most importantly upon practice on 100-200
charts gives us the snap shot predictive ability, before those 200 charts it is only fixology.

I
n continuation of the BSP-8 wherein it was demonstrated about Rahu’ 38th year
principle let us now see the Ketu principle explained here. There are many techniques
to this only one is explained here.

BSP- 9: Ketu implements itself in the 12th from itself in the 24th year of a native’s life.
The charts are analyzed first by the normal method and also kakshya method which is
used for the BSP Mars 10th house rule published in the previous issue Vol 6 May 2009 of
Saptarishis Astrology & one can observe that the Kakshya method when coupled with the
BSP gives more accurate hint for us to predict.
2. 3 ° 45 " to 7 ° 30 " Jupiter
3. 7 ° 30 " to 11° 15" Mars
685
4. 11° 15"to 15 °00" Sun
5. 15 °00" to 18° 45 " Venus
6. 18° 45 "to 22 ° 30 " Mercury
8 26 ° 15 "to 30°00" Ascendant
Important: Please note that the kakshya of Ketu is decided by deducting its longitude
without considering the signs from 30 degree as it is retrograde.
Chart No.1 Marriage
This is a female native’s chart. As per our rule Ketu implements itself in the 12th from itself
in the 24th year. In the chart ketu is posited in the 3rd house from the ascendant. In the 24th
year the native got married. Ketu being in the 3rd house will implement itself in the 12th from
3rd house which is 2nd from ascendant. Second house is the house of family and addition to
family happened. Also Ketu is considered as a karaka for marriage. Therefore, the native got
married.
Kakshya: Ketu is in the kakshya of Mercury (18° 45 "to 22 ° 30 ") the 2nd lord of family and
11th lord of marriage located in the 11th house of marriage as per BPHS. Therefore Ketu’s
influence over the 2nd house in the 24th year gave marriage to the native.
Chart No. 2 Marriage

This is yet another case the native got married in the 24th year. The native is Scorpio
ascendant and her Ketu is in the 6th house Aries. Here Ketu influences the 12th from itself
which is the 5th house of Pisces. Jupiter the 2nd lord of family life and 5th lord of gain of
686
marriage is posited in the 5th house of gain of marriage. Ketu’s influence on the 5th house and
Jupiter the lord of family and love has given marriage to the native in the 24th year.
Kakshya: Ketu is in the kakshya of Jupiter (3 ° 45 " to 7 ° 30 "). Therefore, it is explicit that
the native got married during the 24th year which is justified by the kakshya lord Jupiter
being the 2nd and 5th lord for the Scorpio ascendant native.
Chart No. 3 First job

In this chart ketu is in the 4th house Pisces from the Sagittarius ascendant. In the 24th year
the native got her first job. From Pisces Ketu implements itself in the 12th from itself which
is Aquarius the 3rd house for the native and also the AL (note: AL is resultant lagna for
profession). Third house is the house of growth and self effort and is also the 10th house
(result) from the 6th house of service. The lord of 3rd house Saturn in 9H (Bhagya sthana) is
aspecting this house. Therefore native got employed in her 24th year.
Kakshya: Ketu is in the kakshya of Ascendant (26 ° 15 "to 30°00"). Ketu being in the kakshya

Conclusion:
We could have included 10 more charts where this technique works but there could be some
charts where it does not work if one might not be experienced enough in this method, hence
we request people to test it aggressively and post their feedback or prepare articles on the
same method. One can also observe that at times Ketu is almost giving results of the same
house where it is posited in the 24th year.

O
ut of the nine planets we generally consider for delineation of charts Jupiter is
considered the most benefic planet. Why Jupiter is given such a status of all the
planets? There is one reasonable argument that Jupiter contributes the highest
benefic points (56) in Ashtakavarga system of judging the planetary strength in a nativity.
Further, it is also stated that the aspect of Jupiter is most benefic than that of its occupation
in a House/Rashi. It is a well known fact that Jupiter has two special aspects 5th and 9th in
addition to the general 7th aspect from its location. But the question that is asked or rather
not asked so far by astrologers is:-
a) How exactly will it influence its aspect & fulfill its natal promises. What is the
difference between each of its aspect? Some theories have floated in the past re this.
b) Which year (s) exactly will it fulfill its natal promise?
For thousands of years of astrological history the question (b) has not been thought of and
subsequently not answered. Before we attempt to make an attempt to answer (b) let us visit
a small story which depicts the auspiciousness of Jupiter’s aspect. Jupiter (the guru of gods)
wanted to get his daughter married and in all fairness approached Venus (the guru of
demons), despite his professional rivalry with Venus, to get his daughter’s chart examined.
691
Venus after examining the chart foretold that his (Jupiter’s) daughter will die of snake
bite at the time of her nuptials. This as a father Jupiter could not digest and wished that this
prediction of Venus should go wrong. Jupiter performed the marriage of his daughter and
the nuptials were arranged. Jupiter was anxious and praying that his daughter should be safe
and long lived. Though it is unethical he made a small hole to the door of the room where
the nuptials were arranged and peeped into the room at the time of nuptials. He witnessed a
snake entering into the room of bride & bridegroom, spent there some time and went
without biting his daughter. Jupiter was so happy that his daughter is safe and went to
inform Venus’ about his failed prediction. Then, Venus said that the failure in prediction
was due to the aspect of Jupiter. Such is the benevolence of the Jupiter’s aspect.
Stories apart, let us come back to the BSP techniques mentioned here under.

BSP-10: Jupiter 9th aspect rule – 40th year.
a) Jupiter will implement its 9th aspect in the 9th house from the place it is located in the
40th year of a native’s life.
b) Jupiter will implement itself in the house where he is located in the 40th year of a
native’s life.
Let us examine & test the charts given hereunder by applying the above rule.
Chart 1:
DOB: 23-Aug-1964 TOB: 5.50 a.m. POB: Chinaganjam, India. His Jupiter is in the 10th
house. He got promotion in the 40th year on 1-April-2004. Jupiter implements 10th house in
the 40th year the place it is located. Further the 9th aspect of Jupiter would be in the 6th
house of job, so an event in job area can happen, which is what happened he got promotion.
692
Chart 2:
DOB: 09-Sep-1963 TOB: 4.00 a.m. POB: Machilipatnam, India. In this chart Jupiter is
located in Pisces the 9th house. This person in the 40th year i.e. between 09-Sept-2002 to 09-
Sept-2003 went in to depression due to the problems in profession. His blood pressure shot
up to 160/110. He met with an accident and was bed ridden for some days.
If we see 9th from Jupiter, then it is the 5H which is house of loss of health (12th from 6th of
health) & 8th house of Sankat (problems) from 10th of career. The 5H is the house of mind
and depression starts with the mind, its lord is Mars in the 12th from it in the 4H of heart
(blood) and Mars is blood, also in the 6th from Moon (flow of blood) hence he could have
had blood pressure problems which starts with non regulation from the heart (4H)
Chart 3:
693
DOB: 18-July-1968 POB: Amalapuram, India TOB: 16:00 Hrs. This man was working
abroad, lost his job during August 2007 and returned to India. Again in January 2008 he went
abroad on some job and could not retain it for long. Returned to India during July 2008. In
January 2009 he once again got a job abroad and he is continuing there. So during the entire
40th year he was having professional disturbance. He has Jupiter in 10th house Leo. From this
house Jupiter aspects through the 9th aspect the 6th house Aries where Saturn and Moon are
present. Saturn is 4L of home (he returned home) and 3L of short travel (Jan 2008 he
travelled but not long term). So in 40th year Jupiter ruled the 10th and 6th both concerned with
profession predominantly. Further, the lord of the 9th from Jupiter is Mars and is in the 8th
house showing the ups and downs as indicated above. Do not ignore this point, the dispositor of
the aspected house can indicate the end result as previously highlighted in all our articles.
Chart 4:
DOB: 10-Oct-1968 POB: Secunderabad, India TOB: 03:25 a.m. This man in the 40th year
suffered severe infection in his liver and of course is now cured. During April 2008 this
person was infected and hospitalized for some time. In this case Jupiter is in Leo ascendant
and implemented in the ascendant (body). See the beauty here Jupiter indicates Liver in
human body and Leo also indicates Liver. Therefore the effect was more severe. Jupiter’s 9th
aspect will be on Aries which in Kala Purusha (Natural Zodiac) indicates the health and
main body of individual. Its lord in Leo indicates problems to health (12th from 6th sign of
health).
Chart 5:
DOB: 17-May-1954 TOB: 03:05 a.m. POB: Cuddapah, India. This native is an IITian and
completed his research in IIT Kharagpur. His 40th year would be from May 1993 to May
1994. He was working as a lecturer in REC Calicut. During the 40th year his promotion was
694
denied due to political issues. He got vexed up with his job and tried abroad (Singapore)
for a job. During Sept 1993 he got a chance and left for Singapore. There he could settle as a
reader in Singapore University. He is a Pisces ascendant person, Jupiter in 4th house Gemini
aspecting his 12th house of abroad by 9th aspect. He says his non-promotion was a turning
point for him otherwise he would not have tried for a job abroad. Jupiter aspect on 12th from
ascendant has given him a loss by not getting promoted in the job at the same time it
dragged him abroad where he could settle comfortably. Jupiter sitting in the 4H of home
land has give its result in the 40th year by combining with Ketu (Change-demonstrated in
previous editorials of SA) and made him change his residence from India to Singapore.
Chart 6:
695
DOB: 14-Dec-1964 POB: 04:35 a.m. POB: Machilipatnam, India. He is a Scorpio
ascendant person with Jupiter in 6th house Aries. In 40th year (feb-2004) he purchased a flat
by taking loan and entered new house. Jupiter aspects 2nd house of gain of property being in
6th house of loan. Thus he gave both gain of property (11th from 4th) via loan (6th house of
loan where he is placed) in the 40th year.
Chart 7:
DOB: 20-Mar-1968 POB: Ponnur TOB: 04:14 a.m. He is Capricorn ascendant. Jupiter is in
8th house Leo. In 40th year the native experienced lot of financial problems and his wife
suffered slip disc, a chronic disease. He purchased a flat during end of 2006 which he had to
sell during his 40th year (jan-2008). Here Jupiter being the lord of 12th house of ill-health &
hospitalization is in 8th house aspecting 4th house from ascendant. Eighth house indicates
wife's health as per some & as per some it will give effect in the 12th from it as it is retrograde
so here it will give results of the 7th house of wife – his wife’s health suffered as Jupiter
brought back the chronic disease energy of the 8th house. Being 3rd lord of loss/sale of house
& aspecting 4th house of property he had to sell his house to overcome financial hardship.
All this happened in the 40th year thus fulfilling the promise of the 40th year.
Chart 8:
DOB: 17-July-1964 POB: Kakinada TOB: 06:00 a.m. He is Cancer ascendant person. Jupiter
is in 10th house Aries. From Aries it aspects Sagittarius 6th from ascendant, also Sagittarius is
the natural sign of car loan. This person has taken bank loan and purchased Car during Oct
2003. Jupiter activated ketu, 6th house and A~4. (arudha of vehicles). Jupiter’s dispositor
Mars is placed with Venus in Taurus, the natural sign of gain of vehicles.
696
A~4 A~4
Chart 9:
DOB: 20-Dec-1962 POB: Eluru, India TOB: 01:30 a.m. In this chart Jupiter posited in 6th
house from Virgo ascendant. With its 9th aspect, aspects 2nd house of family life. The lady
got married on 07-Apr-2002.
Conclusion
So far we have tested this method on 30 charts in total & not on 100s, we request readers to
do so and give their feedback. We repeat it here that a technique working on even 100 charts
does not make it a dictum. It might not work on your 101st chart, the reason is as there is a
697
Yoga there is a Yoga bhanga too for each yoga, this concept of yoga bhanga is not thought of
by most astrologers. The same way there should be yoga bhanga for all the Bhrighu Easy
Methodology techniques which we are not aware of. Certain positions of certain planets to
each planet will create a yoga bhanga, ancient classics give us the hints to this but so far
none have expounded on it and scholars are requested to do so if they have ignored it so far.
In time to come we would expound the various other years of the 9th aspect of Jupiter and
also the various other years of implementation of the aspects of the other planets.

