Content: Universal Truth

Content: If you look deeply, if you look beyond mundane life, beyond the day-to-day life we live... If you contemplate on a night sky... you will see that the most intimate and complete relationship man owns is the relationship to the Universe. In fact, it is man's ultimate relationship: he takes birth, lives and merges back into it. Nothing happens outside of it; even his enlightenment happens in it. Just as the child grows in his mother's womb, man evolves in the cosmic womb. He is the microcosm of a tremendous cosmic macrocosm. Therefore, all components of man, from the grossest to the subtlest, come from the universe: his body, his mind, his energy and his very consciousness are elements of the cosmos. Universe and man are indivisible. Whatever happens in the Universe resounds in the human consciousness, and whatever happens in the human consciousness resounds in the Universe. Both are a unique consciousness.

Content: The Great Vedic Astronomy

Content: Man has been deeply fascinated by the Cosmos since the beginning of time. Early cultures worked on understanding the phenomena that happen in the sky; they observed them in order to understand what role the sky played in their lives. From these attempts, the science of astronomy was born.

Content: In this field, the ancient Vedic contribution is well known. The earliest references to astronomy are found in the Ṛg Veda, which are dated 2000 BC. Around 500 BCE, Āryabhaṭa, a great astronomer, presented a system that showed the earth to spin on its axis and considered the motions of the planets with respect to the Sun. He also discovered how the lunar and solar eclipses occur and was the earliest to discover that the orbits of the planets around the Sun are ellipses, just as Copernicus and Galileo concluded a thousand years later. He even determined the diameter of the Earth to be 5,000 yojanas, approximately 36,000 km, which is very close to the actual figure.

Content: Moon in Capricorn

Content: These traditions related these objects and their movements to natural events such as rain, drought, seasons and tides; they related them to auspicious or inauspicious occurrences on planet Earth. Jyotiṣa, the science of Vedic astrology, took birth out of observations and perceptions based on these astronomical phenomena. The first astronomers were actually Ṛṣis and sages, who understood the sky was a divine happening; they identified celestial objects with energies and Gods and connected astronomy to astrology.

Content: Moon in Capricorn

Content: Jyotiṣa Simply Put

Content: Astrology manifested in the inner vision of the ancient sages and Ṛṣis of India. These yogīs and enlightened beings were able to see beyond the realm of names and forms. They could feel and express the subtle reality that exists behind cosmic phenomena. As such, they perceived the primal powers of cosmic intelligence in the planets and stars (the macrocosm), and worshipped the cosmic powers within themselves (the microcosm) as powers of their being.

Content: By concentrating intensely on the Sun and other planets, they understood the movement of the life force in their body, and by meditating on the life force, they also came to understand the movement of the Sun and the planets in the heavens. Through this technique called samyama, they could unravel the secrets of the universe. They brought down their understanding into a system of Vedic science, which became known as Jyotiṣa: the science of light.

Content: Parāśara was one such sage. He is known for being the father of Jyotiṣa. He wrote the magnum opus Brhat Parāśara Hora Śāstra, which systematically explains the theory of predictive astrology. According to history, he is the grandson of Vaśiṣṭa and also father of Veda Vyāsa, who wrote the great epic Māhābhārata. The depth of his astrological knowledge was so great that one evening while crossing a river in a boat, he casually looked at his favorite stars in heaven and suddenly realized it was an exceptionally auspicious moment. He concluded that if a child were conceived at that moment, he would be an expert in the scriptures. So he told this to the lady rowing the boat and requested that she marry him. She agreed and the son born out of their spiritual union was Veda Vyāsa!

Content: Moon in Capricorn

Content: By observing the movements of the celestial bodies through time and space, the science of Vedic Astrology can be applied to each human incarnation to encourage the soul to develop to its fullest potential.

Content: In Paramahamsa Nithyananda's own words:

Content: 'The moment the consciousness enters the body, the energy level of the cosmos at the time of birth gets printed in that consciousness. Your inner space gets a print of the cosmic energy level and the position of the nine major energy centers of the solar system.

