If the bhava met with the cruel D60 lord then the bhava in question
will be destroyed or suffer a defect is beyond doubt oh! sage
Maitraya.
Is it bhava lord of D1 met with cruel D60 or cruel D60 lord fall in D1
bhava or it works both way. In my opinion it works both ways.
We may take bhava and its lord and karaka for overall effect is the
established rule in vedic astrology applied here also.

[the lord of the kroora shastiamsa when occupying a bhava shall destroy
that bhava, This is as stated by the ancients].
That looks absurd. But how can ever imagine that the sages are talking
nonsense?
The lord of that amsa shall do harm to that bhava at some point of time
(or permanently) defined by dasa / bhukti / chidra / transit.
This is also in tune with other similar theories involving navamsa lords.
I don't understand what exactly is the confusion here. Isn't it evident /
logical that those planet in the kroora shashtiamsa are damaging?
to whom?

[generally, the banefic planets who have lost their strength, occupy
malefic varga and are aspected by malefic planets in malefic vargas
becomes malefic]
So you can understand how the shubha varga and papa varga transform
the guna of a planet.
Kroora & Saumya Shashti amsas in each signs
In male signs the following are termed as Kroora while other are
Saumya.
1,2,8,9,10,11,12,13,16,28,31,32,33,34,35,39,40,42,43,44,48,49,52,59
The lords of the amsa is reckoned just like dwadasamsa (from that sign
itself).
Namaste,
with due respect to our sages what is told is followed sir only thing is how one interprets it and
utilise it is enhancement and betterment touch.
D60 is a chart where each sign is divided into 60 shashtiamshas. There is a name given to each of
the 60 Shashtiamshas and indicated whether it is a benefic/malefic shashtiamsha. One should
determine in which shashtiamsha a planet falls and note whether it is a benefic or malefic
shashtiamsha. A planet gives good effects if it is in benefic shashtiamsha, and adverse results if
malefic shashtiamsha.
However, a word of caution. I feel that we are not fully equipped to accurately study D60 yet. We
are still grappling with different Ayanamshas. Any small variation could put the planets in a different
shashtiamsha. Also, there is not much literature available on how to really analize D60. Hence, one
can concentrate on other areas rather than breaking one's head on these hazy areas.
Although my software includes Drik (physical astronomy) as well, I left using Drik for astrology since March 1997
because SSS (Suryasiddhaanta) works far better in explaining events. SSS calculations differ from Drik, and higher
divisionals show far greater differences.
LK = Lagna Kundali
SK = Surya Kundali
CK = Chandra Kundali
---------------------------------------
D-1 :
SK has malefic Saturn in 6H but svagrihi Jup in 10H, CK has yoga-giver Saturn in lagna conjunct with 10L Moon,
while LK has 1L + 2L Sat with 7L Moon in 10H, with parivartana yoga between Moon and Venus, thereby giving the
benefic yoga-giver Venus a great power over its 10H. Venus is of mixed nature in SK and CK but benefic in LK.
Overall result is positive in spite of mixed traits.
Varshaphala is excellent, with exalted Saturn in 10H of D1's LK, in 5H of SK as 9L + 8L, and in 2H of CK as 4L + 5L
(rajayoga).
---------------------------------------
D-10
MD of Venus and AD of Rahu. Venus is debilitated (neecha) in 9H conjunct with malefic Mars (4L + 11L) while Rahu
is 8L in 11H. Venus and Mars are both controlled by very high bhaavesha-drishti of lord Mercury from 2H. Venus is 5L
+ 10L, but debilitated which tarnishes the rajayoga. D10's SK has Venus and Mars reversed their roles : Venus
malefic and Mars benefic, but Mercury afflicted in 8H. CK of D10 has Mercury again afflicted in 12H and malefic
Venus with slightly positive Mars. On the whole, D10 is problematic, and calls for propitiation of Venus.
D60 has 9L + 10L neecha saturn in 12H : VRY plus Rajayoga, with Saturn's friend Jup in 10H with 67% aspect of
Saturn. If TOB is correct, D60 is fine for career, but current MD of Sun is malefic : Sun sits in 8H in LK, but as
lagnesha in 5H in CK and as 9H in lagnesha in SK, but in Yama shashtyamsha. Since you have asked form, I am
writing about D60, but as a rule I avoid D60 unless I have plenty of time to go into BTR with the help of lots of data.
For career, D1 + D10 suffices.
D10 of Varsha Pravesha Chart (VPC) is also excellent. But Venus is afflicted in D1 as D10 of VPC.

