Introduction

The main objective of Astrology is to predict the future of the native with the help of his horoscope. For making accurate prediction it is necessary to make an analysis of three factors. These three factors are YOGAS formed with the combination and permutation of planets, 2nd important factor is periods (dasa) and 3rd factor is transit. When a person comes with a query, first of all it should be analyzed that his query is related with which houses and planets. The house with, which query is related is occupied by which planets and is receiving the aspects of which planets. The determination of the auspicious or inauspicious results of that house shall be done by analyzing three factors. These are house, house Lord and significators. For example if the question asked is regarding marriage in that case we shall see that which planets are there in seventh house, this house is aspected by which planets. Marriage yoga for the possibility of marriage is there or not and in addition to that the position of significator of 7th house i.e. JupiterNenus should be analyzed. For females the significator of 7th house is Jupiter and for males the natural significator of 7th house is Venus. By analyzing the placement, combination, and benefic or malefic impact of these planets we conclude weather auspicious yoga for the possibility of marriage is there or not. After Yoga next important factor to be considered is major or sub period, the duration of main period is a long and sub period's duration also can be 6 months or more than 2 years therefore, in order to predict the timing of an event during these 2 years the help of transit can be taken.

Therefore, for predicting an event the importance of transit should be considered. Although it is a matter of long discussion to determine whether transit predictions should be made on the basis of ascendant sign or moon sign. For supporting the predictions from both, scholars have given logical and justifiable opinions. But, the conclusions that we have derived on the basis of our experience advocate that auspiciousness or inauspiciousness of the transit results of planets should be done on the basis of moon sign and what type of results i.e, which house results it shall yield would be decided on the basis of ascendant sign. For instance if moon is positioned in 7th house and the sign of Leo is there, therefore transit of Saturn into this sign shall cause negative impact of Saturn's SADHESATI because transit of Saturn into Leo shows inauspicious results therefore there can be delay or problems in marriage and married life. Similarly what can be the results of transit of planets by considering the other important factors has been taken into account in this book. Because of lack of availability of books in the field of transit predictions this book has been written for catering the need of students of all India astrologer's Federation Societies Delhi. We hope that the book shall be of immense help for solving the problems of students while studying the techniques of making predictions. Rnally, I am highly thankful to God for inspiring me to learn Astrology & Vastu. I consider myself fortunate that I got an opportunity to write this book. For writing this book I received cooperation of honorable Mr. Arun Kumar Bansal who is President of All India Federation of Astrologer's Societies Delhi. Throughout my life I shall remain thankful to him. I also thank YashSharma 'Karan' to translate the book from Hindi to English to bring it before you in this shape. In addition to that I am Also thankful to all my seniors & teachers who guided me to learn Astrology minutely. - Vinay Garg

Introduction Every human being desires to know the forthcoming events of his life and its time. Every astrologer prepares an outline of the future of the native by considering the 12 houses of his horoscope, combinations and strengths of planets etc. Then the astrologer tries to tell the time when the predictions will materialize. Prediction of future is a tedious task but timing of an event is more important. The sages have described 42 dash as, results of transit of planets, various methods such as tajik, muntha and angirus. They have explained in detail the effects of movement of planets in sky (position of transitory Saturn from natal Saturn, transitory Jupiter from natal Jupiter etc). Everyone knows about the importance of procedures of transit. We shall discuss about it in this book. Planets move on their path with their individual speeds around the Sun. In this way planets complete their circumambulation around Sun by moving from one zodiac sign to other. When a person is born, the position of planets in various signs indicates his birth horoscope. After birth, the movement of planets in various signs indicates transit. The natal horoscope indicates the permanent effects of planets on the life of native but transit of planet signifies their influence at a particular time. According to Indian astrology, the fate of a person depends on the combined effect of natal horoscope, dash as of planets and transit. In predictive astrology we have learnt about various combinations (yogas), in calculations we studied various dashas, now we shall discuss transit. Predictions can be made only by combining the results of various yogas, dasha and transit. The importance of these methods in prediction has a following order: (i) Yogas (ii) Dash a- Antardasha (iii) Transit If yogas are not favourabe, dashas and transit will not be able to give good results. For example, if a horoscope does not permit a marriage, the most favourable dashas and transit will not be able to give a marriage. First of all there should be favourable combinations for marriage in the horoscope, next dasha- antardasha should be favourable, thirdly when transit is favourable, marriage will take place. Transit of Planets

Suppose a fan is running in a room. How this phenomenon is taking place. Will the fan run if there is no electricity? We can say that first of all electricity is needed, next there should be a fan and thirdly there should be an on/off button. Then the fan will circulate air. Suppose you have received a letter. When a letter for you comes in post office, the postman will deliver it to you. If there is no letter for you, postman or post office will be helpless. The importance of transit in prediction is third in the order of importance. Transit can not materialize an event alone.

