Editorial

We have entered into the next month of the year named Jaya. This will be a crucial month

with respect to the English month of June as Jupiter is moving from Taurus to Gemini. This

change of position of Jupiter will be very important for almost everyone as Jupiter is exalted

in Gemini. This exalted position of Jupiter is very good for spirituality and many spiritual

activities can be experienced in the next one year (till Jupiter moves to the next house of

Cancer).

It’s been an interesting month for the entire country due to BJP getting a simple majority in

elections (under the leadership of Narendra Modi). As per astrology we will see quite a lot of

changes for the good under the prime minister-ship of Modi. It is also going to good for

spiritual organizations as a result of the support of Modi.

When there is good, there also has to be bad. Thus though for spiritual people it will be

good, the next year can also be bad for lagna or rasi of Sagittarius as they will find Jupiter

in the 8th (though it will not be that bad still they will face obstacles that will eventually be

overcome through effort).

People often wonder – if fate does exist then there is no point of astrology as whatever has

to happen will definitely happen; if fate doesn’t exist and it is only in our hands then there is

no point of astrology as it is just about our own effort. Such kind of arguments are not right.

As amma says a salty water can be made less salty by adding more water to it; thus though

fate is there we can negate it with our own effort (free-will). Astrology is a science that can

show us how our future will be and knowing this we can try to negate it with our own effort.

This subtle aspect of the science of astrology is not at all remembered by majority of people

and therefore they spread the news that astrology isn’t right, it isn’t required and one is a

fool to depend upon it.

A wise person will try to use whatever is available to him in order to achieve the ultimate

goal of life, moksha. Moksha or ever rejoicing in bliss is through gaining the knowledge that

the entire world of names and forms is just an illusion in the non-dual reality of Brahman

(one’s very nature of Consciousness that pulsates inside as I-exist, I-exist at all times).

Since moksha goes against the world and its experience, therefore one needs to put more



4

effort towards it (and not get distracted with the world). In order for this to happen, life in

the world should be smooth (so that all focus is shifted from the world to the non-dual

reality of Brahman). This is where astrology comes handy in that it tells us what we are

going to face and therefore makes us ready for the future (or ready to avert the future).

Knowing the future and avoiding obstacles in the future (as much as possible) will make us

progress smoothly in the world while ever remaining focused on the goal of moksha.

Thereby using the science of astrology a person will be able to eventually achieve the

ultimate goal of life of moksha.

Through learning and practicing the science of astrology we will be able to help people get

rid of sorrows in the world and ultimately achieve the goal of moksha. Therefore all those

who are passionate about astrology should learn it with earnestness and dedication. It is the

purpose of this magazine to help those who are passionate about astrology so that slowly

they learn the science of astrology and eventually master it thereby helping themselves and

others in order to achieve the ultimate goal of life of moksha. Since everybody is seeking

the goal of moksha therefore it would be helpful for everyone to learn and master the

science of astrology.

May we all strive to learn and master the science of astrology so that through the same we

will be able to get rid of all sorrows and ever rejoice in bliss (through attaining the ultimate

goal of life of moksha).

Bhavartha Ratnakara - III

In the earlier edition we have seen the dhana yogas in the text. We shall now explore the

3rd chapter of this text which deals with “Brothers”.

Below are the conditions stated by the text with respect to brothers and courage, which

signify this house.

1. The existence of brothers should be divined from either the lord ofthe 3rd or from the

karaka of brothers or from the planets combinedwith Mars.

2. If Sun and Mars are associated with the 3rd lord in the 3rd house,the native will be

courageous.

3. Bravery is indicated by the presence of Rahu or Ketu in 3rd, whereasthe presence there

of Mercury would indicate timidity.

4. If the 3rd house is occupied by either Jupiter or Mars, the nativewill have brothers.

5. Jupiter in the 11th will make one suffer from the elder brother. IfMars is in 11th and is

aspected by Saturn, there’ll be no elder brotherfor the native.

6. The presence of 10th lord in the 3rd results in the destruction ofmost rajayogas.

7. If the 2nd and 3rd lords are associated, the native will begenerous. If Saturn combines

such an association, the native becomes amiser instead.

8. If the 3rd lord is in a dusthana, brothers die. If benefics are alsothere in these houses,

the deaths will happen later in life.

Let’s analyse few charts below to understand about brothers and courage from the 3rd

house.



6

Chart 1

Analysis:

The 3rd lord of the above native is sun. 3rd lord sun is in a Kendra. So this shows the support

of kith and kin to the native. This also ensures that the native is courageous. Mars aspects

sun in lagna. Due to the aspect of mars on the 3rd lord sun as well the native is very

courageous.

From moon, ketu is in the 3rd house aspected by benefics venus and Jupiter. This also

indicates that the person is very bold.



7

Chart 2

Analysis:

The native of this chart is timid. He is generally unable to take decisions. He is always

wavering. He cannot be bold to stand up to what he believes.

We see that mercury is in the 3rd house long with moon, which could be the reason for his

timid nature.

From moon as well the 3rd has ketu along with a benefic Jupiter. This is good.

The native has no brothers, as mars is neecha in lagna. This also made the native not so

courageous.

The native has one sister this can be due to the moon with 3rd lord mercury. Sister is elder

to him.



8

Chart 3

Analysis:Jupiter and mars are in 3rd house for this native. The native has many brothers and

sisters as well. We see that the 3rd lord venus is exalted and is in the lagna. Thus we see

that the native has sisters as well.

From moon the 3rd lord is Jupiter and 3rd lord is also with mars. Thus we see that both from

moon and lagna the 3rd lord and house is associated with Jupiter and mars.



9

Chart 4

Analysis:

The native of this chart has a younger brother. The 3rd lord is Jupiter and is in the 11 th

house with rahu. Native does not have elder brothers.

Mars as well is neecha. But being placed in 10th house it obtained neecha bhanga.

From moon mars is neecha in the 3rd house. The natives has younger brother who has

many health issues. This is due to the 3rd lord not well placed and associated with malefic.

The 3rd house also afflicted by mars which is debilitated.

As mars debilitated also means that brothers will not prosper.



10

Chart 5

Analysis:

The native of this chart had a younger brother who died in an accident.

The 3rd lord in the above chart is mars. Mars is in 10th house.

3rd house is aspected by Jupiter. Thus the native has a brother.

The 3rd house is afflicted by sun and Saturn aspects. Moon is also neecha and is in the 3rd

house. The 3rd lord mars also is in enemies house and is with enemy mercury. Thus the 3rd

lord, mars as well the 3rd house were afflicted, resulting in the death of the native’s brother.

The native of the chart is also not courageous and is very timid and has all kinds of fears

and worries.



