Alchemy Rediscovered and Restored (1941) - By Archibald Cockren

The object of this book is to place before the reader in language as simple as possible the story of alchemy. Because the literature on this science has ever been an enigma to both the scientific and the lay mind, it is the earnest desire of the author to present it stripped of its symbolism, and to give some indication of its processes, its achievements, and its possibilities. This is an excellent primer for anyone interested in alchemy. (342kb.pdf)

The Chaldean Oracles (1908)

By G.R.S. Mead (108kb.pdf)

Under this general title is now being published a series of small volumes, drawn from, or based upon, the mystic, theosophic and gnostic writings of the ancients, so as to make more easily audible for the ever-widening circle of those who love such things, some echoes of the mystic experiences and initiatory lore of their spiritual ancestry. There are many who love the life of the spirit, and who long for the light of gnostic illumination, but who are not sufficiently equipped to study the writings of the ancients at first hand, or to follow unaided the labours of scholars. These little volumes are therefore intended to serve as introduction to the study of the more difficult literature of the subject; and it is hoped that at the same time they may become for some, who have, as yet, not even heard of the Gnosis, stepping-stones to higher things.

It is an accepted fact that Rishi Bhrigu was the first compiler of predictive Astrology. His famous compilation, Bhrigu Samhita, which contains the predictions for thousands of combinations, is popular even today. There is a very interesting story behind Rishi Bhrigu’s involvement with astrology.
The Brahmin community, in spite of their scriptural knowledge, intellect and honesty, were economically deprived, as their duty was to give knowledge and perform the rituals without seeking anything in return. They had to live entirely on the alms given by others. They requested Rishi Bhrigu to find an amicable solution to end their poverty.
Maharishi Bhrigu worshipped Goddess Lakshmi. After a long Tapasya, She ppeared before him and granted his wish. She advised him to create an astrological treatise with the help of which the Brahmin community can predict the past, present and future of people, and this will ward off their poverty.
Bhrigu, with help of Lord Ganesha, compiled the famous Bhrigu Samhita. It consists of several lackhs of horoscopes with different planetary combinations, their results and the remedial measures for prosperity and to ward off the evils. The Brahmin community gratefully learned to interpret it and prospered.
The ‘Bhrigu Samhita’ is reported to be existing even today, though there are a lot of fakes and frauds.
Rishi Bhrigu also wrote the Bhrigu Sutras, which contain several important predictive clues.

Sherman Hollar, "Astronomy: Understanding the Universe"
| 2011-08-15 | ISBN: 1615305203 | 96 pages | PDF | 50,8 MB
Fathoming the boundlessness of space and the universe, we are immediately filled with curiosity about our own origins and wonder about the objects, life forms, and matter that populate the cosmos. Through the observations and work of astronomers over time, we have slowly been able to reduce the number of unknowns and develop explanations or theories for some of the celestial objects and phenomena we see. This space-traveling survey recounts some of the major discovery milestones in the field of astronomy and examines the tools and techniques currently used by astronomers to study the universe.

Nakshatras

2011-12-01T09:44:00.000-08:00

Ashwini: Twins
Often has best friend that looks just (or is) like them
Ashwini Kumars -- healers -- road around in golden chariots and would rescue and heal the Gods and Goddesses through their herbal potions. They grew the healing herbs, horses heads, healing, alternative healing, gardening and agriculture.
(In 4th house, mother might like gardening). Ketu is ruler.

Bharani: Womb Yama: God of Death
Procreativity, creativity, slowly developing within -- mulling over -- (e.g. a thought) finally giving birth, gynecological issues, the womb itself, Yama - the restrainer -- brings up other issues: restraint, binder, judge and judging, going to jail, trouble with law, upholders of the law, feeling restrained or bound, death issues, e.g. working in hospice.
also the idea of Utopianism: a new ideal world, a brave new society.

Krittika: Razor edge Agni
cutting things, sharp things, technical minds, sharp minds with edges to them,
fiery, leadership oriented, Leo-like quality: those with bold, big plans, do tend to be prone to hot, passionate, seductive side, attracted to other people's wives.
(Agni has almost too many associations)

Rohini: The ox cart Brahma
Creativity, magnifies everything, gives rise to it. Improving. If you have money planets in Rohini it thrives, prospers, is blessed. Abundance. Favorite wife of the Moon. He fell in love with her because she excelled in all of music and the arts, especially dancing, and the sexual arts (skilled in the conjugal arts). They often love to dance. Other women are jealous of them (have a charge on them). They have a strong dose of feminine creative energy. To nip jealousy in bud, Rohini person should praise the other person, make them feel special, immediately. (Moon in Rohini in 11th, elder sister loves to dance.) Dramatic. The ox cart: pickup trucks and utility vehicles?

Mrigashirsha: Deer's head Soma: The Moon
Brahma was attracted to his daughter, she took form of deer to escape, Brahma took form of stag to pursue her, Shiva or Indra cut off head of Brahma to protect her, and his head became the constellation. Passion, unwise passions, constantly searching, preyer or prey, attracted to friend's wife, promiscuity, incest, suffering the consequences of unwise sexual attachments, sensitivity, good researchers, curious, good at finding things. (Afflicted Moon in Mrigashirsha in 9th, incest with father)
Soma also seduced the wives of sages. Divine nectar: alcohol and drugs???

Ardra: Teardrop Rudra
Emotional, tears, crying, tears as legitimate release, going through anguish, rain and storms, (he encounters storms when he travels, planet in 12th in Ardra), stormy weather as a metaphor, e.g. my Ardra in the 11th -- storms with friends. Lightning bolts.
with my Sun in Ardra, I work with those who emotionally suffer, because Sun is the career planet, lots of people with Sun in Ardra e.g. psychologists deal with people in anguish.

Punarvasu: Aditi: the Mother of all of the gods Quiver of Arrows
Arrow goes out from bow, mostly stays in quiver. Mostly liking to stay at home, and sometimes traveling. Or mostly staying at an even keel with activity, and then sometimes getting really dynamically involved with activity. In 2nd, generally saves, occasionally likes to spend. Storing up potential energy, with occasional expenditure. Aditi means primordial vastness. Unbounded consciousness (space) that had to exist first to be the mother of the rest of the Gods. Symbol of freedom, they want space. Learn to give each other space -- they need to stretch out and be who they are, and need to give that to others. Because the planet is Jupiter - links to knowledge, philosophical perspective. They're interested in philosophy, yoga, meditation.

Pushya: Brihaspati: mentor/teacher of the rest of the Gods
symbol: udder of the cow nourishment
Pushya is the most auspicious, wealthy constellation.
a good time to start things when Moon in Pushya (like Jupiter rising) ensures success (except you don't get married with Moon in Pushya) Wealth, prosperity, nurturing (like Rohini, Dhanishta, Chitra -- gemstones -- )
good at teaching, wisdom, philosophical, religious, devotion to the teacher, like Jupiter

Ashlesha: Nagas deified serpents Intertwining serpents symbol of healers
found prominently in charts of psychologists, astrologers. Snakes live beneath the ground, so it symbolizes the unconscious, dark side, you do see axe murderers here, like the sign Scorpio, mesmerism/hypnotic, sneaky not quite straightforward quality, manipulative, kundalini energy, foundational energy, poison.

Magha: Pitris The deified ancestors Throne Room
Connected to the past, revere the past and ancient traditions, they tend to like yoga, or traditional Chinese medicine, astrology. Protecting the tradition. Having a mentor, older wiser person that they highly respect (e.g. grandparent) if in the right houses in the chart. Searching out the family lineage. Ruler of 10th in Magha owned ice hockey rink (throne room, special room). They're environment is very important to them. Like to have an office, command center. Powerful one, mighty one, power-oriented, self-ruling, they don't like working for other people, like to do their own thing.
Note: all of the Ketu constellations (Ashwini, Magha, Mula) have links to the past and to healing. Mula: root, herbal healers. Magha: traditions of healing.

Purva Phalguni: Bed of marriage (conjugal bed) Bhagha
procreativity, sexuality, creative, (in Madonna, Hugh Hefner, Mick Jagger charts) cannot own their identity ???, great marriage constellation (when people go into period with Moon in Purva Phalguni become interested in relationships), Shiva started his wedding march in this constellation. People getting married. Bhagha means the inherited share. (If ruler of 8th or planet in 8th is in this constellation, person will definitely get an inheritance.) Communal wealth. In ancient times, a person's transition from childhood to adulthood was marked by their being given a part of the share of the communal wealth. Transition into adulthood, maturity. Maturation process (e.g. in the 10th, they may come into a sense of owning what they do, in their work.) Symbol of wealth, great Nakshatra for wealth.

Uttara Phalguni: Healing bed Aruman: god of chivalry
Healing energy, serving, helping, healing. Aruman is god of patronage (goes along with Mitra). Person will find a teacher, will help someone else, be a mentor, or patron. Meeting important people. (If afflicted, you could meet someone who was supposed to help you and it falls through or problems come up.)

Hasta: The hands Surya: the Sun
If a person shows musical abilities here, it's likely to be instrumental (hands). Crafts people and artists. Also indicators of routine work. Sense of humor, clever speech, sometimes they ridicule people, cleverness. Verbal abilities, quick wit.

Chitra: The beautiful one Viswakarma: the celestial architect and craftsman
He made the bows and weapons for the warriors in Mythology.
Creative, crafts, sculptor or craftsperson more likely than the fine arts because Chitra is likely to create something three dimensional. Design. Weapons making. Related to sexuality, passionate, charismatic. Pearl signifies beauty. Love of beauty. Feels beautiful or handsome, wants a beautiful mate.

Swati: Vayu Sprout swaying in the wind
New beginnings, tenuousness, not quite knowing if it's going to take off and fructify. Success after struggling and tenuous beginnings. A sprout becomes a powerful tree later on. Vayu god of wind: air, wind, (e.g. ruler of 12th in Swati, person might travel by air or to windy places), (as ruler of 1st may give Vata complaints, gas). Nothing can stand up to Vayu. Time is on the wind's side. When the wind goes, even the mountains will be worn down. Saraswati is alternative deity, god of arts, esp. Music. creative. The Vina stringed instrument. Saraswati has connotations of wisdom, knowledge.

