I tried to word the report to make it understandable, as you have some background in the study of the stars. So I am glad to have succeeded to whatever extent. Writing PM for your birth time was a typo; AM was used. If you are feeling detached and fearful, that may be one of the lessons of your chart and life: to understand fear and rebuild faith if possible. When Jupiter is debilitated and the 9L of faith, and grace is weak or afflicted, the person does not usually feel spiritually or physically protected from negative unseen forces, and I believe this is what you're experiencing. The irony is that these are the people who usually need the grace the most but are too disinclined or discouraged to rebuild it or pursue it in themselves. But to do so can feel like abandoning oneself to one's fate, and it's possible that's what their life-time is partially about. Spiritual remedies are about setting new positive causes in motion--the product of free will--but if the person is too tired and exhausted, there may be no energy or motivation to do these practices. But if I think that one way to rebuilt one's faith is to do these spiritual practices on behalf of others -- that is, if there's this feeling that nothing will make any difference in life for the person with the illness. 1. PRASANN 2: WELL, I'M STAYING AWAY FROM MY PARENTS, RAHU- KETU TRANSIT STAYS FOR ABOUT 1.6 MONTHS IN A SIGN. Currently the Nodes are transiting both your Sun and Moon, as karaka of your parents, and this can indicate your desire to be away from them. This transit ends when the Nodes move into Leo/Aquarius. NOW HOW DID I HAVE AN ATTACK IN MARCH 2005??? KETU IS IN VIRGO ( MY MOON SIGN) FOR NOW BUT IN MARCH 2005 IT WAS IN LEO PERHAPS? The Nodes were in Pisces/Virgo, but transiting Sun as the troublesome 8L of obstructions and chronic illness was beginning to aspect your Mercury, then Venus, and then it's own Sun position on your birthday. Plus, transiting Mercury was aspecting your natal Sun as 8L at the same time. The 8L can indicate problems and flare-ups, but not always! There's always more than one transit that must be taken into account or one can falsely expect the worst at all times. SO HOW DO WE RECKON THEIR MOVEMENT FOR ATTACKS IN FUTURE?? Well, after the Nodes finish their transit to your Sun and Moon, they move into Leo/Aquarius and aspect your Venus and Mercury going into January. So this is a good reason to do something positive in your outlook and in your physical care before those transits take place. If one just lives defensively waiting for the worst to happen, what kind of a life-style is that? What about being proactive in one's healthcare or in finding inner resources of faith and resolve that one might not have suspected? The choice is yours, otherwise life looks bleak and gets bleaker through passive resistance. While it's not easy, it still remains an option and can perhaps reduce the level of fear and suffering. 3. PRASANN 2: THIS SOUNDS GOOD AND INCIDENTALLY I HAVE QUITE OF BLUE IN MY WARDROBE...BUT OF LATE HAD OBSERVED MY LIKING FOR GREY! Well, just so you know, the smoky grey colors are given to the Nodes. Rahu and Ketu love grey and you might consider whether theirs is the best energy to feed. Speaking astrologically, in terms of color therapy, it is considered to be much more beneficial to wear clearly defined colors, such as navy blue for Saturn, royal blue for Venus, and emerald for Mercury. Opinions vary, but according to some astrologers, the favorable colors for Capricorn are bright black, white, bright brown, all shades of blue, green, and variegated colors (a mixture of colors). The unfavorable ones are steel grey, dull smoke grey, orange, pink, yellow, and faded colors. BUT HERE SOME ASTROLOGERS INCLUDING THE ONE WHO ADVISED