Who Are You? Where To Find Yourself in a Chart. Part 2.

Now, let's look at the divisional charts that help us know ourselves. Previously, I showed you the main indicators to look at when you want to analyze yourself. (Part 1)

D1: This is your birth chart. It represents your physical environment. This is where you have to deal with everything that is given to you at birth: social background, financial matters, culture, religion, nationality, gender, health. You struggle there: you cannot always be completely yourself because of that. D1 is your shell where you can hide when external matters attack your true self.

D9: This divisional chart, or also called navamsha, represents your true self. This is the true self that hides under your D1 shell. As the Moon is the primary planet of this chart, it also represents your destiny. The Moon is the mind and the mind impacts one’s destiny. Some astrologers only use this chart for predictions.

D12: This divisional chart represents your ancestors’ legacy to you: your genes and everything else. It is also your past before you were born. You still carry it within you. The Sun is the primary planet of this D-chart, it enlightens all the other charts. According to some astrologers, planets ‘ states in D12 influence how these planets function in the other charts. D12 can be called the super chart. Some astrologers only use it for predictions.

D30: This divisional chart represents your weaknesses. You need to know your accurate time of birth to make sure it is the right one.

D27: This divisional chart represents your strengths.

D60: This divisional chart represents your soul on a very high level that is shaped from all the past life experiences. It can be considered as your higher self’s map here. You need an extremely accurate birth time to get the correct chart.

Mercury AtmaKaraka: Souls in search of Dialogue and Wisdom

“Mercury has the best looks, is witty, likes jokes and laughter, and is erudite. He assumes the nature and constitution of the planets with which he is associated” Parashari 3.26

In Vedic astrology, the concept of AtmaKaraka is one of the most profound and revealing in the natal chart. The atmaKaraka, also known as the “soul indicator”, is the planet that bears the greatest responsibility for the individual’s spiritual journey. It represents the greatest challenges, lessons and the path that the soul must take in this life to achieve growth and fulfillment. The planet with the highest degree in any sign becomes the AtmaKaraka, “the significator of self” or “self-indicator”. This, as the lord of the Ascendant, can become the most powerful planet in your chart. It is the most important planet to consider when judging an individual's spiritual nature, particularly in relation to its position in the ninth harmonic chart (navamsha). He provides us with a key to the aspirations of the soul. We often consider its position, such as the Ascendant, and read the chart indications accordingly.

This planet not only guides the purpose of life, but also indicates internal obstacles that a person needs to overcome to find their true identity. The AtmaKaraka position shows how we deal with our weaknesses, how we develop spiritually and where we should invest energy to evolve. The Atmakaraka carries the most important karmic lessons for this incarnation, becoming a key to understanding destiny and the soul's inner motivations. Although there are many other important points in the birth chart, the Atma is special because it is a direct representation of the qualities that our soul has already mastered in past lives and those that still need to be worked on. Depending on which planet occupies this position, the nature of these lessons varies profoundly. AK influences how we approach challenges in different areas of life, right down to our spiritual worldview.

Mercury is the greatest messenger of the gods. It is the planet that represents speech, communication and commerce at all levels. In its lowest function it organizes and articulates material sources. In its highest function it connects us with our internal capacity: the power of the mind.

As Jupiter generally represents the higher or abstract mind, Mercury indicates the lower or concrete mind, the intellect or informational mind. However, Mercury is not limited to this. It also shows the abstract mind in its discriminatory capacity and connects us with the Divine World, or the world of truth. Mercury rules writing, education, calculations, thoughts. It is the planets that move faster and so this indicates quick understanding, ease and plasticity in expression. Mercury is quick to correlate ideas and quick to exchange information or things of value. It shows the intellectual power and degree of mental development in life.

When Mercury assumes the role of AtmaKaraka, the soul's journey is especially marked by the power of intellect, communication and learning. Mercury is a planet of duality and adaptability. It governs the mind, speech, logic and the ability to absorb knowledge. For those with Mercury as AK, life lessons revolve around the way they express themselves, how they interact in the world through words and ideas, and how they develop a deeper understanding of the realities that surround them.