Content: The astrological planets are not only astronomical, they are energies. A particular energy of push and pull exists between them. The different energy positions clearly decide the cosmic energy level during the time of birth. Based on that, Jyotiṣa will be able to predict the course of life. Understand, not exact incidences because you have freedom. You have freedom to decide whether to sit here or not, to read this or not.

Content: Moon in Capricorn

Content: The major course of life- if you will get enlightened or not can be predicted. Principles can be predicted, not policies! Having an idea about your horoscope will give you intelligence and acceptance in your life: intelligence to take decisions and the acceptance to bear the inevitable things. According to me, a seeker should have a basic knowledge about his horoscope.’

Content: Jyotiṣa and Living Enlightenment

Content: Jyotiṣa can help one to read his destiny. But what is actually destiny?

Content: There are only two types of destinies:

Content: The first one is destiny as defined by a dictionary: destiny lived within the boundaries of the ego, with its own expectations, hopes, desires, successes and failures. It is constantly changing. Because it evolves under mind’s law, it is mechanical, accidental and coincidental. This ‘destiny’ is lived in the dimension of the mind, so it has no existential reality in itself. It is nothing more than a reproduction of one’s past in the

Content: Moon in Capricorn

Content: present, which conditions the future in a mechanical way.

Content: The other destiny is existential and ultimate; it is the flowering of consciousness into enlightenment. Understand: the only thing predestined in the scheme of life is that man is meant to evolve to reach enlightenment. The rest is just incidental; it happens for no other reason than to teach and mold the being towards seeking enlightenment. Living enlightenment is all about making conscious choices, free from the unconscious push and pull of the saṃskāras.

Content: The further you wander from your center, the more you lose yourself in your periphery, the more you are subjected to incidents and accidents. Whereas, when you live enlightenment, you are centered, you are within your boundaries, you are aware. You become predestined, because your predestination is to reach enlightenment; your destiny is to become more and more aware. Then you become the agent of your fate,

Content: and you move beyond grahas’ influences. This is how you come to terms with your karmas.

Content: For that to happen, a simple understanding of the forces at work in you can help clarity manifest in your daily routine. In addition to this, you can follow a couple of guidelines to keep your body healthy with the science of Āyurveda and raise your energy level with yoga, the use of gemstones, rudrākṣa beads, mantra chanting, and a basic knowledge of your psychological tendencies coupled with the ancient Vedic wisdom expressed by the great enlightened Masters.

Content: All these remedies will bring lucidity about your mental set-up and support for eventually dropping your conditionings, unclutching from your mind and emotions and fostering your intelligence and energy to Live Enlightenment.

Content: Understanding Grahas and Nakṣatras

Content: The grahas are energy centers, energy fields that planets exert in the universe. Each of the nine main grahas in Vedic astrology has a specific energy field that creates specific effects on our planet Earth. For example, the moon has a strong impact on the movements of the sea and on plant growth; it even influences the mind of human beings. In the same way, the major energy centers produce an effect on living beings and influence their potential at birth, their mental set-up and, therefore, the course of their destiny. In Jyotiṣa, grahas are often referred as the agents of the karmas for which the soul took birth. Human personality and life have their counterparts in the structure of the cosmic physiology, represented by the grahas and the nakṣatras.

Content: There are nine grahas (nine influences or ‘planets’) in our solar system: the Sun (Sūrya), the Moon (Candra), Mars (Mangal), Mercury (Budha), Jupiter (Guru), Venus (Śukra), Saturn (Śani) and two nodes called Rāhu

Content: 12

Content: Moon in Capricorn

Content: (ascending lunar node) and Ketu (descending lunar node). These represent archetypes. Sūrya, for example, represents consciousness; Candra represents the cosmic mind; Budha represents the cosmic intellect, etc.

