they suffer from Kedradipatya Dosha. - Jupiter lord of 7th and 10th
• When a benefic planet Kedradipati it loose the ability
to deliver benefic results.
• It should not be concluded that the malefic results due
to Kendradhipathya Dosha.
• They will become neutral.
Kendradhipathya Dosha
• The malefics being lord of Kendra will not give inauspicious results.
• Lagna being lord of 1st house, lord of both Kendra and Trikona is always
supposed to give benefic results.

Note:
• Lagna lord owning another Kenda 4th, 7th or 10th shall not prove
inauspicious.
• A malefic even if it owns a Kendra will not become auspicious,
though it will
not be inauspicious. We may consider it to be neutral.
• Weak Moon by virtue of lord of Kendra becomes neutral.
• The intensity of Kendradipatya Dosha will be in descending order- Venus,
Jupiter, Mercury, Moon.

Bhavat-Bhavam
• The concept of bhavat-bhavam means that from the bhava in question, it is the future
bhava. Bhavat means future.

• So it is as if the bhava is born again in the future. Translated to English it can mean as
“from house to house”.

• Bhavat Bhawam is a concept which says that whichever house you are looking to grasp
results, look at that house and additionally look at the house which is exactly at same
number of house away.

• Like, if you are looking for the results of 2nd house then also look for 2nd from the 2nd
house. Now, which house is 2nd from 2nd house, well it is 3rd house (start counting
houses from 2nd house then 2nd house becomes 1st and 3rd house becomes 2nd from
2nd house).

• Bhavat Bhawam of 5th house (Education, Children etc. ) -

• Bhavat Bhawam of 6th house (Debts, Diseases, Enemies

Avastas of Planets

There are 5 types of Planetary Avasthas


• 1. Baalaadhi – Based on Maturity
• 2. Jagradadi – Based on Alertness
• 3. Deeptaadi – Based on Status
• 4. Lajjitaadi – Based on Mood (such as proud, shy etc.)
• 5. Shayanaadi – Based on Condition of activity

1. Bālādi Avastās Result
0° to 6° Infant [Bala] 24° to 30° ¼
6° to 12° Youthful [Kumara] 18° to 24° ½
12° to 18° Adolescent [Yuva] 12° to 18° Full
18° to 24° Old [Vriddha] 6° to 12° Very less
• Baalaadhi – maturity
24° to 30° Dead [Mrita] 0° to 6° Poor
• This state reflects the maturity of the planet and there are five kinds listed in the table.
• A planet in Bala avastha will have a child-like energy to it, and like a child will not be able to exhibit
the full potential of its strength. In fact, a planet in Bala avastha displays only about one-fourth of the
strength that would otherwise be predicted for it.
• 2. Kumara means youth in an adolescent stage and like a vigorous youth, a planet in kumara avastha
gives one-half of its results since, though strength is present, the wisdom needed to direct that
strength, which is derived from experience, is usually lacking.
• 3. Yuva, which also means young, indicates a young adult who has had sufficient experience to gain
some of life’s wisdom. A planet in Yuva avastha gives full results.
• 4. Vriddha means aged and indicates a planet which has entered its senior, retired years; it gives
minimal results.
• 5. Mrita means dead; relatively speaking, dead planets produce no results, though every planet
does

2. Jāgratādi Avastās
• This condition shows the general alertness of the planet and there are three types.
• When a planet in own sign or exaltation is known as a Waker or Jagrit.
• In the waking state, the planet is fully aware of the physical, mental and emotional world and its working.
• A planet in dream state or Swapna avastha is highly emotional and lives in the reality that is projected by
circumstances and its mind.
• A planet in deep sleep or “shushupti” and is ignorant of what is happening in the outside world. It is natural that
planet is not useful for acquiring material possessions.

Functional Benefic and Functional Malefic
• The planets deliver the result according to their significations.
• However, the signification gets modified according to its lordship from the Lagna.
• Due to this modification, a natural benefic may become functionally malefic and visa
versa.
• A Functional Benefic planet is a planet which modifies its signification according to
lordship it occupies from Lagna and gives good result to the native.
• We will identify Functional Benefic and Functional Malefic for each lagna based ont
their lordship in a horoscope.
Functional Benefic and Functional Malefic
• There are set of principles laid down to determine whether a planet is functionally benefic or
malefic.

• Lord of Lagna, 5th and 9th lords [Trikona Lords] are always auspicious for all Ascendants.
• Lord of the lagna lord is always benefic as he is lord of Trikona and Kendra.

• Benefic planets owning Kendra tend to loose their benefic qualities but they don’t behave exactly like a
malefic, unless they are associated with other malefic houses or their lords.

• Malefic planet owing Kendra houses tend to loose their malefic tendency but they don’t behave like a
complete auspicious planet unless they are associated with benefic houses or their lords

• The lord of 11th, 6th and 3rd houses are most malefic in decreasing order for any lagna.

• Lord of 2nd, 8th and 12th house acts as neutral.

• Lord of 2nd, 8th and 12th houses when simultaneously lords over 3rd, 6th and 12th, then they acts as
the most malefic planet for that Ascendant.

