COMPONENT OF ASTROLOGY

In the world, in every place, the sun rise is at different time and the time told differs at every place and by one degree of longitude it makes a difference of 4 min.

The real time at that place, where the native is born is known as ishtkal. By taking out the difference of time from the time zone to that place we can calculate the Actual time of birth.

It is also known as local time the Ishtakal is taken out. For that, it is necessary to know the time of birth. The time of birth (as per Zonal time)and the time according to the Sun at that particular place of birth i.e. longitude and latitude.

RETROGRADE PLANETSThis is only a visionary phenomenon as this occurs due to different speeds of the planets in relation to the earth. The effects on a natal chart are due to fixed angular position of planets with reference to a particular place on the earth for a particular time, natal or transit.

Many texts has been written in this issue, and most of them are nicely backed by examples, logic and convincing arguments. As far as retro gradation is concern, except Moon, Venus and mercury, whichever planet comes from 150 degree to 210 degree from sun are retrograded, and Sun cover 1 house in one month. Which clearly means more then 33% of world population must have at least one planet retrograded in his or her horoscope, but by taking one or two thousands examples does not cover 0.00001% of survey. But such thing has been made a lot of panic in public and excuse for an astrologer due to which, he can escape from his wrong analysis.

Question Chart or Horary Astrology. The Question or Prashna Chart is made for specific queries at a particular time for those natives who do not possess a natal chart. The essential condition for effectiveness of the Question chart is that the seeker approaches an astrologer, when he is impelled by his inner self for seeking astrological help for a specific query, the chart has to be made on the basis of that time. Or can say a complete chart like the birth chart of the time of query is erected. Though there are variety of books or translations of classical works like Tajak Neelkanthi giving clues for analysing Question charts. There is a lot of books on it which helps any one to learn it.

Middle point of the houseThe rising degree in the ascendant is treated as the middle point of the house, though some Text also says that rising degree of ascendant as the beginning point of the house. But we find it as middle point of ascendant.

Nomenclature of Houses

ANALYSIS OF IMPACT OF HOUSES

Zodiac is much different then the House. Houses are fixed and zodiac moves as needles moves in a clock. Similarly planets moves but houses remain in on their place. By this we can understand many things as we can tells the time by seeing clock, similarly we can tell the time of birth by this horoscope type of clock. Sun rises from eastern direction and then moves to little higher above to horizon then to our head then goes down to western horizon. In the same way in morning it is in 1st house then goes to 12th house then to 11th house and in mid day it reaches to 10th house of the horoscope. After ward it goes toward 9th house and to western horizon of 8th house and sets in west which is 7th house. It is as simple as a clock. Then again moves to another side of globe and moves toward mid night and again comes to eastern direction and new day starts from first house or new dawn.

Good impact on the houses.

The Impact on a house made by different planets reduces or increases the PROSPERITY OF A HOUSE or Weight of a House: The prosperity of the house which is conjunct or is aspect by a benefic or when its lord is in youth stage or in matured or in above to infant along with glittering with the light of Sun. Even if a planet is retro gate but glittering with the rays of Sun gives good impact. The house, which is not accepted by its lord or whose lord is with a malefic planet or with one of the lords of evil and such other houses (i.e. 6th, 8th, and 12th) or in still stage never gives any good effect to anyone. Here is a lot of confusion about the strong or strength of planet. It is very simple to know which planet is

Page 5: Astro Basics

strong, the planet which is vargottam, or is getting in same zodiac or house again and again in all the 16 charts is strongest and youth. Reaching to youth age means getting power, reaching to decay side means dying, while dying it shows reduced good impact. The decayed planet never be able to show any good or bad impact. The planet which is near to Sun in horoscope or is decayed, then also it never be able to give any good impact, even if it is best in Vargottam. Each type of chart (except moon chart) is a varga and getting higher or more time in his own or exalted place means more stronger planet. On the same time it is also observed that if such thing appears in any horoscope get help from other combination, so that the cycle of life get uplift in other aspect of life.

The health or well being of a house is assured under the following conditions:(a) the house that contains a benefic or owner of that zodiac.(b) The house that is accepted by a benefic or strong planet.

The house whose lord is in youth state or young state. These two states are among the 5 states, (infant, young, youth, old and decayed). All stars decays when it reaches 6 degree to SUN.

(c) Matured state is one another name for awakened state. This applies to a planet it is in its own sign or in exaltation sign. But more then 6 degree away from sun. The house occupied by an exalted planet or placed in own sign makes the house more healthy.

(d) Luminaries also effect the house very negatively and in such cases these luminaries should not be there in such house. It is true that a planet owing two houses if placed in own house, makes or develops only one house not the another, and it is the reason that a person can get only one thing either fame in outside home of inside home. Average or middle one are the best who enjoys both and get pain from both side. But according to Parashar it gives strength to both the houses and simultaneously, its another house also gets strengthened by virtue of such a placement.

For example, Mars owns the 3rd and 9th for Leo ascendant (fist house is also known as Lagan or Lagn or Ascendant) and if it is in the 3rd house then it will give good result to brothers, courage etc. as it is placed in 3rd house as a lord of 3rd house as well as as the lord of 9th house. but for 9th house it is not a helping one and luck never favors to such person but his own courage and strength helps him.

