The Five Equations of V A Horary
The Five Equations, the Pancha Maha Sutras, are the major equations upon which Horary Astrology is built.
In Medical Astrology, the planets rule the five great elements
Element Planet Equation
Earth is ruled by Mercury Prithvi Sutra
Water Venus Jala Sutra
Fire Mars Agni Sutra
Air Saturn Vayu Sutra
Ether Jupiter Akasha Sutra
We have already dealt with the combinations of the three Sutras, viz Jeeva, Roga and Mrithyu.
Jeeva Sutra is Positive
Mrithyu Sutra is Negative
Roga Sutra is neutral
Our Horary Software gives the results as Jeeva, Mrityu and Roga and from the result, you can prognosticate !
Earth Element Formula ( Prithvi Sutra - Mercury - Flesh Skin Bone )
If Prithvi Sutra is Mrityu and if Mercury is badly positioned
in Horary Chart- destruction of cattle- dissipation of tissue
element (Dhatu) ruled by Mercury and all Signs ruled by him -
increase of enemies -enmity from kith and kin - diseases due
to Flesh Bone & Skin - loss of happiness etc- deficiency in the
Earth Element in the body physiologic in Medical Astrology.
This is the Mercurian Equation.
Water Element Formula ( Jala Sutra - Venus - Blood Urine Semen )
If Jala Sutra is Mrityu and if Venus is badly positioned
in Horary Chart- destruction of cattle- dissipation of tissue
element (Dhatu) ruled by Venus & all Signs ruled by him -
increase of enemies -enmity from kith and kin - diseases
due to the water principle - blood urine and semen- defici-
ency in the Water Element in the body physiologic in Medical
Astrology. This is the Venusian Equation.
Fire Element Formula ( Agni Sutra - Mars - Fire - Thirst Sleep )
If Agni Sutra is Mrityu and if Mars is badly positioned
in Horary Chart- destruction of cattle- dissipation of tissue
element (Dhatu)- ruled by Mars & all Signs ruled by him -
increase of enemies - real estate battles - fear of enemies-
fear of government - mental tension - destruction of everything
held dear - enmity from kith and kin - diseases due to
fire and lack of Ojas- deficiency in the Fire Element in the
body physiologic in Medical Astrology. This is the Martian Equation.
Air Element Formula ( Vayu Sutra - Saturn - Air - Movement )
If Vayu Sutra is Mrityu and if Saturn is badly positioned
in Horary Chart- destruction of cattle- dissipation of tissue
element (Dhatu)- ruled by Saturn & all Signs ruled by him -
increase of enemies -enmity from kith and kin - diseases
due to Wind (Vata) - epilepsy - lack of appetite - pox -
fear of low minded enemies - loss in agriculture - legal
battles pertaining to wealth etc - deficiency in the
Air Element in the body physiologic in Medical Astrology.
This is the Saturnine Equation.
Ether Element Formula (Akasha Sutra -Jupiter -Ether -Likes Dislikes)
If Akasha Sutra is Mrityu and if Jupiter is badly positioned
in Horary Chart- destruction of cattle- dissipation of tissue
element (Dhatu) ruled by Jupiter & all Signs ruled by him -
increase of enemies -enmity from kith and kin - destruction
of wealth - health hazards - diseases due to Phlegm or Vasa
and problems from children - deficiency in the Ether Element

Medical Astrology Horary Tips
If the Query in Horary Astrology is about disease
Find out in the Horary Chart where Ascendant ( Lagna ) or Base Ascendant ( Aroodha ) is and counted from Aries ( which is the head of the Zodiacal Man ), say where the disease is
The First House represents the Head and the Twelfth House is the feet of the Cosmic Man. Aries His Head, Taurus His Face and Pisces His feet. If the Aroodha or Udaya ( find out which is more powerful) is say the 6th House, you can safely predict disorders of the digestive tract. ( Papa Shashta gatha tada Udara rujam ). If the Aroodha or Udaya is Virgo !

Malefics in Upachayas are good ( in 3,6,10,11 houses )
Natural malefics or fiery planets like Mars, Saturn, Rahu, Ketu & Sun are good in 3,6,10,11 houses. ( Upachaya samstha Papah ).
Natural benefics in 1,4,7,10,5,9,2,11 are good ( Soumya Kendra trikona dhana bhavagah ).
Take for instance, the Nodes of the Moon, Rahu & Ketu. They are excellent in 3,6,10 & 11 houses. The late PM of India, Mrs Gandhi, had Rahu in the 6th and Ketu in the 12th, forming a Kubera Yoga. Rahu in the Sixth destroyed enemies and gave a regal life ( Shashta sthane satru vinasakaree .. ) . So did Ketu in the 12th ( Sada raja yogam naram sad vyayam tat ).
Natural Benefics like Jupiter, Mercury & Venus are good in angles and trines. Angular Jupiter destroys a lakh or 100,000 afflictions ( Laksham Doshan Hanti Devendra Poojya ). Angular Venus destroys 50,000 afflictions, they say ( Kendram Prapya Daithya Mantree tad ardham ). Angular Mercury, devoid of bad associations destroys 25,000 afflictions ! ( Veeryopetha Somaputras thad ardham )

Horocospe Analysis Tips
The Ascendant Lord
He is the most important planet, as the Asc ( Ascendant ) rules fame and personality. If he be in a quadrant or a trine, he is well placed and the native will have good reputation and a pleasing personality. It is Sarvam Vilagnepi Chintayeth - everything is based on Lagna. So the most important point is the Ascending Degree, the Lagna Sphuta.
If he be placed badly in the trika or evil 6,8,12 houses, the native will have health hazards.
The Two Lagnas or Ascendants
The Moon Sign or Lunar Ascendant is equally powerful as Lagna or Asc. It is Lagnam va chandra lagnam va.
If the Lunar Asc is more powerful than the Asc, then you can predict from the Lunar Asc or Chandra Lagna.
There are some who take the Solar Asc, that is the Sun Sign, but this is rarely used, the normal practice being taking from Lagna ( Asc ) or Chandra Lagna ( Lunar Asc )

