Rahu kalam - what is this , how to calculate it - explained by Nirban

RAHU KALAM..
inauspicious periods and one should not undertake any 
auspicious work during these periods – especially any 
new undertaking....
Sunday 8th period...
Monday 2nd period..
Tuesday 7th period..
Wednesday 5th period..
Thursday 6th period..
Friday 4th period..
Saturday 3rd period..

But it differs from place to place.. 
because it depends in sunrise and sunset..
and that too differs when place changes..

Now lets calculate Rahu Kalam..
Sunrise in 6:00 AM and sunset 6:00 PM..
calculation is simple..
time difference 12 hours..
12 X 60 = 720 minutes..
720 / 8 = 90 min every part of the day..
1st part = 6:00 AM to 7:30 AM
2nd part = 7:30 AM to 9:00 AM
.....
8th part = 4:30 PM to 6:00 PM

If the day is sunday then 8th part..
i.e. 4:30 PM to 6:00 PM

if the day is tuesday then..
3:00 PM to 4:30 PM

let me know if anyone cannot understand this.

PLANETARY AVASTHAS - PART 1 - written by Nirbanjyoti Das

Today , I am going to tell you the details of planetary avasthas through which calculations you will be able to understand which planet could be said powerful or which planet could be said powerless.

In Jyotish planetary avastha or graha avastha is divided by five catagoriees and they are following - 

Baladi Avasthas - Set of 5 avasthas and they are - bala , kumara , yuva , vriddha and mitra 

Jagradadi Avasthas - Set of 3 avasthas and they are - jagrata  , swapna and susupti 

Lajjitadi Avasthas - Set of 6 avasthas and they are lajjita , garvita , ksudhita , trsita , mudita and kshobhita

Deeptadi Avasthas - Set of 9 avasthas and they are - dipta , svastha , mudita , santa , dina , dukhita , vikala , khala and kopa 

Sayanadi Avasthas - Set of 12 avasthas and they are Sayana , upavesana , netrapani , prakasa , gaman , aagamana , sabhaa , aagama , bhojana , nritya lipsaaa , kautuka and nidra 


lets study them one by one.

------------------------BALADI AVASTHAS --------------------------------
In case of odd rasis - 
 0 deg. to 6 deg. - bala
6 deg. to 12 deg. - kumara
12 deg. to 18 deg.- yuva
18 deg. to 24 deg. - vriddha
24 deg. to 30 deg. - mrita

In case of even rasi -
 0 deg. to 6 deg. - mrita
6 deg. to 12 deg. - vriddha
12 deg. to 18 deg.- yuva
18 deg. to 24 deg. - kumara
24 deg. to 30 deg. - bala 

Now, again odd rasis are - Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagitarius, Aquarius
and even rasis are - Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, capricorn and pisces


------------------------JAGRADADI AVASTHAS---------------------
 Jagrata - In own rasi or exaltation
Swapna - In rasi of a friend or neutral

Susupti - In enemy’s rasi or debilitation

-------------------------LAJJITADI AVASTHAS----------------------
Lajjita - When planets are in putra bhab or 5th house with rahu , ketu or  sani .

Garvita - When planets are in exaltation or multrikono.

Ksudhita - In an enemy’s rasi or yuti with an enemy, or receives a drishti from an enemy, or even if a planet is yuti with Saturn.

Krsita - When planets are in watery sign, not receiving dristi form any beneffic but aspecting malefic 

Mudita - When planets are associated or aspected by friendly planets or aspected by functional beneffic planets , yogakaraka planets etc

Kshobhita - Yuti with sun or aspected by sun or associated with maleffic and no beneffic dristi 

------------------------------DEEPTADI AVASTHAS----------------------

Dipta - When planets is in its exaltation rasi

Svastha - When a planet is in own rasi

Mudita - When a planet is in great friend rasi

Santa - When a planet is in friendly rasi

Dina - When a planet is in netrual rasi

Dukhita - When a planet is in enemy rasi

Vikala - When a planet is associated with maleffic planet

Khala - When a planet is in great enemy rasi

Kopa - When a planet is closely combusted


-----------------------------SAYANADI AVASTHAS-------------------------

Sayanadi avastha is the most complicated method to study always. There is a mathematical calculation we should know before we know the effects of sayanadi avastha of planets. Which I am discussing below.

