Time is said to be the administering tool of the Divine. For, it serves as a measure of the varying dynamics of energy-flux excited by nature every moment.
Be it known that all units of time in the Indian frame — both on micro and macro terms — are scaled either in correspondence with relative motion of the Sun and Moon, or the period motion of astronomical referral point of significance. It is not just a measure of space as would apply to the concept of time in popular use.
Remember, the planetary bodies are not to be seen just as physical entities moving in the cosmos. They are rather the markers identified with energy stream flowing through a region with a particular planet in focus. In a way, they, as divine agents, are energy providers operating from the front. And these planetary bodies are ever on the move following their respective trajectories at their own exclusive speed. Simultaneously, they also maintain relativity amongst them all through their run, as if they would be a family moving in perfect coordination with each other. The earth, where we are stationed, does also keep spinning at a great speed. As a consequence, energy-flux made available to earth by nature every moment keeps varying widely. And, time being a co-runner with these divine energy-balls, would give a measure of the changing pattern of nature-driven energy.
Here again, it needs to be remembered that nature-driven energy-mix holds the key to all aspects of our dynamic existence — both seen and unseen sides. Evidently then, any change in the status of nature-driven energies, its echoes shall reverberate all across influencing all aspects of our life cycle.
It is interesting to note here that the unlike the Gregorian calendar, which is premised on fixed abstract coordinates, the Indian calendar system’s baseline too is dynamic. For, it is set to the astronomical referral points, which again are ever on the run. As a consequence, the Indian calendar’s dates remain off the Gregorian calendar’s dates, ranging from 10 to 20 days in a year. This way, the Indian calendar system remains in perfect sync with nature’s varying dynamics. It is therefore, no surprise that our calendar system is able to encompass our weather cycle as well with a fair amount of precision.
Now, coming to the life cycle of human beings, remember, every being marked with a solid body-frame in apparent terms, remains at the sub-atomic level, nothing but a web of pulsating energy patterns, all sourced to nature. They are so interwoven into an inter-dependent mechanism that no individual component has a reality, independent of totality, included in which is the observer. Naturally then, any reverberations in the cosmos has to have its related bearing on the energy construct of a being, and thereby their run of life.
Also remember that time, frames the basis on which varying dynamics of nature’s energy orchestra is measured. For, in the first place, time itself came into play when the creation chain was set into motion, and has been marching ahead unabated ever since. Second, there remains continuum all through the run of time. What exists at the moment is nothing but culmination of what got initiated earlier, and the seed planted in the present moment on which the future course is premised. The run of time, thus, keeps in store a track record of the Karmic-cycle which drives through our ongoing life.
This is the platform on which Astrology as a discipline is premised. In this scheme of things, an astrological chart is nothing but energy mapping of the cosmos at particular point of time – be it the moment one is born, or when a specific question is taken up for consideration. And that presents a tentative picture of how our ongoing life would be programmed, and with a fair amount of precision.
This is not to suggest that we are fully bound by the implications of varying dynamics of planetary radiations. They do, however, present a general trend of how inherently our minds are individually framed; the desire trends we nurse; and the habits and attitudes we carry. And that defines how we would normally respond to the varying energy-dynamics of nature. That, however, can be very well redefined through conscious efforts. For, we are also endowed with power of freewill, which grants us with the privilege to guide our actions by choice and discrimination. Astrology, could thus, prove a very effective diagnostic tool for human resource development.
