The Conjunction in Sagittarius/ Dhanu in December, 2010

 

Something has changed in that Dhanu Rashi/ Sagittarius has become populated with three Grahas/ planets. Today, on 7th December, 2010, even the Moon/ Chandra is here.

Dhanu Rashi/ Sagittarius is ruled by the great Jupiter/ Guru and is the Moolatrikona Rashi of the planet. Jupiter gets to work here and this is a dynamic sign where the natural significations of Jupiter attain action and fruition.

In other words, law, deep esoteric thinking, high philosophy, physics, finance, metaphysics, religion, spiritual arts, priestly pursuits and such subjects become active in this sign. The Moon is here joined Mercury/ Budh and Rahu, the North Node of the Moon, along with Mars/ Mangal.

Prior to Mars joining the combination communications attained a quality of infatuation, and exhilaration, qualities of Rahu, communications of course being governed by Mercury. To those generally sedate, or sedated by Karma, such an event might have been relieving but generally speaking there can be something devious and fishy in such communication due to the impact of the debilitated malefic. But the debility/ weakness of Rahu can make deceit transparent and the centre of the plan may not hold.

With Mars having entered the picture, force enters. And in combination with Rahu, it forms a Yoga for battle. Mars is a Deva/ a Sura planet and in Dhanu Rashi will fight the good fight. Even so, there will be an atmosphere of deceitful force prevailing, especially in the written word, and the spoken word. People might need to be careful about their files, and communications, social networking and the like.

The deceit cannot last and the Wikileaks episode, for instance, will finally shed its opacity and the truth will emerge. The Moon gets afflicted with the Mars-Rahu-Mercury conjunction and the sense of moral dignity might be offended for those with strong Jupiterean influences in the nativity/ radix. Jupiter is strong in Pisces/ Meena and aspects the debilitated Rahu and the other Grahas with Rashi Drishti/ sign aspect, thus defeating that which is not ethically good, and right, and constitutes a threat, maybe an empty threat.

There are two ways to conduct oneself, especially those who work with and live with perspective and truth, whether a conventional or an unconventional truth.The first is to act correctly. This sounds too obvious and almost meaningless for that reason but is not so. What is to act correctly can only be indicated by Jupiter and if the planet is strong, the appropriate value system will indicate to the person as to what needs to be done. Non-action is also action in some situations but it needs to be correct. The second way, is the priestly way, since Guru aspects the Yoga from Meena, the sign of emancipation. This can be the chanting of the correct Mantras. Both ways can also be combined.

This is especially true till the Moon is in Sagittarius since its presence lends confirmation to the Yoga, both mental-individual and social.

A BRIEF LOOK AT THE TWELVE LAGNAS/ ASCENDANTS IN VEDIC ASTROLOGY

People are often curious at the beginning of their astrological quest, to know something of the various facets pertaining to their ‘chart’; in other words, they wish to evaluate the basic propensities pertaining to their Lagnas and their Rashi/ Lagna Kundalis (Kundalis). Also, the Chandra Lagna itself and Gochar furnish other popular areas of curiosity. Lagna is the sign rising on the Eastern horizon at the time of birth and is occupied by a Rāśi (Rashi)/ Vedic sign. The average duration of a sign rising in the Lagna/ Ascendant is two hours and for this reason the twelve Rāśis cover the twenty-four hours duration of the solar day. ( Basic Jyotiṣa principles can be accessed by clicking this link ) Lagna imbues a person with individuality and therefore denotes the self and the personality of the person. It is the first house or Bhāva of the chart and is the commencement point of any horoscopic study. We cannot forget that in all the divisional charts as well there is a Lagna/ asc

Vedic Astrology: The Charakaraka Replacement and Its Impact

At its deepest core Jyotiṣa is at the driving centre of all Karma. Just like life, if properly appreciated as it must, it has the status of a full-scale on-going project of immense magnitude. Karma and Soul : The Lagna and the Bhavas reckoned from the Lagna in the Rāśi Chakra indicate the physical manifestation of life. In the Varga Chakra the Lagna and the Bhāvas indicate the personality and realities of that specific environment. When we speak of Karma we inevitably speak of the soul as it is the soul which must carry and exhaust the Karma through rebirth. Charakāraka - Matters pertaining to the soul are studied and deciphered through the Charakāraka in Vedic Astrology. The Charakāraka are the temporal significators (Naisargika Kāraka) for various matters at the level of the soul and the Karma. The Charakāraka are decided on the basis of longitude of arc traversed by the planets including minutes and seconds of arc, and sometimes fractions of seconds of arc. The Eight Cha
