Guest guest Posted May 16, 2003 Report Share Posted May 16, 2003 Om Gurave Namah Dear Tushankar, I am pasting below something on Argala which I wrote a few days ago.I hope to be corrected by the gurus if I stated anything incorrect: Argala Importance of studying Argala The literal translation of the term Argala is Intervention. This could be an intervention caused by a planet in the affairs of the house as well as on the effect of a particular planet. Hence, Argala becomes an important factor when we want to study the results of a particular house or even a planet. Argala from the various planets can also cause certain yogas and can also hinder certain yogas further making its study an important part of any chart. In transit too Argala holds its importance and so will the effects be felt as per the dasas. Argala is applicable not just in the Rasi chart but the various Varghas as well. It can also be applied to the Bhavas, Karakas, Arudhas and special lagnas. Due to its obvious effects Argala is studied as a part of Vedic astrology and Maharishi Jaimini lays a lot of stress on the study of Argala as it effects the results of the house or planet. Further Argala also plays an important role when we want to give remedial measures. This would become clear, as we understand the various types of Argalas. Various aspects of Argala Argala can have different factors to it. It is mainly a concept, which can further be applied to not only the various planets but also to houses. Thus we study Argala not just as the effect given by a planet on another planet but also its effect on the whole house and the native as well. Argala can be seen from not just the Lagna but from each house too. 1. Planets in one particular house (lets say A) will give Argala to planets in another house (lets say B) 2. Planets from another house (lets say C) may be obstructing the same Argala and changing the results further. 3 .Now how do we reckon the result of house B that is receiving Argala from House A and facing an obstruction at the same time from house C? Here it’s also important to note which planets are giving Argala and which planet is obstructing it. Are they only malefic planets or benefic and which is stronger ..All these factors will make an impact on the results of the house. If the same Argalas are on the Lagna then these factors will affect the native dierectly. It may give attributes to the person’s nature. 4. Argala on various planets can be studied to look at a particular aspect in the chart. For example to see all the influences on the native's wealth-sources Argalas on Jupiter can be seen. 5. Argala is also studied not only on the various houses but on Arudha as well. Maharishi Parashar gives simple effects of Argala on Arudha. Should there be Argala on the Arudha Pada, for the natal Lagna and for the 7th from both, the native will be famous and fortunate. A malefic, or a benefic, causing unobstructed Argala, giving a Dristi to Lagna will make one famous. Similarly a malefic, or a benefic, causing unobstructed Argala, giving a Dristi to Dhan Bhava denotes acquisition of wealth and grains, to Sahaj Bhava happiness from co-born, to Bandhu Bhava residences, quadrupeds and relatives, to Putr Bhava sons, grand sons and intelligence, to Ari Bhava fear from enemies, to Yuvati Bhava abundant wealth and marital happiness, to Randhr Bhava difficulties, to Dharm Bhava fortunes, to Karm Bhava royal honour, to Labh Bhava gains and to Vyaya Bhava expenses. The Argala by benefics will give various kinds of happiness, while benefic effects will be meddling with malefic Argalas. Argala by both benefics and malefics will yield results. 6. Maharishis say, that the Argala, caused by one Grah, will yield limited effect, by two mediums and by more than two, excellent effects. Argalas should be counted from a Rasi, or a Graha, as the case may be. 7. The Argala, which is unobstructed, will be fruitful, while the one duly obstructed will go astray. The Argala effects will be derived in the Dasa periods of the Rasi, or Graha concerned. Calculation of Argala There are various fixed rules for the calculation of Argalas.These rules are applied to the planets and houses. · The 2nd house gives Argala to the lagna; the 12th house obstructs the same argala. · The 11th house gives gains to the lagna; the 3rd house obstructs these gains. · The 4th house ensures happiness to the