Nakshatra and Nadi Jyotish

This volume covers several facets of Nakshatra and Nadi Jyotisha. The Nakshatra Jyotisha delineates the core principles of the Meena1 Nadi, Meena2 Nadi, Krishnamurti Paddhati (KP) and Iyer's Paddhati. Iyer's Paddhati is based on the legendary Jyotishi Sri HR Sheshadri Iyer, whose books, the New Techniques of Prediction 3 volumes, are cornerstones of Jyotisha.

Sri Iyer did not exclusively deal with the Nakshatras. Still, his determination and usage of Yogi and Avayogi and the usage of Nakshatra is pathbreaking, which is why it is included in this book dedicated to Nakshatra and Nadi Jyotisha. I have covered in detail some abstruse concepts with worked-out examples, such as the Starter and Ruler for assessment of Vimshottari Dasha.

The Nadi Jyotisha section covers the essential principles from Saptarishi Nadi and Bhrigu Nandi Nadi. Besides providing a synopsis of the genre of Nadi Jyotisha, there is a detailed exploration of topics such as the blending of Karakatvas and how the blending is affected by the sequence of Grahas having yuti in a Rashi.

I hope that this book will provide wide coverage of topics from both Nakshatra and Nadi Jyotisha that both beginners and advanced practitioners would find useful.
