"Simple Rules of 4

Step Theory"
By
Sunil Gondhalekar, India.
(As submitted in Dec 2007)
In this theory only strong bhava's
represented by planet is taken for
considering prediction.

Rule 1:
(a1) If there are no other planets in the star
of this planet then the house in which the
planet resides will become the strong
significator of that house (Even if there are
other planets in that house).
(a2) If there are no other planets in the star
of this planet it becomes strong signifier of
the houses owned by it, provided there are
no other planets in that house. (Ignore
Uranus, Neptune & Pluto) else it becomes
secondary signifier of that house. KSK
(Krishnamurthy) says "Tenants are
stronger than owner".
(a3) If there are other planets in the stars
of this planet then it becomes only
secondary signifier of both the house it
resides in and of the houses it owns.
(a4) If the planet is in own stars (star lord
is same) then irrespective of other planets
being in its stars, it becomes strong
signifier of the house it resides in, even
though there are other planets in that
house. This planet will become the strong
signifier of the houses owned by it
provided those houses are empty.

He is credited to having developed a

completely new system of prediction
within the KP system. His Guru was the
Legend of Legends, Late Jyotindra
Hasbe hailing from Maharashtra, India.
He started studying Krishnamurthi
Paddathi (KP) with him in 1979 and
then formed his 4 step theory which has
so far been taught to 15000 students in
Maharashtra. Written and published
own books in Marathi language titled
1.Vivah Yoga 2.Nakshtra Sandesh
3.Nakstra Prabha.

This completes our First Step.

Rule 2:
A planet predominantly gives the results
indicated by its star lord.
This is the most important rule of KP. So
the house occupied by this star
354

lord is strongly signified, even though there are other planets in that
house. He however becomes strong significator of house owned if the houses are empty.
This completes our Second Step.

Rule 3:
KSK has invented "sub lord" and given importance whether planet will offer favorable
unfavorable results. That means 'sub' has got capacity to give results. So consider same rules
we apply for the main planet, which is for step 1. So our Rule 3 is: for Step 3 apply same rules
as for step 1.
This completes our Third Step.

Rule 4:
KSK has mentioned in Reader No. 3 page 137, "If a planet is the significator of lagna bhava, it
gives long life, success in attempts, it helps to maintain good health, if the sub lord is not the
significator of 6 or 8 or 12". The word used by KSK is significator that means, to see his star
lord also. This is what I understood from KSK statement. Hence all the rules applicable to
step 2 will in totality apply to the 4th step.

Rule 5:
KSK has given importance to cusp of the house. So planet near to cusp (within orb of 3020')
affect the strong signification of that cusp. Even if planet is having star in it, it will offer the
cusp result strongly.

Rule 6:
While considering conjunction or aspect we will consider this with an orb of 3020'. Aspect
of planet is considered only on cusp with 3020' orb and not on house.

Rule 7:
When Rahu / Ketu is the star lord of a planet / sub, then it gives results of conjunction /
aspect / star lord / sign lord in ascending order.

Rule 8:
The event will materialize only when Dasa, Bhukti and Antara jointly strongly signify all
the 3 houses.

Rule 9:
If planet is totally negating the relative event's houses on step 3 4 then the Dasa will not
fructify the matter. If planet is the cuspal sub lord then the event will never happen. These
are the simple rules, if followed properly no need of RP is required.

- Issue Matters
According to KSK's teaching, the 5th sublord is considered. If it is the significator of the 2nd
or 5th or 11th house, then birth of a child is assured. Shri KSK also has recommended that a
Lady's chart should be preferably studied. Along with the houses 2, 5 & 11 the 9th (5th from
5th) is also a supporting house, in many cases. Now to time the event, we study the
following example.
In this chart Mars is the sublord of the 5th cusp. The strong significations of this are:
*
MARS
:
Star Lord of Mars Sun
:4
Sub Lord of Mars Moon
: 51
Star Lord of Moon Merc
:4
Here Mars has become principle significator of 5th in the 3rd step. So it is definite that the
lady will have children.

