COMPONENT OF ASTROLOGY
In the world, in every place, the sun rise is at different time and the time told differs at
every place and by one degree of longitude it makes a difference of 4 min.
The real time at that place, where the native is born is known as ishtkal. By taking out the
difference of time from the time zone to that place we can calculate the Actual time of
birth.
It is also known as local time the Ishtakal is taken out. For that, it is necessary to know
the time of birth. The time of birth (as per Zonal time)and the time according to the Sun
at that particular place of birth i.e. longitude and latitude.

7 objects which are seen from earth and from earth to which we feel are moving around
the person, born in earth, are known as planets. Two other planets, which are the
Visionary cross point of path of Moon and Sun are known as Rahu and Ketu. Hence there
are total 9 planets, which are Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu,
Ketu.

RETROGRADE PLANETS
This is only a visionary phenomenon as this occurs due to different speeds of the planets
in relation to the earth. The effects on a natal chart are due to fixed angular position of
planets with reference to a particular place on the earth for a particular time, natal or
transit.
Many texts has been written in this issue, and most of them are nicely backed by
examples, logic and convincing arguments. As far as retro gradation is concern, except
Moon, Venus and mercury, whichever planet comes from 150 degree to 210 degree from
sun are retrograded, and Sun cover 1 house in one month. Which clearly means more
then 33% of world population must have at least one planet retrograded in his or her
horoscope, but by taking one or two thousands examples does not cover 0.00001% of
survey. But such thing has been made a lot of panic in public and excuse for an astrologer
due to which, he can escape from his wrong analysis.
Nomenclature of Houses
Neutral Houses
The second, third and eleventh houses are called neutral houses.
Nature of Houses
Angles and trines are auspicious houses while dusthanas are inauspicious houses. Neutral
houses, too, can be considered good houses as they have tremendous positive
contribution to make.
Zodiac is much different then the House. Houses are fixed and zodiac moves as needles
moves in a clock. Similarly planets moves but houses remain in on their place. By this we
can understand many things as we can tells the time by seeing clock, similarly we can tell
the time of birth by this horoscope type of clock. Sun rises from eastern direction and
then moves to little higher above to horizon then to our head then goes down to western
horizon. In the same way in morning it is in 1st house then goes to 12th house then to
11th house and in mid day it reaches to 10th house of the horoscope. After ward it goes
toward 9th house and to western horizon of 8th house and sets in west which is 7th house.
It is as simple as a clock. Then again moves to another side of globe and moves toward
mid night and again comes to eastern direction and new day starts from first house or new
dawn.
The Impact on a house made by different planets reduces or increases the PROSPERITY
OF A HOUSE or Weight of a House: The prosperity of the house which is conjunct or is
aspect by a benefic or when its lord is in youth stage or in matured or in above to infant
along with glittering with the light of Sun. Even if a planet is retro gate but glittering with
the rays of Sun gives good impact. The house, which is not accepted by its lord or whose
lord is with a malefic planet or with one of the lords of evil and such other houses (i.e.
6th, 8th, and 12th) or in still stage never gives any good effect to anyone. Here is a lot of
confusion about the strong or strength of planet. It is very simple to know which planet is
strong, the planet which is vargottam, or is getting in same zodiac or house again and
again in all the 16 charts is strongest and youth. Reaching to youth age means getting
power, reaching to decay side means dying, while dying it shows reduced good impact.
The decayed planet never be able to show any good or bad impact. The planet which is
near to Sun in horoscope or is decayed, then also it never be able to give any good
impact, even if it is best in Vargottam. Each type of chart (except moon chart) is a varga
and getting higher or more time in his own or exalted place means more stronger planet.
On the same time it is also observed that if such thing appears in any horoscope get help
from other combination, so that the cycle of life get uplift in other aspect of life.
The health or well being of a house is assured under the following conditions:
(a) the house that contains a benefic or owner of that zodiac.
(b) The house that is accepted by a benefic or strong planet.
The house whose lord is in youth state or young state. These two states are among the 5
states, (infant, young, youth, old and decayed). All stars decays when it reaches 6 degree
to SUN.
(c) Matured state is one another name for awakened state. This applies to a planet it is in
its own sign or in exaltation sign. But more then 6 degree away from sun. The house
occupied by an exalted planet or placed in own sign makes the house more healthy.
(d) Luminaries also effect the house very negatively and in such cases these luminaries
should not be there in such house. It is true that a planet owing two houses if placed in
own house, makes or develops only one house not the another, and it is the reason that a
person can get only one thing either fame in outside home of inside home. Average or
middle one are the best who enjoys both and get pain from both side. But according to
Parashar it gives strength to both the houses and simultaneously, its another house also
gets strengthened by virtue of such a placement.