SHUKRA YANTRA CUM STONE (A PENDANT) REFUSED TO STRENGTHEN SATURN THOUGH. BECAUSE I HAD MADE SIMILAR INFERENCE THAT IF SATURN IS BENEFIC AND IS MY LAGNA LORD THEN WHY NOT I STRENGTHEN IT? BECAUSE I ALSO SEE THIS AS ONE OF THE REASON FOR MY WEAK KNEES (MENISCUS RUPTURE) AND DENTAL PROBLEMS. BUT MAY BE BLUE SAPPHIRE IS A SCARY STONE IN INDIA. Again, opinions vary, but I have noticed that in charts where Saturn is strong by sign and has a strong dispositor, the person has sound bones and teeth. It's when Saturn is weak that it indicates problems with the teeth and bones; and a gem for Saturn is said to both strengthen it for good and to lessen its qualities as a natural malefic. But some astrologers are afraid to strengthen a natural malefic, such as Saturn or Mars, under any circumstances, believing that it makes these planets more malefic even if they rule the good houses of 1, 5, and 9. I am not of that opinion or there would never have been gems assigned to Mars and Saturn. Saturn can very often work for good! But it usually makes the person work like a dog in order to get its benefits. In your chart, Saturn is your ascendant lord and it limits you unless you are working on your health, which is one way of strengthening your Saturn. I WAS ADVISED TO WEAR A PENDANT OF SAFED PUKHRAJ (WHITE SAPPHIRE) AND AMETHYST PROBABLY FOR DEBILITATED JUPITER AND STRENGTHENING SATURN. I DID NOT WEAR THIS ONE. AS I AM ALREADY WEARING THE SHUKRA YANTRA. Again, opinions vary, but I consider Jupiter as 12L a functional malefic, and I never recommend a gem for any functional malefic planet. I feel that it adds to their power to cause harm. They seem to responds better to mantras and pujas to lessen their malefic intent. I would view your decision not to wear a Jupiter gem as a wise one. On the other hand, the Shukra mantra sounds fine because Venus can use the extra help, as it rules the sign of Taurus where Saturn is placed and makes both planets happier and stronger. ALSO I AM WEARING A PENDANT WHICH HAS PEARL,EMERALD AND RUDRAKSH IN IT. IS PEARL OKAY AND ANYWAYS I GUESS THEY WILL ASK ME TO WEAR DURING RAHU-MOON This would be fine in my view. AND DO YOU RECKON ME TAKING THE SHUKRA STONE-YANTRA OFF WHEN RAHU-SURYA COMES. Not necessarily--that is, if it's a good Shukra stone. High quality gems are the best and they can be very expensive. But if it's as flawless as possible, preferably unheated, the gem or or other Shukra talisman should be viewed as a plus. AND THEN SHOULD I WEAR SOMETHING OR IS SUN STRONG ENOUGH TO HANDLE RAHU. Never, in my opinion. Sun as 8L is the most malefic planet in your chart, and its transits helped set off your condition in March of 2005. Look at that period and see. Instead, the spiritual propitiation for the Sun is when you do something like helping your father or elderly men. So even if you do not see eye to eye with your father, it's good karma for you to do something for him, even if it's to say a prayer or mantra on his behalf. But no gem for the Sun, please. AND BELIEVE THAT IF RAHU IS REPRESENTING JUPITER HERE THEN THESE TWO ARE FRIENDS. Jupiter is debilitated and 12L of losses, expenses, and confinement. Plus it is afflicting your ascendant. I don't think this sounds like a friend to you. Plus when one functional malefic, Jupiter, combines its energy with the other trouble-maker malefics, Rahu and Ketu, they are a not friends either. This is why it's good to note when the transiting Nodes aspect your natal Jupiter, transiting Jupiter aspects your natal Nodes, or the transiting Nodes aspect transiting Jupiter. All three combinations would not be viewed as a friendly period for you, and you would want to look to the other functional benefic transits for protective energies, as from Saturn, Moon, Mercury and Venus. AS PER