Golden Principal Of In Predictive Technology

BENEFICALLY PLACED PLANETS
1. Planets placed in exaltation, own or friendly signs and in angles from each other becomes mutually highly beneficial planets. If such planets are placed in angles from the ascendant (Lagna) the combination becomes all the more powerful. This is further accentuated if one of the planets is in the tenth house. This gives rise to rajyoga. Such planets, even if by nature antagonistic and malefic to each other, will work for each other. Their association, aspect on each other or any other type of sambandha will not be taken to be adverse. Their results would be experienced during the mutual major-periods sub periods, and sub-sub periods of the planets. However, as stated above the planets have to be placed in exaltation, own or friendly signs, otherwise the results will not be forthcoming as expected.
RESULTS OF PLANETS IN
DIFFERENT SIGNS (RASIS)
2. The results set out for each planet in different signs are modified according to the nature and strength of the dispositor. If Saturn is placed in Aries and Mars is exalted in Capricorn, results that Saturn is likely to give will not be so bad as in the case when Mars is in its sign of debilitation or in an inimical one.
EFFECTS OF A COMBUST PLANETS
3. A planet is taken to be COMBUST when it is very close to the Sun. A beneficial planet when combust becomes powerless is incapable of giving good results. It may give some adverse results. Its basic properties will suffer. A combust malefic planet is likely to give worse than normal results. Following are the degrees within which planets become combust when they come near the Sun: You must keep in mind the combust malefic degrees.

(i) Mars 17
(ii) Mercury 13
(iii) Jupiter 11
(iv) Venus 9
(v) Saturn 15
Generally the combustion of Mercury is not taken seriously since it is never farther than 28 degrees from the Sun. The Moon does not become combust.

VARGOTAMMA PLANETS

4.A planet is said to be VARGOTTAMA if it is in the same sign in the Navansha chart as the sign in which it is placed in the birth chart. If the planet is in a movable sign it will be vargottama if it is in the first ninth part of the sign, i.e., it is within 0 degrees 0 minutes and 3 degrees 20 minutes in the sign. For fixed signs the planet will be vargottama if it is in the middle ninth part of the sign, between 13 deg 20 min and 16 deg 40 min, and for common signs it will be vargottama if it is in the last ninth part of the sign, between 26 deg 40 min and 30 deg 0 min. The information regarding a vargottamma planet is tabulated as follows:
(i) Aries 0 deg 0 min-3 deg 20 min
(ii) Taurus 13 deg 20 min-16 deg 40 min
(iii) Gemini 26 deg 40 min-30 deg 0 min
(iv) Cancer 0 deg 0 min-3 deg 20 min
(v) Leo 13 deg 20 min-16 deg 40 min
(vi) Virgo 26 deg 40 min-30 deg 0 min
(vii) Libra 0 deg 0 min-3 deg 20 min
(viii) Scorpio 13 deg 20 min-16 deg 40 min
(ix) Sagittarius 26 deg 40 min-30 deg 0 min
(x) Capricorn 0 deg 0 min-3 deg 20 min
(xi) Aquarius 13 deg 20 min-16 deg 40 min
(xii) Pisces 26 deg 40 min-30 deg 0 min
A vargottama planet is as powerful as a planet in its own sign.

NATURE OF PLANETS

5.Following are the rules for determining the NATURE of a planet for a particular Ascendant (Lagna). The nature determined in this manner is also used for the determination of the nature of the sub-period and inter-period in a major-period:
(i)The owner of a triangular house- the first (for the purpose of ascertaining the nature of a planet the first house, which is both an angular and a triangular house, is taken as the latter), the fifth or the ninth house-is a beneficial planet.

HOUSE IST TO TRIANGULAR
(ii)The owner of an angular house will be neutral. Its nature will depend upon the ownership of the other house it owns. In case of a luminary, it will be neutral. A naturally malefic planet, like Mars or Saturn, owning an angular house will not give adverse results. A naturally beneficial planet, like Venus or some Jupiter, owning an angular house will not give favourable results, unless it also owns the first house, or some other good house. The Moon and Mercury are by themselves naturally beneficial planets. But if the Moon is waning and is within 72 degrees of the Sun, it will be a malefic planet. A waxing Moon close to the Sun will also be weak. Mercury, if influenced by a naturally malefic planet will be a malefic planet.
ANGULAR HOUSES

FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES
6. A planet owning either the third, sixth, or eleventh house will be a bad planet. A planet owning two of the above three houses, will be a very bad planet.
7. A planet owning the eighth house will be a malefic planet, unless it also owns the first house, and is placed in a house owned by it. If the planet owning the eighth house is a luminary, it will be neutral planet.
8. If a planet owns the second or twelfth house and another house, the nature of the planet will be determined according to the other house owned by the planet, since for the purpose of ascertaining the nature, the second and the twelfth houses are taken to be neutral.
9. A planet owning the second house will have the ability to terminate the life of the native when the longevity has come to an end. Such a planet is called a maraka planet. A naturally beneficial planet that owns the seventh house will be a maraka. This does not hold true for a naturally malefic planet.
10. A maraka planet owning a triangle will first give good results in its period, and may later and the life of the native. Such a maraka may be termed a good maraka.
11. A planet owning an angle and a triangle (including the first house) will be an excellent planet for the chart and shall be capable of giving the very best results in its periods.
12. A planet that owns two houses, one of which is a good house and the other an adverse house as above, shall be classified as good-but-impure planet. It must be kept in mind that in this case if the mooltrikona sign of the planet falls in an adverse house, the planet will have more malefic tendency in it. If on the other hand, the mooltrikona sign falls in a good house, the planet will have more beneficial tendency.
13. The fifth and ninth houses are the primary houses that give wealth. The seventh and tenth houses are givers of happiness- both for making as a business etc.
14. The houses of a category shall gain in strength with their distance from the ascendant. Thus among the triangular houses, the ninth house is more powerful than the fifth, and the fifth is more powerful than the first. Similarly, the eleventh house is more adverse than the sixth, and the sixth is stronger than the third, etc.
15. A planet owning a more powerful house will be able to overcome the influence of a planet owning a less powerful house. Thus a good combination formed by a planet owning the fifth house can be disturbed by the owner of the eleventh house, but not by that of the third house.
16. When the owners of an angle and a triangle join, aspect each other or form a 'sambandha' (connection) between themselves in any laid down manner, the combination shall be highly beneficial for the native.
17. A neutral planet in 'sambandha' (connection) with a planet will take on the nature of the planet with which it is in sambandha.
18. (a) A Node of the Moon will give results of the houses the planet with which it is in association owns. The Node will also give results of the house it occupies. The nature of the Node will be influenced by the nature of the planet with which it is associated. If there is no association, the nature will be determined by the sign and asterism occupied by Node.
(b) When the Node occupies a house it becomes the most powerful factor in giving the results of that house. Therefore, occupation of an adverse house by the Node will make it an adverse planet for the chart.
(c) The Node becomes an excellent planet when it occupies an angle and is associated with the owner of a triangle, or, it is placed in a triangle and is associated with the owner of an angle.
The above are some of the golden principles in the art of predictive astrology. Readers may please note that some of the principles may not work at all in modern times and in case of doubt on any point, may refer to other classics. The doubts and study made may be mailed to the Editor for consideration of Kailash Astro-Research Team.
To make this article comprehensive in itself, the following tables indicate how a planet is excellent, good or bad, neutral etc, for a particular Lagna from Aries to Pisces. The information about Marka planets for each Lagna shall prove to be useful for day to day predictions.
