Y enbeeyes hails from a Tamil family

wherein he learnt astrology from hisgrandfather who knew the entire BPHS by

heart. He was first asked to learn by heartthe Sanskrit verses of BPHS & then slowlytaught astrology by his grandfather who was his Guru. After 3 years of teaching onlyBPHS, he was then taught Jaimini Sutras atthe age of 23. Yenbeeyes is our author’s penname and he having retired in 2007 hastaken up to the cause of astrology full timeand is currently translating Jaimini Sutras

into Tamil. Saptarishis Astrology hasobserved that Shri Yenbeeyes pursues thisscience with an unmatched discipline anddedication which is praiseworthy.

1. Introduction

o begin with I must expressmy sincere thanks to

Saptarishis Astrology e-magazine which was instrumentalin learning a new System ofAstrology. Yes. I accidentally cameacross the magazine Volume 2published in May 2008. Whilescanning through the articles I cameacross an article titled ‘3, 6, 10, 11

houses’ published in Page 53 writtenby Sri Krushna Jugal Kalani. Thisarticle took me to his web-sitehttp://krushna.sageasita.com/ andthat was the beginning of thelearning of the New System called‘Krushna’s Ashtakavarga System.’It took me nearly 6 months to study

the system thoroughly andunderstand the intricacies of thesystem. I also had a personalinteraction with him on variouspoints for about three days. I amhappy to dedicate this write up tohim and his family.

Krushna’s Ashtakavarga System is not known to many nor are there anybooks available on the System in the market. Just now Krushnaji haspublished a book in Marathi language and there is a great demand forpublication of the same in English too. The only way to learn his system atpresent is studying the lessons found in his web site given above and in an

interactive way by joining the Yahoo groups at:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/astrologyandtimingevents.

The effectiveness of the System has been tested by many Astrologersand many have agreed to the soundness of the same particularly for timing ofevents. Mrs. Sandy Crowther, the noted Astrologer of the West hadconducted a Research Study on the System on ‘Marriage/RelationshipProblems’ using this technique and the results of her research are available inone of the messages in the group mentioned above. (Message No. 6683).

Ashtakavarga System, as everyone knows, is a method of calculating thepower of planets with respect to each other. Ashtakavarga deals with theparticular aspect of a human being as it deals with all the seven planetsexcluding Rahu and Ketu and the Lagna which form the crux of the JyotishSystem.

I am not going into the details of how the Ashtakavarga is calculated.But one must remember that the individual Ashtakavarga called BinnaAshtaka Varga (BAV) as well as the combined Ashtakavarga called SarvaAshtaka Varga (SAV) both are required for calculating the power of theplanets which depend on its relative position versus other planets. Thecalculation part is well explained in the lessons given on the site itself. Almostall software also gives the Ashtakavarga positions.

The System has software prepared in Excel available in the yahoo

groups as well as in the site for download. All the calculations required aredone through this software and there is no need to do any manual calculation.Readers can download the latest version from this link:http://krushna.sageasita.com/kas_worksheets.htm

In this article, I am covering only the timing of marriage using theprinciples given in the System. For this purpose I have collected as many as108 horoscopes from friends and relatives which are all Indian charts and have

taken up a few charts from Astrodatabank site in order to include some



3

foreign charts also. Under the Hindu Dharma, marriage was and is regardedas a religious sacrament and comprehends the equality of the partner to followthe path of Purushartha which are Dharma (Righteousness), Artha (Wealth),Kama (Desire) and Moksha (Salvation). Hence, in Hindu custom matchingof charts is done prior to marriage to know the compatibility of the boy and

the girl. But there are cases like love marriage wherein the matching part isomitted leading to discontent in majority cases even resulting in divorce. Suchcharts are worth studying using this technique. Here, I am restricting mystudy only to the timing of marriage where the couple is having a happyrelationship and there are no major conflicts in their conjugal life.

So with this introduction, let me move on to explain some basic rulesentirely unique for the System which are essential to follow the analysis done

in this article. Please note that these are not the only rules applicable. It isonly a drop from the ocean.

2. Basic Rules

i. The System uses its Own Ayanamsa which is approximately less than54’ of Lahiri Ayanamsa.

ii. For calculation of Binna Ashtaka Varga, the System follows theVarahamihira Principle. There are variations in the calculation of thebenefic points (malefic) from a given planet – One is of Parasara and theother is Varahamihira. The difference lies in the calculation of (a) Jupiter’s contribution in Moon’s Ashtakavarga (b) Mars’ contribution inVenus’ Ashtakavarga. However the total points contributed by all planetremain the same viz. 337.

iii. There are seven planets and Lagna which partake in the AshtakavargaSystem making a total of 8. All these 8 points are to be referred to all the

12 houses and hence we get a total of 96 points out of which the positionsreferred to in the classics (either Parasara or Varahamihira) are beneficsand the rest of the places not mentioned are treated as malefic points. Ifa planet out of 8 points gets 5 points (commonly referred to as dots) itmeans it has 5 benefic points and the remaining (8-5) 3 are maleficpoints. This is a general rule of Ashtakavarga and the same is beingfollowed in the System also. One has to remember that a planet can get amaximum of 8 points and a minimum of zero points.

iv. The strength of a planet is not judged from its placement like Ownhouse or exaltation sign or debilitation sign. It is totally based on thepoints worked out on the basis of BAV only. A planet is said to beexalted if it has got more than 4 points. A planet is said to be debilitatedif it got less than 4 points. When a planet has exactly 4 points it is said

to be neutral. For example Mars is exalted in Capricorn. But if Mars hasonly 3 points in BAV then it will not be able to give the results due to itsexaltation position. Due to its low benefic points, it will not be able togive better results.

v. The aspect of planets is according to Vedic System only. Only theresults produced by this System vary. A planet with more than 4 beneficpoints will aspect in the same strength but in a malefic manner.