BSP-11: Jupiter 5th aspect rule in 32nd year.
a) Jupiter will implement its 5th aspect in the 5th house from the place it is located in the 32nd
year of a native’s life.
b) At ‘Times’ it has been observed that this 32nd year implementation also can happen in the
same house.
c) Jupiter’s 5th aspect has a Special ‘Unlocking’ characteristic & a ‘Purva Puniac Characteristic’
(Previous Life Results). This must not be ignored.
d) The 3rd house from this 5th house (aspect) of Jupiter i.e. 7th house from Jupiter, will
‘Control’ or ‘Influence’ the results of this 5th aspect. In effect one can say that Jupiter’s 7th
aspect can also be implemented in the 32nd year.
e) Jupiter is karaka for children, prosperity ( Vriddhi) is to be kept in mind & also can be
the worst malefic at times irrespective of lordships (old astrologer’s saying to mentor)
Kindly re-read the above & let us test the charts given hereunder by applying the above rule bearing in
mind that testing is easy but application of any method can be done only by a Master astrologer after he
has put his head under the sword of 50,000 charts publicly for decades, the rest are only gurus or writers.
699
Chart 1:
DOB: 29-Aug-1969 POB: Hyderabad TOB: 12:55 p.m. The 32nd year of the native will be from Aug 2000
to Aug 2001 & this lady got married during October 2000 in her 32nd year. See the placement of Jupiter it
is in the 11H of marriage (BPHS) with Mercury the 11th lord of marriage. Jupiter’s ‘Unlocking’ 5th
aspect falls on the 3rd house which is the Bhagya of Marriage and thus the Bhagya of marriage was
‘Unlocked & Activated’ enabling the lady to get married at this later age in life. From Moon Asc, this
3rd house which is receiving the 5th aspect of Jupiter is the 11H of marriage from Moon Asc. This 11H
receives the aspect of Venus who is the DK (darakaraka-life partner karaka) in 7 charakaraka scheme
whereas in the 8 charakaraka scheme it would be GK (dispute-divorce karaka – significator).
Chart 2:
DOB: 09-Sept-1963 POB: Machilipatnam TOB: 04:00 a.m. The 32nd year of the male native will be from
Sept 1994 to Sept 1995 and he was blessed with child on 8-Oct-1994 in his 32nd year.
See placement of Jupiter it is in the 9H of ‘Manifestation of Children’ (arudha of 5H of

children), its 5th aspect falls in the Asc whose lord is Moon placed in the 11H of children (BPHS).
700
Jupiter in return is aspected by PK-Putra Karaka (Children significator) Mercury from 3H which
is the gain of children house (11th from 5H). Mercury becomes PK (children) in 7 charakaraka scheme
whereas in 8 charakaraka scheme he becomes Pik. It is said that children are a result of one’s Purva
Punya (previous life’s deeds) and here you can see how the Purva Puniac 5th aspect has unlocked it for
the native.
Chart 3:
A2
A2
DOB: 14-Dec-1964 POB: Machilipatnam TOB 04:35 a.m. The 32nd year of this native will be from Dec
1995 to Dec 1996 & he got promotion during June 1996 in his 32nd year. See placement of Jupiter it is in
the 6H of job/service and thus its 5th house aspect he will implement in the 32nd year which will be 5th
from 6th i.e. 10th house of career & achievements. In the 10H Mars the 6th lord of job is placed along with
A2 (money/status – due to promotion) & Amk (career – both schemes) is placed and thus gave him the
promotion in job in the 32nd year thereby implementing Jupiter’s unlocking aspect.
Chart 4:
A6
A6
701
DOB: 17-July-1964 POB: Kakinada TOB: 06:00am. His 32nd year will be from July 95 to July 96
and he got promotion during May 1996. Jupiter is in the 10H so BSP-11 (b) is also implementing in the
32nd year in 10H and Jupiter’s 5th aspect is looking at the 2nd house of status & money where A6 (job).
Thus he gained both money and status in his job in the 32nd year.
Chart 5:
DOB: 20-Mar-1973 POB: Warangal TOB: 23:36. The 32nd year of the native will be from Mar 2004 to
Mar 2005. Jupiter is sitting in the 12H and its 32nd year 5th aspect will be on the 4H of home. Jupiter is
the 2nd lord of family life (getting activated) and also the 11th lord of children (BPHS), the native was
blessed with 2nd child during November 2004 the 32nd year of the native. Jupiter is karaka for children
& its aspect in 4H of home, stated that ‘Child will come in home’ or it can be interpretated that Jupiter’s
increasing aspect in 4H of home life, thus ‘ghar mein vriddhi huin’ (increase in family) which is what
happened. 1st child is 5H, 2nd child is 3rd from 5th which is the 7H and the lord of it is Sun (PK too) in
conjunction with an exalted Venus, thus possibility of female child is more and the 2nd child was a
female child.
Chart 6:
702
DOB: 24-July-1951 POB: Amalapuram TOB: 04:35 a.m. The 32nd year of the native will be from
July 82 to July 83 and during this period he was blessed with a son on October 1982. Jupiter’s is sitting in
the 10H of career and has not much to do with children (unless you take it 2nd from 9th), but it’s 5th
unlocking, increasing and Poorva Punya aspect (children) falls in the 2nd house of family where Sun the
PK (children karaka) is placed. The dispositor of this PK- sun is placed along with Jupiter thereby
instigating it to give results of children. From Moon Asc this 5th aspect of Jupiter falls again in the 5H of
children from Moon, thus all roads point to one thing which is something to do with children and that is
what happened, he was blessed with a male child (Sun is male planet- but not always).
Chart 7:
DOB: 16-Mar-1957 POB: Amalapuram TOB: 00:21. The 32nd year of this female native will be Mar 88 to
Mar 89 & in this 32nd year when Jupiter implements its 5th aspect she was blessed with son in August
1988. It is requested of readers to erect this chart in their software and play with arudha calculation
options and 7-8 charakaraka options. Unfortunately only 2 methods of arudha calculation are known so
far to the jyotish world but there are 3 more. This chart can be looked at from many angles, if one
follows BPHS Jupiter is sitting in the 11H of children with A9 (children for females), she was blessed
with child using BSP-11 (b) method. Jupiter’s 5th aspect of Purva Punya (esp children) and vriddhi
(increase) is falling on 3H which is the gain house of children (11th from 5th). Previously known Parasari
methods of Jupiter being the 2nd lord of family and 5th lord of children being aspected by Jupiter’s 7th
aspect on 5th house can be used profitably and timing gotten from BSP-11 (d) method. In Jaimini 7
charakaraka scheme Jupiter is GK (fight-disease significator) and with 8 charakaraka method Jupiter is
Putrakaraka (children significator), so should one abolish 7 charakaraka method? whereas one cannot
ignore that in this article in previous examples in most cases 7 charakaraka method has been successful.
In D7 Jupiter is placed in the 5H of children giving child in 32nd year – BSP-11 (b), aspecting with
5th aspect on the 9H of children (especially for women) giving child – BSP-11 (a).
So far we have taken only good cases of Jupiter’s 5th aspect and what about BSP-11 (e) wherein we said
that when Jupiter becomes malefic it becomes the worst malefic, the most controversial statement
considering that lordships might not count.
Chart 8:
703
The lady of above chart once challenged that astrology does not work and showed her chart to a Bhrighu
Saral Paddathi astrologer amateur, he predicted that as Jupiter’s 5th aspect is implementing on the 8H of
occult, where Saturn is 4L of chastity, she must have had a break in relationship in the 32nd year exactly,
lady confirmed this and was stunned as to how fast this could be predicted, then she was predicted that
in that year she must have had a kind of psychic attack/black magic in regards to this or a relationship
wherein the lady confirmed through a series of stories of how she felt its exactly due to some kind of
black magic this could have happened and infact in that period she got a dream in which her hair
(Saturn) was being cut and some magic ritual performed by some tantrik in that dream. What is not
shown here in the above chart is Saturn is dispositor of 12L of dreams too. That year was a very bad year
for her and as you can see here Jupiter inspite of owning two good houses has played the worst malefic
for her though might have protected her in the end.
The BSP -10 & 11 techniques are presented at the holy feet of Sage Bhrighu and Lord Ganapati for their
acceptance and blessings.

BSP-10 Jupiter 9th house rule.

Jupiter will implement itself in the 9th house from the place it is located in a chart and/or the
house where it is located in the 40th year of a native’s life.
One can observe that the Kakshya method when coupled with the BSP gives more accurate
hint for us to predict. Let us examine the charts given here under by applying the kakshya
rule.
2. 3 ° 45 " to 7 ° 30 " Jupiter
3. 7 ° 30 " to 11° 15" Mars
4. 11° 15"to 15 °00" Sun

705
6. 18° 45 "to 22 ° 30 " Mercury

Chart 1
DOB: 23-08-1964 TOB: 5.50AM POB: Chinaganjam, India, his Jupiter is in the 10th house.
He got promotion in the 40th year on 1-April-2004.
Jupiter is in the kakshya of Saturn the 6th and 7th lord posited in the 7th house. Saturn
is also the lord of 10th house from AL. As Jupiter will give the result of its kakshya lord the
native’s 6th of job and 10th house of career from ascendant and also 10th house from AL are
activated and thus the native received promotion. Thus Jupiter’s 9th aspect of 40th year to the
6h of job gave result as promotion as the dispositor of 6H is in the 7H of position.
Chart 2
DOB: 09-SEP-1963 TOB: 4.00 A.M POB: Machilipatnam, India. In this chart Jupiter is
located in Pisces the 9th house. This person in the 40th year (between 09-09-2002 to 09-09-
2003) went in to depression due to the problems in profession. His blood pressure shot up to
160/110. He met with an accident and was bed ridden for some days.
Jupiter is in the kakshya of Moon the ascendant lord in this case. Moon though
posited in his exaltation sign Taurus; this is badhaka sign for Cancer ascendant. Further, 11th
house from ascendant is malefic especially for the purpose of health matters. Moon is
aspected by 5L of mind Mars (8th aspect) who is placed in his enemy sign Libra. Moon also
706
1
indicates blood in human body & Mars is the significator of accidents. Mars is placed in
sixth house of accidents & health issues from Moon the kakshya lord. Thus Jupiter’s 9th
house aspect in the 40th year to the 5H resulted in health issue as it is in the 6th from kakshya
lord Moon. Note that this 5L is in the 4H of home and he was bed ridden was some days,
Mars did its job.
Chart 3
DOB: 18-07-1968 POB: Amalapuram, India TOB: 16:00 HRS. This man was working abroad,
lost his job during August 2007 and returned to India. Again in January 2008 he went abroad
on some job and could not retain it for long, then returned to India during July 2008. In
January 2009 he once again got a job abroad and he is continuing there. So during the entire
40th year he was having professional disturbance. Jupiter in 10th house Leo.

