Astrology is one of the six Vedangas – Vedangas are those sciences that help in

understanding and implementation of whatever is explained in the Vedas. Without Vedangas

understanding Vedas is almost impossible. Hence it is said that vidya consists of 14

components which are the four Vedas, six Vedangas and four Upangas.

Astrology or jyothisha is said to be the eyes of the purusha of Veda (assuming Veda is a

purusha). This means that the Vedas see as a result of jyothisha alone. In ancient times,

jyothisha was part and parcel of life itself – even as today we get up and read the

newspaper, similarly jyothisha was something that was always used naturally. For example

in order to perform a yajna or yaga, jyothisha was consulted in order to find the appropriate

time. Another example is that of marriage – marriage is set only after finding an appropriate

muhurtha. If muhurtha is good, then even if matching or compatibility of horoscopes of

bride and groom isn’t there or isn’t good. But gone are the days when astrology was not

only revered but used by almost all people. Today it is something that is either seen

through skeptical eyes or through eyes of testing out. People want to rebuke astrology and

therefore approach an astrologer. Needless to say such people incur sins in one or the other

way. If they are rebuking a true astrologer then they will reap the bad fruits very soon

itself.

It is the effort of this magazine to bring out the various nuances of astrology and thereby

bring to the notice of modern skeptical people of today that this science is divine and has to

be used appropriately in order to avoid problems in life. Though problems in life cannot be

fully eradicated without knowledge of Vedanta, in order to learn Vedanta problems have to

temporarily vanish or reduce – a person who has physical ailment will not be able to listen

to Vedanta, let alone implement it. If through astrology he is able to avoid physical

problems then he will be able to at least listen to Vedanta and thereby he will eventually be

able to implement Vedanta in his day-to-day life.

There are many people who take the side of astrology and who oppose it vehemently. It

might be true that after reaching a spiritual master or Guru, astrology has no meaning but

this is only valid if we have surrender unto the Guru. Without surrender, we will not be able

to progress in the spiritual path and will face problems at all levels. Therefore using

astrology in order to remove problems will ensure that we are able to focus on the Guru and

the teachings of the Guru (thus enabling us to progress in the spiritual path).

And above all, what harm does it do if we take resort to astrology even if we have

approached a master? Astrology is only going to tell us how our future can be in the current

flow of actions. If we find that we don’t want our future to be in the particular way astrology

predicts, then we can anyway perform propitiatory actions or contrary actions that will then

enable us to change the future (as to how we want it to be).

People often think wrongly that whatever astrology is the end of the matter. This s not the

case. If it we so, then there is no choice of freewill in life and we will all be living a life

similar to computers (programmed to behave in a way which can never be changed).

Astrology is just an indication of what is going to happen. As to whether it should happen

like that or not is upto an individual. He can decide and change his future if he puts

appropriate effort towards it.

Though a true astrologer’s words are like the words of Vedas and therefore will be true to

the word, still it isn’t the end of the matter regarding future of an individual. Most of the

time the astrologer’s word happens as such itself, still there is an option for the individual to

change. A true astrologer will not just predict the future but will also tell the way to change

the future if needed (with appropriate action).

All sadhakas who aspire to be true astrologers should remember that astrology is a science

that only predicts the future and it also provides way to change the future. The way to

change the future for a questioner also has to be provided by the true astrologer. If this

isn’t provided, then the astrologer isn’t a true astrologer and only will be deluding people

and in the process incurring sins for himself.

Astrology like the Vedas is a subtle science and therefore has to be understood properly –

else there will be total misunderstanding only that leads to sorrow in the long run. Analysis

of the horoscope has to be done thoroughly before making predictions and while making

predictions, care should be taken to provide the solution if prediction has to be changed as

well. There is nothing that is set in the world and therefore solution to all problems are

provided by astrology itself. Only a true astrologer will be able to find out all the problems

prathikoolanivaarakam mokshopakaarakam cha

and the solution to all problems and thereby will be able to help sadhakas progress in the

spiritual path (after eradication of all worldly problems – as much as possible).

Though it isn’t an easy science to master, it goes without saying that it gives immense

satisfaction to the mind when one is able to help out others facing problems in life

(irrespective of whether the problem is solved or the questioner heeds to the advice of the

astrologer). Proper sadhana, learning and prayers to Ishwara has to be done by sadhakas

aspiring to become true astrologers. Eventually such sadhakas will be able to become true

astrologers and thereby will be able to themselves attain the goal of moksha and help

others attain moksha.

May we all strive to learn and implement the science of astrology so that we are able to

progress ourselves to the ultimate goal of life of moksha and help others as well to attain

moksha.

Jyothishavidanustaana Vivaranam

Recap

Previously we saw the fourth sadhana of concentration – concentration is important in that

it will make our mind focus on astrology. As long as the mind is distracted into many

thoughts, there will not be focus. When focus is not there in worldly affairs itself, it will lead

to mostly failure and therefore sorrow. For example a student whose mind is on different

things like playing, watching tv, roaming around etc. will not have focus on studies and

therefore he will not score good marks and might not even pass in his studies.

When this is the case with worldly affairs, what to talk about scriptural studies like

astrology? Astrology is a divine science of predicting the past, the present and the future. It

is a science that one can master only after lot of effort (along with grace of the Lord).

Therefore it is important to gain concentration so that all effort is put towards astrology

alone.

Concentration as we saw is on two objects – either on Ishwara or on good or pure things.

The more one concentrates, the more calm the mind will be or the lesser the thoughts in

the mind will be. Even as a house that is free can easily be accommodate with people and

things, similarly a mind with less thoughts will be able to accommodate more thoughts with

full focus. Purity and concentration of mind are the results of concentration on Ishwara or

good things. A true astrologer is one who has focus or concentration which alone will make

him analyze the horoscope, the questioner, surroundings, planets etc. and make predictions

that are accurate so that it leads to the well being of the questioner.

