A decante (Drikaan) consists of o ne th ird pari of a sign. The II rst decante i.e. from degrees I to 10 has the same planet as its lord as th e lord of the sign whose l SI dccanle it is. Th e 2nd decanle from degro:es II to 20 is owned by the planet who is lord of the sign 5th to the sign under co nsideration . The 3rd decante from 21 to 30 degrees is owned by the planet lord o f the sign 9th to that under consideration. In even signs the lord of the first hora i.e. the first IS degrees is Moon & of the next is the Sun. while in the case of odd signs the hora of the first halfofthe sign belongs to the Sun & the second ha lf to Moon.

TRANSLATORS NOTE Since the order of the Navams ha signs is th..: S,II11\: as in th . : na tural order Aries T au rus etc to Pisces there is a very simpk wily 10 find oUlthe Navamsha sign.

(54) TRANSLATOR'S NOTE The term "Chaya" or "Upchaya" means houses that ga ther the traits of the planets located in them are said to be gained by the native, This is particularly true for planets in the 10th & 11th houses. For exam pl e. one gets many animals if Saturn (which denotes animals) is located in the 11th house. The author of Bhavarth Ratnakar holds (see shloka I under Libra lagn a) that Jupiter for Libra nativilles gives good wealth in his dasa even though Jupilerown s two bad houses of the horoscope.'The reason is that the clement of "fi nancial ga in" as upchaya hou se is common between Ihese hou ses & Jupiter.

(57) TRANSLATOR'S NOTE How the Planets, Jupiter and Venus. perform the functions of ministers is illustrated by the Horoscope of Late Sanjay Gandhi. His Horoscope (birth 14th Dec 1946) is reproduced below. It
"
• would be observed that Venus. the minister. is lord of the house of Mantrana or ministership viz .. the 5th from lagna. Similarly Jupiter. the other minister. is the lord of the 51h house from the C handra Lagna. Both arc located in Ihc foremost kendra (10th) denoting karma. Hence the active interest that Shri Sanjay Gandhi showed in the affairs of the day to day working of the government as an advisor.

TRANSLATOR'S NOTE Most of th e a Sl:ological texts do not prescribe any as pects fo r Ra hu and Kelu. They o mit it at their own peril. Mahars hi Para shar-the fath er of India n ast rology-has very clea rly la id dow n that Rahu and Ketu have aspects mostly similar 10 Jupiter i.e. o n the house etc 5th. 71h & 9th from th em. In th is co nnection please sec the foll owi ng shloka (number26 in chapter 5 1) o f Brih31 Pa rasha r H Ord Shastra Bo mbay edition of Shaka 1837.
i.e. Rahu has full aspect on the hou se elc located 5th. 71h. 9th and 121h fro m it. It has ha lf Ihe aspect (i nOucnce) on the houses 2nd a nd 10th fro m it. II aspects with a lIu arterstrength the ho use etc3 rd an d 6th from it and is b lind towa rds the house it occu pies. Since th e s hadowy planets Rahu and Ketu easily ta ke upon th emselves the inOuen('.c o f other planets etc. we have deduced a coroll ary from the above rule that in throwing their own malefic inOucnce o n the house these shadowy pla nets may be aspeeting. they wil l also th row on the aspected houses the malefi c inOuence • of the male lic planet o r planets that may be influencing these nodes. by association o r aspect For exa mple. if Ketu & Ma rs are located in the 6th house in a ny ho roscope o r if Ketu is located in the 6th house & Ma rs in the 3 rd. Iith or 12th house. then Ketu in th rowing its 5th. 7th & 9th aspect will co nvey to the IOlh. 12th & the 2nd ho uses and will amict the said houses with the malefic

influl!nce of Ma rs as well. This corollary has great impact o n the "Xuja Dosha" for even thoug h when for example Ma rs & Ketu a re located together in the 6th house.

But in actual effect it would shorten the life o f the partner very much beca use the in fl ue nce of both Ma rs & Ketu (kil lers) woul d be fe lt by the 2nd house whic h being the lo ngevity (8th ) house o f the partner is bound to suffe r through the influence of Mars & Ketu (who also acts like Mars).
