Superimposition
of stellar classification on average 27-day cyclic variations of geomagnetic
index Kp:......
We have taken the average variation of electromagnetic disturbances expressed by Kp by Sinno. K(1964), which has been supported by works of number of later workers and reproduced by T. Obayashi (The Interaction of the Solar wind with the Geo-magnetic Field During Disturbed Condition -Solar Terrestrial Physics. 1967. P. 116) and upon which the stellar classification of the Varahamihira of the Naksatra karmagunadhaya chapter from his book Vrihadsamhita has been superimposed. Each day in the 27-day solar cycle has been alloted consecutive numbers from 1 to 27; and the 27 stars named in Varahamihira's work are given continuous number according to their recognised positions in the naksatra series (Aswini-1 Revati -27), and also a letter from the English alphabet to denote its class.
Dhruba -D, Tixna-T; Ugra-U; Chara-C; Laghu-L; Mridu-tixna -Mt and Mridu -M.
As for example Mt-16 will denote the Naksatra occupying the 16th position in the Naksatra series, namely Visakha and it belongs to the Mridu-tixna class representing the nature of activities which the Mridu-tixna class of Naksatras are supposed to patronize.
As the number of days in the solar electromagnetic variation cycle and the number of Naksatras are exactly the same, by the process of 'sliding, or trial and error method, just like synchronizing gear and pinions having irregular teeth, its two teeth fall in their 'true positions', rest of the teeth will get automatically adjusted in their proper places.
The selection of the 'first day' in a 27-day solar energy cycle had to be arbitrary, whereas the first Naksatra in the series will depend upon the historical period when the series is formulated (due to shifting of days of Vernal equinox). While correlating the Sinno's (1964) 27-day solar series with Varahamihira's 27 Naksatra series by trial and error method, it was found that the 'first day' will correspond with the Bharani Naksatra, occupying 2nd position in the Naksatra series. DIAGRAM - 1
Average 27-day variations of geomagnetic index Kp during the period November 1962 -May 1963 (Sinno, 1964 as reprinted by T. Obayashi -1967 -letters are ours; (Numerals at the bottom denote serial positions of indivisual Naksatra and also days in a 27-day solar cycle. Letters on the top denote classes of Naksatra.
D.are the Dhruba class, namely Rohini, Uttaraphalguni, Uttarashada and Uttaravadrapada. Their serial positions in the Naksatra series are 4, 12, 21 and 26th. When the Moon is observed near any of these Naksatras, the day is considered to be auspicious to commence with work such as foundation of a new town, plantations, coronation, religious festivities etc. (Varahamihira) requiring meticulous planning and sustained energy. These are the very same days when the electromagnetic disturbances are found to be minimum in the 27-day solar energy cycle.
L- Laghu, U-Ugra, MT-Mridu-tixna, D-Dhruba, M-Mridu, T-Tixna, C-Chara classes of Naksatra.
The effect of superimposition is shown in the Diagram 1 and the result is self-evident. Correspondence of numerals does not carry any meaning as it has been arranged deliberately. The height of the vertical lines in the Sinno's diagram indicate the intensity of electromagnetic disturbances. The Naksatra number designated by us to specify the position of that Naksatra in the Naksatra series, and the letter will denote the class to which the naksatra belongs and the nature of the ventures that class of Naksatras patronizes.
A close scrutiny of correlation between the Naksatras with the energy regime of the day gives following percentage of correspondence. Table>> more
The Mridu-tixna class carries special importance as it shows "Misra phalani", which can be translated as 'mixed', compound, composite or hybrid. Parasara termed this class as 'Sadharana' (ordinary or average) and described in greater detail as "mriduni darunani karmani kuryat' which means functions alloted to Daruna (Tixna) and Mridu class of Naksatras are doable (practicable) -that is war and friendship; murder and merriment; marriage and revenge etc. functions which are contrary in nature having conflicting aims.
From the data colected by Mariner -2. 1964, August to November, Coleman and others (1966) noticed that there is a change in field orientation (polarity) every 12th and 15th day. The Naksatras indicating contrast are 3rd and 16th having a gap of 13 and 14 days between them.
The incredulous amongst us will find impropriety in alotment of 'arbitrary energy regime' to different functions declaring it to be subjective. Even if we withdraw the whole proposal, the most diehard sceptic cannot refute that the sequential position alloted to the Dhruba class of Naksatras (4, 12, 21, 26) are exactly the same as sequential positions of the days of least geomagnetic disturbances. The same principle of correspondence is more or less applicable to other classes also exept the Chara class, and the Chara class was recognized as erratic.
If one examines the statistical probability of getting the correspondence we have obtained by superimposing Varahamihira's stellar classification on Sinno's average geo-magnetic disturbances generated by the 27-day long solar energy cycle with the process of random selection(chance) the results will be startling.
1. The Dhruba Naksatras 4, 12, 21 and 26
being considered as a member of a single group should show either
'high'or 'low' geomagnetic disturbance days (on the system of yes-no
or 'black or white' value attribution with equal probability. We have
considered D as 'low' but it can be also given 'high' value still
the result would be same).
