Sage Bhrighu’s Blessings

Saptarishis Astrology Editors: Helen Patterson, USA & M Imran, Pakistan.
ith Obeisance to my Guru Late Shri C.S. Patel, who was based in
Mumbai and to my Mentor, who is based in New Delhi, I submit this
work at their holy feet, and request them to accept it and bless it. It has
been nearly three years since we wrote an editorial or presented a complete system of
prediction (paddathi).
Background & Exploitation
irth time rectification is one of the toughest areas in astrology, but at the same
time, one of the biggest money making spinners, especially for the Gurus of
today. If one notices existing rectification practices, one feels that past Gurus
and the modern ones have not given us much to work upon. As a result, every new
entrant in astrology wastes a lot of time on it without knowing any rectification method

with entirety. Then there are quantitative birth time rectification techniques, found in
astrology classics, and also replicated in modern books. However, there is no substantial
way to determine practical effectiveness of mathematical rectification technique. Many
authors and researchers hold that quantitative birth time rectification methods, like
pranapada etc. do not yield satisfactory outcome, probably because there is no way to
counter-checking them.
Tattva rectification method, advocated by late Shri Subba Rao is considered a
reliable way. However, its reliability has not yet been researched with the help of birth
data sample that is accurately recorded and duly certified by astrological institutes. Most
of us are following it unscientifically.
Thumb impression is the best methods of birth time rectification. However, only 4
experts in India are known to know about it, one of the best among them was the Late
Narendra Desai, a great legend in USA, but unknown in India. Another finest and
practical method is rectification through tallying life events with dasha and gochar.
Amongst the popular writers, Shri K.N. Rao has stressed upon it. Event based
rectification systems are tricky, especially when dasha is used to verify the life-events,
since dasha are open to diverse interpretation and variations.
Event based rectifications on the basis of Shastiamsa (D60) is quite dependable. The
D60 chart changes approximately after every 2 minutes. Sometimes back, a chart of a
western astrologer was seen by the scribe. In her D60, Libra was ascendant, while Saturn
the 4L of property was sitting in the 8H from Asc, and 4H having A8 (inheritance). It
was predicted to her whether she got an inheritance during 51st year. She replied in
affirmative, also since from Moon lagna in D60, Saturn was the 6L. So it was asked
whether inheritance sharing was a long-drawn battle, to which she replied in the
affirmative again. It means her D60 ascendant is fairly accurate. One knows by using
BSP techniques: wherever Saturn sits, it implements its energies in the 51st year. This is
the event based verification, but one has to use numerous methods to arrive at the same
conclusion.
If we are honest to ourselves and admit our lack of perfect knowledge only then can we strive
to get the truth out of any chart, since the chart finally speaks back to the one with the honest heart
and tells you how the planets will give the result in that chart. The biggest mistake most
astrology students commit is to land up learning astrology for two to five years, and
assume that their own birth time is not accurate based on their limited experience. We
have also seen some people spending decades of their lives, paying out thousands of
dollars, and going from Jyotish Guru to another, just in order to dig out their correct and
real time of birth. During the last one decade, we have observed so many astrology
aspirants to have committed the same mistake. The thick amount of money and precious
time could have been spent in donations, welfare work, and earning better karma, rather
than spending on hundreds of astrologers. The point (which no astrologer admits
honestly) is that even after twenty to thirty years of experience in astrology, we lack
proficiency of correctly predict a dasa and gochar, or understand yogas1. In this situation,
how can we decide if a birth chart is correct or not, finally we end up rectifying the birth
chart or the ayanamsa, although it might not be needed.
