The Two Zodiacs -

The Two Zodiacs – The Great Sidereal vs. Tropical Debate
It’s important to clearly understand the difference between the two zodiacs, the Vedic/Sidereal and the Western/Tropical, and their perspective places in the world of astrology. Without this understanding it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking one system is superior or inferior to the other and disregard their relative strengths.
The Two Zodiacs
So why two zodiacs anyway? Isn’t one enough? After all, one sky seems to have worked out quite well - thank you very much. God made no mistakes there. One zodiac belt, about 16 degrees wide, with the 12 zodiac signs ranging from Aries to Pisces rising in the eastern horizon - no problems there. It’s just astronomical fact. The stars shine equally on everyone, whether they’re standing in New Delhi or downtown L.A., so why one “Sidereal” zodiac popular in the East and one “Tropical” zodiac popular in the West?
It’s important to realize that both zodiacs are exactly the same in the sense that there are 12 zodiac signs progressing from Aries to Pisces. The elements – fire, earth, air, water; qualities – cardinal, fixed and mutable; and general characteristics associated with each sign are basically the same in both systems. Up until the last century or so, before the discoveries of Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and Chiron, the classical rulerships of the signs were used in both systems.
The classical sign rulerships are as follows: Mars rules Aries and Scorpio, Venus rules Taurus and Libra, Mercury rules Gemini and Virgo, the Moon rules Cancer, the Sun rules Leo, Jupiter rules Sagittarius and Pisces, and Saturn rules Capricorn and Aquarius.
The difference between the two zodiacs, therefore, is not so much in the contents of the zodiacs but in the calculation of the starting point of the 1st degree of Aries.
The 1st degree of Aries
In Western or Tropical astrology the calculation of the Sun passing through the 1st degree of Aries is marked by the spring equinox or March 21st. By extension, if you take out your western ephemeris you’ll note that the beginning of each season is lined up with the Sun passing through each of the cardinal points in the zodiac – Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn. The Tropical zodiac, therefore, is a symbolic system based on the sun earth relationship and is oriented to the seasons.
In Vedic or Sidereal astrology the calculation of the Sun passing through the 1st degree of Aries is marked by the Sun actually passing through the observable fixed stars making up the constellation Aries and has nothing to do with the seasons. “Sider” means “star” and therefore sidereal astrology is based on the actual astronomical positions of the planets against the backdrop of the fixed star constellations. The Sidereal zodiac, therefore, is not symbolic but is oriented to an observable phenomenon.
David Frawley writes in his book, The Astrology of the Seers, that “the Sidereal zodiac is probably the original zodiac historically, as it is the observable zodiac. The Tropical, which is an abstract zodiac, must have been derived from it, as all abstractions are usually based on underlying observable things.”
The Precession of the Equinox
An astonishing thing to contemplate is that the ancient Vedic rishis were aware of the fact that the earth changes its tilt or “wobbles” on its axis. Many centuries before the Europeans were debating over whether the earth was flat, the Vedic rishis were figuring out exactly what effect the Earth’s wobble would have on the calculations of their ephemeris’s!
Without the aid of telescopes or modern technology they calculated that the orientation of the equinoxes to the fixed stars precedes or moves backwards through the zodiac at a rate of about 50.3 seconds per year, or about 1 degree every 72 years. That they were actually able to calculate this gives us a clue as to how advanced the ancient Vedic civilization was in terms of mathematical and astronomical knowledge.
This phenomenon is known as the “precession of the equinox”. In other words, where the Sun actually is at the time of the spring equinox moves backward through the zodiac. Sidereally speaking, this year 2003, the sun was at 6 degrees 03 minutes of Pisces, at the spring equinox. Therefore, the current mathematical difference as of March 21st 2003 between the two zodiacs is 23 degrees 57 minutes.
The Ayanamsha
This mathematical difference between the Sidereal and the Tropical zodiacs is called the “ayanamsha” in Sanskrit. As another example, on January 1st 1950, the ayanamsha was at 23 degrees 09 minutes.
However, to further complicate matters there are several commonly used ayanamshas that vary by as much as almost 2 degrees from one another. By far the most commonly used ayanamsha by Vedic astrologers worldwide is the Lahiri ayanamsha, which was given the stamp of approval by the government of India.
The Historical Alignment of the Two Zodiacs
Historically, it’s generally agreed, that the two zodiacs were in alignment with one another about the year 285 A.D. with both ephemeris’s listing the passage of the Sun into Aries at the spring equinox. So what happened? What went wrong?
I don’t know that anything went “wrong”. Obviously, our civilization was just meant to have both zodiacs.
When the Two Zodiacs Will Be Exactly Opposite
Due to the precession of the equinox, the Sun will be at the 1st degree of Libra at the spring equinox in 11,232 years! Mark you calendars! Then we’ll really have a lot of explaining to do with regards to the two systems because they’ll be exactly opposite one another!! The ayanamsha will be 180 degrees 0 minutes!! I’d say it’d be worth it to incarnate at that time just to join in the debate!
The Process of Debating
Let’s face it - we’re basically creatures of habit. We tend to feel comfortable with what we’re used to and resist change. It’s hard to be clear and objective when we feel threatened in any way and it’s easy to dismiss a seemingly opposing viewpoint to save having to expand out of our comfort zones.
I think God gets a lot of mileage out of people debating and facing the stuff that comes up in the process. Take, for instance, how debating is an integral practice in the training of Tibetan Buddhist monks in the qualities of understanding and compassion. Eventually their resistances are broken down and they’re able to contain a broader, more all encompassing viewpoint.
The Debate Today
