Are The Lucky Really Lucky? Think Of This Little Fable.

March 30, 2012 in Vedic Astrology

An old man lived all alone and had no one to ask him even whether he was dead or alive. He survived on memories of the good old days and the time that he had spent with his family. One day while exploring the forest he found an immaculate horse grazing leisurely. The horse had such a stunning appearance that the old man was compelled to stop. He sat to observe this aesthetically crafted creation of God. He patted the majestic horse and the horse responded affectionately. He was surprised to find the good looking horse following him to his door step. He arranged water for the gorgeous horse and got what he knew the horses like. He slept dreaming about the good looking horse. Next morning he was surprised that the horse had not moved from his door step. He rode the horse and it was a wonderful ride. He went deep into the forest and covered great distances to locate the owner but no luck. With the attention and affection that the old man gave the horse started to become more and more beautiful. The old man came to be known as the proud owner of lovely horse. People requested rides on the attractive horse and he obliged. He earned from the rides. From an unfortunate old man be became a fortunate horse owner. People called him lucky for they knew the horse came from his destiny. One morning the horse disappeared. He waited for hours, and then days, weeks and months passed. The horse had simply vanished. People enquired and sympathized with him. He was sad and became sadder and weaker than ever before. Were they right or were they wrong he thought, in consoling him for he thought everything seemed arranged and predestined. It is sequence of events that unfold, he told himself.

Will Mars And Sun Wake India From The Slumber Of Venus

March 30, 2012 in Vedic Astrology

Where is my real self and can my credit card buy a new me?

Are we being watched and judged?  Can we escape our immoral deeds? Will retribution come in this life? These are some of the questions that haunt the conscientious in kaliyuga and cause stress. We are assessed by our neighbors on the façade of our house, the behavior of our children, the car we drive and the visitors we receive. Similar assessments are made wherever we may be- in office, in the club or the neighborhood park. This prompts a tendency to project ourselves as larger than we actually are. We go for beauty aids and expensive clothes, swiping credit cards; and borrow funds for the car we can ill afford. We are encouraged to do this even more when our posture gets a positive feedback from society. It improves our reputation and goodwill. We do this with  rooms in our workplace, our business, our possessions, and in fact with everything that impacts our image. It is the interface between us and society that matters. It takes us to places we envy and gives us in excess of our wants. But not without stress and tension.

Dating With Dates. A Mania Of A Different Kind

March 30, 2012 in Vedic Astrology

The fascination for numbers and dates is perhaps as old as the evolution of Man. Animals too have the sense of numbers for they certainly keep a count of their children and siblings. The camel who roams in the waterless desert for days surely assesses the water stored in his body and perhaps creates a numerical value for it. Does human counting do more harm than good? Most of the counts we engage ourselves in cause mental stress and suffering. Count your age, you can at best get to 122, the age of the world’s oldest person. The number for average longevity scares you. Counting money makes you envious of the wealth of others, which results in frustration. Waiting and counting is worse.

“Marize Ishq se waida kar gaye 5 din ka kisi se sun liya hoga ki zindagi 4 din ki hai”. 
( The lover promised 5 days of love, perhaps knowing life itself would last 4 days)

Counting scares you and makes you think you may not get the most desired and the most cherished.

The Bulging Jupiter Of Kaliyuga Moves From Capricorn To Aquarius On December 20th, 2009

March 30, 2012 in Vedic Astrology

Did you know of a fountainhead of blessings eternally spouting goodness?  It seeks the deprived and has loads and loads of happiness, wealth, knowledge and bonanzas stored for all. It is of course the most benefic planet, Jupiter, that showers blessings always. The flow is unending but needs to be harnessed and harvested. Jupiter as the giver sits in the skies but as takers we have to be deserving to maintain its flow or else the bulge of Jupiter will simply expand with goodwill and we will remain dry of its munificence.

Rahu-Ketu Now On Saggitarius/Gemini Axis

March 30, 2012 in Vedic Astrology

November began with a change that occurs every one and a half years- the shift of a sign by Rahu-Ketu on 2nd November. The mention of Rahu-Ketu brings images of something wicked, weird, witchy, perhaps from wonderland. Something detestable and negative. The image of a monstrous dragon from China perhaps, for Rahu-Ketu are also called Dragon’s head and Dragon’s tail. Something mysterious and cruel – the image of a dragon chopped in half, still alive, and slithering to take revenge with a jaw eager to bite and a tail whose wag could cause fatal damage. This illusion, scares the victims, particularly of `Kaal Sarpa Dosha’, visualized, conceived, devised, designed, produced, spread and marketed by the Ponga Pandits.

The Season

March 30, 2012 in Vedic Astrology

The second month of Sarat Ritu begins from 23rd September while Hemant Ritu commences from October 23rd. We run out of excuses of very hot, very cold or rainy. The near perfect weather emboldens one to venture out and get attracted to festivities, merry making and partying as it is the carnival season that has arrived. A unanimous yes is the immediate response to ideas of going out, feeling the weather and enjoying it in full swing. Perhaps, this is the cause for denser traffic jams during this season. Some negatives are sure to attach themselves to positives in everything one can think of and the reason is that you have a mix of malefic and benefic planets to govern you . Diwali sweets are sweet  but not at all sweet are these jams as they sap off your preserved energy and time. Nevertheless, the season is to act and react.

Independence Or More? How Far Away Are We From Astro-governance?

March 30, 2012 in Vedic Astrology

When we read an individual horoscope, the set of predictions we whip up at best benefit a limited few the individual and close ones in his orbit. Mundane predictions, however, when undertaken painstakingly and constructively have the potential to help society at large, and in turn impact nations and all humanity. If the credibility of these predictions rises in the popular perception, a day could dawn when astrological considerations are officially applied to plan national affairs: a re-emergence perhaps, of the times of Vikramaditya and Varahamihira, when  astrologers  commanded  the respect that the  Abdul Kalams of today do.
