Copy Editor: Anup Das, India.

Rabinder Nath Bhandari was born on 26th Dec

1950 and is a science graduate from Punjab University.
He has been studying astrology since 1978 in which 28
years. Being well versed in Urdu, Punjabi, Hindi &
English he has carried out indepth studies on the Lal
Kitab and has delved deeper into Present day
Palmistry along with Indian Samudrik Shastra apart
from doing vast amount of readings for people. He is
passionate about nature photography & often gets
carried away with the simplicity of the Grand designs
of the Gods, this simplicity reflects in his persona
making him an extremely humble and loving human
being. He is considered one of the foremost authorities
on Lal Kitab alive today.

T his section titled Saptarishis Astrology Remedies that was announced in the last issue will be a
regular section in each issue of Saptarishis Astrology. Albeit for this C S Patel Manuscript
Centric Issue, we have dropped all regular sections to accommodate the manuscripts
translations done by earnest scholars. This section will be presented as readers are eagerly waiting for
remedies from a long time. I have taken up a few cases of the numerous cases with an intent to highlight
specific atypical points in the chart / hand so that even scholars can benefit from this analysis. Some
readers have sent low quality hand pictures which are not readable and hence dropped from this section.
Readers are humbly requested to send high resolution pictures for clarity. If the case is unique then we
may also contact readers in different net forums to benefit the readers of SA. The remedies offered by
me will be based on Vedic Astrology and of Lal Kitab which actually is Elemental Remedy based on
Tatvas (Elements) of nature. There lies some doubt about its being a part of Indian Astrology, but in
reality its origin is from the Himalayan region of India. To appear in this section please mail us your
birth details along with digital copies of your both hand prints (without hand prints requests cannot be
attended to) to remedies@saptarishisastrology.com with a cc to admin@saptarishisastrology.com

Query 1: Case From Germany

German Male writes about his problem:

Dear Saptarishis Astrology & Mr. Rabinder Bhandari,

For more than 6 years I’m looking for a job in business. I have studied economics at a German University, but
cause of mentally problems in 2003 I had to stop with working for some months. Since that time I tried to find a
new job unsuccessfully. Could you tell me what is my real profession or what kind of talents I have, so I could start
a new profession maybe as a healer or whatever you say?

 Left Hand Of Native

In this case, I would specifically like to study a time period around 38th year of his age, i.e. just year 2003
(as exact date of start of mental problems is not quoted in the query) as quoted by him, during which he
suffered from mental problems and from that time till date (…looking for some job or business).

Which palm lines suggest about strength of various planets?

(With reference to lal kitab)

There are some points, which I have marked by encircling some area on the palm which speaks a
lot about the strength of some planets; these can be correlated with planets while reading the Horoscope
as well.

772
1) On the right hand palm, from the beginning of the heart line, there are many downward moving
branches, which run up to a length of an approximate age of 38 years, this confirms the position
of the planet Moon being very weak and during this period, the native will have to face some
emotional set backs, which appears to be a continuous process.
2) At the age of approximate 38 years of native, just below the Mount of Sun, a break appears in the
Heart Line. This is an indication of serious ill influence by the planet Moon, which disturbs the
native at an emotional plane, which at a later stage transfers its effects to the mental plane
(represented by the planet Mercury).
3) At the point encircled and marked No 3, there appears a break and a cross, from within the break
on the head line and the cross a fine line moves towards the Saturn Finger (Long Finger) which
indicates about the weakness of the planet Mercury and the line towards the Mount of Saturn
displays some ill influence at this time by the Planet Saturn.
4) After this break in Head Line, it’s further stream stands adversely affected and this line appears
to be followed by an axe line (kuthar rekha), which represents its effects just equal to an Island
formation (confusion in making decision due to duality of thoughts, while making any decision)
and confirms further influence of planet Mercury to be read as weak for future readings from
Horoscope.
5) In both hands, presence of a broken Girdle of Venus, which crosses the mounts of Saturn and
that of Sun, thus renders their influence weak. This line also cuts the Line of Sun and reduces its
strength. This also adds to emotional sensitiveness and Venus in such hands generally gives
negative effects.
6) Analysis of area concerning Life Line - it is also a weak line which tells about the weak
constitution and is not capable of giving a smooth life pattern.
7) Mount of Mars is depressed and is covered by a number of lines, which renders planet Mars as a
weak planet.
8) Fate line too is cut down by a cross line at the age of 38 years, after which it is not clear in your
palm shot, where as the line of Sun can be traced after this period.

