Bhrigu Samhita

In Ancient India the sage Shri Bhrigu Ji who was called a Maharishi, reflected upon human affairs to

guide future generations of mankind on a path of rightousness (Dharma) and bliss (Moksha). The sage

had deep and profound insight in to the past, present and future of our collective as well as individual

existence with the help of divine powers. The sage Shri Bhrigu Ji out of compassion for mankind gave

revelation to human beings so that they could cope up with the problems and pressures of the world and

move towards spiritual nature of their beings. Shri Bhrigu Ji gave revelations and wrote predictions for

only those persons whom he could foresee as the ones who would seek his refuse and consult him in

ages to come.

The sage Shri Bhrigu Ji was considered as one fo the most ancient seven sages (Sapta Rishi) of India

who were entrusted with the task of maintaining righteousness on earth. He was a seer an enlightened

Soul, who could transcend time in respect of past, present and future and make predictions to guide

human beings for their own welfare. The original predictions were written on palm leaves. Later on they

were handed down from generation to generation in different forms. The best method to Identify one's

own reading in these manuscript relevant to one self is to tally them with details of horoscope. But in

certain cases even the necessity of horoscope is dispensed with and depending up on the intensity of the

faith of the one who seek advice, one can have predictions without the horoscope. Everything is written in

a dialogue form. The dialogue is between the sage Shri Bhrigu Ji and his disciple the sage Shri Shukra Ji.

Both of them are engaged in discussion about the welfare of those who would seek their audience.The

sage also refers to specific problems and prescribes prayers and other remedies to surmount those

problems. If these prayers and remedies are performed carefully and with devotion, the individual

concerned is freed from the sins of the past lives. The sage then assures the fulfillment of the predictionsof the prophecies made by him.

The samhits (the handwritten leaves of the great Lord) covers all important aspects of one's life. Thepredictions and prophecies in the book Bhrigu Samhita are a synthesis of astrology and ancient Indiansystem of Mantra, Tantra, Prayers Penance meditation and Yoga. In certain case the Samhita also providesdiagnosis of diseases along with their remedies. It is a miracle that exceeds all powers of imagination. Thebest way is only to experience one self. It for this reason that Lord Krishna Proclaimed in Gita, the SongDivine, "Of Maharishis, I am Bhrigu and again so "Among the wise, I am Shukracharya". Lord Vasistha toldRama that both the Rishi's were "living liberated guides of men by their knowledge of all that was to beknown". Such was the preeminence of the Maharishi that it was he who was authorized to test all the threegods (Brahama, Vishnu & Mahesh) on behalf of all the enlightened Souls who had gathered on the banks ofRiver Ganges for the purpose and it was because of his Testimony that Lord Shri Hari was accepted as the

highest Laod. Shri Hari accepted Shri Bhrigu's Lotus feet called (Shri Vatsa) on his chest as a token ofrecpect for the Pre-eminance of the Rishi.

CHINESE ASTROLOGY

certain phase or aspect of a sixty year circle of time.

Legend has it that Chinese Astrology and the order of the twelve animals that define it was

determined thousands of years ago by Lord Buddha himself. According to ancient scripts,

Buddha realised that the Chinese nation needed a reorganisation. So on the occasion of theChinese New Year (which occurs on different dates from mid-January to mid-February), Buddha

called upon the entire animal kingdom for a meeting. But only twelve animals (rat, buffalo, tiger,

rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog and boar) showed up for this meeting.

Buddha then honoured them in the order of their arrival by endowing upon them with a year of

their own. From then on, each successive year of the Chinese calendar bore that character of the

animal that gave it a name and so, those born in specific animal years are marked by the natureof their natal animal.

Yet, all people born in the same animal are not the same literally and do differ from each other in

certain aspects. These differences are determined by the various elements of Wood, Fire, Earth,Metal, and Water. Each of these elements distinguishes one person of the same animal from the

other.

In Chinese system ofastrology, each year begins early in the calendar year on a new moon and

relates to one of the twelve animals. Their qualities "animate" the year and colour it with theirdistinct natures.

Therefore you may find yourself born in the year of Rat or a horse or even a dragon as the lore

says it. People born in a particular animal year share certain common traits in the same manneras people born in common zodiac do. Chinese astro help in Lunar Chinese gender predictions

Thus it is necessary to know not only about the astrological relevance of different types ofanimals which represent the years but also about the methods used to predict the future in

Chinese Astrology

Chinese Lunar calendar - which is used for gender prediction (to determine the sex of a

child/baby as male or female) is a popular tool in Chinese Astrology and believed world wide.

Elements

Chinese astrology, our universe consists of five basic elements namely Metal, Water, Wood, Fire

and Earth . Everything, including humans,in the universe must have a relationship with these five

elements. So the five elements are applied not only to every physical thing in the world, but also

to the Colors, Directions, Seasons and Sounds,Years, Months, Days, Hours, Minutes andSeconds of the Chinese Calendar.These elements, calculated from the date of birth and time

,gives valuable insights in addition to their animal signs into the psyche of the person concerned,

their inherent tendencies and their personalities in general .

Dream Analysis

People are paying more and more attention to their dreams these days to find the hidden meaning

or solution to their problems in their walking life. Dreaming is like a hidden treasure that hasntbeen found by many. Dreams have gained the popularity of the American Film Board by

making one the highest grossing movies in a decade, called, Inception. The box office hit

Inception with Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio, was a box office success and got many more

involved with dreaming. We will help you crack the code to your dreams and tap into yourunconscious mind. Figuring out what your dreams mean takes time and patience, but with with

our help it can be done with ease!Your dreams can be rewarding, bizarre, scary, and somewhat thrilling at times, but its up to you

to take it seriously or not. Take the opportunity and explore your dreams today. Find out aboutyour dream symbols and the reasons why you are receiving them. When you look up, either

online or in a dictionary, to dream, it states that its a combination of thoughts and a cycle of

sounds and images channeling through our mind when we sleep. Dreams play such a vital rolein peoples lives, but many people fail to recognize the seriousness of dreams. The human mind is

so powerful, and now we are just scratching the surface.

Analyzing dreams and the symbols isnt something that just happened over night. Believe it or

not, humans were analyzing dreams as far back as 4000 B.C.E. Lately, we have been extremely

lucky to have two famous dream theorists called Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung. Thesebrilliant men single-handedly changed the way we analyze and study our dreams. Even thoughSigmund Freuds interpretation on dreams are not taken that seriously anymore, theorists like

Carl Jung, who was Freuds predecessor, broke away from him and brought new ideas to the

table. Carl Jung had a more open-minded approach to dream, where Freud didnt. Jung wouldask, what does the symbol mean to you? Freuds theories on dreams were too involved with

phallic symbols and our animal instincts, that it led people to stray away from his beliefs.

Despite who was right or wrong there is one thing that they did agree on. They agreed that whenwe sleep there is a communication between the conscious and unconscious mind sending

messages.

What are Dreams?

Our dreams are made up of a combination of thoughts, images, and emotions. The majority ofour dreams are thought out during our REM (Rapid Eye Movement) stage. The period of REM

usually takes up close to a quarter of our sleep, or roughly around 120 minutes a night. Most of

the time when we get a full nights sleep we will participate in or around 3 to 5 laps of REMsleep, each getting gradually longer as the night progresses. Most people over the age of 10 start

having up to 4 to 6 dreams per night. Unfortunately for some of us, when we wake up from


7/47

sleep, we forget all of our dreams. Did you know that we lose up to 90% of dream in the first

minute of waking up? The good news is that dream recall is very easy if done correctly. It just

takes a bit of patience and practice. There are numerous of ways that you can remember yourdreams upon wakening. At Dream Dictionary we can show you the proper way on how to

remember your dreams so it becomes as easy as breathing.