Vishakha: Indra-Agni

Both Vishakha and Anuradha have same symbol: Triumphal Gateway covered with leaves. Enormous power, goes for success through power. E.g. client who was a race car driver with ruler of 10th in Vishakha, wanted bigger engines, pushing others out of the way. Really try to get ahead by their own power. Seek to have more power. Overpowering, excessive power is its downfall. (E.g. if the voice is here, the person will speak to you too loudly.) Issues with truth, (sagittarius-like), they want to speak the truth, can be blunt.

Anuradha: Mitra God of friendship.
Success through friendship. Mitra rules over all of the rules and regulations of human relationships. Commitments. People value friendships, when they get ahead, they get ahead by a win-win situation, not by overpowering somebody. Lots of therapists and family counselors have this constellation, want to empower their clients. Establishment of relationships is the key to their successes in life. They really have issues with commitment --> if you say you're going to do something, you better follow through with it. Wants self and others to follow thru. Committed to and really value friends. Found in some lawyers charts, the rules of human interaction, make sure people honor their commitments. People who benefit thru relationship. Anyone who deals with clients.

Jyeshtha: Indra King of the Gods Talisman is the symbol
Rulership, leadership, e.g. CEOs of companies, people who are good at being in charge. Indra once seduced the wife of a great sage who was away, when he came back, he cursed Indra to have 1000 vaginas all over his body, and was miserable for years and had to do many austerities, and finally the vaginas turned into 1000 eyes, and he's now called "the 1000 eyed one". Indra is known to burst into people's homes to get his Soma (that the person is keeping for him). Some of his clients have seduced the wives of others, or smoked opium. The seduction of the Soma is using drugs. Backlash from illicit affairs. If they get into sexual promiscuity (someone else's lovers) they get ill will directed towards them (or cursed). Arrogance. Talisman is the symbol of occult means, the ability to protect, indication of being protected. Possibly a secret interest or activity in the occult, e.g. chanting and meditating, seeking astrologers.

Mula: Nirriti: The Goddess of calamity (like Kali)
A traditional view is that it's bad to be a woman who's born with her Moon in Mula. Different padas tell which relative is going to die because someone married a woman with Moon in Mula. (He hasn't seen this to be true.) Many kinds of propititiations for a woman with this lunar Nakshatra. Makes a woman a Kali type, someone who is in touch with her "inner bitch". Psychologically, it allows a person to integrate both dark and light parts of themselves, without pushing out the dark and only going for sweetness and light. Associated with calamities, sudden challenging difficult experiences. He's heard it said that this is bad for finances, e.g. financial losses. Person will have issues with being paid what they're worth. Earning enough money. Person goes deeply into things, (the root), so whenever they do things, they do them with a tremendous amount of depth and get to the root of everything, a profound job, researchers, plumb to the depth of ideas. He noticed this constellation in the charts of very wealthy people, so it doesn't prohibit a person from wealth. Root is a symbol of going to the center of things. Mars/Ketu combination does energy healing, when he saw it in Mula, he said "You do Chi Gung" and was right, because Chi Gung is about rooting. Associated with the root chakra and Kundalini energy. Healing and ancient traditions (Ketu) because of the root concept.

Uttara Ashada : Vishuadevas Many virtues. Tusk
Multi-virtuousness, allows successes, connection to Ganesh, particularly good for starting new things (if someone's bhukti planet is in this constellation, they'll start something new -- sort of like Aries). If the planet in this constellation falls in the Dasamsha chart in the first house or Aries, they'll start something in their career. New beginning.

Shravana: Ear and three offset footprints Vishnu (and Saraswati)
Listening, oral traditions, therapists, musicians, good at convincing other people, teachers. Love to use their feet, they walk, hike, bike, run. One his clients is a teacher who has strong verbal abilities, is mesmerizing and convincing, extremely good listener, and also has biked all over the U.S., hiked up and down the Cascade range, etc. If you were in a period where the ruler of the 9th in the 12th, or the ruler of the 9th in the 3rd, was placed here, they'll travel and do a bit of walking. Ruler of 6th in Shravana if afflicted or with malefics (esp. if in the 8th house), possible problems with the ears or the feet.

Dhanishtha: Drum: musical drum.
People who have this enjoy rhythmic music. The wealthy. Can have misogyny (hate women). Musicians. Precious things, money, gems, beautiful objects.

Associated in general with alternative. Connection with outer space, space program, other aspects of technology. Love of astrology and metaphysics.

Purva Bhadrapada: Aja ekaba (relatively unknown deity) form of Agni
You see this in many spiritually-oriented people's charts (even though the constellation has a bad reputation), but also in many axe murders this came up (as did Ashlesha). Passions run amok. People who had run off with a lover, crimes of passion.
Aja: The unmanifest, the unborn one, one awareness, (one footed goat), one being.
Agni: Symbol of deified fire. Passion can be directed to spiritual growth, meditation.
Funeral cot: symbol of transcendent of materialism. A deeply spiritual symbol. Yogis favor meditating in graveyards, because it reminds him of the transience of life, bring his mind to the spiritual level, and to forget the world. (It's considered a good omen to see a dead body.) Connection with death in this and the next two nakshatras. Emergency rooms, sitting with dying parent.

Uttara Bhadrapada: Funeral cot Ahirbudhnya a Sea serpent
Enjoy being around water, kundalini symbol, all of the associations with serpents.
Both Bhadrapada constellations together are called the scorching pair because they're both associated with combustion or heat, and therefore passion and desire. But Uttara Bhadrapada has the capacity for channeling this desire in a constructive direction. More inclined to have a passion for life, or for their work, than to seduce their best friend's mate.

Revati: ruled by Pushan who ushered souls into the realm of Yama (death)
often find hospice workers. Pushan is the ruler of the road, so people love to travel with this Nakshatra. He's also the ruler of animals, he was the animal keeper of the gods, so people who love animals. Pushan is Caretaker of animals. He found lost animals. Herdsman of the Gods. Healers of animals.
Drum symbol: increments in time. Project that's started in this period progresses sequentially.

JYOTISHA

Indian astrology is popularly referred to as Vedic astrology. This is not because it is there in the Vedas. There is no mention of astrology in the Vedas. However, it is one of the Vedangas, i.e., limb or branch of Vedas, and dates back to the Vedic period. Several of the Poojas and remedial measures prescribed in the Indian astrology are as per the Vedic system. Hence, it is called Vedic astrology.

The Vedangas are six in number. They are: Siksha or phonetics, Kalpa or ritual, Vyakarana or grammar, Nirukta or etymology, Chhandas or metrics and Jyotishya or astronomy and astrology. These are mentioned in the Upanishads.

It is impossible ascertain the exact time of origin of our astrology. Even the most famous historians differ wildly, from 1200 BC to 2500 BC while trying to fix our Vedic period. A lot of them, especially the westerners, still study India based on the Mahenjadaro and Harappan discoveries, which were discovered in the 1920’s!! Several archeological discoveries of recent times date our culture to 7500 BC, making it the ancient most civilization in the world. Our astrology has details of the horoscopes of Lord Krishna, Lord Rama and many other ancient Indian kings and queens, recorded thousands of years ago. The Bhishma Parva and Udyoga Parva chapters of Mahabharata mention many astrological descriptions and omens just before the Mahabharata war. It also describes a period of draught with several planetary combinations. There is also a very clear reference about two eclipses, a solar eclipse and a lunar eclipse occurring, creating a rare 13 day lunar fortnight. Available scientific research data shows that the Mahabharata war must have occurred either in 3129 BC or 2559 BC. According to the Hindu Panchangas, maintained from ages, Kaliyuga era is counted from February 17/18 midnight 3102 BC. Hindu epics like Mahabharata and Ramayana have been written off as myths by the western historians. However the recent discovery of the submerged ancient city Dwaraka, (the site of the legendary city of Lord Krishna, which got submerged in the sea after the death of Lord Krishna), led by Dr. S.R. Rao of the Marine Archaeology Unit of the National Institute of Oceanography of India lends a lot of credence to our mythology. Various texts attribute the origin of Indian astrology to various gods and Rishis. It is futile to ascertain who was the originator. The most popularly followed astrological classics today are the ones written by Rishis like Parashara, Varahamihira, Garga, Jaimini and their followers. People in those days had no satellites or telescopes and yet the planetary positions and their motions recorded by them are as accurate as the planetary positions and degrees recorded today using the space satellites. Our ancient astrologers used their divine intuition to record these planetary movements and their effects on us.

Astrology has a twofold purpose. On one hand it is used as a tool to select the right month the right date and the right time to start various auspicious rites and rituals so that the results are better. On the other hand it is used as a guide to study the destiny of an individual.
Indian astrology is based on the theory of fate. The good and the bad actions of the past life determine your fate or Karma of your present life, and the actions of your present life determine your future Karma. According to Indian astrology a person is born at that place, on that day and on that moment when his individual fate is in perfect mathematical harmony with the progress of the stars in heaven. However it does not preach total dependence on fate. Astrology lets you know what you were born with, what your possibilities are, the limitations, your strong points and your drawbacks. What type of life partners and professions suit you and to expect is also indicated. It also prescribes various remedial measures to ward off the bad effects and to enhance the good results. Astrology is your roadmap of destiny. However your fate is in your hands. The scriptures guide us by telling us what is good and what is bad; what to do and what not to do; how to do and how not to do. You are given a piece of land and the seeds to sow. How much effort to put in to it, what amount of manure and water to add and when how to reap the produce is your job. After that it is you who have to act using your knowledge intelligence, discrimination and experience. Fate is like a game of cards where you cannot help the cards that have been dealt to you but how to play them is in your hands. You may get good cards but if you play badly you will lose and you may get bad cards and still may win if you play carefully. Don’t blame the roadmap if you get drunk, drive badly and have an accident! In the Mahabharata Lord Krishna gave advise to Arjuna and also to Duryodhana. One listened and the other did not!
In the Egyptian, Greek, western and Chinese systems of astrology only the birth chart is cast to give predictions. This is hopelessly inaccurate and insufficient. For example, moon, the fastest moving of the nine planets, remains in one sign fro two and half days. The ascendant, or Lagna, extends for a period of two hours. In these two hours, according to the present birth rate, several thousand people are born in the world with the same birth chart! All of them cannot have the same destiny. Hence their predictions based on this and the monthly transits tends to be inaccurate. They are somewhat accurate about the nature of signs etc., but when it comes to predicting the events in ones life and their timing they are nowhere. You don’t really need an astrologer to tell you that, for example if you are Scorpio sign, you tend to be jealous and possessive! Vedic astrology has a four dimensional approach.