For example, Mars owns the 3rd and 9th for Leo ascendant (fist house is also known as
Lagan or Lagn or Ascendant) and if it is in the 3rd house then it will give good result to
brothers, courage etc. as it is placed in 3rd house as a lord of 3rd house as well as as the
lord of 9th house. but for 9th house it is not a helping one and luck never favors to such
person but his own courage and strength helps him.
(e) The house owned by a planet placed in the 10th and 11th from the ascendant will
produce good results.
The poor or malefic impact or ignorance of the house which is conjunct or is aspect by a
malefic and or when its lord is in decay or near to sun or not getting light from Sun and
retrogate. Even if a planet is in exalted but decayed then it never be able to give good
result, specially if Saturn or Venus are with Sun even if they are exalted they bring much
pain in the life of native and he never be able to get good gain in life. The house, whose
lord is placed in 6th, 8th, and 12th house except in the case of hurdle creator planets,
gives malefic impact on that house.
The hurdle creator planets are
When these planets get placed in some other house other then 6th, 8th, and 12th house
they give malefic impact to that house. In case of 6th, 8th and 12th house they gives very
good impact.
Following are the conditions when we can understand the malefic impact on the house:
(a) According to Parashar the house not getting aspect by its lord, never get any
flourishing time. It is understood that each house cannot be under the aspect of its lord.
Then this does not mean that the house will suffer ignorance, but most of the house gets
partial aspect of the planet. It only means that it will not get any additional support from
its lord. If a malefic relation is existing for a house, its lord's aspect on the malefic planet,
it gives unknown help of cosmos to the person, like by excess sense of sixth sense.
(b) The lord of a house have any relation with a malefic planet is a negative sign for
characteristic of the house. Even if that malefic is a friendly planet to the house lord or if
they join in favorable houses, then the evil effect does not vanished but of course reduced
up to a limit of half of its impact.
(c) The lord of a house in conjunction with the lord of 6th, 8th, and 12th always gives
wrong result. But if the lord if ascendant and 8th house or Ascendant and 12th house or
Ascendant and 6th house are same, or these house are having Venus on it back or 12th
from them, then get the person get benefit from cosmos.
(d) Normally, in most of the text it is mentioned that when two planets are on the same
degree there occur a war and the one with lesser longitude is declared winner. The
luminaries do not enter into war. It is the area which is beyond understanding, planets are
not human or Don who can have war, but it mixes the impact of each other such as blue +
yellow makes green.
(e) When the house lord is in decaying stage or old age it becomes ineffective from the
giving any good or bad impact. According to Parashar 18 to 24 is degree from Sun means
the old age of planet and many other sage said 60 and 120 is the degree of old age. But
we have seen that 6 to 12 degree are the degrees when a planet, except Mercury, do not
give good result.
The Sun is known as the king in the planetary SENET or LAGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY.
It is the source of light to the universe. It is also the source of life and in vedic astrology it
is identified as father, which is the source for bringing into existence and supporting a
new-born in life. That is why the Sun signifies father and vitality. If the Sun is strong in a
horoscope, the father and vitality will help a native to grow in a healthy way.
The Sun also signifies kings, male relations (like-male progeny, and husband), status in
life, heart, stomach, bones, brain, right eye (male) and left eye in the case of females. His

person then, the mother always be having sufficient resources and brings up the child and
develop mental faculties in a peaceful manner. It gives a native capability of looking after
i.e. including the fields of training, public relations, and administration. Depending upon

PERIOD OF PLANETS
Dasas/Periods of Planets
According of many schools of Vedic Astrology, there are many kinds of Dasa or periods.
Amongst them Vimsottari is the most appropriate in Kaliyug (Present Yug, yug means
major time phase, is known as Kaliyug, there are total number of Yugs) as it convers the
seconds and fraction of time in the 7th inner Stage of sooksham Dasa.
Following Dasa are also mentioned in some Sholokas of Vedic time Sage.
1. Chara Dasa
2. Sthira Dasa
3. Kendra Dasa
4. Karaka Dasa
5. Brahmagraha Dasa
6. Mandook Dasa
7. Shool Dasa
8. Yogardha Dasa
9. Drig Dasa
10. Trikona Dasa
11. Rasi Dasa
12. Panchswara Dasa
13. Yogini Dasa
14. Pinda Dasa
15. Naisargi Dasa
16. Ashtavarga Dasa
17. Sandhya Dasa
18. Pachaka Dasa
19. Tara Dasa
In ancient time different Sage as used these dasa but only Astotari Dasa, yogini Dasa are
surviving now but very few people knows about the basis of all these dasas. We are
trying to revive the base of each kind of Dasa which are based on nakshatras
(constellations), just similar to Vimsottari Dasa. Most of the above Dasa in 2nd kind of
dasa are much related to natives question, time of question and its comparision with the
present shookshm dasa. As all these dasa's were requring a long methametical
calculations and deeper knowledge so the knowledge about these dasa started loosing
grounds and gradually vanished.
