Vedic Transit Moon/ Chandra in Gemini/ Mithuna and Cancer/ Karka in December, 2013


The spiralling mind in Mithuna/ Gemini on the 18th and 19th of December, 2013. Why does the mind spiral or spin or extend as if it could overreach, take one out and away. This is so because of Rāhu/  Rahu and its Graha Dṛṣṭi/ Drishti/ planetary aspect on the transit Moon.

Gemini is the exaltation of aspiration. Aspiration spirals by its nature and also because of the surrounds.
 
 

Aggression and perfect escape through the rules of the Bhū Loka comes due to the Rāśi Dṛṣṭi/ Rashi Drishti/ sign aspect of the transit Mars in Virgo/ Kanyā Rāśi/ Kanya Rashi.

But perspective and wisdom rule and that too resolutely since Gurū/ Guru/ Jupiter is retrograde in the Gajakeśarī Yoga joining the Moon symbolizing the mind. Sense and better sense will prevail. The laws of Karma will always hold.

The Moon has been full, full of rays after Pūrṇimā/ Purnima and therefore capable of receiving the desire of Rāhu/ Rahu in full measure. The sage wisdom of Jupiter moulds the sensory inputs and depending on the strength in each nativity, charts the course for people in this transit. One of the intervening days is Gurūvāra/ Guruvara too, ruled by Jupiter.

What next. The healing from the Goddess. Karkaṭa Rāśi/ Rashi is protecting as the Moon governs the cure and the care. But life is not so easy as this interpretation. Śani/ Shani makes us labour hard with its Graha Dṛṣṭi from Tulā Rāśi/ Tula Rashi. We must work and fulfil our commitments and obligations even if we are in lordly phases where this stringency appears extreme. Love. Emotion. Jala Yoga. This is so since the transit Moon and Venus/ Śukra/ Shukra will aspect each other.
 
 

Only for so long though as Venus goes back, back, retrogrades into Sagittarius/ Dhanuṣa Rāśi/ Dhanusha Rashi at the end of the firstweek of the New Year in 2014. But that is later. Revisiting. Experiencing whatever is there in Dhanusha Rashi and desiring Gemini. But then that is later. Retrogression of benefics means a high compulsion-the signification stands up and vies for attention, for us to take notice.

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
