The Royalty Within-Moon in Leo/ Cañdra/ Chandra in Simha on 14th June, 2013

The Moon moves to Leo on 14th June, 2013 and thus enters the domain of royalty. In Indian/ Hindu astrology, Simha indicates kingship and royalty, being ruled by Ravi/ the Sun, the King amongst the Grahas.

But practically, the Moon has had to cross the Gaṅdāṅta/ Gandanta between Karka and Simha and so the Vedic astrologer must advise his consulters accordingly-there is a conflict which arises in these areas and the impact varies according to the Lagna and ought to be deciphered accordingly.

This is even more important because Ravi, the lord of Simha Rāśi/ Rashi is in Rāśi Saṅdhi/ Rashi Sandhi between Vṛṣabha/ Vrishabha/ Taurus and Mithuna/ Gemini. The King may feel vulnerable and nobody really wants that. Government officials and politicians may be given a wide berth till the Gaṅdaṅta/ Gandanta Gochar and/ or the transit of the Sun into Gemini settles down.

The Sankranti Dosha is not to be ignored because the Sun in the 12 Rashis is the Dwadasha-Aditya and governs the resources that we all enjoy in this world. Furthermore, a part of this transit coincides with Saturday/ Shanivara and the energies of the planet Saturn can be testing in such a scenario. With these checks in place, traversing this time could be rendered easier.

Wherever we use Rāśi/ Rashi we also mean Lagna/ the Ascendant sign and so these observations apply squarely to the Simha Lagna. Generally speaking we associate the term 'Lagna' with the Udaya Lagna, the sign rising on the eastern horizon, it includes the special ascendants such as the Horā/ Hora Lagna, Śrī/ Sri Lagna and the Ghāṭika/ Ghatika Lagna.

The chart for the entry of the Moon to Leo on 14th June, 2013 is given below-




Mars aspects the transit Moon with Graha Dṛṣṭi/ Drishti or planetary aspect and infuses a strong element of protection. Simha Lagna is very territorial, like a lion and is fiercely protective of his space. With Mars infusing trigger-happy and impulsive desires to protect the Moon is amenable to considerable Agni Tattwa/ Fire through this Gochara.

Leo ascendant sign is solitary by nature and so people with this Lagna/ Rāśi dominant in the natal horoscope in some way might find solace in privacy where the inherent lordly and powerful personality can find fuller expression. It is for this reason that Lagna Gochara and Lagna astrology, as it is sometimes referred to in common parlance has a very dominant place in Hindu/ Vedic/ Indian astrology.

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
