house which happens to be a quadrant/trine - Good luck, reputation, financial prosperity and
enjoyments of a high order.

with a benefic, the lord of Asdt should be posited in a sign owned by benefic, which happens
to be a quadrant/trine - Reputation; never hears anything adverse about his character.

If lord of Asdt is strong and/or Jupiter is in quadrants of Asdt, the native will have
enjoyments and happiness.

If lord of Asdt is conjunct/aspected by a benefic, the native will have wife, children, friends
and happiness.
 If lord of Asdt is very strong with aspect of a benefic and is posited in a quadrant, the native
will enjoy world-wide reputation, kingly paraphernalia, possesses many praiseworthy
qualities and full span of life. Malefic Yogas affecting longevity get nullified.

If malefics do not occupy quadrants/trines/2nd whilst lord of Asdt and Venus are standing in
4 and/or 8th, the native will be charitable and prosperous enjoying longevity upto 100 years
free from diseases. Further, during the sub-periods of lord of Asdt and Venus, he will enjoy

troubled by his enemies.

if such lord of Asdt (hemmed in between enemies) is conjunct/aspected by a benefic, the

native will be free from troubles from enemies.

Itches & Boils

Whilst the lord of Asdt is in 3/6/8/12, the Asdt is occupied by Rahu/Ketu, the native will

Bodily happiness

The native will have no bodily happiness if lord of Asdt is standing in 6/8/12 in company of a
malefic or lord of 6th/7th.

suffer occasional sickness.

posited in Asdt (other than the lord of Asdt) confer effects based on their lordship.

If benefics are standing in exaltation/moolatrikona/own/friendly house, the prosperity of the

native will be from birth place; malefics similarly placed in Asdt indicate prosperity away
from birth place.

If Asdt falls in a movable sign, lord of Asdt happens to be a movable planet, aspected by or
conjunct with a movable planet, indicates that the native will enjoy prosperity arising from a
foreign country. Fixed sign and fixed planets indicate much greater luck and prosperity
within the country.

Sun.Moon, Venus and Saturn are standing in friendly signs, there will be fame, luck and
growing prosperity.

Wealthy

If lords of 1, 2 and 11 stand in 1, 2 and 11 respectively, good wealth is indicated.

Wealth & Reputation

Exchange of signs between lords of 2 and 11 and the planets concerned stand in friendly
signs or the two lords stand in 2 & 11 respectively with exaltation/moolatrikona --- indicates
that the native will earn much and have reputation.

If lords of 2 and 11 conjoin in Ascendant whilst they both happen to be mutual friends, the
native will become very wealthy.

If lords of 11th and Ascendant together stand in Asdt, much wealth and reputation is
indicated. If they stand in 2nd or aspect the 2nd house, much wealth is indicated.

Financial Gains - When ?

The native will enjoy good income or earn well during the major period of planets aspecting
the 2nd and lord of 2nd, but particularly when the major period lord is connected with Jupiter
in transit. In other words, the periods when Jupiter is conjunct with or aspects the major
period lord (who is aspecting the 2nd or standing in the 2nd or happens to be lord of 2nd)
bring in greater income for the native.

Income referred to in the previous sloka will arise from outside the birth place, if lord of Asdt
is posited in a movable sign or a movable planet happens to be the lord of major period.

If the planets are fixed, income will arise from within the country

Even the major period of lord of 2nd placed in 6/8/12 with dispositor thereof in
exaltation/own/friendly house confer financial prosperity.

If the lord of 2nd, planets in the 2nd, planets aspecting the 2nd and the significator for 2nd,
Jupiter, - all the four planets, if strong, there will be great income.

Out of the 4 planets mentioned, assuming one of them is strong and the remaining 3 are
weak, and if the one planet that is strong happens to be malefic, there will be loss of wife.

From the nature and direction of the sign occupied by lords of 2 and 11, the source and type
of income could be deciphered. Delineation of the type and source of income could be
accurately done when the said 2 planets exchange signs or are posited in quadrants.

If lords of Asdt and 2nd are strong and occupy quadrants/trines whilst both the Asdt and 2nd
are aspected by benefics, the native will earn wealth from his community.
If lord of 2nd is strong and is in 2nd whilst a strong benefic iss posited in 11th, there will be
good gains.

If lords of Asdt and 2nd are in quadrants which happen to be exaltation/own/friendly houses
for them, good gains are indicated.

If lords of 2 and 12 exchange signs whilst lord of 11 is standing in 6/8/12, the native would
be called upon to make very heavy expenses.

If lord of 2nd is weak, Jupiter in 12th whilst there is a benefic aspect on Asdt, there will be
minor gains but heavy expenses.

