4. The Harsha Bala:
Harsha
literally means happiness. The planets are happy or comfortable in certain
locations/ situations, which provides them strength or Bala. In determination
of such strength, following four factors are considered:
a)
Position of a planet in a specific house.
b)
Position in own/ exaltation sign.
c)
Position in house of own sex.
d)
Depending on whether Varsh Pravesh is during day or night.
These factors are
individually considered below;
1.
Sthan Bala (Positional Strength): The planets get strength when posited in certain specific houses
in annual chart (Varshaphal). This is
also called Prathama Bala (the first
strength or the first state of being happy). According to this, The Sun in 9th
house, Moon in 3rd house, Mars in 6th, Mercury in lagna,
Jupiter in 11th, Venus in 5th and Saturn in 12th
house, are said to acquire Harsha Bala
of 5 units due to their position.
In the example chart, only
Saturn, posited in 12th house, gets this strength.
2.
Uchcha-Swachetri Bala: 5 units of Harsha Bala are granted to a planet, If it is posited in his/ her
own or exaltation sign as second strength.
In the example chart, the Sun,
Mars & Jupiter in their own houses, and the Moon & Saturn in their
exaltation signs, get this strength.
3. Gender (Male-Female) Bala: In the
Annual chart, the houses number 1, 2, 3, 7, 8 & 9 are feminine houses. The
remaining six houses are male houses. The Female planets- Moon, Mercury, Venus
& Saturn when posited in feminine houses and Male planets- Sun, Mars &
Jupiter in male houses get 5 units of Harsha
Bala as third strength.
In the example chart, The
Sun being in an odd sign and the Moon being in an even sign gets this strength.
4.
Din-Ratri Bala: The male planets acquire the fourth
strength of 5 units when the year commences during day time. The female planets
get this strength when Varsh-pravesh occurs during night time.
In the example chart,
Varsh-pravesh being in day time, male planets- Sun, Mars & Jupiter get this
strength.

Interpretign
the Harsha Bala: All the four types of Bala are added up
for each planet in a Varshphal. A planet can have a possible maximum of 20
units. Such a position is possible only if Varsh-pravesh
is at night and an exalted Moon is in 3rd house. Generally the
maximum unit acquired by a planet is 15 units only. Depending on the units of Harsha Bala acquired by a planet, it is
categorized as follows:
a) Nirbala (No strength)- When the unit
acquired is zero.
b) Alpa Bali (weak)- When unit acquired are
five.
c) Madhya Bali (moderate strength)- When
unit acquired are 10.
d) Poorna Bali (fully strong)- When unit
acquired are 15.
