Majority Of Charts Provided By: Rahul Sharma, Delhi

With Obeisance to Lord Ganapathi and to the Karma Karaka Lord Saturn we submit this technique at the holy feet of Sage Bhrighu, the founder of Bhrighu astrology.

B S P – 22

Sage Bhrighu’s Easy Methodology (Bhrighu Saral Paddathi) 22

BSP 22: Saturn implements its energy in the 6^th house from itself in the 28^th year.

Saturn will implement its energies in the 6H from the place it is located in the 28^th year of a native’s life.

Chart 1: Saturn in Lagna

DOB: 19-Jan-1980, TOB: 22:04 Hrs, POB: New Delhi, 77 E 12; 28 N 36

a) The 28^th year of the native was operating from Jan 2007 to Jan 2008.

c) In her 28^th year this native got married and went overseas to Canada. Later in the same year the marriage failed and the native filed for a divorce in the same year.

d) Note that the 6H is activated by BSP-22 rule Saturn’s 6^th influence, Saturn is seperative by nature, Saturn is also the 6L of fights and divorce and Venus is with Ketu another karaka of fights and separation.

Data supplied by Anita K, SA Mumbai Club

DOB: 22-Jun-1960, TOB: 04:30 Hrs, POB: Aurangabad (Maharashtra), 77 E 57; 28 N 31

The 28^th year of this native would be from June 1987 to June 1988.
Note Saturn is in the 8H with Jupiter (both retrograde), and Jupiter is lord of elder brother being the 11L. Next, note Saturn and Jupiter together; use BSP 5/6 published earlier and you would see Aries is spoilt, where Mars is placed.
Karaka (here Mars) placed in the 12H is always to be watched for and observed as to how it gives results in special manner, it will always be a special manner and at times crooked (SA Editor). Mars here is also lord of 7H of marriage and 7^th co-lord is Ketu sitting in the house of Saturn, so Saturn gains power to deliver 7H results.
Saturn is 9L of legal marriage/arranged marriage, it sits in the 8H of depression influencing with its 6^th influence on the Ascendant, where Moon (karaka of Mind) is placed in the 1H of brain.
Note retrograde planets have to be seen from previous house too and hence Saturn will go in the 7H of marriage.
In her 28^th year there were many proposals which didn’t materialise. Her parents would always find fault with the boys and when she liked any boy. Her elder brother created lots of problems (lord of father and elder brother both together in 8H) due to which she started going into depression. Then around March 1988 (28^th year) she along with her parents went on a trip to Muscat where her brothers were working. This brother of hers went to the extent of telling the parents that why did you give birth to such a daughter. He used to call his friends and manhandle her at the age of ten and once she was saved by the maid. Hearing the abusive language she went into total depression for two years, her personality was spoilt later in 1993 she resumed her studies and today she is a Sanskrit teacher and still unmarried.

SA Editor

Below are two charts which are important to understand especially the last one.

Chart 9: Rodica, Astrologer from Romania

Sometimes when an article is ready before it published we pass it on to few of the friends of SA magazine, to get feedback. When this article was passed on to this lady astrologer from Romania who has been studying Vedic Astrology since quite some time and mentored since few months by SA team members. She instantly reacted like this (edited version below).

Dearest ….,

What a big surprise! I have already checked the information!

At my age of 28 years old, I had a severe lack of Calcium and I lost the majority of my teeth! It was a real madness! Saturn, the lord of my 11th and 12th houses (of gains and losses) in the 9^th (with 2L of teeth Mars), this Saturn implemented its effects in the 2nd (the 6th from it), where Ketu is, too. So, the problems at the level of mouth appeared and they occurred for a long time.

Excellent!

Have a nice day, dearest friend.

Rodica.

Chart 10: Ernst Wilhem, Americas most famous Jyotish Guru

We do not have enough praises for this astrologer, who though being a modern guy is not commercial. He is a professional astrologer but not commercial. We have seen that money does not corrupt him unlike what is happening to modern Indian astrologers.

When this article was sent his reaction was dismissal :-

It is interesting, but I am not finding it working great in my chart. These snap shot techniques, I find that usually they are not comprehensive enough in their methodology to work on high statistical average, but they are good to learn as the intuition pulls us into using the technique in the charts where it will be revealing. Would be interesting to see the rest of the text as well so that all the principles are used together for a more complete and accurate prediction.

Take care,

Ernst

Very few times we get a chart where BSP does not work, the reason for it one day we would explain in full. So we sent him Rodica’s email on how it worked on her chart. Ernst being an true lover of astrology replied the next day.

Well maybe it works better than I thought. I have Saturn in my 9^th (see chart above) and so it affects my 2^nd. At 28 I had a baby tooth that had never fallen out decompose and I had to have it pulled. After pulling it, the adult tooth came in behind it which had been sitting up in my jaw for 15 years and for some reason did not push out the small tooth.

