What Planet Did You Come From? the Atmakaraka, Or Your What Planet Did You Come From? The Atmakaraka, Your or “Soul” Planet I was watching the TV show, Deception, and noticed that the main character, Joanna Locasto, the undercover cop who was investigating the murder of her best friend, had a luminous, soft, and somewhat round face. Her eyes are large and looked like she was lit , from within her whole being seems to shine. The thought occurred to me that the she looked like MOON. The actor, Meagan Good, plays a cop on the show, so I ed expect that Mars would be prominent in her birth chart too as Mars rules the police. Most actors play themselves in some way or another in most of their roles. Not consciously, of course, but because the universe has innate an order that we all follow whether we know it or not. I found h er birth chart data through Astrotheme.com. I cast her chart and expected to see that Atmakaraka, her soul or “essence” planet is the Moon. Sure enough, there it is, the planet at the highest degree (not counting Pluto, Uranus, or Neptune), is the Moon. Furthermore, it’s in the sign of Scorpio, one of the signs ruled by Mars, AND, aspected by ! Mars In fact, she has a Moon/Mars mutual reception, meaning that the Moon is in a Mars sign and Mars is in the Moon’s Sun sign. She has the in the ascendant (the box with the diagonal line through it) and probably adds to her “shine.” Meagan Good birth chart 8/8/1981 06:00:00 Panorama City, CA Lagna: 12 Leo 58 Mars rules Aries and Scorpio; Aries is the masculine, and Scorpio is the feminine version. It’s not surprising that Megan Good’s Moon is in the sign of Scorpio, and that her AK, or soul planet, is , the feminine planet the Moon. You can see that she looks very feminine and soft, yet convincingly she is able to play a cop too. What is the Atmakaraka? Simply put, it’s the planet at the highest degree in the birth chart, and it is the planet that best expresses your “essence.” Once you know what each planet looks like and what it’s significations are you can easily identify what a person is basically about and how they will express their It’s personalities. really a lot of fun! One night I was doing some boring paperwork and wanted to watch TV at the same time, but not something that would demand ally, much from me ment I just wanted the company . I found a bunch American of clips from Idol on Hulu, and started them up. I don’t watch American Idol any other time and figured it would be pleasant, but not too distracting to have on. However, I got completely hooked because the singers were so amazingly good, and the judges were so interesting! Or, I should , say what I SAW in the judges as an -­‐-­‐ astrologer their Atmakarakas, or “soul” planets-­‐-­‐ was so interesting (watching television as an loger astro is a different experience)! Nikki Minaj , a judge on the panel, had to Mars. be She is so adamant in expressing her opinions and has a way of very being forceful and clear in her She delivery. is surprisingly articulate (surprisingly, because she has a reputation for being a bit strange), and she gives very good advice to the contestant singers. Curious, I looked up her birth chart on Astrotheme, and yes, her AK in her birth chart was Mars. Now, because the judges are all musicians, the Moon should be dominant in some way in each of their charts, as the rules Moon music music ( and the Moon are about rhythm). However, Mariah Carey is the most “Moon-­‐like” in my opinion because she has another characteristic of the Moon, her way of giving feedback to the contestants. According to Parashara Hora Shastra (ancient Sanskrit treatise on astrology), the MOON is: “Abounding in Vata and Kapha and filled with knowing is the Moon of round body, O’ Twice auspiciously Born, eyed, of sweet speech, fluctuating and love sick.” Mariah Carey , another judge on the American Idol panel, is concerned about the singer’s next performance