Firstly, we have the divisional chart system, called the Varga system. Based on the planetary degrees at the time of birth, sixteen divisional charts are prepared, by dividing the degrees of the planets. These divisional charts are studied to ascertain the strength and weakness of planets and houses and also to study various aspects of ones life. For example, one-ninth division called Navamsa to study spouse and married life, one-tenth division to study profession, one-seventh for children and so on. The last Varga, called Shodashamsa, is prepared by dividing the planet’s degrees in to one-sixtieth part! Second is the dasa system. Based on ones moons degrees at birth, we calculate the Dasas, or the ruling periods of various planets, which keeps changing during ones life. It is not just one planets dasa but Maha dasa, or main dasa, of a planet, Antardasa, or sub period, of another planet and so on till we arrive at a fifth level dasa to study each day.

Third is the Gochara, or transit of planets. Planets transiting various houses produce various results. But a planet transits a sign for quite some time. For example Saturn transits a sign for two and half years. During this entire period its results cannot be totally good or bad. Vedic astrology further pinpoints its good and bad periods even during its transit in one sign. We have the Asthakavarga and Prastharasthakavarga system, which divides a planets transit in a sign into eight parts and shows which part is good and which part is bad.

Lastly, there is the Prasna Kundali system, or chart cast based on the time of the query. This is studied as an add-on chart to give predictions. The modern scientists do not accept astrology. But it is a known fact that planets do have their effects on us. The doctors of almost all mental asylums accept the fact that during the full moon and the new Moon periods the mental patients behave erratically. The police record the same effects on many criminals. The modern scientists know some of the effects of the ultraviolet rays, gamma rays and beta rays of the planets. But unfortunately they don’t have the divine wisdom of our ancient is to know all the effects fully.

Astrology is a system of divination founded on the notion that the relative positions of celestial bodies are signs of or—more controversially among astrologers—causes of destiny, personality, human affairs, and natural events.The primary astrological bodies are the sun, moon, and planets; although astrology is commonly characterized as "reading the stars", the stars actually play a minor role. The main focus is on the placement of the seven planets relative to each other and to the signs of the zodiac, though the system does allow reference to fixed stars, asteroids, comets, and various mathematical points of interest as well. As a craft, astrology is a combination of basic astronomy, numerology, and mysticism. In its modern form, it is a classic example of pseudoscience.

Although numerology has been around for millenium, its true origins remain a mystery. Thousands of years ago, early civilizations in Egypt and Babylon both recognized the power of numbers. Its quite possible that numerology has been in existence since the human race learned to count.
Numerology is the study of numbers as it relates to aptitudes and character tendencies. Each letter of the alphabet has a numeric value or frequency that relates to it's vibration. The sum of the numbers in your birth date and sum of the value derived from the letters in your name, provide a road map of vibrations.
Numerology expresses a great deal about a person's character, purpose in life, motivations, career, romantic characteristics, luck and talents. Numerology experts use the numbers to determine the best time for major activities in one's life. Numerology has been used for investment forecasting, marriage counselling, travel advice, carrer consulting, and even relocation advice.

The Equinox & Solstice Ceremonies of the Golden Dawn By Pat Zalewski, Chris Zalewski
Publisher: Llew..ellyn Publ.icat.ions 1992 | 163 Pages | ISBN: 0875428991 | PDF | 11 MB

The first chapter in this book covers the astromagnetic theory. Basic astrology and the Golden Dawn version of the map ofthe heavens are discussed, as well as a scientific evaluation of the magnetic theory of the earth's aura. The second chapter covers the various solar myths and legends throughout the ages but mainly concentrates on the Egyptian pantheon, which is to a certain extent the mainstay of Golden Dawn archetypes. The third chapter is the full version of the Equinox ceremony which, to the best of our knowledge, represents the first time in print in this form. The fourth chapter gives the commentary on the Equinox ceremony. The fifth chapter is the Consecration of the Vault ceremony, while the sixth chapter is the commentary on it. The seventh chapter is the Equinox ceremony used by Waite's Holy Order of the Golden Dawn. Although it is dated 1910, I suspect it was in use at least as early as 1903, though I will leave this for the scholars to sort out. This final chapter of Waite's ritual is worth studying for, according to Waite, his concept was based on the Golden Dawn rituals. In spite of what many people say about Waite, he had tremendous knowledge-and an ego to match.

The New Encyclopedia of the Occult By John Michael Greer
Publisher: Lle..wel..lyn Public...ations 2003 | 576 Pages | ISBN: 1567183360 | PDF | 165 MB

In his introduction, Greer states that his book is the first written by an "occult practitioner" who has consulted the scholarly texts that have recently been written about the history of occult traditions. This combination has produced a reference work that is sympathetic to the arcane lore but avoids many of the common errors found in occult literature. The volume arranges its 1,500 entries in alphabetical order. Topics include magic, Tarot, astrology, and other forms of divination; magical orders such as the Golden Dawn; biographies of significant individuals; and spiritual movements such as Wicca, Theosophy, and the modern Pagans. Where appropriate, entries contain see references to other entries and to books found in the extensive bibliography. Illustrations include charts, diagrams, and photographs.
The essays are clearly written and are very informative. The book is useful for the practitioner as well as for the curious because the contents are factual and concise. The author promises that as new information becomes available on topics, he will publish a revised edition to maintain the integrity and accuracy of the volume. This is an important source for libraries to have in their collections to assist anyone seeking information about the many aspects of occult traditions.

GEM STONES

All the religions of the world mention the use of crystals or gemstones for protection, healing and contemplation, and as being a guide through the development of a person's individuality on a spiritual and material plane.
In every world's nation there has been and still exist experts who know the "secret" relationship between humans and stones whether through scientific methods, or through insight and identification with the matter.
The effects and the use of crystals or gemstones are often mentioned in the astrology of the East and the West, and this science connects crystals and gemstones with the influence of planets and stars affecting the whole of living with the spectrum of their radiation.
Determining the appropriate crystal or gemstone through the use of Astrology depends on the position of planets at the moment of birth and if the influence of a certain planet is considered "disturbing", it is recommended that a person wears a certain crystal or gemstone to diminish or neutralise these negative influences.
Astrologers emphasize that since each crystal and gemstone is unique, the precise choice has to be made.
The real value of an expert is the capability to recognise and divide the nature, shape and meaning of the crystal or gemstone from it's emitting vibration and energy; the energy that actually creates this "union" with the person who wears it.
Possible effects range from strong to subtle ones, and every effect affects the psychological as well as physical plane;knowledge of which is familiar to the expert person and could be passed on to you, too.

The birth-stone's effects in individuals
Energy: Stabilizes the energy flow (Chackras) in and around the body.
Magnetism: After the stabilisation of energy, a healthy relationship (polarity) occurs between the body cells.
Psychic Influence: Helps in realising inner peace and stable directed consciousness.
Fitness: Becouse of before mentioned effects, a condition of energy conservation is attained, resulting in increase of physical energy (body warmth).
Protection: If performs a protection from psychic and mental influences.
Health: Helps in maintaining the physical immunity and in neutralising any existing difficulties.
Self-help: Placing your birth-stone on a troubled area, in the contact with the skin, you are performing self-help which can in a short time-span (5-10 min.) neutralise mild pains.

Directions: It is undesirable to let any other person but you touch your birthstone. You can give help to another person only in cases of emergency. It is advised to keep the stone with you at all times. If you are separated from it for longer than 21 days there is a possibility that the stone will change it's vibration, and thereby break it's "contact" with you. In such a case, consult the expert.

Jyotish gems have been prescribed by Vedic Astrologers for many centuries to combat the negative influences of the planets. Each planet has a corresponding gem. In India, the proper method of determining the right gem is to do a lifetime chart for the querent based on birth information. The proper stone is then prescribed. The stone must be worn in a ring or bracelet.

How to wear the stone

To obtain the full benefic effect of stone, wear it while Moon is waxing on the specified day and time. Wearing it in the specified Nakshatra enhances the benefic effects of the stone. Take the stone of a size specified or greater in fractions of 1/4 Ratti rejecting fractions of 3/4 Ratti like 4 - 1/4 Ratti. Get it studded in the specified metal such that it touches the finger from bottom. If you are making a pendant then it should also touch your body.

Before wearing it light lamp and incense stick and meditate on your God. Clean the ring in fresh milk and then Ganga water. Perform pooja and recite the specified mantra 108 times. Then wear the stone in the specified finger of your Left hand. After wearing the ring give alms as specified for that stone.

If you are already wearing a stone then avoid wearing a contradictory stone as per the table below. By wearing the stone as specified here gives more benefic results in much lesser time.

Vaidya Jyotisham or Medical astrology (traditionally known as Iatromathematics) is an ancient medical system that associates various parts of the body, diseases, and drugs as under the influence of the sun, moon, and planets, along with the twelve astrological signs. Each of the astrological signs (along with the sun, moon, and planets) is associated with different parts of the human body. The underlying basis for medical astrology, astrology itself, is considered to be a pseudoscience or superstition as there is no scientific basis for its core beliefs.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4] ^[5]^[6]^[7]

Hindu Astrology

2011-09-03T10:37:00.001-07:00

One of the unique characteristics of Hinduism is that it never throws anything away. There is simply no one to do it! Hinduism has no central authority and so there is no one body that “edits” the tradition. Consequently, astrology is still a vibrant part of the tradition. In the West, with the onset of modern science, astrology became separated from both the mainstream sciences (astronomy) and the religious tradition. Descartes was an astrologer and so were Copernicus and Galileo. Today you can not find a department of Astrology in any university in the West. This has tended to be the case in other religions as well, but not so in Hinduism. In fact, I have met many Western educated and highly placed Hindus who still hold a deep faith in astrology and regularly visit astrologers for advice on important issues. Astrology is still an important requirement for a Hindu priest. Not a day goes by without members coming to a priest for information on muhurta, birth names, and other kinds of astrological advice. Nava Graha puja is one of the most popular pujas performed by a Hindu priest. Therefore, it is worth while to have a general understanding of Hindu astrology.

