Krishnamurthy System of Astrology (KP Astrology)

Abortion:

1. When counting the number of children, such as the first child being represented by the 5th house cusp, the 2nd child being represented by the 7th house cusp, the third child being represented by the 9th house cusp, etc., what happens when there has been an abortion? Do we count that as a child?

Mistakes made here will give mistakes in predicting correctly the sex of each child and the number of children. When an abortion takes place after 3 months from conception, the fetus is counted as a child because during that abortion, the sex of the child was clearly developed, but when abortion takes place before the completion of the 3 month gestational period, this pregnancy is not taken as a child birth because the sex of the child, prior to that time, is not clear. So this factor must be clearly known for an astrologer to fix both the sex of the child, and the correct number of children that the mother will deliver.

Accidents:

1. Consider houses 8 and 12 for accidents: 8^th serious illness, accident, suicide; 12^th – self-undoing, confinement in bed or hospital, defects, deformities, amputation or mutilation of a limb, bodily injury. Mars, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu cause accidents.

2. If the sub lord of either the Ascendant or the 8th house cusp is posited in the star of the occupant or the owner of the 8th or 12th house, there will be an accident.

3. The danger to the individual's life will likely prove fatal if the sub lord is in the star of either the occupant or the owner of the 8th, 7th, or 2nd.

4. The individual will survive the accident if the sub lord is in the star of either the occupant or owner of the 2nd, 7th, and 11th.

Adoption:

1. What indicators show adoption in a chart?

An individual who has been denied children will opt for adopting a child if the 5th cuspal sub lord and Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Mars, and Moon, are connected to the 4th, 8th, and 12th houses.

Badhaka Houses:

1. The badhaka houses are houses that are harmful to life, and badhaka houses are more harmful for life than maraka houses. The badhaka houses are the 11th for those born in Cardinal (moveable) signs, the 9th for those born in Fixed signs, and the 7th for those born in Mutable (dual) signs.

2. For death, first consider the badhaka houses, and then the maraka houses as dangerous for the native, as there is danger to life during the joint period (dasha/bhukti) of the significators of the badhaka and maraka houses

Barren Signs:

1.Aries, Gemini, Leo, and Virgo are called the barren or sterile signs.

2. Barren signs on the cusps of the 5th and 11th houses (11th being 5th to the partner) and the lords of these not posited in fruitful signs, the Moon not in a fruitful sign, the lagna not in a fruitful sign, the lord of the lagna not posited in a fruitful sign, and no fruitful planet in the 5th or 11th house, are indications of no children.

Constructing a Building:

1. If the cuspal sub lord of the 4th is the significator of the 4th, 11th, or 12th, one will have his own building during the joint period of the significators of the 4th, 11th, and 12th.

Death:

1. When Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu simultaneously transit in the stars and subs of the badhaka and maraka significators in the birth chart - during a particular year in question - the native is likely to suffer from serious illness.

2. When Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu simultaneously transit in the stars and subs of the badhaka and maraka significators of the spouse in the birth chart - during a particular year in question - the native's spouse is likely to suffer from serious illness.

3. The sub lord of the lagna rising is known to have a mysterious link with death. While judging death, it is invariably found that the sub lord of the lagna rising - whether it be for a horoscope cast for the birth time or for a prashna(within 249), it has an intimate relation with the time of death - for example - its period, sub period, or sub sub period must be connected with the time of death.

Disease and Cure:

1. If the sub lord of the 6th cusp is in the star of the occupant or owner of the 6th or 1st, the native may suffer from disease.

2. Consider the 6th house for sickness or disease. For cure, consider the 1st, 5th, and 11th:

1^st- health, 5^th is 12^th to the 6th - or absence of sickness, 11^th is 12^th to 12 - or absence of bedridden sickness.Divorce:

1. Consider houses 1, 6 and 10 for separation or divorce (being 12^th from 2nd, 7th, and 11th respectively). These houses denote absence of married life.

Education

1. Houses 4, 9, and 11 are for education or studies, while 3 and 8 address completion, negation, or denial of studies.

2. If the sub lord is the occupant or owner of the 4th, 9th, or 11th; or is in the star of the occupant or owner of the 4th, 9th, and 11th; or is in conjunction or in aspect with the significator of the 4th, 9th, or 11th, it is said to be harmonious to the matters of the 4th, 9th, and 11th.

3. In other words, if the sub lord is the significator of the 4th, 9th, or 11th it is said to be harmonious to and connected with the matters of the 4th, 9th, and 11th.

4. If the sub lord is the significator of the 3rd or the 8th, it is detrimental to the matters of the 4th, 9th, and 11th and it is said to be connected with the 3rd and 8th.

