Kal Sarpa Yoga-I

ॐ श्री गुरावे नमः !
ॐ नमः शिवाय!

Kal Sarpa Yoga, it is considered a dreadful astrological condition, which is sometimes blown out of proportion by many for obvious reasons, people with this yoga suffer from hardship and delays in their life and once they are told by the Astrologer that they have Kal Sarpa Yoga, then the unnecessary stress, all is in the mind, to accept or not to accept.

While interacting on one of the leading Astro based forum, I did some research with this topic and many contributed to this data (For which I am thankful), well there are two sides to this issue, those who think it is a genuine yoga and should be treated like any other yoga, and there are others who think this is mere bulls**t. in the first group there are few who think that it is not a yoga (Status) but it is a dosha (Anomaly), so it should be treated by proper techniques, like Pooja, Yagya, charity etc.

What exactly is Kal Sarpa Yoga/Kal Amrita Yoga are?

View I- When all the planets are hemmed between Rahu and Ketu (i.e., the moon's north node and the moon's south node), Kal Sarpa Yoga is formed. Complete Kal Sarpa Yoga is formed only when half of the chart is unoccupied by planets.

Even if one planet is outside the Rahu-Ketu Axis, there is no Kal SarpaYoga. Before you do any remedies for the Kal Sarpa Yoga, make sure that all planets are between Rahu and Ketu. 

The Kal Sarpa Yoga is not always bad. It has the power to confer gains too. All planets must be hemmed between Rahu and Ketu. Even if one planet is outside the Rahu Ketu axis there is no Kal Sarpa Yoga. Rahu is the moon's north node. Ketu is the moon's south node.

View II- A lot has been read, said and discussed about the Kal Sarpa Yoga. This yoga, and please notice the choice of words - it is a yoga (Status) and _not_ a dosha (Anomaly), is caused when all the planets are hemmed between Rahu and Ketu. The figure on the side illustrates this point. If a person has Kal Sarpa Yoga in his Horoscope/kundali, Rahu and Ketu are said to limit the potential of the chart and not allow other important yogas to take effect.

In practise, it is observed that this role of Rahu and Ketu diminishes over time and good things are just delayed for such people.

Again, noted Astrologer Dr. B.V. Raman is of the opinion that if the ascendant is on the other axis while all the planets are hemmed on one side of the axis, then the evil arising out of Kal Sarpa Yoga almost gets neutralized.

This is just a commentary on what I have learned about Kal Sarpa Yoga over the years. My advice to the readers is not to take this yoga too seriously and go on with the life.

Research shows that this yoga was not a part of classical texts written by great sages like Parashara, Bhrigu etc. but gained importance later.

View I-Type of Kal Sarpa Yoga, when Rahu is in the first House and Ketu in the seventh house and the rest of the planets are to the left of this axis the Yoga which arises is the Anant Kal Sarpa Yoga. This is also called as Vipareeta Kal Sarpa yoga opposite Kal Sarpa Yoga. Though this yoga has the power to give windfall gains to the native, it is bad for marital life. Generally natives with this yoga get married late in life.

View II - Types of Kal Sarpa Yoga, There are 12 types of Kal Sarpa Yoga. Kal Amrita Yoga is not a seperate yoga.

View I- Anant Kalsarpa Yoga - Rahu in Lagna, Ketu in seventh house: The person is prone to be target of conspiracies hatched by people supposedly close to him. The person is likely to lose out in matters of courts. Married life would be marred by differences between husband and wife.

View I - Kulik Kal Sarpa Yoga, When Rahu occupies the second house and Ketu the eighth house Kulik Kal Sarpa Yoga arises. This combination is bad for health. The probability of losses and accidents is high with natives of this combination. This is bad for financial prosperity too. The native is worried on account of an insecure financial standing.

View II-Kulika Kal Sarpa Yoga- Rahu in second house, Ketu in eighth: This combination is not good for the person's health. Expenses would be more then the income and the financial situation would remain fairly mediocre. He has to struggle a lot in life to achieve something.

View I- Vasuki Kal Sarpa Yoga- When Rahu occupies the third house and Ketu the ninth house and the rest of the planets are located to the left of the Rahu Ketu axis, this yoga is born. The native is burdened with problems relating to job and business.

View II - Vasuki Kal Sarpa Yoga - Rahu in third house, Ketu in ninth: The person would have trouble dealing with his brothers and friends. Travel to foreign countries would create problems. The person having this combination in his chart should take precautions in deals by paying extra attention towards legal documentation.

View I -Shankpal Kal Sarpa Yoga- When Rahu occupies the 4th house and Ketu the 10th this yoga is formed. The native gets trouble relating to work sphere and has to go through stress and anxiety. Sometimes the native has an illegitimate child, or can be an illegitimate child. However this yoga also has the power of conferring high political success and windfall gains.

View II- Shankapal Kal Sarpa Yoga - Rahu in fourth house, Ketu in tenth: The person with this combination would never be satisfied with his financial situation and would always strive for more. The person is prone to troubles relating to immovable property - e.g. land, houses and modes of conveyance - e.g. cars

View I -Padam Kal Sarpa Yoga- When Rahu occupies the fifth house and Ketu the eleventh house this Yoga is formed. The native is worried on account of children. There is difficulty in getting a progeny. If the moon is also afflicted then there is the possibility of being troubled by spirits. In this case if a native falls ill the recovery time is slow. There are also chances of being let down by friends in this case.

