"Shodhya
Pinda" is a term used in Vedic astrology, particularly in Ashtakavarga
calculations. It refers to the process of reducing the Ashtakavarga scores of
planets due to the transit of other planets over them.
The
concept of Shodhya Pinda involves subtracting certain bindus (points) from the
original Ashtakavarga scores of planets based on the transits of benefic and
malefic planets. The purpose is to refine the predictions by considering the
current influence of transiting planets on the natal positions of planets in
the birth chart.
Here's
a simplified explanation of how Shodhya Pinda works:
1. Transiting Planets: Identify the
transiting planets and their positions relative to the natal positions of
planets in the birth chart.
2. Benefic and Malefic Influence: Determine
whether the transiting planets are benefic (favorable) or malefic (unfavorable)
for each natal planet.
3. Bindu Reduction: Subtract bindus from the
original Ashtakavarga scores of planets based on the influence of transiting
planets. Benefic transits typically reduce bindus, while malefic transits
increase bindus.
4. Adjusted Ashtakavarga Scores: After
applying Shodhya Pinda, you'll have the adjusted Ashtakavarga scores for each
planet. These refined scores provide insights into the current influences
affecting the strengths and weaknesses of planets in the birth chart.
The
process of Shodhya Pinda requires a thorough understanding of Ashtakavarga
principles and the effects of planetary transits. It allows astrologers to make
more accurate predictions by considering the dynamic interactions between natal
and transiting planets in the birth chart.
