What actually travels after death?

Your soul? No. Not as you think.

In Sanatan Dharma, your existence has 3 layers:
1.Physical Body (Sthool Sharir):
•What you see in the mirror.
•Made of flesh and bones.
•It dies here itself.

2.Subtle Body (Sukshma Sharir):
•Made of mind, thoughts, memory, ego.
•It carries your desires, emotions, and memories from life to life.
•In astrology, Moon, Mercury, Lagna and 4th house show its working. 3.Causal Body (Karana Sharir):
•The deepest layer – it stores your karmic seeds.
•Why you are born, what you are here to experience – all lies here.
•Rahu, Ketu, Atmakaraka, 3rd house and higher varga chart hint at this layer.

After death, soul (Atman) stays untouched – but the subtle and causal bodies carry your unfinished stories ahead.

Your brain dies, but your memories and karmas travel — that’s how rebirth happens.

Astrology helps us decode this hidden journey.
Not superstition. Not psychology. It’s deeper.

MUST READ 🙏🏼❤️

Everyone’s life path is different. What we face in this birth is the result of both good and bad karmas from the past.

I’m sharing two recent cases that reminded me of something important.

In the first case, a girl was facing constant struggles in her profession. The only question I asked her was, “How is your relationship with your father?” She said, “Very poor.”
I simply told her—improve that relationship.
It may sound simple, but I’ve seen this work many times. Clearing blocks in key relationships often unlocks growth. In another case, a person had long-standing problems in his career. I asked him, “Do you have ongoing issues with your wife?” He said yes—three to four years of tension.
Again, I guided him to heal that relationship.

These unresolved conflicts act like karmic blocks. They silently hold you back.

Sometimes clearing these blocks may not give instant results—because your prarabdha may be heavy—but clearing them is still necessary. I’ve seen it work repeatedly.

Saturn is retrograde — and it will remain so till around 28–29 November.
The coming 8 months are not going to be easy, especially July, August, and September. These three months can bring real challenges at a collective and personal level.
A short thread on how this transit may affect different signs 👇 Aries Moon / Lagna – Be careful about health and professional life. Both can feel unstable during this time.

Leo Moon / Lagna – Watch your stomach, lower back, and teeth. Health needs attention.

Sagittarius Moon / Lagna – Be mindful about matters related to your mother and home. Any residential shift should be taken seriously.

Venus in the Zodiac — and the lessons it brings.
We often speak of love, beauty, and comfort, but forget that Venus also teaches us detachment, balance, and grace in loss.
In this thread, I’ll share how Venus behaves in each zodiac sign — and the simple remedies that can help when its energy goes off-track.

Let’s begin, gently.
#Astrology #Venus #Shukra #aaskplanets #VenusRemedies 1/12 Aries (Mesha): Venus here can be impulsive- which can bring tensions in married life.
Remedies:

-Donate white clothes, rice, or sugar to needy women.
-Worship Mangla Gauri in Month of Shraavana & fast Tuesday sans salt.
-Offer sweets to young girls/widows.
- Avoid being reactive in relationship matters. Try to understand first.

Another interesting insight from D45 research—

If Mercury is afflicted in D45,
it directly disturbs the Akash Tattva—the direction and intelligence flowing from the universe.
This chart reflects the Trinity's subtle guidance.
And Mercury here shows how your intellect aligns with cosmic order. Venus affliction would show senses in wrong directions.

When Mercury is heavily afflicted in D45,
the person’s buddhi can take wrong directions.
Now, how wrong and to what intensity will depend on the entire horoscope.
But this is a gray zone—and a serious one.

Anyone with such placements should rethink their decision-making,
their logic, their sense of right and wrong.
I'm attaching a few famous charts of individuals who committed serious crimes,
to show the patterns I'm referring to. 👇 Sarah María Aldrete, known as "La Bruja" (the witch), was a Mexican Satanist and accomplice in a gruesome cult led by Adolfo Constanzo that blended black magic, drug trafficking, and ritual murder. Once a standout student and aspiring physical education teacher, she descended into darkness after meeting Constanzo in 1987.
By 1989, their cult was linked to at least 25 ritualistic killings. Arrested in 1993, Aldrete was charged with 17 murders but convicted on only two counts, receiving six years in prison as further charges loomed.