If lord of 2 is in 6th or 12th, whilst lord of 12th is occupying a malefic sign with malefic
aspect, little income is indicated.

Lord of 2 in a sign owned by a benefic, which happens to be a quadrant/trine and at the

same time is conjunct with the lord of 2nd, the native will have higher education coupled
with good earnings. Similarly, if lord of 5 occupies a quadrant/trine in company of a
benefic, higher education would result.

The larger the number of strong planets in association with the lord of 2nd/9th, the
greater will be the gain of wealth.

In company of malefic(s), if Venus, lord of 2 and lord of 7 are posited in dusthana (6/8/12)
either all in one sign or one in each sign, there will be loss of as many wives as there are
malefics in conjunction with Venus or lord of 2/7.

If lord of 2nd is in company of Venus standing in 6/8/12 conjunct/aspected by lord of Asdt,

loss of eye is indicated.

Lord of 2 in 6/8/12 indicates that the native may have defective speech or become dumb,
depending upon the severity of affliction; if the sign occupied by lord of 2 , in spite of being a
dusthana (6/8/12), if it also happens to be exaltation/friendly house, there will pro-rata
reduced malefic effects.

Lords of 2 and 5 with Mercury, if standing in 6/8/12, speech will be affected; if they are
standing in quadrant/trine, the speech of the native will depend on the strength of the
planets involved.

Financial status of a native has to be decided first with reference to the planets posited in
the 2nd, next the aspects thereto, then the lord of 2nd and lastly, Jupiter, the significator for
the 2nd house.

If lord of 2nd in conjunction with a benefic is standing in quadrant/trine, which also happens
to be the exaltation/own/friendly house or aspected by benefic or masculine planet, the
native will become a great orator.

Astronomy

If Mercury is exalted in 2nd, whilst Jupiter is in Asdt, Saturn in 6th, the native will become a
mathematician/astronomer.

Powerful Jupiter, Venus, lord of 2nd - all standing in one sign in the 2nd house, indicates that
the native will become an eminent expert in Semantics.

The same Yoga arises when the 3 planets are posited in signs other than the 2nd house, but
with reduced effect.
Jupiter/Venus in exaltation/moolatrikona with aspect of Sun or Mars indicates that the native
will become an eminent logician.

Whilst Jupiter/Venus is in quadrants, if Mercury who is also in quadrant/trine, happens to be

either the lord of navamsa occupied by lord of 2nd or the dispositor of 2nd house lord, the
native will possess knowledge of all scriptures. Aspect of Full Moon or Mercury is also
required.

Jupiter, Venus, Moon, all of them or any two or any one, in quadrant/trine,
conjunct/aspected by Mercury confers knowledge of philosophy.

A native having Jupiter in 4th conjunct/aspected by Mercury will become a linguist.

The number of brothers a native will have is determined by the navamsas
attained by: -

the 3rd bhava madhya

the lord of 3rd house

navamsa attained by Mars

preferably the strongest amongst the three.

The following 5 Yogas indicate that the native will have siblings :-

Whilst a benefic is standing in 3rd, if lord of 3 is standing in quadrant/trine conjunct or

aspected by benefic

If lord of 3 has vargothamamsa and/or stay in quadrant/trine or the lord of 3 is conjunct with
a yoga karaka or has navamsas in a sign owned by a benefic or stay in a benefic sign.

Lord of 3 in exaltation whilst the significator for brother, Mars, is in quadrant/trine or

aspected by a benefic.

Moon with lordship over 3rd has the aspect of Sun, whilst significator for the 3rd is in a
quadrant.

Lord of 3 in 3rd or exaltation/moolatrikona and is strong.

Brothers Only

If significator for brothers, Mars, is standing in a masculine sign aspected by Jupiter/Sun or

whilst a masculine planet is standing the 3rd, the native will have brothers only.

Similarly feminine planets in and aspect of feminine planets to 3rd should be considered in
regard to sisters.

Saturn & Mercury or their classifications denote eunuchs.

If Moon sign happens to be stronger than Ascendant, consideration should be given to 3rd
from Moon instead of Asdt.

If lord of 3 and Mars are in 6/8/12, loss of brothers/sisters is certain. If they are posited in
signs other than 6/8/12 aspected by a malefic, the first born will thrive whilst the rest may
perish depending upon the severity of the Yoga.

If lord of 3 is in 6th or debilitation whilst a malefic occupies the 3rd without benefic aspect,
loss of brothers will occur.

Lord of 3 with malefic posited in a house owned by a feminine planet or aspected by a

feminine planet indicates birth of a few brothers and more of sisters.