11

Thus in this edition we have seen the chapter dealing with brothers and courage. If 3rd is

afflicted it results in harm caused to brothers as well as lose of courage. Mars also helps in

the same way. We shall see others chapters of the text in the next Edition.



12

Jataka Tattva - I

Another text following the parasari system of predictive astrology is Jatakatattva. This text

has been written by Mahadeva and it dates back to 1888. This Sanskrit work is also said to

provide more to diagnose ailments.

This text consists of five sections. Samjna, Sutika,Prakirna,Strijataka and dasha. We shall

see the 3rd section, which is called prakirna. Prakrina is further divided into 13 sub divisions.

Each division corresponds to one house of the zodiac. We shall see some slokas from the

first sub division, which corresponds to the 1st house, which is called Prathamavivekaha.

If lord of the lagna be conjoined with a dry planet, the person will be lean.

If lord of the lagna occupy the sign owned by a dry planet, the person will be lean.

If lagna be in a watery sign and be occupied or aspected by benefics, the person concerned

will have a strong body.

If a benefic planet possessed of strength, occupy the lagna, the native will possess a strong

constitution.



13

Chart 1

Analysis:

Lagna lord is venus and is in house of aries which is owned by mars. Mars is a dry planet.

So lagna lord is in the sign owned by a dry planet. Hence the person is lean.

Lagna lord venus is with mars and sun. Both mars and sun are dry planets. Hence also the

person is lean.

But lagna lord is in watery sign of aries. Also there are no benefic planets in lagna.

Hence the native of the chart was very lean during the early stages of childhood. Now he

has put on weight to an extent. Still he is not fat nor very lean. Due to the above mentioned

factors, his body structure remains so.

Lagna lord is in the 12th house of losses. This is not a favourable location for healthy

constitution of the body. Hence the person suffers from health issues frequently.

Lagna is also not in a watery sign. Taurus is an earthy sign.



14

The four signs from Cancer are long signs. The four signs from kumbha are short signs. The

rest are even signs.

If two luminaries occupy the kendras the person has a defective limb.

If venusaspected by Saturn occupy the lagna, the person will have some defect in the hip.

If lord of the 6th occupy the sign of mercury or is in makara, the body emits bad smell.

Chart 2



15

Analysis:

The 6th lord Saturn is in Virgo, which is the house of mercury. The lord of lagna is the

house of enemy i.e Saturn. There is a parivartana between the lagna lord mercury and 5th

and 6th lord Saturn. The 6th lord is owner of kumbha and is in virgo.

The native had some body smells.

If moon occupy mesha identical with lagna, the body emits bad smell.

If the lord of lagna is in 12th and is conjoined with or aspected by malefic, the person will

walk with the support of a stick.

If the lagna lord is in the 12th or 8th house, the person will be of angry temperament.

In chart 1 above we have seen that the lagna lord is in the 12th house. The native is short

tempered. He is also dhanurrasi, this can also be another reason for anger and short

temper.

If mars is strong and is in the 7th, the person is of angry temperament.

If the lord of the 2nd house be associated with mandi, the person concerned will be angry.

If ketu be in the 3rd, the person concerned will be fond of quarrels.

If the lord of the 4th house be in lagna and vice versa, the person will be of forgiving

disposition.



16

In the chart of AMMA, Saturn is exalted in lagna. Being of Thulalagna, Saturn is the 3rd and

4th lord exalted in lagna. We all know AMMA is very compassionate. All the mistakes of her

children AMMA forgives. 4th house stands for mother. A mother is very patient and forgiving

in nature towards her children. So the 4th lord in lagna makes a person have forgiving

nature.

If fourth house is strong, the native will be of forgiving disposition.

If mercury and mars occupy the sign of Saturn, the person will be intent in creating mirth.

In chart 2 we see that mars and mercury are in makara. Makara is owned by Saturn. Thus

mars and mercury are in the sign of Saturn.

Native is more bent towards having good fun and amusement in life.

If mars is in the 3rd house and mercury and moon are aspected by mars, the person will be

intent on causing harm to others.

If rahu and Saturn are in the 9th from navamsa of the navamsa of atmakaraka, the person

will be treacherous to his own perceptor.



17

Chart 3

Analysis:

The atmakaraka for the above chart is mars. The navamsa of mars is makara. The 9th house

from makara is Virgo. Rahu is in the 9th from the navamsa of mars. Saturn is not in the 9th

house. The native left the guru after staying for many years. The native also spread false

news and rumours on the Guru.

We can clearly see that the rule mentioned above applies partially rule but does shows such

indications of being treacherous to one’s own perceptor.

If the lord of lagna is without strength, the person can be treacherous.



18

Chart 4

Analysis:

Lagna lord is mars for the above chart and is neecha or debilitated. The lagna also is at0

deg. This is not good for the health of the native as well. Lagna lord is in 4th house along

with malefic sun as well. All these combinations show that the person can be treacherous.

If ketu occupy the navamsa of atmakaraka the person will be a thief.

If the lord of the 12th house occupy 3rd, the person will be a robber.

If the lord of 8th house occupy the 2nd the person will be a robber.



19

If mercury and mars occupy the 6th and be strong, the person will be a robber.

If the lord of the 12th be in depression, the person will be addicted to vice.

Chart 5

Analysis:

12th lord is sun and is in depression. 12th lord is in the 2nd house. So the 2nd house is also

afflicted. 2nd and 12th houses affliction shows that the person can be addicted to vices. Sun

is also with malefic mars.

The native has addictions which stray him away from normal behavior of individuals. Native

has strong addiction for food. Native of the chart has also other habits. Native is trying to

come out of the habits, but finding it tough. Due to the 2nd and 12th lord and houses

afflictions we can see the addictions by nature.



20

If the lord of lagna is in depression or in an inimical house, the person concerned will be

addicted to some vice and will be unfortunate.

In the above chart 5, the lagna lord is mercury. Mercury is in the 2nd house with sun, which

is debilitated. Mercury is with mars which is its enemy. Thus lagna lord is with a neecha

planet and also with an enemy. This is also another strong reason why the native is

addicted.

Thus we have seen many sutras mentioned in the text and examples along with it. We shall

continue our understanding with more sutras and examples in the next edition of the

magazine.



21

Nakshatras - V

Continuing on discussion on stars, We shall see the next star in order i.e Hasta, which is

13th star.

Hasta/Atham

This star is ruled by moon. People of this star are emotional and passionate and mind

oriented than intellectual. The native will be good and have material wealth and well settled

in life. Its deity is sun.

The anujanma star we have already seen for this is Rohini. The weakest part of the body for

people of this star is throat, similar to rohini people. It belongs to deva gana and male

gender.

