studying in an Amrita University is just pain on so many different levels.

Got insulted by the warden for violating the dress code apparently (ever heard of personal choice ma'am? istg these people see skin and get all up people's faces) but been telling them about the rat scampering up and down my corridor and so far nil action taken.

WELCOME TO LUNAR COVE, AMRITA SINGH

Trigger Warnings: Abuse, Neglect, and Gaslighting.

(start of tw) Amrita Signh grew up in a house that shook underneath each step her mother, Savitree Deen, took. All throughout her childhood she heard from her step father and family that her mother was a kind person, and that Amrita was simply misunderstanding her mother’s intentions. “You’re being ungrateful,” the young witch often heard the few times she voices concerns of her mother’s behavior towards her. For young Amrita, it was clear that there was a distinct divide in how she was treated versus their sibling. Her mother’s tone alone differed whenever she spoke the name Amrita. She spewed spiteful words as she condemned Amrita’s father for never showing up, never picking her up, never being a father. Amrita’s mother received empty promises by Naresh Signh, he promised he would be there, he would not make the same mistake as he once did. Still, every summer, no one picked Amrita up and when he did it was for merely a week. He picked up the young witch and took her to different cities outside of Quebec.

Each time Naresh failed Savitree, Amrita heard the same expression, “I shouldn’t have had her” in reference to her own existence. Amrita knew from a young age, she was never truly wanted, neither father nor mother truly sought her out. Her step father, however, did care for her. He taught her how to read, he made sure to bring sweets for Amrita whenever he went on a trip or seminar. In her step father, Amrita found solace, but never for long, for as soon as Amrita voiced any desire for her mother to be more loving, for her to come to school meetings, for her to include her in family pictures, her step father dismissed each worry, asking why those things mattered so much. Why did she need such petty signs of affection? Her step father would ask, Amrita conceded. It must have all been in her mind. Her step father always spewed lies and excuses as to why Amrita’s mother couldn’t make it to her recitals. He mentioned how they were both so proud of her, and yet each time she attempted to practice at home, Savitree would yell at her, telling her to quiet down with that abhorrent noise. The lies were meant to comfort her and for a while they did. From a young age, she learned to not ask for much. She learned to envy other kids in silence. She learned that it wasn’t ever her mother’s fault, it couldn’t be. She was just being ungrateful. When Amrita developed a liking to classical music, she begged for months for a violin or cello, so she could learn and participate in the school recitals. It was the first time Amrita had ever asked for a gift, for something specific with such drive. She knew better, but she had seen a recital performed by older kids in her school and she thought they were so beautiful. The way each individual came together to perform as a cohesive whole. Her mother merely tsk’ed and scowled, and asked if Amrita was sure she wanted such a thing. Savitree belittled the young child stating how expensive those instruments were, how they would be wasted on her, was she even certain that she won’t grow bored of them? With tears in her eyes, Amrita pleaded her case, and to calm her down, her step father intervened to say “We’ll see what we can do.”Almost at the end of the year, for Christmas, Amrita received a violin. She took a liking to string instruments and by the time she was a teenager, she knew how to play both the violin and the bass electric guitar. Two distinct instruments that filled her with joy.

In her teenage years, her mother’s neglect turned into something else. The insults, the reminder of her worthlessness came accompanied with physical violence. It escalated quickly especially given that her mother and step father had a bit of a tough patch during those years, and her step father went to live elsewhere for a bit. Hospital visits became more and more frequent with the same excuses. People suspected, however, and showed up at Amrita’s house one day. Everything appeared to be well though. Her mom played it like Amrita was just clumsy and that she carried her violin everywhere. “She’s bound to fall given the weight of her backpack and violin combined! I tell her to be careful.” Not much could be done after the visit. It continued until one day, after Amrita’s abilities started appearing and she started asking questions, her mother threw a glass vase at Amrita, and Amrita used earth manipulation to deflect the hit. The dirt underneath her came up and became a wall, a shield of sorts, to evade that hit. Her mother screamed at the top of her lungs and hurried Amrita inside the house. “You’re never to do that again! Never! Forget you can do that.” At that, Amrita questioned whether her mom knew all along. “Of course, I have them, but I don’t use them! It’s dangerous.” The fear in her mother’s eyes scarred Amrita. It was then she realized how her mother never had to touch objects to throw them at Amrita, how sometimes she began to struggle for air when she was too loud. Could those be her abilities?

