Daunted beginners, amsas and correct predictions

[Guest guest]

Hello Arun,

 

Thanks for your mail. I think I understand the thoughts that you have

put down. However, the question remains: How can we see the big

picture, and the interplay between the energies? The books talk about

things like, "If this and this, then that". It creates contradictions

sometimes.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Manu

Manu,

 

Your predicament is something, every student of astrology

experiences. Don't waste your time in trying to understand knots,

which seem to take a lot of your time. Focus rather on gathering as

many dictums as possible, which you are able to apply accurately. As

time passes by, you will be in a position to go back to these knots

(seeming contradictions) and you will find yourself grasping them

better and developing the ability to apply them appropriately. If

there are specific issues that you somehow are unable to ignore,

there are enough experienced people on this list who will help you.

 

To see the "big picture" there is no substitute for perseverance and

rigourous study.

 

Loving regards,

Arun
