 Preface
Group researches have been pioneered by Sh. KN. Rao. This
book on Drekkana Is the result of one such group research.
Thi<; group of astrologers was intrigued by the allocation of
Vlmshopak bala to the shadvargas. The natal chart gets 5 1>oints out
of a total of twenty points (VImshopak stands fur twenty). Navamsha
gets 5 points and the Drekkana gets 4 points. The utilisation of
Drekkana was not commensurate with this value. To ensure usage of
this varga In conformity with Its potential It was decided that the
group would.
a Collect and collate all available data on Drekkana.
b. Research the various uses of Drekkana.
The effort would have been with the readers earlier but
Sh. KN. Rao directed that this grou1> also examines "Kanll Phala" as
per the Varanasl Drekkana to ensure that the researches give, to the
readers, some thing totally new.
Thi<; group of eminent astrologers worked with me. on behalf of
every member of this group I thank our astrology guru Sh. KN. Rao
fur his guidance, encouragement and SUJ>l>Ort.
The financial support given by "the Society for Vedic
Researches and Practices" for the production of this piece of
research with evidences supJ>Orting the researches Is duly
acknowledged and admired.

 Foreword

The late Gopesh Kumar Ojha whom I used to see in my

childhood come to our house to learn from my late mother south
Indian classics like rhrua Deepika, ]ataka Parilata, Beda (.1takam etc.
with the help of Telugu translations and commentaries, told me
many years later that In Varanasi there was a real great astrologer
schol.v, the late Rarna Yatan Ojha who advocated different versions
of dreshkona. hora. etc, and that they were given In Kashi Panchanga
year after year. I introduced it among our research students batch by
batch. I st.vted called them Varanasi Hora. Varanasi Dreshkona
though they could also be described as Arsha Vargas meaning
ancient divisional hOroscopes.
The late Sheshadri lyer referred to the use of the divisional
horoscopes In his books and showed some uses here and there. But
I used It most extensively as all my published .vtldes and later. books
show. I asked my students to use them extensively to overcome their
temptation to become victims to the doubtful validity of Nadi or
Bhrigu methods of predictive techniques. Many of our students of
the Bharatiya Vldy.l Bhawan have been giving brllll.1nt predictions,
particularly some women. and they use many divisional horoscopes.
I talked about these Varanasl vargas many times and once
during our discussion. Col.Gour offered to get a comprehensive
research done on It by a team of students chosen by him. This book is
the product of that effon
Divisional charts the unique gift of Hindu Sages and Rishls are
not only being taught but are increasingly being used In teaching and
research at the largest astrology teaching centre In the world, at the
Bhartf)ra Vldhya Bhawan New Delhi.
Drekkana - The one third division of ra~l Is an lmponant
divisional chart. Maharishi Prashar has assigned 4 Vlmshopak Bala
points to this chan, the Natal chart gets 6 and the Navamsha get 5,
In the 20 point allocated to the Shadvargas. It Is also Important to
mention that Maharishi Prashar decreed that all predictions be given
after analyzing the Shadvargas.
 A laudable experiment has been made by Col. A.K. Gour and his
team to examine all facets of this chart. The complete data that is
available on Drekkana In our classics has been collated in Section- I of
this challenging work. This Is an Immense service to the astrological
world. Col. Gour and his team deserve praise.
The applicability of this divisional chart. to fine-tune the predictive
process, in all conceivable areas has been explained In different
chapters of Section - 2.
Each chapter has been authored by our faculty members or
senior researchers.
A brief introduction of the authors would be in order -
Shri R.S. Panwar - He is a Sr. Telecom Engineer. He is Bronze
Medallist and a senior researcher who Is on the faculty of Institute of
Astrology. Bharriya Vldya Bhawan. New Delhi. He has the ability to
peruse doggedly an astrological point to its natural culmination. He is
he co-author of '7he Dw.ld.1Short,Jf}Dasha" - An excellent book on
conditional dasha. He has authored several research articles in the
(oumal of Astrology. He has contributed the chapters "Drekkana and
Nature, Drekkana and Yoga. Varanasi Drekkana and Karamphal" in
this book.
Dr.(Mrs.)Sri Rama Mlshra- She has taught Economics in Delhi
University. She after several years of researches at the Bhawan joined
the faculty where she is admired as a lucid astrology teacher. She has
co-authored the book "Dwadashottary Dasha". Her contribution to
the book are the chapter "Drekkana and Profession. Varanasi
Drekkana and Karamphal".
Late Air Commodore Shrl Chandan Ghosh- A fighter pilot, a
musician, an author and an astrologer, he was a multl faceted
personality. He lived a full vibrant life of happiness and achievements.
In this book he has contributed the chapter on "Drekkana past and
future life". He Is the one who Is practically testing his own
conclusion.
Mrs. Pretty Dwlvedl- A house wife who was a silver medallist
of her course. She has a few research articles to her credit. A
researcher with an incisive mind that ferrets out obscure astrological
gems. She has authored the chapter on "Drekk.1na and Siblings" in
this book.
Mrs. Meera Srlva.stva- A senior researcher. She lsan excellent
Bhajan Singer. She has a sharp mind and quick uptake despite the
housewife pressures. She finds time to peruse astrology books. A
regular subscriber of articles to the journal. She has contributed the
chapter on "Drekkana and Disease" in this book.
Shrl Avlnash Verma • A Charted Accountant who got the
Gold Medal In his batch. His work leaves him little dmc to devote to
Astrology. He has the authored the chapter on "Drekkana and
Navamsha" In this book.
II is gratifying to note that group researches pioneered by us
has resulted In group of astrologers coming together to write a book.
The first such book was ·Sadhe Saatl · why such fright?. later
came "Famous Women" authored only by women astrologers and
edited by me In the International Year of Women ZOO I.
Then came a mono~rraph on "Simhast Guru* (or Jupiter In
Leo") and Marriages' by seven woman authors.
A book on divisional charts guided by Col. A.K. Gour is a
welcome addition. This book would open new areas of research and
would enable practising astrologers as well as the students in
sharpening their astrological skills.

Section One
Introduction
Tbis exhaustive treatise on Drekkana has been laid out In two
parts.ln Part •I the treatise covers all the available data on the Drekkana
as given the classics. There is a brief over view of the basics of
Astrology. There Is then a detailed discussion of the Divisional charts.
containing the method of constructing the Divisional charts along
with the specific areas that .ue the domain of the sixteen divisional
charts followed by a brief discussion on how these charts are analysed.
The treatise In the next step deals with the Drekkana. It lists all
available data of this divisional chart. The Drekkana lordships, the 36
Drel<kanas and their ·swaroop· (description of the imagined pictorial
identity). The categorization of Drekkanas by their nature IAyudh,
Pakshl. Chatuspad etc.) Drekkanas and the body parts. The results of
planets In different Drekkanas. the results of planers In the Drekkana
of another planet and the result of planets In different Navamsha in
each of the 36 Drekkanas is also culled and collated from the classics.
The attempt Is to collect all the details about tills Divisional chart
In one place.
In 1\ut·ll of the treatise the practical predictive application of
the Drekkana Is given. Its Chapters are:·
(a) Drekk.'n..' llnd Its nature as given to It by Narad. Agastya and
Durvasa the three ruling deities of the Drekkanas.
(b) Drekkana and the Yogas.
(c) Use of Rashl, Drekkana and Navamsha.

(i) Varanasi Drekkana and KNcllT1 J'hal,,
This. Is also an attempt where the eminent Scholars of Astrology
have contributed a chapter each thus bringing the collective strength
to understand and explain the subtlety and complexity of this
extremely Important though less used chart.
cbapter
Drekkana - General
Brihat Parashar Hora Shastra. the premier "Granth" from which
we learn astrology commences with a prayer to Sage Parashar by his
disciple Maitreya.
The prayer Is -

Namastasmay bhagwate bodhrupaye sarvadha

Parmanad kandaye guruveagiandwanseneya.
Loosely translated this would mean:- "My salutation to the
Guru who makes me understand complicated issues, who gives
eternal joy and who destroys my "Agyan".
We are starting our endeavour of understanding the various
nuances of Drekkana by praying to Parashar Rlshl with the Maitrya
prayer.
In this chapter the basics of Astrology are enumerated for ease
of reference.

horoscope. Each of the twelve houses has its own specific area of life:
signifying very special activities. A brief of the same is identified in the
table A.
The said significations of the houses/bhavas are only an
indication of major area. There are numbers of significations relating
to each house/bhava.
B. Signs/Rashis - Signs/Rashis are the next grouping of
horoscopic firmament. Every sign signifies numbers of characteristics
and represents one of the houses In the horoscope. In all there are

Name of each of the signs speaks something about its nature.
The symbols further signify them. Again the significations are not
comprehensive.
C. Planets - Major thrust area of horoscopy Is the influence of
various planets on the creation of Almighty In the universe.
Sdentlnc.llly. this influence is experienced in terms of gravitational
power In the modern days yet the great seers visualized this In their
time with the help of their divine power. There are seven planets:
Sun. Moon. Mars. Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn and two
shadowy planets: Rahu and Ketu. These arc considered In Vedic
Astrology of great Influence on the mankind. The western world
includes the three farthest planets: Uranus. Neptune and Pluto.
Uranus. Neptune and Pluto are at such a distance that their Influence
on human being Is considered insignificant. In a fresh dispensation
Planet Pluto has been deprived of the status accorded to It as a
Planet. It Is too small hence it Is no longer eligible to be treated as a a

signs. A clear picture emerges with the help of the table D.

Some seers consider that there are 28 constellations not 27.
Abhljlt Nakshatra Is considered as the 28th constellation. Some area
of 21st and 22nd constellations viz. Uttarashadha and Shravana
respectively Is taken create this. Abhljlt Nakshatra Is thus counted as
the 22"d Nakshatra and the counting further goes on from Shravana.
Segment of Uttarashadha. Abhijit and Shravana constellations is

recast as shown in the table Dl.

Each of these constellations has its own characteristics and
significations and blesses an individual with the qualities depending
upon the constellations of Ascendant and also that of Moon. Similar
improvisation of the nature of other planets Is experienced provided
due weight is extended to their constellation.
In India, name of an individual Is selected traditionally on the
basis of Moon's constellations. more specifically on the basis of Pada/
Charan of Moon's constellations. Every Pada/Charan is assigned an
alphabet of Hindi Varnamala and logically first letter of a child's name
is identified with the alphabet representing the particular Pada of
Moon's constellations in which the child has taken birth. Similarly
Dasha/Period is also identified with Moon's constellations.

In fine-tuning the analysis of a horoscope especially when events
signified by the house arebeingjudged. House-wise fixed significators
are detailed In table E.
These significators provide additional scope to Improve the
analysis of a particular horoscope. The significators help In fine-tuning
the analysis and prediction related to the house concerned. One
school of thought considers that horoscope should be analyzed
taking the slgnlflcator as Ascendant along side the birth Ascendant.
Moon Ascendant etc.
F. Non Luminous Planets/Aprakasha Grahas- Alongside the
nine planets the Vedic Astrology does consider existence of some
sub-pl.mets which are not luminous as the seven planets are. They
also play significant role in analysis of horoscope. These r>lanets are
also overlorded by some of the representative planets. They are
dMded In two grour>s namely Gulikadl and Dhoom.,dl as detailed In

vlghatl or 6 minutes. Its calculation depends upon Sun's placement in
a particular sign I.e. moveable, fixed and dual. It does help In malting
our system of analysis finer.
H. Dasha - The vast vista ofVedic Astrology does not rest with

15
Drekkana • General The Drekkana

the static analysis of hou~. signs, pl.l!lets. sub-planets, significators

etc. which indicates the promise. II moves further In the dynamic
area keeping pace with the changing planetary positions to identify
the time of occurrence of an event. This Is done on the basis of Dasha
period running in a particular horoscope at that time. There are
numbers of Dashas of planets or signs. Some are conditional while
others are general. Vlmshottml Is the most prevalently used Dasha
system In the Vedic Aslrology. Yoglnl Dasha and laimini Char Dasha
are other non-condltlon..'\.1 Dashas used in different pans of India. ln
any Dasha. there Is specified system of calculation. Some begin with
the lord of Moon's constellations at the time of birth whereas some
begin from the Ascendant. Events related to the Dasha Lord I Dasha
Sign take place during their Dasha period. In this way a static promise
is converted Into a timed event.
Transit - The static promise as indicated in the horoscope duly
prepared for delivery by dynamism of Dasha Is delivered by proper
transit. Transit Is the dynamic position of planets at the time of
occurrence of the event. Transit is the delivery boy who delivers the
fruits of the promise. An adverse transit of planet may nullify even an
outstanding promise and sometime momentarily decision on the
basis of transit may prove favorable to the individual. Thus the
effectivity of transit is not less in any manner.

