Many people have heard of prasna and its power;
but unfortunately they cannot always take
advantage of it for two reasons:
Prashna is very difficult to perform, and it requires
extensive special training. Even an astrologer
capable to adequately read a natal chart will not
be able to do a prashna chart properly unless
trained to do so, because there are special rules in
prashna that are not applicable to natal astrology,
and vice versa
The Prashna branch is another unique division of Vedic Astrology. When a person asks a question to an astrologer, based on the time at which the question is asked, a horoscope is made for that time and date. With the help of this chart the astrologer predicts about the events that are going to take place. There are several types of Prashna systems and it is almost a separate science by itself. Normally the Prashna chart is studied along with the birth chart to give an additional dimension to predict the results correctly.
Gochara or Transits
The Gochara or the constant transits of the planets in the zodiac is the other instrument used by the astrologers to time an event. The position of the planets in your birth chart is fixed. These planetary placement and the dasas you are going through as per your birth chart give you one set of parameters to judge the events. At the same time the planets in heaven are constantly on the move. At any given time how these planets are positioned vis-à-vis the 12 houses and the 9 planets in your chart also has a major bearing on your destiny. It is said that the natal chart and the dasas are what you have inherited from your past and the gochara is the interplay of the present with your past. The 1st, and the most important study of the positions of the 9 planets transiting in the zodiac, is done from the janma rasi or the position of the moon in ones natal chart. After that their positions from all other planets, houses etc of ones birth chart. Based on these positions, the gochara shastras give the detailed results.
Let me explain this with the help of the example chart and the Gochara planetary position chart as on today, 16-4-03.
Example Chart
Gochara Chart
For the native of this chart as shown in the picture above, the gochara planetary positions as shown in the charts below, is as follows.
His Janma rasi, or the sign in which his moon is positioned in the birth chart (above), is kumbha or Aquarius. In the gochara chart (below) sun is positioned in Aries or Mesha. Hence counted from his Janma rasi, sun is in the third house in gochara. Similarly mercury is also in the 3rd from his natal moon. Rahu is in the 4th from moon, saturn in the 5th, jupiter in the 6th, moon in the 8th, Ketu in the 10th, mars in the 12th and venus is in the Janma rasi. Similarly note the positions of these planets from his lagna, i.e., sun and mercury in the 6th etc. Similarly the positions of the 9 gochara planets from the natal position of sun, then mars, then mercury etc. etc.
The effects produced by the 9 transiting planets, placed in various houses from the 9 natal planets and lagna (Total 10x 9×12=1080 only) are given in the Gochara shastras.
To know the Gochara/transit results of planets click here
You just have to remember and recollect them and apply the relevant ones. While doing this simple task, you must also see their transit effects as per asthakavargas (12x8x9=864rules). Then also remember the strengths, weaknesses and effects of these planets, and the dasa, antardasa and pratyantardasa effects – based on lagna & 16 Vargas placements, shadbalas, different rasi & house placements, avasthas etc. of the 9 planets and lagna. After that you just have to synthesize, summarize and analyze these 25000 appx permutations and combinations, and then study the results as per Prashna also to arrive at what is going to happen!!
TAJAKA SYSTEM IN HORARY ASTROLOGY |
Indian vedic horary astrology and Tajaka System
Tajaka aspects and tajaka yogas to answer a query
Horary Astrology is useful to answer specific
queries depending on the time of the query. An
Astrologer should draw horary chart depending on
the time of the query and follow Parasara rules in
answering the queries. Along with normal Parasara
rules followed by Vedic Astrologers, it is possible
to arrive at better accuracy, if ‘Tajaka’ system is
also integrated. It is said that ‘Tajaka’ system of
Astrology has been given by ancient Greeks.
According to Tajaka system, there will be good or
bad aspects between the planets according to their
placement in the horary chart.
When two planets are in the houses 3rd, 5th, 9th
and 11th from each other, we can say that they are
in friendly aspect. Then the planets will be
cooperative to achieve success. For example, a
planet is in Taurus and another one is in Virgo.
From Taurus, the sign Virgo is 5th one. So the
answer for the query will be positive. It means the
event will happen in a smooth way and with less
effort.
When two planets are in the houses 1st, 4th, 7th,
and 10th from each other, then they are in bad
aspect. In this case, the event may still happen,
but after a lot of struggle and repeated trials only.
