D-30 strength- weakness shatchakras and blockages PVR

Today I will share my resolution of one of Parasara's divisional charts that has been an enigma to
Vedic astrologers. I solved the puzzle by borrowing a specific idea from Sri Yukteshwar Maharaj,
guru of Paramahamsa Yogananda, and applying it here.

Trimsamsa (D-30) chart shows sub-conscious weaknesses and internal enemies. In Trimsamsa,
each rasi is divided into 30 equal parts. Parasara taught that 5, 5, 8, 7 and 5 of those 30 parts will
be owned by Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, Mercury and Venus (respectively). He said counting is
reverse in even signs.

Traditionally, people place planets in Mars Trimsamsa in either Ar or Sc (signs owned by Mars),
planets in Venus Trimsamsa in either Ta or Li (signs owned by Venus), and so on. They place
planets in odd sign in odd sign in Trimsamsa also and planets in even sign in even sign in
Trimsamsa also.

But, what is the logic behind this order - Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, Mercury and Venus (or reverse)?
Is it correct to infer that signs owned by them in rasi chart are meant?

A Swamiji with a couple of ashramas in India, who is a disciple of a disciple of Sri Yukteshwar
Maharaj, visited my house near Boston and stayed with us one weekend. He taught me "Cosmic
Astrology" of Sri Yukteshwar Maharaj.

Sri Yukteshwar Maharaj mapped 6 chakras (excluding Sahasrara) from Aq to Cn and from Cp to
Le. Aq and Cp show Mooladhara chakra (earth - Mercury). Pi and Sg show Swadhishthana
chakra (water - Venus). Ar and Sc show Manipoora chakra (fire - Mars). Ta and Li show Anahata
chakra (air - Saturn). Ge and Vi show Visuddhi chakra (space - Jupiter). Cn and Le show Ajna
chakra and Sahasrara chakra is beyond rasis. While Cp->Le (day signs) show the right half of the
chakra, Aq->Cn (night signs) show the left half of the chakra!

He uses this with rasi chart and does not even see any divisional charts (like Navamsa, Dasamsa
etc). Based on where planets are, he concludes obstructions in that chakra and teaches
meditation on that chakra.

I forgot about this theory for many years.

At the end of post-homa meditation one day, an idea came in a flash that the above teaching is
the key to solving the Trimsamsa puzzle!
When I went back and looked at the list of Trimsamsa owners given by Parasara, I realized that
Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, Mercury and Venus stand for fire, air, space, earth and water elements, i.e.
Manipoora, Anahata, Visuddhi, Mooladhara and Swadhishthana chakras. Now, there is a nice
structure. We are starting with fire chakra, going subtler and subtler and finally coming to the 2
heavy chakras. In odd/male signs, we go from fire to water. In even/female signs, we go from
water to fire!

In terms of the above "Cosmic astrology" principle, this maps to Ar, Ta, Ge and then Aq, Pi (night
sign sequence for even signs) and Sc, Li, Vi and then Cp, Sg (day sign sequence for odd signs).

When I used this definition and made charts, it did explain a lot of things better. After
experimenting for a few months, I accepted this variation.

This chart shows obstructions in various chakras, which manifest as weaknesses and
problematic personality traits.

As an example, actor Bill Cosby has 6th, 8th and 12th lords and badhaka lord in Jupiter's
trimsamsas and that shows obstructions in Swadhishthana chakra (water elements), one of its
indications being weakness for sensual pleasures. Those planets also happen to occupy the 3rd
and 12th houses (initiative and pleasures in bed) in D-30 and that augments the indication.
Everyone knows what that did to him!

As another example, businessman Dhirubhai Ambani has badhaka lord with nodes in Saturn's
trimsamsa and that shows obstructions in Mooladhara chakra (earth element). Also, lords of 4th
and 9th houses (properties and fortune) are involved. It shows attachment to accumulating more
and more properties and prosperity.

As another example, Donald Trump has 6 planets in Mars Trimsamsa, showing obstructions in
Manipoora chakra (fire element). It shows "yuge" self-esteem problems.
:-)

His rants, totally out of context, in calls with foreign leaders on how his defeat in popular vote by
2.5 million votes means nothing and how he won "big" and how his inauguration crowds were
huge, among so many other things like his thin-skinned over-reaction to ANY perceived criticism,
are clear signs of these deep-seated self-esteem issues.

This calculation is not available in JHora. I included it in my private version and used it for a few
months. I will include it in a future public release. But, this is another divisional chart I have
finalized.

Now, I am off to enjoy a Telugu movie called "Nenu Local" (I am local). My interest in movies is
perhaps due to 6th lord in Jupiter trimsamsa (Swadhishthana chakra - water element). As the
planets are in day signs in trimsamsa (solar half of Swadhishthana chakra), there is a weakness
to *analyze* movies.
