Om Krishnaaya Namah

 

Hi All,

 

Apologies for not participating for so long. My

computer's been 'sick' over the past three weeks, so

I've been busy emptying out my crammed mailbox, and

will go through the discussions from the archives. I

haven't yet looked at any of the discussions with

regards to the VRY exercises except upto Question two,

which I last answered. I noticed the schedule seems to

have been extended on those exercises, so for what

it's worth, since I have planned out the answers on

paper, I'll post them over the next few days before I

read the archives. I also notice that there has been a

new Lesson, so I'll also post my answers to that soon.

First, I'll start with Question three on VRY.

 

" Would You consider your horoscope to be one of Raja

Yoga or of Pravrajya Yoga, or is there too much

confusion? "

 

I think there's too much confusion! There's trends to

both sides in my humble opinion, but no strong

deciding factor to either side. My data:

 

24 July 1982

9:22 am BST

Coventry, England

52N25, 1W30

Lagna = 19* Leo or so.

 

Starting with the Pravrajya Side:

 

1. There is a Parivartana Yoga between the first and

twelfth Lords, which contributes to an interest in

Moksha and spiritual matters. One of these Lords is

the Chara AK while the other is the naisargika AK. If

that is significant or not, I'm not sure.

 

2. Ketu is in very close aspect to the Lagna, and Ketu

is sometimes known as jnana karaka and moksha karaka.

 

3. Ketu is in the fifth disposed by Jupiter. Perhaps

this also contributes to spiritual interests.

 

4. Mars the Lord of the ninth is conjunct Deva Guru

Brihaspati, and this may contribute to a religious

nature. This combination aspects the ninth, with Mars

protecting his own house and Jupiter, a karaka of the

ninth enhancing ninth-related significations.

 

5. Out of the third and sixth from Arudha Lagna, the

sixth is empty and the third is occupied by only the

benefic Moon, who is also AK.

 

6. Saturn, the renunciate is in the Upa Pada, while

the second from UL is only afflicted by Mars, so this

is a bit shady.

 

Moving onto D-20, the Vimshamsha...

 

6. The Moon, representing Lord Sri Krishna, is exalted

in the fifth.

 

7. There are altogether three planets exalted or in

own houses. Maybe, or maybe not, these strong planets

help enhance the significations of the Varga???

 

8. The two Sattvik, Dharmic Grahas Sun, and Jupiter

occupy the ninth. This is a trend towards Dharmic

matters. Also both these planets are Lords of Moksha

houses.

 

9. The Lords of the eighth and ninth are in

Parivartana, while the ninth Lord is conjunct the

nodes.

 

That's what I can see for the spiritual side.

 

On the Raja Yoga side, here's what I can find:

 

1. Mars, a Raja Yoga Karaka is conjunct Jupiter, the

other trine Lord, making a Raja Yoga. But this is in

the third, and is therefore weakened. The third being

an Upachaya may indicate that matters will improve

over time.

 

2. Jupiter, the PiK and Moon, the AK are in Mutual

aspect, with no interference except from Mars, who is

Raja Yoga Karaka and a Yogada by virtue of being the

Lord of Hora Lagna, aspecting Ghati and Udaya Lagna's,

and also being Lord of the seventh from Ghati Lagna.

 

I can't see much more in the Rasi chart, so in the

Dashamsha:

 

3. Mercury and the Sun, the Lords of the fifth and

seventh conjoin forming a Raja Yoga, and the Sun also

happens to be a Yogada. But this combination is

weakened by the fact that the Sun is weak in Dig Bala

(debilitated, one might say), and also the combination

is aspected by natural malefic Mars.

 

4. Detrimental to Raja Yoga is the fact that Venus,

the Lord of GL and HL, is debilitated in the eighth.

 

So D-10 seems pretty weak. But D-5, the Panchamsha

appears to tell a different story.

 

5. In this chart, one strong planet is said to be

significant. I have Rahu in Gemini (which however also

means Ketu in Gemini), Mercury in Virgo, Saturn in

Capricorn and Mars in Aries. Jaimini also tells us

that Raja Yoga in the ninth from Lagna or Arudha Lagna

is important. The ninth from my Panchamsha Lagna

contains Jupiter and Venus, the two natural benefics

who form a Raja Yoga by also being the Lord of Kendra

and Trikona. Both their dispositors (Rahu and Saturn)

are also strong.

 

So, this is far too confusing for me. Any help?

 

Thanks for your time and patience,

 

Hare Krishna,

 

Pursottam