Employment:

1. If the cuspal sub lord of the 6th or 10th is the significator of the 2nd, 6th, or 10th, service or earning ability is promised during the joint period (dashas) of the significators of the 2nd, 6th, and 10th.

Eyesight/Vision

1. Sun, Moon, and Venus denote vision, while Mercury governs the nervous system.

2. Consider the 2nd (right eye), the 12th (left eye; defect), the 6th (disease), and the 8th (danger).

3. If the sub lord of the 12th cusp is the significator of the 6th, 8th, or 12th, then only during the joint period (dashas) of the significators of the 2nd and the 12th, the eye sight becomes defective.

4. If the Sun, Moon, or Venus is:

(a) The sub lord of the 12th cusp and

(b) The significator of the 2nd or 12th

Then there is a greater possibility of defective vision.

5. Eyesight might be lost during the periods of Sun, Moon, or Venus if:

(a) Sun, Moon, or Venus is the significator of the 2md or 12th and

(b) Its sub lord is connected with the Sun, Moon, or Venus and the 12th.

6. Eyesight might be lost during the periods of a planet if:

(a) Its star lord is Sun, Moon, or Venus, and

(b) Its sub lord is connected with Sun, Moon, or Venus, and the 12th.

Finance & Prosperity

(a) Profession/service: Consider the houses 2,6 and 10 ( 2^nd bank balance, self acquisition;6^th services rendered, day to day attendance on duty and thereby earning; being 12^th from the 7^th denotes loss to others and gain to self, hence receiving money from others;10^th profession, either in independent vocation or in service). Sun is the chief governor of profession.

(e) Consider the houses 1, 8, 9&12 for suspension from service 1^st is 12^th from the 2^nd- absence of self earning; 8^th suspension is one form of penalty; 9^th is 12^th from 10^th-absence of status, position, power and name; 12^th – loss in general).

(f) Consider the houses 1, 5, 9 and 12 for retirement from service or dismissal; or loss of status in any walk of life (5^th is the 12^th from 6 i.e. absence of regular attendance on duty); also consider the house 8 if the native comes under the scheme of gratuity and provident fund.

Finance:

(a) Consider the houses 2, 6 and 11 for gain of money any manner.

(b) Consider the houses 2, 3, 6 and 11 for gain of lottery (3^rd lottery and help from others).

(c) Consider the houses 2, 5, 6 and 11 for gain from speculation 2^nd race (5^th-inclination for speculation for speculation).

Jupiter is the chief governor of money.

Foreign Travel:

1. If the sub lord of the 12th cusp is the significator of the 3rd, 9th, or 12th, and especially of the 9th, then foreign travel will be promised during the joint period (dashas) of the significators of the 3rd, 9th, and 12th.

(a) Consider the houses 3, 9 and 12 for foreign travels (3^rd is 12^th from 4^th i.e. away from the permanent place; 9^th long journey, foreign travel. 12^th- life in an unknown place or completely unfamiliar atmosphere).

(b) Consider the houses 3, 9 and 11 for returning to home country from foreign land (11^th meeting ones own kith and kin, reunion of relatives)

Moon is the chief governor of journey.

Fruitful Signs:

1. Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces are all fruitful in nature: all watery signs are fruitful.

2. Taurus, Libra, Capricorn and Sagittarius are said to be semi-fruitful.

3. Fruitful signs on the cusps of the 5th and 7th houses and their lords posited in fruitful signs, are indications of an early union.

4. Barren signs on the cusps of the 5th and 1st houses indicate that the native is not likely to marry in time (provided other testimonies also point to the same view).

5. Fruitful signs on the cusps of the 11th and 5th houses, and the lords of the 5th and 11th posited in fruitful signs, promise children.

6. Barren signs on the cusps of the 1st, 5th, and 11th, or the lords of these posited in barren signs, lessen the chances of children.

Houses:

The material below is an excerpt from Bhatt's Nakshatra Chintamani

Grouping of Houses

Longevity

1. Consider houses 1, 8 and 3 for longevity

2. [a] Maraka Houses. The 12^th to any particular house denotes non-existance of the matter signified by that particular house. So the houses 12 (12^th to 1), 7 (12th to 8) and 2 (12^th to 3) are known as the maraka (death dealing) houses

[b] Badhaka houses. The house 11 is badhaka (harmful to life) to those born in Moveable signs as their Ascendants; the 9^th for those born in Fixed signs and 7^th for those born in Common signs

3. Death. The Badhaka houses are more harmful than the Maraka houses. So for death consider first the Badhaka house and then Maraka houses. Saturn is the chief governor of longevity.

