Guest guest Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 Dear Wendy, Though there are software programs that calculate planetary avastas, I am a bit vary of them when things like rounding-off is involved in the calculations, specially in some border cases. In my case, I was born just a couple of minutes after the sunrise. The sunrise on that day was at 6:12:06 am. My recorded birth time is 6:15 am. I am trying to rectify my chart and so far it appears that 6:12:54 seems to be more appropriate. Now, to calculate no. of ghatis after sunrise until the time of birth, the softare programs round off it to next higher number - 1 as there is a small fraction. I personally feel that it should be taken as zero as that is closer to reality. Because of this difference, planetary avasthas for all planets get affected. When I take zero as the no. of ghatis passed after Sun rise, I get Upavesha avastha for Rahu. For this, BHPS says - " ... the native will be afflicted with the disease of Ringworm... " . I did have lot of problem with ring worms as a small boy (early Rahu dasha). It disappeared gradually as I grew up. If I take the ghatis passed as 1, then Rahu will be in Netrapani avastaha. For this BHPS says - " ...both the eys of the native get afflicted with disese... " . I developed short-sight in both eyes towards the end of Rahu dasha. As I understand, the result of the planetary avastas are experienced in the first quater of the MD of that planet (for malefic planets). With this, I conclude that taking ghatis as zero is the correct approach in my case. Do you agree with my logic? Also, could you kindly give the list of avastas for me as given by PL(assuming 6:12:54 as birth time). I want to verify it with what I am getting using JHora. Thanks in advance.
