Guest guest Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Dear Mrs. Wendy, Thank you. I was thinking that as well. Does this have a source? I am satisfied to go with it, since you are learned and it confirms my own instinct, but if there is a source I would like to know it as well.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Dear Mrs. Wendy, Sun, Moon and Jupiter are Satvik planets and so are the signs owned by them. Venus is Rajasik and so are the signs owned by it. Saturn is Tamasik and so are the signs owned by it. But, such a consistency is not seen for Mercury and Mars. Mercury is a Rajasik planet while the signs owned by it are both Tamasik. Similarly Mars is Tamasik while Aries is said to be Rajasik and Scorpio to be Satvik. I am not able to comprehend this deviation for Mercury and Mars. Please shed some light on this.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 PS: In the next verse about Gemini, there is a word called " ratribali " meaning strong during night time.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Dear Krishna, Did my previous post on this topic make it to the group? I wanted to ask on which basis you say that Scorpio is Sattvic? It appears to me that Parashara describes it's varna as brahmin but it's guna as rajas. My Parashara's Light is crashing when I try to open the sanskrit BPHS. Can you kindly check the Sanskrit for BPHS 4.16? The english is: " denotes brahmins " ...

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Dear Krishna, It seems the translator takes the sanskrit for " sharp " to also mean " passionate " which refers to rajas, rajo-guna. Can you locate that Sanskrit word? I apologize that I can't access the Sanskrit for BPHS right now.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Dear Krishna ji/vic ji, the word teekshanagro could mean Rajas(rajo guna) also.Sanskrit has got many meanings to a word than any other language.Hence it is also called language of gods!!... More over Mars/8H of natural zodiac can not be satwic(logical i believe).............I have my own reservations about it since it could only be Rajasic/tamasic.My personal opinion goes(though doesnt matter) to Tamasic since Aries is Rajasic.............

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Dear Krishna and All, This really is proving quite a dilemma at the moment as my (course) notes definitely tell me that... 1) Mars is Tamas whilst Aries (movable) and Scorpio (fixed) are both Rajas. 2) Mercury is Rajas whilst Gemini (dual) and Virgo (dual) are both Tamas. However there seems to be a strong view out there that... 1) Movable signs have a predominance of Rajas Guna. 2) Fixed signs have a predominance of Tamas Guna. 3) Dual signs have a predominance of Sattwa Guna. However both BPHS and my own (course) notes disagree with this... 1) Parasara declares (for instance) that Leo, a fixed sign, is Sattwic. 2) My (course) notes also tell me that Leo is Sattwic. As much as I'd hate to concede some error in my course notes, I would have no choice if the evidence against was strong enough; But there can be no doubt that Parasara agrees. So at the moment it remains a bit of a dilemma.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Dear Krishna and All, In my experience, the most essential key to really grasping the shastras is *context*. In this particular case we find there is basically one shloka for each rashi. We find that Parashara has a group of qualities, and in each shloka he enumerates the way each rasha behaves in each category. Every shloka describes a guna for example. Therefore if we find one or two which do not, we suspect it is an error in translation. Sanskrit translators really have a difficult task and they very rarely do a passable job. Translations of Vedic shastras are extremely poor, in my opinion. It is very difficult to be fair, because one must have a mastery of three difficult subjects: (1) English, (2) Sanskrit and (3) Jyotish. So, therefore if there are some verses which the English lacks a specific for Guna, but for every other rashi parashara has enumerated the guna - we are quite suspicious of an oversight in translation. Upon closer examination of the shlokas missing the English translations for specifications of Guna, we find words in Sanskrit which pertain to the Gunas. It is extremely prudent and wise for us at this stage to understand that it is a mistake in translation. Thus we find confidently that Taurus is rajasic, Gemini tamasic, and Scorpio rajasic. Mrs. Wendy has brought up the topic that dvisvabhava relates to sattva-guna, chara to rajo-guna and sthira to tamo-guna. I find this thoroughly reasonable and valid personally. However, the two exist side by side, creating distinctions among the signs. Pisces and Sagittarius, for example are thoroughly sattvic signs, because they have the quality of sattva by their own nature, and their " guna " (as it is literally called, no?) also has the quality of sattva, being dvi-svabhavika. Leo and Cancer, on the other hand are not as purely sattvic as Sagittarius and Pisces. Because in the case of Leo, it's being sthira blends it's inherent sattva with sthira's quality of tamas. In the case of Cancer, the inherent sattva blends with chara's rajas. In this way, it all makes lovely sense and has a nice harmony. It is also interesting to differentiate the varnas. For example both the Sun and Mars are Ksatriyas, but the Sun is a sattvic ksatriya, while Mars is a tamasic Ksatriya. That nicely describes the difference in the nature of the Sun and Mars. The Moon is a sattvic vaishya, while mercury is a rajasic vaishya. Jupiter a sattvic brahman while Venus is a rajasic bhrahman. Saturn, Rahu and Ketu are all tamasic, but Saturn is structured and behaves as a shudra, whereas Rahu and Ketu are lawless and behave as mlecchas. It all makes very nice sense, in my opinion. Another thing very interesting to note is that the earth element pertains to vaishyas, the fire element to kshatriyas, the water element to brahmanas, and the air element to shudras.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Dear Krishna, Why would you say that " teeksha-agro " could not refer to rajas? According to the standard English-Sanskrit dictionary (Sir Monier Monier Williams dictionary), teekshna means: " sharp, hot, pungent, fiery, acid, keen, and zealous " - these are all descriptions of rajo-guna, are they not?

