Horary Astrology or Prasna Astrology, also spelled as Prashna Astrology, is an amazing mixture of ancient and modern Vedic predicting techniques. This form of astrology is also known as ‘Prasna Shastra’ (Sanskrit, Prasna means question), since it involves a person asking a specific question about any aspect of his or her life.

Rahu and Ketu known as the ‘Snake Planets’ are not actually planets but are nodes of the Moon. These shadow planets don’t have Houses in the Zodiac but they acquire power from the House where they occupy.

Unlike other planets, Rahu and Ketu travel in a counter-clockwise direction over the natal charts spending around one and a half years in each of the signs. This year, they are changing signs or making a transit, commencing on June 6, 2011. Rahu is shifting from Sagittarius into Scorpio, while Ketu is moving from Gemini into Taurus where they will remain for the next 18 months.

Your dead ancestors are governing your destiny. The greatest contribution of India to the world is her spiritual science. No civilization, however old it is, has ever attained the level of sophistication reached by the yogis and siddhas of India. The yogis and siddhas paid equal attention to the bodily existence while one is alive and also the disembodied existence after one dies. They also had knowledge of soul travel while still in embodiment. Sometimes they left their body in a safe place in a cave and entered another body. At other times they turned the body into light and disappeared. Once having disappeared they could momentarily assume a human body like an old man or a boy and return to the earth plane for a few hours visit. There are many places in Southern India, like Thiruvanamallai, Koli Hills and Kutralam where these siddhas hang out in the subtle forms. If you are destined to meet them at those places they will show up and bless you.

Siddhas have a special relationship with the earth plane. They are constantly involved in making the earth plane a better place for the souls who come to inhabit the earth. The siddhas are the source for medicine, astrology, alchemy, yoga, rituals for worshiping different deities for different purposes, etc. Siddhas emphasize that the most important element in human life is the destiny of the individual soul. Every soul has its own unique destiny. Every soul has its own biological and spiritual baggage attached to it. How you look, what diseases you will have are localized within the genes that the soul creates. But the soul lives simultaneously as spirit existence as well. In other words you have the biological existence defined by the material body as well as a spiritual existence defined by the invisible spirit. The soul living in the physical and non-physical existence governs your destiny.

According to the Vedic Astrology, the significance and energy of Moon determines the power of mind. We know that a disturbed mind cannot have peaceful thoughts and a positive mind can only enjoy the peaceful moments in life. So, it is necessary to identify the Moon’s Vexation (malefic) days, which are the days of distraction that affects your peace of mind.

Time of Troubles

It is believed that there are 3 days in particular that the Moon will affect you the most. They are referred to as the Chandra Ashtama days in which Moon is positioned 8 Houses away from your Moon Sign for 2 days, and one day of your ‘Janma Nakshatra’ or Birth Star. These days represent the time for troubles and you may be prone to become an ego manic due to the effect of Moon.

It is necessary to know about the 8th Moons and your day of power Birth Star days for resolving the issues of inconveniences during the period of Chandra Ashtama. It’s time to be cautious for deactivating the negative effects of Moon which concerns your power of mind!

On Chandra Ashtama days, a person’s mind is not in a balanced state to take correct decisions. Everyone needs to take more precaution and must be alert on these days. You can prevent many disputes, unpleasantness, tensions and a lot more misfortune during this period.

   Sun is the supreme source in the solar system that strengthens your life with good health, wealth, success and happiness in life. You can follow His lead and plan your year accordingly for successful accomplishments. This Sun transit which occurs on May 15th marks a valuable time to gain the blessings of Sun God for the complete enlightenment in life. It’s the ideal period to realize your opportunities for successful endeavors.

Power Up Your Life through Sun Transit

According to the golden saying, “Make Hay While the Sun Shines,” you have to take advantage of a brief and bright opportunity while it is still there. It is essential to understand the significance of Sun transit and act accordingly without wasting a single moment.

The Sun stays in each sign for a period of one month thereby powering or magnifying any characteristics of the house He is in. For everything there is a season. But Sun’s exceptional and all powerful divine nature can bless anyone at anytime with everything and anything.