Divisional Horoscopes
(Varga Charts)
The divisional charts are unique feature of Hindu Astrology. Our
Rbhls have gifted to us the divisional charts so that we can chart our
way amidst the complexities of human lives and relations
Take the case of the birth of twins they have similar horoscopes in
cesarean births the twins separated by 5 odd minutes will have an
identical natal chart. h is the divisional charts. which would pin point
the difference In two lives.
The divisional charts also throw light on our relationships, be it
the spouse, siblings or parents. Our religious lndln.,tlons. our rebellions,
our anger, our langu.'8CS, our tears all are contained In the "divisional
charts"
The Natal chart In the display of the planetary position at the time
of the birth of an Individual. These planets are displayed In the 12
zodiacal signs (Rashls). Fhm the natal chart our learned seers
developed 'Shodash Vargas", The 16 divisional charts. Each charts is
meant to delineate Is specific area with precision. The details are given
in table I.
The divisional charts must be analysed to guln the correctness of
any prediction.
Sage l'ai<N1ar has emphasized that "Shodash Vargas"- The 16
divisional charts be studied to competently analyse horoscope. He
however said that If time is of essence then " Dash Vargas" could be
used, however. "Shad Vargas" Is the basic minimum. No astrologer
should venture a prediction without the study of "Shad Vargas". These
'"Shad Vargas" are Natal. Hora. Drekkana. Nav.vnasha. Dwadashamsha
and Trimshansh. Sage Parashar went a step further and he
mathematically defmed the corresponding value of a divisional chart
on a 20 point scale. This Is caUed the "VVrruhop.\k Bala-. Virnshopak
means twenty.
The Vlmshopak BaJa of Shad Vargas. Sapt Vargas. Dash Vargas
and Shodash Vargas Is as given in Table 2.

Divisional Horoscopes (VIrg.J Charts) The Drekkana

The grouping of divisional charts In clusters of 6 (Shad Vargas). 7

(Sapat Vargas). I 0 (Das Vargas). &. 16 (Shodash Vargas) and allocation
of points on a twenty point scale Indicates the following :-
(a) In Shad Vargas &. Saptavargas the natal chart has maximum
points 6 and S respectively. Navamsh has one point less in Shad
Vargas It has S points but only half a point separates the
Navamsh and Rash! In Sapatvarga. This is what makes it
mandatory for an astrologer to study the Navamsha In as much of
detail In which he studies the Natal Chart.
(b) In Dashavargas and Shodash Vargas. Shashtly,\nsh gets the
highest bllllng at 5 and 4 points respectively. The Rashi is pushed
to the second place at 3 and 3.5 points. Shastyansh can. however
only be used a horoscope where the time of birth is actuality
known, which Is a rare occurrence.
In our normal astrological work we should use minimum three
divisional charts that Is the Natal and the Navamsha charts along with
the divisional chart specific to the task In hand. For example for
education related Issues use Natal. Navamsha and Chauthlrvimshansh.
For occupation related Issues use Natal. Navmasha and Dashmansh.
for children use Natal, Navamsha and the Saptmansh and so on.

Casting of Varga Charts/Divisional Charts

There may be different thoughts of schools for casting of
divisional charts using different methodologies In this regard. However.
standard methodology of casting of Varga Charts Is what Maharishi
Parashara enunciated In his Brahat p,,rashara Hora Shastra. The
methodology In this regard Is quite simple In blo-model taWes except
for Trlmshamsha. taWe for which casting goes separately for odd and
even signs as given below:
I. Identify Sign and Longitude of Ascendant
2. See across in the Blo-Noodel Tables of Sign and Longitudes and
determine the lnteiSectlon/box in which the relevant degree falls.
These tables are aHached at Annexure I at the end.
3. The Sign number for the cross junction will be the sign of the
Ascendant
4. Placement of other M.lnets shall also ben nallzed In the same way
as was used to Ascendant
5. Arrange the Ascendant and the Planet In a horoscoplc framework.
This Is the Varga Chart.
6. In the Trimshamsha the scheme of casting of divisional chart is
different. The sign/degree taWe are sub divided according to odd
~ Drekkana Divisional Horoscopes (Varna Chans)

and even signs of the b."\Sic horoscope. The Trimshamsha position

of the Ascendant and the Planets Is to be Wought out separately
for odd and even signs Planets. according to the table X-12 the
detailed casting is attatched as annexurc:s at the end.
With the casting of the divisional horoscopes, stage Is set for
analysis and delineation of the Varga charts.
The Vargottama horoscope: A horoscope Is vargottama when the
ASC In Natal chart and the Navamsdha is the same sign (Rashi). This is
a source of Strength to the ASC and ensures healthy body. A strong
ASC also ensures that the results of Yogas and Dashas are likely to be
enjoyed in full by the lataka.
Angles and Trines are the basic pillars of a horoscope. It is
generally said a Vargottam Horoscope has multifold strength, reason
being all the bhavas are maintaining the status quo: not losing
strength in any way as far as their position Is concerned ln the
Navamsha. An individual having such a combination finally succeeds
in his deeds. Apparently it could be easily inferred that Kendras and
Konas of a horoscope should not move to the malefic/neutral Bhavas
In divisional horoscopes. If they do so, they lose strength and the
Individual falls to gain the reward of the promises enshrined in the
Rashi chart.
Ascendant Is the prime Bhava of any horoscope. Therefore, it
should never move outside the periphery of Kendras and Konas in the
divisional horoscope If we are unable to have a Vargottam horoscope
the Ascendant's placement in better houses would give strength to
the horoscope.
Vargottama Planet - A planet in the same Rashi (Sign) in natal
and Navamsha Is Vargottama. This Is a source of strength to the
planet. This strength permits the planet to weld Its significations with
its lordship In natal and navamsha and then give beneficial results to
the lataka.
The Vargottama status pertains only to Natal and Navamsha. If
Asc. is in the same rashi In natal and any other Division chart it is not
Vargottama. Such a placement ensures mutual liking for the events of
that divisional chart and the fataka.

Position of planets of Rashi charts in divisional charts

Benefic planets placed In the benefic houses that Is In Kendras
and Konas and malefic planets malefic houses that Is in Trlk,
Trishadayas or even Neutral houses do good. This view holds good
not only in respect of R.lShl but also In the Vargas. All pf.mets, except

the lumln.1rlcs. rule two Signs. The lordship of two signs also becomes
the lordship of two houses once the horoscope is cast and the Asc.
gets known. An planets have power to dispense the results of the
houses that they own. The results conform to the slgnlnCdtlom of the
planet the house and the sign in that house. These results are ftn1her
modulated by the significations of the houses and sign where the
planet Is placed.

Analysis ofVarga Chart

The divisional charts are an unique gl ft of our Rlshls. These charts
are the derivatives of the natal chart. The divisional charts have been
assigned specific responsibilities we know - Dwadashamsh is for
parents and Hora ftr wealth. The divisional charts ffiuminate, expand,
explain their specified area, within the bounds of the natal chart.
The lnter·se Importance of the divisional charts is Indicated by the
Vimshop..'\k BaJa. Consider the Shadvargas. They are Rash! (Natal
Chart). Hora. Drekkana. Navamsha. Dwadashamsh and Trimshansh.
Their Vlmshopak BaJa is 6.2.4.5.2. and I respectively The Natal Chart
and the Navamsha chart at 6 and 5 Vlmshopak points ate not only
nearly equal but are indespensibie as they account of II Vlmshopak
points out of the twenty points allocated to these six Vargas. It is thus
in1perative that a horoscope be examined only when at least the Natal
chart and the Navamsha are available. Ideally Shadvargas are required
to be used. It Is worth noting that the divisional charts need a correct
WI1h time and the finer divisions like Vlmshilmsh, Ch.1turvlmshansh
and Shastiansh can only be used if the birth time I:\ accurate.
In addition to the Vlmshopaka BaJa of the divisional chart Rishl
Parashar has given us a method of calculating the Varg.1.Vbhva bala
Clrtf- flntlllfl'l) of each planet for each Varga.
This method Is as explained below -

Notes
1. Panchdha·M.lltrl of the Natal chart Is applicable to all divisional
charts.
2. V.uga·VIshwa Bala needs to be worked out for each Varga
Separately.
Let us take an example
Work out the Pancbda Maitri of the horoscope given below:·
Once the Panchda maitri Is worked out the planetary strength in
divisional chart Is worked out as under:
(a) Note the Vlmshopak Bala allocated to that Varga. Call it

Swavlshwa.
(b) The planets Vlshwa Bala for that Varga based on lhe planets
maltrl with It! dlsposltor.
(c) a x b above are multiplied. The multiplied sum Is divided by 20.
(d) The result Is the Varga Vimshopak Bala of the planet.
(e) The varga Vlmshopakbala of all the vargas areadded to give the
Shadvarga strength of the planet.
See the eGmple:

Wnahopak BaJa x Varga Vishwabala

20 Varga Vimshopak Bala

I. Sun· Natal Chart

Vlmshopak Bala of Natal Chart Is 6. This Is to be multiplied by
Varga Vlshwa Bala of Sun and then divided by 20. The Sun Is in
Saturn's House who Is Neutral to him in the Panchda Maitri as worked
out above, The Varga Vlshwa bala for a neutral planet as per Varga
Vlshwa taWe I is I 0. So we have the equation : 6 x I 0 I 20 • 3.

23
Divisional Horoscopes (Varga Charts) The Drekkana

The maximum bala allocated to the Natal chart is 6 hence 3

denotes 50%. The result giving capability of the Sun Is 50% In the
Natal Chart.

2. Navamsha
2.5 is 50% of 5 the strength (Vimshopak Bala) allocated to the
Navamsha. So Sun result giving capability in Navamsha would also be
50%. (5 X 10/ZO = 2.5)

3. Drekkana
4 is the bala of Drekkana Sun result giving capability is 3.6.This is
72%. (4 X 8/20 - 3.6)

4. Dwadashamsha
Result giving capacity is L8when maximum possible Is 2. This is
90%. (Z X 18/ZO. 1.8)

5. Trimshamsha
5 of 1 Is 50%. (1 x 10/ZO • .5)

6. Horo

The detailed working of one Planet (Sun) is shown for ease of
understanding. A summarised method for this planet and one more
planet (Mars) is as under:-

Sun
I. Natal Chart: 6 x 10 /ZO- 3. Sun is in Sat's house. Sat in Panchda
maitri is Neutral. 50%
2. Navamsha: 5 x 10/20 a 2.5. Sun is in Venus's house. Venus is

3. Drekkana : 4 x 18/ 20 - 3.6. Sun in Jupiter's hosue. ]up is

5. Trimshamsh: I x 10/20 = .5. Sun is in Venus house. 50%
6. Hora: 2 x 10 I 20 - 1. Sun in Moon's house. Moon is neutral.

Note: The result giving capaWIIty in each varga Is Indicated in
percentages.
We now have the strength (BaJa) of a planet In two measures. The
first measure of strength pertains to all the Divisional Charts for Sun It is
10.4 Vimshopak 8.'11<1.5 and for Mars it is 17.3 Vlmshopak Balas. Suns
result giving capdty Is 54% and Mars result giving capacity Is 86%.
The second measure that has secured pertains to each divisional
chart. Sun in Natal Chart would give 50% resul1s where as Mars would
give I 0010 results.
The overall strength highlights the s.lgnlllcatlons of the planet and
the Varga specific strength highlights the planets result giving
capaWIIty In that Varga based on its Lordship and PAC relations.
The Vlmshopak Bala has provided a numerical Input to the
Interpretation of divisional charts. Its twin measures the Vlmshopak
Bala and the VMg.l Vlshwa Bala are akin to the Ashtakvarga where
there are SAV and Bhinashtak (BAV) balas and are to be used In similar
manner. Parashar Rlshl has stated that the Vlmshopak Bala and the
Varga Vlshw.l Balas are the "lzek.k" for the result giving capability of
planets during their Dashas.

Using the Divisional Charts

The Divisional Charts orignate from the Natal Chan. Each
divisional chart has its specific portfolio clearly spelled out. Bhava
Bhavesh and K.vak.\ (House. House Lord and the Significator) control
the link between the Natal Chan and concerned divisional chart.
A Divisional Chart is to be analysed In the same manner as the
Natal Chart. Independently and conjointly with the Natal Chart. The
following steps layout the process of analysing ,,divisional chart:
(a) Analyse Lagna and Lagna Lord ol the Divisional Chart
Independently. Lagna Lord of the Natal Chart Is compared with
Lagna Lord of the Divisional Chart for friendship. Mutal
Friendship promotes the significations of the divisional chart in

25
Divisional Horoscopes rvl'lll Charts) The Drekkana

the nre of the Jataka.

