Guest guest Posted September 24, 1999 Report Share Posted September 24, 1999 Jai Jai Shri Jagannath Om Ganeshaya Namah Dear Vijay Kumar, Yes, these are some of the significations. However, a still detailed list of such significations can be read from Dr. B.V. Raman's HINDU PREDICTIVE ASTROLOGY and Varahamihira's BRIHAT JATAKA. This will be helpful for deriving the indications very useful for predicting charts, mundane astrology and also medical astrology. Regards, Sarat.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 1999 Report Share Posted September 24, 1999 Jai Jai Shri Jagannath Om Ganeshaya Namah Dear Gauranga, Yes there are very many significations for the 12 Rasis. They are natural significations which used in mundane astrology as well as in medical astrology. You may be aware the entire zodiac is divided into the various body parts of the Kalapurusha. Beginning with Aries representing the head, Taurus for neck, Gemini for arms, Cancer for chest, Leo for stomach, Virgo for under stomach, Libra for private parts, Scorpio for the back, Sagittarius for the thighs, Capricorn for the knees, Aquarius for the ankles and Pisces for the feet. Besides, Aries represents mountains, Taurus - Cowsheds, Gemini - Gambling dens and brothels, Cancer - Rivers, Leo - Temples, Virgo - fields, Libra - Commercial places, stock markets etc., Scorpio - large ponds and lakes, Sagittarius - Military grounds and ammunition dumps, Capricorn - marshy and wet lands, Aquarius - wells, lakes and ponds, Pisces - Oceans. There are many more such significations which can be read in detail and also noted from books like Brihat Jataka (Varahamihira), Hindu Predictive Astrology (Dr. B.V. Raman). You read these and I am sure you benefit a lot. You also said Cancer means God. This because Jupiter who represents God in the horoscope not only exalts there but also because it is a Jala Rasi, a brahminical sign and a life giving sign. The rivers are the purest form of water because running water is not impure, it washes away the dirt. That is why Cancer represents Ganga, the purest of all rivers. Similarly, every Rasi has a significance and these can be read from the above books which are very exhaustive. Regards, Sarat.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 1999 Report Share Posted September 24, 1999 JAYA JAGANNATH Dear VIJAY, You wrote Mercury for intelligence. I think it is Jupiter who rules DHI Shakti or intelligence. Hence it is a great benefic for the Human race.

Guest guest Posted September 25, 1999 Report Share Posted September 25, 1999 JAYA JAGANNATH Dear Narasimha, Parasara is very clear is assigning the primary role of " Dhi " to Jupiter and " Vach " to Mercury. Jupiter also rules the Sahasrara Chakra, the seat of intelligence, Knowing (or knowledge) and understanding that leads to wisdom. Mercury is the " Vach " or the power of expression, whether in the written media or spoken or in any other form. We can call this as a function of intelligence, but not intelligence in itself. For example, man is an intelligent creature and can speak languages whereas other animals cannot speak languages. Here the expression of intelligence is being stated and not intelligence in itself. This is a very subtle difference. I think this concept of Mercury ruling intelligence and Jupiter ruling happiness is more from western astrology. Sukha or happiness is attributed to Venus and not Jupiter. This is the view of Parasara Muni. It is a separate issue that Venus gets exalted in a sign of Jupiter and a strong Jupiter could enhance the significations of Venus (at least the Sukha aspect) or a Putrakaraka Jupiter can protect marriage (Venus).

Guest guest Posted September 25, 1999 Report Share Posted September 25, 1999 JAYA JAGANNATH Dear Gauranga, Depending on the stronger between the lagna and seventh houses, the Kundalini Shakti can be seen either from the Drusya or Adrusya half of the Horoscope. This division of the zodiac into two halves on the basis of Drusya and Adrusya and later into Solar and lunar Hora is very fundamental to Kundalini Shakti and the way the planets affect this Shakti. Another theory is that the Adrusya are stronger in male charts while the drusya is stronger in female charts, but this is a mere speculation of some astrologers and does not have the sanction of the Maharishi's. Kundalini Shakti recides at the base of the spine in the seventh house and rises in the reverse direction (Direction ruled by the Mokshkarak Ketu) through the sixth, fifth, fourth, third and second houses to the Lagna. There are the seven Chakra ruled by the seven houses starting from the Mooladhara till the Sahasrara. The fourth Chakra is in the heart Lotus in the fourth house. This is the sign CANCER in the natural zodiac and is the residing place of Maha Vishnu. Hence Cancer becomes the house of God or Vishnu. Similarly, the Mooladhara is the seventh house and is presided by Ganesha. Worship of Ganesha in the Mooladhara in a yellow square with the Prithvi beeja results in destruction of enemies. Conversely, the Nabhi (Navel) is in the sixth house and Brahma (Saturn's deity) sits here. Worship of Brahma can cause weaknesses and enemies. The sadhaka has to be very careful during this phase. The fifth house or the Chakra in the solar plexus is ruled by the Sun and the natural fifth house Leo. This is also the kavacha of the Chart and the giver of good health etc. The third is the Chakra in the throat and is presided by Saraswati. The second house is the Agya Chakra between the eyebrows and the Lagna is the Sahasrara Chakra. The planets from the Sun to saturn, but not in that order, control these seven chakra. Study samkhya shastra as given in the Gita with the knowledge of Jyotish to develop a very dep understanding of Manas, the five tatwa etc. Then the inner meaning of the Mahapurusha Yoga will reveal by itself. Those who are unaware, can visit our site and see the links page where you can go to the site having the entire Bhagavat Gita as given by srila Prabhupada.
