Analysis of Bhavas (Houses) - Attributes and Role of Planets

Understanding profound subjects like astrology and delving into their depths is not that simple. It requires years of practice and the grace of a guru (teacher) to comprehend this divine knowledge. The pioneers of Jyotish Shastra (Vedic astrology) have encapsulated it in a systematic manner. It assigns significance to planets, zodiac signs, houses, yogas (combinations), and constellations in a way that complements each other.

Traditional principles are still as effective in contemporary times as they were in the past. Deciphering them according to Desh, Kaal, and Patra (Place, Time, and Person) poses a challenging task.

In the analysis of a birth chart or horoscope, the calculation of the twelve houses is considered the fundamental basis. Knowledge related to planetary significations is possible through these houses. In Vedic astrology, whether predicting outcomes or answering questions, each house holds its own importance and encompasses the present, past, and future. Several scriptures have meticulously examined the attributes and qualities of houses.

In this series, basing the Kundali (birth chart) on the Kal Purush (time) standard, the attempt is to reveal the significations and attributes of beneficial houses in practical Vedic astrology, as per one's limited and limitless understanding and experience. It involves the combined knowledge of various Jyotish scriptures, Hindu religious texts, Manusmriti, Upanishads, Nakshatra Vidya (constellation knowledge), accomplished scholars, modern research and exploration, teachers, and Dharm Narayan (DN) type exceptionally talented friends.

This pandit (scholar) humbly acknowledges that this is neither a new beginning nor the final stage. The aspiration is that knowledge reaches the curious and dedicated seekers with ease, guided by the blessings of a guru.