Western and Hindu Astrology

Hindu astrology, also called Vedic astrology, is not the same has Western astrology. In the West most people know their astrological sign and they may even check their horoscope in the newspapers, if only for “entertainment purposes.” But if you think you are an Aries, a Taurus or a Gemini in Western astrology, this is not the case with Hindu astrology. Western astrology is tropical and Hindu astrology is sidereal. Western astrology is based on the orientation of the Earth to the sun, whereas Hindu astrology is based on the actual position of the stars relative to the earth. Understanding this difference is technical and not a matter that needs to be explained here, suffice to say, that the starting point of Western astrology is not the same as the starting point of Hindu astrology. This does not mean that one form is better than the other, it just means they are different and so you cannot compare one with the other. If you are an Aries in Western astrology, in Hindu astrology you may not be the same.

The Workings of Astrology

Astrology works at two levels, one practical and the other symbolic. We already see how various celestial bodies exert unseen forces on terrestrial life and thereby influence the way we act. The best and most obvious example is the influence of the sun and moon on the tides. This is the effect of gravity. Science also shows that a planet, even as far a way as Jupiter, has a considerable gravitational influence, not only on the earth, but throughout the whole solar system. We can also see how the solar wind and storms affect the weather, satellite communications and electrical power grids on earth. Similarly, science shows the existence of unseen cosmic rays and minute particles that constantly bombard the earth from great distances, which even have an effect on genetic mutation. The effect of gravity, solar winds and storms, and particle bombardment indeed determines the way we act on our planet, so if these forces can affect terrestrial life, why not the other planets? Just because Western science has not measured the influence of Mars and Venus and Saturn on the lives of human beings does not mean that such influences are not there. Cosmic particle bombardment was only recently measured, and had someone suggested such bombardments 50 years ago it would have been dismissed as foolish by the same science that now informs us about it. Yet virtually all ancient cultures have noted the influence of the sun and the moon and the planets on the affairs of terrestrial life. They tell us that these bodies exert subtle influences on life that in turn affects the way we think and act. Modern science has just not understood and measured these influences yet. It is not unreasonable, therefore, to accept the working of astrology. This is a practical way to understand how astrology works.

Hinduism, however, speaks of the workings of astrology in an even more subtle way, through the power of symbols. There is a famous hymn from the Rig Veda called the Purusha Sukta, (RV 10.90) which describes the relationship between this universe and God. The sun corresponds to the eye of God, the moon to His mind, space to His navel, the wind to His breathing, the mountains to His bones, and so forth. In fact this universe is the living body of God and all beings are existing within this universal body. Even ourselves, the living beings, are emanations from this God, and along with this physical universe we are parts who have emanated from the whole. This idea of the parts and the whole is especially mentioned in the Upanishads as a deeply mystical relationship. The Ishopanishad refers to this relationship when it describes the Whole as complete (purnam) and from this Whole so many other whole units emanate and yet the Whole remains complete. This is something like if you have a pie and you take a slice away from the whole, the pie does not get smaller. It remains the same, and even though we may take many slices away, the whole pie still remains. But the matter is even more paradoxical, contained within the individual pie slices is the whole pie. The parts contain the whole! A way to think of how this is possible is through an understanding of DNA. Within in a single hair strand, a tiny part of the whole, can be found all the information to make the whole person. The part contains the whole. Another example is a holographic projection. Each photon of light, which is just a part of the whole projection, contains within itself an image of the original whole projection. This relationship between the whole and its parts is viewed as a deep and mysterious relationship, and one that has had profound effects on Hindu culture, not only philosophically and theologically, but also practically in terms of astrology and even Hindu architecture.

Once you start thinking that the whole is embedded within every part of this creation you can start seeing a relationship between the outer world and the inner world, between the microcosm and the macrocosm. This means that by measuring the outer world, one can grasp an understanding of the inner world. But even more importantly, by influencing the outer world one can influence the inner world. Thus we have the foundations of Hindu astrology. Astrology is a measurement of the outer world that allows an understanding of the inner world. The astrological chart is a snapshot, not only of the universe at a certain time and place, but also a snapshot of the inner life of an individual at a certain time and place. In other words, the planets we see in the heavens above have a corresponding set of “planets” within. There is a Mars above us and a Mars within us. Read the meaning of the Mars on the outside and you get an understanding of the Mars within. Align yourself to the Jupiter without and you align yourself to the Jupiter within.

Later Vedic works like the Puranas expand on these ideas to describe how this gross physical world is an expansion from subtle energy. From our thoughts and desires, manifests our physical existence and from our physical actions our future thoughts and desires are derived. This is, of course, is the idea of karma and how our destiny is shaped by past and future actions. Thus our desires and actions become tied to both universes, the one on the outside and the on the inside.

The Horoscope

The word "horoscope" actually has a Sanskritic basis. “Hora” is a “moment of time” similar to muhurtha, and “scope” comes from the Greek “skopos” meaning to target, and so a horoscope is literally a targeted moment of time. This is what I call a snapshot of time. By focusing on a particular moment in time through the “coordinates” of birth time, birth date and birth place, the horoscope isolates a particular part of the whole that corresponds to a particular individual, and by reading that moment in time, one is able to “read” the individual. This is the basis of astrology. There are two other commonly heard words used by Hindi speakers to refer to the horoscope. They are kundali and janma patri. A kundali is a circle and janma patri is the “birth page.” The horoscope is a circular diagram and so the word kundali is used. It is common to have a person’s horoscope prepared immediately upon birth, hence the birth page. As we noted a horoscope is nothing more than a snapshot of time, which also means that it is a snapshot of the sky. More specifically, it is a symbolic representation of the sky at a particular moment in time. Usually this is the time of one’s birth, but not necessarily so. A horoscope can be prepared for any occasion, the construction of a building, the time of a marriage, the signing of a contract, and so on.

The Zodiac

Under the section, The Making of the Hindu Calendar, we mentioned the solar ecliptic. The sun’s path across the sky from east to west and extending about 10 degrees above and below this ecliptic is known as the band of the zodiac. This 360 degree band is divided into twelve 30 degree segments known as the signs of the zodiac, rashis in Sanskrit. The first sign is Aries, which is then followed by Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, and so on. Both Western and Hindu astrology use these signs of the zodiac in the same order. In Hindu astrology, not only is this system of zodiac signs used, but there is also another way of dividing the zodiac and this is the nakshatras system, which divides the zodiac into twenty-seven 13 1/3 degree segments called nakshatras. This adds another level of interpretation to Hindu astrology that is not found in Western astrology. We will not be discussing this Nakshatra system of interpretation as it goes into more details than necessary here.

When an astrological chart is prepared, Hindu astrology first calculates the astronomical position of nine celestial influences (see Nava Graha) and then places them on a symbolic diagram called a horoscope. In addition to these nine influences, the sign that is rising above the eastern horizon for the time of the event is also calculated and shown on the horoscope. This is called the ascending sign of the zodiac or the lagna in Sanskrit. This ascending sign then becomes the starting point or first house of interpretation for the chart.

Southern Chart

Northern Chart

There are different ways of expressing this “snapshot” of the sky. The most common North Indian method uses a set of diamond shaped boxes to show the various signs of the zodiac and it is read in a counter clockwise direction. The typical South Indian method uses a system of rectangular boxes that is read in a clockwise direction. There is also a Bengali style that is read in a counterclockwise direction. See the illustrations. All these methods do the same thing, namely symbolically show the various celestial influences at a particular moment in time and place, and in their respective signs of the zodiac.

So far as preparing a chart is concerned, the endeavor is simply astronomy, a description or snapshot of the sky. The astrology comes in when we attempt to derive meaning from celestial bodies and their positions in the zodiac. What does it mean to have Mars in Aries or the moon in Leo. What does it mean when Saturn is with Mars in Aries? What does it mean when Jupiter is five zodiac signs after the moon? What does it mean when the sun and Saturn are 180 degrees apart? The answers to these questions constitutes astrology.

Astrology, which involves the analysis of a intricate system of planetary and other relationships and their subsequent interpretations, cannot be adequately described in this short discussion. It is possible, however, to provide a basic understanding of how an astrologer approaches his craft, which can be useful if a person ever goes to to an astrologer to have a horoscope prepared and read.

In Hindu astrology the nine celestial influences that are used for interpretation are: the sun, the moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, and the north and south lunar nodes (Rahu and Ketu). There are other influences that are sometimes examined, but they are not important for our purposes. In addition to these 9 celestial influences, an astrologer will also examine the signs of the zodiac where these celestial influences are located, the houses in which they are residing, and certain key relationships between these components. In addition, an astrologer will also calculate the planetary periods (dashas) that are used to determine when events are likely to occur in a particular chart. Each of the celestial bodies, plus the signs of the zodiac and the houses carry symbolic meanings that are used to make an astrological interpretation. Here is a brief description of the symbolic meaning of the celestial bodies, the astrological the signs and the houses of interpretation, which will be useful in understanding how an astrologer makes a reading.

The Nine Celestial Influences

The sun is the soul, the heart, the father, authority, heat, power and ambition.
The moon is the mind, mother, water, coolness, emotions, memory and common sense.
Mars is courage, bravery, sports, competition, maleness, passion, action, war, cuts and burns.
Mercury is intelligence, learning, teaching, speech, expression, communication and writing.
Jupiter is fortune, expansion, wealth, children, religion, philosophy and wisdom.
Venus is marriage, love, romance, luxuries, prosperity, femininity, artistic expression, grace, and beauty.
Saturn is slowness, struggle, discipline, dryness, labor, asceticism, accidents, and chronic disease.
Rahu is material desire, dullness, ignorance, laziness, sleep and addictions and ancestral karma.
Ketu is asceticism, spirituality, psychic ability, ghosts, eccentricity and occultism.