and she feels it’s her job to be supportive, rather than critical, so much so, that she has been “talked to” about it from the bosses of the show who like more intensity for ratings. So, naturally, her AK should the be Moon, and so and it is, in the sign Pisces. of Pisces is , kind compassionate, and empathic and so wants to be supportive and inspiring! Plus, her Moon is with Jupiter, the great benefic and the planet that loves to give and pass on dom wis and knowledge. Mariah Carey’s Birth Chart: March 27, 1970 07:27:00 Long Island City, NY Lagna: 14 Taurus 10 Keith Urban, also on the American Idol panel, a country and western singer, also has gentle a demeanor and the feedback he gives is supportive, so he must be another Moon person too. Not surprisingly, his birth chart indicates that he too has the Moon as his AK, in the sign of Cancer, the Moon’s own sign, and he has the Moon in the first house (someday I’ll research why a musician chooses a certain type of music). Keith is a very Moon-­‐like person! Keith’s chart, 10/26/1967, 00:05:00, Whangarei, New Zealand What Planet Did You Come From? In the Jaimini sutras, Jaimini says the Atmakaraka is the planet we came from and the planet we eturn r to. I found to this be a very intriguing thing to say, and I can’t really tell you what it means, except that when you know the characteristics of the planets, you can recognize the “essence” of the people you know personally, and don’t know lly persona . The AK tells you what makes a person tick, how to approach them, have a relationship with them, conquer them if they are an enemy, and how to love them. When you understand what planet you came from (apparently we are all just visitors here on earth as no one is “from” earth), and you understand what that planet is about, you understand your basic essence and what you are doing here. The Atmakaraka is central to your career or vocation in life and it can help you find your way much more world quickly in a of overwhelming options. You may end up doing a career that is related to your s ascendant if your i stronger, but whatever you do, you will be doing it in the way your soul planet dictates. Your AK also describes your type of intelligence. You may have all of the seven types of intelligence well developed, but your main type of intelligence is what all the others will be secondary to (this topic will be covered in the upcoming online course that Ryan Kurczak and I will be more teaching together, about this below). More About the MOON When I Found out that my AK is the Moon, I was not surprised. I was instantly brought back a to memory something of I did when I was about 14 years old. I waited until everyone in my family was asleep, and crept outside under cool the beautiful light of the full Moon. I quietly parted the low-­‐hanging branches and leaves of the big weeping ow will tree we had in the back yard and slipped through, the leaves closing behind me like a pair of curtains. Under the tree was a picnic bench lit up by the light of the full Moon. The leaves of the ping wee willow shielded me from possible prying eyes from my house, but the other side was more sparse and open was to the Moonlight. There nothing on that side of the a tree but tall fence and a ditch with tall bamboo on the other side of that, or too dense f anyone to get through easily and no way for anyone to see me. I laid down on the picnic bench top and “bathed” in the Moonlight for a few hours! It was pure bliss. I didn’t know why I did this, it seemed instinctual at the time, but now I know -­‐-­‐ why the Moon is my AK, my soul’s home (Moon bathing is supposed to be very good for balancing hormones too, but that is another story for a different . day) When you Find out what planet you came from, don’t be surprised if a memory of something you did years ago pops into your mind too, usually when you were very young, that perfectly fits your with soul planet!