1ST STEP :- 
‘C’ - Nakshatra number occupied by the planet (1 for aswini, 2 for bharani etc.)

‘P’ - Planet whose avastha we have to calculate (1 for Sun, 2 for Moon, 3 for Mars, 4 for Mercury, 5 for Jupiter, 6 for Venus and 7 for Saturn).

‘A’ - Index of the Navamsa occupied by the planet in rasi.

‘M’ - Constellation occupied by Moon.

‘G’ - Ghati running at birth.

‘L’ - Rasi occupied by Lagna (1 for Aries, 2 for Taurus) and so on).

2ND STEP :- 
Compute (C x P x A) + M + G + L and then divide it by 12 and take the remainder. Using the resulting number as the avastha index and referring to table given above, we find out the avastha of the planet.
When reminder is -

1 - Sayana
2  - Upavesana
3 - Netrapani
4 - Prakasa
5 - Gaman
6 - Aagamana
7 - Sabhaa
8 - Aagama
9 - Bhojana
10 - Nritya Lipsaaa
11 - Kautuka
0 - Nidra


3RD STEP :-
We have to add a planetary
adjustment to the remainder. We use 5 for Sun and Jupiter, 2 for Moon and Mars, 3 for Mercury, Venus and Saturn and 4 for Rahu and Ketu. We divide the sum by 3 and take the remainder. This gives the strength of the activity.

A value of 1 means “drishti” and medium results.
A value of 2 means “cheshta” and full results.
A value of 3 or 0 means “vicheshta” and gives very little results.

Let me know if you have any questions. Kindly comment in the comment box with exact planetary positions.  Without planetary position chart I will not give any answer.

We will study a birth chart as example for better understanding.

Thank you,
Nirban Jyoti Das

      Find Your Ishta Devta and other Devetas form Your chart

      Today we will learn how do you find the following devetas in your chart  and they are following - 

      Ishta Deveta - Your own deity, that you worship for.

      Dharma Deveta - The Dharma deveta is one who will guide you to attain ideals and objects of dharma or who will tell you what is code of conduct and how to maintain it. 

      Kula Devta - This is the deveta who will bless your family lineage. It is also called family deity. This deity must be worshipped by all family member. 

      Grama Devta - This the Deveta who bless a village or some massive ownership of lands/ property like Zamindars. 

      Sthana Devta - Who blesses a large place bigger than village. Ownership of large lands etc

      Guru Devta - Who will guides you in terms of higher learning. 

      Palan Devta - Who will bless native will good financial status etc.

      Now, lets see how we could define all the devtas form a chart.

      Ishta Devta - 1st of all find put Atmakaraka planet in your rasi chart( See Atmakaraka section) and then look where the atmakaraka planet is placed in navamsa. The house where Atmakaraka of rasi chart is placed is called Karakamsa. Now count 12th house form Karakamsa. This house is called Jivanmuktamsa. now see which planet is placed in this house. The deity related that planet will be your Ista devta . If multiple planet is placed in Jivanmuktamsa then see who is stronger. Use planetary Avasta section to figure out who is strong on that chart. If no planet on Jivanmuktamsa then see who aspects  Jivanmuktamsa . If multiple planets is aspecting Jivanmuktamsa then see who is strongger. If no planet is aspecting then see disposition of Jivanmuktamsa  from Karakamsa. Consider Jivanmuktamsa lord as your Ishta devta.

      Kula Devta - Now, this way analyse 2nd house D20 or Vimsamsa chart. Find strongest planet if multiple planets are placed there. If no planet in Vimsamsa 2nd house then see who aspects it. If multiple planet is aspects then see who aspects is strongest. If no planet is placed and no aspect is there then consider 2nd lord of Vimsamsa lord as Kula devta.

      Dharma Devta - Thus, anlyze the 9th house form Karakamsa in navamsa chart or D9 and figure out your Dharma devta.

      Grama Devta - 4th house of D20 or Vimsamsa will decide your Gram Devta.

      Sthana Devta - Same as Grama Devta , 4th house of D20 or Vimsamsa will decide your Gram Sthana Devta.

      Guru Devta - Fugure out the Bhatru Karaka planet( The planet who is your 1st highest planet in rasi chart) in your rasi chart and then see the position of Bhatru Karaka planet in navamsa chart and that planet aspecting your Bhatru Karaka planet will decide your Guru Devta.