The Signs of the Zodiac

Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and is ruled by Mars and so has many of the qualities of this planet. Aries is action, impulse, independence, force, self-expression and competition.
Taurus is the next sign and is ruled by Venus. Taurus is the earth, feelings, stability, conservation, relationships and partnerships.
Gemini is ruled by Mercury. Gemini is energy, nervousness, restlessness, intellect, language, artistic ability, and communications.
Cancer is ruled by the moon, which is mind and the mother. Cancer is openness, friendship, sympathy, care, nurturing, emotions, family and the home.
Leo is ruled by the sun and therefore stands for heat, order, harmony, and central control. Leo is ambition, power will, pride, show and drama.
Virgo is ruled by Mercury. Virgo stands for intellect, command of language, nervousness and sensitivity. Virgo is also detail and precision.
Libra is ruled by Venus. Libra is leadership, power, command of ideas and idealism. Libra is reform, revolution, prophets, and even fanaticism.
Scorpio is ruled by Mars. Scorpio is secretive, sensual, sexual and eccentric. Scorpio is both physical and mental, and so stands for martial force as well as psychic force.
Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter and stands for grace, beneficence, completion and harmony. Sagittarius is expansion, morality, justice, philosophy and religion.
Capricorn is ruled by Saturn and therefore signifies hard work, perseverance, tenacity and accomplishment. Capricorn is also power, order and organization.
Aquarius is also ruled by Saturn and tends to exhibit the dark side of Saturn. Aquarius is deviation, occultism, eccentricity, but also includes sacrifice, humanitarianism, ingenuity and faith.
Pisces is ruled by Jupiter. Pisces stands for emotion, expansion, intuition, liberation and imagination. Pisces is also dependance and conservatism.

The Houses

There are 12 houses of interpretation. The first house is always determined by the place of the rising sign, the second house follows after that, and so on. Each of the houses have the following symbolic importance:

The first house is the house of life purpose and physical existence. It indicates the self, the ego, character, appearance, the head and general well being.
The second house is money, wealth, self expression, knowledge, speech, family and imagination.
The third house shows courage, bravery, efforts, adventures, brothers and sisters, enthusiasm and motivations.
The fourth house shows mother, the heart, land, buildings, comforts, vehicles, happiness and ancestral property.
The fifth house is children, intelligence, learning, destiny, government, investment, romance, and charity.
The sixth house shows health, illness, enemies, litigation, obstacles, subordinates and employees.
The seventh house is the spouse, married life, relationships, partners, and foreign residence.
The eighth house is longevity, death, wills and inheritance, legacy, taxes, occult matters, secrets and sex.
The Ninth house is father, fortune, solutions, religion, philosophy, faith, worship, wisdom and long journeys.
The ten house shows career, fame, worldly power, professional activities, honors, and life purpose.
The eleventh house shows gains, wealth, opportunities, major goals and desires,
The twelfth house is expenditure, loss, insanity, imprisonment, final salvation, the state after death, secret sexual pleasures, and life in remote places.

Planetary periods

Hindu astrologers have observed that life has certain “moods” or “phases,” which are governed by the nine celestial influences. In Sanskrit these planetary periods are called periods (dashas). Every life has a sun period, a moon period, a Mars period, a Jupiter period, and so on. These periods last for different time lengths. A sun period always lasts for six years, a moon period for ten years, a Mars period for seven years, a Venus period for twenty years, etc., so that the total number of years for all the planetary periods is 120 years. Why the length of each planetary period varies and how these planetary periods are determined is a technical matter that goes beyond the scope of this discussion, suffice to say that each chart will have these different planetary periods. The value in knowing the planetary periods is to understand when, for example, the influence of the sun will be strongest in the person’s life and therefore to know when sun related influences are most likely to occur. The same for the moon and Mars, and all the other planets. This helps in prediction. You might compare the idea of planetary periods to music. For a certain time a song may be in the key of C, then the song changes to the key of D minor, and then to another key. During the “C period” the music will have a certain sound and mood, but when it changes to D minor the music exhibits a different sound and mood. In this way a life will go through its different planetary periods and during each period will have a certain tone and mood, so to speak. Planetary periods are also divided into smaller sub-periods and then even into sub-sub-periods. This gives the astrologer even more ability to make predictions. The matter of planetary periods is complex, but at least to know in a general way about these periods will help a person understand how an astrologer reads a chart.

Interpretation

How astrologers derive meaning from these symbols is logical and easy to understand. What would it mean, for example, if Mars, the planet of conflict and war, was in the fourth house of home along with the moon, the planet of mother and mind? This would suggest troubles with mother, troubles in the home and disturbances of the mind. Instead of Mars what would it mean if Jupiter was in the fourth house along with the moon? This would suggest prosperity in the home, happiness with mother, and peace in the mind. What would it mean if Saturn and Mars, the planets of struggle and conflict, were together in the 10th house of career? This would suggest conflict, delay, and struggles, yet the drive to success in one’s career. And what if Mars was in the seventh house of marriage? This would suggest war and conflict within the marriage and perhaps even divorce. And what if the moon or Jupiter, positive influences, were in the seventh house instead of Mars. This would be good for marriage and suggests happiness and children. These examples are simple and straight forward, but life is more complicated that this. What would it mean, therefore, if the moon and Jupiter were in the seventh house of marriage along with Saturn or Mars? In this case we have good influences mixed with evil influences. Would this mean some good and some bad effects? But how much good and how much evil? And when would the good occur and when would the evil occur? Would the marriage even survive? Would a second marriage also have these mixed effects? Now the matter becomes complicated and only the careful and experienced analysis of a trained astrologer can sort these influences out and make an informed opinion about the marriage. Astrologers have many mathematical systems to measure the strengths of these influences and to determine the times in life when these influences, both positive and negative, will be in force. Even though more detail on this topic goes beyond the scope of this discussion, the reader, at least, has an idea of how an astrologer approaches his craft. There is a lot of learning that goes into a sound astrological interpretation.

Gems and Pujas

Once a chart has been analyzed and a reading given, it is common to find both negative and positive influences within a chart. Even a “good” planet may bestow negative results and a “bad” planet can bestow positive results under the right conditions, and so a client may want a way to diminish these negative effects or even increase the positive influences. In Hinduism there are many ways that this can be done, but the two most common ways are through the wearing of gems or the performance of puja. The idea behind the wearing of gems is as follows. Every planetary influence has both a positive and negative side. The moon, for example, is generally a positive influence, but it also has a negative side, dark emotions and insanity. Mars is generally not a positive influence. It is war and conflict, but it is also courage and strength–good qualities. So even Mars has a positive side. In general, planets that are strongly positioned in a chart bestow their positive side and planets that are weakly positioned bestow their negative side. Each planet is also associated with a certain gem stone (and even a metal and a color, etc.) Jupiter is yellow sapphire, the Moon is white pearl, Mercury is green emerald, Mars is red coral, and so forth. By wearing the gem of a particular planet one increases the power of that planet and thereby brings out the positive qualities of that planet. If the moon is weak in a chart, one could increase the power of the moon by wearing a pearl. A yellow sapphire would increase the strength of Jupiter; an emerald would increase the effect of mercury; a diamond would do the same for venus, etc. The gem would also be put on at a time when the influence of the respective planet is highest. For example, a pearl, for the moon, would first be put on during a Monday, the moon’s day. A diamond would be put on for Venus on Friday. In this way, you can often get a good indication of a person’s astrological condition by noticing the kinds of rings they wear. People will often wear multiple rings for various astrological reasons.

The idea behind an astrological puja is as follows. If it is determined that Mars is a enemy in a particular chart, in other words, Mars exerts a negative influence, then a puja for Mars could be performed. During the puja, symbolically Mars is invited and treated as a guest and shown all respect and honor by being bathed, fed and given gifts, etc. In other words, one way to neutralize an enemy is to make him your friend. The idea behind a puja is to invite your enemy over for a “visit” and make him your friend by honoring him food and gifts and thereby decreasing his negative influence over you. The appropriate gem, a red coral in the case of Mars, may also be put on during the Mars puja. And of course, the puja would be performed on a Tuesday, Mar’s day. These kinds of astrological pujas are called Nava Graha pujas and they are commonly performed within Hinduism. By far the most commonly performed astrological pujas are for Saturn, Mars and Rahu, the three most “cruel” of celestial influences.

The Uses of Astrology

Hindu astrology is a vast subject and in these short pages I have tried to explain in simple terms the basic workings of astrology, how an astrologer makes an interpretation and some of the techniques that astrologers use to affect positive change. In the hands of an experienced astrologer, astrology can be a powerful tool for good. It can give insights into one’s character, into one’s strengths and weaknesses, and into the subtle forces around us, but like any tool it must be used with discretion and caution, and it has limitations. An immature astrologer can cause havoc in the minds of parents by telling them of a child’s future diseases, divorce and even premature death. On the other hand, an astrologer can see hidden talents and encourage parents to cultivate these strengths within their child. An astrological chart can be used to understand the basic psychology of a couple and thereby help a troubled relationship. It can give a partner insight and strategies in dealing with a difficult relationship. But astrology can also lead to dependency, and to a situation where a person avoids taking responsibility for one’s life. So like most things in life it has positive and negative aspects. It is to the credit of Hinduism that it has managed to keep within its fold an ancient discipline such as astrology. As the world continues to develop and move ahead it is good that there are traditions like Hinduism that preserve and even keep thriving one of the oldest of all human pursuits.

Astronomy

Pancanga–The Hindu Almanac
(DRAFT)

"Time creates the sky and the earth. Time creates that past and the future. By Time the sun burns, through Time all beings exist, in Time the eyes see. Time is the lord of all."

This verse from the Atharva-veda (19.54) expresses the importance of time in Hindu culture. In India time is conceived as an unending flow that moves in great cycles. The Matsya Purana speaks of the waters of time. (See: Heinrisch Zimmer, Myths ans Symbols in Indian Art and Civilization Bollingen Series, Princeton University Press, p. 27) Sometimes those waters move in a peaceful way, sometime they move in great and chaotic torrents. So it is with time. The movements of the sun and the moon, and the other celestial bodies are the indication of this flow of time. The Bhagavata Purana describes how the passage of the sun across the atoms on this earth creates the reckoning of time. The record of time is the pancanga wherein the movements of these celestial bodies are precisely recorded. No religious festival, family event, or even a civic affair is performed without first consulting the pancanga to know the favorable movement of this flow of time.

The Sanskrit word "pancanga" is made of two parts: panca and anga. Panca means five and anga means a limb or part. Thus the pancanga is a document made of five parts. These five parts are the tithi (lunar day), the vara (day of the week), the naksatra (lunar mansion), the yoga (luni-solar day) and the karana (half lunar day).

In order to understand these terms it is important to know how astronomers measure the sky. Just as a road map uses miles or kilometers to show distance between cities, so a celestial sky map uses degrees to show apparent distance between celestial objects. Keeping in mind that there are 360 degrees in a circle, it is easy to measure approximate degrees in the sky. Just raise your hand to the sky, and at arm's length, use your hand to measure the degrees in the sky. See the accompaning illustration that shows how the hand can be used to measure degrees in the sky.

