PART — I (Theory)1 Brief History of Horary Astrology | aed Astrology - (Indian) -: It is very difficult to nswer when Horary astrology came into existence. However it could be assumed that with the dawn of human existence the astrology too got evolved with the evolution of mankind. Vedas have mentioned about astrology and the oldest Veda is Rig Veda. Therefore origin of Vedas as well as of astrology could be inferred some three thousands years before Christ. Horary astrology used to be’ called Hora Shastra as per ancient classical literatures. It means Horary astrology was studied as separate branch or quite distinct subject from general astrology. The word Horary is derived fromthe word Hora means Hour. In ancient times astrologers used to make predictions on the basis of words uttered by the querent. In later stage the predictions were made on the basis of sitting gesture of the querent, Nadi breaths, articles in the hand of querent, etc. In the time of Prithuyasas the son of Varaharnihira this system of prediction was developed, refined, rectified and advanced in well manner and systematically. This branch of astrology flourished well in Ninth, Tenth and Eleventh A.D.. Many traditional authors have written many books on this subject. Among them few noteable worth work is mentioned herewith for the benefit of the readers. Prasnachintamani, Prasnajnanam, Prasnamarga, Prasna Bhusana, Prasnatantra, Satpanchasika. Prasna-Bhairava, Bhuvan Deepika Prasna Churnamani ete. 1718 The Times Horary Astrology A Noval Approach to Predictions Astrologer used to deliver forecast on the basis of words uttered by the querent or his sitting gesture, direction etc. were the guiding principles for the astrologer, to reach the conclusion regarding the query of the querent. In later stage Astrologers resorted to different method of prediction ie. querent used to mention one number out of 108. The Ascendant was erected on the basis of number as mentioned by querent and the results were read. What is the mystery of taking number up to 108? The answer is that whole Zodiac is divided into 27 constellations or Nakshatras. Each constellation is divided into four padas. Therefore, 27 constellations have 27 x 4 = 108 padas. In this way the number up to 108 consists of whole Zodiac. This makes amply clear that constellations were used in making predictions which later on developed and advanced by Late K.S. Krishnamurti. Horary Astrology (Western) -: Westerners believed that Seth was the founder of Astrology and existed in 3769 B.C. It is said about the Seholan that he divided the whole Zodiac into 12 parts. He was the first to announce that the sun rotates and his rotation is responsible for day and night to occur. He also divided the elliptic and the divided part was called Mazzaroth. Chaldean in 2600 B.C. studied and advanced this science and was able to maintain a relationship between planets and their impact on life. According to Dr. Thompson the Sumerian studied the Zodiac andthe universe. Astrology flourished well in Babylon, Egypt and Greek. “Th thé field of Horary astrology William Lily is well known-name both in India as well as in West. He lived in 1602-81 A.D. Apart this legend, Alan Leo, Edwin Castle, John Wilson. Charles Hathfied etc worked untiring for the cause of horary astrology. They developed this science up to the perfection. There is some difference of opinions between Indians and westerners, as far as reading of nativity is concerned, Indians take seriously the position of planets in particular house and the aspect:among the planets is secondary in importance to them, where as Westerners decide on the basis of Aspects formed among the planets. Indian adopt Niryana basis while westerners advocate Sayana basis.Important Nomenclatures and Explanations 1, Zodiac -: According to traditional astrology the Zodiac commences from a constant point. This constant point is 180° away from chitra (spica) Nakshatra. While according to western astrology the zodiac commences from Aries sign O degree and retreats back by 50.23 seconds per year. 2, Sayana and Niryana system -: According to western astrology the sun is pivot to calculate or delineate the results. Moon is the central point for all calculations in Indian astrology..,, According to western astrology the Sun moves on Aries signs to between 21 March to 20 April while the Sun moves on Pisces sign between this period as per Hindu Astrology. Example -: The position of sun as per Niryana system on 21 March 2002 at 5.30 am (1S.T.) is 11S 6° - 18 -.46" In order to get sayana position of the Sun, add Ayanamsa of this year to Nirayana position of the Sun. Ayanamsa (K.P. - 2002) - 23° - 46'- 56” 11S 6°-18'-46" + 23° 46' 56" 29° 64' 102' Or OS 0°-5'-42"20 The Times Horary Astrology A Noval Approach to Predictions Conversion Formula is - i. Sayana position of the planet - Ayanamsa of that year= Niryana position ii. Niryana position of the planet + Ayanamsa of the year = Sayana position 3. What*is Ayanamsa? In Western Astrology or Sayana system for the calculations of constellations & planets an imaginary constant point is conceived. This constant point never changes. Therefore the position of constellations & planets also do not change. The distance between this constant point and vernal equinox (The beginning point of Aries sign) is called Ayanamsa. The tropical & sidereal point coincides in 285 A.D. On 22 March 285 A.D. The tropical and sidereal point were the samei.e. 180°-00'-03". As per late K.S. Krishnamurti the tropical & sidereal point were same in 291 A.D. Therefore, there is a difference of six minutes between the Ayanamsa of N.C. Lahari and that of Krishnamurti. Horoscope prepared onthe basis of K.P. must strictly follow Ayanamsa as propounded by late Krishnamurti. 