Comment: In western astrology a lot is written about simple planet-to-planet conjunctions. Chawdhri gives an in-depth look at those, as well as conjunctions involving up to seven plants. Conjunctions that vary according to the house the planets are in, vary according to aspects made by other planets elsewhere in the chart, etc. He lists the differences between western & Hindu aspects: Conjunctions are aspects in western astrology, but not Hindu. Westerns compute aspects by degree, Hindus by sign. In western astrology trines & sextiles are always easy, squares & oppositions always stressful. Hindu astrology has no such classification. In Hindu astrology, aspects of benefic planets are always good, malefic planets always bad. Whether benefic or malefic, if a planet aspects its own house, he strengthens it & does no harm. Aspects of lords of good houses (5, 9 & kendras) are good, whereas aspects from lords of evil houses (6, 8, 12) are evil.