Types Of Dreams:

Understanding your dreams can be quite an exhilarating experience once you jumble the symbolsand find out the true meaning. Your unconscious mind is not going to give you the answer right

in front of your face, but it will do so with hidden meanings and symbols. Some of the types of

dreams that we experience are Lucid Dreams, which is the ability to control your dreamsettings while youre asleep and being fully aware of it. No matter who or where you are,

humans tend to experience certain types of dreams more than others. The most popular types of

dreams that we get are Teeth Dreams, Falling Dreams, Naked Dreams,and Flying Dreams.Another type of dreams we unfortunately get are Nightmares. This unpleasant dream can be

dreadful and possibly ruin most of our day when we get up. Though many people dontunderstand that nightmares are recurring dreams that you havent paid attention to. The

unconscious mind is telling you to WAKE UP on your deep-rooted issues that you may haveover-looked in your waking life. When something is hovering over our heads and we have

trouble dealing with the problem, its possible you will get a reoccurring nightmare from time to

time.

Interpreting Dreams:

Many people ask, how do I interpret my dreams? Believe it or not, its not rocket science. It just

takes a bit of time with some practice. As we stated above, we forget almost 90% of our

dreams the first minute you wake up. Here are some steps that will help you get the kick startfor you to remember your dreams. First, try using a tape recorder or writing down everythingthat happened in your dream the moment you wake up. Ask yourself what were the important

symbols that stood out in your dream? Who was in your dream? How did I feel when I woke

up? With all of this good information, go back to our Dream Dictionary and apply the meaningsto find out what they mean. You should first start by keeping a log on your dreams in a journal or

on your computer. By keeping track of this, it will help you strengthen your memory muscle. If

you keep writing down your dreams, you will start to notice you can retain more and more dreaminformation as time goes on. This will help you pick up on more important key symbols that you

may have missed out on before.

Whats The Meaning Of Dreams?

So what is the purpose of our dreams? Nobody can give you a definite answer on why we dreamand its still a mystery. One thing that we do know is dreams have hidden messages that try to

guide us in the right path. Many psychologistsuse their patients dreams to find out what the

problem is and how it can be fixed.Its really up to the individual to take on his or her dreams. If you want to explore your dreams,

you will see what needs to be addressed or what needs to be changed in your life. You might


8/47

even be able to foresee future events. Many people dont think they have psychic abilities until

they start remembering their dreams. What we know about dreams and dreaming is just the tip

of the iceberg and testing the waters is an exhilarating experience.

What is a Dream Dictionary?

Many people have trouble understanding what a dream dictionary really is and how to use it

properly. A dream dictionary is like using a Websters dictionary but the only difference is the

symbols that we use to translate them. Lets say, ifyou get attacked by a shark in yourdream, this doesnt necessarily mean that youre going to be killed by a shark when you swim.

A dream dictionary will help you figure out that maybe the shark possesses the same qualities

that you have, or maybe its somebody you know. In order to fully understand your dreamsymbols, you have to get more in tune with yourself.

A dream dictionary will help you better understand your dreams and the important messages thattheyre trying to inform you about in your waking life. Learning how to remember your dreams

takes a bit of time, but once you do it, it can be quite rewarding. Here at Dream Dictionary, wewill show you how to remember your dreams so you can fully assess what needs to be done in

your life, and maybe what to watch out for. Dreams are way to powerful for you to ignore.Thats why we encourage you to take this free and fun oppournity to explore the depths of your

unconscious mind.

Many people use their dream symbols to figure out personal problems they are too afraid to

come to terms with. Using our Dream Dictionary will help paint a picture for what needs to be

improved or changed in your life. It will help you get a clear understanding of dangers orenemies that surround you in your life. Not everything the dream dictionary will apply to you

100% accurately, but will pick up on aspects that you possess in your waking life. Its up to you

to unlock the mysterious door that you never knew existed.

Common Dreams

Dreaming can be more than a simple state of the brain. We can experience waking dreams,

daydreams, even dreams that appear to be shared or prophetic. Some people are lucid dreamers

a special skill that not everyone can master. Some people experience specific recurring dreams,

while certain sicknesses can bring on night terrors. Sometimes we can even experience falseawakenings, where we think weve woken up, but are still dreaming. Here well explore some of

these phenomena.

Daydreams: Daydreaming was once thought to be a lazy pursuitIm sure most of you have

been reprimanded for daydreaming at one point or another. It is, however, a metabolically

intense mental process, and can be very rewarding. In recent years, scientists have demonstrated

that daydreaming is a fundamental feature of the human mindso fundamental, in fact, that itsoften referred to as our default mode of thought. Daydreaming is a crucial tool for creative

thought, and allows the brain to make new associations and connections. It can spawn new ideas

or methods; the daydreaming mind is free to engage in abstract thought and imaginativeramblings, and as a result, were able to imagine things that dont actually exist.

Nightmares and Night Terrors: Chances are everyone here has experienced a nightmare. Ahorrible dream, complete with emotional turmoil, which causes the dreamer to wake and stay

awake, nightmares are fairly common occurrences. The main purpose of a nightmare is to wake

the conscious mindusually to change sleeping position. They can also be caused by stress orover-exhaustion. Surprisingly, children under the age of five do not experience nightmares at the

same rate as older children, while children over five seem to have nightmares at a rate of onceper week.

Night Terrors, however, are not as common. A typical night terror episode usually occurs in the

first hour of sleep. The subject sits up in bed and screams and appears awake but is confused,disoriented, and unresponsive to stimuli. Although the person seems to be awake, they do not

seem to be aware of any surrounding presence and usually do not talk. The person may thrash

around in bed and does not respond to comforting by others. A persons heart rate can escalateduring the terror, along with sweating and harsh breathing

Lucid Dreams: Some people, referred to as Oneironauts or Lucid Dreamers, are able to control

the setting and plot of their dreams. A lucid dream can begin in one of three ways. A dream-initiated lucid dream (DILD) starts as a normal dream, and the dreamer eventually concludes

that he or she is dreaming, while a wake-initiated lucid dream (WILD) occurs when the

dreamer goes from a normal waking state directly into a dream state with no apparent lapse inconsciousness. A mnemonic-initiated lucid dream (MILD) can happen when the dreamer

intentionally affirms to himself or herself that he or she will become lucid during the upcoming

sleep. Reaching lucidity can sometimes occur due to dream-signs or spontaneously upon


10/47

remembrance. These dreams can be fantastical, where anything is possible, and can often be very

realcomplete with touch, smell, and taste sensations.

Recurring Dreams: Recurring dreams are quite common and are often triggered by a certain life

situation or a problem that keeps coming back again and again. These dreams may recur daily,

once a week, or once a month. Whatever the frequency, there is little variation in the dreamcontent itself. Such dreams may be highlighting a personal weakness, fear, or your inability to

cope with something in your lifepast or present.

False Awakenings: Have you ever thought you have woken up and gone about your daily

morning routine: getting up, brushing your teeth, eating breakfast and going to work, only to

wake up again and realize that what just happened is just a dream. That sensation is referred toas a false awakening. Some people can experience four or five false awakenings before they truly

wake. This phenomena was the basis for the film Groundhog Day.

