Hi Ernst en all,
If Rahu is not producing yoga but its is conjunct with a yoga producing planet, how do you calculate rahu contribution to the points for the yoga? I see on Kala in the Rasi- Subha/Istha/Dig to Graha table Rahu is giving the points of Saturn. Do we give the positive or negative points to the yoga based on the lordship of Saturn?
TIA
so should i ignore the points that Kala puts in the table from Saturn and take the points from the nodes lord?
I believe that if a node is conjunct a yoga producing planet, then the node is also producing yoga.
If I recall right (taking this course right now), is that when a node is conjunct a yoga producing planet, the node will add whatever positive yoga points from the yoga producing planet it is conjunct. I look at the subha/ishta/dig to grahas table for that. You can add that positive yoga aspect points to the original (+) points of the nodes lord to see how powerful the yoga is for the node.
When a node is producing yoga via an aspect from a yoga producing planet, the node will give the results of the aspect from the yoga producing planet it is aspected from plus the (+) points of the lord of the sign that node is in.
I believe this is right from watching the various examples from the course. Maybe someone can clarify?
"Of that Bhava joined, or also with whatever it comes together declare that as imporant for the Dark
Grahas (Rahu & Ketu).
Inhabitting an angle or trine and joined or aspected by the lord of the other then the Dark Grahas
are Yogakarakas"
Brihat Parasara Hora Shastra, Yogakarakas, 16-17
Ie the nodes produces yoga when they are in an angle and joined or aspected by a trine lord or in an trine and aspected or joined by angular lord