YOU WHAT IS CLOSEST TO-BE-ALERT SITUATION TO HAVE AN ATTACK OR SMTHG I think that's the wrong focus to take. I think a better approach to take is this: "What small measures can I take in my life to improve my faith, outlook and overall physical condition?" Otherwise you're just a sitting duck waiting for the next bad aspect from the Sun or the Nodes to perhaps worsen your condition. I WONDER NOW WHEN I TALK TO ASTROLOGERS NOW AFTER SHARING MS... ALL TALK ABOUT SEVERAL THINGS AND MARAK AND KASHTA AND MAHAMRITUANJAYA MANTRAS AND WHAT NOT... BUT A YEAR AGO NO ONE TOLD ME ANYTHING OF A CHRONIC AILMENT!!!!!! AS PER YOU STRAIGHT THERE IS A CHRONIC AILMENT? Astrologers not predicting a serious medical condition is the norm not the exception. If they actually saw it in the chart, how many astrologers would want to tell their clients that in a year from now they will be diagnosed with MS? I happen to feel that medical astrology is a specialty and these astrologers are the best one's to see potential serious health problems in the chart. But very few specialize in it, and in general it's not the astrologer's fault if he or she can't predict some of these trying conditions. It might not have made any difference in the life of the person coming down with the disease, if the disease is of a serious karma nature, and was destined to happen anyway. Nevertheless, this doesn't mean that astrology cannot be helpful after the fact, such as in the discussion we're having now. (I also happen to have a chronic health condition that was never predicted by any astrologer or psychic, and one happened to be an Indian astrologer and palmist. Even he missed it, and this was only about a year before the condition manifested.) AND THERE S NO CHANCE THAT MY MS COULD BE BENIGN? JUST A FEW ATTACKS AND ITS GONE NOW? I think you are the only one who can answer that, and you know enough about your chart to do so. AM I TO HAVE SOME DEBILITY...WHICH PART???? I think you already know that too. ITS TOO EARLY FOR ME TO RETIRE....AND IN INDIA THERE IS NO INSURANCE COVERAGE TOO FOR THIS...… All the more not to surrender to despair or complete loss of faith. What Capricorn ascendant wants to leave life without its share of accomplishments? 4. PRASANN 2: ISNT MERCURY MALEFIC FOR ME??? BECAUSE IN FACT THAT WAS FIRST THING TO FOR ME TO OBSERVE THAT MERCURY IS WEAK OR AFFLICTED BY KETU THEN MAY BE WEARING AN EMERALD SHOULD HELP. For a Capricorn ascendant, Mercury plays a dual role as 9L of faith and good fortune and 6L of potential illness. I give the weight of Mercury to the 9L because Virgo is the mooltatrikona sign for Mercury--it's dominant sign--making it a functional benefic planet. Plus, Mercury, Venus and Saturn are friends and members of the same planetary camp. Nevertheless, Mercury relates to the nerves and rules the 6H of ill-health. BUT, once again, I would view Mercury's health-related problems to the fact that it is weak and afflicted, and not because it happens to also rule the 6H. Ketu's aspect to Mercury is one of the signatures for MS if Saturn and Venus happen to be weak or afflicted as well. BUT AGAIN THE SAME GUY WHO GAVE ME SHUKRA YANTRA SAID I SHOULD NOT WEAR EMERALD. He was probably scared off because Mercury rules the 6H as well as the 9H. But if you fail to strengthen Mercury, you may lose some of the spiritual benefits of faith and grace of the 9H, and that's why I happen to feel that Mercury (and Venus!) can always be safely strengthened for a Capricorn lagna. I DID TRY TELLING HIM COMPLETELY ABOUT MS...DO NOT KNOW HOW MUCH HE UNDERSTOOD. IN FACT HE IS QUITE A SENIOR PRACTICING PERSON. ON ASKING FOR MY LIFE SPAN HE SAID IT TO BE MIDDLE AGED!! I happen to think that it's more important how well one lives than how long. On the other hand, it doesn't take a genius to realize that most serious health conditions can inhibit the longevity of one's life if passively endured. 