Who is often an Astrologer?

Given here are some principles and my thoughts on what yogas during a horoscope can make one proficient in Astrology.

Before going into various yogas, the primary step is to know the qualities of the grapes, bhavas, and Rasis that contribute to yoga. Without having a thorough understanding of the basics one can’t master the principles and can find it difficult to use them in real-world cases. it's nearly impossible to seek out Jyotish combinations verbatim in real-world cases, hence one got to understand the idea of the combinations, thereto they will be appropriately adapted. in real-world analysis.

The Grahas

Budha: Budha is that the significator of the knowledge of Astrology, Astronomy, and arithmetic. It’s also the significator for Mimansa, which is a reconciliation of multiple branches of data. Disciplines like Jyotish require one to know and reconcile the knowledge from multiple branches of data.

Surya: Surya is that the giver of the Jyotisha knowledge. He gave the knowledge of Surya Siddhanta to Maya Danav. Surya Siddhanta is one among the more accurate treatise of computation of Graha positions among many other Siddhantas. Surya is that the governor of the system and therefore the zodiac and thus verily called the King. Jyotisha is understood to be the eyes of the Vedas (Veda Chakshu) because it helps in rummaging through the deeper secrets. Surya being the governor of the attention sight, is strongly related to the knowledge of Jyotisha Shastra. it's so important that the East Indian Chart Chart is named the Surya Chakra. the opposite two configurations are Guru Chakra (South Indian Chart) and Shukra Chakra (North Indian Diamond Chart). Agni Tattva is a crucial element of this Discipline, hence the Agni grahas (Surya, Mangal, Ketu), Agni Rasis (Mesha, Simha and Dhanu) also as Agni Trikona (1st, 5th, and 9th) attain high significance.

Guru: Guru is that the giver of all types of data including Jyotish. Which Budha helps in memorizing and retention of data , Guru helps in understanding (digesting) it, in order that one is in a position to use them in real-world situations. Guru-Mangal, Guru-Surya and Guru-Budha yogas are excellent yogas for Jyotish shastra.

Rahu: Rahu is that the karaka for depth and darkness. Jyotish may be a sort of knowledge that isn't accessible to everyone (Guhya vidya). It requires one to delve deep into the matters concerning creation like all the occult subjects. Hence, it's a key significator of all occult knowledge, including Jyotish.

Shukra: Shukra is that the Guru of the Asuras and highly knowledgeable like Guru. Shukra gives knowledge that's practical and may to attaining material success. It gives the knowledge of strategy and the way to defeat enemies in war. Perhaps that's why Shukra isn't defeated during a Graha yuddha. Like Guru, Shukra gives many sorts of knowledge, including Jyotisha. The difference between Guru and Shukra being, while Guru helps in achieving spiritual success, Shukra helps in achieving material success.

Mangal: Mangal may be a fiery Tattva Graha like Surya, which is important for vision. Jyotisha Shastra is understood because of the eye of the Vedas (Veda Chakshu). Jyotish requires strong and pure Agni Tattva within the horoscope for the person to be ready to see the longer term and become Trikalagna (seer of past, present and future). Mangal is that the graha for logical analysis and problem-solving. Pure Mangal makes one an honest logician and a critical thinker. they're ready to analyze very complex situation and problems, break them down into smaller systems and solve them efficiently. Yogas like Ruchaka, Guru-Mangala, etc. are excellent for the knowledge of Jyotisha Shastra.

Shani: Shani verily is that the Kala itself, time personified. he's also referred to as Surya Putra Mahakala and represent the seat of your time in Ujjain, within the sort of Mahakala Shiva. Shani represents Brahma, the creator of the universe, and thus the knowledge of creation. Thus a well-placed and pure Shani gives deep knowledge of philosophy and therefore the knowledge of the cycle of creation and annihilation, the Brahma Vidya. Yogas like Shani-Guru (Brahma Yoga), Shani-Shukra-Ketu (Tapasvi yoga) is good for understanding philosophies, including Jyotish shastra.

