Subscriber’s Comments and

Experiences:

 

From Terry Mid-western US “Mark, I felt very rough today,

(yesterday 10/8) I mean I got a lot done but inside felt very uneasy

and troubled. Is this due to the Rahu influence you’ve been

telling us about?”

 

“Terry:

Absolutely! When we can predict

time after time the turning of nature’s clock and its predictable

effects upon us;

then, we can feel confident that

these are the real reasons why we’re feeling the way that we

do. In the case of Moon feeling uneasy or rough due to both

Rahu and Mars’ simultaneous influences, then know that

there are things we can do to minimize and

even eliminate the

negatives!”

 

I went on to suggest that she spend

more time in meditation,

Which Terry’s very familiar

with. I suggested her

allowing

Herself more time to create or

enliven more inherent bliss

Of the Moon mind, until she

counters Rahu’s negative influence.

 

Later in the day I talked to her

again and she said the way she

Accomplished this, was by

enlivening her sense of inner silence,

And that had a very powerful

influence upon her roughness!

 

REMEMBER:

 

Rahu represents how we handle our

desires. So, if we

experience

Any of the negative sides of Rahu

this means we’re slightly out of tune with Rahu’s positive

nature.

 

Rahu’s positive nature is to

be silent amidst desiring.

 

So, if we’re under the grip

of Rahu’s negative side,

‘roughness, obsessions,

compulsions and addictions;

then, know that you’re under

Rahu’s negative grip,

and nothing good comes from

that!

 

Why is Rahu more negative then

positive, you might ask?

 

Because too many people in the

world today are not in-tune

Enough with their inner silence so

desires tend to be obsessive,

Or rule us!

Vs. us being in control of

them!

 

Who’s the real

master?

 

That’s a Rahu question we can

ask ourselves!

 

Yesterday and today are two great

days to figure this out about yourself and Rahu!

 

 

 

 

 

Now,

the Details:

 

Moon’s at the 15th

degree of Capricorn

Today 10/9/08 5am,

 

How did you feel yesterday, (10/8)

? Moon’s now much closer to Rahu’s exact 22nd

degree in Capricorn. If you felt the roughness of Moon moving

into Capricorn, yesterday

Then today might be rough

too. I talked to several people yesterday who had

rough days and gave them so remedies as to what to do to try and

eliminate that roughness due to Rahu’s close affect upon the

Moon emotions. (See r’s experiences and comments

below)

 

IE. The deeper

we go inside the more all the outer influences will

influence

Us

less and less!

 

 

Mercury

Mercury’s still in Retrograde

motion; which means PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION, TO All

Decision Makings….!

This is especially important because

also Mercury & the Sun are completely combust at the same

time!

 

Tomorrow, October 9th,

Mercury will be at the 17th degree of Virgo, while Sun’s

at the 22nd degree, also in Virgo…

In other words, Mercury’s

combustion is still going on!

(THOUGH NOW, 5 DEGREES

APART,

means less of a feeling of heat

or combustion between

Mercury and the Sun.)

Typical, negative results are that

the intellect doesn’t work right now or is sluggish, to say

the least.

So, if you have frustrations with

your mind, thinking, and especially decision makings then this is probably

why. Sun continues going ahead and Mercury lessening in

degrees over the next few days due to its Retrograde motion so this will

quickly subside too!

Though if you don’t feel

Mercury’s combustion sometimes this is because Mercury is least

affected by combustion,

Since Mercury is always so close to

the Sun.

 

PRESCRIPTION:

 

Rest your wonderful

intellect. Be easy, let it rest. Don’t worry

about using it so much. The only problems we’ll tend to have

if we’re in work situations which demand the same kind of normal

Mercurical functionings and its not as brilliant now.

 

Fortunately, Mercury’s still

EXALTED in Virgo

So that’ll help a

lot!

 

Venus has now moved to the 24th degree of

Libra,

On

October 9th…So…..

Which normally would be extremely great!

However, be warned, today Saturn is still at the 22nd

degree of Leo right now,

So, Venus is still fairly close to the exact degree of

Saturn’s 3rd HOUSE

ASPECT….

 

If you’re experiencing any delays, disappointments and

frustrations now, regarding literally ANYTHING,

To do with the Venus heart!

Then, this is why!

 

Mars

 

Mars is now at the 9th degree of Libra, which is such a

more pleasant transit then when it was in Virgo. But, today,

10/9 you could feel the Moon being affected by Mars’

4th house aspect. (Upon the 9th degree of

Capricorn) Perhaps this is because Rahu’s also in

Capricorn.

So,

beware of feeling too pitta or fiery during today, October

9th as well.

 

Moon’s being at the

15th degree still makes it susceptible to Mars’ influence

as well as Rahu!