6. PRASANN 2: MY IMMUNE RESPONSE RATHER GETS HYPERACTIVE, THUS ATTACK NERVES. SHOULD I SEE IT AS...RAHU- VENUS....ATTACKS ON EYES AND MS DIAGNOIS.… Eye concerns are related to 2H affairs and the weakness of Venus and the affliction of Ketu to Mercury and Saturn as a weak dispositor. That's why planetary remedies have been suggested to better help guide you from within through these transit periods. RAHU BALANCE MD (RAHU-SUN, RAHU-MOON, RAHU-MARS) CAUSES MORE ATTACKS WITH SHANI SADE SATI STARTING ON AND THUS I AM BOUND TO TAKE INTERFERONS AND THUS MY LIVER ETC IS AFFECTED AND I AM TO DEFINITELY BE HOSPITALIZED IN JUPITER- JUPITER PD. AND MAY BE JUPITER-SATURN LEADS TO SOME PERMANENT DEBILITY..… AND THEN IS SATURN MD.… I think you're projecting a very fearful and limiting future for yourself by focusing on these issues rather than what small measures you can take to improve your outlook and physical health, including your overall general health. WHAT IS THE SAFEST AND BEST THING THAT YOU ADVISE FOR ME FOR: RAHU-SUN RAHU-MOON RAHU-MARS JUPITER-JUPITER AND THE MD? APART FROM THE BELOW ONES... Meditation and prayer. But not the meditation of fear and apprehension; but rather, "Divine Intelligence, teach me from within what the lesson is here! What can I learn from this to add meaning to my life? What is the GIFT of this condition?" Otherwise, you're doing what? - watching for the next transit of Rahu and Ketu. The body heals at the alpha level of brain wave, and this is what meditation helps to do. (Look into the alpha work of Jose Silva for more information on the relationship between meditation and health.) HANDLING AND ANALYSING TRANSITS IS THE MOST DIFFICULT PART I would use them to get an overall sense of what they're doing, but not hand your life over to them out of fear. The mantra for Saturn has a way of connecting the person with the higher energy of this planet. The one I like the best is: OM SRI SHANAISWARAYA SWAHA, and it's available for anyone who wants to use it. It's one of the Saturn mantras for good health and healing. 7. YES THIS POINT IS BIT TEDIOUS FOR ME TO CALCULATE....AS I MENTIONED. WOULD YOU BE ABLE TO HELP ME OUT ON THIS. LIKE SUN'S ASPECT IN TRANSIT OR NATAL SUN? EG. IF RAHU IS TO TRANSIT INTO AQUARIUS THIS NOVEMBER 8, 2006 THAT MEANS THERE IS NO ASPECT OF SUN THERE BUT VENUS AND MERCURY ARE IN 2H IN THE SIGN OF AQUARIUS. AND BOTH THESE PLANETS AS WELL THE LORD SATURN ARE WEAK. SO PROBABLY AN ATTACK??.… BCOZ RAHU REMAINS IN A SIGN FOR 1.6 YRS I.E. APRIL 2008. What I suggest is that you just happen to track the transit of the Sun to your natal planets and particularly to Jupiter, Rahu and Ketu. Then just take it easier on those days without expecting a full blown attack. According to our expectations we can sometimes make matters worse and manufacture negative toxins in our body. The mind has great impact on the body, so it pays to focus on what we want to attract in life. Do we want to resist ill-health, or *attract* good health? Big difference. AND THEN AGAIN IT TRANSITS THROUGH MY LAGNA IE CAPRICORN WHERE JUPITER AND MARS (OCCUPANTS) AND LORD SATURN ARE ALL NOT ABLE TO DO GOOD...SO ANOTHER ATTACK??.....THOUGH SUN DOES NOT ASPECT THIS. These transits are way off in the future and a great deal can be done ahead of time to neutralize some of their negative effects. THEN TRANSITS SAGITTARIUS OCCUPIED BY HIMSELF...ANOTHER ATTACK?? Another transit years away... (AND MAY BE THESE ATTACKS WILL PUSH ME FOR INTERFERONS AND THUS JUPITER IN ITS MD MAY GIVE MORE DAMAGE TO LIVER, NERVES, BLOOD.