The following day, she asked her mother about her abilities, but her mother refused to speak on it and attempted to confuse Amrita. “What are you talking about? You must have imagined it!” Amrita waited a week, asking her mother everyday about it, refusing to give up for the first time in her life. Her mother’s reaction on day seven of the interrogation confirmed to Amrita that she had to leave. “I should’ve given you up like I did before! Stop with your stupid questions! Do you want us killed? What is wrong with you?” Each sentence came delivered with a swift blow. She couldn’t stay there longer especially if she wanted to harness the abilities, if she wanted to grow stronger, if she wanted answers. So, after another terrible beating, Amrita ran away from her home, knowing she wouldn’t be missed, at least not by her parents. She stayed with some high school friends until their parents asked questions, and until her mother appeared at school for the first time, then she left the city entirely. Her dad, who she had seen from time to time, heard of this and reached out. Asking Amrita to stay with him at least until she finished high school, she conceded and a few months after she was in California with her father, Naresh Singh, a renowned Film and Sound editor in Hollywood. (end of tw)

Amrita confronted him about whether he had any abilities or not, his face grew stern at her questions. He explained that they couldn’t talk about it much, not where they were, but slowly Amrita broke down that barrier until one day, her father admitted he had abilities like her. He told her that it was far too dangerous for the likes of them to use these abilities freely, they came with a cost, with persecution. Still, with her father, she found a few answers. She learned that he could manipulate technology, something that was handy on his job, though he insisted that she didn’t try to use her abilities in public. Something she ignored. Duplication was handy for the young witch especially when she started saving up for college. Working two shifts at the same time became possible and her savings started growing rapidly. She didn’t stay in jobs too often, merely a year or six months then moved on, so people didn’t find anything suspicious. She eventually left California and started hunting for a university, something cheaper that she could afford. She applied for the branch in Lunar Cove and was rejected, but her curiosity got the best of her. So, she settled out in Rhode Island.

Something called her to that branch, maybe the fact it was a classics focused school. Could there be hidden truths about witchcraft in the scholarly communities? She sought out and arrived merely a week ago, settling into her rather shabby apartment. Amrita is steadfast in her quest to apply for the university again, as a double major focusing on geology and history. She craves answers, and she’s going to find them. Her mother slipped up one day and mentioned that Amrita had another sibling. A detail that Amrita hasn’t forgotten. She asked her father about it and he told her that all he knew was that her sibling had grown up in Castine, Maine. While Amrita isn’t actively seeking them out, she knows they are out there, and she assumes that they possess magic. Part of her hopes that they cross paths, would her sibling have the answers she’s looking for? Or could they find them together?

"The left hand, lowered, holds a silver cup, from which she pours the immortal liquor of her life. This liquor is the Amrita of the Indian Philosophers, the Nepenthe and Ambrosia of the Greeks, the Alkahest and Universal Medicine of the Alchemists, the Blood of the Grail; or rather, the nectar which is the mother of that blood". --Aleister Crowley, Liber LXV

The Daughter of the Firmament.

The Path of the Natural Intelligence is the Path of the raw forces attributed to Netzach (Victory). To a Qabalist these natural forces are called the Elohim (Gods of Netzach) and are synonymous with nature itself. Moreover, the number of The Star, is 17 and when added together (1+7=8) seventeen becomes 8 which is ATU/Key 8-Adjustment, which represents conscious control and/or balanced control, over the vigorous star energy- of the Kundalini (Lion-Serpent) whose description is both solar (lion is the symbol of the Sun) and sexual (serpentine force).