Planets in horoscope:

1) Planet Sun is placed in the 12th house, which is associated with Saturn in Navamsha Chart and is at
23 degree. This placement of 2nd lord in the 12th house is a negative point, which will affect the
native’s financial position and add to unwanted expenses of his savings and earnings (because Venus
the 11th lord of the Chalit chart Is placed in the 2nd house in Leo)
2) Planet Moon is placed in 5th house and is in association with its permanent enemy Ketu, which
generally eclipses Moon and at the same time, it is also in its debilitation sign i.e. in Scorpio. When,
ascendant lord is very weak and is under malefic influence through aspect of 8th lord, Saturn renders
natives live a struggling life, make a note of this rule.
3) Mars in this chart appears to be a bit powerful due to its good position in Navamsha Chart, but it’s
placement in 3rd house (6th from 10th house) in basic horoscope renders it as a trouble creating
planet regarding career.
4) Mercury is also not a good planet for natives with Cancer ascendant, because of its inimical relations
with Moon. Mercury is also the lord of 3rd and 12th house. Mercury is also associated with Ketu in
Navamsha Chart.
5) Jupiter is placed in 11th house in association with Rahu, which turns Jupiter to a silent spectator
hence makes Jupiter ineffective.
6) Venus, which is supposed to be a beneficial planet for Cancer Ascendant, is also receiving ill
influences from Rahu, which is occupying it`s sign Taurus (because Rahu and Ketu give their
influence through that planet, in whose sign they get placed). In the Navamsha Chart, Venus is also
associated with Ketu.
7) Saturn is placed in the 8th house as 8th house lord, and aspects Moon the ascendant lord, which adds
negative influence by affecting Moon.
Relation of Rahu and Ketu’s stand is already explained in above quoted planetary positions.

773
Transit of planet Saturn during 2003:

On 01/01/2003, Saturn was at 0.30 degree in Gemini and on 31/12/2003, it was at 15.52 degree in the same
sign. This placement was in 12th sign from Ascendant, where Sun is placed which is also the 8th sign
from the Moon. All health related problems were caused due to the ill transit of Saturn the 8th lord,
transiting the planet Sun, which is placed in the 8th from the Ascendant lord Moon. It is said that when
Saturn transits 8th house from Moon, it creates trouble just equal to death (serious health trouble) or imprisonment
to the native.

Suggested Remedies:
1) Donate rice / milk on Monday; try to get blessings from seniors by paying respect to elderly
persons.
2) Wear a white pearl in right hand ring finger.
3) Donate green millet (SABUT MOONG) on Wednesday.
4) Make it a habit to clean your teeth with water first, as and when you rise early in morning.
5) Avoid losing temper and develop a balanced nature in behaviour with every one.
6) Reference Sun line – even after this period of trouble, it indicates that although you are hard
working, but due to the absence of a clear Fate line and island formation in the Head line you
feel confused in taking any decision in selecting a proper path in your life (regarding career). Try
to fix your mind in a single direction and you can become a good healer.
7) Avoid wearing black color clothes and refrain from alcoholic drinks.
8) Place common salt and green millet in two earthen pots separately in your bed room.
9) Good moral character is must for those, in whose hands; Sun line is cut / crossed by presence of
Girdle of Venus, if they want to derive full results from Sun Line.

Sh. Chiranjilal Purohit Ji has asked only about his Ketu Mahadasha period, but I will discuss
some other aspects of this horoscope, which will throw some light regarding to health related field.