(b) Analyse the divisional chart treating the slgnlflc.ltor house as the
Lagna In concerned divisional chart. For example for Mother treat
the 4th house of Dwadashmasha as Lagna and analyse the chart.
(c) Transpose the slgnfficator house fords of Natal and concerned
divisional charts and discern their suength
(d) Analyse the strength of the significator In Natal as well the
divisional chart I.e. to know about younger siWings Mars needs
to be analysed In Natal as well as In the Drekkana chart.
(e) Transpose the significator planet of the Natal and divisional charts
In case of mother transpose Moon In the Natal and the
Dwadamsha charts and study lt.
(0 Synthesise the results with the condition of relevent House
Lord(s) of Natal and Divisional Chans.

Conclusion
The key to prediction lies in the divisional chart. If hlnt in the
divisional chart is not taken into account. one may fall In prediction.
Parashara himself said to read the divisional chart as an independent
chart. Its just like relationship. if we are good in our profession, its not
necessary that we may be good with our relationship. The same planet
can turn for best or worst in the Saptam.msh or Navamansh. The
planetary strength as given above should be considered before
making any prediction after properly analysing the divisional chart.
Out of 20 Vlmshopak Bala Natal. Drekkan and Navamsha account for
IS Vlmshopak Bala. So, how can we predict an event without atleast
analysing these three charts and how many of us take this Into account
before predicting.
Prediction has no short cuts. One needs tot of patience in
astrology to analyse a chart.
We must give importance to what is given In our Classical books.
which Is the secret to successful predictions.
We are confident that serious astrologers will use these finer
techniques and IMII come up with its applicability for future researches.

The Drekkana
The Drekkana Divisional chart of a horoscope Is primarily an
elaboration of third house of the horoscope. The 3~<~ house signifies
Siblings. Courage, Efforts, Vlkram. Valour, Talents, Hobbies.
Perseverance, Fitness amongst others. The Drekkana Is also used to
delineate "K.,r,,mphala".
Every sign of 30" each is subdivided In three parts of 10" each to
identify them as First Second and Thinl Drekkana. The first Drekkana
lies between 0 - 10". second Drekkana between 1()4 -20° and third
between 20" 30'. The computation of I" Drekkana begins from the
sign Itself. of the 2"" Drekkana from the 5* sign from It and of third I
Drekkana from the 9* sign. The following table e1aborates various

and third from 9* sign from itself. There are 36 Drekkana In all. each

Each of the 36 Drekkanas has Its own lord. Lordship Is again
needed by one planet out of the seven. A very Interesting feature of
the lordship concept Is that lords of all the Drekkanas of a Sign are
friends In themselves. This 1s due to the reason of trln.ll movement of
the Drekkanas. First Drekkana of each Rash! is headed by the Rashi lord

The Drekkana The Drekkana

Drekkana Is a very Important divisional chart links the present life

with the past and future lives. A common person has no consideration
or aspirations to know about past or future as he has to struggle within
the domain of the present life. However, it has its own significance
and meaning. A linkage between the three lives can help us to
formulate the course of present life with a way to extinguish the
negativities of the past life and move on the course of framing the
future life. The basic (rashi) horoscope is what one's previous life/lives
has made for the individual. whereas the Drekkana indicate about the
present life.
The Drekkana horoscope which represents the trinal blending of
the four forces of life: Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. Dharma Is
represented by I. 5, 9 houses. Artha is represented by 2. 6. 10
houses, Kama by 3, 7. I I whereas Moksha by 4, 8, 12 houses. What
an interesting blending I The four forces of the llfe are trinally linked.
indicate the basic strength of these forces wherein one of the houses
represents the present and the other two represents past and future.
Every activity of the life has its meaning for the three lives. Really an
Interesting feature! In the Drekkana chart these four forces maintains
the similar equation and this happens only in this divisional chart,
nowhere else. It suggests the signification of the Drekkana chart with
the allotment of second highest numerical number in Shadvarga,
Saptavarga and in other Varga groupings

Delineation of Drekkana
Most of the classics suggest that Varga charts/horoscopes are
precisely the expansion of one of the 12 houses of basic horoscope say
Hora of 2"" house. Drekkana of 3'u house, Dashamsha of the I 0"' house
and so on. Not much detail is available in classics on the delineation of
Vargas.
Different viewpoints emerge on the basis of reading of number of
classics for delineation of Drekkana. The Drekkana chart helps to reveal
the significations related to third house of the basic horoscope In a
much finer manner to be more skillful in coming out with the
prediction in the specific area. The prime most significations are to
ascertain or judge the valour, bravery, courage, resourcefulness,
industriousness, determination of the Individual. This also reveals
influence and impact of co-borns preferably the younger ones on the
life of the individual. It does so because it is considered expansion of
third house.

almost at llar with Navamsha. Therefore this may be read or
delineated as an independent horoscope similar to tllat of basic
one IR.\Shll. Independent assessment does not mean tllat resuJt

Identity of basic horoscope is unique. No Varga chart can take it
over. However. Improvisation on the promises of b.\Sic horoscope

Independent assessment ofDrekkana Is to be done with a nomml
methodology of delineation of horoscopes.

While delineating a Drekkana chart these points need be
assessed so as to come out with the prediction with these help to
settle queries in the particular area of activities In the life of the native.
Question arises from where to begin with? It is well established fact
that any analysis of Astrology has to begin with the ascendant or the
first house of the horoscope. Ascendant is the body of the Individual
whose chart Is under examination. This is irrespective of the Varga
being analyzed. Therefore the prime most analysis, to be made by an
Astrologer relates to the ascendant of the concerned Varga chart from
all angles Including classification. Identity, significations. Avasthds,
status etc. This should be related to the basic chart. The favourable co-
relation indicates positive aspects, whereas unfavourable status and
co-relation reveals the negativities. Similarly one must relates the
ascendant of the basic chan in the similar fashion In the Varga chart.
Once the status of the ascendant and their co-relation has been
analyzed one must move to the similar analysis of their Lords
Individually and relatively: Individually in the chart ltselfand relatively
in the other chart - basic chart In Varga and Varga chart In basic. This
analysis sorts out numbers of points present therein and helps the
Astrologer In prediction in a more vibrant fashion. Certain tips on this
are given as under:

world with silver spoon in one's mouth.

5. Placement of ascendant lord of basic horoscope and Drekkana

However, the negative connectivity will prove deterioration In
the above referred status position. Good connections and status
always provides good and favourable results whereas bad status

ma!cftc planet bring In all these sufferings. However. any association
with ~neflcs both natural as well as functional reduces the
maleficscence and thus help in the extreme situations and paves the
way for survival and movement. Avasthas from different categories do
contribute favourably and unfavourably.
Similar analy~s is warranted for other eleven houses both In basic
chart and Drekkana chart to assess their lndlvldulll and relative
positions which would be further helpful In predicting the probable
results related to those houses.
There are 12 signs from Aries to Pisces. each one having three
Drekkanas thus there are 36 Drekkanas. What was the need to divide
each sign Into three equal parts? Every degree of a planet has Its
significance. Planet has its own potential to give results at every
degree starting from 0 second to ending on 30 degree. Thus every
Drekkana of tc n degree of each sign has different meaning and result
orientation The standardized version of result giving potential of all
the 36 Drekkan.u are tabulated as under which Is based upon their
identification and skeleton details available In various classics and
documentaries.

Moon In Drekkana
Moon Is sub-planet of earth .u1ronomlc.1lly. She Is not a full-
fledged planet. Still It has much more significance than the planets In
Astrology. Why? Moon Is closest to the earth. Moon is the fastest
moving entity In thr: group of seven pl.1ncts in astrology. It changes a
sign In 2 or 2 days at the most. She changes her Nakshatra in the range
of 24 hrs depending upon Its pace of movement: normal; slow or
faster (atlcharl). She is given status of the planet at par with the Sun.
the core of the solar system. These qualities of Moon make it the most
influential planet of our ur~. Mental Inclination of an individual
depends on the Moon primarily. There is no dearth of Astrologers who
give prediction only on the basis of movement of Moon in 12 houses/
12 signs and 27/28 Nakshatras. She Is also considered one of the
Ascendant. And she is also considered prudent to analyse the
horoscope-taking Moon as Ascendant. Most of the important Dasha
systems are based on Moon's longitude. AppiUently, it becomes
essential to analyse the horoscope from Moon.
When Moon Is considered so important in natal horoscopy. her
importance definitely stands lnt.'\Ct in the analysis of divisional
horoscopes. In Drekkana divisional horoscopes Moon moves in every

The 22nd Drekkana

Death is one of the certainties of life. In rashl chart to analyse
death one has to see the following points:
1. Death lntllctlng Planets (Markesh). Standard identification of
Markesh is the planet who is the Lord of Second and Seventh
houses
2. Malefic planets
3. Trik lords : lords of 6"' ,8"', 12"' houses
4 22nd Drekkana Lord.
5. Operation of Dasha of death lnfiictlng/maleHc planets influencing
the Ascendant and the Ascendant Lord -Moon/Moon Sign Lord.
6. Concentration of malefic energies on the Ascendant/Ascendant
lord in transit.
7. Weak Ascendant lord of Drekkana on being debilitated combust
inimically placed etc. either in rashi or in Drekkana or in both
causes death in infancy. Connection of benefics Improves the
status of the weak planets competent to cause death.
8. One may lntllct death on himself: Suicide. Association of
ascendant lord of Drekkana or 3"' lord of natal chart with the 6"',
8"' or IZ"' houses in either of chart makes one susceptible to
suicidal tendencies. However association of benefics modifies
such tendencies.
9. Sun or Mars as Ascendant lord if placed in a strong eighth house
one may be prone to burns, heat, affliction, electric shocks etc.
10. Medicinal reaction, food poisoning may cause death if ascendant
lord is placed in 8"' house and associated with Jupiter and or
Saturn
Among these factors one of the important factors is 22""
Drekkana. This is basically the derieved Drekkana of the eighth house.
This can be calculated by placing the Ascendants longitude in the
eighth house and working out the Drekkana. It plays very crucial role
in giving death or death like problems in the life of the individual. The
number of malefic influences on this ZZ"" Drekkana provides the clue
to mark the crucial period. How 22nd Drekkana influences the death
when it falls in different Drekkanas of various signs? Kalyana Verma in
his classic Saravali has given the clues In this regard which are
tabulated as under:

Tri Birth Combinations and Drekkana

The trines in any horoscope have much more significance.
Primarily one will come in this world (ascendant) with some past
karmas (fifth house) and take with him while leaving this world (ninth
house). The totality of the life is linked with these three trines. In
Drekkana charts the houses and the planets therein moves ln trinal
way - a house or planet therein can either be vargottam or move in
fifth and ninth from its own position. Every activity of life signified by
any house or planets therein is thus connected with the past lives,
present life, and life after death (next birth). Different classics have
given clues on this aspect. Thus the Drekkana chart has rightly been
selected as an indicator ol three janams. Sage Mantreshwar in Ph£\1
Deepika has come out with a revelation to identily the past and luture
birth of an individual.
Past Births: Ninth house and its lord, planets placed in the ninth
house gives clues about the past/previous births. The connecting
planets being benelics and strong indicates prosperous and wealthy
individual enjoying high place in his professional field and in society in
the previous birth. This status cnanges with the association with
malefic weak planet. What happens to the ninth lord In the Drekkana
charts If it improves, it indicates strength of body and mind thus
physical and mental traits ol the individual in the past birth? The status
position, strength and weakness of the ninth lord ol rashi chart
indicate the category of living beings represented by the individual in
his past birth:

c In neutral sign of the ascendant lord

Future Birth: 5'h house has been considered a house for future
indications of birth by sage Mantreshwar. Strength and weakness of 5 111
house. its lord, and planet associated with 5 111 house and associates of
5* lord both in terms ol house and planets indicate about the next
birth. A lew people are always worried about their luture birth. They
too want to act in this birth so as to improve their future birth. Can they
do? Mythlogically and mentally they do believe that our karmas in the

48
 The Drekkana

present birth do play vital role in this regard. Apart from this kanna
based Improvement we can get and Idea In advance at the time of
birth of an individual about the prospects of the next birth. A standard
version of categorization of future birth Is similar to that of past birth
with a difference that lordship of fifth house plays that Important role.

