Guidelines for Evaluation of a Chart/ Yoga
1.
The first step for evaluation is to analyze lagna and Lagnesh. Planets
occupying and aspecting lagna, and the strength/positioning of Lagnesh should
be studied carefully. Same should be seen for Chandra lagna as well. Lagna
should be strong being occupied/aspected by a benefic, preferably its own lord
or lagna lord be strong being in a Kendra, Trikone or 11th house.
2.
When
a planet is in an inimical sign or is in Paapkartari
or is combust, it normally gives inauspicious results. The planets in 2/12 or
6/8 from each other become harmful. But even a malefic planet if placed in his
own/ exaltation sign or is related with a Yogkaraka planet, gives good results.
3.
Planets aspecting a house (Brava) influence it more than the planets occupying
it.
4. A
malefic planet placed in or aspecting a house (Brava), destroys its
significations and give inauspicious results. However positioning or aspect of
a malefic in a Trika house gives good results.
5.
Natural malefic-Sun, Mars, Saturn & Rahu, when placed in 10th
house or (even better) placed in 10th house as 10th
lords, gives Rajyoga.
6. A
Yoga should occur in auspicious houses and should not be tenanted by a malefic
nor related to a malefic. The Brava lord should not be debilitated nor combust
nor occupy an evil/inimical house.
7.
The yoga causing planets should occupy more benefic Varga position and be
strong in Shadbala. They should also
be strong in residential & directional strength. They should not be in
debilitation, combustion, retrogression, and Brava-sandhi. They should have no relation with nodes. Their
planetary dasha period should operate in their active life.
8.
For evaluating any aspect of life, please analyze concerned house, its lord and
its Karaka (significator). As per Phaldeepika, if the concerned house (Brava),
its lord and Karaka, all three, are weak/afflicted, the significance of that
house is destroyed. This again should be seen from lagna and Mon separately.
The Moon, representing Mana (mind),
is a great facilitator for any event. When Moon conjunct malefic, the malefic
should be behind Moon longitudinally. For example:
In the above chart, 7th house is occupied by
Mars and is afflicted by 3-6th lord Jupiter. Karaka Venus is combust
and in Paapkartari. From Moon, 7th
house is in Rahu-Ketu axis and 7th lord Jupiter & Karaka Venus
are in Paapkartari. Hence the native
could not get married.
9.
Karakas
i)
The Karaka are of two types- Sthir
(fixed) & Char. The fixed Karaka
for each house are Sun for 1st, 9th & 10th;
Moon for 4th; Mars for 3rd & 6th; Mercury
for 4th & 10th; Jupiter for 2nd, 5th,
9th, 10th, & 11th; Venus for 7th;
and Saturn for 6th, 8th, & 12th houses.
Again Sun represents father; Moon, mother; Mars, younger siblings; Mercury,
step-son, maternal uncles & cousins; Jupiter, teacher, elder brother,
husband & friends; Venus, wife; Saturn, servants, old & infirm people;
and Rahu, grand-father.
ii) However
Char Karaka as defined by sage Jaimini, are variable for each chart. In this
system, the longitudes of planets (excluding nodes) in a house (minus sign) are
noted and designated as under;
(a)
highest-
Atmakaraka (self)
(b)
Next lower- Amatyakaraka- Companion cum minister
(c)
Next lower- Bhratri-Karaka- (Brother and father)
(d)
Next
lower- Matri- Karaka- (Mother)
(e)
Next lower- Putra Karaka- (Son)
(f)
Next Lower-Gnati- Karaka- (lord of obstacles, Hindrances & disease)
(g)
Next Lower- Dara- Karaka- (spouse
In chart No 1 above, Moon
is Atma-karaka, Mercury is Amatya-karaka, Venus is Bhatru-karaka, Jupiter is
Matru-karaka, Mars is Putra Karaka, Sun is Gnati-karaka, and Saturn is
Dara-karaka.
iii) In
addition, following should additionally be considered as Karaka:
1st house &
its lord- Atma-karaka
2nd & 7th
house & its lord- Dara Karaka
3rd house &
its lord- Bhratri Karak (Younger siblings)
4th house &
its lord- Matri Karaka
5th house &
its lord- Putra Karaka
6th house &
its lord- Gnati Karaka
9th house &
its lord- Amatya Karaka
11th house
& its lord- Bhratri Karaka (Elder siblings)
10.