 

 

 

SATURN

This may be a good time to reflect on Saturn

again.

There are two ways to interpret Saturn’s many astrological

moments or aspects. #1 most of the time people think

Saturn represents a curse, a kind of negative event in the universe that

has the specific characteristics of:

Delays Frustrations Disappointments,

Dis-ease, Even disease! Loss, Grief,

Separation, And

On

and on!

 

But, the better more enlightened, insightful way of understanding

Saturn’s effects is in terms of PURITY!

Saturn is the living embodiment of Silence!

As

it moves about the Cosmos, if we’re in-tune with it, then we feel

the momentary Saturn moments of quietness, stillness, silent

grace and even the possibility of presence of God! But, if

we’re not presently in-tune with Saturn, then, something of a

purifying nature results! If we’ve been working too

hard, and then, one night finally get more rest, we spend the whole

night tossing and turning! How unfair is that, we think! The one night I try and catch up, I end up NOT sleeping!

However, what is really going on is the body is purifying!

It’s under a lot of backlog of stress and fatigue and is

spending this precious relaxation time, throwing off as much stress

as it can! This is of a real, physical phenomena, and because

the mind and body are connected, as the body unstresses the

stresses, the mind as intense dreams,

Even

nightmares are due to the positive Saturn release of stress!

Next time you find yourself under the typically negative grip of

Saturn;

Remember this and adjust, allowing this time to go on.

And, don’t feel so bad if the smoke is flying. We clean

house and for a few moments the dust is all up in the

air!

It almost seems like the house is more

dirty!

 

However, the dust is on the way out, and as the ‘dust’

flys, we should feel good! Like that, Saturn moments

seem like dust flying, around our life. Instead of

feeling any pinches with the heart, disappointment, imaginings bad

things; Allow, yourself to BE with Saturn in terms of your heart

today! and tomorrow!

 

Rahu

Finally, Rahu’s at the 22nd degree of Capricorn

still today Oct. 9th. Moon moved into Capricorn

yesterday, 10/8 so now today 10/9th Moon being only 7 degrees

away from Rahu’s direct degrees means it’s

influence

WILL BE THE MOST INTENSE TODAY! If intense desires,

obsessions, addictions OR ROUGHNESS pops up, recognize this is due to

Rahu’s negative aspect;

 

And let them go..

And Remedy is to be more silent along with your

desires!

 

And finally, Rahu's casting a direct

influence

upon the Sun today! Actually, Rahu, from it's

9th house aspecthas been aspecting the Sun the whole timeit

moved into Virgo.Count Rahu being in Capricorn as

#1,

then 9 houses away means,

Aquarius, 2, Pisces, 3, Aries, Taurus,

Gemini,

Cancer, 7, Leo 8 and Virgo 9th houses

away!

 

And, because Sun today is at the same exact

degree (22nd) as Rahu's also the 22nd

degree, though in Capricorn,

you may feel this Sun roughness as well!

 

Again, remedy is if feeling Rahu roughness

upon your Sun ego, I or self;

the remedy is to do a little bit more inner

work, meditating, especially, until the

bliss of the Sun remains undisturbed from

Rahu!

Article on rest and activity and

Saturn!

 

 

 

REST & ACTIVITY!

 

I

think the greatest thing I've learned from yoga and

meditation

Was

this idea of rest and activity!

 

Every moment of every day involves one or other of these two

cycles.

 

Right now I’m typing.

 

What

we miss when we’re doing, is that between each action, the

body

Still needs to rest.

 

Those that have to push too fast or too hard,

Pick

up a lot of strain or stress.

 

Carpal tunneling, is an example where repetitive motion is

so

Fast

and furious,

That

not enough time was had for resting;

And

this extreme, debilitating dis-ease,

Results!

 

Those who are moving but having accidents are not taking the

time

For

resting, between motions of activity.

 

Timings also have an element of rest and

activity.

 

How

often have we gone ahead with some project or work

related

Endeavor,

Only

to experience a lot of frustrations.

 

Either we can’t get hold of the right people, or

they’re not getting

Back

to us soon enough,

or

we're not experiencing what we call

NATURE'S SUPPORT!

 

WHY?

 

Because of a lack of balance between our rest and

activity!

 

SATURN!

 

If

we understand the role of rest and activity; then, when we find ourselves

deep within the ‘REST’ Saturn phase of any

event,

We’ll be able to truly just BE!

 

And,

being able to enjoy the rest phases of life, means that

Saturn

Is

deeply re-enlivened and appreciated.

 

SATURN, HIMSELF,

IS

A

REST PHASE!

 

So

often, when either a Saturn transit or Dasa time period happens, we have a

very difficult time with these.

 

Ever

wonder why?

