 Preface - First Edition

There is a vast classical literature and modern commentaries on Vedic Astrology. These fall in
two categories - one written by traditional astrologers couched in a language which a modern English
speaking person finds difficult to understand and other by modern English language writers who have
largely taken one aspect of Vedic Astrology for their theme. But very few books in English language take
a holistic view of Vedic Astrology and are also easily comprehensible.

It was also observed that people having formal qualification of Vedic Astrology find it difficult to
grasp the comprehensiveness of the subject to enable them to make effective predictions. From the vast
literature - classical and modern commentaries on each branch of this esoteric science, it is not easy for
an astrologer to retrieve or use them properly while reading a horoscope. In order to fill this gap ‘Vishnu
Prediction Sheets’ were prepared during the late nineties, after carefully reviewing the literature, classical
and modern commentaries, on each of the branches of Vedic Astrology. These Sheets were prepared after
detailed analysis in value added form keeping in view the needs of the querist to facilitate the astrologer
to make their use while making a reading. These were given freely to the research scholars and practising
astrologers – in India and abroad. Subsequently these Sheets formed the basis of various advanced level
courses for astrologers which the author has been conducting for more than a decade.

The author has been bringing out an annual issue of “Journal of Vedic Astrology”. These journals
were thematic, in the sense that each issue contained articles with case studies on one specific theme of
Vedic astrology. They were also distributed freely to the astrologers with the object of upgrading their
predictive capacity. Year after year and course after course astrologers were demanding publication of a
book based on these articles. In view of their constant requests, the author was encouraged to undertake
an intensive survey of all the available literature. This literature survey together with upgrading the
earlier course material has helped in bringing out the present book as a compendium of predictive
techniques of all branches of Vedic Astrology.

The book has fifty Chapters and twenty one Annexures in two volumes. Volume One contains six
parts - Part I: Principles of Horoscope Judgement, Part II: Medical Astrology, Part III: Love,
Relationship, Marriage and Progeny, Part IV: Transit and Ashtakvarga, Part V: Annual Chart and Part
VI: Jaimini Shastra and thirteen Annexures. Volume Two contains four parts - Part VII: Prashna Shastra,
Part VIII: Chakra Prediction, Part IX: Samhita – Astro-meteorology and Part X: Samhita –Mundane
Astrology and Commodity Price Trend and eight Annexures. All contain number of actual life cases to

explain the applicability of the principles.

I would like to acknowledge the valuable contribution of Jyotishacharya Dr. Lata Singh, IAS
(Retd.), ex-Secretary to GOI and Bimla Vaid. Both of them provided wonderful support in editing and
pointing out the mistakes and suggesting improvement in the structure of the books. The book would not
have seen the light of the day without their efforts and cooperation. I express my heartfelt thanks to them.

I would also like to acknowledge the contribution of the astrologers who attended my advanced
Vedic Astrology courses. The feedback and discussions with them gave a deeper insight and incentive to
further research and include missing links here and there. I am ever grateful to them for their
contributions in discussions in the class. Thank you very much my dear students.

I would also like to acknowledge the contribution of my family – wife Bimla and children
Vandana, Archana, Deepak & Sonali. They had unflinching faith in my decision to quit the IAS for the
sake of studying astrology. There were many highs and lows in family life but not a single time did they
criticize my decision – which itself is the only one of this type till today in the country. This gave me an
opportunity to study and disseminate the knowledge of Vedic Astrology with single minded devotion.
Thank you very much my dear family for your support and help.

My efforts will be redeemed if the astrologer community finds these books useful in improving
their predictive abilities. Difference of opinion in astro-sciences is quite common. Mistake, if any, are
also possible due to over sight. I would welcome all such comments and views to improve and amend.

 Preface - Second Edition

The first edition of "Advanced Techniques of Vedic Astrology - A Vedic Treatise in Modern
Times" was published in January, 2011. This was received by astrologers enthusiastically. In view of the
demand from astrologers need for a second edition of the same was urgently felt.

Therefore, I have undertaken an intensive review of the first edition. Large number of paras have
been enhanced and rephrased to make them more logical and clear. Five new annexures, with new case
studies on Jaimini Shastra, have been added. I hope the astrologer community will found them very
useful.

I have tried to present this second enhanced edition in a most correct version. Still some mistake,
if any, may be found by the learned readers. I would welcome all such corrections and views to improve
and amend.

I am thankful to Shri Amrit Lal Jain of Alpha Publication for publishing this second edition in all
its beautiful format.

XI Other principles of horoscope judgement:
1 Rashi chart analysis with following subsidiary
charts:
! Moon chart
! Bhava chart
! Navamsha chart
! Relevant divisional chart (e.g. D/3 for siblings;
D/7 for progeny; D/10 for profession etc.) for
confirmation of the promise given in Rashi chart.
! Annual chart
! Dispositor of above planets – dispositor’s
strength imparts strength to otherwise weak house
lord and vice versa.
2 Factors for consideration in the above analysis:
Chapter 1: Principles of Horoscope Judgement
! Longitudes of the planets and Bhava cusps.
! Balance of Dasha and Dasha/Antar-Dasha
(AD)/Pratyantar-Dasha (PD) with dates. For
& composite analysis at least two Dasha systems –
vimshottari and yogini be considered.
! Transit position of planets vis-à-vis natal and
other charts.
! Ashtakvarga - BAV of planets and the SAV of
natal and transiting planets.
! Co-relation of the above with the annual chart
and annual chart Dasha system.
! Divisional, annual charts and transit analysis
are subsidiary to Rashi chart. They help in
materialising only when there is a promise in natal
chart.
3 General strength and fortune in a horoscope:
! General strength is indicated by strong, well
placed and dignified Lagna, LL, 9H and 9L, Moon
Lagna and Moon sign lord.
! Fortune is indicated by LL, Navamsha LL,
Moon Nakshatra lord and their dispositors.
XII Bhavata Bhavam:
1 It is a house as far away from a house as the latter
is away from the Lagna and it acts like a latter house.
Thus 3H, 2nd houses from 2H also represent 2H’s
significations. Similarly 7H, a 10th house from 10H also
represents profession. Lord of a house placed in them or
a well-placed Bhavata Bhava improves the house
concerned.
2 Also consider Aries sign as Lagna and study the
PAC etc. of various planets of the natal chart. Good
placements improve the natal Lagna analysis.
3 Overall assessment of different Bhava:
! 3H from Lagna & Mars
! 4H from Lagna & Moon
! 5H from Lagna, Moon & Jupiter
! 7H from Lagna, Moon & Venus
! 8H from Lagna & Saturn
! 9H from Lagna & Moon
! 9H & 10H from Lagna & Sun
! 3H (for father’s longevity)
XIII Yogas: There are thousands of yogas. Yogas
manifest fully when Lagna and Lagna Lord (LL) are strong
and yoga takes place in an auspicious house. The following
simple and important yogas are considered while examining
a horoscope.
1 Panch Maha Purusha Yogas: Jupiter (Hansa
Yoga), Venus (Malavya Yoga), Saturn (Shasha Yoga),
Mercury (Bhadra Yoga) and Mars (Ruchak Yoga) in
Kendra and in OH or exaltation. Auspicious
fructification of the planet’s karkattwas is indicated.
6
Part 1: Judgement of a Horoscope
2 Raj Yogas (RY): These are obtained by
relationship of Kendra (belongs to Vishnu, the preserver)
lords with the tikona (belongs to His consort Lakshmi –
the goddess of prosperity) lords (11 yogas). It brings
name, fame, status, wealth & family.
3 Relationships are given by: (i) conjunction, (ii)
mutual aspect, (iii) mutual exchange and (iv) by one
planet in another’s house and aspected by that planet.
4 Vipareet Raj Yoga: Mutual exchange or
combination of Trik (6/8/12L) i.e. 6L in 8/12H (Harsa
yoga); 8L in 6/12H (Sarala yoga) and 12L in 6/8H
(Vimala yoga).
5 Dhana (Wealth) Yoga (10 yogas): Relationship of
2L or 11L with LL, 5L or 9L (the lord of any of the
trines – the abodes of Lakshmi).
6 Indu Lagna (IL): Rays given by Su, Mo, Ma, Me,
Ju, Ve & Sa are 30, 16, 6, 8, 10, 12 & 1 respectively.
Rays of 9L from Lagna and Moon are added and then
divided by 12. Remainder counted from Moon gives
Indu Lagna (IL). An unblemished benefic or an exalted
malefic in Indu Lagna makes one multi-millionaire.
7 Arishta (ill-health) Yoga: These are by relationship
of any two of LL, 6L, 8L and 12L (6 yogas). Association
with the maraka planets enhances their virulence.
8 Daridra (Poverty) Yogas: Weak LL along with
daridra yoga causes ill health. Some of the Daridra yoga
given by Parashara are:
! LL in exchange with 6L or 12L with one or
both under maraka influence.
! LL in 8H in maraka influence with Ketu in
Lagna or with Moon.
! Afflicted LL in Trik house and 2L debilitated.
! 5L in 6H & 9L in 12H.
! Mars & Saturn or Sun aspected by Saturn in
2H. (Mercury’s aspect in it makes native very
wealthy).
9 Privartana yoga: When two planets exchange
houses, they gain strength and behave as if they are in
their own houses. There are three categories:
! Maha Yogas: Mutual exchange of any two of
the 2L or 11L and Kendra/Tikona lords give rise to
28 yogas promising wealth, status and physical
enjoyment.
! Dainya (misery) yogas: Exchange of 6L or 8L
or 12L with the rest of any house lord (except
mutual exchange of 6/8/12L causing Vipareet RY
giving financial prosperity and status) leads to
wicked nature, persistent trouble from opponents
and ill health (30 yogas).
! Khala (combination for fickle & wickedness)
yoga: When 3L exchange with lords of houses other
than Trik houses Khala yoga are obtained (8 yogas).
10 Neech Bhanga Rajyoga:
7
Chapter 1: Principles of Horoscope Judgement
! Dispositor of debilitated planet aspect/
conjunct /OH or exalted.
! Exalted sign lord of debilitated planet
(Taddauchchanath) in Kendra/Tikona to Lagna or
Moon or posited with debilitated planet.
! Retrograde and debilitated behaves like an
exalted one.
! Exalted planet in debilitated planet’s
Navamsha.
! Dispositor of debilitated planet & exalted sign
lord of debilitated planet are in mutual Kendra.
! Exalted sign lord of dispositor of debilitated
planet in Kendra/ Tikona to Lagna or Moon.
11 Lagnadhi/Chandradhi yoga: Natural benefic in
6H, 7H & 8H from Lagna/Moon.
12 Mutual exchange or conjunction of LL and Moon
sign lord.
13 Yoga from Moon (Sun, Rahu & Ketu are
excluded):
! Sunapha: planet in 2H from Moon
! Anapha: planet in 12H from Moon
! Durudhara: on both side of Moon
! Kemdruma: No planet on both side of Moon
indicates poverty, miseries. If there is a planet with
Moon or in Kendra to Moon Kemdruma Yoga gets
cancelled.
! Good or bad result of other three yogas is as per
beneficence or maleficence of planet in 2H or 12H
from Moon.
14 Yoga from Sun (Moon, Rahu & Ketu are
excluded):
! Vesi (shubha/papa): benefic/malefic in 2nd from
Sun.
! Vashi (shubha/papa): benefic/malefic in 12th
from Sun.
! Ubhayachari (shubha/papa): benefic/malefic
on both sides of Sun i.e., in 2nd and 12th from Sun.
! Good or bad result as per beneficence or
maleficence of planets in 2nd and 12th from Sun.
15 Amala yoga: Benefic Mercury, Jupiter or Venus in
10H from Lagna or Moon.
16 Gaj Kesari yoga: Jupiter and Moon Kendra to each
other.
17 Subhakartari yoga: A planet or a Bhava between
two benefic planets. Malefics give Papakartari Yoga.
18 Parijata yoga: Dispositor of dispositor of LL in a
good house.
19 Sakata yoga: Moon and Jupiter - 6/8 or 2/12 to
each other (cancelled if Moon is in Kendra to Lagna)

is capable of giving good results of the signification
of D-Chart ) by its placement in various D-Charts:
♦ Vargottama: Good. A planet is
Vargottama in:
" 1st Navamsha of 1, 4, 7, 10
(Movable signs).
very good.
♦ If exalt. in Rashi & debilitated in D-
Chart: ordinary result.
♦ If debilitated /comb./ weak in Rashi it fails
to bestow good results.
! To identify results of a particular sector of life
by studying the corresponding D-Chart along with
concerned Bhava in Rashi Chart e.g. for general
fortune study:
♦ 9H/9L of D1.
♦ D9 with D1.
! Div. Chart is always subordinate to D1;
promise has to be there in D1 before studying the D-
Charts.
! A strong position of LL of D-Chart &
significators (i.e., Bhava Lord & Bhava Karaka of
D1) in concerned D-Chart with favorable D/AD &
helpful transit bestow fructification of Bhava of
Rashi Chart provided it is not weak in Rashi.
VI Divisional Analysis steps:
1 Study BH w.r.t. (with respect to):
! Lagna, LL.
! Moon-Lagna, Moon-Lagna Lord.
! Sun-Lagna, Sun-Lagna Lord.
2 Functionally malefic/benefic w.r.t. their placement,

VII Planetary effects on Ascendant: The above analysis is
subjected to the Planetary Effect Methods. These are:
1 Astrological Check method
2 Panch Tatwa Sidhanta Method
3 Navamsha and Navamsha-Dwadasamsha Method
VIII Astrological check: Some key astrological
combinations are applied to confirm the correctness of the
Ascendant by using the Astrological Check Method.
1 Lagna be confirmed by the physical characteristics
as explained above.
2 Some astrological checks:
! Mars, Saturn, Rahu or Ketu in 3H curtails
longevity of younger co-born.
! LL afflicted by malefic or hemmed between
them indicates that the native may not be keeping
good health (LL in 6H unafflicted indicates good
health).
! LL weak aspected by Saturn indicates many
hindrances in life.
IX Panch Tatwa Sidhanta Method:
1 A male birth takes place in the Tatwas of Prithvi
(Earth), Agni (Fire) and Aakash (Sky), while a female is
born in Jala (Water) and Vayu (Air) Tatwas. A
conjunction of opposite Tatwas corresponds to the birth
of an eunuch. The corrected birth time should fit in
under these criteria.
2 In case of a day or night birth divide the total period
of day or night as the case may be, by 120. For the birth
on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday,
Friday and Saturday, the first Tatwa is of Agni, Jala,
Agni, Prithvi, Aakash, Jala and Vayu respectively. The
spans of divisions assigned to Tatwas are Prithvi-1 part,
Jala-2 parts, Agni-3 parts, Vayu-4 parts and Aakash-5
parts and then the Tatwas are repeated in the reverse
order. Thus one cycle consists of 30 divisions and 4
cycles every day and every night complete 120
divisions. It is explained by an example given below.
X Pancha Tatwa Sidhanta - Time Correction Example:
1 Day birth: 1 Division= Din-Maan (DM)/120
2 Night birth: 1 Division= {RM = (24-DM)}/120

! Gulika may be replaced with Mandi-90% same.
XVIII Hora Lagna:
1 Jaimini Method:
! Suryodayaisht (TOB after SR in hr.) x 30, add:
♦ Sun’s longitude if Lagna is odd or
♦ Lagna longitude if Lagna is even
giving Hora Lagna c.f. Parasara where Sun’s
longitude is added whether Lagna is odd or
even .
! Alternately: Convert Suryodayaisht in hours
and minutes. Take this hours as signs and minutes
divided by 2 as degrees and add:
• Sun’s longitude if Lagna is odd or
• Lagna longitude if Lagna is even
giving longitude of Hora Lagna.
XIX Gandanta:
1 Nakshatra Gandanta:
! Last Pada i.e. 3°20’ (Alternately: Ending 2
Ghati) of Mercury’s Nakshatra:
♦ Ashlesha
♦ Jyestha
♦ Revati
! First Pada i.e. 3°20’ of Ketu’s nakshatra
(Alternately: First 2 Ghati of Ketu’s Nakshatra):
♦ Ashwini
♦ Magha
♦ Moola
! Nakshatra span in degrees & minutes for 2
Ghati = (13°20’/60 Gh.) x 2 gives 26’40’’ as the
Gandanta degree at the beginning or ending of the
above Nakshatras.
2 Rashi Gandanta:
! Ending ½ Ghati of 4, 8,12 sign.
! Beginning ½ Ghati of 1, 5, 9 sign.
! Lagna span is 30° in average of 2 hrs. i.e., in 5
Ghati. Therefore, ½ Ghati = (30°/5 Gh.) x ½ Gh.
=3°. Therefore last 3° in 4/8/12 signs and first 3° in
1/5/9 signs would give Rashi Gandanta.
3 Tithi Gandanta:
! Ending 1 Ghati of Poorna Tithi: 5, 10, 15, 30.
! Beginning 1 Ghati of Nanda Tithi: 1, 6, 11
Tithimaan (T.M.) = 60 Ghati and 1Ghati=(T.M./60)

XXI Khara Drekhana (22nd Drekhana):
1 Put degree of Lagna in 8H and calculate Drekhana
(i.e. D/3 sign) of the same
! If Lagna is in 1st Drekhana Div. then 8L is
Lord of 22nd Drekhana
! If Lagna is in 2nd Drekhana Div. then 12L is
Lord of 22nd Drekhana (5th from 8H)
! If Lagna is in 3rd Drekhana Div. then 4L is
Lord of 22nd Drekhana (9th from 8H).
XXII 64th Navamsha :
1 Place Moon’s degree in 8th sign from Moon in D1.
Navamsha Lord of this sign with above degree is the
Lord of 64th Navamsha.
2 It is the 4th Lord from Moon in D/9 i.e., 4L from
Moon’s Navamsha would be 64th Navamsha.
XXIII 85th Dwadashamsha:
1 Lagna D12 division no. is counted from 8H giving
85th Dwadashamsha and its Lord e.g. :
! Lagna 1st division (30°/12 = 0 to 2°30’) would
give 8L as Lord of 85th Dwadashamsha.
! Lagna 2nd division (2°30’ to 5°) would give 9L
as Lord of 85th Dwadashamsha and similarly for
other divisions.
XXIV Longevity Classification & Span:

♦ A child born in above Ghati has short age.

