You are around 39 or 24 I think, based on what you said, but you didn't give enough for me to draw the Rashi. Hi, Das, I'm thirty five -- October 7, 1964 at 1:17 PM, Chicago, Illinois, your program knows already this was during daylight savings time. Then also, ask with the details what causes something- tell the thing you mean exactly, like low energy, since when, and other traits, and any time periods related to them, and try to be telling the truth, and I'll show you what gives that in your Vedic chart. No lieing, no testing, please. ? Why would I lie? Sometimes the things you say really startle me. Specifically, I have had problems with energy my whole life. I am a heavy sleeper, and even as a child I can remember days when there was just no juice running through my body, like it was made of something heavier than normal or I was attracting more gravity or something. I have maybe four good hours in a day when I can think, I don't travel well, and some days I wake up and have really never awakened -- for example being awake at seven thirty in the morning and staying awake all day seems almost impossible sometimes. Regarding my personality, I am very very shy and really being cloistered and away from other people is my most comfortable milieu. I can gather up enough emotional energy to go out to work only for a year at the most, and then I have to get away from everything, regroup and especially get away from other people, who freak me out mightily, like my fear of others has been building up residually and turns into a bigtime rash of terror. I could go on about this but it's as if I am understanding a subtext to what is going on that I can't express and it knocks me out of the world every time. Sometimes I'll get the feeling that when people are talking to me they are addressing some other person they see that I don't. Sometimes I get the feeling that some behavior is expected of me and I don't know what it is, and that freaks me out. I continue conversations with people I haven't talked to in years, or who are actually dead by now, and fall into daydreams that can last for hours and hours. I write in my head, I talk in my head. It's like I really am somewhere else, and the only way I can hide this fact from the rest of the world is to stay out of it. << Your sun and moon, being 2/12 to each other, form somewhat of a split personality whereby the desire for rise, power, success, will force you to ignore your mind which is always thinking too much, running here and there, hoping that something will come easily. No, it won't. Your feel this in your body, and you know you have to ignore it, but it's hard. We all know how hard it is to NOT listen to the mind. For you, it's a substantial issue in your life. >> Maybe, but I have no desire for power of any kind, unless you mean the power one would have to free one's self from fear, or bitterness. My mind does run nonstop, sometimes I wake up thinking, hard, and it takes me a few hours of shaking off my night time thoughts, which have been going all night trying to resolve whatever it was I was trying to reason out. Or argue out. My strongest desire is to know what comes after death, and most of my thoughts in any moment are related to this in some way. My strongest fear is the broken, terrified knowledge that I will not be able to protect my son from everything that comes into his life, and my terror of losing him somehow is large enough to fill fifteen extra people. So other things, like money or a big career, really mean nothing to me, unless I compare myself to others and realize I am totally without any kind of...label or tag or title that would help me relate to the world, but to me this is..adapting a persona, a lens, and I can't keep up it up for very long. At least I have never been able to. It is tiring and disorienting. Here's a date: On August 14th, 1991, I got on an airplane and went to join my husband in germany, where he was stationed. When I woke up the next day, I was absolutely convinced that the plane had crashed into the ocean and that I died. I was so sure of this that I made my husband go find an American newspaper so I could assure myself it hadn't happened. This was like some kind of break in my mind, and I've been like this ever since, more or less. Love, Vox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 26, 2000 Report Share Posted June 26, 2000 Dear Vox I read your letter. That was all Ketu speaking. Ketu by the Lagna causes one to be ultra sensitive and needy in a certain way- they love to dream and imagine themselves in various identities, and then they pull back due to reality. Getting close to other people they feed off the information the other persons personality and life provide, and then they dream on that, then they pull back to their own reality. This is very tiring, hence Ketu causes people ultimately to recluse to avoid the stimulation of contact. Real spiritual life requires that we ignore other people, so this is a fault you can agressively undermine with your intelligence and will. So, in other words, give up feeding off thoughts and impulses from other people. Do your duty only, and ignore other people. Don't look at them- just do your business. Principal should guide you. There is nothing to be received. These are thoughts that will work to combat the "Ketu Daydream SpaceOut Syndrome". Moon in an air sign in the 11th...I have this too. Lots of lofty and swift moving desires and dreams. That too is no help in accomplishing things for real. You must pull the mind down to Earth and stop it from ruling you. You said you have a hard time working, getting out, etc. I mentioned "power" and you rejected the notion. I was speaking of these things...the ability to get out of the complex of pain, and be "successful" as an entity in any way, in