Ashtakavarga System of Prediction [English]

Ashtakavarga System Of Prediction

The Ashtakavarga System, an exposition of which has been attempted in this book, has engaged my attention for a long time. It occupies an important place in the general scheme of Hindu astrology and offers considerable scope for an astrological student who has a scientific bent of mind for making further researches, especially in the matter of timing events. A large number of horoscopes taken out of my vast collections have been studied in the light of Ashtakavarga and a few important discoveries have also been made.

In regard to certain aspects of the system, such as whether the Ashtakavargas of Rahu and Lagana are to be considered, and whether the Ashtakavarga is to be reckoned on the basis of Rasis or Bhavas, there is difference of opinion even amongst ancient writers.