native/lagna; the 10th house obstructs the same. · The 5th house shows the future and the 9th show the past. The past always obstructs, the future, which is yet to be. So, 5th house gives argala, the 9th obstructs it. · 8th house gives Argala to lagna, and the 6th house obstructs it. Other thoughts on Argala · Argala can be applied to any house, treating it as Lagna. · To see Argala on the natives enemy 6th house can be treated as Lagna and the results be read from there on. Similarly, to see the Argala on the natives home treat the 4th house as Lagna and see the results. · Since planets also represent people various results can be seen from a chart to read the Virodh Argala and Subh Argala to understand which people will support the native and which people will cause obstructions. · There are some exceptions in the argalas. If a planet is in the 3rd house, it will obstruct the planets in 11th house but if that planet is a malefic, then after obstructing the Argala of the 11th, it will itself bring Argala through increased effort such as fights or some strife. This indicates that the native later gains Argala by making a stronger effort. This is only attributed to the 3rd house, as it’s the Parakrama Bhava. · Ketu ‘s Argalas and obstruction is counted in a reverse manner. Classification of Argala Argala can mainly be classified into: A. PRIMARY ARGALA: Argala given by the houses 2nd, 4th and11th is primary Argala. B. SECONDARY ARGALA: Argala given by houses 5th and 8th are Secondary Argala. Various terms for Argala: 1.Shubh Argala 2.Ashubh Argala or Papa Argala. 3.Virodha Argala. 4.Vipreeta Argala. 1.SHUBH ARGALA: Benefic planets give Shubh or benefic Argala. Argala given by Jupiter on the 9th house may make the person learned and dharmic. 2.ASHUBH ARGALA OR PAPA ARGALA: When a malefic planet gives Argala it becomes Papa Argala. Rahu’ s Aargala on the 7th house may lead to problems in married life or the native may experience problems with work associates. 3.VIRODH ARGALA: The literal translation of the word Virodh means opposing or in opposition. When an Argala is obstructed by another Argala the obstructing Argala is called Virodh Argala as it works in opposing the present Argala. The most important point here is that Virodh Argala can be both harmful and beneficial for the native. When Virodh Argala blocks a benefic Argala it becomes an obstruction to the Shubh or benefic results. At the same time when Virodh Argala blocks Papa Argala it helps the native by obstructing evil effects. This particular Argala is very useful while giving remedial measures as it works both ways. Remedies can be given to obstruct the evil results from another Argala by strengthening this Argala or they can be given to remove this Argala when it obstructs benefic Argala. 4.VIPREETA ARGALA: Vipreeta means just the opposite. This particular Argala is called Vipreeta as it gives its results after giving just the opposite results at first. In the beginning the native is forced to make extra efforts to achieve results later. If a planet is in the 3rd house, it will obstruct the planets in 11th house but if that planet is a malefic, then after obstructing the Argala of the 11th, it will itself bring Argala through increased effort such as fights or some strife. This indicates that the native later gains Argala by making a stronger effort. This is only attributed to the 3rd house, as it’s the Parakrama Bhava. Argala and Yogas Several Yoags are formed due to Argala further enhancing its importance in a chart. One such example is Bandhana Yoga. When the Lagna is faced with two Argalas one from the 2nd house and one from the 12th house or rather when the lagna is placed between several other planets it forms Bandhana Yoga. The literal translation of Bandhana is binding or to curtail activity and to put in some boundaries. This yoga is called Bandhana Yoga since it places the native between two different Primary Argalas and the native is bound by this effect from two sides. Timing events with Argala; Argala and Dasas When we look at the dasas in a chart we are looking at the circumstances, as they would change with the planetary movements. Argala here would also change along with the planets. This makes Argala a useful tool in timing the various effects and also events to some extent. A malefic in the 2nd house will deprive the native from enjoying the results of that house. Among