Guest guest Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 || Hare Rama Krsna || Dear Mukesh-ji, Namaskar. Chandra is taken as weak between 8th tithi of Krishna-Paksha and 8th-tithi of Suklapaksha. Othewise Chandra is treated a benefic. So the idea is how much light is reflected by the Chandra. The more the better. There is another tradition which takes Moon in Sukla Paksha as benefic and Krishna Paksha as malefic. Here the idea is if Chandra is waxing of waning. However, my understanding is that the first tradition is better to adopt. Maharshi Parasara has described certain doshas in Krishna Chaturdasi and Amavasya births. In determining auspicious Muhurtas, certain tithi's are not acceptable - these are not applicable for all events but specific tithis for specific kinds of events. Yes, there is a gradation of more benefic or more malefic. Also how far Chandra is advanced in a tithi shows the focus rasi/house in horoscope and indicates the focus in life. Birth during Chandra in transit from one tithi to the next (i.e. in tithi sandhi) is also considered to have some difficulty. There are many usages of tithis.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 All Esteemed astrolgy teachers and students, I have a question regarding moon being malefic or benefic. In some places, I have read that waxing moon is benefic (i.e. moon in the brighter lunar half) while waning moon is malefic (i.e. moon in the darker lunar half). In some other places, I have come across that brighter moon (i.e. from 8th day of bright half to 7th day of darker half) is benefic while darker moon is malefic (i.e. from 8th day of darker half to 7th day of brighter half). Please clarify. Also does it mean that in a chart moon of 14th brighter half is more benefic than 12th brighter half? Or once it is decided that moon is a benefic or malefic, then it does not matter, which day the birth takes place? Thanks Mukesh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Dear Shri. Mukesh: Moon is soumya (conductive to produce benefic results) during the bright half and it is krura (conductive to produce malefic results) in the dark half. As you say, there is some exemption to that given in some astrological classics, but not exactly in the form you have mentioned (7th day of bright half to 7th day of dark half is benefic and otherwise malefic)....Actually, even in the dark half, Moon continues to produce good results (though meagerly) till the 5th lunar day of the dark phase. But, it cannot be said that the good results will be of the same extent as it is in say the 12th or 13th lunar day of the bright half. Similarly, in the bright phase of the Moon, its capacity to produce benefic results is not very strong till the 5th lunar day. But, it is not to say that till the 5th lunar day of the bright phase, moon is malefic....on the contrary, its benefic potential is very infantile! Generally we can say, the auspicious phase of the Moon extends from 5th day of the bright phase to 5th day of the dark phase......for the first 4 lunar days of the bright half, the benefic potential will be low, gradually increasing, with the best potential in 10th and 12th lunar days, culminating on the full Moon and then gradually losing benefic effects till the 5th lunar day of the dark half. This is merely based on the lunar phases. Apart from this, based on individual horoscope, depending on one's lagna, Moon may be a malefic or benefic. If Moon is soumya and is a yogakaaraka for a horoscope, and is also well-placed, its potential for good results will be very high. Thus, Moon's soumya/ kroora disposition, its disposition to the ascendant, and also its placement have to be taken into account before deciding on the results of the Moon in a horoscope. Blessed be.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Dear Mukesh, It's quite logical that the closer Moon is to Sun the dimmer its own light is. At the maximum degree of combustion Moon is most malefic. This lessens proportionately as Moon travels away from Sun and likewise increases proportionately as Moon approaches the Sun once more. This is not rocket science, just basic common sense. The same (proportionate) strengths are attributed to the grahas as they travel towards (or away) from their sign of exaltation/debilitation...

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Dear Mukesh, Pt. Dakshinamoorthi has given you detailed explanation on your query.I may like to add following: 1. Moon also acts another ascendant. This gives him unique importance. 2. Planets in Moon kendra produce very strong inclinations irrespective of its strength 3. Parasara says that yogas formed with Moon (Lunar- yogas) have the capability to confer its effects even after suppressing other yogas. A Strong and well placed Moon is a boon.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Dear Shri.Mukesh Goel, My understanding is as follows:- Ø I have read that waxing moon is benefic (i.e. moon in the brighter lunar half) while waning moon is malefic (i.e. moon in the darker lunar half) The above rule [kroora / soumiya] is applicable in the context of aspect / Dhirishti. Ø I have come across that brighter moon (i.e. from 8th day of bright half to 7th day of darker half) is benefic while darker moon is malefic (i.e. from 8th day of darker half to 7th day of brighter half). Chandra from Krishnaashtami /8th day Waning Moon to Sukla Astami / 8th day of the waxing Moon is Sheena Chandra / weak Moon. Its placement in certain houses diminishes Bava phalam. Ø a chart moon of 14th brighter half is more benefic than 12th brighter half. Regardless of the Waxing / Waning Moon, based on the three phases of the Moon, 12th day [twadhasi] and 14th day [chaturdasi] respectively fall under Pathra and Rikdha; they are considered as inauspicious for any Mukurtha .

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 Dear friends, (1) moon good in Paksha Bala(in an angle more than 72 degree with sun) is benefic (2) functional lordships over good houses makes it good (3) occupation of bad houses like 8 makes it malefic --------------------- out of the above (1)always holds good, (2)and (3) are subject to dispositon of the sign/constellation dispositors of the moon. ---------------------- With regards, Mrutyunjay Mrutyunjay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