Content: Most of the calendars of the world have been set by the Sun's and Moon's movements (measuring the day, month and year) and were of great importance for agriculture, because the harvest depended on planting at the correct time of the year. But the Vedic tradition uses a system of 27 nakṣatras to calculate months. The nakṣatra is the constellation in which the moon sits in the heaven at a particular time. In each month, the full moon sits in a particular constellation, and the Vedic month will have this nakṣatra's name.

Content: Each nakṣatra falls under the rule of one, sometimes two grahas. Each graha is assigned three nakṣatras. For example, if the child is born when the moon sits in Aśvini nakṣatra, his birth star will be Aśvini, and his sign will be Aries (called mesha in Sanskrit), ruled by planet Mars (Mangala). Bharani and Kṛttika, the

Content: Moon in Capricorn

Content: two next nakṣatras, also fall under the lordship of Aries sign. All three will therefore have similar characteristics and will influence the child's mind and consciousness at the time of birth, shaping his destiny.

Content: Saturn in Vedic Scriptures

Content: On the insistence of Śiva, Pārvati fasted for a year to propitiate Viṣṇu so that he would grant her a son.

Content: Lord Viṣṇu , after the completion of the sacrifice, announced that he would incarnate himself as her son in every eon.

Content: Accordingly, Viṣṇu was born to Pārvati as a charming infant.

Content: This event was celebrated with great enthusiasm and all the gods were invited to take a look at the baby.

Content: However Śani, Saturn, the son of Sūrya, hesitated to look at the baby since he was cursed with the gaze of destruction.

Content: Moon in Capricorn 17

Content: Pārvati insisted that he look at the baby, which Śani did.

Content: Immediately the infant's head fell off and flew away. Seeing Śiva and Pārvati grief stricken, Viṣnu mounted on Garuda, his divine eagle, and rushed to the banks of the Pushpa-Bhadra River, from where he brought back the head of a young elephant.

Content: The head of the elephant was joined with the headless body of Pārvati's son, thus reviving him. The infant was named Gaṇeśa and all the Gods blessed Gaṇeśa and wished Him power and prosperity.

Content: Healing stone: Amethyst

Content: Saturn confers the urge to move from the gross material environment to a spiritual goal. Under its influence, the soul experiences its own greatness but meets endless outer and inner limitations, which produce sufferings as it strives to actualize its potential.

Content: Capricorn symbolizes chastity and purity. Its natives are austere and disciplined, courageous and enduring, like the goat which climbs unstable mountain peaks. They try to find stability in either spiritual or mundane life. The qualities of self-sacrifice and renunciation are developed in them.

Content: In terms of achievement, it can show the best as well as the lowest result in life. It can show a strong ego development or a complete surrender to the divine will. Hard working, persevering, tenacious, they can achieve great things once they welcome their limitations. They often reach their goal late in life.

Content: Moon in Capricorn 19

Content: But they can be very narrow in their views, rigid, cut off from their emotions, hard hearted or too intellectual and caught in their senses.

Content: In Capricorn, the individual has to understand his limitations to grow and move towards his destiny: Saturn is the cosmic agent which teaches awareness to its chosen ones, sometimes through harsh lessons. It is also affiliated to Kāla Bhairava, the principle of time in the universe.

Content: Capricorn Nakṣatras: Uttarāṣāḍa, Śravaṇa and Dhaniṣṭa

Content: your own personal efforts but with the appropriate support of all the gods.

Content: You can be working like a workaholic, with extreme persistence when motivated by a project, but can step back and not finish what you started.

Content: A strongly placed moon in the natal chart of an Śravaṇa-born can make you reticent to share your trust easily. You are a good mediator, maybe good consultant or advisor in many fields. You are usually respected, noble but of wavering mind.

Content: This instability can lead you to practice mantra chanting, tantra and other rituals. Some may even be engaged in penance and tapas, in order to gain the knowledge of enlightenment.

