rahas in the horoscope give theirbenefic, malefic and Rajayoga

results on their lordships and

strength.

Sometimes it is seen that a benefic Graha in

good strength and also being

Rajayogakaraka fails to give beneficial

results. It gives malefic instead of benefic

results and even death. The reason for such

is not visible but if examined in sufficient

detail then the reason is clearly visible.

Some sensitive points are responsible for

such behavior. These sensitive points are

not visible Grahas or bodies but are

arithmetical points and change the results

heavily by their presence. A Graha which

appears very beneficial and Rajayogakarakamay prove destructive by being positioned

on such points. One of such sensitive points is

Mrityubhag.

Mrityu means destruction of natural capacity of

the body of a being. A Graha loses its capacity

to give results when it is close to

Mrityubhag in the same manner as

anyones body is destroyed when close to

death. Grahas get Mrityu

status when they are on the sensitive point called Mrityubhag.

Certain specific degrees of the 30 degrees of each Rashi are called Mrityubhag of the

Rashi.

Mrityubhag Degreeshere are variations in the Mrityubhag of the Moon in different texts.

Mrityubhag portions mentioned in some prominent texts are as follows:

As per the above shloka if the Moon is in the following degrees then the native dies. The

age at death is equal to the Mrityu degrees of the Moon,

References: Sarvarth Chintamani chapter 10 shloka 47-51 Khemraj Shrikrishnadas Phaladeepika chapter 13 Gopeshkumar Ojha Saravali chapter 11 commented by Muralidhar Chaturvedi Jatakabharnam Arishtadhyaya 15 shloka 51 Khemraj Krishnadas, Bombay considers

the degrees mentioned in Saravali as Mrityu degrees.

Editors notes:The English translation of Phaladeepika by V.Subramaniya Sastri has the sloka numbers as 10

and 11. What is given in the table above under Phaladeepika are the contents of sloka 10.

Under sloka 11 Sastri has explained like this: The following are (also) respectively deemed (by

some others) as (Mrityubhagas or fateful degrees) in the several signs from Mesha (Aries)onwards. 8, 9, 22, 22, 25, 14, 4, 23, 18, 20, 21 and 10.

Sarvartha Chinthamani gives the Mrityu Bhaga of Moon from Aries onwards as 8, 25, 22, 22, 21,

1, 4, 23, 18, 20, 20 and 10. This is the same in Jataka Parijatam also.

Majority of texts mention the Mrityubhag of only the Moon but Late Shri Gopeshkumar

Ojha has included a table of Mrityubhag of all Grahas in Jataka Parijat. As per Jatak

Parijat translated by Gopeshkumar Ojha page 75 Rashisheeladhyaya the table of

Mrityubhag of all Grahas is as follows:

(Note:- Above table is as per Jatak Parijat by Gopeshkumar Ojha, page 75Rashisheeladhyaya, Motilal Banarasidas edition)In chapter 3 of Uttarkalamrita the translator Dr Sureshchandra Mishra has also

mentioned the above degrees for Lagna and Moon as Mrityubhag.

In chapter 13 of Phaladeepika Gopeshkumar Ojha has mentioned the Mrityubhag of

Lagna at variance with that mentioned in Jataka Parijat. Mrityubhag degrees of Lagna in

Phaladeepika are as follows:

Rashi Ar Ta Ge Cn Le Vi Li Sc Sg Cp Aq PiMrityu degrees of Lagna 8 9 22 22 25 14 4 23 18 20 21 10

According to Phaladeepika chapter 13 commented by Gopeshkumar Ojha it is believed

that the presence of Moon on Mrityubhag results in early death of the native.Similarly,chapter 10 of Sarvarth Chintamani mentions that the Moon on Mrityubhag gives death.The Moon in Mrityubhag in a Rashi results in death in the same number of years as are

the degrees of Mrityubhag without a doubt. I have, however, not seen this in studies of

horoscopes. It is possible afterreaching the end of life either as per the horoscope or in theperiod of Markesh.

After studying many horoscopes in the guidance of my Guru Respected Shri Shakti

Mohan Singh1 it is noticed that all Graha in Mrityubhag definitely show malefic effect.In a Rashi, any Graha close to Mrityubhag is incapable of giving its benefic or malefic

results. Such a Graha helps to increase and strengthen the malefic effects of the House in

a horoscope. Results of a Graha positioned on Mrityubhag are affected in three ways.

1) Obstructions are created in the benefic results of the house owned by the Graha2) Obstructions may be created in the results of the natural significations of the Graha.

3) Parts of the body represented by the Graha may be disfigured or diseased.

If a Graha positioned in Mrityubhag is also on Amritghati or Pushkar Navansh then some reduction is

seen in its unfavourable effects, else the possibility of unfavourable results is increased. In

addition, if any Graha or Lagna is in Vishaghati alongwith being on Mrityubhag then it will

definitely be harmful.

Results of Graha Positioned in Mrityubhagarious Grahas positioned in Mrityubhag produce suffering and inauspicious results in

the following areas in addition to the results related to their own house.

1- Sun Will power, bones, heart disease and father2- Moon Mind, mental disease, water borne disease, blood related and mother3- Mars Bone marrow disease, younger siblings and accident4- Mercury Technology, brain, mental aberration, skin disease and fathers sister 5- Jupiter Destruction of knowledge and wisdom, fat or cholesterol related disease,

children, elder siblings and signifies husband for women

6- Venus Signifies reproductive organs, sexual diseases, diabetes, marriage, reduction inhappiness specially absence of happiness related with women

7- Saturn Nerve disease, paralysis, labour class and capacity for hard work8- Rahu Effects of poison, misconception, obstructions, tumours, paternal grandfather9- Ketu Sudden accidents, early death and sufferings to maternal grandfather

Some examples of birth charts of people having Grahas positioned on Mrityubhag are as

follows based with reference to the Mrityubhag table available in Jatak Parijat commentary by

Shri Gopeshkumar Ojha

hallucinations and destruction of marital happiness.

This child born in Capricorn Lagna has aspect of Lagna Lord on the Lagna. In this chart,

Moon is in Mrityubhag. The Moon signifies thoughts, mind, feelings and emotions. The

child appears physically healthy due to Lagna Lord Sa being in Pushkar Navansh. Her

psyche and mind did not develop along with her age and physique. This has resulted in

the child being unable to understand and take independent decisions. She is able to workto the extent only what she is told to do.

Mrityubhag This woman born in Cancer Lagna has seventh house Lord Sa with exalted Me along

with ninth house Lord Ju but is in Mrityubhag. The woman was married on 21 January

2004 and immediately thereafter her married life was quarrelsome. Her husband was alsosometimes physically abusive. The situation reverted to the same situation many times

even after counseling. Divorce proceedings are in progress at present. The seventh house

Lord Sa in Mrityubhag destroyed marital happiness.

The above examples seem to indicate that Mrityubhag plays important role in predictive

astrology. Due to variations of Moon and Lagna Mrityubhag in classical texts it will be

hasty to conclude on correctness of a particular Mrityubhag degree. My research

continues with my associates on various Mrityubhag degrees. I appeal to the learnedreaders to share their experiences. I have written the above treatise with reference to the

Mrityubhag table available in Jatak Parijat commentary by Shri Gopeshkumar Ojha.
