Kanak Kumar Bosmia - Prashna Jyotish PDF

PRASHNA
JYOTISH
Author Late Chandrakant R. Bhatt

(B.A., LL.B)
Translation by: Kanakkumar B. Bosmia

Foreword
It is my honour to share a few words on the English version of "Prashna

Jyotish" by late Shri Chandrakant R. Bhatt, B.A. LL.B. The author needs no
introduction as his books "Nakshatra Chintamani" and "Further Light on the
Nakshatra Chintamani" are very well received and regarded as the best K.P.
books in the field of modern astrology. His first book "N akshatra Chintamani" in
Gujarati language had been dedicated to Jyotish Marthand Prof. K.S.
Krishnamurti despite the lack of mentioning K.P.
Many thanks and appreciations to Shri Kanak Bosmia, a competent K.P.

astrologer and editor of the world's first free K. P. astrological e-magazine "KP
E-zine" for translating and releasing Prashna Jyotish to the global audience
in honour of his Guru late Shri Chandrakant R. Bhatt.
In the first theoretical part of Prashna Jyotish, the author has lucidly explained
the main requirements of the K.P. astrology: casting a horary chart, house
grouping by the cuspal sub lord, utility of ruling planets, significators, choice
of fruitful significators in timing of events and more.
What makes Prashna Jyotish unique is its unparalleled wealth of depth of

details. Practical part covers major life events or topics, such as health and
longevity, financial and professional prospects, as sets and properties, foreign
travels and relocations, marriage and relationships, children and family matters,
and much more. Under each topic, detail subject matters are discussed further.
Professional topic, for instance, includes interviews and examinations, getting
a desired job and promotion, employment opportunities and career changes,
job relocation, leaving a job, retirement, reinstatement, independence business
and partnership, and much more. For each subject matter, the author gives
specific rules for judgment and then supplies consistent analysis of relevant
cuspal sub lords, joint dasa period lords and transit. The result is one of the
most comprehensive horary astrology books with support of eighty five case
studies.
Prashna Jyotish is a unique K.P. reference book in predicting whether any life
event of a native is promised or not by the relevant main cuspal sub lord; if
it is promised, when it will happen by the joint period dasa-bhukti-antra-
sookshma lords when transit agrees. It is based on the significations of the
relevant cuspal sub lord and joint dasa period lords at all the three levels of
planet, star and sub according to the sub lord theory as referenced to the
K.P. Readers I to VI. The true K.P. principles and rules have been explained
and applied in very clear, concise and consistent manner with support of over
eighty five practical solved examples.
This book will be of great help to both horary and natal analysis of K.P.
followers, and anyone interested in giving accurate predictions. A truly must
read for any serious learner or practitioner of K.P. astrology.

Acknowledgments
Prashna Jyotish Part l & 2 was published in 1981 in Gujarati. These books
were not available. I learnt KP through Late Shri Chandrakant R. Bhatt's
Guajarati books. This is one of them. I never met Shri Chandrakant Kaka
personally, but he is my 'Manas Guru'. I learnt KP like Eklaya from Late Shri
Chandrakant R. Bhatt's Gujarti books. Since long back I thought to publish
English translation of these books in honour my Guruji Late Shri
Chandrakant R. Bhatt.
This is my first book that I am translating. I sincerely hope that it will be

useful to everyone practicing K.P. system. In future I will translate other books
of Late Shri Chandrakant R. Bhatt.
I thank all those who helped me in writing this book. I am particularly thankful
to Shri Chandrakant R Bhatt's son, Shri Dr. Mayank C. Bhatt, who gave me
permission to translate this book for benefit of all KP system followers.
I want to thank Shri R.Satish, Shri Tin Win and Shri Rangarajan
Krishnamoorthy for reviewing all the chapters patiently and diligently, they
were very prompt and sent back the updated draft the same day.
I am also thankful to my students Shri Mahesh Gohil for DTP work, Shri
Sanganji and Shri Milanbhai Panchal for proof reading.
Lastly, without the blessing of my parents l would not have been able to
complete this book. I will remain grateful to them always.

Important Note for Readers
1: In this book all Horary charts were prepared for Latitude 22° N 33'.
Ayanamsha used for 1970 was 23°.20' and then the ayanamsha was adjusted
approximately for a particular year. Raphael's "Tables of Houses" was used for
calculation.
2: I have worked out Sayana based Lagna Bhava calculations and deducted
Ayanamsha for the corresponding year i.e. year 1981, I have used bhava cusps
with my calculations. But if we calculate from Raphael's "Table of Houses",
you may find some differences in calculations for the same horary number.
Because these calculation were done some years ago and then I had changed
the Ayanamsha, you would find sometimes, different cusps/sub lords from those
given in this book. Please keep this important point in mind while reading
this book.
3: Assume that querent has a horary question for child birth and gives horary
number 45. For this question, if two astrologers cast the chart in two different
cities, for example one astrologer in Ahmedabad and second in Chennai, the
Deg. Mnt. of relevant bhava cusps will be different. One may predict positive
result and second negative one. This is my experience and readers are advised
to keep it in their mind.
4: If a horary chart is calculated approximately, the differences may be found

in cusp Deg, Mnt, Sec. Please keep this in mind.
5: "A horary tables of houses" (for 1 to 249) by Shri R. E. Manu (Shri Rohini
publications, 202, Road no. 7, Nehrunagar, Secunderabad 26). In this book it
was found that the author made calculation for year 1976. I had checked it
with Ayanamsha 23°.25' for year 1976 and noted both matched. Asc is okay
but other cusp calculations were not correct, so I request readers to be very
careful when they use any "ready made" calculations.
6: In this book I have calculated for Latitude 22° N 33' and year 1970. For
experience I have calculated some horary charts from Raphael's Tables of
Houses, so do consider it also.
7: Some use 'Universal Table of Houses', some use Raphael's Tables of Houses',
some others use simplified tables of houses. We found differences in all above
mentioned tables. So readers have to be careful about the relevant bhava, if a
change is found in the relevant bhava sub lord, after changing +/- one min.
difference. Because if the sub lord is changed, then results also may change.
Same thing may happen with planets. Many publications are available for
ephemeris. We have found differences in various ephemeris, especially in Moon's
Deg, Min. In dasa calculation one min. of difference in Moon's position can
change the dasa days by 3 to 9. So please be careful in calculations of Moon's
longitude.
8: If two persons take the same Tables of Houses and same Ephemeris, even
then we have found the difference of about 2 min.
In calculations, some use logarithms, some use Shri R.E. Manu's 'Astrological
tables for all'. Thus for the same horary number, same date, same time, same
place, even then we have found differences in calculations of both cusp and
antar dasa and so while giving a final judgment both give different opinions.
Readers should take this also into consideration.
9: Due to all the reasons cited above, when readers go through anyone's article
or book, at that time he should prepare the chart himself. In my observation
in a few articles we have found correct Dasa and Bhukti dasa but Antar dasa
was found mostly wrong. Also if we calculate with a given time we have found
the wrong calculations of Moon's position. So I request the readers to verify
all the details while reading any article/book.
To make a mistake is very common and human too, so all readers will
understand my stressing this aspect, based on my personal experience.
Part I
Theory
Chapter 1
Constellation (Nakshatra)
The zodiac of 360° is divided into three equal parts. First 120° is Aries o• to
Cancer 30°, second !20° is Leo o• to Scorpio 30°, Third 120° is Sagittarius oo
to Pisces 30•.
The zodiac of 360• is divided into three equal parts. Each part contains 120°.
lt consists of nine equal sections. Each section contains 13 •. 20' or 800'. lt
begins from o• Aries. Each section is known as Nakshatra or Constellation or
Star. There are 27 Nakshatras or Constellations or Stars in the whole Zodiac.
According to Vimshottari Dasa System, each Nakshatra or Constellation or Star
is ruled in turn by the nine planets in the order of Ketu, Venus, Sun, Moon,
Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn and Mercury. This order is fixed and not
changeable.
Each planet rules three N akshatras or Constellations or Stars and the ruling
planet is called the Nakshatra Lord or Constellation Lord or Star Lord. ln short
we may use the term 'Star' instead of 'Star lord' etc throughout this book.
Each planet rules three N akshatras or Constellations or Stars. Below are the
tables of planets which rule each 13• 20' of each Sign.

Ashwini Ketu Aries oo·.oo· to 13°.20'

Purva Sadha Venus Sagittarius 13° .20' to 26° .40'
Uttra Sadha Sun Sagittarius 26° .40' to 30° .00'
Uttra Sadha Sun Capricorn 00°.00' to 10°.00'
Sharawan Moon Capricorn 10° .00' to 23° .20'
Ghanishtha Mars Capricorn 23°.20' to 30°.00'
Ghanishtha Mars Aquarius ooo .00' to 06° .40'
Satbhisha Rahu Aquarius 06° .40' to 20° .00'
Purvabhadrapada Jupiter Aquarius 20° .00' to 30°.00'
Purvabhadrapada Jupiter Pisces 00°.00' to 03°.20'
Uttarbhadrapada Saturn Pisces 03°.20' to 16°.40'
Revati Mercury Pisces 16° .40' to 30°. 00'
For example, in a chart Saturn is in Capricorn 27°.05' and Jupiter is in

Aquarius 4 o .35'. Both planets are between Capricorn 23°.20' to 30° .00' up to
Aquarius 00°.00' to 6°.40'. That means that both planets are in different signs,
but the same Nakshatra or Constellation or Star and Nakshatra Lord or
Constellation Lord or Star Lord is Mars. In other words, Saturn and Jupiter
are in Mars N akshatras or Constellations or Stars. From now we may use
the term 'Star' instead of Nakshatra Lord or Constellation Lord or Star Lord
throughout this book. Let us understand by second example, Sun is in Pisces
17° .20' in a chart. It is between 16°.40' To 30° in Pisces sign. So Sun is in
the Star of Mercury.

Chapter 2
Sub Constellation (Up-Nakshatra)
In Nakshatra system each Nakshatra or Constellation or Star is subdivided

into nine parts. This Subdivision is called 'Sub'. It is based on the following
formula:
" Dasa year of each planet * The total number of Vimshottari Dasa
years X Star area = The longitude or extent or area of the Sub for each
planet in any Star or Constellation or Nakshatra."
The planet ruling the longitude or extent or area of the 'sub' in any Nakshatra
or Constellation or Star is called the Sub N akshatra Lord or Sub Constellation
Lord or Sub Star Lord or Sub Lord. In short we may use the term "Sub"
instead of Sub Lord through out this book.
The above formula of deriving the "Sub" is illustrated as under.

Each Star has 13".20' area, and in each star, sub areas come always the
same as given in the above table. Each star has nine subs. 27 stars have
been sub-divided into 243 subs in total. But there are 6 subs repeated in
Taurus Rahu sub, Cancer Moon sub, Virgo Rahu sub, Scorpio Moon sub,
Capricorn Rahu sub and Pisces Moon sub. So totally we have 249 subs.
The following tables show the star and the sub of each cuspal sign of 12
houses and of each planet in this birth or horary map.

Explanation of Table A, B, C & D
The table A is meant for Aries, Leo and Sagittarius; the table B for Taurus,
Virgo and Capricorn; the table C for Gemini, Libra and Aquarius and the table
D for Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces.
In the beginning of each table the Star area of each planet in each sign is
given e.g. in the table A Ketu star area extends from oo to 13°.20' in Aries or
Leo or Sagittarius and in the tables B and C Mars star extends from 23°.20'
Taurus or Virgo or Capricorn to 6° .40' Gemini or Libra or Aquarius and so on
with other star areas.
Each table contains four main columns. The Column 1 contains Sign, Sign
Lord 8B Serial No., for example in table A, Sign Aries is written first; Sign lord
Mars is marked below Aries; Serial No.'s 1 to 22 are mentioned below Mars
and so on with the other Signs, Sign Lords & Serial No.'s.
The Column 2 shows the Star Lord, Column 3 the Sub Lord and the Column
4 contains the commencing position of each Sub Lord in the Star area of each
planet.
Example : ln the table A in the Star area Ketu in Aries or Leo or Sagittarius,
the Sub of Ketu begins from oo .00" and ends at 0° .46' .40". So the Sub of
Venus starts at 0°.46'.40", add 2°.13'.20"(Sub area of Venus) and you get the
starting position of Sun Sub at 3° .00' .00", add oo .40' .0" (Sub area of Sun),
then the Sub of Moon starts at 3° .40' .0" in Aries or Leo or Sagittarius. Repeat
this procedure and the commencing position for all Subs in each star in each
sign will be obtained.
249 Subs and their Serial Numbers

27 stars have been sub divided into 243 subs. Referring to the Tables A, B, C
and D, in six cases the same star and the same sub will be found in the
adjoining signs e.g. Sun Star Rahu Sub in Aries or Leo or Sagittarius 29°.13'.20"
to 30° (Table A) goes on up to Taurus or Virgo or Capricorn 1°.13'.20" (Table
B). Jupiter star Moon sub in Gemini or Libra or Aquarius 29°.26'.40" to 30°
(Table C) extends up to Cancer or Scorpio or Pisces oo .33' .20" (Table D). Take
these six subdivisions into account and you will get 249 subdivisions in total.
Thus the Zodiac is divided into 249 parts. Each part has been given a serial
number.
In Aries the serial no. starts from l and ends at 22; in Taurus from 23 to 41;
in Gemini from 42 to 62; in Cancer from 63 to 83 and in Leo from 84 to 105
and so on. Each serial no. mentions the sign, the sign lord, the star lord, the
sub lord and the commencing position of each sub. The sign lord remains
constant for the whole sign. These serial numbers are very useful in erecting
horary maps. This will be discussed later on.
From these tables you can say that each degree and minute of the Zodiac is
ruled by the sign lord, the star lord and the sub lord. In other words, each
degree and minute is jointly ruled, governed or operated by three planets, out
of which one becomes the sign lord, the other is the star lord and the third
is the sub lord.
For instance in the Table A the serial no. 6 shows that Aries 5°.33'.20" is
jointly ruled or governed or operated by Mars (as the sign lord); by Ketu (as
the star lord) and by Rahu (as the sub lord).
The serial no. 98 indicates that Leo 20°.6'.40" is jointly operated by Sun (as
22 PRASHNA JYOTISH
the sign lord), Venus (as the star Lord) and Jupiter (as the sub lord).
The serial no. 187 denotes that the Sagittarius 28° .26'40" is jointly governed
by Jupiter (as the sign lord), Sun (as the star lord) and Mars (as the sub
lord).
The serial nos. in the Tables B, C and D may be understood in the same way
as explained above.
Sub lord:
For example in the chart, Sun is in Aries 10°.49', thus in table A, under Aries,
under number 8 we found that sign lord Mars, Star lord Ketu and Sub lord
Saturn. In other word we can say Sun is in the star of Ketu and sub of
Saturn.
If Venus is in Pisces 10°.9', thus in table D, under Pisces, under number 240
we fund that sign lord Jupiter, Star lord Saturn and Sub lord Jupiter. In
other word we can say Venus is in the star of Saturn and sub of Jupiter.
We can find sub lord of any cusp or planet as given in the example.

Example Horary Maps
Erecting the Horary Map
(a) When a person consults you, ask him to give a number between I and
249. The number given is taken as the Asc. Then from the number find out
the sign, star and sub. Note the commencing position in degree, minute and
second of this number. You have to erect the map and calculate the other 11
cusps for the latitude of the place from where you judge the query. Work out
the positions of the planets for the time at which you start erecting the map
for judgment. The method of finding out the positions of the other 11 cusps
of the houses is explained in the example given here under.
(b) Even when question is asked from any corner of world, place of horary
must be the place where astrologer is erecting the chart. Take the longitude
and latitude of place of horary at the start of calculation.
Note down planetary position and put it in calculated horary chart, of which
day and time astrologer start work on horary calculations.
Example
Suppose you want to find out the pos1t10n of the cusps of the houses for the
number 45 out of 249 for the year 1980. Place of judgement is Ahmedbad 23°
N 02', no E 37'.
Now look at the Table C for Subs in Nakshatra System in the chapter 2. (Page

Take Gemini 04°.53'.20" as the Asc, according to the Nirayana system. We

have to calculate the other 11 cusps for the latitude of the place from where
we judge the query, from Raphael's Tables of Houses which is according to
the Sayana system. So proceed as under:
Asc. for the horary No. 45
Add Ayanamsa for 1980 and get the Sayana Asc.
(a) Gemini 04°.53'.20" + Ayanamsa 23° .29' .00" = Gemini 28°.22'.20"

Refer to Raphael's Tables of Houses and open the page of Lat. 23° N 33' for
Ahmedabad 23° N 2', the place of judgment.
(b) Asc. Gemini 28° .22' .20" falls between the Asc. degrees.
Gemini 27° .40' .00"
Gemini 28° .35' .00"
(c) Write down the cusps given in the row of Gemini 28°.35' and 27°.40'.
Subtract the lesser from the greater and reduce the difference to minutes.

These are the Sayan a cusps for the horary number 45.
Prepare cusps of 12 houses for every number between 1 and 249 in this
manner. These cusps will be the Say ana cusps for the houses 10, 11, 12, 2
and 3. So far as the Asc. is concerned, keep the commencing position of the
Sub according to the Nirayana system as it is e.g. for the number 45, keep
Gemini 04°.53'.20" as it is.
The Sayana cusps (for the houses 10, 11, 12, 2 and 3) for all 249 numbers
will remain constant for any year. For getting the Nirayana cusps you have to
deduct the Ayanamsa for the required year. So it is desirable to keep a ready
reckoner for the place of your permanent stay. This will save much of your
time.

map of the Cusps is ready.
You have to work out only the positions of the planets for the time of judging
the query and to insert them in the map. Then the horary map is ready for
judgment.
Second method for easy horary calculation :

1) Asc. for the horary No. 45 is Gemini 04 •. 53'.20". Add Ayanamsa for 1980
and get the Sayana Asc. Such as,
Gemini 04°.53'.20" + Ayanamsa 23° .29' .00" = Gemini 28°.22'.20"
Refer to Raphael's Tables of Houses and open the page of Lat. 22°N 33'. For
Ahmedabad 23° N 02', which is place ofjudgment. Find nearest degree to Asc.

is for Gemini Lagna. As

Lagna beginning point. In an
Ra 21:13

Ke 21:13
11124:17 31 is second Cusp; 02
indicates Gemini; 28 is degree
and 31 is minute. In this way
all the 12 cusps have been
written in the above chart.
Ve 02:45
Me 15:57
B) If planet's longitude is less
than the cuspal degree, we
have to place that planet behind the cusp; in this horary chart the 5th cuspal
degree is 27° Vi 17' and Saturn is in 13• Vi 24', so we need to write Saturn
behind this cuspal degree. Rahu is in Cancer 21 •. 13' and the third cuspal
PRASHNA JYOTISH 27
degree is Cancer 24°. 17', so we
have to mention Rahu behind third
cuspal degree, and it is said that
Rahu is in the 2nd house, not in
3rd house.
C) If any planet is located within

5 degrees of the cuspal degree of
a house, then that planet excerts
its influence on both the houses.
For example the 3rd Cusp is Cancer
24°.17' and Rahu is in Cancer
2 1 o. 13'. The deference between
positions of Rahu and 3rd Cusp is
approx 3 degress. So in this
situation Rahu gives the results of
both the 2nd and the 3rd houses.
Like this Ketu in 8th cusp and near
to 9tl so Ketu gives the results of both the 8th and the 9th houses.
D) If a planet's longitude is more than the cuspal degree, we have to place

that planet after the cusp; in this horary chart the 6th cuspal degree is
7°.02'.17" and Sun is in 7°.05'.21", so we need to write Sun after this cuspal
degree. We can say that Sun is in the 6th house.
E) In this chart it is not fixed for every house to have 30 degrees. Sometimes
it will be less than 30 degre"s and at times it will be more than 30 degrees.
In this norary example 7th house commences from Sagittarius 4°.53'.20" and
extends up to Sagittarius 28o .31 '. So the 7th house is of 23° .37' .40" dimension,
not exact 30 degrees. If we check 12th house, it begins from Taurus 2°.17' and
ends at Gemini 4° .53' .20", and its dimension is 32°.36'.20". This shows us
that it is not fixed for each and every bhava to have 30 degrees of equal
dimensions. Also the 5th house commences from Virgo 27°. 17' and extends up
to Scorpio 2°. 17', and Libra comes within this 5th house, and we can say that
Libra is Galit or 'intercepted' sign.
F) Sign lord of the beginning position of house is called as house (bhava) lord
or bhavesh. In our example horary chart, 7th cusp begins from Sagittarius
4°.53'.20', 8th cusp from Sagittarius 28°.31' and lith cusp from Pisces 27°. 17'.
So we can say that 7, 8 and 11th house lord or bhavesh is Jupiter. In this
way 9th cusp is in Capricorn 24°.17' and 10th cusp in Aquarius 23°.17', so we
can say that lord of 9th and 10th houses is Saturn. 4th cusp is in Leo 24°. 17',
so we can say that 4th lord or bhvesh is Sun.
G) Planet is in Bhava or Cusp call as occupant. In our example horary chart,

Jupiter and Saturn is in 4th So we can say that Jupiter and Saturn occupant
of 4th. Mercury and Venus is in 5th So we can say that Mercury and Venus
occupant of 5th. Like this Mars in 7th so we can say Mars is occupant of 7th.

Chapter 5
Bhava Nirdeshak (House Significators)
Generally planet give result of its occupation in bhava, owner of bhava, and
aspect on bhava, Karaka of related bhava are considered as signification of
planet.
In the horoscope the sign is on the cusp of each house. A planet always
occupies the sign and its strength is determined according as it occupies its
own sign, exalted sign or debilitated sign. So the occupant in a sign is stronger
than the owner of the sign.
The sign is the !/12th part of the Zodiac, while the Constellation or Star is the
l/27'h part of the Zodiac. So the Constellation or Star is stronger than the
sign.
Hence the planet in the star is stronger than its Star lord (which may be
either the occupant or the owner of the sign).
The occupant (planet) in a sign mostly gives the results of the house occupied
by it. So the planet in the star better gives the results of the house occupied
by its star lord.
Keeping these principles in mind, the order of strength of the significators of
each house should be determined as under:
Selection of significator:
1) A planet in the star of the occupant of a house is stronger than the occupant.
So it should be given first preference as a significator of that house, because
it is strongest to give the results of the house occupied by its Star lord. The
occupant remains as a weak significator of that house.
2) If there is no planet in the occupant's Star, the occupant becomes the strong
significator of that house and it is strong to give the results of that house. So
the second preference should be given to the occupant of that house.
3) If the house is vacant, the planet in the star of the owner of a house is
stronger than the owner. So it becomes a strong significator of that house and
it is strong to give the results of that house. Hence the third preference should
be given to the planet in the owner's star and the owner remains a weak
significator of that house.
4) If the house is vacant and if there is no planet in the owner's star, the
owner itself becomes the strong significator of that house and it is strong to
give the results of that house. So the 4th preference should be given to the
owner of that house.
5) (a) A planet in conj. or associatiOn with, or aspected by a significator gives

the results of the house or houses denoted by that significator. So the last
preference should be given to the planet in conj. or aspect with that significator.
(b) A planet's star lord aspecting the house may be considered as the significator
of that house. For example planet A is in the star of B, and B aspects 11,
thus planet A is significator of 11.

1"' House: No planet is occupant of the l st house. So the first two (A & B)
columns are empty (mentioned as -). Rahu is in the star of Merury, owner
of 1st house. So Rahu is mentioned in 3rd (C) column and Rahu is a strong
significator of Asc. or first house.
2nd House: Rahu is an occupant of the 2nd house. Mercury is in the star of
Rahu. So Mercury is shown in first (A) column and Mercury is a strong
significtor of second house.
30 PRASHNA JYOTISH
3rd House: No occupant planet is in the 3rd house. So the first two (A & B)
columns are empty (mentioned as - ). Jupiter, Saturn and Ketu are in the
star of Moon, owner of 3rd house. So Jupiter, Saturn and Ketu are mentioned
in 3rd (C) column as strong significators of 3rd house.
4th House: Jupiter and Saturn are occupants of the 4th house. No planet is in
the star of Jupiter. Sun is in the star of Saturn. So Sun is in first (A) column.
Jupiter has no planet in it's stars. So Jupiter and Sun are the strong
significators of fourth house.
5th House: Venus and Mercury are occupants of the 5th house. Moon is in the
star of Venus, and Rahu is in the star of Mercury. So Rahu and Moon are in
the first (A) column and Rahu and Moon are the strong significators of fifth
house.
6th House: Sun is an occupant of the 6th house. So Sun is in the second (B)
column. No planet is in the stars of Sun. So Sun is the strong significator of
sixth house.
7th House: Mars is an occupant of the 7th house. Venus is in the star of Mar.
So Venus is in the first (A) column and it is the strong significator of seventh
house.
8th House: Ketu is occupant of the 8th house. Mar is in the star of Ketu. So
Mars is in the first (A) column and Mars is th strong significator of eight
house.
9th House: No planet is occupant of the 9th house. So the first two (A & B)
columns are empty (mentioned as - ). House lord is Saturn and Sun is in the
star of Saturn. So Sun is mentioned in the 3rd (C) column and Sun is the
strong significator of ninth house.
10th House: No planet is occupant of the lOth house. So the first two (A & B)
columns are empty (mentioned as - ). House lord is Saturn and Sun is in the
star of Saturn. So Sun is mentioned in the 3rd (C) column and Sun is the
strong significator of tenth house.
11th House: Moon is an occupant of the 11th house. Jup-Sat-Ketu are in the
star of Moon. So Jup-Sat-Ketu are in the first (A) column and Jup-Sat-Ketu
are the strong significators of eleventh house.
12th House: No planet is occupant of the 12th house. So the first two (A & B)
columns are empty (mentioned as - ). House lord is Venus and Moon is in
the star of Venus . So Moon is mentioned in the 3rd (C) column and Moon is
the strong significator of twelfth house.

Rahu-Ketu
1. Rahu-Ketu as agent
Rahu or Ketu is not allotted the ownership of any sign. It only occupies the
sign in a house. So Rahu or Ketu works as an agent or representative of the
planet with whom it is in conj. or aspect; the owner of the sign in which it is
placed; and also star lord of Rahu-Ketu. So when Rahu or Ketu becomes agent
of any planet we have to consider Rahu or Ketu in place of that planet because
Rahu or Ketu is more powerful than any other planet.
2. Rahu & Ketu and their significance

Rahu or Ketu works as an agent or representative of the significators with
whom it is in conj. or aspect; or the owner of the sign of significators in
which it is placed, and gives the results of significators as per given order.
Example Horary chart No. 1: (Page No: 27)

Rahu is aspected by Mars which owns 6 and occupies 7. So it will indicate
the matters of the houses 6, 7 as an agent of Mars. Ketu is in Capricorn sign,
so Ketu give the results of Saturn, i.e. 9, 10 as house lord and 4 as occupant.
Ketu is aspected by Jupiter, which owns 7, 8, 11 and occupies 4. So it will
indicate the matters of the houses 7, 8, 11, 4 as an agent of Jupiter.

Chapter 7
General Strength of a Planet
Strength by Occupant
A planet mostly gives the results of the house occupied by it and its owner
comes next in order. Of the houses the angles stand first in strength, next
the succeedents and then the cadents. The owner of the house 6, 8 or 12 (as
counted from any particular house to be judged) becomes weak, evil or malefic
in effects.
Strength by sign:
The nature of the sign (e.g. cardinal or movable, fixed, or common or mutable;
fiery, earthy, airy or watery; fruitful or barren; human or bestial; mute or
voice; masculine or feminine etc) on the cusp and that occupied by a planet
influences the affairs of the house and the planet.
Strength by aspect
A planet in conj. or association with, or aspected by a malefic (i.e. the owner
of 6, 8 or 12) becomes weak or afflicted. An aspecting planet modifies the
results of the house matters according as it is a natural benefic or malefic,
friendly or inimical. In this star system we have to consider only Vedic aspect
(i.e. Rasi to Rasi).
In stellar system
Planet in the star of strong planet by owner or occupant or sign or aspect it
will gives result of its star lord. If planet is in the star of weak planet, planet
gives weak result of its star lord.

A planet or house 'Connected With'
1. A planet connected with another planet
(a). Suppose Mercury occupies Aries or Scorpio; or
(b) it is in the star or sub of Mars; or
(c) it is in conj. with or aspected by Mars, then it may be said that Mercury
is connected with Mars.
2. A planet connected with any house

(a) Suppose Mercury is the owner or Star lord or Sub lord of the 6th cusp; or
(b) it occupies the 6th house; or
(c) it aspects the 6th house; or
(d) it is in the star or sub of the occupant of the 6th house; or
(e) it is in the star or sub of the owner of the 6th house; or
(J) it is in conj. with or aspected by the owner of the 6th house, then it may
be said that Mercury is connected with the 6th house.
3. A house or its owner connected with the house 6, 8 or 12

(a) Suppose the owner of 6, 8 or 12 occupies or aspects the 1st house, then it
may be said that the 1st house is connected with the house 6, 8 or 12.
(b) I. Suppose the owner of the 1st house (Lagnesh) occupies the house 6, 8
or 12; or
2. it is in the star of the owner of the house 6, 8 or 12; or
3. it is in conj. with or aspected by the owner of the house 6, 8 or 12, then
it may be said that the owner of the 1st house (Lagnesh) is connected with
the house 6, 8 or 12.
1. Difference between signification by star and sub.

Planet gives result of star and sub indicating house. The difference between
the two can be explained thus:
Suppose in Capricorn Lagna, Sun is owner of 8 and occupant of 6. Sun is in
the star of Jupiter. Jupiter is owner of 3, 12 and occupant of lOth. Sun is in
the sub of Saturn. Saturn is owner of 1, 2 and occupant of 4th.
We mention above Sun as: Sun is significator of 10, 3, 12 and connected with
8, 6, 1, 2, 4.