Similarly a planet having less than 4 benefic points will aspect in abenefic manner. If a planet gets exactly 4 points, then the effect itcreates on account of aspect will be only neutral.

Next is the Upachaya Theory which I would call as a foundation of theSystem. For a better understanding of this principle, readers may go throughthe article of Krushnaji mentioned in the introduction which was published inthis magazine. I will give a brief explanation here. Since I am going to coveronly the timing of marriage aspect, I will explain this principle with respect tothe house of marriage which is the 7th house. As per the theory of the System,Karaka for the result of any house is decided by the 8th house from any house.So the Karaka house for marriage will be the 8th from the 7th which is the 2nd house. Let us call this house as house ‘A’. The Upachaya places are the 3 rd, 6th,10th and 11th. The Upachaya houses are to be reckoned from the karaka house.Let us find out the Upachaya houses with respect to the Karaka house viz. 2

nd house. The 3rd from 2nd house is the 4

th house (which will be termed as ‘D’), 6th house from the 2nd house is the 7

th house which is the focus house for marriage(which will be noted as ‘B’) for which we are finding the result, 10

th housefrom the 2nd house is the 11

th house (which is denoted by ‘C’) and the 11

th housefrom the 2nd house would be the 12

th house (which is indicated as ‘E’). TheseUpachaya houses are again grouped into two categories based on the mutualtrine principle viz. 5:9. In the above discussion, you will notice that the 7th house and the 11th house are in mutual trine positions and they are termed asMain Upachaya houses. The other two Upachaya houses namely the 4th and12th houses are in mutual trine positions and are termed as Secondary



5

Upachaya houses. Here one point to be remembered is that the Upachayaplaces are determined with respect to the Karaka place and not from the housefor which we need to find the results.

vi. The main Upachaya houses are directly involved in the results and

hence they have been named as A, B, C – in our case the 2nd

house, the7th house and the 11th house. The secondary Upachaya houses act onlythrough their lords or through the planets placed in them. Such planets(placed there in) take part in the outcome if and only they have morethan 4 points in BAV.

vii. Next is the calculation of strength of all the 7 planets based on theirBAV. It is beyond the scope of this article to explain in detail all therules applicable in working out the strength which is called asWORKSHEET. I would advise readers to go through the lessons on theweb site to understand this principle. The final point arrived at as perWorksheet will be an indicator of timing the event. More than 12 pointsin the Worksheet is indicative of an event happening in its Antardasa.Event may happen in the period of a planet having less points in whichcase the quality is bound to suffer.

viii. Planets having lordship of houses 1st and 7th are treated as enemies. A 1:7

relationship always indicates opposition.ix. Rasi Chart and Navamsa chart have equal bearings. Aspects are

considered in Navamsa chart too.

x. The next rule is that of Samdharmi. Samdharmi is a Sanskrit word. Sam means same and dharm means custom, duty, soul, nature etc. If a planetis said to be Samdharmi of another planet, it means it can perform theduty of the other planet. In the words of Krushnaji ‘Samdharmi planets

are those planets that behave similar to each other or give the results ofother planets.’

xi. There are two types of Samdharmi. Natural and Functional. Venus andSaturn, Mars and Sun and Mars and Moon are the Natural Samdharmis.This is based on the relationship 4:10 between the lords of the houses.Venus and Saturn are mutual Samdharmis because From Libra (ownedby Venus) Capricorn (owned by Saturn) is the fourth and from

Aquarius (owned by Saturn) Taurus (owned by Venus) is in the fourth.



6

For Mars, Moon is Samdharmi and not vice versa because Moon is thefourth lord from Aries whereas from Cancer, Scorpio is the 5th house.Similarly for Sun, Mars is Samdharmi and not vice versa. Mercury and Jupiter are not mutual Samdharmis because even though from one signthey make a 4:10 relationship, with the other sign they create a 1:7

relationship. More details are available in the lessons.

xii. Functional Samdharmi has various combinations. They are

1) The planet in the 4th house is Samdharmi to a planet in the 10th house provided the planet in the fourth house has more points inAshtakavarga.

2) When two planets are in the same sign and same constellation.3) When two planets are in the same Navamsa.4)

Rahu and Ketu are Samdharmi to the Lord of the sign where theyare placed and to the Lord of the constellation in which they areplaced. They also become Samdharmi to the Navamsa depositorand the planets they conjoin in Navamsa.

