Numerology in
Astrology
Mr. Benadi was born in a Jain business
family in Chinchali, Belgaum district,
Karnataka in the year 1939. In 1970, Mr.
Benadi went to Germany, where he settled
down as a structural consultant and retired
in July 2004. In 1991, he consulted 3
astrologers to find out whether the
muhurtha chosen by him for building a
house was good. All of them said OK. In
spite of that, he had quite a few difficulties
while building his house. From then
onwards he studied Astrology much more
seriously and found out that there were
flaws in the muhurtha chosen. In course of
his study, he met several senior astrologers
like Dr. BV Raman, Dr. Vasan, Prof. RG Rao,
Dr. Krishna Kumar, late R Santhanam, late
C S Patel, Dr Desika, late S K Kelkar, late
Dr CG Thakkur and enjoyed astrological
interaction with them.

W hile I have been studying
Astrology for a number of
years, I was wondering if
there is a connection between Astrology
and Numerology. I found out in a number
of horoscopes that numerology is reflected
in the astrological D-1 and D-9 charts plus
the Nakshatras and the birth dates. This is
illustrated in this article using the charts of
well known people.
The following assumptions have been
made for the illustration:
1 represents Sun
2 represents Moon
3 represents Jupiter
4 represents Rahu/ negative aspect of
Sun (1and 4 exchangeable)
5 represents Mercury
6 represents Venus
7 represents Ketu/ negative aspect of
Moon(2 and 7 exchangeable)
8 Represents Saturn
9 Represents Mars
Application: With the help of numerology,
a check on the correctness of the birth-data
can be made. Either the birth number, or
the destiny number are connected with
1. Natal Ascendant or D-9 Ascendant
2. Ascendant lord or and Moon sign
lord
3. Lords of Nakshatras occupied by
Moon or Ascendant lord.
Birth number 1+4=5. Destiny number 1+4+1+1+1+8+8+9=33 3+3=6

Both Ascendant and Moon are in the Nakshatra of Ashlesha whose lord is Mercury. Birth
number 5 represents Mercury. Destiny number 6 represents Venus. Venus is with the
Ascendant lord Moon in D-9 Chart.

Example 2. Rajiv Gandhi DOB 20-08-1944 in Mumbai at 8.11.AM Lat.18N58, Long.72E49

Birth number 2 Destiny number 20+8+1+9+4+4=46 4+6= 10 which means 1

Moon representing 2 is also in D-1 Ascendant.
