Rahu, unlike other planets, has not been assigned any sign of its own. It acts as the
agent of the sign it is in. So Rabu is the representative of Kuja.
t Ketu, like Rabu, has no sign of its own. Ketu and Rabu are only shadowy planets
(chaja grahas) and give the results of the planets in whose sign they are placed.
Also those planets with which they are conjoined/aspected. Ketu is thus Sukra's
agent being in Sukra's iign, and also of Sani who aspects it by the 3rd aspect.'and
futtber of Guru who aspects it by the Sth aspect.

danger, disease and demise and moreover the
death causing planet Saturn is aspecting
Mercury and Jupiter from the 7th house.
fSuch Saturn is in the constellation of sun who
is in the 2nd house as lord 11th. The lord of
2nd and 7th houses, Mars is aspecting (8th

that he will give only Wednesday as moon was

The fruitful significators for transfer are
Rahu-Ketu-Saturn-Mars and Sun. Whenever
these planets jointly operate, transfer will
take place, especially when transits agree.
Future Prospect In Service:
During his life time, he will run the
major periods of Rahu, Jupiter and Saturn
in full and partially that of Mercury. Jupiter
will be the most promising of these. He will
get promotion during the following periods
as arrived at from the significators of houses
2610II and taking the fruitful signi-
ficators only.
Rahu Dasa^ Moon Bhukti(from-
24121975 to 2661977); Jupiter Dasa

to 2481983); Jupiter Dasa-Moou Bhukti
(fiom 12111989 to 1231991J.
These are the three promotions promised
to the native. As all the planets are connected
with houses 2-6-10-11, the native will have
self-earned wealth and will enjoy the fruits of
the material world to his utmost satisfication.
Span Of Life;
In "Krishnamurti Padhdhati", we have
to consider the maraka houses along with
the Badhaka. Scorpio fVrischikaJ rises at
birth. It is a fixed sign and hence the 9th
house is Badhaka. The 2nd and 7th are
maraka houses for all lagnas. Mercury and
Venus in 2nd; Jupiter is 2nd lord in 7th;
7th lord is Venus; Rahu in 9th; and Moon
is-9th lord. Rahu in Venus Scar and Ketu
in Juqiter Star; Mercury, Venus and Jupiter
in the Star of Moon;
Mercury and Ketu are the strongest to
offer death. So Mercury Dasa-Ketu Bhukti-
Ketu Antara will be evil for longevity of
the native, when Sun will transit Jupiter sign-

W onday. Moon on this date transits 9th
house, a Badhaka Sthana, in Aslesha Star
ruled by Mercury, so transit of luminaries

We are now ready to convert the LMT of birth in all the examples to their equivalent
Sidereal Time.
If the reader turns through every page containing the planetary positions he will Gnd in the
third column a beading "Sidereal Time" and thereunder figures for every day, expressed in
Hours, Minuies and 'Seconds. These denote the acceleration of sidereal lime over solar lime
for every day These figures are tabulated for 5-30 A.M. (LMT) at 82-30' East Long. At the
.same Local Mean Time (i. e. 5-30 A M.) at any other meridian, the Sidereal Time is different,
lesser to the east, and greater to the west.
At every place on Earth, at midday, the Sun will be exactly overhead, when it is noon at
that place. At another meridian it is not noonit may be past noon or before noon. Thus,
local time differs, and when it is 5-30 A.M. (LMT) at long. 15 East, it is 10 A.M. (LMT) at
.82.30' E, (4 hrs 30 mts past 5-30 A.M. (LMT) at 82-30' E J, the local mean time being reckoned
with reference to the meridian of the place. Sidereal Time accelerates over solar time every
minute, 4 minuies approximately (210 seconds; in a day of 24 hours or 10 seconds per hour or
1 second for every six minutes of solar lime. In another way. Sidereal Time increases for every
rotation of tha earth-240 seconds for 360 or 2/3rd second for every degree of longitude.
Ifcorrcction for acceleration of sidereal time for longitudinal difference east or west of
82-30' Long (or acceleration of sidereal time for time equivalent of longitudinal difference) is
applied (Added if west of 82-30'. and subtracted if east of S2-30'E.) to the Sidereal Time

To this, add the interval elapsed up to Local Mean Time of birth fnot standard time of birthL
and another correction for acceleration of sidereal time during the interval, and the sum obtained,
is the sidereal time at birth.
To make the task Of the reader easier, the amount of correction to be applied for
longitudinal difference between two places, or time difference between two places, has been
tabulated and furnished in Table VI to which always refer.
CONVERSION OF LMT TO SIDEREAL TIME :