5) A planet is Samdharmi to the Navamsa Lord where it is deposited.

xiii. How such Samdharmi planets act in giving the results are explained inthe lessons. For our purpose, it is enough to know that Samdharmiplanets generally act for benefic results only. For malefic results(excepting death) they will not come forward. Another condition for theSamdharmi to give the results is that it should have at least 12 points inthe Worksheet analysis. Then and only then it will act as Samdharmi.In the course of the analysis of charts, if any special rule becomesapplicable, I shall bring the same to the notice of the readers.

xiv. The Dasa System followed is Vimshottari Dasa with the number of

days for a year taken as 365 days.xv. Karaka also plays an important role in this. The natural karaka for

marriage is Venus and the Functional karaka as explained earlier is thelord of the 2nd house (Refer Krushnaji’s article referred to in theIntroduction). The position of Venus and its lordship is also veryimportant. Venus becomes spoiled (weak) in the constellations ofKrittika, Ardra and Mula and becomes moderately spoiled in Jyeshta.Venus gets more spoiled if it is associated or aspected by Saturn. Saturn



7

enhances the negative qualities of Venus. However, if it is aspected by Jupiter, it controls and modifies the results somewhat better.

xvi. The distance of Venus from the Sun is also a main factor here. Up to 3degrees from the Sun, it loses all of its qualities. Such a Venus reduces

the sex urge of the native. Up to 43 degrees from the Sun it behaves in anormal way and after 43 degrees, its qualities are enhanced as it increasesthe sexual feelings of the person.

xviii. Mars in association with Venus causes the native to have no controlover his or her sexual feelings. Saturn, if associated in this case may be afactor as well, in homosexuality.

xix. Moon is the controller of the mind and its affliction by Rahu also spoils

the control over the mind as well as the marriage life.xx. How are we to decide the timing of marriage? General rule is that any

event will happen either under the influence of the powerfulsignificators in the chart as indicated by the Worksheet points, or in thesub period (Antar Dasa) of the Lords of the houses ‘D’ and ‘E’. For themarriage we have already seen that the House ‘D’ is the 4th house fromLagna and House ‘E’ is the 12th house. The powerful significators areseen from the Worksheet for the 7th house. In some cases the next in linewhich is the 12th house (house of bed comforts) also play a vital role. Theplanet having the highest point is the powerful one followed by theplanet with next higher point. Event also happens in the Antar dasa ofthe planet/s placed in the 4th or 12th house provided they have more than4 benefic points in Ashtakavarga.

xxi. The main dasa period might be that of the karaka planet or it’sSamdharmi.

xxii.

The Antar dasa period would be of long duration and it must benarrowed down. For this there are several rules.

xxiii. Whether the lords of the house ‘A’, ‘B’ or ‘C’ are aspected by Saturn. Inour case the 2nd house, the 7th house and the 11th house.

xxiv. If these lords are placed with Saturnxxv. If Saturn happens to be one of the lords and others too are in aspect. All

these three rules must be verified both in Rasi Chart as well as Navamsa

chart.



8

a. If all the three rules are applicable, then the event will be late ordelayed. For this purpose the entire Antar dasa period will bedivided into three parts and in this case the event will happen inthe 3rd or the last part.

b.

If Jupiter is aspecting the lords or Saturn is in the aspect of Jupiter,then the event will take place in the 2nd part.

c. If Jupiter alone is aspecting these lords (viz. A, B or C) the eventwill take place in the first part. Meaning that there is no aspect onthese planets from Saturn or the Lords of the A, B or C houseshave no relation with Saturn either in Rasi or Navamsa. Also noneof the planets should be in the Navamsa sign of Saturn orconstellations ruled by Saturn. That is to say such planets shouldnot have been placed in Capricorn or Aquarius or in theconstellations of Pushyami, Anuradha or Uttarabhadra. If Jupiteraspects Saturn then delay is moderated and the event will happenin 2nd sector. Jupiter need not aspect the lord. Jupiter can onlymoderate the delay if it is not in the sign of Saturn, nakshatra orNavamsa of Saturn or in Libra.

xxvi. The last step is to fix the dates which will have a tolerance level of 13

days plus or minus. For this we look to the Probable date finder listwhich is attached to the software itself. This is based on the transit ofSun. The event happens when the transit of the Sun is in theconstellation and the sign of powerful planets. Once the Antar dasa isfixed, and if it satisfies other conditions like age, time, social customs(popularly known as Desh, Kaal, and Patra) then we should select theother two planets which are 2nd and 3rd in strength. This way we havethree planets. One is used for the sub and the other two for transits.

Here, we must not neglect the first planet as it may come again intransit, due to more power, lordship of either ‘D’ or ‘E’ houses or beingSamdharmi to other powerful planets. If these lords are Lord of housewhere Moon is placed, Lagna Lord or the constellation lord, they maycome forward.

With these backgrounds let us study some charts to verify these rules. Someof the points mentioned above may be confusing or may not be clear. As Iwanted to be brief, I might not have expressed the same in the way Krushnaji

has explained. Wherever there is doubt, readers may refer to the lessons in thesite. Also all the charts presented here are worked out using the Excelsoftware provided for this purpose.

