INTRODUCTION TO KASHYAPA HORA
While taking into considereation many of the
volumenouswritings on the subject of Astrology, the
quintessence of the Great Nadi System is found to be of utmost
value and Kashyapa Hora stands to be the greatest method for
obtaining greater degree of results as far as the predictional
part of Astrological Science is concerned. Hence the Great
Sage, on the banks of the Holy river Cauvery, one of the Great
places of South India in the present State of TamilNadu,
delieneated to his students the Great Kashyapa Hora, a great
presentation to the world of Astrology.
The Nadi System was well delineated by such
Sages choosing the script of DEVA NAGARI which was in
vogue during those times. The various, innumerable stanzas
are in the form of both Tamil and Sanskrit languages. So, it is
a mixture of Sanskrit version.
In this system, the entire Shastra is delineated in
- the form of conversation between the Master and the students
and the quintessence of this system, mainly deals with the
conceprt of time pertaining to Hora - i.e., to say at what exact
time the questionnaire comes for consulting an Astrologer,
and depending on that time, the predictional parts are deduced.
This valuable systems enables an Astrologer to know or to
write in advance, what are the questions the questionnaire
desires to.ask and what are the answers (results) for such
questions. The same can be well predicted through this great
system. In this book, such versions are delineated for the
benefits of the readers through many charts.
It is quite possible, that during a Hora, two or three
persons may come for consulting an Astrologer, but how to
analyse them, and how to predict accurate answers in such
cases are also dealt with in the following pages. Ipso-facto
(needless to say) it is by the grace, the blessings of the
Almighty, I am just trying to place here before the readers of4 .
this book an humble appeal that the saine shall be read atleast
3-4 times in order to understand and make the best use of it,
so that my efforts would become fiuitful. Any kind of
suggestions about this book by thesxeaders, is welcome.
In this book, some of the slokas of the great Sri
VARAHAMIHIRA in original is included and this is well
related authentically to this HORA SHASTRA.
What is meant by HORA ?
It is established by the great learned of the past that
there are 24 horas commencing from the time of Sun rise of
a day to the next 24 hours closing with Sun rise of the next
day. From Sun to Saturn planet 7 Horas, and seven days are
considered. So, Hora means, the time at which the
questionnaire comes for questioning / consulting on a
particular week day, at a particular time, pertaining to such
appropriate Hora and what are the planetic combinations at
that particular time forms the Hora, i.e., to say it must be
noted that at what Hora the person has come for consultation,
is taken for consideration.

Horas. Again from Sun set till next day's Sun rise it is 12.
horas.So, morking 12 and night 12, a total of 24 Horas.
7 HORA AND THEIR LORDS
For Example :
On a Sunday the first Hora will be of Sun.So, when
the Sun rise is at 6a.m., the first Hora is of Sun from 6a.m. to
7a.m.The next Hora from 7a.m to 8a.m is Venus Hora. Tables
given in this book explains the subsequent Horas.
On a particular week day, the governing planet's
Hora is the first Hora.
For Example :
1, Sunday - Ravi (Sun) Hora.
2. Monday - Moon Hora
3. Tuesday - Mars Hora
4. Wednesday - Mercury Hora
5. Thursday - Jupiter Hora
6. Friday -Venus Hora
7. Saturday - Saturn Hora
The accompanying Hora table explains the
appropriate Horas according to timings based on the governing
planets.6
CAUSITIVE KARAKATWA/EF FECTS OF
HORA
Causitive effects of Héra planets :
By applying the principles of Transit to the birth chart
of natives, results for the native! s periodic situation could be
obtained.
In Hora, the planetary positions on the day, and the
time of consultation, by the native, is taken for delienation.
HORA
The planetary position at the time of consultation of the
natives are considered and assesment can be made regarding
the question of the native.
For Example :
In a native's birth chart if Sun and Jupiter are together
in a particular sign, predictions can be given regarding natives
father to be a notable person and also having spiritual thoughts
ete,
But according to Hora, if these two planets are together
in a sign on the day and at the time of native's consultation
and according to Hora, if it is a Jupiter's Hora, then we are
considering regarding the native, the same combination can
be assesed as political support and such achievements, and
also there will be great cooperation from big personalities,
notable persons.Therefore, we have to considcr the difference
between the causitive effects of birth chart and the time of
Hora effects. The planetary effects of planets are very
important for consideration, including Kala (Time), Desha
(such places accordingly), and the future.

