Shastiamsa 60th Varga
An introduction is written in the first article of the series named “Shastiamsa: Deities”
please read it by clicking on its name.
In this article, I will present something special, but let me introduce it first. In Vedic
Jyotish, those books are considered as classics which are written in Sanskrit and
presents special/precise principles of Chart Interpretation. In most of the classics,
rules/formulas are either not given at proper places [they are scattered all over the
book] or they are coded inside what is known as Yogas. To understand classics and
in a better word to understand the chart interpretation method of Sage what we need
to do is to first compile all rules relating to a specific matter at one place and then try
to understand what is written between lines [Understand Yoga’s deeply]
Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra is the ultimate reference book in Vedic Astrology, all
astrology is an expansion of its formulas only. [Leave Jaimini Astrology here] All other
branches of Astrology such as Nadi Astrology, Krishnamurthy Astrology, Tajika
System of astrology are better development of its formulas only [Mainly one formula,
like K.P. astrology is based on the formula of Vimshottari Dasha and Antardasha;
Nadi Astrology is based on the concept of aspect – especially of trines, Tajika is
based on minor relationships between planets and Shadbala mainly – this statement
may sound controversial, I will explain it in detail with sound logic in a later article].
Parashara is only a name in this matter, as per me the source of knowledge is one
Shiva, who taught this knowledge to Brahma which made him able for the act of
creation, then he taught this knowledge to Narada and other sages [Now when we
think this way, we will also accept that the source and on a larger scale techniques
are the same because knowledge comes from the same source], then this knowledge
is further developed and sometimes modified too. This modification gives us different
branches of astrology. So there must be no fight between which astrological system is
superior as all of them originated from the same source.
Parashara, because only his work is surviving till now. Works of other sages such as
Garga and Narada are lost in time, hence his name is used but the technique and the
teachings are more than just name or a person. However, because only Brihat
Parashara Hora Shastra is preserved [it is also lost partially but still we have more
than 100 chapters, which counts more than work of any other sage], we are left with
only one book to glance into the method which was originally taught to Sages, it is
also corrupted at some places but an intelligent student is like a swan, he must be
able to segregate water from milk and until and unless he/she is able to do this he has
no right to engage in intellectual things such as astrology and astrological research or
teaching to be strict [to save further degredation of the science].
In this article, I am compiling different Shlokas from Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra
which I think is meant to explain techniques of divisional chart interpretation and to
give an understanding of divisional charts, which can be applied to all divisional charts
[most of the times] and specifically to Shastiamsa [only a few places]. This is my own
understanding of text and astrology, one may differ from it [but this statement is only
for scholars – who are learned enough to think themselves as scholars, for students
simple way is to read everyone and adopt what is working for you].
I am only reproducing Shlokas relevant to our article and leaving other Shlokas which
will expand the size of the article, all these Shlokas will be taught in detail in Varga
Viveka course, for admission click here
The divisions are sixteen in number as told by Brahma who is creator [eldest]; I am
telling you that, O, Maitreya! listen to it. Kshetra [Place/Rashi], Hora [D2], Dreshkan
[D3], Chaturthansha [D4], Saptmansh [D7], Navansh [D9], Dashmansh [D10],
Suryansh [D12 – because there are twelve different forms of Sun; this is the method
by which numbers were represented in ancient Sanskrit except using coding methods
such as KaTaPaYaDi], Sodashansh [D16], Vimshansa [D20], Vedvahvansh [D24],
Bhansh [D27], Trimsamsa [D30], Khavedamsa [D40], Akshkhavedansha [D45] and
Shastiamsa [D60] which is supreme.
Planets affined with benefic Shastiamsa gives good results, planets affined with cruel
Shastiamsa destroys planets.
It is a complex Sutra, people have translated it using their own mind, but the
translation given here is literal over which I will apply my limited intellect. Try to
understand it, It is before giving calculations of Shastiamsa chart which means it is
purely related to deities of Shastiamsa [which in a broader sense means that in every
divisional chart effect of planets as Good or Bad, Auspicious or Inauspicious depends
upon deities of that divisional chart] it can be taken to mean that divisional chart
deities decide nature of planets. Now he says planet in auspicious D60 gives
auspicious results but planets in bad D60 suffers destruction. This doesn’t mean that
planet in malefic Dgivesive bad results, no. It means that planet in bad D60 is unable
to give results promised otherwise [From Rashi chart, or other divisional charts or of
D60 itself]. This is further elaborated in a special Sutra, which will be presented
shortly.
