NOTES Sa denotes 7, Ma shows 5, 75 reading reversely we have 57, divided by, 12 will give us a balance of 9 and Dhanus is the 9th Navamsa from Mesha. Aeroplanes may be safely included in these falls. Dangers are indicated by these falls.
SU. 11.-Jalachara khechara kheta kandu dushtagranthayascha riphay. If the Atmakaraka joins Makara the person will have troubles and sorrows from aquatic animals from fierce birds, skin diseases, large wounds and glandular expansions.
NOTES Ri 2 and Pha 2 = 22, divide this by 12 we have a remainder of 10, meaning Makaramsa as it is the 10th from Meshamsa. There will be troubles from Khetas. Grahas have two important significations, viz., planets and evil spirits : some read the sutra as Buchara instead of Khechara, and include such wild animals as lions, tigers, boars and other fierce animals found wandering on the earth. Planets and evil spirits occupy the higher regions. Kha means the sky or the higher sphere.
SU. 12.–Tatakadayo dharmay. If the Atmakaraka occupies Kumbha Navamsa the person will do charities in the shape of constructing wells, tracks, topes or gardens, temples and dharmasalas or chatrams.
NOTES Dha stands for 9 and Ma denotes 5, thus we get 95 reversing we get 59. Divided by 12 we get remainder 11, denoting Kumbha, the Navamsa 11 th from Mesha.
SU. 13.-Uchhe dharmanityata kaivalyam cha. If the Atmakaraka occupies Meenamsa, the person will be fond of vinuous deeds and charities, and will take residence in Swargadi Lokas or will attain to the final bliss or what is called by the Sanskrit writers Moksha or final emancipation or freedom from rebirths.
NOTES U stands for 0, Cha denotes 6, we get 06, reading in the reverse order we get 60. Divide this by 12 the balance will be 12 and therefore Meena Navamsa is indicated by the term uchcha. Among the Yogis and real Vedantists their sole aim or final goal is to get rid of these punarjanmas or constant birth and get final assimilation with Para Brahma.
The old commentators have offered some valuable suggestions. I shall quote them here for ready reference. If the Atmakaraka is in a beneficial Navamsa or if beneficial planets are in Kendras from the Navamsa he occupies’ the person will become very wealthy or a ruler. If the next planet to Atmakaraka occupies a beneficial sign or Navamsa, or found in his own house or beneficial sign or in exaltation or in good Navamsas, he will have residence, after death, in Swargalokas according to merit. If both of them are auspiciously situated, the person will get good Bliss and after a prosperous and happy career will go to Heaven.
If they have mixed positions, conjunctions and aspects, he will have some good and some bad. If both of them are badly situated combined and aspected, he will suffer miseries, poverty and will take residence, after death, in various Hells enumerated in the Hindu Sastras like Kumbhipatha, Andha, Tamisra, etc.
One who resides in Brahmaloka enjoys superior Bliss to that which he can have in Devaloka. When evil planets predominate the temperament will be mixed and his deeds will be bad and sinful. When benefics predominate they produce favourable results both here and also enhance his pleasure in Heaven after his death. As for the comparison of pleasures, see Anandavalli Upanishad and also numbers 11 and 12 Of VOL. 19 Of THE ASTROLOGICAL MAGAZINE.
SU. 14.-Tatra ravou rajakaryaparaha. If the Sun occupies the Karakamsa, the person will be fond of public service and will work in political activities.
NOTES Here it means, that Ravi must be in conjunction with the Atmakaraka in the Navamsa. His success here may be determined both by the nature of the Navamsa and also by his relation to the Atmakaraka who may change to be his friend, bosom friend, neutral or enemy or bitter enemy. All these different stages are suggested by the Maharishi in compliance with the general principles of Astrology, which he enumerates.
SU. 15. -Poornendusukrayorbhogee vidyajeevee cha. If Full Moon and Venus join Atmakaraka in the Navamsa, the person will command great wealth and all comforts attendant on wealth and he will also earn money and live by the profession of education.
NOTES In all these the strength, position and association of Atmakaraka will have great influence in determining the rank and position in the line. A school authority will be great or small as he gets fat or low salary.
SU. 16.-Dhatuvadee kountayudho vahnijeevee cha bhoume. When Kuja joins Atmakaraka in the Navamsa, the person becomes great in the preparation of various medical mixtures, will bear arms like kuntayudha and other weapons, and live by profession involving preparations in or near fire.
NOTES The gunners, cooks, engine drivers and those engaged in various preparations in or near fire are indicated. Alchemy comes in this line of work.