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Namaste Vic Ji, You have point here. One can refer to the individual words (in English) in S.V. Apte, English to Sanskrit-Dictionary, 3rd Ed. Pune 1920, gives the Sanskrit equivalent i.e. teekshn sharp, hot, pungent, fiery, fire etc. in the appended url: http://www.sanskrit-lexicon.uni-koeln.de/scans/AEScan/index.php?sfx=pdf With regards, Sivaprakasam ________________________________ Vic DiCara <vicdicara jyotish-vidya Fri, 19 March, 2010 2:42:30 PM Re: Tri-guna of Taurus and Gemini Dear Krishna, Why would you say that " teeksha-agro " could not refer to rajas?

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Namaste Vic Ji, >It is also interesting to differentiate the varnas. For example both the Sun and Mars are Ksatriyas, but the Sun is a sattvic ksatriya, while Mars is a tamasic Ksatriya. That nicely describes the difference in the nature of the Sun and Mars. The Moon is a sattvic vaishya, while mercury is a rajasic vaishya. Jupiter a sattvic brahman while Venus is a rajasic bhrahman. Saturn, Rahu and Ketu are all tamasic, but Saturn is structured and behaves as a shudra, whereas Rahu and Ketu are lawless and behave as mlecchas.> Yes. This point appears to be very reasonable. With regards, Sivaprakasam ________________________________ Vic DiCara <vicdicara jyotish-vidya Fri, 19 March, 2010 2:35:56 PM Re: Re: Tri-guna of Taurus and Gemini Dear Krishna and All, In my experience, the most essential key to really grasping the shastras is *context*. In this particular case we find there is basically one shloka for each rashi. We find that Parashara has a group of qualities, and in each shloka he enumerates the way each rasha behaves in each category. Every shloka describes a guna for example. Therefore if we find one or two which do not, we suspect it is an error in translation. Sanskrit translators really have a difficult task and they very rarely do a passable job. Translations of Vedic shastras are extremely poor, in my opinion. It is very difficult to be fair, because one must have a mastery of three difficult subjects: (1) English, (2) Sanskrit and (3) Jyotish. So, therefore if there are some verses which the English lacks a specific for Guna, but for every other rashi parashara has enumerated the guna - we are quite suspicious of an oversight in translation. Upon closer examination of the shlokas missing the English translations for specifications of Guna, we find words in Sanskrit which pertain to the Gunas. It is extremely prudent and wise for us at this stage to understand that it is a mistake in translation. Thus we find confidently that Taurus is rajasic, Gemini tamasic, and Scorpio rajasic. Mrs. Wendy has brought up the topic that dvisvabhava relates to sattva-guna, chara to rajo-guna and sthira to tamo-guna. I find this thoroughly reasonable and valid personally. However, the two exist side by side, creating distinctions among the signs. Pisces and Sagittarius, for example are thoroughly sattvic signs, because they have the quality of sattva by their own nature, and their " guna " (as it is literally called, no?) also has the quality of sattva, being dvi-svabhavika. Leo and Cancer, on the other hand are not as purely sattvic as Sagittarius and Pisces. Because in the case of Leo, it's being sthira blends it's inherent sattva with sthira's quality of tamas. In the case of Cancer, the inherent sattva blends with chara's rajas. In this way, it all makes lovely sense and has a nice harmony. It is also interesting to differentiate the varnas. For example both the Sun and Mars are Ksatriyas, but the Sun is a sattvic ksatriya, while Mars is a tamasic Ksatriya. That nicely describes the difference in the nature of the Sun and Mars. The Moon is a sattvic vaishya, while mercury is a rajasic vaishya. Jupiter a sattvic brahman while Venus is a rajasic bhrahman. Saturn, Rahu and Ketu are all tamasic, but Saturn is structured and behaves as a shudra, whereas Rahu and Ketu are lawless and behave as mlecchas. It all makes very nice sense, in my opinion. Another thing very interesting to note is that the earth element pertains to vaishyas, the fire element to kshatriyas, the water element to brahmanas, and the air element to shudras.