This is a good star for all activities. Black in color and consisting of five stars. It looks like a

hand with five fingers.

General Characteristics

The native will lead a very happy life in his old age after acquiring name and fame. Deeply

contemplative, he will be kind to all, give help and succour to all those who seek refuge,

philanthropic and mindful of virtue or sin in every activity undertaken.

He will be blessed with children, he will be devoted to elders and teachers, pious by nature

and speaks behaves agreeably towards women.

He is proficient in defeating his opponents. He is very persevering in all his undertakings

however difficult it can be or whatever obstacles he may meet and will not sit quiet until he

is successful.

People born in this star will not begin any work without prior deep consideration. Once

started they will not stop till it is done well, excellently finished. They will not do anything

without material benefits.



22

All the four padas of this star fall in virgo. The lords of the padas are mars, venus, mercury

and moon.

Lord of the star moon and lord of the house of the star i.e mercury effect the star padas

apart from the pada lords which differ for each pada. So now let’s see the different padas

and characteristics.

1st pada: The ruler of pada is mars. Full of physical strength and mental vigour. Intellectual

conflicts will be there. Will be wealthy and will have all comforts. Native will be daring in any

work undertaken. He will be desirous of speaking truth only.

2nd pada : Venus is the lord. Native is passionate. Oriented towards material benefits in life.

Tough to be spiritual. Rajo guna dominant. Native will be soft spoken and charming in

manners. He will be anxious to show his best to please people. He may be dull-witted.

3rd pada: Mercury is the lord. The native will be intelligent and well learned in several

languages. He will be a philanthropist, large hearted and will help others.

As pointed our swami Vivekananda, belongs to third pada of hasta. We see that swami ji

was very good at speaking and highly intellectual, due to mercury dominating. Mercury is

also a sattva guna planet. Hence helps in spirituality. As being the nature of this star, swami

was always contemplative in nature. Off course we all know how swami ji has contributed to

the entire mankind.

4th Pada: moon is the lord. Native will be highly emotional. They shall have poetic talents

and can be writers. They will be wealthy. They will excel in government services and occupy

high positions. They will help friends and relatives without hesitation. They will slightly be

shot tempered.

It’s said that when the native reaches half the age of his father, the person’s father would

expire. This also shows that native’s father will die early. Swami Vivekananda's belongs to

this star. His father also died when swami ji was in his 20’s. it is a known fact that if hasta

star is for a male and if the male's age comes exactly half of father (if this comes alone)

then the father will die.



23

The native will be deeply contemplative in nature. They will start ruminating about even

small things long ahead. As the star hasta stands for hand any work undertaken by them

will be long-standing and will be for good of all. But any work started with selfish ends may

not succeed. This is stated in nakshtra sootra.

Rama’s children lava and kusha were born in this star. Mostly those born in this star will

work hard till middle age and then they will have a very happy life.

It is stated that the native will loose his father early.

When the sun transits this star the price of commodities will be low. If girls mature in this

star they will beget good children and also lead a happy married life.

It is good for the performance of weddings, naming ceremony, upanayana, beginning

studies both scientific and vedic etc.

If trade is started in this star, I will flourish. Excellent for learning mantras, good for

meeting with high officials. Also for wears new jewellery and house warming ceremony.

Good for agriculture and operations, especially sowing. Good too for starting lessons in

sculpture. If travel is commenced it will be successful.

The letter ‘pu’ , ‘sha’ , ‘na’ and ‘da’ are respectively appropriate for the four padas.

The moon dasa lasting for 10 years pertains to this star.

This star can be seen in the month of April about midnight like a hand with fingers.

Hasta or attam is a very special star - the nature of this star people is very peculiar. They

are smart but dull in nature. Their dullness isn't inherent dullness but it appears like that

externally. Generally they might be slow to start but once started they will be quick to get

to the result of actions. When we interact with them, what stands out is their dull (or in a

way moody) nature. But socializing well, interacting well with people and being imaginative

or creative is part of their nature. Their imagination, creativity and moodiness is due to

being ruled by the planet moon. Like the waxing and waning of hte moon, they will also be

moody.



24

We can see traces of indecisiveness, like rohini, for this star people as well. They will not be

easily able to decide things - though internally they might be clear and unaffected, they will

cause others to get unclear and affected. Therefore care should be ensured while working

with these people or while interacting with such people.

Another notable thing for this star is as it is ruled by moon, therefore people born in this

star might be a bit feminine (or have feminine traits). Swami Vivekananda had a sweet or

soft voice (like girls have) and in many others we can find a tinge of feminine in his

appearance.

Chitra

Generally it is said that, according to a proverb that child born in this star is not good for

the father. Generally the son born in this star is adopted by another. Sita Devi the wife of

Sri Rama is said to be born in this star. It said that women born in this star will not have a

happy married life. They will struggle after marriage as in the case of Sita Devi.

This star is female gender, animal symbol is tiger(Female) and rakshasa gana. The weakest

part for this star is head. Mars is the ruler of this star. The anujanma for this star is

mrigasira. It is white in color and pearl-white. It shines solitarily. It is also called

“soumyatara” as it shines peerlessly white in sky.

General characteristics

The natives of this star behave familiarly with women. They expose their lascivious nature.

They have long beautiful eyes, sweet words and charming looks. They use cosmetics

liberally. With their affable manners and endearing speech, they are able to work out their

designs. It is an auspicious star for all activities.

They are more socializing and mingle well with people. They are tactful in their dealings with

others. They need people around them. They liked to be praised and are artistic nature. It is

Tough for them to be spiritual. They want name and fame.

The four padas of the star are ruled by sun, mercury, venus and mars. But 2 padas of chitra

fall in virgo and 2 padas in thula.



25

1st pada: Sun is the ruler of the pada. The planets to be considered are mars, mercury and

sun. The native will occupy high position in life. Able to command others. He would like to

rule over others. He may not be steady minded or level minded. They are socializing and

are helpful. They will be guided by spiritual people. They will be undertaking works for

establishment of dharma. They cannot do lower level jobs. They are egoistic in nature,

power seeking and aggressive but smart.

2nd pada : Mercury is the ruling planet. They native is learned and intelligent. But he lacks in

manliness and charm. They are pious and sweet tongued. They can turn spiritual. They can

get things done what they attempt to complete.

3rd pada: Venus is the lord. They are passionate people. They have desires and good at

social life. They enjoy all pleasures. They are kind hearted. Assist others in times of need

and danger. He will behave respectfully towards the wise. They would like to have name

and fame. Being always kind by nature, it is called abhayaamsam.

