Krittika, Thee Orphic Child. Pt 2 (Brief add-on)

“Humanity is said to have been formed from the ashes of the Titans, whose remains gave rise to the human body, that is also believed to be a prison for the soul. Yet because the Titans had consumed Zagerus, a divine esscene was also transmitted to humanity, making up their soul. As a result, humans were believed to possess a dualistic nature that were clashing with each other.” -Wovenpixieglass

Just to touch on humanity’s connection to Zagerus and the titans some more, I believe this battle between the Titanic body and the inherited soul from Zagerus can be an experience Krittika deals with as well. After all, Krittika is a misra (mixed) of all qualities. As I have mentioned above, humans in relation to the Orphic beliefs are said to possess a dualistic nature, consisting of the titans (body) and Zagerus (spirit, soul, divinity). Orphic philosophy viewed the body as a prison, an enclosure full of sins (karmas) that were inherited from the titans (the dismemberment and cannibalism of Zagerus by the Titans). Using this logic, limitation and boundaries appropriately describe the body. It is divinity’s vehicle for maneuvering through matter, but doing so, divinity is also subjected to the conditions of matter. Saturn’s debilitation in Aries makes sense, as Sun, significator of the soul, exalts in Aries. Spirit’s divinity becomes constrained within matter. Karma and debt are also significators of Saturn, so I do think Saturn has an association with the body so far as it is the vehicle through which we face our karma and repay our debts in life. Which can only be dealt with through being in a body.

Within the nakshatras of Aries (Aja, the unborn state) we can see this too. Ashwini (deepest exaltation point of the Sun falls here) is that initiating force that propels the soul into its next incarnation (the pushing during childbirth). Bharani (deepest debilitation point of Saturn falls here), the star of restraint, is symbolized by the womb, the site in which limitations of embodiment (the physical body) are imposed upon the soul. Krittika is in the physical world, a soul (Zagerus) confined within the body (Titanic) as a consequence of inherited transgressions (overseen by Yama, the judge of the souls and dispenser of karmas. Yama is the deity of Bharani) that must be paid and the punishment being spirit under the conditions of a human body. Due to this (soul’s imprisonment in a sinful body), living in the body was considered a state of death or blindness to the truth (forgetfulness of the soul’s divine Dionysian origin). To escape this confinement and cycles of reincarnation, followers of the Orphism would practice asceticism (sexual abstinence, no animal or blood sacrifices, no violence, vegetarianism, fasting) and secret initiations (symbolic death, reenacting Orpehus descent into the underworld, soul’s journey through darkness to divine light). These practices were performed for the purification (Krittika’s has Dahana Shakti, power to burn and purify) and refinement of the spirit, allowing the soul to achieve eternal life and avoid being confined to a body again after death (metempsychosis). Which our evil Titanic nature becomes the reason our soul returns for another incarnation. Through purging the Titanic nature, the more the divine essence is strengthened.

However, Orphism can be seen as a reformed, more ascetic version of the Dionysian mysteries. In those earlier rites, followers of Dionysus (generally referred to as Bacchae, Maenads, Thyiades for women and Bacchoi for men) goal were to reach a ecstasis (standing outside oneself) so that the spirit of the god Dionysus could possess them (receiving his power, accessing that divinity). This often would be achieved through the help of wine, various intoxicating substances, instruments producing various piercing sounds and dance, which induced a frenzy state. In this state, all inhibitions were stripped away (which is solar if we consider Shiva being the Pratyadhi-Devata of the Sun. Shiva being the transformative aspect of the Sun. To add, Shiva and Dionysus are often compared to each other) and acts such as sparagmos (tear and mangling of the flesh) and omophagia (the eating of raw flesh) were performed on a animal or human. Now, sparagmos and omophagia were viewed negatively by followers of Orphism because this is the sinful deed that the Titans did to Zagerus, which led to the human race inheriting their sins and the soul being imprisoned in the body. Orphism, in contrast, sought to temper these tendencies, emphasizing purification and the soul’s liberation (it’s not just about death for death sake, so suicide was not encouraged but liberation from the cycle of reincarnation) from such bodily excesses.