At arm's length, for example, the width of the end of the little finger is almost one degree across. Check to see that the moon is about half a little finger in width and therefore can be estimated to be about a half a degree wide. This system is reasonably accurate for men, women and children, since people with smaller hands tend to have shorter arms. Astronomers have used this hand technique for thousands of years to make approximate measurements of the sky. To see how this system can be used to measure a common constellation see the illustration of the sapta-rsi (big dipper) and the star dhruva (polaris) to measure the degrees of separation.

As we begin to discuss the five elements of the Hindu almanac it is important to recognize the importance of the moon in Hindu culture. The basic calendar is primarily a lunar calendar. The lunar day, called a tithi, is all important in selecting a favorable time to begin a certain task. A person's name is often derived from the lunar position in the heavens called a naksatra. The reason for this is simple. In Hindu astrology the moon rules the mind.

Tithi (Lunar Phase)

The first element of the Hindu pancanga is the tithi or lunar phase. This is perhaps the single most important element of the pancanga. It is the building block for the lunar month. Simply stated a tithi is a measurement of 12 degrees of longitudinal separation between the sun and the moon. Another way to put it is to say that a tithi is the daily phase of the moon. For example, at new moon (amavasya) the sun and the moon are separated by zero degrees. We can say they overlap. As they begin to separate the first tithi begins when the sun and the moon have separated by 12 degrees. The moon is now a tiny almost imperceptable sliver. The second tithi begins when they are separated by 24 degrees. The sliver is slightly larger. The third tithi begins when they have separated by 36 degrees. The digit of the moon is new clearly visible. And so it goes until the sun and moon have separated by 180 degrees. This tithi is called full moon, purnima. These first 15 tithis or phases of the moon make up the waxing phases of the moon which in Sanskrit this is called the sukla-paksa. This is the bright side of the lunar month. After purnima, full moon, the tithi begins again counting from one as the longitudanal separation between the sun and the moon decreases back to zero. This is called the waning phase of the moon or in Sanskrit, the krsna-paksa or dark side of the lunar month. At certain times of the month when the sun and moon can both be seen in the sky at the same time you can estimate the tithi by using the hand method to measure the longitudinal separation between the sun and the moon.

The tithis are sequentially numbered from both the points of the new moon as well as the full moon. See the accompaning illustration. In this way, the sukla-paksa, begining with the new moon (amavasya), is followed by the first tithi, then the second tithi, the third tithi and so on up to the 14th tithi. There is no 15th tithi. Instead, this tithi is called full moon (purnima). After the full moon, the waning phase (krsna-paksa) again begins with the first tithi, the second tithi, the third tithi and so on up to the fourteenth tithi followed by the full moon. Afterwards the cycle repeats itself. In this way thirty tithis make up a lunar month, which is known as a masa. Some parts of India begin the month from the full moon whereas other parts begin the month from the new moon. Today, the lunar calendar is still in use throughout the world for Hindu religious purposes.

One of the greatest points of confusion between Hindu festival dates and the modern solar calendar is that the solar day begins at midnight whereas the lunar tithi can begin at anytime of the solar day. For practical purposes, however, the tithi that is current at sunrise is taken as the prevailing tithi for the day. This means that if a tithi begins just after sunrise and ends before the sunrise of the next day, it is eliminated.This is possible because the tithi can last between 19 to 26 hours due to the changing speed of the earth and moon in their obits. On average a tithi lasts for only 0.95 of a solar day. When this occurs a break in the numerical ordering of the days takes place. These factors cause a lot of confusion between the lunar Hindu calendar and the modern solar calendar.

From an astrological perspective the various tithis are considered either auspicious or inauspicious for different events. In general the sukla-paksa (bright side) is considered condusive to growth, increase and properity and would be selected for such occasions as weddings, moving into new homes or starting businesses, etc. The moon's krsna-paksa (dark side) is considered less favorable. In addition the 8th and 14th tithis, amavasya, as well as the 1st tithi of the sukla-paksa are generally considered inuaspicious. There are of course exceptions to this rule, the most notable of which are the various post funerary rites (sraddhas) that prefer the lunar dark phases. See the article "Hindu Funeral Rites and Ancestor Worship."

Vara (The Day of the Week)

The second element of the Hindu pancanga is the day, vara. In Sanskrit the days of the week are clearly named after seven major astrological influences:

Sunday, the sun, ravi-vara

Monday, the moon, soma-vara

Tuesday, Mars, mangala-vara

Wednesday, Mercury, budha-vara

Thursday, Jupiter, guru-vara

Friday, Venus sukra-vara

Saturday, Saturn, sani-vara

You can still see this astrological influence in the English names, Sunday, Monday and Saturday for the sun, the moon and Saturn respectively. If you examine the French and Spanish words for the days of the week you will see an even greater connection. Astrologically these days are named after these celestial bodies because the influence of that celestial body is said to be prominent on that day. For example, Tuesday, being ruled by Mars, the planet of war, would be a good date to enter into a battle, but not a good day to get married or move into a new home!

Naksatra (Lunar Mansion)

The third element of the pancanga is naksatra. The best way to understand naksatra is to observe the moon some evening. Notice the moon's position in relation to the background of stars. The next evening, at the same time and in the same location, again observe the moon's position in relation to the background of stars. You will see that it has moved consideralably. Use the raised hand technique to estimate how many degrees the moon has moved. The moon has moved somewhere between 10 and 15 degrees. In fact the moon has moved 13 degrees and 20 minutes. The region of the sky that has been displaced by the moon's eastward movement in one day is called a naksatra. In English this known as a lunar mansion. There are 27 such lunar mansions in the 360 degrees the moon travels in one lunar month ( 13.3 x 27 = ~360). In the Hindu Almanac each of these lunar mansions is named after a star or group of stars in each region of the sky.

The naksatra is very important in Hindu culture. At the time of birth a person's horoscope is made and one of the most important items to be known is the naksatra. Many elements of a person's character is thought to be determined by the naksatra. (Remember that the moon stands for the mind in Hindu astrology.) In many regions of India a person's name is based on the naksatra. Perhaps the first syllable of the name is derived from the naksatra. At the time of a puja or religious ceremony a priest will ask for the naksatra of the person performing the religious service so that it can be recited in the opening statement of the puja called a sankalpa. At the time of marriage considerations the naksatras of the both the bride and groom may be compared to check for pschological compatability.

The following is a list of the 27 naksatras along with their western astronomical designations. Note that in some cases it is difficult to determine exactly which western star name corresponds to the naksatras.

1. Asvini–alpha arietis (Hamal)

2. Bharani–41 arietis

3. Krttika–Pleiades

4. Rohini–alpha tauri (Aldebaran)

5. Mrgasirsa–lambda orionis (Bellatrix)

6. Ardra–alpha orionis (Betelgeuse)

7. Punarvasu–beta geminorum (Castor)

8. Pusya–delta canceri (area of M44 Beehive cluster)

9. Aslesa–alpha canceri (sometimes taken as the Hydra or Alphard)

10. Magha–alpha leonis (Regulus)

11. Purvaphalguni–delta leonis (lion's hind)

12. Uttara-phalguni–beta leonis (Denebola)

13. Hasta–gamma or delta corvi (Corvus)

14. Citra–alpha virginis (Spica)

15. Svati–alpha bootis (Arcturus)

16. Visakha–alpha libra

17. Anuradha–delta scorpionis

18. Jyestha–alpha scorpionis (Antares)

19. Mula–lambda scorpionis (near the globular cluster Shaula)

20. Purvasadha–delta sagittarii

21. Uttarasadha–sigma sagittarii (teapot)

22. Sravana–alpha aquilae (Altair)

23. Dhanistha–alpha delphini (Delphinis)

24. Satabhisa–lambda aqurii (Fomalhaut)

25. Purva-bhadrapada–alpha pegasi (Markab)

26. Uttara-bhadrapada–gamma pegasi

27. Revati–delta piscium

(To this group of 27 naksatras, one more naksatra known as abhit is sometimes added. Abhit includes the region of Vega in the constelation of Lyra. This is not on the path of the sun (solar eclipic) as are the other naksatras and so can be ignored.)

This system of 27 naksatra was the original Hindu way of dividing the 360 degrees of the solar ecliptic. The system of the twelve signs of the zodiac, in Sanskrit called rasi, was a later addition to Hindu astronomy.

Yoga (The Luni-solar Day)

The yoga (luni-solar day) is the period during which the combined longitudinal motion of the sun and moon amounts to 13 degrees and 20 minutes. Like the naksatras there are 27 yogas.

Karana (Half Tithi)

The final aspect of the pancanga is karana which is calculated to be 6 degrees of longitudinal separation between the sun and moon. In other words the karana is half a tihi. There are two karanas in each tithi. In total there are eleven karanas that rotate through the 30 tithis that make up the lunar month.

Both a karana and a yoga are similar to a tithi in the sense that they are all a measure of the relationship between the sun and moon. Recall that a tithi was 12 degrees of longitudinal separation between the sun and moon, the yoga is the combined longitudinal motion of the sun and the moon. Here the karana is half the tithi. In Hindu astrology the sun and the moon are both perceived to have a great effect on life, and their motions are precisely calculated.

In addition to these five part of the traditional Hindu calendar the follow other elements may be added.

Masa (Month)

The Hindu year contains twelve lunar months named after the naksatra in which the moon is full:

Caitra (March - April) (citra-naksatra)

Vaisakha (April - May) (visakha-naksatra)

Jyaistha (May - June) (jyestha-naksatra)

Asadha (June - July) (purvasadha-naksatra)

Sravana (July - August) (sravana-naksatra)

Bhadrapada (August - September) (purva-bhadrapada-naksatra)

Asvina (September - October) (asvini-naksatra)

Karttika (October - November) (krttika-naksatra)

Margasirsa or Agrahayana (November - December) (mrgasirsa-naksatra)

Pausa (December - January) (pusya-naksatra)

Magha (January - February) (magha-naksatra) and

Phalguna (February - March) (phalguna-naksatra).

Different parts of India start the year during different months. In general the year begins either in the vernal month of Caitra or in the autumnal month of Karttika.

