VEDIC METHOD OF CALCULATING DIVISIONAL CHART’S

Introduction – By the entry of “Arabians” I will call the yavan. (As they are called in astrology) their entry into India had huge impact over Vedic astrology too and they gave us some new methods in astrology namely as solar return that we all know and use too, it is a fantastic method used in Vedic astrology now and it works so much accurately but by their entry into India something has been manipulated too, and that was divisional chart as considered in Vedic astrology, the method that we are using right now of making divisional charts are in vogue and it works perfectly but it is not what our sages have propounded, while reading “Falit Vikas” of “Pt. Ramyatna Ojha”, “Jatkadeshmarg” of “Pt. Gopesh Kumar Ojha” and “Jaimini Mukta” of “Dr. Suresh Chandra Mishra” I get to know that the method we use are not Vedic method of casting divisional chart but they are modified by others views and as we know that in ancient times books were not published they were kept in form of notes in hand written copies so when they got published so many things that was not genuine and you will get to see about these type of things in so many great classical books like “Brihat Parashara Hora Sastra” you will get to know that so many of things was not actually said by the sage but have been added, manipulated, modified later in hand written copies and then published and people are getting not the right or we can say complete data, the same with the calculations of divisional charts, they have been changed into the time of “Varahamihira” and he have changed the thing in his book “Brihatjatak” and he also took the favor of the yavan people, and because the change have been made on very ancient time thus all the rules and have been based on that and new books also gave the calculation of divisional charts in the same way as Varahamihira gave in his book. Thus the traditional method are tested and have been used in India from thousands of years and the 2 eminent authors “Dr. Suresh Chandra Mishra and Pt. Gopesh Kumar Ojha” after knowing about these ancient method still in their books on astrology (which they have written for beginner’s) have gave the traditional method not the ancient method of sages, this shows that they knew the technique but they also know that all the astrological books Viz “Brihatjatak” “Faladeepika” “Saravali” have given the rules based on the new method so it should be studied but as per my own view we should also have to know our real method given by sages due to two main reason first by knowing them we can have more scope for research in astrology as I know that using divisional in astrology is quiet a much difficult work and I am of firm opinion that if the method of sages be used then the work will be more easy and result be more accurate and secondly this will also give us some clues to interpretation of some rules in astrology that are must to be understood in order to learn astrology completely,

Background – Our sages have taught us that in astrology there are basically 10 divisional that are mainly used in a nativity, they are D1, D2, D3, D7, D9, D10, D12, D16, D30, and D60. Under these 6 main and most essential divisions that must be considered are D1, D2, D3, D9, D12 and D30. And before giving any judgement we have to completely check the all these charts. Under all these 10 divisions, the method of casting of D2, D3 and D30 have been changed, so let me here tell you what are the method of calculating these charts in the times of sages.

The main question that arises is that why no other planet have their sign being used in D2 and why sun and moon don’t have their sign in D30 why, because it have been changed in our Vedic culture they were there, let me start with D2 as D1 is basic chart there can be no change in making that,

Hora – the shloka in “Vriddhakarika” of “Jaimini Stutra” states a shloka that:-

The half part of a sign is called hora, there are 24 horas, in which the signs Aries to Pisces gets repeated Twice. Thus calculating this way in all 12 signs there become 24 horas, the cycle from Aries to Pisces get repeated 2 times and hora circle completes, based on this the hora chart becomes like.

Dreshkan – The “Vriddhakarika” over “Jaimini Sutra” states that:-

1/3 part of a sign is Dreshkan in this way for 12 signs there are 36 Dreshkan, they should be counted in order from Aries to Pisces 3 times, thus calculating this method the D3 table will be,

The calculation of D7, D9. D12 is as same in both the methods but for the sake of convenience let me also make their chart,

Saptamsha – D7- chart in Odd signs they start from the same sign and in even signs they start from 7th sign therein

Navamsha – D9- chart in Movable sign they start from the sign itself in fixed sign they start from 9th sign therein and in mutable signs they start from 5th sign therein.

Dwadsamsha – D12- chart in all the signs the D12 chart is counted from the same sign therein.

Trisamsha – D30- Trisamsha is 1/30th division of a sign, this is different from the tradition popular today, in ancient times it was of 1 degree each as it is with all other divisional chart, a sign of 30 degree divided by 30 thus gives 1 and one the same basis 1 degree for each D30, this is also stated in “saravali”

These were the 6 divisions in their original form as stated by our great sages, all other divisions remain the same in their computation, and I presented the real method because I think it can be more accurate and precise in prediction if used.

The effect of a horoscope should be predicted according to the strength in divisions of houses without which one can-not take even one step in astrology.

By writing this what Kalyan verma hinted at was 2 things 1st of them is that while assessing strength and weakness of a horoscope besides seeing Shad Bala (Six Fold) strength we also have to see Sapta Vargaigkya Bala (Strength of planets in 7 Divisions). And the 2nd thing is that prediction related to planets and things have to be done in accordance to divisional charts.

What is a Divisional Chart: – it is basically sub division of main Rashi chart. Like hora is 2 division of rashi chart that’s why it is called D2, in this a rashi of 30 degree is divided into 2 parts of 15-15 degrees each. Likewise in the same way there are 16 basic divisions given by Parashara minimum that are being used are 6 divisions and maximum 20 divisions there are more divisions and very few astrologers use them. In this article basically we will be seeing 20 divisions. And they are enough for natal horoscopy. In this article I will not deal with how to make it and also will not go in how many more methods are available of making them. I will take them in some another article. In this article basically I will be dealing with 1. How to read a divisional chart. 2. How to predict using them. 3. Techniques that can be applied up to them.

