House Sale Decision (Marutheeru 1965) — A4-A8 Exchange, Narayana Dasha Scorpio, Venus TP Window (July-August) & D20 Ishtadevata
Female chart (Nov 11, 1965, Marutheeru; Jupiter in lagna = lagna lord = 7th lord → Drisaptasamadasha applicable). Question: sell house now or wait until next year? D4 (Chaturthamsa): A4 in 8th house + A8 in 4th house = Arudha exchange → almost guaranteed change of residence. "A4 in 8th or 12th = high chance of change of residence." Ketu in 4th house of D4 = sudden unexpected event for residence. Saturn (A4 lord) in 8th from A4 = instability confirmed. Venus antardasha = clincher: 4th lord in 6th + A11 lord in 9th + Mercury (8th lord = change) = sell in this period. Narayana Dasha Scorpio running (2005-2008): current third = Ketu results (instability); next third = Sun results (Maraka from A4) → both support moving. Tithi Pravesh: Venus dasha window = July-August of current year. After selling: move to apartment temporarily. Next year TP: Gajakesari yoga in lagna (Moon+Jupiter) + A9 in lagna = lucky year to BUY new house; February-April or August-September window. D20: Atmakaraka Moon in 8th house of D20 = excellent for spiritual seeker; Ishtadevata: 12th from AK Moon in D9 = Venus = Ishtadevata.
"When A4 is in the 8th and A8 is in the 4th — the lords of both those houses together confirm the change. Sell in the Venus antardasha this year, July-August. Then buy next year when Gajakesari is in the annual lagna."

Chart Analysis — House Sale Decision
Chart: Female, November 11, 1965, 7:57 PM IST, Marutheeru (81°44'E, 16°38'N)
Question: Should she sell her house in Acton now or wait until next year? Husband's workplace has relocated; considering moving closer.
Dasha Selection: Drisaptama Dasha Applicable
- Jupiter in lagna = also 7th lord (7th lord in lagna)
- Drisaptasamadasha (72-year dasha): applicable when Lagna lord = 7th lord or when Lagna lord aspects the 7th or 7th lord aspects lagna
D4 (Chaturthamsa) — House and Property
Current year (TP):
- A4 in 8th house: The Arudha of the 4th house (actual residence as perceived) is in the 8th house → inherently unstable
- A8 in 4th house: Arudha of 8th (sudden change, transformation) in the 4th house
- A4 and A8 exchange positions (each in the other's natural house) → almost guaranteed change of residence; this is a Parivartana-like exchange of Arudha padas
— PVNR"A4 in the 8th or 12th house shows a high chance of change of residence."
- 4th house contains Ketu: sudden/unexpected events relating to residence
- Year ruler: Saturn in the 7th house of D4 (as lagna lord) — Saturn is also A4 lord, and being in 8th from A4, shows instability
Key rule applied:
— PVNR"When A4 is in the 8th and A8 is in the 4th, the lords of both those houses (Venus and Mercury) are together in the 6th house. Both showing instability confirms the change of residence."
Vimshottari Dasha: Running Saturn-Saturn → Saturn-Mercury coming up
- Mercury: Lagna lord in 12th house → new beginnings; but from A4 he is in trine (not showing instability, shows flourishing where already placed)
- Saturn: A4 lord in 8th from A4 → instability, more conducive to change
- Venus antardasha is the clincher: 4th lord in 6th house, A11 lord in 9th house (A11 = gains from house sale), together with Mercury (8th lord = change)
Narayana Dasha Analysis
- Running: Scorpio dasha (2005–2008 November)
- Division into thirds:
- Current third = middle (results of Scorpio's lord = Ketu): instability, sudden events
- Next third = last (results of Sun: Sun is a Maraka from A4, aspecting 11th from A4) → also shows change of residence
Both thirds of Scorpio dasha support a change of residence.
Tithi Pravesh (Annual Chart) Analysis
Current year TP:
- Year ruler: Saturn → confirms strong Saturn influence
- D4 of TP: A4 in 8th, A8 in 4th (as above) = very strong change indicator
- Dasha sequence: Venus → Sun → Moon
- Venus period: strongest candidate — 4th lord + A11 lord (gains from sale)
- Window: July–August of current year
Next year TP:
- Year ruler: Venus
- Lagna contains Moon + Jupiter = Gajakesari Yoga + A9 in lagna → seen as lucky, fortunate in residence matters
- 4th house: Saturn + Ketu (still showing some instability but lagna lord also present → finding good deal)
- D20: brief review — Atmakaraka Moon in 8th house of D20 = excellent for spiritual practice
Prediction and Advice
- Sell this year, July–August window (Venus dasha in TP, Vimshottari Saturn-Saturn period)
- A11 in 9th from lagna → gains from sale are likely; don't miss this window
- After selling, move into apartment temporarily
- Buy new house next year (February–April or August–September): Gajakesari yoga in TP lagna, lagna lord in 4th house → finding a good house
- Jupiter dasha in next year's TP = strong candidate for new house (Jupiter = 8th lord in lagna in TP, showing transformation/new beginning)
— PVNR"Select a good muhurta to sign the agreement with the real estate agent — that is the most important moment."
Rule re-stated: From A4, if the dasha/antardasha planet is a Maraka (2nd or 7th lord from A4, or 8th lord in 7th from A4), there is a chance of change of residence during that period.
Spiritual Chart Aside (D20 — Vimshamsa)
From the same chart:
- Atmakaraka: Moon (the most-degrees planet)
- Moon in D20: in the 8th house (excellent for a spiritual seeker — access to deeper consciousness)
- Mars dasha coming: Mars = 6th and 11th lord — less spiritually conducive per se, but:
- Mars is dispositor of Ketu (lagna lord in D20 = Mercury, joining Ketu)
- Mercury-Ketu conjunction in chart = affinity to spirituality throughout life
- Ishtadevata: 12th from Atmakaraka in D9 = 12th from Moon in Navamsa → Venus → Ishtadevata is Venus