Let’s now continue with the next sadhana of meditation. Though we might think of Ishwara

or good things and even gain some concentration, it becomes perfect or complete only

through the sadhana of dhyaana.

pÂmae Xyan< AiÉmtiv;ya[am!,18, païcamo dhyänam abhimataviñayäëäm|18|

18. Fifth is dhyaana on objects acceptable to oneself (appealing to oneself).

Generally we simply say that we are meditating but in fact what we are doing is

concentration only (starting to concentrate). When sit and start focusing on an object, we

are starting to concentrate. But other thoughts come and therefore we haven’t yet attained

concentration. Put in Patanjali’s words, concentration is fixing the mind on an object of

focus. The end result of concentration is that our focus is on the object alone. But then we

enter into meditation wherein our mind is full of thought of the object alone. The object nd

the object alone fills our mind. Meditation eventually leads to samaadhi or absorption.

A person who has been able to meditate at will at all times is capable of not only focusing

on one thought but able to easily shift from one thought to another at will. One moment he

might be focused on movies and another moment on novels and yet another moment on

spirituality – this versatility isn’t a sign of fluctuating mind which never has any focus and

shifts from one object to another without any futility or purpose. A mind that has gone

through meditation will be able to take a thought to its purpose or fulfillment while being

able to shift quickly as well from one object to another.

We generally consider people like Sachin Tendulkar as great because they have achieved

perfection in one field of life. But this isn’t great at all and is considered bad or weak with

respect to our ancient culture. In our culture of sanaatana dharma, a person will be

proficient in not just one thing but many things. We see Veda Vyasa being an expert in all

sciences; we find Narada enumerating all the sciences he knows in Brihadaranyaka

Upanishad; even a servant like Vidura is able to explain niti shastra as well as Vedanta.

Thus our ancient culture talks about people being proficient in many things because they

were experts in meditation. As a result of meditation they were able to not only attain

perfection in one area but in whatever area they want at will. This is one of the reason we

find masters like AMMA, Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa and many others being expert in

different fields through their missions and activities.

The effects of meditation is explained in the next sloka:

19. Fruit is concentration or focus of the mind.

Though we might think that the fruit of concentration and meditation are the same, it isn’t

the case. Concentration leads to purity and focus of mind whereas meditation leads to full

focus of mind. Concentration only leads to partial focus of mind or focus of mind on one

object but when one has gone through the step of dhyaana, the mind will have full focus on

whatever it focuses on. Moreover focus will be attained very quickly or in short period of

time itself.

We can also say that the previous sadhana of concentration is mere thinking of the Lord or

good thoughts in order to purify our mind and make it enter into area of focus whereas

dyaana is full fledged sadhana to gain total concentration on anything (former is based on

bhakti whereas latter is based on yoga).

An astrologer needs a focused mind that remembers all that has been learned, is able to

invoke intuition through grace of the Lord, is able to analyze surroundings and finally is able

to use proper thought-out words to the questioner. All these are only possible if there is full

focus of the mind and this is attained through dhyaana alone. Then alone his predictions will

be fruitful and will set the stage for a smooth life for the questioner (thereby helping him in

attaining moksha eventually).

May we all strive to perform the sadhana of dhyaana so that we are able to become true

astrologers and thereby are able to help others attain the goal of moksha eventually.

Bhavartha Ratnakara - VI

We have now come to the 7th chapter of the text Bhavartha ratnakara by B.V Raman, which

deals with longevity and health.

Health and longevity

1. If the lagna lord is associated with Jupiter, good longevity is indicated. Jupiter is

the karaka for fortune, children and body.

Chart 1

Analysis:

Lagna lord is Jupiter alone. Lagna lord in lagna as well as Jupiter being in lagna, will bestow

the native with long life. Saturn which is the karaka for longevity is also exalted in the 11th

house. Thus the native will posses long span of life.

2. Saturn in association with the 8th lord also confers long life. Saturn’s placement

in the 8th is also good for longevity.

10

Chart 2

Analysis:

Jupiter is the 8th lord in this chart. Jupiter is with Saturn, the karaka for longevity and is

situated in 5th house, which is good.

From moon as well Saturn is well placed in Kendra. 8th lord moon also is in Kendra.

Thus these factors confer long life to the native.

3. The 8th lord in the lagna, along with Ketu, indicates short life.

4. Sun combined with the lord of 9th makes the father long-lived, provided they’re

not together in 9th. However, Sun’s placement in the 9th shortens the father’s life,

as does Moon in 4th for the mother’s longevity.

5. If the 9th lord is in 11th, long life to the father is indicated.

6. Moon, when associated with the 4th lord, indicates a long life to the mother.

7. If either Mars or Jupiter is in 3rd, harm will be caused to the native’s brothers.

Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya (Jaya)

prathikoolanivaarakam mokshopakaarakam cha

11

Chart 3

Analysis:

Mars and Jupiter both are located in the 3rd house from lagna. The native's brother's are

not well off and have problems in life. As Jupiter is a benefic, so the damage is not that

much. Also as Jupiter is the lagna lord the effects of it is not much.

8. If the 3rd is owned and occupied by Jupiter, the person will only have one

Brother.

9. Jupiter in 5th and Venus in 7th lessen the longevity of children and spouse

respectively.

In chart 2 we see that Jupiter is in the 5th house in lagna. Venus is not in the 7th house

though in the natives chart. The native is not married and has no children as well.

10. Long life to the native’s mother is surely to be predicted if Moon conjoins the

4th lord in 5th, 9th or 10th.

11. If the 4th lord is in 4th and it happens to be its moolatrikona, the mother will live

Long.

12. The mother’s longevity will be curtailed by Saturn’s aspect on both the 4th lord

and waning Moon.

Chart 4

Analysis:

Saturn is situated in the 10th house and aspects the 4th house, which signifies mother.

Saturn is also with the karaka for mother which is moon. Moon is weak and is with

associated with evil planet Saturn. All these factors show that the life of mother may not be

long.