BHAVA BALA OR HOUSE STRENGTH
Bhava means house & Bala means strength. Bhava bala is the potency or strength of the house or signification. We have already seen that there are 12 bhavas which comprehend all human events. Each bhava signifies or indicates certain events or functions. For instance the First Bhava indicates Thanu or body the appearance of the individual his complexion his stature etc. If it attains certain strength the native will enjoy the indications of the bhava fully otherwise he will not sufficiently enjoy them. The strength of the bhava is composed of three factors:
1. Bhavadhipathi Bala - Aggregate Shad Bala of the lord of the house
2. Bhava Digbala - Strength acquired by Bhavas falling in Signs.
3. Bhava Dristi Bala - Strength of Bhava aspected by planets.
In the table produced below Bhava Digbala is indicated by DIG and
Bhavadhipathi Bala by OWN. The rest is Bhava Dristi Bala. VJU means
the Visesha Drishti of Jupiter VMA the Visesha Drishti of Mars &
VSA the Visesha Drishti of Saturn.TOT means the total points earned
by a Bhava and RUP means the strength in Rupas ( 60 shastiamsas ).
For the analysis of wealth we have to scrutinise 2 9 10 & 11 houses.
Now in order to know how much the native will have we will have to
evaluate strength of these bhavas. This is where Bhava Bala comes
into action. Not only for ascertaining wealth but for ascertaining
other important Bhavas like Fortune ( 9th Bhava ) Health ( Lagna
Bhava and Longevity ( 8th Bhava ) Bhava Bala has got paramount
significance.

Ishta & Kashta Phalas
A planet with more Ishta Phala is inclined to do good & be a benefic
during its Dasa and Bhukti periods while a planet with more Kashta
Phala is inclined to be adverse during its Dasa Bhukti periods.
Hence during prognostication the Ishta & Kashta points of planets
are taken into consideration.
When the Kashta predominates over the Ishta a bad period is indicated.Miseries and suffering will be the result. On the other hand if Ishta points are more beneficial results can be indicated. If the strength of a Dasa lord predominates over that of the Bhukti lord then the results to be obtained during the Bhukti in question will be that indicated by the Dasa lord who if he has more Ishta Phala will produce more of beneficial effects. The results of Dasas and Bhuktis have to be judged very carefully by a judicious estimate of planetary strengths.

Wealth Ascendant or Dhana Lagna
We are giving the definition of Dhana Lagna in poetic form.
In assessing a person's wealth, the Wealth Ascendant is considered. If the Wealth Asc lord is powerful, it signifies wealth. If you can enhance the W A lord, you can overcome all obstacles and hindrances that block the accumulation of wealth !
Wealth Factors governing Horoscopy
The lords of Two Five Nine Eleven
Rule wealth; Six Eight Twelve lords
Cause ruin & misery; they generate
Fear of enemies during their reign!
The Rays of the Ninth Lords from Asc & Luna
Add these two to get the Total Ray Strength
Take remainder from Twelve; Sign from Moon
That Sign is Dhana Lagna or Wealth Asc called !
Of wealth beyond the dreams of Avarice know
Wealthy the native becomes based on strength
Of Dhana Lagna; if it be powerful and benign
Result is positive; else predict Negativity!
If Wealth Ascendant is tenanted by benefics
Millionaire the native becomes; or if a malefic
Choose to occupy Ascendant Wealth a lakhier;
Again a millionaire if the malefic be exalted!
Satellites of Major Planets
In Indian Astrology each planet has a satellite of its own.For instance Phobos and Deimos of Mars are called as Dhooma & Mrityu in Indian science. The longitudes of satellites of VenusMoon Mars Rahu & Ketu are calculated based on the sidereal longitude of the Sun.
PLANET SATELLITE METHOD OF COMPUTATION
Mars Dhooma Sun's longitude + 133 deg 20 mins
Rahu Vyatipata 360- Dhooma's longitude
Moon Parivesh 180 + Vyatipata's longitude
Venus Indrachapa 360 - Parivesh's longitude
Ketu Upaketu Indrachapa + 16 deg 40 mins
A different method of calculation is adopted for the satellitesof Sun Jupiter Saturn Mercury & Mars. Days and nights are divi-ded into 8 divisions.
The first division is ruled by the lord of the day & other divi-sions are given to the other lords in sequential order. Duringnight the first lord is the fifth lord from the lord of the day.
In order to measure the longitudes of satellites two differentmethods have been adopted.In the first method the beginning time of the planet who holds absolute sway is taken. In the other method the end time is taken.The Lagna is computed for this timeand this is how the longitude of the satellite is computed.
To compute Gulika's longitude a third method has been adopted.The rising time of Gulika is charted out for each day and thesphuta or longitude computed is labelled as Mandi or Gulika.

The Sixfold Strength in Astrology
SHAD BALAS OR SIXFOLD SOURCE OF PLANETARY STRENGTH
Shad bala means the sixfold source of planetary strength. Thereare six kinds of potency in the Parasari System. They are :
1. Sthana Bala - Positional Strength
2. Dig Bala - Directional Strength
3. Kala Bala - Temporal Strength
4. Chesta Bala - Motional Strength
5. Naisargika Bala - Intrinsic Strength
6. Drik Bala - Aspectual Strength
Application of Shad Balas
When we say a planet is strong or a House or Bhava is strong, how can it be measured ? The strength and weakness of planets and Bhavas are computed using Shad Balas. So the importance osf the Shad Bala system in the wisdom of the heavens cannot be overemphasised.
In deciding Dasa effects, the first period is attributed to the most powerful Force - the Asc, Sun or Moon. How do we know who is more powerful. By the Shad Bala method !
Shad Balas are measured in shastiamsas or units of 60. 60 shastiamsas make a Rupa.
Dasa or Period of Directional Influence
According to Indian Astrology inevitable effects are to be judged from dasa as per the dictum " Dasa prabhedena Vichinthayeth Dridam". Astrology is based on the Universal Law of Cause and Effect called by the philosophers as the Law of Karma. Planets have got dualistic role and always the negative aspect of the ruling planet must be taken into consideration and divine remedial measures must be resorted to overcome the minus points of the dasa ruler.
Dasa is translated as the period of directional influence of the ruling planet. Philosophically dasa represents the prarabda karma of the native and the inevitable effects he has to undergo during the planet's reign.

