How to Analyze Kaalsarpa Yoga Contrary to popular belief the effects of this Yoga are not always malefic. ?ust ha ing one of the #$ combinations described abo e does not mean that the nati e will in ariably go through the results described abo e. 2he whole chart needs to be analy<ed in order to come to a conclusion. In my e"perience following factors should be considered. @ne must chec% the o erall strength of the chart by loo%ing at 'agna, 'agna lord, (oon and ;un. If the o erall chart is strong this will not let the %aalsarpa yoga ha e any ma0or negati e influence. ! wea% chart on the other hand will not be able to protect the nati e. ,epending on the RahuAKetu position, determine which side of the a"is has all planets. !ll the houses of the side which is totally empty will feel the effects of this yoga. 2he houses in which RahuAKetu fall will particularly determine the area of life which will be impacted negati ely.

&owe er if the lord of the houses falling on the empty side of the RahuAKetu are ery well placed 8E"alted, in Briend's house, in own house, aspecting their own house9. 2hen those houses will not suffer that much and negati e effect will be reduced to the factors attributed to those houses. Vasu%i, .adam, (ahapadam, ;han%achood and Vishdhar Kaalsarpa generally do not gi e bad results if the o erall chart is in a really bad shape. 2his is because of their association with )rd, /th and ##th house in which RahuAKetu are considered fa orable. If in ,*5 chart RahuAKetu fall in )rd, /th or ##th house, then the effects are reduced. @ne must chec% the constellations of RahuAKetu as well. If they fall in benefic constellations 8if the lords are natural benefic planets9 then they become more unfa orable. Its impact will be more prominent during dasha and antardasha periods of Rahu and Ketu. 2his is ery important point. If this yoga is ery strong in one's chart, but the dasha does not operate till ery late in his life, then it really does not effect the nati e that much. It causes se ere hardships when related with ;un and ;aturn or the lords of the houses occupied by ;un or ;aturn. Remedies Remedy for %aalsarpa yoga is a contro ersial sub0ect. &owe er in my humble e"perience the following are %nown to ha e brought relief. #. Recite 'ord ;hi a's mantra "Om Namah Shivay" #63 times daily. $. Recite Mahamritunjaya mantra daily. E erytime a bad thought comes to your mind or you see things going in the wrong direction, recite this mantra ).

Manglik Dosha/ Kuja Dosha

In which so e er house the planet mars is present, it will affect it and because of Manglik dosha there e"ists the problems in marriage. !ccording to edic astrology two mangli% persons should not marry as their married life will end up in di orce without any specific reason. 4ut there e"ists certain mangli% dosha remedies and mangli% dosha cancellation that can stop the ill effects of this %u0a dosha so must be followed if you belie e in astrology and its effects.

Pitra Dosha
;ometimes we find that we are constantly suffering inspite of no apparent fault of ours. 2his is generally ery baffling that although we are doing all the good deeds, still, we or our family members are always undergoing one or the other type of problems. !strology has a perfect e"planation to this problem. It is due to the fact that the soul of our ancestors E departed forefathers does not get peace 8shanti9. If %nowingly or un%nowingly our ancestors ha e done some mista%es, they are reflected in our &oroscope as .itra ,osh or .itra Rina and being their off springs we are destined to suffer from their bad effects. 4ecause of the malefic effect of the inflicted planets, benefic planets also stop gi ing fa orable results. In the vedic astrolog Rahu is considered the main cause of these doshas. Pitra Dosha is due to an o! the !ollo"ing main reason# and there ma $e others% 8#9 4ad deeds 8 bad %arma 9 of our ancestors in earlier life, %nowingly or un%nowingly, are embarrassing their souls, 8$9 4ad deeds 8 bad %arma 9 of children, %nowingly or un%nowingly, are embarrassing the soul of ancestors, 8)9 'ac% of fulfillments of parental desires of our ancestors, 8+9 ! sudden and unnatural death of any relati e ancestors in early age, 8-9 If someone fails to remember and honor the ancestors properly, 8/9 If certain wishes are remained attached with the soul of the ancestors, etc.

