What is Lal Kitab Astrology?
Lal Kitab literally means the A Red Book and is said to be a set of five books on Hindu astrology and palmistry, written in the Urdu language in the 19th Century. Lal Kitab astrology is based on the Samudrika Shastra.
The Lal Kitab contains poetic verses on philosophy; nuances etc. form the upayas or farmanns, i.e. recommended remedies. It is also believed to have origins in Persian literature and astrology. In fact, through its origins, it has led to the creation of a new field of Lal Kitab remedies. These remedies are simple in nature and very beneficial for planetary afflictions in one’s natal chart or horoscope. Over the years, Lal Kitab Astrology has become a part of the folklore of the regions of Northern Indian and Pakistan.
When moon is in the 1st house for a native, it is evident that he/she will be someone who clearly reveals all emotions. This is credited to the fact that the Moon is actually representative of imagination as well as feelings. If you are such a native, there is every likelihood that you will not be very toned down or laidback. You tend to speak what you feel and often ignore the consequences of such dare. Depending on the situation, this might be either positive or something that causes trouble. Aries is the main ruler sign for those with moon in 1st house.
Features of Lal Kitab Astrology
Lal Kitab is a very easy book in relation to astrology by which a normal person can also examine his horoscope according to the circumstances around him, and can make the planets conducive with simple measures. The rules of Vedic astrology is completely different from the rules of Vedic astrology. For example, Lagna is given the highest regard in Vedic astrology and at the time of birth, the amount raised on the eastern horizon is written in Lagna Bhaaw. But in Lal Kitab, nothing happens like this. In it, the Bhaaw of kundali remains constant as Kaal Purush Kundali. For example, according to Vedic astrology if a person is born in Sagittarius Lagna, then his birth chart will be written in Sagittarius first which is Lagna Bhaaw aswell. But it will not be the same in the Lal Kitab. According to the Lal Kitab, First house or Lagna house will be written in Aries and in that sequence, Sagittarius will be marked in the ninth house. Apart from this, there is also a different opinion about the planets and the Lal Kitab horoscope which is also called teva. According to this, word like pakka ghar, a position of the sleeping planet (soya hua grah), the sleeping position of bhaaw or house (soya hua bhaaw ya ghar), companion planets or blind teva, religious teva and navalik teva are also used, which has highest importance according to Lal Kitab. Come let's know about these words in detail.
