Effects of planets in signs from Sri B. V. Raman

[Guest guest]

Om Sri Gurubhyo Namah

 

 

Dear members:

 

In Sri. B.V. Raman's Hindu Predictive Astrology and other text books

the results of planets in rasis or signs are given.

 

For e.g: Mars in Gemini: Loving family and children, scientific,

taste in refinement, skilled in music, etc.

 

Are these just based on a combination of planet signification, sign

signification and relationship between lords of the signs ?

 

I would appreciate any guidance on this.

 

Regards.

Sri BV Raman is the pioneering figure of Modern Vedic Astrology. He

has written several books in simple and easy to understand English,

with no pretensions of so called neo astrologers.

 

Very often, you will come across him cautioning the reader that he

should apply the readings ad verbatim and sometimes, candidly

admitting that it is not possible to predict certain things. You

would be astonished to find such humility and simplicity in such great

a personality.

 

Coming to your query, most of his readings are based on the classical

texts and his own interpretations of the same, however with more

understandable bias towards the south Indian texts such as prasna

marga, manasagari and Bhavartha ratnakara.

 

Obviously, a planet's position in a chart depends upon the sign, the

bhava and the planet's nature and significations, so as its lordships.

In deeper analysis, the planet's position within the sign also matters

such as its position in a particular lunar mansion and its quadrant,

the position of the planet in various divisional charts and its

position vis-à-vis other significant planets.

 

Readings pertaining to planetary positions given in the books, either

in sri Raman's books or in classics, are the stand-alone positions.

They have to be suitably changed, by looking at the entirety of the

chart.

 

Hope this helps,

Dear Murli

 

 

To some extent but not entirely and sometimes the reasoning can be quite

obscure. Sometimes these are derived from classical texts whose authenticity

is questionable.

 

Kind regards

Try to read between the lines and try to see behind the picture. These are

very important subtleties which we all often ignore. There can be nothing

useless in the wisdom of the great seers.
