D-7 clarification - correction

[Guest guest]

|| Om Namah Shivaaya ||

Dear Soumit, Namaskar,

Sorry, Saturn isn't exalted in your D-7 - which means it doesn't indicate

male. This further confirms the daughter.

I've just switched from North- to South-Indian chart, hence the

(hopefully temporary) incompetence.

Best wishes,

Samir

Re: Re: D-7 clarification

Great point Samir, I noticed that myself but failed to surface it as you

did.

In my own case study with a girl/boy it worked out to be the same for my

first child atleast.

I am not sure about how to account for my second kid since my ex decided

to terminate one in between.

Rahu falls between my 5th and the 7th house in D7 and I heard Sri PVR

Narasimha mention that it could change the equation.

I submit my data for research purposes.

THe time has been read off the birth certificates.

Me-Oct 24,1962 13:37 N Delhi, IN

Daughter-June 28, 1990 7:48 am Calcutta, IN

Son- Mar 1, 1997 18:33 Fullerton CA, US

Dear Rafal, Namaskar

you wrote:

One method is for general fortune of child, one is for determining

sex/nature of child. Take the Lagna - if odd go forward and 5H is

first child. Ketu reverses

But which method is for what?

Let me quote from COVA 8.6.1-2: " The timing of birth of individual

children, their nature, abilities and fortune is seen in the saptamsa...

The first child is seen from the fifth house counted zodiacally or

reverse depending on whether the saptamsa Lagna is even or odd... The sex

of the child is seen from the lord of the house of pregnancy... Details

regarding the fortunes of individual children can be predicted by

treating each of the signs occupied by the lord of the preganacy as the

lagna [for that child]" It then goes on to talk about the

controlling houses for males/females.

So from this it would seem that using the method of counting based on D-7

lagna, we can know all about the child - sex as well as

fortunes.

The method of using the sex of the native isn't used at all here (only

the controlling houses are considered). But in the article on the

website, the reverse is true!

Presumably the two methods have different applications - but this hasn't

been explicitly stated anywhere. Could you clarify?

Thank you,

Samir
