Order of Signification

In any horoscope, Cusp is of Utmost Importance, and that is because the sign is on the cusp of each house. Every planet occupies a sign and the strength of that planet is ,according to the 3 basic signs. These are:
1) Planet's own sign
2) Planet's exaltation sign
3) Planet's debilitation sign

Thus, in a way the occupant of the sign is stronger than the owner of the sign(Do take care of this thing, as it is very important in making predictions).

If we divide the 360 degree zodiac belt, we can say that every sign is 1/12th part of the zodiac belt. Also, I would like to mention that the Power and Importance of Constellations can never be neglected as they are stronger than the sign itself. Thus, a planet in the star is stronger than its Star Lord (which may be either the occupant or the owner of the sign). The occupant (planet) in a sign mostly gives the results of the house occupied by it. So the planet in the star better gives the results of the house occupied by its Star Lord.

According to the above principles by Late. Prof. Shri. KSK the order or strength of the significators of each house should be determined by:

1. Planet in the Occupants Star:

A planet in the star of the occupant of a house is stronger than the occupant. So it should be given first preference as a significator of that house, because it is strongest to give the results of the house occupied by its Star lord. The occupant remains as a weak significators of that house.

2. Occupant:

If there is no planet in the occupants Star, the occupant becomes the strong significator of that house and it is strong to give the results of that house. So the second preference should be given to the occupant of that house.

3. Planet in the Owners Star:

If the house is vacant, the planet in the star of the owner of a house is stronger than the owner. So it becomes a strong significator of that house and it is strong to give the results of that house. Hence the third preference should be given to the planet in the owners star and the owner remains a weak significator of that house.

4. Owner:

If the house is vacant and if there is no planet in the owners star, the owner itself becomes the strong significator of that house and it is strong to give the results of that house. So the 4th preference should be given to the owner of that house.

5. Planet in Conjunction Or Aspect:

(a) A planet in conjunction or association with, or aspected by a significator gives the results of the house or houses denoted by that significator. So the last preference should be given to the planet in conjunction or aspect with that significator.

(b) A planet aspecting the house may be considered as the significator of that house.

6. A planet in the star of the planet aspecting the house. For example: Say Saturn in the 5th aspects the 7th, 11th, and 2nd. So the planet in the star of Saturn will give the results of the 2nd, 7th, and 11th.

General Strength of a Planet

Hello Everyone, Today I will put across the basic 4 ways to calculate the strength of a planet. These are

Strength by House:

1. A planet gives first and foremost the results of the strength of the house occupied by the planet, and secondly by the owner of the house.

2. When determining the house strengths, the angles or angular houses are first in strength (1st, 4th, 7th, and 10th), followed by the succedent houses (2nd, 5th, 8th, and 11th), and lastly the cadent houses (3rd, 6th, 9th, and 12th).

3. The owners of houses 6, 8, or 12 (and these are counted from ANY particular house to be judged) becomes weak, evil, or malefic in effects.

Strength by Sign:

1. A planet is strong when it is in its own or exalted sign. A planet is weak when it is afflicted, and/or in its detriment or fall (debilitated) sign.

2. The nature of the sign - for example - cardinal, fixed, or moveable, fire, earth, air or water sign, fruitful or barren sign, human or bestial sign, mute or voice sign, masculine or feminine sign, on the cusp of the planet posited there, influences the affairs of the house and the planet.

Strength by Aspect:

1. A planet on conjunction or associated with or aspected by a malefic (for example - the owners of the 6th, 8th, or 12th), becomes weak and afflicted.

2. An aspecting planet modifies the results of the house matters according to its natural benefic or malefic, friendly or inimical state.

Nakshatra System:

1. A planet becomes strong if its star lord is strong by house, sign, and aspect; and it will be in a position to give the results indicated by its star lord to the desired extent.

2. A planet becomes weak if its star lord is weak by house, sign, and aspect, and it will not be in a position to give the results indicated by its star lord to the desired extent.

Determining the Strength of the Lagna Lord

Hello Everyone,

Today I will tell you how the strength of lagna lord is determined. Also, how is lagna lord considered to be either strong or weak in any birth chart. The following 4 are the indicators of strength versus weakness.

1. A very strong levels of the lagna lord.

2. Middle levels of strength of the lagna lord.

3. Weak levels of the lagna lord strength.

4. Very weak levels of lagna lord strength.

1. A very strong level of the lagna lord means that the lagna lord should occupy any one of the following houses: the 2nd, 3rd, 9th, 10th, 11th, or 4th, and tenant the stars of the lords of the 2nd, 10th, and/or 11th houses.

2. Middle level strength of the lagna lord means that the lagna lord is not found occupying the 2nd, 3rd, 9th, 10th, 11th, or 4th, but instead occupies the 5th, the 8th, or the 12th and tenants the stars of the lords of the 2nd, 10th, and/or 11th.

3. For Weak levels of a lagna lord there are 2 ways to look at it.

First:

Weak levels of a lagna lord means that the lagna lord - though occupying any one of the following houses - 2nd, 3rd, 9th, 10th, 11th, or 4th - tenants the star lords of the 5th, 8th, or 12th houses.