64
Part 2: Medical Astrology
! Rules for span is by each group’s placement in
signs as follows:
♦ M-M or F-D indicates Long age.
♦ F-F or D-M indicates Short age.
♦ D-D or M-F indicates Medium age.
! The majority result of the three prevails. If all
the three are different then Lagna – Hora Lagna
prevails. If Moon is in Lagna or in 7H then Lagna
sign - Moon sign prevails.
! As per Parasara the grouping is to be seen from
pair Moon-Saturn signs in place of Jaimini pair of
Lagna sign - Moon sign. Hora Lagna is also
calculated differently in Parashari.
! Saturn can be analyzed as a Karaka for age.
2 Alternative parameters:
! Apply above longevity rules to:
♦ D3 Lagna & Moon’s Drekkana.
♦ Navamsha of LL & Navamsha of
dispositor of Moon.
♦ D12 Lagna & Dwadashamsha of 8L.
! This alternative is just confirmatory.
3 Other Rules – for confirmation:
! There are other factors causing increase or
decrease of span so determined:
♦ Placement of benefic:
• All benefic in Kendra: Long age.
• All benefic in Panaphara: Medium
age.
• All benefic in Apoklima: Short
age.
♦ Placement of malefic:
• 8L and all malefic in Kendra
indicates Short age
• 8L and all malefic in Panaphara
indicates Medium age
• 8L and all malefic in Apoklima
indicates Long age
♦ LL & Sun’s relations:
• LL friend of Sun indicates Long
age
• LL neutral of Sun indicates
Medium age
• LL enemy of Sun indicates Short
age
♦ Other combinations:
65
Chapter 5: Principles of Medical Astrology
• Moon sign Lord & 8L from
Moon.
• LL & 8L.
♦ LL, Navamsha of LL, Moon, Moon-sign
Lord, Moon Navamsha Lord all are stronger
than 8L indicates long age otherwise short age.
! Mrityu Bhaga (MB):
♦ A planet in MB indicates loss of
Karkattawa of planet & loss Bhava whose Lord
is in MB
♦ If Moon & Mercury are together &
Mercury is in MB then Dasha of Moon and of
dispositor of Mercury is also bad.
♦ MB is one of the factors and no
interpretation is given on MB only.
4 Kakshya Vridhi and Kakshya Hrasa
(Increase/decrease of Life Span):
! Kakshya Vridhi Life span so determined will
be increased if :
♦ Benefic in Kendra and malefic in
3/6/11H.
♦ Shubhkartari (if a planet in 2H is
retrograde & in12H is direct, it is strong
shubhkartari) of longevity factors: Lagna, LL,
8H/8L, Moon, Saturn.
♦ Strong (OH/FH/Exalted, aspected by its
Lord, well placed, Benefic associated) Lagna,
LL, 8H/8L, Moon, Saturn.
♦ Unafflicted Jupiter in Lagna or 7H.
♦ Saturn Karaka in 8H is good for
longevity but life is not pleasant and is a
struggle.
♦ Night birth in bright half (Shukla
Paksha) & day birth in dark half (Krishna
Paksha) with Moon in 6/8H will not be
harmful and give no reduction.
♦ Lagna and 7H hemmed between benefic.
♦ Benefic in Lagna/7H or in Tikona.
♦ AK and 7th from AK hemmed in benefic.
♦ Benefic in AK/7th from AK or in Tikona
from AK.
♦ AK being benefic exalted or with benefic.
♦ Jupiter hemmed between benefic.
! Kakshya Hrasa:
♦ Life span so determined will be decreased
if combinations contrary to above exist.
♦ When 8L from Lagna or 8L from 7H (i.e.
2L) becomes or joins AK.
Part 2: Medical Astrology
! Rashi Vridhi:
♦ Increase in longevity by a Rashi dasha.
♦ If Lagna, 7H or their trines; AK, 7th from
AK or their trines are occupied by full Moon or
Venus.
! Rashi Hrasa:
♦ When malefic occupy the above the
longevity is decreased by one Rashi dasha.
5 Role of Maraka:
! Maraka can cause death in their D/AD if
longevity span is coming to an end. They are:
♦ Chhidra Planets.
♦ A planet in the last degree of a sign.
♦ A planet in Gandanta.
♦ Death can take place according to life
span:
• Short: 3rd dasha or Vipat Tara’s
i.e., 3rd Tara’s.
• Medium: 5th dasha or Pratyari
Tara’s i.e., 5th Tara’s.
• Long: 7th dasha or Vadha Tara’s
i.e., 7th Tara’s.
♦ Planets whose Navamsha sign is the same
as that of 2/7H in D1.
♦ Planets whose Nak. is related to 2/7H.
! From the above list of planet identify the one
with maximum repetition. Then identify ill placed
and weak i.e.,
♦ Weak
♦ Ill placed/ aspected.
♦ Papakartari
♦ Gandanta
♦ Relation with DL 2/12, 6/8, 1/7.
♦ AD be related in similar way. Four types
of relations:
• Exchange of each other’s sign or
Navamsha.
• Mutual aspect.
• Conjunction.
• A in sign of B aspected by B.
! Promise of D1 should be confirmed in D9. D1
is immediate and D9 is ultimate. A planet weak in
D1 but strong in D9 indicates that beginning may be
bad but the end would be good.
XXXII Longevity & Transit :
66
Chapter 5: Principles of Medical Astrology
1 Transit factors which are good for longevity:
! LL, Moon & Moon-sign Lord all strong
aspected by benefic during transit.
! Strong Jupiter in Lagna
! LL & Jupiter in Kendra.
! Benefic in Kendra & Tikona.
! Birth in S.P. & Moon in Kendra/Tikona or in
11H from Lagna in 4, 5, 9, 12 Navamsha signs.
2 Adverse transit factors indicates death or
disease:
! Saturn’s transit over:
♦ Sum of longitude of (Su+Mo+Ju+Sa)
• Short span : 1st transit of Sa.
• Medium span: 2nd transit of Sa.
• Long span : 3rd transit of Sa.
♦ LL or 8L & their Navamsha or their trines
♦ 8L/22nd Dreshkona/64th Navamsha/85th
Dwadasamsha Lord or their Navamsha
♦ Weakest SAV house.
! Jupiter’s transit over (Ju+Ra) or its trine.
! Sun’s transit over (Lagna + Mandi).
! Moon’s transit over (Moon + Mandi).
! LL malefic afflicted and debilitated/comb./

also):
♦ Moon’s transit over:
• Natal Moon.
• Natal Lagna.
• Combination causing Arista.
• Planets afflicted in transit.
• To be used when a person is sick
and exact timing in future is required.
XXXIII Longevity : Father’s Death:
1 Parameters:
! 9H, 9L, Sun, 9th from Sun
! 2/7thL from 9H & Sun gives Maraka for
father.
! Similarly in D9 and D12 (birth time has to be
accurate for D12).
! Connection of 6L/8L with these parameters.
2 Analysis:
! Analyze basic parameters for father and its
Maraka in D1.

Case Study – Longevity Determination by Mathematical

Methods

Executive Summary: Vedic Astrology provides various mathematical methods for fixing longevity of a native. They have
been explained at great length in this chapter through a case study. It includes Longevity - Mathematical: Pindayu - Age
contributed by planets, Harans (reduction in Gross Age), Shatru Kshetra (For planet in EH) Haran, Astangat ( For combust
planet) Haran, Krooradaya Haran, Age contributed by Lagna; Longevity – Mathematical – Jeevayu; Longevity –
Mathematical – Amshayu and Longevity – by Rashi Dhruvanka.

I General: Classics have given many methods of

determination of age of a native. In Parashari system they
include Dasha/Antardasha methods & mathematical
methods. Jaimini Shastra also provides methods of longevity
determination through Jaimini Dasha systems. In this paper
Parashar’s mathematical methods of longevity determination
of a native are considered for the following case.

D/1 Chart:

of the age contributed by planet at deep exaltation point is

known as Half Age. In between a planet contribution to
Gross Age is given by formula - Half Age + [(Planet Long.
degrees ~ Deep Debilitated)/180} x Half Age. Summation
all planets give total Gross Age by all the planets. Then
Harans (deductions) – Chakrapath, Shatru Kshetra,
Astangat & Krooradaya are applied to the Gross Total age
of all the planets. Then age contributed by Lagna is added to
get age in Savan years. This is converted in solar years to
get Pindayu Age of the native

Strijatak – Interpretation of Female Horoscope

Executive Summary: This chapter enumerates the methods of interpretation and reading of women’s horoscope. The
astrological combinations are frankly revealing with the purpose to stress on the peculiarities of the fair sex. It will also enable
the reader to understand astrologically the peculiar psychological and physiological features that makes women so elusive in
the God’s creation. There are a large number of characteristics that are common to males & females. In this chapter we are
primarily concerned with the peculiarities associated with females. The astrologers should take care in balancing the results
mentioned in the chapter using common sense and intelligence after taking into consideration the environment of the native,
local social and religious conditions and the period when prediction is being made to avoid pitfalls. It is hoped that the
astrologers will fully benefit from the analysis.

Conjugal Harmony, Psychological approach for analysis of Conjugal Harmony, Marriage period - Early Marriage (18-22
Yrs.), Normal Marriage (22-25 yrs.), Delayed marriage (26-33 yrs.), Combinations indicating marriage age, Denial of

(Sanyasa) &, Compatibility-summary. This comprehensive analysis will of great use to the astrologers in the area of marriage
issues with which every person is concerned.

I Marriage Parameters: In order to judge the issues in
marriage following parameters needs to be examined:
1 7H (7th House).
2 Planets in 7H.
3 7L (Lord of 7th House).
4 Dispositor of 7L.
5 Venus Karaka of 7H.
6 Jupiter - Karaka of husband (for females).
7 Nakshatra Lord of above planets.
8 Navamsha and Navamsha Lord of concerned
planets.
9 7P (7th House Pada – a sign as far away from 7L as
7L is from Lagna) and UP or 12P (Up Pada – 12th House
Pada – a sign as far away from 12L as 12L is from
Lagna).
10 Other parameters:
! 2H/2L (a marriage is rooted in family).
! 4H/4L (concerned with home life).
! 5H/5L (related to providence, natural love,
customs, traditions, procreation and progeny).
! 8H/8L (related to sex-life).
! 9H/9L (solemnized when lucky).
11 Analyse from Lagna, Moon and Sun.
12 Effect of planets in 7H:
! Sun: Unhappy conjugal life unless aspected by
a benefic, partner dominating and ambitious.
! Strong Moon: Happy, early marriage, romantic
outlook of the partner, general prosperity and short
pleasure trips. If waning wife unfaithful but with
benefic aspect virtuous and faithful.
! Mars: Delay, ill health, disputes or death of
partner; also indicate affectionate and passionate
partner. Mars in OH, Jupiter’s aspect or in Cancer
sign not harmful.
! Strong Mercury: Intelligent, artistic, fortunate
and rich partner. Unhappy conjugal life with weak
Mercury.
! Jupiter: Noble, lucky, faithful, generous and
virtuous partner; general prosperity and happiness.
! Strong Venus: Loving partner, highly
prosperous, fortunate and happy; a sensuous
approach to life. Afflicted Venus makes a man
licentious and unhappy and conjugal harmony
disturbed.
! Saturn: Unhappy conjugal life.
! Rahu: Separation, ill health, and bad temper of
partner.
! Association of benefics or by planets in OH or
in exaltation modifies the adverse results given
above. Similarly malefic affliction of good planets
reduces the good results.
13 Placement of 7L:
! Conjugal harmony when 7L in Kendra/Tikona
(angles/trines).
! Bad health of partner and unhappy conjugal life
for 7L in 6/8/12H; aspect of benefic mitigate ill
effects.
14 Role of Venus:
! Strong Venus gives attraction to opposite sex
early in life and conjugal bliss.
! Venus in 3/6/10/11H or benefic Venus in 7H

83
Part 3: Love, Relationship, Marriage & Progeny
makes one fortune after marriage.
! Venus in Kendra in OH or exaltation gives
material gains, conjugal bliss, and all sorts of
comforts in life.
! Venus in 2, 5, 6, 7, 9, 12 signs in more
beneficial than in other signs. In Capricorn indicates
excessive attachment and aggressive ambition.
! Venus in 12H good for conjugal bliss, but also
secret love affairs and excessive greed for money. It
should not be in the Navamsha of Saturn.
15 Strength of 7H:
! A house is weak when the three - the house,
house lord and its Karaka have some of the
following 18 point - affliction:
♦ All are weak (3 points).
♦ Subject to papakartari (3 points).
♦ Conjunction or aspect of malefic (3 points).
♦ Conjunction with enemy planet (3 points).
♦ Malefics in 4/8/12th from them (3 points).
♦ Malefics in 5/9th from them (3 points).
♦ 2-3 afflictions out of above make a house
weak. Benefic associations re-deem.
! A house is also weak when its lord is 6/8/12th
from the house or occupied by 6/8/12L.
! A house is strong when occupied or aspected
by its lord, by a strong friendly planet or by natural
benefic like Jupiter, Venus or waxing Moon
(provided benefic does not own 6/12H) or in
subhakartari.
! Overall malefic/benefic aspects of the three are
seen in Rashi and Navamsha chart. Navamsha
chart and Navamsha placement of planets give
more reliable picture of marriage issues and life
partner and study along Rashi chart. The best
position of 7L is exalted, OH or friendly sign in
Rashi and in benefic Navamsha.
! Stronger and a planet friendly to 7L be given
importance when more than one planets are in 7H.
! Specific Yogas bearing on 7H and marriage
issues are also seen.
16 Dasha/AD of concerned planets and transit
analysis is done for timing.
II Analysis of Conjugal Harmony:
1 Results of conjugal harmony are predicted
according to overall malefic or benefic association of
concerned houses and disposition of various planets.
2 Psychological approach for analysis of Conjugal
Harmony: Mental attitude could make or mar the
marital happiness. Important significators in the context
of marital life are:
! Sun: dignity, honour and heritage.
84
Chapter 8: Issues in Love & Marriage
! Moon: mental attitude.
! Mars: sexual urge.
! Venus: love.
! Association of Rahu with any of the above
deterrent to marital bliss. Association of Rahu
with:
♦ Sun: give complex arising from difference
in status.
♦ Moon: give temperamental moods.
♦ Mars: rigid attitude may bruise feelings
between the couples.
♦ Venus: love in defiance of parents or a
case of marriage to one whose affection lies
elsewhere.
♦ All these may not surface if 7H is clean
and fortified by benefics. But if two of them
are afflicted by Rahu then:
" Moon+Venus+Rahu gives morbid
sexual urge and if 7H also afflicted he/she
may become sex-maniac/nymphomaniac.
" Mars+Venus+Rahu results in
shameless sex exploitation.
" Affliction of two will cause fairly
disturbed relations. But if three or all the
four afflicted with Rahu situation beyond
redemption.
" Overall result depends on
benefic/malefic association.
III Marriage period:
1 Early Marriage (18-22 Yrs.)
! Benefic associated 7H, 7L, Venus.
! Benefic (not retrograde and Venus not
combust) in Lagna. or 7H and unafflicted 7L and

! 7L in Kendra/Tikona owned or aspected by
benefic.
! 7H & 7L unafflicted and in constellation of

! Venus (in Kendra except 7H/Tikona) with
more than 5 benefic dots in its Ashtakvarga.
! Conjunction of any two LL, 7L, Venus with
benefic association.
! 7L & Venus in 4H.
! 2L, 7L & LL benefic associated.
! Benefic not retrograde & Venus not
combust.
! Other combinations for early marriage:
♦ Strong Moon in 5/7H.
♦ Karaka+LL or 7L+LL without malefic
affliction in benefic sign or association.
♦ Venus or more than one relevant planet in
watery sign without affliction.
Part 3: Love, Relationship, Marriage & Progeny
2 Normal Marriage (22-25 yrs.):
! Mild affliction of marriage parameters by Sun,
Rahu or Ketu & not by Saturn or Mars.

more than one of:
" 7H/7L
" Venus

♦ Benefics retrograde and Venus combust.
♦ See above from Moon Lagna & in D/9 also
and whether planets are in malefic
constellations.
! Benefic association reduces the degree of
delay.
! Two/three weak parameters associated with
Saturn or Rahu indicates old age marriage.
! Affliction to Vivah Saham (Marriage Saham)
i.e. Venus-Saturn+Asc.

! Mars in 7H of one and Mars in 8H of the
other do not cancel and life of one with Mars in

! Mars in same house does not cancel - Mars
in 8H of both will affect sex-life and longevity of
both.
10 Effects of other planetary positions:
! Mars and Venus:
♦ Mars + Venus in Lagna or 7H
indicates bad character.
♦ Venus in same sign as Mars in others
chart gives mutual love.
♦ Mars of one aspect Venus of other or
vice versa gives mutual love.
♦ Moon in Venus’s signs (2, 7) in one
and in Mars’s signs (1, 8) of the other or
vice versa indicates love and attraction .
♦ Mars + Venus:
" In same or 1/7th gives mutual love.
" In 6/8/12th to each other indicates
mutual hatred.
! Mars and Saturn:
♦ Mars and Saturn conj. or in 1/7th (in

conj. or mutual aspect (though auspicious
otherwise) - gets cancelled by similar in
partner’s.
! Mars and Moon:
♦ Conjunct (though good for wealth) or
1/7th to each other are bad in above houses
and cause disturbances in conjugal life.
! Mars and Jupiter:
♦ As per classics Jupiter conj. or
aspecting Mars cancels Kuja Dosha. But
experience shows that Jupiter+Mars or 1/7
increases Kuja Dosha (Jupiter’s 5/9th aspect
okay), gets cancelled by similar in partner’s.
! Rahu + Mars:
♦ As per classics this also cancels Kuja
Dosha. Actually, Rahu+Mars in 7H/8H gets
cancelled by Rahu+Mars in Lagna/2H in
other’s.
Part 3: Love, Relationship, Marriage & Progeny
11 Special consideration:
! 7H:
♦ Conj./aspect/ Papakartari by two or three
of Saturn, Sun, Rahu, 12L or Disposition of
Rahu (five separatist) gives disturbed
married life or separation.

life.
! Venus:
♦ 6/8/12/2H or Deb./EH/comb. or affected

! Rahu conj. with:
♦ Sun: inferiority complex.
♦ Moon: unstable mental state.
♦ Mars: aggression between the two.
♦ Venus: extra marital relation outside
caste.
♦ Moon+Venus+Rahu: excessive sexual;

♦ Affects the Bhava where Rahu is
posited e.g.,
" Rahu in 7H: Disputes among wife/
husband; extramarital relation, bad

effect is reduced.
14 Venus in the Navamsha of Mercury:
! No marriage or delayed marriage, divorce,
widow, extramarital relation (even if Venus is
exaltated/OH/FH).
VIII Bhava Compatibility:
1 There will be excellent compatibility if:
! Lagna sign of both same gives Similarity
or Harmoniousness.
! Lagna sign of both are trinal (5/9th) - all
Bhava Lords are friends indicate Friendliness.
! Lagna sign of both 1/7th to each other
indicates Complementarity.
2 In both the charts see planetary friendship,
aspects etc. of respective Bhava Lord to find result of
Bhava concerned.

them of native or
♦ LL, Moon sign Lord, 7L's sign in Rashi

♦ Exal. or debilitated sign of LL, 7L,
Moon sign Lord of native.
! Rashi exchange of Lagna and Moon sign of
both charts.
! LL or Moon sign Lord of both charts is
same. Nakshatra division should be different for
cancellation of Nadi Dosha.
! In all above cases mutual compatibility
would also be good.