Mythlogkally it Is said that our sages and seers were trl k.t/.JsYd-
they were able to see and to know about all the three births - past,
present and future. Dining the two births there may be time gap.
Where one will live during this Intervening period. Our seers through
their d/vy,l drlshthl were able to know or pinpoint abode of the
Individual after the death but prior to the next birth. Precisely this
depends on the of 5"' house/5"' lord and the planets Influencing them.
If more than one planet Is Influencing the 5"' house/5* lord, the
strongest among them will decide the Issue. The abode or the
Individual during the Intervening period have been Identified by the
seers In the following manner:
Tabel- Abode after Death
Strongest planet Abode of the Individual after Death
Sun Shlv:alok (abode of lord Shiva)
Moon Shivlllok
Mars Bhoolok (Earth l
Mercury Vaikunthalok (abode of lord Vis.hllul
Jupiter Brahmalok (abode of lord Bhrahm.l
Venus lndralok I Swarga (abode of lord lnclra)
Sa tum Yamlok (abode of lord Yoma)
Rahu Bhoolok (Any other country/region on earth)
Ketu Narak (helll
Similarly it can also be identified from wlhlch place/abode the
lndMdual has come in this world. The Identification system will follow
the same criteria as Is applicable In the case of Intervening period of
death and next birth. The point of difference Is that Instead of the
connectivity of 5* house/5'" lord we have to see connectivity of 9*
house~ lord.
This relationship shows past, present, future births shall not only

49
The Drekkana the Drekkana

depend upon the 9* house/9* lord. ascendant/ascendant lord, 5"'

house/5* lord of rashl chan but also in Drekkana chart In absolute as
well as relative term. Absolutely when the consideration of Individual
charts takes place whereas relatively when the two charts are
interconnected on the similar consideration. For example to ascertain
past birth one sees 9* house/9"' lord and associated planets therewith
In tashl chart Itself and Drekkana chart itself besides their
lnterconnectlvlty I.e. 9* house/9* lord of rash! chart In Drekkana chart
and of Drekkana chart In rashi chart. This Is the final confirmatory point.
Trijanma Yoga: Trijanma means three births. This includes past
birth, present birth and the next birth. Ascendant/ascendant lord deals
with the present birth. 5* house/5"' lord deals with the next birth
where as 9* house/9"' lord deals with the past birth. An association In
any form astrologically of the said three houses/lords and other
planets connecting each other will indicate that the three births of an
individual relates to one place. It means the individual have enjoyed
the patronage of only one family in all the three births. He is
descendants of himself. This connectivity should not only be seen in
rashi chart but also be related in the Drekkana chart and Inter-chart
relationship will cement the point

DREKKANA AMD
NAVAMSHA
Drekkana represents one third part of Ascendant and planets on
the basis of their longitude whereas Navamsha represent one ninth
part of the same Ascendant and planets. Can these two be Inter-linked
excluding the Birth Horoscope to make the prediction finer than
otherwise? Definitely Yes. Both originate from the same Birth
Horoscope. Linkage Is Inherent. Here point Is can they be linked In
themselves only without going back to Birth Horoscope. One sign
house of 30 degree is sub-dMded In three parts m Drekkana to make
out 36 Drekkanas for 12 signs/houses. Whereas one sign I house of 30
degree is subdivided In nine parts In Navamsha to make out 108
Navamsha. This further points out that Navamshas are three times the
Drekkanas. App.llel'ltly, each Drekkana covers three Navamshas.
Certainly, each Navamsha represents something different. Say Aries
sign, Aries Drekkana and Aries Navamsha signifY differently than the
significations of Aries sign. Aries Drekkana and Taurus Navamsha. So
are the significations of Aries sign. Aries Drekkana and Gemini
Navamsha and so on. Thus a finer prediction Is bound to corne and
reveal much closer view of a horoscope. Here one must know the
significations of each of the Drekkana and each of the Navamsha
lndMdually and relatively Identification and significations of Drekkanas
have been discussed In the previous chapter of Drekkana.

Drekkana and nature

The Drekkana chart Is an important entity In Hindu astrology and
Is of prime significance In natal chart reading. Though all the divisional
charts are inherently linked to Natal chart. l11e Drekkana chart ranks
third among the Vargas. In term Vlmshopaka (out of gross value of 20
units). Parashara has allotted 6 units to Natal chart, 5 units to
Navamsha chart and 4 units to Drekkana chart and among other 3
Vargas, 5 units. Therefore It has become important to study Drekkana
chart along with the Natal chart and the Navamsha.
According to the ancient rare work the Drekkana is mooladhara,
ruled by the Sun. and represents the Bhurloka (the earth). Its prime
concern is the same as that of the Sun. Hence, the Lineage
(concerned) as well as the present status of the jataka, his appearance
and the characteristics, his temperament, nature, destiny, fortune,
nobility and worldly success, all full within the domain of the
Drekkana.

Meaning
The roots Drek' and 'Aana' mean to inspire, or to encourage, to
arouse Is the meaning of Drekkana.

Temperament and Drekkana

Parashara says Narad. Agastya and Durvasa are the three ruling
deities of the three respective Drekkana In each rashl. Person born In
first Drekkana may have traits like Narad and the person born In
second and third Drekkana may have traits like Agastya and Durvasa
respectively. Let us see the traits of these Seers. What do ruling deities
signify? Ruling deities have had certain significations of fueir own and
these significations have bearings on the lineage aptitude, ambitions

The Drekkana Drekkana and Nature

and present status of the individual.

Mythological Traits of Narad - The Seer

Narad Is easily recognizable figure INith "' lute In one hand and a
pointed and knotted tuft of hair in the center of the otherwise dean •
shaven SG.lfp, plays a subsidiary but a very lmport.Ult rote in numerous
mythological stories and religious scriptures of the Hindus. The word
'Nara' means knowledge useful to mankind and Da' means a giver".
So 'N.vad' means the one who gives useful knowledge to mankind
and guides It on the right path. In Bhagwat-Geeta Bhagwan Krishna
says Devrlshlnam cha Narad ('Geera ' 12/6) of the Dcvrlshl I am
Narad. Devrlshls are celestial Missionaries. Devrlshls Narad often plays
the deliberate fool and uses this ploy to guide the deluded mortals to
the blessings of heaven.
Narad was a musician of first order. He always loved to 51ng
songs praising the glory of Narayana. It Is said of Narad that he was the
inventor of the musical instrument VE.ENA. He played on hls Vee\a.
which was named 'MAHATI'. Among the Dcvrlshh;', Narad Is one of
the holiest. He commanded the respect ol alL It was his habit to travel
and to go round preaching to people, uttering his words of wisdom
and telling people stories carrying an ethical message. All loved him·
be It Gods. demons or human beings
He had one weakness • that of disclosing to Gods and Demons.
the secrets about each other. however for welfare of the shrlshtl. Gods
and Demons had natural hatred for each other. Narad's deeds often
created trouble and friction among Gods. Demons and Humans. and
such friction often led to war. Hence Narad acquired the name.
'KALAHAPRIYA' or the lover of quarrels. Narad's Intentions were to
espouse a good cause. It was his constant desires that bad people
should be punished for their deeds that the haughty ones should learn
their lessons and the good should live happily.
Narad Is a wtll'lderer. traveling around ail the three worlds:
Swargaloka. Bhurloka and Patalloka. There Is an interesting story about
this. The children of DAKSHABRAHMA were called HARYASHWAS.
One day Dakshabrahma called them to his side and said: "0 my
children! Observe penance and you will derive strength and spiritual
splendor. Later you must get married and lead a contended life.' In
response to the command of the father, the children went to the
Himalayas and commenced a rigorous penance near the NARAYANA·
SARAS. Narad happened to go there. ·o sons of Dakshabrahma. why
at all are you observing such a penance? There Is no loy In married life.

77
Drekkana and Nature The Drekkana

You must develop devotion merely to get lord. Our aim must be to
escape from the sorrows of family life. Must you observe penance only
to get trapped In misery? Practice renunciation. aspire for deliverance."
Saying thus, Narad went away. The advice of Narad made a
tremendous Impact on the minds of the children of Daksha. They took
an oath not to marry. This news upset Daksha. He called his other
children who were named SHABALASHWAS, and Instructed them
properly and sent them for penance. But. sure as ever, Narad came
and taught them too the ways of renunciation.
Dakshabrahma's anger knew no bounds. He said to Narad: '0
Narad, It was my desire that my children should marry and lead a
happy household life. But you interfered and misled them. Don't you
have any other occupation? I am cursing you to remain a vagabond
eternally" Narad was not upset by the curse. The entire better indeed!
1 shall spend all my time wandering and preaching to the people he
determined.
Narad is said to have cajoled and motivated Vedavyasa and
Valmikl to write the lord's stories in the form of Mahabharata and
Ramayana respectively. Many Richas" of Rig-Veda are also attributed
to Narad Jl. He was the main motivating force behind the marriage of
Mata Parvatl to Lord Shiva. He only kept the morale of 'Dhruva' and
'Prahlada' intact during their trials and tribulations.
Another account says that he sprang from the forehead of
Brahma. Another Puranic story tells us that he was the son of Rlshl
'Kashyap' and one of the daughters of Daksha,
In fact Narad is the cause ofShri Ramavatara. (He cursed Vishnu li
for the illusion created by him - he was keen to marry and got a face of
monkey instead. (Reference: Ram Chari! Manas)

Mythological Traits of Agastya

Agastya was a great Rlshl. He is said to be born out of an earthen
pot (Kumbha). Therefore. he Is also known as Ghatodabhava. Kalsisuta,
Kumbhaja, Kumbha Sambhava. He was of short stature. His Tapas,
however, had power which no man could equal. He was not to marry
at all. But he saw his "Pitras" hanging upside down in Patala- awaiting
water from the son of Agastya. He therefore, created a wife for himself
taking the best from the Universe e.g. eyes of Gazalle, Black-hair of
Bhanwara (Black Bee) etc. Since the best was taken away (Lop) and a
new face (Mudra) was created therefore she was called Lopamudra.
She was brought up by King Vldharbha. She was a princess. Yet she
married him because of his Tapas. When God Siva married Parvati at
Kailasa all men and women went to Kailasa In the North to attend the
marriage. Therefore the weight of Kailasa became so heavy that the
earth here appeared to sink while its other end seemed to tilt upward.
Siva at once sent Agastya to the south to balance the weight. Agastya
was skillful. The word Agastya also means he who balanced the
Kailasa Mountain with his Skill.
Sage Agastya's story has been depleted in many Purans. He was
a man blessed with great divine and yogic power. Just to pay his
ancestral debt (Pitra Rina) he married to princess of Vldharbha,
Lopamudra. To fulfill the materialistic desires of her wife he did not
misuse his divine power. During the exile of lord Rama he helped him
to attain the divine weapon of Lord lndra. In Shiv Mahapurana there is
dear mention the Sage Agastya was the "ansha" of Lord Shiva. He had
witnessed the 'Vlrat Roopa' of Lord Shiva. There after he promoted
Shiv Bhakti in every comer of the world. He was blessed with such
divine yogic power that once he digested the demon Vatapl. During
the war between Rama and Ravna he gave the secret to Lord Rama for
winning the war by reciting the Aditya Hridya Strotram. He is
considered the father of Tamil language. There was an unusually hot
summer prevailing In South India and Sage Agastya went to Mount
Kailasa to ask Lord Shiva for water. Kaveri happened to be worshipping
Shlva at that time. Shiva picked her up and put her In Agastya's
kamandalu. The Sage thanked his benefactor and set out for home. To
uphold the laws of nature he crossed Vindhyachal Parvat. Vindhyachal
Parvat was his disciple. He was very proud and thought to become the

79
Drekkana and Nature The Drekkana
higher mountain so that he would stop the motion of Sun. He started
growing and the path of the Sun was endangered to be blocked.
Devtas prayed to Agastya, who went to Vindhyachal. Looking at his
Guru. Vindhyachal bowed down his head. Agastya asked him to
remain In that state till his return from the South. Agastya Rlshl never
returned and settled in the South and Vindhyachal remained In that
bowed head state. He bestowed South India with holy water of Kaveri
by setting her free from his kamandalu. He was a noble soul who was
more Inclined to uplift the entire society without violating any law of
nature. He drank the ocean in Chullu.

Main Characteristics of Agastya

I. Strong will power and determination.
2. Nature loving.
3. Highly knowledgeable and wise.
4. Adventurous but aloof (lonely): lives away from home.