In the birth chart Ketu is placed in the Ascendant in association with Venus and Jupiter. 1st house lord,
Sun is placed in the 12th house along with planet Mercury (lord of 2nd house), but in Nirayana Chalit
Chart, Ketu is placed in the 12th house along with Sun and Mercury. The second combination which is
of worth mentioning in this chart is that of planet Moon and Saturn, which are placed in the 6th house.
The current transit of Saturn is in Virgo. In the Ashtakavarga tables, Saturn had received ZERO
benefic aspect, thus the transit of Saturn in this sign will give malefic effects.

777
 According to LAL KITAB system of prediction, in the current year annual chart, all the four
house in centre of horoscope i.e. 1st, 4th, 7th and 10th house are lying vacant and Rahu is placed in 8th
house, for which some specific remedy of Rahu is required to be performed.

Lalkitab Chart Year 2009 - 2010

Overall, effects of all above combinations can be summarised in a few words:-

1) Effects of Ketu will be specific to health - weakness in lower limbs, starting from Lumbar region
and also general debility because of its malefic effects on planet Sun, the ascendant lord.
2) Ketu will also create some skin related diseases, i.e. some kind of skin allergy, eczema or boils.
3) Ailments produced during planet Ketu Mahadasha confuse medical attendants in diagnosis.
4) Above combinations will also affect Vision because, as it affects the 2nd lord, Mercury and both
luminaries in the Chalit Chart i.e. Sun and Moon are afflicted.

Suggested Remedies:
1) Worship Lord Ganesha.
2) Give bread to Dogs out of your food and serve mixed grains of seven types (SAPTDHANYA
OR SATNAJA) to birds.
3) Float dry coconut in running water on Saturday or donate mustard oil on this day.
4) Avoid wearing Black, Blue or clothes of mixed colours i.e. black and white combination, a
combination representing planet Ketu.
5) To strengthen planet Sun, avoid excess intake of common salt, avoid losing temper and take
some sweet after breakfast.
6) To protect your eyesight, which may also be affected due to combination of planet Moon and
Saturn, don’t take pure water for 43 days, while taking water, mix something, such as sugar,
common salt, lemon, milk or fruit juice etc.
7) To ward off ill influence of planet Rahu`s placement in 8th house in this years chart, it is
advisable (if you can perform): take eight kgms of wood charcoal, four kgms of metal Lead (cut
in eight pieces and float these items in flowing waters on any Saturday during day time and
make sure that the skies are clear and sunny.

 Query 3: Venkatesan Gopalachary, (Tirunelveli) India
Venkatesan Gopalachary writes about his problem:

Dear Sirs,
I read with interest the May 2009 issue of Saptharishi and amazed to find that Saptharishi can help its readers
solve their problems.

I understand that Mr. Bhandhari will be answering the questions raised by readers concerning solutions to their
problems.

I have a cancerous problem of often losing jobs in short periods of time. I will be grateful if Mr. Bhandhari can help
me solve the mystery.
I give below the required particulars. I am not able to send the photos of my palm prints.

(Hand Prints Not Provided For Readings)

Important Note (Why Hand Readings Are Must)

While doing Astrological calculations as per data provided, I noticed that three planets i.e. 1st. Saturn
2nd.Rahu and 3rd Ketu were transiting at a degree, in which these may occupy different houses while
using different Ayanamsa tables for calculations at that period, so two different charts as per
Chitrapaksha Ayanamsa and B.V.Raman Ayanamsa are given below, however in both cases, Niranayna
Bhav Chalit Charts are same.

In such cases, where planets present a doubtful picture, it is a must for an Astrologer to apply
corrections based on readings / confirmations from some major life events or to do rectifications
according to Samudrik Shastra i.e. by reading planets from palm lines or other aspects based on ILAM-
E-QIAFFA (as per LAL KITAB ).

