My friend AV Sundaram very kindly shared a nadi technique (Jyothida kana kanda) for those who

want to know how 2015 will be. It is what he called a "mini dasa" for the new year. My sense of this
is that the year lord will help to condition one's mind for the year so will be king of the year, so to
speak.
Count from your birth star (nakshatra) to the nakshatra of the Moon at sunrise in your locale on
January 1. Multiply that sum by 7 and then divide that amount by 9. The remainder is the number
you will use to determine the year lord (starting dasa). This is based on 360 day year
REMINDER--DASA--DAYS.(approx)
1 SUN 18
2 MARS 21
3 JUP. 48
4 KET. 21
5 MER. 51
6 VEN. 60
7 SAT. 57
8 MOON 30
0 RAHU. 54
TOTAL...360 DAYS.
Example (I calculated in the wrong direction before and Robert Koch kindly helped me correct it, so
please Robert, let me know is this is not correct now)...birth star of USA Kelleher chart is
Shatabhisha. Year 2015 starting star is Krittika (i.e., Moon is in Krittika nakshatra in Washington DC
at sunrise on Jan. 1 2015). Counting from Shatabisha to Krittika we get 7. So then 7 X 7 = 49 divided
by 9 gives remainder of 4 which is Ketu. Then we have to apply all the usual results for the graha's
natural and temporal significations to see what that might mean. Ketu rules the year and in USA
Kelleher chart is in 2H in Capricorn. Hmmm...what might this indicate for the economy, I wonder?
Hope you all have a wonderful new year and enjoy this technique from the great AV Sundaram.