How Transit is Judged Transit should be seen from Moon, Sun or ascendant ? The movement of a planet in a sign indicates it's effect on human beings. The ancient sages have recommended for the use of sign where Moon is situated in the natal horoscope. The situation of a transiting planet at a particular time from Moon sign indicates the result of transit for that time. The method of writing a horoscope has remained unchanged for hundreds of year. The natal horoscope indicates the fixed results from birth to death. The position of planets in the sky at the time of birth, their mutual relationships and their results are indicated by natal horoscope centered around ascendant (Lagna Kundali). This indicates results about all its houses. The moon chart is generally not used for the purpose. The 3 types of lagnas (ascendants) are popular in astrology. Birth ascendant, Moon ascendant and Sun ascendant. Which ascendant should be seen for results oftransit, birth ascendant, Moon or Sun? All ascendants signify different matters. Birth ascendant signifies body, Moon tells about mind and Sun represents soul. The native is made by the combination of all three. The soul cannot assert itself without body. Body is controlled by mind. Mind controls all senses and organs of body. Therefore importance of Moon ascendant is uppermost. Mantreshwar has also advocated for study of transit by Moon.

Amongst all ascendants (Birth ascendant, Moon and Sun), Moon is supreme for transit analysis. Vrihat Parashar Hora shastra advocates prediction by ascendant as well as Moon. According to Aadhan Lagna Siddhanta Moon at the time of birth remains in the sign where he was at the time of conceiving. This indicates importance of MoonWhen analysing the results of dasha-antardasha, the sign of dasha lord in natal chart is considered as ascendant for knowing the results of a dasha. There could be 12 ascendants, that is why Moon ascendant is important. Transit is an important part of Ashtakvarga system. The Ashtakvarga is formed by combination of ascendant and 7 planets. Ashtakvarga tells about the good-bad situations of planets. The good-bad results are arrived at by the mutual positions of Transit of Planets

planets, their friendships and naturally beneficial/adverse traits. The mutual situation of two planets indicates their good/bad results and not their situation from ascendant. The ascendants could be 12. Moon is one planet. That is why the position of a planet from Moon is important. That is why sages have chosen moon for predictions through transit because Moon is a planet as well as ascendant and controls ascendant of horoscope. The sequence of mahadasha also starts with lord of constellation where Moon is situated i.e. life begins with Moon. Moon is also the significator of a person's teen years. That is why position of Moon is important in the horoscope of a child for knowing any danger to his life. The gandant is also seen by Moon. The importance of a tithi is also due to Moon. The constellation of a day is also seen from Moon. The constellation where Moon is posited on a day is regarded as constellation for that day. In this way, Moon is very important in Vedic astrology. Tithi, constellation, muhurt, dasha etc. all activities are considered according to Moon. Due to this reason Moon is important for transit. Sages have advised to consider transit from Moon.

Is It Possible to Predict Only by Transit ? Transit is an important part of Predictive Astrology but it is not everything. Our sages have stated clearly that what is missing in horoscope, cannot be given by transit. Example Transit works under mahadasha (Major Period) and antardasha (Sub Period). lfthe operating dasha- antardasha are of adverse planets but transit is favourable the native will not have good results. Transit tells about the present situation of planets in sky from the position of planets in natal horoscope. A planet which is well placed in birth horoscope will give good results as soon as it comes in favourable situation in transit but the planet which is adverse in birth horoscope will not give good results when it comes in favourable position in transit. When the transiting planets come in the same sign and degrees of its position in birth horoscope, their results are clearly visible. Suppose Venus is posited in Taurus in 18° in natal horoscope. When Venus will come again in transit in Taurus in 18°, its good or bad results will be seen. In this way transiting planets remain under the influence of natal planets. If a planet is exalted or in own sign in birth horoscope, it will not give bad results when it comes in an adverse position in transit. The results of transit are based on position of planets in birth horoscope. The study of transit rules indicates that transit also remains under the influence of dash a and antardasha. A house of the horoscope signifies many aspects. For example