Ascendant is in the star of the occupant of the 1st or the 11th, the health is normal.

2. If the sub lord of the ascendant is is in the star of the occupant or owner of the 6th (disease and sickness), the 8th (danger to life), or the 12th (bedridden illness), this is not good for matters of health.

Horary/Prashna Charts

Erecting the Prashna/Horary Chart:

1. If a person comes to you for a consultation about a specific question, ask him/her to give you a number from 1 to 249. The number given to you is taken as the Ascendant, and from the number you can find out the sign, star and sub. (Most astrological software programs allow you to enter the Prashna/Horary number either in the data entry screen or on a separate worksheet, so the manual work is as easy as selecting a number on your keyboard, while the software calculates the chart for you.) If you are constructing a chart manually, say your client has picked the number 145. There you will see that the sign is Libra from 29 degrees 26 minutes 40 seconds to 30 degrees 00 minutes 00 seconds in the star of Vishaka, star lord is Jupiter, and sub lord is Moon. So take 29:26:40 Libra as the Ascendant, grab your Table of Houses and Panchang, and continue constructing the chart by hand from there.

2. If you do not want to use the system of selecting a number from 1 to 249, you may instead elect to construct the chart for the moment you wish to work on the chart, giving your judgment just as you would for an ordinary horoscope. This chart should be erected for the place that you are working on the chart at the time of judgment.

Judging the Prashna/Horary:

The Moon is the mind, so in the Prashna Chart, the mind of the client is shown by the position of the Moon, and it also assists in knowing the nature of the question asked.

Generally the Moon, or its star lord or its sub lord, occupies or owns the house under question OR the Moon is connected with the house in question by conjunction or association with (by aspect) the owner or occupant of the house in question, or from the chief karaka of the matter asked about.

Fulfillment of a Query:

Planet Direct or Retrograde: Ordinarily in the prashna chart, a planet in direct motion will give the results, so a retrograde planet can give results only when it goes direct in motion, and when it crosses the point from where it initially turned retrograde. (Note: This theory is subject to modification according to experience in individual cases, as it does not always prove to be the case. Furthermore, the meaning of a retrograde planet is to be interpreted according to the nature of the question on each case.)

Cuspal Sub Lord:

1. (a) The cuspal sub lord of a house under question indicates whether the matter signified by that house is promised or not.

(b) The matter is promised if the cuspal sub lord is the significator (for example, in the star of the occupant or the owner) of that house or any one of the houses under consideration.

(d) If the star lord (of this cuspal sub lord) is retrograde, the matter is not denied, but it will not materialize during the Mahadasha, Bhukti, or Pratyantardasha of this cuspal sub lord. however, it materializes during the dasha sequence of another significator (of the matter under question) whose star lord is direct in motion.

(e) As each house denotes several particular matters, the chief governor of the matter under question may be taken into account, and it should be connected with the star lord of the cuspal sub lord of the house under question.

2. (a) In the Prashna Chart, the Ascendant indicates the efforts of the querent, while the 11th cusp shows the fulfillment of their desires or success in general.

(b) So if the cuspal sub lord of the Ascendant or the 11th cusp is the significator of the matter in question, the querent gets success in general.

(c) If the cuspal sub lord of the Ascendant or the 11th cusp is posited in house 1, 2, 3, 6, 10, or 11, or if it is in the star of the occupant of house 1, 2, 3, 6, 10, or 11, the querent gets success in all undertakings. (The Ascendant denotes success in one's efforts, the 2nd denotes monetary gain, the 3rd denotes help from others, the 6th, being 12th to the 7th, indicates loss to the other and gain to the querent, the 10th denotes reputation, and the 11th denotes profits and gain. so these particular houses are beneficial to the querent in general).

Significators:

1. (a) The significators show the time of an event.

(b) So note the significators of the house or houses which represent the matter asked.

(c) Reject the significators which are in the star of a retrograde planet (because it cannot, during its period or sub period, give the results of its star lord).

(d) Out of these significators, give preference to those significators which are found among the following planets:

(1) Ruling Planets

(2) The sign lord, star lord, and sub lord of the cusp of the house under query.

(3) The cuspal sub lords of the houses under consideration.

(4) The joint period rulers (dashas) at the time of judgment. discretion should be used while selecting the significators from the above planets.

(e) The query will materialize during the joint period (dashas) of these significators when the transit agrees.

Transit:

At the time of the event, Sun, Moon and/or the joint period rulers (dasha rulers) will be found in the star or sub of the same joint period ruler or rulers.

