The sensual life led by the native resultedin his contracting dreadful venereal comp14ints. Some General Observations When Venus, Mars and Jupiter in one horoscope are situated in the other horoscopein a trine or 3 ancl 11 posi_ tions, that is, if in the boy's horoscope Venusis in Taurus and in the girl's horoscope,in Cancer or Virgo, it is a favourable position. When the Sun and the Moon have simif harmoniouspositions, except2 and 12 (dwirdwadasa), ar there is usually a strong altachment.Here again if the husband'sSun is in Cancer and the wife.s is in Virgo,the needed harmony exists. When the Sun and the Moon are disposed suggested as abovebut Mars in one caseis in a sign, which happensto be the 12th from Venusin the otherhoroscope, attachmentexists, but there cannotbe normalhappiness in their private lives.lf Venus in one horoscope in a is sign occupied by Saturn in the other a serious and industrious partner is indicated.Mars in the 7th, unaspected by benef ics, indicates f requent quarrels reading to misunderstandings.Saturn in the gth aspectedby Mars (especially 4th or 8th houseaspect) is not conducive mutualunderto standing. saturn in the 7th confers stability in the marriage but the husband wife manifestscoldness or and not warmth.

One of the most misunderstood and misappliedastrological dicta is the one relatingto the so-called evil of Mars (Kuja Dosha). "lf Mars is in the 2nd,12th,4th,7th or gth house (either from the Ascendant the Moon or Venus) in the horoscope or o f t h e f e n r a l e ,t h e d e a t ho f t h e h u s b a n d i l l o c c u r ; a s i n r i l a r w situation Mars in the husband's of horoscope causesthe death of the wife." lt shouldbe notedthat the strength the dosria of in 2, 12, 4, 7 and 8 is in ascendingorder. tn assessing tho quantumof dosha,Bhavas and not Rasis must be ta'ken into account. The doshaof Mars is said to get neutralised minior misedin the followingcircumstances. Mars in the 2nd is bad providedsuch 2nd house happens to be any sign otherthan Geminiand Virgo. Mars in the 12th causes dosha in all signsexceptTaurusand Libra.

The Doshais not absolute. lts intensitycan vary not only accordingto the exceptionsgiven above but also according to the sign-friendly,exalted, own, inimical etc.-involved.

Time and Fructification of the Resutts of tho Eighth Bhava Determining Longevity The longevity a nativecan be determinedby different of methods. But accordinglo most classicalworks, it is not possibleto determinethe span of rife before twerve years after birth. This is because life of the new.born baby is reguthe lated by the actions(karma)of its parents. lf the baby dies within the firstfour yearsafter birth, it is said to be due to the mother'sbad karma. Deathbetween four and eight years is attributed the bad actionsof the father. lf the child dies to between eight and twelve years,it is because its own sins of from previouslives. The correct determination longovity of has always been a hard nut to crack. Thereare several methodsin vogue, both astrological and astrologico-malhematical. marakavichara The (inquiry into death)on the basisof VimshottariDasa has, at least in our humbleexperience, provedquite satisfactoryas it enables one to judge fairly correctly,the probablelength of one's life on this planet. Of the mathematicalsystems, Pindayurdaya Amsayurdaya, and especiallythe latter, seerns to have receivedconsiderable attention from severalwellknown ancient writers. Varahamihira that Satyacharya,s says view that the longevity conferred by a planet dependsupon its Navamsa positionis in conformity with the views of the majority of astrological writers. The purely mathematical methods longevity of must be applied to thousandsof horoscopes befolea conclusion can be arrived as to their workat ability. One should not reject these methods basing rhe conclusions a small numberof instances. We have been on testingthesevariousmethodsand find some of them, particularlythe Amsayurdaya, yield fairly approximate results.