Content: Under this nakṣatra, all actions are clearly motivated by a growing spiritual urge. The person may be introspective and self-centered, as he perceives the universal consciousness in him and contemplate on it. Over time, the person acquires humbleness in life.

Content: Moon in Capricorn 21

Content: You can be attracted to careers such as research, the military, the hunter, boxer or fighter for a cause, government jobs, and social work.

Content: Tendencies of a person born under Śravaṇa

Content: Śravaṇa is also called ‘the Star of learning’. It is the birth star of Goddess Sarasvatī who brings knowledge, music, and eloquence to humanity. This nakṣatra is also symbolized by an ear, reflects the ability to hear the cosmic sound, and gives a meditative disposition to the native. It represents transcendental knowledge, and particularly, the knowledge of the Vedas.

Content: One of its great features is outer and inner silence.

Content: Under Śravaṇa, you may have an urge to be alone, silent. You surely have wisdom, and are able to direct people to their appropriate path in life. Therefore, a degree of wisdom is conferred here.

Content: But be aware not to be overly rigid or too conditioned by principles and values that cripple you at times. You have to overcome some seriousness.

Content: But first, you may work to be financially stable, and then carry on your search.

Content: Your feeling of low self-esteem will disappear with time and patience; often, you progress slowly, but very steadily. You will do well in professions such as teaching, speech therapy, linguistics, astrology, scholarship, business, geology, research, and the travel industry.

Content: Tendencies of a person born under Dhanisṭa

Content: Dhanisṭa is known as ‘the Star of Symphony’. Its symbol is a drum and a tablā (a small drum); both instruments symbolize richness and fullness of sound.

Content: In a sense, Dhanisṭa deepens the impulse of Śravaṇa’s influence to perceive the truth, and makes it more practical. Such a person will combine the balance of the meditator, and the energy of the warrior.

Content: Many seers are born under this nakṣatra, and its extreme energy can bring difficulties into ordinary people’s life. Dhanisṭa’s life force can lead to great spiritual attainment, as well as the opposite.

Content: Factors that can balance vata are warm and soothing food with added oil and fat, as well as sweet tastes. Cold items should be avoided and caffeine should be stopped, as it strains vata's nervous system. Mental and emotional peace and lifestyle routines are important to restore and maintain balance. Vata can be corrected by using warm sesame oil for self-massage. If you can't massage the whole body, at least apply warm oil on the feet and scalp. Maintaining a regular routine in terms of eating, sleeping and other activities will also help you to unclutch the mind.

One should avoid drinks with high caffeine as vata finds it disturbing. As a snack, it is better to prefer nuts that are heavy and oily, as opposed to dry and salty.

Content: All sweet fruits are good for vata. One should avoid unripe fruit that are too astringent. Cinnamon, cardamom, cumin, ginger and cloves should be favored.

Content: Mantra for Capricorn

Content: Aum hrīṁ Nityānandāya namaḥ

Content: (Om Hreem Nithyanandaya Namaha)

Content: In this mantra, Aum is the primordial sound and is the representation of Śiva’s energy, the male aspect of the universe. Actually, Aum is the cosmic sound that pervades the grahas, their movements and their effects on us.

Content: The Bīja mantra (seed sound), Hrīṁ, has no linguistic meaning but encloses a powerful vibration which attunes you to the primordial energy from which the grahas originate: the female energy, Śakti.

Content: Nithyananda means Eternal Bliss and invokes the truth which is our true nature, and the nature of our own intelligence. It is the pūrṇa mūla mantra (the complete mantra) because it represents a straight path to both Śakti (success in this world) and to Śiva (success in the cosmic world) which is ‘enlightenment’.

Content: Moon in Capricorn

Content: Namaha means 'I surrender' my ego to Existence, to the Master. Thus this sacred mantra awakens the completeness and fulfillment inside us and balances the male and female energies which exist inside every one of us.