When two planets are in 2nd , 6th, 8th and 12th
houses, then no aspect is formed between those
planets. In this case, the event will not happen or
there will be failure and losses.
There are two important Tajaka combinations
(yogas) which are used in horary astrology to
answer the queries accurately. The Ascendant lord
and the significator of the query are to be
examined to understand these yogas.
1. In the Ascendant lord and significator, we should
find out which planet is fast moving planet and
which one is slowly moving planet. If the fast
moving planet is behind the slow planet, then the
event will take place. For example, the question is
related to marriage. In the horary chart, the
Ascendant is in Cancer and the 7th house
(marriage) is Capricorn. So, the Ascendant lord is
Moon and the 7th house lord is Saturn which
becomes the significator. Suppose, in the horary
chart, Moon is behind Saturn. Since Moon is fast
moving planet, it will catch up the Saturn soon. So,
marriage will happen that year. This is called
‘Ithashala yoga’.
2. On the other hand, if the slow planet is behind
the fast planet, then the event will not take place
since the slow planet cannot catch up the fast
planet. So, we can say that the event will not take
place in the next one year. This is called ‘Ishraf
yoga or Mushrif yoga’.
Before observing these yogas, we should assess
whether there is any aspect between the
Ascendant lord and the significator. If there are
good aspects (3rd, 5th, 9th and 11th) between the
Ascendant lord and significator, then the event will
happen with less effort. If there are bad aspects
(1st, 4th, 7th and 10th) then the event will happen
after a lot of struggle. If there is no aspect
between the planets, then there is no way for the
event to take place.

Apart from these Tajaka yogas, there is another
important factor which is the 11th house and its
lord. Since 11th house is considered the house of
profits and success, a good relation between its
lord and the Ascendant lord will give success. For
example, a querent wants to know whether he is
going to get the job or not. In the horary chart,
suppose the Ascendant lord is Venus, and the 10th
lord is Saturn. When counted from Venus, Saturn is
in 4th house. So, there is a bad aspect between
Venus and Saturn which represents some obstacles
and struggle. But 11th house lord is Jupiter who is
in 5th from Venus. So, there is good aspect
fulfillment of objective. So, the querent will
definitely get the job, but only after making some
trials.
Case I: A person visited me on July 8th, 2003 at
6.15 PM, Hyderabad. He wanted to know whether
he can go abroad or not. Since he did not have
date of birth, time etc. details, it was not possible
for me to erect his natal chart. So, I have decided
to answer the query with the help of horary
astrology.
vedic horary astrology case In the horary chart, the
Ascendant is in Sagittarius which is 9th sign in the
natural zodiac which represents foreign country.
Ascendant lord is Jupiter, posited in 8th house, a
house of obstacles. But Jupiter is exalted and
hence powerful. To judge foreign journey, we
should consider lords of 9th and 12th houses from
the Ascendant. Here, the 9th lord is Sun and 12th
lord is Mars. Mars is forming 5th aspect to Sun and
6th aspect to Jupiter. Also, Mars is fast moving
planet which is behind Jupiter which is slow planet.
So, Mars can join Jupiter soon. It indicates that the
person can go abroad that year, but after a lot of
struggle and trials. More over, Sun is with Saturn.
Since Saturn indicates delay, there would be at
least one or two trials which fail. Saturn is being
2nd and 3rd house lord, representing speech and
communication who joined with 10th lord Mercury
who is natural lord of communication representing
the job or profession. These factors indicate that
the person will go abroad on account of a job which
involves communication like sales, teaching,
writing or mass media.
There are 6 signs when counted from Mars to
Jupiter. Since Saturn will make delay, these signs
represent months. So, I predicted that the person
will go abroad on job within 6 months from that
date.
The person visited me again during December
2003, and informed me that he was selected as a
teacher by African Government and was going to
leave by the end of December. He told me that he
was unsuccessful in the first attempt in the
interview with the foreign delegates but somehow
he managed the manager of the consultancy
company to arrange the interview the second time.
The manager had arranged the interview after a
fortnight and he was able to fare well.