Maasaphalam – Kanya of Jaya varsha

We are starting this article from this month, titled Maasaphalam which as the title explains

will provide a brief overview of how the month (s) is going to be and general predictions for

the month.

Currently we are going through the month of Kanya and almost reaching the end of this

month. Thula is the next month. Month as per astrology is based on the position of Sun.

Currently Sun in Kanya and hence it is Kanya month (generally Sun moves on the 15th of

engilsh month – on average from 15 Sep to 15 Oct, Sun is in the house of Kanya).

Kanya or virgo is the house owned or ruled by Mercury. It denotes a virgin and therefore

the characteristics of this house are fluctuations or vibrations, smartness, intelligence,

shrewdness etc. Sun in this house will therefore also provide similar effects though influence

of other planets is also important to give general predictions.

The planetary positions for this month of Kanya are thus:

Jupiter – Cancer

Saturn – Thula

Rahu – Virgo

Ketu – Pisces

Sun – Virgo (moves to Libra on 18th)

Venus – in Virgo and moves to Libra on 19th (approx)

Mercury – moved to Libra but is retrograde and will move back to Virgo on 16th (moves to

Libra after 16 days)

Mars – in Scorpio (and moves on 18th to Sagittarius)

General predictions

Mars has moved from association with Saturn and therefore efforts with respect to natural

calamities and other issues like rape etc. will reduce a bit. Though we do see a lot of effects

of Hurricanes or Typhoons which is expected considering that Mars is in the house of scorpio

and those countries with Lagna as Aries will be affected most as Mars will be in the eighth

house.

prathikoolanivaarakam mokshopakaarakam cha

14

In November Saturn will be moving to Scorpio which is called keeta sthaana and then we

can expect a lot of issues. Saturn generally starts giving effect of the next house in the last

few months before its transition itself. Therefore we are seeing a lot of issues even now like

typhoons, political issues etc. (as Saturn is still in proximity with Mars).

For India, Mars is in the 7th house (lagna being Taurus for India’s horoscope). Therefore

aggressive actions can be expected (which is exactly what Narendra Modi is doing today).

But lot of issues, conflicts within parties and outside parties and with respect to neighbors

and other countries can also be expected (as they are happening as well). Saturn being the

9th-10th lord or yoga karaka in the 6th house from Taurus could be the reason that there was

lot of instability, confusions, economic issues etc. in India. Things can be said to improve a

bit after Saturn moves to Scorpio. Since yoga karaka would be in a Kendra, therefore it

would be time of prosperity for India for the next 2.5 years.

Considering that Sun is in the fifth along with Venus (for India’s lagna of Taurus), bold

actions along with passion can be expected. We can say that Modi’s swacch bharat

movement happened in this month only.

Kanya month is a bad month for Aries, Taurus, Cancer and Pisces people in particular

(owing to planets in bad houses of 6, 8 and 12).

PS: These are general predictions alone and hence shouldn’t be taken for specific people as

such – instead in depth analysis of a horoscope has been to be done before giving

predictions. We will have a deeper analysis of the month of Thula in the next magazine.

Nakshatras - VIII

We have learnt the stars till 21 i.e uttaradam. Let's continue with the 22nd star in the order

which is Sravanam or thiruvonam.

Sravanam/ Thiruvonam

This star is highly esteemed as gods were born in it. In kerala people celebrate onam

festival in the month of August in this star.

Moon is the ruler of this star and the anujanma stars for this are Rohini and hasta. They

have secrets in mind which are set up due to over imaginations.

Imagination, more sacrificial, self destructive in nature and adamant are common among all

these stars. They go extremes, but are able to come out of shocks. Rohini natives show

more of these qualities than hasta and sravanam natives show even lesser of these traits.

Hasta people are more intellectual, want more money and more power.

Sravanam natives suffer defeat at the hands of people around. They will have lot of material

to enjoy in life. They will create small groups, can’t rise above it, they will have small

power. They always will engage themselves in imaginations. They own livelihood in small

groups.

People born in this star would like to adorn themselves with ornaments, scents, cosmetics

and flowers. Usually they will be obese and appreciate other women more than their own

wives. But they will be lucky people with large-heartedness. They will help to their relatives.

Good talkers and comfort loving will they be. They like travel too.

All four padas of sravanam fall in Makara. The rulers of these padas are mars, venus,

mercury and moon. Ruler of the star is moon, the house lord is saturn. For all the padas

moon and Saturn should be considered apart from the pada lords.

1st Pada: Ruler is mars. The three planets to be considered are moon, Saturn and mars.

They are very fickle minded and moody. They have their own way. Aggressive and take

Page 16: Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya_Jaya - Vedanta Tattvavedantatattva.org/.../Jaya/Kanya/JyothishaPrakaasham_KanyaJaya.pdf · Hence it is said that vidya consists of 14 ... Sri Ramakrishna

Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya (Jaya)

prathikoolanivaarakam mokshopakaarakam cha

16

wrong decisions. Mind is afflicted with negativities. Problems of mind are indicated but they

will manage themselves well. Native will be childless and suffer from stomach trouble.

2nd pada – Venus is the lord. Native will be comfort loving and lascivious by nature. He will

have many servants and with kindness will elicit work from them. He will talk very cleverly.

They try to escape. They work in fields where imagination is needed. Better than the first

pada.

3rd pada – Mercury is the lord. The native will be wise and learned. He will be a painter. He

will have a generous nature but will love conflicts and quarrels. With sharp wits, he is good

in trading, especially cattle. He is charitable too. They will go behind spiritual people. It is

better than the above two padas.

4th pada – Moon is the lord. The native will be very rich, very loving towards his wife,

devoted to mother and emotional and sentimental by nature. They will face mental upsets

in life. Create unwanted problems. They are over imaginative.