Dignity of Planets
• Exaltation (Uchcha)
• Exaltation is the position of a planet in a particular sign enhances the planetary
influences on their peak level.
• This is most idealistic condition for a planet to deliver its best it is in perfect harmony
with the nature of the Sign.
• In this placement, the planet feels in high morale, energy, position, exhilaration and
strength.
• Exaltation is a state of potency, of agreeableness, honour, vanity, confidence and
composure.
• It is then in good dignity and this gives the planet, ability to make sure effect on the
house it sits and owns.
• However, this does not mean that the Planet is likely to act responsibly, in again
depends
on Avastha in which it is. The high energy doesn't guarantee a great experience.
• Exalted planet when it is retrograde, combust or posited in inimical Navamsha can produce
evil result.[Jataka Parijata]
Dignity of Planets

• Debilitation (Neecha)
• Debilitation is exactly opposite sign (and degrees) is the sign of fall (debility), the planet
suffers loss of strength and a reduction of potency.
• This is where the inherent nature (natural signification) of a planet is not in harmony
with the nature of the Sign.
• It is observable that in the Kaalpurush Chakra (natural zodiac with Aries Lagna), the
Signs correspond with the significations of the House numbers. Thus, the reason of
debility of planets also correlates to some extent with that of natural house.
• It can be observed, that typically, a planet fails to give great results in this house of
debility of the Kaalpurush Kundali, and, often correspond with the Maranakaraka Sthana
of the planet.
Dignity of Planets

• Debilitation is the state of uneasiness for a Planet. It is the loss of composure for a planet and
brings awkwardness and agitation to the planets.
• In such a situation the effects are not always bad for a native, but this loss will have an impact for
sure, even if the Planet is a Dusthana lord.
• If the Planet's nature is incompatible with the energy of the sign it is in, the disharmony leads to
weaking of the Planet's sense of honour, so, it gives inadequacy of its natural gifts, its house ruler
ships as well as house it sits in.
• It is as if the planet is inept to deal with the responsibilities thrust upon it, as its skills do not
match with the requirements. Its like having to wear a wrong size of shoe.
• A debilitated planet gives unfavorable results pertaining to its lordship, as well as for the house
where it is posited

Planetary relationship- Graha Sambandha
Planets gets relationship or Sambadha in following ways.
• Association
• When two or more planets are posited in a sign/ house in birth/ Navamsha chart, irrespective
of their distances within the sign, they are called to be in association.
• Conjunction
• The two planets are said to be in conjunction, when they are posited in a sign/ house. The
intensity of result of conjunction is more if they are located very close to each other.
• Depositor/ Controller
• A planet is related to its depositor.
• The two planets would be related if the dispositor of one is in relation with the depositor of
the other. The strength/ weakness of a depositor are equally important as the strength of the
planet itself.
• A strong depositor will be able to offset the weakness of the planet concerned or vice-versa.
• Therefore it is also called the controller of the planet.
Planetary relationship- Graha Sambandha

• Mutual Exchange [Parivarthana]


• One of the most intricate relationship develops between two planets when they are
posited in each other's sign.
• Either planet is tenant of the other and so under full scrutiny of the other, Hence the
characteristics of the concerned planets, signs & houses get suitably enriched.

• Nakshtra
• A planet occupying the Nakshtra of a planet is strongly related to it e.g. if Moon is in
Nakshtra of Venus, it is related to Venus.
• Again if two or more planets posited under the same Nakshtra lord irrespective of their
position of sign/ house are said to be in relation and act in a similar way.
Planetary relationship- Graha Sambandha

• Through Navamsha
• A planet placed in a sign in the birth chart shall be related to any planet that occupies the
same sign in the Navamsha chart or vice versa.

• Aspect
• Discussed under Chapter - Planetary Aspects.
Sun in Aries
 Aries is exaltation sign of Sun and he is 5th lord from this sign. The native likes frequent wandering.
Due to Sun’s exaltation, native will have excessive heat and energetic.
 They should have good appearance, strong body with strong bones.
 Mars is lord of Aries. Both Mars and Sun treat each other as friends. It is perfect combination for
Royal and Commanding nature. The native will have pleasant personality, Royal look, Commanding

combination of Soul and head. With the influence of Martian aggressiveness, the combination
endows the native with great leadership abilities. The native obviously likes to have tendency to
rule and crave for commanding position. You can see many politicians influential personalities.
 The native is intelligent, active, owns of lands. He will become head of village or town, involved in
social and welfare activities, and has prominent personality. He will be famous in Arts, fond of war,
fierce, fond of roaming, dutiful, do valorous deeds etc. He will be well conversant with shastras and
will comment upon them.
 Again, Sun representing soul, present in this sign makes the native able doctors, poison curing
physicals, healers.

Nakshatras
• Terminologies and Usage –
• Generally the terminology of Nakshatra used in our daily life is in Panchanga and Janma
Naksha\tra.
• Nakshatra of a given day –
• It is Nakshatra in which moon is travelling on any day
• Let us take example of today. We need to figure out in which Nakshatra Moon is travelling. That is
the Nakshatra of today.
• Janma Nakshatra –
• In any natal horoscope, the nakshatra in which Moon is posited is called Janma Rashi.
• Let us take example of a person born on 18.10.2020. on that day, moon is Vishakha Nakshatra.
Vishakha Nakshatra will become Janma Nakshtra for that native.
• Usage in Horoscope-
• Position of planets-
• We measure position of planet where it is posited in a horoscope.
• For Example if the Sun is posited in 24 degree of Mesha/Aries – Sun is in the Kritika
Nakshatra
• Similarly if Sun is posited in 243 degree in Zodiac, Sun is in Moola Nakshatra.
Nakshatras
• Nakshatra Ganda or Gandatha Point –
• Each rashi is overlapped or linked with Nakshatra that is extended from previous Rashi and also
next Rashi.
• However, there is no link between the Rashis through Nakshtras at 120 degree of Zodiac.

• It is happens between end point of Cancer and Beginning of Leo, end point of Scorpio and
beginning of Sagittarius and end point of Pisces and Beginning of Aries.

• These points are called Nakshatra Ganada.

• Nakshatra Ganda are sensitive points as the planets move from Jala Tatwa Rashis to Agni Tatwa
Rashis. They experience difficulty while shifting from Jala Tatwa rashis to Agnitatwa Rashis.