Mythological Traits of Durvasa

Durvasa means Our (Dirty) Vasa (Clothes) - one who does not
mind wearing any kind of clothes. He was one of the three sons of
Risht Atri and mother Anusuya (other two are Datatreya and Chandrma).
Durvasa's blessings made Kunti an unwed mother of 'Karna'. Knowing
that her future husband would be unable to produce children of his
own. Durvasa gave this blessing to Kunti. Subsequently, Pandavas
were born due to the same blessing.
Sage Durvasa was a great ascetic. Once he was walking along
holding In his hand a garland of Rowers called SANTANAKA. INDRA
was coming from the opposite direction riding Airavata, the elephant.
Durvasa gave the garland, which had mystic powers to him. lndra did
not accept the gift with grace and placed garland on Alravata.'s head
from where it fell down and was trampled by Airavata. Durvasa lost his
temper and cursed: The pride of wealth has entered your head. Let
Lakshml forsake you." Then lndra realized his folly. He bowed to
Durvasa and sought his pardon. Durvasa said. 'Sri Vishnu will do you

80
The Drekkana Drekkana and Nature

good.' and left.

On account of Durvasa's curse. l.akshml left lndra and went
away. Because Lakshmi the Goddess of power, bravety, enthusiasm
and radiance left, Devendra's life became miserable. The Demons that
were waiting for such an opportunity, Invaded he.wen, defeated lndra
and Gods In war and occupied heaven. lndra lost his kingdom and hid
out of sight of the demons The Gods In due course lost their
Immortality and valor.
A number of years passed. lndra's teacher Brlhasp.1tl thought of
finding a way out for lndra's troubles. He went with the gods to
Brahma. who went to Vishnu with all of them and put forth the appeal
of the gods. Then Vishnu s.1id, don't fc.u, I will show you a way out.
The sea of milk must be churned. It Is very difficult lob. therefore. gain
the friendship of the demons and get their assistance. Use MANDARA
Mountain as a churning rod and VASUKI. the king of the serpents, as a
rope.
I will come to your assistance at the proper time. When the sea is
churned ambrosia will be produced. Let the Gods drink It and become
lmmort&\1. They will then attain superb strength. It will then be possible
for you to defeat the demons. When the sea Is churned, Lakshmi who
has disappeared will appear again. Her grace will be bestowed on
you. He consoled the gods and arranged for the churning of the sea.
They were able to get back their lost glory after Samudramanthan
which produced along other things/ Lakshmi and the Amrlta.
Ambarlsha was pious and devout and adhered firmly to the truth.
He performed a Yagna with such great devotional fervour that Lord
Narayana was pleased to bless him with 'SUDARSHNA . which means
'good vision', and which manifested as a wheel of prosperity, peace
and security to his kingdom. On sage Vashlshta's advice. Ambarisha
performed a yagna called the 'Dwadasi Vratha'. An Important rite to
be observed In this Vratha was that the king must start a fast on the
day prior to Dwadasi (the twelfth day after new moon) and break it at
the start of Dwadasi and feed all the people. As the moment of
breaking the fast was drawing near. the mighty sage Durvasa arrived
and was received with all honour by Ambarlsha. Durvasa agreed to
the king's request to be his honoured guest, and asked the king to
wait till he finished his bath in the river and returned. As the auspicious
moment approached when the king had to break hls fast to fulfil the
vow of the yagna, Durvasa did not turn up. On the advice of the sage
Vashlshta. the king broke his fast by taking a tulsl leaf with water. and
waited for the arrival of sage Durvasa to offer him food.

81
Drelrkana and Nature The Drekkana

Durvasa. who was well known for his short temper, felt that
Ambarisha had violated the respect due to a guest by breaking his fast
before the guest had taken his meal, and in his rage created a demon
to kill Ambarisha. Lord Narayana's "SUDARSHAN" Intervened,
destroyed the demon and started chasing Durvasa himself. Durvasa
went to Brahma and Shlva for protection. Both pleaded their inability
to save him. He went to Lord Narayana himself, who said that he
could do nothing as he was bound by the blemishlessness of the
devotion of Ambarisha and suggested to the Sage to seek the pardon
of the king. Durvasa went to Ambarisha. who prayed to lord Vishnu to
recall the Sudarshan and save Durvasa.
The lesson of this episode is that God regards himself as a servant
of his true devotee. It is not enough if one does good work, but should
do so with humility and devotion. Ambarisha was the embodiment of
humility.
At the behest of Duryodhana, once while passing through the
forest the sage Durvasa. accompanied by his many disciples, and
reached the hut of Pandavas. Sage Durvasa was known giving "Shaap'
(curse) to the people who violated the Rlshi's wishes.
Draupadi welcomed the sage and after proper salutations
enquired about the needs. Durvasa told her that they were all hungry
and would be happy to receive proper meals. Draupadi was at her wits
end as there was nothing in her kitchen to offer to these hundred pious
guests! Unfortunately the vessel that could have solved her problem
was already used for the day and washed clean. Now it would yield
the food the next day only. It was. at the same time essential for her to
make some arrangements as per the command of Durvasa lest his
curse might prove disastrous for her and Pandavas.
To buy time, she requested the sage and his disciples to take bath
in the nearby river, and In the meantime she could prepare meals for
them. The sage agreed and left for the river with his associates.
Krishna's timely help on the call of Draupati lead Durvasa and his
disciples to make a hasty retreat when they found their hunger
satiated when they were taking bath In the river and never turned up
at the hut of Draupati for meal.
We very well know the story of Dushyanta and Shakuntala the
abandoned daughter of Rlshl Vlshwamltra and Menaka, who grew up
In the Ashram of Rishi Kanva. Since, she was left near the group of
birds called Shakunt, she was named Shakuntala. While she was
deeply lost in the memories of King Dushyanta, her misfortune visited
her in the form of Durvasa. Shakuntala was oblivious of hls presence.

82
T1lfl Drekkana Drekkana and Nature

As a consequence, she was cursed that the one. In whose thought she
was so engrossed as to Ignore the great sage Durvasa. would fall to
recognize her at the most crucial and appropriate moment. And when
Rlshl Kanva. along with Shakuntala visited the court of Dushyanta. he
refused to recognize her. And on account of the curse. she had lost the
ring that Dushyanta had given her as the only e:vtdenc:.e of their cosmic
marriage. Let us not forget that despite being so cursed apparently, it
was he who had blessed her about the happy ending love story. As a
result, one fisherman brought the very best of his catch. a big fish, to
offer the same to the king. The fish had swallowed the famous ring.
And like a flash, the king remembered every thing, rushed back to
Shakuntala and gave her the rightful place of the queen. They were the
parents of Bharat.

We know that the lords of three Drekkana of a sign ate the lord of
same sign, lord of 5"' sign from that sign and lord of 9* sign from that
sign. It is said that the planet placed In own sign in Drekkana is ever
strong and it Is comfortable when II Is placed In Its friends sign in
Drekkana. This triennial movement of the planets In Drekkana
indicates that Drekkana Is simply a transformation of the natal chart
energies which signifies Sewa·l (self or soul). Buddhl-5 (or wisdom)
and Dharma ·9 (character)
When Drekkana chart can be Independently analysed like a Natal
chart, one can therefore see some standard yogas In Drekkana as
under. One is likely to have success in life when following features
manifest inDrekkana.
I. The Lagna rashi corresponds to Drekkana rashl and two or more
planets are Vargottam In Drekkana chan.
2. One or more planets are exalted. In Mooltrlkona or in own sign,
in Kendras.
The Drekkana Drekkana and Yoga

3. Several planets are exalted and well placed, housewlse. Th. y

make the native a King.
4. A debilitated Drekkana lord normally leads to lack of success and
woridry comrons.
5. The Drekkana lord, associated with or aspected by any neecha
planet or a natural malefic. or hemmed between malefics.
indicates lack of siblings.
6. A benefic Durdhura of Moon will give good results while a
malc::nc Durdhurawlll give poor results.
In view of the above yogas of Drekkana following things can also
be observed.
1. See rise In life. because Drekkana Is the expansion of the 3~<~
house and 3111 1s kMmapha/ through seH efforts.
2. See rise of siblings through yogas of Drekk.tn.l.
3. See rise of students/ players I Pupil from the Drekkana chart of
Teacher /Coodtes/ Gurus (efforts of teachers and rise of student)
RaJ Yogas ate formed by PAC Connection of Kendra and Trikona
lords the same applies to Drekkana also. Some Standard Raj yogas are
under:
I. A planet that aspects or occupy L.agna of Natal chart. Navamsha
L.agna and Drekkana L.agna generates to a powerful R.'i yoga.
2. A planet placed in own sign/In its exaltation sign in first or 7*
house of Natai/Navamsha and Drekkana L.agnas simultaneously
leads to powerful Raj yoga.
3. Drekkana chart become strong like a Vargottam Navamsha.
when natal L.agna and Drekkana L.agna Is same and many planets
falls In same sign in Drekkana as they ate In natal chart ,this
promotes Ral yoga.
4. A strong Moon placed in Cancer Drekkana associated with a
strong benefic generates Raj yoga.
5. The PAC connection of 3"' lord of Natal. 3• lord of Navamsha and
3• lord of Drekkana give rise to powerful Rajyogas which will
manifest to rise of a person through self efforts and out standing
siblings.

Strength of Rajyoga - When A Rajyoga Produces its Best

Results
The Ralyoga Is likely to give the Uttam results when L.agna lord
and at least 3 more planet are In moveable Signs In first Drekkana,
Madhyam results when placed in 2"" Drekkana and Adham results
when placed In 3d Drekkana. for details see table-Strength of Raj

(As per BPHS)

There Is another rule given In UttMkaldiTiitrd which states that a

planet will give its full results when placed in first Drekkana of movable
sign, the 2"" of a fixed sign and 3"' of a dual sign. In the same manner
planet will give medium results In 2nd, 3"' and I" Drekkanas of
movable, fixed and dual sign respectively. They give poor results
when placed In the 3"'. I" and 2"" Drekkana receptively of the
movable. fixed and dual slgn.

Birth Chart, Drekkana

and Navamsha

Birth chart is of utmost importance in the astrology, it's the basic

chart and all the other divisional charts derive their existence from this
chart. Maharishi Parashar has advocated the use of divisional charts in
cohesion with the birth chart for accurate analysis and assessment of
various promises and to render the prediction more minute and
correct. He has stated in his Varga Viveka Adhyaya' that
Vargavimposhaka Bala (20 Point Strength) of various planets In various
divisional charts should be considered to know about their good or
bad results. He has prescribed use of various Varga Kundlls (combination
of divisional chart with birth charts) for the purpose and has assigned
specific vlmposhaka bala to various divisional charts. In the Shadvarga
Kundlls he has included Lagna, Hora. Drekkana, Navamsha,
Dwadashamhsa, and Trimshamsha. Out of a total vimposhaka bala of
20 he has assigned 6,4 and 5 points to Lagna, Drekkana and
Navamsha charts respectively, which forms 75% of total vimposhaka
strength of 20. Clearly, Maharishi Parashara has given utmost
importance to these three charts. In shadavarga analysis of an
individual, a combined study of these three charts should reveal 75%
of an individual.
In this chapter we are not attempting to give detail of how to
read a horoscope, which is a separate issue altogether. What we are
attempting to do here is that whether these three charts can be linked
together in some manner to know more accurately about a person.
Linkage in these chart is inherent as two divisional charts derive their
existence from birth chart. The birth chart is person, navamsha. the
second most important chart. is innerself of Individual &.. Indicates
achievable heights of the person and drekkana indicates quantity and
quality of efforts of an Individual. Various classics have also linked
these three charts but somehow or other they have concentrated more

114
The Drekkana Both Chart.Drekkana andNm•amsha

on physical appearance and some traits of the person and have

prescribed results accordingly. A compact view of various results
given by various dasslcs.linking signification's of signs on Birth Chart.
its three Drekkanas and nine Navamsha ate tabulated In earlier
chapter. Obviously these results as indicated do not match word to
word In a horoscope. Reason being the classics have given these
results In a generalised manner i.e. without considering a specific
horoscope and other planetary influences. Still that doesn't mean that
the results as Indicated by the various classics are not worth
consideration. They do provide us with some hints that can be used In
study of a horoscope subject to modifications according to various
other Influences In a horoscope.
Maharishi Parashar while depicting how to prepare Drekkana and
Navamsha Charts has also given the lords ol these Drekkanas and
Navamsha. Hr Drekkana these three lords are Narada. Agastya and
Durvasa respectively and for navamsha the lords are Deva. Nara and
Rakshasha respectively in a sequential manner. All these three lords
have their own significations. Narada RN1i had qualities such as wise.
noble. pre.lCher, all round genius. Augustya Rishi had qualities such as
determln.\tlon. strong will power, ability to do difficult deeds etc and
slmlllarly Durvasa rishi is associated with qualities like Hot &. Short
Tempered, egositlc etc. In the same way Deva. Nara A. Rakshasa
Navamshas basically represent Sata. Rajo 8.. Tan1o Guna respectively.
These significations can be made use of to know about the traits or
nature of a person.
In every horoscope lagna is of utmost lnlportance and indicates
about the physical appearance, personal traits and nature of an
individual. We have made an attempt by applying the same to Birth
Lagna. Drekanna Lagan A. Navamsha Lagna in a horoscope. to know
about the personal traits or nature of persons and have found this
principle applicable to a large extent.
Take the horoscopes of Late Sh. Jawahar LaJ Nehru and Late Mrs.
Indira Gandhi, both have Cancer Lagna A. Pisces Drekkana but different
navamshas. The lords of these as per ~ ate as follows:
No Person Ligna Drddala Codal Codal
Name of Name of
Drekkana Navamsha
1. J.L.Nehru Cancer Pisces Durvasll Deva (Capri)
Indira Gandhi Cancer Pisces Durvasa Rakshasa
(Places)
Fhm the above It can be seen that both have the same Lagna 8..
115
Birth Chan Drekkana and Navamsha The Drekkana

Drekkana, and to a major extent their nature should have been the
same, yet they both differ so much in personality and nature with each
other. The difference is caused by the navamsha in which lagna &.
drekkana are falling. Lord of Navamsha In case of Late Sh. Jawahar lal
Nehru is Deva representing the Sata Guna and negative qulaltles of
Drurwasa (Lord of Drekkana) were to a major extent set off by the
Deva Navamsha. Whereas in case of Mrs. Indira Gandhi the lord of
Navamsha is Rakshasa, representing Tamo Guna. Here the Rakshasa
Navamsha increased negative qualities of Durvasa to a large extent.
Both these were the great leaders of our country and served the
country well, yet we know that Late Jawahar Lal Nehru was a much
more mild, gentle & parliamentary leader than Mrs. Gandhi.