4th pada: Ruled by mars. They are bold and daring and will manage any situation. He will

have even the ability to command a band of burglars or terrorists.

If in an army, he will be able to display fearless attitude. He can shine as an able surgeon in

the medical services. They are aggressive, dominating, egoistic, work oriented and martian

in nature.

This star is good for collecting herbs for preparation of ayurvedic medicine. If fever

commences in this star shaanti neds to be done. It is good star for girls to mature. They will

beget good children. Good star for all auspicious ceremonies.

The star is auspicious for commencing learning of fine arts, music, dance and also for

Vedas and sastras. Good for architectural activities also.

Such letters as “pe”, po“, “re”, “ree” are respectively for the four padas of this star.

Mars lasting for 7 years is connected with the star. This star shines like a fish or the eye of a

tiger and seen in the month of april at 1a.m just above the head.



26

Natives born in this star are feminine, are socializing and need people around them. They

are active as mars is the lord.

The star of chitra is supposed to be feminine in nature. People born in this star mix well with

others. They are very socializing in nature. Well behaved but at the same time mingling

very easily, they will generally have lot of people around them (in the form of friends and

others). Due to being very social in nature they also are volatile or fluctuating in nature.

They generally will also want people around them - if not, they cannot live or survive.

Any person who wants people around him or her would also be selfish to an extent. This

star people generally are selfish and everything that is done will be keeping in mind their

selfish motives. They are ruled by planet Mars and therefore are aggressive also in nature.

If we go against them or give them opinion against their wish, then they will retaliate very

strongly - therefore they have to be dealt with in a diplomatic way.

Swati/Chothi

The 15th star in the order is Swati.

Rahu is the ruling planet. The anujanma of this star is Ardra. People belonging to this star

are worldly as Rahu represents mundane life and unconventional.

It belongs to Deva gana and bullock male is the animal symbol for this star. The weakest

part of the body for these natives is throat.

Oysters are supposed to come out during rainy season with their mouths open and when a

raindrop falls into them, it turns into a pearl after some time. The rain drops falling during

the swati star period turn into pearls. It is red color and a single star shining like a ruby.

Feminine in gender, belonging to the dual ‘kula’.

General Characteristics

Those born in this star are lucky, philanthropic, famous, kind and gentle by nature, with

long eyes and broad chests.



27

They will help their relatives in times of need. They are independent of spirit, mart, clever

and intelligent.

If they start independent business they will flourish. Not only do they live independently and

happily but they want others also to be free and happy. With a big heart and pious mane

they are also pious and devoted. After middle age they frequent , temples and tanks and go

on pilgrimages.

They are very stubborn, adamant and will not listen to others. They will have their own

notions. Generally pleasure seeking and spirituality is tough for them.

The four padas of this star are ruled by Jupiter, Saturn, Saturn and Jupiter.

The planets to be considered are venus, rahu and the pada lord.

1st pada: All the four padas belong to the libra sign. The first pada is ruled by Jupiter. The

native will be rolling in wealth. Native will also be intelligent and courageous. He will speak

eloquently, will know several languages and even will have ability to compose poems. Lot of

success in life, Lot of name and fame , power and royality. They are more rajoguna than

tamoguna.

2nd pada : Saturn is the lord of this pada. The native will be seen to be full of gratitude.

Sometimes the native may behave contrary to the right and legal ways. Swing between

tamo guna and rajo guna. Create trouble for others. Aim for life is missing.

3rd pada: Saturn is the lord of this pada. Native is harsh, will have several enemies. He will

not speak out, but ever be ruminating and worrying within himself. He will be angry and will

oppose others with obstinacy. After having spent extravagantly beyond his means, he will

suffer under a great burden of debt. Problems in life unless they approach the guru. Native

clever and dangerous.



28

4th pada: Jupiter is the lord. Those born in this pada will strive hard to be good natured,

diligent and efficient to earn good name. They will have large number of friends. They seek

name and fame, power, position etc. They are royal.

They cannot bear others talking ill of them. They are very sensitive. They are wealthy and

show respect to elders. They are kind hearted too and philanthropic. They are generally

worldly in nature and may have faith in black magic, worship tamo guna deities like kali.

They will have sudden upsets and set backs in life. They will have comforts and pleasures in

life. They will get bad names also. Aim of life is missing for them. They are stubborn,

dominating, daring and adamant in nature. Convincing them is tough.

Of all the stars swathi is supposed to be the best. It is good for collecting herbs for

preparation of medicine.

Those born in the star will be very careful before starting any work. But the star is not good

for travels.

When sun transits this star, the prices of commodities will be very moderate. Swathi is good

for girls to mature. They will lead a happy married life and will beget children. Such a girl

will be highly respected and treated as "mahalakshmi".

It is good for agricultural activities too. It is excellent for celebration of all auspicious

ceremonies like weddings. Good for wearing ornaments, dresses, ornmanets upanayanam

etc.

Any activity commenced in this star will bring good results.

The letters "ru", "ray" , 'ro' and 'tha' are correlated respectively to 4 padas of the star.

The rahu lasting for 18 yrs pertains to this star.

The star will be shining like a ruby in the month of june after 10p.m.

Summarizing swathi is generally good for boys than girls. swathi people are bold, stubborn

an adamant, so if it is a girl, then married life will be troublesome. They are pleasure

seeking and want name and fame.

Generally men are supposed to be bold and women are supposed to soft in nature. There

are situations where the opposite also might be happening - the control isn't with us but this



29

is the general rule. Regarding what happens if men are like women and women are like

men, we just have to look in today's families where there are two men in the house (rather

than a man and a woman) - this affects the smooth working in the family and children as

well in turn will be affected.

Now what's this got to do with Swathi? There are stars that have masculine qualities and

others that have feminine qualities - therefore they are good for men or women (not for

both in some cases). Swathi is a star that is good for men as people born in this star are

strong, bold, dominating in nature. Though they will be considerate in nature, still it is all

about what they want in life - they just want whatever they want at all costs. Therefore we

find that such people will not have a great married life (normally itself and if woman then

more trouble in married life).

We also can find that people born in this star will want to be the centre of attention or

attraction at all times - irrespective of where they are and what they are doing, they just

want to be in the centre or the limelight. Therefore also managing such people is very tough

and often one has to give up one's notions or ideas or pleasures in order to take care of

such people.

The above doesn't mean that such people are bad but just that they should be aware of

their weakness - if they know, then they can slowly overcome it and work towards using it

for their own benefit. A knife can be made to kill a person or made to cut vegetables - it is

about how we use it. Similarly people born in swathi should use their traits of boldness,

dominating nature etc. in order to achieve some nobler goals or missions in life (rather than

causing trouble for themselves and others).

