Predicting with Transits By Ernst Wilhelm

1 Predicting with Transits By Ernst Wilhelm Thanks to computers, which an easily calculate transits, transits are an effective and simple method for making predictions. This was not so in ancient times when calculating transits was cumbersome work. In order to make accurate and specific predictions, however, both standard planetary aspects and Rasi aspects have to be used and these both have to be used in conjunction with the Vargas. Activation Points Predicting with transits is based upon determining when certain points become activated by transiting planets. When these points are activated, an event happens. The points that can be activated are the following: 1. A Bhava Cusp 2. The Lords of a Bhava Cusp (The plural is used for Lord as a Bhava has several lords, one in each Varga.) 3. A Graha as a Karaka 4. A Jaimini Cara Karaka These points can be activated Broadly or Exactly. When they are activated Broadly a window of opportunity exits for the point to manifest. This window may be only a few days or up to a few months long. A point is activated Exactly when it is activated by an exact conjunction or aspect. Within the window of opportunity of Broad activation, when the same point or point of similar meaning is activated Exactly, the event happens on the day of the Exact activation. Vargas and an Activation Point's Lord The term Lord applies not necessarily to the lord in the Rasi, but to the lord of the relevant Varga and always to the Shastiamsa lord. Thus each activation point has two important lords: its Shastiamsa Lord and its relevant Varga lord. Broad Activation through Jaimini's 2nd Source of Strength When one of the activation points is joined or rasi aspected by Jupiter, Mercury or its lord a window of opportunity exits for an event to happen. The more of these influences, the more significant the window of opportunity becomes, thus the biggest events happen when all of Jupiter, Mercury, the Varga lord and the Shastiamsa Lord are joining or aspecting the activation point. Vargas in Broad Activation The term Lord applies not necessarily to the lord in the Rasi, but to the lord of the relevant Varga and always to the Shastiamsa lord. Thus each activation point has two important lords: its Shastiamsa Lord and its relevant Varga lord.

2 Trigger Transits Trigger Transits are simply exact transits that activate an activation point and thus indicate the day that an event will happen. The important things to examine are the following: The Lagna The Lagna Lord The Karaka of Self - the Sun The Atmakaraka The Bhava Cusps The Bhava Lords The Grahas as Karakas Jaimini Cara Karakas (AK, AmK, BK, MK, PuK, PK, GK, DK) Jupiter's Transit Transit of the Full Moon Certain transits between these factors trigger an event. A transit is strongly in effect when the planets and points are in the same 1/9 part of a Rasi. So a planet in the 3rd Navamsa of Aries is in strong trine to a planet in the 3rd Navamsa of Leo. A transit is exact when the degrees, minutes and seconds are the same. Rasi aspects when strong and exact follow the reverse, so a planet in the 3rd Navamsa of a Rasi strongly aspects a planet in the 7th Navamsa of another Rasi and a planet in the 11th degree of one Rasi will Rasi aspect a planet in the 19th degree of another. Transits to Natal Positions The transiting Lagna Lord, Sun or Atmakaraka crosses the Bhava cusp. The transiting Lagna Lord, Sun or Atmakaraka joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Bhava Lord, Karaka or Jaimini Karaka. The transiting Karaka crosses the Bhava cusp. The transiting Karaka joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Bhava lord or Jaimini Karaka. The transiting Karaka crosses the Lagna. The transiting Karaka joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Lagna lord, AK or Sun. The transiting Jaimini Karaka crosses the Bhava cusp. The transiting Jaimini Karaka joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Bhava lord or Karaka. The transiting Jaimini Karaka crosses the Lagna. The transiting Jaimini Karaka joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Lagna lord, AK or Sun. Transiting Jupiter crosses the Bhava cusp. Transiting Jupiter joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Bhava Lord, Karaka or Jaimini Karaka. Transiting Full Moon crosses the Bhava cusp. Transiting Full Moon joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Bhava Lord, Karaka or Jaimini Karaka. Transits to Transits The transiting Lagna Lord, Sun or Atmakaraka joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the transiting Bhava Lord, Karaka or Jaimini Karaka. The transiting Karaka joins, aspects or trines the transiting Bhava lord or Jaimini Karaka. The transiting Jaimini Karaka joins, aspects or trines the transiting Bhava lord or Karaka. Transiting Jupiter joins, aspects or trines the transiting Bhava Lord, Karaka or Jaimini Karaka. Won't do by itself, but augments effects of similar transits.