Causitive effects of planets in Hora
. Guru Kashyapa Maharshi while discussing with his
disciples regarding the causitive effects of planets in Hora,
says, that there is a difference between Hora and Natal charts
regarding the planetary effects.
DISCUSSION BETWEEN
MASTER & DISCIPLE
Desciple:
Master, how could there be a difference between the
Hora and the natal planetary combinations when the planets
have their own specific nature ? How to distinguish varied
nature of the planets and its effects ?
Master: .
Yes - youg question on the surface looks correct, but
you have to observe that a woman is called by his son as a
mother, and she becomes wife for her husband, and sister to ,
her brother/sister. Here the woman is one and the relaionship
of woman undergoes different changes depending on persons
involved / circumstances. For instance, a man can enact as
Rama ina drama and he may be either a good man in personal
life or may be a thief, but for the reason ha has acted as Rama
he will not become Rama. :
Now let us discuss the planets in the above form, where
Mercury and Mars combination in Natal charts gives the result
of ‘impediments in educational lines’ (i.e. Vidya Bhanga).Also
indicating the native will have knowledge in technical line.
When this combination appears in Hora, there will be
quarelling between/among brothers/in business affairs.
Sometimes between partners also or with blood relatives.
Anyhow, these two planets combinations is considered as
- quarelling aspects., while considering the predictions from the
Hora point of view. Further, Sun is the causitive planet for
father and Moon for mother. In Hora Sun is eminent person
having Raja karya where Moon represents mother. If Moon is
under the control of Dragon-Head there will be indications of
mental aberrations.
If Sun is under the control of Dragon-head, it indicates
problems/hardships to native's father or to the elder son of the
native. ..
So, as per Hora, we are taking combination of two
planets and their causitive affects. In the following paragraphs,
let us discuss some of the causative effects of each planet with
other planets.

person are awaiting for helping hand from the native and out
of them one maybe a blood relative to the Hora Lord.
For instance, if the Hora Lord is Saturn i.e. at the time of
consultation and if Sun and Mars are with Saturn, then it
indicates, the Hora Lord will have to encounter/overcome some
inimical situations. If Sun and Mars are in Sth and 9th to Saturn
and if Sun is in Sth and Mars in 9th to Saturn, then the native
will have to encounter/overcome some major disturbances/
obstructional aspects either from governmental sides or
political sides/or troubles through police or from an angry
person. if these two planets are in 11th to Saturn, the native
(Saturn) enjoys supporting factors and it can be noted that
even persons who were supposed to be enemical to the native

3 - PLANETS / OTHER PLANETS COMBINATION
Before actually beginning for discussion of 3 -
planets combination, it would be necessasry to make a mention26
that if all the planetic combinations are to be delineated in
details it runs to several hundreds of pages. Hence, considering
the limitation of this book, few combitations are given here
as hints.
Comparisons :
Sun is the governing planet of father in Natal
Chart and in Hora also, Sun indicates governmental aspects,
father and dragon-tail indicates Matha-Maha (Grand-mother)
in Natal. But in Hora Dragon-T: ail indicates litigations and
impediments/breaks etc. Saturn is governing planet for work
and also he is the son of Sun. Venus is the planet of wife in
Natal and Hora. In Hora the same Venus represents house
and wealth.
Now let us discuss the planetary
combinations with some examples :-
1, SUN + DRAGON -TAIL + SATURN:
Sun is father, Dragon-tail, litigation.
Saturn is the son of Sun.
Hence Sun (father), Tail (litigation),
Saturn (Son). So, indications of some litigational aspects
between the father and son due to misunderstanding because
Dragon-Tail is in the middle. :
AND
if itis Sun + Saturn + Dragon-Tail, it indicates the father and
son both are unitedly fighting against some litigational aspects,
and trying to find some solution.