Notes: As I have mentioned above, this battle between the Titanic nature (the dense, instinctual, earthbound side of embodiment: the body with its cravings, impulses, and pull toward material experience) and the Dionysian/Zagerus nature (the divine spark concealed within that embodiment) can be an experience that Krittika natives deal with in life. There could be temptations towards the sensory pleasures of life. Whether this desire arises from pride, sensuality, appetite, general indulgence, or attachment to status and possessions, all of them are not inherently evil. They arise naturally from incarnation itself. To inhabit a body is to experience desire; desire is the mechanism through which the material world perpetuates itself. However, those very temptations are what can deepen attachment to the matters of the physical world. If a Krittika native doesn’t learn to develop resistance to those bodily urges and desires, it’s easy to become blinded to their own divinity and the Titanic body (the dense, instinctual, earthbound side of embodiment) starts running the show. That’s why the moment Orpheus looked back at Eurydice (Ovid’s version of the story) was so important, Orpheus failure to successfully leave the underworld with his wife without turning back symbolized the soul attachment to the physical world. Eurydice being dragged back to the depths of the underworld is the soul being dragged into sensory distractions by the body. Krittika natives could deal with temptations (whatever it may be for them) of the flesh (Titanic body). Falling into such temptations can be a source of guilt and shame for a Krittika native, as I said that it’s a battle which they are more than likely trying to prevail by resistance. This resistance can come in the form of self-discipline, training the body to resist immediate gratification, and severe asceticism in extreme cases but denying the body of such desires and wants was viewed as a form of purification as well. Overall, there is always a willingness from spirit but the flesh is weak so strengthening identification with spirit becomes a priority.

Krittika, Thee Orphic Child

“ If properly understood, all of Krittika’s nature and functioning can be understood from above legend. Krittika relates to a sense of imminent danger, which leads to secrecy, seclusion and hiding as a result. It relates to care and nurturing of anything in its young, delicate state and this is reason why Chandr reaches its maximum exaltation in second Pada of this Nakshatra. “ - Prash Trivedi

Prash Trivedi mentions of secrecy, seclusion, hiding of something delicate because of imminent danger is a reference to the story of the Hindu god Karttikeya. He was essentially born (a son of Shiva) for the specific purpose of defeating demons, the most formidable of whom was Tarakasura (only a son of Shiva could defeat him, which Karttikeya was a son of Shiva). When the demons learned of a prophecy that Karttikeya would be their destroyer, they sought to prevent his birth and rise. To protect him, the devas hid the child in forest Saravana. There, he was nurtured and raised by the six Krittikas, celestial mothers associated with the Pleiades star cluster. Each Krittika cared for him so that he could survive and grow, and Karttikeya developed six heads to allow all six foster mothers to nurse him simultaneously. After he has matured, he leaves to go fulfill his purpose. The six Krittikas were distraught from his departure because of how much they cared for him but away Karttikeya went. I’m sharing the tale of Karttikeya today because I find it to be reminiscent of the tale of the Greek god Dionysus, who has a similar upbringing, minus defeating a demon but the threatening “demons” were around him as well.

In Euripides’ Bacchae and Pseudo-Apollodorus’ Bibliotheca, Dionysus is born from Zeus’s thigh after his mortal mother, Semele, is struck by lightening while pregnant. Zeus saves the child by sewing him into his thigh until ready for birth. When presented on Olympus, Hera rejects him, so Zeus creates a phantom substitute and hides Dionysus in secret. Zeus then entrusts infant Dionysus to Hermes, who places him with his aunt Ino and her husband Athamas. Hera, hostile to all of Zeus’s illegitimate children, drives Athamas mad, causing him to kill their children but Dionysus did manage to escape after being transformed into a baby goat and is raised safely by the nymphs of mount Nysa. As you can see from the early life of Dionysus, themes of imminent danger and needing to be hidden from said imminent danger appear in Dionysus’s life just as it did for Kartikeya. However, Dionysus is actually a second incarnation. His first incarnation was as Zagreus (an Orphic god of rebirth, reincarnation, life and death), also called Διονυσος Θχονιος (Dionysos Khthonios), meaning “subterranean”, highlighting his underworld connection. Zagreus is one of the central figures in the Orphic mysteries, which based on what I’ve researched (plus the pieces I could mentally put together), the focus of the Orphic Mysteries are on the purification of the soul so that it could be liberated from the cycle of reincarnation. Dionysus and Zagreus are essentially the same entity, with Zagerus as the older form of Dionysus. His mother as Zagerus was Persephone and Zeus (appearing as a dragon but it’s a wingless dragon, so a large serpent to mate with her). Zagreus faced his own dangers, which explains the cautionary measures taken during his later life as Dionysus.

Interlude notes: This myth can be credited for the origin story of mankind from the Orphic perspective. Humanity is said to have been formed from the ashes of the Titans, whose remains gave rise to the human body, that is also believed to be a prison for the soul. Yet because the Titans had consumed Zagerus, a divine esscene was also transmitted to humanity, making up their soul. As a result, humans were believed to possess a dualistic nature that were clashing with each other.