3 Trigger Transits for Vargas The Rasi chart indicates Deha, the body, which is the physical manifestation of anything, thus for an event to occur, there must be a trigger transit taking place between factors in the Rasi chart as has been thus far taught. The trigger transits between Rasi chart factors bring about the physical connection between the individual and some object of a Bhava or Graha. Bhavas and Grahas, however, rule many things and to differentiate between which things ruled by a Bhava or Graha will actually manifest trigger transits between Varga factors must happen simultaneously with trigger transits between Rasi chart factors. The transits are not looked for in the Varga, rather Bhava lords are taken from the Vargas and their transits looked for in the sky just as is done for Rasi chart trigger transits. The important things to examine from the Varga are the following: The Lagna Lord of the Varga The Bhava Lords from the Varga Just as is done for the Rasi factors, certain transits between these two Varga factors, Karakas and Rasi factors will trigger an event relative to that Varga: Transits to Natal Positions The Varga Lagna lord crosses the Bhava Cusp. The Varga Lagna lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Varga Bhava lord. The Varga Lagna lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Rasi Bhava lord. The Varga Lagna lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Karaka or Jaimini Karaka. The Varga Bhava lord crosses the Lagna. The Varga Bhava lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Varga Lagna lord. The Varga Bhava lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Rasi Lagna lord. The Varga Bhava lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Sun or Atmakaraka. The Varga Bhava lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Karaka or Jaimini Karaka. The transiting Rasi Lagna Lord, Sun or Atmakaraka joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Varga Bhava Lord. Transiting Jupiter joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Varga Bhava Lord. The transiting Karaka or Jaimini Karaka joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Varga Bhava Lord. The transiting Full Moon joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Varga Bhava Lord. The Rasi Bhava lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Varga Lagna Lord. The Karaka or Jaimini Karaka joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the Varga Lagna Lord. Transits to Transits The transiting Varga Lagna lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the transiting Varga Bhava lord. The transiting Varga Lagna lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the transiting Rasi Bhava lord. The transiting Varga Lagna lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the transiting Karaka or Jaimini Karaka. The transiting Varga Bhava lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the transiting Varga Lagna lord. The transiting Varga Bhava lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the transiting Rasi Lagna lord. The transiting Varga Bhava lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the transiting Sun or Atmakaraka. The transiting Varga Bhava lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the transiting Karaka or Jaimini Karaka.

4 The transiting Rasi Lagna Lord, Sun or Atmakaraka joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the transiting Varga Bhava Lord. Transiting Jupiter joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the transiting Varga Bhava Lord. The transiting transiting Karaka or Jaimini Karaka joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the transiting Varga Bhava Lord. The transiting Rasi Bhava lord joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the transiting Varga Lagna Lord. The transiting Karaka or Jaimini Karaka joins, aspects, Rasi aspects or trines the transiting Varga Lagna Lord. Trigger Transits to Rahu and Ketu Rahu and Ketu give the results of their lord, thus transits to them can trigger events relative to the Bhava cusp that Rahu and Ketu join in the Rasi. If Rahu or Ketu is in the Lagna, then planets transiting Rahu and Ketu can trigger events just like they would if they transisted the Lagna lord. Important Transit Factors for each Varga Using transits to predict requires that the correct Bhava, Karaka and Varga be utilized so that the correct transits that give an event can be searched. Being an astrologer means always thinking of just what astrological factors rule some concrete thing. This is necessary for using any type of predictive technique as the astrologer will always encounter new things that they want to study in the horoscope. There is no rule book in existence that provides everything that all the Grahas, Vargas and Bhavas rule and this is something that a skilled astrologers learns how to do on the fly by combining their understanding about the Bhavas, Grahas and Vargas in order to deduce the correct astrological factors for anything that they may want to examine in the chart. That is why it is so important to learn and memorize all the planetary information given in Graha Sutras, in addition to understanding the Vargas as shown in the Vargas Video Course and knowing the Bhava meanings as given in Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra - which meanings I have translated for several different courses. While there are an unlimited amount of things that an astrologer may want to predict, there are a few most important things to predict that are most important to the client and to life. These are the things indicated by the critical Bhava in each Varga in conjunction with the primary Graha in each Varga. These are being listed below along with their meanings.
