The Matrix.
Salutation to the Lord Mahakaala and His spouse mahaakaali.

Are Time and Space concepts?
Time and Space are the most basic concepts required for any event to manifest and jyotish is nothing but a study of events.  
Jyotish is a study of the qualities of Spatial Duration defined by the Bhaa Chakra. The Grahas are moving bodies on the Background of the Stars and to this is added the Movement of the Earth (Both Rotation and Revolution- Axial and around Surya).
In Jyotish classical texts and the scriptures of Satya Sanaatana there are mention of two wheels known as the Dik Chakra (Wheel of space) and Kaala Chakra (Wheel of time). The study of both these is essential not only to understand their implications on a Kundali but also to understand the interaction of these two very basic concepts. In fact these two are said to form the basis of many of the observances in the Satya Sanaatana. This is also very important for remedial measures.
We will take up the study of these individually and also see their mutual working.

The Grahas lording over the various directions is shown in the attachment.
Every student of Jyotish should know the  lords of directions at the tip of the tongue.
In The chart Grahas are said to have Dig Bala when placed in certain Kendras. This is based on the Tatwas of the Bhaavas and the Grahas.
!st Bhaava : Guru and Budha. !st Bhaava is taken to be Prithvi and Guru is Aakaasha, Budha is Prithvi.

4th Bhaava : Chandra and Shukra both Jala grahas.

7th Bhaava : Shani because it is Vaayu tatva.

10th Bhaava : Surya and Mangal both Agni Tatva.

This is closely connected to the Dig Chakra and its use as well as application will be shown.

Namaskaar all,
The vertically upward direction (Skywards) is ruled by Ketu and the vertically downward direction (below our feet) is ruled by the Lagna.

In the previous post we did not give the digbala sthanas (places of directional strength) for the nodes (Raahu and ketu).
There is a dictum which states 'Shani vad Raahu' and 'Kuja vad Ketu', which means that Raahu is akin to Shani and Ketu is akin to Mangal (Kuja is anpther name for Mangal). Hence Raahu gets Digbali in the 7th and Ketu gets Digbali in the 10th.

Dear Vivek ji,
Just a thought....
Since Ketu is supposed to be blind and thats y we dont consider its aspect also.
Then dont u think giving a directional strength to Ketu in particular direction is something
unjustified.

Though it is always mentioned that it is akin mars then if we treating it like mars in giving directional strength then y not consider it similarly when it comes to giving aspect.

Thanking you
Raman

Namaskaar Raman ji,
Dristhi and Digbala are two different things and used for different purpose.
Dristhi is desire (We are talking of Graha dristhi here) and Digbala shows the strength of the Graha in a particular Kendra. This shows the direction of life if followed by the native will give her/him blessings of the Graha.
More on this as the lesson unfolds (as usual).
They say for moksha even the desire for moksha should not be there.  
We know this is not a very convincing explanation for now but when the lesson has progressed we hope to have given you much clarity and focus.