লিখি লোৱা, মই এজন মিঞা ("Write Down 'I am a Miyah'", 2016) by Hafiz Ahmed, translated from Assamese to English by Shalim M. Hussain, began a movement of resistance poetry among Assamese Muslims of Bengali descent, referred to as Miya Poetry after a slur used to describe this community. From Abdul Kalam Azad, for Indian Express ("Write...I am a Miya", 2019):

This poem went viral and other young poets started responding to him through poems. The young poets also started reclaiming “Miya”, a slur used against us, as our identity with pride. This chain of Facebook posts continued for days, reiterating the violence, suffering and humiliation expressed by our community. As time passed, more poets wrote in various languages and dialects, including many Miya dialects. The nomenclature ‘Miya Poetry’ got generated organically but the poets and their associates have been inspired by the Negritude and Black Arts movements, and queer, feminist and Dalit literary movements, where the oppressed have reclaimed the identity which was used to dehumanise them. The trend transcended our community. Poets from the mainstream Assamese community also wrote several poems in solidarity with the Miya poets while some regretted not being poets. Gradually, this became a full-fledged poetry movement and got recognised by other poets, critics and commentators. The quality and soul of these poems are so universal that they started finding prominence on reputed platforms. For the first time in the history of our community, we had started telling our own stories and reclaiming the Miya identity to fight against our harassers who were dehumanising us with the same word. They accused us of portraying the whole Assamese society as xenophobic. The fact is we have just analysed our conditions. Forget generalising the Assamese society as ‘xenophobic’, no Miya poet has ever used the term ‘xenophobic’ nor any of its variants. The guilt complex of our accusers is so profound that they don’t have the patience to examine why we wrote the poems.

Amrita Singh, writing for The Caravan ("Assam Against Itself", 2019), detailed the political backlash against Miya Poetry, in particular the above poem.

On 10 July this year, Pranabjit Doloi, an Assam-based journalist, filed a complaint at Guwahati’s Panbazar police station accusing ten people of indulging in criminal activities “to defame the Assamese people as Xenophobic in the world.” Doloi claimed that the ten people were trying to hinder the ongoing updation of the National Register of Citizens, a list of Assam’s Indian citizens that is due to be published on 31 August. The premise of Doloi’s complaint was a widely-circulated poem called, “Write down I am Miya,” by Hafiz Ahmed, a school teacher and social activist. “Write. Write down I am a Miya/ A citizen of democratic secular republic without any rights,” Ahmed wrote. The police registered a first information report against Doloi’s complaint, booking all ten persons for promoting enmity between groups, among other offences. [...] At the press conference, Mander emphasised that people in Assam are in distress because of the NRC’s arbitrary and rigid procedures. “One spelling mistake when you are writing a Bengali name in English … that is enough for you to be in a detention center, declared a foreigner,” Mander said. “If you are not allowing this lament to come out in the form of poetry, then where is this republic of India going?”

Ahmed's poem is influenced in structure by "Identity Card", a 1964 poem by by Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish which uses the symbolic figure of the Palestinian working man to confront Israeli occupiers. Darwish's identity card, a symbol of Israeli subjugation transformed into a cry of Palestinian national identity, is reshaped by Ahmed into the National Register of Citizens for Assam and the accompanying fear of statelessness and disenfranchisement for the Miya people.

This solidarity between writers from oppressed groups is, of course, not one that ends with Darwish and Ahmed, nor with the Black, queer, feminist, and Dalit influences of Miya Poetry. As long as there is oppression, there will be companionship and recognition reflected in art and activism. On December 13, 2023, Black Agenda Report reprinted Refaat Alareer's "If I Must Die", acknowledging the connection between Alareer's poem and "If We Must Die" by Claude McKay, written in 1919 in response to the Red Summer white supremacist riots. In 2000, Haitian community activist Dahoud Andre translated "If We Must Die" into Kreyòl, and the Black Agenda Report editorial honors Alareer in a similar way, reprinting "If I Must Die" with an accompanying Kreyòl translation. (POEM: If I Must Die, Refaat Alareer, 2023.)

Identity Card Mahmoud Darwish, 1964 trans. Denys Johnson-Davies

Put it on record. I am an Arab

And the number of my card is fifty thousand I have eight children And the ninth is due after summer. What's there to be angry about?

Put it on record. I am an Arab

Working with comrades of toil in a quarry. I have eight children For them I wrest the loaf of bread, The clothes and exercise books From the rocks And beg for no alms at your door, Lower not myself at your doorstep. What's there to be angry about?

Put it on record. I am an Arab.

I am a name without a title, Patient in a country where everything Lives in a whirlpool of anger. My roots Took hold before the birth of time Before the burgeoning of the ages, Before cypress and olive trees, Before the proliferation of weeds.

My father is from the family of the plough Not from highborn nobles.