Case II: On November 21st, 2005, at 10.55 AM,
Hyderabad, I received a phone call from a college
going girl. She was in tension and wanted to know
about her friend. She said that her friend was
missing for the past 3 days. Her friend’s parents
contacted this girl saying that their daughter did
not come back from the college.
vedic horary astrology case I have drawn horary
chart for the time and place immediately. The
Ascendant Capricorn represents the girl (querent)
who was inquiring about her friend. The Ascendant
lord Saturn is in 7th house with Moon,
representing the mental tension of the girl.
Since the query is related to her friend, the 11th
house lord Mars becomes the significator. Mars
posited in 4th house and in retrogression. It
represents that her friend was in a house. 11th
house is occupied by 8th lord Sun representing
that her friend is in some trouble. Also, the 11th
house is aspected by Rahu representing a thief
stealing some thing. More over, Saturn and Mars
had mutual aspects. So, I announced that her
friend was kidnapped and was kept in a house.
Now I should tell whether her friend comes back or
not. The aspects between Mars and Saturn
involvement of police in this case. She said that
her friend’s parents had lodged a compliant with
the police.
There are two factors in this chart which are
favorable. The significator Mars is aspected by
Jupiter and Mars posited in its own place
representing enough strength. So, I predicted that
her friend would definitely come back.
The next step is to assess how many days or
months it will take for her friend to come home.
Here Ascendant lord is Saturn and significator is
Mars. But Mars is retrograde representing meeting
with Saturn by its backward motion. The number of
signs between Mars and Saturn are ten. So, I
predicted that her friend would come back in
another 10 days. After 2 days from my prediction,
the kidnappers made a phone call to her friend’s
parents and demanded a ransom of Rs. 5,00,000.
The police had taken up the investigation and
finally traced the kidnappers within a week. Thus
the girl had joined her parents on the 9th day.
Fundamentals
of Horary
Astrology
By S N Rao
A Horary Chart is a chart cast for the moment that a question is asked. It is calculated just like a Natal Chart but at the moment the specific question is asked and not at the time of birth. Horary is a predictive branch of astrology, meaning, it can make predictions with amazing accuracy. This highly specialized astrological application is very ancient. It deals with specific questions and replies with specific answers. The basis of the horary chart is the time your question is put to the astrologer, and from this a map of the sky is erected. Personal details, such as your date, place and time of birth, are not needed and so, for those who do not have this information, horary provides a method of dealing with problems with difficult situations. Horary astrology is different in another way. The chart that is calculated is for that question only and will show the background of the question (what led up to the question) what is going on at the present time and how the future could turn out if you let nature run it's course. The fascinating thing about horary is that we have a choice in the matter. If the chart shows that things are going to turn out well then we can leave them alone and relax. But if the chart shows potential problems we can choose not to continue or choose to do something in a different way which can give us a different outcome.
The principles behind the analyzing the horary chart is different in vedic astrology and in western astrology. This article is written to explain both the methods that is used. The results are amazingly accurate for both the methods. In Vedic astrology - Horary Astrology is based on Hora or Hour. Its principles are similar to the principles of Natal Astrology. Horary Astrology or Prasna Shastra in Sanskrit (Sanskrit Prasna, question) has been practiced in India for centuries. It is a branch of Vedic astrology, which is still widely used across the Indian subcontinent. Horary Astrology is a unique way of providing astrological predictions on any subject from event horoscope. It is based on a chart that deals with specific questions. To answer the questions, this ancient astrology doesn't require details like date, place and time of birth, it as an alternative answers the queries based on the time they were placed to the astrologer. On the basis of the queries laid down, a chart is formed. This chart shows the details like - what is going on at present, how could the future be affected, etc. It, therefore, provides solutions for dealing with critical situations. This helps one decide whether to continue with a particular course of action or not. Horary Astrology helps one to predict the longevity, health, success, failure, love, time of marriage, divorce, result of examination, job, gain by lottery or stock market, success in litigation & legacy etc. This is perfect for person who may not have his time of birth.
IN KP astrology the Horary method uses 4 Basic Points - the Base Ascendant, the Rising Ascendent, Veedhi & Chatra. The zodiac is divided into segments based on the Rashi lord, Nakshatra lord and sub lord in this method of Astrology. So, there are 249 segments in the zodiac, and when a querent (the person who ask the question) comes with a question, they are asked pick a number between 1 and 249. This determines the ascendant and the planets are placed in the chart for the time of query (disregarding the actual ascendant for the moment). So when a querent gives a number between 1 and 249, he/she is actually identifying a particular Sub Division, which is later, used to draw a horoscope. In this method Time of Query and Place of Query is important.

