1. RAHU and KETU as Ruler:
Whenever Rahu/Ketu are coming as the ruler, special attention has to be given. Because, it would represent its Signlord also. Hence it would signify both the grades (itself and its sign lord’s). We should consider either of the Grade shown by itself and its Signlord so that it does not fall down in its Grade.
Whenever it is coming, out of two grades it poses, one grade at OCCL has to be fixed for Rahu is fixed for C grade, the OCCL at JUP will take upper trend. So Rahu has to be considered as C grade at OCCL
Rahu has to be fixed with A grade so that its OCCL grade does not fall down.
But at the 3rd level SAT has B grade. Once Rahu/Ketu’s Grade is fixed, the comparison has to be done only with that (A) and not with the other one (C).
Because, if Rahu is fixed at C grade, the 3rd OCCL will not fall. But Rahu itself will fall down. This is not allowed. First of all, Rah or Ketu would tend to save guard its level. So, A grade is fixed but the 3rd level Grade will fall down.
If both the Grades of Rahu/Ketu are in upper trend to the previous level’s Grade, then fixation of the Grade out of these two is to be done considering the next level’s OCCL’s grade so that that level does not fall down.
42 grade, then it would fall down in 3rd level. If it is fixed at B grade, the grade will be maintained at the 3rd Grade and not fall down. So B grade is to be considered. Hence Jup will have CBBAn upward trend.
Please note, though the required grades are taken for the benefit of the planet, the other Grade which has not been fixed will have to be taken for analysis during the comparative study.
If they have 3 grades, then the strength will be weak.
If Rahu or Ketu has appeared as the Starlord or Sublord of the Primary cusp of the required event, as they also represent their Signlord, wherever their Sign lord’s are coming as rulers or in Conjunction or Asp, the respective PILT shade of that Rahu or Ketu will be given for their Sign lord’s also.
Rahu is posited in the sign of MOON and KETU is posited in the sign of SATURN.
For the event of marriage, in the ESI table of JUPITER, Rahu and KETU are not present.
But MOON who represents RAHU is present at 2nd level. At STSB it is not having any A grade. But it is given Blue PILT shade as it is represented by RAHU (7STL)
Similarly at the 4th level SATURN has got Green PILT shade at STSB as it is represented by KETU the 7th Sublord. significators, we have to give importance to Rahu and Ketu if they play a role as a significator in the master period. If so, Rahu and Ketu could mostly play their role directly or indirectly in the sub period.
43 5. Whenever same planet is coming more than once as ruler, care to be taken in analysis. If that planet is not strong in OCCL or supports, the same significations will be repeated two times in the ESI table which could be unfavorable. Similarly if the planet is good in OCCL or Supports, it would support twice. Hence importance has to be given for such planet with repeated ruler. In PILT 2 connection, care to be taken as this could either increase or reduce the level of support
6. A planet can be traveling in its own star. So a planet will have same planet in the 1 and 2nd level or 3rd and 4th level (if it appears as Sublord). Normally it is considered strong. But it is not so all the time. This is because, it will have the same Grade and supports at its both the levels.
For example one planet (X) is showing B grade by itself and is in its own star. So it will have B grade at 1st and 2nd level Suppose another planet(Y) who is in star of another planet also has the same B grade at 1 and 2nd level.
So both the planets have same B grade at two consequent levels. But the planet (Y) showing B grade through two different planets could be stronger than the other one (X) who is in its own star. Because, the planet (X) that is in its own star will have the similar supports at 2 levels.
Whereas, the other planet(Y) will have different supports as the planets vary.
The impact is based on the strength of the Supports. So, if the planet is not strong in OCCL and Supports, the planet will become weaker when compared to the other planet that is in the star of another planet. Further the PILT 2 connection would not also be strong as same planet is repeated.
7. When a same planet is in its own star consideration on the Subsublord of the planet would also be useful.
When a planet is in its own sub, study on Subsub lord and Starlord of the Starlord could also further help.