And my grandfather was a peasant Without line or genealogy.

My house is a watchman's hut Made of sticks and reeds.

Does my status satisfy you? I am a name without a surname.

Put it on record. I am an Arab.

Color of hair: jet black. Color of eyes: brown. My distinguishing features: On my head the `iqal cords over a keffiyeh Scratching him who touches it.

My address: I'm from a village, remote, forgotten, Its streets without name And all its men in the fields and quarry. What's there to be angry about?

Put it on record. I am an Arab.

You stole my forefathers' vineyards And land I used to till, I and all my children, And you left us and all my grandchildren Nothing but these rocks. Will your government be taking them too As is being said?

So! Put it on record at the top of page one: I don't hate people, I trespass on no one's property.

And yet, if I were to become hungry I shall eat the flesh of my usurper. Beware, beware of my hunger And of my anger!

mars, ego death, and “b*mbofication” ❤️‍🔥

❤️‍🔥 heidi montag (popular y2k singer, mtv reality tv star, and model): dhanishta chandra and kuja amatyakaraka

💳 before we divulge further into the y2k b*mbo aesthetic, i think it is best to further divulge in the process’s meaning and origin. the aesthetic’s overall ditzy demeanor is symbolic of the benefits one receives from the absence of overthinking and prevention of needing to justify their behaviors and actions to others, especially those opinions who they do not truly value. thus, resulting in a jovial and advantageous attitude towards both themself and their life. the act of removing care, letting go, and radically surrendering to what comes and leaves in your life is an “ego death”. in engaging in abandoning care for frivolous occurrences and surrendering to the unknown, you are slowly encouraging ketu to enter your life, as he is said to have no head (thus, no ego, no face, no sensing, no thinking, or no expressions). a common misconception is that ketu denies, however ketu is not the embodiment of denial but rather indifference. this is why the house ketu resides in in your chart represents the aspects in your life in which you will remain indifferent towards, as you have already experienced the triumphs and tribulations of this house in a previous lifetime. in turning away from caring or indulgence, the item/person you once valued/desired now craves to win your attachment more. this is why individuals popular in this aesthetic seem to live unabashedly and frivolously and continue to receive bouts of wealth. in becoming a blank canvas or black hole (also linked to ketu), you are inviting the universe to bestow various paints (people or items) to adorn yourself with. this is ultimately why kuja (mars: the graha of rage, celibacy, determination, and power) needs to learn from the elderly presence of ketu (neutrality and disassociation) in order to abide in the graha’s naturally youthful energy.

❤️‍🔥 victoria’s secret angel’s bombshell campaign models: candace swanepoel: chitra surya and dhanishta chandra; doutzen kroes: dhanishta chandra conjunct kuja; josephine skriver: possible aries surya and kuja atmakaraka/amatyakaraka depending on time of birth; and lindsay ellingson: scorpio surya and potential chitra chandra

* note that the majority of vs angels themselves are influenced by kuja. the founder of vs (roy raymond) is an aries surya and dhanishta chandra atmakaraka as well

🪞 in addition to martian natives’ frequent adaptations of ketu’s care free attitudes, their frequently attractive looks are often what draws the adoration of the masses to them. this is because kuja is the son of bhumi (earth) and varaha (the boar). while i have detailed bhumi’s prevalence in depth in previous explorations, i will explore the relationship between the two deities here. bhumi, being the embodiment of the earth, is fertility and divinity. her iconography traces back to the beginning of the zodiac in aries (as she is often depicted with ashwini’s emblems of elephants and horses). her overall earthy nature and varaha’s ether elemental nature combines within the mrigashira, chitra, and dhanishta nakshatras. as each nakshatra lies in the zodiac transitional stage from earth to air (ex. taurus-gemini, virgo-libra, and capricorn-aquarius). this is because varaha was mythologized to have lifted the earth (bhumi) out of the cosmic ocean. the cosmic ocean is the container of amrita, immortality. in greek mythology, said immortality is said to be bestowed in the four horses of aries (the realm of bhumi). when the asura hiranyaksha (attacker, k*dnapper, and obstructor) stole bhumi and hid her in the primordial waters, vishnu appeared as varaha to rescue her. varaha slew the asura, and retrieved the earth from the ocean, lifting it on his tusks, and restored bhumi to her place in the universe. in a similar fashion, so too do the public respond to martian individuals. the majority of worshipping men wish to serve as each kuja woman’s varaha: saving her, idealizing her, lifting her up to the highest places in society. this is why uttara ashadha, the most masculine nakshatra, is symbolized by the similar tusks to that of aries and varaha. these tusks convey masculine power and leadership, in worshipping, adoring, and obsessing over these women, men are more called to feel powerful and energized, as evidenced by large, male-dominated corporations that are geared towards women (such as victoria’s secret).

