55. Manifold Births

Ch. 1. Birth of Horasastra

1. Glory to the Sun-God, whose very breathing causes Creation in this world, with whose

rising all the animals (living beings) wake up (from the sleep of their ignorance), whose state

at the head (zenith) accentuates all activities (throws the brightest light on one's wisdom) and

whose setting (absence, weakness) causes all to sleep. Such Sun-God has his efficacy

spread (all over).

2-4. Varaha Mihira in his Horasastra, i.e. Brhat Jataka, stated briefly the essence of the

teachings of the learned sages viz. ten divisions of the Zodiacal Sign, Raja Yogas, longevity,

effects of planetary periods etc. This could not be done elaborately by him and hence I am

conveying in this work such useful essence, as called out from Yavanas etc., rejecting other

unuseful portions, which may be appended to the said Brihat Jataka.

5. I, Kalyana Varma, whose fame on account of patronizing Gods and administering villages

and cities is brilliant, like that of a female swan in the cage of the universe, who is the king of

Vyagrapada region, present this Saravali, an astrological treatise, with a chaste heart.

6. Saravali is a river with chilly water, which has taken its birth in the mountain called Kalyana

Varma, to ward off the thirst for astrology of those interested.

Thus ends the 1 st Ch. Birth of Horasastra in Kalyana Varma's Saravali

Ch. 2. Meaning of Hora

1-5. The Creator Brahma has written on the foreheads of all living beings their fates, which are

deciphered by the astrologers through their pure insight. The first and last letters in the word

Ahoratra are removed and the word Hora is thus born and has come to exist. The Zodiac and

the planets are therein, as discussed. Some scholars say Horasastra is indicative of effects of

one's Karma, i.e. fate. Some call Lagna, or half of a Rasi, as Hora. In practice the science

relating to horoscope is called Horasastra. Hora is capable of analyzing the destiny. Barring

this Horasastra there is no device to help one earn money, to help, as a boat, to cross the

ocean of unexpected situations and to serve, as an advisor in journey.

Thus ends the 2 nd Ch. Meaning of Hora in Kalyana Varma's Saravali

Ch. 3. Rasi Description

1-2. At the time of Pralaya (Destruction) the Universe plunged into darkness and was flooded

with water, when all of a sudden the Sun-God with his brilliant rays appeared in the Universe.

He created all the planets and the 12 months.

3-4. Description of the 12 Rasis. The names of the 12 Rasis are Aries, Taurus, Gemini,

file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/Tom%20Rakewell/Mijn%20documenten/Downloads/Vedic/saravali.htm[15-11-2010 16:36:14]

Kalyana Varma's Sāravalī

Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. The Sign

Aquarius resembles a man holding a pot, while Gemini is compared to a couple holding Veena

and mace. A pair of fish is the imagination about Pisces. Sagittarius is compared to a man

having a hip, like that of a horse and holding an arch in his hands. Deer-faced Sign is

Capricorn. Virgo resembles a virgin sitting in a boat with a lamp in her hands. A male holding

Scales in his hand represents Libra. The other Signs are identical with their names.

5-6. The Limbs of KalaPurusha and their Use. The Signs Aries etc. represent the limbs of

Kalapurusha, as under: Aries head, Taurus face, Gemini arms, Cancer heart, Leo stomach,

Virgo hip, Libra space below navel and private parts, Scorpio private parts, Sagittarius thighs,

Capricorn knees, Aquarius ankles, Pisces feet. If at birth one has benefic planet in a particular

Sign, the particular limb will be strong. A malefic makes such a limb weak.

7. Synonyms of Rasis. Kriya, Tavuru, Jutuma, Kulira, Leya, Pathona, Jook, Kaurpika,

Tauksha, Akokera, Hridaya Roga and Anthya are the other names given, respectively, to

Rasis from Aries onwards.

8. Synonyms for Houses. Riksha, Rasi, Kshetra, Bha and Bhavana are identical names given

to a House by the sages.