Lord of 3 standing in a masculine sign denotes brothers.

Lord of 3 standing in a feminine sign denotes sisters.

A malefic in 3rd, even if aspected by Jupiter or benefic, will still cause loss of some
brothers/sisters.

In the major period of lord of 3 or the significator for 3 who is in debilitation/combustion/6th,

the native will face adversities like bitterness with brothers, folly, loss of wealth and the like.
If both lords of Asdt and the 3rd are posited in enemy signs but in the 3rd of lord of
8/12/debilitated planet or a planet in inimical sign, the native's relations with his brothers
will be bitter.

If lord of 3 is conjunct with lord of Asdt and the two planets are friendly between themselves,
cordial relations with brothers is indicated.

Lord of 3 in Asdt. which is owned by a benefic and which happens to be friendly to lord of 3
or lord of Asdt being placed similarly in 3rd house denotes good relations amongst brothers.
if the above planets are standing in enemy signs, bitterness would result.

If both the lord of 3 and the significator for 3 are in 12th or debilitation, destruction of
brothers will occur.

Wealth

If lord of 3 is in own house or in benefic house, which happens to be the 10th in company fo
a benefic, the native will possess wealth consisting of jewels.

If Venus and lord of 3 occupy signs owned by benefics and have benefic aspect, gain of a
good quantity of jewels is indicated.

Courage

If lord of 3 is strong, commensurate with his strength, the native will be courageous.

Sweet/soft voice

If a benefic stays in 3 or there is benefic aspect to 3rd, native's voice will be sweet/soft.

General

If lord of 3 is conjunct with Mars, the native will be speaking truth. If lord of 3 is conjunct
with Venus, happiness generally, and particularly with women, is indicated.

Depending on the strength of the planet who happens to be lord of 3, or posited in 3 and
planet aspecting 3, the native will be valorous.

During the major period of lord of 3, significator for 3, planet posited in 3 and planet
aspecting 3, father, mother & brothers enjoy happiness.

3rd house, planet in 3rd, lord thereof and Mars, particularly the quantum of strength enjoyed

the native will be enjoying happiness in all directions.

Asdt, 4th and 9th are the 3 houses involved in this Yoga. If only two of these are strong,
there will be 75% benefic effects; if only one of them is strong, only 25% benefic effects
effects are likely.

inimical house or weak otherwise) is standing with debilitated or weak lord Asdt, there will
be a mixture of good and bad effects in their respective major periods.

Note : The author seems to imply that the connection between lords of 1 & 9 will always
produce good results, depending
 upon the strength of the planets involved. Since the lord of 4th is very weak in
this Yoga, bodily comforts & happiness

will be almost NIL.

If a benefic is in 4th with Moon, the happiness derived by the native will depend upon the
significations of the former.

and without any malefic aspect, many sons will be born.

Even when the lord of 5 is occupying a sign other than 6/8/12, with benefic aspect, and the
lord of 5 is strong, birth of children is certain.

No children

Unaspected by benefic, a malefic in 5th of Jupiter/Moon/Asdt, indicates that no children will

be born.

Malefic in 5th, un aspected by benefic, whilst lord of 5th is hemmed in between malefics,
indicates no children.

Adopted Son

If the 5th happens to be a Mercurian/Saturnian sign, conjunct/aspected by Mercury/Saturn

respectively, the native will adopt a son.

Loss of children
if lord of 5 is in 8 or lord of 8 in 5, and if there is no benefic aspect on lord of 8th, loss of
children will occur.

If lord of 5 is weak whilst Jupiter is hemmed in between malefics and not conjunct/aspected
by benefic, loss of children would occur.

Lord of 5 with a malefic whilst lord of 5th is hemmed in between malefics and not aspected
by benefic, loss of children would occur.

Intelligence

If lord of 5 is posited in 8th, the native will become very intelligent. Mercury/Jupiter in trine
also denotes same result.

General

Children and prosperity can be determined from lord of 9th or 5th.

Feminine planet in feminine sign, conjunct/aspected by a feminine planet indicates birth of a

daughter without fail.

Son

If lord of 5 is conjunct/aspected by a masculine planet or Jupiter, son will be born.

If Jupiter is posited in a friendly house, own house/exaltation, or conjunct with a masculine

planet or Jupiter aspects the 5th, son will be born.

Time of birth

If there is exchange of signs between lord of 5 and Jupiter, in major period of lord of 5 but in
the sub-period of Jupiter, a son will be born.

General

If the significator for children and lord of 5 are both standing in feminine signs, birth of
daughter is indicated; if both in masculine signs, sons are indicated.

