PREFACE

In the delineations of horoscope, one has to deal with many problems which have already been detailed, the author's world famous book 'SCIENTIFIC ANALYSIS OF HOROSCOPE' based on Hindu astrology, which book became a big volume, so the important aspects

o

f

CONJUNCTIONS OF PLANETS could not be included in the book.

The authors's mind was in constant agitated form that withoullhis important aspect, how the correct delination of horoscope can be made. Finally, the author has the honour to present Ihis work 10 the learned readers.

In this book, the effects of conjunction of Planets of two to seven Planets in a house have been described in detail. Pilhuyasas, son of Varahamihira has said that effects of conjunction isjusl the mixture of honey and ghcc, if combined in equal quantities will turn out as poison. Each conjunction has been detailed for its benefic and malefic results. In a conjunction when a planet is found retrogradc or combust, it becomes difficult to offer the correct predictions. In this book, all ef-forts have been made to expound this point in detail.Care is to be taken for the aspects and the position of house and sign for the planct.

One important chapter 'ASPECTS AND TRANSIT OF PLANETS' has now been added and other chapters have been revised. Every human being desires 10 escape from the Evils and malefi~ ef-fects of the planets and to mitigate, minimise and to ward off such ef-fects, suitable, cheap and practical upayes have been suggested in a very detailed way through the articles, relations and professions of various planets and hou.ses,propitations of planets have also been in-cluded through Mantras, donations, Tantric Upayes, Gems, Colours and Surya Namaskar (Prayer to Sun God).

A few practical examples have also been included for the practice

Combustion and Retrogration

There are 12 Zodiacal signs and 27 constellations divided into four Quarters (Padas) each, seven planets and two shadowy planets so in all tbere are nine planets.The SUD, Venus ane Mercu'ry roughly move in each sign for 30 days, Mars moves in 40 days, Moon moves in 21/4 days, Jupiter moves in

360 days,

Rahu and Ketu in 540 days and Saturn in 900 days. The various divisions of the signs, the sources of strength and weakness among the planets., the names and identifying marks of constellations aU are not provided in tbis book and may be rdered in book: SClENTlF1C ANALYSIS OF HOROSCOPE by your author. For the correct delineations ortbe horoscope, one should first check the planetary strength and position, then aspects, then the good and evil resulls which accure to planets from ownership and then associa-tion and conjunctions.

In a conjunction of planets,

we observe that in addition

to the abovbe points, there are two more important factors namely CUMBUSTION and RETROGRATION which needs to be chcked and analysed. These two factors are detailed here-under for the guidance of re .. ders.

COMBUSTION

Combustion or in Hindi called Asta has a great singnilicance or im-portance in tbe interpretation of horoscope. Planets become combust when they are within certain limits oftbe Sun. According to Surya Sid-hanta the foUowing limits of combu.>tion are indicated from the Sun on either side in Hindu Astrology. Combustion is one of the modes of conjunction. The limits

are:-Moon within 12 degrees of Sun. Mars within 17 degrees of Sun.

Mercury within 14 degrees of Sun and 12 degrees when retrograde. Jupiter within 11 degrees of Sun.

Venus within 10 degrees of Sun and 8 when retrograde. Saturn within 15 degrees of Sun.

Rahu combusts Sun and Ketu eclipses the Moon.

Western Astrology allows an orb go.30' either side of the Sun for a planet beoomingcombuSi. An inherent contradiction is evident in this

(7)

2

theory as, a uniform orb for aU celestial bodies of various sizes and dis-tances, can not

be

conceived.

In Pbaldeepika Adhaya XX Solb. 30. it is laid down, 'The good in· nuence of a planet is at its maximum.. three quarter, a balf quarter or nil as the planets are in the exaltation, Swaksbetra, fricnd1y sign, inim· ical sign or depression sign respectively. The proportions given above are with respect to benefics or lords of the benefic houses. In the case of malefics or lords of malefic houses. it will be reverse. When a planet

is

in combustion its effects will be similar to that in depression" i.e. debilitation or nil quantitatively.

Parasara says that planets are capable of optimum self expression occupying the 7tb house from the Sun which however becomes nil when conjuncting with the Sun.

Parasara has also said that when 9th lord is debilitated or combust

it

makes the native resort to begging for alms. Should Saturn occupy 6th, 8th or 12th house, debilitation or combust troubles through poison, weapon. change of place or job, cause (or great fear, death of parent, ill bea1tb of wife and children, troubles through state. loss, confinement etc. are denoted.

Varahamihira says the planets that are debilitiated, vanquished in car, combust by the Sun, devoid of rasmis or dwarfed become like ser-pents immunilized by mantra or spell.