In the Dionysiaca (by Nonnus) and Exhortation to the Greeks (by Clement), Zagerus had climbed the throne of Zeus, allowed access to thunderbolts and lightening. Zeus had chosen Zagerus to be heir to the throne, which it’s why Zagerus could be on the throne to began with. Hera didn’t like the idea of an illegitimate child of Zeus being bestowed anything (Hera just generally weren’t fond of any of them. She didn’t need much of a reason besides their existence), especially as grand as heir to the throne. She stirred jealousy within the Titans towards Zagerus, which lead them to attack him but they did so through deceitful means. They covered their faces with chalk, and attempted to lured Zagerus with toys that would ignite intrigue within a curious adolescent. Clement explained, how these toys were the knuckle-bone, the ball, the spinning-top, apples, wheel, mirror. This mirror had proven to be successful because it got the attention of infant Zagerus for him to step away from the area he was (the Kouretes were said to be surrounding him, as they kept him safe from Hera and also were teaching him various skills in secret), to them and that’s when these Titans attacked him. However, Zagerus was said to have shapeshifted into various forms as he put up a fight against the Titans but his efforts couldn’t save him from his fate. The last form he took before succumbing to the collective force of the Titans was a bull, which the titans used knives to tear into pieces. These pieces of Zagerus flesh were boiled for the purpose of the Titans consumption (or it could have been eaten raw as well) but Athena was able to salvage Zagerus heart (metaphor for the Soul in this context, since he’s going to later be reborn and Sun is significator of the soul according to Vedic Astrology) from being devoured by the Titans as they did the rest of his body. After Zeus found out what the Titans did to his son Zagerus, he burnt them with his thunderbolts. This salvaged heart of Zagerus is placed into a drink of woman named Semele, who thereafter its consumption became pregnant with the god Dionysus. This is a reason why Dionysus is also known as Διμητωρ, meaning twice born because Zagerus was born again as Dionysus. The subtle characteristics of Zagerus can be seen through Dionysus, specifically the last animal Zegerus changed into, the bull. Dionysus is called the horned god, sometimes depicted with the horn of a bull.

“Semele was kept for a more brilliant union, for already Zeus ruling on high intended to make a new Dionysos grow up, a bullshaped copy of the older Dionysos; since he thought with regret of the illfated Zagreus“ - Dionysiaca by Nonnus

According to Brihat Parasara Hora Sastra and Phaladeepika, Moon signifies the mind and tranquility of the mind. For the Moon to function properly, it requires a stable and secure environment. As Manas (one of the four faculties of the mind and specifically the sensory mind), the Moon is constantly receiving and processing stimuli from the external world through the senses. Without stability, this continuous influx of sensory input (especially if it’s negative) can overwhelm the mind and disrupt inner equilibrium. This requirement of the Moon explains why it exalts in Taurus, reaching deepest exaltation at three degrees of Taurus, which falls in Krittika. Taurus provides continuity, material sufficiency, and reliability, allowing the sensory mind to remain grounded. An environment rich in essential resources creates conditions in which the mind can remain at ease, as it is no longer operating in a state of survival. In such circumstances, the Moon has access to the support necessary to maintain tranquility. The Moon being in Krittika nakshatra further emphasizes this through the myths of Karttikeya and Dionysus, both infants of divine origins, whom were removed from a life threatening circumstances and placed into environments that were supportive and nourishing. In both cases, the presence of multiple foster mothers (which Karttikeya had grown six heads so each of the six Krittikas could feed him simultaneously, showing how he receives nourishment from multiple directions) devoted to the care of a single child shows the measures taken to ensure their survival, protection and proper development. Such intervention allowed them to mature without obstruction and ultimately be able to reach their full potential as intended. This situation that Karttikeya and Dionysus had to face as young children is a reason for Prash Trivedi above statement on Krittika relating to a sense of imminent danger because there was people who wanted to harm these children before they could grow into an full grown adult. The danger of children that’s prevalent in Krittika is also a reason I believe the protection of children is also associated with Krittika and that’s where the nourishing quality of Krittika comes forward as well.

The Nectar of Immortality: Soma | Mrigashira Nakshatra

According to the Sanskrit-English Dictionary by Monier-williams, Monier, Sir, Soma means “distill”, “extract”, “sprinkle” (also used in context with various words such as संसु suṣvi and सुत् Sut, which is basically extracting juice/or soma as an offering to a deity) , these words referring to the methods by which the liquid is obtained from the Soma plant (which Vic Dicara believes this plant to be called soma-vallī. A plant that’s currently extinct). The liquid from this plant was said to been used to make a drink, referred to as Amrita (which means “not death” and to not die is to be immortal, to be deathless), which provided immortality (one of the reasons it’s referred to as the nectar/elixr of immortality) and all sorts of benefits, such as energy, strength, vitality, youthfulness. to the consumer. Soma is a deity that is associated with Mrigashira. Soma is both a deity and this sacred plant (more so a personified, divine form) Through Soma, the devas are sustained, empowered, and elevated beyond ordinary limits, which is why Indra is often depicted as consuming it in excess to amplify his power (whose noted to be an excessive drinker of Soma). Just as Soma’s relationship to Indra was portrayed in stories, there could also be an Indra like figure in the life of a Mrigahsira native that is dependent on them for strength (more accurately would be energy) as well.

