Guest guest Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 Hi, This discussion has gone on for so long that even i feel like pitching in!! And as a moon-lover, atmakaraka is moon, 5th house is cancer with moon, i strongly feel baby pink is the colour of the moon...pink for a long time has been the colour for baby girls, like pastel blue is for boys. Pink is feminine, it's a woman's colour, a mother's colour...when i think of my mother or the feelings she evokes in me, i see pink...again when i feel blissul and loved i see pink. pink has always symbolized innocent love...why else is rose quartz prescribed for easing out emotional disturbances, or for attaining innocent love? ....again rose quartz is for the moon, if you can't don't want to use pearls, use a rose quartz is what i've often been told...and i strongly disagree that pink symbolizes lust...red yes, a really garish, loud pink perhaps, but not pink, the pink found in blushes and pearls:) Venus i think is either white, or green, that i am trying to figure out! Of all planets, i believe a very strong benefic Venus is the one that can give complete purity in love! just as a malefic Venus can give lust! Mercury is green so i guess venus should be pure white...mars is red without doubt, i think sun is orange, the reddish-orange of the rising or setting sun! Saturn is blue and black, two colours, i steer clear from! Jupiter is that cheerful yellow...for some strange reason i feel ketu is brown ( i think of ketu as being a jupiter, saturn conjuntion) and rahu (as a mars and saturn conjuntion) is maroon, but not too sure! One of my favourite colours, other than that blissful baby pink is brown, all shades of beige and brown! could be because ketu in the 3rd house taurus (earthly sign), with exalted but malefic venus dasa running, i don't know! or perhaps it's the 3rd house things that are at work, writing and stuff.. Another thing i've noticed is that my favourite colours keep changing...earlier i used to like red, i went through a maroon time, when my wardrobe had mostly shades of maroon:) Now it is mostly browns, but an affection for pink has been a constant!!!!!!!!!1 i don't know if it helps, but that's my two-bit!!!!!!!!! , "indervohra2001" <indervohra2001> wrote: Dear friends, The reason I was thinking about pink for Venus and Moon is as follow : Venus is Karaka for expenditure and costly items. It also stands for lust and pink moods. As we know pink dresses and other articles are all costy. They give feeling of love and lust. So I thought it to be associated with Venus. Moon gets easily influenced by anything. So with Venus, it may also become pinkish. I think pink pearls are costly jewel. Pink pearl can easily be associated with Venus and Moon combined.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 A very interesting post. I've heard Ketu is brown too. What you say about pink soothing the emotions is very valid. Just to throw another idea into the mix, pink is one of the colours for the heat chakra, which in the west is ruled by Leo, which in turn is ruled by the sun. Interesting! It goes to show that correspondences can be subjective.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 hi, beg to differ, but pink is for the heart chakra, because the heart chakra is for love and emotions...again that leads to the moon:) most reiki specialists use rose quartz for healing the heart charka...in fact even feng shui recommends placing rose quartz in the bedroom for finding a romantic partner..frankly i dont see how the pink can be for the sun, unless the pink is really red! , Flick <rubysun@n...> wrote: > A very interesting post.

But seriously, I'm not disagreeing with you, I'm keeping an open mind. I find that if you adopt a set of symbols and believe in it, it will work for you. Before studying jyotish, I would have given pink to Venus (though not the Moon). I would also, incidentally, have given red to Mars, not the sun.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 Hi, pink is diluted red, but red with white...more white than red...with perhaps white lending purity or santicity to the aggresive red, red is also desire and lust! so what u get is pink, i guess....the baby pink..actually the pink i wrote about earlier is baby pink:) It's strange for me coming from a long > background in western astrology and magical techniques, then finding that in > Vedic astrology some things are the same and some are very different. i know what you mean...half the time, i can;t figure out if emerald is for mercury or for Venus...because for a taurean according to the sun sign system...emerald is the recommended stone! but we know it's different in vedic astrology! i think the trick is to follow one system! same with religion too...i think it was swami vivekananada who said that follow one religion but practice it to perfection, even while being open to the others...mixing issues complicate things and lead us nowhere:) Before studying jyotish, I would have > given pink to Venus (though not the Moon).

It's strange for me coming from a long... ....i would still give red to mars and sunrise orange to the sun...a benefic sun...sunrise orange would be more saffron and that somehow seems more sun than the aggressive martian red...sun also seems more concerned with the affairs of the soul than of the heart! ....but don't u think a malefic sun would be more red than orange? just wondering...how fickle these colours are! yotish_remedies, Flick <rubysun@n...> wrote: > On 15/4/04 12:26 pm, "parvatishankar" <parvatishankar> wrote: > > > unless the pink is really red! > > Well, it's diluted red isn't it.

At the moment I find it hard to enjoy western astrology , because Vedic gives me more precision - but I know that I can still read someone intuitively just by glancing at a western chart, while I'm still not able to be so intuitive with an Indian chart. Well, until Geovision releases the Mac version of their software, I have to rely on western astrology as I don't have Vedic software since switching from PC to Mac. I think both systems have much to give. I've studied one for 30 years, now I'm learning the other. I think jyotish will be my main form of astrology eventually, but I don't intend to shut the door on western astrology as it has some worthwhile techniques , such as the use of the outer planets, which I feel can be valuable. > > ...i would still give red to mars and sunrise orange to the sun...a > benefic sun...sunrise orange would be more saffron and that somehow > seems more sun than the aggressive martian red...sun also seems more > concerned with the affairs of the soul than of the heart! I didn't mean heart as in romance etc but more in the sense of the centre (the heart chakra unites upper and lower chakras), just as the sun is the centre of ...well...the solar system, that which drives us - so yes, soul, but soul with love, the universal constant...again not romantic love but unconditional love, compassion etc. > > ...but don't u think a malefic sun would be more red than orange? > just wondering...how fickle these colours are! I think your reasoning for the sun's colours is very apt. LOL I'm sitting her looking out of my window at the grey English sky and wondering howe anyone could think of the sun as malefic ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 Without any doubt it is Ash, may be there are other colours too. Well, some scriptures link BLUE with rahu, but to my mind royal blue should link to venus I guess, and other blues like aqua, navy blue etc. all are saturn. Rahu is ash that I see clearly from my experiences, and also later I knew that I am correct because rahu is smoke and fumes...
