VEDIC ASTROLOGY

Mars(The Warrior) moves into Leo

2010-05-24T06:27:00.000-07:00

Mars is known as a Commander in Chief according to Vedic system of Astrology. Broadly Mars signifies Defense forces, power, fighting spirit, Accidents, Natural Calamities, Security forces, Aggression, younger siblings. Sun and Mars are the protecting forces in any chart. Sun rules Leadership, Ego, Administration where as Mars loves to protect these things by assisting the ruler by providing sufficient energy. This is why Sun enjoys in the signs(Aries,Scorpio) ruled by Mars and Mars enjoys in the sign Leo which is ruled by Sun.

A strong Mars is usually good for giving good competition but due to its malefic nature most of the times this over shoots and turns into violence. Violent approach of any human being is usually referred to Mars. An ill placed or a debilitated Mars denotes weak energy levels, lack of initiative, short temper and violent nature due to low tolerance low energy levels.

Mars also rules technical aspects in our life. So whatever hindrances some people are facing with their gadgets, technical tools, equipments will also be vanished to a greater extent. Those people who are born with Aries, Cancer, Leo,Scorpio,Sagittarius,Pisces Ascendants will get good benefits due to this transit.

If Mars is well placed or exalted in a horoscope it gives strength to the chart. Even he is a natural malefic if he is functional benefic for any chart then the individual and finally this benefits from this and uses that energy more positively so that the individual could reach comfortable position in life with commendable achievements. Similarly an ill placed or debilitated Mars in a horoscope will show the effect in negative way so that there could be sudden mishaps, violent incidents could take place in the life of the individual.

Mars is moving into Leo on 26th May 2010. He had an unusual stay in the sign of Cancer for the last seven months. Hope all of you could have been experiencing the effect. We have been seeing various security threats happening all around the country. The police men and bomb squads are always getting spurious calls of bombs being placed in various malls, shopping complexes, multiplexes and various other prominent places where huge crowds are usually gathered. This period has given sleepless nights to all the security forces in the country. The general public also suffered a lot with several apprehensions, anxiety and fear in their day to day life.

Mars is debilitated in Cancer. If we slightly get into a deeper analysis and question ourselves of how this can be interpreted then we will get the following explanation. Mars is the protector as it is signified as a commander which can be simply explained as the energy that we have in us to respond when something happens to us more specifically at the physical level. If we have more energy certainly we will have more courage to fight the situation and we confront more. Now let me dwell much deeper into this concept for a better understanding. Mars is debilitated is in the sign of Cancer which is lorded by Moon. Whenever this happens it is obvious that we will have a feel of some trouble towards our security which is more at the mind level. Whenever we fail to handle this psychologically this could result in violent behavior and unnecessary aggression, harsh approach in our speech and in handling different situations around us. Unfortunately this is a much longer period i.e. 5th October 2009 to 26th May 2010 which is unusual so the effect is more.

The Central Government stance against Naxals (Maoists) has given a negative outcome. The CRPF men died in large number in two successive incidents in Dantewada district of Chattisgarh within a span of one month. This is a period where Terrorists and anti government forces had an edge over the government the obvious reason for this is a debilitated Mars.

The most important thing that we can notice here during the transit of Mars into Cancer which is a watery sign we had experienced major cyclone which affected the lives of many people in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka during October 2009. Once again we had witnessed a Cyclone in Andhra Pradesh and a Major plane crash of the decade in Mangalore Airport of Karnataka State. Hence Mars has shown maximum effect while entering and leaving the sign of Cancer.

Leo is the fifth house of the natural zodiac or the chart of kalapurusha. This is ruled by Sun and it represents power and Authority. Mars entry into Leo is going to have an impact with the people in higher positions. Some changes in the state and central governments are visible due to this transit. Today we have already got a hint from the withdrawal of support from BJP to Shibusoren Government of Jharkhand. So this transit could pave the way for some changes in the positions of various political leaders of the States and Centre.

JUPITER ENDS RETROGRADE AND TURNS DIRECT ON 13TH

2009-10-12T03:00:00.000-07:00

Jupiter has been under Retrograde since 16th June 2009. This period of Retrograde can be described as four months of journey into the alignment of our integrity with our Soul’s Purpose. A long drawn desire which might be unfruitful for years could have come into focus to get materialized in these four months period.

We might have been working hard and waiting to see the results of our actions. We all were into understanding the reflections of our beliefs and values in these four months.

We need to reschedule ourselves from 13th October as Jupiter is turning direct in Capricorn. We might be experiencing unexpected events turning in our life and making our intuitions and goals intact. Some new Job opportunities may be round the corner for people who are putting efforts in the Professional arena.

We might be looking at our inherent strengths and trying to utilize our strengths by focusing on the right plane. A thorough understanding of our past events could have been going on with an idea of making our future bright. Most of the things that are happening around us as well as in the Global arena will have a reality check after Jupiter ends his Retrograde and turns direct.