Bombay, 72 -54' East, is west of the (lst) Meridian of 820-30, E.,
the exact longitudinal difference being 90-36'. Therefore,
Add<> acceleration of sidereal time for longitudinal difference of

Example II (Birth in Osaka. Japan):
LMT of birth = 3-44-48 A.M. on 2181971. 05-30 A.M. (LMT) of
2081971 is previous to birth. Osaka, Japan, 135 -27' E. Long., is east
of the meridian 82o-30' E., the exact longitudinal difference being 520-57'
<say 53^9 and time equivalent of longitude being 3 hours 31 minutes
48 seconds (local time difference between Osaka and the meridian of

Jlote:- If the Sidereal Time obtained is more than 24 hours, always subtract 24 hours from it, as
after reaching 24 his sidereal time commences again from 0 hour).
Example 111: Birth at Adelaide, Australia:
Following the method enumerated for examples II and III, the Sidereal Time of birth in
this case is 1 hour, 51 minutes, 19 seconds, expressed as 15119.
Example IV: Birth at Tanzania, Africa:
Similarly working, we arrive at the Sidereal Time of birth in this case as 19 Hours,
12 Minutes, 59 Seconds.
Example V: Birth at Manchester, England:
On the basis of the formula outlined before, the Sidereal Time of birth here come to
H. 162800 Sees.
Example VI: Birth at Qubec, Canada:
Applying the same method, the Sidereal Time of birth in this example is ascertained to be
11 Hhours, 36 Minutes and 53 Seconds,
Another way is to relate the Sidereal Time contained in this Ephemeris for every day at
5-30 A.M. ClmtJ at 82o-30' E, Long, to the Standard Meridian of the country or zene of birth,
or to 0 Long. Greenwich Meridian. For this purpose, the constant time difference between the
Standard Time Meridian of the country or zone and the 1. S. T. Meridian of SZMO','readily
available in Table XV, should be subtracted, if the Standard Meridian is west of the 1. S. T.
Meridian, from tEeSidbfCal Time-found-for-every dayJn.fhis.Ephemeris. If the Standard Meridian
of the country is east of the I. S. T. Meridian, then the time difference^sboaT3_be added-
figure under "Sidereal Time'* in this Ephemeris. The sidereal time obtained after this addition
or subtraction, as the case may be, is the sidereal time in the country/zone at the equivalent
Standard Time in that country when it is 5-30 A.M. (istJ. In Table XV, the Standard Time in
each country/zone corresponding to 5-30 A.M. ftsx) has also been given, which lightens our task.
For example, if the time difference of 5^ hours between the Greenwich Meridian and 1ST Meridian
is .su/urac/ed fas Greenwich is west of ist Meridian) from the sidereal time tabulated in this
Ephemeris, the result will refer to the sidereal time at 0 Long, at 0 hour (5-30 A.M. 1ST minus
5^ hours). As a day extends from 0 hour to 11-59 P.M., the interval of time from the previous
0 hour is easy to calculate. This will be an easier method for a beginrer.
HOW TO CALCULATE HOUSES?
Having ascertained the Sidereal Time of birth, we may now enter upon the calculation of
the cusps of the various houses fox the Sidereal Time of birth of our example I. fCusp is the point
of commencement of a house).
We must presently turn to a reliable Table of Houses for Northern Latitudes, as the
.example birth was at Bombay in the northern hiraisphere. Mahabala's Universal Table op
Houses for all latiiudes South or North and from 0 Lat. to 60 Lat giving the longitudes of all
the houses calculated to the nearest minute, unlike the available Tables which only give them to
the nearest degree, will shortly be published, and till then Raphael's Table of Houses for Northern
Latitudes may be relied on. Raphael's Tables state the Sayana longitudes of the cusps of six
houses, the longitudes of 10 (Meridian) and Asc. (1st) accurately and the rest to the nearest
degree only.
The Sidereal Time of birth of our example I, lat. l80-55' North, was arrived at to be
21 Hours 28 Minutes 23 Seconds. Turn to the page for lat. 19 North, nearest to Bombay's.
Look for the Sidereal Time of birth or the two Sidereal Times nearest to it in the left hand column
marked "Sidereal Time". They arc 21-25-44 and 21-29-40. Prepare a table as follows;

