Hence the Great Sage, on the banks of the Holy river Cauvery, one of the Great places of South India in the present State of TamilNadu, delieneated to his students the Great Kashyapa Hora, a great presentation to the world of Astrology. The Nadi System was well delineated by such Sages choosing the script of DEVA NAGARI which was in vogue during those times. The various, innumerable stanzas are in the form of both Tamil and Sanskrit languages. So, it is a mixture of Sanskrit version. In this system, the entire Shastra is delineated in - the form of conversation between the Master and the students and the quintessence of this system, mainly deals with the conceprt of time pertaining to Hora - i.e., to say at what exact time the questionnaire comes for consulting an Astrologer, and depending on that time, the predictional parts are deduced. This valuable systems enables an Astrologer to know or to write in advance, what are the questions the questionnaire desires to.ask and what are the answers (results) for such questions. The same can be well predicted through this great system. In this book, such versions are delineated for the benefits of the readers through many charts. It is quite possible, that during a Hora, two or three persons may come for consulting an Astrologer, but how to analyse them, and how to predict accurate answers in such cases are also dealt with in the following pages. Ipso-facto (needless to say) it is by the grace, the blessings of the Almighty, I am just trying to place here before the readers of4 . this book an humble appeal that the saine shall be read atleast 3-4 times in order to understand and make the best use of it, so that my efforts would become fiuitful. Any kind of suggestions about this book by thesxeaders, is welcome. In this book, some of the slokas of the great Sri VARAHAMIHIRA in original is included and this is well related authentically to this HORA SHASTRA. What is meant by HORA ? It is established by the great learned of the past that there are 24 horas commencing from the time of Sun rise of a day to the next 24 hours closing with Sun rise of the next day. From Sun to Saturn planet 7 Horas, and seven days are considered. So, Hora means, the time at which the questionnaire comes for questioning / consulting on a particular week day, at a particular time, pertaining to such appropriate Hora and what are the planetic combinations at that particular time forms the Hora, i.e., to say it must be noted that at what Hora the person has come for consultation, is taken for consideration. 1 SLOKA “ARKA-SHUKRA BUDASCHANDRO MANDOJEEVA DHAARA- SUTAHA VAARESHAAT PANCHA MAA DHOOR DWAM KRAMAT SHASTAM PUNAH- PUNAH -HA DIVASASYA CHATUR - VIMSHA KAALA HORAA HA PRAKEER THI THAA HA: HOORA NAAMCHA PRAMAA NAAM SYAT SAR DHA DWI GHATIKAA SMU TAA HA: 5 >» Every day from the time of Sun rise-to Sunset itis 12 Horas. Again from Sun set till next day's Sun rise it is 12. horas.So, morking 12 and night 12, a total of 24 Horas. 7 HORA AND THEIR LORDS For Example : On a Sunday the first Hora will be of Sun.So, when the Sun rise is at 6a.m., the first Hora is of Sun from 6a.m. to 7a.m.The next Hora from 7a.m to 8a.m is Venus Hora. Tables given in this book explains the subsequent Horas. On a particular week day, the governing planet's Hora is the first Hora. For Example : 1, Sunday - Ravi (Sun) Hora. 2. Monday - Moon Hora 3. Tuesday - Mars Hora 4. Wednesday - Mercury Hora 5. Thursday - Jupiter Hora 6. Friday -Venus Hora 7. Saturday - Saturn Hora The accompanying Hora table explains the appropriate Horas according to timings based on the governing planets.6 CAUSITIVE KARAKATWA/EF FECTS OF HORA Causitive effects of Héra planets : By applying the principles of Transit to the birth chart of natives, results for the native! s periodic situation could be obtained. In Hora, the planetary positions on the day, and the time of consultation, by the native, is taken for delienation. HORA The planetary position at the time of consultation of the natives are considered and assesment can be made regarding the question of the native. For Example : In a native's birth chart if Sun and Jupiter are together in a particular sign, predictions can be given regarding natives father to be a notable person and also having spiritual thoughts ete, But according to Hora, if these two planets are together in a sign on the day and at the time of native's consultation and according to Hora, if it is a Jupiter's Hora, then we are considering regarding the native, the same combination can be assesed as political support and such achievements, and also there will be great cooperation from big personalities, notable persons.Therefore, we have to considcr the difference between the causitive effects of birth chart and the time of Hora effects. The planetary effects of planets are very important for consideration, including Kala (Time), Desha (such places accordingly), and the future. 7 PLANETS ~ € Causitive effects of planets.of Horas : Causitive effects of all the nine planets are detailed below. SUN: : . Work pertaining to governmental/royal courts, father's aspect governmental aspects - light - Gold.

