Guest guest Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 Jyotish Remedies For the Moon Introduction toE-remedy… Dear Friends & Subscribers: I have to say I’m most excited about sharing my insights and suggestions for improving ‘the Moon’ with you because this has been my own planet that I’ve grown so well with over the entirety of my life. When I was born I was born with a very important 10th House Lord, Moon in my 12th House. I felt lost and I didn’t know why. Career seemed beyond me and I felt shy, withdrawn, worried and even depressive. In addition to my Moon in the 12th my Moon was also only 1 House away from my Sun which was in the 11th House. And, also it was with a deeply functioning Malefic Saturn which was also in the 12th House. Most Astrologers or Jyotishees would say my life would be wasted, full of grief and much, much unhappiness. In fact one of my first Jyotish readings in 1988 said this: “I’m sorry but you’ll never have this and you’ll never have that.” I tried to explain to him that my life had been like that but, that ever since I’d learned Vedic meditation my life and planets had been improving. I was still so inspired by his insight into my nature and tendencies that I started my study of Jyotish shortly after that. My training and up-bringing in the field of Vedic meditation, yoga, and Ayurveda also taught me some very unique lessons which I then applied to my study of Jyotish. I learned also that there was still some growth I could experience in terms of my Moon. It’s the development of the Moon that’s at the heart of many people’s needs in their charts. If you have any of these negative or so-called functionally Malefic signs with your Moon, then you too may want to put attention on Strengthening or developing your Moon. The Negative or Malefic Signs of the Moon o Shyness o Fragile emotional nature o Worry o Anxieties o Fear o Phobias o Emotional instability o Depression o Dis-ease o Disease o Lack of Happiness or Bliss Jyotish says that the Moon is one of the most important planets in our charts because it represents the major ‘attention’ and focus of our lives. So, if the Moon’s in the 2nd House of Food and Wealth then acquiring money or running a restaurant may be in our future. If our Moon is in the 3rd House then we may be a person interested in the 3rd House communication fields or something to do with art, music or performing. If our Moon is in the 4th House then we may have a deep life interest in home, property, fixed assets or Psychology and certainly peace of mind and relationship with Mother. For each House that the Moon is in there are the natural interests and characteristics of that house in the very nature of our Moon-minds. If Moon is in the 5th House we may have a fundamental interest in children, education or child education. If our Moons are in the 6th House then health, and disease may be our deepest interest. We may even be a healer, doctor or person interested in the health field. Moons in the 7th House have an abiding interest in everything to do with partnerships and marriage. Depending upon where the Cancer is in our charts; the Home of the Moon, the symbolism of that Houses moves to the house where our Moon’s are in. So if our Moons in the 7th House and its the ruler of the 10th House of work and career, then our Moon’s may mean something to do with working with our romantic or marriage partner. If our Moon is in the 8th House then we may have a need to develop the psychic or intuitive part of us and our Moon. Eight House of course having a lot to do with psychic abilities and intuition. If the Moon is in the 9th House our primary interest in life may be involved in the field of spirituality, religion or God. If the Moon is in the 10th House then one has a natural affinity with career and the public and maybe even politics as all these are the natural characteristics of the 10th House. If the Moon’s in the 11th House then we probably will have a powerful interest and propensity to fulfilling our desires, goals and dreams in life as these are the distinguishing qualities of the 11th House. And, finally if our Moons are in the 12th House we then on the positive side will have a strong life interest in 12th House endings, finality and fulfillment in life. The 12th House represents the end of life and even such things as Enlightenment as well as losses, debt and expenditures. The most common Astrological configurations associated with a weak or undeveloped, and negative functioning Moon are: 1) A Small Moon: If the Moon is Waning and between ½ Full and a New Moon or Waxing but only 1 or 2 Houses away from the Sun. 2) If the Moon is both of a smallish nature and in any of the weaker or so-called negative Houses; 6th, 8th and 12th then quite often the Moon may need to be improved. 