❤️‍🔥 khloe and kim kardashian (both are considered american socialites, media personalities, businesswomen, and had heavily publicized s*x lives). kim: scorpio lagna conjunct kuja and chitra surya. khloe: mrigashira chandra, dhanishta lagna, and kuja amatyakaraka

🍹 whereas, it is often women who serve as asura hiranyaksha in the earthly plane, behaving as jealous or aggressive towards martian women (whether they are also kuja natives or not). this accumulation of ill will, whether subconscious or conscious, is often more harmful for the projector and not the attempted receptor. when a person chooses to become a blank canvas and chooses the impressions that may last upon them, they are able to choose to not receive or regurgitate the energy they do not align with. this usage of reflection is why kuja must learn from its proneness to accidents/tragedy and begin to reject said accidents/tragedy via reflection and indifference and not be consumed by them. this jealousy and projection is an extreme prohibitory measure in the female path. this act of feminine division is unknowingly engaging one’s rahu: the graha of difference and duality, as the aggressor/projector is dividing themselves from the martian woman (instead of being inspired and finding amrita within).

❤️‍🔥 emma roberts (actress known for her portrayal of a multitude of “exaggerated” mean girl characters in “scream queens”, “american horror story”, “wild child”, “we’re the millers”, etc.): dhanishta surya conjunct kuja and scorpio lagna

🛍️ in chinese practices, it is often said that when men frequently interact together in friendships, they tend to reduce their yang, individualistic nature around one another. when men are in the presence of women, they increase their yang, as varaha did with bhumi. whereas, when women frequently interact together, they increase yin in one another and garner greater beauty. this is due to the feminine, yin, watery nature of each other. the beauty and personality of a woman is said to be denoted by their chandra and kuja placements. this is why these grahas are used to analyze one’s behavior, nature, and qualities. thus, water signs are considered to be of 100% water, however the martian nakshatra’s are considered to be of a 1/4 water (with dhanishta being an exception and being 100% water, as it is designed to be the total, healed representation of martian energies). therefore, in positively engaging with martian individuals, who have some or all properties of water, one is heightening their prevalence of yin within the body.

❤️‍🔥 rachel mcadams (best known for her acting in romantic films and her iconic character in “mean girls”) and lindsay lohan (co-star in “mean girls”, popular y2k actress, and well-known star of the “b*mbo summit”. rachel: mrigashira chandra, scorpio surya, and chitra lagna. lindsay: mrigashira lagna, aries chandra, and kuja amatyakaraka

* note that the film was directed by tina fey (a chitra chandra and kuja amatyakaraka native and co-starred amanda seyfried (a scorpio surya and kuja atmakaraka/amatyakaraka native, depending on the exact time in which she was born) and lacey chalbert (potential dhanishta chandra)

🍒 the act of refusing to allow the jealousy and self-preservation to intrude your mind and put to rest your ego is considered a form of goddess worship. goddesses, such as the lakshmi-aspect bhumi, are infinitesimally beautiful than that of human beings. contrary to the principles of hate or jealousy many harbor against martian natives, people worship them and strive to embody that beauty themselves. in turn, they are gradually merging their image/beauty to align with her. if goddesses were regarded with the same envious treatment of most women on this earthly plane, we would be drastically divided from them. the more beauty one immerses themself in, the more your own physical vessel begins to beautify/purify, as water adds to water. this is why it is often said that you are the company you keep, you are the canvas, but who do you choose to hold the paint brush?

