Dagdha Rashi is the result of the combination of Day, Tithi( lunar day)
and Nakshaktra(constellation). It’s also called Burnt sign. Out of these Tithi,
is most important in predictive astrology. Tithi assumes an extremely
distinctive part in astrology though the majority of the Vedic astrologer
overlooks 'its significance while making forecasts.
We have 14 Tithis of Shukla
Paksha(waxing Moon period) and 14 of Krishna Paksha,(waning Moon period) in
this way making the aggregate of 28. Since one Tithi contains Poornima (Full
moon) and one Amavasya (New moon) it an aggregate 30 Tithis and these 30 Tithis
make one lunar month. To start with Tithi is known as Pratipada( 1st) and the
last one is Chaturdashi,(14th) barring Poornima and Amavasya. Each native is
born on some Tithi from Pratipada to Chaturdashi and obviously on Poornima and
Amavasya also.
Presently on each Tithi two Rashis (signs) are given the name of
Dagdha Rashis and on some Tithis four Rashis(signs) fall under the
classification of Dagdha Rashis(signs). On Poornima and Amavasya no Rashi is
Dagdha Rashi(sign). The precise significance of Dagdha is smoldered.
These
Dagdha Rashis give either magnificent or most exceedingly awful results under
specific conditions.
It is always good if this Dagdha Rashi(sign) falls in a Trik Bhava
( 6,8,12 houses), since a negative Rashi falling in a negative Bhava/house will
give good results.
• In case either of the Dagdha Rashi(sign) falls in a good
Bhava/house, it is certain to spoil some good qualities of the concerned
Bhava/house.
• Apart from Sun and Moon, every planet has ownership over two
Rashis (signs) and the Rashi (sign), which is Dagdha, suffers and not the other
sign owned by the same planet.
• If a benefic planet is posited in Dagdha Rashi (sign) at the same
time it is in retrograde motion, it will give excellent results during its
period, or sub period. But in case this benefic happens to be in its direct
motion it will give worst results in its period or sub period. Up to some
extent this rule is valid during transit also.
• If a malefic planet is posited in a Dagdha Rashi (sign) but in its
direct motion it will give excellent results during its period and its sub
period. But in case this malefic happens to be in its retrograde motion, it
will give worst results during its period and sub period. Again up to some
extent this rule applies during transit also.
• Since Rahu’s(north node) and Ketu’s (south node)natural motion is
retrograde only and they never move in a direct motion, therefore placement of
these two planets in a Dagdha Rashi (sign) will always give excellent results
during their periods and sub period. But out of the two, Rahu will give much
better results as compared to Ketu.
• In case a Dagdha Rashi (sign) is occupied by two planets, out of
which one is malefic and other is benefic and this malefic is in direct motion
and the benefic in a retrograde motion, in such a case in one planet’s major
period the sub period of other planet will give excellent result.
In case, as
per rules if malefic is in its direct motion and the benefic is retrograde, a
major period is that of malefic planet” will give excellent results, but as and
when the sub period of benefic runs it will give bad results and vice versa.
• The sun and the moon, being luminaries and having only direct
motion are exempted from the rules mentioned above.
