"Combustion- Sanjay 4/20/03

>Dear Amit,

>The Sun is the atma of the universe and its primary activity is

defined by

>its adhi devata Agni (fire). Agni has been considered in the sastra

as the

>deity who

(1) takes our prayers to the gods with ‘svaha’ and to the manes

(pitris) with ‘svadha’,

(2) illumines the mind with spiritual and transcendental knowledge as

it rules the third eye

(jagat caksyu),

(3)creates, maintains and dissolves the entire manifested creation

(surya â€"

>trimurti svarupa), and

(4) purifies the individual beings by cleaning them

>with spiritual heat, etc.

This cleansing of individual beings or the burning of sin is the

phenomena of combustion.

 

>It is evident that the combustion of different planets has different

connotation. Some illustrations:

Jupiter’s combustion can be understood from Varahamihira (Brihat

Samhita)explains that just as gold is purified by coming through

fire, so also Brihaspati (Jupiter) is purified and shines (with

spiritual lustre on the thirteenth day) after its conjunction

(combustion) with the Sun. This day

marks the beginning of the jovian years when this combustion occurs

in Krittika (or Mrigasira) naksatra or this day marks the beginning

of the jovian cycle of sixty years when this combustion happens in

Dhanista nakshatra. These occasion are celebrated as the Kumbha and

Maha-Kumbha

mela respectively every twelve years. We may conclude that the

combustion of Jupiter produces spiritual shine and this combination

of the Sun & Jupiter is what represents a temple or pilgrimage and

the udder of the cow, because by visiting the temple, the individual

burns his sins just like the

drinking of the pure milk of a happy cow removes all diseases of the

body. Technically, the combustion of Jupiter is for 12 degrees or 12

years.

The combustion of the Moon can be understood from the Purana. The

Moon is the greatest blessing on a girl (Venus) as she becomes a

mother (Moon). The Moon does not differentiate between married or

unmarried nor does it consider the leagl sanctity of the union when

blessing a couple (especially woman) to become a mother. This is a

fact as pregnancy can happen to any

lady irrespective of whether she is married or not or whether she is

uniting with a man who is her legitimate spouse. These are the two

possible flaws of (1) Krishna chaturdasi dosa (sexual union without

marriage) and (2) Amavasya dosa (sexual union with one who is not

legitimate spouse), that cause terrible sin. This brings the curse of

Ganesa & Brihaspati, as on Candra the Moon god. Thereafter, the Moon

spends a day (sukla pratipada) in repentance and prayer. Thus, the

effective combustion of the Moon begins two days (24 degrees or two

tithi) before its conjunction with the Sun and ends ofter one day (12

degrees or one tithi).

Similarly, the combustion of Venus is to be understood as the anger

of Siva (pratyadhi devatä of the Sun) on Kama devatä thereby

reducing him to ashes or the swallowing of Sukra where the latter had

to do penance for twenty years (20 years = 20 degrees, post

conjunction or

recovery period).

An important noteworthy point is that the combustion before

conjuction is considered very sinful meriting ‘dosa criteria’ while

that after conjunction indicates a period when one is in spiritual

seclusion. In this manner, the combustion of other planets can be

understood.

Coming to the question, the Sun is all known as ‘dvadasatmane’ and

posesses twelve forms representing the spiritual soul in the twelve

signs. The names of the Sun god in the twelve signs are given below,

and a detailed study of these forms of the Sun shall explain the

meaning implied by the combustion in a chart when the Sun is in

different signs.

usually mean that Nipuna Yoga (Merc+Sun) which could give the

intelligence to the native is spoiled. Planet combusted means that

You feeling burning, it is called Koopavastha which means angry. But

the concept of combustion is hard to recognize because of hard

calculation. It is taken lattide and longitude of the Sun etc. If my

rememberance is good, remedy for combustion is propiating Sun, but

You must know that combustion of Mercury is happening often in the

chart. If we trust the JH software Your mars is also combust which

can afflict Your career but the exaltation helps a lot, again it can

give some hidden BIG enemies.

> I think the Combustion of the AK in Rasi means that there is a

problem in realising Your soul's desires in life. Especially if the

AK is in Dushtana. AK has 2/12 relation with the Sun, the Lagnesh is

1/7 relation with Sun, it means that You are not born spiritually but

You can act like that.

>

> 2. If Venus is fallen in Navamsa it is bad for the Rasi, and Neecha

Bhanga in Navamsa would help only in area of Navamsa (relationships)'

> 3. I think debilitated BK in D-9, can mean bad luck with Guru, or

Your Guru has bad luck. But other factors must be checked for this.

Your relation between Guru and 9L is 6/8 so there can be some problem

in approach.

> 4. Your A9 is with Sun and aspected by exalted Jupiter - it gives

excellent faith in spirituallity.

> 5. Your Sun in Navamsa is debilitated hence it can give some

problems regarding luck in relationships and fame/name.

> 6. You have Siva Yoga in Your lagna which is spiritual

combinations, it means that Ganesha has His head again, Srila

Prabhupada also has this Yoga with Lagnesh hence build many temples.

> 7. Ra/Ke in kendra's to AL and L with Siva Yoga I believe can give

spirituality too.

> Thank you for answering my Atmakaraka question on the

Vedic Astrology forum. If you don't mind can you take a look at my

birth chart. My Atmakaraka is also combusted! Venus is fallen in the

Navamsa but is it getting Neecha Bhanga? It is representing my Guru

as being BhratariKaraka. Does that mean I will have problems with

Gurus? Sun is also Neecha in Navamsa also. Can you explain this to me

in regards to Jaimini Astrology? Basically I just don't understand my

chart in regards to spirituality! Please let me know what you think.

Thanks in advance. Take Care.