3. Analysis of charts

Example 01:

Sex: Female; DOB: 4th May. 1957; TOB: 14:25; POB: Kumbakonam, TN, India;Latitude: 10 N 58; Longitude: 79 E 23; Time Zone: IST -5:30: KAS Ayanamsa –22:22:4

A note about the charts: Both Rasi and Navamsa charts of the female aregiven in southern as well as northern styles. In the Southern Rasi chart, theheading number 11 given indicates that the 11th house in the natural zodiacalorder is the 7th house of the chart i.e. Aquarius which is termed as house ‘B’.The 8th house from this viz. Virgo is the karak house and is named as house‘A’. The Upachaya houses from house ‘A’ are 4th house (‘D’), 7th house (‘B’),11th house (‘C’) and the 12th house (‘D’) which are marked clearly in the innersquare of the chart. The numbers given in each house represent the Sarva

Ashtaka Varga of that particular house. In the navamsa chart also the SAVfigures are provided though we are not going to use this for the present. In thenorthern type, wherever the SAV is less than 28 they are marked in red. A, B,C, D position of houses are not marked.

Date of Marriage is 5th April 1976.

There will be a separate worksheet for each of the 12 houses and there will be asummary sheet also showing the powers of all the 7 planets for all the 12houses. In the Summary sheet the Natural Karaka, the Functional Karaka,Lords of houses D and E and many more details are available. So for a starter,



11

even if one is not well versed with the rules, the required details can be hadfrom the software itself.

For want of space I am not giving the worksheet here. However, I am givingthe Summary sheet in the next page for all the 12 houses.

From the final result, you can note that Mars is having the highest power forthe 7th house and he is the Lord of the house indicated as ‘D’. Hence marriageshould happen during this period and indeed it has happened.

Vimshottari Dasa running was Jupiter Maha Dasa and Mars Antardasa from5th January, 1976 to 11th December, 1976.

It is always advisable to study the quality of the married life too as it has abearing on the timing of event. If the quality is going to be good, Timing willbe in the antar dasa of a high power planet. If the quality is adverse, marriagemay happen in the period of a low power planet or the 6th lord etc. However,due to place constraint, I am not duscussing the quality here. And also I haveselected those charts where the quality of the wedded life is satisfactory. Attimes if there are blessings in the chart, then the timing may get advanced.

Now let us see whether the date of marriage falls within the rules prescribedfor the probable date as given in rules (xxvi) and (xxvii).



12

The antardasa period will be 11 months and 6 days. Each part will be of 3months and 22 days.

1) Saturn is Lord of 7th. Hence we have to verify the 3rd rule. The 2nd aswell as the 11th lord is Mercury and it is not aspected by Saturn either in

Rasi or in Navamsa. Note that Jupiter alone is aspecting the Lord ofhouses A and C and hence bound to give the marriage in the 1st partitself and it has come out to be true.

2) From the Probable Date finder sheet given below, we can narrow downthe date also.

The two probable dates allowing for the 13 days grace fall under Jupiter andSaturn OR Jupiter and Mercury OR Mars and Ketu. The next higher pointsin the worksheet are taken over by Moon, Mercury, Venus and Sun. Both Jupiter and Saturn are having the lowest points in the worksheet. Look atNavamsa – Mars is placed in the house of Jupiter along with Jupiter andhence will be promoting the desires of Jupiter. Moon and Mars also becomeSamdharmi due to their joint placement in Rasi chart. Now Mercury is placed

in Scorpio in Navamsa thus becoming Samdharmi to Mars. Hence the period Jupiter and Mercury should be the decider.

I have analysed the chart of the husband at the end after rectifying the birthtime.

Example 02

Here I am taking up the charts of a husband and wife.

Worksheet Points for 7th house:Moon – 26 Jupiter – 22 Mercury – 15 Mars – 13Sun – 11 Saturn – 7 Venus - 6

Analysis:

Marriage Date is: 24th Oct., 2005

Main Period Lord:

The Mahadasa running at that time was Venus. Mahadasa Lord Venus isNatural karaka. So Mahadasa Lord indicates karakatwa of 7th, 12th and 3rd houses.

Sub Period Lord:

The Antar dasa running at the time of marriage was: Jupiter which is from20.02.2004 to 21.10.2006.For the 7th house the powerful Significators as per Worksheet are: Moon, Jupiter, Mercury and Mars in descending order of power.

Lord of House D (LoD) is Mars and Lord of House E (LoE) is Moon. Sinceboth are having high powers in WS they will be eager to give the event.Marriage has happened in the sub of Jupiter who is the 2nd highest in WS and

also SD to Moon who is the highest power planet and also Lord of house E(LoE).

Fixing the Probable Date:

Then we have to narrow it down to the actual date viz. 24th October, 2005.From the PDF sheet we note that the period from 17th Oct. to 23rd Oct. is ofVenus and Mars. Next Venus and Rahu is from 24th Oct. to 5th Nov. Moon isone of the powerful significators in the worksheet. Venus is placed in thehouse of Sun making Sun as its Samdharmi. Rahu is in the house of Sun andin the nakshatra of Venus and is likely to behave more like Venus as Venushas more points in the Ashtakavarga. Venus has fewer points in theworksheet. Hence the test has failed in the case.

