While I have been studying Astrology for a number of years, I was wondering if there is a connection between Astrology and Numerology. I found out in a number of horoscopes that numerology is reflected in the astrological D-1 and D-9 charts plus the Nakshatras and the birth dates. This is illustrated in this article using the charts of well known people.

The following assumptions have been made for the illustration:

1 represents Sun

2 represents Moon

3 represents Jupiter

4 represents Rahu/ negative aspect of
Sun (1and 4 exchangeable)

5 represents Mercury

6 represents Venus

7 represents Ketu/ negative aspect of
Moon(2 and 7 exchangeable)

8 Represents Saturn

9 Represents Mars

Application: With the help of numerology, a check on the correctness of the birth-data can be made. Either the birth number, or the destiny number are connected with

Natal Ascendant or D-9 Ascendant
Ascendant lord or and Moon sign lord
Lords of Nakshatras occupied by Moon or Ascendant lord.

Example 1. Pt, J L Nehru. DOB 14-11-1889, Lat. 25N 27 Long . 81E51, at 23.05hrs.

Birth number 1+4=5. Destiny number 1+4+1+1+1+8+8+9=33 3+3=6

Both Ascendant and Moon are in the Nakshatra of Ashlesha whose lord is Mercury. Birth number 5 represents Mercury. Destiny number 6 represents Venus. Venus is with the Ascendant lord Moon in D-9 Chart.

Example 2. Rajiv Gandhi DOB 20-08-1944 in Mumbai at 8.11.AM Lat.18N58, Long.72E49

Birth number 2 Destiny number 20+8+1+9+4+4=46 4+6= 10 which means 1

Sun represents Number 1 , Moon represents Number 2

D-1 Ascendant and D-9 Ascendant is Leo whose lord is Sun, representing 1.

Moon representing 2 is also in D-1 Ascendant.

Example 3. Sanjay Gandhi DOB 14-12-1946 , Delhi, at 9.27AM Lat.

About Author : Mr. Benadi was born in a Jain business family in Chinchali, Belgaum district, Karnataka in the year 1939. In 1970, Mr. Benadi went to Germany, where he settled down as a structural consultant and retired in July 2004. In 1991, he consulted 3 astrologers to find out whether the muhurtha chosen by him for building a house was good. All of them said OK. In spite of that, he had quite a few difficulties while building his house. From then onwards he studied Astrology much more seriously and found out that there were flaws in the muhurtha chosen. In course of his study, he met several senior astrologers like Dr. BV Raman, Dr. Vasan, Prof. RG Rao, Dr. Krishna Kumar, late R Santhanam, late C S Patel, Dr Desika, late S K Kelkar, late Dr CG Thakkur and enjoyed astrological interaction with them.