2. SUN + SATURN + DRAGON-TAIL + VENUS :
Both father and son together unitedly fighting against some
litigational aspects regarding wealth, house property etc.
27
3, MARS + VEN@S + DRAGON-TAIL :
Mars is husband. Venus is wife and they are together facing
some litigational aspects.
4. MARS + DRAGON-TAIL + VENUS :
Mars (husband), wife. (Venus) are quarelling between
themselves (because there is dragon-tail in the midlle)
OR ’
it indicates that one of the native's brothers is having some
problems in his family life.
5. Venus, Mars, Dragon-Tail - Mercury and Moon (in
successive degrees) Venus (wife), Mars (Husband), Dragon-
Tail (litigation), Mercury indicating property, Moon.(mother)
indications are that both husband and wife are unitedly facing
litigational aspects regarding some property belonging to
mother or mother-in-law.
6. SATURN HORA :
Saturn,(Moon) + Dragon Tail + Jupiter. Saturn (work), Moon
(accusations), Dragon-Tail (litigation) and J upiter (Judge).
Hence, it is an indication that the question is about
the native questioning regarding his career when he has
committed some mischief (Moon indicating mischief) and |
Dragon-Tail indicating litigation. Hence the native is charged,
following the mischief, and facing in accusations a court of
law.
Also, the native, under the prevailing
circumstances is under suspension from service for the reasons28
mentioned above.

BRAHMINS :
_ Although it is generally assumed that Brahmins are

PRINCIPLES OF HORA :.
CHART:
1. If there are 2 to 3 planets in a particular sign, consider the
degree of each planet or the division of stars and their padas.
The degree, minutes and second position of each planet at the
time of consideration are to be taken.
2. At the time of a native's consultation, the Hora planet must
be taken for consideration - i.e. Guru Hora, Budha Hora, Satum32
Hora etc., accordingly, and it must be noted at what exact
position and the degree at which the, planet is situated or in
other words, considering a particular sign, the note must be
made to what extent a planet has passed in particular sign
considering its degree. So, the position of planets in degree
must be taken as important factor at the time of consultation
by a native. :
3. Commencing from the Sun rise of a day till the time of Sun
set, itis {2 hours and again from the day's Sun set till the next
Sun rise there are another 12 hours. Thus the totalling 24 hours.
So, there are 24 horas i.e., | hora for every | hour.
During the tenure of these 24 hours, the various
planetic degree must be kept as a ready reckoner for 24 Hora
charts for each day.
4. In this way after preparing 24 Hora charts, it is essential to
record at what exact Hora time a native has arrived for
consultation and in that manner the exact Hora must be noted
down. And after deciding the Hora, the relevant planets
position must be noted for predictional parts. 2nd, 7th (and
also 1 1th) signs must be considered with respect to the degree
of the planets and the causative effects of these planets must
be considered for predictionai parts. If there are planets in
2nd, 7th and 1 ith and whether they are friendly to the Hora
Lord or inimical to the respective Hora Lord must be taken
note of before prediction.
5. RETROGRESSION OF PLANETS :
If any planets are in retrogression they will be aspecting
the rear signs from their position.
33
If the Lord,of Hora is in retro motion, and if they are
any friendly planets'in the rear sign, then the Hora planet (the
native) enjoys beneficial reuslts.
If there are inimical planets for the Hora Lord on the
rear sign, then inauspicious unwarrentable results are expected
to the native.
If the rear sign planet is aspected by friendly planets
from its 7th aspect, then it is beneficial.
_ If the above planet is aspected by inimical planet
from its 7th, then inauspicious / unwarrentable results are
obtainable. In order to enlighten the above factors, in the
following paragraphs we give examples through various charts.
EXAMPLE CHARTS
CHART - 1
Title - Bad to Worse - worse to worse
In this chart (1) Jupiter is retro in Leo with Dragon - Head and
he ( the native) expects some help, co-operation from the rear
sign, where there is Saturn. But Saturn is with Moon and Saturn
is aspected by major enemy Mars: situated in 7th from Saturn.