4, What is Day -: The sunrise to next sunrise is termed as day in traditional astrology while in civil time the day changes after 12,00 Midnight. Example-: A baby is born at 3.00 midnight on dated 3 March 2002. The Sun rises at 6.45 amon 3 March 2002 and at 6.46 am on 4 March 2002. As per traditional astrology the date of birth of this baby is 3 March while as per civil time the date of birth of the newly born baby is 4 March. In Horary astrology always take civil time because day is one of the important ruling planets. 5. House or Bhava and Cusp-: According to Indian astrology the Zodiac is divided into twelve parts. Each part is called house or Bhava. The longitude of Zodiac is 360°. Therefore each partImportant Nomenclatures and explanati ons 21 is of thirty degree in longitude. The word cusp though signifies a house yet it has different meaning from general sense of a house or Bhava. Cusp is actually the beginning point of a house. The beginning point of a house .is considered to be very influential as well as powerful. This is generally a western concept and quite scientific in nature. In Placidus system of house division each Bhava or House Varies in longitude. A particular Bhava may be of thirty degree or more or less from thirty degree but the total of 12 cusps or houses will always be three hundred sixty degrees in longitude. 6. Transit or Gochara -: The entrance of the planet into the sign is called transit or Gochara. The Transit effect of the planets is studied in respect to the position of moon at the time of birth. Now a days many astrologers read transit results in respect to Ascendant. 7. Which house signify Father -: Few Astrologers read results pertaining to father from tenth house. The logic behind is that since fourth house denotes mother therefore seventh to fourth house is tenth house. However many astrologers assign ninth house to father. We take ninth house as the seat of father. In Horary questions pertaining to father always take ninth house for judgment. 8. Constellation -: There are 27 constellations. Though one more constellation i.e. Abhijeet find place among the constellations but it is not used. Each constellation measures 13° - 20' or 800 minutes in longitude. These 27 constellations are divided among nine planets. Each planet consists of 2% stars or 9 Padas. These 27 constellations are further divided into 249 parts and each part is called sub lord. 9, Sub lord -: The 27 constellations were divided into 249 parts. Each part is called sub lord. It was the valuable contribution of Laté KS. Krishnamurti to Astro-world. How this sub lord is worked out and what it signifies has been explained at appropriate place? 10. Ruling Planets -: It is also an innovation of KP. Inorder2 The Times Horary Astrology A Noval Approach to Predictions to reach the timing of any event ruling planets are most helpful. With the help of Ruling planets one can pin point the event with correct date & time. 11. Significators -: It is also the new concept. Significators signify the matter in question. In fact the Signif icators hypothesis rest on the use of constellations lord in predictive astrology.3. Importance of Horary Astrology TT utility of any science, whether it is astrology or any other subject lies in the fact what the society in general gets benefit of it. If any subject which ceases to yield benefic results to society it becomes obsolete in due course of time. Time is an important factor in astrology. In fact Astrology cannot be imagined without time. Therefore, in some sacred texts time is declared to be God. Horary astrology has greater utility than natal astrology in today's fast changing world. 1. Almost in all the horoscopes time is not recorded correctly. This error lies in the fact that even two watches in the same room do not show identical time. When a baby is born either in hospital or in a nursing home the watch in the labour room is un-identical to the watches of the parents waiting outside the labour room. The difference between watches may range from four minutes to eight minutes. The Minute difference of three to four minutes changes sub lord of cusp which ultimately changes the reading of entire nativity. 2.The principles governing natal astrology cannot be verified easily. Whereas predictions made in horary astrology may be verified within hour, days or months because query is always related to coming days or months. Therefore, horary astrology is the best method for carry out research in the field of Astrology. 3. Horary astrology works on certain proved principles. B24 ‘The Times Horary Astrology A Noval Approach to Predictions The significations of planets and houses can be easily ascertained. There are many significations of planets and houses but the particular signification of a particular planet or house is only known with the help of horary astrology. 