The house (Brava) which is aspected by its lord and/or benefics, becomes
stronger and gives auspicious results. On the contrary if a house is associated
and/or aspected by malefic, becomes weak and produce adverse results. See
example:
In the above chart, 10th
house is aspected by its lord, Yogkaraka Mars and benefics 9th lord
Jupiter, Panch-Mahapurush (Malavya)
yoga karaka Venus & Mercury. Hence 10th house gave fully
auspicious results.
11.
When the two planets are in mutual Kendra, they influence each other. In
western astrology, it is always adverse square aspect. However in Vedic
astrology it depends upon their individual basic nature. If both are benefic,
it produces benefic yogas like Gajkesari yoga by Jupiter & Moon. This
effect becomes more pronounced if they are in 4-10 position. A planet
invariably influences the house & planet placed in 10th from it,
whether it has any Parashari aspect or not. For example Saturn in 10th
house will impart its malevolence to lagna. Similarly Saturn from 11th
house will afflict 2nd house and say Jupiter in it.
12.
The good or evil results of a house depend on the sign where its lord is
placed. However, it also depends on if the strength of the lord of the sign
(depositor) where the house lord is placed. If this depositor is placed in a
malefic house, it spoils both the house under consideration. For example if in
a chart of Cancer lagna, the 2nd lord Sun, debilitated in 4th
house, will give adverse results during its dasha/ antar-dasha. But if 4th
lord Venus is well placed and well aspected in an auspicious house, then the 2nd
house & its lord Sun is not considered weak. But if 4th lord
Venus is placed in say a Trika house, then both 2nd as well as 4th
house will get spoiled. Again if 2nd lord Sun is placed in 3rd
house in a friendly sign, but its lord is placed in a Trika house (say 6th
or 8th) and has no benefic aspect, the 2nd house &
its lord Sun will not give good results.
13.
When two planets or houses, signifying same event, are inter-related then that
event get glorified. For example Lagna & 8th house, both signify
longevity; If lords of 1st & 8th house are together
having benefic influence, the native has high longevity and if they are
ill-placed & ill-aspected, native will have short life. Similarly if 2nd
lord is strongly placed in 5th house, native will be a good orator,
as both these houses signify speech. See Example.
In the above chart, Mars
and Mercury, both Karaka of mathematics, exchange house in 4th &
6th house, making the native a great mathematician.
14.
Sun, Saturn, Rahu and 12th lord are Seperative planets. If two or
more of these planets are conjoined in or aspect a Brava, the native gets
separated from the significations of that Brava. If two or more planets out of
Seperative planets are related with 2nd house, one gets detached
from wealth & family to become a Sanyasi.
If these planets are related with 7th house, one may get separated
with spouse and even may get divorce.
15. If
a Trikone lord is in 8th house as 8th lord as well, it
gives auspicious results. For example, in a chart of Virgo lagna, Mercury as
lord of 5th & 8th lord in 8th house, makes
the native intelligent, clever and father of wise progeny. Similarly, in case
of Gemini lagna, Saturn as lord of 8th & 9th lord in
8th house, makes the native lucky & religious minded. However a
Trikone lord if conjunct with 8th lord loses its benevolence.
16.
The 6th being a Trishadya
& Trika house is malefic but malefic planet placed here, gives good
results here. However Mars in case of Scorpio lagna and Saturn in case of Virgo
lagna as an exception are evil.
17.
Conjunction of very benefic planet with a malefic, enable the malefic to confer
benefic results whereas very benefic planet confer malefic results.
18.
