This book contains 54 chapters. The opening chapter deals with the ‘Manifestation of Astrology’ tracing its derivation from ‘Vedas’, the first Shastra, for which astrology is reckoned as the limb of Vedas. A few chapters are devoted to astrological terms and elementary niceties and principles. Besides, some chapters are linked to discovering the nature of native physical peculiarities, fortune, etc., from planetary positions at the time of conception and multifold births. The next chapters treat early death, i.e., ‘Balaarishta’, on determining the length of life (longevity). In addition, some material is adduced on Raj and other Yogas, and ‘Anishtadhyaya’ contains several malevolent planetary positions, each connected with some evil of human life. Even ‘Kala Sharpa’ Yoga is discussed over here. A chapter is devoted to women and this is followed by one on compatibility and ‘Milapa’, determining the marriage prospects and even ‘Kuja’ Dosha is discussed.
Towards the end, 12 chapters are devoted to 12 ‘Houses’, bringing out their generic and special effects separately, and the matters covering planetary house lords' placement vis-a-vis their significations are discussed elaborately. This and much more researched information is condensed in this text which will immensely benefit the respected readers.