4. Pin point prediction devoid of double meaning sense could be possible only in horary astrology. In horary astrology the answer is given either in Yes or No. Apart that horary astrology gives the exact date and time for the fructification of any event, which is never possible in Natal astrology. 5. Day to day events like arrival of friend, light gone when will come back, rumor is false or true, reservation of berth in train is possible or not, love affairs will materialize or not, etc can be answered only by the horary astrology. 6. Horary astrology has greater utility when question pertaining to wining or losing of three or four persons who are in election fray comes up. Horary astrology deals effectively with such questions. 7. Horary astrology is also helpful in deciding bride & bridegrooms among the list. It not only clearly & effectively decides but also gives precise judgment about the character and nature of bride & bridegroom.4 Brief Description of Ancient Text Books of Horary Astrology T: principles enunciated in traditional text book on horary astrology can not be branded as whole thing in general. It should be admitted candidly that progress made in recent times in astrology is the out come of serious work on traditional books. Therefore the importance of tra- ditional astrology can neither be rninimized nor overlooked. The principles found in old books are cosmopolitan in nature and deep study of these principles reveals unfailing predictions. Today in fastmoving word it is not possible to give much time and energy to study these principles and majority of astrologers need easily remembered, research proved and least time consuming formula which could be applied even while moving on a busy road. For the benefit of the readers of this book, translations of few old books on horary astrology have been made. Prasna Gyana -: 1. Bhattotpala is the author of this book and work commences with the bowing of all the planets(Sloka - 1) 2. Horary astrology never fails boldly declared by Bhattotpala.

All undertakings show failure if tenth house is occupied by a malefic planet. If malefic planets are - conjoined with benefic planets in above said conditions then malefic planets create obstacles while benefic planets remove obstacles and give auspicious results. (Sloka - 14) 10. If horary ascendant falls in fixed sign viz., Taurus, Leo, Scorpio or Aquarius the querent will not be defeated.

Efforts of the querent are crowned with success if ascendant or Moon is aspected by benefic planets. The aspect of malefic planets indicate failures. (Sloka - 2) 3. The enemy will go back without battle if malefic planets are placed in fifth and sixth houses. The enemy is defeated if fourth honse is occupied by benefic planets. (Sloka - 3) 4. The arrival of enemy is doubtful if ascendant happens to be in movable sign and moon in immovable sign. But if ascendant falls in immovable sign and moon in movable sign, it is the indication of arrival of enemy. (Sloka - 4) 5. The enemy comes half way and go back if moon occupies movable sign and ascendant falls in mutual sign.34 The Times Horary Astrology A Noval Approach to Predictions The opposition of above condition ensures battle in which both the parties suffer losses. (Sloka - 8) 6.The enemy speedily moves forward if ascendant falls in movable sign and the sun or Saturn or Mercury or Venus is posited in ascendant, The enemy has not moved if above said planets are in retrograde motion. (Sloka - 9) 7.The arrival of enemy is indicated if the Sun and Moon are placed in fourth house. The enemy returns quickly if Mercury or Jupiter or Venus is placed in fourth house. (Sloka-11) 8. The planet in strength be determined and also ascertain its placement in a particular Bhava.

If planet in strength is placed in movable Navamsa the calculation as applied in Sloka 14 will be taken as it is. The time will be just double whatis mentioned in Sloka 14 if planet in strength is placed in fixed Navamsa. The time will be triple if planet in strength is placed in mutual sign. _ (Sloka - 15) 10. The person gone to far off places will return if the lord of seventh house is retrograde or about to retrograde. (Slola-16) Chapter - Third 1. Both the parties will come to an agreement if benefic planet is placed in either ascendant or eleventh house or twelfth house. The battle will take place if malefic planet is placed in mutual sign. Both the parties will come to an agreement and the battle is converted into treaty if ascendant or fourth or seventh or tenth house is occupied by benefic planets and aspected by benefic planets. The battle will continue if angular houses are occupied by malefic planets and aspected by malefic planets. (Sloka - 34) 2. The enemy will go back quickly if both occupy by either Jupiter or Venus or second or third house. The same ruleBrief Description of Ancient Text Books of Horary Astrology 35 also applies for the person who has gone to far off places will return soon. , (Sloka - 5) Chapter - Fourth 1. The native attains his first ambition if malefic planets are not placed in 14,78 and tenth hpuse and benefic planets are placed in 14,5.79 and 10th houses. The opposite condition indicates adverse results. (Sloka - 1) 2. The native will get success if benefic planets are placed either in third or fifthor sixth or eleventh or twelfthhouse.

