      NOTES

1.Jātaka Pārijāta, authored by Vaidyanātha Dīkṣita c. AD 1500.

2.Brahmā Prajāpati crowned the Sun as Lord of Planets.

3.Kṣatriya = those who defend or are capable of punishing wrongdoers.

4.Sattwika: one of three gunas (or states of matter). Sattwika is thought to be pure and without defect, promoting non-attachment to worldly desires.

5.Atma is ‘soul’ or sustainer of consciousness; it is considered eternal.

6.Within the hierarchy of planets, Sûrya is noted to harbour malefic tendencies yet still ministers to the Devas in some capacity.

7.Of this multitude seven are of prime importance; these are Susumna, Harikeśa, Viśvakarman, Viśvavyacas, Sannaddha, Sarvāvasu and Svarāt. Of these, Susumna brightens horizons and flourishes in southern regions. Harikeśa is the source and substance of Nakshatras, brightening their appearance in the east. To the south, Viśvakarman is seen as the origination of Budha (Mercury), to the west Viśvavyacas is the origination of Shukra (Venus). From Sannaddha comes Kuja (Mars), while Sarvāvasu brightens and promotes Brihaspati (Jupiter). Lastly, the ray of Svarāt nourishes and sustains Shani (Saturn).

8.One might also consider the wealthy, landed gentry, corporations and large businesses interests.

9.See Binary Companion Theory in Section 1.5, which challenges the field star designation, postulating our Sun to be influenced by a distant dark stellar companion.

10.Early astro-meteorology observations appear to have been proved correct, inasmuch as the Sun (principally) and planets (secondarily) drive Earth’s weather patterning.

11.As Ketu is the primary Kāraka for moksha (liberation), it is considered beyond worldly desires and so presence as Chara Kāraka has been excluded.

12.Some astrologers prefer to exclude both nodes as Chara Kāraka, instead opting for the degree of Lagna as substitute.

13.Visha in a curative capacity.

      Chandra (Moon): I pay respects to Chandra, whose complexion is likened to pearls, conch and curds. Born to Atri and Anasuyā, he is the king of stars (Nakshatras) and medicine, granting wealth and prosperity to those who СКАЧАТЬ
