It is said that opposites attract. Why?

Understand this from Astrological Principles

When two or more planets are exactly 180° apart from each other, they create an opposition aspect. Such a difference in the orb is the 7^th sign in the zodiac from where the planet is currently posited. The 7^th element in the zodiac is a complementary element like; Fire (1) – Air (7), Earth (2) – Water (8), Air (3) – Fire (9), Water (4) – Earth (10) and represents the same quality, like; Movable – Movable, Fixed – Fixed, Dual - Dual.

Aries is the first sign which is a Fire and Movable sign and from here 180° apart is the 7th sign Libra which is an Air and Movable sign. The element in these two signs are complementary to each other, Fire – Air, and both have the same Movable quality.

The energy generated by a planet in Aries is different from the same planet produced in Libra, as the element is different. Hence, such an aspect creates pressure, tension, and conflict in life as there is a lack of harmony between these two energies. For example, Saturn which is a dry and cold planet in the fire sign (Aries) produces a different kind of energy in the natal chart, and Saturn in the Air sign (Libra) produces a different kind of energy in transit and there is no harmony between these two energies. Although the element supports each other but planetary energy is different. Due to such disharmony when a planet in the natal chart creates opposition with the same planet in transit, various tensions and conflicts start to arise in the life of the natives related to the matter of the concerned houses.

In the same manner, a planet in Taurus which is Earth and a Fixed sign creates opposition to Scorpio which is Water and a Fixed sign and so on.

Due to disharmony of energies although the opposition aspect creates stress, pressure, the difference of opinion, and conflict in life, but element supports each other, so support also come. Also, both the signs have the same quality, therefore, deep inside they feel attraction toward each other; Movable (1) - Movable (7), Fixed (2) – Fixed (8), Dual (3) – Dual (9).

This is why it is said that opposites attract. Each house from the seventh house represents not only tension and conflict but also attraction and support. The first house in the zodiac represents yourself and the seventh house represents your spouse or partner. Lovers attract and support each other but stress, tension, and difference of opinion are also a part of life from which one cannot escape. It is the functioning of the opposite aspect (7^th house) which will accompany you, due to which you will feel the attraction but will also give stress and tension in life.

Chart:

The above chart represents the energy coming from two different directions. Such a situation in life teaches us to create balance in every sphere of life. The opposition represents the polarities and without balance it cannot exist. It is the meeting of two opposite energies like yin and yang. When two opposite energies of similar quality meet it provides an opportunity for a union. It also indicates a compromise without which a union of two different energy is not possible and then such a situation becomes a stalemate in life. The crisis of middle age teaches a person to make compromises in various aspects of life.

Mleccha (Outcaste) Energy: How it Works?

Mleccha (Outcaste) Nakshatra – Bharani, Aslesha, Vishakha, Shravana

This wild energy works to perform tasks that traditional society does not generally accept. They like to do those works which other people are not ready to do. They feel no shame in working with primitive human instincts which have an element of excitement, adventure and provide a thrill. This energy creates an attraction that enables these people to remain isolated from others as well as conceal their actions.

In society, people want to release their suppressed energy and are looking for this excitement. Products that can create such a thrill are in great demand. When people are suddenly exposed to a shocking thing they feel instantly attracted and this energy (Mleccha) knows how to use these stimuli. Therefore, Mleccha people have the quality to make things exciting and they are the creators of exciting news. Due to their extraordinary quality, they can attract the attention of others. They know what to do to attract people, therefore, they are not bothered about controversies.

In present days, these characteristics make these people come “On top of every caste” rather than outcaste. They are famous performers, artists, celebrities and work for media and entertainment and other industries where these types of work are required to attract the masses. They invite shocking facts and controversial things which create uproar and excitement among the public. They remain on top of the news channels with their antics.

To increase sales, companies are looking for activities that create excitement among people and fascinate them to buy the product. Therefore, the people who can create such type of excitement are in great demand by these industries.

People of these Nakshatras discard the mainstream function of family or society and engage in activities that are not accepted by traditional society. They like excitement and adventure and love to perform such acts.

They form personal relationships with people who do not belong to their society, community, or country. They like to marry foreigners or a person who is not from their culture or society. They do not want to follow the law and culture of their tradition and often say that they do not believe in casteism and stereotypes and they want to live their lives freely. Therefore, they prefer to live their separate lives.

