Charvaka philosophy is supposed to be based on the Brihaspati Sutra, which is extinct. We are giving bellow the known data on the Chrvaka philosophy.

Charvaka (also given as Carvaka and also called Lokayata (Sanskrit: “Worldly Ones”) was a philosophical school of thought, developed in India c. 600 BCE, stressing materialism as the means by which one understands and lives in the world. Materialism holds that perceivable matter is all that exists; concepts such as the soul and any other supernatural entities or planes of existence are simply inventions of imaginative people who find the truth of existence too drab and those who profit from the gullibility of such people.

The meaning of the name is contested with some claiming it references the act of chewing since Charvaka emphasized the importance of enjoying life through eating and drinking while others maintain it is the name of the founder or that Charvaka was a disciple of the founder, a reformer named Brhaspati. The belief system is also known as Lokayata (“philosophy of the people”) and Brhaspatya after Brhaspati.

The Charvaka vision rejected all supernatural claims, all religious authority and scripture, the acceptance of inference and testimony in establishing truth, and any religious ritual or tradition. The essential tenets of the philosophy were:

*Direct perception as the only means of establishing and accepting any truth.
*What cannot be perceived and understood by the senses does not exist.
*All that exists are the observable elements of air, earth, fire, and water.
*The ultimate good in life is pleasure; the only evil is pain.
*Pursuing pleasure and avoiding pain is the sole purpose of human existence
* Religion is an invention of the strong and clever who prey on the weak.
It should be noted, however, that, while the above are accepted as the tenets of Charvaka, no original Charvakan texts have yet been found; all that is known of the belief system comes from later Hindu, Jain, and Buddhist works which were hostile toward the philosophy and recorded its beliefs in refuting them. Charvaka is thought to have been developed by Brhaspati (not to be confused with the great sage of light Brhaspati of Dharma Shastra fame) in response to what he perceived as the superstitious nonsense people were fooled into accepting as irrefutable truth.

THE BRHASPATI SUTRA, SAID TO BE THE CENTRAL TEXT OF CHARVAKA, WAS LOST OR DESTROYED, & ANY CLAIMS MADE REGARDING THE PHILOSOPHY SHOULD BE VIEWED CRITICALLY.
Brhaspati’s disciple, Charvaka, is thought by some to have developed his original vision. It is equally possible that Charvaka was its founder and Brhaspati the disciple and also possible that neither is true. The Brhaspati Sutra, said to be the central text of Charvaka, was lost or destroyed and any claims made regarding the philosophy should be viewed critically; including any made in this present article. Although it seems to have exerted considerable influence in its time, especially in developing what would be known today as the scientific method, it never took root and died out by the 12th century CE.

The concepts expressed, however, not only contributed to the intellectual climate which allowed for the development of scientific thought but also anticipate the atheism of Critias of Athens (l. c. 460-403 BCE), the hedonistic school of Aristippus Cyrene (l. c. 435-356 BCE) and, most famously, the work of Epicurus (l. 341-270 BCE) and his development of “enlightened hedonism” at his school in Athens. These thinkers, and those who followed them, would influence the empiricist and utilitarian philosophies of the 19th century CE and the existential movement of the 20th century CE. Charvaka, therefore, was a belief system far ahead of its time even if it did not directly influence these later systems.

The Vedic Period & Charvaka
Charvaka was a response to the accepted religious vision of India at the time based on the Vedas and his period was estimated to be 600 BC . The Vedas are the principal religious texts which inform Hinduism (known to adherents as Sanatan Dharma, “Eternal Order” or “Eternal Path”). The word Veda means “knowledge” and the four Vedas – Rig Veda, Sama Veda, Yajur Veda, and Atharva Veda – are believed to relate the essential knowledge one needs to understand the Eternal Order of the universe and one’s place in the world.

