Part (A)
(1.1)
This is the most important but
lesser used chart today in Vedic astrology. This is the only chart described in
classical Vedic astrology which is not regular in order in addition to Hora
chart. It is cast in a very different way.
(1.2)
If anyone looks at the way in
which it this Trishansh chart is cast he will be surprised at the allotment of
various uneven degrees to cast this chart.
(1.3)
Trishansh is a Sanskrit word
which means 30th part but if the way to cast this Trishansh chart is
looked at then one can easily find that in actual form one Trishansh = 30/30
degrees = 1 deg and so there will be 30 Trishansh in a rashi but in fact it is
not so. Here the drawing of this Trishmansh Chart starts with the Odd and even
signs.
(1.4)
In Odd signs:
(1.41)
Planets in 0 to 5 degs. In odd
signs fall in the trishansh of Mesh rashi
(1.42)
Planets in 5 to 10 degs. In odd
signs fall in the trishansh of Kumbh rashi
(1.43)
Planets in 10 to 18 degs. In odd
signs fall in the trishansh of Dhanur rashi
(1.44)
Planets in 18 to 25 degs. In odd
signs fall in the trishansh of Mithuna rashi
(1.45)
Planets in 25 to 30 degs. In odd
signs fall in the trishansh of Tula rashi
(1.5)
In even Signs:
(1.51)
Planets in 0 to 5 degs. In Even
signs fall in the trishansh of Vrish rashi
(1.52)
Planets in 5 to 12 degs. In
Even signs fall in the trishansh of Kanya rashi
(1.53)
Planets in 12 to 20 degs. In
Even signs fall in the trishansh of Meen rashi
(1.54)
Planets in 20 to 25 degs. In
Even signs fall in the trishansh of Makar rashi
(1.55)
Planets in 25 to 30 degs. In
Even signs fall in the trishansh of Vrischika rashi
(1.6)
Some facts about Trishansh come
out from what is described under (1.4) to (1.55) i.e. (1.61) in odd signs the
distribution of degrees is uneven i.e. 0 to 5, 5 to 10, 10 to 18, 18 to 25
& 25 to 30 and also (1.62) the distribution of degrees is also uneven i.e.
0 to 5, 5 to 12, 12 to 20, 20 to 25 and from 25 to 30. (1.63) The pattern of
distribution of degrees both in odd signs and in even signs differs from each
other. (1.64) Simh rashi and Kark rashi in this Trishansh chart find no place
in giving rooms to planets. (1.65) in this Trishansh each Trishansh is not
equal to 1 degree. (1.66) Each division in this chart contains a band of degrees
so it appears Panchansh not Trishansh.
(1.7)
There are two ways described in
classical Vedic astrology in which this Trisansh can be put to use:
(1.71)
The way to use this Trishansh
chart as described in Brihit Prashara Hora Shaastra
(1.72)
The way to use this Trishansh
chart as described in Brihit Jataka
(1.8)
In Brihit Prashara Hora
Shaastra this Trishansh chart is directed to use to judge the diseases and
miseries in one’s life. It is written under (1.64) that Simh rashi ruled by Sun
and Kark rashi ruled by Moon in this Trishansh chart find no place in giving rooms
to planets. Here Sun represents the aatma and this aatma gives one the
inspiration and Moon is the mana (Mind?) and this mana motivates one. Diseases
and miseries in one’s life occur when inspiration stops working and functioning
of mana becomes disturbed that is why this Trishansh chart is used to judge the
miseries in one’s life.
(1.9)
The occurrences of miseries and
tragedies in one’s life are nothing but the unexpected turns on unknown roads (
Without the influence of Simh rashi ruled by Sun and the giver of inspiration
and that of Kark rashi ruled by Moon the giver of the presence of mind even a
known way becomes unknown) and thus this Brihit Prashara Hora Shaastra is used
to judge miseries in one’s life.
(1.10)
In Brihit Jataka this chart is
directed to use to judge purity and mental disposition in case of female and
some general results depending on the Kaarkatwa of planets.
Part (B)
(2.1)
In my years of experience in
the field of Vedic astrology I have found that the way to use this chart given
in Brihit Prashara Hora Shaastrais only right and works well almost all the
cases and the judgment of this Trishansh chart as per Brihit Jataka has many
limitations.
(2.2)
See the planets occupying 6th,
8th & 12th houses in this Trishansh chart and these
planets generally bring miseries such as diseases & accidents in one’s life
in their Dasha / Antardasha.
(2.3)
See the lord of Trishansh Lagna
in one’s horoscope and check its position in Chalit – Chakra and if it is
associated with malefic planet / planets and occupies 6th, 8th
or 12th bhava then that person suffers the displeasure of the
government and other authorities.
(2.4)
In Trishansh chart, among 6th,
8th & 12th houses the 8th house is the
most malefic house.
(2.5)
If in one’s Trishansh chart
Moon is found in 1st, 6th, 7th, 8th
or 12th house then that person suffers on account of diseases,
accidents and other miseries during the period of Sade-Sati.
Part (C)
(3.1)
As described under (1.66) Each
division in this chart contains a band of degrees so it appears Panchansh not
Trishansh but why it is termed as Trishansh in classical Vedic astrology is
still unknown.
(3.2)
Perhaps because in this chart
the entire 30 degrees are distributed in unequal bands of degrees and thus it
was termed as Trishansh in classical Vedic astrology.
(3.3)
There is another way to cast
this Trishansh Chart but this way is not mentioned in Brihit Prashara Hora
Shaastra. In this type of Trishansh Chart each Trishansh is equal to 1 deg. In
odd signs the counting should start with Mesh rashi onwards and it ends with
Kanya rashi the 30th Trishansh in Odd signs. In Even signs counting
should be made from Tula rashi onwards and it ends with Meen rashi the 30th
Trishansh in even signs.
(3.4)
In my years of experience in
the field of Vedic astrology I have found that this type of Trishansh Chart as
effective as the Trishansh Chart
described in classical Vedic astrology.
(3.5)
Whatever have been described
under (2.2), (2.4) & (2.5) about the use of Trishansh Chart described in
classical Vedic astrology equally apply to this type of Trishansh Chart.