This star is auspicious for naming, seemantam, upanayanam and marriage ceremonies. It

is good for food distribution, for commencing vedic studies and for purchasing new clothes

and ornaments. This star is favourable for the crowning ceremony, for proceeding to one’s

village, or settling down in town and to commence vratas. It is excellent for doing yagnas,

saanti or propitiatory ceremonies, navagrahaa puja, for repetition of mantras, for sowing

and other agricultural activities and for taking medicine.

If a girl attains puberty in this star, they will live happily begetting a good son. No saanti is

needed.

If fever comes, it will last for 11 days only. Propitiatory ceremony for Vishnu is suggested

for cure.

The letters signifying each pada respectively are “Jee”, “Jo”, ”Jay” and “ka”.

They may be fear from disease in the 2nd year of the native. Fear from cobra in the 3rd year,

from fire in the 5th yr, from weapons in the 7thyr and danger to life from fever in the

Page 17: Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya_Jaya - Vedanta Tattvavedantatattva.org/.../Jaya/Kanya/JyothishaPrakaasham_KanyaJaya.pdf · Hence it is said that vidya consists of 14 ... Sri Ramakrishna

Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya (Jaya)

13th yr. The native will suffer from great illness in his 15th yr and danger to his life in his

30th yr. If the native escapes these dangers he will live long for 90 years.

This can be seen like an arrow consisting of three stars in the month of September after

9:30p.m.

Thiruvonam is a star that is ruled by the planet of moon. Therefore like Rohini and Hasta,

people born in this star are imaginative, creative and with lots of ideas. But rohini people

lack a bit of self-confidence, hasta people are a bit dull (or not that much socializing) but

thiruvonam people are the most socializing. They mingle very well with people and are

easy-to-go people. They generally don't take anything that seriously. Therefore they are

easy to mingle or go along with but still they will have their own gang of people.

Since rasi if makara therefore they are in a way discipline oriented and can get interest or

disinterest in whatever they have focus on. This also means that they will have their

preferences which they will not go against.

In a way a peculiar star but very easy to find out people born in this star due to their

socializing yet specific or preference-filled nature.

Dhanishta/ Avittam

As the name suggests, it’s said that the native of this star will turn whatever he/she touches

General Characteristics

They have dull intellect and study less. They are clever and won’t talk much. They will

create problems for others. They have negative intellect which is dangerous. Others will

have to help the natives to get out of the problems. They talk in vain and show off. They will

obstinate nature.

The four padas of dhanista ruled by sun, mer,venus and mars.

Two padas of this star are in makara and two padas in kumbha. Both these houses are ruled

by Saturn alone. So the planets to be considered are Saturn as the ruler of the house and

mars as the ruler of the star. Apart from this we should consider the padas lords. Here mars

and Saturn are enemies. Whenever such combination comes, the natives of the star will

either suffer or make others suffer. This is more tamo guna dominant group and lesser

amount of rajo guna can be seen.

1st pada : Ruler is sun. They create problems for others. They talk in an indulging way. They

land in trouble and land others also in trouble. They have knack of escaping from situations

so they can manage themselves. Natives of this star are likely to have an obese body.

2nd pada: Mercury is the ruler. They are more clever, dangerous. They are tricky and trap

others easily through words and also by being smart.

3rd pada: Venus is ruler. They are better than above two padas. They can tell lies and can

change sides. They can change stands about others also easily. They will be tactful and

sensible. They will be fearless and also capable of helping others to overcome fear.

19

4th pada: Mars is the lord. They will be cruel, harsh , fat and drunkards. They will do low

level jobs. Belong to more tamo guna dominant group. They are foolish and create problems

and run away.

It is good for ploughing, sowing and planting in the fields. Also good for irrigation and

construction works. According to narada it is good for afforestation.

Good for travel in all directions. If fever comes in this star, it will take a fortnight for cure. It

is suggested that some saanti has to be done for the vasus for quicker cure.

The letters signifying the padas respectively are “su”, ”ku”, ki“and “ke”.

Mars dasa lasting 7 years pertains to this star. The native is likely to get illness in the 5th,

18th and 28th years. There is danger to his life in his 25th yr.

There is fear from cobra in the 40th yr. Danger by drowning in the 50th yr. If saanthi done in

his 60th yr he will live till his 80th yr.

The star sravanam is a deadly enemy to this star.

This star rises in the month of September and is seen at 11p.m in the sky.

Dhanishta or avittam people are generally clever but dull in intellect. But very good in

interactions, they generally go well with everybody. But they can create problems for others

who are associated with them (as a result of their lack of proper intellect). Sometimes we

can also find that they will start blaming others for mistakes or mishaps happening.

Mercury being the planet ruling this star, such people are very good in interactions,

diplomatic in nature, intelligent but not very intellectual (a bit dull on the intellect). They are

sharp in whatever their focus is and therefore they will succeed in their field of attraction or

attention.

maturing in this star will live happily with wealth and progeny.

The letters “ko”, “sa”,”see”,”su” correspond respectively with the four padas of the star. One

This star can be seen as a cluster in the shape of a camel in the month of October after

11p.m.

This star of chathayam is a bit special star. It is ruled by the planet Rahu. Rahu is supposed

to show diplomacy and we can see this in the nature of chathayam people. They are highly

diplomatic and therefore cannot be fully trusted (of course we have to look at all other

factors in the horoscope too for the same). They are generally slow working (slowly picking

up things - even if it is walking or eating, they generally do it very slowly). A good appetite

for food and they also like tasty food (have a taste for food). Tough to predict as to how

they will behave or react, one should be careful while interacting with them. Though they

are helpful most of the times, they are not really helpful to others.

They are smart, bold, cunning - hence well suited for worldly jobs. But they are generally

not suited for spirituality due to their unique characteristics (where they tilt to being worldly

rather than spiritual). Lastly they generally live a very long life.

Thiruvonam, Avittam and chadayam are 22, 23 and 24th stars in order. We shall see the last

three stars in the 27 stars series in the next edition of the magazine.