These texts are considered Shruti (“what is heard”) by orthodox Hindus in that they are believed to have been “spoken” by the Universe through vibrations at some point in the distant past and “heard” by sages, in meditative states, sometime before c. 1500 BCE. These sages preserved the messages in oral form until they were written down during the Vedic Period (c. 1500 – c. 500 BCE) with other texts (including the Upanishads) which commented on and clarified them.

The vision of the Vedas gave rise to the religious/philosophical movement known as Brahmanism which maintained the world operated according to certain set rules, which were observable and demonstrable, and the existence of these rules, known as rita (“order”) argued for a rule-maker. This rule-maker was determined to be an incomprehensibly great being who had both created and was the Universe, and they called this Brahman.

Brahman could not be grasped by individual mortal minds, however, and so it was further determined that each human being carried a spark of this divine being within them known as the Atman and the purpose of life was to realize union of the Atman with Brahman. One did so by performing one’s duty (dharma) in accordance with right action (karma) to achieve liberation (moksha) and freedom from the cycle of rebirth and death. People could either embrace the pursuit of self-actualization and union (through which they would become better versions of themselves) or reject the divine truth and suffer accordingly in this life and each which would follow until they finally embraced the path of Divine Love and order.

The Vedas were chanted by the priestly class in Sanskrit, the language the works had been “heard” and composed in. The people who heard these chants did not understand Sanskrit and had to take the priests’ word for these texts being directly from God. Religious and philosophical schools who accepted the Vedas as a spiritual authority were known as astika (“there exists”) and so also accepted the existence of the Atman, Brahman, and the rest of the Vedic vision. Those who did not accept any of these were known as nastika (“there does not exist”). Nastika schools of thought included Jainism, Buddhism, and Charvaka.

BRHASPATI’S VISION EXPRESSED HIS BELIEF THAT THE PURPOSE OF LIFE WAS TO ENJOY IT TO THE GREATEST EXTENT WITHOUT FEAR OF PUNISHMENT IN THIS LIFE OR ANY OTHER.
Based on comments, criticisms, and remarks from later texts, Brhaspati thought it absurd that people would accept the word of the priests that these incomprehensible texts were the word of God and, more so, that they would consistently follow the rules, rituals, penances, and proscriptions the priests set down when it seemed clear this was all just a clever means by which the upper-class priests could live well at the expense of the lower class who had been tricked into accepting their fables as truths.

There is no way to actually know what motivated Brhaspati, nor even what his initial actions were in defiance of orthodox belief, but it seems that, at some point, he either preached a new vision or composed a text which expressed his belief that the purpose of life was to enjoy it to the greatest extent without fear of punishment in this life or any other because the life one was living clearly had no divine governor and one would not be granted another.

Beliefs & Arguments
Charvaka’s primary objection to the Vedic vision was that it could not be proven; it had to be accepted on faith and that faith was encouraged by a priestly class which was clearly benefiting from it at the expense of others. Sacrifices, gifts, and penitential gestures enriched the priests while contributing to the poverty of the lower class. This enrichment was made possible by an unprovable claim that the priests knew the Ultimate Truth which, if accepted, guaranteed one a more prosperous, fulfilling existence in this life and a blissful reunion with God after death. The fear of what lay beyond death, the prospect of endless incarnations of struggle, life after life after life, encouraged people to accept the priests’ claims in the hope that they were true; but, Charvaka claimed, they were not true because they lacked any substantive proof.

This objection led to the foundational Charvakan belief that only direct perception of anything, whatsoever, could establish truth and, further, that which could not be perceived or recognized by the senses could not possibly exist. As noted, there were other nastika schools of thought, Jainism and Buddhism, which developed alongside Charvaka which also rejected the Vedic vision but Charvaka differed from these significantly, as scholar John M. Koller notes:

Charvaka is the only completely materialistic system; all the others accept ways of spiritual life. Jainism, for example, attempts to show the way out of karmic bondage. It emphasizes a life of nonhurting that culminates in final release from bondage through meditative self-realization. Buddhism presents an analysis of the nature and causes of human suffering and presents the eightfold path as a cure for suffering.

