COMBUSTION OF PLANET (ASTANGATHA)
If a planet and Sun are in the same quarter of a Star, then that Planet is said to be in
Combustion. A combust planet is capable to produce common type of results. It is true that a
combust planet is week. But it is not true that its effects become nil. Venus and Mercury have
no Astanga Dosha.
5.
PLANETORY WAR (GRAHA YUDHHA)
Except Sun, if any planet is in association with MARS (KUJA) then that plane is said to be in
planetary war.
6.
DEFEATED PLANET
When a planet is in association with an enemy planet and its degrees are less than that of enemy
planet then that planet is said to be a defeated planet.
7.
WINNING PLANET
When a planet is in association with an enemy planet and its degrees are more than that of enemy
planet, then that planet is said to be a winning planet.
8. RETROGRESSION OF PLANETS (VAKRATHWA)
Generally all planets move from one Rasi to the other Rasi in clockwise direction and Rahu and
Kethu moving in anti-clockwise direction. Some times we see that a planet, instead of moving in
clockwise direction in the Zodiac seems to be moving in anti-clockwise direction. Whenever a
planet is moving in anti-clockwise direction in the Zodiac, it is said to be in retrogression.
Sun and moon will never Retrograde
Rahu and Kethu are always in Retrogression.
9.
RETRO-DIRECT MOTION
Whenever a planet assumes retrograde motion in a Zodiacal sign, continue to move in anticlockwise motion in that particular sign for some time, stops its anti-clockwise motion and
returns to its original position with clockwise motion. Till the planet returns to the exact
longitude in degrees, minutes, seconds where from it became retrograde, it is said to be retrodirect motion. It is only after it moves clockwise from the exact location of retrogression that is
said to be in direct motion.
10.
STATIONARY PLANETS (STAMBANA)
The planets seem to remain stationary for some time after being in motion. This planetary
condition is known as STAMBANA.
11. Generally the signs are counted clockwise from Mesha to Meena, in Rasi chart used in
Tamilnadu. The signs are counted anti-clockwise from Mesha to Meena in Rasi Chart used in
Andhra Pradesh and North India.
12. Rahu and Kethu will be moving always 180 deg opposite from each other in the
Zodiac. Mercury is always moving either in the same sign or 12 th sign or 2nd sign from Sun. It
will never move away more than one sign either in the rear or in the front side from Sun. Venus
will be always moving between 1 st, 2nd, 3rd, 11th or 12th sign from Sun. It will never move away
more than two signs either in the rear or in the front side from Sun.
13. Before making an attempt to predict, it is desirable to verify three or four past events of the
natives live. This will be of use to gauge the strength of the planets as well as the correctness of
the planetary position. In a way this will be helpful to correct the planetary positions as
Almanacs or Panchangas differ in giving planetary position.
14. NATAL CHART

Natal Chart means Birth Chart. This is prepared based on the time, date, month, and year of
Birth of the native.
15. TRANSIT CHART
This chart is prepared at the time of consultation i.e. the time, date, month and year of
consultation.
16. PARIVARTHANA YOGA (PLANETARY EXCHANGE)
We know the ruling planet of each Rasi. Some times we can observe that the planet (A) is
occupying the Rasi owned by the planet (B) and the planet (B) occupies the Rasi owned by the
planet (A). This phenomenon is called planetary exchange or Parivarthana Yoga in
astrology. For example: When Mars is located in Venuss house VRISHABHA and Venus is
located in Marss house VRICHIKA, it is understood that the planet Mars and Venus are
involved in Planetary exchange. This yoga is given more importance in Nadi astrology, because
unexpected events take place due this Parivarthana yoga.
