Parivesha

Jyotisha

Parivesha is the third of the Sun-derived upagrahas: add 180 degrees to Vyatipata and the result is Parivesha, the halo round the sun. It is malefic and is read as the affliction of the bhava it falls in, the classical texts calling it extremely inauspicious.

A note on this entry

BPHS ch. 25 calls this point Paridhi rather than Parivesha, and both names are current - the corpus notes the variant rather than choosing one. It is always exactly opposite Vyatipata, so a chart with one has the other in the facing house, which is why the two are usually read together.