Chapter 10
Significator and its Sub Lord
l. The significator shows the source of an event. The matters especially of the
house occupied and owned by it serve as the source.
2. The significator gives the results of its star lord. So the star lord becomes
the indicator of the matters of the house occupied and owned by it and also
of the house aspected by it.
3. The sub lord of the significator is the deciding factor regarding the matters
of the star lord.
If the sub lord is harmonious to the matters indicated by the star lord, the
significator gives favourable results.
If the sub lord is detrimental to the matters indicated by the star lord, the
significator gives unfavourable results.
4. The significator gives during its period (Dasa), sub period (Bhukti) or inter
(Antra) period the results of its star lord. Or, the results of the star lord are
experienced during the joint period (i.e. during the period (Dasa), sub period
(Bhukti) and inter period (Antra)) of the significator, its star lord and its sub
lord.
For example if we are looking for marriage, we have to take significators of 2,
7, 11 houses (planets in the star of occupant or owners of 2, 7, 11). If the
sub lord of the above mentioned signficators is connected with 2, 7, II
houses, then only these significators give marriage during the joint period of
Dasa, Bhukti, Antra of relevant significators. But if this sub lord signifies only
l, 6, 10 (12th from 2, 7, ll - No marriage), then these significators never
give marriage during the joint period of Dasa, Bhukti, Antra. Check "houses
for subject matters" in the previous Chapter-9 given in the table.
5. In short, the significator denotes the time when it will give the results of
its star lord. The sub lord of the significator shows whether these results will
be favourable or unfavourable.
6. Any relevant planet, become an owner of 6, 8, 12 from relevant cusp, or

occupant of 6, 8, 12 cusp from relevant cusp, then this planet not gives result
during joint period of Dasa, Bhukti, Antra of relevant significators. But consider
this condition after thinking all the aspect of chart.
7. If the star lord of a signficator is not powerful, then the significator becomes
weak, and if its sub lord also weak, then this significator becomes weaker.

Chapter 11
Cuspal Sub Lord and its Subject Matter
Significance of the cuspal sub lord
We have seen in Chapter- 9 "Houses for Subject Matters" to judge an event.
We have to check more than one houses. To judge that event we need to
consider the sub lord of main house (bhava). For example, for longevity 1st, for
disease 6th, for education 4th, for marriage 7th house etc.
The cuspal sub lord of a house indicates whether the matter governed by that
house is promised or denied. If the cuspal sub lord of that house is the
significator of that house or any one of the houses under consideration, the
matter governed by that house will be promised.
As each house denotes several particular matters, the chief governor of the
matter to be judged, For example, Saturn for Longevity, Mercury and Jupiter
for Education, Mars for house, Saturn for land, Venus for marriage, Moon and
Mercury for traveling, Sun for business and authority etc, may be taken into
consideration. If it is connected with the house or any one of the houses under
consideration, especially with the star lord of the cuspal sub lord, it is desirable.
In short whether the matter governed by that house is promised or denied will
be decided by relevant cusp sub lord. Significators of relevant cusp decided
when native get the result.

Chapter 13
Sub Lord - Some Points to Consider
Sometimes it happens that the cuspal sub lord of the main house under
consideration is not deposited in the star of occupant or of the owner of relevant
house or houses. Sometimes Rahu and Ketu are not deposited in relevant house
or houses. But the cuspal sub lord, its star lord and its sub lord; also Rahu
or Ketu are connected with relevant house(s). In such cases one needs to use
common sense before coming to any conclusion.
Transit
At the time of event Sun, Moon or/and joint period rulers are generally found
to be transiting in the star or sub of the same joint period ruler or rulers (i.e.
in the star or sub of the period, sub period, inter period or/and sookshma
period ruler.)
Moon
I) Moon is the mind. So in the horary map the mind of the querent is
shown by the position of Moon and it helps in knowing the nature of
the question asked.
2) Generally Moon or its Star Lord or its Sub lord occupies or owns the
house under query; or
3) Moon is connected with, or by aspect, from the owner or occupant of
that house or from the chief governor (karaka) of the matter asked.
4) If lord of 6, 8, 12 is connected with Moon, then mind of querent is not
clear about question, and if Saturn is connected with Moon, querent is
hiding something.
Cuspal Sub lord

I) The cuspal sub lord of a house under query indicates whether the matter
signified by that house is promised or not.
2) The matter is promised if the cuspal sub lord is the significator (i.e. in
the star of the occupant or the owner) of that house or any one of the
houses under consideration.
3) In horary the matter is promised if the cuspal sub lord or its sub star
lord is direct, if the cuspal sub lord or its sub star lord is retrograde
but the cuspal sub lord becomes a strong significator, the matter is
promised when they get direct in motion.
4) As each house denotes several particular matters, the chief governor of
the matter under query may be taken into account and it should be
connected with the star lord of the cuspal sub lord of the house under
query.
Lagna and 11th Cuspal sub lord

1) In the horary map the Asc. indicates the efforts of the querent; while
the 11th cusp shows the fulfillment of desires or success in general. So
if the cuspal sub lord of the Asc. or the 11th cusp be the significator of
the matter asked, the querent gets success in general.
40 PRASHNA JYOTISH
2) If the cuspal sub lord of the Asc. or the I I'h cusp be the occupant of
the house I, 2, 3, 6, 10 or 11; or if it is in the star of the occupant
of the house I, 2, 3, 6, 10 or II, the querent gets success, in all
undertakings.
[The Asc. (denotes success in one's efforts); 2nd (monetary gain); 3rd (help
from others); 6th (being 12 to 7 loss to the other and gain to the querent);
lOth (reputation) and 11"' (stands for profit). So these houses are beneficial
to the querent in general.]
Ruling Planet:
I) Note the time and day when a question is put to you or when you take
the horoscope for analysis and judgment.
The day begins from Sunrise. Sun governs Sunday, Moon governs
Monday, Mars governs Tuesday, Mercury governs Wednesday, Jupiter
governs Thursday, Venus governs Friday and Saturn governs Saturday.
2) A) The sign lord of the Asc, the star lord of the Asc, at the time of
query or judgment.
B) The sign lord of Moon, the star lord of Moon at the time of query
or judgment.
C) The day lord
These five planets are called the 'Ruling Planets'.
3) A) If Rahu or Ketu is in conj. or aspect with the ruling planet; or
B) If it occupies the sign owned by the ruling planet. Rahu or Ketu
should be included as the ruling planet.
4) A) Among the ruling planets the Asc's star lord; the Asc's sign lord,
Moon's star lord, Moon's sign lord and the day lord are in order of
preference.
B) The ruling planet which is in the star or sub of a retrograde
planet should be omitted.

agrees.
Find out the common planet from significator and RPs.
Among these common planets those planets that are significator of Joint cuspal

It is observe that retro planet gives result when it get direct or planet when

Analysis of retrograde planet depends on individual case and type of Question.
In each case astrologer has to use his own commonsense.

Sub-Sub
Sub sub in each Sub
Each 'sub' is further divided into nine parts. This sub division is termed as
'sub sub'. It is based on the following formula :-
"Each sub area x Dasa years of each planet - the total number of Vimshottari
dasa years = The longitude or extent or area of 'Sub sub 'for each planet in
each 'Sub'."
Example:
The above formula of deriving 'Sub sub' in each 'Sub' is illustrated as under
1. The sub area of Ketu is 0° 46' 40 11 •

In sub Ketu, Area ofsub sub Venus = 00°.46'.40" X 20 + 120 = 00°.07'.47"

In sub Sun, Area ofsub sub Jup = 00°.40'.00" x 16 + 120 = 00°.05'.20"
4. The sub area of Moon is 1° 06' 40 11 •
In sub Moon, Area ofsub sub Ketu = 01°.06'.40" X 7- 120 = 00°.03'.54"
5. The sub area of Mars is 0° 46' 40 11 •
In sub Mars, Area ofsub sub Moon = 00°.46'.40" X 10 +120 = 00°.03'.54"
6. The sub area of Rahu is r 00' 00 11 •
In sub Rahu, Area ofsub sub Saturn= 02°.00'.00" x 19 +120 = 00°.19'.00"
7. The sub area of Jupiter is 1° 46' 40 11 •
In sub Jupiter, Area of sub sub Sun = 0 I o .46' .40" x 6 + 120 = 00° .05' .20"
8. The sub area of Saturn is r 06' 40 11 •
In sub Sun, Area of sub sub Rahu = 02° .06' .40" x 18 +120 = OOM9' .00"
9. The sub area of Mercury is 1° 53' 20 11 •

Explanation
Suppose a planet say, Moon occupies in the area between oo degree and 13°.20'
Aries or Leo or Sagittarius, it may be said that Moon is in the star of Ketu.
If Moon occupies any degree in the area between 00° .46' .40" to 3° Aries or Leo
or Sagittarius, it may be said that Moon is in the star of Ketu and in the sub
of Venus. (see Table 1.2 of Stars, Subs and Sub subs) (Please refer page no.
45.)
If Moon occupies 02°.50'.00" Aries or Leo or Sagittarius it may be said that
Moon is in the star of Ketu, in the sub of Venus and in the sub sub of Mercury.
(see Table 12 of Stars, Subs and Sub subs) (Please refer page no. 45.)
The above 'Tables of Stars, Subs and Sub subs' showing the star lords, the
sub lords and the sub sub lords should be understood as explained above.
Importance of Sub subs

1) This Sub sub is very useful in finding out the day or hour or minute of an
event.
2) Saturn takes about 13 months to move from one star to the other. It remains
in one 'Sub' for about weeks. So the exact day can be noted with the help of
'Sub sub'.
Example:
From 19-9-1978 to 4-10-1979 Saturn traveled in Leo 13°.20' to Leo 26°.40'. It
may be said that Saturn was in the star of Venus.
From 19-9-1978 to 8-10-1978 Saturn traveled in Leo 13°.20' to Leo 15°.33'.20".
It may be said that Saturn was in the star of Venus and sub of Venus. It
means that Saturn travel in Venus sub for three week.
From 19-9-1978 to 21-9-1978 Saturn traveled in Leo 13°.20' to Leo 13°.42'. It
may be said that Saturn was in the sub sub of Venus.
From 21-9-1978 to 23-9-1978 Saturn traveled in Leo 13°.42'.12" to Leo 13°.48'.
It may be said that Saturn was in the sub sub of Sun.
From 23-9-1978 to 24-9-1978 Saturn was in sub sub of Moon.
From 24-9-1978 to 25-9-1978 Saturn was in sub sub of Mars.
From 25-9-1978 to 27-9-1978 Saturn was in sub sub of Rahu.
From 27-9-1978 to 01-10-1978 Saturn was in sub sub of Jupiter.
From 01-10-1978 to 04-10-1978 Saturn was in sub sub of Saturn.
From 04-10-1978 to 07-10-1978 Saturn was in sub sub of Mercury.
From 07-10-1978 to 08-10-1978 Saturn was in sub sub of Ketu.
In this way we can fix time of event up to day with the help of sub sub.
2) Moon takes about 24 hours to move from one star to the other. It remains
in one 'Sub' for about three hours. So the exact hour or minute can be noted
with the help of 'Sub sub'.
Example:
On 17-5-1981 05.30 AM Moon was traveling in Libra 10°.38' and on 18-5-
1981 5.30 AM Moon was traveling in Libra 22°.31'. It means that on 17-5-
1981 Moon was in Rahu star.
On that day Moon's daily motion was 11°.53'. So on 18-5-1981 at 1.30 AM
Moon remained in Rahu star.
54 PRASHNA JYOTISH
On 17-5-1981 05.30 AM Moon was traveling in Libra 10°.38'. lt may be said
that Moon was in the star of Rahu and sub of Saturn. Saturn's strb ·weruds'
02° .06' .40". Libra 10° .26' .40" to 12° .33' .20" is Saturn's sub area. So on 17-5-

ln this way we can find out the day or hour or minute of an event.
3) Ascendant takes about two hours to move from one sign to the other. It
remains in one star for about 52 minutes. lt remains in one sub for about 5
to 8 minutes. So the exact minute can be noted with the help of the Sub sub.
Details explanation is given in next chapter Mystery of Ruling Planets under
Birth time rectification.
4) When two planets are in the same sign and/or have the same star lord
and the same sub lord, it happens that the period and sub period of one
proves fortunate, while that of the other planet is not fortunate. ln such cases
the 'Sub sub' of these two planets will help us in knowing which of the two
planets will be fortunate.

Chapter 15
Mystery of Ruling Planets
1. Ruling Planets (RP) & Rectification of Birth time
1) We can find out whether time of birth is correct by help of Ruling planet
(RP).
Note down the ruling planet at the time of judgment.
Omit the RP which are in retrograde star or sub.
Generally birth ascendant's Rasi lord, Star Lord, Sub lord and Sub Sub
lord will be tally with RP or RP of birth time will be tally with RP of time
of judgment.
2) When a native has two birth times use the following method to find out
his correct birth time. ,
a) Note down the ruling planet at the time of judgment.
b) Omit the RPs which are in retrograde star or sub.
c) Note the sign lord, star lord, sub lord and sub sub lord of the Asc for
both the birth times.
d) Tally both the birth times with ruling planets.
e) That time, for which the sign lord, star lord, sub lord and sub sub
lord of the Asc tally with the ruling planets, is considered the correct
time. Drop other one.
3) In cases where the approximate interval of birth time viz. 2 AM to 3 AM
10 AM to 12 noon; 7 PM to 8 PM and so on is given, proceed as under;
a) Note the ruling planets at the time of judgment.
b) According to the date of birth, you should fix the probable sign of the Asc
in which birth could have taken place. Generally the sign owned by any
one of the ruling planets will be rising in the Asc; or the sign occupied by
Rahu or Ketu if it is a ruling planet, will be rising in the Asc.
c) Then select the star lord and sub lord etc., suitable to this sign
from the ruling planets. Bear in mind the order of preference among the
ruling planets, also the importance of Rahu or Ketu.
d) Find out the sensitive degree of this sign on which the sign lord,
star lord, sub lord and sub sub lord operate jointly. This degree will show
the exact position of the Ascendant at the birth. The time when this
degree rises in the Asc. should be considered as the correct time of birth.
4) When the time was recorded correctly, or corrected as per above method,
in that case the following situation holds.
When you try to check again you find that the sign lord, star lord, sub
lord and sub sub lord of the Asc tally with the ruling planets or the sign
lord, star lord, sub lord and sub sub lord of the Asc found in the star or
sub of ruling planets. Or The sign lord, star lord, sub lord and sub sub
lord of the Asc is conjoined or aspected by the ruling planets.
Secondly we find that the ruling planets at the birth tally with the ruling
planets or ruling planet at the birth found in the star or sub of ruling
planets. Or ruling planets at the birth is conjoint or aspected by ruling
planets.

Ruling planets at the time of judgment:

Day: Monday Moo '·
Asc: Virgo 08° .41' Mer Sun
Moon: Cancer 09°.58' Moo Sat
At this moment Rahu is in Aquarius. So it represents Saturn. Ketu was in
Leo. So it represents Sun. Hence the ruling planets are Sun, Moon, Mercury,
Saturn, Rahu and Ketu.
Asc. at the birth is Capricorn 12°.40', Asc sign lord is Saturn, star lord is
Moon, sub lord is Rahu and sub sub lord is Saturn.
The ruling planets at the birth tally with the ruling planets at the time of
judgment. For example in birth chart day lord Sun, in ruling planet Sun is
star of Asc. in birth chart Moon is Asc star lord and, in ruling planet Moon is
Moon's sign lord. Asc sign lord is Saturn and in ruling planet Saturn is star
lord of Moon. ln birth chart Moon's sign lord is Jupiter (Rahu was in Pisces.
So it represents Jupiter), in birth chart Asc star lord Mer and in ruling planet
Asc sign lord is Mer. The joint rulers of the Asc at the birth also correspond
to the ruling planets at the time of judgment. So the birth time is correct.

PRASHNA JYOTISH 59
Ruling planets at the time of judgment:
Day: Wednesday Mer

Moon: Leo 7° Sun Ket
At this moment Ketu is in Leo. So it represents Sun. Hence the ruling
planets are Sun, Mar, Mercury and Ketu.
1; r,r birtl1 time 12-45 PM, Asc. was Leo 13°.00'. Asc sign lord was Sun, Star
lord Ketu and sub lord Me;-cury. All these three planets are in the ruling
planets at the time of judgment.
But for birth time 01-00 PM, Asc. was Leo 16°.26'. Asc sign lord was Sun,
Star lord Venus and sub lord Moon. Venus and Moon are not in the ruling
planets at the time of judgment. So the correct birth time is 12-45 PM

Example -4:
Male. Birth 23-11-1911, Thursday; 22° N 46', 73° E 40'.
It was said that the ascending sign at the time of birth is Gemini and the
approximate time is between 7-30 PM IST to 8-30 PM 1ST
Time ofjudgment. 31-l-1970, Saturday; 4-15 PM IST; 23o N 02', no E 35'.
Ruling planets at the time of judgment
Day: Saturday Sat
Asc: Gemini 19°.17' Mer Rah
Moon: Libra 28°.07' Ven Jup
At this time Rahu is in Aquarius. So it represents Saturn. H~nce Rahu may
be preferred to Saturn. Thus the ruling planets are Mercury, Rahu, Jupiter
and Venus.
At the time of judgment the Asc is Gemini. So it is certain beyond doubt that
the ascending sign at the time of birth is Gemini. Now we have only to fix the
degrees and minutes in Gemini.
Out of the ruling planets Mercury has already become the "sign lord. So we
have now to select the star lord, sub lord and sub sub lord out of Rahu,
Jupiter and Venus.
In Gemini Mars, Rahu and Jupiter can become the star lords. Mars is not the
ruling planet. So it is to be rejected. Hence the selection is to be made out of
Rahu and Jupiter. Rahu or Ketu is to be considered stronger than any planet.
So take Rahu as the star lord.
In selection from RP we have to follow as per bellow;

Lagna star is first, then Lagna sign lord, then Moon star, then Moon sign lord
and lastly day lord.
Keeping above in mind, out of Jupiter and Venus we have to select the sub
lord. Jupiter is the star lord of Moon, while Venus is the sign lord of Moon.
So select Jupiter as the sub lord. Venus automatically becomes the ·sub sub
lord. '
Now find out the degree and minute in Gemini on which all these ruling planets
viz. Mercury, Rahu, Jupiter and Venus operate jointly.
Gemini 9°.32'.27" to 9°.50'. 14" is the area on which all the ruling planets operate
jointly viz. Mercury becomes the sign lord. Rahu the star lord, Jupiter the sub
lord and Venus the sub sub lord. (See table No; 6 Page 44)
On the date of birth, the time at which this degree of Gemini rises on the
Asc. should be taken as the correct time of birth.
On 23-ll-1911, Thursday; 22° N 46', 73°E 40' at 7-57 PM !ST. Gemini 9°.33'
rises on the Asc. So this time should be taken as correct time of birth.
Re-verification: On 13-7-1970, Monday; at 05-45 PM 1ST., 23o N 02', no E 35'
PRASHNA JYOTISH 61
there was a keen desire to re-verify the above time. Ruling planets at that
time were as under.
Day: Monday Moo

Moon: Libra lr.07' Ven Rah
Thus the ruling planets are Moon, Jupiter, Venus, Rahu and Ketu.
The star lord Rahu, the sub lord Jupiter and the sub sub lord Venus of the
Asc Gemini go .33' at the time of birth correspond to the rujing planets at the
time of re-verification. Hence 7-57 PM IST the time of birth which is fixed is
correct beyond doubt.
2. Elimination of Significators and R.!lling Planets at the Time of Judgment

If the birth horoscope or a horary map indicates more than three or four
significators regarding the matter to be judged, unimportant significators may
be eliminated with the aid of the ruling planets.
Note the ruling planets of the moment when you begin to analyse and judge
the horoscope.
The common planets between the significators (of the matter to be judged) and
the ruling planets may be considered as the final significators and the rest
may be eliminated.
3. Ruling Planets and Affinity

A) Note the Dasa, Bhukti, Antra and Sookshma of your marriage or child
birth or friendship with one's or partnership.
B) Note the birth ruling planets of your wife or friend or partner or child.
C) His/her birth ruling planets always match with your DBAS. Or ruling
planets must be in the star of DBAS lords or ruling planets must be in
the sub of DBAS lords or ruling planet must be in conjunct with or
aspected by DBAS lords.

3) Ruling Planets and Fulfillment of a Question
If any question about event may relate to a minor or major event, to happen
within shot time can be answer by RP.
When there is a strong desire, keenness, anxiousness, eagerness or urge from

within to know the result about any matter, then and then only you may
predict with the help of ruling planets alone; and you may prove correct.
The ruling planets which are in the star or sub of retrograde planets should
be avoided. A retrograde ruling planet shall give the results only when it
becomes direct in motion.
The sensitive degree of any Zodiacal sign in which all the ruling planets jointly
operate is important for fulfillment of any question.
The question is fulfilled at the time when all the ruling planets operate jointly.
In joint operation one of the ruling planets becomes the Sign lord, the other
one becomes the Star lord, the third one the Sub lord and the fourth one
becomes the Sub sub lord.
If an event is likely to happen within 24 hours take the transit of the Asc.
and count from the ascending degree of the moment of the query. It is advisable
to judge retrograde planet by astrologer's own experience.
If it is to happen within a month consider the transit of Moon and count from
the sign transited by Moon at the moment of the query.
If it is to happen after a month but within a year look to the transit of Sun

Generally ruling planets are five in number. The three ruling planets which
you come across earlier in joint operation should be considered first. From the
rest of the two that which is earlier in joint operation should be considered as
the Sub sub lord. Of course, no hard and fast rule can be given. The reader
may form his own rules according to his experience.
Example -1:
Question: When shall we stop discussing the subject?
Time of judgment: 28-8-1969, Thursday; 03-25 PM IST; 23o N 02', no E 35'
Ruling Planets
Day: Thursday Jup
Asc: Sagittarius 13 •. 20' Jup Yen
Moon: Aquarius 24.47' Sat Jup
At this moment Rahu is in Aquarius. So it represents Saturn. Thus the ruling
planets are Jupiter, Venus, Saturn and Rahu.
As the question is a minor one, it is a matter to be fulfilled within few minutes

or an hour. So take the transit of the Asc. and count from the ascending
degree of the moment i.e. Sagittarius 13 •. 20' and get the degree on which all
the ruling planets operate jointly.
In Sub table on page no; 12, table A, we found that at number 176 Sagittarius
13• .20' and it show Jupiter as sign lord, Venus as star lord and Venus as sub
lord.
New if we check next sub on number 177 is Sun which is not in RP, next is
178 Moon also not in RP, next on 179 is Mars also not min RP, next on 180
Sagittarius 18•. 06'.40" and it show Jupiter as sign lord, Venus as star lord
and Rahu as sub lord. this Rahu sub is up to 20•. 06'.40".
New for sub sub we have to check sub sub table which is on page 38; table
2.5. we have select Jupiter, Venus, and Rahu only Saturn is with us in RP.
So if we check sub sub as Saturn from 18°.40'.40" to 18°.59'.40" all four RP
jointly operate i.e Jupiter as sign lord, Venus as star lord, Rahu as sub lord
and Saturn as sub sub lord.
So at the time when Sagittarius 18°.40'.40" rises in the Asc, the discussion
will be stopped.
This degree was on the Asc. at about 3-50 PM IST and immediately a female
relative entered the house and we stopped the discussion.
Example -2:
Question: Two of my children have gone to the hospital in the early morning.

Ruling Planets
Day: Friday Ven
Moon: Taurus 170.47' Ven Moo
Thus the ruling planets are Mercury, Rahu, Venus and Moon.
As the question is a minor one, take the transit of the Asc. and count from
the ascending degree of the moment i.e. Gemini 11 °.04' and get the degree on
which all the ruling planets operate jointly.
ln Sub table on page no; 14, Table C, we found that at number 49 Gemini
10° .26' .40" to 12° .33' .20" and it show Mercury as sign lord, Rahu as star lord
and Saturn as sub lord.
Saturn is not in RP so we check next sub on number 50 is Mercury which is

already taken as sign lord, next is 51 Ketu also not in RP, next on 52 is
Gemini 15°.13'.20" to 1r .26' .40" and it show Mercury as sign lord, Rahu as
star lord and Venus as sub lord.
New for sub sub we have to check sub sub table which is on page 42; table
6.6. We have select Mercury, Rahu and Venus only Moon is with us in RP. So
if we check sub sub as Moon from 15°.42'.12" to 15°.53'.19" all four RP jointly
operate i.e Mercury as sign lord, Rahu as star lord, Venus as sub lord and
Moon as sub sub lord.
So at the time when Asc raises Gemini 15°.42'.12" both the children might
have returned home.
This degree was on the Asc. at about 11-30-8 AM 1ST. It was 11-32 AM 1ST
when both the children returned home.

Moon: Aries 19°.40' Mar Ven
At that moment Rahu is in Aquarius. So it represents Saturn. Hence prefer
Rahu to Saturn. Thus the ruling planets are Venus, Mars, Rahu and Moon.
As the matter is to happen within a week or so, take the transit of Moon and
count from the sign transited by Moon at the moment i.e. Aries 19°.40' and
get the degree on which all the ruling planets operate jointly.

Ruling Planets
Day: Thursday Jup
Moon: Taurus 09°. 31 I Ven Sun
At that moment Rahu is in Cancer. So it represents Moon. Ketu was in
Capricorn So it represents Saturn. Venus and Sun were conjoint with Ketu.
So Ketu is also represents Venus and Sun. Jupiter is aspects on Ketu, so
represents Jupiter too.
As the matter is to happen within 24 hours or so, take the transit of Asc. and
count from the sign transited by Asc. At the moment i.e. Cancer 03°.31', get
the. degree on which all the ruling planets operate jointly.
Cancer 15° .45' is the area on which all the ruling planets viz. Moon (as sign
lord), Saturn (as star lord), Jupiter (as sub lord) and Ketu (as sub sub lord)
operate jointly.
Asc Cancer 15°.45' was transiting this degree on 12-2-1981, Thursday at about

Moon: Capricorn 20°.56' Sat Moo
At that moment Rahu is in Cancer. So it represents Moon. Ketu was in
Capricorn, conjoint with Moon, Mercury and Ketu. So it represents Saturn,
Moon, and Mercury. Thus the ruling planets are Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus,
Saturn, Rahu and Ketu.
As the matter is to happen within 24 hours or so, take the transit of Asc. and
count from the sign transited by Asc. at the moment i.e. Taurus 04°.04'
and get the degree on which all the ruling planets operate jointly.
Up to Taurus 10° is the area on which Venus (as sign lord), Sun (as star
lord), operate jointly. Duration was about 20 minute. Our friends were going
too fare. So it is sure that there is no chance of coming back within 20 minutes.
Taurus 10° to Taurus 23°20' is the area on which Venus (as sign lord) and
Moon (as star lord), operate jointly. So the only chance of comeing back was
during this duration.
68 PRASHNA JYOTISH
We give more importance to Rahu and Ketu than other planets. So we select
Sub of Rahu Taurus 13°03'.20" to Taurus 13°·10'.20", the area on which all
the ruling planets viz. Venus (as sign lord), Moon (as star lord), Rahu (as sub
lord) and Ketu (as sub sub lord) operate jointly.

If birth time running planets of A tallies with significator of bhava 1, 5, 11 of

B. then during joint period of significator I, 5, 11, A and B will feel amicable
with each other.
If birth time running planets of A is tally with significator of bhava 6, 8, 12

of B. then during joint period of significator 6, 8, 12, A and B will not feel
happy with each other.

Moon: Virgo 05° .45' Mer Sun
Rahu is in the sign of Cancer, conjoined with Sun and aspected by Saturn.
Thus Rahu is represents Sun and Saturn. Ketu is in the sign of Capricorn
and aspected by Sun. Thus Ketu is represents Sun and Saturn. Hence the
ruling planets are Sun, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu. Among these
ruling planets Rahu and Saturn are joint dasa period of native.
ln friends ruling planets Rahu and Saturn is significator of 6 and 8 house of

native. During date 18-9-1973 to 22-2-1974 native run through Rah-Rahu-
Saturn, so during February 1974 there was misunderstanding and problem
with friend, but when native run Rah-Rahu-Mercury from 22-2-1974 during
this period become friend again, because Mercury is significator of 1st.