3) Finally, if the Moon is aspected by any of the natural Malefics in Astrology; mainly Saturn, Rahu/Ketu, Mars or the Sun, then the Moon may be negatively influenced by that planet as well. And though the solution may be to try and strengthen the other negative functioning planet as well, improving the Moon is always a great benefit as well. 4) Finally, the Moon’s sign that we have is an important feature of our self-Moon development. So, we’ll need to figure out in addition to the size whether the nature of the Moon itself is part of our malefic functioning Moon’s. For example Moon in Scorpio is the primary Sign that is the ‘sign’ of a negative or especially un-happy Moon. Other examples of negative or out of balance Moon ‘Signs’ include: o Moon in Aries. Sometimes the Moon in Aries leads one to be too fast, aggressive or angry and irritable. Moon in Aries itself can be a positive Moon but if any of the negatives of Moon/Aries are present this is a sign that the nature or quality of our Moon is important to improve. o Moon in Taurus: Moon in Taurus is described as a perfect or Exalted quality of Moon-mind. Moon is in its best place in the Sign of Taurus. o Moon in Gemini: If the Moon is in Gemini one has a Gemini nature on an emotional Moon level. Typical advantages of this include being able to juggle 2, 3 or ever 4 things at a time. Gemini typically has the ability to organize and manage many things at once. Therefore quite often this can be a positive quality of the Moon in Gemini. However, if one’s Moon is out of tune with Gemini the obvious sign of that is imbalance and grief from trying to do too many things at a time. o Moon in Cancer: Moon in Cancer is the other most positive sign of the Moon after the Moon in Taurus. Moon in Cancer individuals have a giving, compassionate even Motherly nature. However, if there is any imbalance of Cancer one can find one self giving too much or not giving enough to oneself if the Moon is small or afflicted negatively even if the Moon’s in Cancer. o Moon in Leo: Moon in Leo is not one of the most positive signs for the Moon. Typical negative consequences of the Moon/Leo will be bossy ness, self-centeredness and ego challenges or problems. However, the positive side of Moon/Leo can be a leadership, or enterprising nature. o Moon in Virgo: Like the Moon/Leo, the Moon in Virgo has some definite disadvantages as well. Virgo seeks what is ideal or perfect. And, when the Moon is in Virgo quite often the person is too much of a perfectionist or self-critical or critical of others. o Moon in Libra: The Moon in Libra is one of the most positive places for the Moon. Generally the person is very interested in seeking Libra harmony and this placement makes a person a good negotiator, counselor or even teacher. o Moon in Scorpio: The Moon in Scorpio is the most difficult Moon sign for people to have. The most common signs of negative Moon/Scorpio energy include a resentful or angry nature. Scorpio often time feels things very deeply and when the Moon’s in Scorpio or there are other negative Scorpio planets then one can be judgmental towards others. o Moon in Sagittraius: The Moon in Sagittarius generally is one of the happier places for the Moon. I’ve never found any negative quality or descriptions due to the Moon in Sagittarius. The typically happy and positive signs of Moon in Sagittarius are a love for knowledge, learning and traveling in the mind or World. o Moon in Capricorn: The Moon in Capricorn generally is a good place for the Moon. However, the signs of imbalance of the Moon/Capricorn energy include the drive for too much Capricorn ambition, ambitiousness or fame. Otherwise, the positive sign of Moon/Capricorn is a positive ambitious or achievement oriented nature. o Moon in Aquarius: The Moon in Aquarius generally is pretty positive. Moon in Aquarius people are creative and unconventional even non-traditional. The only negative I can imagine associated with the Moon/Aquarius would be if the person felt like they had to push onto others their unusual and creative Moon/Aquarius perspective. Otherwise, the Moon/Aquarius nature has a good ability to see the creative, and ‘out of the box’ solutions and is one of the unique energies of inventors and creative thinkers. o Moon in Pisces: The Moon in Pisces is another one of the more positive placements of the Moon. In its positive mode the person with the Moon in Pisces enjoys freedom and thinks in terms of fulfillment, endings, completions and even such things as Enlightenment. Sometimes the Moon in Pisces is very indicative of artistic people, especially music writers and poets. Now, find yourself with your Moon. If any of the negatives of the Moon are there either because of a small ness of Moon or malefic aspect or even any negative qualities of the Moon sign; then your Moon is likely to benefit from putting