Request for Ashtaka Varga Resouces

[Guest guest]

Dear friend,

 

>From ancient sources on astrology- Astakavarga seems to be a

compleste and all encompassing system of prediction. However

it is given the least importance in decisive matters like

prasna- owing to non-availability of the basic materials on

use and application of Astakavarge in Astrological treaties.

---------------------------

I am just sharing the little experience I have.

 

(1)Please calculate Astakavarga

on point to point basis

rather than calculating it

sign to sign

or house to house basis (this is my personal view)

 

(2) Please use some sort of Sodhana(deduction/ addition) to points

arrived at

for planets in exaltation sign/ debilition sign,

for combust planets,

planets that are eclipsed by Nodes

and that are in Mritavastha or Bridhavastha -

 

 

(3) Use care and discretion in Ekadhipatya Sodhana/Trikona Sodhana-

it may not always be compulsory- it is just done to turn the big

numbers to small and comfortable looking numbers- so better avoid it-

as per my personal experience

 

(4) You can modify the Astakavarga bindu arrived at on the basis of

the house/bhava where these points accumulate

 

(5) Rather than starting the Prastara Astakavarga from 0 degree of

every sign, you can calculate it from the Mahadasa lord's degree

position and get more accurate results

 

(6) Integrate the principle of Astakavarge into stellar dispositor

theory of Sage Satyacharya (Meena's Nadi/KP)

 

(7) The principle of Argala/ Rasi Drishti/Graha Drishti can also be

blended into it to arrive at a more conclusive and clear picture of

things.

 

 

As regards books, you can start with any good book such as that

By Dr. B.V. Raman(Shri Rajeshwari Publications, Bangalore) Dr. P.S.

Shastri(Ranjan Publication, New Delhi)

and the book titled 'Dots of Destiny' by Rajiv Jhanji

 

With best wishes,

 

Mandakini