Leave Rashi of a planet, then double the [remainder], count the number thus obtained
from lord of that Rashi.
Explanation: Here it says lord of the Rashi, but traditionally it is taken from the Rashi;
Counting from lord of Rashi will give us another D60 which is not traditionally used,
Thus, I am leaving that interpretation [which is truth] and using what is traditionally
been given in all texts.
Hence it means for this planet Shastiamsa will be 10.23×2=20.42 which means it will
be in Virgo Shastiamsa. 12 Shastiamsa in one round of zodiac and then the remainder
is 8th which is Leo from Capricorn which is completed and the planet is in 9th from
Capricorn which is Virgo.
Now let me give a secret, I marked this while reading Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra
for the first time. That time I had no idea about writing an article on this and due to this
I never marked references, However, I will give one example for this deduction of
mine.
Shadvarga [D1, D2, D3, D9, D12, D30] is to be used for Dasha [These charts can be
used independently to read effects of every Bhava’s. I remember reading an article by
the editor of a magazine who wrote that an astrologer in Varanasi told him that D12
can be read like an Independent chart; many astrologers of yore like C.S.Patel and S.
Krishna Iyengar always told that D9 can be read like an independent chart, this can be
done will all charts coming under this division]. I will write an article on Sudarshan
Chakra Dasha and will demonstrate this secret which is just amazing.
Saptavarga [D1, D2, D3, D7, D9, D12, D30] is to be used for judging effects of planets
in a Bhava {Many times it is said that if most of the Vargas in a house is of this planet
then this effect rises, at such times this division is to be used; For example, it is said
when Varga’s [mind plural – Varga’s] of Jupiter falls in Lagna then one is not born of
adultery. How many divisions we are to see in this divisions, we need to see seven
divisions, these seven divisions} we always need factors in odd numbers to come at a
conclusion, because factors in even numbers will lead to a tie. This is the basic idea
of including three factors in astrology such as [Ascendant-Moon and Sun, House-
House lord and Significator], looking clearly you will notice that between Shadvarga,
Saptavarga, Dashvarga and Shodashavarga only Saptavarga [7 Divisions clubbed
together to make a group] can be used to take a decision, hence it is primarily used in
judging effects of divisions falling in a Bhava. [When I wrote this behind the edition of
BPHS which I use for my personal reference with a pencil I wrote it only after reading
a strong Shloka in its favour, now after years I am unable to remember which chapter
had that Shloka].
Dashvarga [D1, D2, D3, D7, D9, D10, D12, D16, D30, D60] is to used for judging the
effect of planets in Rashi’s/dignity [See an example; सपारिजातध्युचरः सुखानि
नीरोगतामुत् तमवर्गयातः When a planet is in Parijaat amsa it gives happiness and when a
planet is in Uttama amsa it gives freedom from diseases [no diseases in it’s Dasha],
this terminology of Parijaat and Uttama is only used in Dashavarga that’s why this
conclusion by me.
Shodashvarga [D1, D2, D3, D4, D7, D9, D10, D12, D16, D20, D24, D27, D30, D40,
D45, D60] to be used for normal reading, by normal reading I mean for application of
all principles given in texts of Jyotish. By normal reading, I also mean ‘to see
concerned divisional chart for a concerned matter – such as D9 for Marriage and D10
for Rajyoga. But this reading has its limitations [which make it different from
Shadvarga] This distinction will be clear in a while, and when you will read between
lines [even in my writings, then you will find that why in all books on astrology only
results for Shadvargas are given and not for Dashavarga, Saptavarga or
Shodashvarga].