Either lord of 5 and/or Jupiter in 5th in conjunction of a feminine planet indicates birth of
twins --- a boy and a girl.

In the matter of delineations to be made concerning children, the significator for children,
viz. Jupiter, is to be given importance; and if Jupiter is in 6/8/12, the effects flowing from the
5th house will be moderate.

Lord of 5, significator for 5, planets posited in 5 and planets aspecting 5th, in the order of
priority given --- if these 4 planets are benefics, the native will be highly educated, birth of
son is certain, increase of children, luck from children etc. depending on the strength of the
4 planets. Even death of children will occur in their major period, if malefic.

The intelligence of the child to be born has to be determined from the navamsa occupied by
the 5th bhava madhya. The languages mastered by the native, prayer, worship, inclination
towards philosophy and scriptures are all to be decided with reference to the 5th house.

The planets in conjunction with Jupiter and lord of 5th indicates the habits, temperaments
and inclinations of the children to be born.

If lord of 3 and Moon are standing in 5th, aspected by lord of 5th, there will be birth in
mother's house.
If the 4th from the sign occupied by lord of 5, or the 5th is occupied by Jupiter, a number of
sons are indicated. Mars in 5th from Jupiter indicates loss of children. Saturn's aspect on
such Jupiter indicates a few children. Venus

in 5th indicates happiness on account of children. Sun in 6/8/12 conjunct an inimical planet,
whilst Saturn is aspecting Jupiter, indicates the native will adopt a child.

Chapter VI
6th House

The following are the effects produced by the planets posited in the sixth house :-

Sun - Intelligent; helpful to relatives and family; head of the household; handsome and
sensual; conquers enemies; versed in methodology.

Moon

Weak or debilitated - Bereft of happiness; sickly; suffers sorrow.

Full Moon - Good stature; happiness of a high order; respect.

Mars - Defeats enemies; sons; finance.

Weak Mars - Unpleasant to look at; engaged in sinful and harsh actions.

Mercury

debilitated - Depends on those whom he dislikes.

in benefic sign or aspected by benefic - Success over enemies.

Jupiter - Suffers defeat at the hands of his enemy initially but ultimately, gains the upper
hand.

Venus - Wastes away his own wealth; success over enemies.

Saturn

in enemy house/debilitation - Fear from low class people

in other houses - Clears debts; success over enemy; children and finance.

Rahu - Defeats enemies; enjoyments from children; finance; his wife will have a peaceful
mind; educated; prosperous; happy.

Ketu - Inclined to be associated with rogues and cheats; almost always sickly; ill-dressed.

Longevity

In some cases, Saturn in the 6th which happens to be an inimical sign, causes death. The
reasoning for such an effect is that the 6th which is an Upachaya House, denoting increase.
6th House governs diseases and Saturn in there aggravates the trouble and causes death,
being in an inimical sign.

General

Benefics cause increase, abundance etc. depending on their strength and goodness.
Malefics cause destruction. By nature, malefics and benefics do so. There is a school of
thought which believes that benefics in the 6th cause increased sickness and malefics in the
6th cause destruction of sickness, enemies etc. Yavanas, another school of thought, do not
agree with them, but hold that benefics in 6/8/12 destroy the effects flowing from that
house, thereby indirectly causing good to the native. In view of the opposing views held by
many, these houses and the effects flowing therefrom, should be intelligently considered.

Malefics are destroyed by benefics; the aspect from a benefic to malefic has the effect of
softening/reducing the malefic effects conferred by a malefic. So also, benefics in 6/8/12 go
to destroy the bhava, thus causing indirectly, good to the native. Malefics in dusthana cause
more troubles to the native, than otherwise.

Chapter VII
7th House

The following are the effects produced by planets posited in the seventh house :-

Sun - in exaltation - Frequently moves about; suffers deafness; dark red complexion; light

Mercury - Handsome looking; lucky; slightly oversexed wife; the native will be sexually weak
or undersexed; defeated by women; loves wife.

Jupiter - Wife, wealth and respect; religious minded; enjoyments; full happiness as a
householder.

Venus - Son; very wealthy; large family; his wife will be a bit oversexed; good looking face;
his company is desired by beautiful women.

Saturn - He will lose his wife due to sickness; he will marry again and lose his wife again;
Once more he will marry, even she will die. Literally there will be death of as many wives as

of questionable character, adulterous girls, dirty women, barren women and widows.

Ketu - Engaged in professions considered low class or below dignity by many; looks
charming; desired by young women; causes sorrow to himself and his wife.

will have a number of girl friends.