Notes on top of notes: The creator of the character Popeye was E. C. Segar, who has his Sun in Jyestha (Indra is the primary deity associated with Jyestha) Interestingly, the metal iron is associated with Mars (significator for our strength and energy), spinach is said to be a good source for Iron (though other vegetables can provide even more). I mention spinach because the character Popeye eats it. Consuming spinach regularly can help strengthen Mars (and Moon as well). I’m not surprised spinach would be portrayed as a source that provided strength to this character (created by a Jyestha native).

“In the beginning of the Kalpa, as Brahmá purposed to create a son, who should be like himself, a youth of a purple complexion appeared, crying with a low cry, and running about Brahmá, when he beheld him thus afflicted, said to him, "Why dost thou weep?" "Give me a name," replied the boy. "Rudra be thy name," rejoined the great father of all creatures” - Vishnu Purana

“Mūla is fearsome and destroys us. But when we respect the function of destruction as a necessary stage prior to a new creation, we receive auspicious and beneficial energy from Mūla.” - Vic Dicara

Notes: The Hindu goddess Nirrti embodies the duality of nature of destruction. She appears in one form as an unattractive, fearsome, and terrifying presence, representing dissolution that is resisted and experienced as suffering. In her other expression, she is described as a beautiful woman with a golden complexion and golden blond hair, reflecting destruction that is understood and accepted as a necessary stage preceding renewal. Depending on how you view the things which are associated with her, will determine which form she’ll appear to you as.

“ The native will be influenced in appearance, disposition etc. by the strongest planet or the ascendant lord or the Navamsa ascendant lord. “ - Brihat Parasara Hora Sastra

[wovenpixieglass]

B.V. Raman has a similar, if not exact a sentiment as Brihat Parasara Hora Sastra above. Just to note, if you’re going to read B.V. Raman’s books, he does use a completely different ayanamsa than Brihat Parasara Hora Sastra but I personally read it in context to the ayanamsa I’m using, which is the same as Brihat Parasara Hora Sastra.

“If at a birth Rahu occupy the Lagna, the person concerned will have a short life, possess wealth and strength, and will suffer from diseases in the higher limbs of his body (head, face, etc). “ - Phaladeepika

Note - A person is not guaranteed to perfectly match the textbook physical description of any single planet, because multiple planetary influences can modify and reshape the appearance. Venus on the Ascendant is said to bless the native with a “healthy and beautiful” physique according to Phaladeepika. However, if Mars is added to the Ascendant, it can introduce scarring or an injury to this “healthy and beautiful” physique. At the same time, Mars emphasizes the waist, as it is described as having a lean or thin waist. If Mars is removed and replaced with Mercury, the “healthy and beautiful” physique becomes more symmetrical, since Phaladeepika describes Mercury as having proportionate limbs. This symmetry can further enhance beauty, as Brihat Parasara Hora Sastra describes Mercury as having an attractive physique. If the Moon (fluctuating weight) or Jupiter is added to the equation, they can contribute to roundness or fleshiness to the physique, as Phaladeepika describes both as having round bodies. The Moon, in particular, can also enhance beauty due to it having “auspicious looks”. Nodal influences, on the other hand, can seem quite confusing but Tropical-Vedic Astrologer Vic Dicara had commented (Rahu & Ketu in the twelves houses video) on how Ketu in the 1st can mean imperfect body or special body, so someone can have either but it will be unique. This means Ketu’s influence can cause this “healthy and beautiful” physique to be unique/or different than the usual. This is just an example of how multiple influences can alter the description of the appearance.

Libra’s exaltation (Saturn ♄ in Libra) and debilitation (Sun ☉ in Libra), the clue to a successful relationship?! 🙊

I agree a lot with anonymous, Saturn exaltation in Libra, contrasted with the Sun’s debilitation in the same sign shows the necessity of diminishing excessive emphasis on the self in order for a relationship to be successful and enduring. In the Puranas, it is written that Surya’s wife, Sanjna, grew unhappy in her marriage to Surya (the personification of the Sun). As a result, she created a clone of herself named Chhaya (shadow) as a substitute and left the relationship due to the intense heat and light that emanated from him. However, Surya hadn’t noticed that Sanjna left and a shadow had filled in her place until much later on. The Sun is inherently individualistic. As a self-luminous graha, it derives power solely from itself and does not require reflection or reciprocity to affirm its existence. This is why its exaltation in Aries makes complete sense. The word Aja is associated with Aries, literally refers to a goat, but it also means “unborn”. The state of being unborn is a soul prior to incarnating in a body. The Sun, as the significator of the soul, embodies this “unborn” state (this self-sustaining force of life). Which means the Sun works at its best when it can prioritize the self in its entirety. The Sun specifically reaches the height of exaltation at 10 degrees (In numerology, the number 10 equals to the number 1, which is associated with the Sun) of Aries, which is in the nakshatra of Ashwini, whom shakti is shidhra vyapani and it’s the power to quickly reach things. Ashwini is the energy that propels us forward, carrying the self through its own will and fully into the next incarnation (launching the beginning of our new life).