(e) The house owned by a planet placed in the 10th and 11th from the ascendant will produce good results.

Malefic impact on house

The poor or malefic impact or ignorance of the house which is conjunct or is aspect by a malefic and or when its lord is in decay or near to sun or not getting light from Sun and retrogate. Even if a planet is in exalted but decayed then it never be able to give good result, specially if Saturn or Venus are with Sun even if they are exalted they bring much pain in the life of native and he never be able to get good gain in life. The house, whose

Page 6: Astro Basics

lord is placed in 6th, 8th, and 12th house except in the case of hurdle creator planets, gives malefic impact on that house.The hurdle creator planets are

Jupiter in case of Gemini and Virgo ascendant11th house lord in case of Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn.9th house lord in case of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius.

When these planets get placed in some other house other then 6th, 8th, and 12th house they give malefic impact to that house. In case of 6th, 8th and 12th house they gives very good impact.

Following are the conditions when we can understand the malefic impact on the house:

(a) According to Parashar the house not getting aspect by its lord, never get any flourishing time. It is understood that each house cannot be under the aspect of its lord. Then this does not mean that the house will suffer ignorance, but most of the house gets partial aspect of the planet. It only means that it will not get any additional support from its lord. If a malefic relation is existing for a house, its lord's aspect on the malefic planet, it gives unknown help of cosmos to the person, like by excess sense of sixth sense.

(b) The lord of a house have any relation with a malefic planet is a negative sign for characteristic of the house. Even if that malefic is a friendly planet to the house lord or if they join in favorable houses, then the evil effect does not vanished but of course reduced up to a limit of half of its impact.

(c) The lord of a house in conjunction with the lord of 6th, 8th, and 12th always gives wrong result. But if the lord if ascendant and 8th house or Ascendant and 12th house or Ascendant and 6th house are same, or these house are having Venus on it back or 12th from them, then get the person get benefit from cosmos.

(d) Normally, in most of the text it is mentioned that when two planets are on the same degree there occur a war and the one with lesser longitude is declared winner. The luminaries do not enter into war. It is the area which is beyond understanding, planets are not human or Don who can have war, but it mixes the impact of each other such as blue + yellow makes green.

(e) When the house lord is in decaying stage or old age it becomes ineffective from the giving any good or bad impact. According to Parashar 18 to 24 is degree from Sun means the old age of planet and many other sage said 60 and 120 is the degree of old age. But we have seen that 6 to 12 degree are the degrees when a planet, except Mercury, do not give good result.

PERIOD OF PLANETS

Dasas/Periods of Planets

According of many schools of Vedic Astrology, there are many kinds of Dasa or periods. Amongst them Vimsottari is the most appropriate in Kaliyug (Present Yug, yug means major time phase, is known as Kaliyug, there are total number of Yugs) as it convers the seconds and fraction of time in the 7th inner Stage of sooksham Dasa.

The other Dasa are as follows1. Astottari Dasa2. Shodsottari Dasa3. Dwadasottari Dasa4. Panchottari Dasa5. Satabdika Dasa6. Chaturashiti?sama Dasa7. Dwisaptati?sama Dasa8. Shastihyani Dasa9. Shatvimsa?sama Dasa10. Kala Dasa11. Chakra Dasa12. Kala Chakra Dasa

Following Dasa are also mentioned in some Sholokas of Vedic time Sage.

Page 11: Astro Basics

1. Chara Dasa2. Sthira Dasa3. Kendra Dasa4. Karaka Dasa5. Brahmagraha Dasa6. Mandook Dasa7. Shool Dasa8. Yogardha Dasa9. Drig Dasa10. Trikona Dasa11. Rasi Dasa12. Panchswara Dasa13. Yogini Dasa14. Pinda Dasa15. Naisargi Dasa16. Ashtavarga Dasa17. Sandhya Dasa18. Pachaka Dasa19. Tara Dasa

In ancient time different Sage as used these dasa but only Astotari Dasa, yogini Dasa are surviving now but very few people knows about the basis of all these dasas. We are trying to revive the base of each kind of Dasa which are based on nakshatras (constellations), just similar to Vimsottari Dasa. Most of the above Dasa in 2nd kind of dasa are much related to natives question, time of question and its comparision with the present shookshm dasa. As all these dasa's were requring a long methametical calculations and deeper knowledge so the knowledge about these dasa started loosing grounds and gradually vanished.

It is very interesting to mention here that the among the first person who wrote and analysed the period of Dasa first time in Vedic Time was King Mya. He was the father in law of King Ravana, and they were amongs the most knowledge persons of their time. It is the same Ravana's who got defeated by Lord Ram, in his golden City Gold and Golden Coral.

In the Text Bahrat Jatakam written by Sage Varah Mihir, the sage has mentioned about Mya it in his first sholoka of chapter related to longevity.