Loss of wife

If 7th house is hemmed in between malefics whilst lord of 8th is posited in the 8th or Venus
is conjunct malefic, loss of wife will occur for sure.

General

spend his life joyfully with his wife. If Venus is this Yoga is elsewhere and aspected by a
malefic, more than one wife is indicated.

Good Wife

Lord of 7th in quadrant/trine aspected by benefic, indicates a good wife.

Passionate

If lord of 7th is conjunct/aspected by Venus, the native will passionately love his wife.

Same results as above if lord of 7th is in Taurus/Libra whilst Venus is in 2nd.

Girl-friends

If Venus and lord of 7th are conjunct in one sign along with other planets, the native will
have as many girl-friends as there are planets with Venus.

The number of planets conjunct with lord of 7th indicates the number of girl-friends of the
native. Under this Yoga, the native will have a married wife plus a certain number of girl
friends.

If lord of 7 and 4 are conjunct with malefics, number of girl-friends will equal the number of
strong planets associated with lords of 7 and 4, in addition to having a wife.

If Venus is posited in 2/6/7 or conjunct with malefics, the native will have girl-friends besides
wife.

Father's Character

If lords of 4 & 6 are united in 10th house, the native's father should be presumed to have
had contacts with women other than his wife.

Contacts with other women

Lord of Asdt, 7th and a malefic posited in the 2nd.

One Wife

Lord of 2nd in 2nd along with lord of 7th indicates that the native will enjoy with his wife
throughout life. If there are other strong planets in their company, additional number of girl-
friends or wives have to be determined from their number.
Two wives

If lords of 2 and 7 are together in signs other than the 2nd, or there is a malefic in the 7th
and the lord of 7th is conjunct malefic(s), the native will have 2 wives.

Two marriages

be 2 marriages.

Loss of wife

If Venus and 2nd house are simultaneously conjunct/aspected by a malefic whilst lord of
2nd is weak, there will be death of wife.

Lord of 7th in enemy sign, debilitation or combustion or aspected by malefic whilst the 7th
house is also aspected by a malefic, loss of wife is certain.

Lord of 7 is 6/8/12 or without strength, whilst Venus is conjunct with a malefic, loss of wife
will occur.

Lord of 7 in 2 or 4 whilst Mars is strong in the horoscope and lord of Asdt is in 12/8, loss of
wife will occur.

If the from Asdt/Moon is aspected by both Mercury & Saturn, death/separation from wife will
occur.

Married Life

Where the 7th house is aspected by a retrograde or malefic planet, the house will come to
grief and the married life of the native will be unsatisfactory.

Effects of Mars in 7/8

It is harmful to have Mars in 7th/8th from Asdt/Moon/Venus at the time of birth, marriage or
puberty. Marital Happiness is assured with a strong lord of Asdt, 7th lord and dispositor of

or standing in a benefic sign, the native will enjoy long life.

Even if lord of 8th is is in dusthana 6/8/12, with a malefic, if Saturn is powerful enough, the
native will enjoy long life.

If lord of 8th and Saturn are both strong in the horoscope, and if both are conjunct with a
malefic, whilst long life is assured for the native, he will be undergoing various adversities.

If lord of 8th is exalted whilst Saturn is conjunct with a benefic and is fairly strong, long life is
assured.

If lords of Asdt & 8th conjointly stand in 6 or 12 OR lords of 6 and 12 conjointly stand in Asdt
or 8th, long life is indicated.

Lords of 10, Asdt and 8th (individually or severally) standing in 11 or quadrant/trine

Poor Longevity

If lord of 8th is conjunct with a malefic or standing in a sign owned by a malefic which
happens to be 6th, 8th or 12th, poor longevity is indicated.

Death when ?

In the major period of lord of 8th in 6/8/12, but in the sub-period of the dispositor thereof,
there is possibility of death of the native.

In the major period of the dispositor of Saturn posited in 8th, in own sub-period or the sub-
period of malefic, death will occur.

Short Life

If lord of 8th in company of lord of Asdt and a malefic, stands in 6/8/12, short life is
indicated.

Lord of Asdt in company of Rahu/Ketu if standing in 6/8/12 indicates short life.

if there is another malefic in company of lord of Asdt and Rahu/Ketu, death will occur in the
major period of the dispositor or the malefic standing in 8th or one of the planets in
conjunction with the lord of 8th.

Atma Pinda

Lord of 10 in 8th or vice-versa whilst lord of Asdt is with a benefic, the native will be
performing the ceremony whereby he will offer Atma Pinda in Gaya.