The Antar dasa duration is for 2 years 8 months and 1 day. Dividing it into 3parts, we find that the marriage has happened in the last part. Let us see if thisis indicated by the rules. Saturn himself is Lord of house B and Mercury is



16

lord of A and C. Note the aspect of Saturn on Mercury in Rasi chart. Unlikethe previous chart there is no aspect of Jupiter on either Saturn or Mercury.

Now let us see the chart of the wife.

Sex: Female; DOB: 17th Nov., 1981; TOB: 5:15; POB: Villupuram, TamilNadu; Latitude: 11 N 56; Longitude: 79 E 29; Time Zone: IST -5:30

Powers of Planets for the focus house 7th Saturn – 23 Mercury – 18 Jupiter – 18 Moon – 12Venus – 11 Sun – 6 Mars - 4

Analysis:

Marriage Date is: 24th Oct., 2005

Main Period Lord: The Mahadasa running at that time was Mercury. He is the functional karakafor the 2nd house indicating family. The natural karaka for marriage Venus isplaced in the Navamsa of Mercury.

Sub Period Lord:

The Sub period running at the time of marriage was: Saturn which is from30.07.2003 to 08.04.2006.Saturn is the powerful significator as per worksheet. Saturn is also Lord ofhouse D.


Then we have to narrow it down to the actual date viz. 24th October, 2005.The next two planets having higher powers are Mercury and Jupiter. This isfollowed by Moon. On the day of marriage Sun was in Libra and in Swatinakshatra ruled by Rahu. From the probable date table we note the following:

Venus and Mars period is from 17th Oct. to 23rd Oct. Venus and Rahu is from24th Oct. to 5th Nov.



18

Rahu is placed in Cancer in Rasi chart and is in the constellation of Jupiter.Of these two planets viz. Moon and Jupiter, Moon is having more points inAshtakavarga. Hence Rahu will tend to act like Moon. Now, as already stated,Venus is placed in the Navamsa of Mercury and hence Mercury will step infor Venus. Thus, we note that both Mercury and Moon have high points in

the worksheet.

The Antar dasa period is for 2 years 8 months and 8 days. Each part may beroughly divided into 10 months and 22 days. So the date of marriage will fallin the last part of the Antara. Note the aspect of Saturn on House A and Lordof House C (Sun) in rasi chart and its aspect on Mars – Lord of House A andB. There is neither aspect of Jupiter on Saturn nor the lords of houses A, B orC though the Lord of C Sun is aspected by Jupiter in Navamsa.

Example 03:

Here is a case of Love marriage and that too Inter-caste marriage.

Sex: Female; DOB: 30th Sep., 1980; TOB: 9:48; POB: Nagercoil, TamilNadu; Latitude: 8 N 10; Longitude: 77 E 26; Time Zone: IST -5:30;KAS ayanamsa – 22:41:57

Ashtakavarga Power

Power of planets for the 7th house:Venus - 18 Jupiter – 13 Mercury – 12 Saturn – 12

Sun - 11 Mars – 6 Moon – 4

Analysis:

Marriage Date: 26th Jan. 2004

Main Period Lord:

The Mahadasa running at the time of marriage was of Jupiter. Jupiter is lordof house A – the functional Karaka house.



20

Sub Period Lord:

The Sub period running at the time of marriage was: Saturn which is from21.01.2003 to 03.08.2005.

Saturn is Lord of house D and also becomes Samdharmi of Jupiter having

placed along with him in Rasi chart. Both the planets have high power in theworksheet. Also the highest power planet Venus is a Natural Samdharmi toSaturn.

Fixing the probable date:

From the probable date finder we note that Saturn and Sun period is from 14 th Jan. to 27th Jan. Saturn and Moon period is from 28th Jan. to 9th Feb. Moon isSamdharmi to Venus the highest power planet being placed in the Navamsaof Venus. Hence, we can conclude that Saturn and Moon are responsible forthe event.

The duration of the Antar dasa is of 2 years 6 months and 12 days. Each partcomes to 10 months and 4 days. So the marriage has happened in the 2nd part.Saturn is not aspecting any of the A, B or C houses or its lords either in Rasior Navamsa.

Planet’s Power as per worksheet for the 7th house:Saturn – 32 Mercury – 23 Sun – 17

Moon – 11 Mars – 10 Venus – 8 Jupiter - 6Analysis:

Marriage Date: 26th Jan. 2004

Main Period Lord:

The Mahadasa running at the time of marriage was of Saturn. Saturn isfunctional karaka for the 5th house – indicating children related to marriage.



22

Sub Period Lord:

The Sub period running at the time of marriage was: Rahu from 31st Oct. 2002to 06th Sep. 2005. Rahu is in the house of Venus and constellation of Mars.Both Venus and Mars have equal points in Ashtakavarga. Hence the effects ofRahu will be a mixture of both Venus and Mars. Mars is placed in the 12 th

house which is House D and is having 6 points in its Ashtakavarga. Hence hewill be eager to give the results. But in the worksheet Mars is having less than12 points. Venus also has fewer points in the worksheet. Now we should turntowards the Samdharmi planets for Venus and Mars. Venus and Saturn areplaced together in Navamsa and Venus is placed in the house of Jupiter.Saturn is having the highest points in the worksheet. So Rahu through Marsand Samdharmi of Venus (Saturn) has triggered the event.