In Libra, the Sun’s vitality diminishes because the focus is being redirected toward another, as partnership requires a portion of its attention to be shared rather than focused entirely on oneself. This redirection can be constructive or destructive depending on how it is handled. When disproportionate focus is placed on the self, it invites ego clashes and a resistance to compromise, both of which undermine relational harmony. On the other hand, placing excessive focus on the other person while abandoning oneself is equally detrimental. Such imbalance can lead to the gradual deterioration of the relationship, either because it is being neglected by both parties or because it becomes one sided, sustained by only one person in a dynamic that inherently requires mutual participation. Libra, symbolized by the scales, which are often illustrated as balance, is particularly sensitive to unequal distribution of effort. If weight placed on either side is uneven, the relationship cannot remain stable. For a partnership to thrive, there must be a mutual and consistent investment of effort from both individuals. Libra being exalted in Saturn shows how shared responsibility, a mutual and equitable distribution of effort and time, objective and fair judgment are a few key components for sustaining balance and longevity within relationships.

In many ways, Saturn-ruled nakshatras mirror these qualities, placing an emphasis on duty, sustained effort, humility, patience, and perseverance. Partnerships for them are approached with a sense of obligation and commitment rather than the relationship being centered around their own needs and identity. An issue can arise of them not feeling appreciated for their efforts put in these partnerships (especially if it’s just them putting in the work), seemingly being taken for granted, so later in life they can become cautious on who they commit themselves to (for those who become aware of that). On the other hand, Sun-ruled nakshatras (especially men) should be mindful of becoming neglectful in their partnerships. Like Surya, who continued his focus on his role as the Sun (centered focus), while his wife had been distanced herself from him, they may sometimes fail to notice when their partner has become withdrawn/distant/or changed (a shadow of their former self). If Surya had truly seen his wife’s discomfort, he would have recognized how much she was managing despite being overwhelmed by him. The Sun can illuminate our inner path, providing a strong sense of purpose and direction. However, when its energy is inflated by ego, its heat can scorch, pushing others away and creating experiences of isolation. That’s why Surya sought Vishwakarma (Sanjna’s father), so he could reduce his radiance so he can successfully reunite with his wife (notice, his light didn’t get snuff out entirely but softened. Be cautious of those who attempt to snuff it out entirely).

Notes: One of the main reasons Saturn reaches the height of its exaltation at 10 degrees of Libra, which falls in Swati nakshatra, is because Shani promised to spare the devotees of Hanuman, the son of Vayu, from his harsher effects. Why? Because Hanuman saved him from his imprisonment by King Ravana. This is why praying to Hanuman can be beneficial as it dwindles the harsh effects of Saturn. Generally, Hanuman has traits which align well with what Saturn would like in the first place. Here are a few of the characteristics of Hanuman 🐒 power (he is practically invincible with the amount of power he has) without ego (he shows humility and humbleness), strength guided by devotion (towards Rama) and action rooted in selfless service (accordance to Rama).

Note - A person is not guaranteed to perfectly match the textbook physical description of any single planet, because multiple planetary influences can modify and reshape the appearance. Venus on the Ascendant is said to bless the native with a “healthy and beautiful” physique according to Phaladeepika. However, if Mars is added to the Ascendant, it can introduce scarring or an injury to this “healthy and beautiful” physique. At the same time, Mars emphasizes the waist, as it is described as having a lean or thin waist. If Mars is removed and replaced with Mercury, the “healthy and beautiful” physique becomes more symmetrical, since Phaladeepika describes Mercury as having proportionate limbs. This symmetry can further enhance beauty, as Brihat Parasara Hora Sastra describes Mercury as having an attractive physique. If the Moon (fluctuating weight) or Jupiter is added to the equation, they can contribute to roundness or fleshiness to the physique, as Phaladeepika describes both as having round bodies. The Moon, in particular, can also enhance beauty due to it having “auspicious looks”. Nodal influences, on the other hand, can seem quite confusing but Tropical-Vedic Astrologer Vic Dicara had commented (Rahu & Ketu in the twelves houses video) on how Ketu in the 1st can mean imperfect body or special body, so someone can have either but it will be unique. This means Ketu’s influence can cause this “healthy and beautiful” physique to be unique/or different than the usual. This is just an example of how multiple influences can alter the description of the appearance.