In Sarvartha Chintaman~ the author Prof. B. Suryanarain Rao has said in stanza 152 while suggesting that ~If the lord of any bhave is com-bust with 'the Sun (or occupies 8tb etc.) without tbe association or aspect of beneficia1 planets, the Bhave's results become defunct.

In our classical works

it

is said that during the dasa of a planet in combustion, one will

be

drawn into unnecessary connicts and quarels, wife and children are afflicted and one meets with the death of serious accidents.

So from the above discussion we find that a planet is said to lose its power completely when it is within a certain distance from the Sun as detailed abovbe. MERCURY BEING AN EXCEmON.

This

is called Ravi-Budha-Y oga. In addition the planet is called combust when posited in the same degrees and minutes of longitude as the one occupied by the Sun then it is said to be in "RAPT CONJUNCfJON" with the Sun and it is considered to be eclipsed and becomes utterly powerless.

(8)

3

It is also provided by our sagees that planets within a distance of 5 degrees from the Sun are in full combustion, if however they are 10 degrees apart from the Sun, the combustion is partial or ordinary. When the planet is beyond 15 degrees. there is no combustion at a1l.

In other classical and various texts and also in Jatak Tatva it is stated that the dasa of a planet that

is

eclipsed (combust) will cause troubles and produce untoward results. In Jatak Parijat it is laid that the planet may not prove auspicious when they are eclipsed by Sun;s rays also a planet is a house cannot advance it if its lord is eclipsed.

Kalidasa in Uttrakalamrita bas stated that one's longevity is reduced if a planet other than Venus or Saturn is combust.

Ptolemy has said planets when they arc rising or stationary produce intensification in the events but when setting, and under the rays of Sun (combust) or advancing at evening, they bring about an abatement. Alfred 1. Pearce, William Lily, C.E.O. Cartor has also agreed on combustion and say that planets under combustion become powerless. Venus in the heart of Sun CAZIMI gives vast honours and dignities. Sun with Dragons Head (Rahu) is good.

According to Hindu Astrology, Rahu combuts or eclipses Sun while Ketu eclipses the Moon.

DISCUSSION

In the foregoing verses quoted from the old treatises

we

find that combust planet becomes powerless but Venus, Mercury and Saturn are exempted from combustion. The combust planet is deprived of its natural characteristics. AU that it denotes or signifies as a Karka is destroyed, wholly or partially depending on how close the planet is to the Sun.

Each month Sun conjoins Moon and each year Sun conjoins the other planets at sometime, at whicb time they cease to be seen in the night sky.They will be seen on the Western horizon just after Sunset and after some days or week's absence will reappear on the Eastern horizon before Sunrise. The disappearance may be days before the conjunction with the Sun and it may not reappear in the East before Sunrise till many days after the conjunction with the Sun. The disap-ppearance in Heliacal Setting and the reappearence the Heliacal Rising.

The close conjunction of Sun Venus gives a warm hearted, cheerful and affectionate disposition, inclines one to art, but is sometimes bad for marriage and makes the native resentful and combative. The Moon

(9)

does not become combust but when very near the Sun becomes" the New Moon when he is said to waning and weak which is actually the same as if the Moon in this position was described as comhust.

Mercury though liable to combustion astronomically seem to grow in astrological strength when very close to Sun. tn (act a special yoga. Budha Aditya Yoga or Ravi Budha Yoga is generated by Mercury's proximity to tbeSuD. This Yoga is only formed when Mercury tbough combust

is

in his own or Moohrikona house. The combustion of Mer· cury sharpens the intelligence.

The interpretation of conjunction much depend upon the sib"ll and house wruch cancells the dosha caused due to combustion if the planet is with a planet in his own or exaltation house or in the association with Kendra (angular) <lnd trikona (trines) lords.

The general principle observd in the proper evaluations is to look for the props for weakness and dents against strength in order to ar· rive at a blanced picture. A planet exalted in rasi for instance and debilitated in Navamsa, it is cut to size. Thirdly when a natural or func· tionally benefic planet aspects an ill placed planet. the latter is absolved of its weakness or a considerable part ofit. These are some well recog· nised principles.

Varahamihira says on Ayurdaya that in the matter of deduction of longevity years due to combustion of Venus and Saturn are exempted from half reduction. Also Mercury is exempted from such deductions due to conlbinbatin

SUN MERCURY CONJUNCTION

Sun Mercury conjunction is common in many horoscopes as Mer· cury remains near the Sun and as detailed above Ihis is exempted from the combustion. Almost all astro\ogiacal works agree thaI Sun· Mer· eury combination is auspicious. The following arc some of the results ascribed by different writers:·

Fluctuating wealth, polite speech famous, respected, liked by king, a great man, wealthy and strong.