A combined study of the Natal Chart along with the Navamsha

fresh insights. Here only the ASC has been analysed it would be

Astrology of Profession
through Drekkana
Swaroop

From Drekkan we see nature of a person, his behaviour. likes

and dislikes. Drekkan covers " Karma" and leevlka . thoughts of a
person are also influenced by it. All drekkans have their own
features and qu,,lltles, which are used for knowing specific and
special types of behaviour. By finding and drekkana In which a
person is born. we know the character, nature and behaviour and
also his occup.,tlon, difficulties he may have to face in lt. The
position of Moon's drekkana in a horoscope has special importance.
Traits of a person other than profession can be seen by drekkana.
Drekkan refers to travels also.
The position of different planets In different drekkans would make
the picture clearer. In drekkana, signs trine to each other convey
apparent as well as hidden personality and nature of a person.
Different planets behave differently in different signs on the basis of
their nature I.e. firy. earthy, airy or watery. Placements In different
houses have their role to play.
Kaml.l.ph.'\1 can be seen on the basis of dasha flow In life. whether
tenth lord is connected to 2"" and 6"' house or not. where 10" lord has
gone in Drekkana where 5th and 9"' lord are placed tn Drekkana i.e.

Navamsh lord gives adverse results. Exalted planets In D/3 give the
results of lordship of 0/1. Raj yoga Is formed when Drekkan ASC and
Navamsh ASC are simultaneously in own In their respective charts sign
or exalted planets are In first or seventh house. or these have a PAC
relationship.

Jupiter in 7" house or II • house refines one's dl:$lrcs. therefore. efforts
become productive. Desires manifest differently in different persons. If
3•, 7• and I I"' house of Natal and Drekkana ate associated, the
person Is lnu::rested In drama. music. dance etc., but may not be
looked as good if It is not associated with Lagna. 5* and 9* house will
be paid less if not associated with 2""'. 6* or IO.,Iord.
Rlshl s have classified Drekkana in various heads. Drekkana ate
given peculiar names, form and description from which they are
recognized and made use of In predictive astrology very effectively.
This is known as "Drekkana Swaroop". The Swaroop of drekkana Is a
thoughtful link between present lives with past 'nrc which leads to
future life. They are g rouped In the category of human-male- female-
Sarp, Chatushpad. Kh,,g, Pash and Ayudh. They are also known as
Kroor. Watery, Saumya and Mixed.
Here we have taken only, Sarp (5) Chatushpad (I I I Khag (4) and

Teachers, Lecturers, Readers and Professors

While examining the horoscope of teachers it is observed that lag
lord, 10"' Land AMK in most of the cases are found either In Ayudh or
Chatushpad drekkana, few In Sarp drekkana and very few in Khag
drekkana. This is because they remain at one place generally, and do
the job of soft nature. Sarp drekkana is found in those who are doing
research, guied research or have Investigative aptitude.
Dasha running at that time was of Ayudh or Chatushpad
drekkana in majority of cases. Ayudh drekkan's prominence indicates
about teaching the right- order. They are relatively of polite nature. In
two cases of Ayudh drekkana, it Is noticed that they had become
principals of colleges where they have to be more assertive and
aggressive for getting administrative work done.

Management professionals
While analyzing horoscopes of management professional's
dominance of Ayudh drekkana Is found prominently, because they
have to work hard and aggressively to remain In the run of their job.
Managers looking after finance operations are prominent in this. Next
are seen in Khag drekkana- found in those cases who are In marketing
and sales. Their job, is of roaming nature- behaviors, is sudden.
Sometimes they would like to take the share of other competitors in
the market or deprive others of their shares- vultures. They are far-
sighted. Few 10"' L and AMK are found In Chatushpad drekkana-
baslc.ally who are working in Human Resources department or in call-
centers. they have to do hard work at workplace- get angry easily and
not aspirant for frequent changes in job. Financial analyst, business
development and internal audit Is also included in it. Sarp drekkana is
in the cases where managers do market research.
At the time they prepared and joined for management- majority
were running dasha of the planet in Ayudh drekkana, some in Khag
drekkana and very few have dasha lord in Chatushpad drekkana,
exception in sarp drekkana- working in consultancy services.

Computer Professional
In case of computer professional- chatushpad drekkana is found
in maximum horoscopes as prominent drekkana. In most of the
professions use of computer has become essential today. Therefore.
except hardware and software. engineers or business development
professional, majority Is covered In this drekkana. Ayudh drekkana is
found in those few who are in marketing of programmers, they are
127
Astrology of Profession through Drekkana Swaroop The Drekkana

bold, aggressive and short- tempered, and sales promotion requires

aggressive marketing.
Out of 10 horoscopes examined- except one, nine were running
dash a of Sat, Rah or Ket during IS years to 25 tyears of age when they
started computer as profession. Out of 10-8 dash a lords are either in
Chatushpad or Ayudh drekkana. Two who joined computer during
dasha lord in khag drekkana- are unable to settle themselves in the
profession- even after 8 - 1 0 years.

Defence Services
In Cases of defence services chatushpad drekkana Is found in
most of the cases- means they are ready to work hard and follow the
orders. But at the time of selecting the jobs in these services . dasha
running was either chatushpad or Ayudh drekkana-ready far aggressive
(offensive) jobs, AMK is also in either Ayudh or chatushpad drekkana
Indicating for the preparedness for this lob.
In majority of these cases 10:11 Lor AMK is associated with Sun or
Mars. In cases of Pilots they are either in Airy or Ftry Signs. Navel
Officers 1Qt11 L Is In Watery signs indicating the nature of their lob. In
Some cases-specially in Army, they left Army after 5 years to 20 years
of service with change of dasha.

Drekkana and
Relationship with Siblings
The secrets of predictive astrology are hidden in the Divisional
Charts known as Vargas. Divisional Chans are basically used to
establish the strengths and the weakness of the Planets. There are
different Vargas for different aspects of the native's life eg. Navamsha
is seen for spouse. Dasharnsha for profession etc
Drekkana Chart is seen for the matters relating to third house.
Basically it is the extension of third house and this chart can be seen In
more minute details for everything concerning third house. Various
classics have given the significations/matters which can be seen from
the third house like siblings. happiness from siblings, parakrama i.e.
quantity &. quality of efforts of an Individual. cour;lge, v;\lour. ability,
hobbles. servants, good qualities, nature of the death of the native
depending upon the nature of 22TM Drekkana and so on. However. two
main significations of this bhava are siblings and prakrama. Maharishi
Parashar has called this Bhava as SAHA), means siblings. Obviously,
out of so many significations of that house Pamshara has named this
house after siblings. Everything concerning siblings like no. of siblings,
sex of siblings, relationship with the siblings should be seen from this
house and the extension of this house the Drekkana Chart.
Many researches on promises of siblings, their sex. numbers.
hierarchical order etc. have been done by students of the Institute of
Astrology. Bharatiya Vldya Bhawan. under the guidance of our
revered Guru Sh. K.N.Rao. Our revered Guru Sh. K.N.Rao also has
given very notable researches In these areas. These researches ate
published In the lournal of Astrology (Mesha S.vnkrantl Issue April-
June 2004). Certain parameters laid down In these researches are
given below In brief:

141
Drekkana •IX1 R~~~~Shitl "'m Si~s

Past Researches
The published researches have covered promises of co-born
,their sex and number .Some parameters are laid down. A brief
parametric analysis as under:-
a. Rahu In the third or eleventh house generally does not give one a
middle position .Such persons are generally the eldest or the
youngest among siblings or in their own sex among siblings .
b. The placement of eleventh lord in the third house or the third lord
In the eleventh house also does not give middle position
generally.
c. A double affliction to the eleventh house or the third house or
their lords Is a strong negative factor for promise of siblings.
d. An afflicted benefic reverses its results and promises. For instance
a doubly afflicted Jupiter has been seen to give female children.

Jam in I
In Jamini. co-born are represented by Bhartrlkarak IBKI. Note the
BK, Its position, the aspects of other karkas In a house.

Sex of the Child

In IYotlsh. male planets ate Mars. luplter and Sun and Rahu. But if
they are afflicted in female Rashi (sign) or retrograde the results may
be reverse. Female planets are Venus. Saturn, Moon and Ketu.
Mercury should be given special observations since Mercury is
regarded as an eunu4 t1

Ramanujancharya's Hint
If Mars or tuplter are aspecting the third lord or third house there
Is a chance of the birth of a SIBLING

Promise of a Sibling
For seeing the possibility of younger co-born. first we have to ftnd
promise for It In elder co-boms horoscope, then a favourable Dasha is
required for its fructification and fin<11ly, transit of Saturn. Iup iter. Mars
and Moon has to be seen. Every specific event is due to Inter-
relationship and transit of planets. ~ches in this aspect is already
done and published In the Journal of Astrology Issue lanuary-March
200 I. Parameters are as follows -
0 Analyse third lord and third house.
0 Fifth lord and fifth house. as fifth house is third from third.
;, If Mars and the third lord aspects the third house, there Is a

Transit
1. Saturn should have aspected 3"'or 5* hous~/lord with In a year of
birth of a younger co-born.
2. luplter should have aspected same points like Saturn with In a
year of birth of a co-born.
3. Mars should have aspected the same points.
4. Phaldeeplk.1 says- If the 3"'house be equipped with strength, be
conjoined with a benefic and the karaka of the 3~<~ house also
strong and posited In a benefic house. the prosperity of brother is
assured. If however. the lords of the 3"' and Its karaka be weak
and be posited In a dush-sthana. the results will be destruction of
brothers.
Few examples of Past Researches has been given below. Which
was tested on many horoscopes and can be replicated with good
amount of accuracy on any given horoscopes. (For more examples
please refer to Mesha Sankranti Issue of lanuary-March 200 I and

From the above it can be seen that enough result-oriented
researches have been done so far on siblings, their promises, number
& sex of siblings etc .. these are the proven parameters. which are
147
Drekkana and Relationship with Siblings The Drekkana

totally scientific in nature.

RELATIONSHIP WITH SIBLINGS

Till now, we have seen the sex, numbers and their status among
co-barns. Now, we will try to achieve another milestone by proceeding
further to see, how these co-borns will behave with each other, the
kind of relationship which they will have with each other, when they
grow up and what are the inherent qualities with which they are bam.

