GUIDELINES FOR PREPARING AND
JUDGING A HOHARY CHART
AS PER K.P. SYSTEM OR K.P. PRINCIPLES By: K.P.KUPPU GANAPATHI, TFAS, ASTROLOGER (K.P) G/12, SECOND FLOOR, DDA SFS FLATS, POCKET-2, NILGIRI APARTMENTS, (BEHIND SARASWATHI BAL MANDIR) NARAINA VIHAR, NEW DELHI - 110028. PHONE: 011-2579 4140. MO: 98102 47160 Email ID: [email protected] RADHE KRISHNA One of the most potent tools in the hands of any Astrologer is HORARY OR PRASNA. In THIS branch of Astrology OUR GREAT GURUJI, JYOTISH MARTHAND, JYOTISH MANNAN LATE SRI K.S.KRISHNAMURTHIJI, the inventor of the ADVANCED SYSTEM OF STELLAR ASTROLOGY CALLED K.P. has CREATED a new method to attain perfection in predicting events through HIS System. I am one of HIS fortunate students who had heard him in person teaching HIS System. He also occupied the Chair in Astrology in BARATHIYA VIDYA BHAVAN. For the benefit of all Astrologers in general and Astrologers practicing KP in particular, I venture to write about THIS unique system of HIS with HIS blessings from above. 1. CASTING A HORARY CHART:- For casting a Horary Chart take the commencing position of the Sub of the Horary number as the NIRAYANA ASCENDANT. This Cuspal position of the Ascendant remains the same irrespective of the year or the locality where the CHART is cast. 2. For ascertaining the Cusps of other houses, take the LATITUDE where the Astrologer judges the chart irrespective of the place from which the Query has been raised, either by phone, letter, Email, telegram etc., and the Chart is to be prepared as per THE PLACIDIUS SYSTEM OF HOUSE DIVISION as advised by our GURUJI LATE SRI K.S.KRISHNAMURTHIJI with the help of UNIVERSAL TABLE OF HOUSES OR K.P.TABLE OF HOUSES AND MAHABALA EPHEMERIS and other Tables required for erecting the Chart correctly as advised by him. This is for those who prepare the Chart manually. Those who have computers can prepare the Chart with the help of Software prepared by Sri A.R.Raichur of Bombay or Sri Rangarajan of Man Machine Systems, Chennai. 3. If the HORARY CHAT is likely to be judged immediately after casting then the position of Planets is to be worked out for the time when the Chart is taken for casting, In all other cases the position of Planets should be worked out only for the time when the Astrologer commences analyzing the chart. I would like to make one point clear in respect of those Astrologers who have KP Charts computer package. In their cases they should remember that unless they are in a position to analyze the Chart immediately after getting a print out of the Chart with all details of the Significators, Aspects, Dasas etc., they should not cast the Chart and keep it and attend to some other job thinking that the Chart has been prepared for the correct time as desired by them and therefore they can take time to leisurely judge them. In their case also the same rule that applies to others who cast Charts manually applies i.e., unless they are in a position to analyze the chart immediately don't feed the data in the computer and get the print out of the Chart with other data mentioned above. 4. The query may be for the Querist himself or for some relative or friend. If the query is for himself make all calculations from Lagna. If it is for younger Brother or Sister, take the 3rd house counted from the Lagna in the Horary Chart as Ascendant and work out. If it relates to Mother, take the 4th as Ascendant. For the Sons and Daughters of the Querist take 5th' for Wife or Partner in business take 7th, for Father take 9th, for elder Brother or Sister, for Friend etc., take 11th and for any unknown persons take 9th as Ascendant and work out. 5. After the chart is cast, the first job is to check whether the chart reflects the mind of the Querist. For this check what MOON the Planet that controls the thought process and mind, represents by virtue of houses owned and occupied by it, whether its star and Sub Lords are connected with the houses relevant to the query raised. Experience confirms that a connection by Sub Lordship is very important. 6. ASCENDANT also reflects the Mind of the Querist, since it stands for both the Querist himself and also the query put by him. Whatever matters the Ascendant Sub Lord signifies, that is what the Querist would like to know. So ascertain which houses are signified by the Ascendant Sub lord and what relevancy they have to the question raised. 