Fixing the probable date:Antar dasa duration is 2 years 10 months and 5 days. So the event hashappened during the 2nd part which is from 13th Oct. 2003 to 04th Sep. 2004.Saturn is aspecting all the three houses A, B, C in rasi chart. Saturn himself isLord of House C. Saturn is also aspecting Lord of B Mercury in Rasi Chart.Saturn is aspecting Mars, Lord of House A in Navamsa. Now Jupiter is alsoaspecting Houses B and C in Rasi chart, though it is not aspecting its lords.For delay, aspect of Jupiter on C need not be considered. To determine the

exact delay caused by Saturn as well as Jupiter, the messages in the groupswill be very handy as lots of charts have been discussed on this point..

As seen earlier, the probable date can be either fro 14th Jan. to 27th Jan or from28th Jan. to 09th Feb. in the combination of Saturn and Sun OR Saturn andMoon. Saturn and Sun both have the highest points in the worksheet andhence they are responsible for the event on the said date.

Power as per worksheet: Jupiter – 24 Mercury – 20 Sun – 18 Mars – 13Moon – 11 Venus – 10 Saturn - 9

Analysis: Marriage was held on 30th March 1964 at the age of 31 years. Hence it is a latemarriage. So the combinations for late marriage are to be checked. As thesame has not been covered in this article, let us skip this step.

Main Period Lord:

The Mahadasa running at the time of marriage was of Jupiter. Jupiter is thekaraka for the 2nd house indicating family and also karaka for 5th house

indicating children. Functional karaka Saturn is placed in the house of Jupitermaking it its Samdharmi.

Sub Period Lord:

Mercury Antar dasa is from 30-04-1962 to 05-08-1964. For the 7th house thepowerful significators are Jupiter, Mercury, Sun and Mars in descendingorder of power. LoD is Mars and LoE is Jupiter. No planet/s in house D andE. Jupiter is Samdharmi to Mercury as Mercury is placed in the house of

Jupiter in Navamsa. So both LoE and Mercury have high points in worksheet.

Probable Date finder:

In the month of March when marriage was held, Sun must be in Pisces andhence Jupiter becomes an indicator. The constellation where Sun is on thisdate is that of Mercury. Both have high points in the work sheet. The periodis from 18th Mar. to 4th Apr.

Now let us study the chart of the wife of the above individual.

Sex: Female; DOB: 27th March 1944; TOB: 22:40; POB:Thiyagasamudram, Tamil Nadu, India;Latitude: 10 N 58; Longitude: 79 E 23; Time Zone: IST -5:30; KAS Ayanamsa:



25

Power of Planets:



26

Venus – 30 Jupiter – 21 Saturn – 15 Mars – 13 Moon – 12Mercury – 9 Sun – 6

Analysis:

Marriage date as mentioned above is 30th March 1964. Mars Mahadasa wasrunning at the time of marriage. Venus the natural karaka for marriage isplaced in the house of Mars, thus making it Samdharmi.

The Antar dasa running at the time of marriage was of Venus which is from12-03-1964 to 12-05-1965. Venus is Lord of house E and is placed in house Dwith 7 points. Venus is also the highest power planet in worksheet.

If we divide the Antar dasa period of 1 year 2 months into three parts eachpart will be equal to 4 months 20 days. So marriage has happened in the 1 st part itself. Saturn is placed in house B and is aspecting Lord of house A – Jupiter and Lord of house B – Venus. Jupiter is Lord of A and is aspecting theLord of C – Mercury. This is the position in Rasi chart. In Navamsa – Jupiteris placed in the house of Saturn and conjoined Mercury the lord of House C.Hence Jupiter becoming more powerful has given the marriage in the 1st partitself.

From the Probable Date Finder we find that the period 18th Mar. to 4th Apr. is

of Jupiter-Saturn. Both have high power in the worksheet culminating inmarriage.

Example 5:

Next I will take up the chart of Jacquelin Kennedy Onassis. The purpose oftaking her chart is twofold. Firstly she had two marriages and both herhusband’s died before her death. Secondly her birth time is fairly certain.

Sex: Female; DOB: 28

th

July, 1929; TOB: 14:30; Place: Southampton, N.Y.;Latitude: 40 N 53;Longitude: 72 E 23; Time Zone: EDT + 4:00; KAS Ayanamsa – 21:58:29

Jacqueline married President John F. Kennedy on 12th Sep. 1953. John F.Kennedy died on 22nd Nov. 1963.

Jacqueline’s 2nd marriage was with Aristotle Onassis on 20th Oct. 1968.Aristotle died on 15th Mar. 1975.



27

Let us see whether we are able to time both the marriages through the system.



28

Power of planets for the 7th house:Venus – 20 Saturn – 20 Mercury – 17 Moon – 14Mars – 13 Jupiter – 8 Sun - 11

Analysis:

On 22-11-1963, at the time of her marriage she was running Moon Maha dasaand Jupiter Antar dasa which was from 15-04-1963 to 14-08-1964.