Jupiter is not willing to stay with the Demon planet Dragon-
Head, because, when Jupiter is with Dragon-Head he looses
his strength, status and power. Hence Jupiter tries to leave
Dragon - Head : and hence becomes retro., while expecting
some help / support . benefits and status. But the rear house34
Cancer is occupied by Saturn, where Saturn is already hopeless
and helpless, because he is with the enemy of Moon and
aspected by major enemy Mars. Mars and Moon are enemies
to Saturn. Hence Saturn's position is meserable. So, the native
who seeks guidance and help while consulting an Astrologer
in Jupiter Hora (as in this case) who is in great distress had to
approach his close friend for help, but his friend himself is
already in a miserable position and finally arrives at a
conclusion, that his position itself is far better than his friend's
from who he thought of seeking help.
For the same chart, suppose if the questioner
arrives in Saturn Hora, then saturn is native ( Horadhipathi is
the native) who is in great distress and suffering due to
suppression, and humiliation imposed by his relatives and
some of the acquaintainces, because saturn is defeated by
Moon and Mars. So, it is to be judjed that the native has
appeared for consultation about his great problems and
humiliating situations, and trying to find some solutions for
his problems. So, this bécomes the ‘question’ part.
ANSWER:
The Retro Jupiter is the close friend of Saturn, who
is aspecting on the rear sign where there is the friend Saturn.
Hence, it can be deduced that the native will get favourable
supporting factors resulting in beneficial aspects within a short
time, will be the answer.
So, from the above it can be deduced and observed
that, although the chart is the same (as in above case) still
there is difference in Horas and hence the results varies
according to Hora Lords.
CHART 2:
Title : "A Friend in need is a Friend indeed”
In this chart, Jupiter is in Leo with Dragon Head and
Mars (who are inimical to each other). Here, Jupiter becomes
Retro, because he can't tolerate the enemity and the quarelling
between Dragon Head and Mars, hence Jupiter comes Retro.,
and hence tries to approach a friend who can help. His friend
is Saturn who is in a good position, a wealthy, well - to - do
one, invites his friend (Jupiter). Saturn and Venus are having
7th aspects to each other. where Venus indicating wealth.
Hence Saturn is having good wealth and can support Jupiter.
therefore Jupiter gets help, beneficial factors through his friend
Saturn, by becoming retro. So, if Jupiter is the Hora Lord (the
native) then the native who is in the critical position, gets
support and help through his friend or in other words, the native
because of his critical position is thinking of leaving his place,
but a wealthy friend supports and helps him.36
CHART 3:
Title : Help from Guru (Noble persons)
Here, the native has appeared in Saturn Hora, who is
in the 10th degree of Leo and who is Retro and Dragon-Tail is
in Sth degree, and second to Leo there are enemies of Satum
(Moon & Mars).
Therefore Saturn becomes Retro because of his
precarious condition and on the rear sign there is the exalted
friend jupiter. So, Saturn by becoming Retro who (after passing
5 degrees) has to encounter with inimical planet dragon-Tail
and hence the result is that Saturn comes across difficulties
because of inimical planet Dragon-tail who controls, and binds
saturn. Anyhow, after such sufferings ( after some months)
when Jupiter enters Leo according to Transit, a friend comes
to release Saturn and thus Saturn (the native) gets released
from such suffering and binding .
CHART 4 : Hope for the best and prepare for the worst -
37
A Trap for Sacrifice)
Here, the native has appeared in Venus Hora,
Venus is female. Mars is the husband who is in.the 7th from
Venus who is under the inimical control of Dragon-Head. Retro
Venus is expecting some support and help from his close friend
Mercury to save her husband from diffuclties (and in order to
help her husband). But Venus while trying to get help from
the rear sign, there is Moon with Mercury. Here, the native
(she) unfortunately, will be constrained to loosen her chastity
belt as a matter of sacrifice in order to help her husband, and
this is because of the tricks played by Moon who exploits the
helpless condition of the Lady(where the wife wants to help
her husband, but she becoming hopelessly helpless and she
had to sacrifice her chastity).
PART -B: A Double edged knife is better than a many edged
wife.
