Guest guest Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 Pujay shri Ravindramani, i have a very simple ? - if Rahu is in the 8th house - -what can be the journey of soul - is it possible to guide, please with regards pdk ravindramani <ravindramani wrote: Sir, Astrologically speaking death is very meaningful. Kindly remember that the lagna is the 5th from 9th (The present birth). What does it mean? It means that the life of the individual is the result (progeny – offspring) of his own punya his past karmas. The lagna decides the quantum of prana (inhalation and exhalation) one has to use/consume. (longevity). Hence the question of death is connected with the 7th house very intimately. Parashara instructed us to consider this house for marital happiness. You would kindly appreciate the fact that the Hindu philosophy considers life is emerging form two polarities, Purusha and Prakriti, the positive and the negative forces of manifestation. (The man and the woman) When I consider 1st house, the Purusha, the element of creation, by default, 7th house stands for the element known as Prakriti. Prakriti is the innate, built-in vital energy; Purusha is the energy on the move, the expression of the Spirit in matter. In the marital phenomenon, this cosmic principle comes into play. Man expresses himself through his wife. Lord Shiva for manifesting His creative potentialities requires Parvati, the Universal Mother. At the same time the quantum of prana granted to the individual, at the time of his birth, as per the 7th house activities get dissipated. When all the energy with which he was born has exhausted its creative functions, the person's physical life ends. He moves on to the next realm of manifestation, the higher planes of creation. Now, the second half of his chart needs the attention of the astrologer to understand what is store in for him? It is the domain of the 8th house that the region where the soul proceeds after death, the plane of non-physical existence. Obviously, you can view this house as first house for considering the soul's journey in the astral world i.e. the plants in 8th house or the planets aspect indicate the nature of death. Hope this would help you to some extent. This is my limited understanding of the subject. Regards, C.S. Ravindramani Not happy with your email address?
