1-What could be a man’s point-of-opening into the #Vedic Corpus?

For me it is #Ayurveda, #VedicAstrology and #Vastu. (1/16)

#Astrology.

2-Vedic #Astrology that ways is well & truly a #Vedanga…for it virtually has answers to every question one might have

If one has a subtle enough perception! (2/16)

#Astrology.

3-Consider this from the works of #Parashara.

This is used as a tool for #BirthTimeRectification and #PrashnaAstrology by #Jyotishis –

..especially in the #Tamil School of #VedicAstrology. (3/16)

4-One key differentiator of Vedic Astrology is that it anthropomorphizes not just the #Grahas

..but the entire pantheon of Gods and Goddesses.

Through that attributes are ascribed and through those attributes #Predictive assumptions are made.

5-Consider this about the nature of the #Glances or the #Drishtis of various #planets

#Moon and #Jupiter tend to look straight ahead

#Sun #Mars #Ketu look up

#Saturn and #Rahu look down

#Mercury and #Venus look towards the sides

(5/16)

#HacksOfJyotish.

6-Consider this example – someone having #Mercury or #Venus having a particular relationship with the #Ascendant in the #BirthChart – will tend to look sideways

(6/16)

#TheWisdomOfTheVillageJyotishi

7-In someone else’s chart where let’s say #Rahu or #Saturn are aligned to the ascendant – will tend to keep his eyes down (7/16)

8-Astrologers use these kinds of subtle observations to evaluate the accuracy of the birth time when the current #horoscope is in doubt

This tool is also extensively used in #PrashnaAstrology. (8/16)

#गुप्तज्योतिष

9-Let’s say someone comes to the #Jyotishi and asks a question – constantly looking downwards.

The #Jyotishi can then infer that a positive answer won't happen for his question.

Since this signifies Saturn and Saturn tends to rule bad results. (9/16)

#Astrology.

10-The caveat is if Saturn or Rahu are well placed in the Prashna or the #HoraryChart –

..the observation has to be tempered with other calculations. (10/16)

11-हे पार्वतीहृदयवल्लभ चन्द्रमौले

भूताधिप प्रमथनाथ गिरीशजाप।

हे वामदेव भव रुद्र पिनाकपाणे

12-O Lord of #Gauri's heart with your head adorned with the moon,

Lord of the creatures and the goblins,

who mutters his prayers in the mountains,

O Vāmadeva, #Bhava (creator),

#Rudra (who punishes sinners) (12/16)

13-the wielder of the #Pināka

O Lord of the #universe,

..protect me who am forlorn in the wilderness of the miseries of this

14-#Buddha famously said, #Life is #Suffering.

Instead, it is one of the first great #Truths of #Buddhism

My own personal attempt towards alleviating suffering in this world is #charity

..and giving people the best advise I can. (14/16)

#AstrologicalThread.

15-To that end, I use #Astrological Consultations – wherein the intent is - to raise money and donate the proceeds to charity.

Join me in this #Yajna

Those seeking a personal consultation - please send a Direct Message. (15/16)

#Astrology.

16-Money thus generated, shall be given to #charity.

Preference will be given to those, with acute issues.

May #Goddess #Saraswati guide this little effort of mine with her own hands.! (16/16)
