Treatise on Horoscopy Based on the Principles of Satya Samhita
This
is an English version of great Astrological work by Satyacharya, considered to
embody the principles of Dhruva Nadi and Satya Samhita Nadi. It is told in this
work that its principles were communicated by Dhruva to Jaimini, who in turn
passed them on to Garga who transmitted them to Vyasa, wherefrom Satya Rishi
got them. The name Satyacharya is expressively quoted several times with great
reverence by Varahamihira in his Brihat Jataka. Now coming to the merits of
this book, there are many special features in this work that render it unique.
Such a treatment of the subject of astrology is novel to this book and is not
to be found elsewhere in other texts on the subject. Some of the distinguishing
features of this work are the exposition of stellar theory, Panchasiddhanta
criterion, Bhavaphala, Grahakarakatva and Dashaphala. The book gives rules to
determine the effects of the planets placed in different Nakshatras which are
not to be found in general works.
