星盘 1Chart 1

师父接着阐释行星的落位以及右手纹相的影响。

The Master proceeds to delineate the effect of the placement of planets and the signs on the right hand.

“此命主右手有四处轮纹（chakra），另有一处状如游鱼的印记。命主出生于湿婆派社群，但他视湿婆与哈里（毗湿奴）无别。”南迪凯什瓦拉对马尔坎德亚如是说。

"This native has four chakras and another sign resembling a fish in his right hand. The native is born in a Saiva community. But, he does not see any difference between Shiva and Hari", so said Nandikeswara to Markandeya.

弟子想知道如何看出出生的社群。

The disciple wanted to know how to find the community of birth.

师父回答道：“除了社群之外，连名字也是可以知晓的。占星之学便是如此神妙。你会看到，木星位于摩羯座——这是一个由土星掌管的Iswaramsa 星座——而在其正下方，有代表帕尔瓦蒂（雪山神女）的月亮，以及代表尾巴的计都。因此，我们推断命主是一位湿婆派信徒。”

The Master answered, "It is possible to know the name too, besides the community. Such is the science of Astrology. You will see that Jupiter is posited in Capricorn in Iswaramsa sign owned by Saturn--and just below there is the Moon representing Parwati and Ketu representing tail. Hence, we infer that the native is a Saivite."

弟子发问，为何命主的名字不能代表毗湿奴。

The disciple questions why the native could not have a name represented by Vishnu.

师父回答说：“口由罗睺代表，火星代表角，木星代表胃，计都代表尾巴。由于计都与月亮同处一个星座，‘Kshiramsa Sambhuta’（乳海所生）指生于乳海（雪山神女／帕尔瓦蒂）者。因此，这些特征描述的是一头南迪（神牛）。其名字可能取自湿婆的坐骑南迪。”

The Master answers--"The mouth is represented by Rahu. Mars represents horns and Jupiter represents the stomach and Ketu the tail. As Ketu and the Moon are in the same sign a 'Kshiramsa Sambhuta' indicates one born in the Ocean of Milk (Parvati). Thus, the nature of the personality describes a Nandi (Bull). The name may be that of Shiva's Vahana Nandi."

弟子想知道，是否当天出生的所有人名字都可能相同。师父回答说，这取决于各具体个案的实际情况。名字可以以南迪凯什瓦拉的首字母开头——名字亦可取自南迪的其他称呼，如弗里沙巴（Vrishabha）、巴萨瓦（Basava）等，或是以其首字母起头，或是这些字母出现在名字末尾，从而表示与‘南迪’存在某种联系。

The disciple wants to know if it is possible for everyone born on that day to have the same name. The Master answers that it depends on the circumstances of each case. The names can begin with the first letter of Nandikeswara--Names can be chosen from the other names of Nandi like Vrishabha, Basava etc., either with the first letter or letters occurring at the end of name, thus, indicating some sort of affiliation to 'Nandi'.

现在，正在被研读星盘的这位命主体型消瘦。命主的父亲是一名务农者，他也会积聚一些财富。但奇特之处在于，这笔钱财将被分给命主的其他兄弟以及父母自己的兄弟。

Now, the native, whose chart is being studied, has a lean body. The native's father is an agriculturist. He will also amass some wealth. But, the strange fact is that this money will be distributed to the other brothers of the native and the parents' own brothers.

弟子对此感到惊异，想了解做出这一判断所依据的理由。

The disciple wonders at this and wants to know the reasons on which this judgment is based.

作者坦言，详尽的预测方法会耗费巨大的精力与周折，因此仅在此案中予以详述；然而读盘的法则对所有星盘都是通用的，且在很大程度上，正是‘象意’（Karakatwa）掌握着解读的关键钥匙。

The author admits that detailed method of forecasting would involve great expenditure and trouble, so only in this case it is being given, but the rules of the reading are the same for all charts and mostly it is the 'Karakatwa' that holds the key for the reading.

师父回答道：由于代表父亲的太阳位于处女座——这是一个象征草木、丰收庄稼等的星座——因此我们推断他是一名务农者；又因太阳与金星同宫，他必然通过自己的职业积攒了一定钱财。此外，位于太阳顺数第二位的土星受到火星的直接照会，明确指示出其人拥有某些土地。太阳旁边紧邻其子土星，土星又受到代表父亲兄弟的火星之照会；土星还与水星同宫。因此，父母的钱财将由其兄弟与诸子共同分得。

The Master answers that as the Sun representing father is posited in Virgo, a sign of vegetation, good crops etc., so we infer he is an agriculturist and as he is in conjunction with Venus, he must have amassed some money through his profession. Further, Saturn in the second house to the Sun, aspected directly by Mars, clearly indicates one owning some lands. The Sun has his own son Saturn next to him aspected by Mars representing brothers to the parent. Saturn is also in conjunction with Mercury. Hence, the parents' money will be shared by his brothers and sons.