The person will have glaring beauty and strength but he will be fickle minded.

The person will

be

famous, clever, intelligent and happy etc. The abvove analysis does not impose any limitation as to tbe dis· tance between tbe planets conjoining though by implication, we bave to assume that the extent and nalure oflhe results depends much upon

(10)

i the distance between the combining bodies. There are as usual dif-ferent shades of the combustion and combination being one of the modes of conjunction, it cannot be always treated as harmful.

So we shaH now summarise the main findings of the foregoing dis-

cussion:-1. Combustion of a planet in a horoscope is no doubt unfortunate 2. It is however nothing to be alarmed.

3. It is far less fearful that Saturn adversely placed or the lord of22nd Drekkana.

4. There are other factors like aspects. position of planets in sign and house, lordship wte. which we must look for.

5. At its worst, its effects will be mixed.

6. Venus. Mercury and Saturn are comparatively less fearworthy than other.

7. As all astrological afflictions., combinations, effects too

is

capable of being over come by Gems, mantras,yantras and medicines etc. such details are provided in Chapter II and IV for each combustion or conjunction of planet.

ORBS

In aspect and conjunction 'ORB' has great importance. Technical-ly, 'ORB' is the distance in longitude within which the influence of a planet or aspect will operate.

In ancient times it was taught that each planet had an ~ORB~ or 'sphere' of influence which extended beyond its own body out into space in all directions; in fact,it might be termed the 'aura' of the planet; and that the influence or 'rays' of tbe planets were mingled as soon as the peripheries of thses 'ORBS' came into contact or into aspecting distance, as the case might be. The latest researches in scientificAstrol-ogyseem to be approaching an actual physical explanation of this state-ment, and there can be little doubt that it is the true basis of the ·ORBS" employed by astrologers and thus will explain why 'orb' should differ for each planet, as well as for every aspect. But we are here concerned with the practical application of the term, which indicates how many degreesof'approaeh' and 'departure' maybe allowed before and after any aspect becomes technically complete. The following must be ac-cepted and not taken as hard and fast rules.

(11)

6

For conjunction or oposition allow 12 degrees when SUD aspects Moon, about 10 degree either luminary aspects a planet, and about 8 degrees for planets aspecting each other.

For Saquare and Trine about 8 degree all round may be allowed For Sextile .." for Semisquare and Sesiquiquadrate 40 For semisextile and Ouincunx

'!l

For the parallel of declination one degree.

Theses arc the outside limits. In all cases the closer an aspect is, the stronger it is, and vice versa. An aspect that is only just within orbs is very weak. In some cases two planets that 3rc widely apart by aspect

may be brought closer together by a third planet.

But by way of guide and in order to assist the mind, the approximate interval, during which any conjunction or opposition between any of the planets Saturn. Jupiter and Mars remains within 8 degrees orb which has been given as outside limit. may be stated as follow; Saturn and Jupiter, one year, Saturn and Mars, very variable according to the position of earth at the time, but say one month, these periods are ap-proximate. For other conjunctions, the Ephemeris for the year of birth will of course. show exactly how long they remain in force

Before elucidating conjunctions of the various planets, it is quite necessary to study the rules of the astrology of aspects and conjunc-tion of the planets. The readers should memorise them for correct predictions. These instructions arc very important and cannot be ig-nored in the delineations.

VALUABLE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Kendras, Trikonas, Panaparas, and planetary combinations are generalyto be taken from the Lagna (Ascendant) unless from the con-text you are otherwise advised.

2. The ownership of the planets is a constant factors. It does nO( cbange.

3. Aspects are nearly as powerful as the planetary conjunctions. 4. Planets in conjunction or Parallel with Saturn is considered good.

s.

It there are two or three debilitiated planets in the horoscope, the person will have many misfortunes.

6. Good and Evil planets (by ownership) give their rcuslts mostly in their periods and sub periods or Dasas and Bhuktis,

7. When lord of a Kendra and Kana or Trine combine in a house or mutually aspect each other, both acquire great strength to do good.

(12)

7

8. Combinations from the Moon are as valuable as those from Lagna and predictions may be safely ventured on such.

9. Conjunction of Evil planets, produce bad health, unless they are aspccted by benefics.

10. By the association or aspect of benefic planet with natural, the nelural planet gains strength to do good, while the benefic retains its original power.

11. Lords of Kana (1st, 5th and 9th houses) give good, while lords of 3rd 6th, and 11th houses produce evil results.

12. When benefics own kendras produce evil, but malefics own kendras produce good. Good and Evil planets become morc and more powerful as they are lords of kendras (1st. 4th 7th and 10th) houses; 5th and 9th houses or 3ed. 6th and 11th houses respectively.

