The Bhinnashtakavarga provides certain keys for judging the worth or utility of some signs containing 0 or 8 bindus and also for evaluating the potency of transits through them. Zero or nil bindus sign means a sign without any benefic place (point or bindu). In the Bhinnashtakavarga of any planet, if any sign is without a bindu, it has some special significance. A sign may contain from 0 to 8 bindus.
When each of the seven planets beginning with the Sun to Saturn transits through a sign in their respective Bhinnashtalcanargas having 0 bindus, the results are as follows:
(i) Sun – Death or its equivalent troubles.
(ii) Moon – Sorrow anxiety, unexpected death
(iii) Mars – Stomach-ache, fainting, eye disease, death.
(iv) Mercury – Loss of everything (through enemies and intrigue) and consequent death.
(v) Jupiter – Loss of wealth or relations or children, becoming dull.
(vi) Venus – All kinds of calamities and
(vii) Saturn – Loss of everything, probability of death.
Death would be a certainty if on a day, the sum of the bindus associated with the seven planets in the signs transited by them (in their respective Bhinnashtakavargas) be very little.
This subject has been treated in two different ways:
1) 0 bindu sign having a planet (out of the remaining six planets) in the Bhinnashtakavarga of a planet;
2) 0 bindu sign not having a planet in it.
In Chart 2, in Jupiter’s Bhinnashtakavarga, the 12th house from the Ascendant has no bindu. The native, though born in a middle class family, was well-to-do. In Chart 3, in Saturn’s Bhinnashtakavarga the 7th house has no bindu.
Houses with Zero Bindus
The various houses (signs) in any Bhinnashtakavarga having 0 bindu give the following results:-
First House – one suffers from serious disease.
Second-Very poor.
Third – Weak-bodied not daring.
Fourth -Unhappy.
Fifth – Evil-minded.
Sixth – Successful (victorious).
Seventh – Without marital happiness, loss of wife.
Eighth – Healthy, long-lived.
Ninth – Doing sinful deeds.
Tenth – Without honor, inactive.
Eleventh – A beggar, without income.
Twelfth – Wealthy.
The native’s wife never enjoyed sound health and was always complaining of aches and pains. According to Phaladeepika (XV-12)
खेटो बिन्दुशून्यर्क्ष युक्त : |
तत्तपाके मूर्तिभावादिकानां नाशं व्रयादैवविप्रा श्नकाय ॥
The destruction of a Bhava from the Ascendant onward should be predicted by the astrologer to a querist, during the Dasa or Bhukti of a planet which occupies a house (sign) where there is no bindu. In Chart 1, in Saturn’s Bhinnashtakavarga there is no bindu in Aquarius sign (the 8th house) which is occupied by Jupiter. So Jupiter Dasa (or Bhukti) should destroy the 8th house or be adverse to the native as far as health is concerned.
The unfavourable results pertaining to the 8th house during Jupiter Bhukti in various Dasa and favourable results pertaining to the 4th house during the Moon Bhuktis in various Dasas were more or less actually experienced by the native.
According to Chandrakala Nadi, Vol-II (Part I, V-439)
सूर्याष्टवर्गे नवमे बिन्दु शून्ये प्रजायते
पित्रुव्यद्वेषमूलेन स्वपित्र रिष्टमादिशेत
If there is 0 bindu in the 9th house (sign) from the Ascendant in the Sun’s Bhinnashtakavarga., the native’s father’s ill-luck, misfortune, injury, loss or calamity is caused by the enmity of father’s brethren. The Sun gives a bindu in the 9th place from him while the ascendant does not contribute a bindu in the 9th place; hence Navame is interpreted as the 9th from the Ascendant.
According to Chandrakala Nadi, Vol II(Part I, V-417)
भिन्नाष्टकवर्गे लग्नेशे फलहीनस्य राशिषु Iस्फुटयोगं गते जीवेत्वलपसौरव्य˙‖
Transits in Bhinnashtakavarga
a) SUN – When the Sun transits a sign having 0 bindus in his Bhinnashtakavarga, the solar month represented by that sign every year is auspicious for marriage and other religious functions, quarrels and other miseries occur during that month.
b) MOON – (i)When the Moon transits a sign void of a bindu in his bhinnashtakavarga, one should perform any auspicious work, because all functions undertaken will end in failure. (ii) Even contact or association with persons having their Moon in a sign containing 0 bindu(in the Moon’s Bhinnashtakavarga.)The will result in great disaster.
(c) Mars – Vararuchi, Ch.IV, V.2l
कुजाष्टकवर्गे...सोदरे बिंदुहीने च भ्रातृहीनों भवेत्र्र :
(a) If the 3rd house from Mars in his Bhinnashtakavarga is without a bindu, the native has no brother (or sister), (b)When Mars in his Bhinnashtakavarga transits through a sign without a bindu, the brother or sister of the native will suffer miseries, ill-health, injury etc.
(e) Jupiter – Practically all standard texts on astrology refer to the 5th house from Jupiter to determine the number of children. But Balabhadra refers to the 9th house from Jupiter in the following verse :
गुरोरष्टकवर्गेषु संतानमपि कल्पयेत|गुरो ∶स्थितः शुभस्थाने विघते यवथा फलम ‖
Chart 2: Male: Born July 28, 1923 at 5h.48m. (lST) at 23N2, 72E39, with a balance 9 years 10 month,1 day of Moon Dasa at birth.
In support of this view, refer to Chart 2, There is no bindu in the 9th house from Jupiter in his Bhinnashtakavarga. The native had no children and died on June 2, 1990 (67th year) when Jupiter was transiting the 12th house (Gemini sign) without a bindu. No doubt, as
referred earlier, the native, having 0 bindu in the l2th house from the Ascendant, was wealthy.
Further research on this point is necessary.
(f) Venus – According to Prabudh Hora Navarna (1- 47)
अल्परेखान्विते शूक्रवर्गराशिगत शनौ Ι
नारीवियोगजं ढु :खं तदा वाधं सुरिभे :॥
Learned astrologers say that when Saturn transits a sign having very few bindus (nil or one) in Venus’ Bhinnashtakavarga., a native suffers from the pangs of separation from his wife (absence of conjugal hoppiness, staying away from wife on account of some unavoidable circumstances).
uncle or aunt, Jupiter for the children and Venus, for the wife.
(ii) According to Vararuchi, Chap IV(62-63)
दुष्टस्थानधिपाथे मन्द दुष्टस्यानांस्थातोपि वा ॥अत्प बुद्धि समायाते जातौ दैन्य मवन्पुयात् lरोगी भवति दुष्टात्मा विद्दभावे मरिष्यति ॥
If Saturn, occupying or owning the 6th, the 8th or the l2th house is associated with one bindu, the native suffers poverty. If such a Saturn is associated with 0 bindus (in the natal chart) the native is a wicked man or suffers from diseases or dies a premature death.
(iii) Narada says,
If Saturn is associated with 0 bindu MAY 2015 in his Bhinnashtakavarga of Saturn in any sign in the natal chart short life will result or the native will lose all his wealth.
Chart 3: Male: Born October 7, 1935, at 5h.10m at23N2, 72E39, with a balance of 9 years 6 days of Moon Dasa at birth.
In Chart 3, Satum, lord of the 6th house is in the 7th house. In the Bhinnashtakavarga of Saturn, the 7th house has no bindu. The native, though born in a rich family, passed through direct circumstances. He lost the greater part of his paternal wealth in the mid-80’s.
If the Sun and the Moon along with Saturn transit the said sign and if the Dasa or Bhukti of a Maraka planet is in progress, death may
take place.