Muhurtha – Electional Astrology - VI

The planets and the relation with the stars or constellations forms the basis of the entire

predictive astrology and of muhurtha. The significance and the effects of the constellations

in muhurtha play a key role. Each star has its say in auspicious and inauspicious indications.

The movements of the planets are also measured against or in the background of

constellations; hence special place is given to constellations in setting a muhurtha.

Rohini, Uttara, Uttarashada and Uttarabhadra are fixed constellations and they are

favourable for coronations, laying foundations of cities, sowing operations, planting trees

and other permanent things.

Chitta, anuradha, mrigasira, revati are soft constellations. They are good for wearing new

apparel, learning dancing, music and fine arts, sexual union and performance of auspicious

ceremonies.

Aswini, pushya, hasta and abhijit are light constellations and they can be selected for

putting ornament, pleasures and sports, administering medicines, starting industries and

undertaking travels.

Moola, Jyestha, aridra and aslesha are sharp in nature and they are favourable for

incantations, invoking spirits, for imprisonment, murders and separation of friends.

Sravana, dhanistha, satabhisha, punarvasu and swati are movable stars and they are

auspicious for acquiring vehicles, for gardening and for going on procession.

Pubba, poorvashada and poorvabhadhra, bharani and makha are dreadful stars and they

are suitable for nefarious schemes, poisoning, deceit, imprisonment, setting fire and other

evil deeds.

Krittika and visakha are mixed constellations and during their influence work of day to day

importance can be undertaken.

Beginning of third quarter of dhanista and ending with last part of revati, the time is held to

be suitable for any kind of auspicious work. This comes under the special name of nakshatra

panchaka. On should avoid travelling south during this time, house repairing or renovation,

collecting fuel and cattle fodder or acquiring cots and beds.

Out of the 28 constellations, pushya the 8th star has a special significance. It neutralizes all

doshas arising out of number of adverse combinations.

Page 24: Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya_Jaya - Vedanta Tattvavedantatattva.org/.../Jaya/Kanya/JyothishaPrakaasham_KanyaJaya.pdf · Hence it is said that vidya consists of 14 ... Sri Ramakrishna

Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya (Jaya)

Vetti yah vedaangam sa aapnothi paramam padam

prathikoolanivaarakam mokshopakaarakam cha

24

It’s said that if there are unfavourable combinations in a birth chart and the birth star of the

person is also not favourable, then all the evils will be neutralized by star pushya. It is

capable of removing all evils from an election chart.

But inspite of its benefic nature to neutralize the evils, it is not considered auspicious for

purposes of marriage.

Bad and good are two sides of a coin. We cannot eliminate bad from the world. So to choose

a muhurtha which has no bad factors is very very rare. The probability of all factors we

consider for choosing a muhurtha, to be perfect and completely good is very very rare. Also

the urgency of doing the action which cannot wait for proper muhurtha has to be adressed.

So the astrologer has to pick up a date when the good overweighs the bad effects.

There are 21 evils we need to consider which should be avoided as inauspicious for any

work. Let’s see in brief

1. Panchanga suddhi: As we have seen before, panchanga means tithi, vara, nakshatra,

yoga and karana. All these should be auspicious. With respect to tithi 4th, 6th, 8th,

12th, 14th and full and new moon days should be avoided. With respect to vara,

Thursday and Friday are held auspicious for all works. Tuesday is to be avoided for

all works, except when it’s the 10th, 12th or 16th day of the child’s birth when the

child’s namakarana may be performed. With respect to stars bharani and krittika

should be avoided for all auspicious works. As they are ruled by yama and agni

respectively. In urgent cases of the lagna is fortified then the evil of the nakshatra

can get neutralized. The last parts of Alesha, Jyesta and revati should be avoided.

Coming to yoga 6th atiganda, 9th soola, 10th ganda, 17th vyatipata and 27th vydhruti

should be avoided. With respect karana, one should choose appropriate karana

based on the work to be done. Bava is auspicious for starting permanent works,

thaithula is propitious for marriage. Bhadra is unfit for any good work, but good for

violent and cruel deeds. For getting into initiation into kshudra mantras sakuni

karana is propitious.

Therefore, panchanga suddhi means selection of a good day, a good weekday, a good

nakshatra, a good yoga and karana.

25

2. Surya Sankarana: This happens due to the sun moving from one zodiacal sign to

another. When sun is about to leave one sign and enter another sign, that time is

not auspicious for any work as there will be some disturbances in solar forces. But

such time is said to be good for initiation into mantras, for meditation and for

performing religious rites, which will help to purify the atmosphere and also our

mental currents. Sun takes 16 ghatis i.e 6hrs 24 mins for exiting and entering into

another sign. This time should be rejected for any works.

3. Karthari Dosa: The word karthari means scissors. If there are evil planets on either

side of lagna, then it’s called karthari dosa. It causes bad effects and hence such

combination should be avoided, for good works.

4. Shashtashta Riphagatha Chandra Dosha: When the moon is located in the 6th, 8th or

12th houses from the lagna rising in an election chart, this dosa happens. This has to

be avoided in all works.

5. Sagraha Chandra Dosha: The moon’s association with any other planet, benefic or

malefic, should be avoided. This injunction is specially avoided in case of marriages.

6. Udayasta Suddhi: The lagna and the seventh should be strong. The lagna should be

occupied by its own lord and the navamsa lagna by its own lord or the lagna lord

should aspect the navamsa lagna lord. The lagna lord and seventh lord should be

well disposed and should be in good strength, especially for marriage.

7. Durmuhurtha: There are 30 muhurtas in a day which spans for 24 hrs. Each muhurta

has 2 ghatis i.e 48 mins. There are 15 diurnal muhurthas and 15 nocturnal

muhurthas. The 1st, 2nd, 4th 10th, 11th, 12th and 15th are inauspicious while in

nocturnal muhurthas 1st, 2nd, 6th and 7th are inauspicious. Here the day and night

duration is taken as equal.