Hints
Rule 1: If the cuspal sub lord of the Asc. be the significator (in the star of
the occupant or owner) of the house 6 or 8 or 12 the life is short (about 33
years). If the cuspal sub lord of the Asc. be the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of the house 1 or 5 or 9 or 10 the life is long (about more
than 66 years). If the cuspal sub lord of the Asc. be the significator (in the
star of the occupant or owner) of the house 6 or 8 or 12 and 1 or 5 or 9 or
10, the life is medium (about 66 years). But if the cuspal sub lord of the Asc.
be the significator (in the star of the occupant or owner) of the Badhaka and
Maraka houses with the above mentioned houses, it is not good for the life.
If the cuspal joint rulers (the sign lord, star lord and sub lord) of the Asc. or
the 8th cusp be the significators (in the star of the occupant or owner) of the
Badhaka and Maraka houses, their joint period is very critical for life. In the
short life case within 33 years, in the medium life case within 66 years and
in the long life case above 66 years, also check the 3rd and 8th cusps too.
Badhaka bhava is more danger than Maraka bhava. So when we are checking
about longevity first check the Badhaka bhava and then Maraka bhava.
Rule 2: If the cuspal sub lord of the Asc. be the significator (in the star of
PRASHNA JYOTISH 73
the occupant or owner) of the
Badhaka and Maraka houses, the
life is short. If the cusp a! joint rulers
(the sign lord, star lord and sub
lord) of the Asc. or the 8th cusp be
the significators (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of the Badhaka
and Maraka houses, their joint
period is very critical for life.
Moon
In this horary map the mother asked
the question about her son. Moon
occupies the 12th (worries to the
querent). Consider the 5th cusp as
the Asc. for the son and proceed.
For convenience the chart is rotated
to the 5th and the number is given
to each house counted from the 5th
cusp. Moon is aspected by the owner of 8 (Sun) and the owner of 6 (Mercury).
It is in its own star owning 7 and occupying 8. It is in the sub Saturn owning
I the Asc. of the son and 2, and occupying 3. So Moon is the significator of
7 (Maraka), 8 (longevity) and connected with 1 (health), 2 (Maraka), 3 (longevity)
and 6 (sickness). Thus Moon clearly indicates that the querent is worried about
the health, sickness and longevity of her son.
Son's Asc (Capricorn 21°.24'):

It is jointly ruled by Saturn (sign lord), Moon (star lord) and Venus (sub lord).
The sub lord of the Asc. is
Venus. It is in the star
IV 19:24
Ma 18:31 Mercury owning 6 and
Sa 13:48
occupying 2. It is in the sub
Moon owning 7 and
occupying 8. So it is the
Vll21:24 Ra17:38 significator of the Maraka
121:24
house 2 and connected with
the Maraka house 7.
We may now examine the
X
strength of the star lord and
~
4
4 the sub lord of Venus.
Venus's star lord Mercury is
Ju!R ,
111 07
in conj. with the owner of 8
90
x 19:24 (Sun) and aspected by the
/~-------------+--------~~----------~~, owner of the maraka house
7 (Moon). Venus's sub lord
Moon is the significator of the maraka houses as discussed above. Thus both
the star lord and the sub lord of Venus are evil. Consequently, the cuspal sub
lord of the son's Asc. (Venus) becomes evil for the son's longevity and it denotes
short life.
74 PRASHNA JYOTISH
Son's Cusp 8th (Leo 22° .24):
lt is jointly operated by Sun (sign lord), Venus (star lord) and Saturn (sub
lord).
The cuspal sign lord of 8 Sun is in the star Saturn owning the son's Asc. and
2; So Sun is the significator of the Maraka houses 2. Sun's star lord Saturn
is in conj. with Mars the owner of the Badhaka house 11 and aspected by the
owner of 12 (Jupiter); so Saturn becomes evil. Sun's sub lord Venus is in
association with the owner of 6 (Mercury) and the owner of 8 (Sun); so Venus
becomes evil. Consequently, the cuspal sign lord of 8 Sun becomes connected
with the Badhaka and Maraka houses; and it becomes evil for the son's
longevity.
The cuspal star lord of 8 Venus is the significator of the Maraka houses 2
and 7 as previously discussed.
The cuspal sub lord of 8 Saturn is in the star and sub of Venus which is the
Maraka significator of 2; so Saturn is the Maraka significator.
Thus, the sign lord, star lord, and sub lord of 8 cusp all the three are the
singificators of the Badhaka and Maraka houses.
Joint period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Moon for 5 Y l M 19 D) the querent's
son is running the joint period of Moon (the star lord of the son's Asc), Saturn
(the sign lord of the son's Asc. and the sub lord of 8 cusp) and Venus (the
sub lord of the son's Asc. and the star lord of 8 cusp). This period expires on
ll-6-1970. They all are the significators of the Maraka houses as discussed
above. So they denote danger to the son's life.
Now the joint period of Moon, Saturn and Sun (the sign lord of 8 cusp) starts
from 11-6-1970 and lasts up to 9-7-1970. Moon and Saturn are the Maraka
significators; while Sun is both the Badhaka and Maraka significator as
previously discussed. So this period will prove fatal to the life of the querent's
son.
Transit
The querent's son expired on 18-6-1970 during this very joint period of Moon,
Saturn and Sun. Moon was transiting in Scorpio 12°.54' in the star Saturn
(the period ruler).

In this horary map a person asked the question about his Aunty (his mother's
elder sister). Mother is 4th and his mother's elder sister comes under 2nd from
Asc. (II'h from 4th). So consider the 11th cusp as the aunty's Asc. and proceed.
For convenience each house counted from the 11th cusp.
Moon occupies the 12th (worries to the querent) and is lord of 9th (Badhaka).
Moon is aspected by the owner of 2 (Jupiter). It is in Mercury star and sub
of Sun. Star lord Mercury owns 8 and is aspected by Mars owner of I, 6 and
Jupiter the owner of 2 (Markesh). Sub lord Sun also aspected by Mars the
owner of 1-6 and Jupiter owner of 2 (Markesh) and conjoined with Mercury
owner of 8. Thus Moon clearly indicates 1 (longevity), 6 (sickness) 8th (death/
longevity), 2-12(Maraka), and 9th (Badhaka) of his aunty.
Aunty's Asc (Scorpio 25°.12'):

The sub lord of the Asc. is Rahu. It is in the star Jupiter and sub lord of
Moon. Rahu is conjoint with Moon (Badhakesh) in 12th. Star lord Jupiter owns
2 (Marakesh). Sub lord Moon is owner of 9 (Badhakesh). Rahu and Moon are
aspected by Jupiter owning 2 (Marakesh). Thus 1st cusp sub lord Rahu is
76 PRASHNA JYOTISH
connected with 9 (Badhakesh), 2 (Marakesh) and 8. Consequently, the cuspal
sub lord of the Aunty's Asc. (Rahu) becomes evil for the aunty's longevity and
it denotes short life.
Cusp 8th (Gemini 25°.12):

The cuspal sign lord of 8 Mercury is in the star Moon and sub Venus. Mercury
owns 8th and its star lord Moon is owner 9 (Badhakesh) in 12 (Moksha). Its
sub lord Venus is the owner of 7(Maraka) and 12. Thus Mercury, the significtor
of Badhaka and connected with Maraka bhava becomes evil for the aunty's
longevity and it denotes short life.

At this moment Rahu was in Scorpio and aspected by Jupiter. So it represents

At the time of judgment

Sa 08:23
11128:12 period of Mercury-Sun-Mars
IX 28:12
(from date 29-9-1975 to 17-

(Kanak Bosmia: I have added
sub for ruling planets, by this
example I am wondering why
there is no control on our
dasa? If it is so, then why the
ruling planets do not tally with
PRASHNA JYOTISH 77
the DBAS? I try to get answer ofthis
puzzle. After one year I check all
examples with sub lord of RP and I
got answer of this puzzle, i.e. if we
consider sub of RP then there is no
question of control on dasa. Check
the above RP list sub in Italic. this
teach us that 7 RP use give us more
correct result)
Dasa lord Mercury and Antara
dasanath Sun are strong
sinificators of Badhaka. Mercury is
sub lord of 8'h and also in ruling
planets. So during Mercury-Sun
period becomes evil for the aunty's
longevity and it denotes short life.
Rahu is the sub lord of Asc. Also
Rahu is significtors of Badhaka,
Marak a and in ruling planets.
Rahu represents Mars. Mars is also in the significtors and ruling planets. So
we give more preference to Rahu. Thus Mercury-Sun-Rahu (from 17-10-1975
to 2-12-1975) period will prove fatal to the life ofthe querent's aunty.
Actually during dasa period of Mercury-Sun-Rahu-Jup (from date 23-10-1975

Hints:
Rule: 1
Health (1st)
If the sub lord of the Asc. be in the star of the occupant or owner of the
house 1 or 11, health is normal.
If the sub lord of the Asc. be the significator (in the star of the occupant or
owner) of the house 6 (sickness) or 8 (danger to life) or 12 (hospitalization), it
is not good for health.
The native may suffer from sickness or disease, during the joint period of the
significators of 1 and 6, or I and 8, or 1 and 12.
Rule: 2
Disease (6th)
If the sub lord of the 6th cusp be the significator (in the star of the occupant
or owner) of 6 or 8 or 12 and connected with 1, the native may suffer from
disease during the sub period of this cuspal sub lord of 6. If the sub lord of
the 6th cusp be connected with Saturn, disease becomes chronic; if with Mars
disease is acute, sudden and painful, and causes operations; if with Mercury
disease gets complicated; and if with Rahu or Ketu disease remains
undiagnosed. Rahu is similar to Saturn and Ketu is similar to Mars in effects.
82 PRASHNA JYOTISH
If the sub lord of the 8th or 12th cusp
be the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of 6 or 8 or 12,
then native suffers from the disease
and permanent defect, which related
to sign and house of 6th cusp sub
lord and its star lord.
Similarly, if the sub lord of the 8th
or 12th cusp be the significator (in
the star of the occupant or owner)
of 6 or 8 or 12, then native suffers
from serious illness or chro-nic
disease or the disease which might
bring some permanent defect, related
to sign and house of 6th cusp sub
lord and its star lord.
During the joint period of the
significators of 1, 5 or 11 disease is
cured.
Rule: 3

during the joint period of the
significators of 1, 5 and 11.
Astrologer needs to select from
sub lord of Asc, 6th or 8th or
11105:05 12'h as per his experience, it
v is advisable that first examine
all the cusp sub lords and then come to any conclusion.
Moon
ln this horary map Moon occupies the 6th and owning 12th (Hospitalization) lt
is in the star Mars owning the Badhaka house 9 and occupying 6; it is in the
sub Saturn owning 6(sickness, disease) and 7(Maraka). So Moon is the
significator of 6 (sickness, disease), 9 (danger to life) and connected with 6
and 7 (Maraka). Thus Moon indicates that the query refers to the serious
sickness or disease.
Cuspal Sub lord

6th cusp. (Capricorn 08°.05'}:
The sub lord of the 6th cusp is Venus. Venus is in the star of Ketu and sub
of Mars. Venus occupies the Badhaka house 9 star lord Ketu in 12, sub lord
Mars owning 9 (Badhaka) and occupying 6. So Venus is the significator of 12
and connected with 6 and 9. lt is not the significator of 5 or 11. Hence the
PRASHNA JYOTISH 83
cure of the disease is not promised.
11th cusp. (Gemini 08° .05):

The sub lord of the ll'h cusp is Rahu. Rahu is in the star of Mars and sub
of Own. Rahu occupies 6 (sickness, disease). Star lord Mars owning 9 (Badhaka)
and occupying 6 (sickness, disease). So Rahu is the significator of 6, 9 and
connected with 6. It is not the significator of 5 or 11. Hence the disease will
not be cured.
Disease
6th cusp. fCapricorn 08°.05'):
The cuspal sub lord of 6 is Venus. Venus occupies the movable sign Aries. Its
star lord Ketu also occupies the movable sign Cancer. The movable sign governs
head; stomach; kidney, skin and the functional system of the body. So these
parts of the body will be affected by the disease.
The cuspal sub lord of 6 (Venus) is in conjoined with Mercury; so the disease
will be of the complicated nature. It is aspected by Mars; so the disease will
be acute, inflammatory and painful.
Venus's star lord Ketu is aspected by Saturn; so the disease will be chronic in
its nature. It is also aspected by Mars; so there will be painful, acute, sudden
and inflammatory diseases.
In this case the querent girl was suffering from many diseases viz. kidney was
not functioning, the whole body was getting swelled and so on. Even the expert
Doctors could not diagnose the disease.
Longevity
Asc. (Leo 070.33'.20"):
The sub lord of the Asc. is Jupiter. It is retrograde. Jupiter is in the star of
Saturn and sub ofVenus. Jupiter owns the 8th. It is in the star Saturn owning
the Marak a house 7 and occupying the Badhaka house 9. It is in the sub
Venus in 9. So Jupiter is the significator of the Badhaka and Maraka house
and connected with the 8th and the Badhaka house 9. Hence the cuspal sub
lord of the Asc. denotes short life.
Now we may examine the strength of the star lord and the sub lord of Jupiter.
The star lord Saturn is aspected by Jupiter owner of the 8th; it is the
significator of the Badhaka house 9; so it becomes evil for longevity.
The sub lord Venus is aspected by Mars owner of the badhaka house 9; it is
the significator of the Maraka house 12; so it also becomes evil for longevity.
Both the star lord and the sub lord of Jupiter are evil, so it is natural that
the cuspal sub lord of the Asc. Jupiter becomes evil for longevity. Thus the
life of the querent is too short.

them both. Saturn being in the sub of retrograde Jupiter may be omitted.
Thus the ruling planets are Moon, Mars, Mercury, Rahu and Ketu.

The common planets between the ruling planets and the significators are Moon,
Mars, Mercury, Rahu and Ketu.
Out of them Mars is in the sub of the ruling planet Rahu; and Mercury is in
the star and sub of the ruling planets viz. Ketu and Rahu respectively. So
Mars and Mercury are to be given preference over other significators and they
should be considered as the final significators for death.
Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Mars for 3Y 6M 22D) the querent is
running the joint period of Mars (Badhaka), Saturn (Sashthesh (owner of 6th)-
Marakesh) and Jupiter (Asthmesh). also joint ruler of 8th cusp (Pisces 05°.05')
Jupiter-Saturn is joint ruler of runing dasa. Thus the life of the querent is too
short. joint period of Mars and Saturn which expires on 9-6-1971.
As discussed above the joint period of Mars, Mercury and Mercury (9-6-1971
to 29-7-1971) will prove fatal to the life of the querent when the transit agrees.
Transit
Sun will be transltmg in Taurus 24°. 11' to Gemini 06°.39' in the star Mars
(the period ruler) from 9-6-1971 to 22-6-1971 and Mars will transit in Capricorn
23° .20' and forward in its own star (Mars) from 11-6-1971, so the querent will
not survive this period.
Actually the querent girl died on 14-6-1971 Monday at 01-00 AM IST At that
time Sun was in Taurus 28°.47'; Moon in Capricorn 29°.23' and Mars in
Capricorn 24°. II', all these three were in the star Mars (the period ruler).
Mercury was in Taurus 19°.36' in its own sub Mercury (the sub and inter
period ruler).
It may be noted that in this horary map Pisces is on the cusp of the 8th; while
at the time of death the Asc. was also in Pisces 02°.28'.
At the time of judgment Moon was in Capricorn 29°.53' and at the time of
death also Moon was in Capricorn 29°.23'. At the time of judgment dasa was
Mars-Saturn, at the time of death Moon Capricorn 29°.23' so Dasa also Mars-
Saturn.

In this horary map Moon owning the 12th (worries), Moon Conjoined with Rahu
(unidentify situation). Moon is in the star of Saturn and sub of Venus. Star
lord Saturn occupying the 1st and owning 6 and Conjoined with 8th lord Jupiter
and Lagnesh Sun. It is in the sub Venus occupying 12th. Thus Moon indicates
1st (health), 6th (Disease), 8th (Longevity), and 12th (worries), that the query
refers to the question.
Cuspal Sub lord

Asc. (Leo 24°.00'):
The sub lord of the Asc. is Mercury. Mercury is in the star of Rahu and sub
of Jupiter. Mercury owning 11 (Cure in disease), Star lord Rahu occupying 11
(Cure in disease), sub lord Jupiter owning 5 (Relief in Disease) and occupying
1 (Health). So Mercury is the significator of 11 and connected with 1 and 5.
Hence the cure of the disease is promised.
Now discuss Sub lord its star lord and sub lord differently. Asc sub lord Mercury
conjoined with Badhkesh Mars but Mars occupying 3rd (Longevity). Star lord
Rahu is conjoined with Vayesh Moon. Sub lord Jupiter owning 8 and is
86 PRASHNA JYOTISH
conjoined with Markesh Saturn
owner of 6, . Hence it is clear that
danger to longevity is shown due
to disease.
8th cusp. (Pisces 22°.17'):

The sub lord of the 8th cusp is
Moon. Moon is in the star of
Saturn and sub of Venus. Moon
occupying 11 (Cure in disease).
Star lord Saturn occupies !st. Sub
lord Venua owner of 3, 10. So
Moon is the significator of II and

11th cusp. (Gemini 24° .54):

11th CSL is also Mercury and we have discussed above that cure of the disease
is promised but Mercury is in Jupiter sub, sub lord is suprimo. Jupiter owns
5-8. So disease is detected and cured after some time, again other disease is
detected and cured after next time, and this will continue till joint dasa lord
of significators of cure from disease.
Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Saturn for 11 Y !OM 16D) the querent
is running the joint period of Saturn-Venus and Rahu from 29-7-1980 to 20-
1-1981.
Saturn owning 6th, Sta rlord Sun occupies 1st also owning P', sub lord Venus
occupies 12th and owning 3rd. Dasanath is Sashthesh (owner of 6th) indicate
disease, but significator of !st. sublord venus not own evil houses so dasa lord
does not indicate danger to life. But star lord Sun Conjoined with Saturn 6th
PRASHNA JYOTISH 87
lord and Jupiter 8th lord so disease will continue.
Bhukti dasa lord is Venus. Venus owns 3-10. Venus is in the star of Ketu
and sub of Moon. Star lord Ketu occupies 5 and is very close to cusp of 6th,
and sub lord Moon owns 12th. Antra dasa lord Venus is connected with 6th ,
so health will not be good during this Bhukti.
Antra dasa lord Rahu occupies 11th and is very near to cusp 12th. Rahu is in
Cancer, so Rahu is agent of Moon. As we have discussed above about Moon,
heath is not well. Also Rahu is 6th CSL, so during this Antra health will give
more trouble. Rahu is in the sub of Mars, which is Badhakesh, so during
Saturn-Venus and Rahu from 29-7-1980 to 20-1-1981 health will not be good
and also feeling of danger to life occurs.
Saturn-Venus and Jupiter dasa period starts from 20-1-1981. Antar dasahanath
Jupiter is owns 5th, so cure of disease is sure during this Antar dasha. Jupiter
is in the star of Sun and sub of own. Both Star lord Sun and sub lord Jupiter
are in 1•t, so during Jupiter An tar native is cured from disease.
Actually since last week of January 1980 native is free from disease and health
is very good.
Joint dasanath signifies 1 and 5 and also Vidashnath Jupiter, star lord and
sub lord of Jupiter all three signifies 1,5.

Hints:
Eyesight
1. Sun, Moon and Venus denote vision while Mercury governs the nervous
system.
2. Consider the houses 2 (vision, right eye), 12 (left eye, defect), 6 (disease)
and 8 (danger).
3. 12th cusp: If the sub lord of the 12th cusp be the significator (i.e. in the
star of the occupant or owner) of 6, 8 or 12, then only during the joint
period of the significators of 2 and 12 the eye sight becomes defective.
4. If Sun, Moon or Venus be :
(a) the sub lord of the 12th cusp and
(b) the significator (in the star of the occupant or owner) of 2 or 12
there is a higher possibility of defective vision.
5. Eye sight may be lost during the periods of Sun, Moon or Venus, if
(a) Sun, Moon or Venus be the significator (in the star of the occupant or
owner)of 2 or 12, and
(b) its sub lord is connected with the house 12, and
(£} its sub lord is connected with Sun, Moon or Venus.'---------
PRASHNA JYOTISH 89
6. Eye sight may be lost during the periods of a planet A, if:
(a) its star lord be Sun, Moon or Venus, and
(b) its sub lord is connected with the house 12, and
(c) its sub lord is connected with Sun, Moon or Venus.
Moon
In this horary map Moon aspected by Sun (karka for Vision), 12th lord
(Hospitalization) Jupiter and 6th lord Mercury. Moon is in star of Jupiter 12th
lord, and sub of Mercury 6th lord. Thus Moon indicates that the query refers
to the eye vision.
Cuspal Sub lord

Asc. (Aries 28°.26.40 ")
Asc cuspal sub lord is Mars. Mars is in the star of own and sub of Sun.
cuspal sub/its star lord Mars owns
1st and 8th and occupies 6th. Also
Mars aspect on 1st and 2nd. Sub lord
Sun owning 5th, Sun Conj. with 12th

Thus Asc sublord Mars strong
significtor of 8th (Operation) and
connected with Mars 8th (Operation),
karaka for vision Sun and 2nd
(vision, right eye) bhava, as well as
cure of disease 5th. Hence native
have to do eye operation.
12th cusp. (Pisces 20°.45') The sub

lord of the 12th cusp is Venus.
Venus is in the star of Jupiter and
sub of Mercury. Question is related
to eye problem hence we have to
check 12th Bhava. 12th cuspal
sublord Venus is karaka of eye VISIOn and owning 2nd (vision, right eye), star
lord jupiter owning 12th (left eye, defect), sub lord Mercury owning 6 (disease).
Both Jupiter and Mercury are aspected by eye vision karaka Moon and Conj
with eye vision karaka Sun. Thus 12th cuspal sub lord is the significtor of 12th
and connected with 6th and 2nd, also with Venus, Sun and Moon. Hence it is
clear that at the time of question native suffering from eye problem.

above given rules, star and sub lord of dasanath are connected with Venus,

Bhukti dasanath is Mercury. Mercury owning 6th (Disease), is in the star of
Ketu and sub of Saturn. Ketu aspected by Mars, Mars is owning 8th. As we
discuss about Saturn above, sub lord Saturn is connected with 12th and Venus.
Thus Bhukti dasanath Mercury Indicate eye operation. hence during Jupiter
dasa and Mercury Bhukti befor 4-5-1981 chance of eye operation.
At the time of judgment the running joint period is Jupiter-Mercury-Rahu up
to 6-9-1980. Rahu is not in ruling planets. Next Jupiter-Mercury-Jupiter running
from 6-9-1980 to 25-12-1980. During this period querent would face more
trouble of eye problem. Mars is Asc sub lord, and strong significator of 8th.
Thus during 3-12-1980 to 9-12-1980 of Jupiter-Mercury-Jupiter-Mars running
dasa when Go char agrees eye operation is sure. Actually during this joint period,
on 5-12-1980 querent's right eye was removed.

convenience each house counted
from the 5th cusp.
Moon is in the star of Jupiter in
4. So it is the significator of 4
(examinations). Moon is aspected by
Mercury owning 11 (success) and
occupying 9 (higher studies). Thus
moon clearly indicates that the
query refers to the examination
results of the querent's son.
Cuspal Sub lord

Cusp 4th (Scorpio 05°.36'):
The sub lord of 4th cusp is Mercury.
Mercury is in 9 and retrograde. Its
star lord Ketu occupies I and sub
Saturn occupies 9. So Mercury is
the significator of I and connected
with 9.
The examination of the querent's son commenced on 12-4-1971 and it is to
continue up to 23-4-1971. The 4th cuspal sub lord Mercury remains in
retrograde motion during these days. So the querent's son will not get success
in the examination for the time being.
Cusp 11th (Gemini or .36):

The sub lord of 1l'h cusp is Ketu, in the star of Mercury and sub of Jupiter.
Star lord Mercury is owning 11 and occupying 9. Sub lord Jupiter is in 4 and
retrograde. So it is the significator of 9, 11 and connected with 4.
But both the star lord and the sub lord of this cuspal sub lord remain in
retrograde motion during the days of the examination. So the querent's son
will not get success in the examination for the time being.
Joint Period
At the time of judgment and during the days of the examination (Balance dasa
of Jupiter for 4Y 3M 25D) the querent's son is running the joint period of
Jupiter, Moon and Rahu.
All these three planets are the significators of 4, 9 and 11. But Jupiter the
dasanath, Jupiter the star lord of the bhukti dasanath Moon and Jupiter the
sub lord of the antar dasanath Rahu remains in retrograde motion during the
days of the examination. So the querent's son will not get success in the
examination for the time being.
Thus, in this case the point of retro gradation appears at every stage in the
way of success in the examination.
Querent's 11th Cusp (Capricorn 23°·.36')

The sub lord of 11 <h cusp is Mars, in the star of Venus and sub of Mercury,
Star lord Venus occupies 11 Sub lord Mercury in 1. So it is the significator of
11 and connected with 1.
But cuspl sub lord Mars is in the sub of Mercury and Mercury is retrograde
PRASHNA JYOTISH 93
motion and remains in retrograde motion during the days of the examination.
So the querent's son will not get success in the examination for the time being.
The results of the examination were declared on 27-5-1971 and unluckily the
querent's son failed in the M.B.B.S. examination.

Moon
ln this horary map the father asked the question about his son. 11oon is in
PRASHNA JYOTISH 95
12 (worries to the querent). Consider the 5th cusp as the son's Asc. and proceed.
For convenience each house counted from the 5th cusp. Moon owns 11, its
star lord Mars owns 2 and occupies 6. Sub lord Saturn owns 6th. So Moon is
the significator of 2 (money to the
son), 6 (scholarship to the son) and
connected with 11 (gain to the son).
Hence Moon clearly indicates that
the querent is worried about the
scholarship to his son.
Son's 11th Cusp. (Cancer 24°.16'):

The sub lord of 11th cusp is Rahu.
Rahu is in the star and sub of
Jupiter. Rahu (being in Aquarius)
represents Saturn. Its star and sub
lord Jupiter is direct in motion; it
owns 4 and aspects on Satrun
owner of 6th. So 11th cuspal sub
lord Rahu is the significator of 4
and connected with 2 and 6. Hence
the scholarship for studies is
promised to the querent's son. But
sub lord Rahu is represent Saturn,
hence we can say querent's son get
scholarship but in installment.
Querent 11th Cusp. (Pisces 27°.16'):

The sub lord of 11th cusp is Jupiter. Jupiter is in the star of Rahu and sub
of Saturn. Jupiter owns 11. Jupiter is owner of son's 4 and occupies Asc. it
is in the star Rahu which represents Saturn, Saturn is occupent of 11 and
son's owner of 6. So Jupiter is the significator of ll (Full fill of desire) and
connected with sons's 4 (eduction), 6 (scholarship), hence we can say querent's
son get scholarship.
Ruling Planets
Day. Monday Moon
Asc. Aquarius 25°.09' Saturn Jupiter
Moon. Taurus Venus Mars
None of these planets is in the star or sub of a retrograde planet. So the
ruling planets are Moon, Mars, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn. All this planets
are significtor of son's scholarship.
Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Mars for 4Y lM 1D) the querent's
son is running the joint period of Mars-Saturn up to 20-8-1970 and joint period
of Mars-Saturn-Venus. Upto 20-2-1970.
As we have discussed above querent's son get scholarship in installment. So
96 PRASHNA JYOTISH
his son will get scholarship up to 20-8-1970.
During Saturn bhukti we found antra ofVenus, Moon, Mars, Rahu and Jupiter.
And he gets scholarship in installment during all this antra.
Actually, he first received a first installment of scholarship on 19-2-1970
thereafter, he received partial amounts of scholarship regularly every month
and the final amount was received in the month of July 1970 during the joint
period of Mars, Saturn and Jupiter.
Transit
On 19-2-1970 Moon is transiting in Cancer in the star of Saturn (the bhukti
nath).
In July 1970 Sun was transiting in Gemini in the star Jupiter (the antra nath);
Mars in Cancer in the star Saturn (the bhuktinath) and Jupiter in Libra in
the star Mars (the dasanath).

Moon :
In this horary map Moon owns 4 (studies), it is in conjunction with Jupiter

retrograde. lts star lord Mercury owns 6, occupies 9 and aspects the 4th, Its
sub lord Jupiter owns 9, it is in conjunction with the owner of 4 (Moon) and

significator of 6, 9, 4 and connected with 9, 11 and 4. Hence the querent's
desire to get the scholarship regarding the research studies will be fulfilled.
9th cusp (Sagittarius 15° .04):

The sub lord of the 9th cusp (research studies) is Venus. lt is in its own star
in the 9th and in the sub of Rahu in Libra (Rahu represents Venus). None of
them is retrograde. So the cuspal sub lord of 9 is the strong significator of 9.
Hence the querent will be able to complete his research work.
Ruling Planets
Day: Friday Venus
Asc: Aquarius 17°.53' Saturn Rahu
Moon: Pisces 28°. 14' Jupiter Mercury
Rahu is in Libra, it represents Venus. Ketu is aspected by Saturn, so it
represents Saturn. Hence Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu
are the ruling planets. Saturn is retrograde, but it gets direct from 28-3-1976,
so it will give results after this date.
Joint Period :
At the time of judgment (Balance
dasa of Mercury for 2Y 3M lD) the
querent was running the joint period
of Mercury, Saturn and Mercury up
to 18-6-1976. Mercury owns 6
(scholarship) and 3 (completion of
study being 12th from the 4th); it is
in the star of Sun owning 5
(completion of study being 12th from
the 6th competitive examination) and
occupying 10 (achievement). So
Mercury is the significator of 5 and
10. The scholarship and completion
of studies will serve as sources of an
event in respect of achievement in
study. Saturn is in its own star and
sub; it owns 10, 11 (gain) and occupies 3. So it denotes achievement, gain
and completion of study. Both are among the ruling planets. Hence the queren t
will be getting the scholarship after 28-3-1976 and before 18-6-1976 in this
joint period of Mercury, Saturn and Mercury.
The joint period of Mercury and Saturn continues up to 7-5-1978. So the
querent will go on with his research work till this date.
The querent informed me that the scholarship was awarded to him from 5-5-
1976 and he completed his research work of PhD. in May 1978.

Ketu occupant of 9th, sub lord Mercury karka of Meeting and occupant of 10th.
Thus Moon clearly indicates that the query refers to meeting for higher salary.

The sub lord of the 11th cusp is Saturn, in the star and sub of Ketu. Saturn
is in direct motion and owner of 9th and occupant of 2nd. Starlord and sublord
ketu is occupant of 9th. Ketu is in pisces sign, so represents Jupiter owner of

11th cusp sub lord Saturn signifies 10th and connected with 2nd and 9th. Hence
meeting or interview for higher salary will be successful.

The sub lord of the 3rd cusp is
Mars. ln the star and sub of
Mercury. Mars is owner of 6th (Job),
11th (promotion). Star lord Mercury
is occupant of 10th. Thus Mars is
significtor of I Oth and connected
with 6, 10 and 11. Hence querent
will select in interview with higher
salary.
Cusp 9th. (Aquarius 17° .57):

The sub lord of the 9th cusp is Sun,
in the star of Venus and sub of
Saturn. Sun is owner of 3rd and
occupant of lOth. Star lord Venus
occupant of 11th. Sub lord Saturn
owner of 9th and occupant of 2nd.
Thus 9th cusp sub lord Sun is significator of 11'h (gain, success, fulfill of desire),
and connected with 2, 10, 3 and 9. Hence querent will be selected in interview
for higher salary.

Thus the significator of 2, 6, 10, 11 are Ketu, Mars, Mer, Sun, Venus and
Rahu.
Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Ketu for OY 6M 16D) the querent
was running the joint period of Ketu-Mercury up to 22-11-1978.
There is no control on dasa and antardasa. Ketu is sub lord of 10th also Ketu
is a ruling planet and significator. So during Ketu-Mercury there is chance of
success in getting higher salary job. (Kanak Bosmia: Mercury is not in RP ifwe
consider 5 RP's, but it is found that if we consider 7 RPs we have Mercury in
RP. Check above RP table)
11 <h, 3rd, and 9th cusp sub lords indicate interview and selection for this job,
so consider this condition. Generally during interview selection will be completed.
Querent was called for an interview on 10-5-1978. The querent is running the
joint period of Ketu-Mercury-Moon. (From 24-4-1978 to 23-5-1978).
Moon is fast moving planet, owner of 2nd and occupant of 10th, conj. with
owner of 3rd Sun. No planet aspect on both planets. As discussed above Moon
is strongly indicate meeting/interview. Thus during Ketu-Mercury-Moon, querent
will get favorable reply for interview.
ln addition during Ketu-Mercury-Mars joint period, Ketu-Mercury-Mars are in

ruling planet and significator. Mars is the cuspal sub lord of 3rd, Saturn is the
sub lord of 11th cusp. So we need to think about it.
After Ketu-Mercury-Moon we have Mars antra. Mars is owner of 6th and 11th.
So indicate chance of job during Mars antra. Ketu-Mercury-Mars joint period
runs from 30-5-1978 to 3-6-1978, hence querent will get success in interview
and get high salary job during this joint period.
Actually the querent took job (change) with high salary from 1-6-1978. At
that time the querent was running the joint period of Ketu-Mercury-Mars-Saturn
(From 30-5-1978 to 3-6-1978).

Moon
In this horary map the father asked the question about her son. So consider
the 5th cusp as the Asc. for the son and proceed. For convenience each house
counted from the 5th cusp. Moon is occupant of 3 (Change). It is in star of
Ketu and sub of Mercury. Star lord Ketu occupant of Son's 2nd (Money), Sub
lord Mercury is son's Lagnesh and occupant of 10th. Thus Moon clearly indicates
that the querent is worried about job, money, and change in job of his son.

Son's 3rd Cusp (Leo 10°.26'.40"):
Saturn, in the star of Sun and

the querent's son has no job change to a bank but will get raise in salary in
his present job. 10th cusp sub lord does not signify 3rd or 12th at all.

At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Ketu for OY OM 10D) the querent

however got gain in salary at his present job.
On 14-5-1971 Venus dasa starts. Venus was in Mercury star and own sub.
Thus Venus signifies lOth, 1st and 4th. After some day's querent's son get good

or owner or it's star lord is

Thus 6th cusp sub lord does not

Joint Period
At the time ofjudgment (Balance

the querent is running the joint
period of Venus-Venus. Venus is
in the star of Saturn and sub of
Mercury. Star lord Saturn is
owner of 10th, 11th and occupant of 6th. Sub lord Mercury is owner of 3rd and
6th and occupant of 6th. Thus Venus signifies 10, 11, and 6 and is connected
with 3, 6. All these does not signify change in job. Hence he will not change
job and continue his job in the mill. Until this period (July 1981) he is working
in the same mill. 10th cusp sub lord does not signifies change in job, so there
is no meaning to check joint period rulers.

Cusp 12th (Taurus 04°.16') : The sub lord of the 12th cusp is Saturn, in the
star and sub of Moon. Star lord Moon is owner of 3rd (Change of place), and
occupant of 12'h. So 12th cusp sub lord Saturn is significator of 3 and 12.
Hence the querent's desire will be fulfilled and he will change place.
Cusp 11th (Pisces 29°.16') : The sab lord of the ll'h cusp is Saturn. Hence
the position will be the same as above.

Ketu is in the sign of Capricorn, aspected by Jupiter. Hence Ketu represent
Saturn and Jupiter. Rahu is in the sign of Cancer, representing Moon. Thus
the ruling planets are Sun, Moon, Venus, Saturn, Jupiter, Rahu and Ketu.

Thus the significator of 3 and 12 are Moon, Saturn and Ketu. All significator
are also Ruling planet hence during joint period of Moon, Saturn and Ketu,
queren' s desire will be fulfilled.
Joint Period
At the time ofjudgment (Balance
dasa of Moon for 5Y 4M 19D) the
querent is running the joint
period of Moon-Saturn-Mercury.
Moon-Saturn-Ketu period runs
from 6-12-1980 to 9-1-1981, so
during this period q ueren t' s
desire will be fulfilled and he will
change his place. Querent came
to Ahmedabad and started
dispensary on 15-12-1980.
Transit
On date 15-12-1980 when Sun
was transiting in Sagittarius
00°.12' in the Star of Ketu (Antra
lord); Moon in Pisces 6° in the
star of Saturn (Bhukti lord). Ketu
PRASHNA JYOTISH 119

was transiting in Capricorn 19°.54' in the star of Moon (Dasa nath), sub of
Ketu.
In this case querent wanted to change his place for business purposes. For
business we have to check 2, 6, 10. Thus generally 3rd and 12th cusp sub
lords are also connected with 2, 6, 10. Also significator of 3rd and 12th are
connected with 2, 6, 10.
In this horary map 12th cusp sub lord is Saturn. Saturn is owner of 10th. Star
lord of Saturn is Moon and owner of 2nd. Thus Saturn connected with 2 and
10.
Like this joint period lords (3rd and 12th significators) Moon-Saturn-Ketu all
these three planets are in the star of Moon, thus they are connected with 2nd.

Hints
For job or business we check 2, 6, 10. 12th from above cusp 1, 5, 9 are negative
cusp for 2, 6, 10. 12th bhava indicates loss, thus for retirement from job or
business we have to consider cusps l, 5, 9, 12.
If the sub lord of the 10th or 6th cusp be the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of 1, 5, 9 or 12 the querent can retire from service or
business during the joint period of the significators of l, 5 or 9. These
significators are generally connected with the houses of service 2, 6 or 10.
Moon
In this horary map the wife asked the question about her husband. Thus
consider the 7th cusp as the husband's Asc. and proceed. For convenience each
house counted from the 7th cusp. Moon is owner of the 5th and occupant of
9th. Moon is aspected by Saturn owner of 12th. Moon is in the star of Ketu
and sub of Venus. Ketu conjoined with Saturn, owner of 12th, aspected by
owner of 5th Moon. sub lord Venus is occupant of 9th and conjoined with owner
of 5th Moon also aspected by 12th lord Saturn. So Moon is significator of 5, 9,
12. Thus Moon clearly indicates that the query refers to husband's retirement
from service or job.
PRASHNA JYOTISH 121
Cusp 10th (Sagittarius 13°.19' :
It is jointly ruled by Jupiter (Sign
lord), Ketu (Star lord), Mercury
(Sub lord). Jupiter is in the star
and sub of Moon. Star and sub
lord Moon is owner of 5th and
occupant of 9th. So Moon is the
significator of 5, 9.
Ketu is in the star and sub of
Rahu. Star and Sub lord Rahu
occupant of 9th, so Ketu is
significator of 9th.
Mercury is in the star of Jupiter
and sub of Rahu. Star lord
Jupiter owner of 1st, and sub lord
Rahu occupant of 9th, so Mercury
is significator of l and 9th. Thus
lOth cusp joint ruler significator
of husband's l, 5, 9. Hence the querent's desire will be fulfilled.

Thus the significators of 1, 5, 9, 12 are Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Sun, Saturn

by Saturn. Thus we gave first preference to Rahu instead of Jupite, Venus,
Saturn. Ketu is conjoined with Saturn and aspected by Venus. Thus we gave
first preference to Ketu instead of Venus, Saturn. Hence strong significators
are Sun, Mar, Rahu and Ketu.
Common planet among ruling planets and significators are Mar, Rahu and
Ketu, so we need to check joint period of Mar, Rahu, Ketu. Mar connected

Hints
If the sub lord of the lOth or 6th cusp be the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of l, 5 or 9, the querent can leave service during the joint
period of the significators of 1, 5 or 9. These significators are generally
connected with the houses of service 2, 6 or 10.
Moon
The querent desires to leave service because he does not keep good health. In
this horary map Moon occupies the 9th and owns the lOth. It is in the star of
Jupiter owning 3, 6 and occupying 3. It is in the sub of Saturn owning 5. So
it is the significator of 3 (change), 6 (service) and connected with 5 (absence of
service), 9 (absence of occupation) and 10 (occupation). Thus Moon clearly
indicates that the query refers to leaving of service or occupation. Further Moon
is aspected by Jupiter, the owner of 6. So it indicates ill health (and service).
Cusp lOth (Cancer 16° .40') : The sub lord of the lOth cusp is Mercury. It is
direct in motion. It occupies 5. Its star lord Saturn is direct in motion,. it
owns 5. Its sub lord Moon occupies 9. So Mercury is the significator of 5 and
connected with 5 and 9. Hence it signifies leaving service.
124 PRASHNA JYOTISH
Cusp 6th (Pisces 18° .40') :
The sub lord of the 6th cusp is Ketu. It occupies 9. Its star lord Saturn is in
direct motion, it owns 5. It is in its own sub. So Ketu is the significator of 5
and connected with 9. Hence it denotes leaving service.
Cusp 11th (Leo 18° .40):

The sub lord of the 11'h cusp is Rahu. Its star lord Sun owns 11 and occupies
6. Its sub lord Ketu occupies 9. So Rahu is the significator of 6, 11 and
connected with 9. Hence the querent's desire to leave service on account of ill
health will be fulfilled.
Ruling Planets:
Asc. Leo 24°.40' Sun Venus Mercury
Moon. Gemini 22°.34' Mercury Jupiter Saturn
None of them is in the star or sub of a retrograde planet. So the ruling planets
are Sun, Mercury, Jupiter and Venus.
Joint Period
(l) At the time of judgment
(Balance dasa of Jupiter for 12Y
liM ID). The querent is running
the joint period of Jupiter,
Saturn and Venus.
Jupiter is in the star and sub of
Venus. Jupiter owns 6, it is in
the star and sub of Venus
owning l which is conjoined with
Saturn owning 5. So it is the
significator of l, 5 and connected
with l, 5 and 6.
Bhukti lord Saturn is in the star
of Moon and sub of Mars. Star
lord Moon owning 10 and
occupies 9; it is in the sub of
Mars owning 2 in conjoined with
Saturn owning 5 and Venus
owning l. So it is the significator
of 9, 10 and connected with 1,
2 and 5.
Antra lord Venus is in the star of Moon and sub of own. Star Moon owns 10
and occupies 9; it is in its own sub Venus owning 1 in conjoined with Mars
owning 2 and Saturn owning 5. So it is the significator of 9, 10 and connected
with 1, 2 and 5.

after summer vacation.
5) The sookshma period of Rahu starts from 30-5-1972 and lasts up to 22-6-
1972. Rahu is the cuspal sub lord of 11 and denotes the fulfillment of the
querent's desire as previously discussed. So the querent will leave service before
22-6-1972 during the joint period of Jupiter, Saturn, Venus and Rahu.

Moon
In this horary map Moon owns
10 (status, position). It is in
conjunction with Sun owning 11
(fulfillment of desire) and Jupiter
owning 6 (service, job). Moon is
in the star of Saturn and in the
sub of Sun. Its star lord Saturn
occupies 10 and its sub lord Sun
owns 11. So Moon is significator
of 10 and connected with 11, 6,
10. Thus Moon clearly indicates
that the query refers to a job of

Cusp 11 1h (Leo 28°.10): The sub

(Kanak Bosmia: No planet in the stars of Moon rule is applicable here). Thus
strong significators are Moon, Mars, Saturn and Ketu.

Joint period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Saturn for of 8Y 6M 18D) the querent
is running the joint period of Saturn and Sun. Bhukti of Moon will commence
from 15-1-1980 and will continue up to 15-8-1981. Moon is the strong
significator for the expected job; moreover it is also the cuspal sub lord both
of 2 and 11. So bhukti of Moon is very favorable to the querent. Further the
querent will run the joint period of the significators Saturn, Moon and Mars
(owning 2) from 2-3-1980 to 5-4-1980. Mars is in its own star owning 2 and
in the sub Jupiter owning 6. Hence if is likely that the querent may get a job
of his expectation during this time.
The querent informed me that on date 24-3-1980 he was called for an interview
in Chicago (USA) and he was offered an excellent post of his expectation. Thus
the event occurred during the joint period of the significators Saturn, Moon,
Mars and Ketu (23-3-1980 to 25-3-1980).

ln this horary map Moon is conJomt with Jupiter, owner of 6th, and Moon is

is connected with 11, 10, 6. Thus Moon clearly indicates that the query refers
to a job of the querent's expectation.
Cusp 11th (Taurus 03°.46') : The sub lord of the 11th cusp is Saturn. It owns
9 (research) and it is in the I st (self). It is retrograde and it is a slow moving
planet. Hence the querent has to keep patience. lt is in the star and sub of
Mercury in 9; Mercury is in conjunction with Venus, owner of 11. So Saturn
is the significator of 9 and connected with 9 and 11. Hence the querent's
desire to obtain the position as a Research & Development Engineer will be
fulfilled after long wait with patience.
Cusp 6th (Sagittarius 05° .34') : The sub lord of the 6th cusp is Rahu. Rahu is
in the star of Mars and sub of Ketu. Star lord Mars owns 10 and is in the
sub of Ketu in 10. Rahu is in Libra represents Venus owning 11 (success). So
Rahu is the significator of 10 and connected with 9, 10 and 11. Hence the
130 PRASHNA JYOTISH

querent will succeed in getting the job as a Research & Development Engineer.
Cusp 10th (Aries 00°.46') : The sub lord of the 10th cusp is Ketu. It is in its
own star and sub of Venus. Ketu is in 10 and in the sub of Venus owning
11 in 9. So Ketu is the significator of 10 and connected with 9 and 11. Hence
the querent will succeed in getting the job as a Research & Development
Engineer.
Ruling Planets
Day. Saturday Saturrn
Asc. Gemini 26°.00' Mercury Jupiter
Moon. Taurus 24°.18' Venus Mars
Rahu is in Libra, so it represents Venus. Ketu is in Aries, so it represents
Mars. Hence Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu become
the ruling planets.
All these planets are the significators of 9 and connected with 6, 9, 10 or 11.
Saturn and Venus are retrograde, but they turn direct from 11-4-1977 and
27-4-1977 respectively. Hence they will give results after the above dates.
Joint period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Mars for 6Y 5M 27D), the querent is
running the joint period of Mars
and Rahu.
The dasanath Mars is among the
ruling planets and it is the
significator of 11 and connected
with 9 and 10. The cuspal sub
lord of 11th Saturn is also the
ruling planet and it is the
with 9 and 11.
lt is my experience that If the
period ruler be the significator of
an expected event and 11th
cuspal sub lord also, the event
occurs during the joint period of
the period ruler and the cuspal
sub lord of 11 (if it be the
desired significator). The joint
period of Mars and Saturn
continues from 14-2-1979 to 23-
3-1980. So the querent's desire
is likely to be fulfilled during this time period.
The querent desires the position as a Research & Development Engineer. The
9th house is connected with the research work. Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and
Saturn are the significators of the 9th. They are among the ruling planets.

stay in in the foreign land.
11th cusp (Aquarius 28°.28): The sub lord of the ll'h is Venus. It is in the
star of Venus owning I, 6 and occupying 8 and it is in the sub of Jupiter
owning 8 and occupying 11. None of them is retrograde. Thus the cuspal sub
lord of 11 is the significator of 1, 6 (success), 8 (disappointment) and connected
with 8 and 11. Hence the querent's desire will ultimately be fulfilled however
after feeling some disappointment.
Ruling Planets:

Rahu is in Libra, so it represents Venus. Ketu is in Aries, so it represents

Mars. Hence Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Rahu and Ketu become the ruling

Mars and Rahu are the significators of 11; while Venus and Ketu are tbe
significators of 1 and 6.
Joint period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Mercury for OY OM 23D) the querent
is running the joint period of Mercury and Saturn. The dasa of Ketu commences
from 29-2-1976. It is among the
ruling planets and it is the
significator of I and 6.
In the dasa of Ketu the querent
will have to run the bh ukti
periods of Venus, Mars and
Rahu. All of them are the ruling
planets and also the significators
of 1, 6 and 11. But the querent
has to feel some disappointment
in the first instance and as Rahu
is significator of 11'h and sub
lord of 3rd (Correspondence), thus
during Ketu dasa and Rahu
bhukti considered. In the bhukti
of Rahu first antra come is
Venus, sub lord of 11. The Joint

Querent is already in USA and now wants to stay permanently, it is his desire
(11). To settle in abroad means to consider abroad as home (4). In this horary
map Moon is owner of 9 (abroad), in conjunction with the Venus, owner of
12th (stay in abroad). Thus Moon refers to the query regarding success or
fulfillment of desire of getting Green card.
Moon is in the star of Ketu and sub of Saturn. Star lord Ketu is conjoint with
Mercury, owner of 11th (fulfillment of desire). Sub lord Saturn is owner of 4th
and occupant of 10th and aspects on 4th cusp, conjoint with Asc lord (querent)
Mars. So Moon indicates querent's desire to settle in abroad and for that he
needs permission from the USA government (Green card).
Asc. (Scorpio 10° .20') : The sub lord of the Asc (efforts of the querent) is
Sun. Sun is in the star of Saturn and sub of Mercury. Asc. Indicates querent's
desire and his effort. Sun, owner of 10th (business/job) in 4th (present residence)
cusp. Its star lord Saturn is owner of 4th and in 10th. Sub lord Mercury is
near to 4th cusp, and owner of 11'h (fulfillment of desire). So Asc sub lord Sun
136 PRASHNA JYOTISH

signifies 4th and lOth and is
connected with 4th and 11 <h.
Thus querent's stay at present
place and his attempt to get
green card will be successful.
Especially now, Asc sub lord's
star lord and sub lord are in
retrograde motion, so querent
can get success after long time
and more effort.
11th cusp (Virgo 17°.42'): The

sub lord of the 11th cusp is
Saturn. Saturn is in the star of
Sun and sub of Rahu. Sub lord
Saturn is slow moving planet
also in retrograde motion. So
fulfillment of desire will be
delayed for long time. Saturn is
in 10th and owner of 4th. Star
lord Sun owning 10 and occupying 4. Sub lord Rahu occupies 9. Thus the
cuspal sub lord of ll'h is the significator of 4, 10 and connected with 9. Hence
the querent's desire will be fulfilled.
Ruling Planets:

Rahu is conJomt with Mars, so it represents Mars. Ketu is conjoint with

of 1l'h. Both are in ruling planets and connected with 4, 11. During this Ketu-
Mercury joint period running from 30-9-1980 to 27-9-1981, querent will get
his Green card.
Both ruling planets Mars and Rahu are in the sub of Moon, which is conjoint
with 12th lord Venus. So we assume during antra period of both planets querent
will have a chance to get Green card. Rahu represents Mars. Rahu is in the
star of Ketu. Star lord Ketu is conjoint with owner of 11th Mercury and aspected
by Saturn owner of 4th. So Rahu is connected with 4, ll. We have to give first
preference to Rahu. Thus during joint period of Ketu-Mercuzy-Rahu (18-4-1981
to 12-6-1981), the procedure will start regarding querent's desire to get the
Green card.
Dasanath Ketu is in the star of Mars and sub of Venus. Star lord Mars is
conjoined with owner of 4'h Saturn and aspected by owner of 11th Mercury.
Thus dasanath Ketu is connected with 4,11.
Bhukti lord Mercury is in the star of Rahu and sub of own. Star lord Rahu is
conjoint with owner of 4th Saturn and aspected by owner of 11th Mercury. Thus
Bhukti nath Mercury is connected with 4 and 11.
Antra lord Rahu is in the star of Ketu and sub of Moon. Star lord Ketu is
conjoint with owner of 11th Mercury and aspected by Saturn owner of 4th. Thus
Rahu is connected with 4, 11.
So dasa lords of joint period are connected with 4th (permanent stay), 11th
(fulfillment of desire), and 12th (stay in aborad). Thus on 29-4-1981 querent's
Green card application was sanctioned.

On 29-04-1981 Sun in Aries 15° .05' was trans1tmg in the star of Venus

Hints
l. For job or income we have to check 2, 6, 10 bhavas. 1, 5, 9 are 12th from
2, 6, 10, which indicate loss or change in job. Bhava 8 indicates suspension/
some kind of punishment. Bhava 12 indicates losses. So for suspension in job
we have to check bhava 1, 8, 9 and 12. For removal or dismissal we have to
check 1, 5, 9.
2. If the cuspal sub lord of the 2, 6, 10 be the significator of l, 5, 8, 9 and
12, then suspension and removal or dismissal in service/job is indicated during
the joint period of the significators of 1, 5, 9, 8 and 12.
If cuspal sub lord indicates suspension, removal or dismissal from service/job
and running joint period lords signify 2, 6, 10, even then there is no chance
to reinstatement in job/ service.
Moon
In this horary map the wife asked the question about her husband, so consider
7th cusp as husband's Asc. So consider the 7th cusp as the husband's Asc.
and proceed. For convenience each house counted from the 7th cusp. Moon is

So Moon singifies 6 (job), 5 (loss
of job) and connected with 8
(suspension). Thus Moon
indicates clearly that at the time
of question, query is related to
job and her husband had no job
at that time.
Husband's 6th (Virgo OP .36):

Jupiter. Jupiter is in the star of
Mercury and sub of own. Jupiter
is owner of 12th. Its star lord
Mercury is owner of 6th. So Asc
sub lord Jupiter signifies 6th and

+-----------~--------~------------+
Sa 08:07 Husband's 2nd (Aries 29° .36):
The sub lord of the 2nd cusps
is Rahu. Rahu is in the star of
Jupiter and sub of Moon. Rahu
v 00:36 x29 ,36 is occupant of 8th; star lord
Ve 07:t6 Jupiter is retrograde and
occupant of husband's 12th ;
Vlll29:36 IX29:36
sub lord Moon is occupant of
VII 00:00 Ra 00:30 husband's 6th. So 2nd cuspal
sub lord Rahu signifies 12
(loss) and is connected with 6th and 8th (punishment/suspension). Thus querent
will not be reinstated in the job.
Husband's 10th (Sagittarius 29° .36):

The sab lord of the IQth cusp is Rahu. Hence the position will be the same as
above.
Husband's 11th cusp (Aquarius 00°.36'): The sub lord of the lith is Mercury.
Mercury is in the star of Mars and sub of Jupiter. Star lord Mars is owner of
Asc and 9th. Sub lord Jupiter is occupying 12 and owner of 12th. Thus the
cuspal sub lord of 11 is the significator of !(no Income), 9th (loss of job) and
connected with 12 (loss). Hence the querent will not be reinstated in the job.
Wife's 11th cusp (Leo 00°.36'): The sub lord of the 11th is Ketu. Ketu is in
140 PRASHNA JYOTISH
the star of Sun and sub of Rahu. Ketu is occupant of wife's 8th. Star lord Sun
is occupant of 12th. Sub lord Rahu is in sign Scorpio, so Rahu represents
Mars. Mars is owner of wife's 8th , so we can consider Rahu is the significator
of 8th. Thus the wife's cuspal sub lord of 11 is the significator of 12 (loss/
tension) and connected with 8th (punishment/suspension). Hence the querent's
husband will not be reinstated in the job.
Joint period
In this horary map the sub lords of 2, 6, 10 and 11 indicate no reinstatement
in job, so there is no need to check joint period of dasa lords. But for our
satisfaction and more confirmation, we will check joint period lords.
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Moon for OY 6M 130), the jont period
of Moon-Venus-Ketu is running. Dasanath Moon's sub lord Venus is owner of
8th and occupant in 5th. Bhukti nath Venus's sub lord Rahu is occupant of
8th, also Rahu represents Mars. Mars is owner of 9th and Asc. Antra nath
Ketu is in the star of Sun, owner of 5th. And sub of Rahu, occupant of 8th .
Thus joint dasa period lords also indicate that querent's husband will not have
reinstatement in the job.
As per last news from querent, her husband was suspended from his job on
10-10-1975.

Rahu is in the sign of Virgo, also Rahu is conjoined with Mars and Venus, so
it represents Mercury, Mars and Venus. Ketu is aspected by Mars and Venus,
so it represents Mars and Venus.
In the RPs Mercury is in own star and retrograde, so eliminate it. Consider
Rahu and Ketu for Mars and Venus. Hence Sun, Rahu and Ketu become the

11 <h (gain and fulfillment of desire), 12th (settlement in abroad) and occupant
of 6th (competitive exam, 12th from 7th loss of opponent and gain of self). So
Moon is the significator of house 2 (self-earning) and 11 (gain and fulfillment
of desire) and connected with 11, 12, 6. Thus Moon clearly shows that the
query wants success in the E.C.F M.G. examination to settle abroad for business.
Cuspal Sub Lord

Asc. Cusp. (Aries 04°.46'.40"): The sub lord ofthe Asc. and 11th cusp indicates
what is the intention of querent and fulfillment of his desire.
PRASHNA JYOTISH 145

Asc cusp sub lord is Mars. Mars
is in the star of Ketu and sub of
Sun. Star lord Ketu occupies 11'h
and sub lord Sun is in 12th and
almost on the cusp of 1st. So it is
the significator of the 11 (gain and
fulfillment of desire) and connected
with l and 12. Hence success in
the E.C.F.M.G. examination to
settle abroad for business is
promised.
Also owner of 9th and 10th Jupiter
aspects on Ketu and Sun, and is
conjoint with Mars. 11 <h cusp sub

Dasaanth Venus is in the star of Moon, occupant of lst and in the sub of

Hints
If the cuspal sub lord of the Asc. or cuspal sub lord of 11th be the occupant
ofthe 1, 2, 3, 6, 10, 11, or in the star of occupant of 1, 2, 3, 6, 10 or 11.,
then success in effort/planning in project is promised.
Moon
In this horary map Moon is occupant of 3 (one kind of agreement/discussion).
Moon is conjoined with owner of 3rd Sun and Jupiter owing lOth (4th from 7th;
opponent person, in this horary map we consider as builder). Also Moon is in
the star of Venus and sub of Mercury. Star lord Venus is owner of 12th, sub
lord Mercury is owner of 4th. Thus Moon refers to the query regarding discussion
about land and flat.
Asc. Cusp (Cancer 00°.00')

The sub lord of the Asc. is Moon. Moon is in the star of Venus and sub of
148 PRASHNA JYOTISH

Mercury. Moon is owner of Asc.
(querent) and 2nd (financial gain)
and occupant of 3 (help from
other). Star lord Venus is
occupant of 1"· Sub lord Mercury
is occupant of 3rd. So Asc. sub
lord Moon is the significator of
1st and 3rd. Thus querent's desire
will be fulfilled to build flats on
his land.
11th cusp (Arise 26°.41'):

The sub lord of 11th cusp is Sun.
Sun is in the star of Venus and
sub of Saturn. Sun is owner of
3rd and also occupant of 3rd. Its
star lord Venus is occupant of 1st
and sub lord Saturn is occupant
of 3rd. So the 11th cuspal sub lord
Sun signifies 1,3. Thus querent's
intention to build flats on his land for his sons and better future is promised.
4th cusp (Virgo 23°.41 '):

ln this horary map question is related to land and building, so we have to
check 4th cusp sub lord. 4th cusp sub lord is Mars. Mars is in the star of
Rahu and sub of Mercury. Mars is karaka of building, owner of 11'h and
occupant of 4th. lts star lord Rahu is occupant of 2nd. Sub lord Mercury is
owner of 4th. So 4th cusp sub lord Mars is the significator of 2nd (earning money)
Xll29:41 Xl26:41 X23:41 and connected with 4
(building) and 11 (gain). Thus
1x 21 ,41 querent will get benefit related

Sub lord of Sun is Saturn. Saturn is owner of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd of contractor,
also in conjoined with owner of 4th ( querent' s) Mercury.
Joint period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Venus for 2Y 10M lSD), the querent
PRASHNA JYOTISH 149
is running the joint period of Venus-Mercury-Sun.
Dasanath Venus is in the star of Saturn, occupant of 3rd. It is in the sub of
own, occupant of 1"'. Thus Venus signifies 3, I.
Bhukti lord Mercury is in the star of owner and occupant of 3rd Sun and sub
of own, occupant of 3rd. Thus Mercury signifies 3.
Antra lord Sun is also the significator of 1st. Sun is the sub lord of l l th. Hence
joint period of dasa indicates fulfillment of querent's desire.
Discussion is going on at the time of question. From 29-9-1980 to 24-12-1980
joint period Venus-Mercury-Moon is running. Antra lord Moon is sub lord of
Lagna. So Moon is the significator of lst and connected with 4th owned by sub
lord Mercury. In addition Moon is occupant of 3rd and owner of 2nd. Thus
querent will get benefit by contract with builder. Actually on 16-12-1980
contractor signed deed and paid Rs. 25000 (twenty five thousand) to querent.
Contractor started work on a part of his land, thus querent's future arrangement
was fulfilled.
Transits
On 16-12-1980 Sun in Sagittarius 1 o was transttmg in the sub of dasa lord
Venus. Moon in Pisces 17° was in the star of bhukti lord Mercury. Mercury in
Scorpio 22°. 09' was in the own star of Mercury. Venus was in Scorpio 4° in

ln this horary map Moon occupies 7th (business) and owns 10th (profession). It
is in the star of Venus which owns the Asc, 2 and occupies 11. So it is the
significator of the Asc. (self), 2 (self-earning) and 11 (gain and fulfillment of
desire). Thus Moon clearly shows that the query refers to self-earning, profession
or business dealings with others and gains there from to fulfill his desire.
Cuspal Sub Lord

10th Cusp. (Cancer 00°.18'):
Moon. Moon is in the star of Venus
and sub of Rahu. Moon occupies
7th (business) and owns 10th
(profession). lts star lord Venus is
in direct motion. Venus owns the
Asc, 2 and occupies 11. So it is
the significator of the Asc. (self), 2
(self-earning) and 11 (gain and
fulfillment of desire). As it is the
significator of 2 and 11, an
independent business is promised.
7th Cusp. (Aries 000.00' .00"):

Ketu. Ketu is in the star of own
and sub of Saturn. Ketu is conjoined with Venus. So Ketu represents Venus
and it has to give the results of Venus. Venus owning 2 and occupying 11.
Hence the cuspal sub lord of 7th cusp Ketu is the significator of 2 and 11 and
it shows gain in business.
11th Cusp. (Leo 01°.14):

The sub lord of the 11th cusp is Venus. Venus is in the star of own and sub

in 7 (business). It is in conjunction, So this position denotes that the querent
has to have patience for a long time. But Moon is the significator of 2 and 11
and Saturn is the significator of 10 and 11. So the querent's desire will be
fulfilled in the long run.

Ketu is in Leo sign, so represent Sun. Ketu is conjoined with Venus so also
represent Venus. Venus aspect on Rahu, so Rahu represent Venus. no one
planets are in the star or sub of retrograde planets. Thus the ruling planets
are Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Venus, Rahu and Ketu.
Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Venus for 11 Y 5M 210}, the querent
is running the period of Venus, significator of 2, 11 and also in the ruling
planets. The joint period of Venus, Rahu and Mercury is current from 14-7-
1970 and continues up to 17-12-1970. Rahu is the significator of 7th; Mercury
is the significator of 10th and both are in the ruling planets. So the querent
will begin his business activities during this period. Actually he started his
business in the month of November 1970.
The dasa lord Venus is the cuspal sub lord of 11 and this period continues
up to 17-1-1982. So the querent will continue his business activities throughout
this period. He has to pass the sub bhukti of Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury
and Ketu in the dasa of Venus. Rahu, Mercury, Ketu and Venus are in the
sub of Saturn. So the querent's progress will be slow and steady.
Jupiter is in the sub of Venus and Saturn is in the sub of Moon. So their
bhukti (17-3-1972 to 17-1-1978) will be favourable to make progress in business.
Ketu is the sub lord of the 7th cusp and its bhukti starts from 17-11 -1980
and continues up to 17-01-1982. As Ketu has to give the results of Venus
owning 2 and occupying 11, it will be better than other bhuktinath.
It was learnt from the querent in the month of December 1974 that he was
conducting his business in a small scale with a slow progress. And lastly it
was learnt from the querent in the month of August 1981 that his business
had slow progress.

retrograde motion till 24-7-1971 and drow of lottery is during April-May 1971,
so this dasa does not work for querent.
specily dasanath Rahu is in the sub of retrograde Jupiter and antranath jupiter
is it self retrograde motion till 24-7-1971. Drow oflottery is on April-May 1971.
Thus during joint period of Rahu, Saturn, Jupiter does not work for querent.
Actually in the draw of lottery during April-May 1971 querent does not get

Moon
occupant of 5th and also owner
of 5th. Thus Moon clearly
indicates the querent's desire to
get success as a cinema actor.
Cuspal Sub Lord

5th Cusp. (Cancer 20°.32'):
Venus. Venus is in the star and
sub of Mercury. Venus is
occupant of 12th. Mercury is
owner of 4th (12th from 5th) and
occupant of 12th. Hence 5th cusp
sub lord Venus is not a
significator of 5, 6, or lOth, thus
success as a cinema actor is not
promised.
Asc Cusp (Aries 00°.46.40"):

The sub lord of the Asc. cusp is Venus , occupant of 12th. Venus is in the
star and sub of Mercury. As we have discussed above, Venus is the significator
of 12'h.
Asc lord Mars and occupant of Asc Saturn both are in star and sub of Venus.
Thus they are the significator of 12'h. No planet is retrograde.
12th cusp indicates cheating, trap, fraud, treachery, betrayal. Asc. sub lord
Venus and occupant of Asc. Saturn strongly signify 12th, thus querent will be
cheated by someone in the name of acting in cinema.
Actually querent was cheated by someone who gave assurance to promote him
(querent) as an actor in film but he was not given a chance to do so and he
was betrayed.

the foreign travel is promised during the joint period of the significators of 3,
9 and 12.
Moon
In this horary map Rahu, sub lord of Moon, occupies 9th house. Moon in 4.
Thus the query refers to the foreign travel and study.
Cuspal Sub Lord

12th Cusp. (Taurus 19° .33):
The sub lord of the 12th cusp is Mercury. Mercury is in the star of Venus and
sub of Jupiter. Mercury is conjoined with 9th owner Saturn. Its star lord Venus
owns and occupies the 12th, also aspected by 9th owner Saturn. Sub lord Jupiter
aspects on 9th cusp and is also aspected by 9th owner Saturn. So Mercury is
the significator of 12th and connected with 9th. But the cuspal sub lord Mercury
is retrograde, and gets direct in motion from 22-5-1970 and crosses Aries
162 PRASHNA JYOTISH
29°.09', the point from where it
turned retrograde on 7-6-1970.
Hence the foreign travel is
promised and the querent will go
abroad after 7-6-1970 as the
cuspal sub lord Mercury is a fast
moving planet and its star lord
Venus is not retrograde.
11th Cusp. (Aries 15° .33')

The sub lord of the 11'h cusp is
Venus. It is in the star of Mars
and sub of Mercury. Venus is
owner and occupant of 12th. lts
star lord Mars owns 11th and
occupies 12th and also aspects on
3rd. The sub lord Mercury
occupies lith with 9th owner
Saturn. So Venus is the
significator of 11 (success), 12
(stay in abroad) and 3 (away from home) and connected with 9, 12, 11. The
cuspal sub lord Venus and its star lord Mars are not in retrograde motion.
Hence the querent's desire to go abroad will be fulfilled soon because Venus is
also a fast moving planet. But Mercury, sub lord of Venus is retrograde, as
discussed above, so he will go abroad after 7-6-1970.

running the joint period of Moon, Rahu and Venus. This period continues up
to 20-6-1970.
As discussed above, these three planets are the significators of travel abroad.
Moon and Rahu are the significators as well as in the ruling planets too. Venus
is the cuspal sub lord of 11th. Thus during its joint period from 7-6-1970 to
20-6-1970 querent will be able to go abroad for study.
The querent wants to go to America for higher study. So the joint period rulers
at the time of judgment should be the significators of 3, 9 and 12, and they
should be connected with 4, 9 and 11. If so, the querent will be able to go
abroad for study.
The dasa lord Moon is in its own star (Moon) in 4 and in the sub of Rahu in
9 and in the sub of Ketu in 3. Ketu is aspected by 11th lord Mars. Venus is
in the star of 11th owner Mars and sub of 4th owner Mercury. So Moon-Rahu-
Venus are the significators of foreign travel and connected with 4, 9 and 11.

Rahu in Aquarius 13".07' was in its own star; Venus in Gemini 28".28' was in

In this horary map Moon is in the star of Venus and sub of Jupiter. Star lord
Venus owns 12 and occupies 6. Sub lord Jupiter owns 10. So it is the
significator of 6 (employment), 12 (stay in foreign land) and connected with 10
(prospects). Thus Moon indicates that the querent desires to go abroad for
better prospects in employment.
Cuspal Sub Lord

12th Cusp. (Taurus 12°.36'):
The sub lord of the 12th cusp is Rahu. Rahu is in the star of Ketu and sub of
own. Star lord Ketu is in 12, in conj. with Saturn owning 9. It is in own sub
in 6. So it is the significator of 9, 12 and connected with 6. Hence Rahu
promises going abroad and staying there for a job.
11th Cusp. (Aries 08° .21):

The sub lord of the 11th cusp is Jupiter. Jupiter is in the star if Moon and
sub of Mars. Star lord Moon owns 2 and occupies 11. Moon, being aspected
by Sun owning 3, is connected with 3. Sub lord Mars owns 6, 11 and occupies
PRASHNA JYOTISH 165

Hence Jupiter promises the fulfillment of the querent's desire for better financial
prospects in foreign land.
Ruling Planets

At the time of judgment Rahu is in Sagittarius and conjoined with Venus.
Ketu is in Gemini and conjoined with Saturn. So Rahu represents Jupiter and
Venus and Ketu represent
Saturn. Thus the ruling planets
are Mars, Jupiter, Venus,
Saturn, Rahu, Ketu.
Joint Period
1) At the time of judgment
(Balance dasa of Venus for 7Y

the joint period of Venus and
Jupiter, which continues up to
10-6-1974.
2) Venus (dasa lord) is the sub

Scorpio 03°.13') on 6-12-1973. So after this date Venus will begin to manifest
its favourable influence.
3) Bhukti lord Jupiter, as discussed above. Jupiter is sub lord of 11th cusp
and in the ruling planets and also the significator of 2, 11 and connected
with 3, 6, 10, 11. So Jupiter is favourable for fulfillment of the querent's desire
before 10-6-1974. Now Jupiter is in the sub of retrograde Mars; Mars gets
into direct motion at 01 • .55' Aries from 26-11-1973 and it crosses the original
point of retrogradation (i.e. Aries 15 •. 53') on 18-1-1974. So the querent will be
able to go abroad between 18-1-1974 and 10-6-1974.
4) During this time the antar dasa of Rahu will be in progress (16-1-1974 to
10-6-1974). Rahu, as already discussed above. Rahu is 12th cusp sub lord and
also in the ruling planets. Rahu is the significator of 9, 12 and connected
with 6. So Rahu will be most congenial for foreign travel and stay abroad
when the transit agrees.
In this case Venus (cuspal sub lord of 9), Jupiter (cuspal sub lord of 11) and
Rahu (cuspal sub lord of 12) are the significators of/and connected with foreign
travel and better financial prospects. So their joint period is fruitful for foreign
travel. Moreover, the querent is running the joint period of the same planets
viz. Venus and Jupiter at the time of judgment.
Transit
1) Rahu in transit will move from 03 • .40' Sagittarius to 26 •. 03' Scorpio between
16-1-1974 and 10-6-1974, and it will pass through the sub of Jupiter between
7-5-1974 and 9-6-1974.
Jupiter in transit will move from 18•. 55' to 23•. 16' in Aquarius between 7-5-
1974 and 9-6-1974, and it will pass through the stars of Rahu and Jupiter.
So the querent will go to Chicago during this time, in the joint period of Venus,
Jupiter and Rahu.
Actually he left for Chicago on 8-6-197 4 at 01-30 AM IST by aero plane.
2) At that time Sun was transiting in Taurus 23 •. 20' from the 12th house in
the star of Mars (sookshma lord); Moon in Sagittarius 25° .'11' was in the star
of Venus (dasa lord); Venus in Aries 15 •. 30' was in its own star; Jupiter in

In this horary map Moon is almost exactly on 12th cusp (stay in foreign land),
owner of 9 (foreign travel/ higher education). It is in the star of Rahu and sub
of Saturn. Star lord Rahu in 9th and sub lord Saturn is owner of 3rd.
Consider 7th as Asc. for wife. Rahu in 3rd (away from home) and Saturn is
owner of 9th.
Thus Moon clearly indicates the question of going to a foreign land with wife.
Cuspal Sub Lord

12th Cusp. ( Libra 12°.31'):
The sub lord of the 12th cusp is Saturn. Saturn is in the star of Sun and sub
of Mercury. Saturn is owner of 3rd. Sub lord Mercury is a karaka for traveling
and owner of 11th and is conjoined with Saturn. So 12th cusp sub lord Saturn
is connected with 3rd (away from home) and 11. Hence Moon promises going
abroad.
Wife's 12th Cusp. (Aries 12°.31 '):

Thus the strong significtors of

consider Rahu as a significator.
Joint Period
(Balance dasa of Rahu for lOY

joint period of Rahu-Saturn up
to 2-10-1980. Only 19 days
from date of query.
Rahu is the sub lord of 11th

significators. Saturn is 12th cusp
sub lord of querent and also in
the ruling planets. But at the
time of query, querent does not submit any application for visa etc. , so there
is no meaning to consider Rahu-Saturn joint period.
Rahu-Mercury joint period starts from 2-10-1980. Mercury is the 12th cusp
sub lord of wife and the strong significator of 12th house. So during this joint

of Rahu and from 6-7-1981 in Gemini 20° in the star of Jupiter. Rahu is the
sub lord of 12th cusp of wife and dasanath. Jupiter is querent's 11th cusp sub
lord. Thus during 22-6-1981 to 20-7-1981 he will go to Canada with his wife.
(Because Sun will be transiting, from 6-7-1981 to 20-7-1981, in Gemini 20° to
Cancer 03 •. 20', in the star of Jupiter.)
Also Rahu-Mercury-Venus-Jupiter joint period starts from 22-6-1981 to 13-7-
1981, so during this period he will go to Canada with his wife.
Actually he left for Canada with his wife on 11-07-1981 early morning at 01.30
AM by air. At that time Sun was transiting in Gemini 25° in the star of
Sookshma dasanath Jupiter. Moon was transiting in Libra 13°.54' in the star
of Rahu dasanath, also Rahu was traveling in 12th. Mercury was in Gemini
os•. 11' in the sign of own and star of Mars, 9th significator. Venus was in
Cancer 20 •. 04' in the star ofbhukti lord Mercury. Jupiter was in Virgo 09 • .42'
in the sub of Venus, Antra lord. Rahu was in Cancer os·.S4' in the sub of
Venus.

Hint
If the sub lord of the 2, 6 or 11 cusp is the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of 2, 6 or II, financial gain is promised, during the joint
period of significators of 2, 6, 11.
Moon
In this horary map Moon is owner of 10 (business/job), in the star of Jupiter
and sub of Saturn. Both star lord Jupiter and sub lord Saturn are occupant
of 11 (gain). So Moon is the signiificator of 11 (gain). Thus Moon clearly indicates
the question regarding financial gain from job/business.
Cuspal Sub Lord

2nd Cusp. ( Scorpio 27°.18):
The sub lord of the 2nd cusp is Jupiter. Jupiter is occupant of 11th and also
karaka of money. So 2nd cusp sub lord Jupiter is connected with ll'h. Hence
Moon promises financial gain.
6th Cusp. (Aries 01°,18'):

The sub lord of the 6th cusp is Venus. Venus is in the star of own and sub of

Ruling Planets

Moon. Gemini 23°.48' Mercury Jupiter Saturn
Rahu is in Cancer sign, so it
represents Moon. Ketu is
conjoined with Mercury and
aspected by Jupiter, thus Ketu
represents Mercury and Jupiter.
Hence Moon, Mercury, Jupiter,
Venus, Rahu and Ketu become
the ruling planets.
Joint Period
dasa of Jupiter for llY 5M 8D),
joint period of Jupiter-Saturn-
Jupiter is running up to 27-02-
1981.
Dasa and antra lord Jupiter is
the sub lord of 2nd cusp and also
in the significators. Jupiter is in
the star of Moon and sub of
Saturn. Star lord Moon is owner
of 10th and sub lord Saturn is
occupant of 11th. Thus Jupiter signifies 10th and is connected with 11th.
No planet is in the stars of Saturn, which occupies 11th. Thus Saturn becomes
PRASHNA JYOTISH 175

a strong significator of 11th. Saturn is conjoined with the signifcator and dasa
and antra lord Jupiter.
ln this situation querent will get money during Jupiter-Saturn-Jupiter joint
period.
11'h cusp sub lord Rahu represents Moon, so querent will get money within a
short period. Now let us check transit of Sun. Sun transits from 24-1-1981 in
the star of Moon. Moon becomes a very strong significator of 11th. Sookashma
dasa of Moon is from 22-1-1981 to 2-2-1981. So during Jupiter-Saturn-Jupiter-
Moon period querent will get money.
Generally one can get money during joint period of 2, 6 and 11 significators.
Dasa lords of joint period Jupiter-Saturn-Jupiter-Moon are the significator of
11th. Among them Jupiter and Moon are in the ruling planets (Kanak Bosmia:
Ifwe consider 7 RPs, Saturn is also inclusive.) Saturn is conjoined with Jupiter,
so during this joint period qerent will get money. Actually he got money on
29-1-1981.
Transit
On 29-1-1981 Moon was transiting in Libra and in evening in Scorpio in the
star of Jupiter, dasa-antra lord, Sun was in Capricorn 15°.30' in the star of
Sookshma dasa nath Moon and sub of Jupiter.

Hints
Consider the houses 3 and 11 for wnttng and publication of books. Mercury
indicates writing, Jupiter indicates publication and Mars indicates printing.
If the cuspal sub lords of 3 and 11 be Mercury (writing) or Jupiter (publication)
or if they are the significator (in the star of the occupant or owner) of 3 and
11 and if the star lord of this cuspal sub lord be connected with Mercury and
Jupiter, the querent can write a book and publish it.
During the joint period of the significators of 3 and 11, the book will be written
and published, if thes.e significators are generally connected with Mercury,
Jupiter and Mars (printing).
Moon
In this horary map the sub lord of Moon is Mercury (writing), which owns
house 11 (success) and occupies 3 (publication). So Moon is connected with 3
and 11. Hence it indicates the querent's desire to have success in getting his
writing published.
PRASHNA JYOTISH 177

Cuspal Sub Lord
3rd Cusp (Libra 17°.02'):
Venus. It is in the star of
Jupiter (publications) in 3. The
star lord Jupiter is in conjoined
with Mercury, owner of 11 and
Venus, owner of 3. So Venus is
the strong significator of 3 and
connected with Mercury, Jupiter,
3 and 11. Thus querent will
publish his book. But as the
cuspal sub lord of 3rd (Venus) is
retrograde, the progress for
publication of a book will be
made only after 2-12-1970 when
Venus gets direct in motion.
11th cusp (Gemini 19°.02'):

Moon. It is in the sub of Mercury. Mercury is direct in motion; it owns 11
(success); it is in conjoined with Jupiter, owner of 3 (Venus) and Sun (name).
Thus Moon is connected with 3 and 11 and also with Mercury and Jupiter.

The ruling planets Moon, Ketu, Rahu and Venus are also the strong

Rahu starts from 2-3-1971. During March 1971 printing of book was started.
Antra lord Rahu is in the star of Mars (karaka of printing).
Ruling planet Moon and Venus are the cuspal sub lords of 1l'h and 3rd
respectively; and they are also the strong significators of 3 and 11 as previously
discussed. So the book will be published during the joint period of Moon and
Venus which commences from 3-7-1971. Venus is very strong, so its bhukti
which continues up to 13-10-1971 will be very favourable. Hence during the
joint period of Moon, Venus and Venus the book will be published.
Transit
The querent's book was completely printed during September 1971 when both
Sun and Venus were transiting in Leo in the star of Venus (bhukti-antra lord).
The book was published during October 1971 when Sun was transiting in Virgo

Moon
ln this horary map the husband makes the query about his wife. So consider
the 7th cusp (Gemini 26°.40') as the Asc.
Moon is aspected by wife's Markesh, Badhkesh Jupiter. Moon is also aspected
by wife's 8th lord Saturn. lts sub lord Saturn is in retrograde, which owns
wife's 8 (life), occupies 12 (missing) and very near to cusp of the wife's Asc.
Thus it clearly shows that the query is about the wife who is missing and it
is about her life.

Hints
The 6th house denotes a tenant or lease; the l 2th shows parting with the
possession of land or building or mines and the 11th indicates success or
fulfillment of desire or gain. So for getting the lease of mines from the other
persons, consider the 11th house from the Asc. and 6 and 12 as counted from
the 7th (other person's Asc).
If the cuspal sub lord of the Asc. and/or the J J th is the significator (in the
star of the occupant or owner) of 6, 11 or J 2, one can get a lease during the
Moon
In this horary map Moon is in its own star owning J 2 (6th from 7 i.e. lease)
and occupying 6 (J 2th from 7 i.e. parting with the possession of mines by
Govt.); it is aspected by Mercury, owner of 11. So Moon is the significator of
J 2, 6 and 11. Thus it indicates that the querent desires to get a lease from
the Govt.
182 PRASHNA JYOTISH

Cuspal Sub Lord
Asc. (Leo 03° .00):
The sub lord of the As c. is Sun.
Sun is iri the star of Mercury

and occupies 12; Sub lord
Jupiter is in 6. So Sun is the
significator of 11, 12 and
connected with 6 and 12. Its sub
lord Jupiter is retrograde, so the
lease licence from Govt. will be
promised only when Jupiter
becomes direct in motion i.e.
after 29-9-1973.
11th cusp (Gemini 03°.37'):

The cuspal sub lord of the 11th
is Venus. Venus is in the star of
Sun and sub of Rahu. Star lord
Sun is in conjoined with the ll'h owner Mercury, which is in 12th. Sub lord
Rahu is aspected by Saturn in 11 and owning 6. So Venus is the significator

we consider 7 RPs, Venus is also inclusive.) So the joint period of Moon and
Venus is to be considered as favourable to getting the lease license.
The antra lord Jupiter is retrograde and as discussed earlier we have to omit
Jupiter. The next antra of Saturn after Jupiter will start from 27-8-1973 and
will continue up to 2-12-1973. Saturn is among the ruling planets and it is
also the significator of 6 and 11.
Hence during the joint period of Moon, Venus and Saturn the querent will get

Transit
Sun will transit m Virgo from 12° to 23° in the star of Moon (dasa lord) from
29-9-1973 to 11-10-1973; Venus will be in Scorpio 4° to 9° in the star of

Hints
House 6 indicates loss of opponent (12th from 7th, 7th indicates litigation,
opponent, opposite party and court matter), 11th indicates succesa.
If the cuspal sub lord of the 6th or 11th be the significator (in the star of the

during the joint period of 6, 11.
Sub lord, its star lord, both must be in direct motion.
Moon
In this horary map Moon is aspected by Saturn. Saturn is owner of 7 (litigation)
and 6 (tenant), occupying 9 (house occupied by tenant, 4th from 6th). So Moon
indicates that the question is related to the court case against tenant.
Cuspal Sub Lord

Asc. (Leo 16°.13.20"):
If the sub lord of the Asc. be connected with 7th, one will be involved in court
case. In this horary map Asc. sub lord is Moon. Moon is in the star of Mars
PRASHNA JYOTISH 185

and sub of Ketu. Star lord Mars
is owner of 4 and 9 and
occupant of 3, also aspecting on
7th. The sub lord Ketu is
occupant of 12. So Asc. sub lord
Moon is the strong significator of
4 (house), 3 (loss of house), 9
(occupied by tenant), 7
(litigation), and connected with
12. Thus Asc. sub lord indicates
that the querent is worried about
the court case against tenant.

Venus. Venus is in the star of

Hints
1. In politics or in any field where competltwn is involved, we need to consider
11th cusp for prediction who will win. If 11'h cusp sub lord occupant of 1, 2,
3, 6, 10, 11 or in the star of occupant planets, one can win in election. The
cuspal sub lord and its star lord should be in direct motion.
But if 11th sub lord occupant of 7, 8, 9, 12, 4, 5 or in the star of occupant
planets, one can lose in election.
2. To get high position in politics or any field where competition is involved
we need to consider 11th cusp.
If 11th cusp sub lord be a significator (in the star of the occupant or owner) of
9, 10, 11 and also connected with Mars and Jupiter, then during the joint
period of significaftors of 9, 10, 11, one can get a high position in politics or
in any field where competition is involved.
In politics 9th indicates luck. Jupiter and Mars indicate high position in politics
and 11 fulfillment of desire. lOth indicates position, status and honor.
But if 11th sub lord occupant of 7, 8, 9, 12, 4, 5 or in the star of occupant
planets, one can lose in election.

Moon
Querent is a lady and she asks
as she herself is Shrimati Indira
Gandhi, so I will discuss this
case as if Shrimati Indira Gandhi
herself asks me this question.
In this horary map Moon is in
the star of Venus. Venus owns

question is about wining in
elections.
Cuspal Sub Lord

uu. Cusp. (Pisces 0:.1°.20'):
Rahu. Rahu is in the star of
Mars and sub of Ketu. Rahu
occupies 10. Star lord Mars

Opponent's ll'b Cusp. (5th

IV00:20 su22:13 7th indicates opponent, so 11th
VIII 09:20

Mo[RJ04:20
cusp sub lord is Jupiter.
Ma26:11 Jupiter is in the star and sub
VI 08:20
~-------;------~~~~---~~ of Saturn. Jupiter occupies
opponent's 12 and it is not in
retrograde motion. Thus it indicates loss to opponent. Star lord and sub lord
Saturn occupies the opponent's 6 but in retrograde motion, so the opponent
will not get the result as expected. In other words, the opponent will not be
able to form the government.
Parliament elections were held on 1-3-1971 and the results were declared
between 10-3-1971 to 14-3-1971. Shrimati Indira Gandhi and her Congress
party got a full majority in the elections and formed the government. Shrimati
Indira Gandhi took charge on 19-3-1971 as the Prime Minister.
Joint Period
I. Many times questions are asked about fixing the timing of event, which is
the time when the relevant cusps indicate success or failure and the joint
period lord be the significator of relevant bhava. At the time of the question
joint period lord and its star lord are in retrograde motion, but before the
188 PRASHNA JYOTISH
time of event they turn direct, then event will be fulfilled during that joint
period.
2. At the time ofjudgment (Balance dasa ofVenus for 7Y 1M 15D); the querent
is running the joint period of Venus-Saturn-Saturn which expires on 21-06-
1971. Elections will be held in March 1971, and Venus and Saturn is the
significator of 6, I.
Dasanath Venus is in the star of retrograde Saturn and in the sub of retrograde
Mercury. Bhukti lord and Antra lord Saturn is in retrograde motion and its
sub lord is also Saturn. Mercury turns direct from 8-1-1971 and Saturn turn
direct form 21-1-1971. Joint period lord, its star and sub lord turn direct before
elections. Elections will be held during the same joint period on 1-3-1971. So
the joint period rulers signify 6, 1.
In this horary map the ll'h cusp sub lord indicates success in elections, so
considering the above analysis, during the joint period of 6,1 significators, the
result will be success. Reader may experience himself.

Hints
In cases of competition and contest between two rival parties in any walk of
life viz. cricket match etc., if the cuspal sub lord of the ll'h (success) and that
of the 6th (defeat to the rival) occupy the house 1, 2, 3, 6, 10 or 11 and be in
the star of the occupants of the house 1, 2, 3, 6, 10 or 11, the team under
query will win the cricket match. Final result will depend on the sub lord of
planet.
Note:
Cricket match was running between India and England at Lords in England
during 22-7-1971 to 27-7-1971. On 27-7-1971 the match was very interesting.
My son was listening to the commentary on radio; he asked me, Bhai will
Indian team win this match? (Note from Kanak Bosmia: In my generation people
in Gujarat call father as a Bhai or Kaka or Bapuji). I consider it as if one of
players asked me the question and so I analyzed the chart as per calculated.

Moon
In this horary map Moon occupies
6 (12th from 7th loss of opponent

the question is related to cricket

is Saturn. Saturn is in the star and sub of Moon. Saturn occupies 7. Moon is
occupant of 12 and owner of 10, 11. So England team's 1I lh cusp sub lord is
the significator of 12 and connected with 7, 12, 10 and 11.
6th Cusp. (Pisces 02° .41):

The sub lord of the 6th cusp is Rahu. Rahu is in the star of Moon and sub of
Venus. Rahu is occupant of 4. Star lord Moon is occupant of 12 and sub lord
Venus is in 10. So Rahu is the significator of 12 and connected with l and
10.
In view of the above position both teams' results indicate the same position.
Both cusp sub lords' sub lord is occupant of 10. Thus no one of competing
teams will lose. Both teams' ll'h cusp sub lords also do not indicate a clear
cut picture because the sub lords of both cusps' sub lords indicate winning
and losing in both sides.
This means no one of competing teams will win this match, and actually due
to rain the match was cancelled and declared as draw.

If the cuspal sub lord of 2 or 11 be the significator (in the star of the occupant
or owner) of 2 (movable article which is lost or stolen), 6 (loss to the thief,
being 12 to the 7th -thief) or 11 (regaining), movable property will be regained
during the joint period of the significator of 2, 6 and 11.
Moon
In this horary map Moon is in the star Jupiter and sub of Rahu, Star lord
Jupiter occupant of 12 owning 2 and 11. Sub lord Rahu occupant of l1 1h. So
Moon is the significator of 12 (loss), 2 (lost thing) and 11 (regaining) and
connected with 11.Thus it clearly indicates that the query refers to the loss of

Cuspal Sub lord

11th cusp ( Sagittarius 06° .26):
The 11th cusp is jointly ruled by Jupiter (sign lord), Ketu (star lord) and Rahu
198 PRASHNA JYOTISH
(sub lord). Jupiter is in the 12th,
the 12th house denotes losing or
passing away of a thing. But as
Jupiter in the 12th is retrograde, it
indicates that the thing cannot be
lost.
Jupiter is in the star of Moon and
sub of Mercury. Star lord Moon
owning and occupying 6; So Jupiter
is the significator of 6.
Ketu is in the star of Rahu and sub
of Venus. star lord Rahu in ll; sub
Venus which aspects the 11th cusp.
So Ketu is the significator of 11
and connected with 11.
Rahu is in the star if Venus and
sub of Sun. Rahu is in 11, star
lord Venus which aspects the 11th
cusp; So Rahu is the significator of
11 and connected with 6 and 11.
Thus the cuspal joint rulers of the 11th are also the significators of 6 and 11.
So the lost documents will be regained.

Hints
1)
(i) To get money from others or debt, consider 6th house. Thus if the cuspal
sub lord of the 6th becomes the significator (in the star of the occupant or
owner) of 2, 6 or 11, getting money is promised during the joint period of the
significators of 2, 6, 11.
(ii) To give money to others, investment, freedom from debt, consider 12th. Thus
if the cuspal sub lord of 12 th becomes the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of 5, 8 or 12 freedom from debt is promised during the
joint period of the significators of 5, 8, or 12. Houses 5, 8, 12 are 2, 6, 11
from 7th (opponent) indicating gain to opponent.
During the joint period of planets, which are in the star or sub of Jupiter or
Venus one can be free from debt, especially it is true when Jupiter or Venus
be an owner or occupying 8 or 12.
(iii) 8th cusp indicates money of opponent, thus if 8th cuspal sub lord be the
significator (in the star of the occupant or owner) of 5, 6, 8, 12, one can get
money from other during the joint period of the significators of 5, 6, 8, 12.
iv) 8th cusp indicates money of opponent, thus if 8th cuspal sub lord be the
PRASHNA JYOTISH 201

occupant or owner) of 2, 10, 11
one can get money from other
significators of 2, 10, 11.
2) If 12th cuspal sub lord is
Saturn, then to repay loan/debt
there will be delays or many
hurdles. If Jupiter is the sub
lord, all debt repayments will be
legal. If Mars, person pays debt
after he gets warning form the
financier. If Mercury, the debt
will be paid in installments,
discussions going on about repay
debt and repay debt with the
help of middleman. If Venus,
with very happy and cooperative
manner one repays debt. If Sun,
one can pay by advice of elders,
government officer's advice or order, and if Moon, one can repay debt very
speedily.
If 12th cuspal sub lord is aspected by Saturn , some debt will be remained, or
one can pay by small-small amounts after a gap of time.
Moon
In this horary map Moon is in the star if Jupiter occupies 5 (11th from 7th i.e.
gain to opponent) and owner of 12 (to give money to someone), it is conjoined
with Mars, owner of 8
11&:13:20 (opponent's money). Thus it
indicates that the querent
desires to clear his debt.
Cuspal Sub Lord

Me22:36 8th Cusp (Scorpio 15°.10):
Su 16:13
X 05:10 The sub lord of the 8th cusp
is Jupiter. Jupiter is in the
star and sub of Venus.
Jupiter occupies 5. Star lord
IX 10:10
and sub lord Venus is owner
of 2 and occupant of 11.
Thus 8th cuspal sub lord
Vll16:13:20 Vlll15:10
Jupiter is the significator of 2,
11 and connected with 5 and
12. so the querent will be free from debt.
11th Cusp (Aquarious 03°.10'):

The cuspal sub lord of the 11th is Venus. Venus is in the star of Jupiter and
sub of Saturn. Venus is occupant of 11 and owner of 2. Star lord Jupiter is
the owner of 12 and occupant of 5. Sub lord Saturn is owner of 11 and
202 PRASHNA JYOTISH
occupant of 5. So Venus is the significator of 5, 12 and connected with 2, 5,
11 Hence the querent will be free from debt.
But 8th cusp sub lord Jupiter is in retrograde motion. Jupiter turns direct
from 26-4-1980, sub lord Saturn is retrograde and turns direct from 22-5-
1980, so querent will be free from debt after this period.
Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Jupiter for 6Y 11M lD) the querent
is running the joint period of Jupiter-Venus-Rahu up to 21-3-1980. As we
have discussed above, querent will be free from debt after 22-5-1980. We have
to check Jupiter-Venus-Jupiter (21-3-1980 to 29-7-1980).
Dasa lord and Antra lord Jupiter is the sub lord of 8th cusp. Jupiter is strong
significator of 2 and 11. Bhukti lord Venus is the sub lord of ll'h and
significator of 2, 11. Thus during Jupiter-Venus-Jupiter joint period of 23-5-
1980 to 29-7-1980, transit will agree. And debt will be cleared.
Transit
Sun transits in Taurus from 8-6-1980 in 2nd house and in the star of Mars,
significator of 11. On date 22-6-1980 it transits in Gemini, in the star of Rahu,
significator of 11. Rahu and Ketu are string than any other planet so during
22-6-1980 to 6-7-1980 querent will be free from debt. After that Sun transit
in Gemini from 6-7-1980 i the star of Jupiter thus definitely querent will free
from debt. Actually querent became free from debt on July 1980.

Hints
If 6 or 10 cuspal sub lord becomes the significator (in the star of the occupant
or owner) of 2 (money), 6 (job), 10 (profession), then one can get a job and
earn money during the joint period of 2, 6, 10 significators.
Moon
In this horary map Moon is occupant of 10, aspected by Mars, owner of 2.
Moon is in the star of Venus, occupant of 6. Moon is connected with job,
profession, and money. Thus it indicates querent's desire to get job.
Cuspal Sub Lord

lOth Cusp. (Sagittarius 04° .43):
The sub lord of the lOth cusp is Moon. Moon is in the star of Venus and
sub of Rahu. Moon occupies 10 and owner of 6. Star lord Venus is occupant
of 6. Sub lord Rahu is conjoined with Sun (karaka of job), thus the sub lord
Moon is the significator of 6 and connected with 10, so the querent will get a
job.
204 PRASHNA JYOTISH

6th Cusp (Cancer 27°.43'):
The cuspal sub lord of the 6th is
Moon and own sub of Jupiter. Star
lord Moon is the owner of 6 and
occupant of 10. Sub lord Jupiter is
owner of 10, 11. So 6th cusp sub
lord Jupier is the significator of 6,
10 and connected with 10, 11.
Hence the querent will get a job.
11th Cusp (Sagittarius 29°.43'1:

The cuspal sub lord of the llth is
Rahu. Rahu is in the star of Saturn
and sub of Mercury. Rahu is
conjoined with Sun (karaka of job).
Star lord Saturn is conjoined with
Jupiter, owner of 10, 11. Saturn is
aspects on Mars, owner of 2. Sub
lord Mercury is occupant of 6 and
is conjoined with Sun (karaka of job). So 11th cusp sub lord Rahu is connected
with 2, 6, 10, 11. Hence the querent will get a job and his desire will be
fulfilled.
Ruling Planets
Asc. Aquarius 03°.46' Saturn Mars
Moon. Sagittarius 19°.18' Jupiter Venus
Ketu is in Aquarius and aspected by Mars and Jupiter, thus Ketu represents
the ruling planet Saturn, Mars and Jupiter. Rahu is conjoined with Mercury,
so Rahu represents Mercruy. Hence the ruling planets are Venus, Rahu and
Ketu.

Rahu represents the significator Sun, Moon and Mercury. Ketu represents the
significator Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. Thus Rahu and Ketu are stronger than
other significators. 1n the RPs and significator table we have Rahu, Ketu and
Venus in common. So we consider Rahu, Ketu and Venus as the final

Hints
Any movable things are considered under 2nd house. 7th house indicates
opponent; 6th indicates purchase of movable things (12th from 7th means
opponents sell movable things) and 4th house indicates place of delivery.
If 2nd or 6th or 4th cusp sub lord becomes the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of 6 or 11, then one can purchase movable things during
the joint period of 6, 11. In business dealing this sub lord or its significator
needs to be connected with 4, 7, 10, ll cusp.
Moon
In this horary map Moon is occupies 10 (business related matters). Moon is
in the star of Sun and sub of Mercury. Star lord Sun is karaka of business,
occupies 4 (place of delivery). Sub lord Mercury is karaka of business and
occupies 3rd (discussion). Thus it indicates that the question is related to
business of purchase and delivery of things.
PRASHNA JYOTISH 207

At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Sun for lY 5M 6D), the joint period
of Sun-Mercury-Venus is running from 27-7-1980 to 5-8-1980.
All the joint period rulers are connected with 11 <h cuspal sub lord and Saturn,
owner of 10-11 like Sun is in the star of Saturn. Mercury and Venus are in

Moon
In this horary map Moon is in
the star of Saturn and sub of
Mercury. Mercury is owner of 8th.
Saturn is occupant of 5th and
aspects on 12th and Jupiter,
owner of 12. Thus Moon
indicates that the question is
related to cheating.
Cuspal Sub Lord

12th Cusp (Sagittarius 24°.13):
Mercury. Mercury is in the star
of Venus and sub of Saturn.
Mercury is owner of 8th; star lord
Venus is owner of 5th; sub lord
Saturn is occupant of 5th. So 12th
cusp sub lord Mercury is the

will be cheated.
Joint Period
Incident happened on 27-4-1975 morning. At that time the joint period of
Saturn-Mercury-Mercury was running. Dasanath Saturn is in the star and sub
of Jupiter. Jupiter is owner of 12. Thus Saturn is the significator of 12. We

Hints
For a missing person it always needs to change the Lagna/ Ascendant connected
to the missing person.
Consider the houses 3, 9 and 12 for the missing person, counting from his or
her Ascendant and the houses 2, 8 and 11 (being 12 to 3, 9 and 12) are for
returning home.
If the cuspal sub lord of 12th house becomes the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of 3, 9 or 12, a person runs away during the joint period
of the significators of 3, 9 and 12.
If the cuspal sub lord of 11 lh house becomes the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of 2, 8 or 11, a person returns home during the joint
period of the significators of 2, 8 and 11.
Moon
In this horary map querent asks about his elder brother, so we consider 11th
cusp as elder brother's Asc. and proceed. For convenience each house counted
from the ll th cusp. Moon is owner of 12 (separation from family) of elder
brother. Moon is in the star of Saturn, occupant of 9 (unknown place) of
212 PRASHNA JYOTISH

elder brother and sub lord of
Venus, owner of 3 (away from
home) and 11 (reunion) of the
elder brother. Thus Moon
about the missing of elder
brother from home.
Cuspal Sub Lord

12th Cusp of elder brother
(Cancer 00°.13):
Moon. As discussed above, Moon
is the significator of 9th and
connected with 3, 12. No planets
are in retrograde motion. So the
12th cusp sub lord Moon
indicates missing of the elder
brother.

Joint Period
1) At the time of judgment, (Balance of dasa of Saturn for 9Y 4M 36D), the
joint period of Saturn-Venus-Mercury is running.
All the joint period rulers are the significators of 3, 9 12. Dasanath Saturn is
in the star of Venus, owner of 3rd. Bhukti lord Venus is in the star of Moon,
owner of 12th. Antra lord Mercury is in the star of Saturn, occupant of 9th.
Sookshma dasanath Mars is in the star of Ketu, occupant of 12th and sub of
Saturn, owner of 9th.
The querent's elder brother is missing since 16-3-1971, Tuesday, during this
joint period.
2) At the time of judgment joint period of Saturn-Venus is running; both period
lords are the significators of 2, 8, 11. Saturn is in the star of Venus, owner
of 11 and in the sub of Mercury, occupant of 8 and owner of 2nd.
PRASHNA JYOTISH 213

Bhukti lord Venus is in the star of Moon and conjoined with Jupiter, owner of
8. Its sub lord Sun is occupant of 8th. Thus during joint period of Saturn-
Venus his elder brother will come back home. Dasa nath or Bhukti nath , its
star and its sub are not in retrograde motion.
At the time of judgment Antra lord Mercury is not in the star of owner or
occupant of 2, 8, 11, so Mercury Antra lord does not indicate return of his
elder brother. Next Antra is Ketu. Ketu is in the star of Mercury and sub of
Saturn. Mercury is owner of 2 and occupant of 8. Thus during the joint period
of Saturn-Venus-Ketu from 31-5-1971 to 7-8-1971 his brother will come back
home.
Transit
During this period Sun transits from Taurus to Cancer; it means that Sun
travels only in the star of dasa nath Saturn. On 24-7-1971 Saturday Sun was
transiting in Cancer or .30' in the star of dasa nath Saturn and sub of Antra
lord Ketu. So his brother will come back on that day.
After a long time I was informed that his brother did come back as predicted
on 24-7-1971.

Moon
In this horary map the father asked the query about his son. So consider the
5'h cusp (Sagittarius 09° .55') as the Asc. of the son and proceed. For
convenience each house counted from the 5'h cusp.
Moon is in the star of Saturn and sub of Jupiter. Star lord Saturn owns 2
and 3; it is in the sub of Jupiter occupying the cusp of 12 and near to the
son's Asc. So Moon is the significator of 2 (return of the son), 3 (running
away of the son) and connected with the son's Asc(Self), 12(Missing person).
Hence Moon clearly shows that the query is regarding the return of the son
who ran away from home.
Cuspal Sub lord

Son's Cusp 11 1h (Libra 06°.55'):
It is jointly ruled by Venus (sign lord), Rahu (star lord) and Rahu (sub lord).
Venus is in its own star and Mercury sub. Venus owning 11 and occupying 9;
sub lord Mercury owning 7 and occupying 11 (Reunion). So Venus is the
significator of 11 (reunion), 9 (long tour) and connected with 7 (breakingjourney)
and 11 (reunion). This means that the son must come from long tour by
PRASHNA JYOTISH 215

breaking journey towards home for
reunion.
Rahu is in the star of Sun and sub
of Moon. Star lord Sun is near to
cusp 11 and sub lord Moon owning
8. So Rahu is the significator of II
and connected with 8. This promises
the return of the son for reunion.
Son's Asc (Sagittarius 09°.5 5):

It is jointly operated by Jupiter (sign
lord), Ketu (star lord) and Saturn
(sub lord).
The sign lord of the son's Asc.
Jupiter is in the star of Ketu in 7
(being in Gemini represents Mercury
in 11); it is in the sub Saturn owning
2. So Jupiter is the significator of 7,
11 and connected with 2. Hence the son is on his way to home by breaking
journey. Jupiter's sub lord Saturn being retrograde the son cannot run away
but return homewards.
The star lord of the son's Asc. Ketu is in the star of Jupiter and sub of venus,
Ketu occupies 7; it is in the star Jupiter owning and occupying the Asc (near
to Asc). Sub lord Venus owning 11 and occupying 9. So Ketu is the significator

Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance of Saturn for 9Y 4M 36D) the querent's son
is running the joint period of Saturn, Jupiter, Saturn and Ketu which expires
on 27-10-1972.
These joint period rulers are the significators of 2 and 11 and they are the
cuspal joint rulers of the son's Asc.
Saturn the sub lord of the son's Asc. and the Antra lord is retrograde. So the
son is returning homewards from long tour is indicated by Ketu the sookshma
lord as previously discussed.
After Ketu the sookshma of Venus follows from 27-10-1972 and last up to 21-
11-1972. Venus is the strong significator of 11 as already mentioned in the
earlier paragraphs. Moreover, it is the sign lord of 11 cusp and the sub lord
of 2 and 8. So the querent's son must return home during the joint period of
Saturn, Jupiter, Saturn and Venus.
Transit
It was learnt from the querent's latter that his son returned home on 2-11-
1972 Thursday at 11-45 AM IST
At this time Sun was transiting in Libra 16°.33' in the sub Venus (the sookshma

(return of the son). Star lord Jupiter
is conjoined with Venus, owner of l

aspects on Mars owner of 2nd

Thus Jupiter is connected with son's
2th and 8th. Sub lord Saturn
occupies 8 (return of the son).
Sa turn is conjoined with Mars,
owner of 2 for son and owner of 11
for father. Thus Saturn is connected
with 2, 8. So Venus is connected
with 2 and 8. This means that the
son should come back home and
reunite with father.
Joint Period
dasa of Mercury for SY 2M 3D). the querent's son is running the joint period
of Mercury-Rahu ending on 9-7-1974. Both Mercury's sub lord Mars and Rahu's
sub lord Saturn are connected with 2, 8. Thus his son will come back home
before 9-7-1974. At the time of judgment Mercury-Rahu-Moon joint period is
running up to 16-5-1974. Moon is the significator of 9 and 12, so we will
check the next Mars Antra which starts from 16-5-1974 to 9-7-1974. Mars is
occupant of 2 (family), and father's 11 (reunion). Mars is in the sub of Rahu
and Rahu is the strong significator of 2nd. Rahu is in Scorpio, so represents
Mars. Mars is also in the star and sub of Bhukti nath Rahu.
Mars is the strong indicator of reunion with family and family happiness. Thus
Mars indicates return of son back home. So during the joint period of Mercury-
Rahu-Mars son will come back home.
At the time of judgment Sun is in Aries. Sun later enters into Taurus and
Gemini in the 8th house of son. During the period 8-6-1874 to 21-6-1974 Sun
transits from Taurus 23°.26' to Gemini 06° .00' in the star of Mars, the Antra
nath. During the period 21-6-1974 to 5-7-1974 Sun transits in Gemini 06° .49'
to 19°.13' in the star of Rahu, the Bhukti nath. In the sub lord theory we
consider nodes stronger than other planets. So we consider the time when
Sun transits in the star of Rahu. Tthus during this joint period 22-6-1974 to
5-7-1974 his son will come back.
Actually on 23-6-1974 the querent's son came back home. At that time the
joint period running was Mercury-Rahu-Mars-Ketu during 20-6-1974 to 23-6-
1974. Sookshama dasanath Ketu is in the star of Mars and sub of Saturn. So
Ketu is the strong significator of 2, 8.
Transit
On 23-6-1974 Sun was transttmg in Gemini 08°. 36' in the star of Bhukti
nath Rahu. Moon was transiting in Cancer 26° in the star of Dasanath Mercury.
Mercury was transiting in Gemini 19° in the star of Rahu. Rahu was transiting
in Scorpio 25°.19' and Ketu was transiting in Cancer 25°.19' in the sub of
Rahu. Mars was transiting in Cancer 15° in the star of Saturn, significator of
2 and 8.

Cuspal Sub lord
Son's 11th Cusp (Aries 01°.15'):
11th cusp sub lord is Venus. Venus
is in the star of Mars and sub of
Mercury . Venus owns 1 and 12.
Venus is retrograde, so son will not
runaway but he will come back.
Star lord Mars is owner of 11
(reunion) for son and also owner of
11 for father. Sub lord Mercury is
occupant and owner of 2 (family).
Thus 11th cusp sub lord Venus is
the significator of 11 for both of son
and father and connected with
son's 2. This means that the son
should come back home and have
reunion with father. The cuspal sub
lord Venus is in retrograde motion
and will turn into direct motion from 7-7-1980. So son will come back after 7-
7-1980.
Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Rahu for 13Y 2M 23D), the querent's
son is running the joint period of Rahu-Jupiter- Rahu- Rahu. which ends on
21-06-1980.
Joint period of Rahu-Jupiter- Rahu-Jupiter is from 21-6-1980 to 8-7-1980. Rahu

is in the star of Mercury and sub of Saturn. Rahu is Asc. sub lord of son.
Star lord Mercury is owner and occupant of 2. Sub lord Saturn is owner of
father's Asc and 2. Thus Rahu is the strong significator of father and son's 2.
So reunion of son and father is sure.
Jupiter is in the star of Ketu and sub of Saturn. Jupiter is owner of 8 and
star lord Ketu is in Capricorn sign. So Ketu represents Saturn. Thus Ketu
signifies father's 2nd. Thus Jupiter indicates son's reunion with father.
Son's ll'h cusp sub lord Venus will turn into direct motion from date 7-7-
1980. So his son will come back home during the joint period of Rahu-Jupiter-
Rahu- Jupiter up to 8-7-1980 when transit agrees.
Transit
On 7-7-1980 Sun was transttmg in Gemini 22° in the star of bhukti lord and
sokashma dasanath Jupiter and also in 2nd house. Moon was transiting in
Aries in the 11th house of son. So during the joint period of Rahu-Jupiter-
Rahu- Jupiter his son will come back.
Actually on 8-7-1980 his son came back home. At that time Jupiter was
transiting in Leo 13°.48' in the star of Venus (son's Asc sub lord).

Hints
If the cuspal sub lord of the 4th (land/building) be the significator (in the star
of the occupant or owner) of 4 (land/building), 11 (success/fulfillment of desire)
or 12 (investment), one will have his own building during the joint period of
the significators of 4, 11 and 12 houses.
Both sub lord and its star lord must be in direct motion.
Moon
In this horary map Moon is in the star of Mars and sub of Ketu. Moon owns
4; its star lord Mars aspects the 4th; its sub lord Ketu is in 4. So Moon is the
significator of 4 (building) and connected with Mars (land or building) and 4.
Hence it clearly shows that the query is about the building or house.

and connected with Mars (land or
building), and 12. Neither the
cuspal sub lord Venus nor its
star lord is retrograde. So it
promises a building to the
querent.

The 11th house denotes society.
So if its sub lord is connected
with the 4th house, the querent
will be successful in constructing
a building in the Co-operative

Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Mars for 2Y 5M 210), the querent is
running the joint period of Mars, Ketu and Venus. All these planets are the
significator for 12, investment of money in constructing the house as discussed
above. Joint period of Mars-Ketu has started from 14-5-1971 and continues
up to 11-10-1971. ln between this time the Antra of Mars, Rahu and Mercury
will pass through. Rahu being stronger than any planet should be considered
as Antra lord.
Mars, Ketu and Rahu will jointly operate from 15-7-1971 to 7-8-1971. So the
querent will be successful in constructing the house in the Co-operative society

karaka Mars, the owner of 10.
Star lord Venus is owner of 5.
Hence it clearly shows that the
query is regarding selling the
house.
Cuspal Sub Lord

10th Cusp (Scorpio 01 °.44'):
The sub lord of the lOth cusp is
Rahu. Rahu is in the star and
sub of own. Rahu is in Aquarius
and so is a representative of
Saturn, occupant of 3rd. So 10th
cusp sub lord Rahu is the
significator of 3. So it promises
the sale of house to the querent.
11th Cusp (Scorpio 26°.44'):

Rahu and sub of Sun. Jupiter aspects on 3rd and also aspects on karaka of
wealth Moon and Saturn. As discuss above, star lord Rahu is connected to
3rd. Sub lord Sun is conjoined with owner of 3rd Mars. Thus 11th cusp sub
lord Jupiter is connected with 3rd and karaka of immovable wealth. So the
querent will sell his house and fulfill his desire.
Significtors

Thus strong significators are Mercury, Saturn, Moon and Sun.
Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Venus for 3Y 4M 6D), the querent is
running the joint period of Venus-Mercury. Both period lords are the
significators. So the querent can sell his house during this joint period.
In the joint period of Venus-Mercury first Antra will be Sun. Sun is in the
sub of retrograde Saturn. So we omit it. Next is Moon Antra. Moon is in the
star of dasanath and sub of Bhukti nath. So consider this period.
Venus-Mercury-Moon period runs from 27-4-1971 to 22-7-1971. So during this
joint period the querent's house will be sold.
Only Saturn is left in the significators, so we consider Saturn as a Sookshma
dasa lord. Saturn is in the sub of Antra nath Moon. Thus during Venus-
Mercury-Moon-Saturn joint period from 3-6-1971 to 16-6-1971 the querent's
house will be sold.
Actually on 8-6-1971 the querent sold his house.

Moon
In this horary map Moon is in the star of Venus and sub of Mercury. Moon
owns 4 and occupies 12. Star lord Venus owns l, 2 and occupies 10. Sub
lord Mercury owns 3 and 6. So Moon is the significator of 1 (self), 2 (money),
10 (house to the buyer) and connected with 3 (parting with the house), 6
(gain from others), 4 (house) and 12 (losing the house). Hence it clearly indicates
that the querent intends to sell his house and to gain money there from by
parting with the house.
Cuspal Sub Lord

The sub lord of the lOth cusp is Ketu. Ketu occupies 3. It is in the star of
Saturn owning 10. So Ketu is the significator of 10 and connected with 3, and
it promises the sale of the house. As the star lord Saturn is retrograde, Ketu
cannot give the results of its star lord regarding the sale of the house.
So let us make sure by examining the Asc. (efforts by the querent). the 11th
cusp (success or fulfillment of desire) and the 4th cusp (building of the querent),
if they promise sale of the house.
PRASHNA JYOTISH 233

Asc. Cusp (Taurus 03°.00'):
The sub lord of the Asc. is Saturn.
It is in the star of Sun owning 5 and
in the sub of Mercury owning 3. So
Saturn is the significator of 5 and
connected with 3. Hence the querent
is sure to sell his house. But Saturn,
the sub lord of the Asc, is
retrograde. So the querent has to
wait till Saturn gets direct in motion
and crosses the original point of
retro gradation form where it turned
retrograde. Saturn turned retrograde
on 13°.11' Taurus and it will cross
this point on 5-5-1972 by direct
motion. Hence the event of sale will
happen only after 5-5-1972 during
the joint period of the significators
of 3, 5 and 10.
11th Cusp (Aquarius 19°.48'):

The sub lord of the 11th cusp is Mars. Mars is in the star of Mercury and sub

1 03 00 24 13

its own sub. Mercury owns 3. So it is the significator of 10 and connected
with 3. Venus is in the star of Rahu (representing Saturn owning 10 and Sun
owning 5) and in its own sub (Venus in 10). So it is also the significator of 5,
10 and connected with 10. All these three planets indicate the disposal of the
house.
Ruling Planets

234 PRASHNA JYOTISH
Ketu is in Cancer, so it represents Moon. Thus the ruling planets are Moon,
Mars, Mercury, Venus, Rahu and Ketu.
Moon, Mars, Mercury, Venus and Ketu are the significators of 3, 5 and 10 as
discussed above. Ketu being in the star of retrograde Saturn may be omitted.
Mars being in the sub of Rahu which is not a significator of 3, 5 and 10 may
be omitted. Thus Moon, Mercury and Venus remain as the final significators
of 3, 5 and 10.
Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Venus for 3Y 8M 3D).
As seen from the earlier paragraphs, the event of sale is to occur only after 5-
5-1972. So by this time the joint period of Venus, Mercury and Venus will be
current from 21-4-1972 up to 1-10-1972 and during this interval the Sookshma
period of Moon, the significator, commences on 27-5-1972 and lasts up to 12-
6-1972. Hence the querent will be able to sell his house during these days
when the transit agrees with the joint period ruler or rulers.
Transit
lt was learnt from the querent that he received a cheque of full amount from
the buyer on 28-5-1972 during the joint period of Venus, Mercury, Venus and
Moon.
On that day Sun was transiting in Taurus 14° in the star Moon (sookshma
period ruler); Moon in Scorpio 18° in the star of Mercury (bhukti period ruler)
and Mercury in Taurus 05°.15' in its own sub.

In this horary map Moon owns 10 and occupies 5. Moon is aspected by land
karaka Saturn and building/house karaka Mars. Hence it clearly indicates that
the querent intends to sell his house and to gain money there from by parting
with the house.
Cuspal Sub Lord

10th Cusp (Cancer 00° .13'):
The sub lord of the lOth cusp is Moon. Moon is in the star of Jupiter and sub
of Venus. Star lord Jupiter is conjoined with owner of 3 Mars and owner of 5
Saturn. Jupiter aspects on Moon, owner of 10. Thus 10th cusp sub lord Moon
is connected with 3, 5, 10. So querent's desire of selling the house will be
fulfilled.
11th Cusp (Leo 01°.13):

The sub lord of the ll'h cusp is Venus. Venus is in the star of Mars and sub
of Sun. Star lord Mars owns 3. Sub lord Sun owns 11. So 11th cusp sub lord
Venus is the significator of 3 and connected with 11. Hence the querent will
236 PRASHNA JYOTISH

be able to fulfill his desire by
selling the house.
Joint Period
dasa of Jupiter for 7Y 2M 15D), the
joint period of Jupiter- Venus-Mars

joint period of Jupiter-Venus-Rahu
is from 21-5-1980 to 15-10-1980.
Dasanath Jupiter is in the star of

Moon
In this horary map Moon is in the star of Rahu and sub of Ketu. Star lord
Rahu is in Cancer, so represents Moon, owner of 2, 3 and is conjoined with
Sun, owner of 4; sub lord Ketu is in Capricorn representing Saturn, owner of
10 and aspected by Sun, owner of 4. So Moon is the significator of 2 (money),
4 (house), 3 (parting with the house), and connected with 4 (house) and 10.
Hence it clearly indicates that the querent intends to sell his house and to
gain money there from by parting with the house.
Cuspal Sub Lord

10th Cusp (Aquarius 29° .45'):
The sub lord of the 10th cusp is Moon. Moon is in the star of Rahu and sub
of Ketu. Moon is owner of 3. Star lord Rahu is very near to the 3rd cusp and
also represents owner of 3 Moon. Sub lord Ketu represents Saturn, owner of
10. So lOth cusp sub lord Moon is the significator of 3 and connected with 10.
Hence it clearly indicates that the querent intends to sell his house.
238 PRASHNA JYOTISH

11th Cusp (Aries 03° .45~:
The sub lord of the 11 lh cusp is Moon. We have discussed about Moon above.
Hence it clearly indicates that the querent intends to sell his house and to
gain money there from by parting with the house.
6th Cusp (Scorpio 07° .45~:

The sub lord of the 6th cusp is Ketu. Ketu is in the star of Mars and sub of
Jupiter. 6th cusp indicates tenant. Star lord Mars is owner of 6, 11 and occupant
of 4. Sub lord Jupiter is occupant of 3. So 6th cusp sub lord Ketu is the
significator of 4, 11 and connected with 3. Hence it clearly indicates that the
tenant will be beneficial to querent by means of buying the house and paying
money for that.
Ruling Planets
Asc. Leo 08° .04' Sun Ketu
Moon Aquarius 14°. 34' Saturn Rahu
At the time of judgment Rahu is conjoined with Sun, so Rahu represents Sun.
Ketu is in Capricorn, so it represents Saturn. Thus the ruling planets are
Sun, Mercury, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu. But Rahu and Ketu are more powerful
-----
than other planets.
Joint Period
dasa of Rahu for of 7Y 4M OD), the
running joint period is Rahu-Ketu
up to 18-6-1981.
Rahu is in the star of Mercury and
sub of Jupiter. Star lord Mercury
is aspected by owner of 10 Saturn.
So Mercury is connected with 10.
Sub lord Jupiter is occupant of 3.
Thus dasa lord Rahu is connected
with 10, 3 and also in the ruling
planets.
Bhukti nath Ketu is in the star of
Mars and sub of Jupiter. Star lord
Mars aspects on 10th and is
conjoined with owner of 10 Saturn.
Sub lord Jupiter is occupant of 3.
Thus Ketu is the significator of I 0 and connected with 3. Ketu is also in the
ruling planets. So during Rahu-Ketu joint period querent's intention to sell his
house will be fulfilled.
Ruling planet Mercury is in the star of Jupiter and own sub. We have discussed
about Mercury and Jupiter. Mercury is the significator of 3 and connected
with 10. Thus during the joint period Rahu-Ketu-Mercury from 24-4-1981 to
PRASHNA JYOTISH 239

"'--------1------+-------~ Venus is the cusp sub lord of
tenant's 12 (Libra 03°.45') and also owner of his 12. This 12 indicates
investment of money. Venus is in the star of Mars and sub of Mercury. Star
lord Mars is occupant of 11 of tenant and conjoined with owner of 4 Saturn.
Sub lord Mercury is aspected by owner of 4 Saturn. Thus Venus is the
significator of 11 and connected with 4, 12 of tenant. So tenant bought the
house.
Venus is also owner of 12 of querent, indicating querent's parting with the
house. Venus is in the star of Mars and sub of Mercury. Star lord Mars is
owner of 11 of querent and aspects on 10, and is conjoined with owner of 10
Saturn. Sub lord Mercury is conjoined with owner of 12 Venus and aspected
by owner of 10 Saturn. Thus Venus is the significator of 10, 11 and connected
with 10, 12. So this indicates sale of house and gain of money.