Individuals with Mercury like AtmaKaraka are on a mission to master the power of the mind and communication. For them, words are more than simple tools of expression: they are portals of transformation. There is a strong desire to learn and share knowledge, and their lives often revolve around intellectual processes, teaching, writing or any form of information exchange. However, the challenge is not just to acquire wisdom, but to use it ethically, clearly and sufficiently. Mercury as AK can also indicate the need to find balance between reason and emotion. Although these individuals may be inclined to rely on their sharp minds, there is an important lesson about integrating feelings with logic. They may face dilemmas related to the way they communicate, they may need to learn to be more patient, clear or flexible in their interactions. There is also an inclination to avoid hasty decisions, as Mercury can be quick to jump to conclusions without considering all the variables. This karmic path demands that natives develop a flexible mind, which welcomes different perspectives and is always open to evolving their thinking. Thus, spiritual growth for those with Mercury like AtmaKaraka does not just lie in accumulating information, but in transforming it into profound wisdom that can be shared with the world.

Image description: Emma Watson at the launch of the HeforShe campaign at the ONU in which she says: "the more I talk about feminism, the more I come across the reality of fighting for women's rights." The (brazilian) singer Sandy Leah, when she was honored at PUC (Pontifical Catholic University) said: "if I can give some advice, I would say: stay curious, be present in the here and now, question, participate, get involved and, above all, never underestimate the power of education to change the world." Emma Watson has a degree in English Literature and Sandy also has a degree in Literature. Both pursued academic degrees that require an advanced understanding of the language. This reflects a strong alignment with the Mercurian nature that values ​​the ability to analyze and convey ideas with clarity and depth. Angelina Jolie promotes a variety of causes, including environmental conservation, education and women's rights, and is best known for her advocacy on behalf of refugees. She advocates for refugees in several large-scale crises. Djamila Ribeiro (brazilian philosopher) in her speech at the ONU: "education plays a fundamental role in creating opportunities and expanding our worldview. Education has the power to transform people and institutions." People with Mercury atmakaraka tend to have a strong desire to share information, which makes them adept at engaging in debates, social discourses and conveying messages to the public.

Mercury, when it is at its highest degree, breaks the barrier and reveals humanity and human needs. Individuals have compassion and equity based not so much on feeling, but on objectivity and practicality. Mercury may value public opinion more than the truth, and becomes dependent and defensive of any involvement. He is the mind that has no real nature, but reflects everything that it considers to be reality.

Mercury is a childish planet and is considered the son of the Moon. He is not the mind that perceives, but can organize ideas. Mercury is the rational mind, the most articulate part of the subconscious (the Moon). In Sanskrit, Mercury is Budha, which means intelligence and is related to Buddhi, the faculty of determination by which we discern the real from the unreal (fully awakening, one becomes enlightened, a Budha). When this faculty judges reality not by appearances, but by discerning the transitory from the eternal, then it functions correctly and the superior power of Mercury is revealed. When we discriminate between names and shapes, we become trapped in the apparent reality of the external world. In the highest sense, Mercury is that faculty of truth and determination that discriminates the real from the unreal, the pure from the impure, truth from illusion. This is the most precise and perfect functioning of the mind. In this higher activity (atmakaraka), Mercury, the mind, is Vishnu, the pervasive consciousness who is also the divine son, the guiding cosmic intelligence, and the source of the great teachers.

It is ruled by Yama(the God of Death). He was cursed by his stepmother Chhayadevi for kicking her pregnant belly that his feet will be infested with maggots. He also was abandoned by his own mother Devi Sangya.Bharani natives have mother wounds.They do not share a good relationship with maternal figures.

Saturn gets debilitated in Bharani nakshatra.(He too has an injured foot which causes him to walk slowly) Saturn is known for having a very close relationship with his mother Chhayadevi.