th
In this case Jupiter is in the kakshya of Sun who is the 10 house lord posited in the
th
9 (12 from 10th) house of long journeys, conjoined with the 12th lord of losses Venus.
th
Therefore, the native experienced losses and disturbances in his professional life

SA Publisher: Some take Moon as blood, some take Mars. Some take Mars as blood and Moon for flow of blood. It must be
noted here that in the said chart both Moon and Mars are connected via Mars aspect & Moon Mars combination though a
Dhana Yoga Combination but also gives blood pressure problems.
707
during his 40th year, as Jupiter’s 9th aspect in the 40th year fell on the 6H of job where Saturn
3L of changes and travel is sitting which is in the 10th from Kakshya Lord Sun.
Chart 4
DOB: 10-10-1968 POB: Secunderabad, India TOB: 03:25 A.M. This man in the 40th year
suffered severe infection in his liver and is now cured. During April 2008 this person was
infected and hospitalized for some time.
In this case Jupiter is in the kakshya of Ascendant. Ascendant lord Sun is placed in
nd
the 2 house conjoined with Ketu (malefic). Ascendant contains Mars (in medical astrology
2
functional nature of planets is not considered) and 8th lord Jupiter . Ascendant also contains
Mandi and Gulika. All these factors indicate the trouble in the Leo region that is liver.
Further ascendant degree is 13.31 (2nd drekkana) indicating the second part of the body from
neck region to abdomen and also first 5 degrees of a drekkana indicates internal body parts
and second 5 degrees of drekkana indicate external parts of the body.
Thus Jupiter’s 9th aspect on the 9H is falling in the 40th year in the sign of Aries
(health in natural zodiac) and its lord Mars is placed in the Asc who is the kakshya lord
hence there was health issues in the 40th year.
Chart 5
DOB: 17-05-1954 TOB: 03:05 A.M POB: Cuddapah, India. This person is an IITian and
completed his research in IIT Kharagpur. His 40th year would be from 05/1993 to 05/1994. He
was working as a lecturer in REC Calicut. During the 40th year his promotion was denied
due to political issues. He got vexed up with his job and tried abroad (Singapore) for a job.

SA Publisher: Normally Jupiter is also taken as karaka for Liver by many & Jupiter being in the kakshya of Asc
(body/health), he had health problems regarding the liver especially so since Jupiter is the 8L of chronic diseases. What is
requested of readers is to aggressively use this Kakshya technique as taught by Venkat Ramana and then it would give the
readers more confidence in its application. Remember to commit the Kakshya Table to memory.
708
During 09/1993 he got a chance and left for Singapore. There he could settle as a reader in
Singapore University.
He is a Pisces ascendant person, Jupiter is in its own kakshya. Jupiter is the 1st and 10th
lord posited in the 4th house and AL. 10th house is occupied by Rahu and Mars. Due to the
presence of Rahu the native was clouded for some time with politics (rahu) happening in his
career (Rahu in 10H) and Jupiter implementing its 9th aspect in the 40th year in the 12th from
ascendant took him to abroad for betterment of his profession as 12H is abroad and Jupiter is
10L of profession.
Thus Jupiter’s 9th aspect in the 40th year happened to the 12H of disappointments and
its lord Saturn is in the 8H of transformation and transformation is what happened in his
life. Saturn is with the planet of travel Moon so he travelled to Singapore and since Saturn is
in the 5H from Kakshya lord Jupiter it gave new opportunity as 5H is the house of new
opportunity.
Chart 6
DOB: 14-12-1964 POB: 04:35 A.M POB: Machilipatnam, India. He is a Scorpio ascendant
person Jupiter in 6th house Aries. In 40th year (feb-2004) he purchased a flat by taking loan
and entered new house. Jupiter aspects 2nd house of gain of property (11th from 4H of
property) being in 6th house of loan.
709
Jupiter is in the kakshya of Moon the natural 4H of property of the natural zodiac &
also 6L of loans from 4H of property sitting in the 5H which is the house of gain of property
being 2nd from 4H, thus in the 40th year he had gain of property.
Chart 7
DOB: 20-03-1968 POB: Ponnur TOB: 04:14 A.M. He is Capricorn ascendant. Jupiter in 8th
house Leo. In 40th year the native experienced lot of financial problems and his wife
suffered slip disc. He purchased a flat during end of 2006 which he had to sell during his 40th
year (Jan/2008).
Here Jupiter is in his own kakshya apart from being the lord of 12th house in 8th house
aspecting 4th house from ascendant and thus you can see that the 9th aspect of 40th year
resulted in loss (12L & 3L) of house. Being 12th lord aspecting 4th house he had to sell his
house to overcome financial hardship. Eighth house indicates wife's health.
Chart 8
DOB: 17-07-1964 POB: Kakinada TOB: 06:00 A.M. He is cancer ascendant person. This
person has taken bank loan and purchased Car during Oct/2003 in his 40th year.
710
Jupiter is in the kakshya of Ascendant. Ascendant lord Moon is placed in the 4th house
of vehicles. Therefore, Jupiter connected the 6th house of loans (9th from Jupiter) and 4th
house of vehicles giving him opportunity to buy car on loan in his 40th year.
Chart 9
DOB: 20-12-1962 POB: Eluru, India TOB: 01:30A. M. In this chart Jupiter is posited in 6th
house from Virgo ascendant aspecting the 9th aspect to the 2H of family life where Venus is
placed. The lady got married on 07th April 2002 in her 40th year.
Jupiter is in the kakshya of Sun who is the lord of 12th house of bed comforts. Sun is
posited in the 4th (sukha sthana) which is the house of settlement in life alongwith Mercury
ascendant lord. Jupiter being in the kakshya of 12th lord activates the 9th from itself which is
the 2nd house in the chart leading to addition in family.