In western astrology the horary method is now being re-discovered by modern astrologers, enriching and improving how astrology is being practiced today.
After the chart is calculated we must first examine it for judgment. The rules for prediction are as follows: 1. If the degree of the rising sign is less than 3ø, then the querent does not have enough information. 2. If the degree of the rising sign is more than 27ø, then the matter is out of the hands of the querent.
3. If the Moon is ‗Void of Course‘, that is the Moon making no more aspects to any planets before it goes into a new sign, then the matter proceeds with great difficulty.
4. If Saturn is in the first or the seventh house, the Querent does not fully understand the situation.
5. If there are any eclipses in the chart (e.g. Sol conjunct Luna, et al), then the question needs to be revised. 6. If Mercury is ‗Retrograde‘ (moving in reverse as it seems from our view due to being on the other side of
the Sun) then the Querent will change his or her mind about the desired outcome as plans will come to nought.
7. If there is a ‗Besiegement‘ (the Moon is between the two malefics; Mars and Saturn, by either a conjunction or a square) then the Querent is in a no win situation with trouble at every turn.
The rules for prediction is given below
1. Determine the principal Significators:
A. The Querent is represented by the planet ruling the ASC. B. The Moon co-rules the Querent
C. The Question is represented by the planet ruling the appropriate house.
2. If one or both of the co-rulers apply in benefic aspect (Conjunction, Trine and Sextile) to the planet ruling the
appropriate house for the question, then there is a positive outcome to the question.
A. Only faster moving planets can apply in aspect.
i. The order of moving planets from fastest to slowest is:
Luna, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Sol, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus, Pluto
B. Planets Applying in a Square indicate that the question is more trouble than it is worth.
C. Planets applying in Opposition indicate that there will be much negotiating or arguing before a positive outcome
will be established.
i. An Opposition in Mutual Reception is an exception to this as it gives a positive answer based on compromise. 3. If the planet ruling the house of the question is in the first house (representing the querent), then there is a
positive answer.

Finding lost articles is one of the most exciting areas of horary astrology in which this technique truly shines its brightest. When casting a horoscope for a client you must use the time that they contacted you and you understand their query. Doing a horary chart for yourself can be tricky because of the timing factor. If you notice that your keys are missing and you draw a chart on the computer chances are that the chart will not give correct answers. Why? Horary makes you work for your answers! And it requires an emotion behind a query. So I suggest that you first search in every possible place where you think you could have lost the keys. Only when you have exhausted all possibilities use that time to calculate the horary chart. Remember horary works best when there is that emotional charge behind each question. Moon is the most important planet which much relate to the question for getting an accurate answer.
Determine the house for which the article is related. All personal possessions are ruled by the second house. All articles related to communications like papers, books etc are related to the third house. Stolen vehicles will relate to the 4th house etc. The placement of the planet in the sign will determine the significator. This will determine the direction and the place where the article is located.

One of the facets of modern life that affects most of us in some form or the other is employment. Employment gives us a framework around which we schedule and build our lives; and it is the direct route to solving many of our material and social problems.
Astrologically, employment is seen from the 6th house. It is also seen for the health of our physical body. As we all know, a troublesome job can make us physically ill. To understand the mental and physical health we should look in to the divisional charts also. Anyone trained in horoscope interpretation will find job charts fun to read and a source of some very useful information.
A chart cast for the time when an employment begins is a viable horary chart that can be used for both analysis and prediction. The easy availability of exact times for these charts is remarkable when you consider how difficult it is to get reliable times for other kinds of charts, such as those for countries or individual births. In many cases, this horary chart can be dated by a time clock. In other cases, you can simply note the time at which one began to get paid.
The exact time that a job really starts is the critical moment. Interviews don't count, for they only exist in the realm of possibilities; the start of the paid job is the real thing. There can be a discrepancy, however, regarding the actual moment that one begins the job experience and the moment from which one gets paid according to the financial records. My experience indicates that the critical moment is when the actual work experience begins -- not any pre-work socializing, but when training, or problem-solving, or the activity of the job begins. Most jobs will have a specific start time in the job description (which is recorded), and most people will remember their first day of work. Because of this, job charts are often easy to obtain.