Sunday coinciding with the 14th lunar day called (Aryama), Monday the 8th (vidhi) and 12th

(naktanchara), Tuesday the 4th (pitru) and the 11th (vahni), Wednesday(Abhijit), Thursday

the 12th (naktanchara) and 13th (Varuna), Friday the 4th (Pitru) and the 8th (Vidhi) and

Saturday and 1st Rudra and the 2nd (Ahi) Should be avoided as inauspicious.

Navamsa Analysis - III

To determine the Raja Yogas present in a birth chart, Navamsa chart should also be

considered for the purpose. In this edition let’s see how navamsa influences the raja yogas

in a chart.

As mentioned in saravalivol 2 chapter 35

Sloka 6: If at the birth time, the ascendant or the moon is in vargottama and aspected by 5

planets other than the moon, one will become a king inspite of taking birth in a mean

family.

Chart 1: Aurangazeb

The ascendant is in vargottama and we see that lagna is aspected by three planets. Saturn

and mars aspect lagna and Jupiter is in lagna. This is the chart of aurangazeb the king of

Mughal empire.

Page 28: Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya_Jaya - Vedanta Tattvavedantatattva.org/.../Jaya/Kanya/JyothishaPrakaasham_KanyaJaya.pdf · Hence it is said that vidya consists of 14 ... Sri Ramakrishna

Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya (Jaya)

Vetti yah vedaangam sa aapnothi paramam padam

prathikoolanivaarakam mokshopakaarakam cha

28

Sloka 28: If the native has three to four benefics in vargottamamsa, then the person will

become a king. These planets should be in angle, not be weak and have no malefic aspects.

Chart 2: Emperor Nero

Analysis: This is the chart of an emperor. As we see Saturn, mars and sun are in

vargottamamsa. Though the planets are not fully benefics for this chart, it does give the

yoga of becoming an emperor.

In chart 1 also we see that there are planets in vargottamamsa, which lead to the person to

rule kingdoms.

Sloka 43: If all the planets at the time of birth be in their own rasis and friendly navamsas,

the subject will become a king.

Page 29: Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya_Jaya - Vedanta Tattvavedantatattva.org/.../Jaya/Kanya/JyothishaPrakaasham_KanyaJaya.pdf · Hence it is said that vidya consists of 14 ... Sri Ramakrishna

Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya (Jaya)

Vetti yah vedaangam sa aapnothi paramam padam

prathikoolanivaarakam mokshopakaarakam cha

29

Sloka 49: If six planets simultaneously occupy their exaltation signs and also their own

navamsas, the native will become an emperor comparable to yayati, sagara and vena.

Chart 3: Swami Vidyaranya

Analysis: There are two planets which are exalted i.e sun and venus. Jupiter and moon are

in their own houses. Sun is in its own navamsa.

Thus we see that the horoscope satisfies most of the conditions. Swami vidyaranya was a

great scholar, was a ruler as well as a sanyaasi.

Sloka 56: If the moon occupy the leonavamsa and all other benefic planets are devoid of

malefic aspects and are angular to the lagna, the native will become a ruler endowed with

elephants.

Page 30: Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya_Jaya - Vedanta Tattvavedantatattva.org/.../Jaya/Kanya/JyothishaPrakaasham_KanyaJaya.pdf · Hence it is said that vidya consists of 14 ... Sri Ramakrishna

Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya (Jaya)

30

Sloka 59: If the moon occupies vargottamanavamsa or is in cancer navamsa and is

aspected by a strong planet, while the ascending sign is free from all malefic occupations,

the native will become an emperor endowed with physical strength.

Sloka 74: one, two or three planets of mercury, Jupiter, venus and moon occupying the 9th

house with strength and in aspect to friendly planet, the native will be a king akin to god.

Chart 4: AMMA

Analysis:We see that moon is in the 9th house. Jupiter also aspects moon. This is the chart

of RamanaMaharshi who is known all over the world as a realized soul. All his sishyas

worship him as god himself.

31

Sloka 164: If mars is in ashwini, anuradha or dhanista a raja yoga is formed. The planets

should also be in the vargottamanavamsa or in exaltation rasi.

Chapter 39

Sloka 3: The rajayogas in a horoscope are only namesake if the moon is weak and and is in

the last navamsa of a movable sign or in the 8thnavamsa of a fixed sign or in the

1stnavamsa of a fixed sign.

Chapter 40

Sloka 17: If the ascendant lord of navamsa is strong then the years contributed will equal

the navamsa past. If however the lagna lord is stronger, then the rasis past up to

lagna(counted from aries) will be number of years.

Chapter 45

Sloka22: If a planet is in its exaltation navamsa, the good effects of the planet will be full. If

it’s in its own navamsa, it will give results equal to its placement in rasi. If it’s in debilitation

or in enemy house then the effects will be quite little. If it’s in the house of a friend, then

moderate results will come to pass.

32

Chapter 46

Sloka 14: When venus and Saturn are in mutual aspect in the case of birth in Taurus or

libra ascendant with Saturn navamsa, the female concerned burnt with sexual desire will

unite with another woman playing the role of a male. Venus and Saturn should

simultaneously be in exchange in navamsas owned by them.

Sloka 20: If the 7th house falls in the navamsa of mars and be in aspect to the moon, the

female will have a diseased vagina. A navamsa of venus denotes a fortunate female who

will be dear to her husband.

Sloka 27: If the malefics are in 8th house, it indicates widowhood. This will occur in the dasa

period of the lord of the navamsa occupied by the 8th lord. A benefic in the 2nd will however

cause the death of a female in this yoga, instead of widowhood.

Chapter 51, Sloka 20 to 28

Meaning: Following are the effects of the nine navamsas of Gemini ascendant.

First navamsa: The native will have hair on the shoulders, will possess charming and dark

eyes and an elevated nose, be akin to green grass in complexion and will possess thin legs

and thin hands.