      Palan Devta - figure out Amatya Karaka (AmK - The planet lord who is 2nd highest degree in D1 Rasi). Then find this AmK disposition in D9 Navamsa. From AmK, planets in 6th house indicate Palan Devta.

      Now, once you figure out the planet, worship who will be your deity. The deity of devtas are following - 

      Sun— Vishnu/Rama/Shiva
      Moon— Krishna/Shiva/Parvati
      Mars— Hanuman/Subramanya/Sri Narasimha
      Mer—  Vishnu
      Jup—  Vishnu/Sri Vamana/Dattatreya/Sai Baba
      Ven—  Maha Lakshmi/Parashurama/Maa Gouri
      Sat—  Shani Dev/Hanuman/Kurma/Shiva/Vishnu
      Rahu—Maa Durga/Varaha
      Ketu— Ganesh/Matasya
      Ascendent— Kalki

      let me know if you have any ques.

      Put your data Here if you want to know your devtas.

      Understaning Ashtakvarga table with Vedic astrology

      Just see the above at(ashtakvarga) table and could you guess something ?

      yes, Transits..

      While you are looking for transit results of planets( I see it form moon/ chandra) and planets in followings houses are called favourable as per classics  - 
      Sun in 3 – 6 – 10 – 11 houses,
      Moon in 1 – 3 – 6 – 7 – 11 houses,
      Mars in 3 – 6 – 11 houses,
      Mercury in 2 – 4 – 6 – 8 – 10 – 11 houses,
      Jupiter in 2 – 5 – 7 – 9 – 11 houses,
      Venus in 1 – 2 – 3 – 4 – 5 – 8 – 9 – 11 – 12 houses,
      Saturn in 3 – 6 – 11 houses,

      Rahu and Ketu in 3 – 6 – 11 houses.

      But the question is how much a planet in a house could be effective ? how much power it can give effect( No matter it is for good or bad/ beneffic or maleffic) . That would be decided by ashtakvarga. Nevermind, ashtakvarga is not that easy. Sanjay Rath ji have written a whole book on ashtakvarga. I am telling you 1% of ashtakvarga here. The more value of ashtakvarga means more effective that planet will be in that house. Like in above table mars in 4th house have 7 point means mars will give highest effect in 4th house. It is said mars is said 95% effect if value is 7. If value becomes lower than 7 the effectiveness of that planet in that house will decrease proportionately . value 1 and 2 is considerred no effect

      Many of you still did not understand how to read this ashtakvarga table. Well, one of my friend send this to me and asked me to elaborated an ashtakvarga table with his chart. So, I picked his chart and explaining all the rules here now. 

      lets read them one by one here -

      1st house - 25
      2nd house - 28
      3rd house - 33
      4th house - 29
      5th house - 26
      6th house - 24
      7th house - 35
      8th house - 35
      9th house - 26
      10th house - 27
      11th house - 22
      12th house  -  27
      -------------------------
      Total value - 337

      ---Add points of all house and see it is 337 . 25+28+33+29+26+24+35+35+26+27+22+27 = 337 this value is distributed in all 12 houses.

      ---Divide 337 / 12 = 28 average. means less than 28 is bad and more than 28 is good. falling that 1/5/6/9/10/11/12th house have poor value and other houses have good value. Simply to say , they are strong. 2nd house have 28 value not good not bad. 7th and 8th house have 35 value and it is good.

      ---Less than 25 points is pretty bad i.e. 9th house( value 9) and 11th house(value 22) .

      --- value of 1st/9th/10th/11th house all have less than 30 so, again this indicate negative.

      ---lagna and 4th house as well both have less than 30 value.

      ---value of 1st house is 25 means native will have real rise in life after 25 years of age.

      ---value of 2nd house is 28 which is great than value if 12th house i.e. 27 this indicates native will not waste his earning/ wealth.

      ---Value of 11th house is 22 and value if 12th house is more than value of 11th house i.e. 27 and this indicates savings will not stay natives hand ultimately.

      --- Value of lagna + 2nd house + 4th house + 9th house + 10th house + 11th house = 157( It should be at least 164 for good) and adding value of 6th house + 8th house + 12th house = 86 and it is good( more than 76 is good)

      ---If lagna less more value than 7th house ( here L. = 25 and 7th house = 35) means native will be dominated by spouse and native will choose spouse path of life.