Sri Srimad A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada in March, 1971. He lived in India for 6 years till 1983, studying Jyotish and has received certificate of commendation for spreading Hindu astrology in the USA, from the Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, in 1999. Web site: http://www.robertkoch.com n the first Canto of the great Vedic Purana Srimad Bhagavatam, there is a very interesting and instructional conversation that took place between a bull personifying I Dharma, or religion, and Bhumi, the mother earth in the form of a cow. The bull was standing on one leg, suggesting that that one out of four pillars of religious principles (represented by each leg of Dharma, the bull) was still existing, and that in itself was faltering with the progress of Kali-yuga. The four legs of the Dharma are truthfulness, cleanliness, mercy, and austerity. If most or all of these legs of Dharma are broken, or if 3 out of 4 Dharmic principles exist very rarely, in human society, then we can be confident that Kali-yuga – the age of quarrel and darkness – is well upon us. Given that there are some rare souls existing who speak and live the Supreme Absolute Truth, as is found in various Vedic literatures, the remaining leg of truthfulness still exists. Such persons are characterized by complete self-control, or the ability to detach themselves from the relative world of the senses and the objects of sense pleasure.

  • Uttarakalamritam by Kalidasa
    Uttara Kalamritam by Kalidasa Edited by Chistabo, May 2012 Uttarakalamritam by Kalidasa As per English translation by Panditabushana V. Subrahmanya Sastri B.A. 1 Uttara Kalamritam by Kalidasa Edited by Chistabo, May 2012 INTRODUCTION Present is one more addition to existing literature, pertaining to great and celestial science of Astrology. Many ordinary incidents in life, which we pass by and notice not, as well as phenomena of nature, are easily explained with reference to Astrology. There have been indications of it in works which I have previously translated, viz. Brihat Jataka, Jatakaparijata, Sripati Paddhati and Phaladeepika, works by giants of Astrology. As an instance of influence of phenomena of nature on human life, reference may be made to rainbow caused by refraction of Surya’s rays through a watery prism, consisting of particles of rain water. Rainbow is produced on a morning or on an evening, i.e. when Surya is at Lagna or Astha Lagna. Then, when Surya is at Lagna (rising Rasi or Ascendant), seventh Rasi is encircled by beautiful circles of seven variegated colors on a watery plane. Even so, rising Rasi is encircled by circles of like nature, when Surya is posited in 7th Rasi. Lagna represents native, while seventh Rasi denotes partner of native. Life of native will be happy, cordial and jovial if there be a sympathetic, loving and understanding support from partner. Seven colors of rainbow represent seven Grahas, who by various combinations produce seven kinds of energy or seven modes of motion that are found common in Universe. Uttarakalamritam, which is here translated, discloses a treasure house of knowledge on Astrology, so far unrevealed.

The Hindu science of study of these planets is called the Vedic Astrology. Classical Vedic astrology uses the seven visible planets Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn, along with the two lunar nodes, the north and south nodes, Rahu and Ketu. The Hindu astrology is based on an elaborate calculation of the positions of these planets at the time of one's birth. For example, the zodiac is divided in to twelve zones ('houses' of 30 degrees each). The planet Sun travels in to one of these houses each month. Similarly, the other planets have their times of travel through the zodiac assigned to them. As the planets travel through these zodiac signs, their relative positions with respect to each other changes and is supposed to determine the fate of the human affairs. An astrologer can draw up a horoscope of a person based on his time of birth and calculate the relative positions of the planets relative to this horoscope.

  • Unrevealed Usage of Karakas Via Chara Dasha an Original Observation by Roberto Velicaz, Italy
    Unrevealed Usage Of Karakas Via Chara Dasha An Original Observation By Roberto Velicaz, Italy. Editor: Muhammad Imran, Pakistan [Roberto is a young astrologer with a humble research oriented mind, his first maiden article deserves great applause and encouragement. Additional applause to M. Imran for being the Editor in piecing together this original research in a very lucid and presenting it in a classical style. Roberto remains indebted to K N Rao for revealing Late Vemuri Sastri’s Chara Dasha. The examples illustrated are not for the spoon fed astrologers. - SA] 1 hara Dasha is an important predictive technique in Jyotish. It is basically a sign- based Direction and usually ranked top among Phalit Dashas (periods of good-bad 2 3 fruits). Both Parashar and Jaimini maintained a fair amount of discussion about C Chara Dasha. Yet, controversies over its calculation and utility still exist. The first reason is the highly terse and complex formation of ancient Jyotish texts and the second reason is dozens of their commentaries and annotations. On the other hand, modern living authorities on Jaimini Phalit Dashas, have abstained to decode the codes of Chara Karakas and Chara Dasha (at least in their published stuff). That is why, choosing a flawless path has really become hard for today’s Jyotish learner. This writ-up intends to highlight an untold aspect of timing adverse events through Chara Dasha. According to scribe, there is a direct relation between occurring of adverse event and the running Chara Dasha having Gnathikaraka (GK) in 1st or 6th there from. The particular area of life should scrutinize from relevant divisional chart (Varga Chakra).