Crystal Power

Crystals are natures gift to man that augment healing. Crystals are found in all shapes, sizes,colours and composition.

Each crystal has a unique vibrational resonance. They owe their unique qualities to their mineral

content, their inherent geometry and the colour frequency they emit.

The clear quartz crystal is one of the most sacred stones of ancient cultures. Its clarity and

transparency give it a mirror quality through which things can be seen clearly. The natural quartzcrystal symbolizes white light energy.

The power of the crystal can be found in its structure - growing and reaching up toward lightfrom the deepest parts of earth. It is a conductor of energy - both as a receiver and a transmitter.

It is important to keep your crystal clean in order to protect it from outside negative vibrations.

Your personal crystals will attune themselves to your vibrations, as you will attune to the naturalvibrations of the crystal. Choose crystals that seem to speak to you or that you feel attracted to

for best results.

Clear quartz crystals have been used for centuries in healing. Egyptians used them in pyramids to

attract the power contained in light. Their triangular shapes held mystical appeal. American

Indians have long revered the crystal as a sacred symbol of light. Crystals have been used to cut

a newborn's cord, and are often buried with the dead in addition to use in many ceremonies andrituals. In the Tibetan culture, crystals are considered sacred objects that are empowered with the

elements. Many cultures carry them in pouches for protection from negativity.

Crystals have been used for healing the body, transforming the spirit, inspiring intuitive insight,

guarding against negative vibrations, and smoothing the energy flows of spirit and body.

Gem Stone

Yat pinde tat brahmande is a Sanskrit verse that was written 8,000 years ago. The expanded translationstates, "Whatever is inside you is outside you. Whatever is outside you is within you." This means that

the air, water, fire, earth, and cosmic energy outside you is within you. No scientist, atheist, or cynic will

deny that he is made out of 75% water, he needs air every second, he needs to maintain a body

temperature of 98.6 Fahrenheit, and he needs food from the Earth to survive.

This food comes from the upper layer of the Earth. If we go further down into the Earth, you will find the

roots which help us to survive. If we go down further into the Earth, then we discover the minerals

which we need to survive. The most essential element of the above mentioned breakdown of the Earth

is the concentrated form of energy or as is known by Vedic science, the essence of Earth...or gemstones.

The right proportions of food, air, water, and heat give us life and energy. Similarly, the right gemstoneswill provide a harmonious and more improved life. You may say that you don't eat gemstones but you

do eat food. Gemstones work the same way that lightening effects you, or how the Sun ray's give you

Vitamin D, or how the sound of soothing music relaxes you. The aroma of onions will make you cry even

though you don't touch them. Gemstone energy works on your mind. When the mind is balanced, you

will make less mistakes and you will have more time, money, and energy to construct a better future.

You may still argue as to how a piece of rock will help you. Take for example a knife made outof iron. However, when the doctor uses the knife with the right knowledge, that piece of iron

becomes a life saving tool. Vedic Astrological Science is based on the physics of Nature and the

chemistry of the Earth. Combining the five basic elements: Fire, Water, Air, Earth and Cosmic

Energy, you conclude at Vedic astrological gemstones. The more you harmonize with these

energies, the better conductivity of success will develop within you and around you. Nature

provides these elements, without which you cannot exist. Therefore Nature controls your every

second. Furthermore, Nature inspires the mind, which in turn influences the body to actpositively or negatively according to the harmony of cosmic energy and environment.

Remember, we generate the right prescription based upon your own very unique birth place,

date, and time of birth.


14/47

Nature will not come knocking on your door to help you. You must take advantage of this light

and put it to work for a better future.

Please Note Vedic Gemstones also known as Jyotish Gemstones, Astrological Gemstones, Healing

Gemstones, Holistic Gems, Navratna, Jyotish Gems, Planetary Gems, Birthstones.

By wearing properly prescribed gemstones under proper supervision, you can benefit from the natural

healing characteristics of Vedic astrological gemstones. We do not recommend these Vedic astrological

gemstones to be applied in lieu of necessary medical attention. By no means is this information a self-

help panacea. However, we do recommend the application of Vedic astrological gemstones in efforts to

reduce discomfort in a natural and time-demanding situation. One must remember that we are not

qualified medical experts.

However, we have empirical evidence that utilizes the examination of your horoscope and family

background for a prescription. Our 'dosages' are monitored and are based on the size and type of

gemstones. The ancient scientific scriptures consistently mention the relationship between color,planets, and gemstones. With the almost sacred color stratification, ROYGBIV (Red, Orange, Yellow,

Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet), we see the correlation perfectly. The cosmic rays that manifest themselves

in various wavelengths (colors) have unique affects on the health of our mind and body. The purest of

the ROYGBIV rays resides concentrated in precious gems, and so, the gems are of great curative value.

The stones and its importance are as follows:

RUBY - Manik (for Sun)

Manikya or Ruby, the rarest of gemstones, is a Red Sapphire and often regarded as the king of

gems. Rubies vary in color and brighten in strong light. Some rubies are pinkish red or

violet/purplish red in color, with different colors and shades of color often found in the same

stone.

Manikya or Ruby balances Surya (Sun). Surya represents the king of the solar system in Jyotish.

It also represents Authority, Power, Self, Father, Body and Health. Depending on the placementof Surya in your birth chart, the wearing of a ruby may be very auspicious in strengthening the

positive influences of Surya.

Surya, the Sun acts like the thalamus in the human physiology. The Sun is the central focal point


15/47

in the solar system as is the thalamus in our body. All activity in the solar system revolves

around the Sun. In our physiology, all activity is controlled and ordered by the thalamus.

Enlivening the positive influences of Surya strenghens the physiology and strengthens thequalities of Surya in our daily life.

BLUE SAPPHIRE - Neelam (for Saturn)

ndraneela or Blue Sapphire is known for its striking lustre and color which range from light tovery dark blue. Blue Sapphires may be given a variety of cuts; the most common being the oval

cut. Blue Sapphires are one of the most highly prized of the corundum species.

Shani or Saturn represents Longevity, Discipline, Authority, Ambition, Leadership, Honesty,

Perfection, Humility, Elders, Denial, Delays, Misery, Adversity, Accidents, Conservatism and

Dutifulness. It's role is often symbolized as a servant. It's influence is often seen as restrictive orobstructive yet its influence also seeks to bring balance. It's influences may be harmonized by the

Blue Sapphire. Shani is furthest from the Sun.

Shani or Saturn in the human physiology is expressed through the activities of the putamen. The

putamen, like Shani in the solar system, is placed at the outer edge of the basal ganglia. It's

influence, like Shani, is that of a servant. It receives major input and instructions that it transmitsto the basal ganglia.

YELLOW SAPPHIRE - Topaz/Pukharaj

(for Jupiter)

Pushparaga / Pukhraj or Yellow Sapphire is a lesser known gem in today's market. Known asOriental Topaz until the mid-1800's Colors vary from light yellow to golden and honey yellow.They have considerable lustre, come in a variety of cuts and are increasing in market value.

Pushparaga / Pukhraj or Yellow Sapphire harmonizes and benefits Guru or Jupiter, the largest

graha (planet) in the solar system. It signifies Knowledge, Wisdom, Virtue, Fortune, Justice,Education, Future, Religion, Philosophy, Devotion, Children, Distant Travel, Spirituality,

Truthfulness, Prosperity and Charity. Guru is the major instructor or teacher and influences

action with the highest order and balance. Guru guides action in the most harmonious and

uplifting manner and balances inner and outer input while simultaneously performing andmonitoring action.


