In a pragmatic or a business world, people are more bothered about material benefits thanSelf_Actualistion. No one can be blamed for this because business or makingmoney is a Social Security Need ( as per Abraham Maslow’s Need Hierarchy Scale ). Higher than the social security need is the Self Actualisation need. But most of the people are on the Social Security need level and use all their energies to survive econmically in a competitive world. Zodiac Advanced Astrology, being pragmatic, have come out with the concept of the Wealth Ascendant or Dhana Lagna. Different Ray Numbers have been assigned to the Seven Revolving Heavens. They are Sun = 30 Mars = 6 Jupiter = 10 Moon = 16 Mercury = 8 Venus = 12 & Saturn = 1 Wealth Ascendant or Dhana Lagna can be calculated by the formula Dhana Number = Modulus of ((Ray No of the 9th lord from Moon + Ray No of the 9th lord from Ascendant )/12) D L ( Dhana Lagna - Wealth Ascendant ) = Moon Sign + Dhana Number The Houses of Wealth are 2,9,.10 & 11. The Second House rules Wealth, the 11th Gains, the Ninth Fortune and the 5th ( called Lakshmi Sthana ) is important as it is the Ninth from the Ninth. If the lords of these houses combine by association ( they should be within 12 degress ), aspect or mutual interchange, it can make the native a millionaire. If the D L is devoid of malefics, it will make the native a millionaire. (Shobhana Khage Lakshadhipam Kurvathe ). If a malefic tenant D L, it will make the native a lakhier. If the malefic be exalted, a millionaire is born. ( Khalagage Thungepi Kodeeswaram ). Vipareetha Raja Yogas can also create millionaires. In the horoscope of R Dalmia of Dalmia Cements, the 8th lord Jupiter in the 12th, well posited in Aries and Venus in the 11th, exalted generated a formidable yoga for wealth. In the horoscope of D Ambani, Jupiter was in the 10th, Saturn in the 2nd, the House of Wealth and Venus in the 12th ( another Dhana Yoga ). Henry Ford had Jupiter, Venus and Saturn in the 11th, the House of Gains. He benefited immensely from the Dasas of Jupiter Venus and Saturn. Wealth Percentage In order to calculate the Wealth Percentage, ascertain the Shad Balas of the four lords ( lords of 2, 9, 5 & 11 ) and divide it by 4. Then multiply the result with 100 and divide it by 600. Wealth Percentage = ( Shad Balas of the Four Lords / 4 ) *100/600 If the Wealth Percentage is well above 50%, the native has potential. If above 75% , well the chances are excellent. Another Wealth Yoga is Neechabhanga Raja Yoga. One of the best examples of N R Y is the horoscope of Hyder Ali, the father of Tippu Sultan. Libra rising, with Moon debilitated in Scorpio but with powerful Mars ( who cancels the debilitation ). From obscurity Hyder Ali rose to the level of an emperor. He became one of the greatest conquerors of all time, in fact greater than Napolean ! Here is an example of D L based horoscope Asc - Cancer; Ketu in the 3rd; Mars in the 4th;Mercury,Jupiter,Sun in the 6th;Venus in the 7th;Moon in the 8th;Rahu in the 10th and Saturn in the 12th. D L is Gemini. Here the 9th lord is Jupiter 9th lord from Luna is Mercury Modulus of ( Ray nos 10 + 8 )/12 = 6 From Moon Sign + 6 = D L = Gemini Ascendant There is no malefic planet in D L. Nor any malefic aspect. No benefic planet either in D L. But a benefic is aspecting D L. The native became a multimillionaire.One should be very careful while assessing wealth. If the 2nd House be exalted, the native rises high. The same is trueif the 11th House is exalted. An exalted Ninth House & an exalted 5thHouse also can confer fortune. One should also be careful while predicting these lords of 2 ,5,9 & 11 should not combine with 6,8,12 lords and should not be aspected by them either The dasha system used most commonly is called the Vimshottari Dasha System. The dashas are the planetary cycles of a life based on the placement of the Moon at birth. 9 Cycles of 9 Planets equal 120 years There are nine cycles which include the seven planets, plus the north and south nodes of the Moon (Rahu, Ketu). The outer planets are not used. Each cycle has a designated allotment of years that combine to equal a grand total of 120 years. The ruler of the ruling planet of each dasha is determined by the 27 nakshatras. Each nakshatra is ruled by one of the nine planets and follows in the same sequential order. So where the natal Moon is placed this nakshatra, and the ruling planet of that nakshatra, initiates the beginning of the order of the cycles of life. The planet that rules the main cycle of the dasha is called the maha dasha (major dasha). Within this cycle there are sub cycles called the bhukti. The ruling