Charvaka, conversely, claims that suffering is simply the privation of pleasure and the cure for this is the pursuit of sensual enjoyment. There is no duty one owes to anyone or anything except one’s self and no “karmic debt” one can accrue because there is no God to keep any kind of tally of one’s deeds or misdeeds. What one sees in life is all there is to life, Charvaka claims, and religious precepts, rules, and rituals are simply a means by which the strong and clever enable their own pursuit of pleasure.

Charvaka rejected religious cosmology on the grounds that there was simply no need to speculate on the creation of the universe. Such pursuits were a waste of time because there was no way one could ever know how the universe came to be. One could conclude, through observation, that nature regenerated and reproduced itself according to natural laws. It was therefore logical to conclude that, however the cosmos came into being, it had developed according to this same sort of law. Knowing how the universe began could not possibly enrich one’s life in any way and so cosmology could be safely discarded.

Epistemology was considered equally useless because one recognized truth through perception and there was no reason to investigate how one knew that one was holding a large stone when it was obvious one was holding a large stone. They therefore rejected the religious pramanas (“sources or proofs of knowledge”), especially inference and personal testimony. Inference could not be relied upon for establishing truth because, unlike direct perception, one’s inference could be wrong.

The example most commonly used in discussing Charvaka’s problem with inference is the presence of smoke as proof of fire. One sees smoke coming from a building’s window and infers that there must be fire in that room, but this is not necessarily so; someone in that room could be cleaning out a fireplace or stove, stirring up soot which blows out the window in such a way that it appears to an observer as smoke. Testimony, therefore, is equally unreliable since someone seeing what they thought was smoke from a window would be likely to report that the building was on fire when, actually, the smoke they claimed to have seen was not smoke at all.

Ethical systems were also rejected because they were defined by so-called “moral laws” which were simply another set of fables created by the priests to control others and enrich themselves. What was good in life was what felt good to the individual and what was bad was what felt bad. Ethical systems only complicated this very simple truth, denied people pleasure, burdened them with guilt, and did nothing else except contribute to the control of the many by the few. Anticipating the work of Jeremy Bentham (l. 1748-1832 CE) and John Stuart Mill (l. 1806-1873 CE) by centuries, Charvaka would say that “right behavior” is that which produces the greatest good for the greatest number of people and “wrong behavior” is that which causes the greatest amount of pain.

The concept of “good” here would be understood as “pleasure”. Evil, as the opposite of Good, was recognized as simply the absence of pleasure. The inability to pursue one’s individual pleasure encouraged one to engage in acts to remove obstacles to that pleasure and this is when people initiated or participated in acts which others condemned as illegal and punished the perpetrators for. Those who administered the punishments, however, were no more virtuous than those who had committed the crime; the authorities were simply trying to maintain their own level of pleasure at the expense of those who had been denied.

Similarity to Later Systems
These same concepts were developed, most likely independently, in ancient Greece and elsewhere. Although the Athenian politician Critias never established a formal school, his extant work echoes the same vision as Brhaspati’s. Critias wrote that religion is nothing more than a means whereby the strong controlled the weak, enriching themselves by maintaining laws which operated for their benefit. The philosophy of Aristippus of Cyrene is nearly identical to Charvaka in that he believed the noblest goal one could dedicate one’s self to in life was the pursuit of pleasure.

Aristippus believed in living for the moment and enjoying one’s self as much as one could. His philosophy is often compared to that of the Chinese hedonist philosopher Yang Zhu (l. 440-360 BCE) who also believed religion was an artificial construct to control people and worrying about what defined a “right action” and a “wrong action” was a waste of time when one could be enjoying one’s self doing whatever one wanted.

The best-known hedonist, of course, is Epicurus who also believed that the pursuit of pleasure should be one’s highest goal. Epicurus’ philosophy, however, was actually far from the kind of hedonism championed by Charvaka or by Aristippus or Yang Zhu. To Epicurus, the pursuit of pleasure meant enjoying fully what one had without worrying about what one did not. Pleasure produced happiness only as long as it could be enjoyed without stress or concern which meant one should observe moderation in all things in order to live as long as possible in optimal health to enjoy as much as one could.