Long Life

If lord of 8th, Asdt and Saturn are involved or connected with a benefic Yoga, operating on
the horoscope, long life is indicated provided Rahu is not involved.

Death when ?

If lord of 10th is with Rahu and any other planet(s) and they are all standing in 6/8/12, death
will occur in the sub-period of Rahu in the major period of the planet in association with the

Death by sunstroke

If lord of Asdt is debilitated or in enemy house or in 8th in conjunction of a benefic, the

native will die of sunstroke in early age.

Death when ?

If lord of Asdt is in Asdt and lord of 8 in 8th, then death will occur in the major period of one
of these and in sub-period of the other; death is also likely in the major periods of benefics
but in the sub-periods of lord of Asdt or 8th.

Should the major period of lord of 8th be running at birth, death is likely in the sub-period of
lord of Asdt.

If either lord of Asdt or 8th is standing in company of Saturn in 5th/9th or quadrant, death
will occur in the major period of the weakest planet involved in the Yoga.

If weak lord of 8th is conjunct another planet and is standing in quadrant/trine, death will
occur in the major period of lord of 8th.

Adversities

In the major period of Saturn standing in Asdt or 8th, the native will suffer various
adversities.

Death when ?

If the lord of Asdt and 8th are standing in company of another planet in quadrant/trine,
death is likely in the major period of the planet posited in 8th, if any.

If the lord of Asdt along with a malefic planet is standing in the 8th, death will occur in the
major period of the weaker of the two in 8th.

Death of Father - when ?

Find out the planet or planets standing in conjunction with the lord of 5th and add up their
major period years Vimshottari Maha Dasa Years. If there is only one planet in conjunction
with lord of 5, his major period years only should be considered. Divide the above major
period years by 12; the balance counted from Aries indicates the sign through which ---
when Sun passes --- death of father will occur.

If lord of 5 is standing alone, then his major period years only are considered i.e. the major
period years of lord of 5 will be divided by 12; the balance left over indicates the month of
death.

Now we proceed to determine the date on which death will occur in the month already
indicated, as follow :-

Find out the planet(s) standing in conjunction with the lord of Asdt and add up their major
period years and divide by 30; the balance counted from the date on which Sun entered the
sign indicated above will give the date of death. Where the lord of Asdt is standing alone the
major period years of the lord of 5th is again taken into consideration and divided by 30; the
balance counted from the date of entry of Sun into the sign first indicated, gives the date of
death. In other words,where both the lord of 5th and lord of Asdt are standing alone in a
horoscope, the major period years of lord of 5 is divided by 12, to find out the month and
then, divided by 30 to find out the date.

In the horoscope given below, the lord of Asdt is standing alone whilst the lord of 5th is in
company of Jupiter. Therefore, major period years of planet in conjunction with lord of 5 i.e.
Venus (lord of 5) in conjunction with Jupiter - 16 years divided by 12, gives a balance
(remainder) of 4 pointing to Cancer Karkata.

Since lord of Asdt is standing alone, the major period years of lord of 5 Venus i.e. 20 years is
divided by 30; balance 20 or the death of father is to be expected on the 20th day counted
from the date of entry of Sun into Cancer.

Cause of Death

The 22nd decanate drekkana is highly inauspicious and denotes all about the death of a
native. From it, from its lord, planet in conjunction with or aspecting such lord, the dispositor
(by sign) of the lord of the 22nd decanate, cause of death of native can be determined. The
strongest of the above or Saturn will be the one causing death. Sloka # 39

General

Benefics in 8th cause death, whilst malefics in 8th with or without malefic aspect indicate
that the native's means of livelihood is through evil ways.

Accidental Death

A malefic in 6th Kalaha sthana - house of enemies, indicates that the native will be highly
quarrelsome; if dispositor thereof is in Varga Sandhi, in between signs or other
classifications, accidental death is indicated.

Death - How ?

The type of death or diseases which cause death are to be determined from the lord of
22nd decanate, the sign in which posited and the planets in association with the lord of the
sign.

Death of relatives

Whilst the death and manner of death are determined with reference to the 8th from Asdt in
regard to the native, likewise, the death of father, mother, brother, wife are indicated by :-

8th house counted from the house of father 9th

........................................................ mother 4th

........................................................ brother 3rd

........................................................ wife 7th

In the same way as the 22nd decanate has been determined for the native, the 22nd
decanate should be determined for the concerned relatives from the decanate in which the
centre of the house falls. In determining the cause of death of relatives, follow the
instructions given sloka #39 above.

Long Life for Father

If benefics stand in both 4th and 9th, father of the native will be long lived.

Death of Mother - When ?

