1rom the above we know that within the term Putradosha - there is a range starting !rom the highest Putradosha to the lowest Putradosha.
n case the dosha is not severe remedies will work. ! the putradosha is too much then remedies will not work.
! you have to assess the level o! Putradosha then you have to know a great deal o! rules pertaining to problems related to childlessness and serious problems with children.
The words o! (aharshi Parasara
! the 2th house lord is in the 3th house or the 4th house or the 56th house there is a very high level o! putradosha. This is 5778 dosha.
The good position o! the 2th house lord in endra or Trikona, connected to 9ord o! 9agna :Ascendant;, connected to natural bene<cs and at the same time not connected to natural male<cs are indications o! happiness through children - Putra )hagya - meaning !ortunate through children.
P=T>A )+A?@A means being blessed with good children who make you happy. This is a gi!t !rom your previous live. The 2th house is related to the merits o! the past li!e. +ence the 2th house is also the house o! children. (y observation on the basic rule & 2th house lord in a dusthana
n ndia, many clients who had the 2th house lord in the 3th house or the 4th or 56th house were blessed with daughters. ! a son was born, noticed many problems with the son. n most cases the son was mentally or physically handicapped or had some maor de!ects causing a lot o! concern.
n ndia, observed that those who had this combination were blessed with daughters. (y !riend who has this combination in his horoscope is blessed with B daughters. The dosha worked because the 5st daughter was born to another woman :illegal;. Per!orming the marriage o! B daughters in ndia is no oke. t involves a lot o! e'pense and a!ter the marriage the daughters will leave their home. %o the person will lose his daughters. n one case a client was blessed with B sons despite having the 2th house lord in the 56th house. The 6nd son at the age o! 5C committed suicide due to e'am !ear.
(y opinion is that i! birth o! son happens despite the 2th house lord being in the 3th house or 4th house or 56th house then the person should sponsor a child in an orphanage to avoid any mishap to his or her son.
! a person is childless then the 2th house lord is usually in a dusthana :3th4th56th house;. n case o! childless people have !ound that in E78 o! the cases the 2th house and its lord were severely aFicted or the lord o! the 2th house occupied a dushtana.
n case the man and the wi!e has the same putradosha then the problem o! children is not doubled but multiplied. %uch a couple should not waste their money in in!ertility related medical treatment. They should adopt a child and go ahead with li!e. Gne possibility is using a surrogate mother. +owever even that is prone to problems as have seen in most cases. The pain, mental pressure and cost o! treatment is itsel! a punishment !or having neglected children in a past li!e.
Problems in marriage increase as soon as the child is born in a !amily where there is Putradosha. The reason is that i! the couple separate or divorce then the child is usually lost by the one having Putradosha. That way karma <nally works. %o while doing the horoscope matching one has to consider all this and take care o! all this. Prevention is better than cure. A!ter marriage there is no use discussing all this.

(ore rules pertaining to Putradosha&
*hile there are many rules pointing to putradosha and discussing all o! them is beyond the scope o! this article, wish to tell you that i! you know the basis then you will understand.
$ust as the 2th house going to a dushtana weakens the 2th house, the 2th house gets weak when the lord o! a dushtana occupy the 2th house.
%o i! the 3th house lord or the 4th house lord or the 56th house lord occupies the 2th house it creates putradosha.
! the lord o! the 2th house is combust then also due to heat in the body chidlessness may happen. >educe the heat in the body. ! there is heat in putradosha reduce it by praying to 9ord %hiva by doing Abhishegam -pouring coolants on %hiva 9inga - milk is pre!erred.
There are 6 doJen main rules !or putradosha. There about C7 rules !or adding and subtracting !rom the putradosha be!ore we <nally can conclude on putradosha.
The navamsa and saptamsa reveal a lot about children directly or indirectly. shetra %phuta and )eea %phuta
1or women the shetra %phuta is to be calculated. The position o! shetra sphuta in various charts are to be considered especially the %aptamsa chart. 1or men the )eea %phuta :%perm point; is to be calculated. The position o! )eea %phutain various charts are to be considered especially the %aptamsa chart.
Aspect o! ?uru
*henever there is the aspect o! ?uru :$upiter; or the conunction o! $upiter with the 2th house or its lord then there is always the hope that remedies will work. >emedies may be the help o! ?od or the help o! medicine. =se both together, that is my opinion.