The aim behind the translations of these texts is to make readers familiar with the knowledge of different principles so that they could understand the basic nature of planets & signs. Only those shlokas have been translated which have been found to be useful to readers. Readers may take long time to verify the practicality of the principles. But these principles can provide adequate knowledge about the nature & behavior of the planets as well as signs and may be applied in solving day-to-day problems of horary astrology. AboveBrief Description of Ancient Text Books of Horary Astrology 41 principles can also be used in K. P. astrology. It will not only enhance the quality of horary astrology but also make it refined and rectified. I too have found few principles to be absolutely correct. For example Uttarkalamratam Sloka 10 states that result of the question is obtained shortly if the lord of the house concerned with query is exalted. Similarity Shatpanchasika chapter | Sloka 5 states that lost article is recovered if moon in ascendant is aspected by Jupiter & Venus, Both examples have been found to be correct in many cases. It is humbly requested to readers that the foundation of astrology lies in the permutation & combination of lights. If astrologers give logic in the explanation of any combination of planets then the mystery of planets can be revealed. In foregoing examples Sloka 5 of Shatpanchasika chapter 1 states that lost articles will be recovered if ascendant with moon is aspected by Jupiter & Venus. The Logic behind is that moon & ascendant both are aspected by two most benefic planets viz. Jupiter & Venus. Both the Lagans i.e. moon & Lagna are under the influence of most benefic planets. As [have said above that astrology is the permutation & combination of lights and Thus the impact of lights emanating from various planets is studied in astrology. Whenever planet comes ata particular degree in space many important events take place. The research should be made on such particular degrees attained by planets during their motion in zodiac.Signif ications of Planets & Signs the Sun -: The Sun is the significator of soul, represents father of the native and a source of divine knowledge. The Sun is known as kroor Graha, means intensity to results. Following significations are ascertained from the Sun particularily in horary astrology. 1. went awesyvn 10. Il. 12. Father, Relationship with father, longevity of father Popularity and degree of popularity Service High post in service Ministership ML.A., M.P. Governor Eldest son Eye sight Inter caste marriage Constitution President Moon -: Moon is very important planet in horary astrology. Moon is the significator of mind. Therefore it reveals the immediate condition of mind. Non co-relation between query and the position of moon in horary chart 42Significations of Planets & Signs 43 indicates insincere attempt to test the knowledge of the astrologer. The natural and sincere desire to know the result of horary question absolutely gives pinpointed correct results. The moon assumes greater significance in horary astrology therefore its study from various angles is necessary. These are the following significations of moon: (i) Mind, (ii) Mother, (iii) Water, (iv) Ups & down (v) Imagination, (vi) Dream, (vii) Daughter, (viii) Gains, Through, women, (ix) Change & changeability, (x) Happy family life, (xi) Sea Voyages (xii) Brain (xiii) Young girl (xiv) Rains, (xvi) Flood, (xvii) Milk etc. Mars -* Mars is predominantly significator of energy.

Rahu & Ketu -: Indian astrology does not assign any particular signification to Rahu and Ketu. Rahu, generally denotes thief, jail and Jailor. Ketu shows liberation or final emancipation. Rahu & Ketu have got special attention and importance in horary astrology. Therefore, appropriate discussion on Rahu & Ketu have been included for the benefit of the readers at appropriate place. Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto -: Westerners have done a lot of research on these planets. Though late Krishnamurti had advocated the distinct effect of these planets yet he himself did not take into account their impact on human beings. I too personally have not verified their impact on human behaviour and nature. Therefore nothing is written here about these planets. Signs -: Krishnamurti Paddhati has not given much importance to the signs. However this unique link of astrology as a whole can neither be under estimated nor overlooked in any way because it is primary determinant to the strength of any planet. Secondly in various questions of horary astrology viz. theft, marriage ete direction of materialization of event is indicated by the signs.

Each equal part is called house or Bhava. Each Bhava or house measures 30° in longitude. Thus 30 x 12 = 360°. Thus the entire zodiac is 360° in longitude. Krishnamurti Paddhati has used the word ‘cusp! for a particular Bhava akin to the concept advocated by western astrologers. Cusp is actually the beginning point of a house. KP. advocates the birth chart or horary chart to be cast on Placidus system. Placidus system encompasses unequal house division in sharp contrast to equal division as propounded by ancient Indian Astrology. In Placidus system a cusp or house varies from other house in longitudes i.e. a particular Bhava may be of thirty degrees or less than thirty degrees or more than thirty degrees.