Bharani natives have a peculiar way of walking.Their steps are often parallel and heavy

They are very aloof and introverted in nature.Wherever Bharani is in the chart,the native does not like to meet people.

They are very upright and moral individuals who have a strong faith in justice.

They also have to deal with a lot of undue accusations and baseless rumors throughout their lives. It's better that they do not pay any heed to those.

They are very wise in nature (as denoted by elephants). Elephants have a matriarchal society of their own and are regarded as one of the most intelligent creatures in the world.They take care of their young till adulthood and the adult children often visit their parents. They also have a funeral ritual of their own(both tying into the Bharani theme)

Association of Bharani with Yama (the God of Death) and womb signifies that Birth and Death are intertwined and one cannot exist without the other.

About karma

Karma is a buzzword that seems to be everywhere these days—in pop songs, magazines, and everyday conversations. Yet, it's often misunderstood, with many assuming karma always refers to something negative. But karma is far more nuanced than its popular portray. Let’s shed some light on the true essence of karma and explore its various types. Yes, you heard that right — karma comes in different forms, each with a unique role in shaping our lives and spiritual journey.

So, Karma, a cornerstone of Hindu philosophy, goes far beyond the common notion of “what goes around comes around.” It is a profound framework of action and consequence that governs not only our present lives but also our past and future. Understanding the types of karma can provide clarity on how our actions shape our spiritual journey and ultimate destiny.

Let us delve into the 4 primary types of karma, each playing a unique role in the cycle of life and rebirth:

Sanchita

Prarabdha

Agami

Kriyamana

Sanchita Karma: The Accumulated Karma

Sanchita karma refers to the accumulated store (like a databank) of actions and their consequences from all previous lifetimes. It represents the entirety of our karmic impressions, both positive and negative, held in a vast, cosmic reservoir.

Significance: Sanchita karma is the source from which portions are drawn to influence our current life.

Spiritual insight: Through spiritual disciplines like meditation, devotion, and selfless service, it is possible to neutralize or "burn" parts of this karmic backlog.

Astrological perspective: South Node (Ketu), the 12th house a.k.a. the house of Moksha and past lives. Both often provide hints about accumulated karmic debts and baggage. The same placement (same sign and, or same house) of Saturn (direct and retrograde), the planet of karma, in different divisional charts (vargas) speaks about an accumulated karmic debt throughout different lives in a certain life area.

Prarabdha Karma: The Karma in Action

Prarabdha karma is the segment of Sanchita karma that is "ripe" and manifests in our current life. It governs the major circumstances we experience, such as the family we are born into, health conditions, and significant life events.

Significance and analogy: It is often compared to an arrow that has already been shot; it must fulfil its trajectory.

Spiritual insight: While Prarabdha karma must be endured, how we respond to these circumstances determines our spiritual growth.

Astrological perspective: Lagna and its lord (its placement), the 6th house (house of debts, struggles, and obstacles), the 8th house (house of transformation and challenges) reveal areas of karmic testing. The influence of Saturn, the planet of karma, is significant. Its placement and aspects often point to the lessons and challenges one must face in a current lifetime.

Agami Karma: The Karma of the Future

Agami karma arises from the actions we perform in this lifetime. These actions create consequences that will manifest in future lives, adding to the reservoir of Sanchita karma.

Significance: Agami karma underscores the importance of living a conscious, virtuous life. Every thought, word, and deed contribute to shaping our future experiences.

Recommendation: By practicing dharma (righteousness) and cultivating self-awareness, we can sow the seeds of positive karma.

Astrological perspective: the 10th house (house of action, social reputation and career), the North Node (Rahu) - desires and areas of focus in this life, which contribute to future karmic outcomes. Applies to both the Rasi chart and Navamsha (Navamsha generally shows the second half of life and how the potential demonstrated in this divisional chart is implemented in the Rasi (natal) chart.))

