Graha Drishti & Nakshatra Drishti

[Guest guest]

Vijay,

 

When we look at the aspects of planets on rasis, we know that Jupiter

aspects the 5th, 7th and 9th houses from him by graha drishti.

However, based on the rasi he occupies, Jupiter has rasi drishti on

some rasis.

 

Similarly, when we look at the aspects of planets on nakshatras, we

have two kind of aspects. As you said, Jupiter aspects the 10th, 15th

and 19th stars from him. This is analogous to graha drishti.

 

Now, analogous to rasi drishti in rasi-based charts, we have

nakshatra drishti in nakshatra-based charts. If you write down a rasi-

based chart (rasi, navamsa etc) in the south Indian format, you can

see that drawing vertical, horizontal and crossward lines from one

rasi, you can find the other rasis aspected by the rasi. It works

exactly in the same way in nakshatra chakra (Sarvatobhadra chakra).

Rohini is on the right. So draw a horizontal line and two cross-ward

lines to the left from it. They meet Aswini, Abhijit and Swaati. A

planet aspects (by nakshatra drishti analogous to rasi drishti) the

nakshatras aspected by the nakshatra it is placed in. So Jupiter in

Swaati and Mercury/Venus in Aswini aspect Rohini in my natal chart.

This was, I thought, a reason for astrological progress in Moon's

Tribhagi dasa corresponding to Rohini.

 

May Jupiter's light shine on us,

Narasimha