Yogas for travel We come across many people in various walks of life who are constantly travelling in their

lives due to professional and personal reasons. They hate to travel and would like to settle

at a place, but are forced to travel. We also come across people who would love to travel or

want to travel and they try all means and ways to do so and they are not being able to.

They are both long and short distance travels.

There are many yogas which indicate travel in a person’s life. Chatursagara yoga is one the

prime yogas which helps one to travel far and wide. Planets occupying the kendras make

ones a wanderer. Such people can be considered as globe trotters or wanderers.

Apart from this if the lagna lord is in chara and is aspected by a planet in chara also the

person will be settling down abroad. There are two other yogas which cause a person to

travel a lot called Sakata yoga and sadaasanchara yoga.

Sadaasanchara yoga is formed when the lagna lordor lagna must be in a movable sign. The

native will almost always be a wanderer. This is common in horoscopes of travelling agents,

diplomats and globe trotters. If both lagna and the navamsalagna are in movable signs, the

subject would hardly confine himself to any particular place, he will always be moving

around.

Sakata yoga is formed by Jupiter and moon. When moon is placed in 6th, 8th or 12th

positions from Jupiter in a natives chart it gives rise to the yoga. Jupiter stands for

prosperity, finances and fortune. Moon stands for mind, happiness and travels. Moon in

dusthanas from Jupiter leads to obstructions, hurdles and hardships in life. People having

this yoga are said to suffer poverty and are stubborn and be less fortunate.

We shall see few examples of these yogas. Let’s begin with sadasanchara yoga with some

examples.

Chart 1

Analysis: The lagna lord is venus in the above chart and is in mesha, which is a movable

sign. Lagna lord is also in the 12th house. The navamsalagna is cancer. Cancer is a movable

sign. So both the lagna lord as well as navamsalagna are in movable signs. Thus the native

has sadasanchaara yoga. Moon is not in a dusthana from Jupiter. Hence the sakata yoga is

not present in the chart.

The native has been on move and always away from home. Education was far away from

home and involved constant travel. Even job was in overseas. Even when abroad, the native

moved to various places very frequently. Native is restless in nature and cannot confine

himself to a house for a long time, but keeps wandering around. Even being at job places he

makes frequent visits home. So he has frequentlyboth short and long journeys in life.

Chart 2

Analysis:Lagna lord is Saturn and is a movable sign libra. Even the lagna is in a movable

sign. The navamsalagna is Taurus and is not a movable sign. Thus the sadasanchara yoga is

applicable. This is the chart of Jiddu Krishnamurthy. The native of the chart was born in

india. He was separated from his parents at an early age. He was adopted by the

theosophical society and had to go to various places on account of it. He was educated at

various places and was sent abroad. He travelled many continents to spread the message of

theosophical society.

Thus he was a wanderer, a globe trotter as a preacher of hindu philosophy to the west. The

yoga present in the chart suits him the best, for the way of life he lead. He had long

journeys, taking him far away from the place of residence.

Chart 3

Analysis: Lagna is libra which is a movable sign in the above chart. The lagna lord venus is

also in libra in a movable sign. The navamsalagna for this chart is aries, which is also a

movable sign. Thus the native of this chart has sadasanchara yoga.

Native of this yoga, has constant long and short distance travels. Native has frequent

travels. In many ways the lagna, lagna lord and navamsalagna are all in movable sign,

making it impossible for the native to stay at one place for long. Native is a globe trotter

and wanderer. Both for personal and professional reasons the native travels a lot. Thus this

yoga is well suited for this chart.

Till now we have seen few examples of sadasanchaara yoga. Now we shall see few more

examples for sakata yoga.

Chart 4

Analysis: The above chart is of AMMA. We see that from Jupiter the moon is in the 12th

house, which is a dusthana. Thus sakata yoga is available in the chart.

AMMA lived in a small hut on the coast of Arabian sea. AMMA was born in a fisherman’s

family. Thus we see that life was full of difficulties from childhood. AMMA’s mother

damayanthiamma, could not understand the higher spiritual states of AMMA and would beat

her and scold AMMA everyday. Thus AMMA went through a tough childhood, where no one

understood AMMA. Though AMMA faced all troubles from people around, AMMA was

stubborn and do what was right. For this also AMMA received beating from

damayanthiamma. AMMA didn’t have any funds or money to start ashram. AMMA didn’t

even land etc for the same. Everything started in a hut given by AMMA’s father sugunachan.

Now as well AMMA doesn’t claim any money of the trust and leads a simple life. AMMA faces

many challenges from devotees and disciples of AMMA constantly. With lot of allegations

also made against AMMA, AMMA bravely stands against all odds in every phase of life. Thus

we see all the effects of sakata yoga in this chart.

People with sakata yoga, also are said to travel a lot. AMMA travels far and wide. For whole

year AMMA travels to US twice and Europe once. AMMA travels to Australia, Singapore and

tours all over India. All these travels are due to sakata yoga as well.

Chart 5

Analysis: Native of this chart is my younger brother who works in US now. He was away

from home for most part of his life. His studies in india and abroad has always kept him

away from home. As part of his professional life as well he stays away from the family.

He would travel from childhood, for his studies and entrances and coaching etc. He is a

person who also likes to travel places. Moon is in the 12th from Jupiter and it forms sakata

yoga. He struggled a lot in US, with respect to financial matters. Sudden set backs in life he

had faced. While studying in US, getting a scholarship was a tedious task and he would

struggle to make ends meet by studying and earning there. With respect to job as well he

faced lot of misfortunes though he is very capable. He was unlucky in many situations. He

always had good inflow and outflow with respect to finances. Now also life is a struggle for

him in US, with respect to job and finances.

Thus we see the sakata yoga working all fine in this horoscope.

Chart 6

Analysis:In the above chart we see that moon is in the 8th house from Jupiter. Thus moon

is located in a dusthana from Jupiter and forms sakata yoga for this chart.

