Qs-To Chandrashekhar

[Guest guest]

Dear Chandrashekhar,

Thank you for your prompt reply- and explanation. I understand your standing

much better now- I believe that it is desirable for one to be exposed and

properly informed about various approaches, have them stored somewhere in

memory, before finally/?/ deciding.

I also understand what you mean by 'feeling comfortable with'- yes, I've

experienced that already- perhaps that depends on personal 'traits', I for

example, love when that metaphorical- 'condensed wisdom' I'd would say, of

Jyotish is present in Jy. approach- that in fact made me so mesmerized

/'addicted', ha, ha/ by Jyotish!

"I go beyond Nakshatra to Nakshatra pada and their Lords"- is in fact paying

in-depth attention to Naksatras, and that too seems very important.

You were explicit in your message, and I thank you for that, again.

Warmest wishes,

Anna

Dear Anna,You are right, I use the more stricter approach, than generally

followed, to the principles of astrology. I also take into consideration

opinions of various acharyas of astrology and do not restrict it to "one

system".Regarding your query,I follow Vimshottary system of Dashas on the

authority of Parashara himself, he indicated that in his opinion it should be

followed and not the Ashtottary system.I do not follow the Rasi dasha system as

I do not find myself comfortable with it.I, use the 8 Charakarakas with

replacement of Rahu when two get same karakatwas. Though I do not use them much

for predictions. I use them for finding out the Ishta devataI use Navamsha Varga

to assess the strength of the Planets.I do not consider aspects in Vargas. House

occupation of navamshesh and houses occupied by planets give me a

fair idea of their strength.I have given my opinion on Badhaka many times. I do

not consider only being lord of a particular house confers badhaka status on a

planet. I think association with Kharesha is vital in attaining badhaka status.

Yogakaraka therefore would prevail.Yoga formation as an empirical formula, I

rarely use. For understanding results of a yoga natural karakatwas would have

to be factored in no doubt.Since I use navamsha, I go beyond Nakshatra to

Nakshatra pada and their Lords.As to my insistence of mastering one system

before trying different systems simultaneously, I have already given the

reasons. You will see many predictions being justified by use of different

systems without indicating why only this system is followed in one case and

another in a different case. I think that it is better to carry out both the

operation and the post mortem using same tools. But every astrologer has his

own logic

and that is perfectly acceptable to me.Chandrashekhar.108ar wrote:> Dear