By affinity with two divisions in Shadvarga planet goes under the name of ‘Kimshuka’
by affinity with three Varga’s it goes by name of ‘Vyanjana’ etc. Illustrated in the table

स्वोच्चमूलत्रिकोणस्वभवनाधिपतेः तथाI
स्वारूढात्केन्द्रनाथानां वर्गा ग्राह्या सुधिमताII
Planets in their exaltation, mool-trikona, own Rashi and in Rashi of planets who own
Kendra [1-4-7-10] places from their Arudha [is to be taken as the giver of Yoga results
– results promised by them], O men of clear intellect.
Explanation: Here is given a big secret, that is the use of Graha Arudha, like arudha of
a Rashi/Bhava [there is no difference between a Bhava and Rashi] there is also
Arudha of Graha, here Parashara is referring to that.
Graha Arudha: Count from planet to his Rashi, then count the same number of Rashi’s
[between Graha and his Rashi] from the Rashi of the Graha, the resulting Rashi is
Graha Arudha of the planet. In case of those planets who own two Rashi’s their
stronger Rashi needs to be taken, to know which Rashi is stronger we need to
see Strength of a Rashi, this is dealt in a separate article, which can be read here.
Example: Suppose we need to find Graha Arudha for Saturn who is in Aquarius and
Capricorn is having Mercury, Venus and Mars. We find Capricorn is stronger than
Aquarius, counting from Saturn to Capricorn we find Capricorn is in 12th to Saturn,
So, 12th from Capricorn which is Sagittarius will be Graha Arudha of Saturn, Now as
per this Shloka, In whichever divisional chart Saturn is in Rashi Gemini, Virgo,
Sagittarius and Pisces in those divisional charts Saturn is to be taken as strong and
capable of producing/giving results promised by him.
Weak may mean extremely weak in Shadbala, [unable to score required points in
Shadbala, it will be dealt with in a separate article]. Shayanadi Avastha is a complex
topic, it will be dealt in a separate topic, including it here will not be fair, it will be dealt
together with different kinds of Avastha’s of planets in a separate article.
Secret: Sage is very clear here to say that see the promise of a planet in a divisional
chart, whatever he may promise, he will only be able to give that [In his Dasha
antardasha] only when he is strong enough, if not strong enough then he won’t be
able to give his results. This is a very fine principle which is not being illustrated here
for sake of space but readers must try it, it is one of best divisional chart Dasha
principles which I can affirm readers.
Now, I am telling you which matters are known by the thought of which lagna of
sixteen divisions. Lagna [D1] is the science of Body, Hora [D2] is for resources,
Drekkana [D3] is to be seen for the growth of siblings, Turyamsha [D4] for thinking on
fortune, Navansh [D9] for thinking about wife, Dashamsa [D10] for big fruits [which
means Raajyoga], Dwadashansa [D12] for thinking about parents [appropriate word
will be lineage], Shodashansa [D16] for Happiness etc and Vehicles, Worship and
practice [of spiritual matters] is to be seen from Vimshatibhaga [D20], Knowledge from
Vedvahvansh [D24], Bhansha [D27] for strength etc, Trimsamsha [D30] for scourge,
Khavedamsa [D40] for beneficence etc, Akshkhavedamsa [D45] and Shastiamsa
[D60] is to be seen for every matter.
Secret: By the use of the word लग्नं Parashara have made it very clear that in
divisional chart analysis Lagna is to be used [which is Lagna of divisional chart
derived mathematically], with this Parashara sanctions lordship and planetary malefic
and auspicious nature in Divisional charts too. However with the use of the
Shloka लग्नं दे हस्य विज्ञानं Parashara gives another big hint, because lordship is taken
separately for all divisional charts with the help of this Shloka we come to a
conclusion [based on Shubham Alock’s own understanding] that body of any relative
is to be taken from Lagna chart/Rashi only. What do I mean by this is when we see
Navansha what we need to remember is 7th lord of Navansha is wife in her duties as
a wife and 7th lord of Rashi taken into Navansha is wife’s body [her diseases, her
physical outlook etc].
Now be a bit liberal, open your mind, put it under pressure and then think and think
and think. Then I will tell you something which is very spontaneous when you think
this way, But let me put it in form of an example.