Āya is the Sanskrit name for the eleventh house, it means gain and income. Āya is a reason why the eleventh house is known as a house of gains (material gain), yet there is also a Vyaya (loss, expenditure) aspect to it, which is illustrated in the symbolism of Aquarius. The water bearer holds a large vessel filled with an abundance of water but the vessel is open, and the water pours outward in a continuous flow. The outward movement represents natural expenditure, a giving away of resources, energy or blessings. This means that Aquarius natives can accumulate lots of material gain and can either be generous with this gain they’ve accumulated or something happens where they have to share this gain. According to the Manasara, “The fruit which is auspicious becomes defective (i.e., inauspicious) when the āya is less (than the vyaya), that is when the vyaya is greater (pūjya); but there is no defect if it (the vyaya) be equal (to the āya)”, so as long as the Āya is greater or equal to the vyaya then it sharing is fine but if it’s just Āya absent of Vyaya then it can turn into a case of hoarding or just Vyaya then it’s too much loss. However, as I mentioned before, Aquarius is illustrated with the water bearer holding an open/or broken vessel so they attract the abundance/have the abundance to share.

P.S. I’m not a professional or doctor so please do not see me as one. Do people ask things from you often? and do you just give these resources out? The Aquarius I’ve known in my life were quite generous with their resources, some were too generous. Just some inquisitive inquires from a pixie ✨

Makara, the vāhana of Varuna | Shatabhisha

The deity commonly associated to shatabhisha is Varuna, lord of the oceans, sea, water, sky, maya (which he used for the purpose of rta) and also one of the guardians of rta (cosmic, moral law and order). He is depicted riding a makara, which is a sea monster but is illustrated as a crocodile like creature with characteristics of others animals. Interestingly, according to the “Five Years Of Theosophy”, Ma is equivalent to five (Chaldean and Pythagorean numerology equates M to number 4 and A to number 1, so altogether it would be number 5) and Kara means hand. Building on this, the Theosophists (which are various contributors, H.P. Blavatsky, Mohini M. Chatterji, Damodar K. Mavalankar, and T. Subba Row to name a few) refer to the Sanskrit word trī-bhujam for triangle, where “tri” means three and “bhujam” means a side, and treat “bhujam” and “karam” as symbolically interchangeable. Since the Chaldean and Pythagorean numerology system assigns the value five to “Ma”, they form the term ma-karam by combining “Ma” with “kara”, yielding a word meant to represent a five-sided figure (a pentagon).

As an extension of this, they argue further that because Makaram (a pentagon) is also the tenth sign and the Sanskrit term dasadisa refers to the ten “faces” or directions (north, south, west, east, northeast, southeast, northwest, southwest, up and down) of the universe, the sign (Capricorn) symbolically represents the structures of the cosmos. If those “faces” are understood as pentagonal (based on their interpretation of ma-karam) and if the universe is assumed to be symmetrically formed then it’s shape would correspond to a dodecahedron (a three dimensional shape made up of twelve pentagonal faces), the same geometric model Plato said the Demiurge used when constructing the material world. Now, that being said the makara is the vāhana of Varuna. A vāhana is the symbolic vehicle or mount of a deity in the Hindu pantheon, it represented the deity’s power, an extension of their domain, qualities and the type of energy they have mastery/control over. Varuna’s being the makara implies mastery over these cosmic structures or the material world, which is such a nod back to his title as the previous supreme ruler, before Indra became the supreme ruler but also to the sign of Capricorn because Makara is the name used for Capricorn in Sanskrit and it’s Aquarius that comes afterwards. The 11th house is the house of fulfillment of our desires (which comes from the 3rd house), which the nakshatra Varuna is associated with sits at the heart of Aquarius (the 11th sign).

Neville Goddard has his Sun and Ketu in Shatabhisha. He is known for teaching and writing about how our consciousness has this powerful influence over reality, meaning that people have an innate power to shape the world as they choose, either knowingly or unknowingly. That we are god and encouraged that we operate as so, through the means of consciousness. Much of his work forms the basis of the Law of Assumption, and many who practice Law of Assumption have likely encountered Neville Goddard’s teachings. Most of his focus is on the fulfillment of one’s desires by living in the wish fulfilled, this info he gathered from his guru, the Ethiopian Abdullah. I believe that through his relationship with Abdullah, Neville was able to access the past-life abilities associated with his Ketu in Shatabhisha and share that knowledge with a broader audience (which based on Neville shared testimonies of those who attended his lectures, this knowledge has changed their life entirely and were also able to obtain mastery).