all ways, in YOUR power. You have a positive and good tenth house in some ways. You can appear to be pure and youthful to others. Virgo has some good qualities that others can appreciate. It has some things to offer. So you can have a career and a place, but Virgo is somewhat weak and dependent by nature. It's rather pure and innocent. So you can't be weakened on top of that. It's no good if Virgoan people are weak in other ways, then they appear too much like leaches and too weak. Gotta get strong otherwise. Highly desireful with Moon in the 11th, but that lord goes to the 9th, which means the desires are based on religion ultimately, which is good, and that 9th lord is the Sun, and goes to Virgo in 10th. This is all good and fine enough. So you want to go to good places, to serve pure things. First lord and moon are in Venus ruled signs and Venus is in Leo. So you are devoted to enjoying at any price, and agressively, and independently. So for an answer to your woes, try looking to your indulgences. Only through austerity and courage can we cure our problems. I too have served Venus too much. I comiserate with you. First lord goes to sixth. Early life and mother houses indicated to be "your own enemy". Not so happy there. Fifth lord goes to 8th and is in a difficult sign for it. This indicates that your own strange mental patterns are a difficulty for the first child, children in general, but it is not that they are weak, they are holding back thinking of your interests. This will be the karma. Your navigating abilities are suffering due to emotions, which are against the structure of your life. Being born under Sagittarius is not a good lagna for being emotional, hence Capricorn goes to 8th and so on. You have a good chart in many ways. I like the emphasis on the risen half, specifically the 9th through 11th. These are good placements overall, for faith, being involved in pure things, thinking hard, striving forward. You definitely have identity issues. Either node in 1st or with Moon will do this. Then if first and fifth lords go to Dusthanas, we know for sure the person has alot of contempt for their own natural body, upbringing, their family, their position in society. They want badly to change, to get away, to get to a new life. Then the structures in the houses of faith-career-dreams, 9th through 11th, emphasize you want to believe, achieve, move on, etc. The thing is this: You are highly driven and desireful, and you want to pursue purity, goodness, connection to powerful divine female warrior goddesses who are pure and good, and so on, these dreams are there. Well and good. Those are good aspirations. But a Venusian devotee, in other words, a lush, cannot achieve anything, so Ketu comes to give plenty of dreams to fill in the gaps in reality. You will gradually become strict and austere, as promised by Saturn in the 3rd. You're graduating from this whole process I think. I think that you've actually been realizing the errors of your ways over time. I think you know that it's not lack of energy, so much as lack of desire to work hard. Real problems need real solutions. Life is for putting us up to tests and freaking us out, til we get it, and we desire to change. The fix is not always found in this life, but it will be found. Connections between the 8th and 10th or 11th is never good. Your energy is debilitated by your reproductive area, and desires connected to that and mysticism type thoughts. Have to curb your mind overall. Less emotion and dreaming will help increase the energy. You soon arrive at what could be one of your best dashas in life, as Mercury is well placed. Good for learning, having contact with foreignors in learning, might travel far. Overall, your chart is good for fighting spiritual growth battles inside yourself and is not very good for being a "normal American" in the television sense - this is a compliment. But there are errors of desire in your chandra chart. First lord Venus goes to 11th in Leo. This is a Yoga for agressive taking in life. 10th lord in 1st and 7th lord debilitated in 10th, this is a yoga for being selfish and causing pain to others thereby- like a serious show off. Rationale: 1st lord in 11th in Leo- the person is devoted to pursuing their dreams in an agressive independent way. Rationale 2: 7th lord is debilitated in 10th- other people are disturbed when this person "rises" or is "noticed" or is "standing out". How do they stand out? 10th lord goes to 1. They themselves try to stand out, as their body, found often with models, woman who dress up alot, especially with Libra, the marketplace sign, ruling the first. (this is all speaking of the chandra chart). These addictions of selfishness have all these bad effects of self indulgent woe is me bs. Spending one's life pursuing Venusian satisfaction is a wipe out, a drain, it can kill you, like most rock stars etc. Do not feel I am heavy on you. This is normal speaking for me with my friends. I actually like your chart personally. I can relate to it. But spiritual reality is not here to stroke your ego, otherwise God would be our servant. We are His/Her servants. We are the ones with the growing to do, and the present errors. I'm NOT on your case. I have similar personlity flaws to you actually. It's not about me being good and you're bad. It's just about being people, and these are the real issues. I believe in truth even when it hurts. I never said you had to change today, nor that I or anyone will abandon you, or any such thing. But lets face issues, recognize them, start to work on them, and move on slowly. That's the point for all of us.

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2000 Report Share Posted June 26, 2000 "for being emotional, hence Capricorn goes to 8th and so on" I meant Cancer...is in the 8th, not Cap.