other results this could also indicate lack of good food and family support. However, if a benefic is placed in the 12th house then this Argala is obstructed and the native may enjoy neutral results. But in the dasa of this particular benefic planet the native will be forced to be near the family and enjoy good food, as the effect of this Argala will be completely experienced. The dasa running will enhance various Argalas in the chart and give differing results and this can be timed by studying the various Argalas formed and applied to the dasas. Argalas given by the various planets can also be studied to further get a more accurate picture. Argala of Jupiter will indicate matters regarding wealth, education, etc. Studying the planetary Argalas on the dasa planets will give further details about the circumstances surrounding the native. Argalas and Karkas The various Karkas for the houses and bhavas should also be applied to while studying Argala. For example, if Mars in the 6th house. The 6th is for servants, strife, bad work, fights/battles, enemies etc. The karaka for servants and strife is Saturn and Mars is very inimical towards it, so the native will have problems with servants and is likely to avoid too much work. Furthermore, Mars will give Argala on the 5th house. The 5th house shows authority, children, followers, siksha and mantra. The karaka for authority is Mars, so Mars' argala will give more authority. Childbirth will have problems, as Mars will cause excessive bleeding and miscarriages and the mantras will be strong. Mars will give Subha Argala on the 3rd house. This Shubh Argala over the 3rd house will show victory over enemies, maithuna, conception, younger co-borns etc. In this way we can combine the karakas with the various Argalas in any chart to see the results change. Graha Argala Graha Argala is the Argala given by planets on other planets. Till now we understood the effect of Argala on the various houses. Now lets understand the Argala on the various planets. Each planet gives Argala on the2nd, 4th and 11th from where it’s placed. So Argala is given on planets that are placed in these positions. While obstructers of the Argala will be those placed in the 10th, 12th and 3rd from a planet. If the Argala causing Grah is stronger than the obstructing one, the former will prevail. If the numbers of Argalas are more than the obstructing Grahas, then also the Argala will prevail. Virodh Argala by one planet on the other will change the fruits given by that planet and they will be constrained. If there are 3, or more malefics in the 3rd from a planet they will cause Vipreet Argala (more effective intervention), which will also be harmless and can be very favorable. The 5th is also an Argala place, while the Grah in the 9th will counteract such Argala. This concept holds great importance in studying Gochara.Planets in transition have their effects on the native and the natal chart and Argala by these planets will further change this effect. The basic nature of the planet will remain the same but the Argala will affect the fruits experienced by the native through that particular planet. According to the Argala given it may be denied, delayed or enhanced. Hence it’s important to study the Argala of the various planets on each other. Argala and Remedies Argala can be used while prescribing remedies. When we want to initiate the effect of a good planet in any chart then there are two ways of doing that. We can enhance or propitiate the planet and we can remove the obstruction, which is causing the good effect to be lost. This is where Argala is looked at. Remedies can be given to remove or decrease the effect of Virodh Argala. Hope this gives you some insight. Best Wishes, Kanupriya. doubt came into my mind - so I thought to clarify it from the list.

Guest guest Posted May 17, 2003 Report Share Posted May 17, 2003 Thanks for the excellent article on Argala. I know this may sound dense, but had a question as to why Ketu's argalas and obstructions are counted in reverse and not Rahu's also. Sincerely, Lauriekanu priya <barish44 (AT) hotmail (DOT) com> wrote: Om Gurave Namah Dear Tushankar, I am pasting below something on Argala which I wrote a few days ago.I hope to be corrected by the gurus if I stated anything incorrect: Argala Importance of studying Argala The literal translation of the term Argala is Intervention.

