Striking Principles and Precautions-Lal Kitab ( Red Book of Persia)

ॐ नमः शिवाय!

The author of Lal Kitab has enunciated such significant principles of astrology
that stand well tested today and as such they are of utmost importance in
our day to day life.Residential HousesNo temple with idols should be constructed even for individual worship in a residential house. However, keeping photos or drawings of deities on paper is not prohibited.

This is highly inauspicious for the natives born with Jupiter in 7th house.If there is a small dark room at the end of the house, where there is no passage for air or light, the same should be left as it is and no attempt should be made to facilitate natural light through opening windows etc. in that room; otherwise, misfortunes will strike the residents.
Places where ornaments or money is kept secretly must not be left empty. If there is nothing to be kept, please put some dry fruits there.There must necessarily be some non cemented place in a house. But if it is not feasible, the articles related to Venus must be installed and established there in.Safe Delivery and Longevity of Children•Worship of lord Ganesha is highly auspicious for children and property.•For safe delivery of children, a milk pot filled with milk and a sugar pot filled with sugar must be touched by the delivering mother and kept at some different place.
After the delivery both the pots should be offered to some temple and should not be brought back from there. Good effects will multiply if the quality of the pots is good.•If one’s children do not survive the native must distribute salty preparations in place of sweets, to celebrate the birth of the child.Alms and Charity•Digging of wells or providing drinking water facilities for public is strictly prohibited for those
with Moon in 6th house of the birth chart. Any violation of the above would invite utter destruction and extreme poverty.•Building of Dharmshalas (Free Dormitories), Sarais or inns is strictly prohibited for those having Saturn in 8th house.•Saturn in Lagna and Jupiter in 5th house cause death of children one after the other, if copper
coins are given in charity.•Jupiter in 10th and Moon in 4th cause false allegations and critical legal proceedings against the native if he builds temples or Gurudwaras.•Financial aid to widows and scholarships to poor children are strictly prohibited for those having Venus in 9th house.•Grave consequences would follow if a native with Moon in 12th house opens schools for free
education, or offers food to religious saints and Jogins .•Anyone having Jupiter in 7th house must not offer clothes to anyone in charity•Donations in the morning and evening hours by persons having Sun in 7th or 8th house of their horoscope will produce highly harmful and poisonous effects.AdoptionThe younger brother should never go for adoption of children of the elder brother. At the same time he should also not arrange the free marriage of the daughter of his elder brother.

These practices would certainly lead to disastrous consequences.Selection of Bridegrooms ( Depends on culture, it could be Brides also)•Saturn in 11th house makes the native desert his wife and children in young age, whereas Saturn in the grooms 2nd house proves inauspicious for the bride’s family.•Mercury and Rahu combining in houses 3, 8, 9, or 12 of the groom is also inauspicious for the
bride’s family.Venus and Ketu together in Lagna make the native impotent.•The groom is likely to be of bad sexual habits and may destroy his wealth in that, if the planetary positions are as follows :(a) Sun in 6th and Mars in 10th with the afflicted 12th house.
(b) Moon in Lagna and Jupiter in 11th house .
(c) Jupiter and Venus in 10th house.Universal Remedies •Sweet loaves of bread, specially baked in Tandoor, should be offered to animals every month for warding off sickness, quarrels and other troubles, caused by Mars negative in the horoscope.•Place a pot of water under the head side of the bed at night and pour it on a tree or plant in the morning.Taking meals in the kitchen is a strong safeguard against the mischiefs of Rahu.•From one’s own meal a Chapati or a piece of it must be offered to cows, crows and dogs for
all round well being and prosperity.Further, we all believe that going to a temple for offering prayer is always a good thing, which must be admired and encouraged. But according to Lal Kitab, the native having a malefic planet, especially Saturn in 8th house, when 2nd house is empty, must not visit temples or other places of worship, rather he should bow his head from outside.

