Guest guest Posted November 23, 2000 Report Share Posted November 23, 2000 Om Amrtesvaryai Namah! Namaste dear Mani!!!and all the other beloved list members!! i wonder if you are describing some sort of universal experience this last while...i too have noticed an unusual lack of motivation in worldly ways,(although Spiritual pursuits seem to be more appealing, and Jyotish very appealing---of course Sani and Guru are in my 5th--so i've been noticing separation from children among the other little indications of fun from the 5h with Sani and Guru in it...) just as mani so wonderfully described...and as i have my natal Sun in Scorpio in the 11th, and my Venus (the lord of Taurus) in Libra in my Tenth, i have been noticing the exquisite little lilas of these dear Grahas for the last couple or three years, especially in reference to "career" and Dharma (what i should do)...and now with those two loveable "Gurus" in Taurus, opposite my Sun in the 11th, the finances are being squeezed, to put it lightly, as Sun is already arguably the greatest malefic in my chart (capricorn lagna), as well (Guru and) Sani have never been all that kind to me in the worldly department...you know how She (Sani) is...(i see Sani as Mother Kali, Venus as Mother Laksmi, and Guru (Jupiter) as Mother Saraswati...all embodiments of that Supreme Power, the Adi Para Shakti....and all my Gurus... By following one of the "arudha" techniques where you find the lord of the lagna and then count around the same number of bhavas from that to find the "arudha lagna", and then from that you can go one back, to the 12th (if i remember this technique properly), to find your beloved deity, the one you should be worshipping...When i followed these instructions (not necessarily as i have narrated), i came up with the sign of Taurus and its ruler Venus...Thus Venus was to be my Beloved Deity....Then i compared my natal chart with my Guru's (Sri Mata Amritanandamayi Devi--my dear Mother Kali!), only to find this amazing 'coincidence': in my rashi chart, Venus sits in Her own sign, Libra, in the 10th house....an infant at 0 degrees 58 minutes Chitra....When this is overlayed onto Ammachi's chart, one immediately notices that Amma's lagna is 23deg 20 min Libra, and Her Sani is 3deg 45 min Chitra in Libra...a direct conjunction of Amma's Sani with my Shukra...so to this devotee the meaning seemed quite clear....my beloved Deity, Venus, is infact the same as Sani or Maha Kali, Who is seen to be none other than Sri Mata Amritanandamayi Devi...(Amma is seen by many many of Her close devotees to be an incarnation of that Divine Mother Kali). So even so precisely can Jyotish be used....to see such relationships with your spiritual teachers.(Of course i am only in Jyotish kindergarten so my musings may be like the scribblings of a 5 year old to the real Jyotishis in the crowd.) Interestingly enough, also, Amma's Rahu is conjunct (within the 5-7degree orb) with my Natal Moon in Uttarashadha in my Lagna Bhava. Thus Her Ketu would be found in opposition in my 7th ...Whereas my ketu at 11 deg 48 min Magha is conjunct with Amma's Mars at 14 deg 36min PurvaPhalguni and Her Venus at 10deg 25 min Magha...thus indicating to this beginner at least, some past life connections between my Amma and this little child of Hers... As for the Navamsha it too is interesting to compare...My sun in Scorpio is conjunct Amma's Sani, my Jupiter and Venus in Libra are conjunct Amma's Jupiter, my ascendant in Taurus is conjunct Amma's in Taurus... and again we see the Venus/ Ketu relationship in Cancer, Where Amma's Venus is conjunct with my Ketu, again indicating past life connections if i understand the indications rightly. Amma Herself, the first time i met Her in Seattle told the entire hall at the beginning of Her satsang in June 2 1995, that everyone in the hall had been with Her before.... Don't know if these musings are of any interest to anyone, but they might find some interesting correspondences in their own spiritual lives with Jyotish...Everything seems to be perfectly timed, like a grand symphony...i wonder how many other devotees would be able to find such interesting correspondences in their charts.... In Our Mother's Divine Love, and in Her Holy Service, i salute You all bowing again and again!!! and taking the sacred dust from Your Lotus feet, i am remaining as ever Your Own Self visvanathan Om Amrtesvaryai Namah!!!

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2000 Report Share Posted November 23, 2000 Dear KV and others, Interesting, what you say. The "lethargy" and confusion seems to be universal. The retrogression is across two signs, Aries and taurus. this may mean that "aggression" is giving way to peace and progress! With Taurus lagna and Venus in my 10th, the Arudha lagna would be Scorpio (?) and 12th therefrom libra, under venus. instinctively I have always looked upon "God" as a Mother! Amman and Meera are closer to me than Sri Sai Baba! My first meeting with Amman (Mata Amritanda Mayi) was very interesting, revealing and exalting! I was in a traffic jam, came too late. The rows of devotees waiting for the "embrace" were full, ropes had been put up to stop late.comers. I was politely told that I should return the next day, the quota was full for the evening. Something compelled me to look towards Amman, just as I was told this. Amman - across a fully crowded hall - smiled directly at me, laughed and gestured to me to climb over the ropes!!! The attendants were surprised, but did not stop me. I got the embrace. I returned the next and last day, got her blessings. She gestured to me to sit near her on the stage. I thought she would perhaps talk to me, but she did not. She finally got up, smiled at me and retired. But after the last blessing ceremony, I waited outside to bid her farewell when she and her entourage left for the next city. It was late in the night, rather early morning, when she finally came out. She greeted everyone who was there, stood before me and asked my name. I told her, grabbed her hand and laid it on my head. Smiling, she said, "So that is what you call yourself! Keep your courage and faith, all will end well!" She spoke Malayalam, which I could understand, being very close to Tamil. And in parting, stroked my cheek! I am sharing this with all of you as it happened, but it had a deeper significance for me. In this life, I had met my Mother! The other incarnation of Shakthi is different. Meera does not speak to the public. She only blesses them. Her name consists essentially of the letters M and R, the sacred letters of Shakthi. .... The Holy virgin was called Miriam..... and Jesus Isa....... Sai Baba said, "Say Isa thrice and you have said Sai twice. Say Sai thrice and you have said Isa twice!" I write these words, but without thinking, they just come out of my hand, I have to re-read what I write to understand what I have written.... to correct, for the thoughts come quicker than I can type!