16/47

Guru or Jupiter's influence in the human physiology is through the globus pallidus. This globular

structure is like a teacher in the physiology. It gives balanced and higher-order instructions,

balances and maintains harmony between inner and outer input, manages and executes complexsystems and enlivens activity in the brain while guiding action. It signifies highest-order thinking

- Knowledge has organizing power.

PEARL - Moti

(for Moon)

Mukta or Pearl is the most valued of the organic gems. A Pearl is a very special and exclusivegift of nature considered universally as the oldest known gem. The most valued come from theocean and have a visible lustre or sheen with the most common being white or cream with a rose

overtone.

Mukta or Pearl represents the queen in Jyotish. The Pearl is often called the queen of the sea. ThePearl harmonizes Chandra, the Moon which directly influences Emotions, Mind, Affluence, and

Public. Wearing a Pearl can bring harmony and stability to these influences. Chandra influences

the Seasonal, Monthly and Daily Cycles and Rhythms in the physiology and our emotions.

Chandra, the Moon, occupies a central role in the solar system and in our physiology. Thisinfluence is represented by the hypothalmus in our physiology which controls our behavior, our

emotions, our hormonal and reproductive cycles and our body temperature. It nourishes the

physiology like a mother or queen and occupies a central place in the centre of the brain with the

thalmus.

RED CORAL - Moonga (for Mars)

Vidruma / Moonga or Coral is an organic gem that comes from reefs and atolls. The most valuedCoral is the noble red Coral seen here (Corallicum rubrum). The color is uniform throughout

with no pits or color streaks. Polished Coral has a vitreous lustre. Due to pollution, Coral is an

endangered species.

Vidruma or Coral influences Mangal or Mars which is responible for the Field of Activity,

Energy, Courage, Ambition, Sports, Property, Strength, Commander, Technical Ability,

Mechanical, Forcefulness and Bravery. In Jyotish, Mangal is known as the commander-in-chief,due to its influence in organizing and managing direction in activity. Mangal or Mars is like a

General with its focus on precision and power in activity.

Mangal in our physiolgy is associated with the Red Nucleus, Pars Compacta, and Amygdala.

These structures in the brain control activity by providing checks and balances, activating and

inhibiting impulses in the brain, and maintaining steadiness and precision of movement. Theseinfluences can be strengthened with the wearing of Vidruma or Coral when recommended.


17/47

EMERALD - Panna

(for Mercury)

Marakata / Panna or Emeralds are known by their distinctive green color and can vary from light

to dark green. All Emeralds contain inclusions formed during their growth. Inclusions indicatethe stone is natural. The most common cut is the step or Emerald Cut.

Marakata or Emerald harmonizes and strengthens the Positive Influences of Budha or Mercury.

These influences include Intelligence, Education, Speech, Teaching, Learning, Communication,Confidence, Writing, Drawing, Trade, Humour, Wit, Discrimination, Diplomacy, Intellect and

Commerce. Budha or Mercury is the Prince in Jyotish and is influenced by Surya and Chandra.

Budha or Mercury in the human physiology is associated with the sub-thalamic nucleus which

resides in the brain and receives input from various parts of the brain which directly influences

its activity. Similar to the placement of Budha or Mercury which revolves around Surya (Sun)

and is directly influenced by that relationship, the sub-thalamic nucleus activity is influenced bythe input it receives and modulates its output accordingly.

HESSONITE - Gomedh (for Rahu)

Gomedhaka / Gomedh or Hessonite is a variety of grossular garnet. It has good lustre and lookstransparent. The color is brownish-orange and is often called Cinnamon Stone. These gems are

often given step or mixed cuts. Hessonite Garnets are found especially in Sri Lanka.

Gomedhaka or Hessonite Garnet represents Rahu, the ascending node of the moon. It's natural

significations include Worldly Desires, Worldly Benefits, Laziness, Gratification, and Ignorance.It is by nature unpredictable and creates sudden changes and Influences, Rigidity and Passion. Itis similar to Shani or Saturn in its nature and influence.

Traditionally, Rahu is known as the head of the dragon. In the human physiology, Rahu

corresponds to the head of the caudate. The caudate is involved in the control of the saccadic eye

movements (the abrupt short shifts of focus in the eyes). The caudate influences memory in

relation to orientation in space. The caudate is responsible for our ability to change behaviorpatterns.

CAT'S EYE - LehSuniya(for Ketu)

Vaidurya / Lehsuniya or Cat's Eye is the name given to the variety of chrysoberyl whichbeautifully displays the phenomenon of chatoyancy. The numerous inclusions line up to form

very fine, parallel crystal needles. Cat's eyes are always cut in cabachons to emphasize the eye

effect.


18/47

Vaidurya or Cat's Eye harmonizes Ketu which is traditionally known as the tail of the dragon. In

Jyotish, Ketu is the descending node of Chandra (Moon). It's influences are similar to Mangal or

Mars and include Liberation, Abstract Thinking, Asceticism, Non-Attachment, Healing,Moksha-Enlightenment, Wisdom and that which is hidden.

Ketu's influence in the physiology is represented by the tail of the caudate. It's influence is overlearning and emotions.

DIAMOND - Heera

(for Venus)

Vajra / Heera or Diamonds adamantine lustre gives a beautiful 'fire' or sparkle to the stone. Value

is determined by a grading system that rates color, clarity and weight with lesser value given to

cut proportions and surface finish..

Shukra or Venus is harmonized by Diamond. Shukra represents Luxuries, Romance, Partnership,

Wealth, Beauty, Arts, Comforts, Jewelry, Happiness, and Vehicles. Diamonds are also associatedwith Luxuries, Jewelry, Wealth, Beauty etc. Shukra or Venus has since antiquity symbollized

beauty, not just in material life but inner life as well. Diamonds high lustre symbolizes the

refined liveliness and loveliness of nature within and around us.

Shukra or Venus in the human physiology corresponds to the activity of the pars reticulata. This

structure in the physiology refines and controls action in the limbic system related to instincts,feelings and emotions etc. This action is associated with those impulses in the physiology that

correspond to the qualities of life influenced most strongly by Sukra.

Lal Kitab

What is Lal Kitab? (Red Book)

Lal Kitab is a mystery in itself. It is written in ancient Urdu without the element of

punctuation and sounds Greek to a layman. Poetical verses interpolated with philosophy

and hidden nuances of destiny form the core 'farmaans' of the book. The authorship isunknown.

Lal-Kitab was originally from Persia, published in urdu language without the element ofpunctuation and sounds. Lal-Kitab has announced unique remedial measures to solve

chronic and critical human problems in day-to-day life. The measures suggested in Lal

Kitab are electrically effective in solving all kinds of human troubles and tensions, without


19/47

inflicting harm on anybody i.e. these remedies are completely self defensive against the evils

created by the planets without causing injury in anyway to anyone concerned.

It is said that the solutions & remedies given by Lal Kitab are infallible. Some of them may look

pretty weird especially in these modern times, but that is the way our religion is, inexplicable,

occult yet overawing just by sheer magnitude of its diversity. That it has rightly been termed as"The Wonder Book" of Astrology. The science of palmistry too has been explained in such an

exquisite manner that each of the 42 divisions of the human brain have been related to the

different houses of a man's birth chart in such a scientific manner that the sketch of the humanbrain reflects accurately on the lines of the palm.