9-10. Zodiacal Halves, their Lords and Effects. The Rasi Chakra with 12 Rasis is called

Bhagana. Six Signs counted from Leo to Capricorn consist of Solar Half and the Sun rules this

Half-Zodiac. Six Signs in the reverse order from Cancer to Aquarius are Lunar Half and ruled

by the Moon. Barring Cancer and Leo, planets from Mars to Saturn get one Rasi each in each

Half. If at birth more planets occupy the Solar Half, the native is brilliant and, if more planets

are in Lunar Half, he is soft, good and lucky.

11. The Rulers of Rasis and Navansas. Mars, Venus, Mercury, Moon, Sun, Mercury, Venus,

Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Saturn and Jupiter are the Lords, respectively, of Aries to Pisces. The

Navansas for these Rasis are calculated from Aries, Capricorn, Libra and Cancer in their

order.

12. Sub-Divisions Essential. The effects of a horoscope should be predicted according to the

divisions of Houses. Without knowing the strength of such Lords, one cannot lay even a step

forward in the direction of astrology.

13. Vargothamamsa. The first Navansa of a Movable Rasi, the 5 th one in a Fixed Rasi and the

9 th one in a Common (Dual) Rasi are called Vargothamamsa. Should the natal Lagna be in

such Vargothama Navansa, the native becomes an important person in his circle. The rulers

of Dwadasamasas start from that Rasi itself.

14. Lords of Decanates and Horas. The Lords of decanates are first Lord of the same Rasi,

second Lord of the 5 th Rasi therefrom and third Lord of the 9 th from the Rasi in question. The

first Hora of an odd Rasi belongs to the Sun, while the second one is ruled by the Moon. In

the case of an even Rasi the first Hora is ruled by the Moon and the second by the Sun.

15. Lords of Trimsamsas. In odd Signs 5, 5, 8, 7 and 5 degrees are Trimsamsas of Mars,

Saturn, Jupiter, Mercury and Venus, respectively, while the arrangement is reverse in even

Signs.

16. Lords of Sapthamsas. The Sapthamsas for the 12 Rasis from Aries onwards are,

respectively, counted from Aries, Scorpio, Gemini, Capricorn, Leo, Pisces, Libra, Taurus,

Sagittarius, Cancer, Aquarius and Virgo. The Lords thereof are those, in whose Rasis they fall.

l7. The total of the number of Horas and that of decanates is sixty (24+36) in the entire Zodiac.

The figure is increased by 72, if the total of Horas + Navansas is required, i.e.

60+72=24+108=132. Each Rasi has 1800 Kalas (30°, each of 60').

18. Different Vargas. To know any kind of Varga (Hora, Navansa, Drekkana etc.) adopt the

following method. Convert the longitude into minutes of arc and multiply by the Varga figure

concerned. Divide the product by 1800. The resultant figure will reveal the required Varga.

19. The malefic and benefic effects of such Vargas are explained in detail in the Nashta

Jataka chapters (at the end).

20-21. Rasis Benefic and Malefic, Gandanta and its Effects. From Aries onwards alternatively

the Rasis are known, as malefic and benefic on the one hand and male and female on the

other hand. These are also classified, as Chara (Movable), Sthira (Fixed, Immovable) and

DvisvaBhava (Ubhaya, Dual, Common) Rasis. The ending portions of Cancer, Scorpio and

Pisces are called Gandanta. It is said, that one born in Gandanta will not survive. He will either

lose his mother, or he will end the dynasty, i.e. he is the last of his descent and will not have

any children. If, however, he survives, he becomes a king with many elephants and horses.

22. Directions of Rasis. The four Rasis from Aries onwards indicate East, South, West and

North, while the remaining Rasis repeat in the same way. A journey undertaken by a person

towards the direction indicated by the Lagna, or the Moon (at the commencement of journey)

yields fruitful results.

23. DigBala and KalaBala. Human Signs, quadruped Signs, Scorpio and watery Signs are,

respectively, strong in the directions commencing from the East. Further during night-time
