Guest guest Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 |Hare Räma Kåñëa| Dear Narasimha, He is right, the colors of the sign in which the Varëada lagna is placed is very important, and indicates the quality you must learn or take on to do your work. I.e. Libra is black in color and represents working in ignorance, i.e. without light. Hence such people need to learn how to research, dig out information, etc. Similarly the color of each sign becomes important. The sign occupied lord of Varëada lagna (notice I’m talking only of Varnada lagna and not the 11th from it) is the quality one must aspire to take on.

Guest guest Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 |Hare Räma Kåñëa| Dear Narasimha, Namaskar But Varëa means color? Whether you use the colors of the planets (for complexion) or the colors of the signs, is a different issue. As for this method of using the Varëada lagna, I have no specific reference. Guruji spent some hours teaching us about the colors, and did so based on only the word; varëa. This is what MW says about Varëa a covering , cloak , mantle L. a cover , lid Ya1jn5. iii , 99 outward appearance , exterior , form , figure , shape , colour RV. &c. &c. colour of the face , (esp.) good colour or complexion , lustre , beauty Mn.

Guest guest Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 |Hare Räma Kåñëa| Dear Narasimha, Namaskar I’ll leave the color issue for now.

And specifically in the 11th from VL it shows those opportunities you can earn through. That’s why the lord of 11th from VL is connected with ones earnings. When I talked about Guruji’s chart, I was not referring to 11th from VL to see how much money he made, but whether he could earn at all. The opportunity to earn must be there. The Varëada Lagna itself has nothing to do with ones earnings, and shows those opportunities one has to manifest oneself. I have written this in another mail as well. Similarly other houses from VL specifically talk of various opportunities and support, but only 11th from VL shows opportunities to earn through. font-family:"URW Palladio IT";color:navy"> Best wishes, bold">Visti Larsen color:#4E81C4"> visti (AT) (DOT) org Verdana;color:#4E81C4"> padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm"> font-family:Tahoma;font-weight:bold">pvr108 [pvr (AT) charter (DOT) net] 01 July 2004 15:23 To: vedic astrology [vedic astrology] Re: JHora and Varnada Lagna Clarification) Clearification Sri Narasimha 12.0pt"> 10.0pt">Dear Visti, Apart from the meaning of varna as in "varnaasrama dharma" (e.g. Brahmana, Kshatriya etc), varna also means color. I never disputed that. I did not ask for a classical reference to show that that meaning is valid. What I asked was a classical reference to show that the color of a sign or planet should be used when judging varnada lagna. When talking about varnada, Jaimini said that the sign involved should be examined. He did not say how. Then he said the planet involved should be examined and there he explained how. He outlined which planets are which varna (i.e. which show Brahmana, which show Kshatriya etc). So, when judging the sign involved, there is no clear guidance. One may suggest using all kinds of parameters like the duality of the sign, triplicity of the sign, quadruplicity of the sign, various significations of the sign etc. But they must all be understood in the context of varna. Color of a sign is just another parameter. If you give more importance to that parameter than others just because varna also means color, I do not agree. I need classical sanction. In any case, all should be applied in the context of varna. If you do not agree that one's varna is decided by one's abilities and what varna dharma one follows and instead insist on linking it to the sources of income and how much money one makes in various activities, I am afraid we do not have a common ground.