 

Because we’re not in-tune enough with Saturn, and as a

result, Saturn

Causes in us some purification!

 

Saturn, himself, is the embodiment of moving

Silence.

 

He

moves ever so slowly.

 

He

feels like a boulder or a vortex of silence.

 

How

we’re experiencing Saturn is nature’s way of showing us how

in-tune we are with our silent, peaceful, inward, Saturn

nature!

 

If

we’ve been pushing or working too hard, then Saturn periods

find

That

backlog of fatigue and stress and then trys to push it

out!

 

We’ll feel a lot of inner commotion sometimes especially when

Moon and Saturn are colliding! We'll sometimes notice that we

have a very rough and intense amount of negative dreams at

night!

 

 

Ever

wonder why this is?

 

Most people think that this is because Saturn is

bad!

Or evil!

Or malefic!

 

Really, Saturn is extremely pure!

 

Saturn in fact, has a very bad rap!

 

If Jupiter is the right hand of God,

Reaching down and through Grace, picking us

up;

 

Then Saturn is the left hand of God,

Slapping us whenever we need it!

 

Think of it!

 

We

stay up too late, and violating the laws of nature;

Wake

up exhausted and fatigued!

 

Why

do we feel this way?

 

Who

is the agent of our fatigue and stress grief?

 

SATURN!

 

 

Saturn has the thankless task of delivering us all our

so-called

‘BAD’ karmas!

 

We

stay up too late!

 

We feel tired and not refreshed!

 

We

push too hard on a project at work,

 

And feel deeply exhausted and burnt out.

 

We

feel some sickness coming on,

 

And we ignore those signs from nature, and fall

sick!

 

Who’s the ONE that’s bringing us all these ‘out

of balance’ calamaties?

 

Of

course, SATURN!

 

No

wonder we hate him!

 

No

wonder we reduce him to a status of an evil doer!

 

No

wonder we misunderstand him!

 

But, there are two instances that begin to change our

mind.

 

#1

we can find, in those people’s charts where Saturn is supposedly

benefic;

that the results of Saturn are also benefic!

 

What

does this mean?

 

It

means that Saturn is in direct proportion to how much inner

balance,

And

inner peace we have. If we're born with it, or especially

'develop' it, then Saturn can be positive!

 

 

If

we develop our inner resources, and strengthen our

silent,

Quiet part of us;

Then automatically….

 

Saturn’s silence begins to grow!

 

And

as Saturn improves, then ALL the negative consequences

of

Saturn begin to recede!

 

 

As

it turns out Saturn is about the same size of Jupiter.

 

But, ‘HE’ has the thankless task of bringing us all

our worst nightmares!

 

Why? Why, does HE do it? In fact, HE

doesn't. We do! So, then we should ask who

does?

 

We create them! But, why? Why would we

do such a thing?

 

Because of our ignorance, because of a lack of

clarity,

because of a lack of education,

or

because we're just innocently not taking enough regular

rest!

 

Whatever the reason, Saturn will give us, in direct proportion to

our actions;

The

results of our rest and activity!

 

If

we engage in a healthy way in both these cycles; then Saturn is

appeased!

And

balance and peacefulness results!

 

If

we don’t then, grief and suffering will be ours!

 

The

cool thing too, is that Saturn, HIMSELF doesn’t even

really

Cause these things!

 

It’s US, our actions and choices that determine our

consequences.

 

Saturn is just the innocent harbinger of dis-ease, disease and

death!

 

I

call it the 3-D’s of Saturn!

 

He

just brings to us the results of our previous actions!

 

But,

at every moment, nature is happy if we choose a different

path!

 

If right now, we can resolve to be better, to give more regular

rest to our bodies, hearts and minds;

Then, IMMEEDIATELY, Saturn’s consequences will be

better!

 

Try it!

 

Next time you find yourself in a negative Saturn

moment;

Resolve that next time you’ll be

better!

 

That’s why I love these Saturn transiting

moments.

 

Happens about 4 times a month.

 

Moon & Saturn in the same Sign.

 

Moon 3 Houses away from Saturn.

 

Moon 7 Houses away from Saturn.

 

Moon 10 Houses away from Saturn.

 

All these aspects of Saturn upon the Moon, are the

classic;

MONTHLY

Saturn moments!

 

Watch these over this next month to determine how in-tune you

are

RIGHT NOW,

With your Saturn!

 

Then, if you don’t like the negative results that come

during these times;

Then, RESOLVE,

To be more in-tune with Saturn; for next

month!

 

This sounds like a great project!

 

Let’s do it!

 

ANYONE WHO WISHES TO STRENGTHEN THEIR

SATURN’S

OVER THE NEXT 4-8 WEEKS;

LET’S START TODAY!

 

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Mark
