sandhu.jp Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 Karaka-Lagnas The Karaka-Lagnas are very useful and highly predictive in its own way as an additional argument and also in case the birthtime and the Ascendent are unknown. The principles behind this are very simple and follow the normal basic rules of Hindu astrology. Information about it can be found in many textbooks, and I have seen many examples of the application of Karaka-Lagnas in Nadis like Saptarshi-Nadi and Suka-Nadi. It works like this: We have the 12 houses and each of them has got a lot of different meanings. Then we have the Karakas, meaning the significators, and each of them has also got a lot of different meanings. It is however possible to combine the Karakas and the 12 houses in a special way. It is well known that Jupiter is the karaka for children and that the 5th house is the house of children. By combining these two things, we then take the 5th house from Jupiter to indicate children. The natal sign position of Jupiter then becomes the Karaka-Lagna and we look for matters pertaining to children in the 5th house from Jupiter. In some Nadis it is stated as an argument for Putra-dosha, meaning blemish regarding children, that Rahu is found in the 5th house from Jupiter. In the same way there is Kuja-dosha, being bad for marriage, if Mars is found in the 7th from Venus. The delination of the different houses are done in the usual way.
