5. Pancha- Vargiya
Bala:
This the most important
strength to be determined in Tajika system. This yields numerical values of
strength for different palnets. Whenever the relative strength of planets is
referred to, it is the Panch-Vargiya Bala
that is generally meant. In Varshphal,
it helps in determining Varshesh or the ruler of the year. It must, however, be
born in mind that while considering
planetary friendship or otherwise, Guidelines specified in `Tajika aspects’ are
only applicable. The Panch-Vargiya
Bala refers to five sources of energy/ strength applicable to any planet.
The five sources are as under:
1.
Griha/ Kshetra Bala: This Bala is determined by its location in
its own house or the house of another planet depending on the Tajika
relationship i.e. house 3,5,9 & 11 are friendly, houses 1, 4, 7 & 10
are inimical and houses 2, 6, 8 & 12 are neutral. A planet gets 30 units of
Bala in own sign, 22.5 units in friendly sign, 15 units in neutral sign and 7.5
units in an inimical sign.
In the example chart, Sun,
Mars & Jupiter being in their own houses 30 units each; Saturn being in a
friendly sign gets 22.5 units; and Moon, Mercury & Venus being in an enemy
sign gets 7.30 units each.
2.
Uchcha Bala: First find out points of deep exaltation
& debilitation for each planet, which is as under:

A planet in its deep
exaltation gets 20 units and in deep debilitation gets zero units of Uchcha Bala. In between these two
points, a span of 180 degrees, strength of the planet gets correspondingly
changed or each arc of nine degrees (180/ 20 = 9) accounts for one unit of Uchcha Bala. The method of calculating Uchcha Bala is deduct the deep point of
debilitation of a point from its longitude (starting from Aries) in the Varshaphal. Divide this difference by
nine. It will give the Uchcha Bala of
the planet. If the longitude of the planet is less than its point of deep
debilitation, add 12 sign to the longitude and then deduct. If the difference
between the two is more than six signs,
we should deduct it from 12 signs to get the Uchcha Bala.
In the example chart, the
Sun’s longitude is 4-3-50’. If we deduct the deep debilitation point of Sun
(6-10-0’0 from it, we get 9-23-50’. Since this indicates more than six signs,
subtract it from 12 signs. This will give us 2-6-10’ or 66-10’. Now divide it
by nine, we get a quotient of seven with remainder being three degrees. So
multiply three by 60 and add 10’ to it giving us 190’. Now again divide it by
nine, we get a quotient of 21. So the Uchha Bala of Sun will be 7.21 units.
Similarly the Uchcha Bala of Moon to Saturn will be 19.15. 11.04, 17.02, 2.49,
3.55, and 19.41 respectively.
3.
Hudda Bala: The Hudda is
a special feature of Varshphal and
does not find any use elsewhere in astrology. It is a sort of energy for a
planet. Each sign of 30 degrees is divided
into five parts with a specified/ random number of degrees (Hudda) along with a lord, allotted to
five planets from Mars to Saturn (excluding Sun & Moon). Sun & Moon do
not own any Hudda. The Table of Hudda is as under:

Depending on its longitude
in the Varshphal, a planet falls in
its own Hudda or that of a friend, an
enemy or a neutral. The Hudda bala of
the planet is accordingly worked out as 15, 11.5, 7.50, 3.45 respectively. As
Sun & Moon do not own any Hudda
of their own, they can never have a Bala of 15 units.
Note: It
may be noted that Hudda of Tajika
system as shown above does not conform to any regular pattern. Probably it is
based on personal experience of old Tajika scholars and has withstood the test
of time. It is somewhat akin to the Trimshamsha
of Parashari system, where a sign is divided into five unequal parts and each
part is allotted to planets other than the Sun & the Moon. However any
regularity in pattern within the table is nowhere in evidence. Therefore it is
an area of interesting future research.
The Hudda Bala of planets
in the example chart will be as follows:
