Who else, except the Creator Brahma, can say with certainty what will definitely happen ?

In-depth Guide to the Concept of

Bhagya and Bhagyastana in Vedic Astrology | DR. T.S. VASAN

W

e generally take bhagyastana as 9th house which is said to be the house of prosperity. The lord of this house uplifts the horoscope in an appropriate dasha periods. When we say bhagyastana, it is understood that it is from lagna. We have also noted that all yogakaraka hail from 5th or 9th houses. But 9th house is the powerful trikona which carries more weightage for giving prosperity to the horoscope. It is interesting to note that if this concept is extended to other bhavas and analyse that house gives special insight to understand the progress and prosperity of that respective bhava. In order to understand 9th house or bhagyastana, we have to start from the lagna bhava and we already know that 9th house from lagna is called bhagyastana and that lord is very important for the progress and prosperity of the native.

In the same way, if we start the 9th from the 2nd house, it is called dhana bhagyastana. The 9th house from the 3rd house is bhratru bhagyastana.

9th house from 4th house is sukha bhagyastana. The 9th house from the 5th house is putra bhagyastana. The 9th from the 6th house is called roga bhagyastana. The 9th house from 7th house is called vivaha bhagyastana.

The 9th house from the 8th house is called ayur bhagyastana. The 9th house from the 9th house is called pitru bhagyastana. The 9th house from the 10th house is called karma bhagyastana. The 9th house from the 11 house is called labha bhagyastana. The 9th house from the 12th house is called moksha bhagyastana.

In order to understand this concept, an example horoscope is taken and interpretation is made as follows:

Dr. T. S. Vasan is a reknowned scholar in Astrology, with degrees in Science and Law. He has a fellowship of the prestigious Royal Asiatic Society. As the Vice President of the Indian Council of Astrological Sciences, established by Dr. B. V. Raman, for a period of 22 years (1992-2014), he has trained students not only in India but all over the world.

He is Director of Modern Astro Studios, founded in 1930 by his father Pandit Sharma. With a string of titles like Jyothisha Bhaskara, Jyothisha Bhanu, Jyothir Vidya Alankara, Samudrika Bhushana and many more, he has also been awarded the prestigious title of Jyothisha Mahasagara by the Raman & Rajeswari Research Foundation.

1. Lagna bhagyastanadhipathi sukra is in 10th house with another benefic Mercury forming dharmakarmadhipathi raja yoga, but because of the 3rd and 8th lord Mars delays the success for the native. But because Venus is in Prabhutvastana along with its lord, success was assured in his life.

2. Dhana bhagyadhipathi Mercury occupies the karmastana, his own house, gives successful life with material comforts because the lord of that house is in the same house along with another benefic Venus. But here also Mars gives minor impediments to the second bhava.

enus which entered Pisces on 26th January 2017, becomes retrograde on 5th March and back to direct motion on 16th April, it remains in state of combustion from 21st March to 25th of March.

All these happen in Pisces, the exaltation sign of Venus. He moves to Aries on 29th May.

Mrs. Bhama Veeraraghavan a third generation astrologer, with 25 years of learning & experience in the field of astrology. She holds a post graduate degree in Commerce, and a student of psychology.

Her expertise is in fixing the right muhurta for right occasion. She's currently doing research in Vedic astrology with an emphasis on horoscope matching and muhurta.

Venus (Sukra) is the lord of Taurus and Libra, the 2nd and 7th houses in the Kalapurusha chart, and gets exalted in the 12th house of Kalapurusha, Pisces. He is the Kalatrakaraka (marriage/love/affairs), who bestows happiness in married life, bed pleasures, luxury, beauty, sensual pleasures, wealth, aesthetic sense, artistic pursuits, attraction, etc. Venus is about relationships. Venus is the savior. He is the lord of Mruthasanjeevini mantra, with which he saves his disciples. When in Pisces, Venus will help relationships to flourish, understanding will be better between couples and entertainment & artistic fields get a boost. Normally Venus transits in every sign for 25 to 30 days. However this transit of Venus in Pisces lasts for more than 120 days.

Let us see how this transit affects you. The predictions are based on your respective Moon sign.

V

enus is the lord of your 2nd house, (family, finance, your speech) and 7th house (relationships, marriage & business). Exalted th [Aswini, Bharani and Krittika 1] Venus in your 12 house blesses you with all comforts and luxuries.

It will ensure that you enjoy well during this period. You may spend money on buying costly jewels, decorating your house etc. There is a high chance for you to take your family to a foreign country for vacation. Those who are married will have a romantic time together. If you are running a business with a partner, keep clear communication to avoid any losses.

You may not get to eat your meals in time. Do not invest in speculations.

There might be some trivial issues popping up in family/relationship. Try not to confront it as it will get solved with time. Students have to control their entertainment as it will distract them a lot.

Predicting Child Birth through Vedic Astrology - A Step by Step Guide | VISHWAJEET BABBAL

B

efore sharing my views upon pregnancy, I would humbly like to share first some dictums from classics about progeny.

Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra Ch.16 Shl.7 Should Dharma‘s lord be in Lagna, while Putra‘s lord is in fall and Ketu is in Putra along with Buddha, obtainment of progeny will be after a great deal of ordeal.

Ch.24 Shl.14 If Dhana‘s lord is in Dhana Bhava; the native will be bereft of progeny.

A post graduate in Economics and Computer Science, Vishwajeet Babbal is based in Jaipur, India. Under the guidance of Sri Shaktimohan Singh (author of Kal Chakra Dasa System), Vishwajeet mostly learnt Jyotisha through books. His focus is on concepts and their applicability (through Jyotisha, Vastu Shastra and Numerology) to modern times. He is a professional vedic counsellor.

Ch.24 Shl.53 If Putra‘s lord is in Putra Bhava, the native will have progeny if related to a benefic.

Ch.25 Shl.6 If Dhooma is in Putra Bhava, the native will have limited progeny.

Ch.30 Shl.1-6 If Upa Pada is conjunct with or receives a drishti from a benefic graha, one will obtain full happiness from progeny.

Ch.45 Shl.19-23 If a graha in Putra Bhava is in Lajjit Avastha, there will be destruction of progeny, or there will be only one surviving child.

Ch.45 Shl.40-51 If in Agamana Avastha, Surya in Vyaya or in Yuvati Bhava will destroy progeny.

Ch.45 Shl.64-75 If Upaveshana Avastha occurs for Mangal in Dharma Bhava, the native will lose his whole wealth apart from his wife and progeny.

Ch.45 Shl.64-75 Mangal in Netrapani Avastha in Lagna will destroy the native‘s wife and progeny.

Ch.70 Shl.30-33 All about knowledge, religious inclinations of the native and progeny is to be ascertained from the 5th bhava from Guru. If the Rekhas in the 5th bhava from Guru are larger in number in the Ashtakavarga, there will be great happiness in respect of progeny. If the dots are larger in number, the happiness in respect of progeny will be meager. The number of children is equal to the number of rekhas in the 5th bhava (from Guru) provided it is not the rashi of debilitation of Guru or his enemy‘s rashi. In that case the number of children will be very limited. The number of children is also equal to the number of navamsa in which the lord of the 5th from Guru is posited.

Hora Sara Ch.4 Shl.13 According to Shastras, intercourse in day time is not congenial for progeny. Shani and Buddha both being neuters will only push such a child.

Ch.4 Shl.14 Notes: The sloka is suggestive of the fact that irrespective of promising combinations of grahas at the time of intercourse, one should have good Putra Bhava / Putra‘s lord. Unless the promise for progeny THE ASTROLOGICAL eMAGAZINE