No Planet in stars of
Moon Venus Rahu Ketu

356

This lady was married on 15th Dec. 2003. At that time, the Dasa of Venus was running and it
was up to 1382016. Let us find out whether the Dasa Lord Venus indicates child birth or not.
The signification of Venus is as under:

VENUS
Star Lord of Ven Sun
Sub Lord of Ven Moon
Star Lord of Ven Merc

: 611
:4
: 51
:4

Here Venus is the strong signifier of 5, and 11. Also he strongly signifies the adverse house 1,
4, 6. But since it is the signifier of 5 and 11, the dasa is favorable for child birth. She is already
married in that Dasa due to signification of 11 and also 5.
Now let us see the Bhukti. During marriage the Bhukti of Rahu from14102003 upto 1410
2006 runs. Let us see the signification of Rahu.
*
RAHU
: 12 (Moon 51)
Star Lord of Rahu Jup
:39
Sub Lord of Rahu Rahu
: 12 (Moon 5 1)
Star Lord of Rahu Jup
:39
Here the Bhukti Lord had become strong significator of the Main 5th house and also of the
supporting house no. 9. So child birth should take place in the Bhukti.
The Dasa Lord strongly signifies 5 and 11, the Bhukti Lord strongly signifies the 5th & 9th
house. So while selecting the Antara we will have to give preferences to some other planet
who has strong significator of 2nd house. The Antaras of the bhukti are as under (ENDING
DATES)
Rahu
Jupiter
Saturn
Mercury
Ketu
Venus
Moon
Mars

2632004
1982004
922005
1472005
1692005
1832006
1182006
14102006

We have to respect Nature, and cannot consider child birth within 9 months of marriage. So
we do not consider the Jupiter antara. We will check the Antara lords after Jupiter.

SATURN
Star Lord of Sat Mar
Sub Lord of Sat Rahu
Star Lord of Rahu Jup

:
: 210
: 12 (Moon 51)
: 39

MERCURY
Star Lord of Merc Sat
Sub Lord of Merc Sat
Star Lord of Sat Mars

:
: 37
:
: 210
357

+ KETU
: 6 (Sat 37)
Star Lord of Ketu Sun : 4
Sub Lord of Ketu Jup :
Star Lord of Jup Mars : 210

Mars by his 4th house aspect, aspects

the 5th house and also Moon. So we
will have to take this into account
also, while finding significators of
the house. Hence Sat, Merc, Ket,
Ven, Rahu, Moon and Mars all
become strong significators of 2nd
and 5th houses. In such a case how
are we to select the correct Antara
Lord?. Here KSK's teaching that
Nodes are stronger than planets,
come to our rescues. On this basis
we select the Ketu Antara from 147
2005 to 1692005. In actuality a
female child was born on 882005,
by caesarian. This goes to prove the
KP principle Nodes are stronger
than planets.

Johannes Schner (January 16, 1477 in

Karlstadt am Main January 16, 1547 in

Nrnberg)
(aka,
Johann Schnner, Jean Schnner, Joan
Schoenerus) was a renowned and respected
German
Humanist
Renaissance
Mathematicus. It is best to refer to him using
the usual 16th century Latin term
mathematicus as the areas of study to which
he devoted his life were very different from
those now considered to be the domain of the
mathematician. He made some of the oldest
globes still in existence. Some of them show
areas before they were discovered, like the
Magellan Strait and the Antarctic. He was an
astronomer,
astrologer,
geographer,
cosmographer, cartographer, mathematician,
globe and scientific instrument maker and
editor and publisher of scientific tests. In his
own time he enjoyed a European wide
reputation as an innovative and influential
globe maker and cosmographer and as one of
the continents leading and most authoritative
astrologers. Today he is remembered as an
influential pioneer in the history of globe
making and as a man who played a
significant role in the events that led up to the
publishing of Copernicus' "De revolutionibus"
in Nrnberg in 1543.