Second:

A different way of looking at this would be to say that the lagna lord occupying the 5th, 8th, or 12th house and tenanting the stars of the lords of the 2nd, 10th or 11th, makes the lagna lord appear to be strong but is actually considered to be one step below that of the middle level of strength.

4. Very weak levels of a lagna lord means that the lagna lord is occupying the 5th, 8th, or 12th house and also tenanting the the stars of the lords of the 5th, 8th, or 12th houses.

All birth charts you come across will not always be found to contain the positions as explained above, while certain other charts will be descriptive exactly as explained above. Other than the Sun and the Moon, all planets have lordship over two houses. One house may give pleasant results while the other house may offer unpleasant results. Keep in mind that what has been explained above with respect to a strong or weak lagna lord are only approximations. Lagna lord subjected to the 5th, 8th, and 12th houses is considered weak while lagna lord subjected to the 2nd, 3rd, 10th, and 11th houses is considered strong, but this is a general and approximate conclusion, as more synthesis is necessary before a final evaluation can be determined. For example, we have to study the house occupied by the lagna lord and the constellation it tenants, along with the aspects formed, integrate our findings, and then sort out the strength/weakness at the fundamental level before a final assessment can be made.

An example would be a person born with a Leo lagna, and the lagna lord Sun occupying the the 2nd house, posited in the star of Hasta owned by the Moon - who is 12th lord. By this position alone, this information would initially suggest a weak lord. But at the same time the Sun- by virtue of occupying the 2nd house - does not make it a totally weak lagna lord. Now by the same token if the Sun occupies Cancer - the 12th house - and is posited in the star of Mercury owned Aslesha - who owns the 2nd and 11th houses, you would initially consider the Sun to be a strong lagna lord - however - Sun as as an occupant of the 12th house does not make it a totally strong lagna lord. Therefore, with a little more effort in our analysis, we should be able to determine the correct strength of the lagna lord. A chart gifted enough to have 100% favorable results all the way around will be a rare one, as the reality is that very few births are blessed to be those of great scholars, or to be blessed with both name and fame. The majority of the population belong the the middle level, or even below the middle level. So it becomes necessary to keep all of the above in mind as you assess and evaluate the strength of the lagna lord.

KP Star Lord and Sub Lord Table

What is KrishnaMurti Padhdhati ?

What is KrishnaMurthi Padhdhati?

This was the first reaction that I gave to my loving Uncle TRK as I did not knew what exactly was it? Only to expect an answer in first place, that is, its a research topic. Just like for Engineers we have B.tech, M.tech followed by Ph.D. Similary in Astrology, Vedic Astrology is just like one of the branches in Engineering and M.tech is like doing masters in it and when you want to be Bang on and make predictions accurately and want to be very very precise then, KP is what one should aim at.
Although other researches are going on as, there are numerous students of this science who are working on this, I'll probably give an idea of what KP is all about.

To be very honest, to understand basics you need to have the basic knowledge of Vedic Astrology and it would serve real good if u have done Masters in the subject ;).

Coming back to KP. . . KP since compared with Ph.D so, obviously it gives importance to minute details to every chart. In one line overview, " KP talks in terms of constellations(Nakshatra's or Star Lords ), Sub Lord ( one out of the 9 subdivisions) and Sub Sub Lord( one out of the 9 sub divisions of the Sub Lord itself)". Sub Sub Lord is taken in case when you want Needle precision in making predictions which infact is most of the times.

For a detailed explanation of the above, do come back. . . In next post I will explain the basics of nakshatra's and how they are of utmost importance while making a prediction.

Welcome . . .

A warm Welcome to everyone hitting this blog for KrishnaMurti Paddhati.

My profile would never give you a good idea about me, but my posts will.
My interest in Astrology and Occult studies started long time back when I was in 10th standard. I know, too early to develop an interest in astrology, but that is how it all started and now this is where it is taking me.

Being honest, I started with Numerology as it was the most easiest in form but eventually Palmistry got my interest of one simple fact, I loved holding a girl's Hand :) .
Jokes apart, I left this study in between for about 2 years, but this study never left me. Some things are destined to be. I again started and this time only seriously than ever and started looking horoscopes of some of my near and dear ones and friends. This only gave me exposure and experience.

Gradually I came across the wonderful and amazing research done by Guruji Prof. Late Sri. K.S. KrishnaMurthi. His concept and research amazed me so much, although I personally had not used it, still some divine intervention told me How good can be achieved and help can be given to, those who need is truly.

With this blog of mine, I aspire to reach out people with the basic knowledge of KrishnaMurthi Padhdhati and help new learners like me.

Enough of me, some time again, and that's just a Maybe . . . Untill then lets start off with things.

And yes . . . most important thing about me. . . I am a Student and will always remain One. . . and I am always ready to learn. . .So all of you, hitting this blog, Please make sure to leave a comment, Even if its a Sarcastic one. You never know, it just might make me a better fighter :)
Until then God Speed :)