Dasaratha Shani Stotra

Saturn enters the star constellation of Rohini once in every '9 years. This is one of the most dreaded transits of the !ings and his !ingdom. The scriptures say 5Kings -ill die and !ingdomes -ill fall -hen Shani enters Rohini7. 1ast time it entered Rohini on %%nd &ay %99#. 6n the night of #st 3une %99# the entire Royal family of >epal -as -iped out.

It is said that during the reign of !ing $asaratha -hen Shani -as about to enter Rohini >a!shatra, !ing $asaratha -orshipped Shani and pleased -ith his prayers Saturn did not enter Rohini during the reign of !ing $asharatha. 2ence the $asaratha Shani stotras are considered an e0cellent remedy for Saturn related troubles.

Lunar Phases & the Nitya Devis

The -orship of the >itya $evis connected -ith the phases of the moon is an important aspect of Tantra! -orship. The Sun rules our soul and the &oon rules our mind. These t-o planets cause the lunar phases. According to Rishi Parashara, the Avatara of 1ord Rama is from the Sun and that of Krishna is from the &oon. Indian mythology accords the status of a $evata to Sun and &oon in the celestial court of 1ord Indra. The moon is one of the most important planets in astrology. Apart from .udging a person from the 1agna, edic astrology studies the planetary positions from the moon also. >e- &oon to Full &oon and bac!, the changing phases of the &oon rules the mind and our emotions. Aut &oon plays a lot deeper role in our lives than that. According to the Indian sashtras li!e 1alitopa!hyanam, Tantrara.atantra, $a!shinamurti Samhita, asistha Samhita, Kama!ala ilasam and Ahairava (amalamF the follo-ing is the spiritual and cosmic significance of the phases of the moon. The &oon has #8 !alas, or phases. 6ut of these #* are visible to us and the #8th is beyond our visibility. The #8 !alas are" #.Amrita, %.&anada, '.Poosha, ).Tusthi, *.Pusthi,

8.Rati, ;.$hruti, <.Sasichini, C.:handri!a, #9.Kanta, ##.3yostna, #%.Shree, #'.Preeti, #).Angada, #*.Poorna and #8.Poornamruta. These #8 !alas are ruled by the #8 >itya $evis. They are called Shodasa >ityas. They are" #.&aha Tripura Sundari, %.Kames-ari, '.Ahagamalini, ).>itya!linna, *.Aherunda, 8. anhivasini, ;.&aha a.res-ari, <.Shivadooti ?Roudri@, C.T-arita, #9.Kulasundari, ##.>itya, #%.>eelapata!a, #'. i.aya, #).Sarvamangala, #*.3-alamalini and #8.:hidroopa ?:hitra@. 6ut of these, the first one, &aha Tripura Sundari is the $evi Para Sha!ti herself, and hence the !ala ruled by her is not visible to the normal mortals. 2ence -e see only the other #* !alas or phases ruled by the other nityas. In the Sri :ha!ra these #* nityas are present in the innermost circle, and the $evi is in the central bundu. These #* >ityas rule the famous #* letters $evi mantra !no-n as Panchadasa!shari &antra" Ka = Aie 1a 2reem 2a Sa Ka 2a 1a 2reem Sa Ka 1a 2reem These #* >ityas in the form of the #* Tithis ?Phases@ have t-o aspects each E Pra!ashamsa, -hich rules the day portion of the Tithi, and imarshamsa, -hich rules