❤️‍🔥 jennifer aniston (one of the highest paid actresses of all time, frequent of 90s tabloids, and known for her portrayal of “rachel” on “friends”): chitra lagna conjunct kuja atmakaraka, scorpio chandra, and dhanishta surya

🎀 shri vidya states that beauty is equal to truth; that which is beautiful is aligned with harmony, rather than chaos or disorder. the more women allow beauty into our lives, contrary to meeting it with jealousy, the more they embody harmony and beauty itself. i am not saying all women are prone to jealousy, but it is often a feeling we all have experienced once or another. i am simply stating that we should always strive to bring ourselves closer to beauty, instead of attempting to demonize and mitigate it. beauty is exhibited in a multitude of forms other than the physical life form, from photography and painting to crocheting and engineering. i call women who are prone to jealousy to embrace other’s beauty cosmically and become inspired. this may be an act as simple as following along to someone’s makeup routine or looking to incorporate painting techniques from others into their self-portrait. inspiration is an essential part of the feminine existence, it illuminates the areas in life we can beautify and improve in in order to become more aligned with symmetry and harmony. in sanskrit, when you have a vision of a goddess, it is deemed as darshan. darshan occurs when one has pleased the deity through a certain amount of devotion (via prayer, mantra, etc.) and is aided by having a strong fire element (contrary to watery elemental nature of beauty itself, it is of ketu, the ultimate spiritual fire, relating to the power of vision and removing impurities in your perception, in order to see the truth). in engaging in jealousy, you are rejecting the goddess through the women around you, thus eliminating your chances of experiencing the great pleasure of darshan. you are rejecting inspiration, blessings, and overall beautification.

❤️‍🔥 marilyn monroe (the most popular s*x symbol of the 50s/60s, an emblem of the era’s s*xual revolution, and known for her comedic portrayal of “blonde bombshell” characters): dhanishta chandra and kuja amatyakaraka

🪐 according to dreamgirlarchive on here, popular symbols within this aesthetic include “designer sunglasses, playboy bunny necklaces, big watches, and silver everything”. interestingly enough, silver is said to remedy rahu, as if one is said to be facing the wrath of rahu, they are advised to drink water in a silver glass. in vedic literature, it is additionally advised to consume basil water within said glass. the water acts as a purifier, immersing oneself in kapha energies, primarily that of shukra and chandra, as they are correlated to this healing measure. the additional usage of basil is symbolic of kuja. botanist and physician nicholas culpeper (mrigashira chandra and kuja atmakaraka) noted that basil is an herb of mars and under the influence of the scorpion, referring to it as basilicon. europeans would place basil in the hand of their deceased loved ones to ensure safe passage to the next plain of existence. in consuming/adorning oneself in basil/kuja, they are granted immunity and immortality in the after life, similar to the aforementioned conquest of bhumi and amrita. additionally, the covering of eyes in the darkened, coal-esque color of ketu (sunglasses) mirrors the power of vision and its emphasis in ketu’s mythology and physical aesthetics (as many ketu natives have emphasized eyes). the emphasis of designer fashion (many fashion designers are uttara bhadrapada natives) and watches call to mind the teachings of rahu’s contemporary: shani. who counters the disassociation of ketu and correlates to denial for the promise of a greater future. as it is shani himself who is also considered to be healed by silver. this is why a popular designer in the y2k aesthetic, vivian westwood, is an uttara bhadrapada surya, and designed the popular saturn-shaped necklace titled: the mini “bas”.

❤️‍🔥 paris hilton (american media personality, socialite, businesswoman, and model): dhanishta surya conjunct kuja and scorpio lagna

🌱 additionally, throughout the images enclosed in this post, you might have noticed the prevalence of kuja amatyakaraka natives. mars amatyakaraka is deemed as making an individual fit for working in the army or line of defense. this placement additionally gives success in speed-oriented tasks. this makes natives especially gifted at dealing with an influx of tenacity and harmful projections from the masses and accumulating a countering army of a following/fan base. they are additionally keen at reflecting (as i spoke about previously). perhaps the most interesting nature of this placement is its gift of time/speed (shani). while their careers and fame may be quick to rise and accumulate accolades, natives of this placement must be weary and learn to pace themselves before shani humbles them. as evidenced by the frequent rises and falls of these natives’ careers and lives. overall, there is much we can learn from the women who popularized this aesthetic, attitude, and ideology: find inspiration in adoration and admiration; learn from the feminine beings around you to discover the goddess within; and, most importantly, understand that there are teachings to learn from all grahas (not just ketu, as evidenced by the involvement of shani, rahu, chandra, and shukra in the healing of kuja, despite them being considered “enemy grahas”).

