Day1 - Nakshatra Workshop and a few hints on Transits

It's here! Day1 of Nakshatra Workshop includes useful study materials about Ashwini, Bharani and Krittika.

The 17 slides linked to Day 1 can be now downloaded by all Members.

Until 22nd of May, we will have a better understanding of the entire list of 27 (+1) nakshatras. They are essential in understanding not only your Rasi Kundli (D1 chart) but also other divisional charts (Vargas) and daily/monthly/annual/ Special Transits.

As a member, you can use your accumulated Patreon Credits to book the personalised report Your Nakshatras. Learn here about how to use credits.

A few hints about Planetary Transits

Let's remember, in short, how planets change permanently in the sky, crossing through the entire System of 27 (+1) nakshatras:

- Moon changes zodiac sign every 2,5 days. Whether or not Transit Moon is auspicious for your Natal Moon (your Mind-perception of Reality at cognitive and emotional levels) this is calculated for you at least through Nava Tara system. This system is quite easy and you can learn it yourself! You may start with downloading Venus study material (day2) which have been released freely on our Patreon Page - referring to Nava Tara Rules. Those rules can be extended to all planets including Moon, starting with "Janma" nakshatra (the original nakshatra of the planet in question). A second method to calculate the Moon Transit (and confirm or infirm the findings through Nava Tara) is to count the Position of Transit Moon (TM) from Natal Moon (NM). Note the "benefic" positions: 1st (when TM is meeting NM in the same house); 3rd, 6th, 7th, 10th, 11th. These positions are theoretically the best, provided that no other aspects/conjunctions/influences from Malefics operate at that precise time. A third layer of analysis (and not the last) is to see in which "half" TM operates as compared to your Natal Moon (NM) and Natal Sun (NS). The "growing half" of TM revolution is named Shukla Paksha (S half) (approx 15 days) and the "descending half" is named Krishna Paksha (K half). In our workshops, all these details are explained. If you want to learn these rules directly by using your own personal chart, you can book the personalised books Moon and You or Secrets of the Moon - once you have sufficient credit on Patreon. This thorough, individualised investigation of the Moon will be most useful to you if the Moon is your Atma Karaka or Lagna Lord, if Moon is your Badakesh or located in the same nakshatra with Gulika/Maandi, if you are currently running Moon Maha Dasha, or if you are going through Sade Sati (Saturn's major transit influencing Moon excessively) or if you are going through Shani Ashtham (when Saturn transits in the 8th bhava from your NM) or maybe you are facing just an easier Dhaiya situation (Shani 4th from NM) etc. In all cases, mastering your personal Moon influences means mastering the 27 (+1) nakshatras, and "That One who masters Nakshatra is The Master of His/her Own Karma"!

- Sun changes sign every month, also crossing through nakshatras, since every sign includes 2-3 nakshatras totally or partially. Transit Sun's theoretically benefic positions as counted from Natal Moon are the following: 3rd, 6th, 10th and 11th.

Sun's power as your Atma Source can be analysed through comparisons with your Atma Karaka, Ashtakvarga, also through Nava Tara rules and through its intimate relation with Rahu - since Rahu is the only one capable of eclipsing the Sun. Important revelations come from the analysis of Sun-Saturn relations, as they are often described as "main enemies" - in reality, the worst enemy of the Sun is Rahu (the Head of the Snake - in a mythological system explained as The snake = Time = Saturn = Lord of Time; Rahu = The Head of the Snake and Ketu = The Tail of the Snake). In our understanding, Rahu is described in the Vedic Shastras as the First Sun who later on produced a "clone with reduced power" - and this fact is reconfirmed in BPHS where the power of Rahu is described as DOUBLE of Sun's Power. See more details in the study materials of Rahu Workshop - Creation - Day 1.

If either Sun or Rahu plays a major role in your life (Atma Karaka, Badakesh, DK, GK, L10, L7, L5 etc.) by using your accumulated Patreon Credits, as a member, you can book your personalised book Rahu and You.

- Mars transits from one sign to another in approx 2 months (variations operate due to retrograde status) and, apart from Nava Tara rules, we can also note the positions 3rd, 6th, 11th from NM. Mars in transit is never more distant than Transit Sun than max 7 bhavas. If Mars plays a major role in your life (Atma Karaka, Badakesh, DK, GK, L10 etc.) by using your accumulated Patreon Credits, as a member, you can book your personalised book Mars and You.

- Mercury takes between 15 and 60 days to change a sign, depending on its retrograde situations. Mercury never remains too distant from the Sun in Transit (max 2 signs distance). Its theoretically benefic positions from NM are: 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th and 11th. These are to be cross-checked with the other aspects/conjunctions/influences supported by each individual chart.

- Jupiter takes approx one year to change a sign/house. It's not a "coincidence" that Nadi Astrology is based on Jupiter, considered as Jeeva (life force) in all that moves on Earth. Jupiter in Nadi Astrology is considered the Native him/herself and each year of his/her life is analysed through Transit Jupiter (TJ). However, as per its relation with the Moon and nakshatras, Jupiter can also be studied through Nava Tara rules and through its positions counted from NM. The following are considered benefic positions in transit: 2nd, 5th, 7th, 9th and 11th.

- Venus takes approx 30 days to change a sign and is never more distant than max 2 bhavas from transiting Sun (Similar to Mercury). Benefic positions of Transit Venus (TV) as counted from Natal Moon (NM) are the following: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 8th, 9th, 11th and 12th. If Venus plays a major role in your life (Atma Karaka, Badakesh, DK, GK, L10 etc.) by using your accumulated Patreon Credits, as a member, you can book your personalised book Venus and You.

- Saturn takes approx 2,5 years to change a sign and is the slowest planet. Best positions are considered when in 3rd counted from Natal Moon (mirroring the inauspicious 3rd Aspect of Shani from the opposite direction). Also, 6th and 11th houses counted from NM are considered benefic. Shani (both Natal and in Transit) and Natal Moon have a very special/sensitive relation particularly during Sade Sati, Dhaiya, Ashtam and when Shani forms 3rd, 7th or 10th aspect. In some cases mental health can become seriously affected during these special transits. More details on Saturn have been presented in our recent Saturn Workshop (13-20 March 2021). Members facing Sade Sati special transit in their lives can use their Patreon Credits to book the personalised report on Sade Sati.

- Rahu & Ketu need approx 1,5 years to change a sign. They are studied always together, since the Nodal Axis has its own rules and fascinating secrets! Nakshatras play a major role in understanding the Nodal Axis, both natal and in transit. More details have been presented to Members in our recent Rahu Workshop. All newer Members can download the study materials related to previous workshops. If Rahu plays a major role in your life (Atma Karaka, DK, GK, co-ruler of your Lagna -Aquarius-, or co-lord of H3, 5, 7, 9, Ra MD etc.) by using your accumulated Patreon Credits, as a member, you can book your personalised book Rahu and You.