The Ashtakavarga System in Astrology
Ashtakavarga is defined as a collective factor, which sets going as a result of the progression of the Seven Revolving Heavens. A planet throws out favourable beams of influence on certain places, favourable from the planet's position and from other planet's positions. Such favourable beams contributed by the seven revolving heavens acts as a catalytic agent agumenting both directional and transit influences.
It can be defined as vitality assessment of a horoscope.
A planet is said to become highly benefic if he secures in his own Ashtakavarga more than 5 bindus. A planet having less than 4 bindus will affect the bhava it is in adversely. Similarly in total or Sarvashtavarga if a sign attains more than 30 bindus it becomes highly benefic and any sign getting less than 25 bindus becomes malefic.

Mars - Sun Opposition
Mars and Sun are considered to be natural malefics in Indian Astrology. On Dec 18/19, Mars opposes the Sun in the heavens.
The path of Mars is elliptical and not circular and the distance will be 54.8 million miles from the Earth. Mars at perihelion is 35 million miles and 63 million miles at Aphelion. On that day, Sun, Mars and the Earth will lie in a straight line.
This astronomical phenemenon, we all know, and what are its repercussions in Mundane Astrology ?
Such an opposition is malefic, according to the classical texts. But Jupiter is in Sagittarius, opposing Mars and his benefic aspect falls on Mars in Gemini. This tempers the evil effects of the Sun-Mars opposition
Mars in Gemini aspects the 4th house ( Virgo ) as well as the 8th ( Capricorn ). His seventh aspect falls on Sagittarius.
India, US, Pakistan Brazil, Syria, Albania, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, France, Hungary, Italy - all these are countries ruled by the abovementioned signs. So it is only natural that these countries will be adversely affected by the Sun- Mars opposition.
Prices in India will rise. The Govt's projection of 5% inflation is not real. Prices of essential food items have gone up considerably. Cotton, gold, red chillies, copper, oil, mustard, real estate, shares - all these will go up. But Jupiter's aspect will see to that the evil of inflation is kept under check. In US, the dollar is also badly hit. Subprime woes have not subsided. Pakistan is undergoing a political crisis. Problems also in Afghanistan and Bangladesh

The Theory of Kakshyas
Each Zodiacal Sign of 30 is divided by 8 and we get 3 degrees and 45 minutes. This 3 degrees 45 minutes of arc is known as a Kakshya.
Each Kakshya of 3 degrees and 45 minutes or 1/8 th of a Sign has different rulers. Sequentially, they are Saturn, Jupiter, Sun, Venus, Mercury, Moon and the Lagna.
In its transit of a Zodiacal Sign, each planet has to pass through each Kakshya in the above order.
Now Jupiter is transiting Sagittarius and now is in the First Kakshya, ruled by Saturn.

Astro Genetics
Genetics is the science of Heredity. In Astrology, we observe that the laws of Genetics do operate. We find that the horoscopes of children have some traits of their parent's horscopes !
I was astonished to see that in the horoscope of my son, Jupiter is angular. So it is in my daughter's horoscope. In mine, he is in Cancer, in the Ascendant and angular. Angular Jupiter is considered to foster spirituality.
So we find that two great sciences, Astrology and Genetics combine to form Astro-Genetics !

The Three Elarata Saturns !
One Saturnine cycle is 7.5 years, that is, he stays in a Zodiacal Sign for 2.5 years, or one degree per month. In 3 Zodical Signs, viz in the 12th, 1st and 2nd, he causeth the 7.5 year Saturnine cycle called Elarata Saturn.
In a human life span, he causes ES thrice, as his sidereal period is 30 years.
The first Elarata Saturn is called Mangum Sani or Depressing Saturn.
The second E S is called Pongum Sani or Rising Saturn.
The third ES is called Pokku Sani or Going Saturn.
The first ES is bad, as he can devastate. The first ES caught me when I was 18 years old. Till 25.5 years, he was ruling and he made me suffer horribly. There was Sthanabramsam, as I had to leave Kochi, where I was studying. I left for Bombay in search of a job.
Now I am undergoing the second ES, which is good professionally, but is full of tension.
The second ES is paradoxical. It will elevate a man professionally, but will create tension in his psyche. It will affect his physique and psyche adversely. It will devastate his purse also. ( Dhanakshyam ).

