Birth of Children – Predict Timing of Children

The timing of children is predicted by understanding how your MahaDasha Lord (MDL) and Chara Dasha (CD) are making a connection with your children indicators. Also, the transits of Jupiter and Saturn narrow down the time period within nine months. The Children Indicators in the Parashara System (MahaDasha Lord) and Jaimini (Chara Dasha) must be occurring simultaneously for the birth of children to take place.

Parashara System – Children Indictors

In the Parashara system, the planets are used to make predictions. The children indicators in the Parashara system are the Lagna, Lagna Lord, 5th House, 5th Lord, 9th House, 9th Lord, or Jupiter. You must study the connection with your Mahadasha Lord (MDL) and the children indicators mentioned. The connection can occur with position, aspect, or conjunction in the Birth Chart (D1) Navamsha (D9), or Saptamsha (D7) charts.

1. Jupiter is the natural karaka of children for both men and women. Anytime you go through the Main Period and Subperiod (Dasha) of Jupiter the birth of children is highly possible. Many women become pregnant in their Jupiter Dasha.
2. Your 5th House is the significator of children (especially your 1st child). Anytime you go through a Dasha of a planet positioned in your 5th house birth of children can occur.
3. Your 5th Lord is also used to predict children. When you run the Main Period or Sub Period of the 5th lord or planets connected with the 5th lord the birth of children can take place.
4. Your 9th House is 5th from the 5th. The 9th house not only signified your grandchildren but your potential to have children.   When you run the Main Period or Sub Period of the 9th house or planets connected with the 9th house birth of children can take place. The 9th house is also a significator of your 2nd Child.
5. Your 9th Lord is another child activator. Anytime you go through the Main Period or Sub period of the 9th lord or a Dasha connected with the 9th lord through placement, aspects, or conjunction the birth of a child is possible.
6. A Planet 5th from MDL can also bring children. Anytime there is a planet in the 5th house from your MDL the birth of children is likely.
7. The Lagna and Lagna Lord can activate the birth of children. This is because your physical body is used to create children; therefore, the Lagna and Lagna Lord are related to your body. Anytime you go through the main period and sub-period of your Lagna Lord or planet in your Lagna childbirth can take place.

 

Birth of Children Timing Jaimini System

The Jaimini system is sign-based. In the Jaimini system, the zodiac signs are mainly used to make predictions. When you are running the zodiac signs of one of the twelve houses, it is considered your Chara Dasha (CD). You must study the connections through placement, aspect, or conjunction with your Jaimini children activators. The Jaimini children activators are Jupiter, Putrakaraka, 5th House Pada, and Two signs in a 1-5 axis (five houses from each other. The connections are studied in the Birth Chart (D1) Navamsha (D9), and Saptamsha (D7) charts.

1. Jupiter is the natural karaka of children even in the Jaimini system. Anytime you run your Chara Dasha (zodiac signs) that has Jupiter positioned in it, the birth of children occurs.
2. Putrakaraka is the planet with the 5^th highest degree. The Putrakaraka is the signification of the 5^th house and relates to your children. Anytime you run your Chara Dasha of the Putrakaraka the birth of children is possible.
3. The 5th house Pada is associated with your 5th house and falls in a particular zodiac sings. When you go through the Chara Dasha that relates to the 5th house Pada children are born. Your 5th house Pada is calculated in your astrology birth chart report.
4. Two Signs in a 1 – 5 axis can bring the birth of children. If you are running the Chara Dasha of two zodiac signs that are in a 1 – 5 axis (five houses from each other) the birth of children takes place.

Transit of Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, and Moon

Planetary transits can narrow down the timeframe before the birth of a child. The transit of Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, and Moon must all be occurring simultaneously along with the Parashara and Jaimini ‘children indicators’ to predict childbirth. All planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, and Moon) must have a connection with the 5th house, 5th lord, 9th house, or 9th lord.

Jupiter & Saturn Transit – 9 Month Before Birth Of Child

For the birth of children to occur Jupiter and Saturn must have a connection with the 5th house, 5th lord, 9th house, or 9th lord within nine months before the birth of a child. The transit can current Direct or Retrograde. If one or both of the planets (Jupiter or Saturn) is in retrograde the transit is counted from the previous house. Pregnancy can be determined by using this formula. This narrows the prediction of the birth of a child within 9th months before it occurs.

Mars Transits – 75 Days Before Birth of Child

Mars has to have a connection with the 5th house, 5th lord, 9th house, or 9th lord 75 days before the birth of your child. Mars narrows the prediction of the birth of a child within 2 months before it occurs.

Moon Transits – 2 Days Before Birth of Child

Moon has to have a connection with the 5th house, 5th lord, 9th house, or 9th lord 72 hours before the birth of your child. Moon narrows the prediction of the birth of a child within 3 days before it occurs.

Karmic Potential for Having Children

You must have the karmic potential in your chart to have children. To know your karmic potential, you must evaluate the 5th house, 5th Lord, 9th house, 9th Lord in both chart (D1) and the Saptamsha (D7) chart. The planets and lord on these houses should have very little afflictions.

Kshetra Sphuta and Beeja Sphuta

The Kshetra Sphuta (for females) and Beeja Sphuta (for males) is a measurement of your conception abilities. The term Kṣetra means “field” or womb of a woman and Beeja means “seed” or the sperm of a male. Therefore, the is the Kshetra Sphuta is the womb of a woman and the Beeja Sphuta is the sperm of a male.

It is studied whether the Kshetra Sphuta or Beeja Sphuta falls in an even or odd sign. Please note this is an old system before the advancement of medicine. If your Kshetra Sphuta or Beeja Sphuta is unfavorable (issues) the advancement in medical science and chants (prayers) are used for conception. Table 1.1 provides conception potential for women and men based on if the Kshetra or Beeja Sphuta is in an odd or even sign. Your Kshetra Sphuta or Beeja Sphuta is calculated in your astrology birth chart report.

Table 1.1 Potential for Conceiving Children.

1. The even signs are Taurus (2) Cancer (4) Virgo (6) Scorpio (8) Capricorn (10) & Pisces (12)
2. The odd signs are Gemini (3), Leo (5) Libra (7) Sagittarius (9), and Aquarius (11)

Moon is a significator of motherhood and Mars is related to the menstrual cycle of women. For women, your Kshetra Sphuta is automatically calculated in your Vedic Astrology Birth Chart Report. Here is Diana, Princess of Wales Kshetra Sphuta calculations.

Timing of Children Prediction – Cheat Sheet

You can use this ‘Timing of Children Prediction’ cheat sheet to determine when you will have children in your Vedic Astrology Birth Chart Report. You must have basic knowledge on aspects, counting houses, and know how to find your Mahadasha Lord (MDL) and Chara Dasha. Knowing the transits, the transit of Jupiter and Saturn is also essential to narrow down the time frame within 9 months for the birth of a child.

Remember you have to be running simultaneously the MDL (Parashara System), Chara Dasha (Jaimini System) of one of the Children Indicators, and Jupiter and Saturn must have a connection (placement, aspect, conjunction) with the 5th house, 5th lord, 9th house, or 9th lord in your Birth Chart (from the Lagna or Moon) to trigger the birth of a child.