All these are just general characteristics which may be overrode by other factors in the

horoscope - therefore full prediction should only be made after analysis of the full horoscope

(though some traits of the nakshatra will always be found in a person irrespective of what

his horoscope is).

Muhurtha – Electional Astrology - III

We have seen the Lunar day or what we know as tithi in the previous edtion of the

magazine. It’s good to have an understanding about Lunar month and year as well, before

we get into other terms of the panchanga. We shall see how the tithi makes up the month.

Every month starts with shukla padyami and ends with amavasya. Shukla paksha and

Krishna paksha together make a lunar month. It constitutes 30 days. Hence the number of

days in a month in English calendar days and vedic calendar differ.

Each region based on the language have their naming convention, but the general method

followed is the same. The name may differ, but it’s based on the sun’s position. Almost all

regions in india, have the starting of the year almost at the same time, differing in few

days.

The name of a month depends on the location of the sun. When the sun transits out of a

rasi, then next month begins. For example when sun is in mesha, the name of the month is

called chaitra. So below are the names of the months based on the position of the sun.

Month

Rāshi in

English

1 Chaitra Mesha Aries

2 Vaishākha Vrishabha Taurus

3 Jyaishtha Mithuna Gemini

4 Āshādha Kataka Cancer

5 Shrāvana Simha Leo

6 Bhādrapada Kanya Virgo

7 Āshvayuja Thula Libra

8 Kārtika Vrischika Scorpio

9 Mārgashīrsha Dhanus Sagittarius



31

10 Pushya Makara Capricorn

11 Māgha Kumbha Aquarius

12 Phālguna Meena Pisces

It may be possible that there may not be a one transit also in a month or there can be two

transits in a month. Then the name of the month can be interpreted as below

a) Only one transit, then the month is named after the rasi.

Example: If the Sun transits in to Mesha during a Lunar month, then the month is

called Chaitra Maasa. When the Sun transits in to Vrishabha, then the lunar month is

Vaishākha.

b) No Sun transit in a lunar month: If the sun is in one rasi and keeps moving in the

same rasi in the next lunar month, then the lunar month is named after the first

upcoming transit. This month is called Adhika(extra) . An adhika occurs once in two

or three years. Example : If a lunar month elapsed without a sun transit and the

next month is mesha. Then the name of the month will be adhika chaitra.

c) Two sun transits in a lunar month. If sun transits into two rasis within a lunar month.

The month is labeled by first transit and with the word “Kshaya(lost)”. The month

related to the second transit is lost and that month will not be there that year.

Example: If sun moves in mesha and Taurus in one lunar month, Its called chaitra

kshaya. There won’t be vaisakha during this year.

The days in a month are named after the tithi like shukla padyami to amavasya.

Thus there are 12 months in a year and each year also has a name. There is a cycle of 60

names of years which repeat again and again.

Let’s now move onto the second portion of the panchagam, vaara. We have seen tithi and

so now we shall see vaara.



32

Each day in a week is named after a planet. Each day is ruled by that planet. So the events

are planned on the days supported by the planets of that day.

1) Sunday/Ravi vaara – sun

2) Monday/Soma vaara – moon

3) Tuesday/mangala vaara – Mars

4) Wednesday/ Budha vaara – Mercury

5) Thursday/Guru Vaara – Jupiter

6) Friday/ Shukra Vaara – Venus

7) Saturday/ Sani Vaara – Saturn

So in this edition of the magazine we have seen, the lunar month, lunar year and also the

vaara which is the second part of the panchangam.

In the next edition of the magazine we shall see the other angas of the panchangam.

Choosing Right Time for Operation

In various phases of life, we come across situations where we need to determine the time

and operation should be performed. This can be for any ailment to the body or for child

birth. We would like to know whether the time we undergo the operation is good and

whether it will assure that the operation is successful. All want well being and good health.

We can ensure this through astrology by checking the planetary locations and determining

the apt time, so that our efforts put in a direction become fruitful.

For any operation from critical to normal, it’s good to check the time whether it’s favourable

for operation or not. As it involves the emotions of the family members, money invested in

the operation, efforts of the family members and finally well being of the individual. So it’s

good to ensure that the time is favourable as well.

Above all the wellbeing of the individual who is undergoing operation is of utmost

importance. The planetary influences determine the future for us. Thus based on the

gochara, one can determine the time, when the chances of the operation being successful is

more.

Operation is connected with the planet mars. Mars stands for weapons, so for the same

reason for operations the planet mars has to be studied. For any incident, event, in life, if it

has to be successful there should be no obstacles. Obstacles are shown by 6th and 8th

houses. 8th house is especially more important to determine any obstacles in any task taken

up. Planets located in the 8th show impending obstacles.

The purpose of the operation should also be kept in mind and the time has to be

determined. For operation of any organ of body, the corresponding house should not be

afflicted and the karaka of the part should be in good strength. Similarly for children, the

5thhouse and Jupiter should be strong. One should ensure the factors are much as much as

possible, to ensure the venture successful.

Recently we came across a case where an appropriate time for performing an operation for

birth of a child had to be determined. The date of the operation was already fixed and the

time of operation was to be determined. So the purpose of the operation was clear. The



34

date of the operation was also fixed. Let’s see the chart and see how the lagna was arrived

and the time of the operation determined.

Let’s see the possibilities of each lagna for performing the operation and then finalize the

lagna which is better for the operation. With this we can arrive at the time the operation can

be performed.

We need not take into consideration rahukalam for that day as we are considering

thegochara for the operation.

Sometimes we may not be able to be able to satisfy all the conditions or all the key factors.

As the proverb goes, Man proposes God disposes. Then we should be able to choose the

better evil. Good and bad are part of life and we cannot avoid bad completely and have only

good effects. There are always two sides of the coin. There will only few such times when all

good effects are seen. Even Ravana the most powerful king could not control the planets at

the time of birth of his child Indrajit. Due to which Indrajit had short life. Rest all we know is

history.

One should be practical as well in determining the time of operation. Sometimes the

operations have to be performed morning or only night. Considering these practical aspects

as well, one should arrive at the most favourable time.

Two key factors here

1) 8th house should not have planets as it indicates obstacles.

2) Also as operation is being performed on the person, the lagna and lagna lord should

also be strong and not afflicted or debilitated.

3) As the purpose is for children, the 5th house and lord should be unafflicted. Jupiter

also should be well placed.

The order of preference is in the order as given above. We shall try to pick up a time that

satisfies all these factors or an optimal time satisfying most of the conditions.



35

Chart for operation

Analysis:

The date the operation was fixed was on May 19th 2014.

