Timing through Grahas Nakshatra

Pada Transits: Part 2: 64th

Navamsa
This technique is taken from Predicting Through Navamsa and Nadi Astrology by Sri CS
Patel.
Sri CS Patel observes that whenever a slow Moving Graha Shani, Guru, Rahu and Ketu transits
through the 64th Navamsa from a natal slow moving planet, there is a significant event in the
natives life, good or bad. The transit through the 64th Navamsa from natal fast moving planets
such as Mangal, Surya, Shukra, Budha and Chandra, there is some event but of lesser
significance.
In my observation, Mangal should be kept in the category of slow moving planets as its orbit is
outside of the Earths orbit in the Solar system. Only Surya, the inner planets Budha and Shukra
as well as Chandra should be considered as fast moving planets.
I have also observed that the Transit of Slow moving planets through the 64th Navamsa of the
House Cusps also results in significant events pertaining to the House. For instance, if Malefics
such as Shani, Rahu or Ketu transits the 64th Navamsa of the 9th house cusp, there can be danger
to the father, that from 4th house cusp can indicate danger to mother, that from the 8th house
cusp can indicate danger or a grave calamity to the person. Classics such as Phaladeepika and
Jataka Parijata advises using the 22nd Drekkana and 64th Navamsa from all the Bhavas for
determining danger and misfortune.

How to identify the 64th Navamsa

The 64th Navamsa of any Graha, or house cusp can be known in the following manner.
1. In the Rasi chart, it will invariably fall in the 8th house from the Graha or the Bhava.
2. In the Navamsa chart, it will invariably fall in the 4th house from teh Graha or the Bhava
cusp.
The Bhava cusp will always fall in Kendra from Navamsa Lagna, in the equal house system.
This is as follows:
1. 159 cusps: In the Navamsa Lagna
2. 2610 cusps: In the 10th from the Navamsa Lagna
3. 3711 cusps: In the 7th from the Navamsa Lagna

4. 4812 cusps: In the 4th from the Navamsa Lagna

The 64th Navamsa (from Janma Lagna) is nothing but the cusp of the 8th house in the Navamsa
chart, hence will always fall in the 4th house from the Navamsa Lagna. Similarly, the 64th
Navamsa (from Janma Rasi) falls in the 4th house from Navamsa Chandra.

Illustration
Death of father: 17th February 1994

Nakshatra Transits in 1994

The Natives father was diagnosed having Cancer in October of 1993 but the native was informed
about this only in Jan 1994. He celebrated his fathers birthday on 6th February, wishing for
good health and returned back for his Engineering studies to his college. However, he received a
call on 17th February evening that something serious has happened. When he rushed back to the
place where his father was treated, he could not even see the last sight of his father, as his body
was cremated. This was the biggest shock in the natives life, too unbearable.
During this time, we note that Shani was transiting Aquarius, the 8th house from Shukra and the
natal Randhra Bhava. In the Navamsa we see that Shukra occupies Dhanu, while the transit

Shani was also in Dhanu Navamsa, on top of Shukra. This indicates that Shani had the ability to
impact Shukra, although it was not in the 64th Navamsa from Shukra. From the 9th house and
Karaka Surya, Shukra was the 3rd and 10th lord and occupied the 12th house from them. Graha
in the 12th house or the 12th lord have the power to kill. When Shani transited the 8th from the
Shukra and on the Navamsa sign housing Shukra, this happened.
Additionally, Shani was transiting the Rasi that is identical with the Trine from Surya and the 9th
lord. This also indicates danger to fathers life as per Chandra Kala Nadi.
Upon closer examination we find that, 8th house cusp is in 4th house from Navamsa Lagna. The
4th from there indicate the 64th Navamsa from the 8th house cusp. Malefic transits in the 64th
Navamsa from the 8th house indicate grave misfortune and even danger to the natives life. Shani
was transiting the 64th Navamsa from the 8th house, indicating grave misfortune to the native.
During the same time, Rahu was transiting the 8th house in the Rasi chart in Karka, aspecting
Karaka Surya and the 9th Lord in Simha using its 2nd aspect (12th aspect in reverse). In the
Navamsa, it was transiting Simha, influencing the the grahas occupying Simha in the Rasi chart
and Navamsa Chart. We observe that in the Rasi chart, Simha is the 9th house and contain the 9th
lord Surya and 10th lord (2nd lord from Surya), indicating danger to fathers life. The affliction
to Surya and 9th lord in Rasi and Navamsa causes grave danger to the fathers life.

Future prediction
Now that Guru is going to transit Kanya in August 2016. We note that Kanya is 8th house from
Natal Guru. In the Navamsa, since Guru is occupying Mesha, the 64th Navamsa is in 4th house
from Mesha, i.e., Karka. Thus when Guru transits through Kanya RasiKarka

Navamsa, it will
be transiting 64th Navamsa from natal Guru. Since Guru will be in Uccha Navamsa during this
time, Guru is the Lagna and 4th lord aspecting the 9th house, this is going to be an eventful
period in the natives life. This will happen between 16th November to 4th December 2016.
This can give rise to a very important auspicious event during this time.
Similarly, the 64th Navamsa of Guru can be checked from Natal Rasi and Navamsa
position of various Bhava cusps and Grahas can be ascertained.