Mleccha energy seeks and creates that attraction that no other energy can provide. This energy is capable of doing something exciting and to which the person is attracted. This energy separates itself from the things that people in society generally follow. Controlled wild energy can give good results, so physical activities, sports, dance, and meditation are essential for these people. Otherwise, it is wasted in creating controversy and enjoying the thrill, but the thrill is fleeting. That's why they keep looking for one thrill after another and being in controversies becomes the purpose of life.

On the higher aspect, these nakshatras have a strong capacity for self-expression that does not accept social constraints. However, the path to its execution may be full of controversies, but it is the pursuit of freedom and the greatest freedom is the freedom of the soul from birth and death. Therefore, Mleccha energies have a strong potential to produce great sages.

Four Phases of Mleccha Energy;

a) Bharani – It is an inexperienced, young, and enthusiastic energy that requires guidance. They are eager and ready to learn and gather wisdom through experience.

b) Ashlesha – It is the energy that likes to break the rules, it has gained experience but still needs maturity.

c) Vishakha - It is an extremely wild and powerful energy. Here a powerful manifestation is seen who can do anything to achieve what it wants. It is a strong transformative energy that transcends any limits. Therefore, the path of truth is essential for these people and when transformed it can lead to great spirituality.

d) Shravana - This is the most mature energy which has experience as well as efficiency. This energy goes deep and creates an understanding of deep spiritual meanings. This powerful energy has developed wisdom by gaining control of their own vibration. This is the most developed stage of all Mleccha energies where the individual follows spiritual rituals and organizes his energies.

Who is our friend and who is our enemy?

We all meet different types of people in our life. Friends are those who are always ready to help and enemies are those who never help and are ready to throw into the well. A very close friend and enemy have a deep impact on our lives. Without true friends, it is very difficult for a person to move ahead in life and fight against odd circumstances. A friend can be anyone, someone from the family or someone outside the family can be a good friend, but the identity of a true friend is he is always ready to help without any selfishness. The following few points provide the differences between these two;

·   A friend always stands behind the person to support him and prevent him from falling. The enemy also stands behind but is always ready to push.

·     The friends who stand near us are called close friends and the enemies who stand around us are called close enemies.

·    It is possible that a friend may fail to cooperate with you or may not answer your call when you need him, but the enemy never misses, they just wait for the opportunity, and the enemy is more alert than the friend.

People want to live among their friends and want to get rid of their enemies as soon as possible. The principle of friend and enemy not only works for humans but it also works on planets and stars.

With the help of the above description of friends and enemies, we will understand the principle of Shubh Kartari and Paap Kartari yoga that works not only in the birth chart but also in the transit of planets.

Shubh Kartari and Paap Kartari Yoga

Shubh Kartari Yoga is formed when a planet or a house is surrounded by benefic planets from both sides and Paap Kartari Yoga is formed when a planet or a house is surrounded by malefic planets on both sides without any beneficial aspect. This yoga can be understood better in a situation when both of our neighbors are good then they will help us, and when both of the neighbors are bad then no help will come, they will affect the matter of the house and create unnecessary problems. Sometimes the very presence of this kind of rogue person in their own house creates problems for their neighbours.

Shubh kartari yoga increases the auspiciousness of the planet or house while Paap Kartari yoga tends to cause difficulty for that planet or house.

About The Book

Astrology is deeply related to predictions. People are always curious about their future and want to know what is written in their destiny but predictions are not blind repetitions of the words written in our scriptures but it is important to assimilate the meaning of those words before saying anything. It is a continuous learning process and requires not only analytical power but also the power of intuition.

Knowledge of astrology cannot change a person's destiny but helps in taking steps in the unknown direction. Without proper direction people keep wandering here and there in search of light, astrology opens new doors and provides the true path of life. Astrology is not a means of entertainment that we get on television and newspapers, because entertainment has no solid basis and cannot last for generations.

It is very important to understand the personality of the person before making any prediction because the person takes these words as per his understanding and for people with weak minds there are more chances of misinterpreting it. This book explains in detail how to understand a person's personality. Understand the role of Atmakaraka in a new perspective, know the effect of the transit of planets, and know how the animal associated with each nakshatra decides our friends and enemies. It is important to consider the strengths and weaknesses of the planets and this book discusses this in detail. Here are some important sutras from Saravali that I came across in my journey towards astrology.