7. WHETHER THE MATTER IS PROMISSED:- The main purpose of HORARY is to get a direct answer to the query raised and therefore unless the matter is promised there is no point in proceeding further. Therefore only when the query is properly reflected by the disposition of MOON and/or ASCENDANT SUB-LORD, the case is to be examined whether the matter is promised or not. In this connection I would like the readers to keep in mind PUNARPOO DOSHA before coming to any conclusion on this matter. While examining a Horary Chart this will be discussed in detail, if necessary. 8. For finding out whether the matter queried will materialize or not, consider the 11th Cusp and find out whether the 11th Cusp Sub Lord is either RETROGRADE or deposited in the Constellation whose Lord is RETROGRADE. If the Sub Lord himself is retrograde then the event will materialize with delay. But if it is posited in the Constellation of a Planet that is retrograde then the event will not materialize at all. On the other hand if the Sub-Lord and Lord of the Constellation in which this Sub Lord is posited are in direct motion and if the same Sub Lord is also a significator of either 11th or at least any one of the concerned houses relevant to the query in question then the event is promised. FULFILMENT OF ALL THESE THREE CONDITIONS i.e., i) Sub Lord should not be retrograde ii) Sub Lord should not be in the Constellation of a Planet in retrograde and iii) the Sub-Lord should signify 1Ith or any one of the houses relevant to the Query, IS A MUST to give an affirmative answer to the query raised. If ANY ONE Of THEM IS NOT FULFILLED, THEN THE EVENT WILL NOT HAPPEN. 9. Another method to ascertain whether an event will materialize or not is to check whether the CUSPAL SUB LORD of the main house is the significator of the main or any of the Subsidiary house(s) or the 11th house. For example for foreign travel Sub Lord of the 12th Cusp (Main house) must be a significator of either 9 (long journey) or III (Change or movement from residence) or 12th - change of environment itself. For marriage the 7th Cusp Sub Lord should signify either 2, 7 or 11 etc., 10.WHETHER CHANGE IS BENEFICIAL OR NOT? Very often the consultants ask whether the change is going to be beneficial or not. For this ascertain whether the 11th Cusp Sub Lord signifies the concerned houses. For example, if the XI Cusp Sub Lord signifies 2nd house (finance) the change will be good financially (increase in family members i.e., birth of children, beneficial to all the other relatives of the Querist since 2nd indicates all relatives irrespective of any particular relationship such as, Wife, Children, Father, Mother, Sisters etc., etc., But if it signifies 12th to 2nd i.e. Ascendant or 1st house, it will indicate negation or worsening of the financial position, negating birth of children etc., if other considerations also agree i.e., if 5th or 11th Cusp Sub Lord gives similar indications. Some K.P. Astrologers have opined that the Ascendant will not negate financial matters. But from my personal opinion and experience I have found that the Ascendant does affect the financial matters. The rest I leave it to the readers. 11.The Sub Lord of a Planet denotes whether that Planet is auspicious for the progress of the Bhava or inauspicious for the Bhava signified by the Planet. If the Sub Lord is not in a favourable position then the Querist meets with obstacles, faces disappointment or negation of the matter. 12. For ascertaining the Bhadhakasthana while judging Longevity or health remember that if the Ascendant is in a movable Sign, (MESHA, KATAKA, THULAM AND MAKARA) the 11th house is the Bhadakasthan, if it (Ascendant) is in a FIXED SIGN (RISHABHA, SIMHA, VRISCHIKA AND KUMBA) 9th house is the Bhadakasthan and finally if the Ascendant is in a COMMON SIGN (MITHUNA, KANYA, DHANUS AND MEENA) 7th house is the Bhadhakasthana. 13. HOW TO JUDGE A CHART? The first step in this direction is to identify correctly the houses which have a bearing on the fructification of a query, e.g., MARRIAGE 2,7,11- BUILDING A HOUSE 4, 11, 12 - EMPLOYMENT 2, 6, 10 and 11 etc., etc., and the Significators of these houses. The Significators are to be graded as 1st. 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th strictly according to K.P. Method. How this grading is done will be explained when I take up a Chart for analyzation. 14. RAHU AND KETHU should be included as Significators if they are conjoined with/aspected by the Significators or tenanted in the house of Significators. 15. For identifying the Lordship of a house, it should be remembered that OWNER Of A HOUSE IS THE OWNER OF THE SIGN WHERE THE CUSP FALLS. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND IN K.P. 16. SELECTION OF FRUITFUL SIGNIFICATORS: The accuracy of prediction depends entirely on the CORRECT selection of the Significators for the event. Therefore we should find out which of the Significators of the relevant houses as selected under K.P. are really beneficial and which of them are only tempters. Many a time many Planets and even all the 9 Planets become the Significators and in such cases the beneficial Significators amongst them are to he found out after weeding out others. THIS is really a very difficult task even for a very seasoned and experienced K.P. Astrologer and all failures in prediction result only on account of wrong selection of FRUITFUL Significators. The various methods of selecting fruitful or beneficial Significators are explained below. 17. The MOST reliable and easy method is to select the fruitful Significators with the help of the wonderful RULING PLANETS invented by our GREAT GURUJI JYOTISH MARTHAND, JYOTISH MANNAN, PROF: LATE SHRI K.S.KRISHNAMURTHIJI. At this stage the GOLDEN WORDS of our GREAT GURUJI SHOULD ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED - I quote- " THE RULING PLANETS AT THE TIME OF QUERY WOULD BE THE RULING PLANETS AT THE TIME OF FRUCTIFICATION OF THE EVENT EXPECTED" unquote. Therefore, Significators which are in common with the Ruling Planets and the FRUITFUL Significators for the event in question are to be selected under this method if one is to get the correct result. 18. In order of MERIT AND STRENGTH, in the descending order, the following Planets are regarded as the RULING PLANETS. 1. ASCENDANT OR LAGNA STAR LORDS. 2. ASCENDANT SIGN LORD 3. MOOR STAR LORD 4. MOON SIGN LORD 5. DAY LORD The above are only treated as Ruling Planets by GURUJI. Later on many researchers have revealed that ASCNDANT SUB LORD AND MOON SUB LORD should also be included as Ruling Planets. THIS is quite in consonance with the Sub Theory of our GREAT GURUJI and thousands of Astrologers and Great Scholars in K.P. by taking these Sub Lords also as Ruling Planets have given innumerable accurate predictions. Therefore when we include these two Sub Lords i.e., Ascendant Sub Lord and Moon Sub Lords they take precedence over the Ascendant Star Lord and Moon Star Lord in the meriting. If need be Sub-Sub Lords also can be taken as RPs. This is left to individual Astrologers based on their experience. Apart from the above any Planet Aspected by the above selected Ruling Planets and are in the Sign, Star or Sub of any of the Ruling Planets can be included as Ruling Planets - BOTH THE CONDITIONS BEING SATISFIED SIMULTANEOUSLY. Here I would like to make the following comments with regard to RULING PLANETS. There is a practice to work out the Ruling Planets at the time of commencement of reading the Chart or even when the chart is prepared. THIS is quite contrary to what GURUJI was insisting in HIS lectures/writings. I quote HIS words - ' RULING PLANETS ARE THE DIVINE GUIDE TO AN ASTROLOGER AND THEIR HELP SHOULD BE SOUGHT ONLY WHEN THERE IS AN URGE TO DECIDE THE SIGNIFICATORS WHO CAN BRING OUT THE EVENT QUERIED AND NOT FOR THE MOMENT AT WHICH THE WORKING OF THE HORARY CHART IS TAKEN IN HAND OR WHEN JUDGING THE CHART FOR THE EVENT AFTER THE CHART HAS BEEN WORKED OUT COMPLETELY WITH ALL SIGNIFICATORS ETC., ' unquote. This condition applies equally to all those Astrologers who use Computer package for preparing the Chart. 19. One should not accept these RULING PLANETS as it is. Check whether any of them is posited either in the Constellation or Sub of a Retrograde Planet. If there is any reject them and accept the remaining. 20.SUN AND MOON never retrograde. Similarly RAHU AND KETU never retrograde even though their normal movement itself is in opposite direction. Thus only MARS, JUPITER, VENUS AND SATURN will retrograde. 21.The SECOND METHOD for selecting fruitful Significators is to take the CUSP SUB LORD of the concerned houses and see which of the Significators are posited in their Constellation. Those Significators who are in the stars of such Cusp Sub Lords can be taken straightaway as fruitful one. The rest can be dropped or eliminated by further process. 22. The THIRD METHOD of selecting fruitful Significators is to find out whether its Sub Lord is one of the Significators. If yes it can be included or else dropped. 23. As a GENERAL RULE all those Significators which signify 12th to the relevant houses under scrutiny should be rejected. Similarly Planets which are in 6, 8, 12 to the concerned houses also do not contribute to the matters signified by such houses. Similarly any house which are in 6, 8 and 12 to any house are considered to negate the affairs influenced by the house concerned. 