Basic of Lal Kitab

On the basis of these lines of the palm one can draw the actual horoscope of an individual and

can do the placement of planets in various houses of the birth chart. The date of birth and the

birth ascendant can be found out by reading the lines and mounts of the palm, which means that

an individual's accurate birth chart can be drawn by seeing the lines of his palm. Similarly, bystudying the different aspects of a man's residential house his birth chart can be accurately

prepared on the basis of the sutras explained in the Lal Kitab.

In addition to the above, Lal Kitab has announced unique remedial measures to solve chronic

and critical human problems in day-to-day life. These measures do not require the practice of

ordeals, yagnas, havans and other complicated and expensive rituals, which prove moretroublesome for persons who are already in trouble because of the evil effects of certain planets.

These measures are again different from Yantras, Mantras and Tantras, which give various

adverse effects if not followed rigorously in all their minute details.

The measures suggested in Lal Kitab are electrically effective in solving all kinds of humantroubles and tensions, without inflicting harm on anybody i.e. these remedies are completely selfdefensive against the evils created by the planets without causing injury in anyway to anyone

concerned.

The first part of this great treatise contains the principles and Sutras for interpretation ofhoroscope, termed as

"Vyakaran". The birth chart of an individual is prepared like the traditional Parashar principles,

but the only important difference is that the Rashis are not considered or taken into account forpredictive astrology and, therefore, the digits indicating the Rashis in a traditional birth chart are

scrapped.

Secondly, for predictive purposes the ascendant is treated as the first house and it is regarded as

the house of the first Rashi, i.e., Aries and counting progressively in a sequence up to the 12th

house being that of Pisces.

Origin of Lal Kitab

Red Book is an ancient book, its origin and author is not known. Astrology based on Red Book is


20/47

different from other known branches of Astrology. Very little has been done to put the theory of

red book astrology among the people. Other branches of astrology generally suggest very few

remedial measures which are complicated and expensive, whereas in Red Book RemedialMeasures suggested House wise for every Planet, which are unique and help a person to get rid

of evil effects of Planetary position in the most easiest and effective manner.

Our deep study and research thereon has enabled us to say that the theory and system suggested

in Red Book are reliable and effective. We have tried to establish the relevance of Red Book in

this modern era.

Today quite a number of Astrologers have combined their astrology with Red Book. They give

predictions according to their own theories and suggests remedial measures of Red Book which

is not the correct way. Good or Bad planet suggested by the other astrological theories may differfrom the theory of Red Book Astrology because it has different system of judging good or bad

planets, so the remedial measures suggested will not give desired results or may be ineffective.

Our deep study of Red Book reveals that whatever massages written in the Red Book are not

properly interpreted.

Many astrologers have quoted that the messages given in the Red Book are written in a hay waymanner and also are irrelevant, but nobody has tried to solve the mystic messages of Red Book

and arrange these messages systematically. Mystic messages given in the Red Book do have

specific meanings, which cannot be understood without deep study.

Lal Kitab needs no formal introduction. It is popular amongst neophytes and masters of

astrology equally. The enamoured of the remedial measures ofLal Kitab and the astrologers

who suggest them take pride in them. The measures are too simple to be explained in detail andtoo typical to be understood by an intelligent human being. Whatever be the facts they are quite

effective and cannot be just given up for their simplicity. Rather they bring credit to him whosuggests them.

Philosophy of Lal Kitab

Lal Kitab is essentially palmistry. The astrological contents that are added to it are to reflect thefindings of a palmist or rather to corroborate it.

The palm has been divided into 12 parts just as the natural Zodiac is divided into twelve signs

like Aries, Taurus etc.

Some types of shapes have been allotted to planets. These shapes wherever they exist on palm

are supposed to be occupying particular houses of the birth chart. These signs represent theplanets they are allotted to. Thus we have the twelve houses and the nine planets posted in the

chart having twelve houses. The astrological chart is ready on the basis of the palm. They are

often different from the birth charts prepared on astrological principles. The authenticity of

astrological charts is to be corrected by the chart prepared from palm imprints . How charts


21/47

are made from the palm is not our subject here. We propose only to discuss and deal with

astrological contents of the book.

Whatever be the system or method of preparation the chart has ascendant or the lagna and the

other twelve houses numbered serially. Though they are the 12 sings of the Zodiac the signs

have no significance in the chart. For signs, we may say, each horoscope is to be treated justlike the horoscope of Kala Purusha; that is, house No. 1 should be considered as identical

with Aries in all cases. As Sun is exalted in Aries and debilitated in Libra, we say that Sun is

exalted in Lagna and debilitated in the 7th house. The lordship of the houses will also golikewise. Mars is always the lagna Lord and Venus the 7th Lord.

In the palm we talk of lower Mars and upper Mars. In Lal Kitab's astrology we have two Mars,one a malefic or bad Mars and the other a benefic or a kind of good Mars. This is one peculiarity

of Lal Kitab's astrology. Both the Mars have their own properties.

As regards the comparative power of the planets it is the same as given in classical texts but at

the same time we come across the concept of equivalent planets. Mercury for instance, isconsidered to be equivalent to Sun in power of giving results.

We have a concept of blind or sleeping planets and blind or sleeping houses in Lal Kitab. The

planets are supposed to have an aspect of some houses and affect the results of those houses. In

Lal Kitab if the aspecting planet has no planet in the aspected house the aspecting planetbecomes a blind planet in the aspected house the aspecting planet becomes a blind planet

himself. It may be pertinent to note that the aspect of the planet is not the same in each house.

Sun if posited in house 2 shall not aspect the 8th house but the 6th house only and if 6th house is

unoccupied sun becomes blind. In short it is the house that grants aspect to the planet. The houseis blind if it has no planets in it. This is the concept in astrology also. We call that house as weak.

There is also a concept of the artificial planets. A group of two planets together form oneparticular artificial planet or a substitute of that planet. Sun and Venus together form one

artificial Moon. Likewise there are artificial planets for each of the planets including the nodes

Rahu and Ketu.

There is also a concept of sacrificial goats. If, suppose, Sun is afflicted by Saturn the effects ofSun shall be affected. This will not affect the effects of any other planet like Mars, Mercury or

Rahu etc.

According to Lal Kitab the affliction of Sun shall be passed on to Ketu. In other words theaffliction would affect the results of Ketu. The affliction of Saturn would be spoilt. The wife of

the native may die or suffer from miseries and troubles. It may be brought on record that such

effects have actually been noticed although Saturn does not represent wife nor he is thesignificator of wife. Such results do need a deep research and the results are likely to enrich our

astrology.

We have a basic assumption that a planet gives the results of the houses of his lordship and those

of the house occupied by him. He may, according to some, also offer the results of house or


22/47

houses of which he is the natural significator although we have our own reservations but the

planet in Lal Kitab can give results of any house by applying suitable remedies. This is a

revolutionary concept and really needs deep research work like the assumption of sacrificialgoats referred to above.

These are some of the special features ofLal Kitab's astrology. They may look strange but itshould be remembered that the basis of astrology in Lal Kitab is palmistry. Some of these

features are useful in suggesting remedies. The concept of artificial planets particularly is of

great help in remedies against planetary ills. Mercury is an enemy of Jupiter. If Mercury afflictsJupiter we may try to help Jupiter because the group of Jupiter and Rahu together is an artificial

Mercury. If Jupiter is propitiated Mercury shall lose half of his strength and Jupiter shall become

extra strong. In case Jupiter afflicts Mercury we should propitiate Venus because Sun and Venus

constitute Jupiter. By strengthening Venus we shall be increasing power of Mercury (Venus isMercury's friend) and decreasing the power of affliction of Jupiter.

