Vedic Astrology Scrutiny of Nepal Earthquakes and Aftershocks on 25th and 26th April, 2015

The Nepal Earthquake on Saturday, the 25th of April, 2015 shortly before noon, measuring 7.9 on the Richter scale and the aftershocks therafter,  as well as the earthquake on Sunday, the 26th of April, 2015 measuring 6.7 in magnitude can be attributed solely to the condition of transit Mercury/  Budha at this time. 

The transit chart is given below for ready reference-
 

 
Tattwa (Element)-

Mercury (Budha) rules the Pṛthwi (Prithwi or the Earth element) Tattwa in Vedic astrology.

Earthquake in Vedic Astrology-

Earthquake is quite simply the earth quaking or moving which is a disturbance and anomaly in the Pṛthwi Tattwa because this element is fixed. Earth, the planet which we live on furnishes a constant context of fixity, which brings to our lives the notion of stability and being rooted. When the Earth moves, we feel completely disoriented- apart from the damage of property and homes and construction and the loss of human life and limb, rational processes may be impaired and other significations of Mercury may also show damage.

Why Earthquake-

Budha (Mercury) is severely afflicted in transit owing to its conjunction with two malefics, Mars and the Sun. Mars (Maṅgala or Mangala [Kuja]) is very strong in its Moolatrikona (Mūlatṛkoṇa) Rāśi (Rashi) Meṣa (Mesha or Aries) and the Sun (Sūrya or Surya) is in fact exalted. These powerful malefics form a Curse of Mercury in transit.

Sign-

The sign or Rāśi (Rashi) where this happens is inimical to Mercury and Mercury’s worst enemy Mars is joined the Kāraka (Karaka) planet.

Mercury is also fast approaching the Rashi Sandhi or the junctional region between Aries and Taurus. In Taurus (Vṛshabha or Vrishabha) Rāśi, Mercury will be in a friendly sign ruled by Venus although still afflicted by the Graha Dṛṣṭi of Śani and Rāhu.

That Yoga has the propensity to bring storms and hurricanes but the Earth element will be more rooted in the fixed and friendly Taurus.

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