Marriage Muhurta

Executive Summary: Marriage conducted in an auspicious moment enhances the positive effects of planets in
marital and conjugal life bringing happiness, wealth, joy, good progeny and compatible relationships. Such marriages
reduce the malefic effect of planets causing discord or dispute in married life. Classics have given elaborate methods
of fixing auspicious day and time for individual’s marriage. There are ten factors, which are considered to fix the date.
Out of these if five or more are good the marriage can be said to be held in an auspicious moment. There are other
considerations of Tribal Sudhi, Lagna Sudhi etc. In this paper a summary of all the factors are explained. In the end a
practical approach to fixing of marriage muhurata is given. It is hoped that readers will benefit from this in their day-
to-day applications of these rules.

I Lata etc. Ten Dosha: Ten Doshas are Lata 2 Paata Dosha: Nakshatras at the ending time
(Latta), Paata, Yuti, Vedha, Jamitra, Mritu Panchak of Harshan (Chitra Paata), Vaidhriti (Anuradha
(Baana Panchak), Ekargal, Upgraha, and Dagdha Tithi. Paata), Sadhya (Magha Paata), Vaytipat (Revati
Out of these the four Doshas - Ashlesha Paata, Paata), Gand (Shravan Paata) and Shoola
Krantisaumya, Mritu Baana & malefic conjunct of (Ashlesha Paata) yogas suffer from Paata Dosha.
marriage Nakshatra are to be avoided. Lagna sudhi
(correction) also compulsory. If out of ten Doshas if a
maximum of four are there, Muhurata for marriage
is all right. These are shown in the List of Sudha
Vivah in a Panchang.
1 Lata Dosha Chakra:-

3 Yuti Dosha: A malefic planet (Sun, Mars,

Saturn, Rahu or Ketu) or Venus in conjunction with
Marriage Nakshatra (i.e. Moon) cause Yuti Dosha.
It causes fears, death or poverty. If Moon is exalted
in Taurus or in friendly sign (Leo, Gemini or Virgo)
or in OH in Cancer then Yuti Dosha is cancelled and
it becomes auspicious.
4 Vedha Dosha: Marriage Nakshatra having
Vedha from a planet cause this Dosha. All vedhas of
Vivah Nakshatra Charan are harmful; malefic ones
are more severe. First Charan cause Vedha to 4th

103
Part 3: Love, Relationship, Marriage & Progeny
Charan and 2nd Charan cause Vedha to 3rd Charan.
In case of Vedha by a benefic planet only Nakshatra
charan having Vedha is avoided and other three
charana are considered good. In case of Vedha by a
malefic planet then full Nakshatra having Vedha is
avoided This Vedha is seen as per Ansha Swar
Chakra. A planet in Krittika cause Vedha to a
planet in Shravan Nakshatra. Similarly for others.
This is given below:
5 Jamitra Dosha: When there is a malefic planet
in 7th House from marriage Lagna then Jamitra
Dosha is caused. Also 14th Nakshatra from Marriage
Nakshatra having malefic planet cause Jamitra
Dosha and it should be avoided.
6 Ekargal Dosha: Ekargal Dosha is a Dosha
caused by specific combinations of some of the
Yogas and Vivah Nakshatra. Marriage in such
104
Chapter 10 Marriage Muhurta
Nakshatra is avoided. This combination is given in
table below:
7 Up-Graha Dosha: When Moon’s Nakshatra is
5th, 7th, 8th, 10th, 14th, 15th, 18th, 19th, 21st, 22nd, 23rd,
24th, or 25th from Sun’s Nakshatra the Up-Graha
Dosha is caused. It should be avoided.
8 Baan Dosha: Sun at particular degrees in a sign
give rise to five Baan Doshas. One of them – Mritu
Baan is for marriage and it is to be avoided.
9 Sthula Kranti Dosha: When declinations of
Sun & Moon are in one direction then Vyatipat
Mahapata Dosha and when they are in opposite
directions then Vaidhriti Mahapata Dosha are
caused. In marriage muhurata this is calculated
mathematically. Sthula Kranti Dosha is given in
Table below. In case, say, Sun is in Aries and Moon
in Leo (or vise versa) then Sthula Kranti Dosha is
caused.
10 Dagdha Tithi Dosha: It is caused by Sun’s
sign and tithi combinations as given in the Table
below. It is also considered adverse.

Case Studies - Love, Relationships, Marriage & Progeny

Executive Summary: Astrological rules regarding love, relationships, marriage and progeny have been covered in other
chapters. In this chapter an attempt has been made to apply some of those rules in live case studies. In this chapter seven case
studies have been covered on various such aspects. They are - Early Marriage & Timely Progeny, Early Marriage & Timely
Progeny, Marital Relations – Adultery & Separation in Married Life, two case studies on Marital Relations & Divorce,
Progeny – Death of baby in the Womb and Progeny Denial & Adoption. It is hoped that principles of analysis enunciated in
these case studies can be used in other aspects of love, relationships, marriage and progeny.

Lagna is even. Majority of factors are of odd signs is well

bed pleasures. Scorpio sign rising in D/30 indicating
adulterous behaviour on his part. In D1-Chart 12L
JupiterR in OH (Own House) in 12H also confirms this.

IV Analysis: It is clear that husband has adulterous yoga in

his horoscope. An average compatibility with such tendency
of the husband caused separation. The husband is living with
another woman, working in his work place, since December
06 leaving his wife alone. This will be examined from
Dasha/AD and transit as follows:

Pisces in 11H on Rahu/Ketu axis and afflicted both
Venus and Jupiter. Jupiter in transit was debilitated
in Capricorn in 9H and could not provide benefic

was operative during Jan, 06. Mercury is 8L with
Sun in 4H and further malefic afflicted by the aspect
of Rahu causing separation with wife.

118

! Transit: During Jan 06, Saturn was retrograde

in Cancer and was transiting natal SaturnR in 9H
with low 24 SAV bindus and only 1 BAV bindu in

SaturnR’s aspect from
previous house.
2. Dasha-AD on 30.5.06:
The period of Me-Sa-Su
was operative. MercuryR is
12L with Sun. Saturn is 5L
in 9H with Ketu. Thus all
the planets are afflicted and
indicate some sudden
adverse developments
causing harm to progeny.

of a strong SaturnR. Rahu
also has SaturnR’s aspect.
Thus indicating loss to the
baby.

III Analysis: The analysis above indicates that though there

was promise of pregnancy but some sudden adverse
developments were to happen to cause loss to the progeny.
The Dasha/AD/PD Lords were adverse and were not helpful.
The transits also did not help success in getting a progeny.
All these factors went against and baby died in the womb.

Rules Governing Various Aspects of Progeny Determinations

Executive Summary: In this chapter most of the astrological rules governing progeny available in classics or in modern
commentaries have been outlined. Their collation at one place will be of great use for astrologers who wish to delve deep into
the deeper aspect of progeny – promise, timing, number, gender and happiness or unhappiness from progeny. The
interpretations of concepts of Beej Sputa and Kshetra Sputa have been explained. Adoption yoga with concept of Dutta Sputa
is also explained. The concepts of Santan Tithi, Santan Guru, Santan Shukra, Santan Yoga Sputa and Sputa Panchak have been
explained with rules for interpreting these special features. Rules for the legitimacy of the progeny have also been explained in
detail with astrological combinations. It is hoped that the wide-ranging coverage of all aspect of progeny in an integrated way
will help astrologers in conserving time in consulting many scattered sources.

! Number of signs from Lagna sign (D/1) to 5L
Navamsha sign (i.e., sign in D/9).
! Number of planets in 5H or with 5L from:
♦ Lagna
♦ Jupiter
♦ Sun in D/9.
♦ See their disposition in friendly (+ one
addition) or adverse Navamsha (e.g. Deb. /EH
in D/9) (- one subtraction).
! No. of expired Navamshas in 5H minus those
Navamsha whose lords are inimical or debilitated
(in D1) of :
♦ 5H
♦ 5L
♦ No. of planets aspecting 5H (in D1).
♦ Total of the three indicates no. of children
(see from Moon sign also).
2 Rashmi (Rays) method: Planets give Rashmi
(Rays) in following sequence.
! Planets: Su, Mo, Ma, Me, Ju, Ve, Sa
! Rashmi: 10, 9, 5, 5, 7, 8, 5
! Above Rashmi are at deep exaltation point. At
deep debilitated point zero Rashmi is given by
planets.
! In intervening longitudes Rashmi are given by
following formula:
{(Deep Debilitation Longitude - Planet Longitude)
x No. of Rashmi given by the planet when exalted}
divided by 180.
♦ If a planet is retrograde or exalted x 3
(multiply Rashmi by 3).
♦ In EH (Enemy House)/Debilitated -
reduce by 1/6 i.e., x 5/16 (multiply Rashmi by
5/16).
♦ Planet (other than Venus & Saturn)
combust gives zero Rashmi.
♦ Venus & Saturn when combust Multiply
by x ½ (multiply Rashmi by 1/2).
! Number of children is equal to the larger
Rashmi of the 5L or Jupiter.
3 Ashtakvarga Method (Jupiter’s):
! Number of benefic Bindus in 5th from Jupiter
in Jupiter’s Ashtakvarga (AV), less:
♦ Dots by debilitated/combust/EH/eclipsed
planet.
♦ x 3 (alternative view is to multiply by two)
for planet in exalted.
♦ x 2 for planet in OH.
127
Chapter 12: Progeny Determination
♦ Number of male/female according to
bindus by male/female planets.
! Number of bindus in 5th from Jupiter in
Jupiter’s AV excluding that of :
♦ Jupiter’s enemy.
♦ Enemy of 5L from Jupiter.
♦ Combust/inimical/debilitated planet.
♦ Debilitated sign Lord of 5L from Jupiter
or dispositor of Jupiter.
! Sum of the bindus of Jupiter’s AV (after both
reductions) less bindus in houses (signs) occupied
by malefic gives number of children.
VIII Santan Guru (S.G.) (Progeny Jupiter): This is
used for deciding remedial measures or advising remarriage
etc.
1 S.G. = Sum of longitudes of (Lagna + Yama) x 5
2 If S.G. is blemished by Nava dosha (Nine
afflictions), the native can’t have children without
recourse to remedial measures.
3 Native to remarry to have progeny if:
! Affliction to Tithi Sputa: It is given by
formula: (S.G. Longitude- Sun’s longitude)/12
gives Tithi/Karan.
! See if above is a Chhidra Tithi i.e., 6, 8, 12,
Rikta-4, 9, 14 and 30 in SP/KP. Similarly, Vishti,
Chatuspada, Naga and Kinstughana Karans are
inauspicious.
! Navamsha of S.G. is Taurus or Libra or in sign
occupied by Santana Shukra (given by Venus’s
longitude x 5).
♦ If S.G. is aspected by Santana Shukra.
♦ S.G. is in the Nakshatra of Venus.
IX Santan Yoga Sputa (SYS):
1 SYS = (S.G. longitude + Yama) x 9.
2 Leave out SYS sign & take only degrees divide by
5 and quotient Q = No. of children.
3 When three Vargas of SYS is controlled by Jupiter
(in Shadvarga) native will have 6 children; if the three
Vargas controlled by Mercury & Saturn birth of twins
indicated and if they are weak they will die.
4 Drekkana Lord of SYS is debilitated/EH indicates
loss of children as follows :
! Expired position of Dreshkona lord in the sign
is:
♦ 5° indicates that eldest will die.
♦ 10° indicates that 2nd eldest will die etc.
5 If Navamsha of SYS is in issueless sign (i.e. 2, 5, 6
or 8 signs) native will have no issue.

XX Conclusions: In this chapter most if the astrological
rules governing progeny available in classics or in modern
commentaries have been outlined. Their collation at one
place will be of great use for astrologers who wish to delve
into the deeper aspect of progeny – promise, timing,
number, gender and happiness or unhappiness from
progeny. The interpretation of concepts of Beej Sputa and
Kshetra Sputa have been explained. Adoption yoga with
concept of Dutta Sputa are also explained. The concepts of
Santan Guru, Santan Shukra, Santan Yoga Sputa and Sputa
Panchak have been explained with rules for interpreting
these special features. Rules for the legitimacy of the
progeny have also been explained in detail with astrological
combinations. It is hoped that the wide-ranging coverage of
all aspect of progeny in an integrated way will help
astrologers in conserving time in consulting many scattered
sources, sometimes with contradictory commentaries. These
rules will be explained through case studies in the next
chapter.

Case Studies - Progeny

Executive Summary: In this chapter some of the advanced aspects of progeny covered in the chapter on “Rules Governing
Various Aspects of Progeny Determinations” have been further clarified by way of large number of case studies of
calculations and interpretation of these concepts. They are on - Santan Tithi, Dutta Sputa, Number of children, Santan Guru,
Santan Shukra, Santana Yoga Sputa, Sputa Panchak and Nava Dosha.

Case I –Interpretation of Santan Tithi, Dutta II Navamsha D/9:

Sputa, Progeny, Santan Guru, Santan Shukra,
Santana Yoga Sputa, Sputa Panchak

196.420 x 5/12 = 81.84. Expunging multiples of 30 we
get 21.84. It gives 22nd tithi as running tithi i. e. KP 7,
Krishna Paksha - 2nd half of the Lunar month.

Interpretation of Transit and Ashtakvarga

Executive Summary: In this chapter rules for interpretation of Transit and Ashtakvarga have been delineated in a way that an
astrologer can effectively use them for day-to-day interpretation. These rules have been collected and collated from various
classics in such a way as to make their interpretation easy and meaningful. It’s utility lies in delineating correct Dasha/
Antardasha out of multiple Dashas/Antardashas. It is also useful in proper analysis of the results of Sadhe Sati by delineating
the good from the bad periods by using transit principles along with the Kakshya principles as given in Ashtakvarga system.
Interpretation of Prastarak Varga and Bhinnashtak Varga provide very interesting clue to many aspects of life. Interpretations
of Sarvashtak Varga and Kakshya principles have been explained with ease of understanding. The controversy of Tikona and
Ekadhiptya Shodhan has been explained to clarify the various practices prevailing and the background of the same. Effects of
the transiting planets in signs with different bindus have been covered to explain the use of transit and Ashtakvarga.

2 A planet transiting bad house (3/6/8/12H) in his:
! Exaltation/OH/FH sign gives mild bad results.
! EH/debilitation sign gives maximum miseries.
3 Functionally benefic (with respect to natal Lagna):
! In good house (with respect to transiting Moon)
is good.
! In bad house (with respect to transiting Moon)
is adverse.
4 Functionally malefic (with respect to natal Lagna):
! good house (with respect to transiting Moon)
gives feeble good results.
! bad one (with respect to transiting Moon) gives
maximum evil results.
5 Benefic aspect on transiting planet increases its
good results & vice versa.
6 Natural benefic retrograde: When transiting:
! in good house intensify good results.
! in bad house minimum evil results.
7 Natural malefic retrograde: When transiting:
! in good house neutralize good result.
! in bad house intensify evil.
8 A planet transiting in good house is combust/
hemmed between malefics (Papakartari) good results
are not felt; in bad house it intensifies evil.
9 A planet in transit good house having benefic
planet in 4, 5, 8, 9H gives full good; a planet in transit
in bad house with benefic planet in 4, 5, 8, 9H would
give reduced evil. (vice versa for malefic planet in 4, 5,
8, 9 H from transiting planet).
10 Transit of a Planet over Nakshatras:
! Transit of a planet over a Nakshatra owned by
it also gives increased benefic or reduced malefic
result depending upon whether the transit is
auspicious (benefic) or inauspicious (malefic).

Vadha Nakshatra i. e. the 3rd, 5th or 7th Nakshatra
from birth Nakshatra or their trinal Nakshatras then
it gives adverse results. However, the transit of
Saturn over 2nd (Sampat), 4th (Kshem), 6th (Sadhak),
8th (Mitra) or 9th (Adhi Mitra) Nakshatras or their
trinal Nakshatras then it gives good results. Transit
of Saturn over birth Nakshatra or its trine also does
not give good results.

have 4th Pada of Sravana as its 88th Pada (Sravana is 22nd
Nakshatra from Ashwini and 4th pada is equivalent to 88
charan away from 1st Pada of Ashwini). Generally
speaking transit of a planet over its 88th Pada is
inauspicious give adverse results of the Karkattwas of
the planet and concerned houses. However, overall
disposition, PAC etc. should be considered.
13 Timing of result of a planet’s transit in a sign
depends on its dreshkone division number, if the planet
is:
! Su, Ma: in 1st decanate (i.e., in the 1st third
of sign).
! Ju, Ve: in a 2nd decanate.
! Mo, Sa: in a 3rd decanate.
! Me, Ra: always effective.

house is 6H from transiting Saturn) & also 6H from the
3 houses aspected by Saturn during transit (i.e., 3rd, 6th,
8th & 12th H from Saturn) are afflicted and the

favorable.
! KL (Kashya Lord)of DL contributed bindu to
DL in DL’s BAV gives intrinsic goodness.
2 Sub-Period (AD):
! Antardasha Lord (ADL) gives according to
promise in natal chart.
155

! ADL in Bhava with SAV>28; BAV>4 is
favorable (otherwise some obstacle).
! KL of ADL contributed bindu to DL in DL’s
BAV gives intrinsic goodness. The mutual
auspiciousness is enhanced if DL contributes a
bindu to ADL in ADL’s BAV.