Result of Planets in 12 HousesThere are twelve signs in the natural Zodiac and 12 houses in the horoscope. All affairs ofhuman life are divided into 12 classes and each class of affair is in the domain of one or the other

house of the chart.

Out of the 12 houses the first house or the lagna is the most important of them all. Being the firsthouse all the subsequent houses stand in relation to it. Every thing depends upon the strength or

otherwise of this house.

Lal Kitab states that the house is the house of struggle between Maya and Jiva or the soul and

matter. In other words it is the house of struggle to get liberation from the shakles of Maya. It isthe throne of the ruler. The achievements or failures of the native depend largely upon this house.

In Lal Kitab this house also stands for education, intelligence and longevity. Mars is the ruler of

the house. Sun is the natural significator. In fact Sun represents the human soul and vitality in thephysical body.

House No. 1

Planet posited in house No. 1 aspects the planets in house No. 7 and unburdens itself to some

extent provided the house No. 7 is occupied and not vacant. If this house is vacant the planets in

house No. 1 become inert. This is also true if the lagna is not occupied. The lagna house becomesinactive or weak. This house has a relationship with house No. 11. If the latter is unoccupied the

planet in lagna gives good results. If there are a two or more planet in lagna Venus becomes the

judge to decide about the nature of results. In other words Venus gets importance if there are twoor more planets in the lagna. Incidentally, house No. 2 is the Dharmasthana or the place of

worship. Venus is its ruler. It is but natural that our own deeds or misdeeds come to play their

part in the struggle for liberation.

House No. 2


23/47

House No. 2 stands is the Dharmasthana or the place of worship. It also has the portfolios of

wealth, education, honour and mind. This is the house that stands for the fruits of the karmas or

the deeds and misdeeds of the native. Here is the seat of Jupiter the jagat Guru or the preceptor ofthe world at large.

House No. 9 is considered to be the ocean of Karmas. It is from house No. 9 that the winds ladenwith water of the Karmas rise and pour it on house No. 2. For good results of House No. 2 the

house No. 8 should be vacant or unoccupied. The results are likely to be better if house No. 2 is

also vacant. This may appear strange but every thing becomes clear if we go by the assumptionsof Lal Kitab. Planets in house No. 2 are aspected by the planets in house 2 aspect the planets in

house No. 6. If houses 2, 6 and 8 are all occupied the poison of house No. 8 shall be transferred

to house No. 6 through the agency of the aspect of the planets in house No. 2. If houses 2 and 8

are both vacant there is no question of compounding the troubles of 6th house.

House No. 2 gets its strength from house No. 4. Wherever there is a severe onslaught of

misfortunes from house No. 9 due to the weakness of Dharmasthana or the Jagatguru or Venus,

house No. 4, comes to rescue. In times of adversities we should look towards the strength of 4thhouse, its lord the natural significator or Karaka Moon who stands for mother as well as

mortality and mind. Perhaps mother's blessings may help the native tide over his/her difficulties.

House No. 3

Lal Kitab refers to house No. 3 as the times of exit from this world and the gateway of exit. In

other words we come to know about the time of death and its causes. As illness is one of the

routine ways of exit we have to judge the illness and diseases from this house. This is aninauspicious and malefic house that way. Malefic in Dusthanas or inauspicious houses are

normally considered to be a good placement.

According to Lal Kitab are placements of sinners meaning Rahu and Ketu in house No. 3 is

horrible. It is said that even if they are not able to bring about the end itself they shall be

competent to bring about death-like position. This may happen when house 3 is occupied byRahu or Ketu and houses 6 and/or 8 by malefic. In adversities this house gets strength from 12th

house even though the planets in 12th house are enemies of the planets in the 3rd house. In a

hypothetical case let us assume that Ketu occupies house No. 3 and Mars is posited in house No.12. Mars is an enemy of Ketu but in emergencies Mars will always help Ketu despite his enmity.

Ketu shall have no ill effects upon the native. Likewise Jupiter in the 3rd house and Mercury his

enemy, in 12th house will not be able to cause any harm.

On the other hand there will be all round happiness and prosperity. If the houses are occupied by

two or more planets we have to assess the harm, in any, in respect of each planet and then draw

our final conclusions. Rahu and Venus in 12th house normally being about the death of thepartner - wife or husband - in 24/25th year of the native. If Saturn occupies the 3rd house

simultaneously Rahu will not be able to play his mischief. Saturn will help Venus.

Mercury is the lord of 3rd house, Mars its natural Significator and Rahu shall have the dignity of

exaltation.


24/47

House No. 4

House No. 4 is the period of childhood and the prenatal period. It also covers the old age. Moonis the lord and natural significator of the house. It is a well-known assumption that Moon is

strong by night. Similar is the position of planets in this house. They are strong by the night and

also when there is some trouble. Jupiter gets exalted here. No planet gives bad effects to theaffairs of this house if Moon does not occupy and of the house No. 1, 4, 7 or 10. Even the rank

malefic like Rahu and Ketu become benefic for this house is Moon does not occupy any of the

quandrangular houses. The bad effects of planets in house No. 4 are transferred to the affairs ofthe house occupied by Saturn.

For the pre-natal period if any if Jupiter, Sun, Mars or Mercury are in 4th house and child will besafe and healthy in mother's womb before birth and even Rahu or Ketu would not be able to spoil

that.

House No. 5

House No. 5 is the house of progeny and the future of the native. How shall the native fare in theworld can be known from his house No. 5. About the welfare of children also we have to judge

the same house. So long as Jupiter is in good position there shall be peace and prosperity. This

means that Jupiter should be benefic by his placement and position in the annual progressedcharts. If houses 6 and/or 10 are afflicted the articles connected with the planet inimical to theplanet in 5th house should be kept under ground in the house. If house No. 8 is also afflicted the

article should be kept under ground in the ancestral house.

In case house No. 5 is occupied by Rahu and Saturn, Venus in 11th house, Ketu in 8th and

Jupiter in the 10th house there shall be illness initially to the partner and thereafter the son is

likely to suffer. For this malady loaves of bread or flour of the weight of the son should be givento dogs for 25 to 48 days. If house 4 or 4 or 9 is afflicted the planet in house 5 shall give bad

results. The planets in houses 6 or 10 will also give bad results without any regard whether they

are friends or foes of the planet in house No. 5. Rahu and Ketu will influence results according totheir placement in the chart.

Sun is the lord of this house. Jupiter is the Karaka graha or the natural significator planet for thehouse.

House No. 6

House No. 6 is known as the hidden world, treasure house of mercy and providential help. HouseNo. 6 is ruled by Mercury and hence the planet in house No. 6 is likely to afflict the results ofhouse occupied by Mercury, Ketu or Venus. House No. 6 is inspected by the planets in house

No. 2 and the house No. 8 through house No. 2. In such a case if Mercury or Rahu happen to be

posited in house 6 there would be no bad effects of the malefic on the house because it is thehouse of exaltation for both of them. Ketu is the natural significator of the affairs of the house.


25/47

It has been said above the houses 2, 6 and 8 are mutually inter-connected with each other. While

attempting and modification in any of the houses including the 6th house we have to keep in

view all the three houses. If house No. 6 is unoccupied there shall be no transfer of the afflictionsof 8th and 2nd houses. There shall also be no aspect from 6th house to 12th house. The obvious

result would be that the planets in 2nd and 12th houses will get extra strength. To avail of this

opportunity is houses 2 and 3 are occupied by benefics it would always be helpful to awakenhouse No. 6. This is possible by serving the maternal uncles (helping them) or serving thedaughters of the daughter. Except Sun, Jupiter and Moon all the other planets in 6th house would

be offering their own results. Mercury and Ketu will not offer good results till the age of the

planet in house 6 or 8. The question of the ages of planets will be dealt with at its proper place.

