Guest guest Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 another sensible post fr you Manojji, indeed 'jumping off the cliff' is freedom from all the 'shackles of gold' we have imposed upon ourselves. warm rgds Su , Manoj Chandran <chandran_manoj wrote: > > Dear Vinita Ji, > > //Saturn could cut you from social networking too which is where we sometimes derive our moments of joy from// > > That is the role of Shani, to internalize our view of the world. As you pefectly stated it, we can only derive " moments " of joy from outside and external activity, whereas the Real fountain of Joy lies inside. Some times Shani strips us completely of all external comforts, we are driven to the edge of the cliff and are forced to jump ..... however we might be surprised that now we can FLY !!! > > Without Shani's help, we would have never jumped and never learnt to fly. > > Regards, > -Manoj > > > > ________________________________ > vinita kumar <shankar_mamta > > Wednesday, August 19, 2009 10:06:56 AM > Re: Saturn in 4th House - Rahu in 8th > > > Dear Bhaskar ji, and other friends, > > For some time now i have been reading various postings on Saturn in 4th and Rahu in eighth with great interest.

Guest guest Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Dear Vinitakumarji, Thank you for your observations from your own chart. A similar case of a small child is currently work-in - progress. I wanted to ask : What do you attribute the observations to - is it due to exalation and placement of saturnor just placement.
