Guest guest Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 Hi everyone *waves* I've been on the sidelines for a while and I'm so confused on the Sidereal Astrology.....since I understand my chart in the standard astrology I was wondering if you guys could help me understand it in Sidereal astrology. I'm wondering if I had something that I know to give me a perspective and grasp of the differences as well as some sort of grasp on sidereal astrology. My birthdate is 10/31/68 12:08 pm in San Diego CA USA Thanks for your help in my possible understanding! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 Hi Everyone, I feel the same way as Tanya. I know there are no quick explenations, perhaps someone can tell us how the sidereal houses are set up, and tell us a little about the mansions. In the Bagavad Gita I have read about sattvic, rajasic, and tamasic traits. I have heard these terms used in sidereal astrology. What is the relationship does Sidereal Astrology have to The Gita or The Mahabharata? Thank You Sincerely, Jollie Recent Activity 1 New Members Visit Your Group New web site? Drive traffic now.

I know there are no quick explenations, perhaps someone can tell us how the sidereal houses are set up... Jollie, this depends upon the astrologer. I use an equal house system with the cusp as the center of the house. This means, for example, that any planet 15 degrees above or below the ascendant is in the first house. This is a very old Indian system. Many Jyotish astrologers simply use sign-as-house. The ascendant sign is the first house, and so on around the chart. Some tropical astrologers even use this system now. >>, and tell us a little about the mansions. Chris just posted a couple of links to mansion information. But all these meanings have to be taken with caution. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. The mansions are used mainly for the Moon. That is traditional in India, but many western astrologers use them for other planets as well. For example, if several planets are in a mansion of Mercury, this might mean those planets will express in a Mercurial way in writing, study or research, or even travel. > In the Bagavad Gita I have read about sattvic, rajasic, and tamasic traits. I have heard these terms used in sidereal astrology. What is the relationship does Sidereal Astrology have to The Gita or The Mahabharata? No relationship in particular to those scriptures. Sometimes the mansions are considered sattvic, rajasic or tamasic, and sometimes the houses are given those meanings. I don't pay much attention to them. Possibly the mansions have these 'guna' traits. Jollie, I've been meanning to check for dasas (planetary periods) for the possibility that you might move, but haven't got around to it.

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 Hi...thank you so much...u explained it very well. i have been away for a little while so I will go back a few days and read the explenation about the Mansions further. its very interestin, yet i think that the equal house system is so much easier. My teacher will continue teaching me other systems, but I need to get the Tropical system well understood before i continue. Thanks again Sincerely, Jollie p.s by the way, during the past few days there have been major social changes in my life. I have transformed from a homebound hermit to a sought afeter socialite in a matter of days. Everything that occurs in my life is to the extreme. Could it be a Plutonian influence in my chart.. I do have Pluto conjunct Uranus in The Tropical chart...what ever it is I welcome it!!! Access over 1 million songs - Music Unlimited.