The debate between the two zodiacs is, of course, centered around one main question: “How can both systems be right?” How can I be, for instance, both an Aries in the Western system and a Pisces in the Vedic system?
It could be argued, first of all, that it’s rather simplistic to identify yourself as only one particular sign like we tend to do in the West. This is more of a recent cultural phenomenon due to the popularization of horoscope columns. In the more distant past, Western astrology was oriented more to the ascendant than the Sun if it had to be limited to one sign. Vedic astrology today favors the emphasis of the ascendant over the Sun as well.
This makes sense because the ascendant is the starting point of the horoscope and the quickest moving indication in the chart so is could be considered more personally associated with your identity or “you”. In practice, the ascendant or 1st house relates more to one’s self, identity and personality traits than any other house.
However, if you asked someone in India “what’s your sign?” they would likely assume you mean their Moon sign, since Vedic astrology is a Moon-based system and it’s primary predictive systems are based on the Moon.
Reasons for the Relevance of Both Zodiacs
The obvious reason why emphasizing one sign is limited is that there are so many potential configurations from which to interpret the same descriptive traits. For instance, your Sun may move from Aries to Pisces in your Vedic chart, but you also may still have three planets in Aries, or Mars in Aries. You certainly would tend to see strong Aries traits in the Vedic chart even though the Sun is not involved.
In fact, in my experience that’s always been the case when I look at the two charts for a particular person. They’ve never contradicted one another looking at the chart as a whole.
Some people say that your Western chart is more “earthy” and represents your personality and your Vedic chart is more “heavenly” and represents your soul. This makes some sense due to the relative vantage points in terms of distance. In other words, the stars are further away than our Sun, which is the closest star.
On the other hand, this seems to imply that your Western chart is more grounded in practical matters on Earth, and your Vedic chart is more spiritual and ethereal. Whereas, the opposite could be argued to be the case because your Vedic chart is related to the actual observable fixed stars and your Western chart is symbolic. This is why some argue that your Vedic chart can be so accurate for prediction with actual events on Earth and your Western chart is better for describing the psychological effects the actual events may have on your psyche.
The Evolutionary Pattern of the Zodiac
I think that what’s important is the realization that the zodiac represents an archetypal evolutionary developmental pattern beginning with Aries and ending in Pisces. As an illustration, the pattern of 12 signs can be visually likened to a clock. If you rotate the clock and get the Sidereal Vedic chart or the Western Tropical chart the clock still works at least symbolically if not literally because it’s based on a true fundamental pattern.
This is why I think Western astrology makes sense even though it uses a symbolic zodiac. Our day to day life on earth is integrally effected by the seasons and so to transpose the zodiac over the seasons – works. The essential qualities of the signs of the zodiac do line up with the Sun passing through the seasons. For instance, the Sun passing into Aries conveys the qualities of spring – active, energetic, vigorous creative new life etc.
Likewise, you could take any developmental pattern and transpose the zodiac. One obvious one would be take the 12 year transit return of Jupiter. Each year is like one sign of the zodiac. The first year when Jupiter is transiting over natal Jupiter is new, energetic and expansive in growth like Aries even though the actual Jupiter return may happen to land in another sign. The twelfth year, like Pisces, has qualities of dissolution and death before the rebirth again with the next Jupiter return.
The Zodiac Wrap Up
Being that the Tropical system is Sun-based the commonly held opinion is that the Tropical system is better at describing the personality and psychological patterns. Whereas, the Vedic system is better at describing the soul nature and predicting actual events because it’s tied to the actual fixed constellations.
And that’s how the reference texts read in practice. The Vedic texts shed very little light on psychological patterns and emphasize prediction whereas it’s just the opposite with the Western reference texts.
I think that the bottom line is that you can get an accurate reading, both in terms of psychological interpretation and prediction, using either system. In the final analysis I think that the accuracy of the system depends more on the astrologer than on the system.
Lesson 1 Exercise:
How to Calculate Your Vedic Chart - Subtracting the Ayanamsha
Obtain a copy of your western chart, if you don’t have one already. Make a list of your planets and their degrees as shown below. Subtract the ayanamsha or 23 degrees from each Tropical planetary position and the ascendant to get their Sidereal position.
Example Calculations:
Tropical Positions Sidereal Positions
Asc: 11 Gemini – 23 = 18 Taurus
Sun: 14 Scorpio – 23 = 21 Libra
Moon: 10 Virgo – 23 = 17 Leo
Mercury: 28 Libra – 23 = 5 Libra
Venus: 8 Libra – 23 = 15 Virgo
Mars: 25 Capricorn – 23 = 2 Capricorn
Jupiter: 9 Pisces – 23 = 16 Aquarius
Saturn: 24 Aquarius – 23 = 1 Aquarius
North Node: 18 Sagittarius – 23 = 5 Scorpio
South Node: 18 Gemini – 23 = 5 Taurus
(Optional)
Uranus: 24 Leo – 23 = 1 Leo
Neptune: 3 Libra – 23 = 10 Virgo
Pluto: 14 Virgo – 23 = 21 Leo
An easy way to do this in your head, if the planet’s degrees are less than 23 degrees in any given sign, is to add 7 degrees and go back a sign. For example, if a planet is at 11 degrees Gemini then add 7 degrees and go back to Taurus. The Sidereal position would be 18 degrees Taurus.
If you want to get the exact position of the planet down to the minute then get out a calculator and calculate the exact ayanamsha of the year and month you were born.
Use the following dates for the ayanamsha as a starting point:
January 1st 1940 - 23 degrees 01 minutes
January 1st 1950 - 23 degrees 09 minutes
January 1st 1960 - 23 degrees 18 minutes
January 1st 1970 - 23 degrees 26 minutes
January 1st 1980 - 23 degrees 34 minutes
Use these approximate figures:
4 minutes 11 seconds per 5 years
1 minute 40 seconds per 2 years
50 seconds per 1 year
4 seconds per month