Whether Charvaka influenced any of these later writers is unknown but it is interesting to note the Charvakan concepts expressed in other cultures. The Greek writers would lay the groundwork for later writers such as the Scottish empiricist David Hume (l. 1711-1776 CE) among whose claims is that, if one were never told that God exists, one would find nothing in the world to suggest such an entity. The utilitarian philosophy developed by John Stuart Mill bears remarkable similarities to Charvaka and, with some differences, so do the works of the existentialists, notably Jean-Paul Sartre (l. 1905-1980 CE) and his followers.

Conclusion
These later writers and philosophical systems were not received well by the establishment when they first appeared and, certainly, not by organized religion. The religious response in ancient India to Charvaka followed this same paradigm. Charvaka’s rejection of religion and insistence on the pursuit of pleasure undermined the authority of the priests as well as the upper class but, just as importantly, is said to have disturbed the status quo by denying people hope of an ultimate meaning in life and security after death.

Charvaka’s claim that there was no afterlife promising a final reward for the worthy could hardly have been welcome news. Brhaspati’s audience, as all humans, recognized death as a certainty and had been taught that good behavior led to a blissful afterlife while those who had behaved badly would be punished. Charvaka promised nothing of the kind; there was only one end for the virtuous and the wicked and nothing one did in life could alter the fact that one’s path led directly to certain extinction.

Although it was referred to as Lokayata – “the people’s philosophy” – there is no evidence it was ever widely adopted. Scholar P. Ram Manohar notes that it “never became established as a predominant school of thought” (Paranjape, 5). It seems this term was coined to mean “popular” as in lacking intellectual weight (as per the phrase “popular opinion” as opposed to one more informed) and, finally, as a kind of synonym for materialism which denied the value of higher pursuits in life.

Charvaka, however, was far from “uninformed” in that it inspired the development of the scientific method in India by encouraging direct observation of phenomena, a hypothesis created to explain said phenomena, and conclusions based on empirical corroboration of that hypothesis. Manohar notes that Charvaka “exerted a powerful influence and helped to achieve a balance between the spiritual and material worldviews” (Paranjape, 5). Even though Brhaspati’s system never replaced orthodoxy, it certainly influenced the intellectual landscape of India.

Maladies such as sickness and injury or the welcome experiences of prosperity and unexpected good fortune came to be understood as naturally occurring instead of divine acts to punish or reward behavior. The Dharma Shastras and works like the Arthashastra were made possible because of the recognition of the value of Charvakan materialism in modified form. Even so, Charvaka was eventually outdistanced by Hindu, Jain, and Buddhist systems which offered a more hopeful vision of the afterlife and meaning in one’s daily existence. Charvaka’s message, however, would change the way people saw the world even if they could not fully embrace its vision of a life lived fully and solely according to one’s own personal values without expectation of reward or fear of punishment.

ELEMENT’S OF ASTROLOGY

THE ZODAIC

The earth rotates on its own axis and this rotation is done in one day or 24 hours

Earth revolves round the sun and this takes one year for one complete revolution. The

path of the earth round the sun is called the ecliptic and the zodiac is a belt in the

neighborhood of celestial equator extending 8 degree on either side of the ecliptic and

measuring 360 degrees.

The zodiac surrounding the earth is circular in shape and is divided in to 12 equal

parts of 30 degrees each for the purpose of Astrology and each division is called sign

(RASIS) and are named as under.

HINDU NAME AND CORRESPONDING ENGLISH NAME

1. Mesha Aries (0-30 deg)

2. Vrishaba Taurus (30-60 deg)

3. Mithuna Gemini (60-90 deg)

4. Karkataka (Kataka) Cancer (90-120 deg)

5. Simha Leo (120-150 deg)

6. Kanya Virgo (150-180 deg)

7. Thula Libra (180-210 deg)

8. Vrischika Scorpio (210-240 deg)

9. Dhanus Sagittarius (240-270 deg)

10. Makara Capricorn (270-300 deg)

11. Kumbha Aquarius (300-330 deg)

12. Meena Pisces (330-360 deg)

Each sign derived its name from its resemblance to the group of stars formed in

each division.