6/8/12H placement.
♦ If both the lords of a planet are associated
with high bindus, the vitality of ADL is
enhanced.
♦ Inauspicious of above if ADL has less
bindus (1-3) in DL’s BAV. Lesser bindus may
reduce RY and other favourable trends.
! ADL has given a bindu in DL’s BAV or DL has
given a bindu in DL’s BAV gives good period (DL

XI Conclusions: Jupiter’s transits in Capricorn have been
analysed keeping in view the nature of its Murthy at the time
of transit for various signs and applying transit rules for
Jupiter. Jupiter ingressed Capricorn two times and in between
it went to Aquarius. In all these three transits it has different
Murthy for people born in different Moon signs and also
Saturn position varies from birth sign to birth sign. Principles
of sadhe-sati have also been considered before making
prediction for each of the birth sign in the three transits.
Similarly ingress of Rahu in Capricorn and ingress of Ketu in
Cancer have been examined for people born in different
signs. However, a detailed and precise prediction is possible
after considering the birth chart of an individual person and
applying these results to that person’s chart specifically. The
above prediction provides a general view of affairs in these
transits.

Case Study – Methodology of Monthly forecast for Persons born

in different Signs

Executive Summary: Month-wise prediction by persons born in different birth signs has always attracted the attention of
every body in the beginning of the year to know their future in the coming year. In this chapter this methodology has been
explained in great details so that astrologers can use the principles of transit to make similar forecast for other periods also. In
order to get true picture of events transit of all the important planets have been considered in the chart drawn for each of the
sign. Their dignities, retrogression, ownerships, aspect etc. coupled with Saturn’s Sadhe-sati are also considered. Detailed
transits of planets and item wise position of planet in transit is explained for Aries and Taurus. Analysis of others other birth
signs can be based on similar study of planets in transit.

I Introduction: In order to make month-wise prediction

for a year a base date is selected. In this case we are
considering English month-wise prediction we take position
of planets at the time of beginning of the year on 1st January,
2009. This is analogous to making prediction for lunar
months when we take beginning of Hindu New Year as the
base for such prediction. The planetary position is placed in
different charts with concerned birth sign as the Lagna. In
this case planetary position at the beginning of year 2009 as
on 1st Jan, 2009 is placed in charts with Lagna of different
signs and interpretation is done after considering the
movement of planets in different signs from month to month
keeping in view the principles of transit, Sadhe-sati etc. The
chart at the time of 00:00 hrs. on 1st Jan, 2009 at New Delhi
is given below:

II Aries Chart: Charts for people born in Aries sign are

given below. In this chart Moon is placed in Lagna
indicating Aries birth sign and is considered stationary and
other planets movements with respect to it are analysed for

3 Patyayini Dasha:
! Krimshamsha is the longitudes of planets in
ascending order.
! Patyamsha is obtained by subtracting the
longitude of the 1st planet from the 2nd in the above
sequence; the 2nd from the 3rd and so on. The first
Krimshamsha is also the first Patyamsha.
! In order to check the correctness of the
calculations the summation of all Patyamshas
should be equal to highest longitude of
Krimshamsha.
! Dasha order is as per Krimshamsha order.
! Dasha period:
♦ (365 x Patyamsha of planet) divided by
highest of the Krimshamshas.
♦ While fixing dates take actual days of
English calendar months.
! Antardasha (AD):
♦ (Duration of a Patyayini Dasha x Duration of
Patyayini Dasha of Antardasha lord – starting
from the Patyayini Dasha lord)/365 gives AD

6 Selection of Year Lord (YL):
! Strongest of the five and aspecting (any of Tajik
aspect) AC Lagna.
! If strongest not aspecting AC Lagna, next
strongest aspecting Lagna is taken as YL.
! If more than one aspecting AC Lagna, strongest
of them is taken as YL.
! When Office Bearers have equal strength and all
of them aspect AC Lagna then one holding largest
number of offices is taken as YL.
! Munthesh (Muntha Lord - ML) as YL:
♦ When no Office Bearer aspecting AC Lagna.
♦ When the strength of the planet aspecting AC
Lagna is less than 5 VB.
♦ When all the Office Bearers have equal
strength, all aspecting AC Lagna and all hold
equal number of offices.
! Strongest Moon not YL:
♦ Moon is mild and unable to govern.
Therefore, even if strongest & aspecting AC
Lagna, Office Bearer next in strength
aspecting AC Lagna is taken as YL.
♦ In case Moon is strongest and no Office
Bearer is aspecting AC Lagna then either:
" Planet in ithsala with Moon is YL and
if there is no Ithsala then the dispositor of
Moon is the YL.

Case Studies – Annual Chart

Executive Summary: In this chapter number of case studies concerning annual chart have been covered. They include
construction of an annual chart, calculation of annual chart planetary strengths, interpretation for Muntha, Year Lord,
determination of annual chart dasha systems and their interpretations, Tajik yoga and their interpretations, Saham and their
interpretations, house wise interpretations, Tripataki Chakra and its interpretation are explained.

I Construction of Annual Chart:
1 In order to understand the construction of an
annual chart we will construct annual chart for the
45th year (completed 44 years) for the case with the
following birth details:
2 We first need to calculate the day of birth. This if
not known is calculated by different methods. They
are explained below.
II Calculation of the Vaar (Day of Birth):
1 Method I:
! 1st Jan. AD (year 0000) was Monday and
365/7 gives remainder - R=1 for one year; in
Leap year (4th year divisible by 4) R=2; in case of
completed centuries Leap years are divisible
by 400 i.e., 400, 800, 1200 etc.
! For 100 years remainder is 100+24 leap days
= 124/7gives R=5 .
! For 400 yrs. remainder is 5+5+5+6 = 21
indicating R=0.
! Example: Nov 12, 1960:

12 November, 1960 Extra day R

1600 0 0
300 3x5=15 1
Completed yrs. 59 59 3
Leap days 14 0
Jan to Oct (Total days) 305 4
12 days of November 12 5
Total 13

! R = 6 indicates Saturday (counted from

Monday – the day on 1st day of AD).

2 Method II: Use of Perpetual Calendar: This is

explained in Annexure-Lunar Calender - Panchang.

III Calculation of Entry Time of 45th year (Varsha

Pravesh – Solar Return): In this day is counted from
Sunday. Day of birth being Saturday counted from Sunday
one gets 7 or its equivalent 0.

Jaimini Sutras – A Holistic Summary

Executive Summary: Jaimini Sutras are in four chapters – each of the chapters has four padas (quarters). In this chapter
chapters wise, quarter wise and sutra wise explanation of Jaimini Sutras are given in an integrated way to grasp the meaning of
the sutras. S. 2.3.27 means Sutra No. 27 in third Pada (quarter) of 2nd chapter of the Jaimini Shastra. The present work is for
astrologers who know the basics of the Jaimini Shastra and as such the explanation has been kept as brief as possible. The
planets are mentioned in their three letter formats. OH means a planet in own house. Jaimini Shastra describes many Dasha
systems. In this chapter an attempt has been made to put all the Jaimini Dashas in one place in a comparative tabulated form
for comprehension of these Dashas. These Dashas are Chara Dasha, Navamsha Dasha, Sthir Dasha, Shoola Dasha, Brahma
Dasha, Kendra (Narayana) Dasha, Karaka (AK) Kendra Dasha, Mandook Dasha, Yogardh Dasha, Drig Dasha, Trikona Dasha
and Nakshatra Dasha. They include First Dasha, Dasha Order and Dasha period for the main Dasha as well as Antar-Dasha
system. Reference of the Sutra supporting the analysis is indicated.

4 Antardasha period is 1/12th of the Dasha period.
VI Arudha (Jaimini) of a sign (1.1.31 to 1.1.33) is the
sign as far from its lord as it is away from its sign.
1 Arudha of Lagna: AL
2 Arudha of 7H is Dara Pada: 7P
3 12H Arudha is Up Pada: 12P or UP
4 Parashar Alternative: According to Parashar if
Arudha of a sign as per above calculation is in:
! 7H i.e., when the lord of a sign is in 4/10H
from it then as per Jaimini its Arudha is 7H from
the sign. In that case Parashar takes 4H from the
sign as its Arudha.
! Lagna i.e., when the lord of a sign is in Lagna
(same sign) or in 7th house from the Lagna/sign
then as per Jaimini its Arudha is Lagna itself. In that
case Parashar takes 10H from the sign as the
Arudha of the sign.
VII Jaimini Lagnas: Isht Ghati (IG) is equal to time
elapsed after Sun rise in hours multiplied by 2.5 and this is
used for calculations of various Jaimini Lagnas:
S. Lagna VII Formula
No.
1 Ghatika (Isht Ghati x 30o)+Sun or Lagna
Lagna as per Lagna is odd or even.
2 Hora Lagna (Isht Ghati x 30/2.5)o + Sun or Lagna

3 Vighati (Isht Ghati in Vighati/5) x 30o + Sun
Lagna or Lagna as per Lagna is odd or even.
4 Bhava (Isht Ghati x 30o/5)o + Sun or Lagna
Lagna as per Lagna is odd or even.
5 Varnada Count for Lagna & HL (from Aries for
@
Lagna odd Lagna or from Pisces for even Lagna
(S. 1.1.34 – as the case may be) and if:
1.1.35) -both odd - add them to get (a)
-one odd & other even – subtract
them to get (b)
Count up to a or b (as the case may be)
from Aries – direct (odd Lagna) or from
Pisces – indirect (for even Lagna) to get
Varnada of a sign/Bhava.
@ All Rashi and Bhavas have their respective Varnada
Rashi. Bhava number from Varnada Rashi taking it as a
Lagna represents a relative as in a normal chart.
Interpretation of good or bad for a relative corresponding
to that Bhava is done by considering benefic or malefic
influence on the Bhava. Other use of Varnada is to find
Maraka Dasha.

from 7H/7L from UP; D/9 Lagna or KL. (S. 1.4.23)
II Progeny: (S. 1.4.24 to 1.4.31)
1 Progeny denial: 7H/7L from UP or D/9 Lagna or
KL (Alternatively: D/7 Lagna – Suryanarayan Rao)
associated with Mercury & Venus (children denying
planets).
2 Progeny: 9H from above places {Alternately I:
5H from above places. (Neelkanth, Kashi Ram &
Suryanarayan Rao): Alternately II: 9H in D/7}
associated with:
! Sun, Mars & Saturn: many children.
! Only Moon (Alternately: in 9H in D/9): one
son.
! Sun, Moon, Jupiter & Saturn are children
giving planets.
! Both (children giving & denying) planets
in above: give one son in advanced age.
! Mars & Saturn in above (Alternately: 9H
in D/7): gives an adopted son.
! If the above 9H in :
♦ odd sign: many children.
♦ even sign: gives few children.
! Association of Rahu with sign or its lord:
indicate last child.
3 Progeny as above be also seen from 5H/5L
from UP, UP Lord, D/9 Lagna (S. 1.4.31).
Alternately: 9H/9L from Lagna, D/9 Lagna and KL.
4 In view of conflicting commentaries and
considering S. 1.4.31, progeny be seen from 5H/5L
(males) 7H/9L (females) from UP, UP Lord, D/9
Lag or D/7 Lagna.

or in 11H (loss of elder one) from UP or UP
Lord.
! Younger brother’s or elder brother’s
pregnancy to one’s mother, loss of mother or
their death:
♦ Venus in 3H (loss of younger co-born)
or in 11H (loss of elder co-born) from UP or
UP Lord.
♦ Venus aspect UP or 8H from them.
! Mars & Saturn aspect 3H (loss of a younger
co-born) or 11H (loss of a elder co-born) from
UP or UP Lord.
! Saturn alone aspects above houses: loss of
Part 6: Jaimini Shastra
all brothers and sisters.
2 Siblings:
! Moon, Mars, Mercury & Jupiter in 3/11H
from UP or UP Lord: many co-borns.
! Ketu as above: many sisters.
! Bhatri Karaka (BK) & 3H/11H from UP well
disposed are good for siblings and vice-versa.
IV 2H from 7L from UP if with:
1 Saturn: native has ugly and deformed
appearance.
2 Rahu: native has protruding teeth.
3 Ketu: stammers or speak indistinctively.
V D/9 sign of AK: gives colour of native.
VI Relationships among progeny or co-borns: As per
LL & progeny or co-born sign lord:
1 Friendship status - mutual Kendra/Tikona:
good and harmonious.
2 Mutually in 6/8H: not good.
VII Practical Method for Progeny & Co-borns:
1 Co-borns: by 3/11H from:
! AL or D/3 Lagna: for self.
! UP: for spouse.
2 Children: by 5H (for males) & 9H (for females)
from:
! D/7 Lagna.
! UP in Rashi.
! UP Lord in Rashi.
3 Order of Co-born or children:
! 1st one from 3/11H or 5H/9H as per case &
2nd and onward every third sign. This order is:
♦ Direct: for odd sign AL/D3 Lagna, D7
Lagna or UP Lagna.
♦ Indirect: for even sign in the above.
4 Sex:
! Male: if the above sign lord is in odd sign
(except 3, 11 signs) & 4, 8 signs.
! Female: if the above sign lord is in even sign
(except 4, 8 signs) & 3, 11 signs.
! Above sign lord retrograde: Male change
to female and vice-versa (more often).
! If co-joined by other planets, the strongest
(Jaimini wise) determine sex as follows:
♦ Male: Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Rahu or a
planet in exaltation.
♦ Female: Moon, Venus, Ketu or a planet
in debilitation.
♦ Neuters: Mercury or Saturn
215
Chapter 19: Jaimini Sutras – A Holistic Summary
(Alternately: female or male respectively)
♦ Rahu with above sign or sign lord
indicate last child.
5 Miscellaneous.
! Association of 2L from a sign with the sign
or sign lord destroys or weakens the child.
! If Venus conjoins - a premature delivery is
indicated but child generally survives. A strong
Venus such as exalted one indicates that the child
will survive. For more than 5 children all the odd
houses (e.g. from 3H or 11H in case of co-borns)
are covered. Their 6th child is seen from 2H from
Lagna.
! See stronger of Mars or Ketu for Scorpio and
Saturn or Rahu for Aquarius.
Chapter: 2.1 (Chapter 2 - Quarter 1)
(Longevity)
I Method I: (S. 2.1.1 to 2.1.9)
1 Three groups of Jaimini parameters:
! LL-8L.
! Lagna-Moon (Neelakantha). Alternately:
Saturn-Moon (Parashar).
! Lagna-HL.
! Sutra is “Evam manda chandrabhyam” (S.
2.1.5). Manda literally means Saturn giving rise
to Saturn-Moon combination. This is Parashar's
view. Jaimini prescribes Katapayadi for
determination of houses & signs. As per
Katapayadi Manda gives 58 and on reversion
become 85; which divided by 12 gives one as
remainder meaning Lagna giving rise to Lagna-
Moon combination as meaning of the above
Sutra. This view is more in accordance with
structure of Jaimini and agreed by the majority. it
also gives correct results. Therefore this meaning
will be considered in the case studies here.
2 Each group’s placement in signs gives longevity
span as follows:
! Movable-Movable or Fixed-Dual
combination give long age.
! Fixed-Fixed or Movable-Dual combination
give short age.
! Dual-Dual or Movable-Fixed combination
give medium age.
3 Life Span: As per Sutra 2.4.19, 9 year's Dasha is
prescribed for a sign giving rise to 108 years as period
of the zodiac consisting of 12 signs. Life span is:
! Long Aayu: 108 years.
! Medium Aayu: 72 years.
! Short Aayu: 36 years.
Part 6: Jaimini Shastra Chapter 19: Jaimini Sutras – A Holistic Summary

! Some use following table for Life Span but ! Kendra (Quadrant): long life.

determinant is in the beginning of a sign contribution V Rashi Vridhi (Longevity increase by a Dasha sign)
to age will be nil and in the end of a sign it is full. (S. 2.1.28):
Exact age is given by following formula (It Does 1 When Lagna or their trines or AK, 7th from AK or
not give correct result): their trines or trines from Jupiter are occupied by full