Sri Ram’s Horoscope & the Preservation of Astrological Knowledge
Published by Thea, 2 weeks, 2 days ago
An exchange between Patrizia Norelli-Bachelet (Thea), President of Aeon Trust and Director of Aeon Centre of Cosmology in southern India, and SaiSrinivasan, Executive Officer, Hindu Religious and Charitable Endowments Administration Department of Government of Tamil Nadu [1] and Trustee of Aeon Trust.
SaiSrinivasan: I have reproduced here the horoscope of Sri Ram from a book which I have with me. In fact my father was worshiping Sri Ram’s horoscope in his pooja room.
First house – Sun, Mercury.
Second –
Third – Kethu.
Fourth – Lagnam, Jupiter, Moon.
Fifth –
Sixth –
Seventh – Saturn
Eighth –
Nineth – Rahu
Tenth – Mars
Eleventh –
Twelveth – Venus.
The month is Chitra, Nakshatra is Punarvasu and Zodiacal sign Cancer according to Valmiki Ramayana. But the dates differ now because of Nirayana. . . .
Patrizia Norelli-Bachelet: Yes, Sai, this is correct, this is the horoscope that is given out as Sri Ram’s, but of course it is not his actual horoscope. Nonetheless, it is interesting because daily your father was worshiping the sacred art of astrology through this horoscope, though it was not Ram’s, and doing his part to preserve the ancient Knowledge even without realising it. It was the chart as of the IDEAL MAN that the 7th Avatar incarnated, hence Ram was the best channel for this ‘ideal’ preservation. To illustrate: the Sun is in Aries (Chitra) which is its EXALTATION . . . . Thus, they are in the 3rd and 9th in Ram’s chart as well. The important sign/house is the fourth, Cancer, and this would be interesting for those Dakshinamurthy temples, giving the proof of the EXALTATION OF JUPITER IN CANCER, the fourth sign of the tropical zodiac, the ’south’ Cardinal Point. It is ruled by the Moon, and so they locate the Moon in that sign/house also. Since it is considered his ‘lagna’ or ascendant, they read it as being his birth sign, and not where the Sun is found (Aries), as we do today, but rather Cancer. It is of course interesting that Cancer is the last sign of his descent as the 7th Avatar. The 7th Manifestation of Ram, according to my Map of the 12 Manifestations [2], would consist of the signs Virgo, Leo and Cancer. Then the hand of the Time-Spirit moves on to start the 8th Manifestation of Krishna and the first sign met is Gemini. (This is all according to the Precession of the Equinoxes which moves BACKWARD through the zodiac. See The Gnostic Circle for all details. [3]) For me this sign of the twins, Gemini, is really Luv and Kush, Ram and Sita’s twin sons. They carried the legend of Ram throughout the land it is said. You could say they prepared the way for Krishna’s appearance 6000 years after Ram in the 8th Manifestation. The Twins opened the way and Gemini, the sign of the Twins, indicates their part in the Descent. They appear in this way as the carry-over from Ram’s appearance to Krishna’s, 7th to 8th, with Gemini, the Twins as the bridge. How beautiful. How coherent. . . . To continue:
– Saturn is located in Libra, the 7th sign/house, and that is Saturn’s EXALTATION
– Mars is located in the tenth sign/house which is Capricorn its EXALTATION
– Venus is located in the twelfth sign/house, Pisces, where it is in EXALTATION.
So, you see, this is clear proof that Ram’s horoscope was only to preserve the knowledge of the signs, rulership and exaltations, which is the basic structure of astrology and what needs to be preserved in times of darkness and attacks. Every planet is in EXALTATION or RULERSHIP. By making it Ram’s ‘horoscope’, it was assured that his devotees, such as your father, would help to preserve the Knowledge down the ages by means of his daily worship. Obviously to actually believe that this was the configuration of the heavens at the time of his birth is to miss the point entirely. But this is an example of just how completely the Knowledge had been lost. No one realised the truth! Researchers continue today to try and ferret out when in aeons gone by the heavens reflected this arrangement so as to know the date of Ram’s birth! Of course that never happened. They have missed such an obvious point! What a beautiful example this has been . . .
By the way . . . this is conclusive proof that the Tropical Zodiac and NOT the Nakshatras has been the system all along. For as long as this ‘horoscope’ of Ram’s has been circulating, it has been the Sayana system. Everything I have indicated in my analysis of the chart was entirely with the Tropical Zodiac. There is no Nakshatra business at all involved. In fact, with the Nirayana system you would not be able to understand what Ram’s horoscope really means. All the rulerships, exaltations, and so forth, are properties of the Tropical Zodiac. My Lord, what a mess India is in. This Niryana deviation has brought a terrible darkness to prevail . . . Thea

Jupiter in Sag
Jove in Sagittarius is not a good factor for India, as he is in the 6th, an unfavourable house. Since he is the financial planet, India will be affected financially. Debt and deficit are on the rise, despite the 9% GDP growth.
Crude hovering over the 95 dollar mark, the sub prime crisis in the US, the general slowing down of the US market, the fall of all Asian markets - all these negative factors will affect India.
Jupiter in Scorpio was good for India and the Sensex, considered to be the barometer of the economy, touched 20000 levels. Real Estate also rose, along with construction and financial services.

Horoscopes of Augustus Caesar & Aurobindo
Both were born when Jupiter was exalted in Cancer. Jupiter is the planet of divinity and the person under a powerful Jupiter will revive true Divinity.
In Augustus's horoscope, Libra was rising and Jupiter was in the 10th exalted, conferring Hamsa Yoga, one of the best Yogas in Astrology and one of the five Pancha Maha Purusha Yogas. Jupiter in the 10th is an emperor.
In Aurobindo's horoscope, Jupiter was rising along with Cancer Ascendant. Jupiter in the Ascedant is a Yogi.

Problem on Eastrovedica Server
When I changed www.eastrovedica.com to another server, I am experiencing a new problem. The form for getting the date of birth, time of birth and place is not functioning on this server. Please bear with us.
Those who want to submit can do so via email, stating the time, place and date of birth to info@eastrovedica.com
This is a technical problem as CDonts is not working on this server. The Technical Man informed me that it is oCDOConf which works on this server and not CDonts. So I took it in another method. Anyway, we will get the problem sorted out soon

Upgradation of EastroVedica to 100 MB
Yesterday I upgraded EastroVedica to 100 MB. We changed the server and I had to upload about 1600 files. Pls pardon for the delay. Only for one hour was the site not working yesterday. It did not affect site traffic much. As Internet connectivity was not proper, it was a tough task for me to upload 1000 odd files, but I did it from 0500 PM to 0900 PM, as I wanted the site to be visible. Some images did not fit in properly. I still have some matrimonial files to upload. There were some problems with the earlier server, as files were not uploaded properly. Now we have files to the size of 77 MB. I intend to add more Naturopathy articles to it.
As files were not uploaded on the previous server, I was afraid my monthly forecast files may not be uploaded. Hence the change of server. Now it is faster and better

Jupiter in the Fifth - Sensex at a record 19000!
Jove in the Fifth has created another record, Sensex over 19000!
Traders are now optimistic about 20000 ! It took only 8 sessions to reach 18000 and four sessions to reach 19000! As the scientist pointed out, it is Cash Flow that drives the Sensex and Nifty.
Hope there will be many more records before Jupiter leaves Scorpio !

Forex Reserves cross $ 250 billion - Effect of Jove in Scorpio
Well, Jove in Scorpio has created another record - forex reserves crossing $ 250 billion. There is considerable progress and India is on the way to becoming a global power.
Massive investments are planned in infrastructure, IT, realty, tourism, auto etc. Exports will be $ 150 billion this year. The Sensex is at record levels.
Jupiter has been in Scorpio for the last 10 months and during this phase India has progressed rapidly. The Fifth House is considered to be the Lakshmi Sthana or the House of Prosperity, as the 5th is the 9th from the 9th !
Furthur rise is foreseen and India may become the third economic power by 2050 !

