Sthana Bala (Continued)
3. Ojhajugmariamsa Bala
Ojhajugmariamsa Bala is about the placement of the planets odd/even Rasis and Navamsas.Female planets (Moon, Venus) get 15 Virupas if they are placed in in even Rasi/Navamsa, zero otherwise.
Male planets (Sun, Mars, Jupiter) and neutral planets (Mercury, Saturn) get 15 Virupas if they are placed in in odd Rasi/Navamsa, zero otherwise.
This calculation must be made for Rasi an Navamsa chart separately, i.e. a planet can get a maximum of 30 Virupas for this kind of strength.
Ojhajugmariamsa Bala Example
Moon in 1 Pisces gets 15 Virupas for Rasi placement in odd sign and 15 Virupas for placement in female Navamsa (Cancer). The total Ojhajugmariamsa Bala is therefore 30 Virupas.
4. Kendradi Bala
Kendradi Bala evaluates the fact that planets in angles (Kendras) are stronger than planets in succedent or cadent houses.
Each planet in angle gets full strength (60 Virupas), planets in succedent houses get 50% of strength (30 Virupas), while planets in cadent houses only get 25% (15 Virupas). There is no distinction between male and female planets etc. in this Bala type.
The table below shows the Kendradi Bala for all houses.
| Type | Houses | Strength (Virupas) |
|---|---|---|
| Kendra (angle) | 1, 4, 7, 10 | 60 |
| Panaphara (succedent) | 2, 5, 8, 11 | 30 |
| Apoklima (cadent) | 3, 6, 9, 12 | 15 |
5. Drekkana Bala
Drekkana Bala is based upon placement of planets in decanates of Rasis.
Male planets get 15 Virupas in first decanate, female planets in 2nd decanate, neutral planets in 3rd decanate. This evalution is valid for all zodiacal signs; there is no distinction between male and female signs.
The table below shows the Drekkana Bala for Rasi positions. The degrees are the Rasi portions of the planets' lengths (e.g. Mars in 15° Leo will have Drekkana portion of 15° in the table).
| Planets/Degrees | 0° - 10° | 10° - 20° | 20°- 30° |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sun, Mars, Jupiter | 15 | 0 | 0 |
| Moon, Venus | 0 | 15 | 0 |
| Mercury, Saturn | 0 | 0 | 15 |