Content: The repetition of this mantra is a powerful technique which can be performed throughout the day as you go about your daily routine. It can also be uttered aloud 108 times every morning. The number 108, which is a multiple of 9, has been sacred since time immemorial. That is because the number 9 is the limit of all numbers: 0 to 9 is all one needs to make up an infinite amount of numbers. Therefore, 108 symbolizes and connects you to infinity.

Content: Its beautiful sound should be pronounced clearly and as loudly as possible and from the navel region.

Content: Eventually, this mantra will replace your inner chatter and create silence in your mind. Your whole being integrates itself towards enlightenment which leads you out of the dynamic of karma and planetary effects.

Content: Five Techniques for a Capricorn Mind

Content: Harness your intuition!

Content: You usually have flair and drive to sense what needs to be done and how it should be done. You should learn to harness your intuition in your day-to-day life! You often feel you cannot afford to trust it in your practical life... Feeling it may mislead you... Did you forget all genius decisions, discoveries and masterpieces were made out of sheer intuition? Don’t let your practicality and goals cut you off from your intuition. It is too big a price to pay! This intuition is the very path to beautiful mysticism in your life. Be very clear, when you reject it, you close your door to the higher aspects of life and reduce existence to an object. There may be a plan for business in your life, but your life should not be a business plan only!

Content: Watch yourself

Content: Whenever you feel depressed, just remain with it. You cannot be depressed for long because by its

Content: Moon in Capricorn

Content: 59

Content: very nature, your inner space constantly clears itself. In this world nothing is permanent; everything fluctuates. And the world cannot change its basic law for you so that you remain depressed forever! Nothing is here forever; everything is moving and changing. Existence is like a river; it cannot stop for you, just for you, so that you remain depressed forever. If you watch your depression, you will feel that even your depression is not the same today that it was yesterday; it is different, it has changed. Just watch, remain with it and don't do anything. This is how transformation happens. Fighting it will not solve the problem; it will only increase it and leave you frustrated. Don't let your resistances bring negative feelings towards yourself. And be sure to take care of your health.

Content: Have Confidence!

Content: It feels difficult to come out of the following inner chatter: “Whatever I do is wrong. People are never happy with what I achieve…Nobody cares for the efforts I'm putting into things.” Your outer personality,

Content: 60

Content: Moon in Capricorn

Content: your self-image, clothing, body language, and ways of presenting yourself to the outer world never seem right. So, again, you feel stirred by low self-esteem and a need of recognition. When this low mood happens, watch yourself carefully! Are you suffering from someone else's negative views or from your own constant self-criticism? Actually, nobody can hurt you unless you give silent permission. If you look sincerely, you'll find the inner critic is far more virulent than the outer. So to get out of this feeling, beware of your inner chatter and use healing words for yourself. You will see, your problem does not actually exist!

Content: Passion with Patience!

Content: Enlightenment is passion with patience. Passion alone will raise a great number of thoughts: this passion, this rajas, will allow you to be successful in the outer world. If you have just patience, you will deeply accept everything and earn peace in the inner world. But with either one or the other alone, you will not get the ultimate experience of enlightenment which

Content: Moon in Capricorn

Content: gives you the fulfillment in both worlds. Enlightenment is the total sum of passion plus patience. It is a mix of a strong will and a deep prayer that raise your frequency to a higher level, to a different dimension. Through that alone will you be able to break through all your automaticities to awaken the non-mechanical part of the brain. They will bring revolution to your experience of reality. Be passionate, be patient! Be actively passive.

Content: Stop worrying, start living!

Content: You cannot believe your life can be lived without day-dreaming. If you live in super consciousness, whatever dream you have will give you deep satisfaction. These dreams will be a clear vision. Your mind has convinced you that you cannot live without fantasy: that is why you suffer. You can live without day-dreaming! You may feel you have to plan things to be able to survive. But more often than not, instead of planning things, you are worrying and limiting your growth with your worries. From today, have the courage to live with spontaneity. The people who have the
