RULING PLANETS AND KRISHNAMURTI PADDHATIBy S.Venkataraman

pblsvraman@gmail.comProf K.S. Krishnamurti devised the ruling planets taking the cue from the works of Brihat Jataka of Varaha Mihira and also after a thorough study of PNE charts. He also felt that increasing the Ruling Planets from the 5 will also be difficult to eliminate when fixing the events.

We shall now study a few examples where the ruling planets helped to predict the actual date when the event is fructified.Example No: 1

A parcel was sent by a friend of mine to USA and a question arose in the mind of my friend as to when the parcel will reach the destination.

A time chart was drawn by my friend with the following details:Date of Judgment: 1st Feb 2015; Time of Judgment: 13:11:02 hrs; Place of Judgment: Muscat, Oman and forwarded the details to me for further analysis.We shall not discuss the time chart, but to the ruling planets as appearing on the day and time of judgment.

Analysis of Ruling Planets on 1st Feb 2015

1. Rahu was in Hastham constellation and hence Mercury Sign and Moon star.

2. Mars aspects Rahu by 8th aspect. Rahu will also signify Mars

3. By applying rule 1 the final RP will be Sun, Rahu, Venus only. At the time of judgment, one will be sure of delivery within a few days and Moon has to be moved to the correct position. As Sun, Venus, and Rahu, are the final RPs the moon should transit either Leo or Libra for the event to fructify. On the day of Judgment Moon is in Gemini and we have to move to Leo or Libra. I am giving more importance to Rahu as nodes are stronger and hence the Leo sign is also ignored (because no constellation of Rahu in Leo sign) and only Libra sign is taken in to account. Moon will transit in Libra-Rahu Star on 11th February 2015. The day is Tuesday Mars is not in the ruling Planet. Hence we should ignore this date. Then we have to wait for one month for the moon to reach Libra-Rahu Star. On March 10, 2015 Moon transits in Libra Swathi constellation (Rahu) and the day is Monday ruled by Moon. Moon is one of ruling planets.

Hence the delivery will be made positively on 10th March 2015Conclusion: The parcel was delivered on 10th March 2015.Example No: 2

The Second example is also of the parcel. Here the parcel was sent to my friend at Port Blair on 26 March 2015 from Mumbai. Till 15th April 2015, the parcel did not reach the addressee i.e. my friend. He requested me to work out the date of delivery of the parcel astrologically as he Knew that I am following KP System.Date of Judgment: 15th April 2015

Time of Judgment: 22:11 hrs

Place of Judgment: Port Blair, Andaman & Nicobar Islands, India

DAY LORD MERCURY

MOON SIGN LORDSATURN

MOON STAR LORDRAHU

ASCENDANT SIGN LORDJUPITER

ASCENDANT STAR LORDKETU

On the Day of Judgment,

1. Rahu is in Mercury Sign, Moon Star

2. Ketu is in Jupiter Sign, Saturn Star

3. Rahu and Ketu will replace Mercury and Jupiter respectively

The final Ruling Planets are Rahu, Ketu, Saturn,

The day lord at the time of delivery could be Wednesday, Thursday, or Saturday

The constellation for which Rahu is the lord falls in Gemini, Libra or Aquarius

The constellation for which Ketu is the lord falls in Aries, Leo and Sagittarius

The Libra, Aries and Leo signs are ignored because the sign lords have not figured in the ruling planets. Now Moon has to be moved to the signs listed above and the day lord should also be checked with the ruling planets. On the day of judgment, Moon is in aquarius and in Rahu star. So we move to the next possible date. On 23rd April 2015 the parcel could be delivered or my friend will take delivery of the parcel that day.My friend confirmed the delivery of the parcel on 23rd April 2015 before departing to Kerala the next day.

Example No: 3This was a case where there was a delay in the credit of salary amount in to the bank account of my friend. As he is also following KP system, he himself worked out the day when he will obtain the credit in to his bank account. When he failed to receive the amount as per his findings, he contacted me for further advice.Date of Judgment: 20th November 2014

Time of Judgment: 19:11:28 HRS

ASCENDANT SIGN LORDMARS

ASCENDANT STAR LORDSUN

Rahu is in Mars Star Mercury signKetu is in Jupiter sign, Mercury star

Rahu aspects Saturn, Venus, sun in Scorpio and Jupiter in Cancer ie. 3,11 aspects. Rahu will deliver results of Saturn, Venus, Sun and Jupiter. As Rahu does not have any signs, the event can be fructified on Friday, Saturn, Thursday, or Sunday. Generally Sunday is a holiday Sunday can be ignored. That leaves us with Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The lord of Friday is Venus and Venus is in the sub of sun (negating house 5) the native cannot receive salary on Friday. As already three weeks passed, there will not be any further delay. So I concentrated on Saturday 22nd November 2014. As I was confident of receiving salary on 22nd November 2014, I started moving the lagna to coincide with the ruling planets and at the same time Moon will transit Scorpio(Mars sign) and Anuradha star(Saturn owner). When we are moving lagna to the desired place, the bank account of the native will be credited with the salary amount. The lagna reaches Ashwini Star (Ketu is the ruler of the star) at 16:00 hrs, the native will get his salary amount credited to his bank account. Actually the native received an SMS message from the bank that the salary is credited to his account at 16:01:22 hrs.