Between 4a.m to 6a.m in the morning, the lagna was Aries on the given day of operation.

At 9 p.m, the same day the lagna changed to Sagittarius. So during the day the lagnas

between Taurus and Thula are available for operation. The client needed a day time for

performing the operation. Let’s see the possibilities.

I. If Lagna is Aries: Lagna lord mars will be in the 6th house of diseases. So this is not

a favourable position for lagna lord. Though the 8th house is clear without any

planets, the lagna lord is not well placed. Hence we cannot have this lagna for the

operation.

II. If Lagna is Taurus: Lagna lord venus is exalted and is in 11th house. This is very

good. 11th house is house of benefits and lagna lord located in it shows only benefits



36

from the operation. Also lagna lord exalted means the person’s health will be good

after the operation. 8th house is free from planets. 6th house has yogakarka Saturn

exalted. Though planet is there in 6th it is not harmful as its yogakaraka and it is

exalted. The 5thhouse has mars and mandi and are afflicted. But venus exalted also

aspects 5th house, bringing down bad effects to an extent. So more than 2 factors

are satisfied if it is Taurus lagna. So this is favourablelagna to an extent.

III. If Lagna is Mithuna: Moon is located in the 8th house. Moon also stands for body

nutrition and well being. So moon in 8th is not a good indication for operation. Also

the lagna lord mercury is the 12th house. This is not a favourable location for lagna

lord. 12th house is house of losses. Hence both the factors are not favourable. This

lagna may not be favourable for the operation.

IV. If Lagna is Cancer: 8th house is free from planets which is a good indication. Lagna

lord is in the 7th house and hence well placed. But moon is in saturn’s house, which is

not very good.Saturn exalted is located in the 4th house with rahu. Saturn is a

malefic as it is owner of the 8th house. 8th lord in 4th house of mother is not good for

mother, who is giving birth to child. Also another malefic rahu is also in the same

house. Venus is the lord of the 4th house and is exalted and well placed in the 9th

house. Jupiter also aspects the 4th house. So mixed effects are shown for the

4thhouse or for the mother of the child. 5th lord mars which indicates children is with

mandi. It is also not well placed. Mars is in the 3rd house and also in the house of

enemy mercury. Jupiter also which is indicator of children is in the 12th house. So the

5th house and karakas have some affliction. 4th house also shows some afflictions.

Hence it is not very favourable.

V. If Lagna is Leo: Venus which is a benefic is in the 8th house. So it is not favourable.

Moon also is located in the 6th house. Lagna lord is well placed in 10th. But due to

planets in the 8th and 6th houses, this lagna may not be favourable for the operation.

VI. If Lagna is Virgo: Mars and mandi in lagna. This is not a good indication for

operation. Mars and mandi show bad effects.Mandi in lagna gives short life. Ketu is

also placed in the 8th house. Due to these factors, this may not be an appropriate

lagna.



37

VII. If Lagna is Thula: Rahu is in lagna, though Saturn the yogakaraka is present as well

in lagnaits not very favourable. The lagna lord though exalted is in 6th house of

diseases. So lagna lord location is not very favourable. Also there are two planets in

the 8th house from lagnai.e sun and mercury. So all these factors rule out the

chances of taking this lagna for the operation.

VIII. If Lagna is Scorpio: lagna lord mars is in the 11th house. This is a very favourable

position. But from lagna Jupiter is in the 8th house. This indicates trouble at the time

of operation. It is also the 5th lord, so not a favourable position for Jupiter. Thus this

lagna is not advisable for operation.

IX. If Lagna is Saggitarius: Lagna lord is in the 7th house. So it is well placed. No planets

in the 8th house. Sun and mercury are in 6th house. Sun in 6th house indicates victory

as well so it is not a bad placement. 5th house is aspected by Saturn which is exalted.

So it’s a good timings as well to perform the operation as lagna lord is well placed.

The 5th lord mars is well placed in 10th house and no planets in the 8th house from

lagna. So this is a favourablelagna and timing for the operation.

So we see that Taurus and saggitarius are more favourable as lagna, for performing the

operation. Cancer lagna has mixed effects. Though saggitarius is favourable,the timing

fallsat 9p.m and not a suitable time for performing the operation. So the time between 6:30

to 7:30 a.m on may 19th 2014, was chosen to be appropriate for performing the operation

for Children.

Thus the various factors were analyzed to arrive at an appropriate time for the operation,

bearing in mind the purpose of operation as well as the feasibility of the operation in the

given time.

Readers are welcome to give their comments and views on this analysis.

Horoscope Analysis

Jaggi Vasudev

Have you heard of yogis and mystic’s driving cars and motor bikes and participating in

adventurous events? JaggiVasudev, whose name is now well known in India as well as in

the west as a yogi and mystic has passion for the same. He is the founder of Isha

foundation center which teaches IshaKriya yoga to all. Many centers of Isha foundation have

sprung up at many places all around India and the world.

From his childhood he was adventurous and had passion for motor bikes and would go

driving and seeing places along the length and breadth of the country. As a student he was

never keen in studies. But he finished his masters in English literature. He was very bent on

a care free life and not keen on earning a living. Inorder to travel as he wants he needed

financial support and in this regard he started his business of poultry farming and many

others.

When he was young he met a saint, whom he considers as his guru, who taught him yoga

asana.Jaggi practiced it everyday without fail, through his life. He says that it’s the only

sadhana he did. He is not learnt in scriptures. His father was a physician by profession and

always worried about Jaggi.

Once while he was doing business, he took a break and went up the chamundi hill, which is

nearby as a usual practice. There on the spur of the moment, he got an out of world

experience which transformed him and his life experience. He describes this state as going

beyond all limitations.

He married later and has a daughter who is now a dancer. His wife attained mahasamadhi

as per her wish, when the child was around 9 years of age. Jaggivasudev built Dhyanalinga,

a consecration for mediation. He says that the aim of his life is to establish the dhyanalinga.

He went through many hardships for the same.

Jaggivasudev now travel far and wide. He established an ashram in Coimbatore in 1992. He

started his discourses and even established centers in America. Lot of humanitarian



39

activities like building house for the poor and economically weak people as well planting

record number of sapplings in a day in Tamiladu and many other social works were taken up

by his ashram.

Letsanalyse the chart of this mystic, who is a householder and who is guiding many across

the world.His time of birth is not known, but saggitarius would be an apt lagna for him as he

travels a lot and is adventurous. Also other factors of his life also match well, if its

dhanuslagna. He belongs to moolanakshatra.

