Are you referring to Vedic or western transits? Obviously, as I've been a

western astrologer for 30 years (professional for much of that) I'm well

acquainted with the way the transits affect both my chart and those of

clients. However, I'm currently learning the implications of the way the

planets affect us through the medium of Vedic astrology, and of course this

is the same but different. One of the valuable things I've learned is

turning the chart to observe transits by taking the moon or sun as the first

house, or doing so for a particular planet to see how its affairs are

affected. These are techniques we could apply to western astrology, but

often we don't.

 

Generally, Jyotish says we should look at the Transits from the Moon chart,

however, I've found the Rasi, Chart, or Rising Sign, lst house, works better.

 

It's like I experience my body, as my first house, and I notice, that the Transits, moving

through the different houses, seems to fit the Rasi chart better.

 

For example, I have a Libra Rising, (Jyotish) therefore, my Taurus is in my 8th house,

and each month for all these years now, I've done a chart of each day, and watched how it

affected me;....what I noticed fairly quickly was whenever the Moon went in Taurus, where it's supposed to be Exalted...I felt okay,...but not 'exalted' as I thought I should.

 

And then, I noticed that when the Moon would go into Gemini, which is a much less 'strong'

sign, because it was transiting my 9th House, it felt very good...

 

and then, into Cancer, then, it felt great....as I felt, it moving through my 10th House...

Well, Rahu was very spiritual for me too. I've lived with spiritual and

psychic inclinations most of my life, but during Rahu I experienced a 180

degree turning in the seat of consciousness. I too learned to meditate (or

at least to do so through a specific channel), practising Buddhist

meditation for several years. I also came into witchcraft during that time.

 

I can't remember if you sent me your date of birth info. It would be fun to look at each

other's charts while we talk back and forth...

In my case I simply let go of it and moved on. I decided I didn't want to

write any more pagan books, and also that I wanted to return to a much less

structured form of spirituality. Guru dasha is wonderful!

 

Guru is much more wonderful....

 

and I did so much of my teaching in Jupiter dasa.....

 

then, when I went into my sani mahadasa, such a huge shift..unbelievable...

 

It took me almost 5 years to finally psyche out how better to adjust...

cuz...sani's...sooooo different from jupiter...

 

now, that I understand that Sani, is inward, where jupiter is outward...

I'm fareinyg much better...

Well, obviously not, otherwise I'd be talking myself into fearing Rahu, and

I don't ;-) By the same token I actually love Saturn.

 

Cool, me too, though it took me a long time...

 

I have Jupiter in Pisces in my 6th and sani, in the 12th...

so I was literally lost to sani's benefic qualites...till I had been meditating for a

long time, and then, when I learned sani, through Jyotish, he started...to be more

positive...for me....

I totally agree with that!

Well this is why I've been so explicit about certain parts of my chart...to

try to stimulate discussion so we may all learn, and in the hopes that

others will be encouraged to share as well.

Mark, I still don't have Parashara's Light. However, using western software,

you have a very close conjunction of Moon and Neptune in the 12th. Very

devotional and diffuse. No wonder you had to make friends with Saturn: there

he is in your 11th house, earthing you through your activity in groups and

organisations, thus allowing that very focused, fiery, enthusiastic Mars in

Leo to blaze a trail through your 9th house, bringing your very

individualistic spiritual philosophy out into the world.