Bhrighu Saral Paddati – 13

By
Andree Leclerc, Canada
Technique: Saptarishis Astrology
W
ith Obeisance to Lord Ganapathi, Lord Bhrighu & Varahamihira, we thank them for the
boons of BSP and are now diving into BSP-13 with this new karma revealing technique.
BSP-13: Saturn’s 3rd aspect implements itself in the 20th year.
What must be kept in mind is that when we read in newspapers that a person died when he was 79,
it actually means he completed his 79th year and was ‘In His’ 80th year. The Nadi system of astrology
follows this ‘In His’ year or current or running year as Indians like to call it. So when we say Saturn
implements its 3rd aspect in his 20th year it means that the native has completed the 19th year and is now ‘In
His’ 20th year or in other words between 19 and 20. Also as the Late J. N. Bhasin pointed out in his immortal
classic ‘Hora Shatak’ results of planets (in our case Saturn’s 20th year) can be altered plus minus 1 or 2 years
depending on the strength of planets and aspects of benefics and malefics on it.
Chart #1: Elizabeth Taylor
British-American actress, born in London to American parents residing in Britain. She learned
ballet shortly after learning to walk and once performed before the Queen. At just 18, she married 23-year-
old Nicky Hilton, heir to the hotel fortune, on 6th June 1950, and it was a disaster from the first. The
marriage did not last a year. Next came divorced British actor Michael Wilding, 19 years Liz's senior,
whom she wedded on 21st Feb 1952.
712
Saturnji aspects the 5H of romance with his 3rd aspect wherein sits Rahu and Venus – Venus stands for love
& Rahu for divorcee/scandals - she married a divorcee. Moreover, the Lord of the 5H, Jupiter, occupies the
9H of religious ceremonies and so, the two lovers were duly wedded. Taylor’s 20th year will be from Feb 1951
to Feb 1952 when Saturn’s 3rd aspect will implement itself and that is when she married on 21st Feb 1952.
Chart #2: Amelia Gossage
American heiress upon the death of her wealthy parents when she was a teen. On 2nd Dec 1975 in her
20th year, she returned to her apartment with a dinner date. Her brother was there and refused to leave.
Angry, she pulled his hair and threatened him with a claw hammer until he left. The next day, her brother
Eben came home about 9:35 AM when she was asleep. He woke her at 10:30 AM as she had asked. They
began a violent argument. At 10:55 AM she made a phone call then resumed their fight. Eben later claimed
that she came at him with a hammer and scissors. In a rage, he hit her with the claw hammer over 17 times
on her head and neck, then stabbed her in the back 20 times with the scissors. Altogether, she had 62
wounds. Amelia died between 11:00 AM and noon.
713
This is rather grim and we can see that Saturn aspects the 6H of enemies where Moon (12L of exit),
Sun (Lagna Lord) and Mercury (maraka 2L & 11L of elder brother) conjointly sit. Same 6H is owned by
Saturn which is conjunct with none else than Mars (Significator of brother) and Rahu (BK-brother
significator as per degree system of sage Parasara) in the fierce sign of Scorpio. All this is very inauspicious
and so was her demise, and this is how Saturn in the 4H (incident happened at home) did his 3rd aspect in
the 20th year to the 6th house of fighting & created this dramatic violence (Saturn, Mars, Rahu – 3 most
1
violent planets) by her brother.
Chart #3: Jean-Claude Killy
French skier and entrepreneur, the second man in history to win the Triple Sweep in the Alpine
men’s ski in the Winter Olympics in Grenoble, 1968. Taking the gold medal in downhill, slalom and giant
slalom and focusing on speed as opposed to style, Killy helped create the modern racing style that
revolutionized the sport. At 19, Killy joined the French team, whose coach was impressed by his daredevil
style and came to the US for the first time.
Saturn’s 3rd house aspect falls on Leo, the 2H, which is occupied by its Lord the Sun, plus Moon (Lagna
Lord & also dispositor of Coach 9L) and Venus (Lord of 4H & 11H) – thus setting the scene for his 20th
year, when he joined his coach (Guru). This chart is a chart of dispositors. See Lagna is self body and LL
Moon disposits Jup the 6th lord of sports & competition & 9L of coach. So the event in his life started in
this 20th year which is initiated by Saturn’s 3rd aspect.
SA Editor/Publisher:
a) Saturn is karma karaka and is placed in the 12H of ‘Past Life Unfinished Business’.
b) Saturn is a cold planet – he activated the 20th year – ski – Winter Olympics – see connection.
c) Leo is the 5H of Sishya (student) in the Natural Zodiac, thus Jean-Claude became a student which is
most essential if one has to prepare for his karma.
d) Saturn’s 3rd aspect did what is an unknown part in Vedic astrology, ‘it activated the Moon & Sun
Ascendants together with Venus (note this Ven)’. Now see the chart from Moon & Sun Asc and you
1
Editor: As food for thought look at 3rd lord of brothers in the 8H of death & this is in the 3H (brothers) from Sun/Moon
indicating strong cause of brother in death. Then look at Asc & 3rd lord from Moon/ Sun Asc is Jupiter which is again in the 8H
of death from the Sun Moon Asc.
714
would see the aggression required for sports, gotten in from Mars who thereby got activated as the
Yogakaraka. Mark this Golden rule without yogakaraka activation via ‘Its’ Asc Sign getting
activated, it remains a useless yogakaraka and astrologers complain that in real practice yogakaraka
planet many a times does not give results without knowing the reasons for this. There are many
rules for this but one of them is that without its Asc not adequately beneficially activated, it is
useless. Note that Saturn is in a Vipareeta Raja yoga and thus its activation of Leo is most
significant. Note that Vipareeta Raja Yoga generally means success after someone’s losses but it also
means success after pressures; note that a Coach always put pressures on his students to perform.
e) He was a craze in 66-67 and in 68 he broke records in the Winter Olympics – you can see that the
planets Saturn activated in the 20th year, gave fruit, the 66-67 period was the Venus MD last part
and during the greatest part of his career i.e. the Winter Olympics, the Sun MD had started
fulfilling the Karmic role of the 8th cold Lord Saturn and bringing him to the forefront (7L Saturn),
and this Saturn becomes the 6th lord of sports and competition from the Moon Sun Asc, now can
one see the significance of this Saturn.
f) 1-2 issues back, Saptarishis Astrology had spoken about an unknown ‘Activation Theory’, here in
this chart you can see how this Activation has happened, the seed of the event is more important
than the event and that is the role of astrologers to find. Let it be stressed we are in the business of
finding out the seed & not only the fruit.
This move was a step closer to success for him, even if it came after some reverses.
Chart #4: Steven Spielberg
American film producer and director, the winner of an Academy Award on 21st Mar 1994 for his
direction of the Best Picture of the year, "Schindler's List." On 21st Mar 1999, he won the Oscar as Best
Director for his "Saving Private Ryan." Spielberg grew up in Cincinnati, hearing war stories from
Hungarian Holocaust survivors who were tutored by his grandmother. The family moved often and the
boy often found himself an outcast, the only Jewish kid in school. He recalls the jibes and jokes about anti-
Semitism and at one time, wished he was not Jewish. As a means of expression, he started tinkering with
film production when he was eight with his dad's 8mm camera. By the time he was 20, he became a
professional director for Columbia Pictures. His parents’ marriage was unhappy and they divorced when
Steven was 19 (that was it his 20th year running).
715
Saturn 9L of father aspects the 4H of home life & mother from its placement in the 2H of family, thereby
separating (Saturn) the family. The 4L, Mercury, is placed in the 6H with Ketu, the karmic planet. It is at
19 years that he went through the pain of his parents’ divorce.
Chart #5
The person below is one of Saptarishis Astrology’s volunteers cum guide.
We see that Saturn occupies the 12H and therefore aspects the 2H. As the 2L of education has gone to the
3H of changes, he changed college and his line of education. As the 6L Mars aspects the 2L, he opted for a
technical line of study (because he is a smart ‘kid’!). All this happened between May 92 to May 93, the 20th
year and as Saturn is the 9L of higher education, it was indeed higher education (engineering studies) for
the boy.
Chart #6: Mata Hari
Dutch prostitute and exotic dancer who also served as a spy. The daughter of a merchant, in her younger
2
years Margaretha was expelled from convent school for sleeping with a priest and, at the age of 18, moved
to Java with MacLeod, her 40-year-old husband. They married on 11th July 1895 (note 20th year). The couple
had a violent marriage and one of their two kids died. She left her husband and returned to Europe in 1905
where, as an exotic dancer, a nude belly dancer, she went to Paris to work in a brothel.
Saturn, placed with Rahu and the Moon in 5H of love and desire, aspects the 7H of marriage – she
acquired a spouse much older than herself who most likely had previous relationships. 7L Mars occupies
the 10H of happiness from marriage and is conjunct the Sun (11L of marriage as well - BPHS) and Mercury
(9L of religious ceremonies and 12L of loss and private comforts (or discomforts).
2
Publisher: Note 8L of sex and that too Venus which represents sensuous activity is in 9H of priest and father figure.
716
Thus you can see she married an elderly man (Saturn) as compared to her age by Saturn’s 3rd aspect
in her 20th year. Actually the 20th year started just 25 days after her marriage (one can note that Saturn is
retrograde – Vakri)
Chart # 7: Bill Cosby
American actor and comedian, the nation’s top TV and live performance humorist for his
familiarity and likeability. His series "The Cosby Show" first played on 20th Sept 1984 and won Emmys the
following two years. Friendly, congenial, wholesome and beloved, he puts on a show that focuses on family
and kids with no trace of violence, sexual or racial humour. He dropped out of school and served in the U.S.
Navy from 1956 for four years before he finished his high school degree, winning a scholarship to Temple
University. Along with making the dean's list, he ran track and played varsity football. He began stand-up
comedy while at Temple, working for $5 a night at a small club. He tended bar at the Philadelphia cafe to
help meet college expenses and his first nightclub appearance was in a room so small that he had to sit
while performing.
717
Saturn, placed in his Pisces Ascendant casts its 3H aspect on the sign of Taurus conjunct Venus and
Ketu. As the 3H is a place of changes and Ketu, a definite agent for surprises is placed in Rohini, a watery
Moon Nakshatra, he went from school to the Navy, a period of his life where his Venusian propensities as
an artist started blossoming in public. You can see that his 20th year will be from July 1956 to July 1957
whence he joined the Navy. This again was the seed of the event of his life. One can refer to the editorial
and refer the Ketu technique, here Ketu sits in the 3H of TV and he made his mark in Television shows.
Chart #8: George H. W. Bush
American politician who served as the President of the United States from 1989-1993. A Yale
graduate in 1948, he went on to become a business executive and owner of Zapata Petroleum. On his 18th
birthday, against the wishes of his parents who wanted him to go on to college, he was sworn into the
Navy. When he got his wings in August 1943, he was the Navy's youngest pilot. By the time he emerged
from the service two years later, he was a war hero. On 2nd Sept 1944, he nearly died when his torpedo
bomber, nicknamed "Barbara" for his girl friend, took a hit over the Pacific island of Chichi Jima. With the
plane on fire, he flew on to drop his bombs on target. He stayed at the controls, hoping his two crewmen
could parachute to safety, but both died. Bailing out over the ocean, Bush was picked up within two hours
by an American submarine. He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and three air medals.
Saturn is in the 3H of flying and short trips, as 6th lord of fighting & also 7L of forefront, apart from being
dispositor of Mars & Ketu (Fire/mishaps) casts its 3H aspect on the brave, fiery & fighting sign of
Sagittarius, his 5H of name, fame and past good deeds & this 3rd aspect will implement itself in the 20th year
which will be from June 1943 to June 1944, whereas the incident happened 4th months after the 20th year.
Chart #9: Emilie Dervilliers
French teenager, age 18 when she and three other local teens desecrated the Toulon cemetery. In the
early hours of 09th June 1996, the four kids brought up the body of Yvonne Foin, who had been buried
twenty years prior, on 11th June 1976. With ideology that is somewhat vague and borders around Satanism
and Hitlerism, they performed satanic rituals on the cadaver, including necrophilia. Emilie said she
718
experienced a great thrill. They all admitted a ferocious hatred for human beings. Her 20th year would be
from May 97 to May 98 & they went before the courts and were sentenced on 20th Oct 1997 (20th year).
Emilie was sentenced to three years in jail (one year suspended). Emilie was accompanied by two boys,
cousins, and a fourth youth who was a minor and not identified.
Saturn sits in the 3H of actions (her actions) and aspects Libra, the 5H who’s Lord occupies the 12H of
secret yearnings, seclusion, jails and hospitals. This girl was sentenced to go to jail and has hopefully
benefited from some medical treatments. Note that Saturn’s 3rd aspect is on a Venusian sign, Venus is the
karaka of mantra, tantra as per Vedic astrology and her satanic kind of rituals would have been also
representative of negative tantra.
Chart #10: Nathalie Wood
American actress, one of the few child stars who was able to make the transition from child roles to
teenage and adult roles. One of the most universally popular actresses of her generation, she was petite,
dark and attractive. Natalie' love life was active and complicated. She married actor Robert Wagner in 1957
when she was 19.
719
Saturn is placed in the 7H of marriage & its 20th year 3H aspect falls on the sign of Taurus, the 9H
of religious ceremonies where Ketu (karmic surprises & also marriage) sits. She duly married and
legitimately benefited according to the laws of men from the 9th Lord’s position in the 12H of private
affairs. She married actor Robert Wagner in 1957 when she was 19.
Chart #11: Woody Allen
American comedian, writer, actor and film director, screenwriter, playwright and musician, gifted
and appealing. He was the writer and director of the 1977 film "Annie Hall" which won four Oscars in 1978.
At 19, he married a 17-year-old student, Harlene Rosen. The marriage lasted five years.
If you love her, just marry her right? This is what Mr. Allen did at 19 years when 5L of love Saturn aspected
the sign of Aries in the 8H which is not at all strange since therein sits the Moon, Lord of the 11H of wife
(BPHS) or, if you like, Lord of the 5H of desire from the 7H of spouse which leads us to assume that the
chosen girl was quite willing. And guess what? The Moon occupies Venus’ constellation! Moreover,
Jupiter, the good 7L, aspects such a Moon from the 2H of family life, sanctioning the sound of the wedding
bells in the 20th year with Saturn’s 3rd aspect.

By
O ne bows to Lord Ganapati & Sage Bhrighu, who is the repository of knowledge and
has the highest knowledge in Jyotish and submit this at their holy feet. This
technique was discussed in previous editorials and has been mentioned in this
editorial too. In order that it engrains within all readers it was decided to present it here.
Although it looks simple technique but a) it is not so b) ones basics need to be super strong
that can only be acquired after reading each and every classic available c) there is much more
to it but in order that the first steps are clearly grasped it is presented in short here.
Bhava Sutra Series