The Zodiac is divided in to 27 nakshatra zones (or) constellations of 13 deg 20’

min each for the purpose of Astrology. These Nakshatras are fixed stars and selfilluminated.

They are named as under:

The nakshatras (or) constellations are divided into 4 equal parts and each part is

called nakshatra pada. Rasi is equal to 9-nakshatra pada. The zodiacal sign and the

division of constellations are shown below in a diagram .

THE HOROSCOPE

A Horoscope is a map of the heavens for a given moment which may be the birth

time of the child (or) the time of an event taking place (or) the time of the query.

Horoscope will contain the details of planetary position, Rasi chart, Navamsa chart and

Dasa Bhukti details. Horoscopes are prepared with the help of Almanacs (or)

Ephemeris.

Rasi chart is a map of heaven which shows the planetary position at given

moment of time of birth of child (or) time of inquiry.

Ex: (1)

Lagna means the rising Sign at the time of birth. Rasi means the sign occupied

by the moon at the time of birth. In the above chart Lagna is Dhanus. Rasi is Simha

(because Moon is in Simha). The rasis are also called Houses (or) Bhavas. The Lagna

sign will represent the first house. When we count from Lagna clock-wise, the second

sign is called second house. Like wise the twelve houses are considered while analyzing

the horoscope.

Navamsa chart is a ready reckoner through which we can easily find-out the

Nakshatra pada in which the planets are posited. Navamsa chart is also drawn in the

similar manner of Rasi Chart .

Navamamsa chart

NECESSITY OF CONVERSION OF RECORDED TIME OF BIRTH INTO LOCAL MEAN TIME:

All the births are recorded in Standard time. Standard time is a uniform clock time

used throughout the country, based upon the local mean time of a certain geographical

meridian passing through the country and arbitrarily chosen by law, for the sake of

convenience and facility. All watches and clocks are accordingly set to show the time.

Countries with large land area and several meridians passing through that country

will have different local mean time depending on the longitude of the place. Therefore,

the time of birth recorded from the clock is not the actual time of birth.

Local mean time at any given meridian is the true mean time at all places which lie on

that meridian, irrespective of the latitude. Therefore, it is necessary to convert the

Standard time (clock time) into local mean time. To convert the Standard time into local

mean time add (or) subtract 4 minutes to every degree of longitude according to the

place is in East or West of Standard Meridian. In India the Standard meridian is 82 deg

30 min East of Greenwich.

CASTING OF HOROSCOPE

Details required for casting the horoscope:

1. Date of birth

2. Time of birth

3. Place of birth

I step: Convert the recorded time of birth into local mean time.

II step: Find out the date of birth in the Almanac in a particular year and note

down all the details given for that day in the Almanac. In most of the

Almanacs position of the planets are given in Nakshtra Padas and by

copying them, Rasi and Navamsa chart can easily be drawn.

TO FIND OUT JANMA LAGNA OR ASCENDANT:

III step: In some almanac’s (Panchanga’s) every month, for every date the

beginning or ending times of lagnas will be given in a table form. By

observing those tables the lagna can be fixed for the time of birth of the

child.

In some Panchanga’s the date-wise tables are not given for different lagnas. But

either the balance portion of rising sign on every day of a month at sunrise will be given

or the elapsed portion of rising sign at sunrise will be given. If the elapsed portion of

rising sign at sunrise is given, from this balance portion of that lagna is to be found out

by deducting the elapsed portion from the total duration of rising sign, then by adding the

duration of subsequent lagnas, the lagna at the time of birth can be found out . From that

we can find out the elapsed portion and balance portion of the lagna at the time of birth.

