Guest guest Posted August 17, 2001 Report Share Posted August 17, 2001 Hari Aum Tat Sat Dear Vivek! About basics of Jyotish, the first book you should have is Brihat Parasari Hora Shastra by Santhanam. You can also have PVR Narasimha Rao's Vedic Astrology- an integrated approach for basics. You might get disheartened by the calculations and complexities involved in both mathematical and applied astrology, but with persistent effort things will get clear. Keep trying and do regular meditation. About the ascendant. There is a very simple procedure, not accurate though. Find the degree of Sun at Sunrise time. Then calculate the time passed from the Sunrise to the Birth of the native. Move from the Sun's position @ 2hrs per sign and the native's ascendant will be the point where you will stop when the counting is over. For example. The sunrise time of a place is 5:20 AM and the native's birth is 2:10 PM. What is the time difference of the Sunrise and Native's birth time 8hrs 50 min. Let the Sun's longtide at sunrise is 10deg of Libra. Count from 10deg of Libra @2hrs/ Sign. In 8hrs the Lagna will move to Aquarius 10deg. In the remaining 50min the Lagna will move 50*30/120=12.5deg. Adding 12.5deg to 10deg Aquarius, we will get 22.5deg aquarius. Hence the Ascendant becomes 22.5deg of Aquarius. This method is not accurate as the the Rising time of Signs are not uniformly 2hrs. i.e., the Lagna doesn't move through all the signs at a uniform rate or 2hr. This is only an approximation. The rising time the signs vary with the latitude. I hope this is enough for the time being. Ponder over the method I gave, things will get clearer..... I am forwarding the mail so that others beginners can also understand the calculation of Lagna or the Ascendant.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2003 Report Share Posted May 25, 2003 - ajitd varahamihira Cc: Sanjay Rath 24 mm 2003 7:49 AM your mail Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya Dear shri Sanjayji, Sashtang Pranam, Sir, Thanks for your kind words. I am preparing on the topic and will get back with you soon. The subject given to me was Kirti and apakirti yogas. I will complete the article and will send it to you for your guidance and corrections. Sir, kindly comment on the kalchakra and yoginis. I have applied them in tithi pravesh charts. they work miraculously. They also work with the muhurtas. Even though the marriage happens on the good Muhurta of a well matched couple and the inauspicious yogini falls on that momment the some kind of problems occur in the married life. I have not been able to assess the time period of the probelm or Ido not know the technique of it. But the experience tell that the problems persists for the some period and then it disappear. Sir, please guide me on the same and also tell me the additional mateial on it. Thanking you Yours faithfully, Dewavrat Buit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