! $upiter is not at all connected and there is a high level o! putradosha in the horoscope o! both the man and wi!e then it is better to stop trying to have children by using medical assistance and go ahead with adoption which is what arma wants. People spend a lot o! money on medical assistance to !ul<ll the !ate that they have to be punished !or a maor sin in their past li!e pertaining to children.
onnection o! ?uru means connection with teacher, doctor and Astrologer. %o have seen that only those who have a $upiter connection to the problem <nally reach out to a good Astrologer who will tell the couple what to do. Gtherwise they do not get the chance at all.
B out o! every 56 horoscopes will have Putradosha
?oing by the rule that i! the 2th house lord is in the 3th, 4th or 56th house there is putradosha then B out o! every 56 horoscope is likely to have problems with children. That is about 5Cth o! the world"s population.
*henever a planet is in the bhava madhya :middle o! the bhava; it will give 5778 results and when it is on the edge o! a house :bhava; it will give 78 result. +al!-way between the bhava sandhi and bhava madhya the planet will give 278 e/ect.
%o even though 5Cth o! the world"s population will have the Putradosha the level will vary !rom acute to manageable level.
Gther combinations will !urther decide on how serious the Putradosha is. 1or e'ample i! %aturn and (ercury occupy the 2th house then the Putradosha will increase.
5778 Putra )hagya - ?reat 9uck with hildren
The 9agna 9ord and the 9ord o! the 2th house being placed in the 2th house or in 5st, Cth, Kth or 57th house or in the Eth house then there will be 5778 Putra )hagya as per the words o! (aharshi Parasara in )rihat Parasara +ora %astra.
%uch people will be blessed with sons, or many children or i! the !amily is limited to 6 then it will be a boy and a girl.
The above rule implies that the 2th lord must be in a endra or Trikona meaning it should be auspiciously placed. +owever the 9agna 9ord is very important to get thorough happiness with children. The 9agna is not only LL or L(IL it is the a Trinal house to the 2th house, hence strongly connected. The connection between sel! and the children is established when the 5st
house lord conoins the 2th house. akbandhya !ault
(aharshi Parasara says that i! the 2th house lord is in the 3th house and the 9agna 9ord is in conunction with (ars, the 5st child will be born and therea!ter the wi!e o! the person will become sterile :incapable o! birth o! children;. %uch a !ault is known as LKakbandhyaL.
! the lord o! the 2th house is debilitated :neechasthana; and is also in the 3th house, 4th house or 56th house and i! )udha :(ercury; is in the 2th house the lady will su/er LkakbandhyaL.
! %aturn and (ercury occupy the 2th house and at the same time the lord o! the 2th house is in debilitation or does not aspect the 2th house then the lady will su/er LkakbandhyaL.
)irth o! hildren a!ter putting in great e/ort
I/ort may be medical or through astrological remedies.
The Eth house lord in the 2th house, the 2th house lord is debilitated and (ercury and etu occupy the 2th house children :son; may be born a!ter lots o! e/ort and waiting.
+ere the clue is that the Eth house lord in the 2th house seems to give some hope !or the childless person. The Eth house is the 2th house !rom the 2th house.
! the 2th house lord is debilitated and is also in the 3th house, 4th house or 56th house or i! the 2th house lord is in the sign o! a male<c planet and the 2th house is occupied by male<c planets then children :son; are born a!ter much delay and e/ort.
)irth o! %on
! the lord o! the 2th house is in e'altation and occupies the 6nd, Brd, a trine :5st, 2th house or the Eth house; and the 2th house lord is aspected by $upiter or is with $upiter the person will be blessed with a son.
)irth o! only Daughters
! the 2th house lord is with the (oon and also in the Drekkana :Decanate; o! the (oon the person will be blessed with only daughters.
hild problem due to )hava 9ords being in certain houses
! the 5st house lord is in the 2th house then the happiness with sons will be medium, the <rst born will not live long.
! the 6nd house lord is in the 5st house the person will be blessed with sons :children;.
! the 6nd house lord is in the 6nd house it indicates absence o! son :children;.
! the 6nd house lord is in the 2th house then the son o! the person will like him be intent on earning wealth.
