Nakshatra and Nadi Jyotish [NP]

Nakshatra and Nadi Jyotish

This volume covers several facets of Nakṣatra and Nāḍī Jyotiṣa. The Nakṣatra Jyotiṣa delineates the core principles of the Meena1 Nāḍī, Meena2 Nāḍī, Kṛṣṇamūrti Paddhati (KP) and Iyer’s Paddhati. Iyer’s Paddhati is based on the legendary Jyotiṣī Śrī HR Sheshadri Iyer, whose books, the New Techniques of Prediction 3 volumes are cornerstones of Jyotiṣa.

Śrī Iyer did not exclusively deal with the Nakṣatras. Still, his determination and usage of Yogī and Avayogi and the usage of Nakṣatra is pathbreaking, which is why it is included in this book dedicated to Nakṣatra and Nāḍī Jyotiṣa. I have covered in detail some abstruse concepts with worked-out examples, such as the Starter and Ruler for assessment of Viñśottarī Daśā.

The Nāḍī Jyotiṣa section covers the essential principles from Saptaṛṣi Nāḍī and Bhṛgu Nandi Nāḍī. Besides providing a synopsis of the genre of Nāḍī Jyotiṣa, there is a detailed exploration of topics such as the blending of Kārakatvas and how the blending is affected by the sequence of Grahas having yuti in a Rāśi.

I hope that this book will provide wide coverage of topics from both Nakṣatra and Nāḍī Jyotiṣa that both beginners and advanced practitioners would find useful.