Background
Primary aspect to be kept In mind before proceeding further is
that the Lagna Lord of Natal Chart and Lagna Lord of Drekkana chart
will always be friendly to each other because Natal Lagna Lord is
friendly with 5111 and 9th house lords. And in Drekkana Chart, Houses
have only trlnal movement (1,5,9) based on Ascendant Degree. If a
planet is In first Drekkana it remains in the same house In Drekkana
Chart self. If it is In second Drekkana, it moves to the house Slh from it
and if it is in third Drekkana, it moves to a house 9* from lt. So, the
Drekkana Lagna lord will either be 1st, 5th, or the 9* House lord of the
Natal Chart.
We have to concentrate on 31<1 House to see the Quality of
Relationship among the siblings. One way to see the type of
relationship between co-born is to see the movement of the 3rd houses
of Natal Chan in the Drekkana Chart based on Ascendant Degree.
After analyzing the 3"' House, we analyse the planets PAC with 3rc1
House/ Lords.
If the ASC is in I st Drekkana then the Natal 3rc1 House and
Drekkana 3rc1 House remains the same. which Is good for relationship
at the first glance. If the ASC Is In 2nd Drekkana, then the Natal 7 111
House becomes the Drekkana 3" House, which links up the 7"' House
significations to 3rd House like spouse, partnership, public image etc ..
then the relationship is superfidal, they tend to be friendly in public,
but will have wide gap internally. If the ASC Is in 3"'Drekkana, then the
Natal II"' House becomes the 3'"House of Drekkana, which links up
the significations of 11 "'House to 3"' House like gains, desires, Income.
elders etc. then the relation between the co-born is purely materialistic
in nature.

PARAMETERS
I. PAC of Lagna Lord of the Co-borns.
Lagna Lord defines the behavioral pattern of the person. We see

148
The Dnskkana Drekkana and Relationship >111:h Siblings

the compatibility of persons even in the marriage matching. In

the same way, the relationship between the lagna lords of the co-
boms would define and decide their mutual relationship.
2. Examine the PAC relationship between 3"" and II., House and
Lords.
The Inter-relationship between the concerned houses for co-born
In their respective horoscopes would further explain the quality
of relationship between them. It is to be borne In mind that the
elder sibling Is related to or Is seen from II "' house and the
younger sibling Is related to or Is seen from 3"'house. Therefore.
I tis the II"'Housc and Lord of the younger slbllng, which needs
to be measured! analysed with the 3"' house and lord of the elder
sibling or vice versa.
3. The above 2 parameters have to be examined In the Drekkana
Chart also.
While analyzing the Drekkana Chart. this must be borne In mind
that the Lagna Lord of Natal Chart will be friendly to Lagna Lord
of Drekkana Ch.vt. as it has to be 5"' or 9'1' Lord of Natal Chart as
explained above. But the PAC of planets may ch.mge. which will
show Its results with the advancement of Chronological age or
assertion of increasingly greater independence and Dasha pattern.
4. Analyse Karaka Mars and Juplrer
For Younger Sibling Mars and Jupiter for Elder Sibling. See their
Inter-relationship In the respective Natal and Drekkana Chart.
Note; The Natal PAC relationship defines the Inherent nature,
inherited by the co-born. The Drekkana relationship shows the
direction and the quality of its development due to the dynamic
configurations actuated by chronological age, Dasha and Transit.
Below ate some of the examples on which these parameters has
been tested and round correct. These parameters can be tested on any
horoscope for confirming the same.

Case I
ELDER& YOUNGER
Parameters Applied
I. PAC ol Lagna Lord of the two Co-born.
Lagna Lord of younger co-born Is Moon and elder co-born is
Venus They are not friendly to each other. But In both the cases
the Lagn,, Lord Is posited in Libra Rashi. For the younger one
Libra R.lShl Is 4"' House and for the elder one Libra Is Lagna. This
shows the similar approach, which Is gentle and polished. Lagna

their Lords.

Drekkana and Relationship ~1/h Siblings The Drekkana

In Drekkana Chart of elder sibling, 9"' house rashi of Natal chart

became the Lagna. which brings up the 1 lth house signification
(Leo) to 3rdhouse of Drekkana. And in younger siblings Drekkana
chart, 5th house of Natal Chart became the Lagna, which brings
the 7 111 house signification of natal chart to the 3'" house of
Drekkana chart.
In Younger siblings Drekkana chart. Lagna Lord is Mars and the
eleder ones Lagna Lord is Mercury. They are not friendly to each
other, however lup In younger sibling's chart is exalted in 9"'
house thus the relation lmporves. In younger one's case Lagna
lord is exhalted in 3rd House and aspecting I I"' lord Mercury In
the 6"' house which is placed with 3rd lord Saturn in Lagna Lord's
Rashi Aries.

Close and cordial relation on card.
4. Analyse Karaka Mare and Jupiter.
Karaka Mars for Younger sibling to be seen in elder sibling's Natal
Chart. In Natal Chart of Elder Sibling Mars is in its own house
Scorpio.
Jupiter is the Karaka for Elder Sibling, to be seen on younger
sibling's Natal Chart. Here also Jupiter is in Pisces, its own house.
In Drekkana Chart of younger sibling, Jupiter is exalted in 9"'
House and in Elder sibling's Drekkana Chart Mars is in Jupiter's Rashi
Pisces and further aspected by Jupiter. In both the Drekkana Chart,
both the Karakas are mutually aspecting each other in 1n axis.
All the parameters are fully applicable to both the horoscopes.
When we analyse both the charts the PAC of planets and houses of
both the siblings shows a very close and cordial relationship.

the natural significator of Aayu Ls connected with Mars In Natal and

of Navamsha In the Sign of Mars.
Thus we can see mat house and lord of Aayu Bhava are afflicted
(I.e. 8* lord and 8* house.)
Case History: This Is the horoscope of a female who died on 19-
2-2006. Stomach Cancer was diagnosed In the month of April 2005.
Earlier she had continuous fever, which was Incurable. At the time of
diagnosis Dasha was Rahu!RahuJMercury.
Rahu Is responsible for any type of growth and Mercury Is 6"' lord
In 8"' house with 12m lord Sun and In Rahu-Ketu ,'\XIS. In Navamsha
Mercury Is L.agna lord again in the B"' house. At the time of Death
Pratyanter Dasha was of Moon which Is znc~ lord (M.vaka Bhava)
situated In the Aayu Bhava{3"' house).
5* lord Sun Is placed In 8* house Y.1th 6* lord Mercury and in
Rahu-Ketu axis so from Janma L.agna seat of disease may be stomach
or near by region.

Use of Drekkana to locate the seat of Disease

1• Drekkana Is rising in L.agna so the planets In 2nd and 3*
Drekkana will show stomach and the region below the pelvis. Mercury
Is In 3"' Drekkana, In the Pratyanter Dasha of Mercury disease is
diagnosed In the area of naval and Rahu Is In 3"' Drekkana. Therefore
the disease appeared In the Maha Dasha and Anter Dasha of Rahu, so
Cancer Is spread In stomach and nearby area In R.r.lhu·Rahu-Mercury
Dasha and finally she died.
Sun Is Khar planet (Sun in 8* house In Natal and Drekkana both)
for this horoscope which Is 5* lord and natural significator of Stomach
which again shows that horoscope can be a victim of stomach ailment.

Conclusion
In the end we know that through Drekkana we can Identify the
possibility of an ARISHTA In the body Astrology not only helps in
Identifying Arishta but It also suggests its cure. Arishta should be
considered as the decay of negative energy and the best way out is to
bear It for some time. If the Arishta becomes intolerable Mah,,mrltunnjay

Drekkana Past and

The Future Birth
The Hindu philosophy is not concerned only With the present life
of a person. It believes In series of lives for every '.:~tma', Naturally
therefore there Is a belief In rebirth in that philosophy. Many things
have been connected with the past and present lives of a person. It is
believed that the status of our present life depends on the merits and
demerits of our past life! and that those who do good and meritorious
things in their past life get happiness In their present life and vice
versa.
As the Bhagawad Geeta is the essence of all the philosophy of
the Upanishads, we find there in good many references to rebirth and
the effect of merit and demerit of the past life on the present one. The
mention of the cycle of birth and death is clearly stated thus In the
Geeta.
One who Is born IS sure to die &. one who dies Is bound to be
reborn. (Geeta 11/27)
Adya Shankaracharya has also referred to this belief In his as
follows: (Birth comes again, death again follows and you again lie
down In the womb of your mother).
Though thls cycle of birth ana death Is referred to In the Hindu
philosophy as above, we have also to note how the Hindu philosophers
looked at death. The ancient philosophers considered the human body
to comprise of five basic elements. which pervade trie whole universe.
They ar~· earth. w.,ter. frre, wind and Ak.lash. Now the death is
described as: meaning that the body has disintegrated and that
all the elements which had Joined together to fonn the body
have merged Into the original elements and have become one
with them. Death has been described as a so very simple happening
In one Shloka of the Bhagawad-Geeta it has been described that death
is a natural consequence and that it follows a series of events, which
start fum the birth as follows :·
(Just as there ate different stages in the human life like the
180
 Drekkana Past llld The Future Birth

childhood, youth and old age. similarly the next one is death. A
philosopher does not therefore worry about ltl. (Ch IV13)
The Hindu philosophy has a distinct conception of the atma*.
who enters a body and leaves it when the body becomes useless for
housing him. After describing the immortality of the soul at length
therefore Lord Krishna describes death as follows :-
(Just as a man throws away his old and worn out garments and
wears new Olle$, similarly the soul leaves the worn out bodies and
enters Into new ones). (Ch 11/22]
When death Is considered so simple as the changing of old
clothes and wearing new ones. then how will there be any sorrow for
inevitable death or how will there be any fear for death?
Ufe after death also has been described In the ninth canto of the
Bhagawadgeeta. The traditional belief In this respect Is of the heaven
and hell. The persons who are wicked and do bad. deeds during their
present life are supposed to go to hell for undergoing punishment for
their had de«<s. while the meritorious persons go to heaven for the
good deeds done by them In this fife. The future of the meritorious
persons has been described as follows :-
(Those, who observe the functions described in the three vedas
viz. Rlgvcda, Yalurveda and Samaveda and who are free from sins.
worship me by means of sacrifice; and expect to go to heaven by
virtue of their merit. They go (after death) to the dty of gods and enjoy
many ple,\Sures, which ate commonly enjoyed only by the Gods).
These pleasures are not enjoyed permanently by the meritorious
persons rcl'errcd to In the above shlok.ln the very next Shloka the Lord
said:·
(After enjoying the pleasures of heaven, these persons are reborn
on the earth when their merit gets over. The people who thus observe
the functions described in the three Vedas. go on traveling from
heaven to earth) (Ch 6/41 &. 42)
Lord Sri Krishna has thus described the concepts of the Hindu
people about merit. demerit and about the heaven and earth and the
fruits that ate obtained by the respective people after their death. It
will be seen that the Idea of rebirth has been clearly described in the
different Shlok.\S quoted above, which Is the usual trend of the Hindu
philosophy.
Having thus accepted the theory of rebirth. we become Inquisitive
to know whether we get some Indication In the Bhagawad Geeta
about the next birth. Can we say something about the next birth of a
person after l<nowlng his way of behaviour In this birth? Yes. we get

181
Drekkana Past and The Future Birth The Dnskkana

some clue In this respect In the 6* Chapter of the Bhagavad-Gita

where Abhyasayoga has been described by the Lord to his disciple
Arjuna. In the beginning of this unto, the lord has defined yoga and
after that he has described how a person should sit and meditate so as
to become a yogi. Though Lord Shree Krishna was a great scholar, his
student Arjuna also was a perfect match. He was constantly expressing
his doubts in many ways and the Lord was coolly replying to his
doubts without getting annoyed. Thus after describing yoga and the
way In which a yogi should meditate. the Lord has enumerated the
different benefits that a yog) gets by means of meditation. Arjuna
however noted in the speech of the Lord that the concentration of the
mind was very essential for meditation. He however doubted how far
concentration would be possible in view of the fickleness of the mind.
which is its chief trend. He therefore raises the following doubt (0
Lord Krishna, the mind Is ever changing, powc:rful, wayward and
difficult to mould. I. therefore, feel that controlling It must be
very difficult like having control over the wind). (Ch Vl/34)
To this doubt of hl5 disciple Lord Shree Krishna gave a reply that
it Is no doubt difficult to control the mind which 15 quite fickle: but He
added that by practice you can get control over your mind and
therefore practice Is essential.
After getting the above reply from the Lord. Arjuna raised a
further doubt In this respect as follows-
(0 Krishna, If after having full faith In Yoga a person Is not able to
achieve the Slddhl I.e. complete fruit of yoga due to lack of proper
effort on his side, then what happens to such a person? What end 15
met by such a person?) (Ch Vl/37)
As good deeds are never w.utcd. the Lord gives In the following
shloka a straight reply to the above doubt that a person doing good
deeds never comes to a bad stale.
(Oh Arjuna, such a person, who has done good deeds will never
perish neither in this world nor in the next. No one. who does good
deeds, ever comes to a bad state). (Ch Vl/40)
Lord Krishna knew the way of thinking of his disciple Arjuna. He
himself therefore thought that such a general reply will not satisfy his
disciple. He therefore dcllnltely tells In the very next ShJoka what
happens to such people In their following birth.
(Such a per.100, who is distracted from yoga. gets fora JOOg time
all the pleasures which all meritorious people get and is reborn in a
family which b pious and rich) (Ch VV41)
The above Shlok.l though meant lor clearing the doubts of
The Drekkana Drekkana Past and The Future Birth

Arjuna. does not only dear his doubts. It helps we common people
also to solve so many riddles that we commonly meet In our life.
Whenever we come across some prodigies, we often get baffled and
we do not know how to account for the high degree of Intelligence
noticed In some people and also their wonderful achievements In their
very early age. The reply of this doubt Is given above by Lord Krishna
that the achievements of these persons In their past life are carried by
them In the next life and therefore they have not to start every thing
from ABC. Their past achievements help them to come to a certain
level from which they have to go ahead and make further progress,
which other persons of the same age are not at all able to reach. In
order to verify the truth of the above statement, we may just cast a
glance at the biographies of three prominent personalities viz. Adl
Shankaracharya. Cinyaneshwar and Shrl Sal Baba. At a very early age
when others start learning. ail the above three personalities appear to
have made a very remarkable progress and achieved much knowledge
by which they stood head and shoulders above their contemporaries.
It b not necessary to refer to the lnddents in the life of these persons as
they are commonly known by the devotees In the spiritual nne: but lf
we remember them mentally we shall find a solution for their high
achievements In a very early age and also for thdr wonderful
knowledge In different branches. It b because of their penance, which
they have done In their past life.

