Guest guest Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 ** aum namo bhagavate vasudevaya ** Namaste Pradeep ji, I had been following this debate of what constitutes a varga, varga chart and its interpretation and use for the astrological predictive purposes. I'm yet a novice and am genuinely interested in knowing the arguments on all sides. However, while I did understand Shri Narasimha's take on this, I'm yet to understand yours. I'm not sure if my basics aren't enough for this or your explanations are not very clear. I'm really trying to appreciate your view point or any other point on the vargas. In this regards may I ask you to explain to me from basics or first-principles as they call it. Some of the questions, I'm looking for clarity are 1) What is your definition of a varga? What do you mean by vargas are not charts? 2) What is 'division of lagna' as opposed to 'division of house'? 3) Lagna acc to my understanding is the rising sphuta, how can it have further divisions? Do you mean the house of lagna is divided? If so, isn't this division of a house? 4) Also, does your argument that Vargas are divisions of lagna mean that we are only concerned with the signs where lagna falls in the various vargas and not anything else from those charts? i.e planets in other signs of the varga, the houses etc. 5) According to your school of thought, what is the way in which vargas need to be used, if at all, in the astrological reading/prediction. 6) Are you implying that Navamsa is an exception to other vargas if so in what ways? Besides Rasi and Navamsa, what are the other vargas that needed to be looked into and for what specific aspects of native do we need to look at those? 7) If possible, can you take an example of a native's chart and any one area say career or marriage or progeny and go though the steps involved in reading his Rasi, Navamsa or any other vargas you may want to use or not use and explain that area of the native. I'm not looking at the predicitive ability yet.. so you can use the chart of a known native for making me understand your point of view. I'm currently not affiliated to any group and I'm posting this coz after many posts on this debate, I'm yet so confused on your take and hence a detailed response from you is appreciated. thanks and regards -Prasad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not easy to predict in twin horoscopes especially if the birth time difference is negligible.I have here the details of a set of twins with t.o.b difference of just one minute:d.o.b 17 Nov 2004t.o.b 18-40 and 18-41 respectivelyp.o.b Bangalore, Indiathe birth was by c-section and that explains the negligible difference in birth time.In this set of charts I have not been able to find any differences in the divisional charts also.Looks wise they are very different and even display differences in nature.Could there be any different methods of judging twin horoscopes?Regards,ennaye-- In vedic astrology, "Narasimha P.V.R.

If you use those guidelines, you will not really see the differences between these twins. For example, Saravali says that one born in the 5th navamsa of Gemini has a wide face, large chest, big head, deception, strong shoulders etc. It says that one born in the 6th navamsa of Gemini has sweet looks, talkative nature, uneven forehead, nice body, red lips etc.> > Now, how do you explain the glaring difference between these two twins using just the above?> > One twin is insane and the other is brilliant and has degrees in engineering and medicine.> > If you take houses in divisional charts, you can explain the differences.> > BTW, many (though not all) old astrologers who use navamsa take houses in navamsa.> > May Jupiter's light shine on us,> Narasimha> -------------------------------> Free Jyotish lessons (MP3): http://vedicastro.home.comcast.net> Free Jyotish software (Windows): http://www.VedicAstrologer.org > SJC website: http://www.SriJagannath.org> -------------------------------> > > > Pradeep, do you support taking houses in navamsa or> > > not?