Imprisonment/Incarceration:

1. Imprisonment first and foremost must include a separation from the home or domestic residence - so a change of residence should be very evident (12th from the 4th - or 3rd house) if she is to be convicted, while at the opposite end (no prison sentence) the 2nd shows a life with family members (11th from the 4th).

2, Restricted movements and confinement will be indicated by the 12th house and all connections to the 12th. Malefics occupying the constellations of the planets posited in the 2nd and 12th, the occupants of these two houses owning malefic houses, malefic planets in the constellations of the lords of these houses, along with the lords of these houses - would all threaten sentencing to include imprisonment/incarceration. If the lord of the 1st is also connected with any of these houses - then this also supports a contention that imprisonment is a strong possibility.

3, Rahu is a chief significator for jail, so a malefic in the 2nd or 12th in the star or sub of Rahu - and connected with the 2nd or 12th - supports a sentence involving prison. Favorable aspects to the significators of the 12th house and/or the 12th cusp, and hard aspects to the significators of the 2nd house and/or 2nd cusp can also suggest an unfavorable outcome - such as imprisonment.

Independent Business:

1. If the cuspal sub lord of the 10th is the significator of the 2nd, 7th, or 10th, an independent business or profession is promised during the joint period of the significators of the 2nd, 7th, and 10th.

2. If the cuspal sub lord of the 7th is the significator of the 2nd, 10th or 11th, gain in business is promised during the joint period of the significators of the 2nd, 10th, and 11th.

3. Consider the houses 2, 7 and 10 (7^th is dealings with others, purchase and sale of production; it is the main house for business).

Intuition:

1. Only when the Moon and Mercury have harmonious aspects can one have clear exposition, proper wording, good vocabulary, and intuition. The 9th house, lord, significator, and sub, aspects, etc., should also be examined for intuition..

2. Moon is called the mind. It is like a mirror - exactly reflecting the object.

3. Mercury is for supreme intelligence, as it governs the central nervous system. It is like a lens.

4. Therefore whenever these two planets form or receive favorable aspects, they give high imagination, linguistic capabilities, keen observation, intuitive perception, quick grasp, retentive power, reproductive ability fluency of speech, and general success - especially in astrology.

5. So those who have strong Mercury aspects will thoroughly analyze, properly apply, and correctly predict.

Leaving a Job:

1. If the sub lord of the 10th or 6th cusp is the significator of the 1st, 5th, or 9th, the querent can leave service during the joint period of the significators of the 1st, 5th, and 9th. These significators are generally connected with the houses of service, which are the 2nd, the 6th, and the 10th.

Litigation:

1. According to KP, the 6th house represents litigation, and the 7th house indicates the opponent in litigation.

2. Therefore, litigation would be imminent whenever the significators of the 6th and 7th houses are operating in life.

3. The cause of the litigation is represented by the planets connected with - or associated with - the 6th house or its lord.

4. Success in litigation is promised by the lord of the 11th house or planets in the 11th house. Success is also ensured if the 6th and the 7th houses come under the influence of the lords of the stars or the occupants of the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 6th, 10th and 11th houses.

5. If the lord of the 6th house is connected with the 11th house, or the 11th house is connected with the lord of the 6th house, success in litigation is realized.

6. The above (#5) also suggests that the connection of the lords of the 12th and 5th houses will cause failure in absolute terms.

Longevity:

1.What are the indications for full longevity?

1. Look at the sub lord of the Ascendant. If this sub lord is posited in the star of a planet who is in the 1st, 5th, 9th or 10th, or owns any of these houses, this tells us that the chart owner has a long life.

2. To make this a bit clearer, if the sub lord of the Ascendant is not in the nakshatra of either the dispositor of - or lords of - the Maraka Sthanas (2nd or 7th) or Badhakas (11th house for Cardinal signs rising, 9th house for Fixed signs rising, and 7th house for Mutable signs rising), a long life is indicated.

3. Harmonious indicators for longevity are judged by houses 1, 3, and 8, while houses 2, 7, and 12 - along with the badhaka house, are detrimental for longevity.

4. If the cuspal sub lord of the Ascendant is the significator of the badhaka and maraka houses, the life is short.

5. If the cuspal joint rulers (the sign lord, the star lord, and the sub lord) of the Ascendant or the 8th house cusp are the significators of the badhaka and maraka houses, their joint period is very critical for life.

Lost Documents:

If the cuspal sub lord of the 2nd or the 11th is the significator of the 2nd (movable article which is lost or stolen), the 6th (loss to thief, being 12th to the 7th-thief), or the 11th (regaining), movable property will be regained during the joint period of the significator of the 2nd, 6th, and 11th.

