Nakshatras & Mars Question

[Guest guest]

Namaste,

 

I am a student of astrology who has just joined this list. I am undergoing

David Frawley's correspondance course with the American Institute of Vedic

Astrology.

 

I am particularly fascinated with the system of 27 Nakshatras, and was

wondering if anyone could direct me to resources of further research, either

online or printed. I would also be interested in a discussion of the

Nakshatras on this listserve. I found one interesting webpage that

attempted to explain the order of planetary rulerships for the lunar

mansions (and the doshas).

Here is the address: <http://www.hssworld.org/hindutva/hindu_calendar/>.

I am not endorsing this site, but I thought it was interesting because I did

not think anyone knew why the planets ruled the Nakshatras and planetary

periods in that order.

 

Looking at my own chart, I have come across a quandary regarding Mars. I am

a Gemini lagna with a debilitated Mars in the 2nd. All my life I have felt

this debilitation, and now I learn that for this lagna, Mars has a negative

effect. Should I feel blessed that as a Gemini my Mars is weakened? Should

I work to increase or decrease Mars influence?

 

Looking forward to advancing my understanding of Jyotish and myself through

this listserve.

 

Blessings, David

Dear david,

Namaskar,

Read that URL with interest. Even Parasara and His predecessors believed and

taught about a seven day week. This logic about nine day week is too far

fetched and to say this in the name of Hindutwa is too much. Hindu's were far

more intelligent than that scribe.

Look at pages 43 - 59 of the first part of Frawley's course. He

describes the planetary energies by Ascendant. For Gemini, a fallen

Mars is indeed difficult. You'll note when Mars is active, it causes

you and your mother both some harm.

 

A fallen planet is no blessing, but rather a karmic challenge. You

should work to overcome its effects. I wouldn't prescribe remedies

without you being a client, but I would encourage you to "use up"

Mars energy daily, to deflect it from bringing harms. Mars loves

agriculture, nature, pets, hatha Yoga, sex, exercise of all kinds and

sports. Do these things daily and your life will be much easier.

 

Right now, use care, for Mars is nearing conjunction with Ketu in

Sag. Accidents could occur, and you may have personal and business

relationship challenges. Events for this transit happen very fast.

The most sensitive time is 9/10 - 9/14.

 

 

 

Regarding more info on the Nakshatras, Hart Defouw does a nice job

in "Light On Life", and Dennis Harness in "Nakshatras." I think that

Komilla Sutton also has a Nakshatra text out, and she is very easy to

follow. If your Mars in in Ashlesha, it is worse than in Pushya.