In this connection we will clarify that SUD, Saturn, Mars. weak Moon and badly associated Mercury termed as natural are malefic planets. Jupiter, Venus, well associated Mercury and Full Moon are natural good planet_so Lord of 1st is weaker than lord of 4th, lord of 4th

is

less powerful than that of 7th house, and lord of 7th is weaker than lord of 10th house. The same gradation applies to trines (Ist. 5th and 9th) and 3rd, 6th. and 11th houses also. In the case of evil planets, they gradually go stronger by beingowoers of the later quadrants or kendras and get the highest power when they become lord of 10th. The reverse , holds good with good planets. Benefics owing first house arc not so bad as those owing 4th and those who own 7th are worse than those who rule the 4th and those who own the 10th are worst of the whole lot. Remember difference between ownership and occupancy of the planet.

13. The lords of 2nd and 12th houses give good or bad results a- c-cordingly as they are in conjunction with lords of the other houses and the nature oflhe house they occupy. These lords are not powerful by virtue of their own merits by owing certain houses bUI are considerab -ly influenced to give good or evil results by the association or conjunc -tion and posi-tion they occupy.

14. Lord of 8th house produces evil results for peace and bappiness as it is 12th from 9th house, a house of fortune generally but not in all Cases. For Aries, Libra and Scorpio lord of 8th is also lord of 1st. and behaves good. In such cases we have to add that if a planet lord of 8th house happens to be the lord of 1st or combines with a benefic, be -comes good.

(13)

8

(i) Jupiter and Venus owning kendras become very inauspicious. When they occupy the 2nd and 7lh houses wilh such ownership, they become nowerful in inflicting death on the nalivel 2nd and 7th afC the nJ'araka or death houses. The effects will be shown during their periods anrt sub periods.

Oil Mercury is less malefic than Jupiter and Venus and MOON IS l.ESS THAT MERCURY. SUN AND MOON DO not give evil e .. en when they

own

8th house. The exception also has been laid in favour of Mars and Venus when they nappeR to own first or biTt1-sign as explained in rule 14 supra.

(iii) Mars does not become good when he owns only the 10th bouse. He must own the 5th house also to become tboroughly good, and can happen only for a man born in Cancer or LeoLagna. 15. Rahu and Ketu give the same results as those given by the houses they occupy and the planets they are in conjunction with, when they are powerful.

The above rule we clear from the example of Leo birth. Rahu ac-cording to Parasara is exalted in Taurus and Kctu in Varischak or Scor -pio. Now Rahu alone in 10th house aspectcd by Saturn and Ketu from 4th house and Rahu occupies Venus house. Therefore the results in

-dicated by Rahu are of Venus and Saturn. So we should carefully cal-culate and balance the strength before making any predictions about Rahu. Ketu is in the house of Mars with Saturn, so will give the results of Mars and Saturn. But while calculating the results evil or benefic.

they must be powerful. In this

case

both arc in exalted signs and will confer good results during their dasas and bhuktis or periods and sub periods.

For more details on Rahu and Ketu refer author's worldwide famous book "Saturn, a friend or foe 1" Chapter-9.

Rahu and Ketu occupying kendras or Trikonas and combining with other planets produce yoga or success.

SUN

16. If the lord of Kendras are in conjunction with the lords of Tikonas (Trines) without being associated with the lords of other houses, they become extremely powerful in producing Rajayoga.

Bul Sun and Moon have lordship of only one house, while others arc of two houses so we can say the planets in conjunction may either own kcndras and Trikonas each in himself or may be lords of different houses which form kendras and lrikonas.

17. If the powerful lords orlhe kcndras and trikonas are in conjunc-tion. even when they ae otherNisc evil, they produce good results.

t8. If lords of 9th and 10th houses exchange places viz.

if the lord

of 9th occupies the 10th or the lord of 10 occupies the 9th house, they produce good resulls.

19. If the powcrrullords of kendra joins with anyone of the lords of trikona thcy produce Rajayoga.

But whcn lord of 9th and 10th houses are joined by the lords of 8th

and 11th houses, success in endangered. \,

So the simple combination of the lords of 9th and 10th without the union of olhcr planets are best for Rajayoga. But when they are con-joined wilh the lords of other kendras and trikona houses they also produce good results.

20. PI;lncts dchilitatcd or evil cannot do anything to the person un -less thdr own periods operate. Thc planets may be exalted but what could thcy give.?

(15)

10

21. When friendly and unfriendly planets combine together they produce mixed and ordinary results. U the planets occupy quadrants, trines or places of exaltatiollS in conjunlion with friendly planet. They produe beller results.