The pindayu Method Pindayuis also cailed Grahadattayurdaya it is the total as of the terms of life grantedby all the planetswhen in a state of deep exaltation. Eachplanet is supposed give a certainterm of life when to it occupiesits deep exaltationpoint and half the period when it occupiesits deep debilitation point. At intermediatepositions it givesthe periodequal to hatf the term plus the period proportionateto the planet's distance from its debilitation point. The term of life given by each of the planets in its deep exaltationis as follows : Sun-19 years Moon-25 years Mars-15 years Mercury-l2 years Jupiter-l5 years Venus-2l years Saturn-20 years The sameplanets in debilitation give the foilowing terms : __ Sun-9 years6 rnonths Moon-12 years6 months Mars-7 years6 months Mercury-6 years Jupiter-7 years6 months Venus-l0 years6 months Saturn-10 years Theseare the termsof rife each pranetgives to the native, provided,the planetsare not affectedotherwise, either by the 7

conjunctionor by the aspectof malefics. But it is very lare horoscopes, that we come across not affected in anyway by planetary positions. Out of thesetermscertain adverse deduc. tions are to be made to substitutefor the evil aspectsand other maleficinfluences. For this what is called Harana or reductionis employed. There are various kinds of Haranas which require carefulapplication and which depend upon the intengity the evils in any particular of horoscope. Fourkindsof Haranasof reductionsshould be appliecl. They aro : 1. Chakrapatha Harana, 2. Satruksehtra Harana, 3. Astangata Harana,and 4, Krurodaya Harana. Chakrapatha Harana The Lagnais the Ascendant. The 7th housefrom it or the 180th degreeis the Descenclant.The Descendant the horiis zon. The westward direction from the Ascendant the horito zon cor/ers 12th, 1 1th, 1Oth, gth, 8th and 7th Bhavas. the Planets found within 180owest of the Ascendant undergothis reduction, while planetswhich at birth are below the horizon, i.e., occupying first six Bhavas exemptfrom this reducthe are tion. Thosethat ale nearest the Lagnain its westerndirecto tion lose a greatpart of their termsof life, while planets the at farthestdistance from tlre Ascendant are not subjected so to muclrloss. This reduction or Harana varies also with the natureof the planet. In the caseof benefics,the amount of Haranais half of what it is in the caseof malefics. The Moon, Jupiter,Venusand well-associated Mercury are benefics while the Sun, Mars,Saturnand badlyafflicted ics. Mercuryaremalef

lf thereare two or more planetsin any of thesesixhouses, the reduction must be appliedonly to the strongestplanet in eachof the houses. Satrukshetra Harana Harana After the Chakrapatha Haranais made,Satrukshetra mustbe applied. This is basedon the position of planetsin theit inimical houses. When a planet occupies an inimical sign, one-thirdof the term obtainedafterChakrapatha Harana must be deducted. This reductionshould not be made if the planet is retrograde vakra. Some authors say that Mars is or exempted from Satrukshetra Harana,while othels claim only vakraplanetsmust be considered. The Sanskritword used is vakra. By this is meantboth Mars and retrogression. But for all practicalpurposes, both planetsin rettogressi,rnand Mars are not subjected Satrukshetra to Harana. Astangata Harana Asta meanscombustion. When a planet is very close to to the Sun !t seems loseal! its vitalising influencesby being absorbedby the Sun's intense power, so much so that it practicallyuseless.Therefore when a planet is within becomes certaindegrees from the Sun, it is said to be in combustion and one-half of the term left after the Chakrapathaand SatrukshetraHaranasare caried out must be deducted. When tho

