Guest guest Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Dear shri Raman Thanks for your reply.There is an opinion amongst scholars that,the kind of Hora lordship that you have presented,is used only for prashna purposes.Prashna considers this for arriving at strengths of planets in various vargas.No bhava considerations.Kindly check this with elders of your tradition and give feedback. I was specifically looking for the term ''LAGNA'',as you have quoted HORA as one half of lagna.This understanding has relevance as,first varga or division of a sign has many names -Lagna,kshethra,Rashi etc. Also,we can find ''LAGNEY DEHASYA VIJNANAM,HORAAYAM SAMPAADIKAM''etc.Thus it is clear that from lagna - one should think of deha or physique.Some scholars have interpreted this as ''physical plane and all'' for their convenience.Such interpretations are needed when we treat Rashi chakra as the first varga - which is a deviation from the definition.I am not planning for a debate regarding consideration of bhavas in vargas.Thus we will concentrate on the rest.I will compile my understandings on the above in a more productive and fruitful way during a later period. Let us take Aishwarya's Rashichakra(assuming this as correct).At a first glance,as you have rightly mentioned - one can see indications of poverty.But i have observed the following points.Kindly review.All points are based on simple principles. Sun is debilitated in 2nd.But Sun has attained STRONG neechabhanga. a) Its dispositor Venus is in a kendra from chandra as well as lagna and with digbala.b)The planet that gets exalted in the 2nd,viz.Shani is also in a kendra from chandra as well as Lagna.c)9th & 2nd lord Shukra is in a kendra with 11th lord Moon(having digbala).d)Kona lord joining Rahu in a Kendra -Rajayogakaraka.e)Fourth house is simhasana.Venus and Moon are placed there with digbala showing the popularity and beauty/Arts.Karaka for ''wealth and bhagya'' jupiter is in a lakshmisthana and aspects bhagya and lagna.Though debilitated Guru too has attained strong neechabhanga -(its exaltaion lord Moon is in a kendra from lagna.Dispositor Saturn is in a kendra from lagna as well as chandra).Thus when multiple neechabhngas occur with strength,one can attain high status and wealth.Mars in strength, aspects 3rd house giving the necessary valor -perseverence and hardwork. Your points regarding,Jury and ambassador can be understood from the rashi chakra through Sun and Jupiter.Good points.Is the mapping of Ashtalakshmis based on parampara or some classical reference.Thanks for sharing this.I heard of ''Shree Sooktha Homam'' for propitiating Lakshmi.As you are from the tradition of Dr.Raman, your valuable contributions are eagerly expected.I humbly suggest not to fall prey to blind praise.Fall of many were caused by ''sthuthi pathakas'' - People who simply praise without thinking.Critically analyse our own works.Hope you will take my mail in the right sense.Wish you all the best.