Hint
Tenant is signified by 6th house. A house under possession of tenant is signified
by 9'h (4th from 6th is 9'h); 8th istenant's 3rd (parting with the house), which
means to give back possession to the owner. Thus if 6th cusp sub lord be the
significator (in the star of the occupant or owner) of 6 and 8, tenant vacates
the house during the joint period of the significators of 6, 8.
Before giving any prediction, we need to be very careful in judging all the
aspects of a chart.
Moon
Jn this horary map Moon is in the star of Saturn and sub of Jupiter. Star
lord Saturn is owner of 6 and occupant of 12. Sub lord Jupiter is owner of 4
and occupant of 11. So Moon is the significator of 6 (tenant), 12 (worries) and
connected with 4 (house), II (desire to get house back). Hence it clearly
indicates that the querent intends to get possession of the house from tenant.
PRASHNA JYOTISH 241

Rahu. Rahu is in the star of Venus

is connected with 6 and 8. Star
lord Venus is owner of 9. Sub lord
Mars is owner of 8 and occupant
of 9. Mars aspects on Saturn owner
of 6. So 6th cusp sub lord Rahu is
the significator of 9 and connected
with 6, 8, 9. Sub lord is supreme
to give the result and as the sub
lord Mars strongly signifies 6 and
8, it clearly indicates that the querent will get possession of the house from
tenant.

clearly indicates that the querent will get possession of the house from tenant.
Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Saturn for 2Y 5M lOD), the running
joint period is Saturn-Jupiter up to 26-12-1981.
Dasa lord Saturn is owner of 6 (tenant) in the star of Venus owner of 2, 9,
who aspects on 4th, also sub of Moon owner of 11 and occupant of 7 (2nd for

Bhukti nath Jupiter is owner of 4th and occupants of 11. Jupiter is in the star

So during Saturn- Jupiter joint period querent will get possession of the house.
As discussed before, Rahu is the significator of 6 and 8. During the joint period
242 PRASHNA JYOTISH
of Saturn-Jupiter-Rahu from 9-8-1981 to 26-12-1981 when transit agrees, the
querent will get possession of the house. Actually on 24-8-1981 the tenant
vacated the house and the querent got possession as per his desire.
Transit
On 24-8-1981 Sun was trans1tmg in Leo 07°.42' in the sub of Bhukti nath
Jupiter. Saturn was transiting in Virgo 14°.20' in the sub of Jupiter. Jupiter
was transiting in Virgo sign 16°.44' in the sub of dasa nath Saturn. Rahu was
transiting in Cancer sign 06°.34' in the star of Saturn. Moon was in Gemini

In this horary map the father

VIII 03:45
VII 04:45 Ju 02:46 marriage of his daughter. So
consider the 5th house as the
Asc. for the daughter and proceed. For convenience each house counted from
the 5th cusp.
Moon occupies the Asc. of the daughter. Moon is in the star of Mercury and
244 PRASHNA JYOTISH
sub of Saturn. Star lord Mercury
owns 7 and sub lord Saturn
occupies 2. So it is the significator
of 7 (marriage of the daughter) and
connected with 2 (family life). Thus
Moon clearly indicates that the
query refers to the marriage of the
querent's daughter.
Cuspal Sub Lord

Cusp (Virgo 04°.45':
7th
The sub lord of 7th cusp is Saturn.
It occupies 2 and owner of 11. It
is in the star of Venus (natural
significator of marriage) and in the
sub of Mercury owning 7. So
Saturn is connected with 2, 7, 11.
Both the cuspal sub lord Saturn

Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Mercury for 1Y 2M 16D), the querent's
daughter is running the joint period of Mercury and Saturn. They are among
the significators. Now we have to select Antra out of the remaining significators
Mars, Jupiter and Rahu. Rahu being stronger than any other significator should
PRASHNA JYOTISH 245

be considered as Antra lord.
Thus we have to consider the joint period of Mercury, Saturn and Rahu which
starts from 8-12-1970 and lasts up to 3-5-1971. So the querent's daughter
will get married during this joint period when the transit agrees.
Transit
During the time from 8-12-1970 to 3-5-1971 Sun will first transit m the star

Cuspal Sub Lord

Elder sister's 7th Cusp (Sagittarius 28° .21):
The sub lord of 7th cusp is Moon. Moon is in the star of Ketu and sub of
PRASHNA JYOTISH 247
Rahu. Moon is owner of 2; star lord Ketu is in Cancer, so represents owner of
2"d Moon; sub lord Rahu is occupant of 7. Thus 7th cusp sub lord signifies 2
(addition in family) and is connected with 7 (marriage) and 2. Thus marriage
of elder sister is promised.
Elder sister's 11 1h Cusp (Aries 26°.21'):

The sub lord of 11th cusp is Ketu. Ketu is in the star of Saturn and sub of

Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Ketu for 3Y !OM 9D), the querent's
elder sister is running the joint
period of Ketu-Rahu lasting up to
11-2-1973.
Dasa nath Ketu is the cusp sub
lord of 11th and the significator and
also in the ruling planets. Bhukti
nath Rahu is the strong
significator. Nodes are stronger
than other planets; so marriage will
take place during Ketu-Rahu joint
period.
Among the rest of significators we
have to select Antra nath. At the
time of query, Jupiter Antra is
running up to 10-5-1972. Next one
is Saturn up to 10-7-1972. Between
Jupiter and Saturn, Saturn is
PRASHNA JYOTISH
stronger because Saturn is the star lord of dasa nath and in the sub of owner
of 2nd and Jupiter is the sub lord of owner of 12.
Thus during the joint period of Ketu-Rahu-Saturn from 10-5-1972 to 10-7-
1972 marriage of elder sister is promised. Actually during Ketu-Rahu-Saturn-
Ketu from 27-5-1972 to 30-5-1972, on 29-05-1972 his elder sister was married.

Moon is in the star of Venus. Star lord Venus is owner of 7 and conjoined

Thus Moon clearly indicates that the query refers to the marriage.
Cuspal Sub Lord

7th Cusp (Taurus 08°.06'.40"):
The sub lord of 7th cusp is Venus. Venus is natural karaka of marriage. Venus
is owner of 7 and conjoined with Jupiter, owner of 2 (family). Thus querent's
marriage is promised. 7th cusp sub lord Venus is in retrograde but will become
direct in motion from 13-2-1974; so the querent will get married after 13-2-
1974.
11th Cusp (Virgo 14°.42'):

The sub lord of 11th cusp is Jupiter. Jupiter is conjoined with Venus, owner of
7. Jupiter is owner of 2 and aspects on 7th. Jupiter is also in the movable
sign; so querent's marriage is promised and fulfillment of desire will happen

Joint Period

Dasa nath Venus is natural karaka
of marriage. Generally when the sub
lord becomes a natural karaka of
the relevant bhava, the result will
be given during the joint period of
its star lord and sub lord. In this
case dasa nath Venus is in the star
of Moon and running Bhukti is also
Moon. Thus during the Venus-Moon
joint period querent will get married.
Bhukti nath Moon is in the star of
Venus and Venus is in the star of
Moon; so Venus and Moon are supplementary to each other.
As we have discussed above querent will be married after 13-2-1974 when
Venus turns direct; thus he will be married during this joint period till 24-3-
1974.

Now during the joint period of Venus-Moon-Sun-Mercury from 14-3-1974 to
18-3-1974 querent will get married.
Actually the querent got married on 18-3-1974.
In this case all the joint period lords (dasa nath Venus- Bhukti nath Moon-
Antra nath Sun and Sookshama dasa nath Mercury) are in each other's star
or sub. They all are also the significator of marriage; thus querent got married
during its joint period speedily. Dasa nath Venus is in the star of Bhukti nath
Moon, Bhukti nath Moon is in the star of dasa nath Venus. Antra nath Sun
is in the sub of Bhukti nath Moon. Readers have to experience this and think
about all the aspects as per your experience.

In this horary map Moon occupies 7 and it is aspected by the owners of 7
(Jupiter), 11 (Mars) and natural karaka Venus. Thus Moon clearly indicates
that the querent is very eager to know about his marriage.
Cuspal Sub Lord

7th Cusp (Sagittarius 28°.46'.40"):
1) The sub lord of the 7th cusp is Mars. It is in its own star and sub of Moon.
Star lord Mars owns 11 and aspects 7th. Sub lord Moon owns 2 and occupies
7. Thus the cuspal sub lord of 7th is the significator of 11, 7 and connected
with 2 and 7. Hence it promises marriage. None of them is retrograde.
2) Consider the 7th cusp as the Asc. of the marriage partner. Now as counted
from the 7th cusp, Pisces 22°. 10' (lOth cusp of the horary chart) becomes the
4th cusp (education) for the marriage partner. Its sub lord is Sun; it owns the
9th (higher education) of the marriage partner; it is in the star of Mercury and
in the sub of Venus; star lord Mercury is natural karaka of education; sub
lord Venus owns 11 of the marriage partner. All these three planets are in
conjunction with Jupiter owning 4 of the marriage partner. Thus the cuspal
252 PRASHNA JYOTISH

sub lord of 4th of the marriage
partner is connected with
Mercury, Jupiter, 4, 9 and 11.
Sun, Mercury and Jupiter are in
Cancer which is on the 8th cusp
of the marriage partner and all
of them are aspected by Moon,
the owner of 8 (medicine,
pharmacy, chemicals;
microbiology and such other
subjects correlated with the 8th
house) for the marriage partner.
Hence the marriage partner's
education might be connected
with these subjects. Further Sun
and Jupiter have connection with
medicine.
3) The disposition of the marriage
o:--------t=====::+-------~partner may be learnt from the
l'- cuspal sub lord of the 7th is
Mars. So Mars (aggressive) in
Gemini signifies impulsive but
adaptable nature. Thus
marriage partner will be

Joint Period
1) At the time of judgment
Ra 18:13 vn2B:46:4o (Balance dasa of Sun for lY 3M
So 19:34
11120:10 12D), the querent is running
the joint period of Sun and
v 26:10 Vl28:32 Ketu which will last up to 19-
11-1979.
So far as the education of marriage partner is concerned, the period ruler Sun
is the cuspal sub lord of 4 (education for the marriage partner); while the sub
period ruler Ketu is the cuspal sub lord of 11 (success in education to the
marriage partner). Ketu is in the star of Rahu in 8 (end of education) and in
the sub of Venus owning 11 (success in education) for the marriage partner.
So the marriage partner will be completing her studies before 19-11-1979.
2) The joint period of Sun, Venus starts from 19-11-1979 and continues up to
19-1-1980. Dasa nath Sun, its star lord Mercury and its sub lord Venus are
all conjoined with Jupiter, the owner of 7, in 2 and aspected by Moon, owner
of 2, in 7. So Sun becomes the significator of marriage. Venus is in the star
of Saturn and in the sub Jupiter. So far as the querent is concerned the star
lord Saturn occupies 2 and the sub lord Jupiter owns 7 and occupies 2. So
as far as the marriage partner is concerned the star lord Saturn owns 2 and
aspects the 11th; while the sub lord Jupiter is in conjunction with Venus owning
11. Thus the sub and the inter period ruler Venus is fruitful to both of them
for getting married. This joint period of Sun-Venus-Venus from 19-11-1979 to
PRASHNA JYOTISH 253
19-1-1980 is likely period of marriage.
3) The querent informed me that the girl of his choice was very impulsive and
she was an M.B.B.S student. Her examination was over on 6-11-1979. She
passed her M.B.B.S examination in December 1979. They both moved together
as man and wife from 22-12-1979. It was learnt that he secretly married the
girl on 23-1-1980 during the joint period of Sun, Venus and Sun.
At the time of judgment Mercury, star lord of Sun was retrograde (it turned
direct from 11-8-1979, hence the marriage) and Saturn, star lord of Venus
was in conjunction with Rahu in 2. Hence celebration of marriage was not in
a usual way.
Transit:
On 23-1-1980 Sun was transttmg in Capricorn 9° in its own star Sun (Dasa-
Antra nath) and sub of Bhukti nath Venus.

of Rahu and sub of Jupiter. Both of star lord Rahu and sub lord Jupiter is
PRASHNA JYOTISH 255

occupant of father's 5; thus
question is about his daughter.
Cuspal Sub Lord

Daughter's 7th Cusp (Capricorn
23°.37):
Mars. Mars is in retrograde
motion. Question is limited to
end of March, and during that
time Mars does not turn direct
in motion but turn direct on 7-
4-1980. Thus there is no chance
of his daughter's marriage during
March.
Father's 11th Cusp (Capricorn

23°.37):
The sub lord of the 11tn cusp is Mars. Mars is in retrograde motion. As
discussed above, there is no chance of his daughter's marriage during March.
Actually the boy came to his home but he does not like his daughter; thus
daughter's 7th cusp sub lord is retrograde and question is also for limited time
and during that time 7th cusp sub lord does not turn direct; so his daughter
does not get married with this boy. His 11th cusp sub lord is also retrograde;
so his desire of his daughter's marriage with the boy did not happen.

Hints
1) lf the cuspal sub lord of the 5th (love relation) be the significator (in the
star of the occupant or owner) of 7 (marriage) or I 1 (permanent relationship),
love marriage is promised.
Sub lord and its star lord must be in direct motion.
If 5th cusp sub lord be the significator (in the star of the occupant or owner)
of 6 or 12, then there is no marriage with person whom he/she loves.
If 5th sub lord be the significator (in the star of the occupant or owner) of 6,

should be in direct motion; if they are in retrograde motion, then marriage
can only happen when retrograde planet turns direct.
PRASHNA JYOTISH 257

lf star lord of sub lord is in
retrograde, one cannot marry
with whom he/she loves.
lf both sub lord and its star lord
are in retrograde, querent will
never get married.
lf 5th sub lord be the significator
owner) of 6, native himself
breaks the relationship, and if it

relationship.
Moon
ln this horary map Moon is in
the star of Jupiter. Star lord
Jupiter is occupant of 5 and
owner of 7 and conjoined with
Venus, the owners of 5. Thus
Moon clearly indicates that the
querent is very eager to know about love marriage.
XI 01:44 Cuspal Sub Lord

Sa[R] 22:33 5th Cusp (Libra 01 •.44'):

Mo24:18 The sub lord of the 5th cusp

No planet is in the stars of

Mercury is in the star of Ketu,

with the girl whom he loves.
Not only that, but the girl also broke the relationship herself. Actually the girl
got married with another boy.
7th Cusp (Sagittarius 08 .40):

The sub lord of the 7th cusp is Jupiter. Jupiter is in the star and sub of
Saturn. Jupiter is owner of 7 and occupant of 5. Star and sub lord Saturn is
occupant of 11. Thus the cuspal sub lord of 7th signifies 11 and is connected
with 5, 7. But star and sub lord Saturn is in retrograde. Hence there is no
chance of marriage with the girl whom he loves. Actually the girl married with
another boy and so he was not married with the girl whim he loved.
In this case we can see the strong effect of the retrograde planet.

Moon
In this horary map Moon is occupant of 1 and aspects 7th (marriage). Moon is
PRASHNA JYOTISH 259
aspected by Saturn, owner of 5 (love
relation). Moon is in the star and
sub of Jupiter. Star and sub lord
Jupiter is conjoined with Venus
(natural karaka of marriage) and
Sun, owner of 11 (preeminent

indicates that the querent is very

Cuspal Sub Lord
7th Cusp (Aries 18 •. 06'.40"):

The sub lord of the 7th cusp is Rahu.
Rahu is in the star of Venus and

Ruling Planets
As c. Aquarius 29M5' Saturn Jupiter
Moon Libra 20°.21' Venus Jupiter
At the time of judgment Rahu is conjoined with Saturn and Ketu is in Aquarius;
thus both Rahu and Ketu represents Saturn. Rahu is in the star of Venus.
Hence the ruling planets are Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Rahu and Ketu.
Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Jupiter for 15Y 6M 29D), the querent
260 PRASHNA JYOTISH

was running the joint period of Jupiter- Jupiter. Jupiter is in the sub of Mars
owner of 2, 7. Jupiter is the sub lord of 11 and in the ruling planets. So
during this joint period love marriage is promised.
Rahu represents Saturn and Venus. The ruling planets are given above and
we consider Rahu against Saturn and Venus. Now in the ruling planets we
have Mercury which is in the star of Saturn, owner of 5. Thus Mercury is the
significator of 5 and we select Mercury and Rahu as joint period.
In the Jupiter- Jupiter joint period, after antra dasa Jupiter, next antra is
Saturn. But we have discussed above and we consider next Mercury antra.
The joint period of Jupiter- Jupiter- Mercury is running from 14-101979 to 3-
2-1980, when querent gets married.
Actually during the joint period of Jupiter- Jupiter- Mercury- Rahu from 14-
10-1979 to 3-2-1980, on 29-12-1979 querent had love marriage.

Moon
In this horary map the brother put the query about the marriage of his younger
sister. So consider the 3rd house as the Asc. for the sister and proceed. For
convenience each house counted from the 3rd cusp. In this horary map for
brother, Moon is conjoined with Mars, owner of 3. Thus Moon clearly indicates
that the query is regarding younger sister. Moon is in the star of Sun and
sub of Mercury. Consider the 3rd house as the Asc. for the sister and both
star lord Sun and sub lord Mercury are occupant of 7 (marriage). Thus query
is clearly regarding marriage of younger sister.
Cuspal Sub Lord

Younger sister's 7th cusp (Taurus 25° .03'):
Younger sister's 7th cusp sub lord is Rahu. Rahu is in the star of Saturn and
sub of Venus. Rahu is conjoined with owner of 7 Venus, which is also the
sub lord. Venus is natural karaka of marriage. Rahu is natural karaka of inter
cast/ inter state/ inter country/ inter religious relation and also indicates
Muslim religion. Thus marriage with a Muslim takes place. Star lord Saturn is
262 PRASHNA JYOTISH
owner of 3 (away from home),
conjoined with Jupiter, owner of
2 (family). Sub lord Venus is
owner of 12 (unknown place) and
7 (marriage). Thus younger
sister's 7th cusp sub lord Rahu
is the significator of 3, 12 and
connected with 12, 2, 7. Rahu is
also connected with Venus. So it
is clear that his sister ran away
from home with a Muslim boy for
marriage.
Younger sister's Asc. (Scorpio

25° .03):
Younger sister's Asc sub lord is
also Rahu. Thus it tallies with
what we have discussed above
that his younger sister ran away
with a Muslim boy for marriage.
Joint Period
l. At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Sun for l Y 9M 23D), the querent
was running the joint period of Sun-Mercury-Moon from 16-6-1981 to 12-7-
1981.
2. Querent heard that his younger sister married a Muslim boy on 18-6-1981.
Now let us check what indication was given by the joint period lords. Marriage
takes place during the joint period lords of 2, 7, 11. 7th cusp sub lord indicates
the querent's sister's marriage, thus we will check the joint period lords.
3. Dasanath Sun is in the star of Rahu and sub of Mercury. Star lord Rahu
is conjoint with younger sister's 7th owner Venus. Sub lord Mercury is owner
of 11 and occupant of 7. The deciding factor is sub lord and so dasanath
indicates marriage.
Bhukti nath Mercury is in the star of Mars and sub of Venus. Star lord Mars
is owner of 1, 6 and very near to 7th cusp. Mars is aspected by Jupiter, owner
of 2. Sub lord Venus is owner of 7. The deciding factor is sub lord and so
Bhukti na th also indicates marriage.
As we have discussed above about Moon, the Antra Moon is a strong significator
of marriage. Thus during the joint period of Sun-Mercury-Moon from 16-6-
1981 to 12-7-1981, the clear indication is about his younger sister's marriage.
It means we can say that his sister was already married during this period.
4. Moon is transiting on 18-6-1981 in Sagittarius r to 13o in the star of Ketu.
In this horary map Ketu is transiting in the star of Sun, occupant of 7 and in
the sub of Venus, owner of 7. So Ketu is the very strong significator of 7.
Thus during this time Moon promised marriage and his sister married on 18-
6-1981.

Ra09:32
IX 27:03
Ko09:32 querent's Asc, Mercury is in
the star of Mars, owner of 3.
No planet is occupant of 3
and 11. Thus Mercury is the
X 28:03 1126:03
significator of 3 and Mars is
the significator of 11 when
Xll25:03 125:03 Moon passes on Mars (Taurus
23°. 15') on 30-6-1981 or when
Moon passes on Mercury (Gemini 03°.38') on 1-7-1981; so during this time
news would be heard about his younger sister.
2) When transit Moon passes over the Deg/Min/Sec of the significator of 3, on
that day querent gets news about the missing person.
ln this horary map from querent's younger sister bhava, 3rd bhava significators
are Venus and Rahu (both are in the star of Saturn, sister's 3rd owner).
Thus when Moon passes on Venus (Cancer 05°.28') and Rahu (Cancer 09°.32')
on 3-7-1981 querent got news about his sister.
Actually he had registered a police complaint, and he was informed by police
that his sister and Muslim boy were present in police station on 3-7-1981.
Love Marriage
Younger Sister's 5th Cusp (Pisces 26° .06'.40"1:
Younger sister's 5th cusp sub lord is Jupiter. Jupiter is in the star of Sun and
sub of Venus. Jupiter is owner of 5 (love) and 2 (family). Star lord Sun is
occupant of 7 and conjoined with Mercury, owner of 11. Sub lord Venus is
owner of 7 and conjoined with Rahu natural karaka of inter cast/inter state/
inter country linter religious relation and also indicates Muslim religion. Thus
marriage took place with a Muslim as indicated by 7th realted with Rahu
(Muslim). Thus younger sister's 5th cusp sub lord is Jupiter which is a strong
significator of 7 and connected with 2, 5, 7, 11 and also Venus and Rahu. So
we could predict that his sister was in love and married with a Muslim boy.
Some Interesting Points in This Horary Map

From younger sister's Asc, Sun, Moon and Venus are in the sub of retrograde
Mercury. Mars is in the sub of Sun, occupant of 7 and owner of 10. Mercruy,
Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu are in the sub of Venus, owner of 7 and 12.
Thus marriage and separation, despair are the main indication in this horary
map. All the sub lords signify marriage and divorce too.
Especially the sub lord of Mars is Sun and Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu
and Ketu are in the sub of Venus. both sub lord Sun and Venus are lastly in
the retrograde sub Mercury; thus we can assume that finally the result will be
nagative.
Joint Period
1. At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Sun for l Y 9M 23D), the querent
264 PRASHNA JYOTISH

was running the joint period of Sun-Mercury-Moon from 16-6-1981 to 12-7-
1981. After that Sun-Mercury-Mars joint period starts from 12-7-1981 to 30-
7-1981. Mars is owner of 1 and 6 of sister which indicates no satisfaction in
married life. Its star lord Moon is occupant of 6. Its sub lord Sun is owner of
10. Thus Mars is the strong significator of 6 and connected with 10. So during
Mars Antra she can't be able to enjoy married life. Actually his sister came
back to her father's house on 17-7-1981.
2. Let us check dasanath and Bhukti nath with other aspects. Sun is owner
of 10; its star lord Rahu is occupant of 8 and conjoint with Venus, owner of
12. Its sub lord Mercury is retrograde and owner of 8. Bhukti nath Mercury
is owner of 8; its star lord Mars is owner of 1, 6 and sub lord Venus is owner
of 12 and occupant of 8. House 8 indicates despair, house 12 indicates
separation, 1, 10, 6 houses indicate absence of married life. The final decision
is upon the sub lord and both sub lords indicate separation and despair.
Dasanath Sun is owner of 10 and indicates absence of married life. Bhukti
nath Mercury is owner of 8 and so indicates despair. Star lord of dasanath
and Bhukti nath also indicate despair and absence of married life. Thus this
marriage turns into separation and despair. During Sun-Mercury joint period
up to 15-12-1981 his sister separated from the Muslim boy.
3. Saturn is occupant of 10 and owner of 10 of girl's husband. Its star lord
Sun is owner of 10 of his sister and occupant of Asc of her husband. Its sub
lord Venus is owner of 12 of his sister and owner of 1, 6 for her husband. So
Saturn indicates despair and absence of married life during Sun, Mercury,
and Saturn joint period from 27-10-1981 to 15-12-1981 and so they will
separate and take divorce. His younger sister is still at his father's house and
separated from the Muslim boy.

Hints
If the sub lord of the 5th cusp (female) or the 11th cusp (male) is the significator
(in the star of the occupant or owner) of 2 (increase in family), 5 (conception,
child) or II (5th from 7) or connected with 2, 5 or II, child birth is promised.
If it is the significator of I, 4 or 10 (being 12th from 2, 5 and 11), child birth
is not promised during the joint period of 2, 5, 11.
Sun, Mars and Jupiter are male planets and Moon, Venus, and Rahu are female
planets. Mercury and Ketu are neuter gender. Odd number sign indicates male
and even number sign indicates female. However, it is most difficult to predict
child gender.
Moon
In this horary map Moon is in the star of Venus and sub of Jupiter. Both
Jupiter and Venus are natural karaka of child birth. Star lord Venus is
occupant of 2 and conjoined with Moon, delivery karaka. Sub lord Jupiter is
occupant of 5. Thus it indicates that the querent's question is related to child
birth.
268 PRASHNA JYOTISH

Cuspal Sub Lord
Ketu and sub of Jupiter. Venus
occupies 2. Star lord Ketu
represents Venus by being in
Taurus sign and is also aspected
by Sun, owner of 11. So it
represents Sun. Thus Ketu
signifies 2, 11. Sub lord Jupiter

Jupiter and Venus. So the

significator of 5. Venus-Jupiter-Saturn-Saturn joint period is running from 23-
12-1974 to 17-l-1975. Saturn is in retrograde motion. So she will have some
difficulties in delivery and also take long time in child birth.
Next Venus-Jupiter-Saturn-Mercury is running from 17-1-1975 to 8-2-1975.
Mercury is in the star of own occupying 2 and in sub of Jupiter, occupant of

this joint period she will deliver child. Actually on date 30-l-1975 she delivered
a baby boy.

On 30-l-1975 Sun was transiting in Capricorn 17° in the sub of Antra nath

Jupiter. Jupiter was transiting in Aquarius 25° .37' in the own star. Venus

Predicting the gender of a child is always difficult. In this case 5th cusp sign
lord is Saturn. Saturn is in the star of Jupiter and sub of own. Saturn is in
odd sign Gemini and occupant of odd house 9. Saturn was aspected by Mars
and Jupiter, male planet. Star lord Jupiter is in odd sign Aquarius and occupant
of odd house 5; Jupiter is male planet; thus we can say she will deliver a
baby boy.

In this horary map the husband put the query about his wife. So consider the
7tlt cusp as the Asc. for the wife and proceed. For convenience each house
counted from the 7th cusp. Moon is in the star of own and sub of Saturn.
Star lord Moon is occupant of 7 (Badhaka) and owner of 2 (increase in family).
Sub lord Saturn is owner of 8 (longevity, death) and occupant of Asc (health,
longevity). Moon and Saturn aspect each other. Thus it indicates that the
querent's question is related to child birth and her longevity, because Moon is
querent's owner of 8 (tension) and occupant of Asc.
Cuspal Sub Lord

Wife's Asc. Cusp (Gemini 17° .20):
Wife's sub lord of the Asc is Venus. Venus is in the star of Ketu and sub of
own. Star lord Ketu is occupant of 11. Sub lord Venus is owner of 5. Thus
Asc sub lord Venus is the significator of 11 and connected with 5. Thus it is
clear that there is no harm to wife's longevity.
Star lord Ketu is conjoined with Mars, owner of 6 (disease) and 11 (delivery,
cure). Sub lord Venus is owner of 5 (child birth), 12 (hospital) and occupant
PRASHNA JYOTISH 271
of 2 (increase in family). Venus is aspected by Mars. Thus Asc sub lord Venus
is connected with 2, 5, 11, 6 ,12 and Mars; so delivery will be cesarean and
hospital and illness are indicated.
Wife's 8th Cusp (Capricorn

21°.07'}: The cuspal sub lord of the
8' is also Venus. Thus as
discussed above, his wife's delivery
will be cesarean and hospital and
illness are indicated.
Wife's 5th Cusp (Libra 28° .07):

The cuspal sub lord of the 5th is
Venus. Venus is retrograde. Venus
own. Star lord Ketu is occupant of
11 and sub lord Venus is occupant
of 2 and owner of 5. Venus is in
retrograde motion. Venus is karaka
of pregnancy, and significator of 11
and connected with 5. So it is sure
"r<::------:-:--t------+------~71 that she is pregnant.

and owner of 12 and 8. Thus it is clear that child may be dead; let us say
that at the time of question the child was death in womb.
Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Moon for 5Y 9M OD), the joint period
of Moon-Saturn-Saturn was running. Both Moon and Saturn are connected
with Badhaka and I ,8, indicating danger to wife.
Actually on 20-9-1975 night his wife was admitted in hospital and the doctor
declared that the child was dead and it needed to remove the child immediately
by operation. At that time of operation Moon was in Pisces 6° in the star of
Saturn and sub of Mercury. In horary map Saturn signifies wife's I and 8.
Mercury was the string significator of 12, 6, 11 and conjoined with Mars. So
the operation was done and the dead child was separated from mother.

Cuspal Sub Lord

Wife's 5th Cusp (Cancer 08° .38):
The sub lord of the 5th cusp is Venus. Venus is karaka of conception. Venus
PRASHNA JYOTISH 273
is conjoined with Saturn, owner of 11. Venus is in the star of own and sub of
Saturn. Saturn is occupant of 5 and owner of 11. Thus 5'h cuspal sub lord
Venus is connected with 5, 11 and karaka of conception Venus. So the querent
will have child birth for sure.
Wife's 11 1h Cusp (Capricorn 08° .38):

The sub lord of the 11th cusp is Venus. Hence the position will be the same
as above.

Thus significators are Moon, Mars, Rahu, Mercury, Sun, Ketu.

