you are more likely to get a response if you posted in the reading charts forum. This part is for discussion of astrology and not readings in particular.

Khoo Sir,

Thankyou for youro reply.

Regarding the strengths, I assume when you say 'good signs' you mean signs that belong to the lords friends. Is this assumption correct?

If the above is correct, then may I ask whether you use 'permanent relationships' or 'compound relationships' (names based ...

Khoo sir,

Excellent thread with a lot of information. I'm going through it carefully to comb every last word!

I have a some questions:

First, from the very start of the thread you speak of "strength of xxx lord". I realise this is complex (considering a lord's strength is dependent on its ...

please read the last two posts carefully

Astroboy,

I have come across an article that says that there are obstacles for the number of years a planet will stay retrograde. For instance, if in a chart, saturn is ...

So,
Do you mean to say that Retrograde Saturn doesn't play a major role in case of Exhalted or Yogakaraka?

Apart from this,
I have one more thing to get clarified?
Well placed Gochar Saturn or Sade Sathi effects depends on how well it is placed in the Birth chart
or does it always result into ...

Sandeep,

I do not believe so. I have been unable to find an authentic source that mentions what you stated. I am aware that many people say so but I have not come across a chart where this is obvious either.

It really depends on what house the graha owns. For instance, if the 6th lord is ...

Retrogradation generally means the result (whether benefic or malefic) is delayed. The scriptures also state that it is unfulfilled desires/results from a previous life. The quality is determined by various characteristics in the chart, generalization is not useful.

If a natal graha is retrograde ...

swagger,

hans mahapurush is when just Ju is present in kendra and exalted or in own house. If conjunct with sun/moon it is just hans yoga. hamsa yoga makes a person very spiritual.If Jupiter is retrograde, obstacles in the same is seen.

as far as the effects are concerned, it would make more sense ...

just like when calculating AK Rahu,s longtiude is calculated by subtracting from 30.

so Rahu is about 28deg 41 minutes.
the degrees must be used, when the planet conjuncting with Rahu is not clearly strong or Malefic.
However in your case sun is in friendly house of Me and Me is 12th from it ...

Shilpaji,

I have been looking for employment for a few months now. And nothing I have done seems to work. The reason I was asking about Rahu is in my horoscope, He is conjunct Su in both rasi and navamsa. in Rasi Su represents 10th lord and in navamsa he is 7th lord. Initially i thought it was sade ...

1)when Rahu is standalone you must look at the Nk lordship of Rahu primarly .
2)when Rahi is conjunct you must look at the strength of the planet that it conjuncts in that house.
3)the own house rulership is almost tertiarty in my view...there is too much debate about whihc houses it rules and ...

you will most likely have to go through 4 sadhe sati periods in your life in contrast to other people who generally have to face 2-3 Sadhe Sati periods in life. :roll:
Actually I do not believe this is the case. 4 sade sati = 120 years ! So very unlikely.

If you were born at the very start of ...

I've started this topic to consolidate the various views i've seen on other topics regarding the characteristics of a spouse based on ones own chart. It would be nice if we could have a discussion and elaborate on the reasons why some things are so.

One common thing I've seen in many topics is that ...

ah i see.. if he is in yugma rasi then his own yugma rasi will be dominant, if he is in oja, the oja will be the dominant of the 2.
thankyou sir

Hi p.mahesh
I can tell you what is being followed by astrologers from Kerala (India).
Let us take eg: given by you ,ie: Saturn as 2nd and 3rd lord.
This happen when Lagna is Dhanu.
Then the 2nd house is a YUGMA rasi and the 3rd house is a OJA rasi.
Now see where Saturn is placed in the horoscope ...

My understanding is that the planets DO give their effects, however, until maturity their effects can be erratic. So their effects would be more predictable I would imagine after maturity. If someone with more knowledge could confirm/correct me that would be good

Shilpaji,

In page 1 , you said..


a)If the conjunction planet is stronger than rahu throuhg strength in that Rasi/ house or degree....then Rahu complements the positive side of that planet.


if Rahu is at 1 Ge 18' 39.49" and sun is at 3 Ge 06' 06.64" both Ra and Su being in 8th house, would you ...

--never count on neechabhanga too much.
a neecha planet is reduced to zero % power.
thene there are so many possible conditions listed in classics that and every one of those conditions fullfilled probably gives 1 or 2 or a few small percents % of power.

so even with several neecha bhanga ...

dunno.....can't visualize, post the chart


Dear Shilpaji,

here are the details pertaining to the chart I was asking you the question on. I would be grateful if you could highlight some of the good/not so good things about the chart in aspects such as health, marriage and wealth.

I would ...

[quote="shilpa"][/quote]

Dear Shilpa ji,

in an earlier page you mentioned that Ra/Ke will take on the properties of the graha it is conjunct (or the nakshatra in which it is placed). This being the case, what is the effect of rahu conjunct sun in 8th house (gemini - i believe it is exalted here ...

Dear Nina ji & others,

I have started to believe that "love marriage" has no such combination. Because in the west, there is (almost) no concept of arranged marriages, all marriages/relationships are based on "love" (even though it is more likely to be physical attraction).

I think jyotish can ...

Dear Shrikantji,

I'm a bit confused. Since the OP hasn't posted birth details or mentioned which house Ju owns, I was confused. Are you saying Ju is always bad in 1st house?

I used to believe Ju in 1st house is great because he aspects 5 7 and 9 (and 1) with positive effects. Is this not correct?