B. Does the Moon confirm (he query?
Moon is otherwise called 'Mathi' or
the mind. Its position at query determines
what passes in the mind of querent. Moon
is lord of 6 posited in lagna bhava in the
constellation of Jupiter and sub of Ketu.
Jupiier, the constellation lord, is lord of
2 and LI placed exactly on the cusps of
the Ilth houses; Kethu is in the 6th house
and is not conjoined with any other planet.
A node is ever stronger than the planet
with Which it is conjoined, even if such
a planet is in its exalted. When not so
conjoined, a node acts as the lord of the
sign's agent. In other words, Ketu takes
the shape of the container in which it is
in, and so represents Moon.
In Mundane Astrology, the Ilth house
"refers to legislative ^assemblies in the States
or-theirequivalentand-bears_relation^to
legislation, governmental policies, planning;
etc. Among the planets, Jupiter indicates
the legislative assembly and forming of
legislation. It is connected with the leeal,
finance, educational and political departments.
At the query,, Jupiter occupies the 11th
house as lord of houses 2 and 11. Ketu,
as mentioned in the foregoing, represenis
Moon who governs the masses or the
public in general and dealings with them.
Ketu is stationed in 6 in the constellation
of Saturn, the planet of dembcracy.
The Ilth house governs desire as well
as its fulfilment; the 6th house, victory
over enemies. As the Ilth cusp is.conjointly
ruled by Jupiter and Ketu, the desire? is
clearly denoted, and the situation of Moon
in the constellation and sub of Jupiter and
Ketu shows beyond doubt the querent's
mind.
C. Is success promised?
To find this out, let us note the Ilth
cusp. It falls in the sign Dhanus owned
by Jupiter, in the constellation of Ketu
and in the sub governed by Jupiter again.
Jupiter is poisted right on the cusp of the
house. If Jupiter, it is said that success
rides laughing at his right hand, and his
position on the cusp of the Ilth house as"
the planet of 'good luck' is the surest
indication of success beyond expectations.
It is a position conducive for social success,
popularity and credit. (Mark Jupiter in trine

C. Analysis
The llth cusp in the horary chart falls
in Dhanus 50-6'. It is in Jupiter's sign,
Kethu's star and sub of Mars. Mars is not
retrograde. It is deposited in the constellation
of Venus in direct motion and exalted in
the 2nd house. The sub-lord Mars itself is
in the 3rd house and is its owner too. It is
in the constellation of an exalted planet,
Venus, in 2nd house and this is a good
indication, but the sub occupied by Mars is
governed by Rahu. Rahu is the strongest
significator for 12th house matters and is
placed in the constellation and sub of
Moon who has gone to the 7th house.
Rabu, to some extent, gives the results of
Saturn's occupation of 3rd house but it is
powerful to offer the malefic results of the
7th and 12th houses also. Mars, the sub-
lord of the llth cusp, it is a beneficial con-
stellation but in an unfavourable sub. Mars

*AYANAMSA is the amount of arc ("longitude; by which the Sayana (western) and
Nirayana (lodian) Zodiacs differ, the arc by which the Nirayana Zodiac is behind the Sayana
Zodiac. Ayana means precession of Bquinoaes, Sayana (Sa Ayana) means precession included
in calculations, and Nirayana (Nir Ayana) means precession subtracted from calculations. The
gravitational attraction of the Sun and Moon on the Earth causes the axis of the Earth to tilt
slightly, so that a displacement of 30.2388475 seconds of celesiial longitude occurs in the time it
takes the Earth to complete an annual revolution around the Sun. This phenomenon was very well
known to ancient Indians from the carlist times. Even so they advocated the Nirayana
Zodiac, whose point of commencement is with reference to a fixed point in the heavens
coinciding with the commencement of the nakshatra Aswini. Hence, we need to convert
all Sayana positions to the Nirayana method.

Saturn's sign, Kumbha, Rahu's star and
Rahu's sub. (On the 15th and 16th February,
the Moon was transiting the same position,
but the matter was delayed as Saturn was
involved as a ruling planet, and when the
Sun passed over the same position, the event
came to pass.;. The transiting Sun was in
excellent trine aspect with the lagna rising at
the time of return, the lagna being 7 Mithuna
ruled by Rahu as the constellation as well as
sub lord.
Many truth seekers like me are surprised
at the literal exactness of the stellar system
when applied in the proper way. The theory
propounded by our late Guruji is simply
marvellous and should open the eyes of all
those who have been groping in the dark in
search of the truth of the sublime science of
Astrology.
Good Luck!

According to Krishnamurti Padhdhati system, houses 2, 5 and 11 and Jupiter, chief

query connected with progeny. " The 2nd house connotes family relationship in general and
includes parents partner in life, brothers, sisters and children. The ,5th house presides over
progeny. The I Uh house, being the 5th reckoned from the house of the partner in life, has also