24. A Planet which appears a larger number of times amongst the Significators/RULINGPLANETS or who is connected with various Significators as their Constellation or Sign or as a Sub-Lord should be taken as THE STRONGEST. Conversely a Planet which is not in the Sub of Lords of the concerned houses should be treated as WEAKEST in producing the result though may qualify itself as a significator after passing through all the elimination processes. 25. Significators that are in the Sub of Planets occupying houses negating the Houses concerned i.e. in the 12th to the houses concerned should be rejected as unfruitful Significators. 26. RAHU AND KETU that are NODES give results as follows: i) First give results of Planets with which they are conjoined, ii) Second as Planets Aspecting them, iii) Third as Planets in whose star they are deposited, iv) Fourth as Planets in whose signs they are tenanted. NOTE: - 1. Some prefer to take the Node as representing the Planet in whose Sign they are tenanted, under the third step indicated above. THIS has been given in KP readers in both the ways and therefore I leave it to the readers to decide this themselves based on their experience in handling Horary Charts where Rahu and Kethu play a decisive role in giving results. 2.Nodes do not Aspect any Planet or any house since they are only the sensitive and powerful intersecting points in the pathway of Sun and Moon and they are not having any physical body which can be seen through a telescope as we can see all the other Planets. THIS is the reason why they are called SHADOWY PLANETS. 27. When the Nodes appear as a RULING PLANTS/SIGNIFICATORS its Sign Lord is replaced by it AND IN CASE THE SIGN LORD ITSELF DOES NOT QUALIFY TO BECOME SIGNIFICATORS THEN THE NODES HAVE ALSO TO BE DROPPED AS SIGNIFICATORS. I WOULD LIKE THE READERS TO UNDERSTAND THIS VERY CLEARLY AND IF AND WHEN I DISCUSS A HORARY CHART later on, THIS POINT, IF APPLICABLE WILL BE EXPLAINED CLEARLY. I would like to make it clear here that in case the Sign Lord is also a powerful significator there is no need to replace it but it can be taken along with the Node. 28. It should be remembered that the RULING PLANTS have a definite bearing over the EVENT. If the SIGN LORD AND STAR LORD OF SUN ARE ALSO COMMON AMONGST THE ALREADY SELECTED FRUITFUL SIGNIFICATORS AND THE RULING PLANETS, then Sun's Star and Sign Lords become STRONGEST to offer result according to their disposition. 29. TIMING OF EVENT: THIS is the greatest hurdle that even the advanced practitioners in K.P. could not come to grips, at times. Therefore the technique for this can be mastered only by experience over a long period of time. However a few useful tips are given below. 30.An event will materialise during the conjoined period of the selected Significators especially when the Luminaries (SUN AND MOON) transit through their ZONES indicated by these Planets. 31.When the event is expected in: a) Few hours from the time of judgement of the Horary Chart, move the Ascendant i.e., Lagna to the sensitive Zone of the Significators. b) In a few days time move Moon to the sensitive zone of the Significators. c) In a few months time, move Sun to the sensitive ZONES of the Significators d) If after a year or more then move JUPITER to the sensitive ZONE of the Significators. In case the event is likely to happen within a few hours from the time of judgement of the Horary Chart, find the Lagna i.e., Ascendant that is rising at the time of judgement. Then which is next to rise and so on. Then that wing of ZONE that is governed by one of the selected Significators should have the Star governed by another strong significator. In that one has to find out when the third significator becomes the Sub-Lord. When this position in that Sign would rise in the East or transited by Moon or Sun, as the case may be, the event will materialize. 