…….) Here are some options to look into that have helped many. I would also recommend acupuncture treatments for those with MS but only under a doctor's advisement. Resources: http://www.healthy.net/asp/templates/Article.asp?Id=729 SIMILARLY KETU IS TO COME IN SIGN LEO WHICH IS RULED BY SUN AND I DO NOT KNOW IF SUN IS ASPECTING IT. THEN TAURUS THEN ARIES..… Again, many months away. So you can either do what you can to come to terms with the weaknesses of your chart, and balance them out, or you can worry and fret about every major or minor transit that comes along. I couldn't live that way myself. 12. SO I GATHER THAT VENUS WAS OVERPOWERED BY RAHU AND MAY BE THIS MS THING HAPPENED....AND WEARING DIAMOND AND EMERALD AND MAY BE AMETHYST/BLUE SAPPHIRE SHOULD HELP ME...WHAT ABOUT SADE SATI ...WOULDNT IT BE BAD FOR MY PARENTS IF STRENGTHEN SATURN NOW? Not in my opinion, no. The sooner the better, and it needs to be a good gem, as flawless as possible, even if it's small. And there are alternative gems you can consider from any high quality gem dealer: http://www.astrologicalgem.com/ (This is not an advertisement.) I SHOULD NOT WEAR YELLOW?? Not recommended because it rules the 12H of losses and weakening influences. Plus, it also afflicts the degree of your ascendant and rules the 12H where malefic Rahu happens to reside. Work with Jupiter using mantras to bring yourself in harmony with its higher nature and without strengthening it for harm. IS SUN EVIL FOR ME? THEN RAHU-SUN WOULD BE BAD PERIOD... Sun is 8L of chronic illness and not considered a friendly planet for Capricorn rising. Rahu-Sun could indicate further disagreements with your parents that would be good karma for you to work out. AND SHANI SADE SATI AROUND THEN WOULD HELP OR WOULD MAKE IT WORSE? The effects of Sade Sati vary depending upon whether Saturn is friendly to your chart or not. Both Saturn and the Moon are friendly planets for you and this makes Sade Sati somewhat more manageable. Getting through Sade Sati is not the problem here; it's the basic strength of the natal planets and whatever you may plan to do about them. In my opinion, you are overemphasizing the importance of the transits at the expense of dealing with the health indications of MS in your natal chart. The natal chart is the key, not the transits. Otherwise, it's like looking through the wrong end of the telescope and getting a distorted view of life. THINK I SHOULD NOT WEAR ANYTHING FOR SUN...NOT REQUIRED ISNT IT? Not recommended for the reasons stated before: it's the most malefic planet for Capricorn rising as 8L of chronic illnesses. RAHU-MARS? WHAT IF I AM ADVISED TO WEAR RED CORAL THEN?? AND WHAT SHOULD I WEAR DURING COMPLETE JUPITER MD Strengthening the benefic planets of Saturn, Venus and Mercury help support the proper function of the functional malefic planets in one's chart, and it's generally not recommended to wear gems for the functional malefics. One astrologer's opinion. I MIGHT HAVE GONE OVERBOARD WITH MY ENDLESS QUESTIONS. It's okay. I happened to have had the time to complete our exchange. BUT I'M JUST JOSTLING TRYING TO IMPROVISE KARMA IF I COULD... Yes, you are...and I think it's wonderful. And if you have little faith for yourself, have it for others and serve them in unexpected ways to help break through this karma of health, if for this life-time or the next. For do we all not choose our charts? How did you happen to get that Jupiter? Or your Saturn placement? Or are we merely victims of fate living in a meaningless universe? As for myself, I have to view life and the universe as positive and meaningful or man would never have been given the wonderful tool of astrology to help understand his fate and activate his powers of choice and freewill. I DO CHARITIES TO THE NEEDY AND HELP PEOPLE...NOT REALLY MUCH INTO TEMPLES AND MANTRAS. I think this is exceptionally good karma for yourself.