Astrological Analysis (D45 Chart):

Mercury and Saturn – Both Retrograde:
Mercury is retrograde.
Saturn is also retrograde.
There is a mutual exchange (parivartana) between Mercury and Saturn, showing entanglement of karma and intellect.

Gemini Sign is Heavily Afflicted:
Saturn and Mars are both occupying Gemini.
Gemini is Mercury’s own sign—so Mercury is afflicted by the presence of these malefics.
This weakens Mercury significantly.

Mercury is Afflicted and Weak:
Mercury is retrograde and afflicted by malefics.
It lies within the Rahu–Ketu axis (Rahu and Ketu are in 7th from Mercury).
This shows karmic entrapment and distorted thinking.
Mercury in D20 and D45, when afflicted like this, is not praised—it causes internal disturbance.

Presence of Jupiter, Venus, Moon – But Very Weak:
These benefics are placed in the 10th house.
However, their Shadbala strength and placement in Vaishyakamsha is poor.
So, even though they are present, they do not have the power to uplift or balance the chart.

Dominance of Malefics:
Mars, Saturn, and Mercury are stronger in this chart.
Unfortunately, Mercury—the planet of intellect and inner balance—is the one most caught in affliction.

Over the years, many youngsters have asked me—with pain in their voice—

What should I do if my father has been cruel to me? If he never understood me, never supported me, and instead became the cause of my suffering?

I remember replying to such questions with as much compassion as I could. But just recently, someone asked me the same question again. And this time, I felt like bringing back a very old, very sacred answer.

Look at Prahlad 👇 Tell me honestly—has any father ever been as harsh as Hiranyakashyapu was to him? He tried to poison him, burn him, throw him from a cliff, crush him with elephants—and yet, Prahlad never stopped seeing him as his father. He never stopped praying for his liberation.

1.
Sometimes, life gives you exactly what you asked for…
just after you no longer want it.
And sometimes, even blessings arrive like burdens.
A story about one such man — and the karma that wouldn’t leave him.
🧵👇 2.
There was a Brahmin. A true sāttvik soul.
No desires, no greed.
He had only one wish — to see his daughter married with honour.
But he had no wealth.
So he went deep into Tapasya…
Not for himself, but for her.

I’ve said this many times—whether I’m posting here on X or speaking on YouTube.

I’m always very conscious of what I write.
Every word is weighed.

I don’t write things to sound poetic.
I write what I have seen in life, in people, and yes—what I have found in shastra.
So when I say that your soul chooses your parents, or that your birth reflects your past-life tendencies,
I'm not pulling it out of thin air.

This is not a fantasy.
This comes directly from the Bhagavad Gita.
Let me show everyone- 👇 Bhagavad Gita 6.41

प्राप्य पुण्यकृतां लोकानुषित्वा शाश्वतीः समाः
शुचीनां श्रीमतां गेहे योगभ्रष्टोऽभिजायते॥

Translation:
The unsuccessful yogis, upon death, go to the abodes of the virtuous.
After dwelling there for many ages, they are again reborn in the earth plane, into a family of pious and prosperous people.

This verse directly tells us—birth is karmic.

A soul doesn’t land in a home by accident.

The nature of the family—its purity (shuchi) and prosperity (shrimat)—matches the inner quality of the soul.

That’s exactly what I meant when I said:

Sattvic souls choose sattvic parents. Tamasic ones, tamasic homes.

D45 has three Deities—Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesh.
They are the Trideva—the forces behind Creation, Sustenance, and Destruction.

This chart shows how divine energies operate within us—through the balance of Satva, Rajas, and Tamas.

If the 5th or 9th lord of your Rashi chart is well placed in D45,
you’re likely receiving clear direction from the universe.

