The Natural Disaster in Uttarakhand-Moon in Virgo/ Kayna Rashi and Libra/ Tula Rashi

The Himalayan Indian State of Uttarakhand has suffered a massive setback with huge rains, floods and landslides in the upper reaches of the Kedāranātha Jyotirliṅga/ Kedaranath Jyotirlinga, starting from Rudraprayāga/ Rudraprayag.

This has happened mostly on the night of the 16th of June, 2013 and the morning of 17th of June, 2013. We can readily see the causes of this Act of God with the techniques of Vedic/ Hindu/ Indian astrology. The Hindu horoscope for the time when the worst down-surge of water came down from a lake right above the Kedāranātha Temple is given below-


 
 


The Moon is in Rāśi Saṅdhi and has entered the sign of Kanyā/ Kanya/ Virgo which is associated with natural disasters as Mercury/ Budha the lord rules the Pṛthwi Tattwa (earth element) and all natural disasters can be traced to it. Another reason is that planets transiting Virgo are enroute to the airy worlds of Tulā Rāśi/ Tula Rashi/ Libra which is completely overwhelmed with the airy/ windy Śani and Rāhu (Shani and Rahu/ Saturn and Rahu) which embody the Vāyu Tattwa.

Not only was the Moon in a heightened state of agitation with the Rāśi Saṅdhi/ Rashi Sandhi it was agitated with the awareness of the impending Libra and not just that but the Śrāddha Yoga of Śani and Rāhu. All the departed, and thousands are believed to have died in the floods and the glacial release, will find leaving this world a hard task with the Śrāddha Yoga.

Śrāddha Yoga will necessitate that remedial measures are undertaken by the surviving members of the families and appropriate rituals for the departed are duly performed because this calamity has had an impact also on the temple, the Jyotirliṅga itself. Kedāranātha/ Kedaranatha is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas in India, and corresponds to Kumbha/ Aquarius Rāśi/ Rashi.

The damage around this Jyotirlṅga/ Jyotirlinga clearly indicates the influence of the Śrāddha/ Shraddha Yoga since both Śani and Rāhu/ Shani and Rahu, the lords of Kumbha are constituents of the Śrāddha Yoga. However, the deity and the temple, the Garbhagṛha/ Garbhagraha are entirely undamaged. Even Naṅdī/ Nandi within is intact. The reasons for this range from the pragmatic-large boulders and stones and rocks came down with the floods and stopped at the back of the temple, diverting the speedy, devastating currents to either side of the temple...to those rooted in devotion to the Hindu way of life-the magic of Śivā/ Shiva, the strength of India Vāstu Śāstra/ Vastu Shastra to the excellence of the architecture.

Here, we simply record our gratitude to Śiva and let it rest at that.

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

Yanavanta/ Annapurna/ Vahana Yoga of Venus and Moon in Scorpio-8th October, 2013

The Yānavaṅta/ Yanavanta/ Annapūrṇā/ Annapurna/ Vāhana/ Vahana Yoga is formed when Venus and Moon/ Śukra and Cañdra/ Shukra and Chandra associate to form a Yoga in the Vedic horoscope; by Vedic horoscope is meant the Rāśi Cakra/ Rashi Chakra and the Varga Chakra as well, the latter being the divisional charts governing specific areas of life such as marriage (Navāmśa/ Navamsha), career (Daśāmśa/ Dashamsha), children (Saptāmśa/ Saptamsha), parents and elders (Dwādaśāmśa/ Dwadashamsha), comforts and luxuries (Ṣodaśāmśa/ Shodashamsha), spirituality and worship (Vimśāmśa/ Vimshamsha), education (Siddhāmśa/ Siddhamsha) etc. Let us consider the immediate meanings of the various terms used to indicate the Yoga formed due to the association of Venus and the Moon. The term Yānavaṅta/ Yanavanta indicates the charioteer or one guiding the vehicle of humanity or a group or individuals. It indicates leadership and the capacity to show the way to the multitudes and to guide and mould their live

A METHODOLOGY FOR VEDIC CHART INTERPRETATION

The following is an attempt to lay down a general method to conduct professional chart analysis. It appears to have worked well for the author in his practice. Notably though, it need not be the best way to interpret charts and the astrologer must find her own way when it comes to developing a structure with which to unravel any given chart. Some of the more general features of interpretation are being omitted for fear of the paper becoming unwieldy but certain crucial aspects of Jyotish interpretation are being explained since these are not very widely used. The author is indebted to the works of Pt. Sanjay Rath, author, scholar and Jyotish Guru of Sri Jagannath Center. It is through assimilating the writings of Pt. Rath that the author has been able to progress from the fundamentals of Jyotish to a somewhat deeper understanding. ARUDHA PADAS: The houses as reckoned from the Lagna/ Ascendant reveal the truth about the native. This is metaphysical reality as distinguished from precipit
