Chara karaka replacement - determination of sthira karaka

[Guest guest]

Dear Vistiji,

 

Namaskar!

 

Sorry for asking you an immature question (I should go thru the

lessons more carefully, but find discussion a better way of learning

fundamentals)

 

My question is - when there is a charakaraka replacement how does one

determine the sthir karaka which is to occupy the place vacated as a

result of the replacement?

 

For me there is a charakaraka replacement between BK (Moon) and MK

(Sun). So if sun occupies the place of the moon who will occupy the

place vacated by the Sun?

 

I shall be so grateful if you could help me with the answers to the

following questions:

 

1. What does this replacement signify? (I have some inkling of this

but want confirmation from you)

2. How to determine when such replacement becomes effective?

3. How to determine whether the effect of this replacement will be

permanent or shortlived?

4. How to determine whether the effect of this replacement will be

potent or weak?

 

Given my very rudimentary knowledge / understanding of the subject I

was not able to get the answers to these questions from whatever

reading I have done so far.