Astrological Study of Rebirth

It Is a common saying In Sanskrit that "sradhyam Agnl Samldhate"
means that If you have faith then It could light the sacrificial fire.
Therefore the entire discussion in this chapter will be based on that
indomitable faith that we have for our astrological and mythological
faith. Faith leads you to belief in many things that cannot be proved by
physical science.
In certain personalities we see those qualities attributable to our
puranlc Gods. Whereas some people could be Identified with the
animal Instincts. Such division could be possible by everyday
observation and characterization of human beftrgs by ourselves. It
seems that such the division of various LOKAS have been done on thb
basis. The planets have been attributed with the LOKAS. may be due
to their Inherent char ACterlstlcs: -
(uplter Devloka
Moon and Venus Pltrlloka
Sun or Mars llryak Loka or Bhuloka

183
Drekkana PaSland The Future Bvm The Drekkana

Mercury Or Saturn Narak

Further explanation of the system can be done in the following
manner. Astrological explanation have been sought for the
determination ot human mental state ot affairs and application in
Dreshkans. L.1ghujatal< states that if Sun Is in the Dreskan of Mercury
and Moon Is In the Dreshkan of Jupiter then it should be determined
that the individual will try to bring an equilibrium between the desire
and carnal satisfaction and godly benevolences. Because Moon the
determinant of mind Is placed with the knowledge giver Jupiter. Who
so ever Is stronger ot these two ( Sun or Moon) and Its Dreshkan lord
will indicate the individuals previous birth accomplishments or LOKAS
or region that he belonged.
The division or the distinction belongs to the mental plane. It has
been attributed with four clear distinctions. In the innermost
subconscious plane lies the Tranquility which Is attributed with the
DE.VLOK or total Godliness and the highest plane of the mind. Nothing
could disturb this plane. There are people around us with such
qualities even today. Immediately following the plane lies the outer
subconscious which Is delineated by our ancestral traditions which
propels us to the correct path of progress and existence. This LOKA or
the plane Is stated to be Pltrl-loka. The family traditions gives the
Inhibition to stay away from bad deeds. Following Pltriloka we come
towards the material world of desire and its satisfaction. This Is with
everybody yet with certain qualitative differences. Individuals belonging
to this LOKA are conscious about their self and self defined world.
Mind Is the tool to create heaven or hall as the saying goes. As such
this division of mental plane (the conscious plane) Is called Narak or
Naralok. And finally the lowest division is l'auslok, where an Individual
lives and behaves like an animal mostly to survive and hurt others.
They neither care nor think about the consequences of their activity.
Their animal Instinct even turns them into a careless killer.
Astrological divisions of four LOKAS or regions ate therefore
nothing but the division created from different layers of mental
activity. And these should be correlated as such. Mind is divided into
two sections (a) Sub conscious and ( bl Conscious. The subconscious
mind again is subdivided Into two layers. Tranquility total or Devloka
and Pltriloka. The conscious mind similarly has two clear distinctions.
(a) Mind that acts as the reality determines. which Is self driven. (b)
Lastly a mind, which has nothing but animal Instinct, Believes only
satisfaction of carnal desires. Our great seers must have created such
distinctions.

184
The Drekkana Drekkana Past and The Future Birth

The factors discussed above will help us to determine our

continuous life cycle and give an astrological expression to the same.
Look for the Sun and Moon. whichever is the stronger (use shadbal)
note the Drekkana It has gone to. The Drekkana lord will Indicate the
plane from where the Individual has taken his birth.
Let us now look into the Brihat Parashar Hora to guide us to
resolve lhls question. Brihat Parashar states that. If the stronger planet
between the Sun and Moon Is in the Drekkana of Jupiter, the jatak has
come from Devlok. In the Drekkana of Venus or Moon he has come
from l'ltrllok and If In the Drekkana of Sun and Mars he has come from
Bhulok whereas Mer and Saturn denotes Naralok.
Brihat P.ush." Hora further talks about the lok to which an
Individual will go after his death. To determine such an Important
aspect one needs to study the 6/7/8"' house from Ascendant. Jupiter
in these houses indicate Devlok. MoonNenus Indicate Pltrllok and
Sun/M.1rs Indicate Bhulok. Mercury/Saturn points towards Naralok)
Adholokl If there are more than one planet In these houses then take
the stronger of them to find out where the jatak b destined to go after
his death. If there are no planets In these houses I.e. 6/7/8 then
proceed as foiiO\YS:• Examine 6" and a-' house. Go to the Drekkana
chart and find out where are the 6a:L and 8"L poslled Stronger of
these two lords will Indicate the lok to which the jatak Is destined to
go after his death.
The avast ha (Ucchadl) Indicates of the status of the latak. A
planet In 115 exaltation Indicates the highest status and It becomes
lowest If the planet Is In Its debilitation.

Example -1
In the Drekkana chart Moon b placed with Sat and Musln the
11 .. H. But Sun the 6L Is posited in Lagan with Venus another benefic in
the house of a friend and benlfic Jupiter. As such Sun is the stronger of
the two. Thb Sun Is In the Drekkana of Jupiter which b Indicative that
the lndlvldu.ll has come from DEVLOKA. The vargottam Lagna and
the vargottam Sun Is a dear indication of the plane and him holding a
good and respectable position in his previous birth In the Devloka.

Where will the individual go after death?

Drekkana c.h"'l can be similarly utilized to determine the future
lokas where the Individual will go after death.
If there Is no planet In the 6"'H or 8"'H of Drekkana. Then the
powerful of the Drekkana lord of6"'Hand 8"H will Indicate the future

LOKA of the individual or take the planets posited In 6rh/7m/SrhH and

find out the strongest planet of them. The strongest planet will
indicate the LOKA that an individual will go after death. Refer the
example -I again.
Look at the Drekkana chart. Mercury is the only planet In the SrhH,
6rhH and 7rhH being empty. Mercury here indicates a lower world of
existence from the plane that he took birth.
It Is most likely that the individual will take a birth to lead a life
driven by animal instincts.

Phaldeepika
To continue with our discussions we can take assistance of
Phaldeepika. The Chapter 14 (Siokas Zl to Z9 J has enough discussions
to lead us towards some direction In relation to the past, future birth
which can be assessed from the birth chart. It does not mention the
applicability of Dreshkan though.

In this example the 12"'L is In the Varga of a benefic planet.

Therefore the indications of going to a higher plane of existence.
Sloka 23 -The refuge after death Is indicated by (I) the planet or
planets posited in the 12111 house, (2) the planet occupying the

birth on the immediately after death. If mercury be the planet in
question, the next world for the native will be Vaikuntha, Jupiter takes
the soul to the Brahmaloka, Saturn to the adobe of Yama, Rahu to
other islands and Ketu to hell.
In this example it amy be seen that the 12"'L Mercury is depilated
in the birth chart whereas in D/9 the 12"'H is occupied with Saturn.

above planets be In their own sign friend's sign or neutral s sign such

In lhls case the 91 I.e. Jupiter is in debilitation that Is Indicative of
the past life In an alien land other than India. Whereas the S.,LMars in

Sloka 26 - The parts of India covered by various planets are as
under -
The Sun - mountains and forests.
The Moon - tracts watered by holy rivers (like ganga. yamuna.

Mars - keekat desha now known as Bihar.
Mercury - all sacred places
Jupiter - Aryavarta bordered in the north by the Hlmi\layas, in the

If the lord of the 5"' be in such a situation. the native wiU be bom
as a bird In his next birth. All these may also be declared with
reference to the appearance of the decantes occupied by the lord of
the 9 • and the 5"'.
Sloka 29- If the lord of the 9* and the 5<!1 be In the same sign.
the past birth was in his own country and the future birth will also take
place there. If these two planets be of equal strength, the past and the
future would be In the same caste. The color and quality will also be
similar to these belonging to the lords of the 9"' and the 5"' houses.
Predictions regarding all the rest should be similarly made by a
reference to what has been stated in the Samgnadhayaya.

The Yatra was soul satisfying. The "Shiva Pujan" at Somnath temple
was heavenly.
Notice that 91 Mars Is in the 12"'H - Dwarka from Delhi Is so
distant that It can qualify as a foreign country. Mars Is 41 also. So a

Using Drekkana ftr Yatra is not done in most of the cases. This is
an excellent tool to maxiniize the results of a once In lifetime Yatra
particularly on pilgrimage. The readers should use the Drekkana and

Varanasi Drekkana and Kannaphala The Dnskkana

Drekkana chart and learn the details of this new and fascinating
Drekkana.
From Drekkana we see nature of a person. his behaviour, likes
and dislikes. Drekkan covers "Karma" and "Jeevika" (Karmphal),
thoughts of a person are also influenced by It, Drekkan in which a
person is born gives clue about the character, nature and behaviour
and also his occupation. The position of Moon In the Drekkana
horoscope has special importance it indicates the interest of a person
and nature of specific work/duties can be seen from the planets
influencing the 10111 house/l0111 1ord from the Moon in Drekkana.
The position of different planets in different Drekkanas would
make the picture clearer. In Drekkana, signs trine to each other convey
apparent as well as hidden personality and nature of a person.
Different planets behave differently in different signs on the basis of
their nature I.e. fiery, earthy, airy or watery. Placements In different
houses have their role to play.
The nature of work is indicated by Influence on I 0 111 and 6*
houses from lagna and Moon. Job changes in middle part of life i.e. 35
to 40 years may be seen from Moon. 10* from 10111 house l.e.7 111
house. 6"' from 6th house I.e. 1 I"' house are Bhavatbhavam houses,
therefore, 7* house and II* house be analysed also. 7th House is
promotion or position while I t 111 house is gains and recognition of
work performed In 10"' house. 6* house is 3"' house from 4* house I.e.
if one gets happiness by putting efforts he will do so willingly and with
dedication.
To illustrate 5"' lord In PAC link with 6th lord causes "Shankh
Yoga" the person excels in education. 3'~ house 5111 house connection
with 10111 house gives writing. Venus in Gemini may give government
service. Moon/Mars associated with Jupiter may make one a doctor
otherwise a butcher. Mercury may give job of a diplomat If there is
connection of 9* and 10" house. 10* and 12111 house or 4* and 10111
house. When association of 9th house or Jupiter Is there the karma will
be pure.
If 10* house 10111 lord is associated with Ayudh drekkan· the
person may get a rush of blood, and may be aggressive in nature.
Khag drekkana makes a person wanderer. Sarp drekkan makes a good
researcher or gives intelligence services but affilcatlon In It gives
confinement-jail or hospitalization. Chatushpad drekkan makes a
person hard working.
Drekkana represents the Karmaphal. due to the nature of Karmas
of native in previous births. This can be seen on the basis of dash a flow

Besides the above listed Drekkanas. some other categories are as

under:-
Agnl Drekkanas of malefic Planets
Jala Drekkanas of Benefic Planets
Mishra - Drekkanas of both benefic and malefic or those
aspected by both benefics and maleflcs
The above categorization of Drekkana has much significance for
Karmaph,"fprofesslon of the individual as well as his nature as is
detailed In the above table.