Do you know Steve Jobs, he made fortune [money] out of his profession. His birth
details are 24 February 1955; 19:15; San Francisco-California. See his D10, 10th lord
of the profession is Saturn in Cancer sign, now look for Saturn in D2 [I am using
Pravritti-Hora which is ‘Real Hora Varga‘] he is in Taurus Sign, Taurus is what Lagna of
D10 [This gives him professional excellence], just think of 10th lord in Lagna and what
result is given by sages for this combination. Now also mind that he moves to 11th
from his Rashi in D10 which means profit [11th house indicates gain]. But the real
thing from Enemy sign [Cancer] Saturn moved to fast friend’s sign [Taurus – I am
using Panchandha Maitri based on D1 for all divisional charts]. The crux of analysis
comes from analysis of Saturn’s Sambandha [relationsips] in D2, He is aspected by
Mercury and Jupiter who are in the 11th house of gains and 9th house of fortune
respective in D2, They lord 3rd, 6th, 9th and 12th house respectively. Their lordship
indicates how he made his path and placement of aspecting planets indicate which he
got as results.
3rd house indicates his courage to start something as Apple then 6th house indicates
his struggle then 9th house indicates his fortune then 12th house indicates his
expulsion from company, then see Jupiter forms one-sided relationship with Saturn
and Mercury makes mutual relationship this indicates after his expulsion again luck
supported him [Ju – 9H] and then he made fortune [Me – 11H].
Wherever is situated a planet who is under bad Shastiansha lord, that house results
suffer loss [Mind loss and not annihiliation], there is no doubt in this as it is told by
ancient [elder peoples in astrology]. Wherever a planet is situated who’s Kalamsha
[D16] lord is auspicious that house gets growth and endorsement, this is told by
ancients. Thus ends distinction in sixteen divisions.
Secret: Here sage is very clear in mentioning that planets in bad Shastiamsa give loss
and planets in good Shastiamsa gives gains, but he adds another divisional chart
which is always ignored by many astrologers which is Shodasamsa [D16], he says
planet in under lordship of auspicious D16 deities gives growth and under malefic
deities in D16 makes the result of house where planet is situated to be limited.
In my humble opinion this is to be used with respect to the previous Secret, Just see
Saturn’s Shastiamsa deity and Kalamsa [D16] deity. In D60 Saturn is in ati-sheetala
amsa, it means very cold, we know Saturn is of the air element, we love cool breeze,
hence he is auspicious. In D16 he is under the lordship of Shiva, this can be a bad
deity but is not because Saturn is in a male sign in D16 [Gemini].
In D16 there are four deities which are Aja [Prajapati] Vishnu, Hara [Shiva] and Surya.
Because Shiva and Surya are cruel in nature [as per mythology they are auspicious in
male signs and because Prajapati/Brahma and Vishnu are docile as per mythology
they are auspicious in female signs in D16. [All male signs are cruel and female signs
are docile is a very basic principle of Vedic Jyotish which is interpreted by me here].
These four deities repeat 4 times in a Rashi to make sixteen amsha which are known
as Sodasamsa. The order of deities is reversed in female signs.
Also, mind that this Saturn in D16 is in Gemini sign which is Kendra Rashi from Graha
Arudha of his Saturn [calculated in Rashi chakra/D1], this gave Saturn the qualities of
not giving loss [In D60 Saturn is just average] and capable of giving extreme growth
[well dignified in D16 due to being in Kendra sign from Graha Arudha].
[For the time being, I am leaving Varga-Vishvabala and it’s usage along with
computation, to keep the size of article in a limit. God willing we will present it in
another article series. All these principles of divisional chart interpretation will be
taught extensively in “Varga Viveka” course to be conducted by “Shubham Alock”]
Now before revealing a special Dasha technique and an example let me give some
special rules from the chapter dealing with effects of divisional charts from Brihat
Parashara Hora Shastra, readers may note that many precious principles are
scattered in Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra for divisional chart interpretation,
compiling them all and explaining them will make a book, thus, I am limiting this article
only with few more dictums and in next article of the series few more dictums will be
presented.