The late, wild-life conservationist Steve Irwin also has his Sun in Shatabhisha (I’m sharing him here to show how makara can show up in other ways as well). Though he worked with a wide variety of animals, he felt a special gravitation toward crocodiles, dedicating much of his life to protecting them from danger and misunderstanding. His interest began very young, as he was introduced to reptiles, crocodiles and other similar animals early on because his father was a wildlife conservationist, keeper of their family’s reptile park, and a herpetologist (someome who studies reptiles and amphibians). Steve grew up to be known in the mainstream as “The Crocodile Hunter”, but his true focus was on conservation, rescue and education rather than hunting. This strong connection with crocodiles is an example of how the energy of Shatabisha, symbolized by Varuna’s makara, can appear in a native’s life as well (a literal manifestation in Steve Irwin’s life).

Hello @thehiddenoctave I just finished watching the livestream on the Alchemical Symbols of Planets and what you said about Venus stood out to me (as it did with others on here as well). You said how beauty is light and how Venus can start beautiful but later on become ugly. I’m guessing the beauty comes initially because of Venus glyph having Sun on top then the cross at the bottom, and Sun is light. It wouldn’t be wrong for me to claim that Sun is beauty because it’s a self-luminous light that cannot be extinguished (eclipsed, yes, but the light is still there, just distorted). I also looked into the Sun’s kabbalistic significance (because you were referencing the kabbalistic tree on the livestream a bit) and it corresponds to Tiphereth, which is suppose to be associated with beauty, balance and harmony. Spirit is light and since the Sun signifies the soul, spirit itself can be interpreted as beauty by virtue of its luminosity. Psyche is the Greek word for soul and according to Greek mythology, she was said to possess a beauty that rivaled that of Aphrodite (whom can be identified as Venus, her ancient Roman equivalent), even some going as far to say her beauty exceeded it (inspiring envy and jealousy from the goddess). Which is interesting to see the relationship that Venus and Sun has to beauty (though I’m glad that you included the malefic nature of the Sun as well and its effects on appearance too). Thank you for giving my mind something to ponder on. Excellent work and analysis skills by the way. Keep at it 🫰

Vedic astro observations (mini edition)

- Venus in Krittika natives could find themselves in relationships that begin in secrecy, not out of shame or deception (though there are possibilities of there being a third-party situation), but because the bond is still in its unripe or undeveloped stage. In the early phases, the relationship is delicate. It’s easily disturbed by outside interference, opinions, or premature exposure. Secrecy, therefore, becomes a protective layer, a way to shield the connection while it undergoes the slow purification that Krittika requires (Kartikeya was raised in secret as a means of protection, while he matured under the care of the seven Krittikas). During this maturation process, the relationship goes through Krittika’s dahana shakti (power to burn and purify) influence. This process isn’t explosive, it’s developmental. As the connection deepens, the unrefined layers of each person, their lingering issues, inconsistencies, or immature relational habits, will naturally begin to be exposed and be given an opportunity to be addressed. This is a must for every relationship to undergo this purification cycle for these natives. It’s a reason why there are some relationships that will elevate under this Venus, becoming cleaner, clearer, more honest and more nourishing. Others will burn out before they ever have the chance to stabilize (emotionally, sexually or physically). This is why Venus in Krittika natives can appear externally to move through multiple relationships. In reality, these are not impulsive attempts at love but repeated processes of refinement. Only relationships capable of withstanding the heat of purification will endure (Svaha was the only person to be able to withstand Agni’s intense heat. Though, Agni has had his fair share of consorts, Svaha ended up being Agni’s wife at the end of the day!). Another element in this process is the criticism the native’s relationships may attract. This criticism can extend to friends, family, or outsiders in general becoming very judgmental, picking apart the partnership or urging for its end before it could really properly began (I’m thinking of how Kartikeya’s, a figure associated with this nakshatra, life was threatened at such a young age. However, there’s also a figure, similar as Kartikeya, whose life actually did come to an end but I won’t be describing the brutality of that event at this moment). As I mentioned above, a third party may be involved (it doesn’t always have to be romantically), intensifying the pressure on the relationship. This external scrutiny is yet another reason secrecy can arise.

