Sarat Chander <jsarat@h...> Jaya Jaya Jagannath Dear Sarat, This is concerning your questions about the prasna method. There is some error and please note this carefully for the future use: You wrote:- Step 1 : Make the prashna chart Step 2 : Find the Arudha Lagna - The prashna Arudha indicates the area of the problem. SANJAY: The prasna Arudha Lagna gives the area to look for the "ROOT" of the problem. The Arudha cannot be in houses 1,2,6,7,8 & 12. Hence the root of the problem cannot be in these houses. The exact problem/ query is seen from the placement of the lord of the Prasna Arudha. In one query which we practised, the prasna Lagna was Virgo with the lord Mercury in debility with Jupiter in the seventh house. The Prasna Arudha was in Gemini in the tenth showing that decision making(tenth house ruled by mercury which is in debility) regarding direction of life/career(tenth house) was the root problem. The Lord of Prasna Arudha was in the seventh in debility. Hence the problem manifested in the form of a question.."Whether to Marry or Renounce". The Mercury conjoins the 4th Lord Jupiter and some doubts about his "Education" was also thrown in. Thus, the placement of the lords is very vital to the manifestation of the query. This native thought that his most nice girlfriend was a hindrance to his spiritual path. This is wrong. His life and Career hinge around this marriage and after marriage/ engagement, his fortunes will boom. Step 3 : Ask the person concerned a number between 0 - 108. SANJAY: Slight correction 1 to 108 instead of 0 to 108. Step 4 : Divide this number by 12 (the 12 is for signs - is it) - the Quotient + 1 indicates the planet of influence; and the remainder indicates the rasi of influence i.e., where the question's influence is from - am I right? Now the remainder is to be counted from the Prashna Lagna, or Prashna Arudha or from Aries (the 1st house). I think it is to be counted from the Prashna lagna. Please correct me if I am wrong. Step 5 : Now divide the same number by 9 (to fix the Navamsa). SANJAY: Correction. This is for the planet of influence as well. Step 6 : The quotient + 1 will indicate the prashna rasi ( to be counted from Aries); and the remainder is to be counted from the chara rasi in the trines to the prashna rasi which will indicate the Navamsa placement of the planet of influence. Is it right? Please correct me if I am wrong, as I have to understand the basics right. DETAILED EXPLANATION SANJAY: Let us take a number and work this out again. Say "22". Divide 22 by 12 and the quotient is 1 and remainder is 10. The qoutient + 1 gives the Rasi or 1 + 1=2 gives MOON as the planet of influence and the remainder gives the sign of influence or NUMBER LAGNA as CAPRICORN. Now, every sign has 9 Navamsa. Thus divide the number 22 by 9 and we have qoutient 2 and remainder 4. This gives the focus or PRASNA (NUMBER) RASI as Gemini as quotient + 1 is 2+1=3 counted from Aries. Now take the Chara Rasi (Movable sign) in trines to the PRASNA (NUMBER) Rasi and count the remainder from it. Here, the Chara Rasi in trines is Libra and counting 4 (Remainder) from it we again arrive at CAPRICORN the NUMBER LAGNA. The remainder + 1 gives the placement of the Prasna Number planet from the Lagna. Here, 4+1=5 or Leo and we have the planet as Moon. Thus NOW DRAW A CHART AND WRITE THE NUMBER AT THE CENTER AND PLACE THE PLANET AND THE NUMBER LAGNA IN IT TO DETERMINE THE RELATIONSHIP. +--------------+ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |-----------+-----------------------+-----------| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (A)22/12=1(10) | | | | (B)22/9=2(4) | | |-----------| |-----------| | | Planet=1+1=2(Moon) | | | NUMBER | Placement=4+1=5(Leo) | | | LAGNA | Lagna=10 | MOON | | | | | | | | | |-----------+-----------------------+-----------| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +--------------+ Thus it is evident that the Moon is placed in the eighth from the Lagna