Guest guest Posted November 4, 2001 Report Share Posted November 4, 2001 Here is my compulsory exercise on Sri Aurobindo. Sri Aurobindo: Dharma karma yoga in lagna. This yoga is unafflicted by the aspect of any other planet especially the rulers of the 8th and the 11. Being in lagna it shows an exceptional person. It shows skill in action and in a yogi it shows the attainment of realization. “I transformed my nature from what it was to what it was not. I did it by a special manner, not by a miracle and I did it to show what could be done and how it could be done.” Ruler of lagna Moon is conjoined with Saturn alone. It is said that if the ruler of the ascendant is aspected by Saturn alone it is a Pravrajya Yoga. This combination also shows dispassion and detachment. There is a dhana yoga in the 2nd house caused by the conjunction of Venus and the Sun. Aurobindo was born in a wealthy family and had been selected for the “heaven-born”ICS. More importantly Sri Aurobindo has a Saraswati yoga. Jupiter exalted in the 1st and Venus and Mercury in the 2nd house. His writings bear testimony to this yoga. “he silenced his mind and sat at the typewriter, and from above, from the higher planes, all that had to be written came down, all ready, and he had only to move his fingers on the typewriter and it was transcribed.” This is what you would expect with Ketu in the 5th (intuition) house aspected by exalted Jupiter ruler of the 9th (Supermind) conjoined with yogakaraka Mars (ruler of the 5th and the 10th) and the Saraswati yoga. The 6th house also indicates Pratyhara and Jupiter is the ruler of the 6th house. In an esoteric sense the 6th house represents siddhis and struggles on the spiritual path. Coming to the navamsa Aquarius rises. Sun, Moon and Rahu/Ketu are exalted. Jupiter exalted in rasi is debilitated in navamsa. Venus ruler of the 9th is in the 5th house. Lagna lord Saturn is conjoined with Ketu and Mercury (ruler of the 5th) and showing cognitive abilities and aspected by the aspected Moon the ruler of the mind, who in addition is placed in the 5th house. Mercury is atmakaraka and karakamsa is Scorpio with Saturn and Ketu. Saturn in karakamsa is supposed to give world fame, which is true here. Mercury represents Meemamsa. Mercury also represents Krishna. In rasi mokshkaraka Ketu is placed in Scorpio. 12th from atmakaraka is Libra aspected by exalted Sun the natural atmakaraka. Aurobindo’s epic Savitri represents the Sun. If Jaimini aspects are used it is aspected by exalted Moon and Rahu and Mars. Moon and Rahu to my mind represent the Mother. Aurobindo’s philosophy as expressed in his Essays on the Gita is represented by the Dharma Karma yoga in the ascendant. His prodigious and inspired literary output is shown by the Saraswati yoga. Saturn is amatyakaraka, exalted Sun is placed in the 6th from Saturn. Sun to me is the supramental force. Aurobindo started yoga in 1904 during the major rule of the Moon who is involved in a Sanyasa Yoga with Saturn and placed in the house of pratyahara and struggle. “My whole life has been a struggle with hard realities, from hardships, starvation in England and constant and fierce difficulties to the far greater difficulties continually cropping up here in Pondicherry, external and internal. My life has been a battle from its early years and is still a battle” The exchange of the rulers of the 1st and 6th shows his struggles in spiritual life. “A far heavier burden to bear than you or anybody else in the Ashram or outside, far more difficult conditions, battles to fight, wounds to endure, ways to cleave through impenetrable morass and desert and forest, hostile masses to conquer—“ It was followed by the yogakaraka period of Mars, Rahu (an 11th house Rahu is always good.) and then yogakaraka Jupiter involved in a Hamsa yoga. In the Narayana Rasi dasa of Gemini (12 th house) in 1879 Aurobindo left for England returning after 14 years in the rasi dasa of Pisces. In Vimshottari it was Venus/Mercury. Till nearly the end of the rasi dasa of Sagittarius he was in the Baroda government service. From 1910 onwards he devoted himself to spiritual sadhana. This was in Scorpio rasi dasa. In Libra dasa i.e. in 1914 he began the publication of a philosophical monthly, the Arya in which all his important writings The Life Divine, The Synthesis of Yoga, Essays on the Gita, The Isha Upanishad, appeared serially. He left his body in Dec 5 1950. In Narayana dasa it was Gemini/Gemini from which atmakaraka Mercury is in the 3rd. According to Vimshottari dasa it was Jupiter/Mars/Ketu. For a realized being this is the great liberation. Sanjay Rath wrote: OM SRI GURAVE NAMAH Dear Aphoton, Consider it like this.

For instance, in the last assignment, I would need to read the life of Aurobindo and some of his writings in order to attempt an analysis of his chart. My health is not very good at present. On the other hand, what I find especially valuable are the archives. Now one cannot access the archives if one is not a member. I was looking for comments about digestive ailments today, I found a number of good posts but if I were to this would be unavailable to me. I can see that you wish to have a list for beginners, I have been fascinated by Jyotish for almost 40 years, but I still have much to learn. But learning becomes more a matter of separating the grain from the chaff, the noise from the message. I hope you will reconsider your decision.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2001 Report Share Posted November 4, 2001 Erratum. In navamsa exalted Moon is in the 4th house of inner mind and not the 5th house. In navamsa too the Moon is aspected by Saturn. aphoton aphoton wrote: Here is my compulsory exercise on Sri Aurobindo. Sri Aurobindo: Dharma karma yoga in lagna.