Maraka Houses:

1. The 1st, the 8th, and the 3rd are the houses of longevity, and Saturn is the chief governor of longevity..

2. The 12th to any particular house denotes non-existence of the matter signified by that particular house. the 12th house (12th to the 1st), the 7th house (12th to the 8th), and the 2nd house (12th to the 3rd) are known as the Maraka - or death inflicting houses.

3. The Badhaka Houses are more harmful than the Maraka Houses. So when assessing death, first consider the Badhaka house, and then the maraka house.

Marriage/ Denial of Marriage/Love Affairs

Houses 2, 7, and 11 are for Marriage; while 1, 6, and 10 are for Denial of Marriage.

1. Consider the 2nd, 7th, and 11th for marriage (2^nd addition to family; 7^th wife or husband, legal tie. It is the main house for marriage; 11^th respectively).

2. Consider houses 1, 6 and 10 for separation or divorce (being 12^th from 2nd, 7th, and 11th respectively). These houses denote absence of married life.

3. Venus is the chief governor/karaka of marriage.

4. If the sub lord is the significator of the 2nd, 7th, or 11th, it is said to be harmonious to, and connected with, the matters of the 2nd, 7th, and 11th.

5. If the sub lord of the 7th cusp is the significator (in the star of the occupant or owner) of the 1st, 6th or 10th, or connected with the 1st, 6th, 10th, Saturn, Rahu, or Ketu; barren or in sterile signs (Aries, Gemini, Leo, Virgo, or Capricorn), it denies marriage.

6. If the sub lord of the 5th cusp (love affairs) is the significator of or connected with the 2nd or 11th, it shows a love affair, and if it is connected with Rahu or Ketu, the love affair is with a person belonging to a different caste, creed, or province.

7. If the sublord of the 7th (marriage) is the significator (in the star of the occupant or owner) of the 5th or 11th, or connected with the 5th or 11th, it denotes marriage with the person in the love affair, and if it is connected with Rahu or Ketu, it denotes marriage with the person who belongs to a different caste, creed, or province.

8. If Venus is connected with Rahu or Ketu, it denotes marriage with the person belonging to a different caste, creed, or province.

9. If the sub lord of the 7th cusp is the significator or connected to the 2nd, 7th, or 11th, the native marries during the joint periods (dashas) of the significators of the 2nd (additions to the family), the 7th (wife or husband; legal tie) and 11th (permanent tie of friendship).

Mental Qualities:

The sub lord of the Ascendant, Moon, and Mercury denote mental qualities. If they are in the star and sub of malefics connected with the 6th, 8th, or 12th, they signify conspiracy, criminal, diplomatic, malicious, revengeful, relentless, shrewd, crafty, and intriguing traits.

Missing Person:

Consider the 3rd, the 9th, and the 12th for the missing person (counting from his Ascendant), and the 2nd, 8th, and 11th (being 12th to the 3rd, 9th, and 12th) for the person to return home.

Mute Signs:

1. Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces are mute signs.

2. If Mercury lording the 6th is posited in the 2nd house in a mute sign, or the lord of the 6th is posited in the 2nd in a mute sign afflicted by Mars or saturn, perceptible stammer, lisp, or other impediment will be the result.

3. Mercury anywhere in mute signs afflicted by Saturn, causes stammer.

4. If Mars adds his influence by bad aspect, then the native will talk very fast, lisp, or pronounce his words badly.

5. When Mercury happens to be in a mute sign in opposition to the Moon, the native will have a defect in speech.

6. Saturn in the lagna in a mute sign causes a speech impediment.

7. The 2nd house governs vocal organs. If a voice sign (Gemini, Libra, or Aquarius are called musical or voice signs; some western authors consider Virgo and Sagittarius also - some also include Taurus) is found in the 2nd house in a horoscope, especially if Venus or Mercury is posited there and free from affliction, then eloquence or some vocal gift may be predicted. Jupiter indicates that one will offer advice, preach, and/or will be a platform speaker. Mars and Jupiter give the native assertion, making him an orator who can move the masses by his fiery speech. Mercury and Saturn show that he will modify his speech according to the time, circumstances, and crowd before him

News:

1. If the cuspal sub lord of the 3rd (news) is the significator (in the star of the occupant or owner) of the 3rd and the 11th, the querent will hear news.

Overseas for Studies:

If the cuspal sub lord of the 12th is the significator of the 3rd, 9th, or 12th, foreign travel is promised during the joint period of the significators of the 3rd, 9th, and 12th.

Overseas Travel:

Houses to be judged for traveling abroad are the 3rd, 9th, and 12th - and if the career or profession is involved, we must also include the 10th.