! the 6nd house lord is in the 56th house there will be absence o! happiness !rom the eldest son :child;.
! the Brd house lord is in the 2th house the person will be blessed with sons :children;.
! the Brd house lord is in the Eth house then the person will be blessed with son :children;.
! the Cth house lord is in the 4th house then the person may be impotent :liba or leeba;.
! the 2th house lord is in the 5st house then the person will be blessed with good children.
! the 2th house lord is in the 6nd house then the person will be blessed with sons :children;. :)ahu-Putro;
! the 2th house lord is in the 2th house and is A9%G with )I#I1% then Putravaan ie blessed with sons, i! with (A9I1% then childlessness. This rule by (aharshi Parasara speaks volumes on the impact o! bene<cs and male<cs
on the same planetary position. %tudents o! Astrology should never !orget this principle.
! the 2th house lord is in the 3th house then the children will become the person"s main enemies or death o! children is indicated, or the person may adopt a child. n my opinion the best remedy !or this !ault is to adopt a child and !ul<ll the destiny instead o! being !orced to adopt a child in a di/erent situation.
The 2th house lord in the Kth house indicates happiness through children. The 2th house lord in the 4th house indicates reduction in happiness through
children.
The 2th house lord in the 55th house indicates bahuputra yoga - many sons :children;.
The 2th house lord in the 56th house indicates putradosha and adoption o! children.n my opinion the best remedy !or this !ault is to adopt a child and !ul<ll the destiny instead o! being !orced to adopt a child in a di/erent situation
! the lord o! the 3th house is in the 2th house then the person will be inimical to his own children.
i! the 3th house lord is in the 55th house there will be no happiness !rom children.
The Kth house lord in the Brd means daughters will be better o/ than sons. ! a son is born then that son may be mostly in diMculties.
The Kth lord in the 55th house indicates more daughters than sons. The 4th house lord in the 2th house reduces the number o! children. The Eth house lord in the 6nd house indicates good children.
The Eth house lord in the 2th house indicates blessings o! sons :children;. The 57th house lord in the 2th house indicates great blessings o! sons
:children;.
The 57th house lord in the Eth house indicates blessings o! children. The 57th house lord in the 55th house indicates blessings o! children.
55th lord in the 2th indicates that the children will be happy, educated and virtuous.
56th house lord in the 2th house indicates putradosha. ndicates high e'penses through medical treatment while trying to beget a child. t may indicate e'penses due to pooas concerning childbirth problems.
+ow to use the above in!ormation on bhava lords being in various houses The !ollowing advise is given by (aharshi Parasara&
The e/ects o! the lords o! the houses which have been told to you are to be deduced considering their strength and weaknesses. The e/ects o! the planets owning 6 signs are to be deduced based on the 6 lordships. ! in this way, contrary e/ects are indicated it means the e/ects will be nulli<ed. Gn the contrary, i! the e/ects are varied nature these will be obtained. ! the strength o! the planet is !ull, it is to be predicted that the said planet will yield the !ull e/ect, the planet will yield 56 and 5Cth e/ect in case the planet is 56 and 5Cth respectively.
The basic de<nition o! ?aa-esari @oga
?aakesari yoga is caused when $upiter :Devaguru or ?uru; is placed in a endra :5st house, Cth house, Kth house or the 57th house; !rom either 9agna or the (oon at the same time the benevolent $upiter must be with or aspected by %huba ?rahas :?ood planets; and $upiter must not be weak by being in debilitated >asi :apricorn; or be in the 3th house, 4th house or the 56th house or be aFicted by natural male<c planets.
%o i! ?aakesari yoga has to happen in any horoscope the <rst thing that you should be looking !or is, i! bad planets :natural male<cs; aspect ?uru :$upiter; or is with ?uru or i! ?uru debilitated or is it weak in any other way.
%o only a strong and unaFicted ?uru can give rise to a ?aakesari @oga. Then you need to see i! the same ?uru is either in a kendra !rom 9agna or
!rom at least (oon :handra;.
Today many Astrologers hastily mention this power!ul yoga as soon as they seen $upiter in a endra !rom (oon without considering all the other rules associated with this yoga.
