Problem- OCD, (Venus-Combust and retrograde)]

[Guest guest]

|Hare Rama Krsna|

Dear Anurag and ?, Namaskar.

For Anuarag: The Moon cannot give neecha bhanga to himself so the Moon

in this case is not coming out of debility by being placed in a kendra.

 

Now, the problem is not the moon. OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder)

is a medical problem causing the dhi or intellect to function in a

certain way, but does not hurt the mind itself which is ruled by the

Moon.

Now, for such disorders always look at the Lagna and fifth house, as

well as their lords. Also check if by any change Jupiter is badly

placed.

Now Jupiter here is in the twelfth house and cannot cause a problem by

itself, instead it blesses the person with meditation and spiritual

insight. He is also fifth lord and this lone position cannot be

attributed to any problem. Only one malefic Rahu aspects him and that

could cause confusion at time, but is not attributed to an illness such

as OCD.

Now look at lagnesh. We can choose among Mars and Ketu. Ketu is exalted

in the second house, which is not bad.

Mars is instead joined Saturn (Unmadana yoga) and as Saturn is

atmakaraka this makes it all the more worse. There is also a tatva

dosha involving Mars and thus completing the problem. Mars is Bhratri

karaka so not only is the health and intellect suffering, but the

guiding principles are also being ruined. Mars' code of conduct will

thus become extreme and just like a general ruling the army, the person

will seek an extreme level of perfection in all he does.

You can further attribute this weakness to Mars' debilitation in

Navamsa.

The remedy lies in worshiping the Mahakala Jyotirlinga to mitigate the

suffering. I find that when those with mental disorders worships their

atmalinga (in this case mahakala) the need for medication quickly

reduces. Same applies to the Mrtiyunjaya mantra.

I would advise the mantra as: Om Namah Shivaaya Mahakalaaya Haum Joom

Sah| This should be begun on a Tuesday Morning and recited for 5 malas

(or as much as possible) for 40 days. The problem has been on the rise

since January, and will decrease/calm down after the 23rd of October

(shoola dasa).

Good luck and i hope this helps.

Yours sincerely,

Hello,

In your chart, as you have stated, the Moon is debilitated in

the Lagna. This predisposes the psychology and the emotional

personality to turbulence, swirling feelings difficult to express and

general intensity caused by the placement in the malefic sign Scorpio.

However, the Moon gets Neechabhanga due to the placement in the Lagna

as too the Graha Drishti of the Lord of the debilitation sign. Venus,

the lord of the exaltation sign also aspects by Rashi Drishti, making

for circumstantial factors that come about to elevate the Moon.

It is the very same aspect of Saturn that afflicts the

debilitated Moon in Lagna. As the planet is in Lagna, these

psychological sensibilities form a focal part of overall life and

impact everyday existence. This condition is intense enough to not be

ignored. Saturn's influence limits and oppresses the natural gaiety of

the Moon. The Moon is a social planet and is the barometer of how we

live life on the planet and what this life has to offer us at the

visible, societal level. In other words, it is the Karaka of

manifestation (Arudha) and participation. Afflicted by Saturn, the mind

is beset with a sense of weight and being 'locked in'. This burden of

responsibility and forced maturity cause a narrowing of the

psychological domain, leading to excessive focus and finally to

obsession: the 'O' of the OCD. Also, it is my opinion, based on my own

Moon (11th June, 1972; 10:17:56 AM; Cuttack, Orissa, India) that a

malefic Saturn will prepare the basic ground for the suppressing of the

Moon so that the emotions become constricted and tend to dysfunction. A

powerful nativity can use this narrowing for fuelling the drive to

'perfectionism' . Thus, blessings and curses are sometimes intertwined.

Nietzche warned that care should be taken that in casting out our

demons we might cast out the best that is in us. This is not an

observation on your chart but something that came to mind and something

that appears to ring true. In other words, one must be cautious that

one does not throw out the baby with the bath water. These words are

not lightly spoken and come from a degree of personal experience. In

one's humble opinion, sometimes the bad joke inherent in Mayik reality

comes through in such intricacies.

This post comes when the Moon is in dark Capricorn, aspected by

Saturn. One learnt to observe the Moon thus as SJC Attri where Pt. Rath

said the classes ought to take their theme from Chandra Gochar.

Anyway, the Karaka of both obsession and compulsion, (more

Compulsion) is Rahu. One Saturn does the basic work, Rahu brings in

active obsession and compulsion. Rahu is more the 'C' of the OCD. The

Disorder or 'D' comes from a confluence of factors. Rahu does not

aspect the Moon either with Graha Drishti, or Rashi Drishti.

The other Karaka for discrimination and application of the Dhi

is the Paka Lagna, the sign location of the Lagna Lord. This suffering

is very deep and Karmically rooted as the AK is Saturn, afflicting the

Moon and also afflicting the Paka Lagna with Mars therein. Mars is very

weak being in the Marana Karaka Sthana of the AK Saturn. Rahu aspects

the Lagna Lord and it is from here that the condition gets its main

thrust. Both Rahu and Saturn afflict the Paka Lagna.

The 4th Lord Rahu is in the 8th House and the other lord Saturn

is badly afflicted. The affliction to the Paka Lagna being in the 3rd

from the Arudha is also troublesome but will give a lot of drive to try

and continue with manifest, participatory life.

As a fundamental remedy, the Jyotirlinga Mantra corresponding

to Taurus Rashi could be used to exalt the Moon and the life experience

related to personal psychology. A pearl could also be used as the Moon

is the 9th Lord from Lagna, lord of Arudha Lagna, placed in Lagna and

the 5th from Arudha Lagna.

The Mantra is: ' Om Namah Shivaya Namo Somnaathaaya'

Best wishes,

Anurag Sharma.

Dear members,

 

I am sufferng from a mental disorder, OCD amongst other issues. It

signifies a damaging problem with perfectionism at best, and

obsesions, at worst This problem though, has not clouded my

rationalizing capacity as yet. Could this be related to my moon sign

being debilated. Also, what does the planet Venus being combust and

retrgrade sigfnify? Does it deal with issues regarding relationships?

 

My details are,

 

DOB- 20/01/1982

TOB- 2:41 am

POB- Trivandrum, Kerala

 

Regards..