Since nearly a decade, this scribe has rigorously worked on birth time rectification
using the Shastiamsa (D60) methods, a part of it was revealed for the first time to the
Jyotish community through series of articles called ‘Secrets of Shastiamsa’, published in
year 2010/2011 in Saptarishis Astrology magazine. Like the Shastiamsa method where
BCP (Bhrighu Chakra Paddathi) and BSP (Bhrighu Saral Paddathi) methods were
combined, we have developed 4 more independent methods. One of which we have
taught in our Nadi classes conducted in Mumbai. In one of those techniques, by seeing a
chart within three seconds a good astrologer can predict an event and year of its
occurrence. If native confirms it, then the birth time is accurate to the minute. In the
1 95 % of the astrologers do not go beyond the 300 yogas mentioned in Dr Ramans book, what about the 100,000
yogas collected by a Nagpur based astrologer in hindi, will we ever read it or forget mastering it since mastering
300 yogas in itself is not possible. – SA Editor
Nadi Classes and in the SA Mumbai Club, we have tested so many blind charts through
the 3 second method.
The olden astrologers’ trump card is to fix the ascendant with the help of
characteristics of the body, appearance, face etc. This technique, though accepted widely
in India, is open to interpretation, and sometime does not match the test of time. Fixing
ascendant through physical appearance and temperament may be misleading. For
instance, Rajiv Gandhi’s janma lagna was earlier suggested Cancer by senior astrologers
due to soumya (calm) appearance of native. However, later it was discovered that Rajiv
Gandhi was a case of Leo lagna, despite the fact he did not show the dominance of a Leo,
despite having so many planets in his Leo ascendant.
Birth Time Rectification
What if we can pin point one planet, say Moon, in the Navamsa chart and fix it to
a particular house, and be sure that it can only be in that very house and nowhere else. In
this situation, could we be sure of the Navamsa Lagna?
This article focuses on the Moon’s Navamsa position only, then observing its sign, its
house, its dispositor and aspects and seeing if an event concerning all the above happened
in a specific year as per the table listed below. This is birth time rectification via event
method, once we fix the moon in the navamsa, that is when we fix its house (via this
sign method) we know what is the navamsa lagna and then we move around and get the
correct lagna and thus the correct time
Position of the Moon contains seeds of past life specific karma2, the nakshatra Moon is
placed in contains the highest secrets which has not come out so far unfortunately. Hence the
Moons Navamsa position is a more specific point which cannot be ignored and this has
been mentioned in ChandraKala Nadi (Devakeralam) translated by R Santhanam and a
classic on which Late C S Patel worked for many decades.
2 Vague references can be found in Karma Vipak Samhita, a discourse between Lord Shiva and Mata Parvati, few
chapters of it SA has published earlier. – SA Editor
Moon’s Sign & Event Year
Following is the table extracted from a Nadi work. Moon’s Navamsa Rasi Aries is
28th year, Moon’s Navamsa Rasi Taurus is 29th year, and Gemini is 30, and so on up to
Pisces that stands for 39th year.
Moon’s Navamsa and Nadi Age
S.N. Moon’s Nav. Sign Nadi Age
1 Aries 28th year
2 Taurus 29
3 Gemini 30
4 Cancer 31
5 Leo 32
6 Virgo 33
7 Libra 34
8 Scorpio 35
9 Sagittarius 36
10 Capricorn 37
11 Aquarius 38
12 Pisces 39
Use only this cycle to check the birth time rectification, though at the end we
would give one more example that goes beyond the cycle, but if you want to master this
technique then use this cycle only to start with.
What happens if someone is not remembering the events between 28th to 39th
years? What happens if one gets a chart where the age of the native is below 28 (say
just 24 years) then how we can use this system? It will be shown in another table after
the set of 7-8 odd examples. This whole article is Part 1 & 2 and Part 3 of the
methodology which is an independent system of prediction to be used irrespective of
the Moon will be revealed soon.
Warning
This system is not perfect, as will be shown in the very first example, that chart will be
taken once again at the end of this article. This is just one of the tools that one must use
along with other methods and many more events. Only then you come to the right
conclusion.
Defining Nadi Age
Indians do not make a mistake in this, but Westerners do make a mistake due to the
different counting systems prevalent in their countries.
From zero month of birth till 12th month of birth – the nadi age is 1st year. It means
you are in your first year. A Westerner would give the age by stating how many months
have passed since the birth, i.e. my child is six months old. In India, we say the child is in
his 1st year or running his first year.