The actual results of our hard efforts can be seen after 13th October. If we have worked out our energy levels to expand our wisdom, virtues, spiritual learning then sure the Planet Jupiter is going to give us fruitful results in the coming future.

Finally if there is a good alignment of our actions and thoughts to fulfill our desires and learning then we are going to enter into a bright future along with Jupiter's Journey into Aquarius.

SADE SATI AND ITS EFFECT

2009-09-07T08:00:00.000-07:00

"Om shri Shanaischaraya Namah"
"Neelamjana Samabhasam Ravi putram yamagrajam chaayamartanda Sambhutam Tam namami Shanaischaram"

SATURN
Saturn is the second largest and slowest moving planet in the Solar System. Saturn changes its sign once in every 2.5 years. Saturn is the signifier of our action the present as well as the past. Saturn decides the fructification of our karmas. We are bounded to our karmic actions and we need to undergo good and bad results of our karmic actions. A favourable Shani in a horoscope can give wealth, fame, high position in the Society at the same time an unfavourable Shani gives miseries, sorrow, deep depression, series of failures in life. Saturn is the lord of Karma Bhava, Labha Bhava of the Birth Chart. The lordship of Saturn in the Birth Chart denotes that our good karma will fructify into good gains. Hence Saturn favours hard workers, those who perform good deeds, disciplined, organised and also those people who are highly responsible and service oriented. He punishes those people who perform bad deeds, indisciplined and those who don't respect their elders.

SADE SATI
Sade Sati(In Andhra Pradesh it is known as Elinati Shani) is a period of 7.5 years. Sade Sati starts with the transit of Saturn into twelth house from the Moon sign and continues till Saturn transit into third house from the Moon sign. In Sade Sati period Saturn transit into twelth house is called as first phase of Sade Sati, first house or Janma rashi transit is called as second phase or middle phase, second house transit is called as third phase or last phase of Sade Sati. For example if a person was born in Leo Moon Sign his Sade Sati starts with Saturn transit into Cancer and continues till Saturn transit into Libra . Saturn transit into Cancer is called as first phase of Sade Sati, Saturn transit into Leo(Janma Rashi) is called as middle or Acute Phase of Sade Sati, Saturn transit into Virgo is called as third Phase or Final Phase of Sade Sati. Normaly an individual could experience only three cycles of Sade Sati in his life time. The First cycle is highly intensified and there would be obstacles and hardships in what ever we do. This period also troubles the parents of the native who suffers from it. Second cycle of Sade Sati is less intensified compared to First Cycle. In this period the native succeed through hardships and labour, the progress of the individual continues after overcoming various obstacles. But there could be loss of parents and other family members who are elder in the family.
Third cycle of Sade Sati is extremely harshful and shows very high intensity. The native may face serious illness, fear of death, physical hardships in this period. Very few people survive during this time.

Here one question certainly comes into our mind will all people have the same effect if they have the same Moon Sign. Certainly not the reason is to understand the effects of Sade Sati on individual basis we need to analyse the horoscope for the Placement and Lordship of Saturn along with Moon. A much deeper analysis into the degrees of Saturn and Moon will reveal us the time of intensified action of Saturn more accurately.
Another important thing to note here is if the lord of the moon sign is friendly to Saturn the effects are some what less intensified. Every one will face hardships but the results of the actions can turn beneficial for those signs that are friendly to Lord Shani. How ever maximum number of people who experience Sade Sati will come out with good wealth after the end of Sade Sati.

In the first year of Sade sati effect of Saturn is on the Face and the native may experience danger, pressure, expensive journeys. Second year of Sade Sati shows effect on right Shoulder. Monetary gains, relief is expected.Third year of Sade Sati shows effect on Feet, there will be an experience of depression, disharmony in life. Fourth year of Sade Sati shows effect on Chest, Heart, respect, prestige, monetary gains, stability in actions. Fifth year of Sade Sati shows effect on left shoulder, disease,depression, unhappiness, instability,humiliation. Sixth year of Sade Sati shows effect on Head,happiness,lottery chances, Speculation, Profits. Seventh year of Sade Sati shows effect on eyes, respect, happiness, prestige. The final six months of Sade Sati effects are like difficulties, sorrow, danger to body, unhappiness.

Out of all these 7.5 years acute period is 2.5 years only. This is the middle phase of Sade Sati. Very few people in this world come out of this phase without any difficulties. In this particular period people will experience loss of some one in the family, financial troubles, career troubles, relationship troubles, strong opposition to what ever they do, ill luck striking every time when they venture into something new either in job or business, differences in the family, problems with children, health problems, depression, loss of confidence, loss of energy, insomnia, gastric troubles, miserable changes, unfortunate chances, unfructifying actions, inability to move with proper vision, darkness looming around, blockade in the thinking process, mental instability, unnatural tendencies, unstable mind, irreparable losses, series of bad incidents striking the individual. Once this acute phase of Janma Shani is over there will be great mental relief but still some hardships are required as the native enters into the last phase of 2.5 years of Sade Sati.
