Some very important concept or tools for prediction is given in Phaldeepika of Manteswar. In ADHYAYA – IV sloka -12 Manteswar has explained the concept of Chandra kriya, Chandra vela and Chandra Awastha. These concepts are equally important in birth chart, Muhurth and prasana analysis. So Astrologer should consider these concepts before giving any prediction. Here I the method of finding Chandra Awastha and its result as per the text.
Chandra Awastha -- The time taken by Moon to cover a star (13° 20') divided by 12 yields an Awastha. So to find Chandra Awastha one has to find total time taken by Moon to cross a NAKSHTRA at a particular time [be it birth, Muhurth or Prasana] –this total time duration is than divided by 12 gives 12 Chandra Awastha –to make it more simple divide nakshtra span [13° 20’] by 12 and see that in which part birth, Muhurth or Prasana has taken place. Each Chandra Awastha will correspond to 1 degree 06 minute 40 seconds –first 1 degree 06 minute 40 seconds is first Awastha ,next 1 degree 06 minute 40 seconds is second Chandra Awastha of that Nakshtra and so on .For each Chandra Awastha specific result are assigned.
I am giving here the result of 12 Chandra Awastha.
1 Forsaking birth place and taking up
residence elsewhere
2 Kingly status
3 Fear of life
4 Kingly status
5 Status in keeping with family status
6 Diseases
7 Elevated status
8 Fear
9 Troubles from boils
10 Matrimony
11 Resting comfortably
12 Happy & tasty meals
Note –You have to divide your Nakshtra by 12 and see in which part Moon is placed in your chart and then see the result.