Causitive effects of planets in Hora . Guru Kashyapa Maharshi while discussing with his disciples regarding the causitive effects of planets in Hora, says, that there is a difference between Hora and Natal charts regarding the planetary effects. DISCUSSION BETWEEN MASTER & DISCIPLE Desciple: Master, how could there be a difference between the Hora and the natal planetary combinations when the planets have their own specific nature ? How to distinguish varied nature of the planets and its effects ? Master: . Yes - youg question on the surface looks correct, but you have to observe that a woman is called by his son as a mother, and she becomes wife for her husband, and sister to , her brother/sister. Here the woman is one and the relaionship of woman undergoes different changes depending on persons involved / circumstances. For instance, a man can enact as Rama ina drama and he may be either a good man in personal life or may be a thief, but for the reason ha has acted as Rama he will not become Rama. : Now let us discuss the planets in the above form, where Mercury and Mars combination in Natal charts gives the result of ‘impediments in educational lines’ (i.e. Vidya Bhanga).Also indicating the native will have knowledge in technical line. When this combination appears in Hora, there will be quarelling between/among brothers/in business affairs. Sometimes between partners also or with blood relatives. Anyhow, these two planets combinations is considered as - quarelling aspects., while considering the predictions from the Hora point of view. Further, Sun is the causitive planet for father and Moon for mother. In Hora Sun is eminent person having Raja karya where Moon represents mother. If Moon is under the control of Dragon-Head there will be indications of mental aberrations. If Sun is under the control of Dragon-head, it indicates problems/hardships to native's father or to the elder son of the native. .. So, as per Hora, we are taking combination of two planets and their causitive affects. In the following paragraphs, let us discuss some of the causative effects of each planet with other planets. SUN : Causative effects of SUN (The Hora Lord) with other planets -10 EFFECT WITH COMBINATION OF 2 PLANTS :, SUN + MOON: It indicates the native's father will have much travelling or one of the persons supporting him will be an eminent/notable person, having travelling aspects. : The combination of these two planets may be in Ist, 5th and 9th or 7th to one another. SUN + MARS : This combination indicates that two powerful/notable person are awaiting for helping hand from the native and out of them one maybe a blood relative to the Hora Lord. For instance, if the Hora Lord is Saturn i.e. at the time of consultation and if Sun and Mars are with Saturn, then it indicates, the Hora Lord will have to encounter/overcome some inimical situations. If Sun and Mars are in Sth and 9th to Saturn and if Sun is in Sth and Mars in 9th to Saturn, then the native will have to encounter/overcome some major disturbances/ obstructional aspects either from governmental sides or political sides/or troubles through police or from an angry person. if these two planets are in 11th to Saturn, the native (Saturn) enjoys supporting factors and it can be noted that even persons who were supposed to be enemical to the native will become friends and work as supporting persons.

Hence, considering the limitation of this book, few combitations are given here as hints. Comparisons : Sun is the governing planet of father in Natal Chart and in Hora also, Sun indicates governmental aspects, father and dragon-tail indicates Matha-Maha (Grand-mother) in Natal. But in Hora Dragon-T: ail indicates litigations and impediments/breaks etc. Saturn is governing planet for work and also he is the son of Sun. Venus is the planet of wife in Natal and Hora.

SATURN HORA : Saturn,(Moon) + Dragon Tail + Jupiter. Saturn (work), Moon (accusations), Dragon-Tail (litigation) and J upiter (Judge). Hence, it is an indication that the question is about the native questioning regarding his career when he has committed some mischief (Moon indicating mischief) and | Dragon-Tail indicating litigation. Hence the native is charged, following the mischief, and facing in accusations a court of law. Also, the native, under the prevailing circumstances is under suspension from service for the reasons28 mentioned above. : In the subsequent pages, we are discussing the causative effects to native, by judging’ the Hora chart.