Transit of Planets

the 4th house signifies mother, education, vehicles, land, agriculture, comforts etc. Which item out of these will materialize depends on dasha-antardasha. Transit follows the desires of dashas. Transit results also depend on Tara. The 1, 3, 5, 7 tara from birth constellation are adverse. Transit is an important part of Astakvarga System. In Ashtakvarga good/bad position of a planet are arrived at by considering ascendant and planets as centre. An ashtakvarga chart is prepared for each planet and good/bad results of transit are predicted on its basis. The results of transit also depend on bindus of ashtakvarga chart. The result of transit is arrived at by combining the results of all transiting planets. The result of a single planet is not important as a planet is only a part of solar system. As there are various parts of body-head, eyes, nose etc. Their combination forms body. Similarly the result of transit is arrived at by combining the effects of all transiting planets. That is why the individual transit of each planet Saturn, Jupiter etc gives different result in each cycle.

The Phenomenon ·of Transit Before predicting about the results of transit, it should be ascertained whether a particular planet is favourable or adverse in the horoscope. Experience has shown that a planet that appears benefic in the horoscope initially does not give favourable results because in reality it is not benefic. For example if a person has Taurus ascendant and Jupiter is posited in 1Oth house of his horoscope. Every astrologer knows that Jupiter in 1Oth house gives good results but experience does not corroborate it. For Taurus ascendant, Jupiter is 8th and 11th lord therefore it gives adverse results. Similarly planets have to be evaluated for other ascendants as well.

Transit of Planets

For knowing the timing of an event Annual Horoscope (Varshphal} is cast. In the various methods of annual horoscope, the day-year method is most important and accurate. · In this method too transit of planets is studied. When aspects of planets are beneficial and transitory planets are also favourable, positive results are achieved. If planetary combinations of horoscope are good but transit is adverse, benefic effects will be observed less and unfavourable results of transit will be seen more. In the study of transit, all combinations of natal and transitory planets are not important but conjunctions and oppositions are significant. Particularly the conjunction is important. Certain houses of the horoscope are important. The transit of Sun, Saturn, Jupiter and Mars over these places gives visible results. The cusp of birth ascendant, middle position of 10th house, natal Sun, Jupiter and Moon are important. Transit over these locations gives significant results. Moon travels over all 12 signs within a month, that is why the significant results of Moon are normally not felt. However transit of Moon is important particularly for study of diseases or danger. If Jupiter is placed in 5, 9, 10 or 11 house of horoscope, transit of Moon over natal Jupiter gives benefic results for money. These days give comforts and success. Transit of Moon over natal Saturn gives failure and difficulties. Transit of Moon over other planets will be benefic only when these planets are benefic in natal horoscope. Moon stays in a sign onlyfor214 days. Transit of Sun on 1Oth house of nat~ I horoscope is important. Transit of Sun gives the results of house of its transit. Generally 5, 9, 1Oth months from birth month are fortunate when health remains good. When Sun moves over natal Saturn, 2 to 4 days give problems and failure. Every year these days are fixed, therefore it is advantageous to remember it. Transit of Venus in 1, 2, 5, 7, 9 houses from ascendant is benefic. At other places it is not important. Transitory Venus on ascendant gives peace of mind, health is good, days are joyous and full of entertainment. Venus in 2nd house gives nearness to family members, money transactions are favourable, music etc keep mind pleased. Venus in 5th house gives luxuries. Transit of Venus on 7th house gives marital bliss. Venus on 9th house confers success in job or business. The results of Mars are more intense compared to above 3 planets. Mars remains in a sign for approximately 45 days. When it is retrograde it remains in a sign for 5 months. When retrograde Mars is in 6, 8, 12 house or is in these houses near Saturn, Venus or Rahu, bad results are indicated. Results of Mars are not as important as Jupiter, Saturn or Moon.