Lagna Chart Lalkitab Chart Year 2009 - 2010

Bhav chalit kundli plays an important role while interpreting a horoscope (as Late, Pandit Kewal
Krishan Ji, RajJyotishi, from Patti Amritsar used to say that : BINA CHALIT CHAKKRA, NATTO
JANAM PATRA, which means that without Bhav Chalit Kundli, a Horoscope is of no value.
This rule will apply here in such cases, where planets at such degree, as in this case present a doubtful
placement in different houses.

Overall, effects of all above combinations can be summarised in few words…

1. Placement of Saturn in 3rd house, which is 6th from 10th house, and placement of Moon, which is 6th
lord from 10th house in 10th house plays a negative role in relation to the career. Further, in Chalit
Kundli, Mars is associated with Saturn, which is lord of 12th from Ascendant and that sign is also
occupied by a malefic planet Rahu.
2. Sun, which is the 4th house lord, is also weak in birth chart as well as in Chalit Chart.

783
3. Mercury is also placed in 6th house in birth chart.

The main Karaka Planets are weak as the major planets are in Baal or Mirit awastha (just below 5 degree
or beyond 25 degree), and Jupiter is also combust, so it can be clearly interpreted as a life full of struggles.

Suggested Remedies:
1. Pour milk on Monday in some well.
2. Daily feed some part of your food to crows.
3. Avoid use of black color and reduce excess intake of common salt.
4. Be balanced in behavior just like a scale.
5. Wear green emerald or onyx in short finger or ring finger of your right hand on Wednesday.
6. Worship Durga Maa, as you are currently passing a Mahadasa Period of Mercury.
7. Saturn is also in transit of 8th house from Moon, so make it a habit to float Dry Coconut on
Saturday in running waters.

Left hand shot:

From hand shots of David Suche, it can be very clearly noticed that in the Right Hand, a line
from beginning of life line moves towards the mount of Jupiter, this makes him very much ambitious
and adds leadership qualities by birth. Fate line tell a story of a self made person, who will rise to a high
level with it’s self working and will invest most of his earnings in landed and buildup properties. A faint
line, which I have highlighted with pen tool, starts from life line and moves up into mount of Saturn,
confirms above mentioned type of investments. But, it’s negative influence is that, in the long term, as
and when the time to enjoy the fruits of his fate comes, Saturn will withdraw all support and ruin the
native and bring him on footpath, especially when such properties are used as living as resting places
temporarily for visitors. (Negative influence of planet Saturn)
Life Line, which is forked towards its termination, points out towards a weak health and a life
full of financial crisis towards old age. (A fork is the sign Mars negative – MANGAL BAD).
Poor formation of Heart Line at various points (just from its very beginning and also at later age
periods) is an indication of weak Moon, which represents a very much disturbed emotional life.

In his Left Hand, Fate line is fragmented at various levels, which shows a much variable life
style. Life Line is absent towards termination, which is treated as a bad sign in any hand. The Head
Line also moves upward to join the Heart Line towards its termination. This is an indication of
emotional shock, after which the brain force loses its co-ordination of thoughts and ideas which are to be
implemented in future plans.

A strange picture of life is presented in both palms, which tells that FORTUNE TURNS LIKE A
WHEEL OR JUST LIKE A SWING, WHICH MOVES UP DOWN OR CAN BE COMPARED
WITH RAINBOW COLORS. This means that at one point of time there will be ocean full of riches
and at the other there will be no shine like sands of poverty.

Similarly, weak status of above mentioned three planets i.e. Saturn, Mars and Moon is visible
and total spoiling of game of life appears to have occurred during the negative transit of planet Saturn
from planet Moon and Vimshottari Mahadasha of planet Saturn.

Suggested Remedies:
1. Float dry coconut in running waters on Saturday.
2. Wear a white pearl of approximate weight five carats.
3. Give sweet bread to poor.
4. Avoid wearing black clothes.
5. Try to keep your mind cool and calm.

With best wishes and blessing: Do Good – Get Good