Ketu: Ketu is that the graha for intuition and pattern recognition. It indicate ability to unravel highly abstract problems, which can’t be solved by logical deduction indicated by Mangal. Ketu’s problem-solving includes processing of giant amount of data and recognition of heuristics and patters. Ketu doesn't have a head, hence its thinking isn't structured and sequential. However, that creates it very effective in watching holistic picture and be ready to connect the dots which aren't apparent to the eyes otherwise.

Chandra: Chandra being a luminary is additionally effective in giving some knowledge of the longer term , however, unlike Surya, its light is calm and funky, hence rather than giving the power to seem through the darkness, it makes one imaginative and artistic. Chandra isn't known much for its ability to offer Jyotish ability, but a pure Chandra can complement the skills of other grahas in giving a reflective and imaginative mind, who can come up with an honest story around anything. Story telling an art which may make an astrologer greater than the remainder. The Grahas coming under Chandra’s influence through yuti, drsti or by being placed in Chandra’s Rasi or Chandra’s placement therein graha’s rasi, imbibe the virtue of reflection, imagination and creativity.

Let's check out the significations of Rahu and Ketu and why they're the key grahas for the knowledge of Jyotish. consistent with Maharishi Parashara, when Rahu or Ketu occupy the Karakamsa or the 5th from it, the native becomes an astrologer, among other things. The principle is often extended to the 2nd house and therefore the 9th house. additionally, to the Karakamsa, the mixture also can be seen from the Navamsa Lagna, Rasi Lagna, Chandra Lagna, and therefore the Karaka Lagna. Although the intensity of the results will vary.

Rahu: Mysticism, magic, strange events, enigmas and excitement, serpents and venomous reptiles, diseases, scars, courage, adventure, capital execution, foreign faith, stones, mud, travelers, inventors, lecturers, psychologist, thieves, widowhood, litigation, duplicity, aviators, sepulchers, ant-hills, crack & crevices, archers, spies, portentous evils, radio, aerial navigation, occult and metaphysical studies, astrology, south-western direction, inflammable gases, epidemics, violence, corruption, political plots, and exiles.

Ketu: Religion, astrology, ascetic and renunciation, spirituality and moksha, charms, amulets, spirit, headless behavior, bankruptcy, philosophers, selfishness, occult and mystical disciplines, conflicts, deception, and assassinations, vicious tendencies, espionage, secret intrigues, and terrorism.

Rasi Karakatva

There are some Rasis which are involved in conferring the knowledge of astrology and occult. When a knowledge granting Graha (knowledge karaka) occupies in these signs, or a knowledge granting yoga formation happen in these signs, the intensity of the results get further strengthened. Hence, it's important to seem at the Rasis that support the knowledge of astrology and mysticism. These Rasis and their significations are-

Vrshchika: Well, lake or other standing water bodies, mystic, philosopher, astrologer, and occultist, secretive, detective and clever criminals, nurse, chemist, doctor, explorer, navigator, barber, dentist, mechanic, armed and police forces, coffin-maker, embalmer, undertaker, life-insurance agent, businessman, etc.

Kumbha: cemetery, advisers, legal or social advisors, innovation, electricity, nuclear power, computers automobile and airplane mechanic and tv technology, adept in astrology, telepathy, and hypnosis, neurologist, X-ray worker, dealer in medical appliances etc.

The Bhavas

 

2nd Bhava: 2nd home is extolled in many Jyotish classics together of the key house of data. 2nd is that the house of speech among other things. 2nd home is important within the matter of data perhaps because, it shows the power to (1) express the knowledge in real-world , through speech and eloquence, (2) orally transmit the knowledge to others. There are umpteen sutras given in Jataka Tattva regarding various sorts of knowledge arising out of varied yogas forming within the 2nd house or with the 2nd lord. Maharishi Parashara also says that the yogas for knowledge that are applied to the trines to Karakamsa also can be applied to the 2nd house. These principles of Karakamsa are often extended to the Navamsa Lagna, the Rasi Lagna, and therefore the Karaka Lagna (a sign of Atmakaraka within the Rasi chart). 2nd house the house of goddess Sarasvati and it's said that Sarasvati resides on the tongue. She is verily called Vagdevi, one who guides one’s speech.