Significators:

1. Planets - including the nodes - posited in the star of the occupants of the 3rd, 9th, and 12th.

2. The occupants of these houses.

3. The planets - including the nodes - that are posited in the stars of the lords ruling the 3rd, 9th, and 12th.

4. The lords of these houses.

5. The planets conjoined with or aspected by any of the significators.

Questions:

1. Why do we judge the 3rd house?

Because to go overseas, one has to leave his permanent place of residence. The 3rd is the12th house from the 4th house of residence.

2. Why is the 9th house involved?

Long journeys are indicated by the 9th house.

3. What about the 12th house?

When one travels overseas, he stays in a foreign place. This means he will live in entirely new surroundings - in a new environment.

4. And when do we include the 10th house?

If one is traveling overseas relative to one's career or profession, we then also look at the 10th house. However if the trip involves gambling, betting, etc., look at the 5th house. If one is traveling overseas for marriage, look at the 7th house. If one travels overseas to speak - or for lecture purposes - such as conventions, look at the 2nd house.

Part of Fortune

1. The Part of Fortune (PF) is calculated by adding the longitude of the Ascendant plus the Moon minus the Sun.

To calculate PF: Say that in a given chart the Ascendant is posited at 06 degrees Pisces 21 minutes, the Moon is posited at 27 degrees Leo 40 minutes, and the Sun is posited at 00 degrees Scorpio 01. We then have:

336 degrees 21' (Asc: 06 Pisces 21')

+ 147 degrees 40' (Moon 27 Leo 41')

_______________________________

= 483 degrees 62 minutes

- 210 degrees 01' (Sun: 00 Scorpio 01')

________________________________

273 degrees 60' = 274 degrees

274 = 04 degrees Capricorn 00'

2. For transit results, the Part of Fortune deserves serious attention. Often times the PF indicates certain results which are not so apparent when looking solely at the aspects formed by the transits to the natal planets.

3. The calculated points in a chart (Ascendant and Midheaven) change quickly - as does the Part of Fortune. Consider the effects of the aspects produced from these points - as they change rapidly - and therefore will be the determining factor for assessing differences when considerations are given for births that occur within a tight time frame of one another. Different aspects produce different results, and therefore the PF should be included in your chart assessments to both fine tune predictions and account for the experiences with respect to different life circumstances/events for individuals born within a few minutes of one another.

Planetary Effects:

1. In KP, how are we to judge how the planets will react in any given situation?

A planet moving in a star is primarily under the influence of the lord of that star, and the planet will predominately give the results of the house the star lord occupies, in addition to the house(s) owned by the star lord. Then, the planet itself will offer the results of the house it occupies and the house(s) it owns. Assess both the star lord and the planet to determine the nature of the event.

Political Career:

Saturn denotes diplomacy; Sun government, power, position, name, and fame; Jupiter dignity and wisdom; Mars coercion, controlling power and dominance; Rahu politics and government.

Leo, Sagittarius, Capricorn, and Aquarius; cardinal signs; angular houses, houses 9, 10, and 11 are to be considered for cases of politics and public life.

Ascendant denotes inclinations; 10th house cusp ambitions; 11th cusp realization of ambitions and aspirations, success in general.

So if the sub lord of the Ascendant, 10th cusp and 11th cusp are strong significators of the 9th, 10th, and 11th, the native plunges into public life, or he shines as a statesman or politician.

It should also be remembered that a planet owning both the Trikona and Kendra gives prosperity in general.

Pregnancy:

Is my daughter pregnant?

1. If the cuspal sub lord of the 5th:

(a) Occupies the fruitful sign of Cancer, Scorpio, or Pisces, and

(b) Is the significator of the 2nd, 5th, or 11th,

Then the woman under concern is pregnant.

2. If the cuspal sub lord of the 5th :

(a) Occupies the barren sign of Aries, Gemini, Leo, or virgo, and

(b) is in the starof the planet in the barren sign

Then the woman under concern is not pregnant.

Promotion:

Better prospects, honor, prestige, and rank are to be studied from the 10th house, and an increase in income - as well as other benefits - are to be judged from the 11th house. The 2nd and 6th houses are to be considered anytime the question is relative to the profession.

The order in which we have to select the significators according to their strength is as follows:

1. The planets posited in the star of the occupants of the 2nd, 6th, 10th or 11th.

2. The planets posited in the 2nd, 6th, 10th, or 11th.

3. The planets posited in the stars of the lords of the 2nd, 6th, 10th or 11th.

4. The lords of the above houses.

5. The planets conjoined with the strong significators.

6. The planets aspected by the strong significators.

7. Rahui or Ketu posited in the sign of any of the strong significators.

Houses to be judged for promotions are the 2nd, 6th, 10th and 11th.

