I
t was 1.45 am in the morning & a 92 yr
old man was observing the horoscope
of his daughter. I asked “Gurudev
what are you doing”. “I am watching
Kailash’s horoscope. All planets are
transiting through the signs having less
than 20 bindus. At 4 pm only the moon
entered in sign having 40 Bindus” gurudev
said. I replied “Gurudev God has given us
2 days time. All will be well”. It was the
most important time of my life when I
was with the man of astrology, the
Astrologer of the Millennium Shree C.S
Patel, Kailashben was the elder daughter of
Gurudev and both had been living in
Mumbai for long. I was there because I
had gone there to see the library of this
great personality. At 8.30pm Kailashben
had heart attack. After admitting her in
the hospital I returned home at 1.45am. I
was worried about Gurudev as he loved his
daughter a lot & if even his health suffered
due to this sudden turn of events. During
stressful periods we often forget our breath
i.e. astrology but Gurudev had faith on
astrology. And since then my faith in this
science increased, as I learnt a lot from my
Gurudev. I am one of those luckiest people
who could get love from My Gurudev.
The most valuable gift I got from him is
the confidence to predict. Not only I learnt
techniques from him but also learnt how to
apply it from a practical point of view. The
knowledge that I got from him, I give to
my students at Bhartiya Jyotisha Sansthan at Ahmadabad. I want to convey how my Gurus
Knowledge can fine tune ones predictive ability.

On August 4, 2008 at 2.30p.m. I had massive heart attack which was expected according
to my horoscope. Let’s check this event in my & in my nephew’s Horoscope.

When Saturn transits in Navamsa sign of Eighth lord of any sign or trine of it and Saturn
comes on the degree of the lord of transiting sign, the house gives bad results.

Application

1) First look at where transit Saturn is i.e. in which Sign & then note the signs trine to it.
Thus you would get 3 signs
2) Then look at the natal Navamsa (9th harmonic) chart, check if these 3 signs as noted
above have any planets situated in it.
3) Suppose there are planets then see with which house (A) they are connected in Rashi
chart
4) Then count the sixth house from there, which would be house (B)
5) Keep in mind that the things related with that house (B) will be marred.
6) The bad results will be felt when transiting Saturn will fall on the degree (in natal
chart) of the lord of transiting sign or the Navamsa of that planet.

According to Gurudev the transit in the whole distance of concerned Navamsa should be
considered to predict the event. This technique can be used easily.

 Example: 1

Now watch Saturn’s transits. It is transiting in Leo and trine signs of Leo are Aries
and Sagittarius. So we have to observe these three signs in Navamsa chart. In my horoscope
Jupiter & Moon are in Aries, Sun & Ketu are in Sagittarius. Leaving Ketu the remaining
three planets are lord of 8th, 11th, 3rd and 4th.

ü Sixth house from 8th is Ascendant means ‘I’.

ü Sixth from 11th means 4th house of heart,
ü Sixth from 4th house means 9th house (vitality of heart) and
165
ü Sixth from third means 8th house (longevity) all this houses were affected in one way or
other resulting in an event.

On September 4 2007 Saturn in Leo was 6 011’. In my horoscope the dispositor of transiting
Saturn is Sun at 50 15’. Means it falls between 30 20’ to 60 40’ Navamsa. So when Saturn
transited through this Navamsa during August 13 2007 to September 8 2007 I faced the
situation given below.
(1) On September 4 2008, Tuesday at 2.30 p.m. I had a severe heart attack which is related
with ascendant (Saturn’s transit in trine signs of Jupiter‘s navmasa and Jupiter is lord of 8th
house)

(2) On August 20 2007 we had When Saturn transits in Navamsa sign of Eighth
decided to sell my parental lord of any sign or trine of it and Saturn comes on
property valued at 10 million
rupees, but the interference of my the degree of the lord of transiting sign, the house
neighbor made this sale impossible gives bad results.
at that time and now real estate
has slumped making it non‐profitable to sell. This is related with 8th, 4th and 9 th house.

Now let’s see this in my nephew’s horoscope.

Example: 2

166
 In my nephew’s horoscope ascendant lord Saturn is in Leo Navamsa, on 4th Sept 2008
Tr Saturn was in Leo and trine signs of Leo are Aries & Sagittarius. In Navamsa chart there
is no planet in Aries but there is Saturn, Mars in Leo & Rahu in Sagittarius. Sun is 60 37’
means it is in Navamsa of 30 20’ to 60 40’ Saturn transit through this Navamsa during 13‐8‐
2007 to 8‐9‐2007 and on 4‐9‐2007 I the maternal uncle had to face deadly pain in the heart.
Saturn is lord of ascendant and counting 6 houses from it you get the house of maternal
uncle or aunts.

Example: 3

167
This is horoscope is of Shree C.S.Patel’s disciple, at present Saturn is Transiting in Leo and
trine signs of Leo are Aries and Sagittarius. So we observe these signs
in Navamsa chart. In D9 chart Aries is empty, Saturn Mercury are
in Leo & Sun Mars in Sagittarius. From 27‐11‐2008 to 5‐2‐2009 (Tr
Sat in Sag Navamsa) and 13‐8‐2009 to 10‐9‐2009 (Tr Sat in Sag
Navamsa) Saturn will be in the degree of its dispositor i.e. Sun
260 51’ means Saturn will transit in that D9 from 260 40’ to 300 00’.
Saturn is lord of 8th and sixth from 8th is ascendant indicating
subject himself (Jatak) moreover Saturn is lord of 9th house, from 9th
house the 6th house is 2nd house which shows money and family.
Mercury is lord of ascendant and sixth house from ascendant is 6th house which shows
maternal uncle or maternal family. Mercury is also lord of 4th house and 6th from 4th is house
of Father and Dharma. So he should take care of all things as shown above.

A
nother principle given by Gurudev C.S. Patel is also rule of thumb. It is about Rahu
Mahadasha and Saturn’s Transit. I have tested this principle and found perfect.
Conveying my regards at the lotus feet of my Gurudev we discuss this rule here.

During Rahu Mahadasha if Tr Saturn moves in the 8th sign from Moon Navamsa Sign. It
will create lot of troubles for subject regarding finance, career and other things. During this
period even favorable yoga will not work.

168
For practical use of this method I first observe whether Rahu Mahadasha is going on or not
in a chart. If it is on then pay attention to Moon’s Navamsa and find whether Saturn is
transiting through the 8th sign of Moon Navamsa sign or not. If this situation is there,
subject should be advised to be careful because this time is not favorable for the Subject
(Jatak).

house, the native took money from her provident fund, she also surrendered her L.I.C.

to the end of 2007 she had to pay that borrowed money.

This is a horoscope of a man who is into
business. Suddenly, his business went slump
resulting in heavy losses. He visited many
astrologers but they could not deduce what Saturn transits through the 7th sign from

the tune of nearly Rs 35 lakhs ($82,781) and it
is only now he is coming out of this
problem.

It is my observation of many years that this

Rahu Dasa & Tr Sat in 8 th from Navamsa
Moon Sign is far more worse than Sade Sati,
Dhaiya or Kantak Shani.

In this way combination of Mahadasha and

Antardasha with transit is shown in the
following shloka, we can use this technique
in the way we have discussed above.
