How many of vedic astrology gurus here believe in "ardh" kalsarpa, i.e. when just one planet (generally moon) is out of Rahu-Ketu nexus?
Have read a few books that give prominence to ardh kalsarpa yog, but many books completely deny any effect/existence of this yoga.

Hi Pilgrim ji,
Whom do you mean by Astrology gurus ..If you mean Sages who wrote Classics then Kalsarpa(leave apart ArdhKalsarpa yoga) is not part of any
of the classics..Infact if i am not wrong Kalsarpa yoga came into being as part of unwritten rule book after 1930s only
and astrologers started following it more like a rule lately.

I am not denying or accepting its effect on the native i am just telling you that its not part of any of the classics(as per my knwoledge)

Can you share where you read about Ardhkarsarpa yoga or Partial Kalsarpa Yoga.

Regards,

there is no validity for kalsarp yoga. its not mentioned in ancient texts. also B.V.raman said it is crap.

astrologers are minting money with this stupid stuff

please dont be kalsarp in this forum

Can I ask why this drastic change in your words? I often come across in your posts  guiding native's with Rahu dosh or  KSY to Visit  Kaal  Hasthi temple., near Tirumala.  Can  U fully deny this ,  it is not present in your chart too ?

It is true that none of Ancient Classics talk of kal sarpa yoga, atleast the ones that I have studied - Saravali and Hora Shastra.
But many modern astrology scholdars like Pt PS Shastri ji have mentioned this yoga in many shlokas.

This yoga has come into prominence in relatively modern times, but there are many evidences to support its effect. And yes, evidential proofs are always 2-way swords. They can always be used to prove otherwise also.

My little experience with astrology makes me believe in this yoga. But still it is hard to prove or disprove its existence. So, I would really like to hear more views of learned members of this forum on this matter.
