Company of Mahatmas Elevates People

Some people have a complex that they do not possess any merit; that they do not have any status in the
society. Such persons should seek the blessings of Mahatmas (Selfrealised souls).
Associations with Mahatmas bestows a number of benefits. First, they see that the person does not tread
the wrong path. They show him the right way and develop a spirit of devotion.
Above all, they see that the person gains respect in the society. Have we not seen many people, though
devoid of merit, accomplish things by proclaiming their association with Mahatmas?
Take the example of an ordinary thread. Nobody notices it or gives it any respect. But when it strings
flowers into a garland, it is offered to God. People place it on their heads. By associating with the flower,
the thread gains the respect which it did not have earlier.
Similarly, people can lead an honourable life in society by associating with great persons.
Therefore, all should seek the company of Mahatmas.

Jupiter is the naisargika putra-kraka and the worship of Lord iva is always beneficial for children. The three
signs Cancer, Libra and Pisces are termed fruitful signs due to the akti of Durg, Lakm and Sarasvat
respectively. Keeping these two vital points in mind, one can proceed to say that:

All odd-signs indicate male children except the two wind signs Gemini and Aquarius.
All even signs indicate female children except the two water signs Cancer and Pisces.
We may conclude that signs indicating a male child are Aries, Cancer, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Pisces.
Signs indicating a female child are Taurus, Gemini, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Aquarius.

right? Usually we deal with fear by drowning ourselves in food, abusive
substances, sexual outlets, zoning out, watch TV or movies, playing video
games or even escape to meditation. Does this serve us or numb us out?
When we turn on the television, the media is ranting and feeding our
fear. Iran is firing test missiles. Trump is tweeting. The next storm watch Barry Rosen has been practicing

But usually the worst I imagine does not happen and the world goes on and does not fall apart and I do not
think 2017 will be a major catastrophic year when things will fall apart or even 2018 will be all that bad in the
absurd ways that people are fearing. If you want to worry, maybe focus on 2019-20 when Jupiter is conjunct
Saturn and Ketu and Pluto but that is taking us out of the joy and wonder that could happen in our lives this
year or next year and who knows what will get resolved by 2019-20? I remember 1989 was a pivotal year for the
world in astrology but the Berlin wall came down peacefully and the Soviet Bloc crumbled peacefully and so
maybe - just maybe - we can have a peaceful transition in 2019-20.
For those of you who like to live in the future and worry big, worry about 2031-32 when Saturn goes into Rohini,
which is one of those apocalyptic transits that happen every 29 years and was running when 9/11 happened in
2001. But why worry about something 14 years away? The world will continue to exist somehow. God has a

be created. Japan and Germany in 1945 were a mess but look what has emerged today and who would have
seen that in 1945?
Look within. Is your survival mechanism misfiring too much? Is it serving you? Are you missing out on the small
joys and wonders in the world? Playing with your kids or grandchildren? Enjoying the beauty of nature or art?

Judging Progeny using the


Sphuta Technique in Vedic Astrology
| Alan Annand

Alan Annand is certified by the American College of Vedic


Astrology. Hes published three books on astrology, notably
Parivartana Yoga. He also writes novels, wherein the hero of his
New Age Noir mystery series is a Vedic astrologer.

W
HEN a client asks When will I have children? or How many children will I have? they are already
getting ahead of themselves. This is because the first and fundamental question should be, Will I
have children?

To answer this basic question, astrologers will typically examine any and all planets that associate with or aspect
the 5th house, the 5th lord and Jupiter. Depending on the influence and strength of male or female planets, they
will thereby assess the prospects for male or female children.

In a similar manner, astrologers will also look for planets that associate with or aspect the 5th house from the
lagna, from the 5th house, from the 5th lord and from Jupiter. As in the previous protocol, they will again look
for strong planets of either sex to suggest the viability of children.

The Sputa
Other astrologers use the concepts of bija sputa and kshetra sputa to assess the virility or fertility of a man or
woman, respectively. In brief, these are two symbolic points, derived mathematically from the zodiacal positions
of key planets. The calculations are as follows:

For a male nativity, the bija sputa = zodiacal longitude of the Sun (man) + longitude of Venus (semen) +
longitude of Jupiter (child)

For a female nativity, the kshetra sputa = zodiacal longitude of the Moon (woman) + longitude of Mars (ovum)
+ longitude of Jupiter (child)

Once calculated, the sputa should be noted by sign in the rasi. The bija sputa should be in male signs, the kshetra
sputa in female signs. Reversing either detracts points rather than granting them.

The sputa in question should be associated with or aspected by benefics, especially Jupiter, the karaka for children.
The sputa should not be associated with or aspected by malefics, especially Saturn, which is considered a neuter.

The sputas position should also be converted to its navamsa equivalent. Its placement should then be noted
by sign within the navamsa chart. Keep score the same as with the rasi, granting or subtracting points when the
sputa is in male/female signs, and associated with or aspected by benefics/malefics.

