Basic considerations:
Given the brief of Astrology and its background, following are the basic principles, which
should be considered while analysing the Chart:
1. Lagna and Lord of Lagna
2. Benefics, Melefics, Marakas for Each Ascendant
3. Position, Aspect, Conjunction (PAC principle)
4. Lords of Different Bhavas in different Bhavas (Bhava Chakra)
5. Panchamaitri (Five fold Relationships)
6. Karakas1 and Karakatwas
7. Yogas and Yogakarakas
8. Badhakadhipathi
9. Bhagyadhipathi
10. Divisional Charts
11. Dasa and Antar Dasa, etc.
12. Transits (with the help of Murty Nirayana principles/Ashtakavarga system, etc.)
The first ten principles are for analysing the chart thoroughly and find out what is in store for
the native and what would be the path to follow; and the last two are useful for timing of the
events and finding favourable or unfavourable periods of the native.
While judging the horoscope, as has been mentioned, all the basic principles must be
considered and before coming to conclusion, integrate all those principles so that reasonable
prediction can be provided to the client.

Notes:
a) If the fifth house has beneficial associations or aspects, there will be children
b) Lord of Lagna in the fifth and fifth lord is strong, or exchange of houses bet 1st and 5th
lords, favours birth of children.
c) If Jupiter, as lord of the fifth, is strong and aspected by lord of Lagna, one gets many
issues.
d) Lord of the 2nd possessed of strength, in the fifth, aspected by Jupiter, indicates birth of
children.
e) Children will die early if the lord of the 5th occupies 3, 6 and 12 and there is no benefic
aspect; when the lord of the fifth is hemmed in bet malefic
f) If the 5th house falls in Gemini, Virgo, Capricorn or Aquarius and has the association of
Saturn or Mandi, one will have an adopted son.
g) Delay: Sat/Ra associated with 5H &/or 5th lord.
h) Denial: 5th lord in Dusthana + Sat/Ra connected with 5H & 5th lord + Jup not supportive
i) Happiness from children: Jup or 5th lord in good positions like ken/Tri. Mars/Sat/Ra
influences on 5H/L give chances of unhappiness on account of children.
Gemini is sign of twins, so the lord Gemini Mercury plays the important role in the birth of
twins. Following are some of the rules for birth of twins:-
1. If lord 5th house is well placed in Gemini and receives aspect from Mercury may
give birth of twins
2. If Sun & Jupiter occupies Gemini and aspected by Mercury then birth of male
twins can be predicted.
3. If Venus & Mars occupies Pisces or Virgo and aspected by Mercury then birth of
two female child can be predicted.
4. If Lagna or Moon sign is even sign and aspected by Venus then one male and one
female birth can be predicted
5. Most importantly if the couples have combination for twin child in the horoscope
and if Jupiter transit to dual sign then birth of twins can be predicted during that
Jupiter transit.
Saravali - |Chapter 8:
Should Lagna and Moon be in even Rasis and be aspected by a strong planet, then there are
twins – (one male and one female). Similar results follow if the Moon and Venus are in even
Rasis or common signs and be strong.
There was specific mention of Birth of Eunuch and also Triplets in Saravali
Co-Borns:
1. Houses:
1.1. 3H : younger co-borns
1.2. 11H: Elder siblings
2. Planets:
1.3. Mars: younger co-borns.
1.4. Jupiter: Elder co-borns
1.5.
3. D3- drekkana chart.
Notes:
a) Mars alone in 3rd house or Jupiter alone in 11th house no support from younger and
elder brother respectively.
b) If Mars and Ven together in 3rd house better relations with younger sister than brother.
If Jup and Ven together in 11th house better relations with elder sister than brother.
c) Relationship between 3rd house/lord and 11th house/lord with Lagna Lord must be atleast
FRIENDS for friendly relationship between co-borns.
Foreign Travel
1. Houses:
H : short travels
1.1. 3
1.2. 9 H, 12H : long travels and foreign travel
2. Signs:
2.1. Movable, watery, airy signs are supportive for journeys
Notes:
a) If 4th and 9th houses/lords are related,chances of going to foreign.
b) 9th lord in 12th also gives foreign travel
c) 12th lord should be under good influences, like position is good, aspect of benefics,
movable or watery sign, then chances of going to foreign become stronger. If it is
retrograde or associated with malefics,the native may not go to foreign.
d) Similarly 12H should be watery or movable sign to facilitate foreign travel.
e) 9H to be watery sign, or atleast movable sign
f) If 9th lord in 7th chances of native going to foreign.
g) If Lagna is fixed or dual which is towards fixed degrees, chances of going abroad
reduced.
h) If 4th house/lord is strong in well PAC, then the native will come back from abroad.
i) Malefics support stay in foreign lands( Ra - mlecchha, Sat). So if they influence 9H or
lord, the native will continue to stay in foreign land as permanent.
