2-John & Dan Dubie... re. How to experience and improve Rahu..

[Guest guest]

I went thru a 18 yr Rahu period

and never had any money during it...

Dan Dubie

HI Dan:It is said that Rahu acts like Saturn. This may be partially why

Rahu has the reputationof bringing such things as lack of money or

hardships. In truth, however, Rahu acts, like any planet, like it's

supposed to according to our charts.I know some who during

their Rahu period's experienced great wealth.

Then, if money is

supposed to diminish during say, someone's Saturn or Rahu period, what are

we supposed to do about it?If we know that an economic

recession is coming up; recessions, by the way are theinevitable part of a cyclical economic system, then we plan for that

predictable future.Life is cyclical. During the Moon

cycles we feel more energetic and accomplish more during the waxing's and

feel more inward, tired and needing more rest during the waning parts.If we however, plan ahead and understand the purpose of each cycle

then we can enjoymaximum progress in spite of what the cycles

are.The key is to identify whether a

planet is acting as a benefic or a malefic.If a planet

is benefic then we plan to take maximum advantage of this time.Jupiter moving into Sagittarius is one such time. For years now

I've been looking forward to this time. Like that, we

all have some benefic planets in our charts. If we identify them,

and which periods are going to be more rosy and successful; then we'll be

better off.Of course, it's our malefics that throw us off too

often. Where we have our malefics these represent parts of us which

are not thinking clearly, out of balance, and producing negative and

un-happy results.

We all have

benefices and malefics and we've come to not only experience the karmic

results of our previous actions but now, learn how to transform our

malefics into strengths.So, whether we have a so-called

negative functioning Rahu, Mars, Saturn or even Venus, we need to

understand what the 'lesson' is and be about growing within that lesson

during especially the dasa period's of those malefics.Because

I knew a little Jyotish, when I went into my Saturn Maha Dasa period in

1991 I knew that this very long period could be just horrible. In

fact during the first few years, having Saturn in the 12th, I had

indescribable hardships and financial losses.I remember at

some point turning to Saturn and saying: " Hey, I thought I was

in-tune with you? " If you've ever heard God laugh at you,

you'll know what I felt when Saturn started laughing and laughed and

laughed, non-stop for over 3 minutes.I was thunderstruck,

embarassed and pretty much humiliated. But, at the end I meekly

said: " eh, so what can I do? " He said only 2

words: " more silence.... more silence,...more

silence.... " And, that my friends was the real beginning

of my true understanding of Saturn. I immediately, began taking more

rest. I thought I was taking enough, but the very moment that I

started being more silent, rested and still; my life immediately became

better.I could hardly believe my experience, and noticed

whenever I couldn't take good enough care of myself; immediately those

negative Saturn consequences started coming back, again.

So, we need to figure out what the lesson is of our malefics

and then be about balancing, healing, and transforming them.Now, I understand that malefic periods are not curses but instead are

opportunities for personal growth. I think of malefic periods as

healing periods instead of grief periods.Only we have to

understand and learn how to adjust in the way's that our malefics are

trying to tell us.Saturn has it's specific and unique meanings

while Rahu's are slightly different.Mars, too, has a very

unique symbolism, and when one starts to be more angry, irritable, and

fiery during Mars' dasas one tends to blame one's circumstances on that

change.But, if someone if fortunate to understand their

astrology; they can realize that they are in the throes of a Mars malefic

ness and instead focus on how to balance Mars!If we had gone

to an Ayurvedic doctor they could have told us our 'pitta' was really out

of wack, and prescribe pitta pacifying solutions to our troubles.Some day, we'll look to Jyotishees like that. We'll instead go to

them, for their pitta, Mars, Rahu or Saturn pacifying solutions, or

remedies.Instead the normal, traditional Jyotish solutions are

old and tired. Eh, 'feed the birtds on Saturday. (for balancing

Saturn, for example), may be one remedy. I actually heard of an

astrologer who prescribed this to his client!

Needless to say,

the person's life and Saturn experiences did not improve!The

Vedic tradition is full, however, of some very profound and practical

human remedies that are not only time honored but more practical.Meditation now, is extremely easy, effortless and profound to learn and

practice.Ayurveda is well known for being very effective for

dealing with all kinds of health situations.Even such things

as physical yoga postures and pranayama breathing techniques are very

helpful for bringing balance and health back to the mind and body.In the future we'll realize that Jyotish is really Vedic

Psychology and a Jyotishee is part psychologist and has the ability to

help us understand what the lessons of our malefics are all about.Dan, if you'd like to understand your Rahu better please include

your date of birth information next time.Sincerely,