Once this is done, we will have a general idea as to whether children are possible or not, and if so, whether they
might be few or several.

there will be great happiness in respect of progeny. If the dots are larger in number, the happiness in respect of
progeny will be meager. The number of children is equal to the number of rekhas in the 5th bhava (from Guru)
provided it is not the rashi of debilitation of Guru or his enemys rashi. In that case the number of children
will be very limited. The number of children is also equal to the number of navamsa in which the lord of the

hat is known as Hindu or Vedic Astrology has its origin in India, and is based on records that go back
to 4500 B.C. The founder of this system is Parashara Muni, who lived in 1500 B.C. and was known
to draw up the first personal natal horoscope. Besides this he worked on the astrology of health and
instigated the indicators of longevity. His manuscripts are still carefully guarded and kept in India. Another
important astrologer who lived in the same period was Seer Ranavira. He was mainly concerned with human
relationships, womens birth charts the psychological aspects of astrology. Vedic Astrology is also known as
Joytisha. This can be interpreted as to mean light, brilliant and having to do with the realm of light. It can
mean cosmic light as it reflects on the individuals path in life in Vedic Astrology. The understanding of the
divine plan (providence) or spiritual motivation plays a key role in conceiving this phenomenon (karma). Vedic
Astrologers take upon themselves the task of dispersing darkness.
As in Western Astrology real birth is considered the time when the new born baby takes its first breath and cries
out. The alignment of the planets on the sidereal zodiac based on the fixed position of the stars. According to
Indian philosophy the birth chart is an indicator of ones past life karma. In one of his works Varaha Mihira
mentions that the birth chart reflects the good and back actions in ones past lives. It is important not to confuse
astrology with fatalism and predestination in this respect.
According to Vedic astrologer Chakrapani Ullal, a fundamental conjecture of Hindu Astrology is that planets
are mere indicative (influencing) forces that warn about harmful circumstances in ones life. It is the individuals
task to interpret these indicators and to adjust himself so as to avoid unfavorable consequences. In order for a
person to make this choice and succeed in the struggle, one has to attain to divine grace and also to use ones
personal resources. Understanding astrological phenomena depends on understanding and interpreting what
the planets represent. The Vedic term for planet is Graha which means effective or ruling humans. Planets
represent Maya or illusions that veil the personality. It is necessary to know all the planets and to resolve
them. The alignment of the planets on the natal chart reflects the powers needed by the individual to resolve
the problems they indicate on the specific areas of the chart.
In traditional Hindu Astrology, the planets Uranus, Neptune and Pluto have no part. Hindu astrologers claim
that the lunar nodes reflect the energies of the trans-Saturn planets. Some modern Vedic Astrologers do in fact
make use of these lately discovered planets while drawing a natal chart. However no ancient interpretations
to this effect exist.
It is believed that the planets reflect the divine attributes we are bestowed with by birth and reflect our spiritual
potential. The planets take turns to act as emission stations and channels of celestial intelligence. Our task as
humans is to interpret their stellar language and to understand the message they send to the world.
The fundamental philosophy of Hindu Astrology lies in the Doctrine of Karma. The horoscope is merely a
depiction of sky at the moment of birth and is indicative of what past lives have sowed and what will be reaped
as a result, in other words it encodes what the future holds in store. It does not determine the future but notifies
what may be. Ones foreknowledge of the energies influencing coming events may assist one to developing the
needed will power so that one can avoid unfavorable circumstances. In Vedic Astrology even people born with
a difference of one or two minute can have different astrological attributes.

First column gives the English dates and next to it the names of the regional months and dates. The ending moments of
Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga and Karana are given in the 24 hour clock extending to 30 hours.
Of the Nityayogas, Vishkumbha, Parigha, Vyatipata, Vajra, Vyaghata, Vaidhruthi, Sula, Ganda and Atiganda are generally
spurned for auspicious events and they are marked in red in the Panchanga. Vydhruti pervades from 34640 to 360 and
Vyatipata from 21320 to 22640 of the sum of the Nirayana longitudes of the Sun and the Moon. Vydhruti and Vyatipata
punyakaala are observed on the day when the yogas prevail for 1 hours or more, when Sraddha is performed by the
astute. These two belong to the shannavati -96- Sraddhas ordained for a householder. Considering the astronomical
implications, the Sayana Vydhruti and Vyatipata days are also indicated in the Panchanga. The auspicious Amritayoga
and Siddhayoga and inauspicious Maranayoga and Prabalarishtayoga come under Amirtaadiyoga scheme and are different
from the Nityayogas.
The Karana is the half of the Tithi. They are mainly classified as Sthira - fixed or immovable and Chara or moveable.
The Chara Karanas are seven in number and the Sthira are only four. The fixed ones are inauspicious. They are Sakuni,
Chatushpada, Naga and Kimsatugna. The seven movable Karanas are in their order, Bava, Baalava, Kaulava, Taitila,
Gara, Vanija and Vishti (or Bhadra.) Among the movable Karanas Vishti or Bhadra is considered to be of dreadful. The
forbidden Karanas are marked in red for easy identification.
We have most of our religious observances pegged on to the Tithis. Pournamipooja Chandradarisana, Sankataharachaturthi
Vrata, Shastivrata, Ekadasi Vrata and Pradosha are specially mentioned in the Panchanga. Pournamipooja is done in the
evenings on days the full Moon is prevalent. Chandradarisana is observed on the evening on the day when the crescent
Moon appears for the first time in the west after the Amavasya. Chaturthi of the Krishnapaksha or Bahula Chaturthi of
every month is known as Sankataharachaturthi. The evenings of Sukla and Krishna Trayodasi days are specially observed
as Pradosha Vrata days.
