Some General Derivations

Important

This is a document for beginners of practical astrology. Even if you

learn this much only in astrology, you would be better than 50% of the

so-called astrologers. So learn and memorize the quotes present in this

document. This is the first stepping-stone for you in practical astrology.The rule to be followed always is - if some rule of quote that does not

help you to arrive at definite results, then that rule or quote is not worth

your precious time wasting on it. Note that the results given here are

just general, learning to be specific, and arriving at clear and accurate

results demands more study and effort from your part. Start being prac-

tical in the study and application of astrology - and TRUST in its ability

to show us the future possibilities and trustworthy results. It is just the

BEGINNING to that goal. Remember the following rules -

1. Apply these results to ANY chart in a general manner and

expect at least 60% accuracy in predicting general results. Use it

and note the results.

2. Emphasis the results ONLY WHEN the dasa or antara matches.

3. DONT INSIST that all the results mentioned by you would

be true - because these are just simplified general derivations.

OK, now we are ready to take up the challenge of correct predic-

tion for any chart with minimum study. The path begins......

Basic Knowledge

Most of us are already aware that there are 12 Signs, 9 Grahas

(Sun, Moon, 5 planets, 2 nods), and 12 houses starting from Lagna

(Asc).

Planets are ascribed degrees of exaltation,, own signs, friends signs,

neutral signs, enemy signs and debilitation. The strength of a planets

decreases in order in these signs.

Signs starting from Lagna are termed houses. 6-8-12 houses are

known as Dustana (malefic houses) and the remaining Sustana (ben-

efic houses).

If you have this much basics clear, then you can read through the

following write-up and start applying them in natal charts. But always

remember, that these generalized derivations are given here only to

serve as a starting point for study of practical astrology; the definite

and specific results may vary. The general understanding about the

possible results helps us much in correcting our derivations and thus in

arriving at correct specific results. Never ever ignorantly start arguingthat these result should be like these only etc - because these gener-

alizations for the weak brains are not even part of the basic 7-

fold system, but only a very simplified version of the same. But

definitely this could serve as a very good starting point to have a taste

of the usefulness and practical application of predictive astrology.

Another definite point to remember is that - the results mentioned

here can be expected to truly materialize only in the Vimsottari

dasa period of the planet concerned. Of course it can be applied in

other scenarios and as general prediction as well, but I wont suggest

the beginners to do the same as of now.

As always generalization means simplification - which essentiallycauses lose of specificness. Anomalies and corollaries would be al-

ways necessary to derive or pinpoint the exact results. Simplified gen-

eralizations have only one purpose - to serve as a good starting point -

to understand the approach, methodology and improve ourselves, in the

art of prediction - and to maintain the interest, with some fruits for

effort.

Planets with Place-strength (Generalization)

Generalization always demands the use of general terms. In this

section the general terms used are - exaltation, own house, friendly

house, neutral house, enimical house and debilitation, which may applyto the same related to any planet.

1. Exaltation

Exaltation of any planet in general gives good results. (Of course

bad results also can be derived based on the same - which is not dealt

within here)

O i xVSSM i ix Mv{ {iEiiiix{n&=nMhi Vi GE l x G ih vi E**

- n{E

[If a planet is in its exaltation, (in the dasa of that planet) the native

would be bestowed with many auspicious results and ownership of

prosperous land and property. He would be so wealthy that even kings

will appreciate his wealth. He would be very kind and compassionateand will win the appreciation of others and will help them. Like the

great King Vikramaditya (Remember Chandra gupta Vikramaditya of

4th century AD), he would be very famous for his tactics, good quali-

ties, courage, donations and tactful intelligence]

2. Own house

Planets in own house also usually give good results - but the ques-

tion is what good results?. This is answers in the following verse.

xnMi O |{Oni | i{ OiiS\S |{x

x xIi{ i E E Vx i {x& E x]ix{**- n{E

[If a planet is in its own house, (in the dasa of that planet) the native will

get many rewards and respect from the wealthy and well-respected

people. He too will be wealthy; otherwise he will have a stable and

good family life (with wife, children and having good relation with many

relatives). In the period of that planet (in its own house), he will con-

struct new house, purchase new property, or may even gain them from

some one (i.e. not purchasing but instead gaining due to heredity etc).

The public will respect him (and he will become popular in his native

place). What ever he lost in previous bad dasa periods will come back

to him (i.e. his life will again become study, peaceful and happy)]

3. Friendly house

Planets in friends house also usually give good results - but here

again the amount of good results becomes less, compared to own house

or exaltation. Again the question is - what good results? The answer

follows.

OIjMii& E r xn S{ jV vxvxM nni VxxE**

- n{E

[If a planet is in friendly house, (in the dasa of that planet) the native

will have beneficial effects and results due to friends and relatives. He

will get many new friends, relations and connections. He will live a

good life with good wife, affectionate children and good wealth. Hewill be appreciated by all and will get good public support in everything]

4. Neutral house

Just like the word suggests, if the planet is in neutral house, then

neither too much good results nor too much bad results can be ex-

pected, the life would be neutral - a mix of good and bad. Or better the

planet in neutral house, just maintains the previous status co. The fol-

lowing quote clarifies this.

Il& J] x Ei EJ n &J Vxi l{S**

- n{E[If the planet is in neutral house, it does not generate any special result.

Whether it be happiness or sadness - the results of previous period will

continue (i.e. if it was more sadness in the previous dasa then the same

condition will continue, if it was more happiness in the previous dasa

then the same will continue)]

5. Enimical house

Planets in enemys house gives bad results, even though not as bad

as a planet in debilitation. Again the question is what results? - a usual

doubt which gets clarified by the following quote-

Mi O jM xE]i {zk {xnli+E\Sxi {{bx n xMv(+){ ii{i{x**

- n{E

[If the planet is in the enimical house, (in the dasa of that planet) the

native will have a tough time with all kinds of bad conditions. He will

have to suffer in many ways, will have to live by the food provided by


3/9

others (i.e. depending on others), may live in rented house or others

house. Poverty, troubles and suffering caused by enemies etc will also

be present. Even the loved ones will become enemies or the native

may start considering even the friends as enemies (during this period)]

6. Debilitation

The planet in debilitation certainly gives many bad results. (Of course

good results also can be derived based on the same - which is not dealt

within here). Again the question is - what results? The answer follows-

xSO(+)v&{ix k nx nSh{i&xS EE]n iivxxilE**

- n{E

[If the planet is in debilitation, the native will suffer degradation in sta-

tus and profession due to his own doings. He will be miserable, and will

develop bad habits. Debt, dependence on bad people, living in a dirty

place (a place about which the native is not at all feel satisfied), becom-

ing servant to others, the hardships due to long travels etc all would be

present (If the native goes abroad during this period, he will sufferabroad and the journey will not be fruitful at all in terms of benefit)]

Planets in various houses (Generalization)

The following gives the results for the placement of malefics and

benefics in houses starting from Lagna. By the word malefics natural

malefics such as Ma, Sa, Su, Ra, Ke, Me with malefic and weak Moon

are denoted. All the other grahas such as Ju, Ve, strong Moon, Me

alone or with benefic are denoted by the word benefics. With this un-

derstanding about the terms malefics and benefics read the read and

apply the following general derivations - and observe how much they

fructify.

As you might have understood already, the general terms used in

this section are malefics and benefics.

made in any horoscope when you first receive the horoscope itself.

If some one is unable to convey at least this much general un-

derstanding about the chart to the client, better not to say that he

is even a student of astrology.

Hope that this document would be helpful to the beginners who

sincerely want to learn and apply practical astrology. s