Broadly speaking it’s like this:
From To Nadi Age - Indian Counting
1st Day (birth date) 365 days 1st year
1 year 1 day 1 year 364 days 2nd year
2nd year 1 day 2nd year 364 days 3rd year
How to Use The Table
So if your Moon Navamsa is in Aries, in the 5H of Navamsa chart then events related to
5H of love/education, and the yogas in that house/planet associated or the aspects it
receives, the lordships of the respective planets will work and give an event. If Moon is
in the 2H in Pisces, then at the age of 39th, that is in the 39th year of the native some
events concerning 2H of family, finances can happen.
Chart 1: Mukesh
Now see Moon is in Aries Navamsa in the 7H of secondary house of profession, it
is 10L of career also and is conjoint with Jupiter the 6L of job.
Jupiter signifies banking (authority ref. Phaladeepika, initial chapter by Gopesh
Kumar Ojha).
In the 28th year he got a job in SBI bank, the biggest bank of India on 5th Jan 2009
when he was running the 28th year which would be from March 2008 to March 2009.
At the end of this part we would take up this chart again to see the Warning as
mentioned before.
Chart 2: PD ref Devas
A 5
Moon is in Gemini in 8H, so 30th year which would be from Feb 2006 to Feb 2007.
So the possibilities are if sex happened in that year or some depression (Rahu’s 9th
aspect) or relationship and depression.
We asked the above possibilities and the message received that the girl went into
major depression since she had gotten a marriage proposal of an Indian Canadian dentist
and things were set. Then the boy’s girlfriend once picked up the phone call (between
boy and this female native). The boy’s girlfriend said to her to leave the boy and break
the engagement. The engagement broke, and she went into major depression. Here the
boy did not tell the truth that he had a girlfriend.
One can see on hindsight that Moon is in Gemini with A5 (arudha of 5H
signifying mind) in 8H of depressions, aspected by Rahu and Mars, besides opposition of
Saturn, Jupiter and Venus. Furthermore, Moon’s lord Mercury has gone in the 6H of
separation along with Ketu (giving break in relationships).
Chart 3: R Dev
In Navamsha, Moon is in Pisces in 4H, along with Venus the 6L and 11L.
The 8L Moon is aspected by Rahu from 12H of separation, where Rahu is co-lord of
Aquarius (3H).
Pisces denotes 39th year as per the table above, which in her case would be from
Jan 2013 to Jan 2014.
She was asked if she bought a house or anything to do with the house or some loan
for house. She said she bought a costly property in a posh area (Venus) having lot of
beautiful amenities, and it was on loan along with her husband (11L of spouse).
She was asked whether there were troubles to her mother (Moon is 8L in 4H of
mother), or some chronic problems to her mother, she replied yes. Native’s mother was
detected with osteoporosis and spondolysis and rheumatism.
She was asked whether any dispute with her siblings especially brothers happened
in that year (age 39). Note dispositor of Mars is Rahu/Saturn and retrograde Saturn’s
aspects in turn back to the Mars (Late J.N. Bhasin method published in 1978 or 1979 September
issue of B.V. Raman’s Astrological Magazine, as per memory). Here Rahu also aspects the
Moon. She confirmed that a quarrel occurred between her brothers. Since then (around
1.5 years), she has not spoken to her elder brother. Note 3H is not merely stands for
younger siblings, but denotes all siblings. Note Venus is dispositor of a debilitated Sun
(11H), and this Venus is in the 4H of property. The present cost of said property is
nearing 1 crore rupees (about quarter of a million US dollar).
She was asked whether any event related to her son’s education happened this year.
This was inquired because Moon’s dispositor is Jupiter. And Jupiter is in the 5H
(children) along with retrograde Saturn – the 2L of early education. She said yes, her son
was enrolled for the first time for a formal schooling, but this event happened with ifs
and buts. In fact, the earlier school, they had applied in, had rejected them. Then they
took him to another school and after 1 month they called back saying seat is available. So
she removed from that school and took him to the one which had earlier rejected them.