attention on Strengthening or Developing Your Moon. The Moon is the mind, heart, emotions, emotional nature or intuition. The Moon has the most amazing potential. If you’d like to develop the potential of your Moon as well these are some of the descriptions of an evolving or developing Moon. The Full Development of the Moon Moon represents the mind and the full potential of the Moon represents the full Development of one’s consciousness or Mind. In Vedic Knowledge there are many wonderful descriptions and stories of what an evolving or Enlightened individual Mind or Moon will be like. When one practices any number of special Vedic techniques of consciousness expansion like meditation one can develop one’s Mind-Moon. These are some of the personal experiences that come to the Moon-mind when one practices meditation. Also, we’ll also describe what it’s like for the Moon-mind to arrive in the state of expanding consciousness or even Higher States of Consciousness due to such things as meditation. Meditation Meditation is one of the most powerful techniques to improve the mind. Next we’ll list some of the experiences and qualities of the Moon when meditation is practiced. Positive Moon-Meditation Experiences Meditation is primarily a mental technique and is practiced either on the level of Mercury or the Moon or both. For example, contemplation is a Mercury practice. It’s practiced primarily on the level of the Mercury intellect and involves what is called the associate level of meaning. However, there’s another kind of mental, meditation thinking which is called transcendental meditation. Transcending types of meditation involves taking the mind from the more surface level of the Mercury mind to deeper and deeper levels of the Moon mind. If the Moon represents the emotional mind and even intuition then those activities which are practiced in the Moon-mind will have the affect of enlivening and unfolding the very nature of the Moon. These experiences include: o Mental and Emotional Expansion When one meditates one learns to turn one’s attention in an inner direction. We move away from thinking on the level of associative thinking and we sink deeper and deeper into a level of mental quietness and expansion. As the mind turns inward it moves towards deeper and deeper levels of the mind, closer and closer to what is called the source of thought. Pure Consciousness Vedic Knowledge teaches that within everyone’s experience and mind is a Full Potential of mind which is literally infinite. For example this source of thought has been described as a field of all possibilities. There is a state which modern day Physics calls the Unified Field which is the true source of the entire universe. All galaxies, Cosmic reality even atoms come in and out of that field of pure energy which is located beyond the sub-atomic level. Some, modern day scientists are beginning to speculate that the lofty descriptions of the infinite potential of the Vedic mind are in fact the mind of any individual who learns to enliven their sub-atomic mental Unified Field within. The Unified Field exists underneath every aspect of life and nature so it makes sense that it could be developed or experienced on a personal, individual level. Perhaps this is where the historical descriptions of Enlightenment come from in the Vedic literature. Experiences of the Source of Thought Pure Consciousness As one begins to meditate one can easily and naturally have the direct experience of this Full Potential of one’s consciousness or Mind. Each meditation that allows us to tap some more of that inner potential will have a direct influence on our individual Mind or Moon. If the Moon is the emotional or non-linear mind and feelings then as the mind expands during meditation this can have the most positive results for everyone’s Moon. These below descriptions are some of the results of the experiences due to such things as meditation. o Greater Calmness o Greater peacefulness o More stillness of mind o Greater Intuition o More Clarity of mind o Greater ability to focus o Relief of mental stress, worry, anxiety etc. o Greater Experiences of Inner Joy, happiness and Bliss Vision of the Full Potential of the Moon-Mind In addition to understanding how the Moon-mind can be enlivened to improve the Moon-mind it’s also helpful to reflect on what a fully developed Moon-mind will be like. When the full potential of the Moon-mind has been enlivened due to meditation the following will be some of the amazing benefits to come to us on a level of our emotional nature or Moon-mind. o Complete Calmness of the Moon-mind When the full development of the mind or Moon has been developed then the ‘transcendental’ level of pure consciousness is found being lived 24 hours a day through all the normal 3 states of Consciousness. Normally we go