KP rule has two portions in it, which I have mentioned below:-
a) The sub-lord of the house under consideration (Or) b) The lord of the star in which the sub-lord of the house under consideration is posited If either of above planet signifies the favorable houses to the house under consideration, then the event will take place. As per the above rule, which planet will become the sub-lord of the house under consideration? The following planets can only become the sub-lord of the house under consideration. a) The planet posited in the house b) The owner of the house As per the above rule, which planet will become the lord of the star in which sub-lord of the house under consideration is posited? The following planets can only become the lord of the star in which the sub-lord of the house under consideration is posited. c) The planet occupied the star of the planet posited in the house under consideration d) The planet occupied the star of the planet which own the house under consideration If we closely look in to the above points, we can understand that the sub lord of the house under consideration is a weak significator. The first portion of KP rule has been just borrowed from traditional Astrology and stellar concept does not come in to picture at all. Therefore no importance is to be given to the first portion of KP RULE (i.e. the sub-lord of the house under consideration). Whereas in the second portion of KP Rule (The lord of the star in which the sub-lord of the house under consideration is posited), stellar concept is fully applied. Therefore much importance is to be given to the second portion of the KP Rule. Although the KP system is considered as unique stellar system, still there is a presence of traditional rule within the system.