      ---6th house have more value means native will be hard working here value is just 24 means not hardworking native

      ---lagna + 4 +5 + 7 + 9 + 10 houses is called inner self. value of inner self is 168 and value of 2 + 3 + 6 + 8 + 11 + 12 houses is - 160 here .As per classics ' if it is inner self, then native will make money and become wealthy by his good deeds, learning, knowledgeable and charitable. If outer self is stronger, then native, is greedy, deceitful, worried man and do cheating.'--- Now you decide.

      ---Value of 10th house is 27 and value of 11th house is 22 means native will have to work hard but return will be less than what work done. This means - if native works for 80% in mathematics exam native will get 60% marks.

      ---Jupiter have 5th house have 5 point and jupiter give beneffic result in 5th house it will provide that results.

      ---Moon sign(I dont know) of the couple should have more than 28 point in each other horoscope to have happy married life.

      ---Now, 
      1) 1 + 5 + 9 house is called BANDHU( value in this AT table - 77)
      2) 2 + 6 + 10 houses is called SEVAKA( value in this AT table - 79)
      3) 3 + 7 + 11 houses is called POSHAKA ( value in this AT table - 90)
      4) 4 + 8 + 12 houses are called GHATAKA( value in this AT table - 91)

      BANDHU:  if this group has more points than the others, then native will be wealthy, doing right Karma, charitable.
      SEVAKA:  native may be doing job, service, or money minded.
      POSHAKA:  may be indursitest or factory owner or employer
      SEVAKA:  native may be poor, beggar.

      ---8th house have highest value i.e. 35 and native goes 8th house related matters he should be successful

      Ashtakvarga calculations are not easy, it needs more than 2 hours for every chart.Due to rise of computer programms one can easily figure out the ashtakvarga table for a chart. I will tell you those in future posts.

      Readers are requested to put there ashtakvarga table here so that I can assist them with proper calculations.

      Thank You,

      Gulika according to Vedic astrology

      While King Ravana tried to put all planets in 11th house, he blocked them in a chamber and kept them in 11th house in his sons house but saturn did not listen this block , only Sani spread ed his leg in 12th house. 

      The Maandi is the son of Saturn, Maandi = Manda = Son of saturn. Just Rahu and ketu,  who dont have physical presense in planetary family Gulika/ Maandi is the same. They work as imiginary point, Upagraha, a satellite, that is related to Saturn. One of my friend told me( He is form Kerala) and they uses a lot regarding these Gulika/Maandi matters specially in prasanna , Horary and picking Muhurta. Many too believes these are the darker sides of Jyotish.

      The reference to certain invisible satellites in the Jyothisha Phala Bhagam are Kala, Paridhi, Dhuna, Ardhaprahara, Yamakandaka, Indrachapa, Maandi, Vruthipatha and Upakethu. Besides, Ushnashikha, Vishti and Ekargalam are also considered during result-oriented periods.

      Lets see how we could we calculate the Gulika /maandi . Due to rise of softwares, one can easily figure it out form software like - J. Hora etc. But we should know the calculation.

      CALCULATIONS OF GULIKA:
      step-1 : 1st of all collect the sunrise and sunset time of a day.
      step-2 : Devide the whole time into eight parts i.e. devide by 8

      Step-3 : 8th portion of everyday is lordless. Rest form 1st to 7th portion have lords and that is given to 7 planets( No rahu and ketu) i.e. Sun , Moon , Mars , Mercury , Jupiter , Venus & saturn

      So, we get the following - 
      1. the eighth portion is Lord-less,
      2. while Shani's portion is Gulika.
      3. Surya's portion is Kaala,
      4. Mangala's portion is Mrityu,
      5. Guru's portion is Yamaghantaka
      6. and Budha's portion is Ardhaprahara.
      Now, Gulika position will be 7th part of Sunday , 6th part of Monday , 5th part of Tuesday , 4th part of Wednesday , 3rd part of Thursday , 2nd Part of Friday and 1st Part of Saturday.