It is very interesting to mention here that the among the first person who wrote and
analysed the period of Dasa first time in Vedic Time was King Mya. He was the father in
law of King Ravana, and they were amongs the most knowledge persons of their time. It
is the same Ravana's who got defeated by Lord Ram, in his golden City Gold and Golden
Coral.
In the Text Bahrat Jatakam written by Sage Varah Mihir, the sage has mentioned about
Mya it in his first sholoka of chapter related to longevity.
According to conception of Dasas in the Vedic Astrology the planets produce their
effects according to their nature as shown by them in individual's horoscope. The time of
the impact are major periods (Maha Dasas), sub?periods (Antar Dasas) or sub sub periods
(Pratyantar Dasas), sub-sub-sub period (shookshm Dasa) sub sub sub sub Period (Pran
Dasha) the last one is limited to Seconds where as first one i.e Maha Dasa is in years.
According to Vedic Astrology and other text related to Bhavisyha (subject related to
Future) in Kaliyuga the maximum natural life span of a human being is mentioned as 120
years hence Vimsottari Dasa, which is of 120 years in total, has mentioned as the most
appropriate among all the Dasa's.
The period of 120 year is divided into the periods of following planets.
1. Sun 6 years.
2. Moon 10 years
3. Mars 7 years
4. Rahu 18 years
5. Jupiter 16 years
6. Saturn 19 years
7. Mercury 17 years
8. Ketu 7 years
9. Venus are 20 years.
The Dasa starts from the nakshatra of Moon i.e. for a person which dasa will start use to
be calculated from the lord of Nakshatra in which Moon was placed when the person is
born.
Such as: If a person is born when the Moon was in Kritika nakshatra then its first period
will be of Sun, and how much period is left or balance of the period of Sun use to be
calculated by the ratio of balance remaining time, and already passed time of that
Nakshatra. Nakshatras are the Constellation, and the whole sky is devided in to 27
nakshatra.
Astottari Dasa:
According to Sage Parashar, the Astottri sada is suitable for analysis for a person when
Rahu not placed in Ascendant of 4th, 5th, 7th, 9th or 10th house of the horoscope. It is
having little different in calculation from Vimshottari Dasa, according to this system of
Dasa:
The Dasa of the Sun starts from the 4th nakshatras from Aridra Nakshatra.
The Dasa of the Moon starts from 3rd nakshatras after it.
The Dasa of the Mars starts from 4th nakshatras after it.
The Dasa of the Mercury starts from the 3rd nakshatras after that.
The Dasa of the Saturn will start from the 4th nakshatras after it.
The Dasa of the Jupiter will start from the 3rd nakshatra after it.
The Dasa of the Rahu will start from the 4th nakshatra after it.
The Dasa of the Venus will start from the 3rd Nakshatra after it.
In this system Ketu has been left away from being the lord of any dasa.
The duration of Astottari Dasa for the Sun, the Moon, Mars, Mercury, Saturn, Jupiter,
Rahu and Venus are 6,15,8,17,10,19,12 and 21 years respectively.
SHODSOTTARI DASA
Shodsottari Dasa is well recommended by Sage's for the person who is born, when the
following condition are getting fulfilled:
The degree of ascendant is greater then 15 degree for Odd Zodiacs and Less then 15
degree for Even ascendants, and the birth is in the Krishna Paksh (after ful moon and
prior to moon less night).
Or
The degree is greater then 15 degree for even Zodiac Ascendant and less then 15 Degree
for odd ascendant and birth is after moonless night and prior to full moon.
In this system the birth dasa use to be counted from the Pushya Nakshatra to the birth
Nakshatra of the person. Add the number in 7 as Pushya is 7th Nakshatra and devide it by
8 the remainder will indicate the Dasa at the birth. If the person is born in Pushya
Nakshatra then Count the number of nakshatra from Pushyami to the Janma Nakshatra.
After deviding 7+1 (the Pushya it self is Number one hence 7+1=8) by 8 reminder is 1
hence Sun's dasa will be there at the time of birth.
1. Sun 11 years
2. Mars 12 years
3. Jupiter 13 years
4. Satrun 14 years
5. Ketu 15 years
6. Moon 16 years
7. Mercury 17 years
8. Venus 18 years
DWADASHOTTARI DASA
The Dwadashottari Dasa system is much recommended by may Sage, where the ocean is
in the eastern side of the land or country or place and the persons Ascedant and
Navamsha use to be same. It is one of the very strong kind of dasa as it the only dasa
which deals on in those case where Ascendant is powerful and person is getting high will
backing from Ocean.