Death of mother will occur in the sub-period of lord of 6th occurring in the major period of
lord of 4th, if lord of 8th is posited in 6/12.

Death of Parents

Death of father is likely in the major period of lord of 4th conjunct with lord of 12 or in the
major period of Saturn. Death of mother is likely in the major period of planet in conjunction
with the above planets.

Death of mother will occur in the sub-period of Rahu which occurs prior to major period of
Moon, if lord of 4th is in 3rd in the company of eclipsed Moon.

Death of mother will occur in the sub-period of the dispositor of Moon who is standing in 4th
if it happens to be a friendly sign or exaltation for Moon.

Death of mother is possible in the sub-period of Moon in the major period of dispositor of
lord of 4th, if dispositor of lord of 4th & Moon are standing together.

If Moon and lord of 4th are standing together in 4th; death of mother is likely in the major
period/sub-period of lord of 12th, occurring prior to Moon's major period.

Death of mother is likely in the sub-period of Rahu in the major period of Moon or lord of 6th,
if Moon or lord of 6th has the aspect of lord of 4th.

Lord of 9th in conjunction with Rahu will cause early death of father. Death likely in the
major period of the former.

Lord of 9th standing even otherwise can cause death of father. Planet in 9th, lord of 9th,
planet in conjunction with Sun also cause death of father in their major periods.

Death due to sins

Rahu/Ketu standing alone in the 9th, denotes that the native will die due to sins committed
in his previous birth.

If the dispositor of lord of 9th or the dispositor of Sun is conjunct Rahu, death should be
presumed to be due to sins of previous birth.

Death of Father

Death of father will occur in the major period of lord of 9th, if lord of 9th is in 9th with Rahu.
If Sun or lord of 9th is conjunct with Rahu or lord of 9th is with Saturn, death of father is
indicated in the major period of one of the planets involved.

Even if a planet(s0 enjoying exaltation/moolatrikona/own house is conjunct with Rahu, death

of father is likely in the major period of the former.

If Sun at birth is in 5 or 9, loss of father is likely in the major period of Saturn.

Death of father is likely in the major period of a malefic,connected with Sun and Rahu,
standing in the 8th from lord of 5th/9th/Asdt; if not, in the major period of the worst malefic
in this lot.

Any planet along with Rahu/Ketu in Leo; in the major period of the weaker planet in this
group, death of father will occur.

Death of father will occur in the major period of a planet associated with Sun.

General

Destruction will occur to a particular house or its significations from the 8th house thereof.
Predictions concerning a bhava should be based on the bhava concerned, planets in there,
lord of the house, the aspects on that house; malefic/benefic nature and the
intensity of the results will depend on their strength.

Prediction should take into account the times (age) and the country in which the native is
lives; highly malefic yogas operating on a horoscope with connections to 8th house may
cause premature death or death in childhood.

Longevity of a native should be thought of ONLY after the native has completed
16 years.

Exchange of signs between lords of 6 and 9 indicates luck through enemies.

No wealth

If lord of 9 is in 9th with a number of malefics, whilst the lord of Asdt is weak, the native

will have no wealth.

Wealth

Whilst the lord of Asdt is powerful, if Venus or Jupiter or lord of 9th stand in 9th or any one

of them aspect the 9th, there will be growth of prosperity, slowly but surely.

Prosperity

If the 9th and Asdt or their lords are occupying malefic vargas (classifications) or are being

aspected by Saturn, luck and prosperity will be destroyed.

Lord of 11 in 9, lord of 9 in 1 whilst lord of Asdt is in 11th, the native's prosperity will be

more due to his good deeds in previous birth.

General

Lord of 3 in 9th in company of Sun indicates that the native will have connections with

other women.

Death of father

If Sun and Moon are standing in 9th whilst the Asdt is strong, death of father in early ages

of a native is indicated.

General

In a horoscope where lords of 1, 2, 4 and 9 are standing in quadrants/trines, death of father,

mother and self should be expected in major period/sub-period of the said lords.

Death of native

If both the lords of Asdt and 7th are standing together in a quadrant/trine, native's death is

likely in the major period of the dispositor thereof.

Many wives

If lords of 9, 5 and 7 are weak and are posited in 6, 8 or 12 (individually or severally) and
if no benefic is posited in 5th, the native will have many wives/girl friends.

Son out of wedlock

If a native has no children at all but has a powerful lord of 5, he will beget a son out of

wedlock when the lord of 5 (during transits) is being aspected by a powerful malefic

in transit through an enemy sign.

Bondage

Bondage of the native will occur during the major/sub-period of strong Saturn, lord of 6th

and lord of Asdt, provided they are standing together in quadrant/trine.