Classification of Argala Argala can mainly be classified into: A. PRIMARY ARGALA: Argala given by the houses 2nd, 4th and11th is primary Argala. B. SECONDARY ARGALA: Argala given by houses 5th and 8th are Secondary Argala. Various terms for Argala: 1.Shubh Argala 2.Ashubh Argala or Papa Argala. 3.Virodha Argala. 4.Vipreeta Argala. 1.SHUBH ARGALA: Benefic planets give Shubh or benefic Argala. Argala given by Jupiter on the 9th house may make the person learned and dharmic. 2.ASHUBH ARGALA OR PAPA ARGALA: When a malefic planet gives Argala it becomes Papa Argala. Rahu’ s Aargala on the 7th house may lead to problems in married life or the native may experience problems with work associates. 3.VIRODH ARGALA: The literal translation of the word Virodh means opposing or in opposition. When an Argala is obstructed by another Argala the obstructing Argala is called Virodh Argala as it works in opposing the present Argala. The most important point here is that Virodh Argala can be both harmful and beneficial for the native. When Virodh Argala blocks a benefic Argala it becomes an obstruction to the Shubh or benefic results. At the same time when Virodh Argala blocks Papa Argala it helps the native by obstructing evil effects. This particular Argala is very useful while giving remedial measures as it works both ways. Remedies can be given to obstruct the evil results from another Argala by strengthening this Argala or they can be given to remove this Argala when it obstructs benefic Argala. 4.VIPREETA ARGALA: Vipreeta means just the opposite. This particular Argala is called Vipreeta as it gives its results after giving just the opposite results at first. In the beginning the native is forced to make extra efforts to achieve results later. If a planet is in the 3rd house, it will obstruct the planets in 11th house but if that planet is a malefic, then after obstructing the Argala of the 11th, it will itself bring Argala through increased effort such as fights or some strife. This indicates that the native later gains Argala by making a stronger effort. This is only attributed to the 3rd house, as it’s the Parakrama Bhava. Argala and Yogas Several Yoags are formed due to Argala further enhancing its importance in a chart. One such example is Bandhana Yoga. When the Lagna is faced with two Argalas one from the 2nd house and one from the 12th house or rather when the lagna is placed between several other planets it forms Bandhana Yoga. The literal translation of Bandhana is binding or to curtail activity and to put in some boundaries. This yoga is called Bandhana Yoga since it places the native between two different Primary Argalas and the native is bound by this effect from two sides. Timing events with Argala; Argala and Dasas When we look at the dasas in a chart we are looking at the circumstances, as they would change with the planetary movements. Argala here would also change along with the planets. This makes Argala a useful tool in timing the various effects and also events to some extent. A malefic in the 2nd house will deprive the native from enjoying the results of that house. Among other results this could also indicate lack of good food and family support. However, if a benefic is placed in the 12th house then this Argala is obstructed and the native may enjoy neutral results. But in the dasa of this particular benefic planet the native will be forced to be near the family and enjoy good food, as the effect of this Argala will be completely experienced. The dasa running will enhance various Argalas in the chart and give differing results and this can be timed by studying the various Argalas formed and applied to the dasas. Argalas given by the various planets can also be studied to further get a more accurate picture. Argala of Jupiter will indicate matters regarding wealth, education, etc. Studying the planetary Argalas on the dasa planets will give further details about the circumstances surrounding the native. Argalas and Karkas The various Karkas for the houses and bhavas should also be applied to while studying Argala. For example, if Mars in the 6th house. The 6th is for servants, strife, bad work, fights/battles, enemies etc. The karaka for servants and strife is Saturn and Mars is very inimical towards it, so the native will have problems with servants and is likely to avoid too much work. Furthermore, Mars will give Argala on the 5th house. The 5th house shows authority, children, followers, siksha and mantra. The karaka for authority is Mars, so Mars' argala will give more authority. Childbirth will have problems, as Mars will cause excessive bleeding and miscarriages and the mantras will be strong. Mars will give Subha Argala on the 3rd house. This Shubh Argala over the 3rd house will show victory over enemies, maithuna, conception, younger co-borns etc. In this way we can combine the karakas with the various Argalas in any chart to see the results change. Graha Argala Graha Argala is the Argala given by planets on other planets. Till now we understood the effect of Argala on the various houses. Now lets understand the Argala on the various planets. Each planet gives Argala on the2nd, 4th and 11th from where it’s placed. So Argala is given on planets that are placed in these positions. While obstructers of the Argala will be those placed in the 10th, 12th and 3rd from a planet. If the Argala causing Grah is stronger than the obstructing one, the former will prevail. If the numbers of Argalas are more than the obstructing Grahas, then also the Argala will prevail. Virodh Argala by one planet on the other will change the fruits given by that planet and they will be constrained. If there are 3, or more malefics in the 3rd from a planet they will cause Vipreet Argala (more effective intervention), which will also be harmless and can be very favorable. The 5th is also an Argala place, while the Grah in the 9th will counteract such Argala. This concept holds great importance in studying Gochara.Planets in transition have their effects on the native and the natal chart and Argala by these planets will further change this effect. The basic nature of the planet will remain the same but the Argala will affect the fruits experienced by the native through that particular planet. According to the Argala given it may be denied, delayed or enhanced. Hence it’s important to study the Argala of the various planets on each other. Argala and Remedies Argala can be used while prescribing remedies. When we want to initiate the effect of a good planet in any chart then there are two ways of doing that. We can enhance or propitiate the planet and we can remove the obstruction, which is causing the good effect to be lost. This is where Argala is looked at. Remedies can be given to remove or decrease the effect of Virodh Argala. Hope this gives you some insight. Best Wishes, Kanupriya. doubt came into my mind - so I thought to clarify it from the list.