22. A Datural malefic becomes benefic if he owns a Quadrant and become very powerful benefic if be owns a trine house.

23. A planet owning benefic and malefic houses al tbe same time becomes neutral.

24.

Also

a benefic by ownership if a planet occupies a malefic house becomes a netural.

25. Planets owning a benefic house alongwith the ownership of 6th, 8th or 12th bouse becomes a nelucal. He will do considerable evils during second half of their dasa and bhukti.

The student is now in full grip of the main rules required for the delineation of conjunction of the planets and are advised to apply them calmly and with intel(jgence.

RETROGRATION

The next point is how to analyse the conjunction of planelli when one or more planets are retrograde in tbe conjunction.

As the benefic influence of a retrograde planet is weakened. The relrogration is contrary to the regular direction of the planet and is in that respect EVIL. When malefic planets are relrocrade,lhe evil ef -fects are increased.

We will now deal this point in detail. The further details than staled below can be referred in author's famous book, "SAltJRN, A FRIEND OR FOE?"Chapler 11.

Sun and Moon have always direct mol ion whereas Rahu and Kelu

have

reverse motion. Other planels have direct and Retrograde

mo-lions

.

Due to difference

in

the speeds of planets, there is a continuous cbancge in tbe Zodic, one plane( overtaking and passing another, then apparently stowing, stopping and begining 10 move backward. The ap-parant stopping is a "Stationary position; the apparent backward move-ment is termed "Retrogration ".

The different periods of planets in retrogration are given below for the purpose of information and valuable use for finding out (he aclual occurence of an incidence.

The favourable innuence of a good aspect forwarded by a planet during rctrogration is considerably debilitated and faUs short of its ef-ficacy in the good results which would otherwise be indicated.

But the general principles are that innuence of benefic planet is weakened when they are Retrograde. The re!rogralion is contrary to the regular direction of the planet and is in that respect evil. Wbeo malefic planets are retrograde, the evil effects are increased. Aspect whether radical or progressed thai are thrown to a retrograde planet reduces the efficiency of the planet, what it promises falling short in ;u;tual results. Should bolh the planets be retrograde, the things indi-cated by the aspect would be deficient or disappointing. Hence Relrogration

is

considered a DEBILITY.

So when a planet

is

retrograde, it is teated as a debilitated planet ir-respective of its owvcrship, strength, position etc. and indicates its results being a retrograde planeL

So it is quite imperative to study the effects of retrograde planets. More details are provided in author's famous book, ~SATURN, A FRIEND OR FOE?

EFFECTS OF RETROGRADE PLANETS

1. Men:ury Retrograde. When in birth cbart Mercury is round

retrograde, the native thinks in terms of symbols and insight, rather than facts and figures. The mind works morc easily on the sub con

-cious level. hence their insight into motivations are of len uncanny and revealing. Such people are amazingly profound, creative, discovering

possibilities which are more direct, obvious, practival mind overlooks. Such people talk to themselves and hum liltle tuncs.

As Mercury is connected with Education, literature, Intelligence

and Astrology. So the person if a writer will prefer Siories of atmos -phere 10 action, Character 10 conflict. If astrologer, they are of len

more accurate in natal analysis than in predictive work. unless an event

or action is seen as an consequence of some inncr motivation, rather than outward circumstances. They do not always seem to hear other people. They justify their actions with reasons they grasp after the m

at-ter is concluded.

It is always worthwile listening to people with Mercury retrograde.

What they say may not apply to mailer at hand but is ultimatcly co r-rect.

2. Venus Retrograde. People with retrograde Venus do not find enjoyments in things liked by most people. Such individuals find it hard to adjust to outward social conditions. In conditions which r

e-quire tad and charm they arc truthful and blunt. The idealistic images or love. Se~ marriage, child birth arc quile different for them. They tend to be fastidious about things which others do not consider impor

-tant. They have generally reverse habits and thinking than the other people. They are also inclined tounconvenlionallove expressions, may

renounce< love ror religions; and become quite ceremonious.

3. Mars Retrograde. When Mars is retrograde in one's birth chart, the physical energy and vitality never rise to meet the challenge. It im-plies a stubborn, unyielding physical force which docs not move until

some mystical reasons is found for its expression. It is orten key to im

-portance and frigdity, in men and women whose physical rorces arc not unlocked until implementd bysome nonrelatcd idea or ideal.

such persons often stop in the midcll!-, of a project to recapit u-late.They often make good scientists and doctors. They also succeed in other occupations which require handling of physical material in an

(18)

-13

ganising the physical labour of other thoughts or develop quite dif-ferently.

