Nadi astrology is fascinating in that it considers the sub-lords of the nakshatra to be more powerful than the placement of the planets themselves for analysing the timing of events. Nonetheless, it's a good technique to use especially when many planets are in dusthanas. How can it be a good technique if it differs from other methods which also claim to be having an effect on human affairs? The planets can't be having a different effect in different systems as they are in the same place. The easiest explanation is that all astrological systems are wrong, they have no effect and therefore you can have whatever vague system you like as any claimed "hits" are always designated after the events anyway. If it was dependable you could set up a test of which - if any - was the superior system. If there was anything to it at all you wouldn't get different results from the same planetary placements. You wouldn't be considering it interesting you would be able to show that one of them is wrong, but as it's all open to interpretation you can't tell if any of them work at all! Since Nadi astrology uses the Placidus system or it's equivalent, planets can be placed differently than using the typical sidereal system in vedic astrology. For example, if a person has the Moon in the 8th house in the regular jyotish method, the Moon can be placed in the 7th using Nadi astrology. So, the placement of the Moon has improved and the readings for the individual would change as well. So the planets can be in different places, which changes the readings. Can you really not work out from that that astrology is a load of nonsense? Just to underline it, the planets aren't in different places. They are where they always are, orbiting the sun with the Earth, which is just another planet. If they have an effect in one place, they will have a different effect in another place. They can't both be right. This is the trouble (one of them anyway) with inadequate theories, you can vary entities and get the same claimed effect. This should be a way of sorting one from the other. They can't both be right and are therefore most likely both wrong. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <noozguru@...> wrote : I've taken workshops on Nadi astrology. Nakshatras are icing on the cake and not the cake itself. Foolish astrologers like use them to look sophisticated when real astrologers just use simple techniques. Regarding Nadi astrology there is a system in it of apply 9 years to each of the planets from birth instead of using dashas. Given there is research confirming recurring 80 year cycles found for over a millennium there might be something too it. But you can always apply it to charts and see if it plays out.

However, he presents his lectures mostly in Hindi. I labored by listening through his lectures, even though I don't speak or understand a word of Hindi. From what I could gather by inference, Nadi astrology gives a person another dimension to understand the birth chart. The technique basically uses the sub-lords of the nakshatra as the basis for making predictions and assessing the tendencies of the entire kundali. It's another version of the Krishnamurti Padhati system. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com mailto:FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <noozguru@...> mailto:noozguru@... wrote : In some schools of Jyotish Jupiter is a benefic for Libra ascedants but in others a first class malefic. Now in my Jupiter dasha I would say it is a first class malefic and is following the description of such. You'll have to wait a few years for Rahu and Ketu to move into exaltation. My Rahu is exalted in the 8th and the recently completed Rahu dasha was the most successful of my life so far. As Richard would say, go figger.