— please take the time to list below whether my next post should be on the beauty of ashwini lagna or the beauty of swati lagna? i know i speak about beautification and femininity frequently and i can understand why i’ve received questions and messages asking me, kindly and not so kindly, to branch outside of this topic. however, as for the moment and the entirety of my account so far, this has been a great source of happiness for me. if that bothers you, i encourage to follow the multitude of others who provide vedic astrology-based content. i do appreciate all of the wonderful chances i have had to read everyone’s charts (i’ve received approximately forty orders since i began offering my services) and i appreciate everyone’s patience and kindness as i grow and refine my style. much like my posts, my readings are never truly shortened or condensed. so i apologize for their immense lengthiness and i am always open to further elaborate on what i mentioned (whether you received a reading from me yesterday or several months ago). simply shoot me an email and i will reply. additionally, my google email account appears to not be sending some readings due to their length. if you have not received yours by the receive date, please contact me via email so i can resend your reading. never feel afraid to ask, as you are most certainly entitled to receiving a product you purchased. long ramblings aside, i am so grateful for each and every one of you. i promise more nakshatra explorations are in store, i tend to heavily critique each post i make but there are plenty of drafts i may assure you all. i truly am so baffled at how there are thousands of people who want to read this blog. your prevalence, beauty, and kindness amazes me <3

Verse 31/32

Ayamevodayas tasya dhyeyasya dhyayi-cetasi/

Tadatmata-Samapattir icchatah sadhakasya ya//

Iyamevamrtapraptir ayamev atmano grahah/

Iyam nirvana-diksa ca siva-sadbhavadayin!//

This (identity of his Self with the whole universe) is only the manifestation of the object of meditation in the meditator's mind that the aspirant with a resolute will has the realization of his pure being.

This alone is the acquisition of ambrosia/Amrita leading to immortality; this alone is the realization of Self: this alone is the initiation of liberation leafing to identity with Siva.

It is declared here that 'one should worship Siva by becoming Siva . That alone constitutes the manifestation of the object of meditation leading to the realization of identity with the object of meditation.

As has been said by the teacher "O Lord, in this whole world which is thy own manifest form, what is that spot which is not a holy place to thy devotees and where the mantras of these devotees will not bear fruit"?. This alone is his great accomplishment that he acquires the ambrosia of the highest non-duality.

This section has been rightly entitled Sahajavidyodaya i.e., the rise of Sahaja vidya. Sahaja or Suddha vidya is that state in which in spite of the seeming difference of all that is earth, earthy, there is a running sense of unity, identity, of the Supreme I-consciousness fused with the all-of-reality. Vasugupta says- "Whether it is word or thought or object there is no state which is not Siva."

In the first section, the emphasis is on the Self-realization as Siva. In the second section, the emphasis is on the realization of the universe as Siva or in the technical language of this system on Siva-vyapti.

From the point of view of yoga, the emphasis in the first section is on nimilana-samadhi, on introversive meditation, on taking a plunge mentally in the innermost Self and realizing it as Siva. In the second section, the emphasis is on unmilana samadhi or extroversive meditation in which in spite of the senses being open to the onset of external sensation, the world appears as the materialization of the bliss of Siva. Ksemaraja rightly calls it mahasamapatti, the coup of supreme realization.

Man has been in search of ambrosia that will make him immortal. The author says that the realization of one's identity with Siva is alone the real ambrosia, for it sets one free from the whirligig of birth and death. The aspirant subjects himself to a tedious ceremony of initiation (diksa) for liberation (nirvana). The author says that which gives the realization of identity with Siva is alone the real initiation for liberation.

Utpalabhatta quotes the following verse as a definition of initiation(diksa).

"Inititaion is that which gives realization and destroys all impurities. Because it imparts that realization which awakens one from the sleep of ignorance, therefore is it called diksa. It has the characteristic of both giving (di) and destroying (ksa)".

Swamiji Lakshmanjoo-

When a yogi with this determination sits for meditation, that, “I will not leave this meditation until I realize the real truth. I won’t come out of this meditative functioning. I won’t leave this function. I won’t leave this meditation until I realize God consciousness”...

when the sādhaka-yogi sits for meditation and becomes one with God consciousness, that means, the rise of God consciousness has taken place in his thought (ayamevaudayas-tasya dhyeyasya).

