So, we've finished all 12 Rashis (Zodiac Signs). I will keep revealing more info on them once while learning other topics.

For now, your homework is to match exact text of my every tweet with what you've written in notebook. Even if you've exactly copied, still match. Continued.

Also memorize the number associated to each Rashi. Example, when you see 5, Leo should automatically strike in your mind, Libra when you see 7, and Aries when you see 1 & so on. I have mentioned these numbers in tweets. You can go through them. Remember their symbols too.

Also make a Table like this "in your copy" (Do not make it in mobile or computer) and fill the table starting from 1.

Also remember the word FEAW for memorizing Tattva, you will observe this pattern when you fill in table.

Also serial number follows Movable, Fixed, Dual pattern

You can upload table made by you here. If not me due to lack of time, then some other person will tell if your table is correct or not.

Revise & Memorise all the things in this thread. Upcoming topics require much more strenuous efforts.

RT tweets once you memorize, not before.

I am ending this thread here for now. I request you all to not stop and memorize the sequence of the Rashis mentioned by me daily twice a day.

You will need the sequence when we understand Grahas in a chart. I am moving to another thread, link to which can be found below.

You can continue learning further by tapping at the quoted tweet. The topic after this is about 12 Bhaavas.