Guest guest Posted May 17, 2003 Report Share Posted May 17, 2003 Om Gurave Namah Dear Laurie, I was expecting this question from atleast one person and there you asked it.The study of Argalas is like studying the effect on the various types of fruits given by planets.Rahu ensures we remain in this cycle of desires of these fruits.The other planets too serve the purpose of revolving our karma through this cycle but Ketu is Moksha Karaka.Its the only planet which will help us to come out of this cycle and so in some ways it works in an opposite fashion.Hence.its argala or effect is also studied in an opposite dierection.I hope this helps and if I am wrong on this the Gurus please correct me. Best Wishes, Kanupriya. >Dear Kanupriya, >Thanks for the excellent article on Argala. I know this may sound dense, but had a question as to why Ketu's argalas and obstructions are counted in reverse and not Rahu's also. >Sincerely, >Laurie > >kanu priya wrote: > > > > > > Om Gurave Namah >Dear Tushankar, >I am pasting below something on Argala which I wrote a few days ago.I hope to be corrected by the gurus if I stated anything incorrect: > > > > Argala > > Importance of studying Argala > > >The literal translation of the term Argala is Intervention. This could be an intervention caused by a planet in the affairs of the house as well as on the effect of a particular planet. Hence, Argala becomes an important factor when we want to study the results of a particular house or even a planet. Argala from the various planets can also cause certain yogas and can also hinder certain yogas further making its study an important part of any chart. In transit too Argala holds its importance and so will the effects be felt as per the dasas. Argala is applicable not just in the Rasi chart but the various Varghas as well. It can also be applied to the Bhavas, Karakas, Arudhas and special lagnas. Due to its obvious effects Argala is studied as a part of Vedic astrology and Maharishi Jaimini lays a lot of stress on the study of Argala as it effects the results of the house or planet. Further Argala also plays an important role when we want to give remedial measures. This would become clear, as we understand the various types of Argalas. > > Various aspects of Argala > >Argala can have different factors to it. It is mainly a concept, which can further be applied to not only the various planets but also to houses. Thus we study Argala not just as the effect given by a planet on another planet but also its effect on the whole house and the native as well. Argala can be seen from not just the Lagna but from each house too. >1. Planets in one particular house (lets say A) will give Argala to planets in another house (lets say B) >2. Planets from another house (lets say C) may be obstructing the same Argala and changing the results further. >3 .Now how do we reckon the result of house B that is receiving Argala from House A and facing an obstruction at the same time from house C? Here it’s also important to note which planets are giving Argala and which planet is obstructing it. Are they only malefic planets or benefic and which is stronger .All these factors will make an impact on the results of the house. If the same Argalas are on the Lagna then these factors will affect the native dierectly. It may give attributes to the person’s nature. >4. Argala on various planets can be studied to look at a particular aspect in the chart. For example to see all the influences on the native's wealth-sources Argalas on Jupiter can be seen. >5. Argala is also studied not only on the various houses but on Arudha as well. Maharishi Parashar gives simple effects of Argala on Arudha. Should there be Argala on the Arudha Pada, for the natal Lagna and for the 7th from both, the native will be famous and fortunate. A malefic, or a benefic, causing unobstructed Argala, giving a Dristi to Lagna will make one famous. Similarly a malefic, or a benefic, causing unobstructed Argala, giving a Dristi to Dhan Bhava denotes acquisition of wealth and grains, to Sahaj Bhava happiness from co-born, to Bandhu Bhava