ARGALA & ASPECT

June 27, 2001

I just read your mail on Argala and some doubts cropped in my mind.... they are as follows:

Dear Gauranga! You are qualifying the indications of the 11 th house when you

say that the 9th house obstruct the gains from immoral activities. However, the

9th obstruct the 11th house intervention as it is. Why are you saying it only

obstruct the immoral activities? In my opinion 9th is the house of Dharma, the

duties and obligations towards the world whereas 11th is the house of desire,

which is takes away from one's own dharma (the activities might not be

immoral).

Now the 1st house also gives an > argala, which is > obstructed by the 7th.

JAYA JAGANNATHADear Gauranga and Narasimha,Namaskar.

Thank you for your mail on argala. Being new to argala every bit helps.

May I request you to kindly differentiate between the effect of argala and

aspect(drishti) on the outcome of a house.

Regards

Anil

Re: [vedic astrology] Re: ARGALA

JAYA JAGANNATHA!Dear Anil and Narasimha,Namaste.Let me add a few lines here. In

fact, the Argala-causing houses and theirsignifications always affect the house

on which argala is caused, even ifthere are no planets in them. But in this case

the effrect is rather subtle,and not so vividly seen. This is because the

planets indicate people who canintervene in our lives (Argala is also

translated as planetary intervention)while the empty houses will indicate

circumstances, which however may alsointerfere with a house, although

passively. Sanjayji gives a host ofexamples for this principle while describing

the process of analysing the 12houses of the chart in COVA. In fact if my memory

serves me well, Narasimhaalso mentions this in an article on Argala which was

there on the SJVCwebsite.Let me give an example.Let's take the 10th house, and

out of its different analogies, let'sconsider work or career. The 11th house

gives and argala, which isobstructed by the 9th. One is motivated by the

expected gains when he doeshis work. But religiousness may obstruct him from

certain activities as theymay be considered immoral in religious terms,

although otherwise they wouldbring more gains. Now the 1st house also gives an

argala, which isobstructed by the 7th. Someone has a personal motivation to do

his work, buthis wife may obstruct him because she demands time for herself.

The 8thhouse also gives an argala, which is obstructed by the 12th house.

Longevityor age is a determinant factor in work, but it can be obstructed by

loss ofsome limbs for example, indicated by the 12th house. On the other hand,

amalefic planet in the 12th may indicate losses, which would induce theperson

to work more.However, it looks like the primary argalas would work even with

emptyhouses, although the effect is much more subtle. I.e. if the 12th house

isempty, the native may still be afraid of losses and thus try to work more

tocollect more.Is my understanding of COVA correct, Narasimha?Yours,Gauranga

JAYA JAGANNATHA!

Dear Anil,

Namaste.

Let's take aspects and Argalas for example on the 10th house. Aspects would

indicate planets or persons influencing your career, like those you have to

work with, etc. Those giving Argala would indicate those people who helped you

to get the job, and virodhargala ewould indicate those who tried to stop them

from helping you, However, these people may not be directly related yto your

job if the planets don't give an aspect, only an argala.

Does this help?

Yours,