JaggiVasudev

Analysis:

As he is an adventurous person and a globe trotter, we can say that his lagna could be

saggitarius. From lagna moon is the 8th lord and is in lagna. This also could have brought

the mysticism in him as the 8th house also stands for hidden treasures. 8th lord in lagna also

gave him long life. He is around 65 to 70 years of age.



40

From lagna and moon there are 3 planets in the 9th house. He is a very lucky person. His life

was always smooth. He did not have difficulties in life. 9th lord is in the 9th house. So he was

like a leader. He managed many activities all by himself in life. His father was a well known

physician as well.

9th house being strong also made him a leader. The 9th lord sun is in its house. He has

established many temples. The dhyanalinga temple is the most famous one consecrated for

people as temple of meditation. This he referred to as fulfilling the wish of his guru. Three

planets in the 9th house along with the 2 planets in the 10th have made him a siddha. He is a

yogi, who has gained many sidhdis.

Saturn aspects the 9th house from 12th house. This shows that he had conflicts with his

father. His father has always opposed his path and his ways. Sun aspected by Saturn,so

Jaggivasudevdoes not teach people in a traditional method.The conflicts of 9th house shows

threat to father. As we all know he was a business man and wanted to make money to

spend on himself for travelling. All this is due to the mars and Saturn aspects on 9th.

But due to good combinations of married life in the chart, he did enter into marriage. 7th

and 10th lord mercury is in the 9th house with the 5th lord and 12th lord mars and sun the 9th

lord. Thus he fell in love with a girl and married her. 7th lord in 9th with the 9th lord sun, has

made this possible. The 7th lord is also the 10th lord and is in the 9th house of dharma. So

His wife supported him in his actions to serve the world and did her dharma as a house

wife. But as u see venus which stands for partners is weak and is neecha. So his wife was

not with him for long. Before their daughter was 10 years she left the mortal coil and

attained Samadhi. Venus being in the 10th house, has made him marry though its weak.

Weak venus reduces the life span of partner.

The 2nd lord Saturn, which stands for family life is in 12th house. This means loss of family

life. So he no more leads a family life constrained to the four walls of the house. For him

whole world has become the family. 12th house also stands for spirituality. So once a person

turns spiritual, whole world becomes his family. 2nd lord in 12th and aspected by enemy

mars means his words are not straight forward. He indirectly tells people. In this current

world, people cannot bear straight forward people who openly talk the truth. People flock



41

around people who say things indirectly. He is also a man who has lowered himself to the

level of others and conveys things in the way they can apprehend.

3rd lord Saturn is the 12th house. This is not good for kith and kin or the native will be away

from kith and kin. Jaggivasudev was away from his family most of the time. This position of

the 3rd lord also means lack of courage, hence he doesn’t talk about the truth directly. But

there are 3 planets aspecting the 3rdhouse from ninth, so once in a while he speaks abt the

ultimate truth. Sun, mercury and mars aspect it making the 3rd house very strong, so he is

not really a coward. We can see sometimes that he boldly attacks the views and

perspectives of people and brings them to the understanding of the truth. Also 3rd lord

Saturn is aspected by mars. This could have lead to the death of his kith and kin, but as he

joined the spiritual path it would have benefitted his family to great extent.

As 3rd house is aspected by mercury and mercury is a planet of letters, he has written many

books in many languages. His approach is logical as 5th lord mars is with mercury and sun.

Thus he takes a scientific and logical approach to explain the nature of the world. Thus he

attracts the intellectual masses who are looking with a reasoning mind.

4th lord Jupiter is in 10th house, so whatever yoga he learnt from his Guru he has been

teaching that to the world. His profession is filled with comforts. He always has vehicles due

to this strong location of the 4th lord. 6th lord venus is neecha and is with the 4th lord and

lagna lord. Mars the 5th lord is also aspecting the 4th house. Due to the association of 6th

lord which means an enemy, his education took place in English literature, which is a foreign

language unlike Sanskrit or any other indian language. Due to the neecha planet effect, he

didn’t do his studies for long. Also 2nd lord Saturn is aspected by mars, also shows that he is

good at foreign languagelike English than traditional languages.

5th lord mars is in 9th house with 9th lord sun which is its friend. The location is also

favourable. But mars isaspected by Saturn, which is its enemy and mars is associated with

sun, which is also enemy of Saturn. In 5th house ketu is there. This shows that the person

will be inclined towards siddhis and showing siddhis. Through his siddhis he is attracting

masses. Thus 5th lord and 5th house have malefic aspects and associations. This shows

many conflicts of mind. This shows he was a skeptic in initial stages of his life. He would

question all rituals and even would not go to temple. His parents couldn’t convince him to



42

take him to a temple. This is shown by the conflicts of 5th lord. Also due to various planetary

influences on 5th lord, he got into yoga and meditation and became famous through that. He

preaches bhutashuddhi. This can be due to the influence of Saturn over the 5th lord mars,

making him attain siddhis related to body.

Mercury is at the border of the house and in bhava moves from 9th to 10th house. Thus it

makes 3 planets in 10th house as well. This made him establish ashram and have a following

of people. This we see in the life of JaggiVasudev. Also as there are 3 planets in the

10thhouse, he has being doing so many actions. Built many ashrams, temples and given

many discourses, taken people on many pilgrimages. Has one ashram he runs near

Coimbatore. He himself designed and worked on building the ashram.

9th lord sun is in its own house and 10th lord mercury in 9th house and in bhava is in 10th

house. So he has worked for established of institutions and ashrams. He has done lot of

activities for the welfare of people, like planting sapplings, preaching worldwide, conducting

yoga classes, building house for the poor etc.

The 12th house is afflicted by Saturn and mars. So the person will do lot of activities on

spiritual path.

One of the most important yogas in the chart which might have brought him world wide

fame both in the east and the west is amala yoga. From moon 10th house has two

beneficsvenus and Jupiter. Due to this combination he became famous on his own accord.

Jupiter which is involved in the yoga is lagna lord indicating that person becomes famous

with his efforts. As Jupiter stands for guru and knowledge, he is like a guru to many people.

Venus is the 6th lord in the 10th house, so he shall face many oppositions from people.

Venus also stands for females.

Now rahudasa is running and rahu being in the 11th house, has given him wide fame.

Rahuaspecting the 5thhouse, has made him display his siddhis and attract masses. In rahu

now the sub dasa of venus is going on. Venus gives him amala yoga also. Hence lot of name

and fame he got since recent times. Before rahu, in mars dasha he had consecrated

dhyanalinga. Mars is the 5th lord in 9th house. 5th lord stands for sankalpa and 9th for guru.

So his guru’s desire of dhyaanalinga was completed. He also built ashram during the mars



43

dasha. This is due to mars being in the 9th house. He started preaching yoga and conducting

classes at various places in the same dasha.

