Guest guest Posted May 23, 2004 Report Share Posted May 23, 2004 Dear Bettina, Mark, MuMin and all I am particularly interested in this topic because I have several charts that have this unique degree shift potential. Other than defining the ayanamsha one way over another, I find this dilemma a very real impact on accuracy of a chart. Most of the time the bhava chart will reassign a planet to another sign and house but the Rashi degree obviously stays the same in sign and house on the cusp - with defining the chart accurately, ambiguous. Ayanmasha can change the degree placement but that’s not necessarily accurate either. I have one chart in particular where the Moon is on the cusp at 0* Capricorn and Saturn at 28* in another sign Libra. If one were to look at the bhava chart, one would see that the Moon has moved backwards to Sagittarius and the Saturn has moved ahead to Scorpio. There is enough degree change too within the signs where the other planets are that the whole chart takes on a whole other meaning. Which one is more accurate? If one were to change the ayanamsha, then the Asc changes houses beside the Moon and Saturn. YIKES. I think this is where the true experts in the field are different from others being more accurate when they have the skills, the wisdom and the talent to decipher the difference and know how to accurately interpret. Any suggestions? 7/3/1985 – 8:16am (CDT) – 87 W 48, 42 N 10 Lahiri Asc: Cancer Mark Kincaid [m.kincaid] Saturday, May 22, 2004 7:33 PM 2-Bettina, & all: > Mark K...5/22..... Re: Aspects across signs- Or Bhava vs Rasi Charts.... Dear Bettina & All: This is a great question. There is a wonderul difference between someone who's got their Rising Sign in the lst degree of Aries...and someone who's Rising....Signs.... at 29 degrees.... The system you mention, creating a first house, from that exact.... moment... is called the Bhava chart in Jyotish... This is used especially when any planets are not within 15 degrees, either way of the Rising Sign, exact degree... This is expecially significant when people are born 'on the cusp' between 2 signs... Because, quite often, planets will move into different houses, in the Bhava Chart,.... It's often looked at by any Astrologer... because it represents a subtlety.... that's very real.... The key, is to consider,....finding....if the different rules... fit you! And if they do, which is the point of all these great Vedic Jyotish.... principles.... then, the subtleties.... of our unique charts....comes forward.... Sincerely, Mark K.

I have a question. Some Vedic astrologers use the " sign as house " method while others use the method of a house being 15 degs on either side of the cusp, and any planet in that 30 deg area is considered to be in that house, even if it's in a different sign from the one on the cusp. Here's an example: a young man has his Sun in 1 deg of Leo. He has 26 degs of Cancer rising. Mu (and all), would you consider that to be a first house Sun, or a 2nd house Sun? Or ... a 2nd house Sun which is nonetheless cnj. the asc? Which system works best for you folks out there? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bettina, I use sign-as-house for the yogas, for example if the lord of first is with the lord of 9th, that is raja yoga. However, if this conjunction happens to be within 15 degrees of the 8th cusp, then the yoga is weak because it's in the 8th house. Or else it applies to 8th house affairs. An example of planet changing house is in the chart of Paramahansa Yogananda. Y had 6 Leo rising, Jupiter in 24 Pisces. Jupiter is the 8th sign-as-house, but the 9th equal house. For a spiritual guru, Jupiter in 9th is a better fit than Jupiter in the 8th. However, Jupiter is strong in its own sign, and *as lord of 5th*, Y had no children. So in considering planets as house lords, sign-as-house is important. Taking the planet alone, Jupiter in 9th is a better fit. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >>Another question: do out of sign asps work if they're major asps and very close? I know that strict Vedic-ists say no, but I'm not convinced that they're correct. So, if Venus were in, say, 29 degs of Aries and Saturn in 1 deg Taurus, would they influence each other or no? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I discovered something very interesting when I studied a group of earthquake and quake ingress charts a while ago. (Some of these are posted on / in the files section in the Earthquake Charts folder. Very often the critical quake aspects crossed signs. For example the Sun might be in 29 Leo opposing Uranus at 1 Pisces. From this I concluded that aspects **do** have effect across signs, but they may be critical or unstable. The fact that two planets are on sign cusps would indicate change or instability. Therese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