This is explained in the next paragraph.

Note down the time of sunrise on the day of birth. Deduct sun rise time from birth

time. So you will get the elapsed time from sunrise in hours. Convert the hours into

Ghatikas (or) Nazhikas.

24 hours – 60 Ghatikas

24 minutes – 1 Ghatika

24 seconds – 1 Vighati

Example:

For instance the native was born at Chennai at 11-31 AM on 14th day of April 1997

corresponding to the cycle year Prabhava in Solar Month Mesha (Chaithirai) 1st Tuesday.

The Sun rise at Chennai on 14.4.1997 6-01 AM

The birth time of the native 11-31 AM

Deducting the sun rise time from the birth time we get 5 hours and 30 minutes.

5 hours is equal to 12 Ghatikas 30 Vighatikas

30 minutes is equal to 1 Ghatikas 15 Vighatikas

Total 13 Ghatikas 45 Vighatikas

Therefore, the birth has taken place at 13 Ghatikas 45 Vighatikas. (This is

called Udhayadhi Nazhikas.

TO FIND OUT THE BALANCE OF RISING SIGN ON THE DAY OF BIRTH AT SUNRISE:

(i) If the Almanac is referred, you can find out the Ghatikas remaining to be covered

(Balance portion of rising sign at sunrise) by the sun in the solar month when the

child was born against solar date of birth.

(ii) Without referring to the Almanac, we ourselves can work out the balance portion

of rising sign at sunrise. On the first day of Mesha (Solar month Chittirai) the first

deg of Mesha rises in the Eastern horizon at sun rise and the remaining signs

gradually ascend till the next day at sun rise, On the second day of mesha the

sun rise will take place in the second degree of Mesha. The Sunrise takes place

in the last degree of Zodiac on 30th day of Meena, when the solar year ends. Thus

the Lagna (or) Ascendant is the particular point of ecliptic considered with

reference to particular horizon. Certain period of time is allotted to each of the

Zodiacal Signs to rise, the duration of such periods will vary depending upon the

latitude of the place. This is called Rasimana.

The degree and the sign in which; the sun rises at the time of birth will be

ascendant at that particular time. From the Almanac find out in which solar month the

child is born. Note down the total duration of rising Sign (Rasimana) for the given solar

date of that month for the given latitude of the birth place, calculate the balance of rising

sign at sunrise on the day of birth and note down the total duration of subsequent signs

also. Rasimana is given in Ghatikas and Vighakitas. Divide the total duration of rising

sign (Rasimana) by the total number of days of solar month. You will get the movement

of sun in one day. Multiply it by number of solar days crossed by sun (i.e. upto previous

day of birth) till sun rise on the day of birth. Add the duration of next Signs rising with the

Balance of rising sign on the day of birth (solar day) till you get the time of birth in

Ghatikas. Find out in which sign the Lagna falls. Note down duration of Lagna sign.

Divide 30 deg by total duration of the Lagna sign and Multiply it by the time of birth in

Ghatikas after sun rise. You will get the degrees and minutes passed by Lagna. We

know that each sign is composed of 30 deg and 9 Quarters of constellation. So one

quarter of sign will measure 30/9=3 1/3 deg (3deg 20 minutes). By which we can easily

find out in which Nakshatra pada the Lagna falls.

POSITION OF THE MOON

Examine the Almanac and find out the constellation (or) ruling star at the time and

day of birth. Find out the total duration of the star. Divide it by 4, you will get duration of

one Nakshatra pada. Calculate the balance portion of the Nakshatra at the time, and day

of birth by deducting the elapsed portion of Nakshatra from total duration of the

Nakshatra. Find out in which Nakshatra pada, the ruling star falls by working out number

of Nakshatra pada elapsed at the time of birth.

DASA BHUKTI

Divide the total Dasa period by total duration of the ruling star and multiple it by

balance portion of ruling star. You will get the balance of Dasa period in years, months,

and days.