Jupiter in the Lakshmi Sthana
This year has been good for India financially - with some sectors like realty, construction, software, auto, banking, tourism etc - booming. Jove in the House of Prosperity is bringing in $ 700 billion as investment, with $ 180 billion going to manufacturing. Even though imports are up at $ 181 b, federal debt 155 b and deficit at 55 b, the overall atmosphere has brightened up. Jupiter in the Fifth will definitely catapult India in the financial ladder and economists are now talking about India being the third economic power by 2050, behind China and US.
One physicist has postulated that like Heat which makes the mercury in the thermometer go up, so also Cash pushes up the Sensex & Nifty levels ! So true, if we consider that the Sensex is at a record 18600 ! The Sensex is said to be the barometer of the economy. Now economists are saying that the Sensex will up still furthur as cash flow continues into India. Improved relations with the US is another factor. More and more millionaires, billionaires and trillionaires ( in rupees ) are born. Sunil Mittal of Bharti Airtel became India's fourth trillionaire in rupees !
As India upgrades technology, infrastructure, marketing and quality control, she will be a force to reckon with in the global market. Competition from China is healthy and will only bring the best from the Indians !

Effects of Jupiter in the Fifth House for India
An estimated $ 700 billion is coming into India as investment The Sensex hit record levels of 18 K plus. Many sectors - tourism, realty, financial services, software etc - are booming.
Jupiter in the Fifth promotes finance and India is changing fast into an industrial power. She may very well become the third largest economy by 2050.
It is believed that the Sensex will rise furthur. Technical corrections will always be there but since the cash flow into India is high, we can see some record levels !
More FDI is expected to come to India. Even though imports exceed exports, economists foresee a developed India by 2020.
The rise of the 300 million middle class, globalisation, privatisation and liberalisation - all these are the causative factors for India's 9 per cent growth. This growth is only second to China, who is growing at 12%.
Bill Gates said India is a potential software superpower. Now with $ 180 billion coming in as investment in manufacturing, India will progress rapidly.
Jupiter in the Fifth is a great promoter. This reflected even in Sports, when Dhoni's men brought the World T20 Cup and V Anand was crowned the World Chess Champion. Touism, software, realty are all growing rapidly.

TM, must for an astrologer
Transcendental Meditation confers Intuition, which is so necessary for an astrologer.
The Intuitive Mind of the astrologer is at work. After invoking the Central Sun, the Absolute Self, he analyses the heavenly archetype, which is the horoscope. Now his Intuitive Mind starts to work. The Intuitive Mind reveals to him the karmic patterns of the client, represented by his current planetary periods and transits.
This intuitive science definitely needs TM !

Article Wisdom on another server
My fourth site, http://www.articlewisdom.com/ broke all records. I had to upgrade the bandwith from 500 MB to 1000 MB because of traffic. Last month, it broke the 1000 MB mark. It was on a local server and the server people said they will suspend my domain because of the heavy traffic ! Just imagine, a site going to be penalised for heavy traffic.
So I changed it to an American server with http://www.gogreenhosting.com/. 108 dollars per year.
Now http://www.articlewisdom.com/ has 2733 articles, belonging to all categories and is developing into a major article database.
So Saturn is changing today. I will be relieved and hope my brethren will be relieved too.

Saturn's Transit of Leo !
I am sorry I did not write anything on my web pages about the change in Saturn's transit.
Saturn moves over to Leo on 15th July and for Cancerians he moves to the second house. For Leo, he moves over to Janma or Lunar First. It should be counted like that.
We pray that this change is good for all people !

Saturn moves over to Leo on July 15
I will be happy indeed when Saturn moves over to Leo. Saturn in Janma or the Lunar First has really taken a heavy toll of mental peace and happiness, even though He has not touched the economic sphere. For Cancerians, this is a huge relief.
Better times can be expected for Pushya, Ashlesha and the last quarter of Punarvasu.
For the past six weeks when He retrograded in Cancer, Saturn has been devastating my health, time and mental peace. All sorts of problems visited me ( Nana Roga Shucham ). My mother expired. She used to say ( she knew Astrology ) that she will go during my Elarata Saturn and her prediction became true.
Lunar First Saturn took a heavy toll of my health. I was putting in 12 hours of work on the Net, as I have to manage five sites and 13 blogs. I have to ping feeds, submit urls daily. Also do Article Marketing and Zine Marketing and work without rest has taken its price !
I expect better health during Saturn's second transit, which begins from July 15 !

Saturn's transit of Cancer !
I was offline for one week as my mother expired on 5th June. She was 86.
She was born in the constellation of Hasta. Hasta is presided by the Moon and Saturn's transit through Cancer ( the sign of the Moon ) indicated her death. She was sick for the last 6 years.
She knew Astrology and told me that she will pass away during my Elarata Saturn ( I have two more years for Elarata Saturn to finish ). It was she who taught me Astrology from childhood onwards.
I am in mourning till the 16th of this month.
So astrologically, Saturn, the Mrithyukaraka or significator of death passing through the sign of the Birth Star lord was responsible for her moving over to the astral plane. May her soul rest in peace.