! Lagna & 8L.
VII Maraka Dasha Sign:
1 Death if longevity span is over; otherwise disease
and bondage.
2 In the Navamsha Dasha of Dwara (Paka) &
Bahya (Bhoga) sign when in malefic signs or malefic
afflicted. If malefic in OH, exalted or with Jupiter it
would not be a Maraka Dasha sign. With benefic
gives mixed results. (S. 2.4.1 to 2.4.6)
3 In case 8L exalted gain of one Navamsha Dasha
(9 yrs.) and in such case death in Navamsha Dasha of
sign trine to LL or 8L or sign of AL or AL Lord. (S.
2.1.17)
4 In Sthira Dasha: (3 Khandas or parts of
longevity) (S. 2.1.30)
! Dasha of 1st four signs (1st part); one of these
signs for short span.
! Dasha of 2nd four signs (2nd part); one of
these signs for medium span.
! Dasha of 3rd four signs (3rd part); one of these
signs for long span.
5 Malefic afflicted Rashi:
! By being in papakartari.
! By malefics in 5/9 or 6/8 from a sign or LL
or AK.
! Death in 8H or 12H sign when weak Moon
& Venus only aspect 8L or 12L. (S. 2.1.32 to
2.1.33)
6 Antar Dasha sign during Dasha of above signs:
given by the sign in D/9 aspected by 8L from Maraka
Dasha. (S. 2.1.34)
VIII Maraka Dasha (Second Type) – Rudra Sign:
(S. 2.1.35 to 2.1.45)
1 Rudra: Stronger of 8Lfrom Lagna or 7H i.e., 8L
or 2L (from strength of their signs). Sign of placement
of Rudra sign is Rudra Sign. Weaker of 8L and 2L if
aspected by malefic (Sun is benefic in death or
marriage in Jaimini) then that one is also Rudra
(weak). This gives two Rudras one weak and other
strong. Stronger one aspected by benefics and weaker
one aspected by malefics are death inflictor.
! There are 11 Rudras in a chart – 11 signs
except sign of Jupiter.
! Rudra wields trident (trishula), therefore the
Dasha system initiating from Rudra is known as
Shoola Dasha.
! Benefic aspect of Rudra are evoked by
‘Rudrabhisheka’ by offering: water/lamp (Sun),
milk (Moon), bel (Mercury), ghee (Jupiter) and
flower (Venus).
217
Chapter 19: Jaimini Sutras – A Holistic Summary
2 Time of death from Rudra:
! Rudra (strong) benefic aspected and Rudra
(weak) with benefic, then trine (1, 5, 9) to Rudra
are Maraka signs.
! Death in Shoola Dasha: (S. 2.1.37 to
2.1.40)
Longevity Shoola Dasha signs for Shoola
Span death from Rudra sign to Dasha
Short Rudra sign to 4th from it 1st
Medium 5th from Rudra to 8th from it 2nd
Long 9th from Rudra to 12th from it 3rd
! When Rudra is aspected by or with benefic –
death in the 3rd (last of the three - 9th from Rudra
to 12th from it) Shoola Dasha.
! When Rudra aspected by malefic (excluding
Sun) without benefic association or aspect death
in the 1st Shoola Dasha (Rudra sign to 4th from it).
! Death in the 2nd Shoola Dasha (5th from
Rudra to 8th from it), when Rudra:
♦ aspected by Moon, Mars & Saturn and
no benefic association by conjunction or
♦ conjunct with malefics only or
♦ aspected by malefic & benefic both.
3 Death in D/AD of Rudra sign: (S. 2.1.42 to
2.1.43)
! Lagna in Pisces (definite).
! Rudra in 8H (generally).
IX Maraka Dasha (Third Type) – Maheshwara: (S.
2.1.46 to 2.1.48)
1 8L (not in OH or exalted) from AK is
Maheshwara.
2 8L from Maheshwara in OH or exalted then
stronger of 8L or 12L from it (from AK) is the
Maheshwara.
3 If Rahu or Ketu with AK or in 8H from AK:
Maheshwara is 6th planet from AK in the order of
day. Sun onward upto Ketu numbers to be taken are 1
to 9 respectively.
4 If Rahu or Ketu becomes Maheshwara: With
AK in Aries, Ketu as co-lord of 8H-Scorpio or when
AK in Cancer Rahu as co-lord of 8H-Aquarius may
become Maheshwara. In that case 6th planet in order
of weekday i.e. Mercury for Rahu and Jupiter for
Ketu become Maheshwara.
X Brahma: (S. 2.1.49 to 2.1.54)
1 Sthir and Brahma Dashas start from Brahma sign.
These are important for longevity determination.
2 Stronger of 6/8/12L from stronger of Lagna or
7H in odd sign in Visible Half (7H to 12H for strong
Lagna & Lagna to 6H for strong 7H) is Brahma.
3 If none qualify:
Part 6: Jaimini Shastra
! Stronger of 6/8/12L from weaker of Lagna or
7H be considered whether in odd sign in Visible
Half.
! If again none then see if in odd sign in other
half relaxing Visible Half condition.
! If none in odd sign then relax odd sign
condition. (As per Sutra 2.3.27 - Brahma can
be in even sign also.)
4 If Saturn, Rahu or Ketu (Mars & Ketu rules
Scorpio and Saturn & Rahu rules Aquarius)
becomes Brahma: In such case 6th planet in order of
weekday i.e. Mars, Mercury or Jupiter respectively
becomes Brahma.

to 6H) – mother’s last rites will not be performed. If
there is benefic association, son will perform the last
rites of the parents.
3 Nature of death: According to influence on 3H
from Karaka/AL/AK/Lagna. Nature of death if the
affliction is due to:
! Sun: death by political offences, hanging.
! Moon: consumption.
! Moon & Gulika: by indigestible food.
! Mars: by fire, weapon, and injuries.
! Jupiter: by phlegm, vomiting or inability to
consume food. There is prior knowledge of death.
! Venus: urinary, kidney or sexual disease.
! Saturn: windy diseases, indigestion.
! Saturn & Gulika: by poison or drowning.
! Rahu & Sun: by snake bite
! Saturn & Mandi: snake bite, poison, water
& bondage.
! Ketu: small-pox, contagious diseases,
typhoid & other similar water borne diseases.
! Moon & Mandi: intestine or esophagus
blockade, food poisoning.
! Mixed: death from various causes.
! If Moon joins or aspects above
combinations: death from causes mentioned
above are definite.
! Jupiter+Venus: the person dies with full
consciousness or awareness (spiritual destiny).
! Other than Jupiter & Venus: death follows
a period of unconsciousness.

(Strength of Rashi & Planets,
Navamsha, Sthir, Shoola & Brahma
Dashas)
I Strength of Rashi & Planets: (S. 2.3.5 to 2.3.17)
1 First source of strength (main strength – used
for comparison of strength of two planets/signs): (S.
2.3.6 to 2.3.13)
! Placement of Karaka (a planet) in a sign is
stronger than the one without planet.
! Placement of planets in a sign – more the
number of planets greater is the strength.
! If equal no. of planets, then Rashi with AK
or planet in exaltation/OH/FH is stronger.
! If still the same, then see the natural strength
of the signs. Dual is stronger than Fixed which is
stronger than Movable sign.
219
Chapter 19: Jaimini Sutras – A Holistic Summary
! If still the same, then by the strength of sign-
lord.
! If still the same, then the sign with planet
having higher degree is stronger.
! Odd signs having planets in 2/12H gets
strength from them. In even signs this strength is
not available.
2 Second source of strength (used for predictive
purposes e. g. in Chara Dasha, Navamsha Dasha etc.):
(S. 2.3.14)
! Aspect or placement of Jupiter, Mercury &
planet in OH.
3 Third source of strength (used in Kendradi
Dasha etc.): (S. 2.3.15-2.3.16)
! Kendradi strength i.e. planet is strongest in
Kendra to AK, less strong in Panphara and the
weakest in Apoklima to AK.
4 Fourth source of strength : (S. 2.3.17 & 2.3.28)
! Malefic conjunct or aspecting an odd sign or
planet in it makes it strong – strong to kill. This is
used to determine the killer Dasha sign.
! Benefic conjunct or aspected by
exalted/OH/MT/FH sign and planet also gets this
strength.
5 These sources of strength are exclusive to each
other and are used for specific purposes. B. V. Raman
(1986) & later on K.N. Rao gave numerical values the
various sources of strength to obtain strengths of
Rashi & planets. B. V. Raman admitted that it is
adaptation from Parashari and is a departure from
Jaimini & may be considered as arbitrary. It is not
required also as will be seen in case studies. In
Jaimini there are simple sources of strength for
various purposes as detailed in S. 2.3.5 to 2.3.17.

I Mandook Dasha:
1 There is only one Jaimini Sutra for Mandook
Dasha (Sutra 2.4.15) and there is no mention of the
Dasha period. As per this Sutra, the 1st Dasha also starts
from stronger of the Lagna or the 7th House. No Dasha
period is indicated. If Dasha period in not specifically
mentioned in any Jaimini Dasha then as per Sutra
2.4.17, 9 year period be taken. Therefore Dasha period
of Mandook Dasha is 9 yrs.
2 K. N. Rao in his book on Mandook Dasha states that
Mandook Dasha is applied when four or more planets
are in Kendra excluding Rahu/Ketu and Dasha order for
Odd Lagna: From Lagna (direct order); Even Lagna:
From 7H (indirect order). Dasha period is taken as:
! Dasha sign to its lord, no minus one.
! odd sign: direct
! even: indirect
! OH 12 yrs.
! sign-lord in 7H 10 yrs.
! ignore Rahu/Ketu for 11/8 signs.
3 It is humbly mentioned that there is no support of
Jaimini Sutras for the above method. It is the method
akin to Chara Dasha that has been used for calculating
Mandook Dasha period. As per classics the method of
Chara Dasha period calculation is specific to Chara
Dasha only and cannot be applied to other Dasha
systems of Jaimini. The correct method will be
explained in the case studies.

I Longevity – Method III: (S. 3.2.1-3.2.2)
1 Apply longevity criterion to the following pairs and
take majority:
Part 6: Jaimini Shastra Chapter 19: Jaimini Sutras – A Holistic Summary

! LL-8L (for stronger Lagna out of Lagna & 7H) its Bahya (a sign as far away from Dwara as Dwara is

III Three divisions of Longevity Span: (S. 3.2.7 to 3.2.9) occupy:
1 Part of Longevity Span in which death occurs: ! 8H from Lagna & Moon or
! 1st part (10-12 yrs.): Saturn in 7H from Lagna ! 8H from AK & 8H from 7H from AK, i.e. 2H

! 3rd part (30-36 yrs.): Ketu in 7H from Lagna & Venus.
or AK. 8 Navamsha Dasha of cardinal (Movable) sign.
Therefore see Moveable signs near Longevity Span.
IV Longevity – Method IV: (S. 3.2.10 to 3.2.15) 9 In Dasha of 3/6/8/12H from 6H or 6L.

1 3H from AL & 7P in Rashi or Navamsha or 8H
from Lagna or AK: (c.f. S. 2.2.12)
! Malefic afflicted: unnatural death. (Sun gives
death by order of king)
! Benefic associated: natural, peaceful.
! Mixed affliction: mixed result.
2 Other considerations:
! M signs: Punya signs.
! F signs: Pushkar signs.
! D signs: Adhan signs.
! 8H from 8H i.e., 3H is also house of longevity.
! Longevity & health is also determined by LL,
10L, 8L & Saturn.
♦ Long Ayu: If all in Kendra/Tikona and
strong.
♦ Medium Ayu: If two of the planets are
strong.
♦ Short Ayu: If only one of the above planets
is strong:
! LL, 5L & 8L in OH/own Navamsha/FH gives
long age.
3 5H or 7H from AL & 7P in Rashi or Navamsha
are:
! M sign: unnatural death
! M sign in one & other in dual or fixed:
untimely death
! 3/5/7H from AL & 7P aspected by Aries and
Jupiter: death inside the house.
III Nature of death:
1 By nature of signs, lords & the strength of 8H from
AL, 7P, Lagna & AK.
2 Chara Karaka averts death in Dasha of their
signs e.g. in Shoola Dasha sign with AK will not kill
the native. Similarly, sign with Dara Karaka will not
kill the spouse. Instead Fixed Karaka sign will kill.
Chara Karaka protects.

! Aries or Pisces: unnatural death.
! Gemini: by consuming poison.
! Cancer: great danger from acute fever or by
pox or by cholera or watery disease.
! Leo: killed/fear by enemies.
! Libra: leprosy.
! Sagittarius: by sword or by lethal weapon.
! Capricorn: violent tragic death.

Case Study - Chara, Mandook and Vimshottari Dasha Systems

Executive Summary: Principles of Ashtakvarga are precise and give definite indication regarding fructification of events.
However, they are always studies with transit rules and both are subordinate to the promise and Dasha/Antardasha indicated in
a horoscope. Therefore, the promise and Dasha/Antardasha must be analysed first before applying transit and Ashtakvarga
principles. In this case study three aspects - Marriage and loss of husband, Progeny – birth and loss and Political success and
failures of a political personality are discussed in detail with regard to the promise in horoscope and concerned divisional
charts. Vimshottari, Chara and Mandook Dasha Systems have been used with detailed method of calculation of Jaimini dashas
as per classics and their effectiveness is verified in this chapter. Subsequently transit and Ashtakvarga rules are applied.

I The Case: We are taking the case of Indira Gandhi, the

ex-Prime Minister of India as the details of events in her life
are well known. This will enable truthful verification of the
principles analysing promise, timing, transit and
Ashatakvarga. In the case study the methods of calculations
of Chara Dasha and Mandook Dasha systems have been
explained in detail. The composite analysis of Chara,
Moondook with Vimshottari Dasha proves conclusively the
correctness of calculation method for Mandook Dasha as
outlined in the previous chapter. Her birth details are given
below:
Date of Birth: 19 Nov 1917
Time of Birth: 23:11 Hrs.

Indira actually married Firoz – a person outside her D1 - (29.3.42-marriage date transit planet in light colour)
religion on 29.3.42. Dasha scheme operative was Rahu-
Saturn-Saturn. This is a marriage giving
Dasha/Antardasha/Pratyantardasha for the native.
3 Marriage Timing – Chara Dasha: Timely
marriage is indicated for the native. Chara Dasha of
Pisces from 19.11.39 to 19.11.49 (22-32 yrs. of age) will
give marriage. Pisces is 9th from Arudha Lagna (Cancer -
as per Jaimini) and has Jaimini aspect of Rahu, Ketu &
Venus - 7H Karaka which is also marriage giving.
Gemini is with Ketu and has aspect of Rahu and Venus
and is suitable for marriage. In D9 chart we have Pisces
Lagna and Gemini in 4th house. Antardasha of Gemini in
Pisces Dasha is from 19.7.41 to 19.5.42 – probable
marriage period. Actual marriage took place on 29.3.42.
! If we take Libra – Aruda Lagna (AL) as per
Parashar, then Dasha-Antardasha would be of

XV Progeny Analysis:
1 Progeny Promise - Progeny parameters and their
status in the horoscope:
! 5H is in Scorpio with Sun, 2L indicating
family and with the dignity of a Great Friend in the
horoscope with natural benefic Mercury and
aspected by Mars and Jupiter - two male planets -
Mars being 5L and Jupiter Karaka - both male
planets indicate male progeny.
! 5L Mars is in 2H in great friend’s sign and
there is an exchange of 5L/10L Mars and 2L Sun -
indicating good promise for progeny. Male planets
indicate male progeny.
! Jupiter, the Karaka for progeny is 9L/6L in
11H with 32 SAV and itself having 6 bindus in
Taurus. In case of woman 9L is also Karaka for
children and powerfully aspecting 5H shows
promise of more than one male progenies.
! 5L from Jupiter is Mercury and is in 5H, a
friend’s sign (Panchdha Maitri) for Mercury in the
horoscope having aspect of Mars and Jupiter - two
male planets in its OH and FH respectively. This
show male progeny.
D/7 Chart:
235
! Kshetra Sputa (KS) The sum of longitudes of
Mars+Jupiter+Moon is in Cancer at 6o 57’ in Lagna
and in Navamsha in Virgo in 7H. Both sign and
Navamsha are in even sign and for woman these
indicate a very good promise for progeny. Similarly
Putra Saham (Jupiter-Moon +Asc.) can also be seen.
! In D7 also there is promise of male progeny.
Lagna being even for woman, 9L counted indirect
for even Lagna is Mars in own house giving male
progeny. Second child is given by 11L (indirect
count) Mercury in odd sign would also give male
progeny.
2 Progeny – Vimshottari Dasha: The probable
Dasa/Aantardasa being Ra-Sa-Ju from 7-06-44 to 24-
10-44 and Ra-Me-Ju from 14-08-46 to 17-12-46.
Jupiter posited in Taurus with 32 SAV bindus and with 6
bindus in its BAV in Taurus is eminently posited to
bestow its signification as Karaka for male progeny
during its Partyantar Dashas.
3 Indira gave birth to two sons, during the above
periods, Rajiv on 20.8.44 and Sanjay on 14.12.46.
Incidentally Sun in 5H and Mercury as 12L in 5H also
indicate loss of a progeny. Her second son Sanjay died
in plane crash on 30.6.80. The aspect of Mars on 5H
also indicates progeny loss in brutal accident.
4 Progeny –Chara Dasha:
! First Son – Rajiv (DOB: 20.8.44): He was
born during the Chara D/AD of 12-6 (AD of Virgo
in Pisces Chara Dasha). Pisces is 5th from Putra
Karaka Mercury and Virgo is 11th from Putra
Karaka – both competent to give progeny.
! Second Son Sanjay (DOB: 14.12.46): Chara
D/AD of 12-9 was running from 19.7.46 to 19.5.47.
Pisces is 5th from Putra Karaka Mercury and
Sagittarius is 2nd from it. Both give progeny.
5 Progeny – Mandook Dasha:
! First Son – Rajiv (DOB: 20.8.44): He was
born during the Mandook D/AD of 4-5 (AD of Leo
in Cancer Mandook Dasha). Mercury – Jaimini
Putra Karaka (PK) is 5th from Lagna of Cancer sign.
5L Mars is in Leo and Sun – lord of Leo is with PK
in 5th house. Therefore both – Cancer & Leo in their
D/AD (4-5 from 18.2.44. to 18.11.44) are competent
to give progeny.
! Second Son Sanjay (DOB: 14.12.46):
Mandook D/AD of 1-7 (AD of Libra in Dasha of
Aries) was running from 18.5.46 to 18.2.47. Aries
has Jaimini aspect of Mars – 5L, Sun – the depositor
of 5L with Mercury – the PK is in 5H. 5H, PK and
Sun all have strong Jupiter’s aspect. Majority of
male planets are associated with progeny parameters

their status:
! Venus as 4L – Lord of 4H indicating king or

is aspected by retrograde Jupiter (6L/9L) from
previous house making her very popular and
fortunate in political field.
! Mars - as 10L/5L represents professional
successes and State, is Yogakaraka posited in 2H
and has aspect of retrograde Jupiter (6L/9L) from
the previous house. It has a powerful exchange with
Karaka of state Sun in 5H – a Lakshmi Sthana and
represents State also. Sun also aspected by Jupiter.
All these show popularity and success in political
field and gain of political crown.
! Saturn representing masses is in Lagna
aspected by LL - Moon from 7H, giving her great
popularity.
! Moon - the LL is also aspected by Jupiter -
6L/9L making her extremely fortunate and

Sagittarius is 12th from Amk and Gemini is 12th
from AK indicating some conspiracy mixed

achieve the success. Thus 8-3 combination gave
her the throne by victory over enemies and
conspiracy.
♦ Loss of PM Post - Chara D/AD of 6-11

Virgo is in 3H from AK aspected by
Rahu/Ketu. Aquarius is 8th from AK & Lagna D1 Chart - 2nd Time PM (with transit on 14.1.80 in light)

Jupiter (6L/9L) in 11H and Saturn its own house in
Aquarius aspected natal 10H and 10L. Prior to this

Jaimini Case Studies – Shoola, Navamsha, Sthir & Brahma

Dashas for Longevity Determination

Executive Summary: Parashar system provides mathematical and Dasha-Antardasha methods of determination of longevity.
Mathematical methods more often than not result in determining longevity quite far from the actual. Similarly Dasha-
Antardasha method, though more accurate, still lacks the preciseness given by Jaimini Sutras. Jaimini provides many Dasha
systems specific to longevity determination known as Ayur Dashas. Most important are Shoola Dasha, Sthir Dasha, Brahma
Dasha and Navamsha Dasha. Concept of Rudra for a relative for determination of a relative’s longevity is also unique to
Jaimini system. These provide powerful and accurate methods of determination of longevity not only for the native but also for
his relatives.

