Jupiter in simha (leo) and capricorn and 2nd house before generalise

[Guest guest]

Aum Namah Shivaya

 

Dear Rajinder ji,

 

Wonder if you mis-read my text! Just two points. There is no doubt

that quite often neecha (debilited) planets can be good in a

materialistic sense, due to various reasons. But that is not our

topic here. I was just outlining standard Muhurta rules (not my

opinion). Secondly certain principles of MUHURTA (electional

astrology) and SAMHITA (predominantly mundane astrology) **cannot be

mixed with *Jataka or NATAL HOROSCOPY. And I haven't given *my*

opinions here about Jupiter in Leo, I have given the classic stand

on this. There is no doubt regarding Jupiter in Leo. All standard

texts agree with what I have written. And I have written the summary

of a few standard texts.

 

And this one is for Sriram Nayak ji- the second point here answers

your question partly. Not all principles of Muhurta can be extended

to Natal horoscopy. You will understand this when you study Muhurta

fully. The remaining part of your question touches upon nakshatras,

their deities, nakshatra padas (quarters), their rulers (the basis

of navamsa chakra), and other *basics of Muhurta. So I will try to

post an article on these ideas i.e. the basics of Muhurta, after a

few weeks.

 

Regards,

Satya

 

Note: Ancient Indian astrology was originally divided into three

divisions which were later further classified into six divisions.

Mathematical astrology, Mundane astrology, Natal astrology,

Divination of Omens, Horary astrology and Electional astrology are

the six divisions of Jyotish or Hindu astrology. A good astrologer

is meant to be conversant with all these while he/she could

specialize in some of these six divisions in order to be able to

offer good counsel. While all these divisions are inseparable from

each other, Horary astrology and Divination of Omens form a combined

system. While all the divisions are part of one whole body, each is

unique in its own way and has certain principles that should not be

mixed with the principles of other divisions. Unfortunately most

students are fascinated to and study Jataka largely and neglect

other divisions. While some have partial knowledge of Muhurta,

Sakuna is the most misunderstood of all. Very few have even studied

it as a full fledged subject. Mathematical astrology (including

astronomy) is also studied less. Part of the understanding of the

nakshatras comes from a combined study of astronomy in the *light of

the *Veda.