The Solar Trinity
The ancients took the Sun as the external symbol of the Absolute Self.
The Sun at dawn is the Creator Brahma
At midday he is the destroyer Shiva
At Sunset he is the Preserver Vishnu
He is the lord of all the three realms!
Brahmaswaroopa Udaye
Madhyahne Thu Sadasiva
Astha Kale Swayam Vishnu
Trailokyam Dinakarah
Trailokyam Dinakarah
The Western mystics took his three manifestations as Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.
Manly P Hall writes in " The Secret Teachings of the Ages" thus
The philosophers of Greece and Egypt divided the life of the sun during the year into four parts; therefore they symbolized the Solar Man by four different figures. When He was born in the winter solstice, the Sun God was symbolized as a dependent infant who in some mysterious manner had managed to escape the Powers of Darkness seeking to destroy Him while He was still in the cradle of winter. The sun, being weak at this season of the year, had no golden rays (or locks of hair), but the survival of the light through the darkness of winter was symbolized by one tiny hair which alone adorned the head of the Celestial Child. (As the birth of the sun took place in Capricorn, it was often represented as being suckled by a goat.)
At the vernal equinox, the sun had grown to be a beautiful youth. His golden hair hung in ringlets on his shoulders and his light, as Schiller said, extended to all parts of infinity. At the summer solstice, the sun became a strong man, heavily bearded, who, in the prime of maturity, symbolized the fact that Nature at this period of the year is strongest and most fecund. At the autumnal equinox, the sun was pictured as an aged man, shuffling along with bended back and whitened locks into the oblivion of winter darkness. Thus, twelve months were assigned to the sun as the length of its life. During this period it circled the twelve signs of the zodiac in a magnificent triumphal march. When fall came, it entered, like Samson, into the house of Delilah (Virgo), where its rays were cut off and it lost its strength. In Masonry, the cruel winter months are symbolized by three murderers who sought to destroy the God of Light and Truth.
The coming of the sun was hailed with joy; the time of its departure was viewed as a period to be set aside for sorrow and unhappiness. This glorious, radiant orb of day, the true light "which lighteth every man who cometh into the world," the supreme benefactor, who raised all things from the dead, who fed the hungry multitudes, who stilled the tempest, who after dying rose again and restored all things to life--this Supreme Spirit of humanitarianism and philanthropy is known to Christendom as Christ, the Redeemer of worlds, the Only Begotten of The Father, the Word made Flesh, and the Hope of Glory.

Transcendental Alchemy
There are four types of Alchemy
1) Physical Alchemy
2) Psychological Alchemy
3) Biological Alchemy
4) Trascendental Alchemy
Alchemy is related to Astrology, as the Seven Revolving Heavens represents the metals seven
Gold - Sun
Silver - Moon
Jupiter - Tin
Venus - Copper
Saturn - Lead
Mars - Iron
Mercury - Mercury
Gold is the metal of the Sun. The Sun represents the Absolute Self, the Divine Solar Consciousness in World Mysticism.
Hence the purpose of Transcendental Alchemy is to transmute our earthly nature ( base metals ) into gold ( divine nature ). Meditation Triune is prescribed for this transmutation
Alchemy is effected by the Fourfold Yoga, via Wisdom, which involves the Discriminative Intellect, which discriminates between the Eternal and the Temporal. The Eternal is the Self, the Witness Consciousness in us. It is like a Mirror, which mirrors everything. It is filled with perceptions of the outer world. Hence it does not experience its own nature. Negating the Ureal and affirming the Real is genuine Wisdom.
Union via Action is renouncing all actions for the Ego and doing all actions in rhythm with Natural Law, for the Absolute Self.
Union via Psychic Control is controlling the Mind and transmuting it into a diviner mind.
Union via Love is the most important. Yogis says that they who do not love grow old quickly. You have heard of the adage " Judge not or ye be judged ". We should be Heart centred and should be non-judgemental !

Alchemy, Yoga & Astrology
Alchemy is a similar discipline as Yoga. The soul undergoes Putrefaction, Fermentation and Combustion and these are yogic processes. Alchemy is referred to as Labour of the Sun, of the Greater Central Sun. All mystic schools were Solar ! Astrology is also considered as Saura, of the Solar Path ! By Sol is the meant the Inner Sun, the Absolute Self, the Divine Solar Consciousness. This labour of the Sun is symbolised by the Eye of Ra, the Solar Symbol, the Eye of Divine Providence !
In the West, Alchemy was founded by the divine Hermes Trigmegistus. It was referred to as the Fire Religion, as alchemical principles were based on the Inner Divine Fire or the Kundalinic Fire, the fiery Serpent which lies coiled in humans. During its ascent, it burns away the mortal dross ! She lies coiled at the Muladhara, the Base Chakra. During Meditation, She rises and ascends to the Crown Chakra, giving the initiate the taste of Cosmic Consciousness.
Alchemy is derived from two words in Arabic, "al" meaning " the " and "Khem" meaning Egypt. Sir William Budge opined that Alchemy comes from the Egyptian word "Khemein", meaning black powder. This word became prominent in the Alexandrian Mystery Schools. Alexandria was then the philosophic capital of Egypt.
Purpose of Alchemy
Alchemy is the Science of Being, based on the values of the Infinite. It is the Divine Plan and the vehicle of the Ageless Wisdom. Masterminds of the ages wouldnt have indulged in it, if it had only a mundane aim.
In every man, there is a hunger to learn about superconscient truths. He is always in search of "the Philosopher's Stone" or " the Holy Grail ". Alchemy is referred to as " Path of Return", from Becoming to Being. Alchemy teaches Man the principles of regeneration and resurrection, laws of creation and transmutation; the laws that would assist Man to regain his "Paradise". Alchemy is the true Jnana Yoga; Union with the Divine is effected through the principles of
Sanctification
Purification
Putrefaction
Fermentation
Combustion
Regeneration
At-One-Ment
The ancient Mysteries called it the Regenerative Science par excellence !

Sacred Mathematics !
Astrology, we said in our earlier post, was the science of numbers in space and time. Geometry was number in space and Music the number in time.
The Universe is based on mathematical Law.
Galileo said
“Philosophy is written in this grand book --
I mean the universe --
Which stands continually open to our gaze.
But it cannot be understood
Unless one first learns to comprehend the language
And interpret the characters in which it is written.
It is written in the language of mathematics,
And its characters are triangles, circles, and other geometric figures,
Without which it is humanly impossible to understand a single word of it.”
-- Galileo Galilei, Il Saggiatore (1623)
The Celestial Triangle is the triangle formed by Aswini, Magha and Moola, at 0 degrees, 120 degrees adn 240 degrees ( Trikonas ). Celestial Rectangles are called Kendras and it is represented in Astrology as 0, 90, 180 & 270 degrees. A conjunction is 0 degrees and Opposition 180 degrees.
We are happy to note that Astrology is emerging as one of the most important sciences in the Age of Aquarius. If the Piscean Age represented Faith, the New Aquarian Age represents Gnosis, Knowledge or Philosophia Prima . Knowledge alone can make you free !

