Marriage Through
Navamsha
By
Ali Muhammad Khan, Pakistan
Bismillah Hi Rehmanuraheem
There were some excellent books on
astrology which were written in Urdu in
the 19th and at the start of the 20th century
like Kashfu‐Najoom in 1880, Al‐Najoom in
1907, Aftab‐Un‐Najoom in 1908. These
were written combining Persian & Urdu
Language, they contained some of the
finest secrets of astrology that were known
to Muslim astrologers of their times.
These lines are taken from an old book
written in 1907 in Urdu language by the
name of Al‐Najoom that means ‘The
astrology’ 1907.
In those olden days, there were very few
books that were written on astrology in
Urdu Language. This book Al‐Najoom is
considered as a masterpiece written by
Molvi Hasenuiddin. Like its
contemporaries, it is written in Persian
plus Urdu language & at the same time,
Arabic words have been used too. This
author has tried a lot of the techniques and
formulas mentioned in this classic and
found it working remarkably. So in order
to give a taste of its worth we share below
some of the formulas for the benefit of
lovers of astrology.
Timing Mothers Death:
Take suns degree minus the moons degree
from it, add the remainder ‘Sign’ to the
Janma Rasi co‐ordinates (Moon Sign). The resultant sign can be called the ‘Mothers Fatal
Point’.
When Saturn transit this sign (Mothers Fatal Point) or 7th from it there will be death of
mother.

Example 1: A native was born on 11th Sept 1955 in Karachi at 11.10am

Her mother died in 1993.

Suns Degree: 24Le30

Moons Degree: 19Ge47

Deduct Sun‐Moon=24Le30 – 19Ge47 = 2 signs 4 ° 43 ' (A)

Mothers Fatal Point = Moon Sign + (A) = 19Ge47 + 2signs 4 °

43' = 24 Leo

And her mother died when Saturn was transiting Aquarius

which is the 7th from Leo i.e. 7th from Mothers Fatal Point as
described in our text Al‐Najoom by revered author Molvi
Hasenuiddin.
If one observes the point 24Leo is nothing but the degree of the Sun, so
why do the exercise in the first place, this is not clear enough and more probing is required.
How do we use this formula when the degrees of Sun is less than the degrees of Moon, e.g
say Sun is 20Ar and Moon is 10Leo. The answer is by adding 360 degrees to the degree of the
Sun

Marriage From Navamsa

When the Jupiter passes through the seventh house of Navamsha in that year the marriage
will be performed.
