HOW TO ANALYSE THE HOROSCOPE
To analyze the horoscope the following three methods are generally followed:
1. Based on Bhava Karakatwa (house significance)
2. Based on Bhava Karakatwas and Nakshatras
3. Based on Graha Karakatwas (planetary significance)
About the first and second method, many books have been already written by
different authors. Few authors only have written about the third method. In my own
experience, I found that the third method is very simple, easiest and accurate and this is
the method the NADI Astrologers are following while giving predictions. In this method of
prediction, Nakshatra, Lagna and Bhavas are not given any importance, planets and their
significance (Karakatwas) are only given more importance. Because in Hindu astrology,
we have assumed that the signs and stars does not move, where as the planets are
constantly moving in the Zodiac. It is only due to the movement of planets, the different
changes occur in human life. Actually the changes occurs when the planets interacts
with each other, otherwise there will not be any planetary effect on human being, Either a
planet should have conjunction with other planets or a planet should be aspected by
some other planets, Then only the aspected planet will yield specific results otherwise the
planet will not yield any result. This is the principle followed in NADI astrology. It is to be
kept in mind that we do not analyse the Horoscope by considering the Nakshatras and
Bhavas. We consider only the Karakatwas of the planets for prediction.
We know that if two planets are in same sign, it will be considered that they are in
conjunction. If a planets is placed in the seventh sign from the other it is considered that
they are aspecting each other. In addition to the above, the NADI system considers the
planets which are placed in the same direction are said to be in conjunction. The planets
which are placed in opposite direction will aspect each other. The planets which are
placed in the front sign and rear sign of a planet will strengthen or weaken the planet
based on the friendship or enmity between them.
Same direction 1, 5, 9 from considered signifactor
Opposite direction 3, 7, 11 from considered signifactor
Front & rear signs 2, 12 from considered signifactor
Here, we must understand that the aspecting planets will give their Karakatwa result
to the aspected planet.
Ist Step:
First decide what subject you want to analyse and select the correct signifactor
(karaka) which is relevant to the subject under consideration
For example:
To know the character and appearance of the person
Consider Guru as Jeevakaraka for males
Sukra as a Jeevakaraka for Females
For profession, consider Sani
For education consider Budha
IInd step:
From considered signifactor see any planet is located in the following places.
1,5,9 (same direction) from the considered significator
3,7,11 (opp. direction) from the considered significator.
2,12 (front and rear) from considered significator
If any planet is located in the above places, then that planet will aspect the considered
significator. The aspecting planets will give their Karakatva result to the considered
significator. For example, let us consider Guru as Jeevakaraka. If Surya is aspecting
Guru, then the character of the native will be given as below:
Reliable, philanthropic, popular, social worker, simple in nature, open hearted, short
tempered,
if Budha is aspecting Guru, then, the character of the person will be given as below:
Intelligent, softspoken, witty and humorous, etc. If more than one planet is aspecting
Guru, then the native will have mixed character. In this manner, we can find out the
character and appearance of the other family members also, education, carrier,
disease and marriage of the native also can be analysed by considering the
appropriate significator (karaka). I request the reader to get well versed with the
nature of rasis and Karakatvas of planets before venturing in to prediction.