through Waking, Dreaming or Sleeping. But, there’s no hint of an inner level of bliss or calmness. In fact after awaking from sleep as we go into activity the silence of the night dissipates as our day unfolds. As a result in the evening again we have to rest to re-enliven our mental and emotional health and sanity. When the practice of meditation progresses a time will come where the full potential of the inner or transcendental realm gets enlivened and developed for practical use in our every day life. As a result of this experience we have the full benefit of the ever-still, creative and expanded pure consciousness state to be lived and enjoyed along with our Waking, Dreaming and Deep sleep states. o Powerful Psychic or Intuitive Abilities When the full potential of the mind-Moon has been developed an unbelievable level of intuition and spontaneous knowingness will be found. Practical experience shows that regular experience of meditation moves one towards ever increasing frequency of intuition and even psychic abilities. o Expanded Creative Nature Creativity and inventiveness comes from an expanded and silent inner nature. When the mind itself gets enlivened due to the expansion of consciousness one of the many mental and Moon abilities that develops includes a more expanded and creative person. o Peacefulness When the 24 hour, full-potential of the mind gets developed then all the negatives of the Moon-mind will disappear. As the full potential of mental health gets developed then all the expressions of the lack of full Moon-mind; namely anxieties, fear, phobias, worry and apprehension will be gone. o Physical Health As mental health improves this will have the most positive affect on physical health as well. Modern day doctors and health educators know that most dis-eases and diseases are literally caused or greatly complicated by mental and emotional stress. In fact it’s often believed described that 70% of all diseases are due to lack of mental peace or stress. o Relationships Will Improve There’s a common expression in Relationship philosophy that goes like this: “Giving is the basis of receiving.” In other words how much we receive depends upon how much we have given. Those who are the most successful in their inter-personal relations are those who have the most strong or Benefic Moons or Venus’ in their charts. When the unused, latent potential of the mind gets created it enlivens in us an ever present ability to give. As it turns out, not only is giving the basis of receiving. But, giving is determined by ‘having ness’. In other words the ability to give is dependent upon how strong and well developed we are! Each step that we take towards more and more development of mind, consciousness and our Moons, the more we gain the ability to give! In the e-remedy of the Moon which will come next we’ll describe in more detail all the benefits that come from developing the Moon-mind. In addition to the practice of the holistic development of the Moon-mind there are a number of other Prescriptions and Remedies or Remedial Measures that we can learn and practice which will help us develop and strengthen our Moon-minds. These main remedies include: #1 Becoming More In-tune with the Moon’s Cycles The Moon itself is an Astrological reality that we can study and become more in-tune with. There is a Waxing cycle and there is a Waning cycle. Generally, most people do not pay attention to the important knowledge and wisdom of being more in-tune with these two basic cycles. In the e-remedy article we’ll discuss all the ways in which we can become more in-tune with the every day Moon cycles. #2 The Moon in our charts; in size and in Sign quality reflect what we need to be doing personally to literally enliven or develop our Moons. There are two ways of developing the Moon. Through meditation and other consciousness techniques the holistic nature of the Moon can be enlivened. However, the Moon can also be enlivened specifically on the level of our individual Moons by attention and focus to the specific Moon situations in our charts. In the e-remedy article we’ll discuss each negative scenario of the Moon and what the intrinsic lessons are of each. So, whether you have a small, or Waning Moon or difficulties with your Moon’s sign, or negative planets aspecting or affecting our Moon; all these scenarios will be discussed. In addition practical and experienced remedies, remedial measures and prescriptions will be given to address every malefic situation of the Moon. So, pay attention to your emotions, emotional nature and how you feel to determine whether your Moon needs improvement. If you’re experiencing any of the negatives of the Moon, or any of the lack of full potential of the Moon then there’s a good chance that you can benefit from developing or strengthening your Moon.