BSP-14: Past Life Bhava Technique
Some of the rules of decipheration are:-
14 a) Note the sign in the Asc House, this sign is most important and contains all keys.
14 b) Note the sign number in which the Asc Bhava is placed, go to its corresponding house in the
chart this will be the Bhava From Past. You can call this for terminology’s sake ‘Past Life House’ or
‘Renaissance Bhava’ or ‘Bhrighu Bhava’. Note its significations (karakas), its lordship where it sits,
aspects and conjunctions on this house and its lord and the arudhas placed there in. The energy from
the Asc does get carried away to the Bhrighu Bhava, mark this.
14 c) Note the association of this sign number house called ‘Past Life House’ or its lord from Moon
Asc or the Arudha Lagna Asc
721
14 d) If for e.g. Asc is Virgo and the 6H of the chart is occupied or effected by hardcore
fundamentalist malefics, it’s not at all good – this is an unknown technique but very effective.
It has been noticed that unless the full life story of an individual one can’t get the taste of this technique
and at times it has been noticed that this technique just does not work so smoothly unless all factors are
taken into consideration which only an experienced astrologer can do so, also the technique though
looking simple is a ‘Concealed Technique’ and not easily decipherable. Before we go into this we
remember what mentor always asks us a question and it is unanswered so far by our ancients, the
question he asks upon seeing any chart is ‘Why is this native given so and so Lagna in this life by God? First
find out the answer to that question, it is the very basis of Astrology’. If you really ponder over this question
for a long time like a Sage you would realise that it is an extremely Profound Question posed by mentor.
We pondered over it for years & the technique presented below does not answer that question directly
but hope so touches it slightly indirectly and makes mentor happy. One must not assume that the term Past
Life Bhava is what the Bhava was in the past life; it (Bhrighu Bhava) means the most important Karma that
would come from some life/lives into this Life.
Let us test this on few known & unknown charts
Chart 1: Sri Ram
Note the sign it is Cancer (No 4), where Moon (Mother) and Jupiter dispositor of Rahu
(Brahmin Asura) is sitting. This particular energy from the Asc sign will be carried to the No 4 Bhava of this
chart which will be the Past Life House (PLH) or Bhrighu Bhava. This Brighu Bhava is in the 4H of throne
& mother, 3rd from it is the house of step mother where Rahu (cheating) is situated, he got cheated out
of his rightful heir ship to the throne by his step mother. Note the 8L of inheritance is also placed in the
4H of Bhrighu Bhava, the whole story of his life ‘Started’ due to inheritance issues and we astrologers
know the importance of the ‘Start Of An Issue’ and how it dominates/re-writes the whole life of an
individual. When Saturn gets associated with 4H or 4L there is ‘chances’ of step treatment in any
signification of that bhava or step mother as Saturn gives the step factor in life is known by astrologers.
So Saturn in 4H of Mother of Bhrighu Bhava shows some karma associated with step mother.
The next step is to see the Lord of this Bhrighu Bhava or Past Life House or Issues coming from
past life and you will see that the lord is Venus placed in the 9H of marriage, father, king and Venus is
karaka of woman. In all 4 areas woman, marriage, father, becoming a King he had major karma pending,
do you see now how easily this can be seen, note the Past Life House and its lord and you get the major
karma of Shri Ram. Another easy way to decipher this chart is, note the Bhrighu Bhava it is in the sign
of Libra, which is balance and it was for Shri Ram to teach the noble act of the King always remaining
balanced (throne issues) and note its lord Venus in 9H of father and bhagya and marriage, he showed to
722
Indians and established the Dharma of One Wife Dharma (in those days kings and men used to ahve
many wives) and showed us the path of Dharma which Indians till today follow their actions (try to) in
the footsteps of Shri Ram. He killed Ravana and established Dharma (BB lord in 9H) and he showed
that the words of father & mother are always to be respected (BB in 4H & its lord in 9H) and thus gave
up his kingdom.
Note the lord of PLH (Past Life House) is aspected by Jupiter the 6L of enemies and dispositor
of Rahu (Ravana) and here also there was major karma pending and the cause of Shri Rams birth. Thus
you can use Past Life House or Renaissance House or Bhrighu Bhava and see the ‘Cause of Your Birth’,
‘Why you are born’ in seconds if you are an expert astrologer. You will obviously not get the exact
words to predict but the vibration of the soul for this life from this technique which so far no technique
in Indian Astrology gives successfully.
Chart 2: MJ
The sign in the Asc Bhava is Aquarius which is 11 number sign, so go to 11H of achievement
where the Sagittarius sign is sitting in the 11H of achievements which is his ‘Past Life Bhava’. The
duality of this sign is wherever this sign is placed in the chart of any individual one would find some
‘Revolution’ /Revolutionary Ideas’ or if uncontrolled this sign destroys that house. Now come back to MJs
chart, the lord of this 11H is Jupiter placed in the 9H of king (western astrology & Chandrakala nadi) in
a Venusian Sign. This 9H contains Jupiter & Rahu both expansive planet and Rahu means
international. This 9H is 4th (throne) from Venus (Music) and 3rd (singing) from Mars (3L of singing).
Thus he became known as the King Of Pop.
This 9H is also of father & has Rahu, so his father would be the cause of his fortune which was
exactly the case, without his father he would not have achieved it. See 9H is also the house of mentor
and it is with Dragons head - Rahu (cheating/break of relations) and his mentor Quincy Jones was also
the cause of his great albums and the Dragons head thing happened between them. 9H is also the house
of religion and over there the planet of religion Jupiter is sitting and Rahu (change) in Indian astrology
shows Other Castes and particularly some astrologers use it to denote Muslims. Thus, Michael changed
his religion to Islam and towards the end of his life was attracted towards Hinduism. Jupiter is also the
significator of Children and Rahu denotes cheating and scandals, this is what happened in his life. 9H is
the Resultant House of the 5H of love and children and he was so much in love with children.
Dispositors dispositor is a technique that was revealed by Late J N Bhasin and here the dispositor of
Jupiter is Venus (women) and it is in the 6H of divorce and legal settlements and loss of money
(Venus). This part of the story everyone knows and need not be explained in detail. Thus you can see
how this quick Snap Shot Of Life can be seen.
723
Now use BSP 14 a) & b), check the lord of this Past Life Bhava which is Jupiter and its relation
with Moon and Arudha Lagna, from Moon it is again in the
Chart 3: B V Raman
The Asc Bhava contains the sign of Aquarius, the sign of achievement and biggest hurdles and also the
sign of Jyotish. The number in the Asc Bhava is 11, so go to the 11H of the chart; it is again the house of
Jyotish and the sign of Sagittarius. This is his Bhrighu Bhava. If you see our note above on MJs chart
we mentioned that Sagi sign is the sign of Revolution and Dr B V Raman chartered the biggest
revolution in Indian Astrology without coming from an 800-1000 year parampara. This Bhava is the
Past Life Bhava as mentioned earlier and its lord Jupiter is in the 10H of Karma in the occult sign of
Scorpio aspected by a powerful Moon who is the 6L of competition & wars & the 12L of
‘UnFinished Past Life Business’ Saturn aspects the lord of Past Life Bhava Jupiter.
Thus you can decipher Dr Ramans Karma now as the lord of Past Life House shows his Karma
(10H) of removing Jyotish out (Jupiter a graha of light in Sc) for the common man and making great
predictions of war (Moon 6L) and crushing competition. Thus within a second an astute astrologer can
decipher your karma in seconds with this BSP-14 technique.

A10
A2
The sign in the 1H is Virgo, the sign that Inspires Others let us not forget this. It is the 6th house
in the natural zodiac and hence this sign signifies diseases and accidents. The 6H of the natural zodiac
724
1
also shows the back bone and you would know that JFK had a huge problem with back pain from an
early age and had to be operated upon if we are not wrong. Now as the sign in Asc is Virgo, the number
of it is 6, in order to find the ‘Past Life Bhava’ or ‘Renaissance Bhava’ you go to the 6H of natal chart of
JFK. This 6H has A9 & A10, he was the King of the country. 6H is house of accidents, diseases (back
pain) and the word used by Parasara is Sapatni which means mistress (Monroe and others). The lord of
this Past Life Bhava is Saturn or Rahu. Saturn sits in the 11H of highest achievement and Rahu is more
of a co-lord for Aquarius as in trine to it there are more planets and it has A6 (accidents) and A2
(family/speech) and Rahu is placed in 4H of vehicles, his death & speech are more famous and became
the central part of his life for generations to come as he died whilst he was with family (A2) in a car (4H
Rahu lord of Past Life Bhava) and Rahu means the assassin as explained in the editorial and he was
assassinated.
Now this chart again purposely, Virgo is the sign, number 6, so go to 6H of chart which is the
Past Life House of Kennedy and this 6H shows diseases and mistress, those were central to his life, then
go to lord Rahu which is in 4H of vehicles with A2 (family) and A6 (accident), so you see in 2 secs that
mistresses, health problems and death via assassins kind of Karma is coming from Past Life of this
native.
The Key of the great astrologers that have been observed by us is he uses rare techniques but does not get
lost with multiple techniques or observations that he sees in a chart, just keeps his Focus on what He Should See &
forgets the rest momentarily, that either is inborn or comes through practice and if you are unfortunate to learn
1000 dasas in Kaliyuga you are doomed though it was not so 3000 years back when the intelligence level of humans
was better in jyotish due to the type of training given in Gurukul & purity of student as well as Guru.
Chart 5: Close Ones Son
A3
A3
This is a chart it pains us to see as it involves someone we know whose sons chart this is. Note the sign
it is Leo, which is the 5th house of the natural zodiac that shows one’s mind. Now find out the Past Life
House of the chart, as sign number in Asc is 5, so you go to 5H of this chart which has Sagi and thus it
becomes the Past Life House of this chart. It contains the 6L Saturn (note retro) with A3 (short journey)
and this Saturn is dispositor of Mars & Rahu (note this) and now remember BSP 14 d)
14 d) If for e.g. Asc is Virgo and the 6H of the chart is occupied or effected by hardcore
fundamentalist malefics, it’s not at all good – this is an unknown technique but very effective.
1H is brain and 6th/7th house is hip, more of 7H. The boy was on his bike (A3) at the signal waiting for
signal to turn green so that he could take a U turn, behind him came speeding car which banged him and
1
His Asc Lord Mer is in the 8H of chronic diseases with Mars hence back pain.
725
boy got major fractures in the hip region and as we write this (Nov 13th 2009) is in Coma (Saturn retro)
since 13 days and the doctors having given up.
People have confused Moola Dasa to time Curses from past life which they earlier taught (but
changed rule later) that when a planet is aspected by 2 malefics then that planet has a curse and Moola
Dasa is to be used to time curses. But Varahamihira used to use Moola Dasa and our study has shown
that Moola Dasa can be used for ‘Everything’ as earlier discussed in previous writings of Mentor No 3
with the Pandit of Trayambakeshwar wherein the Pandit laughed on what we call Moola Dasa and said
there are 12/14 types of Moola Dasa.
Moola Dasa (dasa showing the root of events - past karma):
Mars MD /Rah AD: 2009-Sept-05 - 2009-Dec-12
The Mahadasha is Mars and the Antar Dasa is Rahu when the accident happened and native went in
coma, you may note that the dispositor of these two planets Mars and Rahu is Saturn who is sitting in
the Past Life Bhava. Do you see how powerful this technique is, ofcourse on dramatic charts where
dramatic events happen most techniques seem to work and on charts which is life less all techniques do
not seem to appear fascinating.
Chart 6: Mahatma Gandhi
Note the sign Libra rising in the Asc, whose symbol is Libra, Gandhi was a very balanced man
but irrational in certain areas of life with his own mind (Mars Venus Mer in Asc). Note the number of
the Asc Sign it is No 7, so go to the 7H of this chart which is the ‘Bhrighu Bhava’, which has 3L of
writing, action and 6L of fighting Jupiter in the Past Life House of Aries (Leader). Now note Jupiter is a
Brahmin Graha which is retrograde. So instead of raising weapons to fight the Britishers he developed
his nuclear bomb called Satyagraha which meant non-cooperation movement and you can see how
wisely (Jupiter) he implemented it. 6L of fighting in Past Life House, he was meant to fight, now fight
whom is the question, against whom was he fighting and doing this Karma of Satyagraha. So now you
see from which house does this Jupiter of Past Life Bhava become the Karma House (10th), it becomes so
from Moon & Rahu, now who is this Moon (Queen of Planets) & Rahu (Foreigners) – was it against the
British Empire, yes his Karma was against the British Empire. Do you now see the Power of this Past
Life House and how beautifully it shows and unravels the reason why you are here, what you are going
to do.
Now use BSP 14 c)
14 c) Note the association of this sign number house called ‘Past Life House’ or its lord from Moon
Asc or the Arudha Lagna Asc
726
You can see that this Jupiter of Past Life Bhava which is in the 7H of Public Platform & Masses is in
the 10th house of Father Status from Moon Asc and Arudha Asc, making it DOUBLY powerful and thus
he is called the Father of the Nation. Most important is it is also in the 10th from Rahu, the planet of
immortality, thus for time immemorial he will become and stay the Father of the Nation this was the
Karma (10th from Rahu) that he brought in this life (via Past Life House).
Let’s come back to Jupiter who is the 6L of fighting and revolt, now when ‘All’ can this Jupiter give
result of the fighting that Gandhi is going to do is the next question. The age of Jupiter as you all know
is 32 years plus minus 1-2 years for being retro. Now Gandhi returned from South Africa to India on 1915
and then started fighting the British Empire in India. So let’s roughly add 1915 + 32 = 1947 which is the
year when his fighting bore results and India got her freedom.
Readers can use the lord of Past Life House, Mars and see its association with other planets and come to
major conclusion as to his fasting (2L Mars) and his method of driving the Britishers crazy and so on.
Chart 7: Friend
The chart belongs to someone who is in a Govt job and earning around Rs 20,000 per month ($400). The
native though now is doing fine but has deep scars of whole childhood going in poverty and all his
actions are taking place due to these scars. His sister married a rich guy but ugly and when asked why
she did so, she openly says due to his money and her husband also knows it that it’s only due to his
money she married.
When we saw this chart we saw the sign Sc in the Asc with Rahu (cheating) & Mars (land) in it.
So we went to Past Life House and saw Saturn over there and retrograde and then saw this PLH (past
life house) from Moon is in the 9th house of father. We did not predict but realized that native must not
have gotten land property as we combined the Asc Sign and the Past Life House i.e. Rahu (cheating &
grandfather) & Mars (land) with Saturn. The native on his own said that land worth some hundreds of
crores (several million dollars) was not given to them and it was an inheritance issue (8H is house of
inheritance where PLH is there) and it was due to his grandfather (Rahu) they got cheated (Rahu) of
property (Mars) and it all went to natives fathers younger brother (11L) which is Mercury and Mercury
is the Lord of Gemini the Past Life House and also Mercury is karaka of relatives. Now the grandfather
(rahu) died of paralysis, her uncle (Mer) died of cancer but still the property will not be equally shared
among all, this is the Karma of Past Life House of this native.
Chart 8: Obama
727
Let us take a chart which is not easy to decipher and it took us a long time to decipher due to our
inexperience. At the same time unless you keep it simple you can get lost in this chart or any other
especially when the whole story is not known.
The sign in the Asc is Capricorn, the sign of Karma in Natural Zodiac and Father figure, which
is what he has become. Note the number of Capricorn which is No 10 and go to the 10th House of the
chart which becomes the Past Life House having Libra and AL (self coming out) and this house is the
house of Karma and Father and Govt. Now Libra is a sign of balance and this is in the Past Life House,
note this and think on it.
What is the need of the hour, it is to create balance (Libra) out of the imbalance in money
(Venus) in the world today and that’s the job of Obama not only in America but in the world as the
American economy dominates the whole world. Then what is Libra, sign of just (balanced)
relationships, it is need of the hour for America to stop doing measures by which terrorists have been
indirectly breed and this violence that has emanated must be balanced, this is the Karma of the Past Life
House of Obama. His Karma is to bring this balance in this world and though this is a philosophical
statement but only after reading a lot of blogs and papers one can realize that this is what people hope
out of Obama to bring that change (Venus is in Gemini the natural 3H of zodiac) and thus this Venus
lord of the PLH in Gemini in 3H of zodiac which is the house of ‘Unlocking of Karma’ is what this man
is expected to do, that’s what the whole of America believes in him to perform to Unlock their Karma,
Unwind the wrongs that America did in the past and make it all balanced (Libra) for that Obama has
been sent.
As a side note, PLH lord Venus is in the 6H of fighting in the sign Gemini (writing & speech)
and this Venus is also the lord of the 5H of authorship. Which means the Lord of the 5H of authorship
Venus got activated and when he wrote something called father (Venus is 10L of PLH) his Karma got
activated and he became the King (Mer is also 9L of King).
Chart 9: Bill Gates