Moon indicates the karakatwa of 2nd house indicating family life.

The Antar dasa was of Jupiter. Note the points in the worksheet analysiswhich are less than 12 indicating trouble in married life.

It is clearly specified in the System that “For divorce, no children or the death

of the life partner, marriage may be in the sub period of the planet having lesspoints...”

On 20th Oct. 1968, the date of second marriage, Jacqueline was running sameMoon dasa and Venus Antar dasa. Here Venus has the highest points and isalso Lord of house E.

Example 6:

Normally people approach Astrologers to know when the native of a chartwill get married. This is more often when the concerned native has crossedthe marriageable age which we can fix as 25. Under such circumstances, thisSystem offers a clear solution definitely. I am taking up such a chart now.The native approached me in 2009 after an engagement was broken. As themarriage date was approaching, the girl suddenly refused to marry the native.The entire family of the native was subjected to humiliation, as even themarriage invitation was printed. The engagement ceremony itself was held ina big way and almost all the relatives of the boy attended the same. One canimagine the pains that the parents of the boy experienced when the girl’sfamily also supported their daughter and broke off the marriage. This timethey came to me with a question whether the chart of the boy has anyindications of marriage or not and if there is indication when will the eventhappen?

Apart from the regular Vedic rules, I tried to apply this System and came outwith the following result. The native is likely to get married during April to

June 2010. Most probably the marriage may happen in the last week of May,



29

2010 when Sun is in Taurus (Venus) and in the constellation of either Sun orMoon (i.e. Krittika or Rohini). I was just informed by the parents that themarriage of the native has been fixed and it is to be held on 24th May, 2010. Onthis day Sun will be in Taurus and in Krittika Nakshatra ruled by Sun.

The birth details are:Sex: Male; DOB: 10-06-1981; TOB: 06:37; Place: Mumbai, India; Longitude: 72E 50; Latitude: 18 N 58Time Zone: IST -5:30; KAS Ayanamsa: 22:42:32

The necessary charts generated from the Excel software KAS2006 V3.3 are asbelow:



30

Powers of the planet for the 7th house:Venus – 41 Mercury – 26 Sun – 22 Moon – 18 Mars – 15 Jupiter – 14 Saturn – 9

The native is at present running Rahu Dasa – Mercury Antar dasa which isfrom 14-08-2009 to 02-03-2012.

Rahu is placed in Cancer sign and in the Nakshatra Pushya. As such he mustbe acting either like Moon – the rasi lord or like Saturn – the nakshatra lord.In the Ashtakavarga Moon is having 5 points whereas Saturn has only 4points. Hence the results will be more that of Moon. Rahu is placed in theNavamsa of Venus and hence Venus becomes Samdharmi and can indicatethe karakatwa which is the Natural Karaka for marriage. Placement of Rahuin the 2nd house – house of family also promotes marriage. Above all Moonbecomes the functional karaka for the 7th house.

Antar dasa Lord Mercury is Lord of D and hence must be eager to promotethe marriage. He is having the 2nd highest power in the worksheet. Venus whois having the highest power in the worksheet and also Lord of house E hasconjoined Mercury making Mercury as its Samdharmi. Hence the event isbound to happen during this Antar dasa.

The Antar dasa period is for 2 years 6 months and 18 days. Each part whendivided by 3 comes to 10 months and 6 days. Now to fix the exact part wehave to look into the aspects that the houses A, B or C or its lords receivefrom Jupiter and Saturn both in Rasi and Navamsa.



31

In Rasi Chart:Saturn is placed in 4th house and will be aspecting the 6th, 10th and the 1st houses. None of the three houses fall under A or B or C. The lords of thehouses A, B and C are respectively are Moon, Jupiter and Mars. Moon and Jupiter are placed along with Saturn itself and there is no aspect on Mars by

Saturn as Mars is placed in the 12th house. Jupiter is also placed in the 4th house and will be aspecting 8th, 11th and the 12th houses. 11th house is house C. The lords of houses A, B, C are Moon, Jupiterand Mars of which Jupiter is placed along with Moon and aspects Mars placedin the 12th house.

In the Navamsa Chart:We look to the aspect on the Lords of the houses A, B or C only by Saturn

and Jupiter. Saturn is aspecting Lord of house A Moon. Jupiter is notaspecting the Lords of A, B or C.

If only Jupiter is aspecting the houses or its Lord we can conclude that theevent will take place in the first part. Here Saturn is also aspecting one of thehouse Lords. Jupiter is also aspecting another house and its lord. Hence Iconcluded that the marriage should take part in the 2nd part of the Antar dasawhich will be from 20-02-2010 to 26-12-2010.

Now coming to the Probable date, the most powerful planets in the worksheetare Venus, Mercury, Sun and Moon. Mars and Jupiter are also in the line. Wehave already seen that Mercury as also Venus are both responsible forbringing about the marriage. So the probable date should have a combinationof Sun and Moon or combinations with them by the other two planets namelyMars and Jupiter. I omitted Mars as he is the 6th Lord and the native hasalready suffered due to the cancellation of earlier marriage. So let us have a

look at the Probable Date finder sheet and fix a suitable date falling betweenFeb. and Dec. and having planetary combinations between Venus, Mercury,Sun, Moon and Jupiter.