Moon is 12'forwards or backwards the Sun, he is Astangata. of lf Mars,Mercury, Jupiter,Venusand Saturn ara 17e,14o,11o, 10o and 50 respectively either backwards or forwards of the Sun, they get combust. Mereuryand Venus,if retrograde, get combustonly when 12 and 8o forwardsor backwardsrespectively of the Sun. But it must be noted that Venusand Saturn are exempt from Astangata Harana even when combustas almostall authorities agreeon this point. Krurodaya Harana When one or more malefics occupy the Lagna, leduction due to their presencemust be made in the term already obtainedafter the reductionsdue to Chakrapatha.Satrukshetra and Astangata Haranas have beenmads. This is done by multiplying the number of Amsas that Lagna has passed by the total of the plgnetaryterms. The product is divided by 109. The quotientso obtained is deducted from the total term of life. The remainder is converted into months,days, etc., and addedon to the quotient which represents years. lf malefic in the Ascendantis aspected a benefic, the by Haranafractionso obtained is half of what it would otherwise be. lf two or rnore planets occupy the Lagna, tho planet .Thus nearestto the Lagna_degree must be taken into account. if Lagnais 150of a sign and Mars is 20. and Saturn2boof the samesign, preference given to ths nearest is planet, namely.

According to Satyacharya,the longitude (sphuta) of a planet is first convertedinto minutes (karas). This is dlvided by 200. The quotient denotes the toiar number of Navams' passedby a planet from the first point of Aries. The quotient is again divided bv 12 to obtain the number of Navamsas passedin the sign considered. This number denotesthe years. The remainder will give the fraction of a year granted by fhe particular planet. The longitudeof the Lagna is also subjected to the samo calculations get period of life it grants. to i The period so granted by a planet is subject to both Bharana (increase) and Harana (reduction) in the foltowing mannel: (a) A planetwhen exalted or retrogradegives thrice the gtumber yearsobtainedby the abovecalculations. of (b) A planet when vargottama or occupying own Navamsa own Rasioi own Drekkana or gives twice the number of years.

Other lmportant Considerations

Astrologyis a scienceof tende,ncies predictions not and do imply fatalism ot absolute predetermination. Consequently it is only one's naturalaptitudes leanings for speci{icoccuor pationsthat can be known from the horoscope. Therefore, no definiteastrological factorscan be fixed for eachvocation. Beforejudgingthe profession is necessary ascertain it to the mental,intellectual and physical abilitiesof the nativeby a carefulexamination the strength weakness or of otthe Sun, the Moon and the Lagnarespectively. The positionof Mercuryis equallyimpoilant. For, thoughclassical astrology has assigned the mentaloutlook of a personto tho position of the Moon, yet our observations to show that as the planet Mercury go rules buddhi or intelligence,his auspiciousdispositionis in equally important orderto measureone's mental make-up. When eitherthe Moon or Mercury receives a series of evil particularly aspects those of Rahu and Saturn,one lacksthe of strength mind neededto facacritical situationsand would involvingresponsibilityand the ability be unfit for professions to meet criticalsituations. It would, in our experience,be reasonableto expecta planetin the tenth or rulingthe 1oth houseto havemore influenceover the vocation than a planetof generalprominencein

any other pan of the chart. This however is different from implyingthat the rulerof the 1Othor a planetin the 1Othhouse a can be considered fixed factorfor any of the professions. A study of over 50 charts has revealed that it is only in statistical 15 chartsthat the 1oth lord and the 1oth Bhavawere definite factorsin determinlng the native'sprofession. But the most powerful plsnot in the chart will also havo a beadng on plofession. Going back to thc ability to meet situatlong, planetin tho a 1Othhouse receiving powedul aspeclfrom a benefic denotes e that the individual is not lacking in the ability of the nature of of the aspectingplanet that he could make a success it. lf the Sun and Rahu are in the 10th house aspectedby Jupiter, the native may presideover political meetingsand take interest in politicalactivities; but politics will not be tho native's profession. lf the Sun and Mars are in the 1Othhousewith Mars fortifiedand in dignity, the nativemay be a medical man but in would be interested politicsand even invotvedin it. For purposes study, we may classifythe variousoccupaof tions into six broad groupsor categories,viz., (1) Intellectual avocations, (2) economicavocations, (3) aestheticactivities, professions (4) routine works, (5) mechanical and (6) trades. is This classification too general because it is impossible to draw a line of distinctionbetweenthe different categories. An author, whose main work is intellectual,may spend a part of his time in composingand printing or insurance business. and economic In his occupation,therefore,both the intellectual people suddenly come in. Thereare instances when aspects change their careers from teaching to business. This is explainedby the fact that there is a specialstimulus to cettain

2{a

qualitiesat certain ages,probably depending upon the nature the directional influences (Dasasand Bhuktis) operating of then.

