Guest guest Posted October 9, 2001 Report Share Posted October 9, 2001 Dear List, My response to this interesting topic was delayed and almost forgotten due to other pressing commitments. I agree with Tara that there are conflicting views regarding the planetary rulership of the Chakras. However I was taught, and experience has indicated (positively) that what I was taught is correct, that the list, including bija mantra, is thus: Base (root) = SA = Vital Energy = LAM Naval (sacral) = JU = Creativity = VAM Solar Plexus = MA = Desire/Intention = RAM Heart = VE = Peace/Love = YAM Throat = ME = Discernment = HUM Brow = MO/SU = Knowingness = KSHUM Crown = = Enlightenment = OUM I regret my notes don't specify a ruling planet for Crown chakra...perhaps there isn't one, beyond the wheel of karma?...perhaps Ketu?

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2001 Report Share Posted October 9, 2001 Hare Rama Krishna Dear Wendy and others! In my knowledge the 1. Shahasrara chakra (Crown) is ruled by Jupiter as he is the karka for the Dhi Shakti 2. The Ajna Chakra (between the brow) is ruled by Surya as Shiva resides there. 3. Visuddha chakra (Heart) should be ruled by Mercury as Vishnu stay in the Hridaya padma 4. Muladhara chakra (Base of Spine) should be ruled by Ketu, the serpent power which starts from the bottom of the kundalini. Others I am not sure. Others please add to it....I am still learning, Whatever I wrote is with my little knowledge....I would appreciate if others correct me!!!

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2001 Report Share Posted October 9, 2001 Dear Sarajit, Thank you for your contribution. As I said there are innumerable opinions on this subject. I do respect the knowledge of my teacher and my experience does seem to confirm that this is correct, however without scriptural confirmation I cannot say emphatically that what I was taught is correct above all doubt. I would like to see some scriptural reference before deciding unequivocally which is correct. If anyone has any references they can offer I'd be grateful.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2001 Report Share Posted October 9, 2001 Dear List members, Here is my understanding on this topic, Ketu cannot rule any chakra since it's a naisargika Moksha Karaka i.e Ketu's objective is to give realization by going beyond these energy chakra's. The 9 planets, except Ketu and Rahu, each rule one of the chakra depending upon the Karakatwa. Rahu is excluded as it indicates Materialism and desire which is against Moksha and causes us to take rebirth. 1. Sahasra Chakra: Top Head : Sun. Sun is the naisargika (Natural) Atma Karaka. Head is where the atma reaches the highest level. (Halo on head of all the realized people ) 2. Agya Chakra, between brows: Jupiter Aakash tatwa indicate wisdom and knowledge 3. Visuddhi Chakra: Throat: Saturn Vayu Tatwa indicates speach. 4. Anahatta Chakra: Heart : Moon Indicate feelings and desire at heart. 5. Nabhi Chakra: Navel: Mars, Agni Tatwa incates Fire, in stomach to digest food, Anger etc. 6. Swadishtana Chakra: Venus, Jalam Tatwa semen and sexual urge. 7. Mooladhara Chakra: Base of Spine the lowest chakra: Mercury, Prithwi Tatwa Better than my explanation You can read an article from the site jyotish-news/message/80. Hope this helps you, Regards S.Prabhakaran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
