Introduction The present work is one more addition to the existig lite rature pertaining to the great and celestial science of Astro logy. Many ordinary incidents in life which we pass by and no tice not, as well as the phenomena of nature, are easily explained with reference to Astrology. There have been indications of it in the works which I have previously translated, viz., Brihat jataka, Jatakaparijata, Sripati Paddhati and Phaladeepika, works by the giants of Astrology. As an instance of the influence of the pheno mena of nature on human life, reference may be made to the rainbow caused by the refraction of the Sun's rays through a watery prism consisting of particles of rain water. The rainbow is produced of a morning or of an evening, that is, when the Sun is at the Lagna or the Astha Lagna. Then, when the Sun is at the Lagna or the Rising Sign or the Ascendant, the seventh house is encircled by beautiful circles of the seven variegated colours on a watery plane. Even so, the Rising Sign is encircled by circles of like nature, when the Sun is posited in the 7th house. The Lagna represents the native, while the seventh house denotes the partner of the native, The Life of the native will be happy, cordial and jovial if there be a sympathetic, loving and under standing support from the partner. The seven colours of the rainbow represents the seven planets who by various combi nations produce the seven kinds of energy or seven modes of motion that are found common in the universe.