and this is a very dangerous position. "Chandrastama is Maran Karaka". If you recall, this example was given in the class for a person who had just come at 6.30 PM (Delhi) on 9th March 1999. The Prasna chart is given below. Now, THE NEXT STEP is to determine the PRASNA ARUDHA on the basis of the NUMBER LAGNA and NUMBER PLANET. Here the NUMBER LAGNA is in the SIXTH HOUSE from the NUMBER PLANET and the NUMBER PLANET is the MOON. Thus, draw the Prasna Chart and find the MOON. Count SIX signs from this and we have the PRASNA ARUDHA. The MOON is in Scorpio and the SIXTH HOUSE From this is ARIES. Thus ARIES becomes the PRASNA ARUDHA. We have already determined the Prasna Rasi as Gemini. Now, let us examine the Prasna chart with this information. DETERMINING THE QUERY:- The Arudha Lagna is in the tenth house. Hence, the root of the problem relates to the work place or career. The Lord of AL is placed in the 8th house in exaltation with the 8th lord(retirement/ transfer/ termination of job) and 5th Lord (new job or new powers)showing that the querist may have to shift a job or seek a transfer. You will recall that this was a correct reading. MIND OF THE QUERIST:- The Prasna Rasi is the 11th House and its lord Mercury goes to the 8th house in debility. This is a Duryoga and "Backbiting" has been troubling him. You will recall that the querist confirmed that somebody had been calling up traders and asking for an "under table" commission in his name and he wanted to get out of the situation. He was even prepared to resign the job as it was very humiliating. HIDDEN ANSWERS:- The hidden answers are seen from the PRASNA ARUDHA and we have this in the 9th house in Aries with Saturn in debility with the Mars in the seventh from it showing a temperamental and very bad boss. The person who has been doing this is the boss and that the boss is a thief (Saturn). He suffers from a strange kind of madness (Saturn-Mars in 1-7) and is presently about to undergo a very bad phase (MOON in the 8th is what we started off with). He will have death like suffering and will have to face very difficult days that will be bordering insanity. The querist confirmed this and said that he had always doubted the boss and was in a real fix. Our advise was as clear as the reading..GET OUT OF THAT PLACE WITHIN 15 DAYS (VENUS RULES A FORTNIGHT..15 DAYS). +--------------+ |Bu Gu |Sa |AL | | |Sk | PRASNA | | PRASNA | | | ARUDHA | | RASI | | | | | | | | | | | |-----------+-----------------------+-----------| |Sy HL | |Ra | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |-----------| Rasi |-----------| |Ke | |Lg GL | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |-----------+-----------------------+-----------| | |Ch |Ma |Md Gk | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +--------------+ Rasi +--------------+ | \ Gk / \ / | | \ Md / \ Ra / | | \ / \ / | | \ / GL \ / | | \ / \ / PRASNA | |Ma x Lg x RASI | | / \ / \ | | / \ / \ | | / \ / \ | | / \ 5 / \ | | / \ / \ | | Ch x AL | | \ / \ / | | \ / \ / | | \ / \ / | | \ / HL \ /PRASNA | | \ / \ / ARUDHA | | x Sy x Sa | | / \ / \ | | / \ / \ | | / \ / \ | | / Ke \ / Bu \ | | / \ / Gu Sk \ | +--------------+ YOU WROTE:- Now, the doubts I have is (1) what if a person chooses a number which is not divisible by 12 (step No.4) i.e., say 0 to 11; and (2) what if the chosen number is not divisible by 9 (step 5) i.e., says 0 to 8. In such an event, how do you work out the quotient and the remainder. Please guide me. SANJAY: OK let us take 4 and work out. (A) 4/12 = 0 and remainder 4. Thus the NUMBER PLANET is the Sun (0+1 =1) and the NUMBER LAGNA is 4 or Cancer. (B) 4/9 = 0 and remainder 4. Quitient + 1 gives the PRASNA RASI as Aries (0+1=1) and counting the remainder (4) from the Chara Rasi in trines to Prasna Rasi (Aries again) we arrive at Cancer as the NUMBER LAGNA. Now, Place the Planet in Leo (4+1=5). Thus we have the Sun in the second from the Number Lagna....The rest will need a Genuine Prasna chart.
