COVID-19, The brainchild of China?

Image
This blog aims to analyse the aspectual relationship between natal, progressed and transit planets of November 2019 to gauge the role of Republic of China in COVID-19 virus. Quite a few believe that it was developed in a Chinese lab and was then released as a biological weapon. This blog aims to de-code this statement. The chart for China is taken as the day it came into existence as a republic. The natal chart of this country has Aquarius rising. The 6 th lord Moon is almost conjunct the Ascendant point albeit from 12 th H highlighting the influence of armed forces over the nation rather they having a tremendous grip over national affairs but very discreetly. The Ascendant lord Uranus is quincunx to Moon its dispositor hinting at an uneasy life for the common people of the country. This lord of the ascendant is in 5 th H in Cancer so nation promises to advance on the basis of technological innovations, extreme changes and further exhibits an irrational behaviour. The 8 th H has a stel

An Astrological Diagnosis of Schizophrenia

Image
May 24 is observed as World Schizophrenia Day. Schizophrenia is a mental illness which affects the functioning of one’s brain. It is a psychiatric condition where certain chemicals in certain areas of brain are out of balance. There can be lack of co-ordination between thoughts, actions and emotions. This day provides an opportunity to understand the importance of mental health, spread awareness about this illness in general. Schizophrenia starts in early adulthood or late adolescence, typically between the ages of 15-28. Men have an earlier onset than women. This blog aims to de-code astrological combinations for mental illness –particularly psychological health. To elucidate this I will be analysing 3 charts of different age groups through Sayana, Nirayana methodologies with a few additional Nadi pointers too. Chart X - is of a lady in her 60s whose post-partum depression went unnoticed and it triggered the outburst when she was 23 years old Chart Y - a lady who is in her early 40s a

Concise Analysis of Aries Ingress 2021

Image
  In any Ingress chart, Position of Sun is very important. Here it becomes all the more important because it is the Ascendant lord too. A fixed sign rising ensures that the Aries Ingress chart remains valid for this entire year. 1. Sun in 8th H –untoward sudden incidents/ calamities/ natural disaster and major transformations as a country. 2. Sun is disposed by Mars- the lord of 9th and co-lord of 4th. Mars is in 10th H in Nodal axis and in enemy’s Sign Gemini(uncomfortable). One of the significations of Mars is Armed forces so this placement hints that they would show exemplary courage for their motherland. The opposition parties may try to dominate over the Government and hog limelight. Further religious matters/ some court verdicts may gain wide-spread attention and this may invoke violent protests. 3. Mercury- the lord of 2, 11 is in the Sign of debilitation in 7th H. It is with Neptune and Venus so the economy of the nation though weak in the beginning, it should gradually improve

This is a very simplistic Tropical analysis of the Natal Chart of India (Chart of Independent India), the Progressed chart and Transits of the day (26 th January) and it aims at analysing the unfortunate events that took place in the National capital on our 72 nd Republic day. Every student of Astrology knows that this is a very testing time for our country & hence this write up intends to scrutinize the planetary combinations and their aspectual relations that played a role in today's mayhem in Delhi. Independent India’s chart has Gemini (0 ° 50’) rising as the Ascendant. 1.    Progressed Mercury (Scorpio 21) forms a Square aspect with Natal Sun (Leo 21). Sun signifies Persons of Authority, Rulers and Mercury signifies Meetings, Rallies respectively. Mercury is the Ascendant lord whereas Sun assumes lordship of the 4 th House. Thus this imparts lots of stress, obstacles in Governance and as a result the state of home affairs suffers. Mercury being Ascendant lord i

Swami Vivekandanda- A True Luminary

Image
On 12th January, we will be celebrating the 158th birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda. This essay is just my way of paying an obeisance to this great patriot saint of Modern India. It aims at decoding his mystic yet charming persona and his “leap into fame” at the Parliament of Religions held at Chicago in 1893 at which he represented Hinduism. This is a very simplistic tropical scrutiny based on aspectual analysis of the natal and the progressed chart. The data has been procured from Astro Data Bank which gives it AA rating. As per Wikipedia page , Swami Vivekananda  (12 January 1863 – 4 July 1902), born  Narendranath Datta , was an Indian Hindu monk. He was a chief disciple of the 19th-century Indian mystic Ramkrishna. He was a key figure in the introduction of the Indian philosophies of Vedanta and Yoga to the Western world, and is credited with raising  interfaith  awareness, bringing Hinduism to the status of a major world religion during the late 19th century. He was a major f