Mars and Mercury 03-Dec 15-Dec Not Possible

Jupiter and Ketu 16-Dec 28-Dec Not Possible

Jupiter and Venus 29-Dec 31-Dec Feeble Chance

I gave the dates marked as Possible to the family. I fixed the dates whereverthe combination of Venus or Mercury is there because these two are havingthe highest points in the worksheet. I gave the feeble chance wherever, Jupiteris found because Jupiter has got very less points compared to the other



33

planets. As said earlier the marriage is going to happen in the period ofVenus-Sun.

Out of curiosity to know why the first proposal did not materialise, I askedthe family details about the same. I got the date of marriage was scheduled to

be held on 23rd Nov. 2008. I got the chart of the girl also who refused to marry.If I start to analyse them, it will take more pages and hence I am giving onlythe summary. On the date of marriage, the boy was running Saturn Antaraand you will find that Saturn was having fewer points in the worksheet andhe is neither LoD nor LoE. Even though Saturn is placed in the 4th house inthe company of Jupiter and Moon, Saturn’s Ashtakavarga points are only 2and hence cannot promote the event. Saturn is not Samdharmi to the highpower planets viz. Mercury and Venus. In the girl’s chart I noticed that the

period when the marriage was proposed is that of a planet having low pointsin worksheet. Had the marriage been performed it would have ended indiscontent thanks to the blessings in the chart of the girl and the adamantnature of the girl which was explicit in her chart.

Analysis:

The marriage took place on 5th April, 1976.

Main Period Lord:

The Mahadasa running at that time was Mercury who is the Functionalkaraka for 2nd house indicating family.

Mercury having karakatwa for the 2n house indicates family and

loved ones and hence is responsible for giving a family and a loved



35

one i.e. wife. Mahadasa lord indicates karakatwa for 8t , 11t , 2n houses.

Sub Period Lord:

The Sub period running at the time of marriage was: Venus which is from10.11.1975 to 10.09.1978

For the 7t house the powerful Significators as per Worksheet are:Saturn (27 points), Jupiter (26 points), Mars (22 points), Moon (16points) and Venus (15 points) in descending order of power.

Saturn is having the highest points in WS. Venus, the sub periodlord is placed in the 4th from Saturn. Venus having got higherpoints than Sa becomes Samdharmi to Saturn. Further Venus andSaturn are also Natural Samdharmis.

So naturally Venus Sub has given the marriage. We can also findthat Venus has got more than 12 points in all the family relatedhouses viz. 2nd, 5th and 12th.


Then we have to narrow it down to the actual date viz. 5th April, 1976.

Having fixed the Sub period lord as Venus, the 2 planets withhigher power are Saturn and Jupiter.

From the PDF we find that Saturn and Jupiter period is from 18th Mar to 4th Apr. That is to say Sun is in the sign of Jupiter viz.Pisces and in the constellation of Saturn in transit.

Taking the permitted 13 day difference, it is justified that marriage

took place on 5th

April, 1976.

4. Conclusion:

Before winding up, I want to present the statistics of my analysis for thereaders to judge themselves the effectiveness of the System in fixing thetiming of marriage. This is of course true in respect of all other events also asexperimented by me.



1. Total No. of Charts taken up for Analysis: 1082. For timing an event the Maha dasa Lord does not play a role. Maha dasa

lord holds only karakatwa. So all Antaras falling within a Maha dasawill have that flavour. However if such a karaka house (for marriage itis the 2nd house) as well as the karaka lord (Lord of 2nd house or Natural

Karaka Venus) is badly afflicted, the event may be delayed or may nothappen. Since we are discussing an event that has already happened viz.marriage, I have not devoted much on this point.

3. Antar dasa Lord is either Lord of the 4th from Lagna or Lord of the 12th From Lagna and having more than 12 points in the worksheet: 42 chartsfitted in this criteria (38.9 %)

4. Antar dasa Lord is placed in house D or House E with more than 4points in Ashtakavarga: 9 charts (8.3 %)

5.

Antar dasa Lord is Samdharmi to Lord of house D or house E and ishaving more than 12 points in the worksheet: 45 charts (41.7 %)

6. The remaining 12 charts fell under one of the categories listed below:(11.1%)

a. Antar dasa Lord not connected to Lord of house D or Lord of houseE and not also Samdharmi to any of LoD or LoE but was havingmore than 12 points in worksheet.

b. Antar dasa was of 6th Lord and not connected with LoD or LoE.

c.

Antar dasa Lord had low points in worksheet but Samdharmi tohigh power planets – No connection with LoD or LoE.

d. Antar dasa Lord had low points but was either LoD or LoE.e. Antar dasa Lord had low points but Samdharmi to LoD or LoE.f. Antar dasa Lord Samdharmi to planet placed in 4th house or 12th

house with more than 4 points in Ashtakavarga.g. Marriage held in low power planet and there was no relation to

LoD or LoE nor Samdharmi to high power planets.
