Saptavargaja Bala

In the concept of Shadbhala, there are 6 types of strength. They are as following; Sthanabala, Dikbala, Kalabala, Chestabala, Naisargika & Drigbala.

Out of which Staana Bala can be further classified into the following

In this article, I will explain about Saptavargaja Bala.

First we need to identify a planet’s position in D1,D2,D3, D7,D9,D12,D30 based on Panchada Maitri relationship (5 Fold Friendship)(I have not explained on the 5 Fold friendship table in this article).

Then we need to allot Shashtiyamsas for each graha based on the position in the Saptavargas (ie: D1,D2,D3, D7,D9,D12,D30) with referenece to the table below.

Position Relationship to the Sign Lord Based on 5 fold friendshipNumber of Shatiyamsas/Virupas allocated
Mooltrikona45
Swavarga / Own Sign30
Adhimitra varga/Extreme Friend Sign22.5
Mitra/Friend Varga15
Samavarga /Neutral7.5
Satruvarga /Enemy3.75
Adhisatru / Bitter Enemy1.875

Note: Based on DR BV Raman’s Book on Graha Balas, it is mentioned that when a planet is placed in the sign of Mooltrikona in D1, it only receives 45 Virupas but if it again sits in Mooltrikona in other varga charts, it will not be allotted 45 virupas again. And a planet can only be allotted 45 Virupas when it sits in Mooltrikona raasi in D1 chart. In all other charts, it should be viewed as graha sitting in its own Swavarga.

With this, we can tabulate the Saptavargaja Bala table. Refer to below for example.:

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.