This is a very simple chart to interpret the Bhrighu Bhava which comes in the 3H as the Asc is
Gemini so we see the 3 No house in the chart which is in this case Leo. Bhrighu Bhava comes the sign
Leo, the King. Now in the Renaissance House there is Jupiter who is the 7L of Public Limelight and
Business & 10L of Profession and Jupiter is expansive but it is with Mandi. The 3H is associated with
communications and computers and this Jupiter is in nakshatra of Ketu (karaka of software) and thus he
created Microsoft and Windows and became famous and a King in that since it is the sign Leo.
728
Why famous since the Past Life House lord Sun is placed in 5h of fame with 8L Saturn and
aspected by Rahu hence if he does anything hanky panky his organization will be split which is what
happened. This dispositor of Renaissance House is conjunct a powerful Venus who is swagrahi and is
the 12L of charity, so money gained out of this software project will also be donated by him and his wife
(Venus) and more fame gained (5H).
Readers are requested to test this technique more aggressively first on famous charts and then on
unknown charts and only then accept or reject it. May this technique be placed at the holy feet of Sage
Bhrighu and Mentor.

Graha Sutra Series – Shukra Reveals
By
O ne can, if one is honest to oneself observe after spending 50-60 years in astrology that
somewhere down the line we have missed the basics and our understanding of grahas, rasis and
houses is grossly incomplete. Modern trends in astrology make us delve deeper into 40-50
dasas, 20 divisional charts and 15 different lagnas but we miss seeing the most basic and apparent thing
in a chart. It has been observed that if ones basics is good then one can make stunning predictions far
superior than using so many dasas and thereby these basics helps us to understand ‘What is happening
in a Chart’. The Core Team of Saptarishis Astrology long back had realised that our own basics are very
poor and decided to concentrate on it. In this endeavour we discovered details on grahas which we
realised where not known even to the seasoned scholar or mentioned in classics. Below is an example of
what we call Mota Mota Technique, which means a Broad-Broad methodology which need not be
blindly applied but it shows us some special role of the graha that has been unrevealed by any parampara
so far, when blindly applied it has worked on 50% of the chart straight away in a very easy manner, 30%
in a bit complicated manner but for a seasoned astrologer it would not be called a complicated technique
as he is used to complex methodologies & in 20 % of the cases it probably failed due to our own lack of
understanding of basics. Ideally such techniques must not be openly revealed until the student has
forgotten his chart, lost interest in mundane life but it is only being revealed so that one accepts that our
understanding of Jyotisha is far limited, stops wasting his energy into finding 70 dasas or complicated
methodologies and tries to dig deeper into understanding planets first as its the very foundation of
astrology
One must also be warned about it that they must not take this for blind prediction but for
understanding a newer aspect of the graha in this case Shukra – Venus as mostly astrologers worldwide
associate with Venus only sensuousness, material life and money gain. The style of writing of this
article is filmy so that readers don’t forget the method & also a bit loosely constructed so that ones who
do not follow the Jyotish Purusha rules may forget. This series is started with Venus as he is the son of
the Sage Bhrighu on whose holy feet we submit this technique for more clarification before bowing to
Lord Ganapati.
730
Graha Sutra Series – Shukra Reveals
Shukra -Venus says ‘The house where I am given shelter or the lord I conjoin with or the lord of the house I
represent will show where I can, I repeat I can & not will (100 %) contribute to the
a) Medical expenses or Diseases
b) At times Death
c) Peeda (Dramatic Troubles)
He further says ‘If I am in mood then the 12th from where I am placed could be hit by me & you would be forced to
get the Sanjeevani (Miracle Herb) Bhuti for the problem but if my blessings are not there then you would not get
it. All the above results will no doubt depend on other conditions but still would affect it out atleast mildly
irrespective of the conditions’
Let us recapitulate the conditions in BSP-15 as BSP-15a, BSP-15b & so on
a) Observe the position house of Venus or the Lord it combines with and that lord’s house
ownership or the house Venus is lord of.
b) This Venus will indicate the diseases or medical expenses that you would spend in this life.
c) At times it can also indicate the nature of death.
d) At times it can also indicate the ‘Dramatic Troubles - Peeda’ that you would face in your life.
e) Irrespective of the sign it is placed in whether of friend or enemy or exaltation or dispositor well
or ill placed or nakshatra lord well or ill placed still this Venus can give results if it wishes.
f) Venus can also afflict the 12th from it.
g) Karakas in both cases of Venus and/or the conjoining lord must be used effectively.
Let us test these principles enumerated above on some charts bearing in mind that of a total of 24 charts
only few are taken here which are exhibiting straight forward results for readers to understand. Would
try to avoid nakshatra lordship in the explanation although it is a must to use it to understand this
technique on complex charts.
Chart 1: Robert Altman – American Film Producer
731
Venus the 8th lord of chronic diseases is sitting in the 4H of ‘Heart’ along with surgery (Ketu)
and hospitalization (Mer 12L). The dispositor of this Venus is exalted in a Sasa Mahapurusha Yoga still
as per the promise of Venus he underwent a Heart Transplant in 1990s & died November 20, 2006 in Los
Angeles of complications of cancer; he was 81. He had been diagnosed with the disease 18 months prior
to his death. With a satirical eye for the American way of life and a stylistic naturalism, he delivered
unique films, more than 30 movies by 1987. He had a history of minor features and TV work behind him
when M.A.S.H. established his reputation. Thus you can see that BSP-15a can give you an instant idea
to double check heart diseases if Venus is found in the 4H if other factors support.
Chart 2: Borgatti, Giuseppe – Italian Opera Singer
A2, A8,
A6
A2, A8,
A6
Both eyes are represented in general by 2H and its lord Sun (good sun shows good eyes) is with exalted
Venus so shouldn’t it give great eyesight and that too when Venus is in its exaltation degree, so how
come he went blind suddenly in the middle of a performance at La Scala in 1913 & never recovered his
sight. One can say that this Sun-Venus combo is in the 8th from 2H of eyes but that’s just one point &
not enough to give such dramatic results, but if you use Venus rule of Sage Bhrighu, then you can see
that Venus has given him blindness. Venus in Indian mythology became blind (remember Bali
episode).
From parasari angle, 6L of disease Jupiter is sitting in the 2nd sign of Taurus which signifies Eyes & also
Venus is dispositor of A6 (disease), A8 (chronic) & A2 (eyes).
Italian tenor opera singer and teacher, noted for his renditions of Wagner. He made a debut at
Castelfranco Veneto in 1893. Borgatti died 18-Oct-1950, Milan, Italy.
Chart 3: Adelman, Kenneth Lee – American Govt Official.
Venus is placed in the 11H (the resultant house of disease) along with Mercury which signifies skin.
Thus you can see that this Venus has given him Chronic Eczema thus his medical expenses went this
way as per BSP-15 b.
American government official, appointed in January 1983 by President Reagan as Director of the U.S.
Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, a nomination rejected by the Foreign Relations Committee.
Adelman had served in several government capacities, was a senior political scientist with the Stanford
Research Institute, and authored a book, "African Realities."
732
Chart 4: Aitken, Jonathan– British MP.
Venus is the 3rd lord of lungs posited in the 12H of bed and is the dispositor of the 6L of diseases
activating the 6H, he was bed ridden for 3 years with T.B.
British politician, a Member of Parliament returned at the General Election of 11th June 1987. A
respected politician who attained the post of Chief Secretary to the Treasury, he was subjected to
allegations by the Guardian publications of traveling down a dark road of concealment, deceit,
perversion and finally, perjury. He responded with a defamation suit and a fight that lasted 3 1/2 years
before he was brought to justice. He declared insolvency to his creditors and on 10th May 1999, declared
bankruptcy. Jonathan Aitken was sentenced to 18 months prison on 08th June 1999.
Chart 5: West, Dottie – American Country Western Singer.