Although the planets in house No. 6 are aspected by the planets in house No. 2 but the position

would be reversed in the case of Saturn who will aspect house No. 2 from 6th house.

House No. 7

House No. 7 is known for the family affairs, where the native has to struggle hard for fulfillinghis material wants of bread, clothing the housing etc. It has been apply described by Lal Kitab in

the following words.

The native gets ground between the earth and the sky for food . Here Akaash, Zameen, Rizqueand Akal have been used metaphorically for Venus and Mercury because both these planets arethe natural significators and Venus is also the lord of the house. The native sweats himself out in

search of his food and clothing etc. Sun, Moon and Rahu offer the results according to the

placement and position of Venus. Bad results due to the position of Venus cannot be improved ormitigated by remedies. In other words these results shall come to pass and the remedies will all

go waste. Mercury, Saturn and Ketu shall give their results at various periods. If these results are

bad we may try some remedial measures and they shall be set right or improved.

Normally the male planets affect the male relations and the female planets on affliction

affect the female ones. In house 7 if the planets are more than two in number only the malerelatives are affected. Sun, Mars and Jupiter are the male planets. Moon and Venus are females.

House No. 8

House No. 8 deals with death and justice. Here justice means eye for eye and tooth for tooth.

In other words the justice is on the basis of tit for tat.

It is the joint seat of Mars and Saturn. Both are the natural significators of the house if Sun,Moon and Jupiter singly or jointly occupy this house the bad effects remain limited to house No.8 and its affairs. Saturn, Moon or Mars occupying this house singly give only good fruits. Saturn,

Moon or Mars occupying this house singly give only good fruits. If, however, any two or all the

three together join in this house they give bad results. Saturn will give deaths after deaths. Moonshall affect the health of the persons.


26/47

Mars and Mercury occupying the house jointly give good results only if Saturn occupies house

No. 2. In such a case Mars shall be malefic or the negative Mars. House No. 8 has its influence

on house 6. If any of these houses is afflicted the results will be bad for both the houses. In suchcases the planets in 12th house should also be judged. The planets may be friendly or inimical

the planets in 12th house shall influence the results. Moon is the most powerful planet for the

affairs of 8th house. Moon by strength of his placement and position can undo the ill of 12thhouse also. The cause of the malefic nature of 8th house will be house No. 4 through house No.2. In other words the houses 2, 4 and 8 should be judged simultaneously. The planets in house 8,

if inimical to planets in 2nd house and 11th will strike at the most vulnerable point.

House No. 9

House No. 9 is known as the commencement of luck. Lucky period of the native shall start,

good or bad, when the planet in this house becomes effective. The house is considered to be a

great ocean. In case the house is inert, it can be activised through house No. 2 if the other two

houses namely the houses 3 and 5 are unoccupied. Any of the planets who has been dormant till

he transits house No. 9 and becomes active he will give results at his own age till his period iscompleted. Every planet has been assigned a particular period of age. By way of illustration, if

Jupiter is in house 2 and transits the house in the progressed chart he will give results at the ageof 16 and continue to do so till 16 years. Planets in house No. 5 aspect the planets in house 9. If

Sun or Moon occupy house 9 there will be no bad effects of even Rahu and Ketu. House No. 9 is

the seat of Jupiter.

House No. 10

House No. 10 is treated as the ground for the foundation of luck. The planet transiting the

house, according to the progressed chart, becomes a doubtful planet. This is to say that nobody

can be sure about the nature of results to be given by the planet. The planet in 9 at the time of histransiting house 10 will give bad results even though the planets in house 6 & 5 are the friends.The nature of results would depend upon the nature of houses 8 and 2. The results will be bad if

house 8 is afflicted and good if house 2 is in good shape. If house No. 10 is occupied by inimical

planets their results shall be unpredictable An idea of the nature of results can be formed fromthe position and placement of Moon. If Moon is benefic good results shall be obtained. In case

house 10 is unoccupied the planets in house No. 4 will not be able to give good results. Saturn is

the natural significator of the house.

House No. 11

House No. 11 indicates all about the native's status and condition . Personal income and

earnings of the native and his relation with the world at large can be judged from this house. The

results of Rahu and Ketu, if occupying the house, can be judged and they will be good normallyif house No. 3 is vacant. They will however, give bad results in house No. 8.

Ketu in house No. 11 would nullify the good effects of Moon and if Rahu occupies the houseJupiter's good results would be spoilt. Vice versa in each case would also be true.


27/47

Lal Kitab has given great importance to this house and planets in it. Even Rahu and Ketu give

good results. If Rahu is a benefic the native shall not accept a single penny from his parents and

whatever he gets will be lost to him due to one reason or the other; but all that he earns by thesweat of his own brow will be with and give him pleasure.

House No. 12

House No. 12 is the place of final rest according to the deeds or misdeeds of the native.House 10 reflects the physical valour etc. of the native but 12th deals with the character etc. Ifhouses 2, 6 and 8 are occupied the native has good character. If houses 2 and 8 are occupied and

there is no planet inimical to planet in 8th house the person shall command a keen intellect of

very high order. If the life span is divided into 4 compartments we can judge how the native shallfare by the houses 1 to 3, 4, to 6, 7 to 9 and 10 to 12 in each part of his life respectively. Planet in

No. 11, its position and placement shall give a glimpse of worldly status of the native. This can

be modified by the condition of house No. 12. For improvement of the position of 12th house we

look to house No. 1 and its planets. In other words, we can improve and get better results in

house No. 12 if we can somehow improve the position of planets in lagna. If lagna is vacant weshould go to house No. 2 for improvement.

Sun and Its Remedies by Lal kitab

1. The Sun as lord of the 5th, the Mercury as lord of the 3rd and 6th, the Jupiter as lord of the9th and the Saturn as lord of the 10th are directly or indirectly in some form or the other are the

Karakas of the father and his property. But the Jupiter and the Sun, Jupiter and Mercury orJupiter and Saturn occupying any house jointly carry no relevance to the knowledge about father

or father's property at all. Even Mercury and Sun, Mercury and Saturn or Sun and Saturn alsositting together behave in the same manner.

2. If two or more inimical planets are occupying a single house, they will not behave as enemies.

But it does not mean that they do not affect the influences of each other and show their own

results of being in that house independently i.e. their conjunction does not affect their individualresults.

3.Friendly planets together occupying a house become extremely friendly and help each otherin producing good and auspicious results.

4. The 7th house is regarded as the Pucca Ghar (permanent house) of Mercury. If Mercury isplaced in the 7th house of a horoscope, even the powerful planets like Sun, Mars, Jupiter and

Saturn occupying a Kendra, 2nd or 11th house can not affect the health of the native adversely.

5. If a female planet is placed in any house along with Saturn and both are being aspected by any

other planet, then the expecting planet will become afflicted and affect adversely the persons and

relatives of such expecting planet as Karakas.


28/47

6. In general, all planets in their Pucca Ghar, own house or exalted house give good results. A

planet in inimical house or in a house of debilitation gives bad results. If a planet is not placed in

his Pucca Ghar and the same is occupied by a planet inimical to such planet, then that planet willdestroy the good results of the house in which he stands placed.