This horary horoscope can give insights into several things. First, it describes the job experience in the widest possible sense. It shows how the job grows, changes, and functions in general. The horary chart will describe the degree of compatibility with others at work, and it will point out problem areas on the job. For example, a strong Saturn in the horary chart will coincide with a work situation that is dominated by the rules made by old men, or something along those lines. If this Saturn is afflicted, it could mean that these rules and old men are a real pain in the back. With a powerful transit to this job chart's Saturn, a real crisis could arise, one in which a definition of reality is probably being forced onto the relatively powerless person who is the employee.
Horary charts allow for the prediction of promotions, raises, conflicts, and social events that occur during the employee's job experience. The transit of Jupiter over the horary chart's 10th cusp brings promotions during the job tenure. Thus, if you or your client were considering asking for a raise or promotion, this kind of information would be quite helpful. With it you could select a favorable and appropriate time to spring such requests on the boss. Like other astrology charts, this horary chart can be analysed with various astrological techniques, such as divisional charts and dasha prediction system.
For analyzing employment by horary horoscope, the following is a list of the houses and how they might be interpreted:
1st house - The general conditions of the job; the social and physical environment.
2nd house - The paycheck, payments, and available funds; afflictions here may indicate problems such as pay
cuts or no raises. The sign on the cusp may say much about the regularity of the paycheck. Fixed signs suggest a stable pay schedule; mutable, irregular pay; and cardinal signs, frequent alterations in pay.
3rd house - Communications on the job, use of the telephone, computer, etc.; commuting and other
transportation issues.
4th house - The building or location of the workplace; the office space itself; weather conditions on outside jobs. 5th house - Recreational and creative aspects of the job; possibilities of income growth and earning power. 6th house - Scheduling; disruptions due to illness and technical problems; subordinates, such as secretaries, who
produce work that is necessary for the job to move forward.
7th house - Significant colleagues who must be partnered with during the course of the job; partners and
cooperation in general.
8th house - Others' resources; the psychic or emotional integrity of the social scene on the job; secret financial
schemes; hidden power agendas.
9th house - Long-distance travel and communications; teaching and instructing; advertising and promotional
activities.
10th house - Management; the boss; the objectives of the job; public relations.
11th house - Group activities; teamwork issues; friendships on the job; clients and customers.
12th house - Submission of one's ego to greater powers; hidden activities; regrets about the job; the job as
"doing time"; detention.
In regard to the 12th house, we also have to consider the fact that most jobs begin when the Sun is in the 1st or the 12th house. Until employers allow more employees to start at odd times of the day, most people will experience work as if it were a kind of mild prison experience.
This horary chart has a life of its own and as such can be compared to the natal chart of the employee. All the standard techniques seem to work. It is such an accurate indicator of the job experience itself, why not manipulate the time that a job begins? As a practitioner of muhurta astrology, I do this for my clients when it is appropriate. Often, the best that I can do for a client is to simply find the best day out of the two or three that the employer wants the new employee to start. In terms of time, there is some lack of flexibility since most jobs start at the same time as a regular workday-- in the morning when the Sun is in the 1st or the 12th house.
Importance

astrological
aspects in
Horary
Astrology

In astrology, an "aspect" is a geometric relationship between two planets. Aspects are important in analyzing a horoscope because they seem to make the two connected planets function together or be linked. An aspect is an angle that the planets make to each other in the horoscope, and also to the ascendant, midheaven, descendant and nadir. The aspects are measured by the angular distance along the ecliptic in degrees and minutes of celestial longitude between two points, as viewed from the earth. They indicate focal points in the horoscope where the energies involved are given extra emphasis. The astrological aspects are said to influence affairs on people according to their placement in the birth chart. In Vedic astrology the aspect is measured between two full signs.
