Intrepretation of Planetary Transit [SP]

Intrepretation of Planetary Transit

Astrology is founded on the “Doctrine of Karma”. Infact, destiny depends upon Sanchita Karmas, generated by one’s action in the past. Logically, destiny would depend and be commensurate with the past karmas. This makes destiny a predetermined factor and is clearly irrevocable, as past Karmas cannot be modified or erased. Even knowledge of part karmas spread over number of lives, we might have experienced, is not feasible to a normal person. Happening in lives being the result of one’s own past karmas, planets do not cause events in one’s life. Yet in Astrology, we are very much concerned with the movement of planets in predicting the future of a person and sequence of events, he is likely to face in his life. The secret of Astrology is in this paradox. Once we get to the basic truth, the contradictions disappear.

The effect of one’s action “Destiny” remains dormant till such time, it is able to manifest as a result and thus expend itself. The interval between the action and its result, we may call it the incubation period, extends over several life spans. In order to understand the nature of results, one needs to have access to the knowledge of destiny between the period of action and its results. Such an access is beyond the means of the human senses. One will have to transcend the boundary of physical knowledge to get a vision of the truth about the working of the forces of Destiny. Intution plays an important role in correct predictions.

The native is always interested to know precisely the timing of events that are likely to be happen in his life span. The importance of dasha/ antardasha cannot be over emphasized yet it remains the most important tool for timing of events. The findings achieved by dasha/ antardasha can further be improved by a combination of application of Divisional Charts, Varsha Phal, Gochar, Ashtakvarge etc. Though as many as 42 dasha system have been propounded by Maha Rishi Prashar but most commonly used Vimshotri dasha with as assumed human life span of 120 years is largely followed by scholars, students and practioners of Astrology. This is more frequently used for the inherent simplicity of the mechanism of Vimshotri system and convenience of its application resulting in precisely accurate predictions. Vimshotri dasha is also known as Nakshatra dasha, as it is the lord of the Nakshatra occupied by the Moon at the time of birth of a native that determines the initial dasha.
