a beginner's doubts

 

 

As I'm a new student of the ancient science that is Jyotish, I request

all learned ones to treat my humble queries with grace.

 

1. Can anyone list the benefics and malefics for an aries lagna

UNAMBIGOUSLY...? For the information of all those who wish to answer

please consider that the moon is waxing, and that Mercury is in the

company of 4 more planets and one node, in Leo, house 5, which is

causing me a great confusion when I'm trying to interpret.

 

2. Which is the house system that according to you has produced the

best results.

 

3. Is there a good book for intermediate learners that explains about

all of those usual doubtful areas that a beginner or intermediate will

encounter when learning Jyotish...?

 

thank you for reading through patiently.

Sorry,

 

I want to know if my interpretation of BPHS rules regarding this is

correct. Also there is no information regarding the status of Moon,

especially with regard to Kendhradhipathi Dosha.

 

Could you list the planets from Sun to Saturn and the nodes and say

what their benefic / malefic nature will be for the given Aries lagna

native, with the above planetary dispositions in his rasi chart...?

 

ANd regarding books, please suggest some names of some books that are

worthwhile reading for getting some of such doubts cleared...?

Hello Jaydoc,

 

///1. Can anyone list the benefics and malefics for an aries lagna

UNAMBIGOUSLY...?///

 

The answer to your query is given (unambiguously) on the following page:

http://jyotishvidya.com/ch34.htm

 

///2. Which is the house system that according to you has produced the

best results.///

 

In Vedic Astrology, the 'Rasi', known also as the Natal chart or Janma

Kundali, is the primary horoscope. From this other charts can be drawn

including what is known as the Bhava chart. But first and foremost is Rasi

in which each sign (from 00:00-30:00) manifests as the twelve houses of the

horoscope... Whole sign, whole bhava!

 

There are other systems of astrology that use different methods (of house

division) for the main horoscope, but we're not concerned with them here.

Here the focus is on traditional Vedic astrology as taught by Parashara.

 

///3. Is there a good book for intermediate learners that explains about

all of those usual doubtful areas that a beginner or intermediate will

encounter when learning Jyotish...?///

 

I recommend James Braha's 'Ancient Hindu Astrology for the Modern Western

Astrologer'. This is an excellent book for both beginner and intermediate

students.

You can find a list of books here: http://jyotishvidya.com/recommend.htm

 

Best Wishes,

Mrs. Wendy

Dear Wendy....

 

thanks for the suggestion of a good book. I will order for it rightaway.

 

Can you explain what the moon is benefic/malefic, for this nativity.

It is mine actually. a beginner's first tryst with jyotish usually

begins with his own nativity, of course...!!

 

Birth time is 9.20 PM IST, 3rd Sep 1979, at Ramanathapuram,near

Rameswaram, also called Ramnad, Tamilnadu, India.

 

the moon - is a kendhradipathi. But it is a natural benefic as it is

waxing. so does it suffer from the K dosha...? i read elsewhere that

for the moon this principle can be applied less vigorously. is that

true from your own experiences...? please enlighten me.

 

the Moon is the strongest of the planets in my nativity accdg to

Shadbala. so i'm curious to know if it is a benefic or malefic for me.

and it aspects my fourth house. I share a tumultous relatioship with

my mother, which blows hot now and cold soon, alternating between the

two extremes. Its a curious phenomenon, and puts me in great confusion.

 

More than that, with my aquarius moon, and aries lagna, I have a

tendency to put career and wealth before family and happiness. all due

to that veritable tug of war that goes on in my 5th house, which is

too full for its own good.

 

I have read that the fifth house is the house of karma that is ours to

perform in this birth... looks like I, for one have plenty to do for

my own good in the future rebirths...!!

Dear Wendy...and others too...!

 

I first of all apologize for that goof of mine...! Of course, my moon

is capricorn. I don't know why i said its Aquarius. It is capricorn.

and my lagna lord is in 3rd, Gemini.

 

Now that you have my chart, I think that you do realize that for a

beginner like me, my 5th house is going to be an enigma, that I may

never interpret right. Can you provide me with the key to its

interpretation...?

 

Here is my most important doubt. So many planets are combust. The only

good aspect on my lagna comes from Jupiter, however Jupiter is in

degree 1, in Leo - Bala Avastha. Shadbala of all planets is above the

reqd rupas. However I don't know if i ought to attach more importance

to shadbala, or Combustion or bala avastha. How bad are all those

combust grahas.

 

Rahu is in the house of his mortal enemy, and also is ALONG with him

too...! the sun is my most important benefic. However he is eclipsed

by rahu...! In turn he turns other planets combust...!

 

Can't make head or tail, no pun intended...!

 

Anyone..?!! Please enlighten me.

 

Is there any clear way to interpret planetary strength, or is it just

intuition...?