4th Bhava: 4th home is the house of schooling or formal learning. it's the house of the mother, who teaches us all the talents that are needed for survival during this world. When yoga is related to the 4th house, the native learns it from a faculty or sometimes reception, but during a structured and organized manner.

5th Bhava: 5th home is the house of psychology and indicates which prevails within the mind. Being 2nd from the 4th house, it indicates what proportion of learning is accumulated, internalized, and may be used for understanding the planet and solving real-world problems. just like the 2nd house, the 5th home is the house of data. Knowledge dawns when the knowledge gathered (in the 4th house) is digested. Verily, the 5th home is related to digestion. The yogas forming with the 5th house and therefore the lord have a direct and significant impact on our mind and thinking.

8th Bhava: Knowledge are often classified into two major kinds (1) visible and (2) hidden. The visible knowledge is practical, accessible to all or any, and is useful in day-to-day sustenance. Where the visible knowledge stops, the hidden knowledge starts, that deals with things which are subtle, difficult to perceive and are accessible to only few. The 8th house of the natural zodiac is Scorpio, which represents a well, bottom of which is dark, filled with mysteries and difficult to access. All the mysteries of creation lies within the 8th house and therefore the knowledge is out there only to those that endeavour very hard to urge it. It requires years of effort and practice to know the subtle realities.

9th Bhava: 9th home is the house of upper learning that one receives from a true master (Guru). it's the house of Guru and is that the stepping stone for the person to achieve the position of an educator . Many get access to knowledge, but just some attain mastery and become capable of teaching the knowledge to others. 5th and 9th are closely related because (1) 9th and 5th are Bhavat Bhavam for every other, (2) while 9th is that the place of a teacher, 5th is for the student. Without a student, what's the utilization of being an educator. Hence, both these houses got to be judged together to ascertain whether the native becomes an educator of the topic. Also, the knowledge granting yoga should have some reference to the 9th house, for the person to be ready to teach that knowledge, else, the knowledge stays within.

10th Bhava: 10th home is the house of action, livelihood, social station, and leadership skills. When a knowledge yoga formation happens within the 10th house, this suggests that the native may become a practitioner of that knowledge and earn livelihood using that. There are many capable and outstanding astrologers, but they'll remain researchers during this field, and not use the knowledge to earn their livelihood. There are however many that use their half-baked knowledge and earn unlimited wealth. Whether or not someone will earn from a knowledge also must be seen with reference to the 11th house, as all income and gains comes from that house. When the knowledge yoga is involved the 10th house, and therefore the 10th house, its lord and therefore the Lagna, Lagna lord is strong, the native can attain worldwide fame concerning that knowledge. The native could also be in a commanding position to command many of us, by becoming a head of an establishment. Why? 10th home is a Throne where the king sits and commands many of us. 10th home is the house of leadership from where the leaders lead the common men.

11th Bhava: 11th home is not only the house of gains but also a key house of learning of occult knowledge. Why? Because it's the 4th house of learning from the 8th house.

12th Bhava: 12th is that generally referred to as house expenditure and loss. However, it's also the house of freedom, it makes one free from all the fabric bondages and takes the mind beyond. Hence, this will even be called the house of intuition. within the natural zodiac, this home is ruled by Devaguru Brhaspati and is that the sign of Mulatrikona of Ketu. Ketu is that the significator of intuition, being a graha without ahead. Intuition is that the connection one establishes with the unknown and gets insights, knowledge, and knowledge in flashes. One can call it 6th sense, gut feeling, a robust feeling which one feels is true, but can’t explain. this is often extremely important within the matters of Jyotish as we'd like to be connected to the divine, to urge his message. we'd like to be a channel for the divine message.
