Guest guest Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Dear All, Many thanks first to Donna and any others who may have helped with the new site and lessons, all very nicely presented in PDF format. The new WS also looks very good and user-friendly -- I'm sure the few small bugs will soon be ironed out. Second, I have a question, if anyone can help. Can we use " second degree " samdharmi? i.e. can a planet be samdharmi to one which is already samdharmi? For example: - Venus in same house as Jupiter with more points. Venus can thus do the job of Jupiter. But can Saturn, as natural SD to Venus, take over in turn, and do job of Jupiter? - Ketu in nakshatra of Rahu, so Ketu can stand in for Rahu. If Rahu is in sign of Jupiter, can Ketu therefore also stand in for Jupiter? If such " two-level SD " is possible, are there any conditions? e.g. only certain types of strong equivalence can be " second degree SD " ? Thanks for any help or ideas.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Dear Graham, No. SD to SD is not correct. If Ketu is SD to Rahu it means Ketu will be SD to the planets that Rahu represnents.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Dear Ash, Thank you for making this clear. No Sd to SD, but the nodes are a sort of exception in that they represent other planets rather than being SD to them? But why not then say that Ketu represents Rahu, rather than Ketu is SD to Rahu? Is it just a choice of terminology? In any case, the nodes are the only grahas which can represent a third graha via their dispositors like this, in a sort of " knock-on " effect, right? I think there were recently some messages on this question, I'll try to track them down.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Dear Graham, Think of it this way it will become clear. Rahu and Ketu are not Planets. They are imaginary points along the axis of Moon. Now since Rahu and Ketu do not have their own physical body they represent or are Samdharmi to the sign lord and nakshatra lord. Now if Nakshatra lord is also Rahu and Ketu then find out again which planet do they represent. So in that way it MAY represent more than 2 planets. Yes, Recently there was discussion betweeen Donna and Myself on the list. Look that up. I had also given some references to old mails in which Krushnaji had commented on the same topic in the past. Hope that helps. Cheers !!! Ash ps : Why dont you put up your picture up in the profile. , " Graham Fox " <fox.graham@w...> wrote: > Dear Ash, > Thank you for making this clear.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Thank you Ash, it's now clear why Rahu and Ketu are a special case: we have to work back via the dispositors until we get at least one or two of the 7 planets.
