With lock down fever reaching a frenzy, the mind was racing for some action albeit of a different kind. Some music based quizzes were conducted and then the thought came as to why not extend the principles to Astrology also and hence these trivia based quizzes ended up taking shape. This is largely based on basics of Divisional Charts and also provides a feeble opportunity to sharpen the skills in trying to derive the answer. It is more about using deductive methodologies to figure out which Planet is being referred and the Nakshatra space of the zodiac that the planet is placed in.
So here goes. Time for some trivia in the days of Quarantine. Let's see who strikes gold 🏆
Rack your brains and find out Which Planet Am I and also the Nakshatra that I'm actually placed in the rasi chart? 🏹🎲⚽🎱🥅🏓
Set of Clues:
A) I'm placed in the sign of Scorpio in Navamsa (D9)
B) I get myself into Suns territory of Leo in Hora (D2)
C) I jump into a watery sign in the Drekkana (D3)
D) I go to that spot in Taurus where fellow Navagraha mate Moon gets exalted in Chaturthamsa (D4)
E) I am placed in the middle zone in Rasi Chart (D1) within 10° to 20° and not in a Mercurial sign
F) I don't own any of the signs that I've mentioned above and also I am not a node (Common)
Answer to Trivia:
Planet : Saturn
Scorpio in D9 is ruled by Mars so that gets eliminated. Hora ruler is Sun so we strike that also off. Also it's mentioned that planet goes to Taurus in D4 whose ruler is Venus so that's also not correct. It's also mentioned that it's not the nodes hence both Rahu & Ketu are off the list. Additionally it's said that it's not a ruler of a water sign. We know the 3 water signs are Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces ruled by Moon, Mars and Jupiter so all these get ruled out. Also it's not in a Mercurial sign. Hence finally we are left with the big boss Sir Saturn. Hence Saturn is the answer 😀.
Nakshatra : Anuradha - 4
Coming to the Nakshatra, if a planet sits in Scorpio in Navamsa the mind should immediately correlate that it can only be a Venus, Mars or Saturn Nakshatra. All other planets are ruled out. Now within these 3, it's specifically mentioned that placement is between 13°20' to 16°40' which automatically rules out the Mars Nakshatras since it's always between 23°20' to 6°40' in next sign. So now it's a battle between Venus and Saturn. The next thing to note is in Drekkana D3 chart, planets will always sit in same triplicity or in effect 1,5,9 from rasi chart. It's said that it's a water element in D3 so it automatically ensures that it should be a water sign in D1 also. We know that all Venus Nakshatras sit in fire signs and all Saturn Nakshatras only sit in water signs and hence Venus gets voted out. Now among the Saturn Nakshatras of Pushya, Anuradha and Uttara Bhadrapada which one is it could be a point to ponder. Here the basics of D4 come in handy. Like in D3 chart which ends up always falling in the same element as the Rasi chart (1,5,9 or Fire/Earth/Air/Water signs), in D4 chart planets will always end up being in a kendra or square placement from rasi chart. (Movable in D1 means Movable in D4, Fixed in D1 means Fixed in D4 and Dual in D1 means Dual in D4). Hence only for Anuradha Nakshatra placed in Scorpio in a fixed sign, Taurus will also be a kendra in fixed sign whereas for both Pushya and Uttara Bhadra, sign of Taurus in D4 explicitly indicates that it won't end up being in a kendra. Hence finally we derive that Anuradha is the Nakshatra. Anuradha runs from 3°20' to 16°40' but it's said that it's in middle zone from 10° to 20°, so first 2 padas automatically are crossed out. Also to fall in Sun's hora it needs to cross 15° which obviously means Pada 3 also goes out from the equation. Hence Anuradha Pada 4 is the final correct answer 😊.