“Well placed” means:
– In own sign or exalted
– Connected to unafflicted Jupiter Now, understand what affliction truly means:

A house is afflicted when:
1.Occupied or aspected by malefics
2.Owned by an afflicted planet
3.Repeats affliction in divisional charts

A planet is afflicted when:
1.It’s with or aspected by malefics
2.Placed in 6th, 8th, or 12th
3.Combust, debilitated, or in malefic signs
4.Weak or repeating affliction in divisional charts

D45 is not a casual chart—
It reveals how your soul is wired to receive divine guidance.
Read it carefully.

Understanding Jaimini Sign Aspects (Rāśi Drishti)

In Jaimini astrology, aspects aren’t based on degrees—they operate through signs (Rāśis). Instead of planets looking at each other, it’s the signs that connect and influence one another. All planets within a sign carry that sign’s gaze.

Here are the true rules—easy and intuitive:
1.Movable signs (Chara: Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn)
➤ They aspect all four fixed signs, except the one right next to them.
• Example: Aries skips Taurus but aspects Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius. 2.Fixed signs (Sthira: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius)
➤ They aspect all movable signs, except the sign immediately before them.
• Example: Taurus skips Aries but aspects Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn.

Most people ignore Jaimini Astrology. Even many seasoned astrologers treat it as secondary.
But the truth is—some of the most powerful yogas for dignity, fame, and status in life come from the Jaimini system.
This thread is my humble attempt to explain that. 🧵 In Parāśari astrology, we do come across a few yogas that rely on Jaimini Karakas—for example, the connection between Amātya Kāraka (AmK) and the 10th lord. This alone can show a rise in profession and respect in society.

But Jaimini takes it much further.

The Story & Power of the Kanakadhara Stotra- A remedy for your poor Finances

1/
Some hymns are born not from ritual, but from the heart’s raw cry.
The Kanakadhara Stotra is one such hymn.
Composed by Adi Shankaracharya as a young boy—not in a temple, but outside the door of a poor woman who had nothing.
🧵 2/
Shankaracharya, one of India’s greatest saints, was then just a student.
Following the ancient gurukul tradition, he would beg for alms each day.
One morning, hungry and tired, he knocked on the door of a humble hut and called out, “Bhavati Bhiksham Dehi” – O Mother, grant me alms.

Today, someone wrote to me. They’re going through extreme struggles, and I had once warned them—this period of life won’t be easy. The Dasha they’re in is karmically heavy.

But what really struck me in their mail was this line:
“I am slowly losing faith in God.”

This, to me, is more concerning than anything else.

You see, we often think that belief in God should bring us comfort, should bring us protection from suffering. And naturally, when pain becomes unbearable, our mind starts asking—

“If there is a God, why am I suffering so much?”

It’s a very human question. But I’ve observed something.
There are people who never pray, who don’t believe in God at all—and they are living beautiful, successful, prosperous lives.
And there are people who are deeply devoted—who chant, fast, do seva—and they are struggling in every way.

At the same time, there are also devotees who are flourishing, and non-believers who are going through hell.
So we must understand something important:

Bhakti is not a transaction.
Prayer is not a bargain.
God is not a shortcut to a pain-free life.

In Vedic Astrology, the 5th house is seen as the Pūrva Janma Punya—the past life’s accumulated merit. The 9th house represents the Ihajanma Punya—the merit earned in this life. Both are called Punya Bhavas for a reason: they represent the spiritual credit with which we arrive, and the merit we build through Dharma, devotion, and righteous actions. When it comes to having children, these two houses—5th and 9th—must be well placed and free from severe afflictions. If they are not, the soul may still be granted a child, but the path may come with pain: a delay, loss, disability, or even a child who becomes the cause of sorrow. These are not casual difficulties. They are deeply karmic.

🧵 Hanuman Ashtak — jab kuchh samajh na aaye, bas ise padh lo.

1/
This is not some ancient Sanskrit hymn you can’t relate to.
It’s 8 simple verses written by a man who was broken…
…and found Hanuman.
His name was Tulsidas.
And he saw Hanuman. Not in a temple. But in the eyes of a man with leprosy. 2/
That leper was Hanuman in disguise.
Tulsidas fell at his feet and begged for darshan.
And there, in that moment—under the open sky of Kashi—these 8 verses were born.
Hanuman didn’t give him a throne.
He gave him words.