The state of God consciousness is to be meditated upon. And the rise of the state of God consciousness is that

[determination].

In other words, it is the rise of the state of God consciousness.

One should meditate with this determination [that], “I will never leave it until I realize the reality of God

consciousness.” [Your very determination] means, It has risen in the background of your consciousness– that reality of God consciousness. (31)

Iyameva, this is the attainment of amṛta (nectar, supreme nectar). The supreme nectar he has attained. Ayam eva ātmano, this is the controlling of your mind, this is one-pointedness of your mind.

Iyaṁ nirvāṇa dīkṣā ca, and this is the real initiation, which sentences you to liberation, ultimate liberation, śiva sadbhāvadāyinī, which will give you śiva sat bhāva, the state of Śiva bhāva. (32)

Name meaning: Portmanteau of 'amrita' (immortality) and 'amor' (love).

Nickname: Rita

About 10 (currently). Dunno if we'll ever get canon info on how long ago Blitzø & Ver broke up, but that'll effect her age.

Verosika didn't know she was pregnant until after the breakup.

Neither she nor Blitzø had a desire to reignite the relationship, but they attempt to coparent. Goes about as well as you'd expect.

Verosika has primary custody.

Philomena (Asmodeus/Fizzarolli child)

Background of Samudra Mathan and Lord Shiva consuming Haalaahala

I want to remember the story of Lord Shiva drinking poison, as it holds great significance in our Hindu tradition. It shows our Lord's compassion towards us.

The story of Samudra Manthan begins during a time of conflict between the Devas and Asuras. After being defeated, the Devas sought help from Lord Vishnu, who advised them to churn the ocean of milk to obtain amrita, the nectar of immortality. To do this, they needed the strength of the Asuras, so the Devas proposed a partnership. Mount Mandara served as the churning rod, and the serpent Vasuki was used as the rope.

As they churned, various treasures emerged, such as Kamadhenu, Airavata, Kalpavriksha, Laxmi, and Dhanvantari, who brought the pot of amrita. However, amidst these wonders, a deadly poison named Haalaahala surfaced, threatening to destroy everything. Both the Devas and Asuras were terrified and turned to Lord Shiva for assistance.

Lord Shiva answered their prayers and, realizing the gravity of the situation, decided to consume the poison to save the universe. With great resolve, he swallowed the Haalaahala, holding it in his throat to prevent it from affecting him. This act turned his throat blue, earning him the name Neelkanth.

Once Lord Shiva contained the poison, the churning continued, and eventually, the amrita was produced.

A Slight Variation in the story according to different sources:

In the story of Samudra Manthan, Parvati's involvement with the poison is often mentioned in various retellings. According to some versions, after Lord Shiva consumed the Haalaahala poison to save the universe, Parvati became concerned for his well-being.

To protect him, she is said to have grasped his throat, preventing the poison from going further into his body. This act symbolizes her role as a nurturing and protective force. This detail is found in some texts and folklore, though it may not be emphasized in all versions of the story.

I personally love the story of how Lord Shiva consumed Halahala to protect us. It shows that he is capable of absorbing all our poisons and granting the amrita of liberation. There is nothing that can equal his mercy.

XVII: The Star Talon Abraxas

"The left hand, lowered, holds a silver cup, from which she pours the immortal liquor of her life. This liquor is the Amrita of the Indian Philosophers, the Nepenthe and Ambrosia of the Greeks, the Alkahest and Universal Medicine of the Alchemists, the Blood of the Grail; or rather, the nectar which is the mother of that blood".

Aleister Crowley, Liber LXV

The Path of the Natural Intelligence is the Path of the raw forces attributed to Netzach (Victory). To a Qabalist these natural forces are called the Elohim (Gods of Netzach) and are synonymous with nature itself. Moreover, the number of The Star, is 17 and when added together (1+7=8) seventeen becomes 8 which is ATU/Key 8-Adjustment, which represents conscious control and/or balanced control, over the vigorous star energy- of the Kundalini (Lion-Serpent) whose description is both solar (lion is the symbol of the Sun) and sexual (serpentine force).