弟子感到不解，为何位于太阳所在星座起数第八位的火星，会成为兄弟们分钱的原因。

The disciple wonders why Mars placed in the 8th to the sign occupied by the Sun should be the cause for the brothers sharing the money.

师父回答说，由于水星与金星互换星座，与太阳同宫的金星在天秤座获得了自己的份位（amsa），而该位置受到白羊座火星的直接照会，因此父亲将金钱（金星／份位）给予了其兄弟，而兄弟的征象星（Karaka）正是火星。

The Master answers that as Mercury and Venus have exchanged signs, Venus, who is in conjunction with the Sun, gets his own ansa in Libra which is directly aspected by Mars in Aries, the parent gives away the money (Venus/amsa) to his brother whose Karaka is Mars.

师父继续说道：命主排行第二。他有一位比他年长的姐姐，在他之后出生了五个弟弟和一个妹妹。师父给出了推断兄弟姐妹数量的线索。

The Master continues-The native is the second born. He has one sister elder to him, and has five brothers and a sister born after him. The Master gives the clue for the numbers of brothers and sisters.

在此盘中，木星独居于摩羯座。木星所在星座的前一个星座中有月亮，因此他有一位姐姐。木星代表命主本体，在其行运中依次穿过：(1) 火星、(2) 罗睺、(3) 太阳、(4) 土星、以及 (5) 水星。所以他会有五个弟弟；又由于木星在第一轮行运中会行经金星，故而他还会有一个妹妹。

Here, Jupiter is in Capricorn all alone. There is the Moon in the previous sign to the one occupied by Jupiter. Hence, he has an elder sister. Jupiter represents the native, and in his transits he crosses (1) Mars, (2) Rahu, (3) the Sun, (4) Saturn and (5) Mercury. So he will have five younger brothers and as there is Venus over which Jupiter transits in his first round, he will have one younger sister.

在此之后，师父开始阐述木星自出生起各轮常规行运的规律，并指出了命主在若干轮行运中遭受疾病、获得幸福的年龄，以及婚姻、子嗣出生等发生的年份。

After this, the Master takes up the regular tansits of Jupiter from birth and indicates the ages at which the native suffers from disease, obtains happiness and indicates marriage, birth of children etc., during several rounds.

在第一个十二年周期中，当木星进入双鱼座时，受到白羊座逆行火星的照会，因此命主将因血液受染而遭受创伤与肿胀之苦。届时该孩童的年龄为3至5岁。这包括在双鱼座和白羊座各行运一年的时间。该孩童在6岁时，当木星行经罗睺所在的双子座，将遭受风疾困扰。命主将从所有这些病痛中痊愈。在大约9岁和10岁时，当木星行经水星守护的处女座和金星守护的天秤座，且水星与金星互换了位置，该孩童将免于溺水之灾。

In the first round of 12 years, Jupiter, when he enters Pisces, has the aspects of retrograde Mars in Aries and so the native will suffer from wounds and swelling on account of pollution of blood. The child's age then would be 3 to 5 years. This includes transits in Pisces and Aries for one year in each sign. The child will suffer from windy troubles in his 6th year when Jupiter transits Gemini where Rahu is posited. The native will get well from all these ailments. About the 9th and 10th years when Jupiter transits Virgo owned by Mercury and Libra owned by Venus and both having exchange of places, the child will escape drowning.

在14至15岁时，当木星在其第二轮行运中行经双鱼座与白羊座，命主的学业将取得进展。

At 14-15 the native will make a headway in his education when Jupiter transits Pisces and Aries, in his second round.

弟子想知道，由于火星对水星的照会，命主的求学生涯是否会遭遇困难。

The disciple wants to know if the native will not have difficulties in his educational career on account of the aspect of Mars on Mercury.