      EXAMPLE 1:
      date - 2rd August, 2018
      Place - Grafton , Australia
      Tithi - Thurseday
      Sunrise - 5:45:41 am
      Sunset - 7:59:43 am

      Time difference(Ignoring seconds) - 14 hours 14 min = {(14 X 60) + 14 } min = 854 min 
      Now each part will be - (854 / 8) min = 106.75 min = 106 min 45 sec = 1 hour 46 min 45 sec  ~ 1 hour 46 min
      Now the day was Thursday
      so, 3rd part of Thursday will be - { 5:45(sunrise) + 5:18(total sum of 2 parts 1 hour 46 min)} = 9 hours 17 min

      Gulika time will start form 9:17 AM in morning to 11:03 AM. This time frame is called Gulika of that day. This time frame is not auspicious. use software for perfect timeframe.

      Now, as you can see gulika depend on places so sunset and sunrise will be different form place to place. So, Gulika in Mumbai or San Francisco will be different. 

      EXAMPLE 2:
      9th May, 1975
      native born in 9:45 Am calcutta , India
      Lagna - 2 degree 11 min 11.61 sec cancer
      Tithi - Krishna Triyodosi 
      nakshtra - Revati 
      Var - Friday
      Sunrise - 5:03 am
      Sunset - 6:02 pm

      Ignoring seconds, time difference is - 12 hours 59 minutes
      each part - (12 hours 59 min / 8) = 1 hour 37 minutes
      Now , the day was Friday so 2nd part of Friday will be Gulika rasi

      So, Sunrise + 1 hour 37 min i.e. 6 hour 40 min in morning which is at 21 degree of Taurus rasi. 

      So, native born in in 9th may , 1975 9:45 am place calcutta, West bengal , India will have Gulika in around 21 degree taurus rasi. If you use computer programms you will get more accurate placements.


      Read Phaldeepika for what happens when Gulika in different houses.

      Bhrigu Bindu - What are the functions and how will you calculate it


      ****************Bhrigu Bindu & its importance *************
      In Jyotish the concept/ idea / uses of Brigu Bindu or Karma Bindu or Destiny Point is huge. Transitions or aspect of planets in Brigu Bindu matters most predicting events of life. Planetary transit over brigu bindu is more effective & important than aspect. If beneffic planet like Jupiter aspects on BB (Bhrigu Bindu) then some goals of life like – marriage , purchasing property etc will happen. BB are your karmic cycle which must perform before you die. Which is your karmic baggage. The Placement of BB in different house form lagna also indicates some special karmic goals of life which I will discuss later. 

      We could calculate the BB for any divisional charts. But the BB of rasi chart and navamsa matters most.

      While calculating BB, You need to have exact longitude of Rahu & moon. Now find out how much distence moon travelled form Rahu. Basically BB is the middle point of rahu and moon. Let me help you with a simple example.

      **************EXAMPLE 1*************
      Rahu – 25 degree of capricorn
      Moon – 13 degree of scorpio

      Now calculate how much degree moon travelled from rahu. And that is 288 degree. Now devide 288 by 2 and that is 144 degree. Now count 144 degree form 25 degree of capricorn and that will be 19 degree of Gemini . This 19 degree of Gemini will be your Brigu Bindu.

      ********EXAMPLE 2(Live chart) ********
      Native is Pisces lagna..
      Moon – 7 deg. 1 min in Taurus ( 3 deg. Pisces navamsa )
      Rahu – 13 deg. 14 min of Capricorn ( 29 deg. Of capricorn navamsa )

      Now calculate the distence how far moon gone form Rahu devide by 2 . The middle point of distence travelled by Moon form rahu stands at 25 deg. Of pisces. Native got marriade in April 27 , 2018. Native was running rahu + ketu dosa.

      The  same way the BB of Navamsa stands somewhere at 16 deg. Of Aquarius. As per transits Jupiter was aspecting her BB of Navamsa  despite native was running unfavourable dosa for marriage. ( I have attched the planetary positions of D1 and D9 here) . Though there were other conditions which also proved marriage timing at that time.

      Planetary positions of d1 chart

      D9 chart of the native


      Apart than the Jupiter, every planet passes / aspects BB will indicate something as well. In trasit , Every time every planet while passing Brigu Bindu will indicate some gain or loss in life. Beneffic planet will incate and maleffic planet like ketu/ saturn indicate maleffic or loss.  They are being written following –

      Saturn , ketu – Indicates havy loss or money , property , divorce , car acidents , snake bites etc

      Jupiter – New relationships , new job , job promotion/transfer which was pending for long time and specially some best goals of life  like – marriage  , new property.

      For Sun , mercury , venus they are fast moving planet and touches BB one or miltiple times a year so does not hold significant value.