Also such people are law unto themselves. They normally do not accept the traditional way but adopt unorthodex methods their ap-proach to life is different than usual established social norms. Mars retrograde when adversly configurated in Natal

Chart indicates persons must go under extensive and successive surgery.

Women with such retrograde Mars arc signs of marital troubles, causes the women to become frigid or to go 10 the other extremes and no middle course. Such women detest any intimate relations with their husbands bUI are easy with younger fellows they contact, they usualy get themselves into troubles.

Transitting Retrograde Mars follows the general principle thallhe powers of a retrograde planet progressively increases as its speed slows down reaching at peak during stationery period. So during its re troga-tion one should not buy arms or automobiles, buy new property or move into new house, to undergo surgery, to start a law suit, to join a new job, to have sex for the first time, to employ new servant or to enter into partner ship.

Such people frequently rebel against their own desircs, try 10 Slime them preferring 10 act, when they have to, against tremendous

odds.

subconciously seeking an excuse for the failure they anticipate.

4. Jupiter Retrograde. People with Jupiter retrograde often find success in the failures of others. They start at the point where others become discouraged, and have unique ability to succeed in projects which have been abandoned. They arc people who become surprised when they find opportunities are worked out with ease. Such people revive the failed company and uncover hidden assets etc. or in other words theydo some remarkable jobs which cannot be done byothers.ln order to achieve their'material goal, they prefer to bargain, employ in-direct subtle psychological warfare methods in achieving thcir goal. Such people do not respond enthusiastically to obvious opportunities for gain, but become immediately alert for profits to be derived from such unpromising situation.

Being of subjective foresight, they seem out of step with the time. They predict disaster where others see success and vicervcrsa. They are specially good in situation which involve an unknown clcment a chance factor. The ne,abilitywhich is possible due to the unknown ele

(19)

5. Saturn Retrograde. With Saturn retrograde, there is need to be on guard against a sobconcious defeatism which undermine thit most noble ambitions. Because of this self Protective fear motivation they tend to yield too easily to external influences. They either appear shy, uneasy, introverted, lacking in self assertion or attempt at limes to cover this insecurity with a pretext of arrogance.

They have strong sense that fate, some universal complclling force, controls their destiny_ They feel alone, isolated, sepcrated from their fellow men and seldom understood. They are secretivcs. They may be an apparent super sophistication about them, an air of total boredom, an impression that nothing could shock them, stemming from the fact that they really worry about being a bore and wish to con-ceal a fact that they are indeed, shockable.

Such people do not like to be known openly in public, for they sub-conciously fear there is no face behind the mask. They find security in intellectuals or spirituals.

6. Uranus Retrograde. People with Uranus retrograde are most creative, imaginable. rebellious, work a1ways for self,individualistic. In order to search identity and ego fulfilment, they orten reach the ,most magnificient heights of humanitarian actions. In their worst expres-sion they are self destructive, inclined to regard themselves as unap-preciated, constantly in court, wishing to reform everyone but themselves. Critics of others.

Uranus is a planet symbolising the Divine counter-part of the human ego. Such natives are generally at odds with their generation. He is the conscience of his fellows, which is why he so often seems to have none of his own.' Such people should bear in mind that those who would save their lives will lose them, and those who would lose their lives, in some higher cause than ego, will surely find them.

7. Neptune Retrograde. Such people with Neptune retrograde need to avoid parading their virtues before the world. There is a ten-dency to remind everyone else of tlteir righteousness, arousing resent-ment instead of admiration they seek. They should be selfish.

Spiritual inconsistancy is denoted in such people. Being psychic themselves, they may decry the reality of extrasensory skeptical of their own beliefs but suspect concealment of truth when others appear cyni-cal. Pride is apparently missing. They will conceal their ideas to such an extent that they will become so complicated that they do not under-stand their meaning themselves. They seek seclusion, escape from materia1 coils. They become very subtle. In their highest form of

(20)

ex-'5

pression they are able to revitalise old beliefs, and launch counter reformations of simplicity when religion becomes more ritualism or rcligjousity.

8. Pluto Retrograde. Pluto retrograde is found in birth charts of those,who subconsciously rebel against the force of group pressures and becomes the cause of collapse of established social moves. They becomes violently intolerant of intolerance. They form cliques to eradicate cliques. Such people are extremely conscious of social caste. The resistance to group pressures is their greatest single motivation. Such people have the seeds of anarchy or sainthood with them. A spe-cial trait for such people is the desire to the cbange of the course of personal inevitability and create an entirely new order for self. Their actions involving group excitement should be carefully and objective-ly analysed.

