Numbers play a very important role for auspicious results in Ashtak Varga. Numbers tell us a lot about future transits and their order. All the planets are considered to be weak if they are together from 0 to 3 points. In the same way, they are considered to be average or auspicious from 0 to 4 points. In fact, they are neither considered auspicious nor inauspicious. If five or more points are together, planets are strong and give auspicious results. A person becomes polite, beautiful and successful.

A Kundali should be analyzed after properly studying the principles of Ashtak Varga. First of all, we should notice the numbers of points which have been assigned to the planets. It should also be noted how much points are given to the signs in which the planets reside. If a planet is in its Bhinna Ashtak with more than 5 points and in its Sarva Ashtak with more than 28 points, it is considered to be a very auspicious planet.

We should also use Saint Parashara’s principles while analysing a Kundali. It tells us when a planet would give auspicious and inauspicious results. If an auspicious planet is debilitated or weak, it may be unable to give auspicious results. It is not completely strong. Usually, when a planet gives less than four points in a house, it is exalted in the same house. Hence, it is unable to give auspicious results because of lack of points. Numbers are considered to be extremely important in Ashtak Varga. The principles of Ashtak Varga can be better understood on the basis of Ashtak Varga.

At times, a planet is in its debilitated or enemy sign with less than four points. A person receives inauspicious results in such a situation. Transits are also very important in Ashtak Varga. It is important to study the transits during a planet’s Dasha or Antar Dasha. Transits of planets play an important role in Ashtak Varga. Saturn’s transit is considered to be most important. If during transit, Saturn passes through a sign which consists of a planet in Bhinna Ashtak without any points, Saturn gives results according to the planet’s Karak elements. It troubles a person and causes problems.

In the same way, transits of other planets will be studied. Ashtak Varga can tell us a lot about every aspect of our lives. Jupiter’s transits can tell us a lot about auspicious results. In Ashtak Varga, the higher the number of points of a planet, the more auspicious it will be.