32. But in case the event is expected to materialize in Days, Months or after a Year, then that date and time should be taken when the Moon, Sun or Jupiter as the case may be transits in that Sign, Star and Sub. 33. IN HORARY CHARTS, Planets in retrograde motion can't give results as long as they are retrograde. However, if a retrograde Planet is deposited in the Constellation of a Planet that is in direct motion, then this indicates that the matter will materialize with some delay and obstacles. The matter will materialize when the Planet assumes direct motion and passes beyond the longitude wherefrom retrograde motion started. Some KP Scholars and Astrologers have been writing that retrogression of Planets in Horary Charts have no effect and they have found to give results even when they are in the Star and Sub of retrograde Planets. But our GREAT GURUJI has categorically stated in HIS lectures and writings that retrograde Planets do not give results if they come as Star/Sub Lords to the Significators. But in my opinion the LAST WORD on this point is yet to be said and therefore this will require constant and continuous research for a number of years to come to any Definite conclusion on this ticklish issue. Till that time, in my humble opinion, we should follow our GURUJI'S principles only in this regard. 34. If Planets 'A' and 'B' in their periods give a result, then the Planet in 6 or 8 or 12 to 'A' and 'B' will give the diametrically opposite results. For example if one joins service during 'A' Dasa 'B' Bukthi, then he will lose the job or leave it during 'C Bukthi, if '€' is in 6, 8 or 12 to 'A' and 'B' and forms evil aspect with 'A' and 'B'. The Dasa, Bukthi and Anther mentioned here are the one running in the Horary Chart under examination. 35. Whenever one wants to find out the day of an event in any Bukthi and Anthra, one is to note whether the Lord of the Bukthi and Anthra are strong or the Lord of the Constellation. The Lord of the Constellation, if stronger, will give the result only on its day. 36. For finding out a particular date, the transit of the selected fruitful Significators should also he scrutinized. They should be transiting in the Constellation and Sub of the Significators. 37. If the XI Sub Lord happens to be one of the strong Significators, then an event can materialize in its Sub-period. 38. If the XI house is occupied by fast moving Planets such as Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, Venus or if the Lord of the XI, (if there is no occupant in it) are the above Planets then the event queried will materialize within a short period. If on the other hand either the occupant of XI or Lord of XI is a slow moving Planet such as Saturn, Jupiter, Rahu and Kethu, then the event will not materialize in short time but will take a long time. (However in practice it is seen that this rule is not always correct) 39.GENERAL In case the Sub Lord of the Horary Number happens to rule the Constellation in which Moon is posited at the time of query the answer will he affirmative to the question. (However in experience it is seen that this rule also never operates always) 40. It is often useful to scrutinise what the RULING PLANETS signify, their aspects with the Cusp Cusp Lords and other Planets. How far they promise good result for some Bhava or affect the result of other Bhavas. 41. THE NATURE OF PLANETS SHOULD INVARIABLY BE KEPT IN VIEW, For example. Sun stands for Govt., Ketu/Mars for quick grasping, Jupiter for law and judgement. Moon for Liquids, Mars for Engineering and Saturn for metal 42.A Planet in whose star there is no other Planet is the strongest to give the result of the house of whose significator it is. THIS APPLIES VERY STRONGLY TO CUSP SUB LORDS. 43.The above are only general guidelines. In practice it is found that Planets behave very peculiarly - they give result even when in retrograde/in the Constellation or Sub of retrograde Planets. Only if we have some in-sight knowledge about the Astronomical aspect of Astrology we can understand more fully such phenomen 44. ASTROLOGY is a continuing science. THIS is the reason why GURUJI himself has invited Scholars of Astrology to study HIS System well and after thorough research, further advance HIS System. Thus the K.P. System is NOT A STATIC ONE where the FINAL CHAPTER has been written. It is left to the K.P. Scholars and Astrologers to dive further deep into this K.P. SYSTEM invented by OUR GREATGURUJIJYOTISHMARTHAND,JYOTISHMANN AN,PROF:LATESRIK.S.KRISHNAMURTHIJI, of course, WITHOUT LOOSING GRIP ON THE FUNDAMENTALS OF SUB LORD AND RULING PLANET THEORY and bring out gems so that posterity may be benefited. 45. Apart from what I have given above as guidelines there are many hurdles that are to be crossed before one can come into grips of handling a Horary Chart. These can be understood only by handling a Horary Chart, examine it thoroughly, give the prediction and find out whether the prediction given has come true at least upto the date, if not check where a mistake has been committed or which principles have not been followed resulting in the wrong prediction, gain experience and finally apply this GREAT THEORY for the benefit of mankind.
