I am not an expert in financial astrology at all. But I could not reject an

opportunity to speak in front of Medha Dakshinamurthy and hence went to

Saylorsburg in May to talk about financial astrology. So take the material that

I am going to direct you to with a pinch of salt. I am quite sure that there is

some worthy stuff in it and equally sure that it is not refined yet.

 

You can download all the presentations I made at Arsha Vidya Gurukulam on May 15 at

 

http://www.VedicAstrologer.org/tmp/avg_nrao_2005.zip

 

Unzip the file and you will get four PowerPoint slide shows.

 

Unfortunately, these are just the presentations that served as an anchor for my

talking and may not mean much without some explanation. But try to peruse them

and some details may still be clear.

 

In our tradition, we use Kashinatha Hora chart for wealth and finances. The

above zip file contains a presentation on hora chart also. Go thru the

presentation on hora chart, as that is the basis for the rest.

 

The presentation on national finances is the one on stock market and should be

the one you are interested in. Let me give the gist so that it is easy to

follow the presentation. I basically presented two key methods:

 

(1) Kartika Sukla Pratipada chart and Compressed Vimsottari dasa:

 

Make a chart for the beginning of Kartika Sukla Pratipada (day after Diwali).

This is the beginning of the financial new year, as Libra is the natural sign

of business and luminaries conjoin in Libra at that time.

 

Judge the strength of the rasi and hora charts. I give more importance to hora chart.

 

I use compressed Vimsottari dasa to judge the trends within the year. I find the

3 parts rule very efficient and it is clearly given in the presentation.

 

Let me illustrate this with an example. Make the Kartika Sukla Pratipada (called

"Financial new year chart" in the mundane tab of JHora) of 2004-05 for

Washington DC. In the D-2 chart, Mercury is the 8th lord from Scorpio lagna and

afflicts lagna along with Rahu. Being a malefic in this D-2 chart, he gives the

results of his avastha in the first 1/3rd, results of yogas in the middle 1/3rd

and the results of his ownerships and occupancy in the last 1/3rd. So we

conclude that Feb 28-Mar 22 is bad for the market (results of "8th lord in

lagna" given by Mercury) and result in a fall. That indeed happened.

 

I was hoping to get away with some retro-analysis at the seminar, but these guys

pushed me to make predictions. As some other astrologers at the seminar were

expecting a stock market crash in June-July timeframe, they asked me how that

period was.

 

You can see that Sun and Moon dasas run during June 10-July 26. Sun and Moon are

the 10th and 9th lord conjoined in 7th and giving a raja yoga. So I said that

there would not be a crash or a fall and that markets would in general do well

during June-July (S&P 500 reached new records for the year). Sun is in the

house of adhisatru and Moon is badhakesha. So I was expecting some blips, but I

thought the overall period would be good. Especially, I said I expected the

middle one-third of Moon dasa (July 7-19) to be excellent, as Moon would then

give the result of his raja yoga with Sun. The results of the yogas are given

in the middle one-third. I think the stock has indeed done well then and

climbed to annual records.

 

Of course, I got lucky and this method is certainly not fool-proof. It is

promising but needs more work. Unfortunately, I have no time for financial

astrology. I find other branches of astorlogy more interesting and soend more

time on them. But you can try to refine my approach.

 

(2) Tribhagi Vimsottari and Sarvatobhadra Chakra

 

This is not specific to US or a country and a method for the overall world

markets. Find Tribhagi Vimsottari dasa. Starting from Moon's star, we will go

thru the 27 stars during the year. Take the current Tribhagi Vimsottari dasa

star and take it as the progressed janma tara. Find vedhas, drishtis (aspects)

and lattas (kicks) on it in Sarvatobhadra chakra. Nadis of stars can also be

considered. A latta/drishti/vedha from a malefic planet on progressed janma

tara can be particularly bad if the planet is transiting in a malefic nadi

(e.g. Prachanda nadi). A drishti/vedha from a benefic planet on progressed

janma tara can be particularly good if the planet is transiting in a benefic

nadi (e.g. Amrita nadi). The nadis are defined in the slides.

 

As an example, take April 12-15, 2005. As per compressed Tribhagi Vimsottari

dasa of Kartika Sukla Pratipada chart of 2004-05, Mercury dasa corresponding to

Revati star was running during April 5-23. Rahu was transiting in Revati star.

Sun's presence alleviated problems till April 13 or so. Sun moved away from

Revati and Rahu in a dehana (malefic) nakshatra was alone afflicting the

progressed janma nakshatra. So there was a big fall after April 13.

 

As another example, take the Tribhagi Vimsottari dasa of Venus corresponding to

Bharani star during April 29-May 19. Bharani was being transited by Sun and

Venus (Sun is considered a benefic here) during early May and then by only Sun.

Though Mars was aspecting Bharani when the dasa started, his ability to harm was

ineffective in an Amrita nadi star (Dhanishtha). In any case, Mars moved to

Satabhishak later and stopped aspecting Bharani. So it was a good period. Then

came a blip, which cannot be explained based on this technique. But on May 18,

Mercury moved into Bharani and May 18 and 19 were days of solid gains.

 

Like this, it is possible to find the vedhas, aspects, lattas etc on the

progressed janma tara (by using the Tribhagi Vimsottari dasa compressed to the

year as the progression of janma tara within the year) and make reasonable

judgments. Of course, a more perfect assessment requires us to use karma and

adhana taras in addition to janma tara.

 

This technique is my research. However, it is based on foundations given by

tradition. Nadis of stars, vedhas, aspects, special nakshatras such as adhana

tara, lattas, Sarvatobhadra chakra etc are all from tradition. Even Tribhagi

Vimsottari dasa is from tradition. My only innovation was to link them and to

use tyhe progressed janma tara as per Tribhagi to check transits in

Sarvatobhadra chakra.

 

This technique is less reliable than the above technique, but shows some big

transitions well. The two techniques together seem to give a reasonable picture

in 70% cases. But as I said, refinement is needed.

 

That's all I have time to write for now. I'll now go back to my Tithi Pravesha book.

 

May Jupiter's light shine on us,
