Astrology
Lal
Kitab
The specific
principles of predictive astrology as per Lal Kitab
are better summed up here as follows
1. The Sun as lord of the 5th, the
Mercury as lord of the 3rd and 6th, the Jupiter as
lord of the 9th and the Saturn as lord of the 10th
are directly or indirectly in some form or the other
are the Karakas of the father and his property. But
the Jupiter and the Sun, Jupiter and Mercury or
Jupiter and Saturn occupying any house jointly carry
no relevance to the knowledge about father or
father's property at all. Even Mercury and Sun,
Mercury and Saturn or Sun and Saturn
also sitting together behave in the same manner.
2. If two or more inimical planets are occupying a
single house, they will not behave as enemies. But it
does not mean that they do not affect the influences
of each other and show their own results of being in
that house independently i.e. their conjunction does
not affect their individual results.
3. Friendly planets together occupying a house become
extremely friendly and help each other in producing
good and auspicious results.
4. The 7th house is regarded as the Pucca Ghar
(permanent house) of Mercury. If Mercury is placed in
the 7th house of a horoscope, even the powerful
planets like Sun, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn occupying
a Kendra, 2nd or11th house cannot affect the health
of the native adversely.
5. If a female planet is placed in any house along
with Saturn and both are being aspected by any other
planet, then the aspecting planet will become
afflicted and affect adversely the persons and
relatives of such aspecting planet as Karakas.
6. In general, all planets in their Pucca Ghar, own
house or exalted house give good results. A planet in
inimical house or in a house of debilitation gives
bad results. If a planet is not placed in his Pucca
Ghar and the same is occupied by a planet inimical to
such planet, then that planet will destroy the good
results of the house in which he stands placed.
7. While examining a horoscope, the 1st, 7th, 8th and
11th houses must be examined together as they are
mutually interested. The planets in the ascendant is
treated as a ruler and the one in the 7th acts as his
minister. The planet in the 8th is the eye of that
ruler, whereas the planet in the11th house is the
ruler's foot.
More planets in the 7th house than the 1st house
shows that the ruler does not have required control
over his minister. If the planets in the 11th house
are inimical to the planets in the first house, then
they will not obey the command of the ruler i.e., the
results of the 11th house will be adversely affected.
The planets of the 8th house (eyes) guide the planets
of the7th house (minister) and control their actions
and effects. If the planets of the 1st and 8th houses
are friendly, then the planet in the 7th house cannot
play any mischief.
Mars in the 7th is considered to be highly conducive
for gaining large property. But if mercury is in the
Lagna, it will destroy the properties. It will be
destroyed because of the foolishness of the native,
because here the Mercury beingin the first house is
Karaka of the native. At the same time if the Mercury
is in the 8th house, it will again destroy the
properties, but here the reasons for destination will
be unknown and invisible, because the active elements
of the 8th house are always secretive and mysterious
in nature over which the native has no control.
Similarly, if the planets of the 1st and 11th houses
destination are friendly, they will control the
planets of the 7th house. If they are inimical, the
results would be bad.
The planets of the 1st house aspect the planets of
the 7thhouse. If they are mutually inimical, then the
bad results accrue because of the foolishness or
unworthiness of the native. The planets of the 8th
house aspect the planets of the 2nd house and thereby
affect their results.
8. 2nd, 6th, 8th, 12th and 11th houses must also be
examined simultaneously as follows:
(i) The planets of the 8th house aspect the 2nd house
and thereby affect the results of the 2nd house. The
effects of the aspects of the planets of the 8th
house over the 2nd house are affected by the planets
of the 11th house - favorably if friendly and
unfavorably if inimical.
(ii) The planets of the 2nd house aspect the 6th
house and affects its results. The planets of the 6th
and 8th houses have secret relations with each other,
because of which they also affect the planets of the
2nd house.
(iii) The 12th house also affects the 2nd house. If
there are evil planets in the 6th and 8th houses,
(because of their secret/implied conjunction) their
evil power increases 10 times.
(iv) If the planets in the 12th and 8th houses are
inimical, the native should not visit temples and
other places of worship.
9. The 3rd, 11th, 5th, 9th and 10th houses must also
be examined simultaneously as follows:
(i) If there is any planet in the 3rd house, it will
start showing effects after the birth of the native's
younger brother. If the 9th and 5th houses are
occupied by Saturn Rahu or Ketu then the unfavorable
changes start coming up in the native's life just
after the birth of the child.
(ii) If there are good planets in the 9th house and
there is no planet in the 2nd house, the native
remains deprived of all the benefits.
(iii) If there is no planet in the 4th house, or it
is occupied by Rahu, Ketu or Saturn, then the good
results of the 10th house will not be received by the
native. If 10th and 2nd houses are empty; the good
results of the 4th house will go waste.
(iv) If the 3rd and 9th houses are bad, the 5th will
also prove bad.
(v) If the 9th is occupied by Sun or Moon, the 5th
house will give good results.
(vi) If the 9th is occupied by Sun or Moon, then Rahu
or Ketu in the 5th will neither affect the issues of
the native or the native himself adversely.
(vii) If Rahu or Ketu be placed in the 5th and there
are inimical planets in the 8th then strokes of
misfortune will hit the native through the 11th
house. The relatives indicated by the planets of the
5th and 8th houses will also be affected. In this
situation the earnings of the native will also be
affected very adversely, if the 2nd house is empty.
Nothing will be able to save the native. Now the
planets of the 10th and 5th will also turn to be
malefics whatever be their natural character.
