Guest guest Posted July 29, 2002 Report Share Posted July 29, 2002 Hi In coming forward in my life these days, I'm thinking back on things, reviewing the life, my feelings throughout and so on. It makes some astrological points of interest. One simple thing: Jupiter and Venus are benefics. Saturn and Rahu malefics. In this life, I have the benefics in trines, Jup-9, Ven-1 I also have the malefics in trines: Sat-9, Rahu-5 I ran Jupiter-Venus around age 20. I just ran Saturn Rahu. Jupiter-Venus saw me: 1. Join Hare Krishna 2. Travel all expenses paid around world twice with Guru 3. Visit numerous holy places all over the world, esp. India 4. Meet many spiritually involved people/leaders 5. Run temples, run temple programs, learn Sanskrit start, Scripture etc. 6. Get married- a blind kindof religious marriage 7. Took numerous "dips in the Ganges" just like it says 8. Was the favorite of a Guru with hundreds of disciples (just like Jataka Tattva says for Jupiter in Mridu Shasti. at 9 deg Sagit.) ( it says "will be the favorite of the Guru". I was.) Saturn-Rahu saw me: 1. Sunk in pain 2. Unable to work 3. Seeing shrinks, taking meds 4. Being abandoned 5. Kid nearly dies 6. Kids move out of my house 7. Get nothing done, money decreases sharply 8. Loss of prestige, loss of all kinds of relationships 9. Turning to alternatives for Venusian input 10. Feeling no wife, no love, no presence of anyone, lonely So as you can see, true to form, one period was exalted, the other, depressing. The above readings sound like they come straight out of astrology books from India. I also want to say something basic again that I've said before: I have a rare yoga for children being harmed- they both were, seriously so. Another thing of interest: Recently, I switched to a Jupiter Bhukti again- right around now, or a couple days ago. Corresponding to this, lately, there are some people here in Eugene who have kindof discovered me lately. They own a healing center. The owner family has gotten to know me and I them. We're friends. They are rather impressed with my being, and they call me "The Guru of the Kelts". Now this is a joke and encouragement they're trying to give me. But the point is, they started saying this to me exactly when the Bhukti began, and Jupiter is Guru. So it's not a coincidence, it's karma. Then too, I am not a disciple of Prabhupada, but yesterday I got an invitation to write a Vyasa Puja offering for him. This is a Guru thing. It's not normal for me to receive that invitation in a way, but here it is in this Bhukti, another Guru connection. I'm not able to always tell exactly which of the many possibilities of events will occur, but in hindsight, certainly, gosh, my chart follows my dashas very well. Now this being the case, certainly the only thing then is "how to deal", which is mental, internal. So then certainly the ability to be happy without external help is essential, since the externals may be so bad so, as to include death, war, disease, etc, at the worst, and even at best, daily life includes strife and struggle to some degree. So the knowledge that karma and fixed paths exist is essential for knowing what is and is not really helpful for gaining happiness. Interestingly, the HK movement, Prabhupada's books, stress repeatedly the need to surrender to God and not try to manipulate nature for your own ends, fruit hunting, desiring. Now, he hardly mentions astrology, rarely did, but gosh, it just swipingly proves one side of this easily. So I think it's so important to show the world, and show ourselves, how well it's working. By the way, my son, he's in Ketu dasha, and one of the readings says something about difficult or odd relationships, and sure enough, he keeps getting really promising girlfriends, but each time, there is something drastically wrong which is quite odd, and requires him to have an "odd relationship" to make it stay. These are beyond normal. Again, I see it working. In Jupiter Saturn, which ran from age 11 to 14: Lost my father, took drugs for first time, the amazing world of LSD/Mushrooms opened for me which changed my outlook on life dramatically, from little kid, to psychadelics maniac, my life opened in a big way as I started High School and really liked it better, by far, than before, the grade school thing. Finally got away from being in my childhood neighborhood, this High School was further away. It brought me in close but good contact with many Chicanos and Afr.Amers. in the downtown of Oakland, but it went really well. I met some Franciscan brothers who became my good friends and surrogate fathers. Mind you, for me, the psychadelics supported spiritual precepts within me. Since childhood I believed in God strongly. When I saw the Mandalas present within all of nature, then I knew for sure that He was into Beauty. When I saw the Blue People again for the first time in this life, there was an instant connection- the beauty and bliss found artificially in intoxicants was clearly represented in those pictures. Those pictures looked liked, to me, a permanent "trip". Though I was tripping, they didn't know it, and I was then always, the "favorite" of the religious leaders at the High School. I was close to some of them. I wrote great papers on religion. I did really good in school, honor roll, slept through Calculus and passed anyway. You see, what was really going on, then, as usual in my life, was that I was in my own headspace, separate from others around me, and tripping on God, and thinking about how to change the world to be more spiritual, so I could like it better. This is pretty much ALL I've ever thought about. At that time, in Jupiter-Saturn, (which is now repeating kindof as Saturn-Jupiter), you could say it was a time of loss and gain of fathers, perceptions into God, but through odd or usually "illegal" means, a real feeling of being connected to God, amongst many who were not interested, a rich inner life to make up for the lonliness. Interestingly, the first person to give me any drugs, which started a rather "spiritual" change in life for me, died shortly thereafter in a car crash. You see, my ninth house has those two opposite, Saturn and Jupiter. So he gave me drugs, this is Saturn, and he died, also Saturn. But this was like the beginning of Tantric God Consciousness for me, which has been a huge part of my life. Seeing God always, yes, but like some practitioners, and maybe we can say "Lord Shiva", there's some Tama Guna "around", if you're judging, as is usually the case with Tantrics. When my father went away during the first one, Jupiter-Saturn, there was a sense of relief, and a change in the family. In this one, GJ3 will be finished, and that will be a relief. A big one, as it's been an anxiety waiting to hatch for years now. I also went back then, from Catholic Grade School in my own home neighborhood which was all upper class and white (though we were poor), to a school in the Ghetto in Oakland, where I regularly got hit by African Americans attending there, who's lives were not the most opulant in Oakland. So there was a loss of protection, but a much wider bigger world gained. I also "cut schoo" for the first time, and that's the Saturn in the 9th of higher education again. I write all this as examples for beginners to ponder and be convinced by, learn from, no other reason.