Takingthe first group-lntellectualavocations-historians, philosophers, scientists, mathematicians, doctors,astronomers, astrologers, psychologists,psycho-analysts, iudges, lawyers, etc., come under this group. To the economic gtoup may be politicians, bank wolkers, insurance essigned workers, actuaries, industrialists, mill-owners and manufacturers. Musicians, actors, singers, dancers, dramatists, cinema stars, artistes belong to the Aesthetic group. Routine workers include the lalge numberof clerks,shop assistants, waitors and the general staff in offices, govetnment and business organisations. Labourers, agriculturists, carpenters, attisans, mechanics, compositors, mill-workers, etc., belongto the frfth group, The sixth, vr2..traders includethe rankand f ileof merchants, bookpublishers, stationers, grocers, printers, journalists, sellers, manufacturing representatives, etc.

Eachone of these avocations can be divided into a number of divisions. For instance, an artist may be a sculptor, photographer etchet ; a musicianmay be a violinist,vocalist, or composer flutist. An engineer or may be an inventor, designer or a mechanic and so on. Hence it would be impossible to make an entire catafogue of professionsand group them to suit astrological factors

Generally speaking Jupiter and Mercuryreferto intellecprofessions,the Sun, the tual avocations, Venusto aesthetic Moon and Mars to economic occupations, Mercury traders, to jobs and Rahu and Ketu to routine Saturnto hard working workers.

We have seen so far how to assess the nature of resultsof each of the twolve Bhavas or houses beginning from the seventh (marriage) to the twerfth (emancipation) in this volume. The principlesof astrorogy provide us with a tool to estimate the generalworth of an individualand what life has in store for him in its varioussectorssuch as marriage (7th), ruffering and death (8th), parentage, prosperity, travel (9thi, fame, success, distinction and occupation (1Oth), trienOs, brothers,gains (1l th) and expenditure, incarceration and f inat release (12th) afterdeath. Arthoughthe pranetary configurations can give a broad outline of the future of an individuat, it is only an intuitionarperception that can herp us to assessrhe real worth of a horoscope. lt is no easyjob to draw conclu_ sions. The astrologer has a duty in dressing his predictions up in such a way that the truth is revealed without adversoly affectingone psychologically. lf the Lagna lord, the Moon or Mercury is afflicted, a negativepredictionmay drive the native to melancholiaand frustration. Henceone must be careful in revealingthe truth. On the contrary,a native with strong Ascendant,the Moon or Mercury will be abre to digest any prediction without reacring

The 8th rord Jupiter in a dusthanaand the gth lord Sun (with referenceto the Moon) being strong in a kendraare not very good for longevity. On the other hand, the presence Venus in a kendragives some strength. Since of both beneficsand malefics are in a kendra (quadrant) and kona (trine) and 8th lord is in a malefic Bhava, the spanof life can be said to be medium or madhyayu, Another leason for medium life is the exaltation of maraka planets, namely, 2nd lord Mercuryand 7th tord Mars in trines. The Dasas that operateduring madhyayu (32 to 75 years) are of Jupiter (in pail), Saturn and Mercury. Of these three

BetweenSaturn and Mercury, thg latter is the 2nd lord and powerful due to his exaltation. But Saturn who associates with Mercurytakesover the marakatwa from him and becomes a first-rate killer. Since Lagna lord aspects Lagna,Saturncannot be expectedto kill in the beginning of his Dasa. This would not be warranted by the planetary dispositions. Hencehe can kill only in the closing paft of his period. Rahu whc is with Saturn (maraka) and 2nd lord Mercuryand who should also reflect the lesults of Saturn quite capableof proving fatal.