If there are 2 to 3 planets in a particular sign, consider the degree of each planet or the division of stars and their padas. The degree, minutes and second position of each planet at the time of consideration are to be taken. 2. At the time of a native's consultation, the Hora planet must be taken for consideration - i.e. Guru Hora, Budha Hora, Satum32 Hora etc., accordingly, and it must be noted at what exact position and the degree at which the, planet is situated or in other words, considering a particular sign, the note must be made to what extent a planet has passed in particular sign considering its degree. So, the position of planets in degree must be taken as important factor at the time of consultation by a native. : 3. Commencing from the Sun rise of a day till the time of Sun set, itis {2 hours and again from the day's Sun set till the next Sun rise there are another 12 hours. Thus the totalling 24 hours. So, there are 24 horas i.e., | hora for every | hour. During the tenure of these 24 hours, the various planetic degree must be kept as a ready reckoner for 24 Hora charts for each day. 4. In this way after preparing 24 Hora charts, it is essential to record at what exact Hora time a native has arrived for consultation and in that manner the exact Hora must be noted down. And after deciding the Hora, the relevant planets position must be noted for predictional parts. 2nd, 7th (and also 1 1th) signs must be considered with respect to the degree of the planets and the causative effects of these planets must be considered for predictionai parts. If there are planets in 2nd, 7th and 1 ith and whether they are friendly to the Hora Lord or inimical to the respective Hora Lord must be taken note of before prediction. 5. RETROGRESSION OF PLANETS : If any planets are in retrogression they will be aspecting the rear signs from their position. 33 If the Lord,of Hora is in retro motion, and if they are any friendly planets'in the rear sign, then the Hora planet (the native) enjoys beneficial reuslts. If there are inimical planets for the Hora Lord on the rear sign, then inauspicious unwarrentable results are expected to the native. If the rear sign planet is aspected by friendly planets from its 7th aspect, then it is beneficial. _ If the above planet is aspected by inimical planet from its 7th, then inauspicious / unwarrentable results are obtainable. In order to enlighten the above factors, in the following paragraphs we give examples through various charts. EXAMPLE CHARTS CHART - 1 Title - Bad to Worse - worse to worse In this chart (1) Jupiter is retro in Leo with Dragon - Head and he ( the native) expects some help, co-operation from the rear sign, where there is Saturn. But Saturn is with Moon and Saturn is aspected by major enemy Mars: situated in 7th from Saturn. Jupiter is not willing to stay with the Demon planet Dragon- Head, because, when Jupiter is with Dragon-Head he looses his strength, status and power. Hence Jupiter tries to leave Dragon - Head : and hence becomes retro., while expecting some help / support . benefits and status. But the rear house34 Cancer is occupied by Saturn, where Saturn is already hopeless and helpless, because he is with the enemy of Moon and aspected by major enemy Mars. Mars and Moon are enemies to Saturn. Hence Saturn's position is meserable. So, the native who seeks guidance and help while consulting an Astrologer in Jupiter Hora (as in this case) who is in great distress had to approach his close friend for help, but his friend himself is already in a miserable position and finally arrives at a conclusion, that his position itself is far better than his friend's from who he thought of seeking help. For the same chart, suppose if the questioner arrives in Saturn Hora, then saturn is native ( Horadhipathi is the native) who is in great distress and suffering due to suppression, and humiliation imposed by his relatives and some of the acquaintainces, because saturn is defeated by Moon and Mars. So, it is to be judjed that the native has appeared for consultation about his great problems and humiliating situations, and trying to find some solutions for his problems. So, this bécomes the ‘question’ part. ANSWER: The Retro Jupiter is the close friend of Saturn, who is aspecting on the rear sign where there is the friend Saturn. Hence, it can be deduced that the native will get favourable supporting factors resulting in beneficial aspects within a short time, will be the answer. So, from the above it can be deduced and observed that, although the chart is the same (as in above case) still there is difference in Horas and hence the results varies according to Hora Lords. CHART 2: Title : "A Friend in need is a Friend indeed” In this chart, Jupiter is in Leo with Dragon Head and Mars (who are inimical to each other). Here, Jupiter becomes Retro, because he can't tolerate the enemity and the quarelling between Dragon Head and Mars, hence Jupiter comes Retro., and hence tries to approach a friend who can help. His friend is Saturn who is in a good