Paksha Bala

Sun’s Longitude – Moon’s Longitude

If value >180, deduct from 360. Divide value by 3. Result will be Sashtiyamsas (SS).

If value < 180, Divide value by 3. Result will be Sashtiyamsas.

Example: Sun’s Longitude = 2 deg & Moon Longitude = 192 deg.

2 – 192 = – 190 deg = 170 deg. 170/3 = 56.57 Sastiyamsas.

Example: Sun’s Longitude = 2 deg & Moon Longitude = 179 deg.

2 – 179 = – 177 = 183 deg. Hence deduct value from 360. ie 360 – 183 = 177. 177/3 = 59 SS.

Moon’s Paksha Bala always is multiplied by 2.

Paksha Bala for Malefics (Sat, Mar, Sun) = 60 – Paksha Bala for Benefics.

Mercury to be treated according to its association.

Hi, welcome to my site on Vedic Astrology. Just a brief introduction about myself. My name is Dinesh and I was born in Singapore. I graduated from Nanyang Technological University Mechanical Engineering in and graduated with Second Upper Class Honours. I was also a recipient of a Marine Scholarship and started of my Career in the Marine field. In 2013, my parents had visited an Astrologer and upon returning home, they told me that the Astrologer had made accurate predictions on specific incidents based on my Eldest Brother’s life. I was initially surprised to know how can an Astrologer be able to make such accurate predictions even without knowing him personally. Then one day, I stumbled upon a Book (Fundamentals of Indian Astrology by Kannan). I was completely glued to the book and completed understanding the book within 2 weeks. I then started visiting Prominent Astrologers in Singapore & India (while i was there) and realized they were able to make accurate predictions about my life. Surprisingly, a few astrologers even predicted I will start reading horoscopes in the future. In retrospect, it is true. I then started reading books and articles on Astrology and eventually completed a certification in Astrology from Bharathiya Vidya Bhavan, Delhi. I still do attend Distance Education courses whenever any renowned Institutions conduct Astrology Courses. Currently, I practice Astrology to spread the awareness that our Indian Forefathers have passed down to us and also aid people from various walks of life through Astrology. Vedic Astrology is a Gem that the Indian Sages propounded since ancient times. With this knowledge, one will be able to preempt the future and thereby take necessary actions to be cautious during adversities and be a risk taker during fortunate periods.