American country-western singer, composer and songwriter. She is known for "Would You Hold It
Against Me" and "Paper Mansions" along with many famous duets with Kenny Rogers, Jim Reeves and
other noted singers. Big-hearted and caring, she helped many new artists get ahead.
733
You can see that Venus is in the 12H of hospitalization & being bed ridden and as per BSP-15 represents
diseases & medical bills; it is with Jupiter (Liver) and Ketu (surgery).
Around late June or early July 1991, she was hospitalized for several days after a traffic accident she had
while exiting the driveway to her apartment complex. Then, on 31st Aug 1991, while being driven to
perform at the Grand Ole Opry by a neighbour, George Thackston, 80, the car he was driving went out
of control just before 8:00 P.M. on a Nashville parkway's elevated exit ramp.
The car crashed nose down onto the roadway below. Doctors operated twice, removing her spleen and
trying to repair her ruptured liver. She died during a third liver operation on 4th Sept 1991 when her
heart failed due to massive blood loss. You can see that Jupiter is the karaka of Liver and also is the 4L
of heart (not 5L).
Chart 6: Agnelli, Giovanni – Italian Industrialist, the Head of Fiat
734
Italian industrialist, the head of Fiat since 1966, an auto empire established by grandfather, Giovanni.
The chart owner Agnelli, Giovanni died of Prostate Cancer. His father, Edoardo, died in an airplane
accident in 1935 and his mother, Virginia, died in an auto accident in November 1945.
Diverting here from our said technique, his father and mothers fate can be seen with Venus Ketu in the
5H (maraka for mother) & 8th from 10H of father and Jupiter Saturn together (previous BSP method of
Aries spoilt), which means 8th from 10H of father and 9th (bhagya-also end) from 9th house of father.
Now let’s revisit the chart owner who died of Prostate Cancer. First use previous Bhrighu rule Saturn
Jupiter Together, Aries is destroyed, see it working here Aries is where Venus is placed and you would
only require Sanjeevani Bhuti (life reviving herb mentioned in Ramayana) for it. As you know
whenever Aries is destroyed the physical health of the native is destroyed and there is a dramatic disease
(basics of Natural Zodiac horoscopy - Kala Purusha horoscopy). He suffered from prostate cancer which
is near the rectum which is an 8H matter or 8th sign that is Scorpio disorder, the lord of it is Mars or
Ketu. See now Mars is with Moon the 8th lord and the other co-lord Ketu is with Venus in Aries sign.
He is unfortunately attacked from all angles and from Sc (prostate) the 6th house of disease is where
Venus (BSP-15) and Ketu (incurable disease) is present, so Prostate Cancer. He died of Prostate Cancer
on 24th Jan 2003 when Moola Dasa of Rahu/Sat/Ven (see) was running and Vim Dasa of Jup/Ketu/Jup
- see Ketu’s role is already established with Ketu Venus together and Ketu being the lord of Sc, Jupiter is
retro and goes to 8H of prostate thereby aspects Sc.
Chart 7: Aiazzone, Piergiorgio – Italian native
Venus is in the 6H of accidents along with Lagna Lord and the chart is of an Italian fatality, killed in a
plane crash in bad weather 06th July 1986; survived by a wife and two kids. By Parasari Venus is 2nd
maraca lord but it is so difficult to determine who is maraca in each lagna though previous authors have
sounded it off as an easy task.
Chart 8: Almond, Marc – British Entertainer

British entertainer, the flamboyant homosexual singer of the ’80’s band, "Soft Cell." Teamed with Dave
Ball, Anthony gained a cult following with hits like "Tainted Love," which went to No.1 in August 1981,
and "Say Hello, Wave Goodbye," 1982.
735
Use BSP-15 instantly and you can see that Venus (cars) is in the 2nd house of maraca with Mars (speedy
cars & accidents) and thus on October 17, 2004, the British singer sustained severe injuries when the
motorcycle on which he was a passenger crashed into a car in London. Almond underwent surgery and
is expected to make a full recovery.
Chart 8: Addey, John – British Author of Harmonics In Astrology
British theorist and researcher, the founder and developer of modern harmonics and author of
"Harmonics in Astrology" 1976. At 23 he was struck down overnight by ankylosing spondylitis, a kind of
acute rheumatism. 23 as per Bhrighu Chakra Paddathi (BCP) means 11H where Venus (BSP-15) is with
Asc Lord, Moon so body problem can be anticipated as per BSP-15 and that is what happened to him.
After a year flat on his back, he joined a mystery school and moved into his life position of being a
mystic, a philosopher and a mathematician. A permanent cripple with calcified spine, he walked with
canes. His best known work is Harmonics In Astrology and a great contribution to western astrology is
736
what we are told, as you can see After the 23rd year got activated in BCP and thus Venus also got
activated as per BSP-15, the Venus did what it does best, Shukracharya (Venus) does Jyotish especially
since it is in the 11H of astrology. Note the Amk & PK great combo in the 11H of astrology.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Addey_%28astrologer%29 .
Earlier we did mention not to ignore nakshatra lordship but have avoided using it in order to keep the
Kiss principle, the above chart owner suffered rheumatism, some take Saturn as the karaka for
rheumatism for various reasons, one logic given is as it sets mainly in most cases in the old age it is
signified by Saturn who is old. If you see above chart Saturn’s nakshatra lord is Venus our principle
graha of this article.
Chart 9: Adams, Douglas – British Sci-Fi Writer
A6
A6
British sci-fi writer known for his wacky "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy," a 1979 cult favourite. It
was turned into a book, which sold 14 million copies around the world, and later into a television series.
He died of a heart attack on 11th May 2001 at age 49, Santa Barbara, CA.
4H is house of heart, 3rd, 6th, 8th & 11th (note these 3) from it will determine the health of the heart
especially the 6H of disease from it which is the 9H where in this chart Venus along with A6 (disease)
is sitting with Rahu (sudden) and Sun (karaka for heart) and 12th from Mer the 4L of heart. For those
who take 5H of heart, here Venus is the 5L of heart with Sun karaka of heart.
Chart 10: Black, Shirley Temple – American Actress
American actress, child actress, the most famous in history from age three, and politician. She made
films from 1932-1950, avoiding the usual downfalls of self-destruction or pretension. Her films included
"Little Miss Marker," "Heidi" and "Curley Top." She left an archive of 40 films and 50 one-hour TV
shows.
In 11/1972, she survived the upset of breast cancer and had a radical mastectomy. 4H is the house of
breasts and 2nd from it is the maraca house that is 5H where in her chart Venus is sitting. No doubt
with normal parasari one can see that 6L of diseases Mars is placed in the 4H of breasts so she would get
some disease re breasts. If you do not want to use the maraca of the 4H and want to see the disease to
737
the breasts then use BSP-15f and Venus sitting in the 5H will affect its results to the 12th from it which is
the 4H of breasts giving her breast cancer.
Breasts is 4H so Cancer sign in natural zodiac should be afflicted and its lord Moon is in the 8H of
chronic diseases, apart from this moon also signifies milk, well she got breast cancer.
Chart 11: Jesse James – How Death Will Happen
American noted outlaw, famed along with his brother Frank leading a gang in the old west. Noted for
his unerring pistol accuracy, he was a dangerous killer as well as a robber. A huge reward for that time
738
period ($10,000) was placed on his head dead or alive and one of his own gang members shot him in the head,
1
at home with his wife and two small kids . He died immediately, 4/03/1882, St. Joseph, MO.
His time of birth gets a suspect C rating by Roddens. Now see Venus is placed in the sign of
Virgo which is the natural 6th house of servants and subordinates. So Death (Venus) was brought about
by his own sub-ordinate gang member and it is with Rahu that means Cheating, his gang member
cheated him. Venus being 12L of death is in 4H of home, he was shot at his home.
Chart 12: Michael Jackson – Where Death Will Happen
Here we stick with Basil Ferrington reported time of birth. Even if one does not accept that
Venus will still remain in the sign of Cancer which is the 4H of heart and house in the natural zodiac
and the reports in press indicate that he died of cardiac arrest at his house (note that Rahu is in the 4H
from this Venus and later one BSP method of Rahu will be written in future volumes).
It does not mean that all with Venus in the sign of cancer will die at home or of cardiac arrest
since some other stronger graha will take over, this is the key of astrology ‘Who is Stronger of Grahas
To Dominate and take the cake and eat it too’.
Chart 13: Paramhansa Yogananda – How Death Will Happen
Astro data bank takes 20.38 as the time of birth with this note ‘Mercury Hour, 7/1976, quotes his ashram,
the Self Realization Institute. (Gorakhpur is on Madras time. As it is 3 degrees 7 min east of Madras, the
correction of Gorakhpur to Madras is 12 min 28 sec plus, making the time 20:50 LMT. If the LMT
correction had already been made, the original Madras time would have been 20:26 LMT. We are
perhaps safest in assuming that the time as given is LMT.) In that case the lagna degree would be 6Le36,
as we are concerned with the Rasi chart where Venus is in the 4H of heart and house & as per BSP 15
this ‘Can’ be the cause of death. This is on the assumption that the chart is correct, a chart can be wrong
in an article and scholars can spend lifetimes debating it whereas we as students of this science should
be concerned with the underlying principles accuracy, in this context the BSP-15. Now as per
Wikipedia, ‘On March 7, 1952, he attended a dinner for the visiting Indian Ambassador to the U.S.,
Binay Ranjan Sen and his wife at the Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles. At the conclusion of the banquet
Yogananda spoke of India and America, their contributions to world peace and human progress, and
1 Wikipedia gives a different version and says that the widow of Jesse James survived.
739
their future cooperation, expressing his hope for a "United World" that would combine the best qualities
of "efficient America" and "spiritual India."
According to two eyewitnesses—long-time disciples Swami Kriyananda and Daya Mata—as Yogananda
ended his speech, he read from his poem My India, concluding with the words "Where Ganges, woods,
Himalayan caves, and men dream God—I am hallowed; my body touched that sod". At the very last
words, he slid to the floor, dead from a heart attack. Kriyananda wrote that Yogananda had once stated in
a lecture, "A heart attack is the easiest way to die. That is how I choose to die." On March 7, 1952 he was
running the Kalachakra dasa of Sc where Venus is placed and Moola Dasa of Venus.
Lets quickly divert and remind readers of Bhrighu Chakra Paddati, he died in his 60th year which is 12H
as per BCP and its lord is Moon in Asc which means 12L of death on Self (asc) which is what happened
and being Moon who is the natural 4th lord of zodiac –shows quick and 4H is heart, that’s how it
happened.
Use this Venus principle as an exercise for complicated astro methods on the chart of JFK, see where
Venus is, then see if it is the 3L of travelling, no it is not, then see if it is 3L from Moon Asc and sitting at 9H is it
looking at 3H of travel, then see 3rd from this Venus is there Saturn and is this Venus with Jupiter, did he die in
Jup/Saturn dasa. Then use another BSP principle that Andree wrote in previous issue of Jup Saturn together one
thing in Aries is spoilt and use this technique on Dasa of Jup MD-Sat AD, put that into practice and you would
see that Aries will be effected to some extent whenever Jup/Sat or Sat/Jup combos come in dasa and here in JFK
case you would see that Aries is the 8H of longevity where 3L Mars is placed who is lord of travelling and bullet
along with body lord (Asc Lord) Mer. Also note that Jup & Saturn aspect the 5H of children where A8 (death) is
also there and see the link.
Thus it is requested for readers to kindly test this method more blindly at first to verify a chart where
events are known and the chart is 60 plus in age and then use it more effectively. When this technique was shared
with mentor he instantly said he knows a chart where Venus is in the 2H and the person has eye problems and
then we discussed the chart of a famous elderly astrologer writer who has Venus in the 1H along with Mars the
2nd lord and 7th lord, he has problem of diabetes, Venus signifies sweet things and he eats pan - a sweet chewing
product made in India. His Venus is with 7L and he is not married & always strained relations with people (being
factual and not derogatory here), thereby showing the BSP-15 d principle of Peeda – Dramatic Troubles for the
7H. With obeisance to Sage Bhrighu and mentor who always inspires us to go into those areas where others have
not gone before and be ready to face disappointments too, we dedicate this work to beloved mentor.

