Jupiter in Pisces: A Time For Blessings

 
The differences between the journey of Jupiter in Aquarius previously, and now in Pisces, are great. The lordship of Shani debilitates Guru in Makara Rashi/ Capricorn. Though the situation is different in Aquarius, the fact remains that the sign is ruled by Saturn, while Jupiter Himself rules Pisces. 


The Tattwa or the foundational element of the two Rashis is also different. Kumbha Rashi/ Aquarius has Vayu Tattwa while Meena Rashi/ Pisces has Jala Tattwa. Vayu is about strength and movement while Jala is about receptivity and connection. We have often said that Kumbha Rashi is one of the more Karmically loaded signs having significant Karma to be experienced in the charts of people. Apart from this, Kumbha houses the 11th house of the natural zodiac which is also the Badhaka Rashi for the Kalapurusha or the Cosmic Man. 


It is this latter reason which qualifies the placement of Jupiter in this sign because the Devaguru has to work hard to dispel the darkness caused by the natural Badhaka Rashi. In Meena Rashi, Guru has come home and He is comfortable. Guru represents the unconditional blessings for people in general and His comfort and ease is a great opportunity to benefit from His wisdom and blessings. Just as the Graha Drishti of Shani represents trials and challenges, that of Guru represents successes and blessings. 

 

Guru aspects the 5th and 9th Bhavas from His Rashi with His special Graha Drishti while the 7th House is the common aspect given to all the Grahas except Ketu, who does not have a head and therefore cannot see (Drishti). The 5th Bhava is one of the Panaphara Bhava dealing with the future, future plans, progeny, blessings of the Mother Goddess and such matters. Guru’s special 5th Bhava aspect is imbued with all these characteristics. What is more, the 5th Bhava aspect of Guru falls on His sign of exaltation, Karkata/ Cancer where He delights. 





The 9th Bhava from the Lagna relates to fortune, luck, religion, father and higher studies. The 9th house aspect of Guru to Vrishchika Rashi/ Scorpio will help in assimilating the experiences of the past related to this Rashi and the perspective granted by the Drishti of Guru brings fortune. If the position of Guru in transit in Meena Rashi at this time happens to be in an auspicious place from a significant reference point such as the Lagna or the Arudha Lagna, then the blessings can be directly felt in an auspicious Dasha.


In other cases, it will depend on the position occupied by Meena Rashi in the chart under traverse. That would indicate the nature and focus of the influence of Jupiter on the individual during this transit. Pisces is full of the knowledge of the Rishis and is particularly aligned to Para Vidya or metaphysical disciplines but in the Rashi Chakra covers any kind of significant intellectual activity including Apara Vidya. An upsurge in spiritual activity and its auspiciousness can be expected because Pisces is a part of the Moksha Trikona and any Agni Tattwa Rashi in the Lagna will experience this in a more conspicuous way. In any case, as we have said elsewhere, the distinction is not overly important during the present times because Shukra/ Venus is exalted in Pisces and is joined Guru. 


We cannot overlook the fact that all dual signs benefit from this transit of Guru because of the Rashi Drishti of the great benefic to these Rashis.  Therefore, these invaluable blessings are available at this time in a myriad ways and we  can benefit greatly from them.

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/...

Transits of Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu in 2025 in Vedic Astrology

Spring and summer of 2025 will be marked by notable shifts in transit of the slow-moving planets, Guru, Shani and Rahu-Ketu.  Important transits have the capacity to modify the results of the Dasha. In Vedic astrology/ Jyotisha, therefore, the two phenomena have to be examined together.  Jupiter/ Guru will move to Mithuna Rashi/ Gemini on May 14, 2025 and immediately thereafter the Nodes of the Moon, Rahu and Ketu also transit to Kumbha/ Aquarius and Simha/ Leo respectively. Shani/ Saturn will move to Meena Rashi/ Pisces on March 29, 2025.  Broadly speaking, in highly beneficial Dashas, positive transits lead to an icing on the cake situation, while negative transits can dampen the results or even negate them for a while. The effect can be construed accordingly for adverse Dashas, and so on.  It is well-known that Shani is the only Graha who gives added difficulties when He is strong. But a weak malefic is not to be desired because He becomes far more malefic. In oth...

The Forthcoming Transit/ Gochar of Saturn/ Śani to Libra/ Tulā Rashi on 15th November, 2011

At the present time, when Saturn/ Shani is transiting Virgo/ Kanya Rashi according to the siderial zodiac, we have witnessed many changes, some of them being related to the disturbances in the Prithvi Tattwa, as shown by the earthquake in Japan and the consequent Tsunami. Mercury/ Budh has been debilitated in Pisces/ Meena Rashi at this time but it is equally important to note that Virgo/ Kanya is also a Prithvi Tattwa Rashi or a sign embodying the Earth element. The trine of Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn/ Vrishabh, Kanya and Makar relates to Artha/ financial and monetary element relating to the trine of attainment in work, the accumulation of wealth and the daily work and adversities to be encountered. Shani in Kanya has revealed some of the realities associated with this sign by pressuring the matters associated with it. The chart for the transit of Saturn Implications of the Saturn Transit in Virgo in Virgo is given below:   Saturn is also retrograde and aspects the debilitated M...