Little different from Shodsottari Dasa, the calculation of birth dasa of the person use to be
counted from the Revti Nakshatra and deviding it by 8. The remainder indicates the Dasa
at the time of birth. Revti is the 27th Nakshatra of the collection.
The Dasa under this system is as under
1. Sun 7 years
2. Jupiter 9 years
3. Ketu 11 years
4. Mercury 13 years
5. Rahu 15 years
6. Mars 17 years
7. Saturn 19 years
8. Moon 21 years
In this system Venus has been denied from becoming lord of any period.
PAHCHATTORI DASA
Sage has recommended this system of Dasa and its analysis for those who are having sun
in 2nd house and or in 10th house but must be the lord of 2nd house. Along with it the
Ascendant must be very strong and must be having at least 6 Varga's Ascendant. (same
navmansha, same sodansha, etc in 6 charts. For Kings of Kings and Kings of very
peaceful countries or very learned scholars and big businessmens. It very clearly
indicates the period of fall and the remedial measures of this dasa accordingly were much
famous for their impact on the kingdom or field of the natives. In present time it is highly
recommended for big businessmen.
Just like previous two dasa's it is counted form the Nakshatra Anuradha to the Janma
Nakshatra and dividing it by the number by 7. The remainder indicates the Dasa at the
time of birth of the person.
Rahu and Ketu are not been given place in this system as they give the impact of planet
with whom they get placed or the lord of that house.
SHATABDIKA DASA
This Dasa system is recommended by the sage for those person who are from common
public and having Vargottam Ascendant. Such person use to get sudden gain and shins in
the world to which no one can imagine in common public.
Just like previous Dasas, it is counted from Revti to the Janma Nakshatra and dividing it
by 7. The remainder indicates the Dasa at the time of birth.
1. Sun 5 years
2. Moon 5 years
3. Venus 10 years
4. Mercury 10 years
5. Jupiter 20 years
6. Mars 20 years
7. Saturn 30 years
In the system of Chaturashiti sama Dasa, it is considered suitable for those persons who
are having vargottam lord of the 10th house and is posited in the 10th house in Rashi
chart. In this system the number is counted from Swati Nakshatra up to the Janam
Nakshatra and deviding it by 7. The reminder gives the Dasa lord at the time of birth of
the person. Horoscope of Highly placed Govt official, chief executive of incorporation
use to be analysed through this system. For the person having Pisces and Seggiterious
Ascendant, it is very important to get analysed only through this planet as Mercury surely
dissolves to much poison suddenly in their life and person looses its all the respect and
gets break in work.
1. Sun 12 years
2. Moon 12 years
3. Mars 12 years
4. Mercury 12 years
5. Jupiter 12 years
6. Venus 12 years
7. Saturn 12 years
This Dasa system is recommanded for the person who are king of negative field, or
aggressive nature or who rules the dark field of earning (DON etc.) or Generals of Army
or head of some arms keeping area. As it is related to the lord of Ascendant and Moola
Nakshatra. Moola nakshatra is very famous for its negative nakshatra and if a child takes
birth in this nakshatra then a big Poojs (Worship and Yagan) becomes very necessary for
longer life and favor of luck, cool mind of the child. The counting of Janam nakshatra is
to be counted from Moola to the Janma Nakshatra and dividing it by by 8. The remainder
determines the Dasa lords at the time of birth.
1. Sun 9 years
2. Moon 9 years
3. Mars 9 years
4. Mercury 9 years
5. Jupiter 9 years
6. Venus 9 years
7. Satrun 9 years
8. Rahu 9 years
SASHTIHAYANI DASA
Very few person use to come under the spectrum for whom this dasa is recommended by
Sage. The great scholors but very poor, never getting exposers are covered under this
system and it indicates that which text or which creation of that scholor will life for ever
and coming several generation will just feel jealous by the fame of that person. Of course
such person use to get a lot of fame only after death, some time several years after death.
In one of the yoga of astrology, it is said that the name of person will vanish but his
creation will get recoginition till the life is existing in earth. In such cases the venus and
Saturn is seen in exalted state which pours a lot of talent in a person for making statues,
monuments, etc. such things remains forever and the creator's name use to get vanished.
If the sun is posted in ascendant in diblated state and in navamansha too it is having same
place and house and zodiac, then in those cases this dasa system is be adopted. To find
the lord of dasa at the time of birth is same as we take in Astottari Dasa system but dasa
period and its order is as follows:
