upagraha experimentation

[Guest guest]

Dear Gauranga Das,

 

Thank you so much for the info you sent. Although I have the information you

sent I certainly appreciate the time you took to copy it out for me. Now to

what I am doing with the Upagrahas:

 

I guess the best thing to say is I am playing with them. I know the Upagrahas

are supposed to be negative influences. However, if you read pages 201 - 203 in

Bepin Behari's Introduction to Esoteric Astrology you will see the argument he

puts forward about the so-called negativity of the Upagrahas.

 

Certainly he isn't saying they will bring great material boons into a person's

life but he is suggesting that they are bearers of more important gifts: calls

to spiritual paths.

 

Based partly on this and partly on my curiosity I have begun including the

Upagrahas into each chart and treating them as if the represented a stricter

form of the planet they represent. It's been amazing the information that has

come forward..........and my clients agree with the findings! I've just started

this so only have a couple of examples that have been 'tested' in real life

however it certainly is looking interesting.

 

More information is available in K.S. Charak's Elements of Vedic Astrology Vol.1. pp132-136.

 

There is other information that I have and I can not find the referrence nor can

I take more time looking for it but I will write out what was said. Obviously I

thought I source was OK because I put the information in my journal.

 

Dhooma is exalted in LE, debilitated in AQ owns CP and is good in houses 3, 6, 9, 10 and 11.

Vyatipata is exalted in SC, debilitated in TA, owns GE and is good in houses 3, 6, 9, 10 and 11

Parivesha is exalted in GE, debilitated in SG has no sign and is bad in houses 7 & 8

Indra Chaapa is exalted in SG, debilitated in GE, owns GA and is bad in houses 3, 8, and 12

Upaketu is exalted in AQ, debilitated in LE, owns CA.

 

I'll pass on this reference when I find it again. Please let me know what you

have found or if you are undertaking a direction of your own. There is also a

fine article written by Dr. G.K. Goel.

 

Till later...................Phyllis