Namaste All :
PNN (P N Neelakanta Ji) wites that Kroora and Saumya Shashtyamshas are arranged according
to male and female signs. It is wrong. All versions of BPHS do so not on the basis of male or
female signs, but on the basis of odd and even signs.
> "1,2,8,9,10,11,12,13,16,28,31,32,33,34,35,39,40,42,43,44,48,49,52,59"
This list is quite wrong. Following Kroora Shashtyamshas are omitted in his list :
7 = Bhrashta
15= Kaala
30= Gulika
36= Kantaka
41=Kula-naasha
51=Kaalagni/Kaala-paavaka
55=Kroora
Hence, after these corrections in PNN's wrong list, we get 27 Kroora Shashtyamshas , but there
should be 30 Kroora and 30 Saumya Shashtyamshas to maintain symmetry (because mankind is
half paapa and half punya yoni/specie).
Scanning the entire list of 60 Shashtyamshas, I think following three Shashtyamshas should be
included among Kroora to preserve symmetry :
5 =Yaksha
6 =Kinnara
60=Indurekhaa / Chandra-rekhaa
Marks on Moon are blemishes. Kinnara is not a positive trait. Yaksha is not associated to singing
(Gandharva does that) as wrongly translated by R Santhanam in his translation of BPHS. Epics
and Puranas associate Yakshas as dangerous creatures, but not as lowly as Rakshasas.
Those who never use D60 in actual practice write hypothetical things about it. D60 needs a great
deal of BTR which I have been able to carry out successfully only for a few charts, esp because I
aim at getting correct DAC (Dashaa Arambha Chakras) for all divisionals, which is a troublesome
job and needs mnay days of efforts for each native. Hence, PNN ji should not be blamed if he has
no practical experience of handling D60. But he should refrain from posting misinformation in a
public forum.
{ I had posted this message nearly three hours ago, but it has disappeared even from my yahoo
mailbaox 'SENT' page. Surprisingly, all messages from PNN have vanished from my yahoo
inbox : I have checked for past ten days !! Messages by others do not vanish. I do not charge
anyone for hacking my email as PKT did, but something mysterious is happening to my mailbox
which I fail to understand. }

Clasicals mainly BPHS has considered several important issues for delineation and the role of
bhava lord through varga charts.
Divisional charts guide astrologer in various aspects of life to assess capabilities of planets to
produce good or bad results based on their lordship of the houses.
D60 being a very minute division,it is not helpful to base predictions for several reasons.Though
classicals have thrown light on the usage of shodasavarga charts,they serve very limited purpose
for the astrologer to understand how effectively a planet can deliver results of a house during
specific period of dasa of the native.

Malefic Shastiamsa - How to really interpret, if someone can give example with
experience, attaching relevant shloka
BPHS
CHAPTER 8
Sholkas 1-8,
From the Lagna or the Ascendant is to be considered physique, from Hora wealth, from
Decanate happiness through coborn ( brothers) from Chaturthamsha fortunes, from
Sapthamamsha sons and grandsons etc, from Navamamsha wife, from Dasamamsha
effects of great importance ( one's influence on Government authorities, one's profession
status etc.), from Dwadashamsha parents, from Shodashamsha should be known
benefits and adversities through conveyances, from Vimshamsha worship is to be known,
from Chaturvimshamsha learn, from Bhamsha strength and weakness, from
Trimshamasha evils effects, from Khadvedamsha and Shashtiamsha from be considered
all indications.
There is no doubt in the destruction of that house whose lord is a malefics
Shashtiamsha , so say Garg and others. Similarly, the growth and prosperity has also
been spoken by Garg and others of that house The Lord of which is situated in a benefic
Shodashamsha. It is in this way that I told you of the consideration of Shodasha Varga.
PNR Rao
Mention of D60 with malefic & D16 with benefic made no sense to me. I always felt there was a
corruption here.
Secondly, D60 MUST be a very important chart, but it needs a fresh approach - no examples we find in
current literature are useful/reliable. It's too sensitive to ayanamsa and also the standard translation of its
definition is certainly incorrect.
Hemant Bhatt
regards sirji Divisional charts are very important for prognosticating horoscopes. They unlock that hidden
door beneath the chart. Though astrologer examined the entire gamut of variables for analyzing
particular house. Each house stands for different significations. Marshi Parasara first said the attributes
of signs & Planets etc., then explains Divisional-Charts and then gives the evaluation of various houses
through divisional consideration! For example: in D-12, 4th house denotes mother. In D-16, 4th house
denotes vehicles. In D-4, it denotes residence. In D-9, it denotes domestic harmony (with spouse). In
natal chart, it denotes heart, home land, behaviour etc. In D-24, it denotes formal educational
environment and so on and so forth.

I personally use D60 to reveal the ultimate potential and quality of the planet's significations by lordship,
fixed karkatwa (signification) and movable/Jaimini significations. I have not yet used the D60 as an
independent chart (due to unreliability of accuracy of time). Here I must hasten to add that while I do
glance through D60 codal names, I do not allow that to define my analysis due to the high degree of
accuracy required. In charts of people I know intimately I do use D60 codal names. Also I synthesize
overall dasha effects basis a synthesis and signification of different vargas and this has served me well.
My education of vargas is thanks to Sir Shankar Nath Kapoor. .
I will take a case to illustrate how I apply D60 - example Female/31/03/1959; 18:30 hrs (birth at home);

