Preface
An attempt has been made in this work to clarify the concepts
with regard to the Signs, Planets, and Houses in simple and
readable language. These are the building blocks of the
foundation on which an edifice of sound analytical knowledge of
predictive astrology may rest. What each of these factors
represents, what its characteristics are and what the postulates
and rules are relating to each of them have been clearly
enunciated. Further the results and effects of inter-action of these
factors have also been brought out in sufficient detail. To keep the
bulk of the work within limits, generally definitions and
commonly known or found facts have been dispensed with.
Thus, this is not a primer. It is meant for a person who, having
found the subject interesting and obtained its elementary
knowledge, wishes to delve deeper in it in a systematic manner.
There has been excessive emphasis on Yogas (planetary
placements and combinations) in predictive astrology, so much so
that, generally, the basics are lost sight of. The importance of
various yogas ought not to be belittled, but astrological
prediction is not mere application of yogas to the birth chart. In
the present day world, when astrology has assumed a place of
common interest and even a lay man likes to study the subject, to
expect a modem man to learn by heart the thousands and
thousands of yogas with which the astrological literature of yore
is replete, is to expect too much. He is also a little bewildered as
such an approach does not appeal to his rational mind.
For a sound knowledge and understanding of the subject, we
viii
Preface
must know the fundamentals and the manner in which they can
be analysed. In this book the reader is taken through the subject
in a scientific manner. He will realise that there is reason in
predictive astrology, and that it is not merely the product of
intuitive surmisings. My effort has been to emphasise this reason
and system.
In the last Chapter, the maladjustment that exists between the
Vimshottari Dasa System and Gregorian calendar has been
pointed out. The Dasa System has been adapted to the calendar
in vogue. It obviates the possibility of timings fixed with the use
of this System to fail. Suitable tables have been appended to save
the reader much arithmetical labour for, to my knowledge this
information is not available elsewhere in usable detail.
The strength of a planet is of foremost importance in Hindu
predictive astrology. The method of calculating the shadbala
(sixfold) strength of a planet is not only highly tedious but is
beyond the capability of a common reader. We have, in this
book, through a simple method, attempted to reach an
approximation to the six-fold strength of a planet without any
mathematical exercise. This has further been related to the
Vinshopaka strength of the planet. These two together will give a
very fair idea of the prowess of the planet to give results.
Long hours spent at the word-processor producing this book
could not make my wife Lalita, and the children, Radhika and
Rahul, impatient. I really marvel at their forbearance. My friends
have always encouraged me to put down my thoughts on paper.
This book is a result of that encouragement.