According to conception of Dasas in the Vedic Astrology the planets produce their effects according to their nature as shown by them in individual's horoscope. The time of the impact are major periods (Maha Dasas), sub?periods (Antar Dasas) or sub sub periods (Pratyantar Dasas), sub-sub-sub period (shookshm Dasa) sub sub sub sub Period (Pran Dasha) the last one is limited to Seconds where as first one i.e Maha Dasa is in years.

Page 12: Astro Basics

According to Vedic Astrology and other text related to Bhavisyha (subject related to Future) in Kaliyuga the maximum natural life span of a human being is mentioned as 120 years hence Vimsottari Dasa, which is of 120 years in total, has mentioned as the most appropriate among all the Dasa's.

The period of 120 year is divided into the periods of following planets.

1. Sun 6 years.2. Moon 10 years3. Mars 7 years4. Rahu 18 years5. Jupiter 16 years6. Saturn 19 years7. Mercury 17 years8. Ketu 7 years9. Venus are 20 years.

The Dasa starts from the nakshatra of Moon i.e. for a person which dasa will start use to be calculated from the lord of Nakshatra in which Moon was placed when the person is born.

Such as: If a person is born when the Moon was in Kritika nakshatra then its first period will be of Sun, and how much period is left or balance of the period of Sun use to be calculated by the ratio of balance remaining time, and already passed time of that Nakshatra. Nakshatras are the Constellation, and the whole sky is devided in to 27 nakshatra.

Astottari Dasa:

According to Sage Parashar, the Astottri sada is suitable for analysis for a person when Rahu not placed in Ascendant of 4th, 5th, 7th, 9th or 10th house of the horoscope. It is having little different in calculation from Vimshottari Dasa, according to this system of Dasa:The Dasa of the Sun starts from the 4th nakshatras from Aridra Nakshatra. The Dasa of the Moon starts from 3rd nakshatras after it.The Dasa of the Mars starts from 4th nakshatras after it.The Dasa of the Mercury starts from the 3rd nakshatras after that.The Dasa of the Saturn will start from the 4th nakshatras after it.The Dasa of the Jupiter will start from the 3rd nakshatra after it.The Dasa of the Rahu will start from the 4th nakshatra after it.The Dasa of the Venus will start from the 3rd Nakshatra after it.

In this system Ketu has been left away from being the lord of any dasa.

The duration of Astottari Dasa for the Sun, the Moon, Mars, Mercury, Saturn, Jupiter, Rahu and Venus are 6,15,8,17,10,19,12 and 21 years respectively.

Page 13: Astro Basics

SHODSOTTARI DASA

Shodsottari Dasa is well recommended by Sage's for the person who is born, when the following condition are getting fulfilled:

The degree of ascendant is greater then 15 degree for Odd Zodiacs and Less then 15 degree for Even ascendants, and the birth is in the Krishna Paksh (after ful moon and prior to moon less night).

Or

The degree is greater then 15 degree for even Zodiac Ascendant and less then 15 Degree for odd ascendant and birth is after moonless night and prior to full moon.

In this system the birth dasa use to be counted from the Pushya Nakshatra to the birth Nakshatra of the person. Add the number in 7 as Pushya is 7th Nakshatra and devide it by 8 the remainder will indicate the Dasa at the birth. If the person is born in Pushya Nakshatra then Count the number of nakshatra from Pushyami to the Janma Nakshatra. After deviding 7+1 (the Pushya it self is Number one hence 7+1=8) by 8 reminder is 1 hence Sun's dasa will be there at the time of birth.

The Dasa's under this system are as follows.

1. Sun 11 years2. Mars 12 years3. Jupiter 13 years4. Satrun 14 years5. Ketu 15 years6. Moon 16 years7. Mercury 17 years 8. Venus 18 years

It is one of the very strong kind of dasa as it the only dasa which deals on in those case where Ascendant is powerful and person is getting high will backing from Ocean.

Little different from Shodsottari Dasa, the calculation of birth dasa of the person use to be counted from the Revti Nakshatra and deviding it by 8. The remainder indicates the Dasa at the time of birth. Revti is the 27th Nakshatra of the collection.

Page 14: Astro Basics

The Dasa under this system is as under

1. Sun 7 years2. Jupiter 9 years3. Ketu 11 years4. Mercury 13 years5. Rahu 15 years6. Mars 17 years7. Saturn 19 years8. Moon 21 years

PAHCHATTORI DASA

Along with it the Ascendant must be very strong and must be having at least 6 Varga's Ascendant. (same navmansha, same sodansha, etc in 6 charts. For Kings of Kings and Kings of very peaceful countries or very learned scholars and big businessmens. It very clearly indicates the period of fall and the remedial measures of this dasa accordingly were much famous for their impact on the kingdom or field of the natives. In present time it is highly recommended for big businessmen.

Just like previous two dasa's it is counted form the Nakshatra Anuradha to the Janma Nakshatra and dividing it by the number by 7. The remainder indicates the Dasa at the time of birth of the person.

The Dasa under this system is as under1. Sun 12 years2. Mercury 13 years3. Satrun 14 years4. Mars 15 years5. Venus 16 years6. Moon 17 years7. Jupiter 18 years

Rahu and Ketu are not been given place in this system as they give the impact of planet with whom they get placed or the lord of that house.