the night part of the Tithi. At night they collect the divine nectar and during the day they release it. 6n Poornima or full moon day all the #* >ityas are in the moon and the moon is shining brightly. 6n the #st Thithi after the Poornima, i.e., Pratipada, one >itya leaves the moon and goes to the sun and the moon is reduced slightly in siGe. 6n the ne0t $-iteeya Tithi another >itya leaves the moon and goes to the sun and the moon is further reduced in siGe. This -ay they leave one by one till the moon becomes totally dar! on the #*th day, -hich is called Amavasya or the ne- moon day. This is !no-n as Krishna Pa!sha or the -aning phase. After Amavasya they return one by one on each Tithi and the moon starts shining again till its full on the Poornima -hen the last >itya returns to it. This is called Shu!la Pa!sha. Kames-ari to :hitra are the >ityas ruling the Krishna Pa!sha Tithis from Pratipada to Amavasya. In Shu!la Pa!sha the order of the >ityas is reversed, i.e., :hitra to Kames-ari. The >itya of the Asthami or <th Tithi, T-arita, is common and constant to both the Pa!shas. 2ence she adorns the cro-n of $evi. The inner triangle of Sri :ha!ra is !no-n as the Sarva Siddhiprada :ha!ra and the >ityas are ne0t only to Tripura Sundari in importance. For your information, Kames-ari is +oddess Parvati, a.res-ari is &aha 1a!shmi and Ahagamalini is +oddess Saras-ati HH 6ne Krishna Pa!sha and one Shu!la Pa!sha form a '9Dday lunar month. #% such months form a '89Dday lunar year. &ultiplied by % ?the day and night aspects of the >ityas,Tithis@ -e have ;%9 aspects of the >itya $evis in a year. This -ay, they rule the day, the night, the days, months, seasons and the years. Furthermore, each aspect of a >itya rules #99 >adis in our body. This -ay they rule the ;%999 >adies in our body, -ith ever changing moods and physical results in human lives. The >ityas or =ternities of 1alita represent the fifteen lunar days or tithis of the -a0ing &oon. =ach has her o-n yantra, mantra, tantra and prayogas or ritual applications. The full circle of the >ityas also represents the %#,899 breaths a human being ta!es in a full day and night. As such, the >ityas are the Kalacha!ra, or /heel of Time. The #* >ityas are modifications of 1alita -ith her three gunas and her five elements of aether, air, fire, -ater and earth. As the moon remains itself, though appearing differently according to phase, so too does 1alita. =ach >itya has her o-n vidya ?that is mantra@, yantra and group of energies ?Sha!tis@.

The #* lunar tithis, are to be regarded as identical -ith the fifteen >ityas ?Kameshvari to :itra@. The si0teenth Kala called Sada!hya should be vie-ed as one -ith 1alita or the Supreme $eity 2erself. In other -ords, one has to feel that -hat appears in Kalaca!ra is nothing but an e0pression of -hat e0ists eternally as >ityas in the supreme Sri :a!ra itself. The tithiDca!ra or the -heel of time is constantly revolving and the Sri :a!ra is -ithin it and not -ithout. It should also be remembered that from the standpoint of an esoteric yogin the tithis are in the last analysis to be identified -ith the %#899 shvasas ?breaths@ supposed to be the average number of breaths per day of a normal human being.7 2ence 1alita or Tripurasundari is the #8th day or full moon, -ith her #* digits. =ach of the >ityas has a certain number of arms, the totality of arms ?I rays@ of the -hole circle being #9<. Aecause any unit of time is ta!en as a microcosm or parallel of any other valid unit, each of the fifteen >ityas thus has #,))9 breaths. This identity bet-een space, time, Tripurasundari and the individual is elaborated at great length in the Tantrara.a Tantra. The >ityas are the vo-els of the Sans!rit alphabet and are identical -ith both time and space. For e0ample, if the number of tattvas or consonants ?'8@ are multiplied by the #8 >ityas the number of letters is *;8. The multiples of this number provide the number of years in the different (ugas. So the circle of the matri!as and the >ityas is identical -ith the sidereal Godiac as -ell as mantra. The ancient scriptures >itya Shodasarnava Tantram, Srividya ilasam, ama!es-ara Tantram, Tantrara.a Tantra and &antra Ratna!aram have specified that the #* >ityas must be -orshiped in the Sricha!ra central triangle, anticloc!-ise, and the #8th >itya, &aha Tripura Sundari must be -orshiped in the Aindu. The follo-ing diagram ma!es it clear.
