#2 Ishta and other devatas

[Guest guest]

Dear Vishnu,

 

Allow me to share some of my understanding… you may also want to

reference this in the archives, to learn more of the D9 and the D20:

Learned members,

 

Sorry but I have to bother again with a few questions about Ishta and

other devatas. I am basing these questions on my understanding that

Navamsa(D-9) represents dharmic manifestations of the soul.

 

[Via NK]

The Navamsa is the chart of Dharma, and matters of the 9th House.

 

 

 

1) Does the 12th from Atmakaraka represent the desire of the

soul(towards liberation) at a a sub-conscious level? Is that the reason

why Ishta devata is seen from the 12th and is viewed as the promoter of

liberation?

 

[Via NK]

 

The 12th House represents Mukti. It is the final sign in the natural

zodiac, before we start again, with Aries.

 

The CharaAtmaKaraka (or Jeevatman) is here to learn some lessons of

life. The Jeevanmuktamsa (or commonly referred to the Ishta) is the

one who will grant mukti to the jeeva in this cycle.

 

Desires are usually seen from the 7th House.

 

 

If the 12th represents liberation qualities/desires of the soul,

 

2) Does 4th from atmakaraka in navamsa(D-9) represent the Gruha

Devata(family deity) or should one be looking at D-4/D-20. How does one

decipher Grama Devata(village deity)?

 

[Via NK]

Based on my memory, the Kula Devta (family Deity) is the 2nd from the

D20.

 

3) Does 5th from atmakara represent Aradhya Devata(Adored deity) or

should one be looking at D-5/D-20?

[Via NK]

To see which deity the person is fond of, examine the planets in the

Trines of the D20.

 

4) Does 9th from atmakaraka represent Dharma Adhishtana Devata(Supreme

Dharma Deity) or should one be looking at D-81/D-20?

 

[Via NK]

The 9th from the AtmaKaraka in the Navamsa is the Paalan Devta / Devi.

 

 

warm regards,

Vishnu