师父说：“你提出了一个聪明的问题，但你没有问为什么命主在14、15、16岁时摆脱了创伤与风疾的困扰。我现在就来解释。虽然火星导致创伤、罗睺导致胀气之疾，但木星行运经过白羊座与金牛座时，受到天秤座土星与水星的对冲，且由于它们是仇敌，因而阻碍了火星与罗睺制造麻烦。基于同样的原因，虽然火星与罗睺可能产生妨碍，但水星落在金星的星座，并受到摩羯座本命木星从其所在位置起数第九位的照会，因此水星的照会帮助了命主在木星第二轮行运中的学业生涯。”

The Master says-You have put the intelligent question, but you have failed to ask why the native got over the troubles from wounds and windy troubles at the age 14-15-16. I will explain now. Though Mars causes wounds and Rahu causes gas trouble, Jupiter's transit of Aries and Taurus is opposed by Saturn and Mercury in Libra and as they are enemies they hinder both Mars and Rahu from causing trouble. For the same reason though Mars and Rahu may hinder, the aspect of Mercury occupying the house of Venus and having the 9th aspect of natal Jupiter from Capricorn helped the native in his educational career during the transit of Jupiter in his second round.

关于父亲对额外积蓄的处置：代表命主父亲的太阳与金星同宫，但金星在处女座落陷而衰弱——因此显而易见的是，父亲虽拥有土地形式的祖产，但因金星衰弱，祖产并不丰厚。

As regards the disposal of the extra savings by the father, the Sun representing father of the native is in conjunction with Venus, but Venus is debilitated and weak in Virgo—so it is clear that the father had paternal property in the shape of lands, but it was not much as Venus was weak.

水星与土星位于太阳顺数第二位，指示出收入的来源。然而这两颗星都被作为敌星的强势火星所对冲，因此收入微薄。父亲挥霍无度的事实，则由太阳与好慕虚荣、渴望皇家般生活的金星（太阳所在位置顺数第二宫的主星）同宫来解释。

The placement of Mercury and Saturn in the 2nd to the Sun ndicates sources of income. But both the planets are opposed by a strong Mars who is an enemy and so the income was meagre. That the father spent lavishly is explained by the fact that the Sun is conjunct Venus who is vain-glorious and so wants a royal type of living. (2nd Lord to the Sun's position).

在《南迪纳迪》（Nandi Nadi）第5偈（sloka）开头显示了一个数学符号“3 4 4 5”。该偈说道，命主在17岁时学业将出现中断并产生沉重开销，且命主的姐姐将在那时离世。

In the Nandi Nadi at the beginning of sloka 5 a mathematical symbol is shown as 3 4 4 5. The sloka says that the native will have break in his studies at 17 and incur heavy expenses, and the elder sister of the native will pass away at that time.

在第二轮行运期间，当木星接触火星（位于月亮起数第三位）时，二者均受到水星（第四位）的照会，指示出沉重的开销。此外，木星在17至18岁时接触罗睺（一颗逆行星），引发诸多困厄与痛苦。代表姐姐的月亮位于木星出生位置起数第十二位。月亮的移动以及与逆行的火星、永恒逆行的罗睺之接触，导致了姐姐的去世。

During the second round of transit, when Jupiter contacts Mars (3rd from the Moon), both being aspected by Mercury (4th) and heavy expenses are indicated. Further, Jupiter contacts Rahu (a retrograde planet) at the age of 17-18 and causing many troubles and miseries. The Moon representing elder sister is in the 12th to Jupiter's placement at birth. The Moon's movement and contact with the retrograde Mars and Rahu, who is always retrograde, results in the death of elder sister.

在22岁时——当木星行经水星的擢升之宫处女座时，其学业活动将出现向上转机；在该宫与金星相合以及进入金星所辖的天秤座，均指示出婚事商议将就此展开。

At 22—when Jupiter transits Mercury's exaltation house Virgo, his educational activity will take an upward turn and conjunction of Venus in that house and entry into Libra owned by Venus, indicate that marriage negotiations would take place.

弟子想在探讨婚姻问题之前，先了解命主所受教育的性质。

The disciple wants to know the nature of education the native will have before going into the question of marriage.

师父如此回答道：由于土星与代表艺术／技艺的水星同宫（落于金星之家），且代表工程与机械的火星照会土星与水星，人们不得不推断出命主可能会从事工程职业并在教育机构中工作。

The Master answers thus--As Saturn, is conjunct Mercury (in the house of Venus) who stands for Arts and as Mars who stands for Engineering and Machinery aspects Saturn and Mercury, one has to infer that the native may take up a profession in Engineering and work in an educational institution.