Chapter-6

Vedha (Obstruction) When a planet is transiting on a benefic house and at the same time another planet is transiting on an obstructing house the benefic results of the transit are converted into bad ones. This behaviour of planets is called vedha. In following pages benefic/malefic places of transit of planets will be described. Sun : Benefic houses for transit :3, 6, 10, 11 Vedha Houses : 9, 12, 4, 5 It means that 3rd house is considered lucky for transit of Sun but if a planet is posited in 9th house (except Saturn as Saturn is son of Sun, there is no vedha of father-son) sun will be obstructed and will lose his beneficence. Similarly Sun is auspicious on 6th house but it will lose its beneficence if a planet is present in 12th house. Similarly if Sun is in transiting on 1Oth house, a planet in 4th and if Sun is on 11th, planet in 5th house will cause obstruction and weaken Sun. Vedha for other planets are mentioned below : Moon : Gives good results on 1, 3, 6, 7, 10, 11 in transit but if other planets are present in 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 12, Moon will be powerless due to vedha. However vedha of Mercury is not considered because Mercury is son of Moon. Mars :Gives good results on 3, 6, 11.1fthe other planet is in 5, 9, 12, Mars will be weak due to vedha. Mercury: Gives auspicious results on 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11 in transit but if another planet is in 1, 3, 5, 8, 9, 12it will be neutralized due to vedha. Vedha of Moon is not considered for Mercury. Jupiter : Gives good results on 2, 5, 7, 9, 11. By vedha planets of 3, 4, 8, 10, 12 become neutral. (It appears to mean that Jupiter is not affected by vedha of other planets.) Venus : Gives results on 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, 12 houses but other planet in 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11 houses at the same time neutralizes Venus. Vedha of Rahu-Ketu are like Sun. When a planet transits over a benefic house from natal Moon it gives good results. However if at the same time another planet transits from obstructing house, the good results are converted into bad. Good results will not be obtained till the planet does not Transit of Planets

39

leave the obstructing house. However it should also be seen whether the transiting planet is still on auspicious house from Moon or not . If the planet leaves the auspicious house and obstructing planet also leaves the obstructing house, the auspicious planet will not be effective. The reverse of above rule is also valid. If a planet transits on obstructing house, bad results are obtained. At the same time if a planet travels on an auspicious house, bad results of former planet are neutralized. This is called reverse vedha orvaam vedha. Example Horoscope For example a native was born on 11 July 1964 at 21.30 hrs at Delhi. Its lagna horoscope is given below .If we look for transit on 9 August 2005 at 16.30 hrs the transit horoscope will be as follows:

In transit horoscope we shall see the benefic and vedha houses from Moonsign of native. The moonsign of native is Cancer. Therefore position of planets will be seen by considering Cancer as 1 st house. For example if we wish to study the transit of Jupiter, the benefic houses for Jupiter are 2, 5, 7, 9 and 11 from Moon and obstructing houses are 3, 4, 8, 10 and 12. In transit horoscope Jupiter is in Virgo. It means Jupiter is in 3rd house from Moon sign. This 3rd house is obstructing house for Jupiter, therefore native' will suffer due to bad results of Jupiter. The Virgo sign is in 8th house in lagna horoscope of native, therefore native will have to pass through bad results of 8th house. The 8th house indicates accidents, delay in jobs, hurdles and fall of morale. Therefore possibly native 40

Transit of Planets

may have to pass through these difficulties. At the same time if we consider reverse vedha i.e., if a planet transits on benefic houses 2, 5, 7, 9 and 11 from Moon for Jupiter, the above mentioned bad effects will be neutralized. In transit horoscope it is seen that in 2nd house from native's moonsign Cancer Venus and in 9th house Rahu are present therefore till this situation continues, native will not suffer due to bad effects of Jupiter. Generally Venus stays in a sign for 1 month to 5 weeks therefore for this period Jupiter's ill effects may remain suspended. Rahu will remain in 9th house for 1 Y2 years. During this period Jupiter will change his sign and will be in 4th house from Moonsign. Here Jupiter will stay for 1 year. The 4th house is also a vedha place for Jupiter. Therefore Jupiter will not give good results over here. Further Rahu in 9th house from Moon will be in this house for only 6th months. It means that after passing of these 6 months, Jupiter will be in 4th house but Rahu will not be in 9th house. During these 6 months bad results of transit of Jupiter are possible. Similarly the results of other planet's transit can be forecast by considering vedha.
