Guest guest Posted October 8, 2006 Report Share Posted October 8, 2006 Om Sri Gurubhyo Namah Pranaams Kishore-ji: I totally agree with you about not applying these readings verbatim and a comprehensive analysis of the chart is necessary. I also have great respect and admiration for Sri Raman. However I was wondering how he has specifically derived that meaning. For example, Mars in Gemini is supposed to give " loving family and children " . Thanks for the information. Kind regards.
