When many planets are in a single rashi, esp in one nakshatra with Mars and Sun joining
them and Mars is with Rahu, there can be terrible downpour, even if it is not rainy season
If Moon joins Venus or in Trikona, weather fluctuation takes place; in rainy season, good
rains, unless preventing factors are present
Transit of Mars from one rashi to another, perceptible change in weather within 2 days; if in
rainy season, good rainfall. Mars is the most powerful planet causing rainfall.
if a major planet changes rashi, noticeable change in weather.
When planets retrograde or become direct, change in temperature, humidity. Mercury
important planet to notice. Venus alone, either retro or direct, cannot influence weather
If strong Moon is aspected by the dispositor, rains
More benefics in DakshinaNadi: rains; more malefics in UttaraNadi: no rains
Cloud formation when Mercury and Venus, Mercury and Jupiter and Venus-Jupiter are
together. In favourablerashi and favourable aspects, rains occur.
Venus behind slow moving planet causes wind. Many planets in Pawannadi: destructive nadi

Factors preventing Rains

1. Sun in between Venus and Mercury, dry spell for a few days; a break in rains
2. Jupiter-Mars within 30 degrees, prevents rain
3. If Mars is ahead of Sun in rainy season: worst combination.

Ardra Pravesha Chakra

Monsoon rains start in N India when Sun enters ArdraNakshatra. Horoscope cast for that time gives
us information about the rains that take place in that year. Delhi is taken as point of reference; some
astrologers opine that Varanasi should be considered. Monsoon continues till Sun enters Swati.
Role of Rashis
Twelve rashis have been divided in to following categories on the basis of water content:
1.
2.
3.
4.

Fiery: Aries 25%, Leo 0% and Sagittarius 50%

Earthy: Taurus 50%, Virgo 0%, and Capricorn 100%
Airy: Gemini 0%, Libra 25%, Aquarius 50%
Cancer 100%, Scorpio 25%, Pisces 100%

Moon, Venus, Mercury and Jupiter gives plenty of rain while, malefic planets Sun, Mars and Saturn
are dry, preventing rain.
Directions and Places in the Horoscope
Lagna is always East; 10th house South; 7th West and 4th North
1. East: Bengal, Bihar, Jharkhand, Mizoram, eastern MP
2. North East: 2ndand 3rd houses: Bhutan, Assam, Meghalaya, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland,
Manipur, Sikkim
3. North: 4th house: Delhi, Punjab, Haryana, HP, UP, Nepal, Parts of J & K, Tibet, Uttaranchal
4. North West: 5th and 6th houses: Baluchistan, Rawalpindi, Peshawar, Afghanistan
5. West: 7th house: Gujarat, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, western part of MP, Sindh, West Punjab,
Multan, Daman and Diu

7. South: 10th house: TN< parts of AP, Pondicherry
8. South East: 11th and 12th houses: Orissa, parts of West Bengal, parts of Andhra, East Coast,
Andaman and Nicobar
Role of Sun and Mars: If together, they become intensely dry. Also if Sun is behind Mars, no rains
Sun and Saturn: Together in one rashi: in summer, intense heat; in winter, severe cold
Saturn is karaka for wind and dryness. Strong wind and storms are caused.
If in airy nadi, drives away clouds.
In watery nadi, storms and rain; if aspected or with watery planets, more so
Date of rains
1. Entry of Sun to Mrigashira, southwest monsoon strikes the coast of Kerala
2. Suns entry in to Kanya, beginning of withdrawal from North
3. Suns entry in to Hastha, rains in Bihar
4. Some occasional rains when Sun enters Chitra or it may mean withdrawal of SW monsoon