Kriyamana Karma: The Immediate Karma

Kriyamana karma, often considered a subset of Agami karma, refers to the actions we perform in the present moment and their immediate consequences. Unlike Sanchita and Prarabdha karma, this type of karma is created and experienced within the same lifetime.

Example: Helping someone in need brings an immediate sense of joy and fulfilment.

Spiritual insight: Kriyamana karma offers real-time feedback, allowing us to recognize and correct harmful patterns of behaviour.

Astrological perspective: Dasha periods (especially current planetary transits) reveal present karmic influences and opportunities for immediate action or growth. Moon, representing the mind and emotions, often reflects the individual’s mental state and choices influencing immediate karmic patterns

Once again, these 4 types of karma are all interconnected, and the ultimate goal in Hindu philosophy is to transcend the cycle of karma and achieve moksha—liberation from the cycle of birth and rebirth:

Sanchita karma serves as the reservoir of all karmic potential collected from past lives.

Prarabdha karma represents the portion of this reservoir being experienced in the current life.

Agami karma and Kriyamana karma add new karmic seeds to the reservoir, shaping future lifetimes.

Karma is not merely a mechanism of reward and punishment; it is a tool for spiritual growth and self-discovery, leading the spirit to Moksha—liberation.

Hey, and another thing... I'd love to hear a little about the d9 chart. Someone was once told me that it can only be activated halfway through your life... and I've felt like it since forever so that scares me a little :( What can you say about this?

That's an interesting remark, thank you, I will develop D9's meaning more in the future. It's a fascinating subject. Yes, it's true. Some astrologers say that the D9 gets activated in your mid 30's only. It's false and true in the same time. D9 or navamsha represents your inner self, the real self that is hidden because the environment (represented by D1) doesn't allow your inner self to express itself openly. D9 is always in yourself from the beginning to the end. But the day you discover your real self only depends on you. Most people discover their D9 self in their mid 30's only because they're the extrovert type, their mind being more focused on the external environment, so, at the Saturnian age of 36, they end up reflecting about themselves and they find their D9 out. But, the other people, mainly the introverts, or those who are open to astrology etc, will be more likely to be aware of their hidden self earlier. So, don't worry. You're just more in touch with yourself and there are many people in that case too. 😊

Predicting endings with Khara Navamsha

The Khara Navamsha is an important tool in Vedic astrology for predicting life events like death and transformations. Navamsha analysis is necessary for accurate predictions.

There was a question thus this short post on analysing the Khara navamsha.  As per the classics the Khara navamsha is counted from the Birth degree /Lagna. It is the 64th navamsha from the ascendant degree. Thus the Khara navamsha lies in the 8th house. Generally we use Khara to find out the time of death. But apart from this final event of this life, we can also use the Khara for understanding…

[jeevanjali]

Navamsha Kundli: लग्न कुंडली में नवमांश कुंडली क्या है महत्व, क्यों है इतनी जरूरीNavmansh Kundali: आप सभी को ज्ञात है कि कुंडली में नवें भाव को भाग्य का भाव कहा गया है। यानि आपका भाग्य नवां भाव है। इसी प्रकार भाग्य का भी भाग्य देखा जाता है ,जिसके लिए नवमांश कुंडली की आवश्यकता होती है।

Venus in 7th House: Unveiling the Secrets of Your Marriage and Partnership

 The placement of Venus in 7th House of a birth chart holds a significant influence on people's relationships and partnerships. Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and harmony, finds its expression in the realm of partnerships, marriage, and close connections when located in the 7th House. This placement imbues the person with charm, diplomacy, and a desire for harmonious relationships. They have a natural inclination towards love and affection, seeking a partner who embodies beauty, balance, and shared values. Their relationships tend to be characterized by harmony, cooperation, and a deep appreciation for aesthetics. However, this placement can also indicate a tendency to become overly dependent on relationships for validation and self-worth.