The native of this chart has gone through lot of hardships in life and faced many challenges.

Life threatening scenarios also the native had to go through, due to this yoga. Frequent

travels are also seen in the native’s life.

Chart 7

Analysis:This is chart of Osho. He faced lot of obstacles from his disciples. He was in midst

of lot of controversies. He had to face ban of some countries as well. People around him

posed as an obstacle to him. They caused lot of trouble and brought him disgrace. He got

bad name due to all his followers. Twenty one countries denied him entry causing him to

travel a lot as well.

As we see from Jupiter moon is located in the 6th house, this lead to sakata yoga. So there

were times when he faced lot of oppositions from people around. He travelled all around the

world and established many centers. He gave his talks by visiting many countries and

continents. Thus sakata yoga also gave him lot of travel as a preacher and philosopher.

Thus we see that sakata yoga and sadasanchara yoga has one feature in common, which is

that people having these yogas will travel a lot, with and without purpose.

Chart

Analysis: There are many yogas in this chart. Ati-manusha yoga which is formed by Jupiter

and venus being opposite to each other can be seen in the chart. The four kendras are filled

with benefics. This leads to chatursagara yoga.Amala yoga from lagna and moon also

contributed.

Lagna lord and 10th lord Jupiter forms ati-manusha yoga with 6th lord and 11th lord venus.

So he became a very special individual. He was known as a child prodigy who left all

impressed with his talents. He raised high in his profession as well. He was known to bring a

new instrument into Carnatic music world. He brought the instrument back into limelight.

He was known for his talent at a very young age. As venus is involved in the yoga and it is

exalted in the 4th house aspecting the 10th house. Hence he became famous in music world.

Venus also stands for the partner, So even his family life was full with rough edges and

bitter experiences in an extraordinary way.

Lagna is aspected by Saturn, lagna lord also aspected by Saturn and rahu hence he was

dark in complexion. Venus exalted aspecting the lagna lord, made him handsome. Saturn is

the 2nd lord and is with venus. Also Jupiter aspects the 2nd house. He has big lotus eyes as a

result of these effects. As exalted venus aspects the lagna lord Jupiter, the native is soft

natured and well mannered. He is said to be a good human being, who was humble and had

respect to his elders. As atimanusha yoga forms in the 4th house, so his residence, comforts

were all good. Even his elder brother Rajesh learnt Carnatic music as well the instrument

mandolin.

3rd house is the house of arts. From lagna 3rd lord Saturn is in Kendra with venus, the god of

arts. This indicates good talents in field of arts. The 3rd lord is aspected by Jupiter and

associated with venus and rahu. The 3rd house is aspected by mars and sun is in the 3rd

house. Due to mars, sun apsects on 3rd house, the person took to instruments. As rahu is

associated with 3rd lord, the instrument was of western origin. From moon as well the 3rd

house is aspected by 3rd lord sun. All these factors made him take up an instrument, rather

than being a vocalist. Due to influence of Saturn and rahu over venus, he worked for fusion

music as well.

9th lord from lagna is sun and is aspecting the 9th house. This gives rise to manavasrestha

yoga. Hence the native was loved and respected by all and held in high esteem.

Chatursagara yoga formed by benefics, moon, venus and Jupiter occupying 3 kendras, lead

him to travelling far and wide and doing world tours, to perform concerts at various places.

In mercury main dasha and Saturn sub dasai.e in 2012, he got divorced. Mercury is the 7th

lord from lagna. Mercury is in its enemies house, I.esaturn’s house. Mercury has papakartari

yoga. Mercury is flocked by malefics sun and mandi on either side. Venus is also afflicted

due to association with malefics likes Saturn and rahu. From moon the 7th lord is Jupiter and

is afflicted by ketu and aspected by Saturn. Mandi is in the 7th house as well. These factors

are not good as well. As mercury is the 7th lord and Saturn is the enemy of mercury so

divorce happened during that period.

Venus is with malefics Saturn and rahu and is afflicted. 7th house has 8th lord in it. 7thlord is

in 2nd house.This is not good for the natives’ relationships. As venus is exalted he got into

marriage. But venus afflicted with Saturn and rahu, has created problems in his family

life.Mars aspects the 7th house.This creates conflicts with partner.Venus is also the 6th lord.

So partner will be like an enemy to the native. The 3rd lord Saturn, which is malefic is with

6th lord venus, due to which there were troubles in the married life.

Saturn and mars aspect the 6th house from lagna, which is the cause of the liver problem.

6th lord venus is with malefics Saturn and rahu. 6th house is aspected by Saturn and mars.

Jupiter also aspects 6th house. 6th house stands for stomach region. Jupiter also deals with

stomach portion and kidneys. Venus stands for female organs or fleshy organs. Thus he had

problem of liver failure.

Amala yoga is formed in the chart, both from lagna and moon. From lagna benefic Jupiter is

in the 10th house. From moon, benefic venus is in the 10th house with malefic Saturn. Thus

amala yoga is present to some extent. This is the reason for his name and fame from very

young age. He was recognized and received well in the world of music. He established a

special place for himself in the field of music. He had worldwide recognition and fame.

8th lord moon is in the 7th house from lagna. This means the native will die earlier than his

partner. This is what happened. Mandi in lagna also gives a short span of life. Saturn is in

Kendra with benefics, 8th lord moon is in Kendra, lagna lord Jupiter is also in Kendra. These

factors are favourable for long life, but mandi in lagna gave him a short span of life of 45

years.

It was ketu and venusdasha which gave him liver problems and ultimately took his life. Ketu

is in house of mercury and is with Jupiter. Mandi is in the house of Jupiter. So Jupiter could

have given life threatening problems. Association of ketu with Jupiter, enhances ketu to give

such effects. Venus is the 6th lord and enemy of ketu. Hence ketu and venusdasa took his

life due to health reasons.