A person who has ?aakesari yoga will be splendorous, wealthy, intelligent, endowed with many virtues and be a !avorite o! the ing :Top most people in the land;. This is what (aharshi Parasara e'presses in )rihat Parasara +ora %astra.
?aa means Ilephants. esari means 9ion. The sight o! 5 9ion can scare many elephants. That is an e'traordinary !eat p! a 9ion considering that Ilephants are very strong. %o ?aakesari means like a lion scaring away elephants the person having this yoga will control many heavyweights around.
9ions are not scared o! Ilephants. t is the other way around. This picture shows the con<dent 9ion and the nervous Ilephants.
A person having a true ?aakesari @oga will not worry about !ormidable people. They remain calm and composed even in times o! great diMculties. They use their brain and resources to de!eat stronger opponents. That is why
selected this picture to show a calm and composed 9ion:ess;.
*hy are Astrology yogas misNuoted
Astrology yogas are misNuoted !or several reasons. The main reason is that the client hears what he likes to hear. The Astrologer !eels like he is a psychiatrist, a motivator or a !riend o! his client. +e !eels that he should encourage everyone not realiJing that is not his ob. There are other people to do it. +owever the word soothsayer means soothing the spirit o! people. (ost part o! the world soothsayers means Astrologers. %o in most cases the Astrologer and the client loves to say or hear soothing words and promises o! a great !uture all the time.
n any horoscope there will be at least 57 positive yogas. n the horoscope o! a person perpetually su/ering there will surely be 57 positive yogas. *hat is not spoken about is the C7 duryogas :or bad yogas;. that are present in the same horoscope. They are conveniently ignored.
Another reason is that Astrology is not standardiJed. This is not the !ault o! the clients. Top Astrologers should oin together and create a standard. That will happen only i! Astrology is taught in schools and colleges like medicine and engineering. Astrologers and people who are interested in Astrology should spend a great deal o! time in systematic research and proving Astrological rules. Gver the years many errors have crept into Astrology. They should be located and removed like the weeds in a paddy <eld.
Astrologers should charge a <'ed !ee to all his clients and he should collect it <rst. ! the client pays up at the end o! the consultation, there is a great need !or the Astrologer to tell something that makes his client very happy so that he may pay more.
Di/erence o! opinion is normal in any <eld. Iven in the <eld o! medicine have noticed di/erent views and opinions on the same patient and condition despite standardiJation.
1or e'ample when had a retina :eye; problem, 6 top doctors o! hennai gave me diagonally opposite views. The second chie! doctor in!ormed me that the medicine given to me by the 5st chie! doctor was the most harm!ul one. They have diagnosed the same eye problem that had in 6 opposite directions. *hy that happened is known to me because am an Astrologer. was meant to have a retina problem in the le!t eye as per )righu %utras. developed the problem during a bad dasha and bhukti and when it was also an Ashtama %ani phase. %o smiled at the !ailure o! top doctors and their medicines. The 6nd doctor was wise enough to listen to me when spoke o! the wisdom in Astrology !or about 6 hours despite many patients waiting outside the room.
(any people now-a-days write books on Astrology. %ome o! them do careless translations o! sanskrit lines or write their own opinion based on their limited e'perience. They deviate !rom the original rules and de<nition.
There are Astrologers who love to cancel any =$A Dosha that appears in !ront o! them by saying, Lwhich Astrologer told you have =$A DoshaL thinking it is something like AD%.
%o when Astrologers seen a $upiter in endra !rom (oon they say, L*owO @ou have got ?aakesari @ogaOL ! you know that a misNuoted ?aekesari yoga happens to BB8 o! the world"s population you will not wow it so much. ! the Astrologer knows the real rule then he will not ump to conclusions so Nuickly without checking other matters o! $upiter.
+ow o!ten does the misNuoted ?aakesari @oga happen
?oing by the loose de<nition that ust a $upiter !rom endra to (oon is enough to cause the @oga then C out o! every 56 people must have ?aakesari @oga.
%o that means BB8 o! the people in the world will have a misNuoted ?aakesari @oga. >ight@ou may wonder how. I'pressed in another way you can say 5 out o! every B person is likely to have a ?aakesari @oga.
(oon goes around once in 64 days. This tallies with the menstruation cycle in women that cause the birth o! human beings.