Each constellation is 13° - 20' or 800 minutes in longitude. Each constellation is divided into 4 quarters or pads. Each sign or Rasi consists of 2% constellations i.e. 9 pads. Each sign or Rasi_ = 30° or 30x60 = 1800 min. Each quarter of constellations= 3°- 20 or (3 x 60) + 20 = 200 minutes Each sign consists of 9 quarter of constellation i.e. 200x9 = 1800 min. Each constellation has four quarters, Therefore 27 constellations will have 27 x 4 = 108 quarters. These 108 quarters have further been divided into 249 parts. Each sub divided Part is called sub lord. For example Aries sign consists of 4 quarter of Ashwini star, 4 quarters of Bharni star and one quarter of Krittika star. Ashwani star is ruled by Ketu and have been allotted 7 years out of 120 years of Vimshottari dasha pattern. Ashwani star is 13° - 20 or 800 min. in longitude. Now 800 min of ashwini star are further divided in respect to 7 years of Ketu. The result obtained is called sub or sub lord of Ketu. How to work out sub lord -: Sun = 800x6/120 = 40 min Moon = 800x10/120 = 66.66 min 5960 ‘The Times Horary Astrology A Noval Approach to Predictions Mars = 800x7/120 = 46-40" Rahu = 800x 18/120 = 120 min or 2° - 0' Jupiter = 800x 16/120 = 106.66 min or 1° - 46" - 40" Saturn = 800x19/]20 = 126.66 min or 2° - 6' - 40" Mercury = 800x17/120 = 113.33 min or 1° - 53' - 20" Ketu = 800x7/ 120 = 46’ - 40" Venus = 800x20/120 = 133.33 min or 2° - 13'- 20" Ashwani is the first constellation of Aries sign ruled by Ketu. Therefore the first sub will be of Ketu followed by Venus, Sun etc, It could be understood as, in Jupiter Mahadasha and Ketu antardasa the first pratyantara dasa will be of Ketu, second belongs to Venus and so on. Sub lord can also be assumed to be pratyantara lord. Example I- Aries signconsists of four quarters of ashwini star 0° - 0' to 3° - 20' -Ist quarter 3° -20' to 6° - 40' - nnd quarter 6° - 40’ to 10° - 0' - Il rd quarter 10° - 0' to 13° - 20' - IV th quarter 1n sub lord calculations the first quarter of ashwini which extends from0° - 0' to 3° - 20' has been divided. Now first quarter that is ruled by Ketu as per traditional astrology is now divided into 3 parts that are successively ruled by Ketu, Venus and Sun. 0° - 0' + 46" - 40" (sub extension of Ketu) = 0° - 46' 40" * Ketu 0° - 46' - 40" + 2° - 13'- 20" (sub extension of Venus) = 3°-0'- 0"=Venus 3° - 0'- 0" + 40' (sub extension of sun) = 3° - 40' - 0" - Sun When any planet or cusp falls in between these longitude in Aries sign will have sub lord as per extension it has got as per above calculation.Sub Lord 61 Example - 2 Aries sign - Bharni star (13° - 20' to 26° - 40’) Bharni star - 13° - 20'- 16° - 40' = Ist quarter 13° - 20' + 2° - 13'- 20 " = 15° - 33' - 20" = Venus 15° - 33'- 20" + 0'- 40' - 0' = 16° - 13'- 20" = Sun 16° - 13'- 20" + 1° - 6'- 40" = 17° - 20'-0" = Moon After adding the value of other sub lords the extension of other sub lords is determined. It means if any planet moves or cusp falls between 16°- 13'- 20" to 17° - 20' - 0" in Aries sign will have moon as its sub lord. Comments -: The concept of sub-lord is the out come of research carried over decades by late Krishnamurti. It is positive out come and has universal applications. The principles enumerated in traditional astrology have their own utility without an iota of doubt. But such principles cannot be applied to know the event of day-to-day activities and miserably fail to answer the questions like light gone when it will come back? Son gone to school when he will return? When and which time result of examination will be declared? There are many more questions pertaining to day to day life can be answered positively with the help of sub Jord theory. It is an innovative discovery of astrology which has given scientific approach to astrology and this is no doubt a discovery equals to miracle.
