I looked at the description of Gandanta in several articles on the web. But i would like to know the effects of Gandanta?
Are effects of gandata limitted to childhood or they will show effect even when they are adults?
What happens if venus (as 4 or 5th lord) is in Gandanta and is vargothamma?

Re: what is Gandanta?
Good day to you,
If any graha is located in the last 3 degree 20 of Ashlesha ,Jyeshtha and Revati and the first 3 degree 20 of Ashvini, Magha and Mula then that graha is subjected to Gandanta. Classic texts suggests that Grahas located at these points are weak and afflicted.
So why does this happen ?
Let us take Cancer and leo. One is a watery sign and the other a fiery sign. to make matters worse, Ashlesha end in Cancer and Magha starts in Leo. thus the strength of a juncture point is weakened and is ill defined due to the forced intermingling of two different energies. This is a zone of transition between two energies and are thus considered potentially weak.

I was wondering do we need to do any special pooja for gandata? We did not do any when he was a baby as we don't know about this gandata. Please let me know.
Re: what is Gandanta?
Anusugu 123,
Shukra is sufficiently strong in Shadbala and is Vargothama. I don't think Shukra is that weak. I don't know of any specific pooja to strengthen a Gandanta planet.

This is for my learning: Your Sat MD is almost half over. how was it so far? especially 2001-2004.
two planets are in borders. i believe bhava chalit will also need to be considered. good thing is your Sadesathi will happen in Mer MD.

Re: what is Gandanta?
I have a question. I think Sunds has saturn in gandanta and is also debilitated but vakri. Being in gandanta and then being debilitated makes it double weak but will vakri make it very strong?

Generally, when a planet is vakri it gets a lot of chesta bala which as you know is one of the shadbalas. So one can say that when a debilitated planet is vakri it gets certain amount of redemption , but wont make it very strong as in say exaltation or swakshetra. i dont know if Gandanta is considered in computing the balas but i believe it is infact a very important factor in giving results.

Thanks Kandhan, seems good answer to me.
You were not seen for some time esp during India Pak match. May be u were totally immersed in it and are trying to come out of it just now on.

Re: what is Gandanta?
Yes Kandan, I too. Howmuch ever u believe astrology, when it is India Pak match and u have a score of just 260 that too after a solid start, it is natural for one to lose hopes. I too lost hopes initially.

Sani Dasha started of with a big bang....Infact, I got a very good job in Raymonds within a week of my sani dasha start.Sani dasha-Shani Bhukti ,I was in raymonds....Beginning Mercury bhukti,I left raymond and then there has been severe trouble.So I am not sure if sani is personally being bad to me or are the bhukti lords attacking me.

Re: what is Gandanta?
The only exception to Gandanta comes Via vargothama Navamsha for Gandanta points between Meena and Mesha , ie the last 3deg20 of Meena and the first 3deg20 of Mesha . No other gandanta points offer such support . I do not say that it is much ....... But whatever little support you get ....... does not hurt

Re: what is Gandanta?
My Jupiter is in Moola -1 Gandanta at 00:36 in Saggi in 8th house.
Is this the worst kind of Gandanta of all 3?
Will my upcoming Jupiter Antar in Jan 2016 be good or bad?
24-12-83, 16:20, 21:46 N, 72.11 E.
Thank you!

Re: what is Gandanta?
When we say some technical words pertaining to ancient beautiful language, one should always concentrate on Nirukta! The etymology. It simply clears all the doubts from root. This also one the limb of Vedaanga.
Gandaanta = Ganda+Anta. Ganda is the knot, Antam/Anta is the end. So, Gandaanta means Knot at the end. The word Gandaka means separation. Ganda can also be understood as joint/bone/goitre depending on the context.
I found Komilla Sutton Ji's article on Gandaanta to be vivid & interesting. Here's the link: https://komilla.com/lib-gandanta.html
Do read it.
It occurs at junction between fire water transition. Interestingly Jupiter is in Gandaanta right now. This is a rarest Gandaanta occurs for Jupiter. Guru will be in Gandaanta for several days.
