The Other Timing Methods: A Journey into the World of Vedic Astrology

There are several other timing methods besides the Dashas and Gocharas. Covered in this book are the methods of Progression, Annual Horoscopy, and several other methods. The Progression section covers Rashi Progression, Varga Progression, Dasha Progression, and Madhyagraha Progression. The Madhyagraha Progression is a special topic that cannot be found elsewhere because the concept of Madhyagraha or the mean Graha is not dealt with in a Jyotish text. I have proposed this method based on my experience with Suryasiddhanta.

The Annual Kuṇḍalī covers Varshaphala, which is a Tajika Technique, and the Tithi Pravesha Cakra. I have added a new Varshaphala method called the Savana Varshaphala, which is based on the 360 days a year Savana Calendar. The other timing methods contain the Bhagyodaya Varsha, which is used for timing the rise of fortune. Also covered are the techniques of Candra’s Nakshatra method, Hillaja’s years, and Varsha, Masa and Dina Dasha.

The discourse section discusses several topics, including Varshapravesha and Tajika Varshapravesha, with several examples showing their practical usage. The book aims to provide earnest seekers with several timing methods which, when mastered, will improve the ability to time events accurately. No methods can be used in isolation, and when combined with other methods such as Dasha and Gochara can improve one’s predictive abilities.