NAVAMSHA

Work out the total number of Nakshatra padas from Aswini 1st pada to the star

pada in which the planet is posited. Divide the total no. of padas by 12. Count the

reminder from Mesha you will get the Navamsa sign in which that planet is posited.

IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER FOR STUDYING HOROSCOPE

1. All Planets move from one Rasi to the other in clockwise direction and Rahu and

Kethu always move in anti-clockwise direction.

2. THE ORDER OF STRENGTH OF THE PLANETS

a) Rahu and Kethu – Strongest

b) Surya

c) Chandra

d) Sukra

e) Guru

f) Sani

g) Kuja

h) Budha — Weakest

3. THE ORDER OF POSITIONAL STRENGTH OF THE PLANETS

a) Exaltation Sign (UCHA STHANA) — Strongest

b) Moola Thrikona Sign

c) Own Sign (SWASTHANA)

d) Friendly Sign (MITHRU STHAN)

e) Neutral Sign

f) Enimical Sign (SATRUSTHANA)

g) Debilitation Sign (NEECHASTHANA)-Weakest

4. COMBUSTION OF PLANET (ASTANGATHA)

If a planet and Sun are in the same quarter of a Star, then that Planet is said to be in

Combustion. A combust planet is capable to produce common type of results. It is

true that a combust planet is week. But it is not true that its effects become nil.

Venus and Mercury have no Astanga Dosha.

5. PLANETORY WAR (GRAHA YUDHHA)

Except Sun, if any planet is in association with MARS (KUJA) then that plane is said

to be in planetary war.

6. DEFEATED PLANET

When a planet is in association with an enemy planet and its degrees are less than

that of enemy planet then that planet is said to be a defeated planet.

7. WINNING PLANET

When a planet is in association with an enemy planet and its degrees are more than that of enemy planet, then that planet is said to be a winning planet.

8. RETROGRESSION OF PLANETS (VAKRATHWA)

Generally all planets move from one Rasi to the other Rasi in clockwise direction

and Rahu and Kethu moving in anti-clockwise direction. Some times we see that

a planet, instead of moving in clockwise direction in the Zodiac seems to be

moving in anti-clockwise direction. Whenever a planet is moving in anti-clockwise

direction in the Zodiac, it is said to be in retrogression.

Sun and moon will never Retrograde

Rahu and Kethu are always in Retrogression.

8. RETRO-DIRECT MOTION

Whenever a planet assumes retrograde motion in a Zodiacal sign, continue to

move in anti-clockwise motion in that particular sign for some time, stops its anticlockwise

motion and returns to its original position with clockwise motion. Till

the planet returns to the exact longitude in degrees, minutes, seconds where from

it became retrograde, it is said to be retro-direct motion. It is only after it moves

clockwise from the exact location of retrogression that is said to be in direct

motion.

9. STATIONARY PLANETS (STAMBANA)

The planets seem to remain stationary for some time after being in motion. This

planetary condition is known as STAMBANA.

10. Generally the signs are counted clockwise from Mesha to Meena, in Rasi chart used

in Tamilnadu. The signs are counted anti-clockwise from Mesha to Meena in Rasi

Chart used in Andhra Pradesh and North India.

11. Rahu and Kethu will be moving always 180 deg opposite from each other in the

Zodiac. Mercury is always moving either in the same sign or 12th sign or 2nd sign from

Sun. It will never move away more than one sign either in the rear or in the front side

from Sun. Venus will be always moving between 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 11th or 12th sign from Sun. It

will never move away more than two signs either in the rear or in the front side from Sun.

12. Before making an attempt to predict, it is desirable to verify three or four past events

of the natives live. This will be of use to gauge the strength of the planets as well as the

correctness of the planetary position. In a way this will be helpful to correct the planetary

positions as Almanacs or Panchanga’s differ in giving planetary position.

Natal Chart means Birth Chart. This is prepared based on the time, date, month, and

year of Birth of the native.

11. TRANSIT CHART

49

This chart is prepared at the time of consultation i.e. the time, date, month and year

of consultation.