Similarly, if planets occupying 6th, 8th and 12th houses are inimical to each other and 2nd house is not occupied by any planet, the native must avoid visiting temples and other religious places of worship.The most striking thing about Lal Kitab is that it enshrines due admiration for Vedic culture and philosophy of the Hindus.

Living in a joint family has been suggested as a powerful remedial measure and if for some reason this is not possible the native should sleep on the bed sheet which was used by his father.

In other cases the native has been asked to obtain the blessings of parents
and elders etc. as an amulet against the evil. It is worth pointing out that such simple and innocent remedies have worked wonders in tested cases.

There are many things in this book which have been observed through a most critical eye or most negative viewpoint, well one way it helps to see the worst scenario but in second way it increases the worries of a already worried soul, so people with little or no knowledge of Astrology should read and practise these remedies or suggestions with caution, most important is mental worries, control your worries and then proceed.

A stable mind and peaceful disposition of a person can handle any adversity, but on the contrary, if a person has a fickle mind and panic ridden soul, any small thing might effect him/her in a very grave way, so please follow precautions while checking your charts.

Any remedy should be observed for minimum 40 days or weeks, and observe for any changes in your mental, and physical health, your routine, your profession, your family relations, their health, etc. etc. once everything appears to be good then continue.

Ketu : Effects And Remedies- Lal Kitab ( Red Book of Persia)

ॐ नमः शिवाय!

Ketu, according to the author of Lal Kitab, represents son, grandson, ear, spine etc. 6th house is considered to be its ‘permanent house.’ It gives its exalted effect when in 5th, 9th or 12th house and its debilitated effect in 6th and 8th house. Dawn is its time and it represents Sunday.Ketu represents the opposite node of Ketu, in the tail of the serpent. Its colors are black and white. Venus and Rahu are its friends, whereas Moon and Mars are its enemies . Forty eight years is the age of Ketu. Ketu is also considered to be the bed. So the bed given by in-laws after marriage is considered to be auspicious for the birth of a son and as long as that bed is in the house, the effect of Ketu can never be inauspicious.Ketu in 1st House If Ketu is auspicious or benefic in this house, the native will be laborious, rich and happy, but will always be concerned and troubled because of his progeny. He may fear frequent transfers or travels, but ultimately it would always be postponed.

Whenever Ketu comes in 1st house in Varsha Kundli (Transit) there may be birth of a son or nephew. There may also be a long journey. The native with Ketu in 1st house will always be beneficial for his father and/or Guru and causes exaltation of Sun. If Ketu in 1st house is malefic, the native would suffer from headache. His wife would have health problems and would have worries concerning kids. If 2nd and 7th houses are empty then Mercury and Venus would also give bad results.

Rahu:Effects And Remedies-LalKitab-(Red Book of Persia)

ॐ नमः शिवाय!

Unlike other planets of the solar system Rahu and Ketu are not physical entities, substantial heavenly bodies, with shape or mass content. They are rightly termed as shadow planets, their movement is interrelated and as parts of one body they are at all times just opposite to each other. Greater significance has been attached to the role of Rahu in influencing human affairs in various dimensions, especially in Kaliyuga (The current era, 43,000,00 years).

The author of Lal Kitab describes Saturn as a serpent and Rahu and Ketu as its head and tail respectively. As a node of Moon, Rahu shall not provide adverse results so long as 4th house or Moon is not afflicted. He gives good results when Mars occupies houses 3 and 12, or when Sun and Mercury are in house 3, or when he himself is posited in 4th house.
Rahu further provides good results if placed together with Mercury or aspected by him.
Rahu offers highly beneficial effects if placed in houses earlier than Saturn, but if it is otherwise, Saturn becomes stronger and Rahu acts as his agent.

Sun provides very good results when Rahu is aspected by Saturn, but Rahu gives the effects of a debilitated planet when Saturn is aspected by Rahu. 