Today is Somavati Amavasya.

It’s a very special day. When Amavasya falls on a Monday, it’s considered highly powerful for spiritual and ancestral work.

In Mahabharata, Bhishma Pitamah had told Yudhishthira to observe a fast on Somavati Amavasya—for the well-being of future generations. Today, Sun and Moon are together in Taurus. That’s a natural time to pray to Lord Shiva, especially for those doing sadhana or Pitru-related work.

I also feel today is very good for married women (Vat Savitri Vrat) to do the Vat tree parikrama—108 rounds.
This ritual is believed to bring blessings for the long life of one’s husband.

Apara Ekadashi: the day even heavy sins get washed away

1/
There’s a day in the year where even the deepest burden on the soul can start to lift. That day is today—Apara Ekadashi. 2/
The story goes like this:

A just and kind king, Mahidhwaj, was killed by his own younger brother—Vajradhwaj—out of jealousy.

His soul couldn’t move on. It kept wandering, stuck between worlds. No peace. No rest.

Benefits of Strong Jupiter 🧵

A well-positioned Jupiter in one’s birth chart bestows numerous blessings:

•Wisdom and clarity of thought
•Spiritual advancement and religious inclination
•Financial prosperity and abundance
•Strong ethical principles and good judgment
•Academic success and higher learning capabilities
•Optimistic outlook and positive life perspective
•Generosity and philanthropic tendencies
•Healthy progeny and harmonious family life A weak Jupiter may cause:

•Laziness and indolence
•Excessive indulgence in sensory pleasures
•Limited success in business ventures and relationships
•Lack of spiritual inclination or religious devotion
•Inability to share wisdom constructively
•Tendencies that harm others’ welfare
•Extreme greed for material wealth

—Inflammation and dry skin conditions
—Diabetes and obesity
—Liver-related ailments
—Issues with fat tissues and thighs

You often hear things like—“Namjap and prayers will erase your karmas,” or “Your bad karma will vanish through devotion.”
Yes, I agree—the shastras do say this. But let me take you a little deeper.
👇 It’s not magic. It’s the mind—your conscious and unconscious layers—that stores everything.
Every karma—good or bad, every emotion, every action, even from past births—is perfectly stored.
You don’t remember it consciously, but it’s all there—buried deep in the unconscious.

Yes, Narendra Modi ji became Prime Minister because of powerful Rajyogas and planetary support. But why did he have such a horoscope? Why did those Yogas manifest in his chart?
Because his Prarabdha — the karmic residue of past lives — was shaped by immense Purushartha (personal effort). The body he was born into, the mind he was gifted with, the determination he showed — all of it is Prakriti working through him.

Read complete 👇🏽 As the Gita says (3.27):
All actions are done by the gunas of Prakriti, but the ego deluded man thinks ‘I am the doer.’

It is not the soul that acts — it merely observes. The Trigunas — Sattva, Rajas, Tamas — drive action. And when a being has cultivated lifetimes of Rajas (effort, will, fire), that manifests as a horoscope aligned with karmic fruition — Rajyogas, strength, visibility, mass impact.

Saturn has entered Pisces.

To understand what this means for your life, you first need to understand what Pisces truly is.

This thread will uncover the nature of Pisces — its depth, its qualities — so you can see clearly how Saturn will behave here and what it’s bringing into your life.

Read slowly — this thread has layers. Pisces is the 12th and final sign of the natural zodiac.
It’s the end of the cycle — the space of dissolution, surrender, and silence.
Pisces is the sign of moksha, the realm where God resides. It’s the sign of the Mother’s Dharma — because if your mother hadn’t fulfilled even a part of her sacred duty, you wouldn’t have been born.

It’s a sign of deep letting go. A place where nothing stays.
It’s where you walk alone.

When death comes, nothing and no one goes with you — only your impressions and tendencies, as the Gita reminds us.