Rtu (Season)

Traditionally India has six seasons (rtu), each comprised of two months. The six seasons are:

Vasanta (spring, March to May)

Grisma (summer, May to July)

Varsa (rainy, July to September)

Sarad (autumn, September to November)

Hemanta (winter, November to January) and

Sisira (cool, January to March)

Another aspect of the lunar calendar is that its twelve months based on the lunar days (tithis) contain about 354 days. So just as every 4th year on the solar calendar must add an extra day to make up for the discrepancy in the earth's orbit around the sun, so every 30 months the lunar calendar must add an extra month. This leap-month (adika-masa) is generally inserted after the months of Asadha or Sravana and is called either a second Asadha or Sravana. Thus every second or third year contains 13 months. This of course contributes considerably to differences between the lunar and solar calendars. The consequences of these differences makes it hard to reconcile the dates from one calendar to the other without intricate calculations.

Hindu Months and Time Eras

The Hindu Months

In Hindu astrology, as in Western astrology, the zodiac is divided into twelve signs (rasis). Each of the twelve signs is in thirty degree segment of the full zodiac. In addition to the twelve signs, the Hindu zodiac is further divided into twenty-seven naksatras or lunar mansions. Each naksatra is a thirteen degree and twenty minute segment of the zodiac. Specifically, a naksatra is the number of degrees the moon travels across the sky in a twenty-four hour period. The degrees of the twenty-seven naksatras when totaled together equal the three hundred and sixty degrees of the entire zodiac. The names of the Indian months originated from the names of the naksatras where purnima (the full moon) always takes place. Of the twenty-seven naksatras only twelve of them have full moons.
The names of the Hindu months with their corresponding Western periods are as follows:

Hindu Time Eras

India has many time eras. In general there are two kinds of eras: those named after prominent religious leaders and those named after kings. In addition, there are two annual time periods that mark the beginning of an era: the month of Caitra (March-April) and the month of Karttika (October-November). In the north the custom is to begin each year with Caitra (March-April) and each month with the full moon. But in the south and in Gujarat the years begin with Karttika (October-November) and the months with the new moon. The two most important eras are the Sakabda and the Samvat.
The Sakabda or Salivahana era (AD 78), now used throughout India, is the most important of all. It has been used not only in many Indian inscriptions but also in ancient Sanskrit inscriptions in Indochina and Indonesia. The reformed calendar promulgated by the Indian government from 1957 is reckoned by this era. It is variously alleged to have been founded by the Hindu king Salivahana. To reduce Saka dates to dates AD, 78 must be added for a date within the period ending with the day equivalent to December 31 and 79 for a later date.
The Samvat or Vikrama era (58 BC) is said in the Jain book Kalakacaryakatha to have been founded after a victory of King Vikramaditya over the Sakas. But some scholars credit the Scytho-Parthian ruler Azes with the foundation of this era. It is sometimes called the Malava era because Vikramaditya ruled over the Malava country, but it was not confined to this region, being widespread throughout India. The years reckoned in this era are generally indicated with the word vikramasamvat, or simple samvat. To reduce Vikrama dates to dates AD, 57 must be subtracted from the former for dates before January 1 and 56 for dates after.
The Bengali era is also known as the Laksmana era (AD 1119) said to have been founded by the king Laksmanasena of Bengal and still used throughout Bengal and preserved until modern times. To convert Bengali era to AD, 593 years must be added. The Caitanya era starts from the appearance of Caitanya Mahaprabhu in 1486. To convert the Caitanya era to dates AD add 1486 years to the Caitanya date. The Caitanya dating system is only in use by Caitanya Vaisnavas.

HIndu dates are usually given in the order: month, paksa and tithi, thus Caitra, sukla 7 means the seventh day from the new moon of the month of Caitra.

Rahu and Ketu–The Invisible Planets

Why do Hindus believe that the mythological demons Rahu and Ketu cause solar eclipses?

In Hindu mythology there is a wonderful story that describes how the gods and the demons once formed an alliance to produce a nectar that could give them immortality. This is the story of the churning of the milk-ocean and the descent of Lord Visnu as the Kurma avatara, the divine tortoise. When the nectar that was churned from this ocean was being served to the gods, a demon, disguised as a god, sat between the Sun and the Moon in an attempt to procure the nectar. When he was detected by the Sun and the Moon, Lord Visnu immediately severed his head from his body. Unfortunately, it was not fast enough, for the demon had already tasted a small quantity of the nectar and had become immortal. Ever since, this demon is said to wreak vengeance on the Sun and Moon whenever they come near. The head of this great demon is known as Rahu and his tail is known as Ketu.

In Hindu astrology Rahu and Ketu are known as two invisible planets. They are enemies of the Sun and the Moon, who at certain times of the year (during conjunction or opposition) swallow the Sun or the Moon causing either a solar or a lunar eclipse. In Sanskrit this is known as grahanam or seizing.
What perhaps sounds like a childish story is a powerful metaphor for what actually happens when an eclipse takes place. Rahu and Ketu are the astronomical points in the sky respectively called the north and south lunar nodes.
To the observer on earth, the paths of the sun and the moon appear to be two great circles projected on the celestial sphere (see the diagram). The sun’s path, the solar ecliptic, makes a complete revolution in one year. At the same time, the moon’s circular path is completed in about one month. Every month the moon will overtake the sun which moves more slowly. This is called new moon or in Sanskrit, amavasya. Usually the moon’s path passes above or below the sun’s path and no eclipse occurs. But, periodically the moon overtakes the sun at the place where their paths intersect. This causes the sun or the moon to be hidden from the earth’s view and is thus called a solar or lunar eclipse. These places of intersection are the north and south lunar nodes, or as they are referred to in Hindu mythology, Rahu and Ketu. Therefore, in the symbolic language of mythology, Rahu and Ketu are said to “swallow up” the Sun and the Moon. The ancient Hindu observers of the sky were aware of the cause of the solar and lunar eclipses and so described the process in the language of metaphor.

Hindu Samskaras

2011-09-03T10:28:00.001-07:00

Hindu Samskaras

A samskara is a rite of passage, and virtually every world culture has such ceremonies. Rites of passage are ceremonies that mark important events in the life of an individual. A Baptism, a wedding, a Bar Mitzvah, a Confirmation, and a funeral are all examples of rites of passage. Such important events generally include pre birth ceremonies, birth ceremonies, life ceremonies, death ceremonies and even after life ceremonies. In Sanskrit the word samskara literally means, “making perfect” or “refining,” and so a samskara is a ceremony of refinement, which is to say, refining or raising an individual beyond his or her mere physical existence and marking a higher spiritual existence. Samskaras bind an individual into his or her social group.

In Hinduism, as with most religious cultures, samskaras are sacred ceremonies performed with the help of a priest and in the presence of family and friends. Traditionally there are twelve samskara, but some later traditions raise this number to sixteen. In practice, however, there are only about eight samskaras that are regularly performed. This number varies from family to family and from region to region. The most common ceremonies are a pre-birth ceremony (Simantoyannayanam), the name giving ceremony (Nama Karana), a first grains ceremony (Anna Prashanna), the first hair cutting (Mundan), starting school (Vidyarambhana), the thread giving ceremony (Upanayana), marriage (Vivaha) and the funeral (Antyesthi). As I briefly describe these ceremonies, be aware that there is a lot regional variation, and how a ceremony may be preformed in one community may vary a lot from how it is performed in another community.

Baby Shower (Simantoyannayanam)

Simantoyannayanam is a ceremony performed either in the fourth, sixth or eighth month of a woman’s pregnancy. It is done for the protection and health of the mother and the unborn child. Today we might compare this ceremony to a baby shower. Literary, it means “parting of the hair.” A priest is invited, mantras are chanted, and a fire ceremony (havan) is performed as the husband parts the hair of his wife and places vermilion in the parting of her hair. Family members and friends come bearing gifts for the mother and the coming new born. After the ceremony a meal is served.

The Name Giving (Nama Karana)

Nama Karana is the name giving ceremony performed after the birth of a child. Traditionally the name is not supposed to be given until the 11th day after the birth, but because Western hospitals demand a name on a birth certificate within hours of a birth, a name has to be given without the actual ceremony. In many cases immediately after a birth a family member will contact an astrologer or priest so that a horoscope can be prepared and a name determined according to the deals of the astrological chart. In this way a name is determined and legally given, but the religious samskara is not performed until much later.

First Solid Food (Anna Prashanna)

The next ceremony is the anna prashanam or the ceremony of “feeding the grains.” This is the child’s first solid food generally performed in sixth month. A child is brought to a temple, or a a priest is invited to the family’s home, and along with mantras and a sacred fire, food (usually a sweet rice preparation) is offered to God through the fire and “made” into prasada. The prasada is then fed to the child. In other words, the child’s first solid food is prasada, spiritual food.

First Hair Cutting (Mundan)

After the first grain’s ceremony, the Mundan or first hair cutting is the next samskara that may be performed. Different families perform this ceremony at different ages, but the ideal time is when the soft spot in the skull of the child vanishes, usually around 14 months. As in all samskaras, family, friends and a priest get together in the home or in a temple. Mantras are recited, a sacred fire is evoked and the priest with the help of the father or maternal uncle cut small locks of hair from four sides of the child’s head. After this ritual cutting, the child is taken to a barber that comes just for this occasion and the child’s hair is completely shaved. There is a belief that the first hair from the time of birth is impure and so shaving it off is a purification, but more importantly, the real point of the samskara is that it is a sacrifice. The parents of the child sacrifice the beauty of their child by shaving their child’s head, and in exchange they ask God for long life and prosperity for their child.

Starting School (Vidyarambhana)

The next samskara is called Vidyarambhana or beginning education. Vidya is knowledge and arambhana is commencing. This is usually performed around the ages of four or five years. The ceremony generally involves some mantras of sanctification and the worship of Sarasvati Devi, the Goddess of learning. Then, either on a chalk board or “scratched out” in a bed of plain rice, the child’s hand is guided in writing his first letters A, B, C... or whatever the local script maybe. Sometimes the name of an important family Deity, such as Rama is the first word written by the child.