Sixfold Analysis
My last posts were translations of certain Sanskrit verses, which I felt, was not translated before. You will have to pardon my diagression.
My astro site, www.eastrovedica.com, is doing well, with the site receiving more than 340 K hits. It has also gone up in Alexa rating and in the number of unique visitors.
We have been successful with the Sixfold Analysis, wherein a planet is declared weak or strong, on the basis of Shastiamsas or points got in Shadbala or the Sixfold Analysis
V I B A L A Planets in the Sixfold Strength
Knowest thou not that planets called Vibala
Are planets weak in the Sixfold Strength?
Cancellation Bhanga they cause of Raja Yoga
And are harmful in their nature; Learned One!
Know that Weak Planets cause Raja Yoga Bhanga
Exalted with other strengths is Sampoorna called;
Devoid of other strengths is Poorna; of medium strength
Below its average strength in Sixfold is Riktha; weak
Use these terms for correct prognostication O Noble One!

Twelve Arts & the Seven Liberal Arts in Indian & Western Learning
Western Philosophy speaks of the Seven Liberal Arts, made up of the Trivium of Logic, Rhetoric & Grammar and the Quadrivium of Arithmetic, Geometry, Music & Astronomy
Indian Philosophy speaks of the Twelve Arts, namely the Six Main Arts, the Shad Dharsana of Indian Philosophy , Yoga, Vedanta, Nyaya, Vaisesika, Sankhya and Poorva Mimamsa & the Six Minor Arts - Astrology, Kalpa, Definition ( Nirukta ), Phonetics ( Shiksha ), Grammar & Poetic Metres ( Chandas ).
We find in a comparitive study that these arts are more or less the same. When Western Learning says Astronomy, the Indians by Jyothisha meant both Astronomy & Astrology, as to them both were synonyms. Mathematical Astrology is based on the formulae of Astronomy. The calculation of the MC, for instance , is Tan K = Tan R / cos w, which is a formula of Astronomy. By Jyothisha they meant Indian Astro Physics, which includes Maths also ! So Arithmetic and Geometry of Western Learning is incorporated in Jyothisha
Logic is the same as Nyaya Shastra. Gautama was the sage who founded Nyaya. He defined Nyaya as a system to refute Non Vedic arguments and install vedic arguments. Nyaya, he said, is that which illumines all learning, the instrument of all actions, the refuge of all moral ethics & analysed completely for the purpose of learning !
Pradeepa Sarva Vidyanam
Upadhi Sarva Karmanam
Ashraya sarva dharmanam
Ashraya sarva dharmanam
Vidhyodhese pareekshithah
Music or Gandharva Veda was one of the 18 sciences which constitute Indian Philosophy. So we find that there are parallels in the Western and the Eastern Invisible Colleges !

The concept of Kalapurusha, Time Eternal
Astrology was taught to students as a story. Once upon a time, there was a King (Sun ). He had a Queen( Moon ) . With a son ( Mercury ) and a Defence Minister (Mars). Two ministers they had ( Venus & Jupiter, in the Government of the Almighty ) They had a messenger ( Saturn ) !
This is a poetic verse in Hora Sastra. He who lies coiled as the 360 degree Belt of the Heavens, the Zodiac, is the Absolute Self as Time Eternal, the Zodiacal Man, the Kalapurusha ! The Nine Revolving Heavens represent major qualities. Even His libido is represented by Venus, the fair planet that hearteneth to Love !
The Sun represents the Soul of the Cosmic Man
The Moon His Mind
Mars His physical Strength
Mercury represents the Power of His Word
Jove happiness, learning and Wisdom
Venus represents his libido
& Saturn His Sorrow
The Sun the King & Moon the Queen
Defence Minister is mighty Mars
Mercury the Prince knowledeable
The Wise Ministers Venus & Jove
And Saturn, he who gives messages !
Dane Rudhyar was one of the greatest astrologers of all time. He was born at March 23, 1895, rectified to 12:42 AM in Paris, France. He enriched Astrology with his research-oriented and intuitive mind

The only Visible Science, Astrology !
There are sciences main Six
In Indian Philosophy divine
Yoga, Sankhya, Vedanta,
Nyaya, Vaisheshika, Poorma
Mimamsas or world views called
Six auxiliary sciences there are
Astrology, Kalpa, Definition
Phonetics, Grammar & Iambics
These are the sciences Twelve !
These are sciences philosophic
Origins of the Mind Intuitive
The Seers fused Reason with Intuition
And divined the subatomic levels !
All sciences philosophic have disappeared
Controversial most of them are
Astrology is the visible Science
Controversial most of them are
Astrology is the visible Science
( As you can see planets with telescope )
With Sun & Moon as witnesses celestial !
This is a translation of a poetic verse in Prasna Anushtana Paddhathi. The Seers, after divining the subtle states of Energy and Matter, presented them in poetic verses. Poetry is divine, it is the centre and circumference of all learning !

Varaha Mihira, father of Asian Astronomy & Astrology
Varaha Mihira, was the father of Asian Astronomy, astrology, arts & architecture. He was one of the most celebrated scientise who strode like a colossus on the intellectual scene, and contributed to almost all branches of arts and sciences. Thus, Encyclopedia Britannica notes, "Varāhamihira of the Gupta age was a profound scholar of all the sciences and arts, from botany to astronomy and from military science to civil engineering." (Enc.Brit., "Education, History of," vol.18, p.4, 1990 ed.) He wrote three master treatises on the three branches of Astro Physics - Astronomy, Astrology & Samhita.
His major work in Astronomy is the Pancha Siddantika ( "Five Astronomical Treatises" )
In Astrology, the Brihat Jataka
In Samhita, the Brihat Samhita
His most famous work is the treatise on the Five Astronomical Treatises. Previously five major astronomical works held absolute sway on the astronomical scene. The Soorya Siddhanta by the Seer Soorya, the Romasa Siddhanta by the Seer Romasa, the Paulasa Siddhanta by the Seer Paulasa, Vasishta Siddhanta by Vasishta, and Paitamaha Siddhanta by the Seer Pitamaha were the prevailing astronomical texts. His genius summarised the quintessence of all these five as the Five Astronmical Treatises, the Pancha Siddhantika.
The Indian Government recognised his genius and a mural painting adorns the Parliament House at Delhi. This painting includes him along with another great astronomer, Aryabhata