(Such study would be useful to find the indirect PILT 1 and 2 connections also)
8. When the 1st and 2nd ruler are the same with “A “grade, if the 3rd and 4th levels are in downward trend but has some good supports to elevate the fallen grades, that planet could become stronger if other planets are comparatively weaker. Because this planet will get revised “A” grades at all OCCL.
9. When the same planet is coming at 1st and 4th level, importance has to be given if that planet has “A” grade either at OCCL/STSB. Because as a planet starts with A grade and ends with A grade by the same planet, it would try to maintain its strength as if it has constructed its own boundary. In case the 2nd 3rd levels are having fallen grades but with supports at STSB/CONJN, even if these supports to elevate the grades are little lesser than required level, they could help to elevate the grades if they have good PILT connections. And this planet will become stronger as it could attain A grades with support at all 4 levels along with the 1st and 4th level are ruled by the same planet.
10. When the same planet is coming at 1st and 3rd level (as Sublord), its 2nd and 4th level will be the same.
44 Here if the planet is having unfavorable significations in its OCCL/STSB and Supports, it will be unfavorable
Suppose a planet with “B” grade is in the star of a planet having “A” grade. If that planet is in its own sub, then the planets at 1st and 3rd level will have B Grade and at the 2nd and 4th level, they will have A Grade. So it will be B-A-B-A. Mixed trend signified by the same planet. Here only one level at 3rd level is falling.
If that planet is having a good supports to elevate the Grade B to A at the 3rd level, it will become stronger as it would attain B-A-A-A. Here the role of PILT 2 connections are to be checked as the connection may be weak as same planet is repeated.
Suppose a planet with “A” grade and its Starlord is “B” grade. That planet is in its own sub.
Then the planets at 1st and 3rd level will have A grade and at the 2nd and 4th level will have B grade. So it will be A-B-A-B. This is also mixed trend. But here two levels (2nd and 4th levels) are falling. Now strong supports are required to lift the fallen grades to A. If the supports are not stronger enough, it could not conduct an event and also would become weak as at two levels the grades are falling down.
But in general for conducting an event like marriage and child birth the planet with its own sub with mixed OCCL trend is mostly weak. Because only two planets will play the role and the supports also will be limited. This also would limit the strength and support and also the PILT 2 connection to its master period. If that planet is strong enough with good supports, then the impact would be better. Meanwhile if that planet has “3” grades at OCCL or STSB, it will repeat its negative significations in its sublevel also which is not favorable.
11. FREE PLANET: Free planet is a planet that has no other planet traveling in any of its star.
Suppose the Free planet is having “A” grade and if its Star lord’s grade is falling down, the free planet will try to retain its grade from falling down. So it will extend its support to its Starlord.
We are aware that the Starlord has to get sufficient supports to elevate the Grade equal to the Free planet. Here the Free planet status also will act as one of the indirect support to help the Starlord along with the other supports
12. If the FREE PLANET is having “D3”grade at OCCL or STSB, that planet becomes weaker. If it has
“D2” or other“3” grades, it is weak depending on the Support at STSB SPECIAL POINTS:
1. Always check the Starlord of the Starlord:
If the Starlord of the Starlord (2nd level) is ruling the 3rd level with “A”, then it further adds strength. This is like indirect RL support
If the Starlord of the Starlord (4th level) is ruling the 1st level, then it further adds strength depending upon the significations. This is like Indirect RL support.
2. If a planet and its Starlord have good “A” grades and PILT shade, when it comes at 2nd or 4th level to a planet, then that planet will get more strength indirectly
3. A planet with more indirect supports as discussed under Indirect PILT 1 connections along with the Main Supports, this will add more strength.
45 4. Sometime a planet may have the PILT 1 connection comparatively weaker than other planet(s).
But that Planet may be having Strong PILT 2 connections to its Master period, it will become stronger. This depends on the Strength and weakness of OCCL and supports.