12. PARIVARTHANA YOGA (PLANETARY EXCHANGE)

We know the ruling planet of each Rasi. Some times we can observe that the planet

(A) is occupying the Rasi owned by the planet (B) and the planet (B) occupies the

Rasi owned by the planet (A). This phenomenon is called planetary exchange or

Parivarthana Yoga in astrology. For example: When Mars is located in Venus’s

house VRISHABHA and Venus is located in Mars’s house VRICHIKA, it is understood

that the planet Mars and Venus are involved in Planetary exchange. This yoga is

given more importance in Nadi astrology, because unexpected events take place due

this Parivarthana yoga.

3. A planet will always give Karakatva results of the conjoining (or) aspecting planets.

4. Irrespective of the Sign in which a planet is located it will give beneficial results if

friendly planets are aspecting the considered planet from the following places.

1 – 5 – 9 (Same direction) from considered planet

3 – 7 – 11 (Opposite direction) from considered planet

2 – 12 (front and rear) from considered planet

It will give bad results if enemy planets are aspecting the considered planet from the

above places.

50

5. If a planet is not conjoined with or aspected by any other planet (the above aspects) it

will give the Karakatva results of Rasi (Lord) in which it is placed.

6. Even though a planet is not conjoined with or aspected by any other planet, it will give

beneficial results, if it is involved in planetary exchange with friendly planet and

conjoins the friendly planet or getting the aspect of friendly planet after exchanging

the house. It will give bad results if it is involved in planetary exchange with enemy

planet and conjoins the enemy planet or getting the aspect of enemy planet after

exchanging the house.

7. Whenever a planet is located in the same star pada in which Sun is located, it is said

to be in combustion. The planet will not give much result. If the combust planet

involved in planetary exchange with friendly planet or conjoining the friendly planet or

getting the aspect of friendly planet after exchanging the house. It will give beneficial

result. If the combusted planet is involved in planetary exchange with enemy planet

or conjoining an enemy planet or getting the aspect of enemy planet after exchanging

the house, it will give bad results.

8. When a debilitated planet is involved in planetary exchange and conjoins the friendly

planet or getting the aspect of friendly planet after exchanging the house, we must

assume that the debilitation is cancelled (Neechabhanga). If it conjoins enemy planet

or getting the aspect of enemy planet after exchanging the house, it will give bad

results.

9. Even though a planet is in debilitation, if friendly planets are aspecting the

debilitated planet from the following places you must assume that the debilitation is

cancelled.

1 – 5 – 9 (same direction) from debilitated planet

3 – 7 – 11 (opposite direction) from debilitated planet

2 – 12 (front and rear) from debilitated planet

If enemy planets are aspecting the debilitated planet from the above places, it will

give bad results only.

10. When an exalted planed is involved in planetary exchange and conjoins an enemy

planet or getting the aspect of an enemy planet after exchanging the house, it will

give bad results. Hence we have to assume that the exaltation is cancelled.

(Uchabhanga). If it conjoins a friendly planet or getting the aspect of friendly planet

after exchanging the house, it will give beneficial results.

11. A retrograde planet will always aspect the rear sign with half aspect.

12. Retrograde planet will give beneficial results if a friendly planet is placed in 12th sign

from retro planet. It will give bad results if an enemy planet is placed in 12th sign from

retro planet.

51

13. If a debilitated planet is in retro motion and if a friendly planet is placed in 12th sign

from retro planet it will give beneficial results. Hence, we have to assume that the

debilitation is cancelled. If an enemy planet is placed in 12th sign from the retro

planet, it will give bad results only.

14. If an exalted planet is in retro motion and an enemy planet is placed in 12th sign from

retro planet it will give bad results. If a friendly planet is placed in the 12th sign from

retro planet it will give good results only.

15. If a planet is placed along with Rahu then that planet looses its strength. Even if it is a

exalted planet.

16. Always consider the planetary Karakatvas for interpreting the charts