Part I – Jaimini Sutras and Longevity astrologers.

I Background:
1 Longevity of a native has always been the most
important query posed before an astrologer. Parashar
system provides mathematical and Dasha-Antardasha
methods of determination of longevity. Mathematical
methods more often than not result in determining
longevity quite far from the actual. Similarly Dasha-
Antardasha, though more accurate, still lacks the
preciseness given by Jaimini Sutras. Jaimini provides
many Dasha systems specific to longevity determination
known as Ayur Dashas. Most important are Shoola
Dasha, Sthir Dasha, Brahma Dasha and Navamsha
Dasha. Concept of Rudra for a relative for determination
of a relative’s longevity is also unique to Jaimini
system. These provide powerful and accurate methods
of determination of longevity but are unknown to the
Parashar system. However, Updesa (Jaimini Sutras) are
riddled with certain degree of mysticism partly because
Jaimini Maharishi chose to write in indicative Sutras
couched in Katapayadi language for signs and houses
and partly as they have some gaps here and there giving
rise to speculation. Import of predictive knowledge from
Parashar is also then used to fill in the gaps. This has
given rise to a number of conflicting commentaries by
several eminent scholars, who in their wisdom gave the
best possible explanations of the Sutras. This caused
confusion, even in the minds of discerning readers. Still
they provide a powerful predictive tool in the hands of
5 In this chapter an attempt has been made to
delineate the essence of Jaimini Sutras after a careful
and holistic study of commentaries on Jaimini Sutras
with respect to longevity determination, application of
Shoola Dasha, Sthir Dasha, Brahma Dasha and
Navamsha Dasha. Concept of Rudra for a relative for
determination of a relative’s longevity is also discussed
with large number of case studies. In Part I of this article
the essence of the Jaimini Sutras with regard to the
methods of longevity determined in various Sutras,
determination of Maraka Dashas and method of
calculation of four Ayur Dasha - Shoola Dasha, Sthir
Dasha, Brahma Dasha and Navamsha Dasha have been
dealt with. In Part II case studies showing actual
calculations of Ayur Dashas and longevity have been
explained.
6 Jaimini sutras are supposed to be in eight Chapters.
However, texts of only four chapters are available. Each
of these four chapters is in four Pada (Quarter). The
Sutras are arranged in each of the quarter of a chapter.
Accordingly in this article, for ease of locating a Sutra in
the original text, they have been numerically labelled in
three-parts separated by a dot, indicating chapter, pada
and sutra number. Most of the commentaries have been
for the first two chapters – including the excellent
commentary by Neelkantha.
7 The methods of longevity and Maraka Dasha
determinations are given in Sutras in 1st pada of second
chapter and 2nd pada of 3rd chapter. The Sutras for Ayur
dashas - Shoola Dasha, Sthir Dasha, Brahma Dasha and

240
Part 6: Jaimini Shastra
Navamsha Dasha are given in 3rd pada of 3rd chapter. All
these have been subjected to rigorous scrutiny to arrive
at the most logical and consistent interpretation avoiding
all controversies and variations in the analysis of
different commentators on the subject. However, these
commentaries have been of great help in outlining the
integrated interpretation given in the chapter.
II Longevity - Method I: (S. 2.1.1 to 2.1.9)
1 Three pairs of Jaimini parameters:
! LL-8L
! Lagna - Moon
! Lagna – Hora Lagna (HL)
! Some commentators have interpreted Saturn-
Moon pair instead of Lagna - Moon pair. If this is
accepted then applicability of Kakshya Hrasa (S.
2.1.10 to 2.1.14) and Rashi Hrasa (S. 2.1.29) will
be jeopardized as Saturn plays important role in
these sutras.
2 Longevity Criterion: It is determined by the
mobility of signs of each of the above three pairs. It is as
follows:
! MM or FD (Movable-Movable or Fixed-Dual
signs): Long Aayu.
! DD or MF (Dual-Dual or Movable-Fixed signs):
Medium Aayu.
! FF or DM (Fixed-Fixed or Dual-Movable
signs): Short Aayu.
3 If the life span indicated by all the three are
different then:
! Lagna - HL prevails.
! If in this case Moon is in Lagna or 7H, then:
♦ Lagna - Moon pair prevails.
3 Life Span: As per Sutra 2.4.19, 9 year's Dasha is
prescribed for a sign giving rise to 108 years as period
of the zodiac consisting of 12 signs. Life span is:
! Long Aayu: 108 years.
! Medium Aayu: 72 years.
! Short Aayu: 36 years.
6 Kakshya Hrasa (Span decrease):
! Lagna or 7H hemmed between malefics
(Papakartari) or malefics in tikona (5, 9) to Lagna or
to 7H from Lagna. (S. 2.1.23)
! AK or 7H from AK hemmed between malefics
(Papakartari) or malefics in tikona (5, 9) to AK or to
7H from AK. (S. 2.1.24)
! AK being malefic is debilitated or malefic
associated. (S. 2.1.25)
! Jupiter or 7H from Jupiter in Papakartari or
tikona from Jupiter or 7H from Jupiter malefic
241
Chapter 21: Case Study – Longevity Determination
afflicted. (S. 1.2.27)
! Afflicted Saturn’s association with longevity
parameters. (S. 2.1.10 to 2.1.14)
♦ No Hrasa when Saturn is in OH or exalted
– even afflicted. Hrasa when Saturn is
otherwise i.e., in EH, debilitated or afflicted.
♦ Saturn itself when becomes a longevity
parameter does not cause Kakshya Hrasa.
! Short span with one Kakshya Hrasa becomes
Yogarishta (12 - 20 years) and Yoga Aayu if
subjected to a Kakshya Hrasa will give Balarishta (0
– 12 yrs.).
! Kakshya/Rashi Hrasa is applied first before
applying Kakshya/Rashi Vridhi.
7 Kakshya Vridhi (Span increase): (S.2.1.26 to
2.1.27) Reverse of the above Para:
! Lagna or 7H hemmed between benefics (Subha-
kartari) or benefics in tikona (5, 9) to Lagna or 7H
from Lagna.
! AK or 7H from AK hemmed between benefics
(Subha-kartari) or benefics in tikona (5, 9) to AK &
7H from AK.
! AK being benefic is exalted or only benefic
(without malefic) associated.
! Jupiter or 7H from Jupiter in Subha-kartari or
tikona from Jupiter or 7H from Jupiter benefic
associated.
! If there is both malefic and benefic association
there is neither loss nor gain of Kakshya.
8 Rashi Vridhi (Longevity increase by a Dasha sign
– 9 years): (S. 2.1.28)
! When full Moon and Venus occupy Lagna & 7H
or their trines or AK, 7H from AK or their trines or
Jupiter and 7H from Jupiter or their trines.
6 Rashi Hrasa (Longevity decrease by a Dasha
sign):
! When Saturn occupy one of above signs. (S.
2.1.29)
! Malefics associated with: (S. 3.2.23 to 3.2.25)
♦ Dwara (Dasha sign) and Bahya (sign as much
away from Dwara as Dwara is away from Lagna).
This will not happen when:
• Moon is in Dwara sign or aspects it.
• Dwara or Bahya sign has benefic
association.
♦ Lagna (dwara) & 8H from it.
Part 6: Jaimini Shastra
IV Three divisions of Longevity Span: (S. 3.2.7 to 3.2.9)
Part of Longevity Span in which death occurs is given by:
1 1st part (10-12 yrs.): Saturn in 7H from Lagna or
AK.
2 2nd part (12-24 yrs.): Rahu in 7H from Lagna or
AK.
3 3rd part (24-36 yrs.): Ketu in 7H from Lagna or
AK (Atma Karaka).
4 Alternately: Three divisions of Longevity Span:
! 1st quarter of span: 8L in 10/11/12H.
! 2nd quarter of span: 8L in 7/8/9H.
! 3rd quarter of span: 8L in 4/5/6H.
! 4th quarter of span: 8L in 1/2/3H.
IV Longevity - Method II: (S. 2.1.19 to 2.1.22)
1 According to stronger of 8L from Lagna & 7H
and AK & 7H from AK: Stronger of 8L/2L from
Lagna and AK is considered and strength is determined
by the strength of their signs (First source of strength -
S. 2.3.6 to 2.3.13)
2 If the strongest is in:
! Kendra (Quadrant): long life.
! Panphara (Succedent): medium life.
! Apoklima (Precedent): short life.
3 2H/8H counting order: As per Lagna or AK sign
is:
! odd sign: direct counting.
! even sign: indirect counting.
4 Kakshya Hrasa in above: If 8L from Lagna or 8L
from 7H (2L) becomes AK or is with AK then reduction
of a Kakshya is done. (S. 2.1.22)
1 Kakshya (Span) Reversal: If AK is in 3H from
Lagna (count direct or indirect as per Lagna is odd or
even), then there is span reversal. Long becomes short
and vice-versa, medium remains medium. (S.2.1.10)
VI Longevity - Longevity – Method III: (S. 3.2.1-3.2.2)
5 Apply longevity criterion of Method I to the
following pairs and take majority:
! LL-8L (for stronger Lagna out of Lagna & 7H)
or 7L-2L (for stronger 7H out of Lagna & 7H).
! Lagna-AK
! Lagna-7H
6 Kakshya Hrasa – other rules: (S. 3.2.3 to 3.2.6)
! Mars and Saturn aspect Kendra to Jupiter or are
in Kendra to Jupiter.
! Moon in 8/12H from Lagna or Jupiter or AK.
VI Longevity – Method IV: (S. 3.2.10 to 3.2.15)
5 Three pairs are:
! 3H-11H from Lagna.
242
Chapter 21: Case Study – Longevity Determination
! 3H-11H from AK.
! 3H-11H from Moon.
6 Longevity is determined as follows: Note that this
criterion is different from the Method I.
! MM-MF: Long Span.
! FF-FD: Medium Span.
! DD-DM: Short Span.
7 Majority gives the result. If strong Sun is with or
aspect a longevity factor, then that pair has final
say. (S. 3.2.22)
8 Kakshya Hrasa in above when: (S. 3.2.16 to
3.2.21)
! Saturn is in 7H from Lagna, Moon or AK.
! Saturn is in 4/6/12H from Lagna, Moon or AK.
! Saturn is with LL or 7L.
VII Balarishta: (S. 3.2.37 to 3.2.42)
5 Malefics in 3/6/8 & 12H from 6H & 6L.
6 Conjunction of Moon, Saturn and Rahu in any of
the above sign.
7 Moon, Saturn and Rahu or malefics in one of the
trine (1, 5, 9) from 6H or 6L. Strongest is the killer.
8 8H & 12H from 6H or 6L malefic afflicted and
without benefic association.
9 Death in sub-period of 6L.
VIII Rudra Sign: (S. 2.1.35 to 2.1.45)
5 Rudra: Stronger (First source of strength - from
strength of their signs) of 8L from Lagna or 7H i.e.
8L or 2L. Placement of Rudra is Rudra Sign.
Weaker of 8L and 2L if aspected by malefic (Sun is
benefic in death or marriage in Jaimini) then that
one is also Rudra (weak). Thus there are two
Rudras one weak and other strong; the stronger one
aspected by benefic and weaker one aspected by
malefic are death inflictor. Count is zodiacal.
6 Significator for parents: (S. 2.2.1 to 2.2.7)
! Pitra Karaka: stronger of Sun and Venus.
! Matri Karaka: stronger of Moon and Mars.
7 Maraka sign:
! Stronger one aspected by benefics –
benevolent to kill.
! Stronger one aspected by malefics –
malevolent to kill.
XVII Determination of Rudra Sign: Stronger of 8L
from Karaka or 7H from Karaka (i.e. stronger of 8L or 2L
from Karaka). Alternatives are:
1 Alternative I: Rudra from Jaimini Chara
Karaka: Stronger of 8L/2L from AK-self, BK-sibling
& father, MK-mother, PK-putra, GK-maternal uncle.,
Part 6: Jaimini Shastra
DK-spouse.
2 Alternative II: Rudra from Jaimini Sthir
Karaka: Mars-younger siblings; Mercury-maternal
uncle aunts & relatives; Jupiter-paternal grand parents,
children, husband; Venus-wife’s parents and grand
parents. (S.1.1.10 to 1.1.24, Chapter 1.1).
3 Alternative III: Rudra from Jaimini Natural
Karaka: Stronger of Su & Mo (Father) and Mo & Ma
(Mother)
4 Alternative IV: Rudra from a relative's house:
Relative Relative’s Rudra -
Stronger of 8L from
Father & 9H from Lagna & 7H from
Parental Relatives 9H (9H & 3H)
Mother & Maternal 4H from Lagna & 7H from
relatives 4H (4H & 10H)
Younger Brother 3H from Lagna & 7H from
3H (3H & 9H)
Progeny 5H from Lagna & 7H from
Elder Brother 5H (5H & 11H)
Native 8H from Lagna & 7H from
8H (8H & 2H)
1 Death in Shoola Dasha of 1, 5 or 9th from 8L of the
stronger of above signs (Karaka/significator) or in
Dasha of the relative’s Rudra sign. (S. 2.2.6 to 2.2.11)
! If Sun and Mercury co-join them 1/3/5/12H
from them could cause death of father.
! If only malefics (other than Sun) aspects
parent’s significator, the parent dies within 12 years
of native’s age.
! Spouse dies in Shoola Dasha signs trine to
Jupiter.
! Nature of death as per benefic/malefic/mixed
influence on 3H from significator. (S. 2.2.12 to
2.2.21)
Maheshwara: (S. 2.1.46 to 2.1.48)
8L (not in OH or exalted) from AK is Maheshwara.
2 When 8L from AK is exalted or OH then stronger
of 8L or 12L from it (from AK) is the Maheshwara.
3 If Rahu or Ketu is with AK or in 8H from AK-
Maheshwara is:
6th planet from AK in order of day.
4 If Rahu or Ketu becomes Maheshwara: With
AK in Aries, Ketu as co-lord of 8H - Scorpio or when
AK in Cancer, Rahu as co-lord of 8H - Aquarius may
become Maheshwara. In that case 6th planet in order of
weekday i.e. Jupiter for Ketu (Ketu being 9th planet,
Jupiter is 6th from it and Mercury for Rahu (Rahu
243
Chapter 21: Case Study – Longevity Determination
being 8th planet Mercury is 6th from Rahu) become
Maheshwara.
5 When more than one planet become Maheshwara,
take the strongest one as Maheshwara. Count is
zodiacal.
Brahma: (S. 2.1.49 to 2.1.54)
1 Stronger of 6/8/12L from stronger of Lagna or 7H
in odd sign in Visible Half (7H to 12H for strong Lagna
& Lagna to 6H for strong 7H) is Brahma.
2 If none qualify:
Stronger of 6/8/12L from weaker of Lagna or 7H be
considered whether in odd sign in Visible Half.
If again none then see if in odd sign in the other half –
Invisible Half (7H to 12H for weak Lagna & Lagna to 6H for
weak 7H) relaxing Visible Half condition.
If none in odd sign than relax odd sign condition and
start again from Para 1 above. (Brahma can be in even sign
also - Sutra 2.3.27)
3 8L form AK in OH or planet in 8H from AK is
also Brahma.
4 If Saturn, Rahu or Ketu (Mars and Ketu rules
Scorpio and Saturn and Rahu rules Aquarius)
becomes Brahma: In such case 6th planet in order of
weekday (Sun to Ketu take nine numbers) i.e. Mars,
Mercury or Jupiter for Saturn, Rahu or Ketu respectively
becomes Brahma.
5 If more than one are Brahma:
Brahma is the one with highest degree (for
Rahu and Ketu deduct degree from 30o (S.
2.1.52) in a sign.
If degrees are same take strongest one.
6 Counting is in regular order.
XII Jaimini – Ayur Dasha System:
1 In order to determine the Dasha sign during which
death of a native may take place, Maharishi has given
many rules – some are specific to some dashas and
others are of general applicability. The concerned Sutras
are in 1st pada of 2nd chapter, 2nd pada of 3rd chapter, 3rd
pada of 3rd chapter and 2nd pada of 4th chapter.
Commentaries on these have been analysed at great
length to arrive at a holistic and integrated picture
devoid of contradictions. These are enumerated below.
2 The important Ayur dashas are Shoola Dasha, Sthir
Dasha, Brahma Dasha and Navamsha Dasha. There
method of calculation indicating 1st Dasha, Dasha order,
Dasha period for main Dasha and Antardasha are given
in following table.

