Guest guest Posted December 1, 2003 Report Share Posted December 1, 2003 Dear Shaluu: It was nice hearing back from you especially as to your situation. Over the years I've spent a lot of time thinking about 'relationships' and partnerships and Jyotish. I think it's especially exciting because not only does Jyotish help us understand why we have the different karmas that we do but most importantly what we can do to change and transform the negatives....into positives. This is the thing I love the most about this jyotish group is it's emphasis on Remedys! When I first started studying Jyotish many years ago, I noticed that all the books that I read would have something like 195 pages on the Jyotish and maybe!, 5 pages on remedial measures. Even at the time I thought that was strange....and kind of imbalanced. Then later, especially when I thought about my own path, growing up in the TM tradition where meditation and growth and improvement is such an intimate part of the practice and knowledge; it occured to me that this was! a rather imbalanced emphasis on Jyotish. So began my own particular and rather unique research in how can we not only find our lives in our charts but how can we also find the solutions to our problems and challenges. In a nut shell, one of the greatest insights I've had in Jyotish is that the malefics in our charts, not only stand for our obstacles and problems, but! they also stand for our solutions. So.... your Saturn and Mars, both aspecting and influencing, adversely your prospects and hopes for success in the 7th house of marriage... are not! just indicative of your karma or the problem... but they're exactly! indicative of your Jyotish, Vedic Solutions! If you want to be married, and yet, you find that there's this frustrating delaying going on .... and when 'we' look at your chart, we find this very predictable Saturnian delaying effect due to Sani being in the first house, then, eureka! Not only is Sani causing your delays and your frustrations.... but it's really there to teach us something. Therefore, you need to look into the nature of Saturn to determine what are you supposed to do to transform Sani's effect into a benefic one. Like that every malefic can not only explain our problems in life...but themselves are truely the key to our Solutions! Mars for example is not just indicative of Mars problems in marriage... but is again, symbolic of something that you could do to make marriage and partnerships of all kinds...more harmonious and fruitful. In this regard I see it as a blessing that you've being delayed a bit, due to Sani, because now you can put attention on really attracting a most ideal mate so even after the Wedding, the marriage itself is free of strife and problems. I was also thinking what an interesting situation you are in. Deeply connected to your family and India and the Vedic life....but living in the West and growing up in those values as well. I also think you are lucky if you can relate and accept and especially take advantage of someone, picking a wonderful mate for yourself! But.... living in the West has probably also confused you a bit in terms of relationships and marriage. We're quite screwed up in this regard. So.... I've created a Jyotish program for relationships which includes at least 4 aspects of success according to Jyotish. #1 ... There's the Moon's compatability between 2 people.... This is very important because the two people should have a very natural repore that feels more like the bliss and comfort of an 'old shoe' instead of a spanking new, flashy and very uncomfortable fit! #2.... The 2 people's overall charts should be compatible. In other words the two individuals should have similar life goals. What do you want in your life? How important is family and children? In India, this second consideration is less important because most all children are householders. In the West, however, we've gotten very preoccupied with many things and the natural stages of life that Veda talks about, Brahmacharya stage, Education stage, Karma, family stage and Recluse stage, retirement.... are certainly not well understood. #3.... It is important that both individuals be taught what karmas do they have in their charts that will be helpful and not helpful in relationships. In other words, it is very important that both individuals have good 'skill' in terms of successful relations. Mars in the 7th House is an indication of a skill that may need to be improved in order to have a more easy, marriage. Mars in the lst, 4th, 7th and 12th houses....all impact the 7th house and indicate some 'karma' of need to improve skill in relationships. Don't feel bad, 50% of our world's population have similar challenges. But the great thing again, is that this malefic situation is also the Vedic Solution! You need to balance Mars in your life and as you do that, especially as it relates to the 7th house and partners, then.... your Mars will behave more benefically! #4.... The other thing that's very important in terms of relationships and marriage is to understand that we live in a very un-dharmic time and there is a lot of ignorance 'out there' in regards to what makes up a successful marriage. My teacher, his Holiiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, has said that 'romantic love, (for ex.) is one of the least important qualities, necessary for a successful marriage.' When I heard that I realized again, one of the reasons why so many of us in the West and now even beginning to be in the East and other developing countries; are so confused and unhappy and unsuccessful in terms of relationships. The old successful couples of every country have been trying to tell us what makes for true success. But, we haven't been listening. Growing up in a climate, today, of Hollywood and un-natural, romantic infatuation, no wonder so many people find it so difficult to be happy in marriage. So...don't allow the ignorances of our Western world confuse you when deciding how and when to pick a wife. It's much more simple then one might think. Oh, yes... wanted to say.....the older, most successful couples tell us true love doesn't come in the beginning like a bolt of lightning.... but instead is the direct result of a life-time of love and devotion to each other! That's another reason why compatability is so important! That two people can be comfortable being together for a lifetime! Anyway.... hope this helps.... So.... tell me, are you able to allow the wonderful 'matchmakers' of India and Jyotish to help you find a bride or are you out there...trying like so many other millions of westerners.... trying to find one on your own? As it turns out....individuals, ourselves, are often the least qualified to attract a good partner. And that's why the tradition has been for matchmakers in every culture from India, to Jewish to African...to all the ancient cultures.... had matchmakers to pick a good mate! Unfortunately the purity and effectiveness of this most laudable earthly culture has become very lost and impure over time; so much so that individuals today do not trust someone else to try and find a good mate. Part of this is due to not understanding that we should not use this marriage opportunity predominantly to bring better advantage to the family and all that concern with the woman's dowry. Many millions of individuals, therefore, in every culture have turned away from these traditional ways of finding a good mate, because they don't trust the 'system' any more. But, today, we are very lucky, because the heart and soul of Vedic knowledge is being enlivened and improved again such that it can be available to all. Jyotish is just one facet of Vedic knowledge and look at how popular Yoga is in the West......teaching millions of people how to meditate, transcend and develop our inner potentials. So....good luck... and tell me what your next step is? Have you considered getting an arranged marriage? Being from both cultures, you don't have to accept the first one? You can look at several good mates for yourself? You're very lucky that you're so close to this ancient knowledge, especially related to matchmaking. But, don't forget you're going to need to improve both Sani and Mars.... to not only attract a good mate but also be happy in marriage! Good luck and God bless! Mark Kincaid PS....