      Let me know if anyone have any questions on this.

      Share your view and knowledge on it.

      NAVATARA CHAKRA - HOW YOU WILL CALCULATE USES OF IT

      Nava means nine or 9 and tara means Nakshatra. The circle of 9 starts out of 27 Nakshatra is called Navatara chakra.

      The Nine Nakshatra would be following - (1) Janma (2) Sampat (3) Vipata (4) Ksema (5) Pratyari (6) Sadhaka (7) Vadha (8) Mitra and (9) Atimitra.

      *********HOW WE WILL CALCULATE THESE*********
      EXAMPLE - 1 :
      Suppose you are born on Ashwini Nakshatra, Ashwini will be the starting point of the nakshatra tara chakra and the nakshatras will be termed as below with reference to Ashwini :-

      Ashwini, Magha, Moola – Janma
      Bharni, Purva-phalguni, Purva-shada – Sampat
      Krittika, Uttara-phalguni, Uttara-shada – Vipat
      Rohini, Hasta, Shravan – Kshema
      Mrigshira, Chitra, Dhanistha – Pratyari
      Ardra, Swati, Satabhisha -Sadhak
      Punarvasu, Vishakha, Purva-bhadrapada – Vadha
      Pushya, Anuradha, Uttara-bhadrapada – Mitra
      Ashlesha – Ati-mitra

      So, we can say the followng formula,
      1st nakshatra is your Janma nakshatra..
      10th and 19th nakshatra are your janma nakshatras..
      2 , 11  & 20th nakshtras will be your Sampat nakshatras..
      3 , 12 & 21th nakshatra will be your Vipat nakshatras..
      4 , 13 & 22th nakshatra will be our Kshema nakshatras..
      5 , 14 & 23th nakshatra will be your Pratyari nakshatras..
      6 , 15 & 24th nakshatra will be your Sadhak Nakshatras..
      7, 16 & 25th nakshatra will be your Vadha nakshatras..
      8 , 17 & 26th nakshatra will be your Mitra nakshatras..
      9 , 18 & 27th nakshatra will be your Ati mitra nakshatras..

      you can now calculate your results, find your star of your moon and calculate Navatara chakras...

      WHY WE SHOULD USE NAVATARA CHAKRA ?

      Houses and Family Members in Your circle of 360

      MANY OF YOU ASKING WHICH HOUSE STANDS FOR WHICH FAMILY MEMBERS. HERE IS ONE FOR YOU TO KNOW THE 360 HOUSES AND FAMILY MEMBERS -

      -1st house is represents you. It also indicates mother's father(10th form 4) ,father's mother,

      -2nd house represents your family( self created family). Your wife kids as a whole , 2nd child's spouse.

      -3rd house is your brothers and sisters

      -4th house is your mother. Therefore, 10th house represents your father(father is the husband of your mother so 7th form 4 i.e. 10th) , childhood friends.

      -5th house is your children. Actually 1st child . And also girl-friends( To boys) and Boyfriends(To girls).

      -6th house is your office colleagues , servants and relationships with them.

      -7th house is your wife , 2nd children , grandmother( mother's mother) , grandfather( father's father)

      -8th house is other than spouse family members i.e. in-laws etc. 8th house is 2nd form 7th so, strong it says spouse parents and your family in the eye of spouse. Means, spouse self created family is 8th house and your self created family is 2nd house. However , practically both are the same.

      -9th house indicates 3rd child , 2nd spouse( 3rd form 7th because 2nd wife is sister of 1st) , teacher , guru

      -10th house is your father.

      -11th house is your 4th child, 1st child's spouse( 7th form 5th) , adulthood friends

      -12th house is uncle( father's brother because 3rd form 10th) and sometimes mother's father

      SOME OTHER POINTS :
      -Your 5th house represents your 1st child , your wife's 1st child is her 5th house( It is child of you as well) means 5th form 7 i.e. 11th house of yours.

      -There is some controversy of father - some says form 9th some form 10th. I consider it form 10th because father is mother's spouse i.e. 7th form 4.

      -2nd spouse and 3rd spouse are called 'douhitro' or sister of 1st one so, they come form 9th and 11th respectively.
      -some see 2nd and other wives all form 2nd house.

      -3rd house is actually for 1st younger brother, 7th house is 2nd younger brother , 9th house is 3rd younger brother respectively.