Significators:

(Note: Whether Rahu or Ketu is in a sign conjoined with, aspected by, or owned by a planet, then the node is to be both considered and preferred.)

1. Rahu or Ketu, or the planets posited in the star of the occupants of either the 2nd, 6th, 10th, or 11th.

2. The occupants.

3. The node or the planets posited in the star of the owners of the 2nd, 6th, 10th and 11th.

4. the owners.

5. The node or the planets conjoined with any of the significators.

(This rule is universal, simple, scientific, correct, and convincing.)

Question: When can I expect the next promotion?

Based on the above, select the common planets among the significators, and the ruling planets at the moment of judgment, and line up the appropriate dasha sequence (dasha, bhukti, pratyantardasha, and shookshma) to determine when the next promotion will occur.

Publishing a Book:

1. Consider the 3rd and 11th houses for writing and publication of books.

2. If the cuspal sub lord of the 3rd and the 11th is Mercury (writings) or Jupiter (publications), or if it is the significator of the 3rd and the 11th, and if the star lord of this cuspal sub lord is connected with Mercury and Jupiter, the querent can write a book and publish it.

3. During the joint period of the significators of the 3rd and the 11th, the book will be written and published. These significators are generally connected with Mercury (writing), Jupiter (publications), and Mars (printing).

Punarphoo:

What is "Punarphoo"?

It is said that whenever Saturn has any connections with the Moon, obstacles arise giving delays - along with headaches, fears, and anxieties. These uncertainties are caused by the distressing combination of the Sa/Mo connections.

1. Punarphoo is a term for Moon-Saturn aspects in the Natal Chart.

2. Punarphoo pertains to any one of these:

(a) Saturn in the star of the Moon and his own sub,

(b) or Moon is in the star of Saturn and in her own sub,

3. The condition pertains also if the Moon is in the star of Saturn and in the sub of the Moon,

or if the Moon is the 3rd or 10th sign from Saturn, to Saturn's 3rd and 10th aspect from the Moon.

4. Punarphoo also applies to Saturn aspects to the chart in general.

The Cancellation of Punarphoo:

K.P. & Astrology: 1996 Annual

Mr. L.Y.Rao came across the following information (quite accidently) while browsing through old issues of the K.P. Annuals. In this particular article below, the subject of Cancellation of Punarphoo had been discussed by the late Pt. K.R. Kar, issued in the 1996 Annual: K.P. & Astrology, (pages 69-72).

I also personally thank Mr L.Y. Rao, for sharing with us the following information from the Annual.

Cancellation takes place briefly when:

1. Saturn or Moon are found in association with Sun, in one sign. (could be divided into two bhavas).

2. Sun is in the star of either of them.

3. Sun is in a star, lord of which is near either Moon or Saturn.

4. When there is any planet close to the Moon or Saturn, in the star of the Sun.

5. And lastly, Saturn or Moon is in the sub-sub of the Sun.

"It is hoped that the above "Cancellation of Punarphoo" theory will help members to do more research on this interesting subject - which is full of pitfalls for the average follower of K.P."

Qualifications of an Astrologer

The Sage says: "An astrologer should come from a noble family, should be good to look at, modest in temperament, true, impartial, and with good physique. He has to be active and courageous. He should be clear in his statement, witty, sincere, and free from vices. He should have no stage fear. He should worship Devas; observe fast and penance; and must be conversant with astronomy and astrology. In the astronomical science, there are five schools of thought in India:

(1). Paulisa

(2). Romaka Siddhanta

(3). Vasishta

(4). Saura

(5). Paitamaha

The astrologer should be thorough with all the Siddhantas. He must be able to understand the objections and points of differences.”

He asks “How could one who has not understood the spirit of the Sastras, be called an astrologer?” And adds that he is only a fool whose interpretation if just opposite to the principles expounded by our sages and commits mistakes in his calculations. Varahamihira admits “It is easy for anybody to cross a sea if the breeze is favorable. But it is not possible for a person who is not a sage to reach the other shore of the ocean of astrology.”

Varahamihira opines that even sages in forests, free from domestic worry, pride, and prejudice, welcome the astrologer and without hesitation take interest in astrology when they, by chance, meet any wise astrologer.

Rahu and Ketu

1. How can we tell what planet the nodes represent, or what planets the nodes act as agents for in a chart?

Rahu and Ketu are nodes The nodes are always stronger than the planets represented by them.. In the order of importance, the nodes act as agents for:

(a). The planet with whom it is conjoined

(b). The lord of the constellation in which it is disposited

(c). The planet or planets aspecting it

(d). And lastly, the owner of the sign in which it resides.