position, a wealthy, well - to - do one, invites his friend (Jupiter). Saturn and Venus are having 7th aspects to each other. where Venus indicating wealth. Hence Saturn is having good wealth and can support Jupiter. therefore Jupiter gets help, beneficial factors through his friend Saturn, by becoming retro. So, if Jupiter is the Hora Lord (the native) then the native who is in the critical position, gets support and help through his friend or in other words, the native because of his critical position is thinking of leaving his place, but a wealthy friend supports and helps him.36 CHART 3: Title : Help from Guru (Noble persons) Here, the native has appeared in Saturn Hora, who is in the 10th degree of Leo and who is Retro and Dragon-Tail is in Sth degree, and second to Leo there are enemies of Satum (Moon & Mars). Therefore Saturn becomes Retro because of his precarious condition and on the rear sign there is the exalted friend jupiter. So, Saturn by becoming Retro who (after passing 5 degrees) has to encounter with inimical planet dragon-Tail and hence the result is that Saturn comes across difficulties because of inimical planet Dragon-tail who controls, and binds saturn. Anyhow, after such sufferings ( after some months) when Jupiter enters Leo according to Transit, a friend comes to release Saturn and thus Saturn (the native) gets released from such suffering and binding . CHART 4 : Hope for the best and prepare for the worst - 37 A Trap for Sacrifice) Here, the native has appeared in Venus Hora, Venus is female. Mars is the husband who is in.the 7th from Venus who is under the inimical control of Dragon-Head. Retro Venus is expecting some support and help from his close friend Mercury to save her husband from diffuclties (and in order to help her husband). But Venus while trying to get help from the rear sign, there is Moon with Mercury. Here, the native (she) unfortunately, will be constrained to loosen her chastity belt as a matter of sacrifice in order to help her husband, and this is because of the tricks played by Moon who exploits the helpless condition of the Lady(where the wife wants to help her husband, but she becoming hopelessly helpless and she had to sacrifice her chastity). PART -B: A Double edged knife is better than a many edged wife. For the above chart 4, should it be Mars Hora, where 7th to Mars there is Venus (Venus is the wife of the38 native). Venus retro is trying to enter a brothel (who has no norms of principles about chastity) and he native (husband) who cannot tolerate his wife’s immoral activities seriously thinks of a suicidal act on his own life, because Dragon-Head is Kaala Purusha (anti-clockwise) and Mars is entering the mouth of Kaala Purusha, and hence the husband suffers humiliation and mental torture because of his wife's immoral behaviour and sinful activities. So, from the above two charts, it can be observed that in Chart 5 Venus Hora wife is trying to protect her husband while she has to get seduced, and in same chart Mars Hora husband has to sacrifice his life, because of his many edged wife. It is stated by the wise that "a double edged knife is - better than a many edged wife": RESULTS OF RETRO-DIRECT MOTION (RUJU) CHART 5: Every Saint has a Past - Here it is Jupiter Hora. Jupiter is the symbol of intellect and who is retro-Direct and Jupiter is Retro-Direct and before that he was Retro. So, Jupiter, before coming to 39 - retro-direct motion ( the native ) had bad association with immoral persons, drunkards and persons having many vices. But now as he is in retro-direct motion develops an inclination towards the path of righteousness and wisdom. But second to Jupiter there is Moon. Dragon-Tail is 5th from Moon. Moon and Dragon-Tail combination indicates Holy water and Holy places and hence the native, in the past, who had associations with wicked people, now is developing interest towards the path of righteousness and wisdom. According to planets in second to Jupoiter indicates the native becomes a Saint. It is to be noted that any Hora Lord, if retro and rear sign is occupied by inimical planets, then it can be deduced that the native who has having association with people of vices, in subsequent periods changes for good. If any Hora Lord is having bad planets in second, it is an indication that the native will have accompaniment with wicked people, in future. Anyhow, after some months from the time of consultation, the Hora Lord becomes retro and if the rear sign is occupied by Holy planets, that indicates , first the native will be a wicked person, but later changes for better and higher positions. INTERCHANGES IN HORA MRS. SAT DH Sun Moon Ven, Jup CHART 6: Worse to Good -40 Here the native has appeared in the Mars Hora for consultation. Mars is debilitated in Cancer and who is in between two major inimical planets - viz - Saturn and Dragon- Head in the same sign, which indicates that the native is in desperate, deprived condition, almost feeling abondoned in life. Anyhow, it can be concluded that the native within a duration of 6-7 months improves to better position from the prevailing miserable condition. DISCIPLE : "Oh , Master, kindly explain how to decide that the native's posotion improves within a period of 6-7 months - kindly explain ?". MASTER : Of course, Mars may be in worst stage, but he is in the house of Moon & Moon is in the house of Mars. From Cancer to Scorpio for the transit of Mars, it takes a duration of 5-6-7 months. When transit Mars comes to his own sign (Scorpio) where there are his close friends and favourable planets viz-Sun, Jupiter and Venus situated. Sun is the royal friend where Jupiter is the supporter / guide and Venus indicating wealth. Hence, whatever may be the worst periods of the past, within 5 to 7 months time improves very much, and also the native in future can enjoy popularity (becomes a notable person) besides enjoying great status in the society. with commanding respectability. Hence it can be concluded that the prosperity and improvements are 2 sure sign for the native. Al CHART 7: Carrying Coal to New Castle - Tn the prevoius chart, it was bad to good but here in this, it is good to worse and let us discuss how it is. The native appears in the Saturn Hora and the Hora Lord is with Jupiter and in the house of Venus (wealth). ( Good to worse } Saturn is aspected by close friend mercury from 7th ; so the native enjoys good support from two persons (Jupiter and Mercury ) are friends to Saturn. Therefore the native enjoys land benefits, respectability and fortune. But to greediness for making more wealth, he goes to some other place, where there will be unfavourable conditions and thus loose his wealth, besides being subjected to inimical aspects, distress and sufferings. This is because, there is an interchange between Satum and Venus (Saturn in the house of Venus and Venus in the house of Saturn). Before the interchange of Saturn the native was in quite a good and respectable position and because of greediness (as mentioned above), leaving his place, goes to some other place, when42 Saturn comes to Capricorn and because of interchange with Venus, where Saturn will be under the control of Dragon- Tail, Mars and Moon and hence will be constrained to loose his wealth. Hence it can well be observed that the interchange may sometimes be beneficial and sometimes can be most unfavourable too. Hence the phenomena of interchange in Hora must be carefully taken into consideration for obtaining predictions. COMBUSTION . Any planet, if it is within 1 degree of other planet and there is a combustion with another planet in the same sign, the following are the results of combustion :~ Example : Sun is in 10 degree at Pisces, when Venus also comes to ten degrees in the same sign and this is Known as Combustion (ASTA). Tn this combustion, although Venus is exalted in Pisces, but still Venus loses his strength. Even if there is combustion between friendly planets in the same sign, even then one cannot independently do without the other. Anyhow, the combustion among friendly planets is better than the combustion of inimical planets, Venus & Saturn, Venus and Dragon-Head are friends to each other, and they may be in one and the same degrees then the affects will be normally good. If Moon and Venus are in the same degrees then the situations will be that the daughter-in-law 43 - will be afraid of mother-in-law. Here Venus is considered as daughter-in-law and Moon, the mother-in-law. STAMBHANA : (Stationery) Stationary means when a planet stays for more than considerable time in a sign (with an exception for Sun, Moon. Dragon-Head and Dragon-Tail), then it is called ‘Stambhana. For Example : Mars is supposed to stay in a sign for a limited period. In case if Mars becomes Stationary in a sign for more than the limit, then in such cases, if the native appears for consultation under such Hora (Mars Hora), then it can be concluded that the native has become stationary in a place more than expected. " For instance, if a native comes for consultation about a person who was supposed to be away for a period of 11/2 months, but if the party does not return in that time, the reason is because mars being stationary has made the native's party to be stationary for a period of 8 months (i.e. to say, ifa native comes for consultation Stating that the party who has left the house and who was Supposed to return within 11/2 months did not return, then the aspect of stationary comes into picture) and hence the party instead of returning in 11/2 months will be returning after 8 months. RULES NO. 1-16 (PRINCIPLES OF HORAS) RULE 1: : When the party comes for consultation in saturn Hora, if second sign to Satum is occupied by Mars, who is enemy to44 Saturn and Mars is stationary (6-8 months) - then at that time the native will have to overcome some of the inimical aspects during that duration of 6-8 months (i.e. from the time of consultation ), because Mars will move after 6-8 months to the next sign and hence for the entire stationary duration of Mars, there will be inimical aspects to the native. RULE2: There are