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 !