Chart 4: N Bs Daughter
Moon is in 3H in Virgo Navamsa. Hence 33rd should be important. Age 33
corresponding to Virgo spans from October 2012 to October 2013.
Native’s mother was asked whether her daughter had some short travels. The
mother replied yes, out of the city short travels. Moon’s dispositor (Mercury) is in 9H of
bhagya with Saturn – the 7L of public recognition and name. Mercury is also aspected by
Mars – 10L of career.
She informed that her daughter (native) also got an award for her work and
bhagyodaya (prosperity) opened up.
Chart 5: Ref 4 San Jha
Moon is in 4H in Gemini Rasi which is 30th year as per given above Nadi table.
In 30th year, native begotten a female child (became mother).
Moon is 5L of children in 4H of home, so in house a child was born. For gender of
child, see Moon is the dispositor of Venus , and associated with 2L Mars and 11L Saturn.
Keep in mind 11H also stands for children (BPHS, Chapter 11, Shloka 11, says 11H denotes
spouse and children).
Chart 6: Na B
Moon is in Mesha Navamsa in 2H. This is equal to 28th year.
Note Moon is in 2H of wealth and acquisitions and associated with Jupiter who is
the dispositor of the 4L of home and property. Mars – dispositor of Moon – is sitting in
10H and aspects 4H of property (Mars is also a karaka of property).
This same Mars also aspects the 4L lord Mercury. So there are prospects of gain of
property and this lady bought a house. Since Mars is 2L, therefore some financial gain
also obtained.
Chart 7: Ref 1 San Jha
Moon is in Gemini Navamsa in 11H. The Gemini Navamsa is 30th year.
In the 30th year native got married.
11h is the house of spouse/child (as per BPHS chapter 11 Shloka 11). The 11L
Mercury is in the 1H (of the 1/7 axis of marriage) in the Rahu Ketu axis thereby giving
possibility of marriage. The native was asked whether the native felt it was a very karmic
marriage, and he replied in the affirmative.
Chart 8: A Ban & A Failure
Moon is in 4H in Cancer with Ketu, Karka as per our table signifies 31st year which
would be from Oct 2012 to Oct 2013. It being in the and receiving aspect of only
Saturn and Mars we asked the native “I have some events but can u let me know if
any events concerning 4H happened in the 31st year that means events concerning
4H - property, residence shift, mothers health or anything to do with mother etc
etc”
The native replied “From October 2012 to October 2013, I was in my hometown and
did studies related to certified financial planner and successfully completed this
tough course in June 2013. Mother was fine and no problems. But in July 2012 (31st
year), my dad had both knee replacement operation from which he successfully
recovered.”
This shows the failure in our prediction yet we have often repeated in the Nadi
Classes in Mumbai, “Whenever you pin point a house via any system always first check
6th
, 8th
, 12th
from it to get the worst events instantly”
On hindsight of this failure if we see from the 4H of the focus of Moons Navamsa
Rasi, the 6th house of diseases would be 9th house of father, the 8th house from 9H of
father would be the 4H of Moons Navamsa Rasi indicating 31st year. Mars the 12L
(doctors/hospitals) from 9H of father and signifying operations is aspecting 4H
containing Moons Navamsa Rasi, thus his father had an operation.
In hindsight all kinds of justification can be done and it is a failure but we also cannot
forget the engineer who made a BMW car can never drive it like Michael Schumacher &
without that engineer no one would have even heard of Michael Schumacher.
Warning
Chart 1 : Mukesh
This system is not perfect as will be shown in the very first example is what we had
mentioned at the start of this article. This is just one of the tools that one must use,
combining it with other methods, by evaluating more events and then come to the
correct conclusion. Let’s see the first chart again and then change the birth time by
adding 9 minutes for D9 Lagna to change.
Original Navamsa
Explanation that was given in earlier part of this article is reproduced below:
Now see Moon is in Aries Navamsa in the 7H of secondary house of profession, it is 10L of
career also and is conjoint with Jupiter the 6L of job.