So I will think about this more on other charts.

Ernst

BSP & Its Working

In the Saptarishis Astrology Mumbai Club meetings where we teach some BSPs and also over the years we have tested BSP on hundreds of charts, very few times we get feedback from natives that a particular technique is not working (BSP Mer 40^th year rule taught at Mumbai Club meetings & passed on to Mr. Mohanji, an SA Editor, it did not work on his chart, thi:-s technique has not been published so far). There are many reasons it will not work instantly, what is being written below is something no one has dared to write yet this bold step must be taken inspite of the fear of being criticized in forums or face books.

Humans DON’T remember events after a few years. Most of us do not even remember when we got married or got a good job after few years have passed by.
Some of them think back and after few days come back to us that the technique did work. E.g Ameetji, a dear friend from SA Mumbai Club had Mer in the 8H in Cn, so we predicted if an event happened in his mother’s life in the 40^th year, he said no, after 5 days he called up and said he removed all the medical files of his mother and in the 40^th year she was admitted in Nanavati hospital for a major surgery.
To master BSP one has to be an absolute Master of Houses, Planets & Signs and even after 70 years in astrology, one cannot master it. For example to understand the meaning of this statement, read Uttakalaamrita by Kalidasa, Chapter 5 and you would realize that most practicising astrologers and writers of astrology have not understood/utilized our classics, then after few years of reading each classic and each book on the subject, you would realize that to understand houses, planets and signs is the most difficult and yet the most important thing that all of us ignored whereas it is easiest to write an article on 100’s of dasas. For e.g take Chp 5, the shloka on karakatwa of Venus, it says that Venus is karaka for speaking truth, this point no one has said, max what people have said is Saturn is karaka for telling lies. Then take the chart of Mahatma Gandhi, observe he has Venus in 1H with 2L Mars, then study his biography and see that he decided to tell the truth as it is, including his sexual experiments, it shows a super fine Venus and then compare other charts where Venus is again with 2L Mars and see how each Venus is playing its part, is the man telling the full truth. This is the subtleness of judging a planet.
Astrologers and non astrologers often come up with statements that no event happened for a particular year – this is vague, God cannot be so uncreative. Something always keeps on happening, an event loses its charm and importance after a period so we think nothing happened.
If an event did not happen in a particular year, then some planets blocked it from happening, this is Veda as described in our shastras, the use of it in its entirety is not known to any astrologer & is probably lost. Which is why Sage Narada has mentioned that without application of Veda astrologers are futile in their predictions.
Astrologers make the classical selfish mistake of first testing a technique on their own chart; if it does not work they reject it. A true scientist first tests a method on hundreds of charts before coming to conclusion, whereas 100 % of astrologers start with their own chart and maximum test it on 3-4 charts before coming to conclusion. This is the biggest mistake a modern scientific minded astrologer can make. It’s not easy to kick this habit as its human nature. An oft repeated statement in our SA Mumbai Club meetings is ‘what I am going to teach now is what has worked on 20 charts but it does not work on my chart, the technique is not at fault, either my memory is at fault or my implementation of the basic principles of astrology is at fault.’
Faith – The Key. Only your Guru can teach you that ‘without faith you can never cross the ocean of astrology’. Shastras always tell about Blind Faith in Bhakti (devotion) to God, Knowledge, Guru Vaach, Rishi Vaach. It has been observed today that there are no real Gurus and no real students, also students don’t even know how to love and treat ones Guru, they just treat their Guru as an ‘Predictive Technique Oriented Computer’. Also, unfortunately today’s astrologers and astro students will even test Parashara or Brahma to statistical testing. Develop Blind Faith, once you develop blind faith in any astro technique, the technique has to work 100 % for you, except when your ego has taken over. The technique works for you rather than you using the technique, you would feel you are using a technique but the technique is using you to give the destined prediction to the client. Only those charts that are destined for your correct predictions will come to you, that’s your destiny and that’s the dasa that you are running. Once your bad karma takes over or when you are supposed to be taught the lesson of ego, then a technique that you must have used on 2000 charts successfully will fail on that one chart that came next. That’s the reason astrology is a mystical shastra and not a statistical science, that’s the reason no Rishi ever wrote a book where he showed a technique working on 100 charts, no Rishi ever wrote a statement where he said he has tested so and so technique on 100 charts and it works well. It’s only the modern 20^th century man who can write such statements of percentages of success since he thinks he is more intelligent than a Rishi, since he assumes that the Rishi did not know about statistical testing of a technique. How we under estimate our Rishis abilities and yet in the same breath say the Rishi is great.

The above points are gathered from various parts of the Last Book Of Astrology, which is in dialogue with a Yogi.