- Venus in Mula natives could find themselves attracting relationships that dig deep, sometimes uncomfortably so into buried wounds, unresolved traumas, and residues from the recent past (possibly past life as well). In some cases, this Venus may attract potential partners who have had their own set of traumatic experiences from the past and the connection itself can be acting as a trigger for things neither partner fully understands as of yet. The defining feature of these relationships is that nothing remains hidden for long, at all! The chaos that appears in these relationships is a mirror of what was already there, lurking beneath the surface. Things you thought were behind you suddenly show up in unavoidable ways, and the dynamics of the relationship tend to pull these buried patterns to the light. It can feel like history repeating itself, or like old trauma is replaying in a new context. Mula’s rulership by Ketu links it directly past life karmas. Its symbol, the reticulated roots of a tree, showing how deeply entangled these issues can be and the depths they’ve been buried, and it’s barhana shakti (power to ruin and destroy) who ensures that any structure already weak or unstable is brought to collapse so that something brand new can arise, though any faulty structures are inevitably destroyed. This can show up as your whole idea of the person or the connection falling apart and everything real, good or bad, all rising up. Stuff you ignored, didn’t care to notice, or thought you’d moved past becomes loud and obvious. Your partner’s unresolved wounds, your buried fears, old hurts that were pushed down, all of it comes out because Mula isn’t trying to maintain this false sense of security but trying to get to the root. Once that root is exposed, the bond either breaks apart so the old damage can be cleared out of it forces both people to face what’s been poisoning the relationship from underneath. Mula brings the destruction that has to happen before anything new and healthier has the opportunity to be built. Through these experiences, however, this venus can develop this kind of relational x-ray vision. A sixth sense for potential instability, hidden wounds and structural weaknesses. They can start to see through people, sensing fractures long before they show in partnerships. After enough dismantling cycles, this can definitely become a strength.

- Ascendant in Mrigashira natives could possess a fidgety disposition. It’s symbolized by the head of a deer, a deer is constantly scanning its environment for potential threats. It’s vigilant, cautious and sensitive to subtle changes around it. This alertness comes from its status as a prey animal, which requires it to maintain heightened awareness of its surroundings to survive. Ascendant represents our form in the physical, being the body we operate on earth for the meantime. This alertness and sensitivity can manifest as restlessness in the physical body.

nakshatra tarabala

note: to calculate tarabala, you must count (inclusively) how far away a nakshatra is from any given nakshatra; for instance, magha is nine away from bharani — the ninth tarabala aspect is known as atimitra tara, akin to a best friend, the most beloved. after nine, the tenth nakshatra gets counted as one, and so on. in this manner, mula and ashwini are also considered atimitra to bharani and the other two vimshottari venus-ruled nakshatras.

the traditional planetary friendships and enemies are used in relation to the the twelve rashis or zodiac signs, and do not coincide with tarabala aspects. for instance, the sun-ruled nakshatras consider the venus nakshatras as atimitra, best friends, and sun nakshatras are sampat (providing ease and enrichment) to the venus nakshatras, making it a mutually beneficial relationship. whereas traditionally, sun and venus are considered enemy planets. tarabala can be used to look at the interplay & dynamics between nakshatras in a birth chart or in synastry

we can see if planets at birth or in transit will give positive or challenging results based on their tarabala (in reference to the moon's nakshatra); for example, planets in sampat tara (the 2nd, 11th and 20th nakshatra from the moon) will considerably amplify results delivered by said planet. the same concept applies to planets in transits as well as the other eight types of tarabala (star strength)

(in the following list '1' refers to the same nakshatra and the two nakshatras which trine it, '2' refers to the following nakshatra and the nakshatras that trine it, '3' refers to the third nakshatra away and its trine nakshatras, and so on and so forth. for venus nakshatras, the second nakshatra away (sampat tara) will be a sun-ruled nakshatra, for mars it will be rahu, etc)

the nine tarabala categories

┈ ┈ ┈ ┈ ୨♡୧ ┈ ┈ ┈ ┈ ┈

(1) janma tara; co-born, of the same kind, quality, nature. nakshatras which trine your janma (birth) nakshatra will give long lasting results as they are bound to you by birth

competition & rivalry may be present due to inherent similarities between these nakshatras

positive tarabala (2, 4, 6, 8, 9 nakshatras away)

(2) sampat tara; nakshatras of this tara category bring affluence, enjoyment, prosperity, wealth, good fortune to the original nakshatra; one meaning of sampat is 'the act of coming together'

(4) kshema tara; nakshatras of this category provide comfort, security, relief, protection; results here can be sudden/unexpected yet generally beneficial

(6) sādhak tara; progress, achievement or attainment of one's goals; worship, adoration. planets here support the fulfillment of one's goals & desires through willful consistently applied effort

(8) mitra tara; a friend, ally, companion to the original nakshatra

(9) paramitra or atimitra tara; best friend. the prefix para means supreme, highest or absolute & the prefix ati means very, extremely, exceedingly or beyond

atimitra = an extremely good friend or beyond friendship, a lover

challenging tarabala (3, 5, 7 nakshatras away)

(3) vipat tara; draining resources, spending, adversity, obstacles; vipat also means 'to be divided or separated'

(5) pratyak tara; moving backwards or in the opposite direction; against or contrary to - may seem attractive or promising initially

(7) naidhana tara; related to the 8th house of death, endings, destruction, transformation; there may be sudden and traumatic endings to the things signified by planets in this tara category