7.While examining a horoscope, the 1st, 7th, 8th and 11th houses must be examined togetheras they are mutually interested. The planets in the ascendant is treated as a ruler and the one in

the 7th acts as his minister. The planet in the 8th is the eye of that ruler, whereas the planet in the

11th house is the ruler's foot.

More planets in the 7th house than the 1st house shows that the ruler does not have required

control over his minister. If the planets in the 11th house are inimical to the planets in the

first house, then they will not obey the command of the ruler i.e., the results of the 11th house

will be adversely affected.

The planets of the 8th house (eyes) guide the planets of the 7th house (minister) and control their

actions and effects. If the planets of the 1st and 8th houses are friendly, then the planet in the 7thhouse can not play any mischief.

Mars in the 7th is considered to be highly conducive for gaining large property. But if Mercury is

in the Lagna, it will destroy the properties. It will be destroyed because of the foolishness of thenative, because here the Mercury being in the first house is Karaka of the native. At the sametime if the Mercury is in the 8th house, it will again destroy the properties, but here the reasons

for destination will be unknown and invisible, because the active elements of the 8th house are

always secretive and mysterious in nature over which the native has no control.

Similarly, if the planets of the 1st and 11th houses destination are friendly, they will control the

planets of the 7th house. If they are inimical, the results would be bad.

The planets of the 1st house aspect the planets of the 7th house. If they are mutually inimical,then the bad results accrue because of the foolishness or unworthiness of the native. The planets

of the 8th house aspect the planets of the 2nd house and thereby affect their results.

8.2nd, 6th, 8th, 12th and 11th houses must also be examined simultaneously as follows :

(a) The planets of the 8th house aspect the 2nd house and thereby affect the results of the 2ndhouse. The effects of the aspects of the planets of the 8th house over the 2nd house are affected

by the planets of the 11th house - favourably if friendly and unfavourably if inimical.

(b) The planets of the 2nd house aspect the 6th house and affects its results. The planets of the

6th and 8th houses have secret relations with each other, because of which they also affect the

planets of the 2nd house (+++).

(c) The 12th house also affects the 2nd house (+++). If there are evil planets in the 6th and 8th

houses, (because of their secret/implied conjunction) their evil power increases 10 times.


29/47

(d) If the planets in the 12th and 8th houses are inimical, the native should not visit temples and

other places of worship.

9. The 3rd, 11th, 5th, 9th and 10th houses must also be examined simultaneously as follows :

(a) If there is any planet in the 3rd house, it will start showing effects after the birth of thenative's younger brother. If the 9th and 5th houses are occupied by Saturn Rahu or Ketu then the

unfavourable changes start coming up in the native's life just after the birth of the child.

(b) If there are good planets in the 9th house and there is no planet in the 2nd house, the native

remains deprived of all the benefits.

(c) If there is no planet in the 4th house, or it is occupied by Rahu, Ketu or Saturn, then the good

results of the 10th house will not be received by the native. If 10th and 2nd houses are empty, the

good results of the 4th house will go waste.

(d) If the 3rd and 9th houses are bad, the 5th will also prove bad.

(e) If the 9th is occupied by Sun or Moon, the 5th house will give good results.

(f) If the 9th is occupied by Sun or Moon, then Rahu or Ketu in the 5th will neither affect the

issues of the native or the native himself adversely.

(g) If Rahu or Ketu be placed in the 5th and there are inimical planets in the 8th then strokes of

misfortune will hit the native through the 11th house. The relatives indicated by the planets of

the 5th and 8th houses will also be affected. In this situation the earnings of the native will alsobe affected very adversely, if the 2nd house is empty. Nothing will be able to save the native.

Now the planets of the 10th and 5th will also turn to be malefic whatever be their naturalcharacter.

The author of Lal Kitab has enunciated such significant principles of astrology that stand well

tested today and as such they are of utmost importance in our day to day life. In view of this, aneffort is being made here to describe some unfailing principles and astrological precautions

for the benefit of people at large.

Lal Kitab remedies are as follows:

To begin with, no temple with idols should be constructed even for individual worship in a

residential house. However, keeping photos or drawings of deities on paper is not prohibited.This is highly inauspicious for the natives born with Jupiter in 7th house.

If there is a small dark room at the end of the house, where there is no passage for air or light,

the same should be left as it is and no attempt should be made to facilitate natural light through

opening windows etc. in that room otherwise, misfortunes will strike the residents.


30/47

Places where ornaments or money is kept secretly must not be left empty. If there is nothing to

be kept, please put some dry fruits there.

There must necessarily be some uncemented place in a house. But if it is not feasible, the

articles related to Venus must be installed and established therein.

Worship of lord Ganesh is highly auspicious for children and property.

For safe delivery of children, a milk pot filled with milk and a sugar pot filled with sugar must

be touched by the delivering mother and kept at some different place. After the delivery both the

pots should be offered to some temple and should not be brought back from there. Good effectswill multiply if the quality of the pots is good.

If one's children do not survive the native must distribute salty preparations in place of sweets,

to celebrate the birth of the child.

Digging of wells or providing drinking water facilities for public is strictly prohibited for thosewith moon in 6th house of the birth chart. Any violation of the above would invite utterdestruction and extreme poverty.

Building of dharmshalas, sarais or inns is strictly prohibited for those having Saturn in 8th

house.

Saturn in Lagna and Jupiter in 5th house cause death of children one after the other, if copper

coins are given in charity.

Jupiter in 10th and moon in 4th cause false allegations and critical legal proceedings against

the native if he builds temples or gurudwaras.

Financial aid to widows and scholarships to poor children are strictly prohibited for those

having Venus in 9th house.

Grave consequences would folllow if a native with moon in 12th house opens schools for free

education, or offers food to religious saints and Jogins.

Anyone having Jupiter in 7th house must not offer clothes to anyone in charity

Donations in the morning and evening hours by persons having Sun in 7th or 8th house of their

horoscope will produce highly harmful and poisonous effects.

The younger brother should never go for adoption of children of the elder brother. At the same

time he should also not arrange the free marriage of the daughter of his elder brother. These

practices would certainly lead to disastrous consequences.

Saturn in 11th house makes the native desert his wife and children in young age, whereas

Saturn in the groom's 2nd house proves inauspicious for the bride's family.


31/47

Mercury and Rahu combining in houses 3, 8, 9, or 12 of the groom is also inauspicious for the

bride's family.

Venus and Ketu together in Lagna make the native impotent.

The groom is likely to be of bad sexual habits and may destroy his wealth in that, if theplanetary positions are as follows:

(a) Sun in 6th and Mars in 10th with the afflicted 12th house.

(b) Moon in Lagna and Jupiter in 11th house.

(c) Jupiter and Venus in 10th house

Mundane Astrology

Mundane Astrology is the astrology of countries, otherwise known as Political Astrology. Even

countries have birth charts and some have more than one based upon the time of some majorevent in its history, such as gaining independence. Mundane charts are subject to transits and

progressions just like any other chart.

In the UK there is a chart drawn up each year known as the Ingress Chart. It is set for the time

that the Sun enters the sign of Capricorn, around 22nd December. This is also the time of the

Winter Solstice. This chart gives indications of what may occur during the following year for the

government and the country generally.

In Mundane Astrology, the houses govern different aspects relating to the country as a whole,

rather than the individual meanings in a natal birth chart. The meanings are similar, but applied

in context of a much wider spectrum. Special note is taken of eclipses affecting a mundane chartas they signify major upheaval.

The Houses and what they govern in Mundane Astrology
