When I was asked to edit a book on Mundane Astrology, I was hesitant as it has been some years since I worked on it. Nevertheless, I took it up and am so happy that I didn’t pass the opportunity else I would have had great regrets for the rest of my life. It was a blessing in disguise since I got answers to several questions that have been nagging me.
Prabodhji has beautifully woven the effects and timing of events from eclipses. I had always heard that when you have 3 or more eclipses in quick succession, it portends evil for the country or the king or rulers in that year. Prabodhji has very immaculately deciphered the nature of the event, the location of the event and the timing of the event almost accurately to the day. His use of the various Chakras like SBC, Sanghatta, Kota brings out the nuances in understanding the various effects of an eclipse. Prabodhji has clearly depicted that the eclipse acts a seed to blossom into various events which can be calculated precisely to the day. I was astonished to find that the seeds sown matures into full blown events -both favourable and unfavourable over several years and not just in immediate future. Prabhodhji has used the Outer planets extensively in his analysis and illustrated that the outer planets play a very major and crucial role. It is evident that the combinations present at the time of an eclipse portend a series of events which one can predict and verify for oneself. Prabodhji has taken the main combinations to elucidate the main events.
I had wanted to make a few changes in the order of cases exhibited for better reading but agreed to go with the flow of the author as he felt that it was written the way it occurred to him. The book uses only North Indian style chart which can prove difficult for Astrologers who use the South Indian chart style.
He has virtually explained all the major events in Indian History & some major global phenomena. I strongly recommend this book to all lovers of Astrology who want to decipher effects of eclipses in particular. This book can act as a ready reckoner for what the Future holds for us if one foIIows his method sincerely.
I urge Prabodhji to unravel more pearls of wisdom from his quiver. The author owes that much to the world Last but not the least to his friend who took great pains to translate the entire work into English from the musings and scribblings of Prabodhji. My work was made so much simpler because of his translation.
I am sure, Prabodhji will disappoint us and I am ready to edit is next book.