Copy Editor: 'Kandantham' literally means "end of the piece / compartment". Because, 'Kanda' in sanskrit means a
compartment / section / piece and 'antham' means 'end' / 'final'. As we know, in Vedic Astrology, the entire zodiac is
classified as three compartments as below: Aries to Cancer (carries one complete cycle of 9 stars) Leo to Scorpion (carries one
complete cycle of 9 stars) Sagittarius to Pisces (carries one complete cycle of 9 stars). The starting and ending points of these
signs are identified in terms of Nakshatra Padas/Charanas and known as Kandanthas. Therefore, the starting points of
Aries, Leo and Sagittarius viz. the first quarter of Ashwini, Magha and Moola respectively (all owned by Ketu). Similarly,
the ending points of Cancer, Scorpion and Pisces are the fourth quarter of Ashlesha, Jyeshta and Revati respectively (all are
owned by Mercury). These points, (i.e. Kandantha Stars) are considered as weak based on the following points:
(i) They are situated in Riksha Sandhi i.e. at junctional points of natural zodiac. (ii) They are representing the confluence of
mutually conflicting 'pancha bhutas', viz. water and fire. i.e. Pisces vs Aries, Cancer vs Leo, Scorpion vs Sagittarius.
Thereby, the planets deposited at these places lose their originality. Therefore, the fourth quarter of Revati is certainly
representing Kendantha. This can be substantiated with the Shloka I.22 of Jataka Parijata which runs as "Katak ali
Meenamantham pragandanthamith prasiddham" Here, 'Meenamantham' signifies the fourth quarter of Revati. Of course, the word

Ascending Stars, Descending stars, Neutral Stars

Amirthakadigai Stars & Immortal Stars.
Ascending - Pushyami, Satabhisha, Dhanishta, Rohini, Aridra, Sravana, Uttara,

Uttarashada and Uttarabhadra are ascending stars,
Descending - Pubba, Poorvashada, Poorvabhadra, Krittika, Moola, Makha, Visakha,
Bharani & Aslesha are descending stars,
Neutral - Aswini, Mrigasira, Punarvasu, Hasta, Chitta, Swati, Revati, Anuradha, Jyeshta
are puramuga (inferred to be neutral) stars.
Immortal Stars
The duration of auspicious time will exist for four nazhigai, after forty five nazhigai from
the rise of Moola & Hasta, after Fifty nazhigai from the rise of Aslesha, after fifty Two
nazhigai from the rise of Rohini, after Forty four nazhigai from the rise of Poorvashada,
after forty two nazhigai from the rise of Aswini, after Thirty five nazhigai from the rise of
Aridra, after Thirty four nazhigai from the rise of Pubba,
After Forty eight nazhigai from the rise of Bharani & Uttarabhadra, After Fifty four
Nazhigai from the rise of Krittika, Punarvasu, Makha & Revati, after Thirty eight
Nazhigai from the rise of Mrigasira, Swati, Visakha & Jyeshta, after Forty four nazhigai
from the rise of Pushyami, Chitta & Uttarashada, after Forty two nazhigai from the rise
Of Uttara & Satabhisha,
After Thirty four nazhigai from the rise of Anuradha, Sravana & Dhanishta and after Forty
nazhigai from the rise of Poorvabhadra. Sravana, Pushyami, Revati, Hasta. Anuradha,
Rohini, Uttara, Uttarashada & Uttarabhadra are Sadajeeva (immortal) stars.
'pragandantha' represents here as 'the end of the elbow'. But, in the context of 'a vulnerable part or a critical period' only. In consummate,
I consider the usage of Revati as a Kandantha Star is quite logical.

Publisher: It is very difficult for anyone to write a commentary on this most ancient of classic work,
so the following is just an assumption. See we asked someone who has Swati as birth nakshatra if he
likes cotton he said no but after he gets a job he only wants to wear cotton his whole life, he said this is
his passion since long. We know of a native whose birth star is Purvaphalgnui (Pubba) and
Kumaraswamiyam says for Pubba it is an empty house, this native loves to live alone – that is his
passion.

Bhrighu Pada Dasa

System –A Leaf of
Bhrighu Maharishi
By
Dr K.P.Vaani, India
Dr K.P.Vaani is a Senior Scientist,

Acharya Ranga Agril University
Hyderabad in Andhra Pradesh. She is also a
Jyotish Visharad from ICAS, Secunderabad
B y Divine grace of my Guruji Dr.
Naresh ,Chandigarh and under able
guidance of Shri A.V.Sundaram I’m here
and Faculty cum Academic In Charge at presenting basic treatise on “Pada Dasa
ICAS, Secunderabad. A devoted student of
System of Timing” timing events of
nadi astrology learning it from her Nadi
Teacher Shri A V Sundaram who is the native’s life with Bhrigu cycle of the
National Joint Secretary, ICAS. planets.
There are various predictive tools

available in Jyotish. Among them Bhrigu
Maharishi’s Pada Dasa is an important
technique for predicting or timing an
event. But this method is not practiced for
1
753
want of proper information for application which is due to non availability of literature,
article or texts.
Recently in ICAS-Secunderabad chapter Nadi Course on different levels was
conducted under able co-ordination of Shri A.V.Sundaram an eminent Nadi Researcher and
National Joint Secretary – ICAS. In the course of the study, Bhrigu Pada dasas were
extensively worked out. I am thankful to the authors/speakers especially Shri Tejan Bose
who contributed in Bhrighu Pada System.
To begin with we must find the Arudha Pada of the houses. Arudha Pada also
called as “Pada” and means “Mount” and refers to the image of a sign falling on
another due to reflection of the rays emanating from it and being reflected by its lord.
Computation Of Arudha Padas
Arudha Pada is obtained by counting the number of the houses, the house lord had
moved away from that particular house in question. The house so obtained will be the
“Arudha” for that house under consideration.
For example the pada of the ascendant will correspond to the sign arrived by counting
the number of signs from the ascendant lord ahead from ascendant.
Similarly the padas for 12 bhavas or houses should be computed from the placement
of house lord or lord away from the house.
Therefore the 12 Padas arrived from 12 houses can be termed as follows shown in the Table.1.
House Pada
First House Lagna Pada
Second House Second Pada
Third House Third Pada
Fourth House Fourth Pada
Fifth House Fifth Pada
Sixth House Sixth Pada
Seventh House Seventh Pada
Eighth House Eighth Pada

Exceptions To Rules :
1. If the lord of the house is in the same house the 10th house in question there from can be
treated as its pada . ex. In the above chart, 9th lord is sun in its own house, Simha, therefore
the 9th pada falls in the 10th house from Simha, i.e. Vrishaba.
2. If the lord of the house is in the 7th, pada falls in the opposite house but being Kendra, pada
falls in 10th house from the said house. ,ex. Cancer lagna, the lagna lord falls in the seventh
(Makara),then lagna pada falls in cancer, which is Kendra, hence it should again be shifted
to 10th from it i.e. Mesha.
3. If the lord of the bhava is in the 4th from bhava, then the pada falls in the 7th, since it is
Kendra, it should again be shifted to 10th .Ex. Vrishabha Lagna, LL is in 4th house
(Simha), then lagna pada falls in Vrischika, which is again Kendra, hence it should be
shifted to 10th from it, i.e. Simha again.
4. If the lord of the bhava falls in the 10 th bhava from its place, then the pada falls in the 4th
bhava in question. Ex. Sagittarius Lagna, Mars is the 5th lord, posited in Makara (10th)
therefore the 5th pada falls in the 10th from makara i.e. Thula, which is Kendra hence
pada is shifted again to 10th from Thula which is Cancer thus finally being 4th from Mesha
(bhava in question).

756
After the padas are computed for each bhava, then pada lords for each pada can be
listed.

As per Vedic texts any event in an individual’s life will fructify as per the promise in
the natal chart during the dasas and gochara but as per Bhrigu Pada Dasa Technique the
event will occur when the Pada lord will transit the particular house at that particular age of the life.
This pada dasa system of Bhrigu Maharishi’s corresponds almost to the Metonic
cycle of planets which refers to the return of the planets to the same position of the Zodiac
with respect to the fixed star. Dasa Periods of the planets are derived as per the periodic
revolutions made in the Zodiac to come back to the exact position of the star.

Now that the periods allotted to the planets or the pada lords are seen as above in the table.
Thus the event will be assessed when the pada lords are transiting the sign with the padas.
The procedure for confirming of the event through the pada dasa system using this Metonic
cycle of period is as follows.
From the natal chart compute the 12 padas for 12 houses.

List out the pada lords.
To time any event, calculate the present age of the native.
Also list out the house lords, padas and pada lords related to the particular event.
Then find out the dasa period of the pada lords related to the particular event.
Finally event will be timed when these pada lords at that particular age will be
6
758
influencing the house, house lord, pada and the karaka.
Some Principles Involved In Timing Of Event

Dasa Period of pada lord is directly involved with the event.
Bhrigu system of astrology gives maximum importance to Kendra/Trikonas. Thus
whenever the pada lords are in trine or kendra to the house lords/house or crossing the
house, then the events will be fructified.{ Kendra-Self effort, Trines-Fate}
Lagna pada signifies protection; it will try to protect the native from total effects.
Ex. To time the marriage event for a native, the following should be analyzed. :
House - Lagna , 7 House
House lords - Lagna lord, 7th lord
Pada lords - Pada lord of Lagna lord, Pada lord of 7th lord
Present age of the native.
Dasa Periods of pada lords influencing Lagna, Lagna lord, and 7th house, 7th lord
Event will occur when the pada lords during their dasas will influence the houses, house
lords and karaka by moving over them or in trines to them.
In the chart given below we will discuss marriage event
For Example: Chart A: Sep-10-1939, 2.20 P.M. Madras
Chart Showing Movement of Pada lords over the Houses, House Lords or Karaka
during their Dasa Periods

Date of Birth: Sep -10 -1939 Date of Marriage : July -05-1967

Marriageable Age : 27Y 07M 25D
Therefore at the given marriageable age the pada lords are moving through the houses and
the house lords as per the Table 3 & 4 and chart given above.
Predicting the marriage as per information given above:
For the marriage event to occur the pad lords of Lagna lord (LL), and 7th lord (7L)
should influence these parameters (L, LL,7H ,7L ,Karaka) during their dasa periods.
Lagna : Mars as pada lord of 2P (Kutumbh), 8P (Marriage contract ) is moving over lagna,
and is in Kendra to seventh house directly influencing the native for the marriage to occur at
27Y 07M 25D
Lagna Lord: is influenced by the mercury, pada lord of 3P and 11th pada and the seventh lord
crossing over lagna lord and also over lagna pada and 12th pada at marriageable age of 27Y
07M 25D
Seventh House: At 27Y 07M 25D, Jupiter the pada lord of lagna lord is moving through
seventh house in Kendra to lagna, lagna lord, thereby making the marriage to occur.
Seventh Lord: Venus the pada lord of the 7th pada is directly causing the event by moving
over the seventh lord and natal Venus which is also the karaka for marriage is also directly
influenced by Venus, karaka for marriage moving over it.
8
760
Conclusion:
Therefore it can be concluded that pada lord are very vital in Bhrigu Pada system
of timing the event. The pada lords during its dasa period will make the event to occur by
directly influencing through its movement over the house or the house lords.