Rahu gets exalted in houses 3 and 6, whereas he gets debilitated in houses 8, 9 and 11.
12th house is his ‘permanent house’ and he proves highly auspicious in houses 3, 4 and 6.
Saturn, Mercury and Ketu are his friends, whereas Sun, Mars and Venus are his enemies. Jupiter and Moon are neutral to him.If Sun and Venus are placed together in a horoscope, Rahu will generally provide adverse results. Similarly, Rahu will provide bad results if Saturn and Sun are also combined in a horoscope.

Here Mars will also become Mars negative. If Ketu is placed in houses earlier than Rahu, Rahu will provide adverse results, whereas Ketu effect would be zeroed.

Rahu in 1st House 1st house is influenced by Mars and Sun, which is like a throne. The planet in 1st house is considered to be the king of all planets. The native will achieve a position higher than indicated by his qualification and will obtain good results from government. Rahu in this house would give the result of exalted Sun, but it will spoil the fruits of the house in which Sun is placed. If Mars, Saturn and Ketu are weak only then Rahu would give bad results, otherwise it will give good results in 1st house.

Saturn : Effects And Remedies- Lal Kitab ( Red Book of persia)

ॐ नमः शिवाय!

As the slowest moving planet and the chief significator for longevity, Saturn is a
barren, binding, cold, dry, hard, defensive and secretive planet. Its effects and
influences are felt with greater intensity and for longer periods than any other
planet. Saturn is considered to be very favorable for people born in the signs
owned by Venus, whereas Saturn is evil to those born in the signs owned by Mercury.The astrological thesis of Lal Kitab describes Saturn as a serpent, whose head or mouth is Rahu and Ketu is its tail. If Ketu is posited in earlier houses than Saturn, the latter becomes a great benefic for the native. However, if the position is otherwise, the Saturn throws highest poisonous results on the native. Further, Saturn never gives malefic effects if posited in houses of Jupiter i.e. 2, 5, 9 or 12, whereas Jupiter provides bad results if posited in the house of Saturn.Saturn is considered good in houses 2nd , 3rd and 7th to 12th, whereas 1st, 4th, 5th and 6th houses are bad for Saturn. Sun, Moon and Mars are its enemies, Venus, Mercury and Rahu are friends and Jupiter and Ketu are neutral to it. Saturn gets exalted in 7th house and the 1st house is the house of its debilitation.

Venus and Jupiter placed together act like Saturn in that house. Similarly Mars and
Mercury placed in a single house act like Saturn in that house. In the former case Saturn behaves like Ketu, while in the latter case it behaves like Rahu. Venus gets destroyed if Saturn is being aspected by the Sun in any horoscope. The aspect of Venus on Saturn causes loss of money and wealth, but the aspect of Saturn on Venus proves highly beneficial.Collision of Saturn and Moon causes operation of the eyes of the native. Saturn gives good
results if posited in house earlier than Sun.Saturn can never give malefic results if posited with Sun or Jupiter in a single house, but highly adverse results would follow if posited with Moon or Mars in any house. Saturn releases its poisonous results on the sign and Mars, if it is posited in 1st house, on Mars only if posited in 3rd house, on Moon if posited in 4th house, on Sun if posited in 5th house, and on Mars in posited in 3rd house. Saturn in 3rd house deprives the native of the accumulation of cash money and kills the children of the native when posited in 5th house and 10th house is empty. It becomes highly benefic in 12th house if friendly planets are posited in 2nd house. Saturn provides very good results if placed in houses 1 to 7 on the condition that 10th house is empty. Saturn in 1st house and Sun in 7th, 10th or 11th houses causes all sorts of troubles for native’s wife. Combination of Mars and Saturn gives adverse results al through.Saturn in Ist House1st house is influenced by Sun and Mars. Saturn in 1st house will give good results only when 3rd, 7th or 10th houses are not inhabited by any planet which is inimical to Saturn. If Mercury or Venus, Rahu or Ketu is in 7th house, Saturn will always give good results . In case Saturn is malefic and the native has a hairy body, the native will remain poor. If native celebrates his birthday it will give very bad results However the native will have a long life.Remedies1 Abstinence from alcohol and non-vegetarian meals.