The common planets between the ruling planets and the significators are Moon,
Mars, Mercury, Ketu and Rahu. So now we check these significators as below:
Joint Period
dasa of Ketu for OY 9M 26D), the
joint period of Ketu-Mercury-Ketu is
running from 16-7-1978 to 7-8-
1978.
The joint period rulers Ketu and
Mercury are in the significators and
ruling planets. Thus during this
joint period child birth is certain.
Ketu Antra is up to 7-8-1978 and
this Antra cannot give result
because Saturn is in 11th house in
querent's chart and owner of ll'h
house in wife's chart; so there is
delay in delivery.
The next Antra are Venus and Sun.
PRASHNA JYOTISH
However they cannot be considered, because they are not in the list of common
planets between the RPs and significators (see above).
After Ketu Antra it is Moon Antra. So during the joint period of Ketu-Mercury-
Moon from 15-10-1978 to 24-11-1978, child birth is assured.
During this joint period up to 7-11-1978, Sun is transiting in the star of Rahu.
Rahu is in the ruling planets and significators; thus before 7-11-1978 she can
deliver the child.
Actually she delivered a baby boy during the joint period of Ketu-Mercury-
Moon-Rahu on 4-11-1978.
Transit
On 4-11-1978 Sun was trans1t1ng in Libra 18°.16' in the star of
Sookshma dasanath Rahu. Moon was transiting in Sagittarius 6° in the star
of dasanath Ketu. Ketu was transiting in Pisces 00° .49' in the sub of significator
Mars. Mercury was transiting in Scorpio 08°. 10' in the star of significator
Saturn. Rahu was transit in Virgo 00°.49' in the own sub.
Predicting gender of a child is always difficult. ln this ease 5th cusp sub lord
is Venus; Venus is in the star of own and sub of Saturn. Venus and Saturn
is in odd number sign Leo and occupant of odd number house 5. Thus we
can say she delivered a baby boy.

Jupiter is in the star of Saturn and sub of Venus. Star lord Saturn is owner
of 11 and aspects on 11. Sub lord Venus is owner of 2. Thus 5 1h cuspal sub
lord Jupiter is the significator of II and connected with 2; it is karaka of
children and in the fruitful sign. So it is assured for the querent to have a
child.
Wife's 11 1h Cusp (Aquarius 21°.34'):

The sub lord of the 11'h cusp is Jupiter. Hence the position will be the same
as above.
Wife's 91h Cusp (Sagittarius 170.34') :

The sub lord of the 9 1h cusp is Mars. Mars is in the star and sub of Rahu.
Star lord Rahu is occupant of 5; so having a third child is assured for the
querent.
Ruling Planets

Hence the ruling planets are Sun, Moon, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn. They all
are also the significators of 2, 5, 11 houses.
Joint Period
dasa of Sun for 3Y IM 19D), the
joint period of Sun-Saturn is
running from 16-9-1978. When
Sun-Jupiter joint period was
running his wife was pregnant.
Running joint period of Sun-
Saturn-Saturn is from 16-9-1978
to 10-11-1978. Both period lords
are in the ruling planets and also
in the significators.
Sun is in the own star and sub
of Saturn. Star lord Sun is owner
of 5 and occupant of 5. Sub lord
Saturn is owner of II. Thus Sun
is a strong significator of child
birth.
ln the wife's chart Saturn is in the star and sub of owner of 2 Venus; thus
Saturn is also a significator of child birth.
Dasanath Sun is the significator. Generally the significator gives the result
during the joint period of its star lord and sub lord, in other words during the
joint period of these three planets. Considering this rule we can assume that
she delivered the child during the joint period of Sun- Saturn- Saturn.
PRASHNA JYOTISH 277

In Saturn antra we have first sookshma of Venus. Venus is owner of 2 and its
star lord Rahu is occupant of 5. Venus is also star and sub lord of bhukti
and antra Saturn. So Venus sookshma is very important. Thus during the
joint period of Sun- Saturn- Saturn- Venus from 5-10-1978 to 14-10-1978,
when transit agree, she will deliver a child.
Actually she delivered a baby girl on 11-10-1978.
Transit
On 11-10-1978 Sun was transttmg in Virgo 24° in the star of Mars; Mars is
the sub of wife's 9th (3rd child). Moon was transiting in Capricorn 25° in the
star of Mars. Saturn was transiting in Leo 16° in the star of Sookshma dasanath
Venus. Venus was transiting in Libra 28°.31' in own sub.
Predicting a gender of child is always difficult. In this case 9th (3rd child) cusp
sub lord is Mars; Mars is in the star and sub of Rahu. Mars is in the even
number bhava 6, and conjoined with female planet Venus. Rahu is in the
even number sign Virgo. Thus we can say she delivered a baby girl.

the querent is pregnant and will have a child birth for sure.

The sub lord of the 11'h cusp is Sun. Sun is in the star of Venus and sub of

Dasanath Sun is the cuspal sub
lord of 11th. Sun is also a strong

planets. So Sun dasa is very
important.
Bhuktinath Ketu continues up to
14-10-1978. Next Venus bhukti
starts from 14-10-1978 to 14-10-
1980. Venus is the cuspal sub lord
of 51h and a strong significator of
I 1. Venus is also Asc sub lord of
horary map. So her delivery of a
child during Venus bhukti is sure.

first preference to Nodes. In this
horary map Rahu is in the

in the odd number sign Leo, a male sign. Both are conjoined with the male

connected with 2, 5 and Jupiter, the
karaka of child. So the querent's wife
is pregnant at the time of question.
Wife's 7th Cusp (Libra 23°.53'.20"):

2nd child is considered from 7th
house. 5th cusp is first child, from
5th, 3rd is 7th, thus 7th cusp signifies
2nd child. The sub lord of the 7th
cusp is Mercury. Mercury is in the
star of Moon and sub of Jupiter. We
have discussed about Moon and
Jupiter above. So 7th cusp sub lord
Mercury signifies 2 and is connected
with 5th. Both star lord Moon and
sub lord Jupiter are karaka of child
birth.

Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Mars for 4Y 9M 26D), the joint period
of Mars- Jupiter is running up to 4-4-1981.
From 4-4-1981 the joint period of Mars-Saturn will start. Both dasanath Mars
and bhukti lord Saturn are the strong significator of child birth. Joint period
of Mars- Saturn- Saturn will start from 4-4-1981 to 7-6-1981.
Wife is going to deliver the second child and 7th cusp sub lord is Mercury.
Mercury is the significator of child birth. Thus during the joint period of Mars-
Saturn- Mercury from 7-6-1981 to 3-8-1981, she will deliver second child when
transit agrees. Now let us check transit of Sun and Moon. Sun is transiting
from 7-6-1981 to 20-6-1981 in Taurus sign in the star of dasanath Mars and
will pass over 2nd cusp. Joint period of Mars- Saturn- Mercury- Mercury runs
from 7-6-1981 to 15-6-1981; so we can assume that she will deliver soon after
7-6-1981.
Actually the querent sent news from Chicago that his wife delivered a baby
boy on 9-6-1981 at 4.21 AM CST (DST) (Indian time 2.51 PM).
PRASHNA JYOTISH 283
Transit
On 9-6-1981 Sun was transltmg in Taurus 24°.58' in the star of dasanath
Mars. Moon was transiting in Leo 23° 19' in the sub of bhukti nath Saturn;
Mars was transiting in Taurus 9° 29' in the sub of 2nd significator Venus. Saturn
was transiting in Virgo 9°.32' in the sub of Venus. Mercury was transiting in
Gemini 11°.44' in the sub of Saturn.
Predicting gender of child is always difficult. In this case second child is

indicated by 7th cusp. 7th cusp sub lord is Mercury. Mercury is conjoined with
the male planets Sun and Mars and aspected by male planet Jupiter. Mercury
is occupant of the odd number house 9. Thus we can say she delivered a bay
boy.

In this horary map Moon is occupant of 12 (worries). Moon is aspected by
child karaka Jupiter and Saturn, owner of I 1. Thus it indicates that the querent
is worried about having a normal delivery.
Cuspal Sub Lord

5th Cusp (Leo 06°.34'):
The sub lord of the 5th cusp is Rahu. Rahu is in the star and sub of Mercury.
Rahu is in the fruitful sign Cancer. Star and sub lord Mercury is occupant of
11. Thus 5th cusp sub lord Rahu is a strong significator of 11. So it is clear
that she is pregnant at the time of query. And child birth will be by normal
procedure.

The sub lord of the 11th cusp is Moon; Moon is in the star of Mercury and
sub of Saturn. Moon is in the fruitful sign Pisces. Star lord Mercury is occupant
of 11. Thus 11th cusp sub lord Moon is a strong significator of 11 and Moon
is a natural karaka of conceptions. So it is clear that child birth will be by
normal procedure. _______________
PRASHNA JYOTISH 285
Joint Period
dasa of Mercury for 1Y 4M l3D),
the joint period of Mercury-Saturn-
Venus is running.
Dasanath Mercury is the cusp sub
lord of 2nd. Mercury is in the star
of Rahu and sub of Saturn. Rahu
is in the fruitful sign Cancer. Rahu
is aspected by Sun, owner of 5 and
Venus, owner of 2. Thus Rahu
represents 5 and 2. Sub lord
Saturn is owner of 11 and
conjoined with child karaka
Jupiter. Thus Mercury is a strong
significator of child birth and
connected with 2, 5, 11.
Bhukti nath Saturn is owner of 11.
Saturn is in the star of Moon and own sub. Star lord Moon is the cusp sub
lord of 11. Thus bhukti nath Saturn is a strong significator of child birth and
connected with 11.
Child delivery will be normal which we can understand from 5th and 11th cusp
sub lord. So delivery will be on due date. Now 11th cusp sub lord Moon's

Predicting gender of a child is always difficult. In this case 5th cusp sub lord
is Rahu; Rahu is aspected by Sun; male planet and owner of 5. Rahu is in
the star and sub of Mercury. Mercury gives the result of the planet with whom
it is conjoined with. Mercury is conjoined with the male planet Mars and

counted from the 7th cusp. In this horary map Moon is owner of 2 and occupant
of 2 (increase in family). 2nd house is considered as increase in family, thus it
indicates that the querent's question is related to child birth.
Cuspal Sub Lord

Wife's 5th Cusp (Libra 14° .45):
The sub lord of the 5th is Ketu. Ketu is in the star of Moon and sub of
Jupiter. Star lord Moon is occupant of 2 in the fruitful sign Cancer. Sub lord
Jupiter is a natural kaka of child birth. So having child birth for the querent's
wife is assured.
Wife's 11th Cusp (Aries 14° .45):

The sub lord of the ll'h cusp is Venus; Venus is in the star of Jupiter and
sub of own. Venus is owner of 5. Star lord Jupiter is natural kaka of child
birth. So the querent is assured to have the child.
Querent asked about his wife's third delivery. Wife's 9th house is 3rd child.
PRASHNA JYOTISH 287
Wife's 11th cusp sub lord Venus
indicates 3rd child by occupant of 9.
Wife's 9th Cusp (Aquarius 10" .45):

Saturn; Saturn is in the star of
Moon and sub of Rahu. Saturn is
owner of 9 and conjoined with child
birth karaka Jupiter. Both star lord
Moon and sub lord Rahu are in the
fruitful sign Cancer, occupant of 2
(increase in family). Thus the wife's
delivery of third child is assured.
9th cusp sub lord is Saturn. Saturn
is the neuter gender planet. Saturn
is in the even number female sign
Virgo. Its star lord Moon is female
planet. Both Moon and sub lord
Rahu are in the even number female sign Cancer. Thus we can say she will
deliver a bay girl.

thus both dasa lord and antra

""-------4-----~------~ child birth. Sub lord Moon is
a fast moving planet. Mercury is also a fast moving planet. Mars by nature is
fast worker, so child birth will be within a short period.
Bhukti nath Saturn is the sub lord of 9th cusp and the significator of 3rd child
birth.
Thus running dasa and bhukti lords, Mercury and Saturn, are the 2nd cusp
sub lord and 9th cusp sub lord. Now for fulfillment of desire of wife we need
to check 11th cusp. 11th cusp sub lord is Venus which we have discussed in
details above; Venus is owner of 5 and occupant of 9 (3rd child). Thus sookshma
dasa of Venus will give the result. So during the joint period of Mercury-Saturn-
Mercury-Venus from 11-4-1981 to 4-5-1981 she will deliver a baby girl.
In selection of joint period we have considered 2, 9 and 9th cusp sub lord; for
getting the proper date we check 5th cusp sub lord in Sun transit. During 14-
4-1981 to 27-4-1981 transit Sun is in Aries sign and in the star of Ketu. Ketu
is 5th cusp sub lord. Thus between 14-4-1981 to 27-4-1981 she will deliver a
288 PRASHNA JYOTISH
child. Actually she delivered a baby girl on 20-4-1981.

Moon
The querent put the query for his uncle's (his father's younger brothers)
daughter. The 9th house denotes the querent's father, the 11th his uncle; so
the 3rd house becomes the Asc. of
the cousin sister and proceed. For
convenience each house counted
from the 3rd cusp. In this horary
map Moon is in conj. with Saturn
owning 5 (pregnancy to the sister).
Thus it clearly shows that the
query refers to the pregnancy of the
sister.
Cuspal Sub Lord

cousin sister's 5th Cusp (Aquarius
25°.53.20 "):
The sub lord of 5th cusp is Ketu. It
is in its own star which is in the
barren sign Leo in 10. So Ketu is
the significator of 10. For females
Moon denotes fertility. In this case
Moon is in conj. with Saturn, the
obstructer in the barren sign Aries. Moon is in the star of Ketu and sub of
Mercury. Star lord Ketu is occupant of 10 in barren sign Leo. Sub lord Mercury
itself is eunuch planet. Thus Moon is the significator of 10 and connected
with 12. Moon is also connected with barren sign and obstacle planet Ketu,
Saturn, Mercury. Hence the querent's cousin sister is not pregnant at the time
of judgment. Later on, in the medical examination it was revealed that she
was not pregnant.

Hints
1. If 5th or 11th cuspal sub lord is retrograde; its star lord also retrograde; sub
lord and/or its star lord is in barren sign; the cusp sub lord does not signify
2, 5, 11 and be a significator of l, 4, 10, then there is no chance of child
birth.
2. Adoption: select the Asc. of a child which you want to adopt. 4th cusp is
mother; 9th cusp is father; 8th cusp is inheritance and also separation from
father (12th from 9). In adoption child is separated from father and stays
permanently with adopted father. Adoption is considered from 4th cusp because
mother delivered child; so motherhood is sure but not fatherhood.
If 4th cusp sub lord is Mercury or it is in dual sign viz Gemini, Sagittarius
and Pisces or 4th cusp sub lord is in the star of Mercury and also the
significator of 8, then one can adopt a child.
Adoption happens during the joint period of the significators of 4, 8.
Moon
In this horary map the lady put the query. Her elder sister is considered from
11th cusp, and her child (5th from llth) is 3rd house. So consider the 3rd cusp
292 PRASHNA JYOTISH

as the Asc. (Aries 02° .35') of the
child.
In this horary rna p Moon is
conjoined with Mars, owner of 3
(child to be adopted). Moon is in
the star of Ketu and sub of
Jupiter. Star lord Ketu is aspected
by Mars. Sub lord Jupiter is
conjoined with Mars, owner of 3
(child to be adopted). Thus it
indicates that the querent's
question is related to adopt of a
child.
Cuspal Sub Lord

5th Cusp (Taurus 26°.35'}:
The sub lord of the 5th cusps is
Venus and sub of Moon. Jupiter is retrograde. Jupiter, Venus and Moon are
~--------lr-------1-------~'l'f in the barren sign. Star lord
IV 01:35 Ill 02:35
v 26:35 Venus is occupant of Asc. Sub
lord Moon is conjoined with
Vl21:35 1127:35 Jupiter, owner of 12 and
Ke 08:08
Rahu. Thus 5th cusp sub lord
1--------"'t~-----t"'----------+ Jupiter is retrograde and the
V1119:40 significator of Asc. So the
Ve 24:34 querent has no child and the
119:40
only alternative is to adopt a
child.
11th Cusp (Scorpio 26° .35):

The sub lord of the ll'h cusp
Xl26:35
is Jupiter. Hence the position
IX 02:35 X 01:35 will be the same as above.
4th Cusp of child (Gemini 21°.35'}:

The cuspal sub lord of the child's 4th house is Jupiter. Jupiter is in the star
of Venus and sub of Moon. Jupiter is lord of dual sign Sagittarius and Pisces.
Jupiter aspects on child's owner of 4th Mercury and is conjoined with Mars
owner of 8 and Asc. Thus adoption of a child is assured.
Joint Period
At the time of judgment (Balance dasa of Ketu for 3Y OM 7D), the joint period
of Ketu-Jupiter is running from 1-l-1980 to 7-12-1980. There is no control of
ours on dasa-bhukt. Ketu is in the star and sub of Rahu. Rahu is conjoined
with child's owner of 8 Mars. Thus Ketu is connected with 8. Jupiter is 4th
cusp sub lord of child. So adoption will be possible during Ketu-Jupiter joint
period.
In this horary map Mercury is only one significator of 4, and significator of 8
is only Venus. Thus during the joint period of Ketu-Jupiter-Mercury from 9-4-
PRASHNA JYOTISH 293
1980 to 25-10-1980 she will able to adopt her sister's child. Actually the querent
adopted the child on 18-04-1980.
Transit
On 18-04-1980 Sun transit was in Aries 4° .38' and transit Jupiter was in Leo
6°.52' in the star of dasanath Ketu. Mercury was transiting in Pisces 11 °.27'
in the sign of bhukti nath Jupiter. Ketu was transiting in Aquarius 2°.42' in
the sub of sookshma dasanath Venus. Venus was transiting in Taurus 19°.47'

Hints
Contract is indicated by 3rd house. 11'h indicates fulfillment of desire and own
favour is considered by 6th. Thus if 3rd cuspal sub lord signifies 6 or 11, then
there is a chance of contract with others during the joint period of the
significators of 6, 11.
When to sign the contract: Select the day when Moon transits in the star of
planets which are the significators of 6, 11. For hour of the day, consider the
time of transit of Moon in sub of the significators of 6, 11.
If you want to further narrow down the time, choose the time when the rising
Asc. is the significator of 6, 11 or consider Asc. star lord and sub of the
significators of 6, 11; during that time you can sign the contract.
Moon
In this horary map Moon is in the star of Sun and sub of Saturn. Star lord
Sun is conjoined with Mercury, owner of 7 (partnership/ a person with whom
we sign a contract) and 6 (12th of opponent) (Mercury) (karaka of contract) in
Gemini sign. Sub lord Saturn is conjoined with Jupiter, owner of 3 (contract)
PRASHNA JYOTISH 299
in Mercury sign Virgo. Thus it
related to contract.
Cuspal Sub Lord

3rd Cusp (Pisces 09° .SO':
The sub lord of the 3 rd cusp is
Saturn and sub of Jupiter. Venus
is occupant of 7 (partnership/ a
person whom we sign contract),
owner of 10 (business). Star lord
Saturn is occupant of 9 (long
journey) and owner of 2 (money).
Saturn has aspect on 3 (contract),
6 (12th of opponent) and 11 (gain,
fulfillment of desire). Sub lord
Jupiter is owner of 3 (contract), 12
(settle abroad) and very near to the
cusp 9th (long journey). Thus 3rd cusp sub lord Venus is the significator of 3,
6, 11 and connected with 3. So the querent will execute the contract. Venus
is also the significator of 2, 9 and connected with 10, 9, 12 and 7. Thus
foreign tour and partnership in earning money through astrology is assured.

Transit
302 PRASHNA JYOTISH

Easy Transit System
l. Saturn transits in one star for about 13 months. Rahu or Ketu 8 months.
Jupiter for about 5 months and 10 days. Mars for 20 days or so. Sun is very
regular in motion and stays in one star for about 13 days. Moon stays for
about 24 hours in one star. Mercury and Venus are not uniform in their motion.
To consider daily event we need to check motion of Sun and Moon.
Saturn while transiting through one star remains in one sub for many weeks.
Rahu, Ketu and Jupiter remain in one sub for many days. Especially transit
of Saturn, Rahu and Ketu's motion in each sub is very important for daily
event. Sun remains in one sub for one day to three days. Moon for about
three hours. Thus sun and Moon indicate day and hours.
2. Star lord of transiting planet is the deciding factor of happening events. For
those bhavas signified by star lord, the transiting planet gives the result. Also
if the sub lord of transiting planet agrees with star lord signification, then
onlv the transiting planet gives the result of its star lord agreed by the sub
lord.
When the transiting planet passes through 9 subs, this sub lord indicates
deferent results, because these 9 subs indicate different significations.
What is not indicated in the birth map cannot be expected to materialize during
the period of the transiting planets, to the extent desired.
3. Rahu and Ketu travel with regular motion. Saturn is slow moving planet.
Here an attempt has been made to read solely the cumulative influence of the
slow moving planets in transit eg. Saturn, Rahu, Ketu and Jupiter. Their effects
during the spread over of 5 to 13 months are observed. Suppose all the above
transiting planets are moving in the stars of the significator of money (2, 6,
11) and also in the subs connected with 2, 6 and 11 in the birth map, then
they become coincided in their influence. So your monetary condition may
improve during this part of the year. But during the time when the above
transiting planets move in the subs connected with 8 or 12 and not 2, 6 or
11 in the birth map, it is likely that you may lose money or you may have to
spend much money on any account.
Suppose all the above transiting planets are moving in the stars of the
significator of traveling 3, 9, 12 and also in the subs connected with 3, 9 and
12 in the birth map, then they become coincided in their influence. So you
will enjoy traveling during this part of the year. But during the time when the
above transiting planets move in the subs connected with 2, 8 or 11 and not
3, 9 or 12 in the birth map, it is likely that you may not be able to travel.
4. Note down the month when you benefited by monetary gain as discussed
above. You might find that during particular month Sun must be transttmg
in star or sub of significator of 2, 6, 11. And on that day Moon also transiting
in star or sub of significator of 2, 6, 11.
5. Suppose the above transiting planets move in the stars of the significator of
2, 6 and 11 during a particular year under review. But their star lords remain
in retrograde motion for some time, then it will not be possible to expect any
desired result till they become direct in motion. More so, if they be in the
retrograde subs.
PRASHNA JYOTISH 303
6. This transit system is very easy and gives the perfect result. This is my
humble experience. Readers may watch transit during one year period,
approximately 5 to 13 months of transit of Saturn, Jupiter, Rahu and Ketu
could be watched. When Mars transits long time say 7 or 8 months in one
sign, Mars' affect also needs to be watched.
7. Generally how to check transit affect in the joint dasa period is discussed
in my book 'Kundali Rahshya".

Rahu Leo 8°.25' to Cancer 19°.15', Ketu Aquarius so .25' to Capricorn 19°.15'.
2. ln this birth map the publication of books is indicated. Mercury (writing),
Jupiter (publication), Mars (printing), the houses 3 (writing), 9 (publication),
10 (publicity) and 11 (success) are connected with writing, publication and
printing.
Sun, Venus and Jupiter are the significators of 3 and 10, they are inter-related
with one another. Rahu and Mercury are related to each other and also to
Jupiter, they are thus the significators of 9. Ketu is the significator of 9 and
11, it is connected with Mars and Mercury. Moon is also the significator of 9
and connected with Mercury, Jupiter and Mars. Hence the writings and their
publications are promised. So all these planets are the significators of the
publication of books.
When Saturn, Rahu and Ketu simultaneously transit in the stars and subs of
these significators of writings and publications, during a particular year under
review, the affairs of writing and publication will be active.

Additional House Grouping
For the rules mentioned under, I did not get chance to check by horary.
Hint 1: Appearance
Planet gives the result of its star lord. Thus the sign of star lord of Asc. sub
lord gives clue to the appearance of native.
Hint 2: Saint
If the sub lord of the Asc. (out-look) be the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of house 3 (mental trend), 10 (aims) and 12 (renunciation);
or connected with 3, 10 and 12; also with Saturn, the native leans towards
renun-ciation.
If the sub lord of the 11th cusp (fulfillment of desires) be the significator (in
the star of the occupant or owner) of house 5 and 10 or connected with 5 and
lO the native achieves spiri-tual attainment.
Hint 3: Political Career

If the sub lords of the Asc, lOth cusp and 11th cusp be the strong significator
(in the star of the occupant or owner) of 1, 6, 9, 10 and 11 the native plunges
into the public life or he shines out as a statesman or politician. It may be
remembered that a planet owning both the Trikona and Kendra gives prosperity
in general.
Hint 4: Criminal Mental Qualities

The sub lords of the Asc, Moon and Mercury denote mental qualities. If they
be in the star and sub of malefic connected with 6, 8 or 12, they signify
computational, criminal, diplomatic, malicious, revengeful, relentless, shrewd,
crafty and intriguing traits.
Hint 5: Madness
If the sub lords of the 6, 8,12th cusps be the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of house 6 , 8 or 12 and connected with Moon (mind),
Mercury (brain), Saturn (sadness) and Ketu (craziness), and Moon , Mercury,
Saturn and Ketu connected with house 6, 8, 12, one will have sign of madness.
Hint 6: Suicide
If the sub lord of the Asc. be the significator (in the star of the occupant or
owner) of Badhaka, Maraka, 8 and its star lord is connected with Mars, the
native will have a suicide tendency. Event will happen during the joint period
of the significators of 8.
or owner) of Badhaka, Maraka, 8 and its star lord connected with Mars, the
native will have a suicide tendency. Event will happen during the joint period
of the significators of 8.

PRASHNA JYOTISH 315
Hint 8: Imprisonment
If the sub lord of the 12th cusp (jail) be the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of 3 (away from home), 8 (misfortune) or 12 (restrictions)
and connected with malefic Mars, Saturn, Rahu or Ketu, one has to court jail
during the joint period of the significators of 3, 8 and 12.
Hint 9: Murder
If the sub lord of the Asc, 8, 12 (murder) cusps be the significator (in the
star of the occupant or owner) of Badhaka, Maraka, 8, 12 and connected
with Asc, 6 and malefic planets and all these planets are in the violent sign
Aries, Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn or Chara sign, then there
is chance of murder. Mars and Ketu give murder by sharp weapon or revolver
or pistol, Saturn and Rahu give murder by suffocation. Murder happens during
the joint period of the significators of 8, 12 or during the joint period of cuspal
sub lords of 8, 12.
Hint 10: Criminal Proceedings

If the sub lord of the lOth cusp (status) be the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of 7 (court proceedings), 8 (infamy) or 12 (crimes) and
connected with malefic planets, the native will be involved in court proceedings
relating to crimes, will be ill-reputed and will be inflicted with punishment,
during the joint period of the significators of 7, 8 and 12.
Hint 11: Inheritance

of the occupant or owner) of 8 (inheritance), one will have inheritance property.
If the sub-lord of the 8th (inheritance) cusp is be the significator (in the star of
the occupant or owner) of 11, then one will have inheritance property.
Hint 12: Gain or Loss from Change of Place

If the sub-lord of 3rd cusp be the significator (in the star of the occupant or
owner) of house 2 or 10 or II, one will make money and improve a lot. If the
sub-lord of the 3rd cusp be the significator (in the star of the occupant or
owner) of 8 and 12, then the move adds more difficulties.
Hint 13: Treasure in House

If the sub-lord of the4th cusp be the significator (in the star of the occupant
or owner) of the houses 2 or 11 or 6 and connected with Saturn in direct
motion, one will surely have the treasure in house.
Hint 14: Journalism

If the sub-lord of the 11th cusp be the significator (in the star of the occupant
or owner) of 3 (writing) and 9 (publication) and connected with Jupiter
(publication) or Mercury (writing) or both, one will be a journalist.
Hint 15: Exchanging Commodities

If the sub-lord of the 6th cusp be the significator (in the star of the occupant
or owner) of 6 or 11, you gain. But if it is the significator of 5 or 12, by so
exchanging you must lose.
316 PRASHNA JYOTISH

lf the sub-lord of the 12th cusp be the significator (in the star of the occupant
or owner) of 6 and 11, you gain. But if 12th cusp be the significator (in the
star of the occupant or owner) of 5 and 12, definitely you must incur loss.
During the joint period of 2 ,6, 11 you gain. But during the joint period of 5,
8, 12 you must lose.
Hint 16: Negotiation Successful or Not

If the sub-lord of the 3rd cusp be the significator (in the star of the occupant
or owner) of the houses 6 and 11, then one will have success. But if the sub-
lord of the 3rd cusp be significator (in the star of the occupant or owner) of
the houses 5 and 12, one cannot have success. The houses which have to
take for judgment depend on the query. lf it is for marriage, consider 7, 3 and
9; if it is for business judge houses 10, 6, 3, and 9; if it is for adoption of a
child consider 5, 3 and 9.
Hint 17: Accident

If the sub lord of the Asc, 8th or 12th cusp be the significator (in the star of
the occupant or owner) of 8 or 7 or 2, the native is likely to meet with an
accident. lf the sub lord of the Asc, 8th or 12th cusp or if the joint rulers of
the Asc, 8th or 12th cusp be the significator (in the star of the occupant or
owner) of 8 or 12, the native is likely to meet with an accident.
lf the sub lord of the Asc, 8th or 12th cusp be the significator (in the star of
the occupant or owner) of 8 or 7 or 2, the native is likely to meet with a fatal
accident and if it be a significator of 2 or 5 or 11, one will be safe from
accidents.
lf the sub lord of the 8th or 12th cusp be the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of 1, 5 or 11 the native will overcome danger, during the
Accidents and unnatural deaths are caused during the joint period of the
significators of 8 and 12 or of the cuspal joint rulers of 8 and 12.
Planets, occupant of Aries, Gemini, Libra, Sagittarius and Capricorn are
conducive to accidents. Malefic planet Mars, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu cause
accidents.
Hint 18: Astrology

The sub-lord of the Asc, Jupiter and Moon be the significator (in the star of
the occupant or owner) of 9, 12, then one will get mastery in astrology. Jupiter
is a natural ruler of 9 and 12. Moon gives thoroughness. Saturn gives deep
thinking. So if the sub lord of Saturn be the significator (in the star of the
occupant or owner) of 9, 12, then one gets mastery in astrology. Ketu also
indicates astrology.