For the above chart 4, should it be Mars Hora,
where 7th to Mars there is Venus (Venus is the wife of the38
native). Venus retro is trying to enter a brothel (who has no
norms of principles about chastity) and he native (husband)
who cannot tolerate his wife’s immoral activities seriously
thinks of a suicidal act on his own life, because Dragon-Head
is Kaala Purusha (anti-clockwise) and Mars is entering the
mouth of Kaala Purusha, and hence the husband suffers
humiliation and mental torture because of his wife's immoral
behaviour and sinful activities.
So, from the above two charts, it can be observed
that in Chart 5 Venus Hora wife is trying to protect her husband
while she has to get seduced, and in same chart Mars Hora
husband has to sacrifice his life, because of his many edged
wife. It is stated by the wise that "a double edged knife is -
better than a many edged wife":
RESULTS OF RETRO-DIRECT MOTION
(RUJU)
CHART 5: Every Saint has a Past -
Here it is Jupiter Hora. Jupiter is the symbol of
intellect and who is retro-Direct and Jupiter is Retro-Direct
and before that he was Retro. So, Jupiter, before coming to
39 -
retro-direct motion ( the native ) had bad association with
immoral persons, drunkards and persons having many vices.
But now as he is in retro-direct motion develops an inclination
towards the path of righteousness and wisdom. But second to
Jupiter there is Moon. Dragon-Tail is 5th from Moon. Moon
and Dragon-Tail combination indicates Holy water and Holy
places and hence the native, in the past, who had associations
with wicked people, now is developing interest towards the
path of righteousness and wisdom. According to planets in
second to Jupoiter indicates the native becomes a Saint.
It is to be noted that any Hora Lord, if retro and rear
sign is occupied by inimical planets, then it can be deduced
that the native who has having association with people of vices,
in subsequent periods changes for good. If any Hora Lord is
having bad planets in second, it is an indication that the native
will have accompaniment with wicked people, in future.
Anyhow, after some months from the time of
consultation, the Hora Lord becomes retro and if the rear sign
is occupied by Holy planets, that indicates , first the native
will be a wicked person, but later changes for better and higher
positions.

CHART 6: Worse to Good -40
Here the native has appeared in the Mars Hora for
consultation. Mars is debilitated in Cancer and who is in
between two major inimical planets - viz - Saturn and Dragon-
Head in the same sign, which indicates that the native is in
desperate, deprived condition, almost feeling abondoned in
life. Anyhow, it can be concluded that the native within a
duration of 6-7 months improves to better position from the
prevailing miserable condition.
DISCIPLE :
"Oh , Master, kindly explain how to decide that the
native's posotion improves within a period of 6-7 months -
kindly explain ?".
MASTER :
Of course, Mars may be in worst stage, but he is in
the house of Moon & Moon is in the house of Mars. From
Cancer to Scorpio for the transit of Mars, it takes a duration of
5-6-7 months. When transit Mars comes to his own sign
(Scorpio) where there are his close friends and favourable
planets viz-Sun, Jupiter and Venus situated. Sun is the royal
friend where Jupiter is the supporter / guide and Venus
indicating wealth. Hence, whatever may be the worst periods
of the past, within 5 to 7 months time improves very much,
and also the native in future can enjoy popularity (becomes a
notable person) besides enjoying great status in the society.
with commanding respectability. Hence it can be concluded
that the prosperity and improvements are 2 sure sign for the
native.
Al
CHART 7: Carrying Coal to New Castle -
Tn the prevoius chart, it was bad to good but
here in this, it is good to worse and let us discuss how it is.
The native appears in the Saturn Hora and the Hora Lord is
with Jupiter and in the house of Venus (wealth).
( Good to worse }
Saturn is aspected by close friend mercury from
7th ; so the native enjoys good support from two persons
(Jupiter and Mercury ) are friends to Saturn. Therefore the
native enjoys land benefits, respectability and fortune.
But to greediness for making more wealth, he
goes to some other place, where there will be unfavourable
conditions and thus loose his wealth, besides being subjected
to inimical aspects, distress and sufferings. This is because,
there is an interchange between Satum and Venus (Saturn in
the house of Venus and Venus in the house of Saturn). Before
the interchange of Saturn the native was in quite a good and
respectable position and because of greediness (as mentioned
above), leaving his place, goes to some other place, when