1. Moon (11L) - kantaka/thorn - enmity with elder sibling throughout life; enmity with every friend native
has had in life. Mother died of cancer and was always sorrowful for native's lifestyle. As Amtya karak -
could not hold a steady job throughout life.
2. Sun (12L)- kalinash/ end of kaliyug - I cannot recall any specific association at this time except Sun is
Bhratri karak- native's sibling is a highly moralistic person and cannot tolerate unethical acts. Father
(Sun) had fled form Pakistan during partition (1947) and had gone through ending of one yug (epoch)
and started a new life in India from scratch (riches to rags).
3. Mars (3L &8L) - Deva - as 8L in 10H (aspecting 4H) had much unearned (inherited and gifted)
property (Mars). Has started MPhil (8L/Devas are learned) but left mid-way. as 3L, native has strong
perseverance and goal orientation (Devas did not give up the nectar from the ocean and even convinced
Goddess Saraswati to elicit the curse for sending Lord Rama to Vanvaas and Brihaspati to ensure that
He stays in Vanvaas when Lakshman had come to beg forgiveness for his mother and aks that He return
to be throned as the King of Ayodhya on their father's passing on). Native has been able to use her force
and influence with those in power (as did the Devas) to obtain her goals.
As the karak for borther, i have already described her brother's (elder sibling's) nature and he is
charitable (Deva) and sevred with Govt.
As her Dara Karak, her husband was also charitable and served as a senior, high ranking govt official
(Devas have seats of authority)
4. Mercury (R) - (LL & 10L) - Yama/Messenger or God of Death - native is known widely as "yama'
incarnate due to her rogue and cruel nature. She has been the cause of misfortune and misery to many
(kith and kin, servants, friends, family) As Yama the punsiher, she has impliacted many people in false
cases. She was punished (Yama) and turned out of all the three jobs she held in her life, with public
humiliation. As the significator of entertainment, her sources of enjoyment ahve come back to haunt her
(Yama) as her age is progressing. As the karak fo intellect, she is very intelligent, creative (Yama 'knows'
what there is to know) however is now mentally deranged.
5. Ju(R) - (4L and 7L) - Kaala - Time personified. I have explained the nature of effect on Mother.
Spouse died of liver cirrhosis in about 3-4 years of marriage. All partnerships (7H) have ended in a
turbulent manner. Relations with Son-(Jup /only child) are spoiled.
6. Ven (2l and 8L) - Poornachnadra - Venus is Atma karak - native is extremely attractive, magnetic
personality. Beautiful voice that she knows how to use to negotiate, manipulate, gain advantage.and has
beautiful face (2L). This is only one aspect of her speech (Mercury-Yama is the other aspect).
Accumulated wealth (2H) and ornaments (Ven) aesthetic lifestyle (Ven) are aplenty.
7. Sat (5L & 6L, natural Karm karak) - Khsitishwar/Ruler of the Earth - desires and goals were to acquire
infinitely (unabated greed). As Matru karak (lord of lands) - has prime properties in India (different
states). Native's mother was known to have an heart as big as the earth (as heard from kith and kin of
native).
8. Rahu (Lagna) & Ketu (7H) - Heramba - Lord Ganapati depicted with 5 heads and 10 arms - native
(Asc) is very talented, intelligent, and, as Rahu in Heramba, used deception (rahu) to project a larger
than life persona (5 heads, 10 arms). Native has a huge collection (countless) of various forms of
Ganesha) in all her posh and aesthetic properties. (Ket + Mer = multiplicity) of Ganeshas (Herambas).

Shastiamsa (D60) is a difficult field, where only a few astrologers like to play. In recent decades, various
utility of D60 has been brought into print. For instance, reading D60 as stand-alone chart, connecting D1
with D60 etc (Rashi-Tulya-Amsa & Amsa-Tulya-Rashi).
However, in my experience, benefic and malefic classification of Shastiamsha as narrated by BPHS and
Sarwartha Chintamani works well. This classification is not uniform (like + then - then + etc.). Sometime,
there successively appears a cluster of six or seven benefic Shatiamsas, and sometime continuous five
or six malefic Shastiamsas appears in the list. I couldn't figure out the reason behind this random
distribution of sixty division of a sign.
Besides above, Sarwartha Chintamani is the only classic Jyotish text that maintains dozens of yogas
involving planets in benefic and malefic Shastiamsa. We have no other clue from ancient astrological
literature (at least in translated work, not sure about Nadi works dedicated to Shastiamsa).
In practice, I've noted people having majority of planets in malign Shastiamsa happen cruel, ignoble,
harsh and corrupt. While natives having more planets in benign happen rather gentle, thoughtful,
learned and kind-hearted. When majority of planets depict a certain (benefic or malefic D60) trend then
effect surely manifest. This is just my observation.
It is said D60 foretells one's Karma. Prof. N.E. Muthuswamy gives a list of D60 associated with different
kinds of career (Karma). I don't know what is the source (expanded version of JatakaTattvam or some
other commentary). Muthuswamy's list fits well in some cases (but I've also found it is not too much
dependable). Similarly, K.K. Pathak also explains how one's karma (career) can be determine with the
help of Shastiamsa.
Lastly, I've seen some of your research works on D60, which are somehow similar to Rashi-Tulya-Amsa
& Amsa-Tulya-Rashi, and another ways is read D60 as stand-alone chart (if I'm recalling rightly). This is
good a effort, and research endeavours should continue. Perhaps, what we call in showbiz, "the show
must go on".
