Guest guest Posted December 6, 2001 Report Share Posted December 6, 2001 > Yes, any astrologer finds what he is looking for. If you are looking for Virgo, you will find Virgo and if you are looking for Libra you will find Libra. Natabara, What on Earth are you saying? Honest, Vedic astrology logic will lead to one result and not another. I have justified my statements by properly applying astrological logic, and you brush aside the things I have presented as just so much jockeying for position. I feel really let down. > I find that Libra rising for GH is the right one. Fell free to follow any you want. > > <<Virgo generally gives timid, reserved or shy characters>> > > I can mention to you more than 10 persons with Virgo rising that are not at all like you describe avobe, including myself. Well, you may say, generally and i am bot following the rule but maybe also GH. I have mentioned before that it is difficult to justify one choice or the other on the basis of personality because there is so much room for confusion and interpretation. But some concrete event, such as the possession of property, is the kind of thing that can be pinned down. One can see if there is anything astrological to justify an event or possession, and then it becomes a matter of yes or no. I am thinking that you are not following the logic so well; you slough it all off and talk about personalities.

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2001 Report Share Posted December 7, 2001 Hi Dharmapada <<I have studied the books of Dr. Raman for a couple of decades and the way he interprets. I have studied The Astrological Magazine for a couple of decades, too, including the way in which veteran astrologers go about their thought process as they explain astrological rationale, >> It is a misconception to think that the student of a great man is also great. We have seen in the past and present that this rule is not valid and that some students use and abuse that rule. We all have the propensities to make errors. We all also have the potential to input a wrong lagna on a person. We have seen the debate about Capricorn or Sagittarius lagna for Prabhupada. Both sides put astrological arguments and none can convince the other side. Astro arguments will continue and astrologers will continue to propose different lagnas according to their beliefs, knowledge or intentions. <<I've spoken at length with two nurses who have worked in maternity wards. One of them told me that the birth times are not so perfectly recorded. This takes away from the usefulness of divisional charts in the first place because the divisional ascendents move on and off the horizon within a matter of minutes. >> Well, regarding midwives, i was present at the birth of my 2 children and i know about their time keeping. It can be a guess sometimes, a matter of burocracy to feel the papers. I asked to a nurse about the standards of practices of midwives in Britain, regarding the birth time and i got this email: <<Re time of birth, the midwives take it from when the whole body is out. they take that as time of birth and then time when the baby breathes (it might not and they need to know how long it is before it does for resuscitation purposes), but that is not defined as birth time.>> According to Srila Prabhupada, quoting vedic standards, he says that the time of birth is the time when the umbilical cord is severed. Between the appearance of the whole body and the cutting of the umbilical cord, time is relative according to each case. Therefore, correction of birth time is here invited. <<This takes away from the usefulness of divisional charts>> I disagree, because those divisions can reduce the span of time in a correction of birth time. <<Another one told me that a spurt of children can be born during the same time period, then during a different period, maybe even during the same night, only a few births spaced apart.>> I have heard that mother earth "pulsates" and causes the birth of humans once every 4 minutes. <<As far as dispositors are concerned, they are not emphasized at all in the classic literature the way that placement in dushthanas are..>> We can not claim that we have or have read all of the classic literature. Lord brahma expanded the vedas from only 4 seed lines. According to the Oxford Paperback Dictionary, dispose means: "DETERMINES THE COURSE OF EVENTS; man proposes, God disposes". If you study the horoscope of Lord Chaitanya, you can see that Saturn is in its enemy sign of Scorpio and Venus in Aries. But their dispositor Mars is exalted in the 6th house. The exaltation of Mars gives strenght to both Saturn and Venus. In the case of George Harrison, Jupiter is in Gemini in the 9th house and his dispositor Venus is exalted in the 6th house. That combination gave to George an attachment for spiritual values and service. The influence of Krishna as the Supreme Person can be seen in many of his songs. Have you heard "My Sweet Lord, which is going to be re-released for this Christmas?" <<It is my contention that the ascendent lord, Venus and the lord of the house of properties in the most evil houses of the horoscope preclude the possibility of Libra beingthe ascendent of George Harrison, the millionare musician. >> Then what you say about the horoscope of Lord Chaitanya. Mars is in the 6th house and Mercury is in the 8th which according to you those houses are the most evil houses. In that horoscope, Mars is exalted and Mercury although debilitated achieves the following rule and gets cancellation of debilitation or necha-bhanga-raja-yoga, which gives fruits similar to exaltation. When the Host and the Lord of the Exaltation Sign of the Debilitated Planet are in mutual Kendras from each other. In this case, Mercury is debilitated but his host Jupiter is in a kendra to Mercury which is the lord of exaltation of the debilitated planet.. <<I wrote the page where the legislative history behind the time observance in Britain is posted. The owner of the site responded as below. >> First, the owner of that site is not astrologer. The makers of the Time Tables were or are astrologers and they have done already their homework. Why you dont ask to Doris Chase about her research. Second, the astrologer to George did already a research about the correction to the birth time. > Yes, any astrologer finds what he is looking for. If you are looking for Virgo, you will find Virgo and if you are looking for Libra you will find Libra.Natabara,><<What on Earth are you saying?>> Dharmapada, i may be recovering from my illness but thanks to Krishna my brain is intact and i know very well what i am saying. In the case of Prabhupada's lagna, those that are looking for Capricorn are finding that lagna and those looking for Sagittarius as well. The difference is that Sagittarius lagna is more revealing. But in the end it is a matter of opinion and everyone is free to say what they like according to their studies, knowledge or conveniences. <<Honest, Vedic astrology logic will lead to one result and not another.>> What is logic prabhu? Many "vedic" leaders in the past gave their "logic" and in the end they were found that they were cheating their followers. << I have justified my statements by properly applying astrological logic, and you brush aside the things I have presented as just so much jockeying for position. >> Prabhu, your astro logic is not my logic. If i had followed the logic of those vedic cheaters, i would be in hell by now. And regarding position, I do not need it thanks to Krishna, i am happy to work for donations and i do not need to "protect or defend" my faulty authorship. <<I feel really let down. >> Why?, because you cannot sell your virgo lagna to those that are telling you that it is Libra? > I find that Libra rising for GH is the right one. Fell free to follow any you want.> > <<Virgo generally gives timid, reserved or shy characters>>> I can mention to you more than 10 persons with Virgo rising that are not at all like you describe avobe, including myself. Well, you may say, generally and i am bot following the rule but maybe also GH.<<I have mentioned before that it is difficult to justify one choice or the other on the basis of personality because there is so much room for confusion and interpretation.

And by the way, i gave the answer about personalities to Rajan according to his "logic".Best wishesnatabara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