在行经双子座之后，木星在其第三个周期中接触到处女座的金星，这大约发生在命主30岁左右，很可能缔结婚姻。紧接着，木星接触到在天秤座擢升的土星，因此命主将在政府机构中受雇担任享有公报职级的官职。

After transiting Gemini, Jupiter in his 3rd round contacts Venus in Virgo which happens around the native's 30th year, marriage is likely to take place. Immediately, thereafter, Jupiter contacts Saturn in exaltation in Libra and so the native will be employed in a Government Institution in a gazetted rank. -

弟子想知道，为何此处将重要性赋予了木星，而通常情况并非如此，因为在大多数案例中谋生问题都是根据土星的运行来考察的。

The disciple wants to know why here importance is given to Jupiter which is not the case usually as the question of livelihood is considered from Saturn's movements in most of the cases.

师父回答道：所从事的工作虽是土星的结果，但对其成果的享用则归属于代表灵魂的木星。木星行运于太阳与金星之上，其效应经由它们传递给位于其顺数第二位（亦由金星所辖）的土星，这使得与水星同宫的土星被赋予生机，进而通过提供政府工程学院的高级职位塑造了其人生。由于木星在下一宫接触月亮与本命木星，这一效应进一步得到增强。这些星盘配置赋予了命主显赫的地位。

The Master answers while work done is the result of Saturn, the enjoyment of the result is ascribed to Jupiter who represents the soul. The transit of Jupiter oh the Sun and Venus was transmitted by them to Saturn placed in the 2nd house to them (owned by Venus also) and this leads to vitalizing Saturn conjuct Mercury which shapes the life by offering a high post in a Government Engineering College. This is further augmented by the fact that Jupiter contacts the Moon and natal Jupiter in the next house. These dispositions bestow an exalted position to the native.

木星在完成第三轮行运时将已运行了36年，并在行经其本命位置的该年龄为命主带来声名与名望。当木星在第四轮行经其本宫双鱼座时，受到处女座中与太阳同宫之金星的照会，命主将继承父母的财产。此后木星旋即接触白羊座的火星与双子座的罗睺，约在41至42岁前后，他将遭遇身居最高职位者的反对。随后，当木星在双子座与罗睺相合时，受到射手座月亮的照会，使命主得以出洋远行。紧接着的巨蟹座是木星的擢升之宫，且由月亮掌管。因此，出国远行将一直持续到木星穿过太阳所辖的狮子座为止。当木星在处女座接触太阳时，命主从海外归来将获得更高职位与更丰厚报酬，并将不断提升自身地位，直至木星在48岁完成第四轮行运。这一向好态势将持续到50岁木星抵达双鱼座时。

Jupiter, when completing the 3rd round, will have travelled for 36 years and offers name and fame to the native at that age of transiting his natal position. When in the 4th round Jupiter transits his own house Pisces, he gets the aspect of Venus from Virgo conjunct the Sun, the native will get into possession of parental property. Immediately after this Jupiter contacts Mars in Aries and Rahu in Gemini and about the years 41-42 he gets opposition from those in highest position. Then, when Jupiter conjoins Rahu in Gemini he gets the aspect of the Moon in Sagittarius and enabling the native to go on foreign travels. The very next house Cancer is an exaltation sign for Jupiter and the Moon owns it. Therefore, the foreign travels will continue until Jupiter crosses over Leo owned by the Sun. When Jupiter contacts the Sun in Virgo, the native will get a higher job on return from foreign travels, and higher emoluments and will go on improving his status until Jupiter completes his fourth round at 48th year. This will go upto 50th year when Jupiter reaches Pisces.

关于子嗣，木星在33岁与金星接触为他带来一个女儿；当木星在36岁行经其出生本位时，命主将得一子。这两个孩子都将福泽深厚。

As regards children Jupiter's contact with Venus at 33 gives him a daughter, and when Jupiter transits his own place at birth at 36 the native will have a boy. These two children will be very lucky.

我们现在来到这篇人生故事的最后一章，即木星在其第五轮行运中接触罗睺。这将发生在命主年届53岁之时。此一行运将导致命主去世。

We now come to the last chapter of this life story when Jupiter contacts Rahu in his 5th round. This will be when the native will attain the age of 53. This transit will cause death of the native.

向吉祥南迪凯什瓦拉致敬，感谢其对出生时行星配置的阐发。

Salutations to Sree Nandikeswara for this elucidation of the planetary positions at the time of birth.

在推断其他星盘的断语时，亦将遵循这同一原则——即始终重视征象象意（Karakatwas）。

This same principle will be followed in delineating the results of other charts also-importance being given to Karakatwas.