View II- Padma Kal Sarpa Yoga - Rahu in fifth house, Ketu in eleventh: The person would have trouble with children. The person should never try his luck in lottery, share markets, and anything where speculation is involved.

View I -Mahapadam Kal Sarpa Yoga- This yoga is formed when Rahu is in the 6th house and Ketu is in the twelfth house. The native has many enemies and has problems on account of diseases. However, if this yoga acts beneficially, it has the power to confer power and political success.

View II-Mahapadma Kal Sarpa Yoga - Rahu in sixth house, Ketu in twelfth: The person would not do well in relationships and would have a very pessimistic view of life.

View I- Takshak Kal Sarpa Yoga- When Rahu is in the seventh house and Ketu in the first house this yoga is formed. The native has speculative tendencies and can lose wealth by way of wine, women and gambling. There is marital discord in the life of the native.

View II - Takshak Kal Sarpa Yoga - Rahu in seventh house, Ketu in first: There is a need for the person to be extra careful in matter relating to married life and business partnerships.

View I- Karkotak Kal Sarpa Yoga- When Rahu occupies the eighth house and Ketu the second house this yoga is formed. The native is short tempered and has many enemies. Such a native has friendship with anti-social elements. The native does not get paternal wealth.

View II - Karkotik Kal Sarpa Yoga - Rahu in eighth house, Ketu in second: The person does not benefit from any paternal property. There would be a lot of trust issues between the person and his friends. This combination is not good for health and Rahu being in eighth house is usually not considered good as it indicates a sudden and violent death.

View I- Shankachood Kal SarpaYoga- When Rahu occupies the ninth house and Ketu is in the 3rd house this yoga operates. Natives who have this yoga in the chart have many ups and down in life. They have a habit of speaking lies. They are also short tempered.

View II -Shankhnaad Kal Sarpa Yoga - Rahu in ninth house, Ketu in third: This combination indicates problems from higher authorities, government of the day and local administration in the field of business and commerce.

View I- Ghatak Kal Sarpa Yoga- This yoga arises when Rahu is in tenth house and Ketu in the fourth house. Litigation problems are common is this case. Punishment by law or the Government also possible. However if this yoga operates in a beneficial manner then it has the power to confer the highest form of political power, especially in Virgo and Leo ascendant.

View II- Paatak Kal Sarpa Yoga - Rahu in tenth house, Ketu in fourth: Rahu being in tenth house indicates problem in employment and higher authorities whom the person would report to during his/her job.

View I -Vishdhar Kal Sarpa Yoga- When Rahu occupies the eleventh house and Ketu the fifth house the yoga which arises is the Vishdhar Kaalsarp Yoga. The native travels frequently and is never fixed at one place. Problems also arise from children. However these natives get some peace in the latter half of their life.

View II -Vishakt Kal Sarpa Yoga - Rahu in eleventh house, Ketu in fifth: This combination indicates a lot of problems between the person and his elder brother. The person would also remain away from his native place throughout his life. The person would be prone to problems like heart trouble, insomnia etc.

View I- Sheshnag Kal Sarpa Yoga- When Rahu occupies the twelfth house and Ketu the 6th house this yoga arises. The native has problems relating to litigation. There are many enemies and health problems.

View II- Sheshnag Kal Sarpa Yoga - Rahu in twelfth house, Ketu in sixth: The person would be prone to problems from people whom he does not know - mysterious enemies.

Remedies: (There is no data to substantiate these remedies that they will work)

View II

1. Pray to Lord Shiva in His Maharudra avatar on Mondays. Rudrashatakam written by Goswami Tulasidas in Ramacharit Manas should be chanted regularly.

2.Wear a gomed, about two and a half carets in size in the little finger.

3. Wear a special ring, shaped like a serpent with a small Gomed at the head and a Vaidurya (lahsuniya) at the tail. This ring is to be worn in the middle finger.

4. A pooja at Trayambkeshwara Temple about 40 kms from the city of Nasik in Maharashtra is suggested.

ViewIII- This gives descriptions about various planets if outside Rahu- Ketu axis, and there benefits and the important point is native with KSY and one planet outside meets with sudden and unexpected changes in his/her life.

Kal Amrita Yoga- best example is chart of India, taken from August 15, 1947, 12.00 AM, New Delhi, India.

There are other remedies, read them in Kal Sarpa Yoga-III

Kaal sarp yoga is created when all of the 7 planets come between Rahu and Ketu. If the all 7 planets are not come between Rahu and Ketu then this yog is known as aanshik kaal saro yoga.

shilpi said...

There are two types of kalasarpa doshas one with Rahu on top and another with ketu on top . If ketu on top and Rahu is down I'll is not that harmful But if Both are in ascendant and decendant places it is also not harmful If lagna is in between that is also not very harmful. Rahuketupooja in Kalahasti will remove the negative effects. see more - http://bit.ly/2gN3uEP
