Ans. The planets move as
per their Nirayana value in the
sky. This can be easily
checked by matching
Moon’s movement through
various zodiac signs.
Chaitrapaksha Ayanamsa,
popularly known as Lahiri
Ayanamsa, only has the scientific
approval of the international
astronomers and
this should only be used, irrespective
of what results you
get astrologically. You should
modify your astrological rules
to suit the astronomical computations,
but not vice versa.
Ques. Should we rely on
Dasha or Gochar? If Dasha
is good and Gochar is bad
then what will be the result?
Ans. Dasha and Gochar,
both are equally important in
determining the event in a
horoscope. However Gochar
can be accurately known, but
Dasha is very sensitive to
time of birth and cannot be
accurately fixed. Secondly,
there are too many kinds of
known Dasha systems and
we do not know for sure
which Dasha should be applied,
when doubts on
Ayanamsa also takes away
its authenticity. Further
Dasha is normally dependent
upon Moon degrees only
and it ignores rest of the planets.
All these shortcomings
are not there in the transit system.
Hence basing the predictions
on transits normally
give better results, unless it
has been checked that the
Dasha system is working
properly on the given horoscope.