Secret: This is an eye-opening Shloka, people on the authority of this Shloka quotes
that planets with Sun [Combust] finds themselves unable to give their effects
[promised as per the chart], but this principle lacks empirical evidence. Here we come
to know that this Shloka is actually mentioned in the chapter relating to effects of
Divisional charts and reading Shloka’s adjunct to this Shloka we can also conclude
that it is not an interpolation. Thus we need to keep this in mind that this Shloka is a
modification to Vimshopaka Bala and have nothing to with those planets who are
combust. [Combustion is just a criterion for weakness, as told in a Shloka reproduced
above].
This Shloka means that even if planets get complete Vimshopaka bala if he is with
Sun he ceases to give effects. Try to understand it, Vishopaka Bala is just a
mathematical assessment of planetary strength in divisional charts which is based on
their occupation of a different kind of Rashi’s in divisional charts [Exaltation, Mool-
Trikona, Debilitation etc]. It is just a numerical assessment, which in my opinion can
be and must be ignored, Jyotish is not so mathematical if it was then software must
have replaced humans till now. Vimshopaka is just a quick way to see the dignity of
planets in all divisional charts [This is its limitations which we need to understand
before building our techniques or predictions on it], In my humble opinion [which will
be illustrated in next article of the series], Vimshopaka Bala is to be considered
separately for each and every divisional chart, This rules gives an exception which
can be easily translated as if a planet be in his exaltaation [highest Vimshopaka Bala]
but be with Sun, then he has to be treated like he is in neutral Rashi and not in
exaltaation, empirically I can say that this rule works only for planets as house lords
and not in their Dasha/Antardasha.
Body, Wealth, Siblings, Kinsmen, Son, Dissolution, Virgin, Apertura, Religion, Work,
Income and Expenditure in order are the name of twelve Bhava’s, that is told by me
as I have heard from Brahma in a nutshell, understand more to it by your intellect.
Now, I am telling you something special.
Secret: By this Shloka in the chapter dealing with divisional charts, Parahara wants to
tell us that divisional charts are an expansion of a Bhava. Earlier he told us about
Lagna in Divisional charts, Lagna is not a Rashi it is a Bhava [sign rising at the
eastern horizon, this is Bhava because it is calculated based on one’s birthplace
whereas planets are calculated as per centre of the earth]. So basically divisional
charts are an expansion of a Bhava and Not of Rashi, this gives us an answer and a
further hint. The answer is to a very fundamental question that why divisional charts
are not in synchronization with Bhava chart, what do I mean this is something
complex which only scholars can understand. Suppose I am born in 13 Degree 48
Minutes of Virgo, then Navansha in my Lagna is Taurus, now second house should
precisely be 13 Degree 48 minutes of Libra [Next sign to Virgo] than finding Navansha
for this we find it falls under Aquarius navansha, but in 2nd house of my Navansha
chart is Gemini. This may seem like a corruption but here with this statement,
Parashara makes it clear that divisional charts are an expansion of Bhava’s and not of
Rashi’s hence this mathematical conclusion is illogical.
But who limits your thinking, this Shloka or this deduction of mine can also be a
misinterpretation. The above statement made by me is when I am translating this
Shloka, but myself as a research-minded astrologer thinks another way. As per me,
divisional charts are calculated in three different ways.
1. When divisional charts are calculated from the sign itself like in Dwadasamsa [D12]
and Shastiamsa [D60].
2. When counting starts from Aries in Aries and continues irrespective of any other
criteria into consideration like in Saptamsa [D7], Navansha [D9], Sodasamsa [D16]
and Vimsamsa [D20]
3. When counting starts from unknown methods such as in Vedvahvansha [D24],
Nakshatramsa [D27] etc
Incorrect divisional charts such as Hora [D2], Drekkana [D3], Trimsamsa [D30],
Dasamsa [D10] – Now mentioning them as incorrect can also be taken as
limitation/corruption of my own intellect.
In those divisional charts described under point [1], Bhava coincides with Rashi which
ends our confusion [raised in the interpretation of this Shloka] but other types don’t
satisfy my hunger. I am still working on it and I have some very potent idea’s on this
too which will be taught in detail in the course I am going to teach on Divisional
Charts.