residences, quadrupeds and relatives, to Putr Bhava sons, grand sons and intelligence, to Ari Bhava fear from enemies, to Yuvati Bhava abundant wealth and marital happiness, to Randhr Bhava difficulties, to Dharm Bhava fortunes, to Karm Bhava royal honour, to Labh Bhava gains and to Vyaya Bhava expenses. The Argala by benefics will give various kinds of happiness, while benefic effects will be meddling with malefic Argalas. Argala by both benefics and malefics will yield results. >6. Maharishis say, that the Argala, caused by one Grah, will yield limited effect, by two mediums and by more than two, excellent effects. Argalas should be counted from a Rasi, or a Graha, as the case may be. > >7. The Argala, which is unobstructed, will be fruitful, while the one duly obstructed will go astray. The Argala effects will be derived in the Dasa periods of the Rasi, or Graha concerned. > > Calculation of Argala > > > >There are various fixed rules for the calculation of Argalas.These rules are applied to the planets and houses. > >· The 2nd house gives Argala to the lagna; the 12th house obstructs the same argala. >· The 11th house gives gains to the lagna; the 3rd house obstructs these gains. >· The 4th house ensures happiness to the native/lagna; the 10th house obstructs the same. >· The 5th house shows the future and the 9th show the past. The past always obstructs, the future, which is yet to be. So, 5th house gives argala, the 9th obstructs it. >· 8th house gives Argala to lagna, and the 6th house obstructs it. > >Other thoughts on Argala > >· Argala can be applied to any house, treating it as Lagna. > >· To see Argala on the natives enemy 6th house can be treated as Lagna and the results be read from there on.

If a planet is in the 3rd house, it will obstruct the planets in 11th house but if that planet is a malefic, then after obstructing the Argala of the 11th, it will itself bring Argala through increased effort such as fights or some strife.

This yoga is called Bandhana Yoga since it places the native between two different Primary Argalas and the native is bound by this effect from two sides. > > Timing events with Argala; Argala and Dasas > >When we look at the dasas in a chart we are looking at the circumstances, as they would change with the planetary movements. Argala here would also change along with the planets. This makes Argala a useful tool in timing the various effects and also events to some extent. A malefic in the 2nd house will deprive the native from enjoying the results of that house. Among other results this could also indicate lack of good food and family support. However, if a benefic is placed in the 12th house then this Argala is obstructed and the native may enjoy neutral results. But in the dasa of this particular benefic planet the native will be forced to be near the family and enjoy good food, as the effect of this Argala will be completely experienced. The dasa running will enhance various Argalas in the chart and give differing results and this can be timed by studying the various Argalas formed and applied to the dasas. Argalas given by the various planets can also be studied to further get a more accurate picture. Argala of Jupiter will indicate matters regarding wealth, education, etc. Studying the planetary Argalas on the dasa planets will give further details about the circumstances surrounding the native. > > > Argalas and Karkas > >The various Karkas for the houses and bhavas should also be applied to while studying Argala. For example, if Mars in the 6th house. The 6th is for servants, strife, bad work, fights/battles, enemies etc. The karaka for servants and strife is Saturn and Mars is very > >inimical towards it, so the native will have problems with servants and is likely to avoid too much work. Furthermore, Mars will give Argala on the 5th house. The 5th house shows authority, children, followers, siksha and mantra. The karaka for authority is Mars, so Mars' argala will give more authority. Childbirth will have problems, as Mars will cause excessive bleeding and miscarriages and the mantras will be