Notr:

If

a Retrograde planet is aspeeted by Jupiter, the results are amazingly good.

METHOD OF JUDGMENT

The best method to judge the influence of a retrograde planet is a measure of time, "One day for one year of life~.

When a planet apparently changes its motion from Retrograde to direct or viceversa, by secondary progression, conversly direct allow-ing an orb of influence of one year on either side or when a planet or the lights crosses the equator or the ecliptic by the same method of progression within the life time of a person or of an undertaking, some particular phase of that person's lire, or that of the project under con-sideration is affected. Research seems to indicate that these periods usually coincide with the time of the termination of the issue or of the life itself or with the conclusion of some condition appertaining to it and thc begining of some other which alters its prevailing status.

It will be noted in applying this theory, that frequently, these indica-tions appear in the ephemeri in one progressed year before or after that of the actual occurance of the event, but this is no doubt due to the factor of time which enters into the matter. Therefore, make an allowance for this "orb of Influence." So summing up the whole discus-sion we come to the conslusion

that'-"A retrograde planet allows time to view the circumstances imper-sonally and to decide what to do about it unaffected by our emotions. There are times to use cautions, m<\ke an important moves untill the planet is in direct motion."

When it is in direct motion again, you can enjoy the fruits 0'

turns direct and generally between tbese dales,.

it is a

period of marking time.

RETROGRESSION AND TRANSIT

Based on the abobvc rules and Astrological cannons we find that

when a natural

benefic planet

traRsists

a

favourable Hou

se

(1.2.4.5.7,9,10), if retrograde will give more good results.

But when a

benefic retrograde planet

transits malefic house

(3,6.8.11,12), the evil results will be reduced to the minmum.

Also when a malefic retrograde planet transits a favourable house will neutralise the good effects of (hal house.

But when it transits a malefic house, of course a retrograde planet, the malefic effect of that house will become morc evils.

On the other hand, whcn the planet is direct, he will then be able to show his pressures to the people by speaking and agonising over them, the individual with the retrograde birth planet often goes through the ~ame agonies without being able to communicate, in any sensible way, what

is

happening to him.

A retrograde planet represent a psychic process turned in ward and not manageable, except with enormous efforts by the conscious ego. A direct planet represents a psychic process, or part or the personality that is manageable by the ego consciousness.

So, rar making analysis of a conjunction of planets the most difficult

positions are COMBUSTION and RETROGRATION whcn these

are found in conjuncting planets. With the above guide lines reader can now easily find the effects of such conditions which will help them in the correct analysis.

EFFECTS OF PLANETS FOR EACH ASCENDENT In the foregoing MValuable Instruction" we have repeatedly men· tioned benefic or malefic planet. It may bame the readers, that which planets are benefic or malefic for particular ascendant? For the guidance of readers the same are detailed below:

Likewise planets, there arc certain benefic and malefic Houses viz.; 1,2,4,5,7,9,10 are the benefic and 3,6,8,11, and 12 are the malefic

(22)

17

houses. The Planets Jupiter,. Venus, Mercury and Moon are benefic Planets whereas Sun, Mars and Saturn are malefic ones.

The effects of the planets can be divided broadly into Four parts: 1. The Planets which always produce Good or benefic results.

2. The Planets which produce always malefic results.

3. In this part,the planets always remain Neutral. 4. The Planets which give malefic and benefic results.

The above four pariS are detailed for the guidance of readers: 1. The most benefic houses are Trines or Trikona 1st, 5th and 9th houses. The lords

orlhese

houses give always benefic results, irre spec-tive of the fact the planets may be malefic even like Mars, Saturn etc. In addition to the result conferred by them in the Hooscope as general, they also behave like that in their Dasa and Antar Dasa (Major period and sub period).

2. The malefic houses are 3rd, 6th, 8th 11th, Lords of these houscs always dcnote malefic results whether they arc benefic or if they are malefic, the evil results predominate for the effects as signified by house sign and planet. Such planet affects health and other matters but not the income.

3. Kendra houses 1st 4,7. 10th fall in this part. If the lords of these houses are benefic planets they dcnote malefic results and if are Malefic,then they confer the results either benefic or malefic. In the former case of benefic planet, it is not obligatory that thcy always work as malefic, they too can show benefIC results depending on Aspect, Ex -ahation, own rasi or sign position etc.

4. The planets in the fourth part are those which are lords of 2nd and 12th houses. These planets are such which will give both malefic and benefic results. The planet will give the results of these houses where the other rasi or sign oftheir lord is posited. But Sl,ln and Moon, when lords of 2nd or 12th houses will give the results where they are posited.

In case of Dasa of 12th house, lord and bhukti of a Yog Karka will give the effects of Raj Yoga.

