The article is a reflection of my own thoughts based on my research and studies on Astrology

The birth chart depicts the planetary position that is placed across the twelve houses of the kundali. The principal of astrology says that if these planets are placed at their highest level in the chart then they are inclined to produce benevolent results to the person. All the planets: Surya (Sun), Chandra (Moon), Rahu (Rahu), Guru (Jupiter), Budh (Mercury), Shani (Saturn), Ketu (Ketu), Mangal (Mars), Shukra (Venus)if placed in the birth chart at their highest level then, they will reap all their benevolent features or results. Now, the question arises: Do these planets, with their benevolent features always deliver prolific results to a person? Many learned astrologers may agree that this Birth Chart is a complete chart where all the planets are occupying their favourable positions and therefore are benevolent from every aspect and shall in all the possible situations will provide all the worldly pleasures in a lifetime to a person concerned. In other words, a person born with this birth chart shall be prosperous and winning in all his endeavours of life without any fear of losing anything in life. 

However, placement of planets in any birth chart at their highest level along with the favourable numbers does not guarantee that it is a complete birth chart with all the positivity in it (as per the science of astrology). Amongst the many fundamentals of astrology, one underlying fundamental is, that the mutual animosity and mutual eye contact (direct sight contact) or drishti sambandh between the planets are actually responsible for the outcomes of good or bad consequences in any birth chart. 

On first sight, this birth chart may appear as a perfect one, giving all happiness and prosperity but if studied carefully this chart may reveal some basic faults based on drishti sambandh (mutual direct eye contact among two planets) in diagonally and vertical and horizontal fashion.

Basis on my own calculations and research, this birth chart may not deliver the prolific results as it was supposed to deliver at the first sight. This is due to the fact that in this chart, the planets along with their benevolent positions are making a malefic direct eye contact with their opposite or enemy planet and as a consequence is reducing all the major prolific results that could be generated from the basic planetary positions with their highest placement in the chart.

Let me explain this in an explicit manner: for example, the planet Shukra (Venus) : It is a planet that is responsible for providing all worldly pleasures like love, luxury, good company, fame and name and all other pleasures of a comfortable life. The power of shukra is at its highest point when it is placed at the 12th house in the chart. Now, in the chart presented above, Shukra/Venus is placed at 12^th house. Any astrologer can conclude out of this placement that Shukra is very good and will provide all the benevolent results. But, my observation says that however, it is positioned at 12^th house it is still being targeted by its enemy planet Budh (Mercury). 

Please note that, the direct eye contact in a birth chart is made at the 7^th point from the respective planet. If you count seven starting from Shukra(Venus) you will see that Budh(Mercury) is facing Shukra(Venus) and is establishing a direct eye contact. 

Mercury is foe to Jupiter in astrology and therefore it creates hell lot of disturbances for Shukra to work as per its basic nature. Therefore, in this chart even after the perfect placement of Shukra at 12^th house, the direct eye contact of budh is considered as a major flaw in this birth chart or kundali will therefore reverse or will belittle the luxurious pleasures borne out of Shukra.               

Going forward, in the same way if you look at the birth chart, Sun and Shani(Saturn) are positioned at their highest levels ( Sun is at its high level in the 1^st house with number 1 and Shani (Saturn) is at its highest level at 7^th house with number 7). An amateur astrologer will again consider this chart as an exemplary one establishing the fact that this is yet again another perfect placement of planets. Although this is a true comprehension but at the same time this placement of Sun and Shani(Saturn) is creating extreme adverse circumstances in the chart that will reduce the good outcomes of both these planets. What I am trying to exert is: that, Sun and Shani (Saturn) are considered as Father and Son. Sun is the Father of Shani . Both Mythological and Astrologically these planets are basically enemies of each other. Whenever you will see these two planets in any kundali or a birth chart facing each other or to the worst of all, placed together in the same house in the chart then this conjunction of these two planets confirms only destruction to the person. It will never reap good results even if both the planets are placed with their highest position (or Ucch ke grah).

In order to understand whether any planet will give you good or bad result: you can easily calculate this by looking at the chart and which planet is being faced by what planet or are any planets that share animosity among themselves are placed together in one house? I always believe that if any two planets are friends by nature then their direct eye contact will always create prolific results and if any two planets who share hatred will do the opposite. Whether the placement of planets at their highest level or with their favourable zodiac signs will always give positive results, creates doubt for me. I firmly believe that direct eye contact of enemy planets even after being seated with their respective highest level in the respective houses and with favourable zodiac signs would still somehow create disturbances and shall generate adverse results.  

The placement of planets with their favourable zodiac signs along with highest position in a birth chart can never be the only basis of Indian Astrology. In other words, these can never be the only possible conditions basis on which the Indian Astrology can function and can promise the exact outcomes.

Under the circumstances, where all the planets are placed at their highest levels along with their favourable zodiac signs or are placed at lowest levels along with their unfavourable zodiac signs and are looked upon directly by enemy planets: the best way to predict the possible outcomes is to consider the third power. The power who governs every good, bad and ugly events of the Universe. It is extremely important to consider that the third power plays a vital role in every creation, sustenance and destruction of the Universe. When we are talking about the Universe, it becomes obvious that planets are also being considered here. 

Therefore, the functioning of these planets and the impact that they will create by their movements on to the human lives is all depended on the mercy of the third power. I firmly believe that without the mercy of God or the third power, the existence of astrology is nothing but a fade. Without his mercy even the planets with all their favourable positions in the birth chart will have no existence since, they are being governed and controlled by the God and therefore praising God before these planets is with no exemption a blessing that a person seeks from God. Only on the mercy of the third power all the evils created by the planets can be avoided from lives and can shower his grace to flourish with all the virtuosity of planets.

Note:

For Astrology to succeed in all its predictions, it is utmost important to seek mercy of God. Without his mercy and grace, no astrology can flourish or can give appropriate predictions. Bookish knowledge of astrology can give only minimal or no results, it can just explain you why certain circumstances are happening in your life but shall not give you solutions to overcome the adversities. Anyways, Astrology is also followed by only those who believe in the power of God, who are God fearing.     

Future Prediction:

In today’s date, Shani (Saturn) came in the zodiac sign of Mars (Mangal) In this zodiac, Shani will remain for the coming 2.5 years .During this time, Shani will create direct eye contact with other planets on several occasions. Whenever it will create direct eye contact it will produce according results. Since, Shani is in the Zodiac sign of Vrischik which is basically Mangal’s sign (Mars) or in other words, Mangal (Mars) governs Vrischik sign. 

Therefore, as per my knowledge, I am sure that Shani will produce results related to the Earth, or anything results beneath the Earth. It will greatly impact everything which is related to Earth or a produce of Earth. For Example, Crude Oil, Gold and other Minerals. To add to this, natural calamities like Earthquake, Tsunami, Volcano eruption will be experience in some parts of the world especially during these 2.5 years of time. Very recently, the world has witnessed the disaster of Nepal that was caused by Earthquake. This can be seen as a result of Shani's (Saturn's) current position. 

The prices of Crude Oil, Gold and other minerals will be adversely affected during this phase. As one can notice that, the prices have already started rising.Specifically after April 9, 2015 the period of recession will start. From April 9, 2015, Planet Guru (Jupiter) is going will become progressive after spending a long period of retrospect from December 8, 2014. As a result of Guru’s retrospect period from December 8, 2015 the prices of Crude Oil and Gold was going down but, from April 9, 2015 onwards, the world will see a sharp increase on the prices and a period of recession.  

LUCKY BABA...!!