XIII Maraka Dasha – A summary: After analyzing
various rules mentioned above, following system of
determination of Maraka Dasha for longevity determination
have been considered in the case studies.
4 Maraka Dasha: (S. 2.1.56 to 2.1.60)

244
Part 6: Jaimini Shastra
! Death in sign of 8H or trine to 8H from
Lagna or AK. If malefic & benefic both in 8H and
aspected by benefic will not die in Dasha of 8H.
! Death in a sign prior to Dwara sign when
malefic or Rudra occupy:
♦ 8H from Lagna (Dwara) & Moon.
♦ 2H & 8H from Dwara.
! During the periods & sub-periods of 8H from
Sun and Venus.
! Navamsha Dasha of cardinal (Movable) sign.
Therefore see movable signs near Longevity Span.
! In Dasha of 3/6/8/12H from AK, 6H or 6L.
8 Navamsha Dasha:
! Death in sign of 8H or signs trine to 8H from
Lagna or AK. If malefic & benefic both in 8H and
aspected by benefic person will not die in Dasha of
8H. (S. 3.2.29)
! Death in Dasha of Dwara & Bahya signs in
malefic signs or malefic afflicted. Not if malefic is
in OH, exalted or with Jupiter or when benefics
own or aspect the Dwara and Bahya signs. (S.
2.1.15 - 2.1.16)
! In case 8L exalted gain of one Navamsha
Dasha (9 yrs.) indicated and in such case death is in
Navamsha Dasha of sign trine to LL or 8L or sign
of AL or AL Lord. (S. 2.1.17 - 2.1.18)
9 Sthir Dasha:
! In Sthir Dasha (also in Brahma Dasha)
longevity extends from Brahma sign Dasha to
Maheshwara sign. The AD is of sign trine to 8L
from Maheshwara. (S. 2.1.55 – 2.1.56)
! In Sthir Dasha there are 3 Khandas or parts of
longevity (S. 2.1.30) as per Longevity Span:
♦ Short Span: In Dasha of one of the 1st
four signs (1st part).
♦ Medium Span: In Dasha of one of the 2nd
four signs (2nd part).
♦ Long Span: In Dasha of one of the 3rd four
signs (3rd part).
10 Time of death from Rudra:
! Death in Shoola Dasha: (S. 2.1.37 to 2.1.40)
♦ When Rudra is aspected by or with benefic
– death in the 3rd Shoola Dasha (last part of the
three - 9th from Rudra to 12th from it).
♦ When Rudra aspected by malefic (exclude
Sun) without benefic association or aspect
death in the 1st Shoola Dasha (Rudra sign to 4th
from it).
♦ Death in the 2nd Shoola Dasha (5th from
Rudra to 8th from it), when Rudra:
245
Chapter 21: Case Study – Longevity Determination
" aspected by Moon, Mars and Saturn
and no benefic association by conj. or
" conjunct with malefics only or
" aspected by malefic & benefic both.
! Death in D/AD of Rudra sign: (S. 2.1.42 to
2.1.43)
♦ Lagna in Pisces (definite).
♦ Rudra in 8H (generally).
11 Death of Native: (S. 3.3.120-121, 126-127)
! In period or sub-period of stronger of 6H from
Lagna or 7H.
! 3H from Lagna/AK/KL: Out of these most
afflicted be considered along others.
! Lagna or AK in:
♦ Movable sign: by 3H from Lagna or AK.
♦ Fixed sign: by 2H from Lagna or AK.
♦ Dual sign: by 4H from Lagna or AK.
! Mars, Saturn and Rahu are malefics in
Jaimini. Sun, Ketu among others are benefics. (S.
2.3.30)
! The concept of Dwara and Bahya is
applicable to all Dasha systems of Jaimini
(Neelakantha on S. 2.4.23). The period and sub-
period of these signs can bring serious ill health,
worries or death (when longevity span is over)
during their period.
! A sign benefic associated is weaker to kill.
! A sign malefic associated is stronger to kill.
! The sign occupied by the lord of Dasha sign
(Dwara) in known as Paka sign & Arudha of Paka
sign (a sign as far away from Paka sign as Paka is
away from Dwara) is called Bhoga Rashi.
Alternately, some commentators take Dwara sign
as Paka Rashi and Bahya sign as Bhoga Rashi.
Earlier view is more logical.
! Death normally does not occur in sign of
AK/Karaka/significator or signs aspected by them.
XIV Balarishta: (S. 3.2.37 to 3.2.42): As explained
above.
XV Antar Dasha Summary: Antardasha is given by:
1 Signs trinal to Maheshwara or 8L from
Maheshwara.
2 Signs of strongest of 6/8/12L from 7H from AK
or Lagna.
3 Sign of Rudra.
4 When Dwara & Bahya afflicted death in Dasha
of former and AD of later.
5 In Navamsha Dasha, in Navamsha Sign of Maraka
planet (Lord of Maraka sign) & 6L from Maraka sign.

Dasha. (S. 2.1.34)
8 In period or sub-period of stronger of 6H from
Lagna or 7H.

XVI Strength of Rashi & Planets for Longevity:

1 First source of strength (main strength): (S. 2.3.6
to 2.3.13) This is primary source of strength used for
comparison of strengths of two signs in ayur Dasha
system of Jaimini for determination of Maraka Dasha,
Shoola Dasha, comparison of strength of two lords by
their placement in different signs etc. A summary of
these sutras is delineated below.
Placement of Karaka (AK) in a sign gives maximum
strength to a sign.
Placement of planets in a sign – more the no. of planets
greater is the strength.
If equal no. of planets, then Rashi with planet in
exaltation/OH/FH is stronger.
If still the same, then see the natural strength of the
signs. Dual is stronger than Fixed which is stronger than
Movable sign.
If still the same, then by the strength of Rashi-lord.
If still the same, then Rashi with planet having higher
degree is stronger.
Odd signs having planets in 2H/12H gets strength from
them. In even signs this strength is not available.

2 Second source of strength: (S. 2.3.14)

Aspect of conjunction of Jupiter, Mercury & planet in
OH.

3 Third source of strength: (S. 2.3.15-2.3.16)

Kendradi strength i.e. planet in Kendra to AK is
strongest, medium strong in Panphara or the weakest in
Apoklima.
D/9 Chart:
4 Fourth source of strength: (S. 2.3.17 & 2.3.28)
Malefic conjunct or aspecting an odd sign or planet in it
makes it strong – strong to kill. This is used to determine the
killer Dasha sign.
Benefic conjunct or aspect of exalted/OH/MT/FH sign
and planet also gets this strength. This does give a killer
Dasha.

5 In longevity determination and calculations of Ayur

Dashas, determination of Maraka Dasha first and four
sources of strengths as enumerated above are used.

Part 6: Jaimini Shastra
1 Longevity Span – Method I: The three pairs give
long span as follows:
! LL - 8L: Movable-Fixed = Medium span.
! Lagna – HL (Hora Lagna): Mov.-Mov. = Long
span.
! Lagna – Moon: Mov.-Mov. = Long span.
! Majority, the two pairs give long span,
therefore age comes as 108 yrs.
! Kakshya Hrasa: Lagna, LL and Moon are
hemmed between malefics giving rise to a Kakshya
Hrasa. The longevity span becomes medium (72
years).
! 8L is in Lagna therefore death in last quarter of
the span. One span is equal to 36 years. One quarter
is 9 yrs. Therefore death indicated during the period
63-72 years.
! Rashi Vridhi: Moon in own house in Lagna
and Venus in trine to Jupiter does give Rashi
Vridhi.
! Longevity Span of native is arrived as 72-81
years.
2 Longevity Span – Method II:
! AK is Moon posited in Lagna. Lagna being
even counting indirect from Lagna/AK, 8L is
Jupiter and 2L is Mercury. Both are with one planet
each. Mercury is Amk and is with Venus in MT and
Jupiter is in OH with Ketu. Therefore Mercury is
stronger by the first source of strength of signs and
planets. Mercury is in Kendra giving long span of
108 years.
! Kakshya Hrasa rules given for this i.e. 8L from
Lagna or 7H is not AK or with AK, don’t exist.
Applying Kakshya Hrasa and Rashi Vridhi of
Method I, the span becomes medium to 72-81
years.
3 Longevity Span – Method III:
! Lagna with Moon-AK in OH is stronger than
7H without planet. The three pairs are:
! LL-8L - Mov.-Fix signs = Medium span.
! Lagna – AK: Mov-Mov. signs = Long span.
! Lagna – 7H: Mov-Mov signs = Long span.
! Majority of these gives two long span and this
gives long Aayu of 108 years age.
! Kakshya Hrasa: Moon in 8H from Jupiter
gives a Kakshya Hrasa for this method and
therefore longevity is reduced to 72 years.
! Rashi Vridhi: Moon in own house in Lagna
and Venus in trine to Jupiter does give Rashi
Vridhi.
! Longevity Span of native is arrived at 72-81
years.
247
Chapter 21: Case Study – Longevity Determination
4 Longevity Span – Method IV:
! The three pairs:
♦ 3H-11H from Lagna: D-F = Long span.
♦ 3H-11H from AK: D-F = Long span.
♦ 3H-11H from Moon: D-F = Long span.
! All the three give medium span. The age of
native is arrived at 72 years.
! Kakshya Hrasa: Kakshya Hrasa rules specific
to this method is applicable.
! Rashi Vridhi: One Rashi Vridhi as in method
I. We get age of 81 years.
! 8L is in Lagna therefore death in last quarter of
the span during 72-81 years.
! Longevity Span of native is arrived as 72-81
years.
5 Maheshwara:
! 8H from AK is Aquarius ruled, in Jaimini, by
Saturn and Rahu. Saturn is in fixed sign with
Jaimini aspect of Venus and Mercury, whereas
Rahu is in dual sign with aspect of three planets
Mars, Jupiter and Ketu. Therefore, Rahu is stronger.
! Rahu is exalted therefore, stronger of 8L or
12L from it becomes Maheshwara. 8L Saturn is
without planet and therefore, 12L Venus is with a
planet is stronger.
! Venus in Libra is the Maheshwara.
6 Brahma:
! Lagna with a planet is stronger than 7H. From
Lagna:
! 6L Jupiter is with Ketu in OH.
! 8L Saturn without planet.
! 12L Mercury in friend’s house with Venus in
MT.
! Out of these Mercury - 12L is the strongest.
! None of them in odd sign in visible half of the
zodiac.
! From 7H, 6L is Mercury - Amk is with Venus
in OH, 8L Sun alone in Scorpio and 12L Jupiter in
OH with a planet Ketu in enemy house.
! Strongest Mercury is in odd sign in visible half
(for 7H).
! Mercury in Libra becomes Brahma.
7 Shoola Dasha for native’s death:
! Native’s Rudra: Moon - AK is in Lagna. It is
stronger of 8L from AK Saturn/Rahu (co-lords of
Aquarius) and 2L from AK Sun. Sun aspected by
Moon, the AK, is not killer. Rahu in dual sign in
Moola Tikona sign and aspect of three planets
Mars, Jupiter and Ketu is stronger than Saturn.
Therefore, Rahu in Gemini is the Rudra for
native.

there is benefic and malefic both influences are
there, Rashi Hrasa not indicated.
! Rashi Vridhi: There is no combination for
Rashi Vridhi.
! Longevity Span of native is arrived as 20+36
= 56 years. 8L is in Lagna therefore death in last

2 Longevity Span – Method II:
! Lagna being odd counting direct from Lagna
8L is Jupiter and 2L is Mercury. Mercury and
Jupiter both in same sign and both with four
planets. Both are in NH with same sign lord.
Mercury has higher longitude making it stronger.
Therefore Mercury is stronger by the first source of
strength of signs and planets. Mercury is in Kendra
giving long span.
! Riders of Kakshya Hrasa for this method are
applicable. 8L from Lagna is with AK (Mercury)
give one Kakshya Hrasa. 2L is AK gives another
Kakshya Hrasa. Span reversal given for this
method is not applicable. Applying two Kakshya
Hrasa the longevity reduced to short span (36
yrs.)
! Applying normal Kakshya Hrasa and Kakshya
Vridhi as in Method I, the longevity comes to 45-56
yrs.
3 Longevity Span – Method III:
! Lagna with five planets is stronger than 7H.
♦ Pair LL-8L is in Fix-Fix signs = Short

♦ Lagna – AK: F-F signs = Short span.
♦ Lagna – 7H: F-F signs = Short span.

! This gives short longevity span of 36 yrs.
! Kakshya Hrasa – other rules: The rules given

! Longevity Span of native, after applying
Kakshya Hrasa/Vridhi rules as in Method I and 8L

♦ 3H-11H from AK: Dual-Mov. = Short

♦ 3H-11H from Moon: Dual-Mov. = Short

Rahu/Ketu in neither with AK or in 8H from AK.
Therefore, rider for Maheshwara not applicable and
Jupiter in Leo is the Maheshwara.
6 Brahma:
! Lagna with five planets is stronger than 7H.
Out of 6L/8L/12L from Lagna, 6L Saturn is in odd
sign in Visible Half for Lagna making it Brahma.
8L from AK is not in OH and there is no planet in
8H from AK for other planet to acquire status of
Brahma. As Saturn is becoming Brahma sixth

! Native’s Rudra: It is stronger of 8L/2L from
AK. 8L Jupiter and 2L Mercury both are in Leo and
with four planets each, but Mercury with at higher

Jaimini Case Study - the number, sex and sequence of Co-borns

Executive Summary: The number, sex and sequence of co-born are some the important questions posed to an astrologer.
Jaimini Sutras provide methodology for the same. In this chapter number, sex and sequence of co-borns have been dealt with
using principles laid down in Jaimini Shastra. A details analysis of Jaimini Sutras has been done to delineate the principles for
determining number, sex and sequence of co-borns. The chapter also includes large number of case studies to help in using
these principles in daily use by the astrologers.

Case Study Jaimini - the number, sex and sequence of Progeny

Executive Summary: The number, sex and sequence of progeny are some the important questions posed to an astrologer.
Jaimini Sutras provide methodology for the same. In this chapter number, sex and sequence of progeny have been dealt with
using principles laid down in Jaimini Shastra. A details analysis of Jaimini Sutras has been done to delineate the principles for
determining number, sex and sequence of progeny. The chapter also includes large number of case studies to help in using
these principles in daily use by the astrologers.

Veda, Vedic Astrology, Modern Science and Welfare of Society

Executive Summary: The Vedas are the oldest scriptures known to exist, being well over 5,000 years old. The vast ocean of
Vedic knowledge encompasses both material and spiritual knowledge. Vedic Astrology, being an appendix to the Vedas, is
thoroughly steeped in Vedic thought and philosophy. This means that the practitioner of the science must have earnestly
assimilated the Vedic philosophy and lived the life of a Vedic Brahmana, with all its attendant spiritual practices. Astrology as
a part of the Vedic literature has been preserved and handed down in the Guru-Shishya parampara, the chain of apostolic
succession, since time immemorial.

I Veda and its relation with Vedic Astrology:
1 Veda means knowledge. The word comes from the
Sanskrit language and is derived from the verb root,
‘vid’ meaning ‘to know’.
2 There are four Vedas - namely the Rig-Veda,
Yajur-Veda, Sama-Veda, and Atharva-Veda - all are
emanations from the breathing of Brahma, the Creator
of universe and one of the Trinity Gods.
3 The Upanishads - also belong to the Vedas, in
fact, they are taken to be the actual explanations of the
Vedas. Each Veda has a set of Upanishads associated
with it.
4 The Puranas are traditionally called the ‘Fifth
Veda’ and this too is established by authoritative quotes
from the Vedic literature.
5 Each Veda has two distinct portions, known as
mantra and brahmana. The mantra section contains
hymns to the fire, the sun, the air, the sky and the wind
or to the respective deities who personify these
elements. The brahmana section contains descriptions
of the rituals and ceremonies in which the mantras were
supposed to be used.
1 The Rig-Veda contains astronomical references
that are based on knowledge of:
! the phenomenon of precession. The Vedic
culture expressed through the Rig-Veda employed
sidereal time.
! the point of vernal equinox or winter solstice is
mentioned as having occurred or occurring in
particular lunar constellations, called nakshatras.
IV Vedanga –Limbs of Veda:
1 Besides the scriptures mentioned above there are
also the six Vedangas, literally ‘limbs of the Vedas’.
These are auxiliary works, the study of which is
considered to be essential for the proper
understanding of the Vedas. These six limbs are:
! Shiksha - the science of pronunciation;
! Kalpa - the process of performing sacrifice;
! Vyakarana- the rules of grammar;
! Nirukta - the meanings and derivations of
difficult words used in the Vedas;
! Jyotisha - astronomy and astrology; and
! Chhandas - Vedic meters of poetry.