Cheiro, the Master Diviner !
Count Louis Hamon, alias Cheiro, is the most famous amongt palmists. ( 1866-1936 )
He had a wide following of famous European and American clients like Mark Twain, Sarah Bernhardt, Mata Hari, Oscar Wilde, Grover Cleveland, Thomas Edison, the Prince of Wales, General Kitchener, William Gladstone, Bernard Shaw and Joseph Chamberlain.
He spoke of the Hindu race and the remarkable sciences for foretelling future, (The Bhavishya Purana) which the Hindus, have, as prophetic sciences:
He spoke of the Hindu race and the remarkable sciences for foretelling future, (The Bhavishya Purana) which the Hindus, have, as prophetic sciences:
“To consider the origin of this science, we must take our thoughts back to the earliest days of the world’s history, and further more to the consideration of a people the oldest of all, yet one that has survived, and who are today as characteristic and as full of individuality as they were when thousands of years ago the first records of history were written.
I allude to those children of the East, the Hindus, a people whose philosophy and wisdom are every day being more and more revived.”
“Looking back to the earliest days of the history of the known world, we find that the first linguistic records belong to the people under consideration, and date back to that far distant cycle of time known as the Aryan civilization. Beyond history we cannot go; but the monuments and cave temples of India, according to the testimony of archaeologists, all point to a time so far beyond the scant history at our disposal, that in the examination of such matters our greatest knowledge is dwarfed into infantile nothingness – our age and era are but the swaddling clothes of the child; our manhood that of the infant in the arms of the eternity of time.”
“Long before Rome or Greece or Israel was even heard of, the mountains of India point back to an age, of learning beyond, and still beyond. From the astronomical calculations that the figures in their temples represent, it has been estimated that the Hindu understood the Precession of the Equinoxes centuries before the Christian Era."
(source: Hinduism in The Space Age - By E. Vedavyas p. 233-235).
In a book called You and Your Hand by the late Count Louis Hamon, known better as Cheiro, this statement is found:
"people who in their ignorance disdain the wisdom of ancient races forget that the great past of India contained secrets of life and philosophy that following civilizations could not controvert, but were forced to accept. For instance, it has been demonstrated that the ancient Hindus understood the precession of the equinoxes and made the calculation that it [a complete cycle] took place once in every 25,870 years. The observation and mathematical precision necessary to establish such a theory has been the wonder and admiration of modern astronomers. They, with their modern knowledge and up-to-date instruments, are still quarrelling among themselves as to whether the precession, the most important feature in astronomy, takes place every 25,870 years or every 24,500 years. The majority believe that the Hindus made no mistakes, but how they arrived at such a calculation is as great a mystery as the origin of life itself."

Lunar Theory, Astronomia Vedica & Newton
In the West, the Lunar Theory, an explanation of the perturbations of the Moon based on the Law of Gravitation, is attributed to Newton. Newton was not only a star in Physics, but in Astronomy as well.
In the hoary books of Vedic Astronomy, the longitude of the Moon is computed based on the Lunar Theory. Moon's Parallactic Equation, Annual Equation, The Variaton, Evection etc are considered and 14 trignometric corrections are given to get the true sidereal longitude of Luna
Here are the calculations in Astronomia Vedica
The Perturbations of the Moon
(Ms - Mean Anomaly of the Sun; Mm - Mean Anomaly of the Moon; Ls - Mean Longitude of the Sun; Lm - Mean Longitude of the Moon; D = Lm - Ls ( Thidhi); Nm - Node of the Moon. These values are Sidereal or Nirayana )
14 Kendras are to be made and 14 trignometric corrections are to be given, according to astronomical savants. These 14 reductions are mandatory and only after these reductions can we get the true longitude of the Moon.
First Kendra
Sin ( Ms + 180 ) * 658
Second Kendra
Sin ( Lm - Ls ) * 121
Third Kendra
Sin ( 2*D - Mm ) * 4467
Fourth Kendra
Sin ( 2*D + 6 Signs ) * 2145
Fifth Kendra
Sin (( 2*D - Mm -Ms ) + 180)* 198
Sixth Kendra
Sin ( 2*D - Ms ) * 155
Seventh Kendra
Sin ( Mm- Ms + 180 ) *112
Eighth Kendra
Sin ( 2( Lm - Nm- Mm +180))* 85
Ninth Kendra
Sin ( 2*Ls - Nm ) * 81
Tenth Kendra
Sin ( Mm - Ms )* 73
Eleventh Kendra
Sin ( 2*D + Mm ) * 60
Twelfth Kendra
Sin ( 2*Mm - 2 D + 180 ) * 42
Thirteenth Kendra
Sin ( 4*D - Mm ) * 35
Fourteenth Kendra
Sin ( 4*D - 2*Mm +180)* 30
These trignometric corrections should be added to Moon's Mean Longitude if the Kendra is in the Southern Celestial Hemisphere and deducted if the Kendra is in the Northern Celestial Hemisphere and then we get the Samskrutha Chandra Madhyamam or the Cultured Mean Longitude of the Moon. Manda Kriya ( Reduction to True Anomaly ) must be done. Then Parinathi Kriya ( Reduction to Ecliptic ) should be done and what we get then is the longitude of the Moon along the Ecliptic !
Viskshepa Vrittopa Gatho VipathaThasmannayel Jyam Parinathyabhikhyam
Yugmaupada Swarnam Idam VidheyamSyath Kranti Vritteeya Ihaisha Chandra !
After the Reductions Fourteen,
Sin M to be added or minussed thereby
To the Cultured Longitude Mean;
The Node to be deducted &
Reduced to the Earth's Path ( Ecliptic );
thus shall we get as the resultant Value,
Luna's true Sidereal Longitude !

Kepler, the Astronomer
Johannes Kepler gave the Laws of Planetary Motion to the Western world.
His basic postulates are
1) The orbit of a planet is an ellipse, with the Sun as the focus of that ellipse
2) Planets move faster at perihelion and slowest at Aphelion
3) p1^2/p2^2 = a1^3 / a2^ 3, where p = period of revolution of the planet and a its semi major axis.