Western Sidereal Astrology
Western Sidereal Astrology
23 October, 2007 12:16:00 astrologer
Based on Tropical and Sidereal astrology, there are two different opinions among western astrologers about the starting point Aries, in the zodiac.
According to the Sidereal astrology, the starting point is at a particular fixed position in the background of stars. But according to the tropical astrology which is adopted by the majority of Western astrologers, the starting point is when the position of the Sun against the background of stars coincides with the Northern hemisphere vernal equinox.
As the Earth spins on its axis, it wobbles and causes the precession of the equinoxes where the vernal equinox moves gradually backwards against the star background.
This occurs at the rate of about 30 degrees which is one Zodiacal sign length every 2,160 years. Hence, the two zodiacs are aligned only once every 26,000 years, with the most recent alignment being about 2,000 years ago when the zodiac was principally established. This concept has led to the conceptual basis for the Age of Aquarius, the dawning of which coincides with the movement of the vernal equinox across the cusp from Pisces to Aquarius in the star background.

Natal Astrology Tips - About Longevity
Longevity can be ascertained by the placements of Jupiter, Mercury and Venus, the natural benefics, in angles. Angular Jupiter can destroy 100,000 afflictions or doshas. Angular Venus can destroy 50,000 doshas and angular Mercury can destroy 25,000 doshas ( Laksham Doshan hanti devendra poojya ).
If Jupiter is placed in the 8th, it indicates longevity ( Amitha Jeevitha ). The 8th lordship of Jupiter or placement in the 8th is considered to be a Raja Yoga.
Randhradheeswara Ashtamasthithir api syath yoga krith dehinam
Saturn in the 8th is also good for longevity ( Ashtamasthe sani ishta thasyal ). Also aspect on the 8th is also longevity generating.

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 -

Horary Tips
Troubles from enemies are discerned by Horary Astrology. The Sixth House rules enemies. Kendradhipatya and Badhakadhipatya are also taken into consideration. Angular ownership by benefics is Kendradhipatya and Badhakadhipatya is explained here
On Enemy Trouble - One of the most important aspects of V A Horary
For Cardinal Signs the 11H is the Badhasthana
( For Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn)
For Fixed Signs the 9H is the Badhasthana
( For Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius)
For Ubhaya Signs the 7H is the Badhasthana
( For Gemini, Virgo, Sag, Pisces )
Mandeesha, the Lord of Gulika Sign, also is Badhaka
All planets with Mandeesh are Badhaka
All planets with Badhakesh, the lord of Badha House, are also Badhaka
( Charodaye Labha Gruhe Thu Badha ....... )
Indications about the Enemy
If Jupiter and the Sun tenant Badhasthana- Enemy is rich and handsome
If Mars- is a hunchback
If Mercury- is of big build
If Saturn- is lame.
If Venus- is a woman
( Shatruswaroopam Ripugena Vachyam ..........)
If the 6H lord is in Badhastana- Badha is obvious

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.
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.

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.
Both were directed by the Divine. Both had confidence that everything was divinely ordained. Both believed themselves to be born for noble missions, for which all personal comforts should be sacrificed.
Augustus founded the Religion of Numa and consecrated his life to the welfare of his subjects.
Aurobindo founded Integral Yoga and Integral Philosophy and helped millions achieve Enlightenment.
Their horoscopes show how powerful Jupiter is in enlightening men and taking them to the Path Divine!

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 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 !