planets of the maha dasha and the bhukti are then further referred to in the chart by their house rulerships, dispositors, and the houses they are in. Using transits together with current dashas will prove their predictive value. Nakshatras The first nakshatra (Ashwini) is ruled by Ketu, followed by Venus, Sun, Moon, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn, and Mercury. The same sequential order is then twice repeated to complete all 27 nakshatras. Each dasha or planetary cycle has a different length of years: Ketu is 7 years, Venus 20 years, Sun 6 years, Moon 10 years, Mars 7 years, Rahu 18 years, Jupiter 16 years, Saturn 19 years, Mercury 17 years. Maha Dasha and Bhukti Rulers We use the nakshatras like a western astrologer uses the signs in terms of rulership. The nakshatras are all ruled by a planet and this ruling planet is used in prediction for both the results of the dasha periods and the transiting planets. The maha dasha and bhukti ruling planet will be analyzed in terms of its house placement, house rulership but the true result this dasha will produce will be based on the planet that rules the nakshatra the dasha ruling planet is in. The nakshatra ruling planet of the dasha will be assessed by the house it is in and rules. Transits of the Dasha Rulers The most important transiting planets to focus on here are the dasha rulers. When you are in maha dasha Jupiter and Mars bhukti then the most important planets in transit will be Jupiter and Mars. Additionally the natal placements of these two planets will be magnified when triggered by the transiting planets in a chart.

Each maha dasha is divided into nine sub cycles that are also ruled by planets. Again these bhuktis have sub divisions within them called antara dashas. There are further divisions that go down to at least seven levels. I use only the first three levels as beyond that they seem to get more and more subtle (and too complicated) for me. The maha dasha will always be the overall emphasis, the bhukti will be the more immediate and the antara dasha will be more personal. I find the bhukti will reveal the current events in a life.

Look to the houses the maha dasha and the bhukti ruling planets are located. 2. Look to the houses the maha dasha and bhukti rulers rule. 3. Look to the sign and nakshatra dispositors of both the maha dasha ruler and bhukti, what houses are these dispositors in. The results of the dasha will be seen through both of these dispositors but especially the nakshatra dispositor. 4. Look at the maha dasha as the new ascendant (lagna). The entire results of this dasha can be seen through the house placements of the other planets in relation to this new ascendant. As an entire maha dasha is experienced an individual will go through the experience of each planetary bhukti within that maha dasha period. *Assess the planets placements from the maha dasha ruler. If there are more than 2 planets in the opposite house of the maha dasha ruler then you know relationships will be the pressing issue of that dasha period. Planets placed 7th from one another will deal with relationships, marriage or divorce. If there are many planets that are 8 houses from the maha dasha ruler then that dasha will have enormous change and experiences involving death of loved ones. The bhukti ruler’s placement and relationship to the dasha ruler tells what the experience will be. Count from the Maha dasha ruling planet to the bhukti ruling planet in forward direction (clockwise). Count the house the Maha dasha ruling planet as house #1, then count from the bhukti ruling planet forward back to the maha dasha ruling planet. Always begin counting the house the planet is in as #1. Spacial Relationships of the Bhukti Ruling Planet counted from the Maha Dasha Ruler 1/1: concentrates on the matters signified by the house the planets are in 7/7: about relationships/connection with other people, marriages and divorce 2/12: gains/losses, money matters 3/11: friendly, competitive, learning, travel and achievement of desires 4/10: action, power, purpose, changes in career or work and changes in residence 5/9: benefic, auspicious, luck, travel, spiritual development 6/8: difficult, losses, enemies, death of loved ones, health problems Charts to be Analyzed Conor Clapton Death from Fall 03/20/1991 Brad Pitt 12/20/1996 Engaged Gweneth Palthrow; 06/16/1997 Relationship ended 1997 Met Jennifer Aniston; 07/29/2000 Marriage; 01/07/2005 split Daughter born 05/28/2006 Ted Kennedy On May 17, 2008, Mr. Kennedy suffered a seizure and was airlifted to a Boston hospital, where doctors discovered a malignant tumor in his brain.
