YOGAS IN ASHTAKAVARGA

In the horoscope the bhavas are divided into four categories. They are Kendras(1,4,7,10), Panaparas (2,5,8,11) and Apoklimas (3,6,9,12). Kendras represent first part of life Panaparas represent middle part and Apoklimas represent last part of life. Total the number of bindus in the SAV in all the three parts separately. That part of the life will be happy where the number of bindus is more when compared to other parts. Basing on this different yogas are formed in the horoscope.

If the bindus in the second part are less than the first and third parts Dhamaruka yoga is formed. The life will be happy in the first and last phases of life.

When the number of bindus in first part is more than 2nd , the number of bindus in the 2nd are less than 3rd and the number of bindus in 3rd is less than 1st , Veena yoga is formed. This also indicates happiness and prosperity just like Kahala yoga.

DREAMS

There are three states (Avastas) for us. They are Jagrath, Swapna and Sushupta states.

In first state the person will be aware of the environment and nature. In the second state the person will be getting dreams in sleep. In the third state the person will have good sleep without any dreams. There is one more state called “Tureeam”, Samaadhi.

The first three states cover the experiences of a person in the physical existence.

 

CAUSES OF DREAMS:

The causes of dreams are many and mainly depend upon the physical and mental states. The dreams may be due to the experience in the Jaagrath Avasta or due to the unfulfilled desires buried in the mind.

Bad dreams are generally seen in fever or acute pain. Dreams are induced by external objects also. Unfavourable and dirty atmosphere can cause bad dreams. At the time of sleep sweet sounds give sweet dreams. Distrubed mind can also cause bad dreams.

Freud says that lust, hatred, desire, jealousy and other disturbed feelings can also bring dreams.

Mr.C.G.Jung, a psychologist of the west says that Dreams are not mere embodiment of suppressed wishes and fears but they convey much more.

 

When man sleeps at night for rest or for the digestion of food, sense organs merge with the mind. Mental experiences without the sense objects constitute dreams. Thus Dreams are experiences of man in sleep where there is no feeling of his physical existence.

 

As per Charaka samhita, the dreams are of seven types.

 

“Dhrishtam Shrutaanubhootam cha Praardhitam kalpitam tathaa

Bhaavajam doshajam chaiva swapnam saptavidham vidhuhu ”

 

  1. Seen by eyes
  2. Heard by ears
  3. Experienced by other sense organs
  4. Desired ones
  5. Imagined by mind
  6. indicators of good or events that are to take place &
  7. Arising out of humours , Vaata (wind), Pitha (Bile) and Kapha (Phlegm)

 

There is a mention of bad and good dreams in Puranas and Aurvedic literature.

 

Use of dreams in Aurveda:

Dreams occur due to varience in humours Vaata, Pitha and Kapha ( wind, Bile and Phlegm). The detection of the afflicted humour can be identified by the dream a person got.

A person afflicted Vaata (Wind) dreams black colour, winds and walking on clouds.

A person afflicted by Pitha (Bile) dreams bright things like fire, gold, Sun, flames etc.

A person afflicted by Kapha dreams watery things, rivers, ocean, snowy mountains.

 

WHEN TO EXPECT THE RESULTS OF DREAM:  

  1. Dreams seen in the first part of the night will come into effect with in one year.
  2. Dreams seen in the 2nd part of the night will fructify within six months
  3. Dreams seen in the 3rd part of the night will fructify within 3 months

Ovulation, Menstrual cycle and conception in astrology

  1. The ovulation and menstrual cycles are caused by moon and mars. Moon is a watery planet and Mars is fiery by nature. Their combination makes pittha the rajas (ovum).
  2. When the transit moon is placed in an upachaya rasi from the chandra rasi of the woman the uterus is unclean and insemination at that time will not yield pregnancy.
  3. The moon placed in a non upachaya rasi should also be aspected by mars.
  4. The man should have a transit moon placed in an upachaya rasi aspected by a benefic male planet (Guru).
  5. The woman must be in her rutu period (ie:- 16 days form the first day of the menstrual cycle.)
  6. Pregnancy occurs under the above circumstances if there is no hindrance due to past karma and the man’s and woman’s reproductive health is fine. The above are the conditions for normal conception.
  7. If there is a problem in ovulation or menstruation due to prarabdha karma chandra and mars should be essentially propitiated.
  8. If the problem does not have its roots in past karma it should be treated with medicine.
  9. This makes 3 clear points. The ovum not getting fertilized during a cycle can be due to  Unfavourable positions of moon and/or mars.
  10. Past karma.
  11. Health grounds.
