Vedic astrology reveals the spiritual significance of every situation

through which the individual passes in his life's journey. In

understanding the deeper significance of every event, one understands

the Divine Plan for himself much more clearly and thereby cooperates

with Nature (in this case Nature represents the Divine Mother, Aditi,

who very carefully and affectionately takes care of each of her

child)..

 

The question of the free flow of Divine Energy which could lead the

individual to his ultimate goal is …… mentioned in Brihad Parashara

Hora Shastra.

 

The question of fulfilling one's goal requires that there is no

impediment in the free flow of the Divine Energy, while the

individual is involved in his everyday life. It implies that all the

Energy Centres, the Chakras as these are mentioned in the yogic

litterature, function in their natural manner. It will enable the

Divine Energy entering the body of the individual through his

Muladhara Chakra to move unimpeded towards his Crown Chakra and all

the intervening chakras will help the Divine Energy in proper manner

till it reaches the Crown Chakra. When this happens, the Moon will

be able to reflect without any distortion the specific message (Ray

Spark) coming from the Sun (Crown Chakra) and transmit the same to

Vishudi Chakra (Mercury) so that the intelligence in the individual

is able to grasp the Divine intonations and make his sociaility

(Venus) harmonious withe the world around him (Mars Jupiter and

Saturn).

 

The negative yogas of Moon have the main purpose of disentangling the

ego from material attachments. The periodic ups and downs in life

which characterise Sakata Yoga make a deep imprint on the

consciousness of the individual. He gets the first hand experience of

the transitoriness of everything matrial and manifest in the

universe. With this realisation, the attachment with the personality

and its changing sensations and pleasures are loosened. This

is the period when the personality is tested in various ways. The

trials of the neophytes come at this stage. Their past karmas are

arranged in such a manner that the loss and various vicissitudes

appear without any apparent cause and the neophytes are made to wail.

It is not a stage of renunciation, sanyasa, but it is the beginning

of the lessons of disillusionnment. That is the main objective of

Sakata Yoga as well as of Kala Sarpa Yoga. These Yogas

are not present in oridnary horoscopes. They indicate that the ego

has invoked higher powers for the bestowal of illumination and self-

knowledge and these yogas test him of his readiness for this gift of

self-awareness.

 

With this invocation, while the ego is gradually gaining increasing

degree of strength to bear his cross, leading to the final

illumination, the past karmas of benefic nature are arranged in such

a way that fruitful opportunities come in the life of the

individuals. They evolve the individual in such a way that his

personality is ultimately differentiated and he is able to express

his destined ray more radiantly. He proceeds more confidently on his

final journey towards emancipation.
