Astroturf | As you sow, so you reap

“Last two years have been nerve-wracking. Business has gone for a toss. Those who were supportive earlier, are getting distanced. Please tell me when does destiny indicators turn favourable? Do I need to do any puja or wear some gemstone to overcome my problem faster.” Someone came asking in a state of desperation.

Well, destiny is a product of your own doing and undoing. When faced with challenges, and especially in the event of failures, rather than looking at our own fault lines, we feel it convenient to shift the blame on the call of destiny.  Three factors hold the key to our destiny indications — Kala (overall environmental condition), Patra (personality traits), and Samaya (the time line indicative of good or bad events due in life). The former two drive the third. The overall environmental condition is beyond our control, which will get over with time, such as the ongoing pandemic. Nobody could be spared of its impact. We shall have to intelligently and bravely face it, till it wanes out. Personality traits are though a reflection of our Karmic carryover from the past, but they can be suitably modified. Provided, you consciously look within, identity and acknowledge your fault lines and then try to address them. You were not mindful about working upon your personality traits, and so you became a victim of your own making.

“Sir, I was the same person when I was doing well, only the time has changed. Then, how do you hold me responsible for my failures?” The man countered. Well, when you begin, you move carefully. You weigh the options in hand conscientiously and try not to rough shoulders with others. But as you taste success, ego comes into play, when you don’t remain alert about conducting mindfully. Your inherent habit tendencies begin to play out involuntarily. Unmindfully, you begin making indiscrete and ill-timed moves, and respond to external promptings on instinctive judgment. Over a period of time, as the load of your self-undoing acts become heavy, it makes you due for suffering. It is a result of your own doing and so can’t blame time. Sometime back while looking at someone’s chart, I was afraid that he may go through a bad spell of health as transit Saturn was placed adverse to his natal Sun (the health indicator). But nothing as such happened. Instead his spiritual endeavour has begun bearing fruits.

Let us now have a look at the astrological pointers to his personality traits. Born in Sagittarius lagna, which by itself is enough to mean that he is tactless, undiplomatic and known for his ill-timed and indiscrete statements. That often hurts others. 8th lord Moon in lagna makes him habitually suspicious of others. The Sun, Moon, Mars and Rahu are placed adverse to each other. It, in the first place indicates that he is temperamental, moody, irritable, rash, impulsive, quarrelsome, argumentative and impatient. Second, he is susceptible to rough shoulders with others, if things don’t move on expected lines, and invite conflicts. He, thus, comes under stress, when he may lose his sense or reasons and order, temporarily though. Third, he may unnecessarily misdirect his energies towards unproductive ends. If all that would not be enough, Saturn placed adverse to Mercury makes him an obstinate guy with a rigid one track mind, and overcritical of others. He, thus, is wanting in interpersonal relationship skills, which doesn’t let him get along well with those around, and with obvious consequences. In terms of timing, his progressed lagna became adverse to natal Mars at the end of 52 years, which made him due for facing a challenging situation. Career indicating progressed meridian became adverse to Uranus, which made him due for unexpected and sudden turn of events of unfavourable nature. Transit Saturn came over his natal Moon and opposite Sun in January 2022. As Saturn moved further and became adverse to natal Mars and headless Ketu, the worst was to follow. See, how all the planets that hold the key to his negative habit tendencies cobbled up to cause adversity. If all that was not enough, pandemic broke, which further multiplied his problems.

But all said and done, have patience, work upon yourself, and in a year’s time, you are expected to recover your lost ground. In so far as remedial measure is concerned, you need to appreciate that you yourself can solve the problems of mind genesis, which is applicable in your case.  No external aid can enter your mind space to make necessary correction.