Now currently Saturn being the 2nd lord is exalted in the 11th house. Hence people are

coming to listen to his words and he is getting name and fame.

He is yogi who has attained siddhi’s due to his past good deeds and is using them for the

benefit of the world. Hence he is called a mystic as he enjoys his siddhis and is like a normal

human being. Generally people are less inclined towards studying sastras and following the

traditional way of learning and practicing. People in the modern world, do not have time for

anything as they are so much focuses outside and they seek immediate relief to their

problems. They want short cuts for all problems. Some solace and peace of mind is enough

for them, rather than the ultimate goal. They are happy with temporary relief. Thus

Jaggivasudev caters to the needs of these kinds of people. Saturn and mars aspecting 12th

house shows that people who come to him will not be seeking moksha or will not be true

seekers on the path, but people who just need some mental peace temporarily. The kind of

crowd who have attained success in materialistic life and looking for some mental peace will

approach him.

So this can be described as a chart of a siddha, a yogi and a mystic. Whether he is a

realized soul or not is left to the readers discrimination.



44

Predictions for Modi’s Government

Narendramodi is all set to be country’s 15th prime minister. His swearing in ceremony is on

26th May at 6p.m. Based on the time of oath taking, let us see what are the future prospects

of the new government. How stable will be the government and how much beneficial to the

public and will MrModi, meet all his dreams and wishes of the people who voted him to

power?

The challenges the government might face and all such other questions we can analyse

from the gochara chart below, prepared based on the time of oath taking ceremony of

MrModi.

Chart

Span of the Government

Saturn is exalted and is in lagna, Which gives long life to the government. It may complete

its full tenure. 8th lord is venus and is in Kendra as well. So strong 8th lord and Saturn as



45

well as lagna lord venus position in kendras, will assure a completion of tenure to the

government led by Modi.

Functioning of Government

7th lord mars which stands for relations is in 12th house of losses. This shows the coalition

partners support will not be there much. There will be strain in his relations with other

parties. This is very well seen as jayalalitha refused to attend the swearing in ceremony, as

Sri Lankan leader was invited for the same. So already the opposition started with the

partners.

The 2nd house of family is also in 12th house.Modi government shall also see internal rifts in

his ownparty members. Many people within the party may not support Modi in his

governance or there can be strong opposition from within itself.

8th lord venus is in the 7th house. 8th lord shows troubles in relations. So his government

will also have some troubles. Modi will have to face lot of troubles in relations with parties

and people.

After 2 years problems due to partners, rifts andenemies will surface. At that time Jupiter

comes to 12 from lagna. This indicates loss of power. Modi has to go through difficult times,

But he may overcome all problems as lagna lord and lagna are strong. Saturn the

yogakaraka in lagna, due to his tapas will overcome all problems.

Financial aspects

11th lord sun is in 8th house.11th house stands for desires and it is in the house of obstacles

i.e 8th house, So all his desires may not be fulfilled. All his dreams may not come true. He

may not keep up all his promises. 11th house also means finances. So the government may

not be able to provide good financial markets to the country. The investors and

businessmen may not be happy with his policies.

Many of the financial decisions taken by the government may not help the country as the 8th

lord is in 7thHouse. Litigation problems may come due to planet in 8th house. Legal cases

may be there against him.



46

There are two zero’s in ashtakavarga. One for moon and one in venus. Due to this,

expected to face problems during the stars of kartikka, rohini ,mrigasira every month. For

2.25 days, he will land in problems, due to opinion differences among the party

people.Necessary propitiation should be done during these days to avoid the evil effects.

Luck and Dharma

9th lord mercury is in 9th.So he will be lucky and come out of all problems.

Jupiter is in 9th, so he will follow dharma. He will oppose corruption. He won’t take to wrong

ways of ruling. He won’t take wrong decisions or policies which go against dharma.

People and Ruling

Moon and venus in 7th is good but 8th lord in 7, so he will face lot of problems. May not be

smooth governance. But as benefics are in 7th so it will help people.

Jupiter is aspectingthe 5th house so his people his government will be protected and

country will be benefitted. This is due to the Grace of the Guru.

He shall face lot of worries, tensions and mind problems as moon is afflicted by saturn, ketu

and rahu. As rahu is in lagna, people may try to put his name in some scam.

Now for one yr, when Jupiter is exalted a lot of good work for the country he shall do. He

will be very daring.

Sun in 8th means problems due to improper use of power. He may be taking daring steps,

so others may protest. He may not get much support for his power or may not be able to

excise much power with others.

2nd lord in 12th and 11th lord in 8th, may not bring financial success to the government.

Before the end of his tenure, he may resign as PM, but his party will continue in power. This

is due to 8th lord in 7th.

Currently the dasa running for MrModi government is Venus period. Venus is in a strong

location in 7th house. He shall passionately work towards the development of nation. He will

face oppositions and troubles but will still continue.



47

The Time of the oat taking ceremony is very powerful. Saturn which is the yogakaraka is

exalted in lagna, hence it’s very beneficial. Modi government will do well , though there can

be some challenges in government and shall complete tenure. We wish success to the new

Prime ministers and his cabinet ministers.

Transition Effects of Jupiter

As per current gochara Jupiter or Brihaspathi as it is called is going to move into Cancer

rasi. This is a position of exaltation for the planet. This is most favourable position for

Kidney’s, digestive system, father, Guru.

house, 11th house and lagna.

Lagna lord is exalted, so person will become more decisive this year. He will be able to take

strong stands. Native experiences guru’s grace this year. There can be mind fluctuations

with respect to decision making as lagna lord is in 5th house.

10th lord is exalted, so power at work and name and fame will come. As 10th lord is in 5th

house, so more advisory roles the person shall do. More work tensions are felt.

Wealth, children, name and fame etc shall come to the native.

Time for developing devotion towards the Guru. More mantra Japa has to be done this year,

to get more favourable results.

Jupiter aspects the 9th house. So the native’s father will prosper or see good things

happening this year. This brings guru’s grace as well.

Good financial inflows will happen this year. Auspicious ceremonies can take place in the

family.

It’s favourable time for the natives of this lagna/rasi.

Thus we see that this year favours the lagna/rasi where Jupiter is well placed than in other

houses. Saturn currently is in thula and shall aspect cancer. So when Jupiter moves to

cancer, it will be aspected by Saturn until Nov this year. The effects of the same should be

judged from the individual charts. After Nov Jupiter will not be under the aspect of Saturn

and shall shower all the positive results.

But it is a good year as the bad results of Jupiter not well placed in some charts, as per

gochara, will not be much as Jupiter is exalted. So overall good results will prevail for many

people on an average.
