Predictive Method: Predicting with Grahas as Karakas

by Laura Barat

When studying Astrology, the student can sometimes be overwhelmed by the plethora of predictive techniques available. Prediction based on Grahas as Karakas can give useful tools in not only predicting events, but also understanding the underlying strengths and weaknesses that the Graha gives to the horoscope. The most common problems and strengths a person experiences during their lifetime are directly attributable to the strength of Grahas as Karakas.

In this book you will learn:

- What a Graha as Karaka produces.

- How to measure the inherent power of a Graha as Karaka and how it will affect all types of events within a person’s life.

- Which Grahas will give their significations easily and readily and which Grahas will produce significant challenges.

- How to determine which conditional Nakshatra dasas apply to a horoscope.

- How to time events with Karakas utilizing Vimshottari dasa plus other conditional Nakshatra dasas.

- How to, by simply glancing at a horoscope, see the strengths and weaknesses therein.

- Many example horoscopes of famous persons are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the technique. Foreword by Ernst Wilhelm.

Graha Sutras

by Ernst Wilhelm

Graha Sutras is the first Volume of a series of Jyoitsh texts dealing with the predictive methods and principles found in Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra. 384 pages of Grahas, Grahas and more Grahas make Graha Sutras the most thorough text available on the Grahas.

Contains Sanskrit Astrological Sutras with original and precise translations that will bring the planets to life in a profound manner. Original artwork portrays the images of the planets in accordance with the precise descriptions found in Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra. There is even a chapter devoted to Graha Shanti – pacifying the planets.

This Vedic Astrology text is largely a commentary of Brihat Parashara Hora Shastras Sutras on the Grahas. The translation will often be found to be slightly different than what is in the available translations as I have striven to give a more precise and literal and, as mentioned, more accurate translation than most. Where my translations differ on significant points I have explained my reasoning as to the correctness of my translation. In addition to the Sutras provided by Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, I have found it worthwhile to add a few Sutras from other important texts such as Jataka Parijata and Yavana Jataka. Lastly I have included two chapters entirely my own: one on Grahas and numbers and the other on the myths surrounding the Grahas. My intention is thus to present an entirely complete manual for the study of the Grahas, after which you will only be in need of deepening your contemplations on this vast subject.