The ninth house is to see for knowledge of father so also ninth from Sun, also 10th
and 11th house from 10th and 11th house from Sun, whatever is judged in 4th, 2nd,
11th and 9th house from Lagna is also to be seen in 4th, 2nd, 11th and 9th house
from Moon, whatever is judged in 3rd from Lagna is also to be seen in 3rd from Mars,
whatever is judged in 6th from Lagna is also to be judged in 6th from Mercury, 5th
from Jupiter is to be seen for childerns, 7th from Venus for wife, and 8th and 12th
from Saturn is to be seen for those matters which are seen in 8th and 12th from
Lagna.
Secret: This is Bhava from Karaka, Parashara here instructs that this is to be judged in
divisional charts [opposite to what people do, judge them in Rashi chart]. Karaka
means what ‘doer’. to do what? do means start of something, to earn money do some
work, to stop earning stop doing the work. So, doing here is the producer of results.
Karaka can be seen as effects on Karaka which indicates mentality of person and
concerned house from Karaka which indicates longevity [or time of marriage/childbirth
in case of Venus/Jupiter], of the concerned person. Test these things what I am writing in
my articles, without empirically observing them on horoscopes there is no benefit in reading
the article like a time-pass magazine.
Take an example [June 18, 1973; 08:30; Ludhiana], 18 Years of marriage – 12 IVF
failed then gave birth to triplets in 2016. See her D7, Jupiter is retrograde in 8th house
with Venus in Scorpio who is in an exchange with Mars, 5th from Jupiter is Rahu in
Pisces. Rahu being a demon is uncomfortable in Rashi of Jupiter, more so it is Pisces
which is bad also because of its watery nature and being the 12th sign of the zodiac
which indicates emancipation. Jupiter lord of the Rashi [in 5th from Jupiter] is in 8th
house retrograde [natural benefic retrograde in 6-8-12 and natural malefic retrograde
in 1-4-5-7-9-10 is weak], also this Jupiter is with Maandi, making him further weak.
This was the main reason behind the results, nature of Maandi matches with nature of
Scorpio which makes it more malefic and the divine light of Jupiter suffers.
Whatever is told as the effect of Bhava’s is to be told from the Bhava and also lord of
that Bhava
Secret: This is a very important Shloka, which hints that all the Dhana Yogas are told is
to be seen in Hora, Whatever Rajayoga is told is to be seen in Dashamsa, Whatever
Aristha yoga is told is to be seen in Trimsamsa chart etc. Also the same is to be
judged from the lord of the Bhava [Here lordship taken as per Rashi chart, because
lordship as per the divisional chart is already self-understood – however the
distinction between the lord of 7th house of Rashi and 7th lord of Navansha is clearly
described by me in a previous paragraph].
A very fine principle emerges from a reading of all the previous Shloka’s together,
which tells us that Karaka is to be seen for longevity/coming of someone, Bhava tells
us the condition of the matter and Bhavesha tells us about the condition of the living
matter. For example, 7th from Venus indicates marriage will be early or delayed, then
7th house will indicate how is marital life and 7th lord will indicate how his wife, if
malefic influences are on 7th house then it means that marriage circumstances are
bad due to the native, lagna [self] makes the 7th Bhava, whereas malefic influences
on 7th lord indicates there is problem in wife. Like this, you need to read between
lines, slowly to understand the real meaning of Shloka and real intention of the Sage.
Dasha: Mr Soumitra Makhal [whom I consider as an elder brother of mine], published
an article in ‘Planets and Forecasts’ magazine published from “Cuttack’ titled ‘Timing
events through Varga lords of Shastyamsa Chart’ in April, May and July 2017 issue of
the magazine.
When I read this article, I realised that this dispositor method can only be used in
those divisional charts where computation of Divisional chart starts from Rashi itself.
Because of these divisional charts, Bhava’s and Rashi’s synchronize. This is a very
fantastic technique and when this is added to those techniques described above it will
strike your attention at once.
Soumitra ji in article uses the same approach as used by me, taking lords from D60
and judging into various other divisional charts, I will explain this with a single
example and other rules [explained with translations above, is left for the readers to
explore themselves and find the butter of astrology when it is literally translated and
liberally interpretated].