A planet and its rulers may have good connection to Dasa lord itself (1st level) by CONJ or ASP, this forms strong connection.

TYPE OF SUPPORTS THAT COULD SUPPORT OCCL
On the Basis that the supports from the STSB,CONJ and ASP could help the fallen grade at OCCL, the following are derived:
We have studied about the different type of Supports above. Now lets study the different kind of supports that could support OCCL
Primary supports:
1. A grade at STSB – as Primary CSL (Green shade) /CST(Blue shade).
2. A grade at CONJN – through CSL(Green)/CST(Blue)/CL(yellow).
3. A grade at ASP – in case of JUPITER as Ruler or at ASP
4. RL Support (Star exchange)-Redline with A grade. This is supportive if the star level planet is not completely weak
Additional supports (they will act only as additional supports along with other supports).
5. RL support (CONJN)-Green line- from the 1st level or from the previous level preferably with A grade
6. RL support (ASP)- Brown line- from the 1st level or from the previous level preferably with A grade
7. RL support (Signlord)-Blue line - from the 1st level or from the previous level preferably with A grade
8. A grade at ASP (exclude #3 in Primary supports)
9. PILT shade at OCCL - CSL(Green)/CST(Blue)/CL(yellow). It means that the planet occupies the sign of primary cuspal lord or Starlord or Sublord. This forms an additional support.
10. Free planet at 1st and 3rd level and if its Star lord’s grade is falling down, It would try to extend its support to its Starlord
11. Starlord of the Starlord (2nd level) / Starlord of the “Starlord of Sublord(4th level) signifies “A”
grade. If the Starlord is not completely detrimental, this is supportive.
12. In case of Rahu and Ketu, the star lord of their Signlord also can be checked for connection to
“A” Grade.
13. Role of Dasa or Bukthi lord as ruler or at CONJ or ASP. Being the ruler of period, they will have their influence as a support
46 In the supports
The Support as CSL (Green shade) is stronger than CST (blue shade)
Support as CST (Blue shade) is stronger than CL(Yellow shade)
LIST OF REQUIRED SUPPORTS TO ELEVATE THE FALLING GRADE AT OCCL:
The below rules or hints are applicable in most of the cases. Sometime, it could vary depending on the level of other planets.
In case of JUPITER as ruler or “A” grade is through Jupiter, One “A” at ASP will support C A
Two A: STSB +CONJN or ASP + Any other supports D3A Planet comes as ruler for any planet for that event. So some special attention has to be given.
Suppose if that planet has not a drastic fall or not completely detrimental (3 grade) but has strong Indirect PILT1 and good connection to its master Master period (PILT 2 connection), then it needs to be considered favorable and can be listed under waiting list.
2. Sometime “A” Lonely planet will have strong Indirect connections to all the rulers of the primary cusp. If that lonely planet is not detrimental at OCCL and STSB, be default it will become strong as if it gets “A” grades despite absence of direct Supports
47 3. Insufficient supports to elevate the grade:
Suppose a planet has “A” grade but its Starlord has “C” grade. But the Starlord may have only inadequate “A” supports which may not be enough to elevate the grade to “A”. Where ever this planet comes at 1st or 3rd level, this will be the condition in that chart. So some consideration can be given for this planet. If its 2nd level is having some additional supports, those supports can be considered to elevate the grade. In case if that planet has good PILT 2 connection to the master period, this would further add its support.
4. A planet with Primary supports and also Additional supports will be strong
The above are just for idea for understanding the logic. But there could be some variations between the charts which depend on the strength of other planets.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
A planet’s strength and weakness for an event has to be evaluated by following the discussed “Analysis methodology on the ESI grade table”, “Some Important Points to be considered” and “Special points”.
On this basis, the Strength and Weakness of a Planet can be derived as follows:
Please keep the below points in mind in evaluating a single planet or planets under comparative study