There are 4 important factors to consider in analyzing the astrological aspects in horary astrology namely:
1. Applying or separating aspect or “Ithasala and Easarapha”. When the faster moving planet is behind the slower moving planet then it is known as applying aspect. When the faster moving planet is ahead of / already crossed the slower moving planet then it is known as separating aspect. This is the most important factor determining whether the event will take place or not. Applying aspect between the significator planets means the event will likely take place while separating aspect means the event had already occurred, was a preceding event in the past and the event will not be likely to occur in the future
2. Positive or negative aspect. The positive aspects are trine (120 deg), sextile (60deg), conjunction (0 deg) and semi-sextile (30 deg) while the negative aspects are opposition (180 deg), square (90 deg) and quincunx (150 deg).
The conjunction of two malefic planets are nasty, between two natural benefic planets is good while between a natural benefic and natural malefic is neutral and depends on applying or separating aspect factor. The quincunx implies external assistance and quincunx between natural malefic planets implies failure while it is successful if otherwise and also depending on whether it is applying or separating aspect. Positive aspects implies ease, spontaneity, naturalness and flowing events while negative aspects implies obstacles and obstructions, stress and tension, anxieties and worries
3. Dignity of aspecting planets – fallen (debilitated planets) or detrimental (placement of planet in opposite to its own house) planets are malefic. Malefic planets give strong negative results when exalted. Planets which are placed in own signs are beneficent and benefic. Debilitated planets imply lack of strength or will to attain objective
4. Natural benefic or malefic planets – Aspects between two natural benefic planets implies success while between two natural malefic planets implies failure while it is neutral between a natural benefic and natural malefic and depends on other factors.
1. RELATIONSHIPS AND ASPECTS BETWEEN PLANETS
In Tajika Astrology planets which have a kendra relationship to each other
have a hostile relationship. Kendra relationship means they are either in the
same sign, four, seven or ten houses from each other.
Planets which are 3 signs or 11 signs from each other have a
friendly relationship.
Planets which are 5 or 9 signs from each other have a very friendly
relationship.
Planets which are 2/12 or 6/8 signs from each other have a neutral
relationship.
However, they only form aspects if they are within a certain orb of
influence from each other.
Contrary to modern Western Astrology the orb depends not on the
nature of the aspect, but on the planets which are making the
aspect. It is interesting to know that this system was also used in
Medieval Western Astrology.
This is an overview of the orbs of influence: Sun 15 degrees, Moon
12 degrees, Mars 8 degrees, Mercury 7 degrees, Jupiter 9 degrees,
Venus 7 degrees, Saturn 9 degrees.
In traditional Vedic Astrology Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are not
used. However, if you use them I would advice an orb of 7 degrees.
Now the maximum orb that an aspect between two planets is
allowed to have is calculated by adding the two orbs of influence
and then dividing it by 2.
An example: for the Sun and the Moon to have an aspect the
maximum orb should be (15+12):2= 13.5. For the Sun and Saturn
to have an aspect the maximum orb is: (15+7):2=11.
A relationship between two planets is an aspect if the orb between
the planets does not exceed the maximum orb.
In that case we can compare the kendra relationship to the
conjunction, square and opposition we know in Western astrology.
The 2/11 relationship is comparable to the sextile.
Planets which are 1/12 signs or 6/8 signs from each other can never
have an aspect. Although there is some difference of opinion
between astrologers about this particular matter.
2. YOGAS BETWEEN PLANETS
For planets to make a yoga in Tajika astrology they should make an
aspect. In addition to that they should meet some criteria which are
different for each yoga. Not only the aspects are beneficial or
malefic, but so are the yogas. Only when the yoga AND the aspect
are beneficial good results can be anticipated. If the yoga is
beneficial but the aspect is malefic, then also some results may be
anticipated. However, the results will not be reached easily and may
be disappointing.
Ithasala yoga: This yoga is made if a faster planet has a lesser
longitude than a slower planet. This yoga is beneficial, because the
planets approach each other and in the future the aspect will be
exact. This is the moment when the promise of the aspect will be
fullfilled. In Western astrology this is called an applying aspect.
An example: Let us say we have the Moon at 6 degrees Taurus and
Saturn and 10 degrees Capricorn. The Moon is the faster planet,
because of this there will come a time when the aspect will be exact
(probably when the Moon has reached 10 degrees Taurus). In this
case the aspect is a trine (beneficial) and the yoga is beneficial.
Yoga and aspect are beneficial, therefore good results may be
expected. The results are even better because the two planets are
in good shape. The Moon is in its sign of exaltation and Saturn is in
its own sign. Therefore the results may be outstanding.
