extracts from Brihat Jataka

 

 

Dear all,

 

Brihat Jataka, compiled by the Great Varaha Mihira, gives numerous

interesting combinations and pointers. A method of determining the

current Dasa / Bhukti is based on the type of clothes worn and the

predominating food tastes.

 

Sun: rough Clothes

Moon: New clothes

Mars: Burnt clothes

Mercury: Soaked clothes

Jupiter: neither new nor old clothes

Venus: strong clothes

Saturn: Rags

 

With regards to burnt clothes and wet clothes does it mean that one

will periodically subject to fire or water? Does Rags indicate a lack

of resources or a tendency to be miserly? Of course during long dasas

of Saturn and Jupiter one cannot always go without new clothes and

always be in rags.

 

Tastes:

Sun: Pungent

Moon: salt

Mars: Bitter

Mercury: mixed tastes

Jupiter: Sweet

Venus Sour

Saturn: acid

Dear Wendy and all,

 

another bit of interesting info i would like to share with you is the

determination of body proportions.

 

If Aries is 1

Taurus is 1.2

Gemini is 1.4

Cancer is 1.6

Leo is 1.8

Virgo is 2

Libra is 2

Scorpio is 1.8

Sagittarius is 1.6

Capricorn is 1.4

Aquarius is 1.2 and

Pisces is 1

 

so depending on where the lagna is the appropriate part of the body

will have the above relative dimensions. I believe this information

can also be used to determine the distance of the stolen articles in

prasna.

 

regards

arun