Retirement:

1. The 1st, 5th, 9th, and 12th signify retirement from service.

2. The 2nd, 6th, and 10th indicate service. So the 12th house to the 2nd, 6th, and 10th, which is the 1st, 5th, and 9th, show the end of service, or retirement.

Retrograde Planets:

1. Should retrograde planets be cause for concern?

In a Natal Chart there is nothing to worry about with respect to whether a planet is in direct or retrograde motion - there is no difference in analysis. Retrograde planets neither lose strength, nor are they harmful.

In a Prashna/Horary Chart, if a retrograde planet is posited in the star of a planet which is in direct motion, it indicates that after an obstacle and/or delay, the matter will materialize when the planet goes direct and passes beyond the point from where the retrograde motion initially began.

However, planets in retrograde motion - if posited in the star of another retrograde planet - or in its own star when retrograde - promise only failure. And planets in direct motion, if posited in the star of a retrograde planet, will not see success.

Rival Competition:

In cases of competition and contests between two rival parties in any walk of life (sports, politics, etc)., if the cuspal sub lord of the 11th house (success) and that of the 6th (defeat to the rival) occupy the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 6th, 10th, or 11th and are in the star of the occupant of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 6th, 10th, or 11th, the team or competitor under query will win the match.

Ruling Planets:

1. Ruling Planets:

Jot down the time and day when a question is put to you or when you construct the horoscope for your analysis and judgment.

The day begins from Sunrise: Day Lords are: Sun governs Sunday, Moon - Monday, Mars - Tuesday, Mercury - Wednesday, Jupiter - Thursday, Venus - Friday, Saturn - Saturday.

The Ruling Planets are listed below in their Order of Preference:

1. The star lord of the Ascendant

2. The sign lord of the Ascendant

3. The star lord of the Moon

4. The sign lord of the Moon

5. The Day Lord

(These 5 Ruling Planets above are taken at the time of query or judgment).

Rahu/Ketu and Ruling Planets::

If Rahu or Ketu is conjoining or aspects a Ruling Planet, or if Rahu or Ketu is posited in a sign owned by one of the Ruling Planets, then Rahu and/or Ketu should be included as a Ruling Planet.

The Ruling planet which is in the star or sub of a retrograde planet should be omitted.

Saint:

1. Sun - spirit; Moon - mind; Jupiter - morals, religion and philosophy; Saturn - meditation, renunciation, penance; Ketu - spiritualism, sainthood.

Houses 4, 8, and 12; Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces, show spiritual tendencies. The 9th house and Sagittarius denote morals, devotion, philosophy, religion, intuition, farsightedness. The 5th house denotes spiritual practice. the 12th house denotes self-sacrifice, seclusion, renunciation, emancipation.

2. (a) If the sub lord of the Ascendant (out look) is the significator (in the star of the occupant or owner) of the 3rd (mental tendencies), the 10th (aims) and the 12th (renunciation), or connected with the 3rd, 10th or 12th and Saturn, the native leans toward renunciation.

(b) If the sub lord of the 11th cusp (fulfillment of desires) is the significator (in the star of the occupant or owner) of the 5th and 10th or connected with the 5th and 10th, the native achieves spiritual attainment.

Scholarship:

1. If the cuspal sub lord of the 11th is the significator of the 2nd (money), the 6th (scholarship), or the 11th (gain), and connected with the 4th house (studies), the native gets the scholarship for studies during the joint periods (dashas) of the significators of the 2nd, 6th, and 11th which are connected with the 4th.

Second Marriage:

1. What cuspal sub lord determines the second marriage of a person?

The 2nd cuspal sub lord and its dispositor shows the 2nd marriage.

2. How do we know if a second marriage is indicated?

If the 7th cuspal sub lord is the Sun, and posited in the star of Mercury (owner of a dual sign), a second marriage is indicated.

Selling a House:

1. When will I be able to sell my home?

If the cuspal sub lord of the 10th (house going to the buyer) is the significator (in the star of the occupant or owner) of the 3rd (parting with the house; 12th from 4th) or 10th house, the house can be sold during the joint period (dasha, bhukti, pratyantardasha) of the significators of the 3rd, 5th, and 10th.

Significators of Health/Disease:

1. Ascendant: The degree rising on the cusp of the Ascendant is of great importance in judging the health. It rules the body. The bodily strength and its power of resisting disease may be judged from the Ascendant.

2. Sun: It rules the vitality, constitution of the body, and hereditary traits.