Thread Ceremony (Upanayana)

The next samskara is called Upanayana. This is the equivalent of a Christian Confirmation or Jewish Bar Mitzvah. It is a coming of age ceremony and in Hinduism it is usually performed for adolescence boys. Today the ceremony is generally performed only within the traditional brahmin families. This is unfortunate because it is an important ceremony and virtually all boys could benefit from such a ritual. Traditionally the ceremony was performed by the three upper varnas and not just brahmins. The ceremony is sometimes called a “thread ceremony” because one of its important features is the investiture of a “sacred thread” that is placed over the shoulder of the boy. The thread is used in certain prayer rituals (called sandhya vandana) that are performed on a daily basis after the ceremony. The word upanayana comes from the sanskrit root “ni” which means “to lead” and so the upanayana is the “leading or coming closer,” which means the boy is becoming a man and taking on adult responsibilities and is also coming closer to the spiritual side of life to guru and ultimately to God. After the ceremony the boy is considered a dvija or twice born. He has completed his second birth. One’s physical birth from mother is the first birth. The upanayana is the spiritual or second birth that comes from father or guru. During the Upanayana ceremony the boy has his head shaved, is given a sacred bath, takes vows of study and celibacy and is given the ancient gayatri mantra which includes the investiture of the sacred thread. The mantra is whispered into the hear of the boy while ladies hold a cloth over the father, guru and boy for privacy. For more information see The Sacred Thread Ceremony.

Marriage (Vivaha)

Moving along in a chronological way the next import samskara is marriage. This is called Vivaha. As in virtually all cultures the marriage ceremony involves a bride and groom coming together in the presence of family and friends and then taking an oath of dedication to each other. In Sanskrit the word vivaha comes from the root vah which means to carry. The oath of dedication that the bride and groom take to each other is a contract that “carries” them along for the remainder of their lives. Most Hindu weddings involve an exchange of garlands between the bride and groom (jaya mala), a bestowal of the bride by her father to the groom (kanya dhanam), the lighting of a sacred fire (havan), circumambulation of the fire (parikramanam), and the taking of seven vows (sapta padi). In general southern marriages have the addition of a sacred necklace given to the bride by the groom (mangala sutra), and northern weddings have the addition of a sacred mark of vermilion applied by the groom to the bride in the parting of her hair (sindhura). There are, of course, huge variations between weddings, and many other aspects that we have not mentioned, especially in India where a ceremony can last many hours. In the West the average wedding lasts about an hour. For more detailed information see The Hindu Wedding.

Funeral (Antyesthi)

The final samskara is the antyesthi or the last rites. In the West, Hindu funerals are performed very differently than in India where there is a whole caste of specialized priests that only deal with death. Out of necessity, in the West temple priests perform funeral services in conjunction with the local system for handling the dead. In orthodox culture it is considered impure for temple priests to deal with death.

Upon the death of an individual the family will call a funeral home to prepare the body as well as a priest to perform the last rites. In India a funeral is generally performed before the sun goes down on the day of passing, but in the West the funeral may not be performed for many days while permits are obtained and family members are given time to assemble. During the funeral family members and friends come to a funeral home or chapel. Last rites are never performed in a temple. A priest recites mantras, some final rituals are performed that may include a havan, eulogies are said and family and friends are given the opportunity to offer their last respects with flower petals. Afterwards the body is taken to a crematorium where the body is committed to the fire. From the time of death and for about two weeks the family is in an official state of morning. They are not supposed to come to a temple or perform puja during this period. Every evening at this time prayers may be recited in the home and at the end of this period of mourning a special havan is performed by a priest for the release of the soul. Finally a meal is served to family members and friends and gifts are given to the priest(s). Weeks or months later the ashes may be taken to India to be disposed into a sacred river or, locally if it is possible, ashes may be put into the ocean. The funeral process can be an elaborate affair and one that varies greatly from community to community. For detailed information see Hindu Funeral Rites and Ancestor Worship.

These are the major samskaras that are still practiced today. The ones that have have not been mentioned include the conception ritual (Garbhadhana), a ceremony to create a son (Pum-savana), the birth ceremony (Jata Karman), the first trip out after birth (Nishkramana), returning home after graduation, and even a first saris tying ceremony for girls entering puberty.

The Bobgans examine personality types and tests from a bibilcal, historical, and research basis and answer such questions as: How is astrology connected to the four temperaments and how are both connected to personality types and tests? Can knowing temperament and personality types foster Christian love and maturity? Why are the four temperaments so popular among Christians today? Are there any biblically or scientifically established temperament or personality types? Are personality inventories and tests valid ways of finding out about people?

The four temperaments theory is an ancient system devised for understanding human nature and thereby improving the human condition. The theory divides people according to various personality characteristics that appear to make up their basic temperament. Some people attempt to distinguish between a person’s temperament and his personality by saying that temperament traits are inborn while personality traits are the result of nature and nurture. However, the distinction is not always possible or clear. The four temperament categories are Sanguine, Choleric, Melancholy, and Phlegmatic. Each category or type is defined by a list of descriptive terms.

CAREER ASTROLOGY

2011-07-04T10:55:00.001-07:00

Complexity of professions is assuming a more and more bewildering nature. To indicate exact means of livelihood, though the horoscope depends upon blending of the influences of planets, signs and houses and there too it would be very difficult to predict with exactitude.

We may say a man would be an engineer, but whether a civil, mechanical, electrical, mining or textile engineer, will depend upon the planet that has the greatest influence in livelihood. Another question that poses itself is whether a person would have the same source of livelihood throughout his life.

Many persons start their career in service and later do well in their own business. Further, in finding means of livelihood, can we make a distinction between salary and pension? Many retired servants enter business but most of them either enter private service or live on pension and savings or rent on buildings they own or have built. It is very difficult to analyses all factors carefully and predicts the tendencies governing one’s livelihood. Like any other sciences, astrology too has its own limitations. We have to realize it and it is the duty of those deeply interested in the science to increase its utility to society by earnest research and selfless efforts.

In the matter of astrologically judging and determining different mundane houses are allotted to the different needs of Kalapurusha or the individual. There is one house for wealth, another for patrimony, the other for income, etc. There is one house; Karma viz. the 10th (midheaven) Karma is very broad term. Karma means the sum total of the good and bad deeds at our credit when we are born on this planet. Livelihood or avocation is only one facet of the term karma. Karma is not merely avocation but is a comprehensive term.

The twelve houses indicate different activities in the world. A professional means of earning a livelihood may be determined by the houses and planets which are prominent in a horoscope. If the 1st is strong, the native will earn by his personal efforts. If the 2nd is strong articles of food or speech would play a prominent part. The 3rd determines courage, brothers, heroic valour, communication, writing, short travel, etc. If the 3rd is strong and has connected with the 10th, the person may earn through writings and short travel. He may run a big business, may serve in army. If the 10th lord is connected with the 4th house and indications are strong, the person may get income from house or motor vehicle. The 5th has reference to learning, counsel, speculation, and games of chance. The harmonious dispositions of the 10th and the 5th indicate earnings through above means. The 6th represents sickness or diseases, if the 6th houses is connected to the 10th and the horoscope indicates medical studies the person may be a doctor by profession.

When the 8th and the 10th lords are connected the person may earn through foreign business or from property got through legacy. The 9th indications would be connected with the foreigners’ foreign lands, law, religion etc. The connected between the 9th and the 10th may bring earnings through practice of law or the person may become religious head or may earn through teaching or preaching.

The profession or occupation of a native is generally judged from the planet or planets occupying the 10th house and if there should be none there, from those in the 1st and also from those aspecting the Sun and the Moon.

Brihat Jataka. Adh. X. XL. 4, states the gain of money from livelihood should be ascertained from the strong benefic planets occupying the Ascendant.

Vedic Astrology has been around since ancient times. Its isn’t just blind faith that belivers of astrology have, it is rather a science of stars and their relationships with in the solar system, popularly known as sidereal zodiac. In this astrology we consider even the Sun and Moon as planets and observations are based on geo-centric, considering the earth as the center of the universe. Vedic astrology aim at assessing the up and downs in a persons life and provides remedy to unfavorable times.

The Vedic astrology has 12 zodiac signs, 7 planets and two lunar nodes. Each of the seven planets rules two signs except the sun and moon rule a single sign. The lunar nodes namely Rahu and Ketu are accorded equal importance in a natal chart as any of the planets, except that they don’t rule any sign. Vedic astrology excludes planets Pluto, Neptune and Uranus for the reason that they too far away from the earth. Here is the break down on the signs, also known as Rashi rulership.

Rashi Number Rashi Name Rashi Ruler

Sign Number	Sanskrit Sign Name	Western Sign Name	Sign Ruler
1	Mesh	Aries	Mars
2	Vrishab	Taurus	Venus
3	Mithun	Gemini	Mercury
4	Kark	Cancer	Moon
5	Simha	Leo	Sun
6	Kanya	Vigro	Mercury
7	Tula	Libra	Venus
8	Vrishchik	Scorpio	Mars
9	Dhanus	Sagittarius	Jupiter
10	Makar	Capricorn	Saturn
11	Kumbha	Aquarius	Saturn
12	Meena	Pisces	Jupiter

Tantrasa graha, composed by the renowned Kerala astronomer N laka tha Somayaji (c. 1444 1545 CE) ranks along with ryabhat ya of ryabhata and Siddh nta iromani of Bh skar c rya as one of the major works that significantly influenced further work on astronomy in India. One of the distinguishing features of this text is the introduction of a major revision of the traditional planetary models which includes a unified theory of planetary latitudes and a better formulation of the equation of centre for the interior planets (Mercury and Venus) than was previously available.Several important innovations in mathematical technique are also to be found in Tantrasa graha, especially related to the computation of accurate sine tables, the use of series for evaluating the sine and cosine functions, and a systematic treatment of the problems related to the diurnal motion of the celestial objects. The spherical trigonometry relations presented in the text applied to a variety of problems such as the computation eclipses, elevation of the moon 's cusps and so forth are also exact.In preparing the translation and explanatory notes, the authors have used authentic Sanskrit editions of Tantrasa graha by Suranad Kunjan Pillai and K V Sarma. The text consists of eight chapters mean londitudes, true longitues, gnomonic shadow, lunar eclipse, solar eclipse, vyat p ta, reduction to observation and elevation of the moon 's cusps and 432 verses. All the verses have been translated into English and are supplemented with detailed explanations including all mathematical relations, figures and tables using modern mathematical notation.This edition of Tantrasa graha will appeal to historians of astronomy as well as those who are keen to know about the actual computational procedures employed in Indian astronomy. It is a self-contained text with several appendices included, enabling the reader to comprehend the subject matter without the need for further research.