(oon will stay in one sign !or about 6.BB days. :64 divided by 56;. $upiter will be in endra :5st house or Cth house or Kth house or 57th house; to (oon C times in a 64 days cycle. C times ' 6.BB days H E.B6 days out o! 64 days every person born will have ?aaesari yoga. %uch huge number o! people cannot be a !avorite o! a ind or be wealthy or splendorous etc. >ight
*hat appears in small print
People love to skip the important rules. They tend to ignore it. s $upiter really strong They never bother to <nd out. s $upiter !orti<ed !urther by a connection with a bene<c planet At least have you checked i! $upiter is in the 3th or 4th house or 56th house +ave you checked the %hadbala o! $upiter
! you add all these check points there will be !ewer people having real ?aakesari @oga.
Actually the rules are not printed in small print. used this phrase to show how we make such rules appear as though it is in small print.
t is obvious that (aharshi Parasara had warned people to check out i! $upiter has been aFicted or is weakened by other reasons.
%o how can $upiter give rise to ?aakesari @oga when $upiter is in the 4th house or the 56th house.
*hen can you depend on yogas that are counted !rom the (oon
*hen the (oon is strong then the (oon as the Ascendant will give better results. This rule was populariJed by %hri Varahamihira in )rihat $ataka.
(oon must be e'alted or must be very strong in %hadbala or must be with %hubha ?rahas and not be with male<c planets.
%o when (oon is #eecha do not use (oon as a 9agna :Ascendant;.
*hatever it is the Ascendant is supreme. The time o! birth is the key to arma. *hat is related to time o! birth. G! course it is 9agna :Ascendant;.
Take the case o! celebrities and politicians. @ou will <nd many good yogas !rom 9agna and not that much !rom the (oon sign.
%o there is a True ?aakesari @oga and a #on-so-real ?aakesari @oga or a 1ake ?aakesari @oga.
*hat happens i! you do not have a True ?aakesari @oga
Don"t worry. There are so many yogas in Astrology. ! not this, another yoga will be there. A yoga is a combination o! planets in certain houses. There are about 5777 yogas listed in Vedic Astrology. The top 2 are the Pancha (ahapurusha @oga. will write about it separately. (ore the positive yogas the better it gets. At the same time negative yogas dimish the e/ects o! the positive yogas.
%o i! you get serious about yogas then check out both the good one and the bad ones. #o use ust harping on the good one"s alone and then complain nothing works in Astrology.
@ogas seen !rom Ascendant are more power!ul
@ogas seen !rom %un is the weakest. t is 628 reliable. ! the %un is weak the score will decrease.
@ogas seen !rom the (oon is 278 reliable. ! (oon is weak the score will decrease. The strength o! the (oon and the sign is very important.
@ogas seen !rom the 9agna :Ascendant; is 5778 reliable. n !act it goes without saying that the most important re!erence point in a horsocope is 9agna.
?aakesari @oga seen !rom 9agna
! ?aakesari @oga e'ists !rom 9agna then it is very strong. (ost o! the rules that (aharshi Parasara writes about is based on the 9agna.
9agna is related to time o! birth.
(oon sign is not related to time o! birth. ! you alter your time o! birth even by C hours or even by a day, the (oon may remain in the same place. %o (oon signs are more general in nature.
?aakesari @oga seen !rom 9agna and the (oon
The best ?aakesari @oga happens when $upiter is in endra !rom both the 9agna and the (oon. n such cases (oon and $upiter will be in endra !rom the 9agna.
The time !or mani!estation o! the ?aakesari @oga
Do you think a person having a true ?aakesari @oga will be like a lion throughout li!e, de!eating enemies all the time Do you think anyone can
really win all the time. There will be ups and downs, a time to win and a time to lose.
$upiter is the cause o! ?aakesari @oga. The good e/ects o! a ?aakesari yoga will mani!est during ?uru Dasha or ?uru )hukti.
! ?uru :$upiter; has to give good results it obviously means that ?uru must be well placed !rom 9agna. The dasha and bhukti chapter deals with $upiter"s position !rom 9agna.
%o you now will understand that the ?aakesari @oga must be present with $upiter in a good position !rom 9agna too.
The dasha and bhukti works !rom 9agna and not !rom the (oon"s position. %o it is very important that the yogas causing planets are in good position !rom the 9agna too. hope you got the point.