If Saturn would be at 10 degrees in Leo, then we also have an
Ithasala yoga. However, the aspect is a square and therefore not
beneficial. The results will be reached with more difficulty. It is also
notable that Saturn is not in its own sign and therefore in less good
shape than in the previous example. Some authors feel that if the
aspect would be an opposition results may be even more difficult to
obtain, because the opposition is considered by these authors to be
the most malefic aspect.
Easarapha yoga: This yoga is formed when a faster moving planet
has a greater longitude than a slower moving planet. In this case
the planets are seperating (in Western Astrology this is called the
seperating aspect). Because the planets are seperating loss is
indicated. This is a malefic aspect.
An example: If the Moon is at 6 degrees Taurus and Saturn is at 2
degrees Capricorn we have an Easarapha yoga, because the Moon is
seperating from Saturn. Maybe in the past there have been positive
developments but not much new developments are indicated. Some
authors feel that if the orb is less than 1 degree developments are
possible. That means that if the Moon is at 6 degrees Taurus and
Saturn at 5 degrees Capricorn good results may be expecte,
especially since in this case the aspect is a trine and is beneficial. If
the yoga and the aspect are good than outstanding results are
possible.
Nakta yoga: Now we come to yogas which are a bit more
complicated. It is possible that there is no aspect between two
planets but that a faster moving planet, in most cases the Moon
aspects them both. Especially if these two aspects are Ithasala
Yogas results may be expected.
An example: If we have Saturn and 10 degrees Capricorn and
Jupiter at 11 degrees Aquarius then there is no aspect between
these planets. However if the Moon is at 7 degrees Taurus the Moon
makes a trine to Saturn and then a square to Jupiter.
This particular situation may indicate success but also some
struggle and disappointment because of the square which the Moon
makes to Jupiter.
In horary astrology the Moon may represent a third party which
tries to help. However, the result will not be fully satisfying because
of the square aspect.
Yamaya yoga: This is the opposite of the Nakta yoga. In this case a
slower moving planet makes aspects to two faster moving planets
that do not aspect each other.
Suppose we have Saturn at 10 degrees Capricorn. The Moon is at 5
degrees Taurus and Mars is at 6 degrees Aries. The Moon and Mars
do not aspect each other, but they do aspect Saturn. The Moon
makes a trine to Saturn and Mars makes a square.
Again in horary astrology Saturn may represent a third party but
especially in this case it is doubtful whether he will succeed because
the square between a strong Mars and a strong Saturn may suggest
a fight.
There are all kind of special cases, which also have their own yogas.
However, the principle is always the same. It is auspicious if
somehow energies of two planets come together. Especially if this
happens by making auspicious aspects. Although the conjunction in
Tajika astrology is not regarded as favourable I do think that in the
astrology of questions we can consider the conjunction cases as
favourable.
I do not intend to pay attention to all the Tajika yogas as this is
mentioned to be an introduction only, but pay attention to the
following cases:
- Watch whether planets are going retrograde or change direction in
the near future. It is possible that because of this an Ithasala yoga
develops in an Easarapha yoga or the other way around.
- It may be possible that planets make an auspicious aspect and
that this aspect is an Ithasala yoga, but that before this aspect is
full a third planet makes inauspicious aspects to both. Especially if
that third planet is a malefic the ‘intervention’ of the third planet
may cause failure. Maybe you know the experience that you were
planning a date with someone but before the date materialized he
or she ran off with someone else.
3. CONSIDERATIONS WHEN ANALYZING A CHART
What is important in a horary chart is that the first dasa or bhukti is
auspicious. This is not always done when a question is answered,
but it is when we have an election chart. It is important that the
first dasa or bhukti is not too bad. That means the dasa and bhukti
lord should be strong in the chart (not combust, in fall, in dushtana
houses or badly aspected) and they should rule good houses, which
preferably have something to do with the activity for which the
electionchart is made.
4. EXAMPLE OF A HORARY CHART (ATTACK ON KUWAIT CITY)
Below you can see an example of a horary chart. This is the horary
of the attack of Iraq on Kuwait City. It is not the horary of the
attack on Kuwait, but a horary of the attack on the capital. The
attack on the capital symbolizes the fall of the country.
