Uttara (your Son)

[Guest guest]

Dear Uttara,

 

You Wrote:

*I was using the Goravani calculations for 365.2425 solar day in my

post a few days ago. However, I am not convinced that this is the

proper calculation for the chart.*

 

Since the calendar in use throughout the world is the Gregorian

calendar (365.2425 days per year), there's no earthly reason to use

the 360 day lunar year to calculate the dasas. It simply beggars

belief that some people will actually use this...where on earth is a

year measured as 360 days?

 

*I am confident that the baby was not born any later than

8:16am and not earleir than 8:10am.*

 

The uncertainty of time is more of a problem than the discrepancy

between the different softwares. I too found the difference between

GJ and PL off-putting. However, after watching the transits closely

over the years, I've come to rely solely on PL.

As time doesn't permit me the luxury of rectifying a chart, all I

can do is look at the chart using the time you have given me i.e.

08:16

 

*I guess it also depends if one is using 0* as being firmly in

Capricorn with an equal house system vs. the houses starting at the

middle of Sag.*

 

As per Vedic system of astrology, the sign which has manifested as a

bhava is from 00:00 to 30:00 degrees. The house/bhava encompasses

the whole sign! In Western astrology (and KP system) the placidus

method of house division is commonly used. However, according to the

tenets of Vedic astrology, Janma Kundali (Birth Chart) is based

firmly on the whole sign/whole bhava principle....this is an act of

creation rather than an intellectual assumption.

 

At the risk of repeating myself, as I've discussed this point many

times in the past; we're told that, at the moment of birth the

navagrahas manifest (are born/recreated) as a new entity, and the

signs of the zodiac manifest (are born/recreated) as the twelve

bhavas. This is the cornerstone of Jyotish and the premise from

which we declare "Aham Brahmasmi" (I am the Totality, I am the

Universe).

 

Because KP (for instance) has adopted the Western placidus system of

house division it cannot be truly classified as Vedic astrology. Nor

can any other system that deviates from the basic principles.

 

*Ok, picture me at my computer pulling my hair out and screaming

AHHHHH!!!!!!!*

 

This comes from trying to marry Jyotish with other systems.

Parashara is really quite simple if you follow the basic rules and

learn to differentiate between the Parashara and Jaimini methods

that have been bunched together (unfortunately) in

BPHS...misconceptions and confusion abounds when we attempt to mix

and match these systems. However there should be no confusion here

if we stick to the basic principles of Parashara.

 

I don't mean to give a lecture every time I come online, but it is

frustrating to see so many people still struggling with the basic

principles...

 

We can discuss the health issues of your son a little later, if

that's okay, as I now have to leave the computer for awhile,

unfortunately.

 

Best Wishes,

Mrs. Wendy

Dear Wendy,

 

Thank you for your clarifications on my recent post. Also, a big

thanks on the reaffirmation of the basics.

 

Please see comments below.

To clarify any confusion; I was concerned about the software

calculations for Dasha timing with a Moon Capricorn at 0* more than

using a calculation of 360 solar year.

 

Uttara:

I am really comfortable using the 8:16am time. My efforts to rectify

my son's chart do not sufficiently equal a difference in Dasha timing

per his life events or experiences. Nor does changing the time a few

minutes alter his Capricorn Moon degree.

 

I believe my anxiety was trying to give a detailed explanation in

case there was any hesitancy of correct birth time in the future.

 

Wendy:

>I too found the difference between GJ and PL off-putting. However,

Thank you for this confirmation. After writing my post the other

day, I have continued to study my son's chart and have found that

part of my frustration was due in part to using the GJ calculation

vs. the PL or Jhora.

Wendy, Thank you also for this confirmation and the important

reminder to eliminate the clutter of confusion by concentrating on

one system and not allowing one to be misdirected by too much

information, thereby unintentionally, mixing different principles

even in the Vedic system.

 

Sometimes to, too much detail to cover all the possibilities I may

have overlooked or fallen short of creates a problem in itself. I

believe my post reflected this with the various options I laid out.

 

Also, being ones own astrologer often is very subjective and

illusionary, especially under emotional situations and never a good

idea. More so, if one is not proficient.

 

After reading your post, I am more confident now and happy with the

calculation of Moon Capricorn 1* with its current MA Mo dasha. My

anxiety level has been quelled.

 

You continue to be most helpful and I am appreciative of your efforts

and interest :-).

 

I hope David is continuing to improve.

 

Uttara