Mainly we will see planet’s dispositor as per Shastiamsa and will take them into
Dwadasamsa and will try to see if it indicates at events in both charts, Dwadasamsa
because it is another chart where Bhava and Rashi synchronises.
1. He was an adopted child – There are various Yoga’s for this, I am not giving it here
because this rule can be easily misused if it falls under hands of wrong people. I am
giving a general Yoga which says that if Saturn or Mars is in Kendra to Moon and they
are afflicted then mother suffers much pain while giving birth to the native and person
will be left by his parents [Adopted], This is from Brihat Jataka as far as I can
remember.
In his D60, Moon is with Rahu in Leo and Saturn is in Taurus, Hence Saturn comes in
Kendra to Moon, and Moon being with Rahu is afflicted, the depositor of Moon is
afflicted being with Mars in Pisces. As per me, his Shastiamsa lagna have to be Cancer
which changes the birth time to 19:17:05. Rectification method will be given in the
next article of the series.
2. He had four children, one daughter from his girlfriend and three children from wife –
Again due to the same reason told above I am not giving Yoga’s for having an
illegitimate child, but to display the power of literal translation and liberal
interpretation I am giving a Shloka from Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra which indicates
one will child born from another person. सुतेशे नरराशिस्थे राहुणा सहितो शशीI पुत्र स्थानं गते मन्दे परजातं
वदेच्छि शुम्II Translator of Brihat Parashara Hora have interpreted it to mean that ‘If 5th
lord is in a male sign and Moon be with Rahu whereas Saturn is in 5th house then child
is born of another person’ However as per me नरराशिस्थे means sign of a male planet and
not male sign, there is difference between them because Male signs are Aries,
Geminni, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius whereas Rashi of male planets are
Aries, Leo, Scorpio, Sagittarius and Pisces. Also, I am considering Placement and
aspect as one provided the house under consideration [5th house] is vacant. So
basically as per me the Shloka means ‘If 5th lord be in Rashi of a male planet and
Rahu be with Moon and at the same time either Saturn is in 5th house or aspect 5th
house in the case there are no planets in 5th house and no other planet aspects 5th
house then one may have illegitimate children’ Regarding number of childern we can
see that dispositor of Mars is Jupiter who is retrograde in 6th house and Mars is with
Sun this must have indicated four childern, Why four because Retrograde and
Vargottama planets indicate thrice more and planets in Own Sign or Mool Trikona
indicates twice more [This is a principle used in longevity calcultions but using my
advice of literal translation and liberal intrepretation, one can develop better predictive
skills. Liberal interpretation is also emphasised by Shri K. N. Rao but I have added
literal translation before it].
3. Married in 1991 – Being born in Leo Lagna “Shasti-Hayani Dasha’ is applicable in his
case as per my research which can be read here. He was married in Jupiter Dasha,
Remember that Jupiter is retrograde and his aspect should also be taken from the
previous Rashi [a Nadi principle, remember my comment about other branches of
astrology from above], Jupiter from previous Rashi Scorpio aspects Saturn who is 7th
lord, [Not only aspects but makes a relationship of mutual aspect], Being retrograde
[taking his aspect from previous house which works] his dispositor is Mars, Mars is
aspected by Saturn from Saturn’s 10th aspect in Dwadasamsa, [Mutual relationship,
aspect is weak, mutual relationship is stronger], Saturn is also 10th lord of
Dwadasamsa [Signifying the event]. I am not using the main technique of Dasha
interpretation which is DPC and special divisional chart for marriage [D9] because it is
out of context but research minded scholars should check them to find how
fantastically right techniques mixed with right Dasha works.
Many more events and examples can be given. D60 is a treasure house, Pandora
box. But my aim to write an article is to illustrate working principles, give interpretation
of those Shlokas which are wrongly interpreted, and to share some secrets which are
not from any tradition [which other claims to be] but is my own findings after reading
between the lines and vigorously testing them on multiple charts which disturbs my
sleep and other things but gives immense satisfaction with their results.