strong. Mars will give Subha Argala on the 3rd house. This Shubh Argala over the 3rd house will show victory over enemies, maithuna, conception, younger co-borns etc. In this way we can combine the karakas with the various Argalas in any chart to see the results change. > > Graha Argala > > >Graha Argala is the Argala given by planets on other planets. Till now we understood the effect of Argala on the various houses. Now lets understand the Argala on the various planets. Each planet gives Argala on the2nd, 4th and 11th from where it’s placed. So Argala is given on planets that are placed in these positions. While obstructers of the Argala will be those placed in the 10th, 12th and 3rd from a planet. If the Argala causing Grah is stronger than the obstructing one, the former will prevail. If the numbers of Argalas are more than the obstructing Grahas, then also the Argala will prevail. Virodh Argala by one planet on the other will change the fruits given by that planet and they will be constrained. If there are 3, or more malefics in the 3rd from a planet they will cause Vipreet Argala (more effective intervention), which will also be harmless and can be very favorable. The 5th is also an Argala place, while the Grah in the 9th will counteract such Argala. This concept holds great importance in studying Gochara.Planets in transition have their effects on the native and the natal chart and Argala by these planets will further change this effect. The basic nature of the planet will remain the same but the Argala will affect the fruits experienced by the native through that particular planet. According to the Argala given it may be denied, delayed or enhanced. Hence it’s important to study the Argala of the various planets on each other. > > Argala and Remedies > > >Argala can be used while prescribing remedies. When we want to initiate the effect of a good planet in any chart then there are two ways of doing that. We can enhance or propitiate the planet and we can remove the obstruction, which is causing the good effect to be lost. This is where Argala is looked at. Remedies can be given to remove or decrease the effect of Virodh Argala. > > > >Hope this gives you some insight. > >Best Wishes, > >Kanupriya. > > > > >doubt came into my mind - so I thought to clarify it from the list.

Guest guest Posted May 17, 2003 Report Share Posted May 17, 2003 || Om Gurave Namah :: Om Namo Naaraayanaaya || Dear Visti & Kanu, I would like to add that: 1. argalas on the rasi/ house containing KETU are also rekoned in reverse. 2. therefore, argala on the planets conjoining KETU are also reckoned in reverse.

Guest guest Posted May 17, 2003 Report Share Posted May 17, 2003 |Hare Rama Krishna| Dear Shailesh, The Argalas are only reckoned in reverse for the purpose of moksha, otherwise how could you make sense of this? Suddenly for some houses they get enhanced by fasting (12th) instead of eating (2nd)? No, this was clarified in Hyderabad and is ONLY for seeing the aspirations towards moksha.

Guest guest Posted May 17, 2003 Report Share Posted May 17, 2003 || Om Gurave Namah :: Om Namo Naaraayanaaya || Dear Visti, Thanks for your response. I was relying on the last year's ARGALA CHAT. The relevant portions are pasted below: Shriram: Guruji, for ketu the argala is reverse right , there is no argala on 9th but there in on 11th house ? PVR: That's for the house containing ketu PVR: Sc has no Ketu. So argalas on it are counted normally. Ketu in Sg has argala on Sc. PVR: OTOH, if you want argalas on Sg, you will have to count in reverse Shriram: oh ok PVR: For example, Sanjay's 10th house Sg has argala from Mars (in Vi) and negated by Jupiter (in Pi). PVR: We counted in reverse because Ketu's in Sg. N Iyer: yes Shriram: thanks for the detailed explanation pvrji Shriram: If ketu is conjorned with other planets and if ketu is weak (debilitated) does this reverse rule (on house) still apply ? PVR: my understanding is that it does. Sanjay ji can clarify further If there are any further considerations or conditions to be taken into account, I will appreciate your clarifications.