possibilities that some astrologers may not take into ocnsideration Dragon-Head and Dragon-Tail because they are considered only as Chaya-Grahas. But in Hora they are taken as very important consideration for prediction. Some astrologers may not take into consideration some of the Stree (female) planets, but even they are taken for consideration here because moon is mind. Mercury is land (Bhoodevi, the wife of Lord MahaVishnu) and Venus for wealth. So, it can be well undersdtoood that every one is under the control of mind, earth and wealth and this is more so an inescapable embodying concept of the Divine Creation. RULE3: After making a note regarding the Hora Lord in which the party has arrived for consulattion, 2nd, 5th and 7th signs to Hora Lord should be considered and decided whether there are friendly planets, or inimical palnets in it. RULE 4: It is to be decided at the time of consultation whether the Hora Lord is under combustion or rising (Udaya or Astha) and this is quite important not only for the Hora Lord but also such combinations should be considered regarding other planets also. 45 RULES: Tf the Hora Lord is associated with more than one inimical planet, then it is to be decided that the strength of the Hora Lord is weak. RULE 6: If the Hora Lord is exalted and is with inimical planets then it is to be predicted that the native would not be able to enjoy any success in his efforts / endeavours, as far as the time of consultation is considered. If at all some benefits are indicated, then such beneficial aspects to the native can be derived out of extreme hardship and enormous difficulties. RULE7: If the Hora Lord is with friendly planet and if that planet is associated with inimical planet, then it is to be decided that the native suffers accusations. RULE 8:: Should it come to the aspect of Moon, then it is to be decided whether it is waning Moon or waxing Moon (full Moon or New Moon) must also be taken for consideration towards predictional parts. Any how, if the Moon is waning, then it is strong, other wise it is weak. RULES: If 3 parties come for consultation at a time, for the Ist party the Horadhipathi must be taken for consideration and for'the second party the Sth sign from Horadhipathi and for the 3rd party, 9th sign from Horadhipathi40 must be taken into account. If there are no planets for 2nd, third party in Sth and 9th signs, then we have to consider the successive planets. if the Hora Lord is associated with more than one planet in successive degrees, then for 2nd and 3rd party, the planets in successive degrees to Horadhipathi should be taken next and subsequent. RULE 10: Suppose if the time in which the native comes for consultation comes under Jupiter Hora, where Jupiter in Aries and Jupiter is in 5 degrees, Saturn in 10 degrees and Venus in 20 degrees then consider Jupiter for 1st party, Saturn for the 2nd person and Venus for the 3rd person, because they are in successive degrees from the Hora Lord. Hence NAKSHATRA PADAS or more precisely DEGREES are to be taken into account in such cases. RUEL 11: Occassionally, there may be such possibilities that the namés of the respective parties coming for consultation may be in same "Bhava’. For example, the names may be Anantha, padmanabha, Sreenivasa who comes under the concept of the Lord MahaVishnu. Similarly it may be like Antony, Ananthswamy, Abdulla or it may be like Kashinath, Karim Khan, Kenneth More etc. Here the Bhavas are. considered regarding the names of parties. RULE 12: . The nature of Hora Lord and the nature of sign in which Hora Lord is stationed are very important 47 for delienation. Now let us discuss this part in the form of an example. During the regime of King Tippu Sulthan, a Hora specialist visited the royal court. Then the King all of a sudden asked the expert - "Can you tell me what is in my closed palm 2”. Then the expert said that the King in his fist is having something round and luminious object which is valuable. The reason for the same was that , at that time it was the Sun Hora in Aquarius. Sun is luminious and being in Aquarius indicates Kumbha(a pot which is opened at one end and closed at the other end) and Kumbha is round shape. Hence the Expert was able to decide that the King was holding something in the form of a pot which was luminious and valuable (also Sun indicating Gold). Actually the King was holding Gold. RULE 13: If there are planets in 2nd and 11th to the Hora Lord, the nature of those planets must be considered. RULE 14: Suppose, the party appears during Rahu Kala(under the aspect of Dragon-Head) at the same time Hora Lord also will have such effects of Dragon-Head. Therefore, the formation is Hora Lord + Dragon-Head = such effects accordingly. If the Hora Lord is friendly to Dragon-Head, beneficitial results can be predicted and if the Hora Lord is inimical to Dragon-Head, then the results will be bad to the native. In the same manner, for "Gulika Kala" also it depends whether the planets are friendly or inimical to the Hora Lord and such results vary accordingly.
