ASTROLOGICAL FACTORS THAT MAKE AN ASTROLGER
Part—3 Feb- 22-2010 Monday
Rule 11: Also ‘Lagna Lord in the 3rd house makes a person, famous in astrology.
Rule 12: Daivagna. Satyacharya says: ‘If the lord of the 5th house is in the 2nd Bhava with a benefic Dhana (wealth) yoga, the native will be an astrologer and his predictions will come true. Further the native will enjoy wealth through Divine Favor.’ Again, while describing various professions from the 10th Bhava, he says that Mercury makes one earn his livelihood through the profession of astrology.
Rule 13: Another famous Tamil astrological treatise Veemakavi, based on a system similar to that of the Nadis, states thus: ‘If the lord of the 4th house is a malefic and is placed in a trine; if the lords of 2nd , 8th and 12th and Mercury join together or if Jupiter joins them, the native will be a scholar and an astrologer.’
Rule 14: It is however another famous Tamil astrological classic, Jataka Choodamani, that lays down four sets of distinct combinations which make an expert astrologer.
Combination 1 (Rule: 15) ‘If no malefics are placed in kendras from the Sun, and if Venus is in exaltation in the 2nd house with Mercury, the native will be a scholar and an expert
astrologer and of charitable disposition.’
Combination 2 : (Rule 16): ‘If the lord of the 2nd is in a kendra associated with or aspected by Mercury and Jupiter from his own house aspects and the full Moon is in conjunction with
Saturn, he will be a talented astrologer.’
Combination 3 (Rule 17): ‘If Jupiter is in a kendra or trikona from lagna or Rasi lagna (Moon) and the lord of the ascendant is in exaltation and in conjunction with the lord of the 2nd or conjunct with Mercury, the native will be an astrologer and write treatises on astrology.’
Combination 4 (Rule 18): ‘If the lord of the 2nd house is the Sun or Mars and is aspected by Jupiter or Venus, the native will be well-versed in Jyotisha; if the lord of the 2nd is Jupiter or Venus and is in exaltation and aspected by the Sun or Mars, he will recite the Vedas or holy
scriptures and compose them. He will be an expert astrologer.
Rule 19: Jambunadeeyam, the famous treatise by Maharshi (Sage-astrologer) Jambunada, says: ‘If Mercury is in swakshetra (own house) in Kanya (Virgo), the native will be a poet and an astrologer.’ ------------ (to be continued tomorrow).
