By G. H. Visweswara, India Editor: Senthil Ananth T, Singapore Introduction Sri G. H. Visweswara (born in 1950) has a B.E in Electronics from Bangalore and a PG Diploma in Computer Science from IIT, Bombay, with honours. He has worked in very senior positions up to that of CEO and MD in the Information Technology industry, particularly in R&D for the past 37 years. He has learnt astrology by himself by studying many of the best books and authors, including the classics. There is a well-known saying that "Marriages are made in Heaven". Among Hindus, it is widely accepted that marriage is a result of Rinanubandha or karmic-debt. Hence, the person you will marry is pre-determined. Parents of children, whose marriages are delayed inspite of considerable search, console themselves that the pre-destined person has not yet come into their radar of search. Generally pairing is considered by performing the well-known Guna or koota based matching and a few other considerations such as (i) Kuja dosha, (ii) balancing afflictions to marriage related houses and (iii) avoiding simultaneous unfavourable dashas. However, if a few more, easily assessable factors, which occur with high probability, can be established, it may help in strengthening the process of matching & bring it closer to the determination of the pre-destined person or to establish the rinanubandha (Karma-debt). 1
The Approach This article is written after analysing horoscopes of 25 married couples, specifically the three houses related to karma: The sixth house (6H) considered to represent pending karmas, The ninth house (9H) considered to represent present birth karma and The tenth house (10H) which stands for nature & way of performing karma. This analysis therefore has tested the condition on 50 individuals who were born strangers but became husband and wife. All the cases are from Indian marriages and a few of them include love marriages too. The Result mong all cases analysed here, a common pattern is observed regarding the above mentioned houses between the male and the female horoscopes. Specifically, AIn D-1, the influence on and/or by Ninth lord (9L), Sixth lord (6L) & Tenth lord (10L) has very similar or identical pattern in both the horoscopes. This indicates some kind of karma-connection between the two people who came together in marriage. The pattern forming similar influence is determined by observing: (i) the influence of each of these house lords on similar houses (ii) the influence of similar house lords on each of these house lords by aspect, conjunction or exchange, and a combination of the above observations. This pattern is visible in the charts of the couples in both stable marriages as well as disturbed/divorced marriages. This factor seems to bring them together in a bond, irrespective of the duration of married life. The breaking of the bond happens due to other astrological factors. Conclusion At this stage, it may need more observations and study. The interesting observation has been shared by the author to trigger others to explore a more accurate & definitive system of horoscope matching. No strong recommendations are made at this stage.