Parashara and modern astrologers: – Parashara suggests us to use D1, D2, D3, D4, D7, D9, D10, D12, D16, D20, D24, D27, D30, D40, D45, and D60. Whereas modern astrologers use 4 more divisions to make then 20 divisions they are D5, D6, D8, D11, hence adding 4 more charts to the 16 charts divisions we get 20 divisional charts and we will use them in predictions.

What they stand for.

Now how to predict: – house lordship of planets and their placement in rashi or houses only have to be seen from D1 not in any divisional except D9 for rashi placement and bhava chalit for house placement. Bhava chalit is a totally different concept. Placement in rashi in divisional chart is only seen for judging effect and conditions of planets like in D9 we only see rashi placement of planets to assess their strength like if the planet is in same rashi and same Navamsha then the planet is vargottam that means powerful. And will give goof effects like in the same way if any planet is in same rashi in D1 and D10 then the planet becomes vargottam for D10 and will give good results relating D10 especially in own Dasha Antardasha, natural years. Favorable Transit Time.

In any divisional chart you only have to see the ascendant of the divisional chart and concerned houses, like for siblings Ascendant of D3 and 3rd house its lord and significator. Also in this or younger brother 3rd house, for 2nd younger brother 3rd from 3rd 5th then for next younger brother 3rd from 5th 7th for elder brother 11th 9th 7th and so on.  Other houses are also used but not for making judgement but for assessing effects of dasha and Antardasha. Two type of things can be done using divisional chart first to know the deeper and detailed analysis of a specific house. The promise of fructification, and how and when it will fructify, see for prospects related to progeny. There can be 2 things 1st to know progeny is promised on not and which type of progeny it will be good in nature or bad, male female, etc. and 2nd is when will progeny come, so for the 1st thing see ascendant in D7 and then 5th house in D7 and other houses and then see position of their lords in D1 and D7 and also the position of significator Jupiter in D1 and D7, now what is the 2nd thing is when someone can expect of progeny for that see the planets placed in quadrants and trines in D7 will show that in their dasha and Antardasha things can happen related to that divisional chart. In this too there is power. Like an exalted planet in Kendra in D7 is more likely to give progeny as compared to a normal planet in quadrant in D7. See these 2 type of effects are to be seen from divisional charts. 1st thing will happen or not. 2nd in which way it will happen 3rd what it will happen. See analysis of any of the divisional chart have to be done with respect to main rashi chart. Divisional charts are here to make our judgement clear and simple in Vedic astrology. See if mars is bad in D1 but good in D10 then we can say mars will be generally bad but good for profession. As see every coin have two faces no planet is completely good or bad in the same way. A planet can be good in D10 and bad in D9 means good for profession and bad for marital life so in his dasha and Antardasha he will give lot of success in professional pursuits but bad results in marital life. Then suppose if it be dasha of 20 years of Venus then pay attention to Antardasha and judge the effects of their lords in all divisional charts. So before predicting for any dasha and Antardasha see placement of the planet in all divisional charts.

Also there are few deities related to specific divisional charts that shows spiritual aspect of that field and that can also be understood by using divisional charts. The divisional chart of utmost importance is D60 which stands for past life karmas. If any planet is having bad deity associated with him in D60 then it shows that in previous life he did something bad related to that area and now in this life that planet will give bad effect. As one aspect of our life is also spiritual so that part is signified by deities of divisional charts. And if you understand them properly then a new dimension of Vedic astrology leaning will open in front of you and the best way to learn them is to read storied about them given in various puranas and sastras.

A planet which is combust or defeated in birth chart is useless in all divisional charts. Other planets like someone debilitated in birth chart but own house in D12 means planet will be good for parents. Rashi chart is just a general view whereas divisional charts is specific detailed view.

7 things that have to be seen in divisional charts are. 1. Friendly or inimical rashi position, 2. Own exalted or debilitated houses placement. 3. Position from ascendant. 4. Position from another planet. 5. Aspect. 6. Combination. 7. Yogas. Planet in friendly rashi good for that divisional chart and good for that area in inimical rashi bad for that divisional chart and area. Same rule should be applied to own house exalted or debilitated. Position from ascendant is an important thing. Planet placed in quadrants and trines will give good effects of that divisional chart and in their dasha will give good results related to that divisional charts in which they are in quadrant or trines and if they be in 3, 6, 8, 12 houses then in their dasha Antardasha they will show bad effects related to that divisional chart. Planet in 8th shows death and 3rd shows retirement.  Any planet in 3rd house in D10 can show retirement from job in his dasha Antardasha. Any planet in 8th house can show in his dasha Antardasha death of job and birth of business or only death and planet in 6th or 12th will signify joblessness or bad times related to profession. Position from other planets is also important like if you are judging D10 then see the position of all planets from ascendant of D10 ascendant lord of D10 6th house of D10 for job 7th house of D10 for business 10th house of D10 and 10th lord of D1 chart in D10 and so on. Now aspects planets also have aspects over each other in divisional charts and based on that effects should be judged like 10th lord of D10 aspecting 10th lord of D1 in D10 can show a good career in their Dasha Antardasha. Combination also works in the same way in divisional charts. Now coming to yogas if lagna is in paap kartari meaning 2 malefic in 2-12 houses from ascendant one in 2nd and one in 12th house from ascendant will show that all significations of that divisional charts have to be lost. No significant effect will be felt also karako bhav nasay will happen in divisional like Jupiter in 1st house in D7 will show karako bhav nasay and in his dasha Antardasha and in general will show difficulty problem related to progeny and matters related to D7.

Transit and all rules related to it can also be applied to all divisional charts and also Ashtak varga can be made for all divisional charts. And then their results have to be judged.

Based on these divisional charts birth time can also be rectified and this the most potent tool for birth time rectification.