II Vedas - oldest knowledge: 2 Each of these limbs is extensive and requires

1 Vedic literature provides us with more original
ancient teachings than what we have from all the rest of
the world put together. Even by the most conservative
estimates the four Vedas date around 5000 BC. In
ancient Greek - the works of Homer (700 BC); in the
middle-east the Hebrew Bible and the Old Testament
(500 BC); the Gathas of Zoroaster (525 BC) of ancient
Persian empire; the I Ching (1000 BC) of China and the
Egyptian Book of the Dead (3000 BC) are some of the
other oldest books in the world. Thus we see Vedas are
the oldest of the ancient literature in the world.
III Vedas and Astronomy:
serious study.
V Vedic Astrology & Guru-Shishya Parampara:
Astrology as part of the Vedic literature has been preserved
and handed down in the guru-shishya parampara - the chain
of apostolic succession, since time immemorial. Vedic
Astrology is the original form of astrology that existed
thousands of years ago in the Indian subcontinent. It
gradually spread by diffusion into other cultures such as the
Babylonian, Persian, Greek, Chinese, etc.
VI Vedic Astrology and Vedic Astrologer:

289
Annexure I: Veda, Vedic Astrology, Modern Science and Welfare of Society
1 The Vedas are the oldest scriptures known to exist,
being well over 5,000 years old. The vast ocean of
Vedic knowledge encompasses both material and
spiritual knowledge. Vedic astrology, being an
appendix to the Vedas, is thoroughly steeped in Vedic
thought and philosophy. This means that the
practitioner of the science must have earnestly
assimilated the Vedic philosophy and lived the life of a
Vedic Brahmana, with all its attendant spiritual
practices.
2 The combined effect of genuine philosophical
knowledge coupled with an authentic spiritual lifestyle
cannot be overestimated when it comes to developing
the divine vision and ability that is so necessary for
enabling an astrologer to properly guide others. Thus it
is by divine grace that one is able to take up Vedic
astrology. In order to obtain divine grace and vision,
consultations should start with an invocation to Lord
Ganesha (or any other Divinity as per faith and belief of
the astrologer) - propitiation of which is done before
any auspicious act.
VII Theory of Karma:
1 Sanchit (accumulated karma of all previous lives),
2 Prarabdha (given fate in this life as reflected in
the horoscope and
3 Kriyamaan (free will in the hand of native) is built
within the Vedic astrology. One can improve adverse
fate or negate good fate by his Kriyamaan (Free-will).
Consultations include advice on Kriyamaan to deal
with life problems and ward off malefic influences in
the horoscope.
VIII Philosophy of cycle of Birth & Re-birth:
Philosophy of cycle of Birth & Re-birth is also built-in the
above Theory of Karma.
IX Astronomical Basis of Vedic Astrology:
1 Vedic astrologers follow a rational procedure based
on the following factors:
! The solar system: Our solar system is
centered around the Sun. Nine planets viz.
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn,
Uranus (or Herschel), Neptune and Pluto along
with a belt of asteroids revolve in elliptical orbits
around the Sun. In Vedic astrology, Uranus,
Neptune and Pluto find no place. On the other hard,
the classics recognize the Moon and the two
shadowy points known as Rahu and Ketu, which
are the Moon’s nodes as equivalent to planets.
They are not physical bodies but are
mathematically calculated sensitive points of
intersection of the orbits of the Moon and the Sun.
! Zodiac: The Sun’s annual path is known as
ecliptic. The belt of heavens extending 8 degrees
on either side of the ecliptic is known as the
290
Zodiac. In this belt the Moon and the planets
appear to move. The Zodiac is divided into twelve
equal parts of 30 degrees each, which are called the
Signs, or the Rashis of the Zodiac. These have
been named as Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo,
Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn,
Aquarius and Pisces. A planet rules each sign.
Different signs have different characteristics, which
play an important role in the delineation of
astrological charts.
! Stars or Nakshatras: The entire zodiac has
been divided into 27 equal parts of 13 degrees and
20 minutes each known as Nakshatra or asterism or
a constellation (Moon mansion). Every
constellation has been assigned a planetary ruler.
! Time : The various measures of the time are
local mean time, standard time for any country or
Zone and the Greenwich mean time. There is
another system/measure of time known as Sidereal
Time. The Sidereal time is zero hour when the
beginning of Aries (in Sayana system) crosses the
observer’s meridian.
X Ascendant or Lagna: In astrology, the first hour is
reckoned from Lagna point. The Lagna or the ascendant is
the rising sign in the eastern horizon at a particular epoch. It
is the point of intersection of the ecliptic at a given time
with the horizon of a place. The Lagna is dependent on the
rotation of the Earth on its axis and so it is dependent on the
Sidereal Time of a place at a given moment or epoch.
XI The houses: There are 12 houses. The sign where the
Lagna point falls is known as the first house or Lagna.
The next sign is second house, next the third and so on. In
Vedic system the sign and the house are deemed
synonymous. The Zodiac is constantly moving and all the
12 signs get an opportunity to become Lagna in the 24 hours
comprising a day. Janma Rashi (birth sign) means the sign
containing Moon at the time of birth and this sign is called
Chandra Lagna (Moon ascendant) and is as important as the
Lagna itself.
! Aspects: An aspect means a certain distance
between two planets or zodiacal positions, at which
these exert some influence over each other.
! Ayanamsha: The projections of the earth’s
equator on the celestial sphere is known as celestial
equator. When the Sun moves off celestial equator
towards the north, the point where it cuts the
celestial equator is called vernal equinox and the
point of intersection during Sun’s motion from
north to south is called autumnal equinox. Each
year when Sun reaches the vernal equinox, the
position of earth with respect to a fixed star known
as Revati is found to be nearly 50.3 seconds of arc
of space farther west than the earth was at the same
Annexure I: Veda, Vedic Astrology, Modern Science and Welfare of Society
equinoctial moment of the previous year. Thus the
equinoxes recede back along the ecliptic. The
angular distance between the first point from
where the fixed zodiac commences and the
vernal equinox point is known as Ayanamsha.
The Hindu system of astrology observes the fixed
zodiac also known as Niryana zodiac as the first
degree of Aries reckoned from a particular star in
Revati group of stars that is fixed. However, the
Western system of astrology observes movable
zodiac also known as Sayana, a zodiac that reckons
the first degree of Aries from the vernal equinox. It
is estimated that both these zodiacs coincided in the
year 285 AD.
XII Subdivisions of Vedic Astrology: There are three main
sub-divisions of astrology:
1 Samhita: This deals with collectivity or
multitudes. It encompasses such varied areas as
weather forecasts, agricultural produce, natural
disasters, floods, famines, earthquakes, cyclones,
market trends, changes in government, national and
international events, and virtually anything that
influences the masses.
2 Siddhanta or Tantra or Ganita: This deals with
the mathematical aspects of astrology. This includes
knowledge of astronomy and calculation of latitudes,
longitudes or planets ascendant, houses etc. A
proficiency in mathematical aspect of astrology is
considered as a prerequisite for a good astrologer.
3 Hora: It deals with:
! Individual horoscopes or Jataka, or natal
charts.
! Muhurta or electional astrology, which
concerns itself with the election of favourable
planetary dispositions to achieve specific
accomplishments in day-to-day life.
XIII Scientific Basis of Astrology:
1 Science means knowledge ascertained by
observation and experiment, critically tested,
systematized and brought under general principles.
Astrology strictly fulfills all these criteria. Two aspects
of astrology deserve a special mention:
! The cause and effect phenomenon: In
physical sciences, there may be a gross cause or a
subtle cause, producing a physically visible or
gross effect. Gravitation, which is a subtle cause,
produces a gross effect of attracting a physical
body towards the earth. In the case of astrology,
the cause is always subtle while the effect is
appreciable and predictable according to rules that
have been developed and refined over the centuries.
The subtle cause in case of astrology is the cosmic
291
force represented by the disposition of the various
heavenly bodies or ‘planets’.
! The phenomenon of replication: It may be
pointed out here that every correct astrological
prediction, in fact, underscores the principle of
replication is astrology. Since astrology is a
complex science, it’s every known principle has to
be applied carefully, considering the numerous
parameters and weighing the various pros and cons.
In the ancient Indian scriptures, for example,
numerous astrological dicta lie hidden. Unfolded
and carefully applied today, they prove their eternal
applicability and give dazzling results.
2 The Vedas describe an ultimate reality, which they
call Brahman. The awareness of this reality is attained
through the practice of yoga and meditation. “Aham
Brahmasmi” (I am Brahman) is the statement of this
realization and identification, which is synonymous
with the concept of nirvana. Concepts of Brahman and
nirvana are integral to the different schools of Indian
and Buddhist Philosophy. However until, recently, they
had not been subject to scientific scrutiny. Physicists
have discovered that the various quantum fields, which
underline all physical reality, arise from one common
source, namely the unified field. There is an over all
connection between two primary realities - the unified
field and consciousness.
3 John Wheeler and Roger Penrose, the foremost
theorists about space and time believe that the mysteries
of consciousness and quantum physics are linked.
Penrose insists that a universe whose laws do not take
consciousness into account is not much of a universe.
The theory that consciousness emerged as a natural
consequence of the unique features of our universe has
become a topic of much scientific discussion. It is
called the “Anthropic Cosmological Principle”.
4 In quantum physics consciousness could scarcely
play a more pivotal role. No quantum phenomenon is a
phenomenon until it is observed in a communicable
form by a conscious observer. For example, a photon
exists both as a wave and as a particle, but the
individual property of a wave or a particle becomes
manifest only when it is observed.
5 According to Vedic and Buddhist spiritual
traditions, consciousness is not something that comes
about merely through the functioning of neural
connections in the brain but is a basic characteristic of
all reality, a spirit pervading all manifestations. The
role of the human nervous system is to provide an
appropriate material structure to individualize
consciousness. In other words, we are the tuners of the
all-pervading field of cosmic awareness. The
discoveries of modern quantum physics seem, therefore,
Annexure I: Veda, Vedic Astrology, Modern Science and Welfare of Society
to parallel Vedic and Buddhist conjectures about the
nature of reality.
XIV Vedic Astrology and Welfare of mankind:
1 There is intimate relationship that exists between
the movements of those ‘mysterious intelligences’ -
planets in the heavens and the fortunes and misfortunes
of men, rise and fall of empires, ebb and flow of human
passions and the regeneration and degeneration of arts,
sciences, literature and philosophy.
2 A certain subtle power, derived from nature,
pervades the entire universe and the earth we inhabit is
also subject to this mysterious and subtle power. The
motions of this ethereal power alter the various
elements encompassing all matter. The acts of
creations (sristhi), protection (sthiti) and destruction
(pralaya) are embedded in the womb of the all-powerful
time and these variations are brought about as a
consequence of this subtle power.
3 The Sun by his daily movements and the changes
of seasons brings to perfection the embryo in plants and
animals and brings about various changes on the earth.
The Moon being nearest to the earth exercises much
influence on it and as she wanes and waxes - rivers
swell, the tides of the sea are ruled and the plants and
animals affected. The Sun as the central figure
predominates over the entire arrangement of the
celestial system.
*******
292
XV Thus, it invariably follows, that all bodies in nature,
whether animate or inanimate, are subject to the motions of
the celestial bodies. Astrologer interprets what it conceives
to be the future of man as molded by his previous ‘Karma’
and indicated by the planetary positions at the time of birth.
XVI The greatest men of the world believed in and
practiced astrology. Dante declared it to be the highest, the
noblest and without defect. Kepler, Bacon, Pythagoras and
Democritus were masters in astrology. The ancient
Hebrews called the astrologer ‘Asphe’ meaning ‘the
mouthpiece of the star’. It is recorded that Newton was
attracted to the study of mathematics and astronomy by the
contemplation of an astrological figure of the heavens.
XVII When one has acquired a thorough knowledge of
the everlasting and ever changing influences of the stars, he
will be able to prognosticate correctly the mental and
physical qualities of any man and the fortunes and
misfortunes that await his and his progress in the world.
Thus by knowing the future correctly, man can so create an
environment in which he can cope with the adverse periods
of his life and alleviate the evils, indicated by the planets to
a great extent. The human will is free to a certain extent and
advance knowledge of the future can enable one to mitigate
many evils. There is a proverb: ‘Fools obey planets while
wise men control them’.

Vimshottari Dasha Calculations

I Vimshottari dasha System: This is one of the most
important dasha systems for delineating the timing of the
promise indicated in a birth chart. We take following case
for calculation of Vimshottari Maha Dasha, Antardasha,
Pratyantar Dasha, Sookshama Dasha & Pran Dasha.
D1 – Chart:
2 Birth Nakshatra (Nakshatra occupied by Moon at
the time of birth) of Yamamoto: Revati
3 Revati Nak. Lord is Mercury – allotted a dasha
(period or mahadasha) of 17 years for 13°20’ (i.e.,
800’) – span of each nakshatra.
! Revati starts at 11s 16° 40’
! Revati ends at 12s 00° 00’

4 Balance of Dasha at Birth:

s
° ’
! End of Revati: 12-00-00
! Moon Long.: 11-26-05
! Balance of Revati (a-b): 00-03-55
(235’)
! Balance of Mercury dasha: (235x17)/800
yrs. = 4.99375 years.
! Dasha Balance (of Mercury) at Birth: 4
years 11 months 28 days.

5 Alternative Method: From Table of Balance of

Vimshottari Dasha by Longitude of Moon (given at the
end of Ephemeris).
! Moon is in Pisces at 26:05
! From above Table balance of dasha for Moon
in Pisces:
Yr. M. D.
! For 26:00 5 1 6
! Proportionate for 5mt. -1 8
! Mercury Dasha Balance 4 11 28

1 DOB: 10.01.2003
2 Dasha Balance at birth: 28.11.4
3 Mercury dasha upto (a+b): 08.01.2008

Case Study – Jaimini Lagnas & Katapayadi

The Case 1 Ghatika (Isht Ghati x 30o)+Sun or Lagna

D1 Charts: Lagna as per Lagna is odd or even.
Isht Ghati = 41:51:50 = 41.86 Gh.
(Rounded)
41.86 x 300 = 1255.800 = 175.80
(Subtracting multiples of 3600)
= 5s 250 48’ + 3s 270 22’ (Lagna
longitude Lagna being even)
= 9s 230 10’
Capricorn 230 10’

Alternately:
Isht Ghati/12 = 41.86/12 reject
quotient 3 and take remainder 5.86.
Take integer as signs and convert
decimal portion in to degrees. We
get:
5s 0.85 x 300 = 5s 250 48’
Add Lagna + 3s 270 22’
= 9s 230 10’
Capricorn 230 10’

Parashara Alternative:
Always add Sun’s longitude
whether Lagna is odd or even:
5s 250 48’ + 7s 040 07’ (Sun Lagna)
= 12s 290 54’
Aries 290 54’

2 Hora Lagna (Isht Ghati x 30/2.5)o + Sun or Lagna

(HL) as per Lagna is odd or even.
Each Hora (2.5 ghati) is equal to
300. Therefore each ghati is equal to
120. Therefore Hora Lagna is given
by:
41.86 x 120 = 502.320
= 142.320 (Removing multiple of
3600)
S. Lagna Formula = 4s 22.320 = 4s 220 19’
No. Add Lagna + 3s 270 22’

349
Annexure XVI: Case Study – Jaimini Lagnas & Katapayadi
= 8s 190 41’
Sagittarius 190 41’
Alternate I:
Isht Ghati/2.5 = 41.86/2.5 = 16.744
Quotient gives sign 16s i.e. 4s and
remainder converted to degrees
(.744 x 300 = 22.32 = 220 19’) gives
degrees.
4s 22.320 = 4s 220 19’
Add Lagna + 3s 270 22’
= 8s 190 41’
Sagittarius 190 41’
Alternate II: h m s
Isht Ghati in hrs. T.O.B.: 23:11:00
- SR Time: 06:26:16
= 16:44:44
Taking hours as signs (removing
multiples of 12) and minutes divided
by 2 as degrees we get:
4s 220 22’
Adding Lagna + 3s 270 22’
we get = 8s 190 41’
0
Sagittarius 19 41’
Parashara Alternative:
Always add Sun’s longitude
whether Lagna is odd or even:
4s 220 19’+ 7s 040 07’ (Sun Lagna)
= 11s 260 26’
Pisces 260 26’
3 Vighati Lagna (Isht Ghati in Vighati/5) x 30o + Sun
or Lagna as per Lagna is odd or
even.
Isht Ghati = 41:51:50 = 2511:50
vighati = 2511.83 vighati
2511.83 x 60 = 15,078.980
Removing multiples of 3600 we get
310.980 = 10s 10.980 = 10s 100 58’
Add Lagna longitude + 3s 270 22’
= 14s 80 20’
i.e. 02sS 80 20’
0
Gemini 8 20’
Alternately:
Vighati/5 = 2155.83/5 = 502.366s
Removing multiples of 12 from
quotient and reducing decimal part
to degrees we get:
10s 0.366 x 300 = 10s 10.980
= 10s10’ 58’ Add Lagna longitude
+ 3s 270 22’ = 14s 80 20’ = 02s 80
20’
Gemini 80 20’
350
4 Bhava Lagna (Isht Ghati x 30o/5)o + Sun or Lagna
as per Lagna is odd or even.
41.86 x 6 = 251.160 = 8s 11.160
= 8s 110 09’ Add Lagna longitude
+ 3s 270 22’ = 12s 080 31’
i.e. 00s 80 31’
Aries 80 31’
Alternatly:
Isht ghati/5 = 41.86/5 = 8.372s
= 8s (.372 x 30)0 = 8s 110 9’
Adding Lag. 3s 270 22’ = 12s 080
31’
i.e. 00s 80 31’
Aries 80 31’
Parashara Alternative:
Always add Sun’s longitude
whether Lagna is odd or even:
8s 110 9’ + 7s 040 07’ (Sun Lagna)
= 15s 150 16’ i.e. 3s 150 16’

@ All Rashi and Bhavas have their respective Varnada
Rashi. Planets don’t have Varnada Rashi. Bhava number
from Varnada Rashi taking it as a Lagna represents a
relative as in a normal chart. Interpretation of good or bad
for a relative corresponding to that Bhava is done by
considering benefic or malefic influence on the Bhava.
Other use of Varnada is to find Maraka Dasha.

by Moon. Therefore, the 1st division
is ruled by 5th daylord from Moon
i.e. Venus. 2nd division is ruled by
Saturn. Ascendant at the ending of
2md division is the Gulika. 2nd
division would end at 20:33:48.
Ascendant calculated for the date of
birth – 19.11.1917 for Allahabad is
given by:
2s 230 10’ – Gemini 230 10’.
8 Navamsha As in Parashari Navamsha Lagna for:
Lagna - Movable Lagna is equal to sign
counted upto Navamsha division
number from the Lagna.
- Fixed Lagna is equal to sign
counted upto Navamsha division
number from the 9th sign from the
Lagna.
- Dual Lagna is equal to sign
counted upto Navamsha division
number from the 5th sign from the
Lagna.
Mathematically: Navamsha Lagna
degree is arrived as follows:
Lagna x 9 = 3s 270 22’ x 9
= 3.91 x 9 = 35.21s
= 11.21s (removing multiples of 12)
= 11s 060 18’
Pisces 060 18’
I Background: In Jaimini Shastra Katapayadi system of
coding for Houses and Rashi is used. In the west it is known
as Gematria - a system of assigning numerical value to a
word or phrase, in the belief that words or phrases with
identical numerical values bear some relation to each other, or
bear some relation to the number itself as it may apply to a
person's age, the calendar year, or the like. Although
ostensibly derived from Greek, it is largely used in Jewish
texts, notably in those associated with the Kabbalah. There is
a vast literature of Kabbalah mysticism based on Gematria. It
was considered necessary to do so to preserve the secrecy and
also it may not fall in the hand of a novice for any misuse of
the secret knowledge.
II Katapayadi Table: In this system only Hindi consonants
have been assigned numerical values and the vowels and part
of a consonant are not considered.

5 6 7 8
III Interpretation: Consider word "manda" - ma (5) & da
(8) making it 58. Now it is reversed to get 85. There are 12
Rashi or Houses and divide by 12 to get remainder as 1
indicating Lagna or Aries sign. The choice depends upon the
nature of Jaimini Sutra and the context in which the word is
appearing.
