It's SATURDAY - We are back w/ Astrological study for our reader-Shiva or Vishnu - Who is with You??

Once a great Astrologer came up with a great concept that the world is divided into two types of people:

Shiva palit jataka

Vishnu Palit jataka

The learned man described that Sun, Moon, Mars, Jupiter form one group belongs to Vishnu Palita or Upasak

And Venus, Mercury and Saturn fall in another group which belongs to Shiva Palit.

Lagnas belonging to Leo, Cancer, Pisces, Sagittarius, Scorpio and Aries are Vishnu Palita.

  • Lagnas belonging to Gemini, Virgo, Taurus, Libra, Aquarius and Capricorn come under Shiva Palita.

◼Shiva Palita are blessed with ample of wealth, luxuries and are inclined to material happiness and basically pray Lord Shiva, Parvati, Shakti, Bhairav etc

◼Vishnu Palita people are into knowledge, bhakti, vairagya ,intellectual pursuits, struggling and poor.

If a Shiva Palita native is suffering and wants to come out of his sufferings, he must do prayers to Shiva only then he will get riches fame, however hard he tries to please Vishnu and other linked Deities he would never get results. So such people if they want riches and fame they should appease non Vaishnav deities.

Similarly, if Vishnu Palit native is suffering due to Prarabdha, if by any chance he is visiting Shakti temples or Shiva temples, these will never be rewarded with results instead his sufferings will increase. But on the contrary if he resorts to VIshnu Aradhana, he will prosper instantly.

Shiva Palita natives have Chakras rising from Mooladhar to Sahasrar Vishnu Palita natives have flow of chakras from Sahasrar to Mooladhar.


It was an interesting research though but I did not find any supportive testimony to accept it, neither did the gentleman tried to give one. But he was so firm in his belief, that just a look on the horoscope and he would ask the people to discontinue their Vishnu Aradhana or Shiva Aradhana.

His belief fortified when a big bureaucrat working in Mantralay who was chanting Vishnu mantra for 12 years could not get success and went to this Astrologer. He said “you are Gemini rising Vishnu will not listen to you, you must resort to Panchakshari.” That person accepted his words and suddenly next year he accomplished his desire and thanked the Astrologer. Second came a Vedanti he was practising intense Yoga, But could not enter the Sahasrar for five years. His energies would lapse back into mooladhar as he forced his way to Sahasrar. The Astrologer said, “you are Vishnu palita your mode of practise is wrong , go perform Hanuman Seva for 48 days, you will enter Sahasrar.” He agreed and then he was successful.

All these and several other cases made him believe intensely in his theory. So I thought to give it a study.

The basis would render a simple division of humanity into two parts , just on the basis of Lagna . Not acceptable as there are many Vishnu bhaktas with lagna in Mithuna or vrishabha kumbha and they are intensely devotional.

The research can be more termed as success in Upasana or spirituality of a person.

◼NO text attributes worship on the basis of Lagna. Upasana is studied from 5th house, 12th house.

◼Worship is studied from Amatya karak.

◼Also 5th from Atma karak.

◼Upasana is also studied from Vimshamsa and chaturvimshamsa.


Malefics in Puranas are known to resort to SHiva and never to Vishnu o But attaining this distinction on mere Lagna ownership cannot be justified because that would render all malefic owned Lagnas ineffective for VIshnu Bhakti and vice versa . This research makes sense but where to draw distinction is only difficult but defibitely lagna in rashi cannot form such distinction o Let us examine some alternates. •


The Navamsa in the horoscope is divided into Dev, Manushya and Rakshasa category.

But I have found most devoted also coming under the Rakshsas category in Navamsa.

So Navamsha can say which root the soul belongs to, but cannot declare him to be anti shiva or anti Vishnu, as Prahlad being Rakshasa was a known Vishnu devotee.

Jayant a Devata has gone against Ram.

The Drekkana gives three distinction of Narada, Agastya and Doorvasa - denoting, Bhakti Yoga , Gnyana Yoga and Karma Yoga.


The Akshavedamsha gives the distinction of native on the basis of Vishnu, Shiva and Bramha, but all Shiva devotees did not show their Lagna falling under shiva nor did Vishnu devotees have their Lagnas falling under Vishnu Amsha.

Bramha Amsha is an addition here.

By far this is the closest in accepting the theory but theory need modification and has to take into account the fact that humanity can be divided into Vishnu Palit, Bramha Palit, Shiva Palit

But the onus of distinction should depending on the Lagna, Sun, Moon, Atma Karak and other special Lagna

Finally Parashar muni says there are four types of people based on Ascendant - Uttam , Madhyam , Adham and Udaseenam.

This is based on planets in Udayarashi, Shodashamsha divides Lagna into Bramha, Vishnu, Shiva and Surya Amsha. Shodashamsha is more concerned with happiness of the People.

Everyone should take this as just a study and not as conclusive theory, Wait an Watch our another blogs in conclusion and predictions with remedies.
