Precautions
1. Astrologers who miss such
combinations are apt to quote from the translations
of classics blindly and land into wrong alleys of
predictions. The classics throw light on the meaning
of planetary combinations which must not be fitted
into strait-laced and snap-shot astrological readings.
2. But then, is the other side
also. True, some of these combinations are also evil
as they cause sicknesses and accidents.
3. The important principle to
remember is that planets give multiple effects, they
lift, they cause a fall, they give fortunes and they
throw your into deepest moods of despair. What a planet
does is that is gives happiness and grief rise and
fall and laughter and tears, turn by turn.
It is here that the most important
element of astrological prediction comes into play
through a very close study of:
1. The strength of planets, which
a computer cast horoscope gives.
2. What as astrologer must do
always is to see the condition of these planets in
the navamsha (the one ninth division of a horoscope),
which again a computer cast horoscope gives.
3. Then the dashas, major and
sub-periods should be seen.
4. Finally, the transits should
be examined, if possible an the sarvastaka varga,
which is an extraordinary technique of quantifying
the strength of transiting planets.
It is for this reason that after
going through these lessons , advanced books with
their techniques should be learnt properly.