Professional Success

Mercury in own house or exaltation ensures success professionally, irrespective of whether

lord of 10th

is exalted or not.

An exalted lord of 10th even if standing in 6/8/12; or Mercury and Rahu in 10th indicates
professional success in

general for the native.

If Mercury happens to be the lord of 10th and is exalted, the native will be engaged in
undertakings

for the benefit of the public.

Rahu alone in 10th will cause some impediments and failures in profession.

A benefic with lordship over 10th in conjunction with another benefic, especially Jupiter,
indicates that

the native will be performing religious sacrifices.

Both the benefic and malefic aspects on the lord of 10th will have to be taken into
account

in deciding the type and nature of profession for a native.

Jupiter in 10th indicates a native with knowledge and devotion.

Jupiter & Venus in 10th indicate a native who will be engaged in public undertakings,
charities and the like. If lord of 10th also joins the said planets in 10th, such a native would
give away a large part of his wealth in charities.

Full Moon and/or Jupiter in 10th (if it happens to be a watery sign), indicates especially pious

and charitable deeds on the part of native.

Self earned wealth

Lord of Asdt and 10th conjointly stand in Asdt or 10th indicates that the native will have a
single-pointed mind and

will possess self earned wealth.

Wealth

Whilst Sun Moon Mercury are standing in 10th or 2nd, if there is union of lord of 10th and
Jupiter,

the native will have wealth comparable to that of a King.

Source of wealth

If Venus and lord of 7th together stand in 10th, wealth will accrue through women.

Saturn in 10th indicates wealth through lower castes.

Rahu in 10th indicates wealth through low class/people following mean professions.
Pilgrimages

Rahu and/or Moon in 10th indicate, depending upon their strength and benefic vargas on
which

they stand, that the native would be frequently enjoying bath in Ganges or holy rivers. If lord
of

10th is weak and/or associated with malefic, the benefic effects will stand reduced pro-rata.

If lords of 10th, 2nd and Mercury are powerful, the native will be performing highly

charitable deeds for the benefic of public or do religious sacrifices.

Moon in Pisces/Cancer indicates incentive for pilgrimages. If such Moon were in 3rd, the
native

will definitely go on a pilgrimage.

Strong benefics in 10th incline a native to perform religious sacrifices.

Charities

Mercury in 12th or dispositor of lord of 12th in exaltation indicates that the native will be
doing

charities.

Impediments in Profession

If the 3 benefics Mercury, Jupiter and Venus are in 6/8/12 (individually or severally), conjunct

or aspected by malefic, impediments in profession and failures are likely.

Respect

In conjunction with Venus, if lord of 10th is in quadrants or exaltation, the native will be

respected by all.

Salvation

If lord of 4th is in quadrants in a watery sign with Mars and lord of 10th or Mercury, the
native

will attain powers of discrimination/thinking of unity of Jeevatma and Paramatma.

Authority

If Mercury and lord of 10th are conjunct/aspected by benefic, the native will be exercising

authority.

Sun in 10th in conjunction with Mars, whilst their dispositor is posited in quadrants, indicates

that the native will be harsh in exercising his authority (comparable to magisterial powers
&c).

Proficiency in evil lines

Whilst the lord of 10th is debilitated, if a native has Saturn and Rahu in 10th or Rahu/Ketu in
12th, he will be an adept in evil lines (counterfeiting etc.)

Fame

A native having Moon in 10th in Parvatamsa, aspected by Jupiter/Venus will enjoy fame.

Fame for a native is assured if one or more benefics are posited in 10th or the lord of 10th

is conjunct with a benefic or the lord of 10th is hemmed in between benefics.

Bad Name

If lord of 10th is conjunct malefics or the lord of 10th is standing in malefic shashtiamsa,

bad name will result.

Honour

The native will enjoy honour if a benefic is posited in 10th or the 10th house falls in a sign

owned by benefic or 10th lord is conjunct benefic. Malefic being associated with 10th or

its lord indicates opposite results, including loss of reputation.

Expenses

A powerful benefic in 12th indicates expenses in the right directions; malefics indicate

expenses in wrong directions, losses and wasteful expenses.

If lord of 12 is stronger than lord of 11th, the native's expenses will be more than his

earnings. If lord of 11th is stronger than lord of 12th, income will be more than expenses.

If both are of equal strength (For instance, in the case of Pisces Asdt), income and expenses
will be equal.

If there are no planets in 12th, determine effects of this house from the lord of 12.

The effects or predictions concerning Yogas etc. not covered above, will have to be

intelligently delineated by the wise astrologers.