  • The Significance Karakas in Jaimini Astrology
    THE SIGNIFICANCE KARAKAS IN JAIMINI ASTROLOGY THE SIGNIFICANCE OF KARAKAS IN JAIMINI ASTROLOGY There are difference of opinion among scholars while considering the Chara Karakas to be taken in Jaimini astrology. 1. Pandit Sanjay Rath considers 8 karakas, including Rahu. According to him, in his Jaimini Upadesa Sutras, he has given Rahu also a place as Atma Karak. 2. On the other hand, Dr. K.N. Rao and his followers have taken the 7 planets (excluding Rahu) as Karakas and maintain that Rahu cannot be given the status of Atma Karak. 3. Dr. K.N. Rao has omitted Pitri karak. Instead, he says in “My Seven Step Approach: “What about a karaka for father? The problem is easily solved if you use Bhatrikaraka and Sun for father and Bhatrikaraka and Mars for siblings as has been as shown in some books on Jaimini. Here we must remember that sthirakarakas must always be considered in Jaimini astrology.” 4. Gary Gomes states in “The Structure of Jamini Astrology” as follows: “These karakas are of extreme importance in judging a chart, especially in terms of career potential and, especially, for judging spiritual potential, as indicated in both the Brihat Parasara Hora Sastra and the Jaimini Sutram. There are karakas in Parasara astrology, but these are based on certain natural karakas of the planets. For example, Venus is the natural karaka for marriage and Mars is the karaka for brothers. However, in Jaimini astrology, the karakas can be any of the planets. (I choose to follow Mr. Rao in choosing to exclude the North and South Lunar Node — Rahu and Ketu — as Jaimini karakas for most purposes.

  • Jyotish Vidya ( Sage Parasara ) Chapter 1. the Creation 1-4
    1 Jyotish vidya ( sage Parasara ) Chapter 1. The Creation 1-4. Offering his obeisance to all-knowing sage Parasara and with folded hands, Maitreya said, "O Venerable, Astrology, the supreme limb of the Vedas, has three divisions, viz. Hora, Ganita and Samhita. Among the said three divisions, Hora or genethliac part of astrology is still more excellent. I desire to know of its glorious aspects from you. Be pleased to tell me, "How this Universe is created? How does it end? What is the relationship of the animals born on this earth with the heavenly bodies? Please speak elaborately". 5-8. Parasara answered, O Brahmin, your query (so to say, the desire to know of the intricacies of astrology) has an auspicious purpose in it for the welfare of the Universe. Praying Lord Brahma and Sri Saraswati, His power (and consort), and the Sun God, the leader of the planets and the cause of Creation. I shall proceed to narrate to you the Science of Astrologfy as heard through Lord Brahma. Only good will follow the teaching of this science to the students who are peacefully disposed, who honour the preceptors (and elders), who speak only truth and who are God-fearing. Woeful for ever doubtlessly will it be to impart knowledge of this science to an unwilling student, to a heterodox, and to a crafty person. 9-12. Sri Vishnu who is the lord (of all matters), who has undefiled spirit, who is endowed with the three Gunas although he transcends the grip of Gunas (i.e. Gunatita), who is the Author of this Universe, who is glorious, who is the Cause and who is endowed with valor has no beginning.

  • Predicting with Transits by Ernst Wilhelm
    Predicting with Transits By Ernst Wilhelm www.astrology-videos.com Thanks to computers, which an easily calculate transits, transits are an effective and simple method for making predictions. This was not so in ancient times when calculating transits was cumbersome work. In order to make accurate and specific predictions, however, both standard planetary aspects and Rasi aspects have to be used and these both have to be used in conjunction with the Vargas. Activation Points Predicting with transits is based upon determining when certain points become activated by transiting planets. When these points are activated, an event happens. The points that can be activated are the following: 1. A Bhava Cusp 2. The Lords of a Bhava Cusp (The plural is used for Lord as a Bhava has several lords, one in each Varga.) 3. A Graha as a Karaka 4. A Jaimini Cara Karaka These points can be activated Broadly or Exactly. When they are activated Broadly a window of opportunity exits for the point to manifest. This window may be only a few days or up to a few months long. A point is activated Exactly when it is activated by an exact conjunction or aspect. Within the window of opportunity of Broad activation, when the same point or point of similar meaning is activated Exactly, the event happens on the day of the Exact activation. Vargas and an Activation Point's Lord The term Lord applies not necessarily to the lord in the Rasi, but to the lord of the relevant Varga and always to the Shastiamsa lord.