Now in veiwofthe above rules, we analyse the position of all planets for every Ascendant showing their benefic and malefic nature is as per lordship of various houses.

CHAPI'ER II

Conjunctions of planets

Technically conjunction means when two or morc planets are posited in the Same degree of longitude, the term is so defined in Western astrology. Conjunction is not an aspect but

is

position.

According to Hindu Astrology. Conjunction occurs when two planets are in the same sign. irrespective of the distance between the two planets. The orb of aspects whether they are applying or seperat-ing are alien to Hindu astrology. When onc planet is within its orb of the body of another planet, or with the cusp of a house, it is said then to be in conjunction with that planet or cusp, the orb in the case of con-junction is

6 degrees. The erred of such position

is good or bad ac-cording to the nature of the planets.

According to Hindu Astrology, we apend below briefly the general effects of each planet while conjuncting other planets in birth chart or in transit. Care is to be taken of the Aspects of the Planets on the con-junction of the house where the concon-junction takes place. Also the sign where conjunction is posited and planet's avasthas viz; own house, debilitated, exaltation or Mootrikona etc. are also most important points for delineation.

SUN

Sun bas good conjunction with Jupiter, adverse conjunction with Mars, Saturn and Uranus. Conjunction with Neptune or Pluto is of doubtful nature.

MOON

The exact conjunction of Sun and Moon is good except when sub-jected to malefic aspect, it tends to weaken the heahh, especially in female nativity.

Moon forms good conjunction with Mercury, Venus and Jupiter, the adverse conjunction is with Mars. Saturn and Uranus and doubful with Sun, Neptune or Pluto.

MARS

The conjunction of any planet with Mars is not considered good. But conjunctions of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto is con -sidered adverse.

(34)

29

MERCURY

The conjunction of Mercury with Venus, SUD and Jupiter is con-sidered good, whereas with Mars, Saturn and Uranus it is adverse, doubtful with Neptune and Pluto.

JUPITER

The conjunction between Jupiter and Neptune

is

considered good. But conjunction of Saturn, Pluto and Uranus is adverse.

VENUS

The conjunction o(Sun, Jupiter, Neptune with Venus is considered good, but with Mars, Saturn and Uranus is adverse and with pluto as doubtful.

SATURN

The conjunction of any planet witlt Saturn is not considered gexxi but thai of Uranus, Neptune and Piuto is considered adverse.

URANUS

The conjunction of any planet with Uranus is not considered good. But of Neptune and Pluto is adverse.

NEPTUNE-PLUTO

The conjunction of Neptune and Pluto with Venus, Jupiter and Uranus is considered good. But it is considered adverse with Saturn and Uranus. The doubtful conjunctions are with Moon, Mercury, Venus, Sun,Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus.

RAHU-KETU

Rahu vat Sani, Kuj vat Ketu. Rahu gives the effects of Saturn and Ketu that of Mars. So their conjunctions be considered like wise as detailed above.

CONJUNCTIONS

Prithryasas son of Varahamihira in Hora Sara has laid down that conjunction of two or more Planets does harm to the Shave occupied. It also produces the effect of the conjunction just as the mixture of honey and ghee if combine in equal quatities, turn out as poison. So they should be analysed intelligently.

(35)

30

The interpretations listed below are only intended 10 be general in-dications., for much depends upon Ihe sign and house where the con· junction takes places as to its action upon the character or destiny_ In the following, the meaning of the conjunction has not been given so fully nor SO explicitly as one CQuid wish, but where so many have to be

dealt with it is obvious that great detail would be oul of place. and that hints only have been given. .

TI-lESUN

AFFLICTED

When a line from the mount of Sun travels to the mount of Moon on the palm denoted ill effects of such conjunction. This indicates op-position from opposite sex.

2. Sun-Mars:- One wiU be bold, of rash temprament, obstinate and not of sweet speech. He will boss over others and self conceited. Less progney, vice ads and habits. Quarrelsome, liar and cheat. But when the conjunction is aspeded by Jupiter, the results will be opposite to the above. With this conjunction, the will power and desire of the na-tive are harmonious. The nana-tive will form an idea, strives towards it and usually realises it. He has clear views of good opportunities and knows how to make the utmost use of them in order 10 attain his goal. Makes the native self reliant, active and strengthens the health in a great measure. It will be well bear in mind that a sensible native does not allow himself to be ruled, as little as one wishes to rule others, evel)Where and always reasons should rule. For this conjuction Mrs. Wachtmeister has said that in order to control the power of posses-sion, one should nol try to destroy il but to lead it inlo another and lof-tier direction. One will

be

inclined to do sinful decds.