Bhavet-Bhavam: A house (Brava) as far removed from the
house as later is from lagna, acts like the later house. While examining
strength of a house, simultaneously assess the strength of the house that is
equidistant from the relevant house as the relevant house is from the lagna. So
while examining progeny from 5th house also examine 5th
from 5th i.e. 9th house; while examining property from 4th
house also examine 4th from 4th i.e. 7th house;
while examining disease/enemy from 6th house also examine 6th
from 6th i.e. 11th house. However examining wealth from 2nd
or expenditure from 12th are exceptions to this rule.
19.
The Self of the native is represented by lagna, his Karma by 10th
and limbs to do any act by 3rd & 11th house/lord.
When these lords influence any Brava, its lord & Karaka, the native
deliberately acts good or evil for that Brava. For example in a case of
Aquarius lagna, if Saturn & Mars influence Jupiter (11th lord
& Karaka for elder brother), the native will have severe enmity with his
elder brother to the extent of killing him. See another case of deliberately
denying marriage to self.
In the above chart, 7th
house, 7th lord Mar & Karaka Venus, all three in 7th
house, are influenced by lagnesh Venus, 3rd lord Jupiter closely
conjunct with 10th lord Moon, and by 11th lord Sun.
Although the native had a girl friend with whom she had even relations
(indicated by close conjunction of Venus & Mars in 7th house),
yet the native deliberately denied marriage to self.
20. If
a planet is debilitated in a sign and his depositor is also debilitated, then
there will be severe loss of signification of the Brava, where first
debilitated planet is placed. For example in case of a Pisces lagna, if Saturn
is debilitated in 2nd house and its depositor Mars is debilitated in
5th house, the native will have severe problem of speech or may be
dumb since both 2nd & 5th house denote speech. See
another example of longevity.
The native was son of
great astrologer Dr BV Raman. He had Sun debilitated in Lagna and depositor
Venus was debilitated in 12th house. Therefore the native had a
short life and died on 29-01-1963.
21.
Venus is a planet denoting sex, luxury & comfort. The 12th house
also denote similar things among others. The closer the relation of Venus with
12th house/lord, the more comforts the native may enjoy. If Venus is
conjunct with 12th lord in 12th house, it will give great
wealth to the native. The best results are seen in case of Aries & Scorpio
lagna, because then Venus is in her exaltation/Mooltrikone sign. However this
rule does not apply if Capricorn/Aquarius is the sign in 12th house.
22.
Normally any planet placed in 6th or 8th from Brava or
planet is harmful. But if from any house or planet, there are benefics in both
6th & 8th (not in one), it boost the benevolence of
the house or planet. Since the benefics in 6th & 8th
will directly aspect 12th & 2nd of the house /
planet, it acts like a situation of Subhkartari
Yoga.
23.
The lord of each sign imbibes the specific qualities of the sign he owns and
gives results accordingly. But if a different planet occupies the sign, the
results of the lord will exhibit the qualities of the planet occupying the
sign. For example Jupiter is the lord of Sagittarius sign, and he gives results
accordingly. But if Sagittarius is occupied by say Mars, Then Jupiter will give
results incorporating qualities of Mars.
24.
Yogas of the natal chart will fully fructify only when they retain their
potential in Navamsha as well i.e. Yoga causing planets should not become weak
in Navamsha.
25.
Saturn alone in 4th house is harmful as it aspects lagna. However if
Saturn is in his own/exaltation sign causing Sasa Yoga, it increases the
happiness due to mother, property, & vehicles.
26. A
malefic 7th lord in 7th or 11th house gives
multiple spouse and creates misunderstanding between husband & wife.
28.
Yoga formed in a particular house, raises the level of that house for good. For
example combination of 9th & 10th lord in 12th
house- the yoga may not be fully effective, but the 12th house
significations gets a boost for the better.
28.
Effect of a Yoga gets diluted by the weakness of the concerned Planets in natal
chart or in Navamsha, or their Nakshtra lord or depositor.
29.
Yoga giving planets if inimical to each other, lowers the effects of the yoga,
but if friendly, full effects are experienced.
30. In
benevolence, lords of Kendra, Trishadya &
Trikone are strong in ascending order. It is widely accepted that 3rd,
4th, 11th, lagna, 5th, 9th and 10th
house are strong in ascending order. Only 6th, 8th, and
12th houses are malefic.
