    Case Studies

    In the tradition of astrology we read horoscope from the ascendant and moon. Moon is very important planet in the horoscope because its emotion, We can say without emotion there is no meaning life. That’s the main reason vimsottari dashsa system always based on moon star (birth star).

    My intention to make case studies based nakshatra key points, when focual planets (ascendant, ascendant lord, moon, sun occuied star lord) must occupie specific star based on that star trades, life events will takes place as per the mythology of nakshatras. (not exactly near to the situation)

    For example magha star if influances in positive way by yoga karaka combinations, connection with dasha he might be teacher, doctor, horse rider, bike racer, emergency services. If its start giving negative ways he might be patient, accident, illitrate, extra marial affairs, eye problems etc.

    Forur navamshas connected to each star. it would be aries, taurus, gemini, cancer, first aries connected to engineering, vachiles, horse riding, medical etc, third navamsha connected to gemini then he will be connected to mathametical , astrology, banking, finance, caliculation, analytics etc. because ashwins are twins one is great rider and doctor another is astrologer and mathametician.

    Remaining two navamshas taurus will be connected to art, acting etc, cancer can be connected to water farming, boats riding, sometimes even petrol bunks etc.

    Parihara Temples

    Before doing any parihar or remedy you need to understand what it is exactly. Unless it will not be usefula anymore. Primaraliy about God, Karma (Good/ Bad), Life path, will remedies really resolve your problem ?

    Every human have specific metrial purposes that’s the reason they depend on super natural energies when things can’t be resolve by theme self. It would children, marriage, health, career, litigrations, well being etc.

    As per the hindu culture for every nakshatra there is specific temple is there. When planets specifically got afflicated on specific star based that also astrologers generally suggests it.

    Sri Mahalingeswarar Temple located at Tiruvidaimaruthur, Tamil Nadu. The main god of this temple is Lord Shiva (Mahalingeswarar). Naturally, Magha people worship here for relief from adverse planetary problems. Special pujas are performed for Lord and Mother on Masi Magam festival day. For remedy from illnesses, devotees’ light ghee lamps. Those facing Vasthu problems in their houses, also worship here.
