Namaste friends,

 

> 2) 7 or 8 char karaka?

>

> 8 Char Karaka works for me, for many it is 7 char karaka. So, it is upto you

to decide.

 

People seem to think that there are only two options - taking 8 chara karakas in

all charts and taking 7 chara karakas in all charts.

 

However, Parasara clearly taught that 7 chara karakas apply in SOME charts and 8

chara karakas in others. He even gave the astrological criteria to apply to the

horoscope in order to decide which scheme to use. Thus, neither the 7 chara

karaka camp nor the 8 chara karaka camp is correct. Both camps violate Parasara.

Please go to

 

http://www.VedicAstrologer.org/articles

 

and read the article titled: " Parasara's Chara Karakas " . This defines chara

karakas as taught by Parasara (and understood by me). It also defines a dasa

system known as Karaka dasa (taught by Parasara) and illustrate how it works

using 16 clear examples. Another article titled " Parasara's Atma Karaka Kendradi

Graha Dasa " defines a dasa system based on AK and illustrates it using 13 clear

examples.

JHora 7.33 supports this system of taking 7 or 8 chara karakas based on the

horoscope. In JHora 7.33, select " Preferences " , " Related to calculations " and

" Chara karaka scheme (7 or 8) " . In the selection combobox, select the 4th option

" Mixed 7/8 chara karakas of Parasara " . It then takes 7 chara karakas in some

charts and 8 in others, based on Parasara's criteria.

 

Best regards,

Narasimha

I have spent days and days to find these answers. Probably that's why I am here,

to find answer to my questions.

wrong, forgetting that it served Jyotisha for millenia. The very definition of

Ayanamsha has been drastically changed by Colebrooke who had no interest or

faith in astrology.

Jyotisha cannot be learnt like modern disciplines. It needs Tapasyaa,

Brahmacharya, etc, which are outside modern curricula.
