Our Truth - The vote!

Image
Hello all, Namaste! All of you, my dear blog readers, know about my website- swaroopa.net . I have started my business, Swaroopa store , which can be accessed from Shop tab on my website, for Souls who are interested in a personal reading. Now to the post. As, I mentioned last week, I had stopped the follow.it subscription service for my blog readers, two days back. It came with a lot of unnecessary advertisements, and it was not aligning with the calm and balanced space of the blog, I wanted to maintain. After I cancelled the email subscription service, the good folks at follow.it , came back to me and decided to offer my blog readers, the subscription, that too their best, free of any charge to me, and advertisements free. No advertisements and free to me. So, I want to shout out a big Thank you to them. The reason for their offer was to help me towards encouraging and motivating my blog readers to capture their very best selves during this tough and perilous time of the ...

Intellectualization or Experience?

Hello all, Namaste! All of you, my dear blog readers, know about my website- swaroopa.net . I have started my business, Swaroopa store , which can be accessed from Shop tab on my website, for Souls who are interested in a personal reading. Now to the post. As I was mentioning, in the last post, I am planning to stop the follow.it, RSS feed. Unfortunately, I didn't find this week, time to do it. Most probably in the next ten days. Many times life creeps up on you and one never realizes that sometimes you just have to let go and go with the flow. So, would do it as soon as time permits me. Nowadays, I write so much, sometimes I have to literally bring myself to the ground to take care of the worldly errands. Trying. Okay, now to the post. Last week, we discussed how we should behave during this Covid-19 pandemic and what is our own responsibility and accountability towards our own life. It is only when we align our Soul, heart, intuition- voice of the Soul through the h...

Responsibility and accountability during Covid-19!

Image
Hello all, Namaste! All of you, my dear blog readers, know about my website- swaroopa.net . I have started my business, Swaroopa store , which can be accessed from Shop tab on my website, for Souls who are interested in a personal reading. Now to the post. Before going into this weeks post, I would like to do a slight change in the feeds of my blog. I used to subscribe to a feed called "Specific feeds", which they later sold or changed to "follow it". I find that it is loaded with advertisements and actually negates the very purpose of this blog itself- higher ideals and thoughts. Hence, I am planning to stop this RSS feed and go just back to Google Blogger free subscriber services. By next week, I would manually add every single email, that has been with "Follow it" back to the Google Blogger free subscriber service. Wait for a mail from Google. If you didn't get the email, please subscribe back using the blog "subscribe" button...

Responsibility and accountability- Part 1!

Image
Hello all, Namaste! All of you, my dear blog readers, know about my website- swaroopa.net . I have started my business, Swaroopa store , which can be accessed from Shop tab on my website, for Souls who are interested in a personal reading. Now to the post. Last week, we discussed how our own mindsets determine the way our life evolves. The choice is ours, whether to have a positive or negative mindset. The global circumstances itself have evolved into experiences that bring deep negative emotions. But in such a political and global health climate, if we give away our own inner spirit as well, how can we ever traverse this huge mental and emotional challenge? It is very much needed to keep a positive mindset even if the whole chaos is swirling around us. We have discussed this concept before. Where is the calmest space of a hurricane or a tropical cyclone? In the eye of the hurricane. The edges of the hurricane would be tearing houses, buildings and even bridges apart. But the...

Moola Nakshatra - A Curse or a blessing?

Image
As mentioned last week let us discuss the characteristic of the nakshatra, Moola and whether it needs to be feared as many in the society do. Before that, two weeks back we discussed what are Nakshatras and why they are calculated according to the placement of the Moon in the horoscope. In the Nakshatra group, when starting from Ashwini nakshatra, Moola comes as the nineteenth nakshatra. Now, why am I writing this post? What is so special about Moola Nakshatra? This post is an afterthought to the fact that in South India in some communities, there are two proverbs prevalent about the Moola Nakshatra. One is, "Aan Moolam arasalum, Pen Moolam Nirmoolam." Meaning- If a man is born in the Moola Nakshatra, he would rule the kingdom. If a woman is born in the Moola Nakshatra, she would uproot her base or home (in other words, she would destroy her home). The second proverb is "Moolathu mamiyar moolayile." Meaning- The mother-in-law of the Moola nakshatra becomes a ...

Ardra nakshatra - The inconsolable human!

Image
In this new year to help people, I am putting a sale on my readings. I have reduced the prices drastically 70-80%. Hope people take advantage of this price reduction.  As life was interfering, I was not able to write for the last three weeks. Also, the personal readings on my store are catching up slowly. That also keeps me away from writing. But I decided this week, I need to write and post a blog. As per the amazing response and comments I got for Moola, a Kethu ruled nakshatra, this time I thought I would tackle Ardra or Thiruvathira(i) in Malayalam/ Tamil, a Rahu ruled nakshatra. And today of all the days, the nakshatra under which I am writing this blog post is exactly Thiruvathirai or Ardra in the lagna of the current place chart where I am. Lagna is the physical form taking shape of the Ardra blog. Numerology: We have discussed Rahu many times. According to my perspective, Rahu is the grand illusion of the material world or Maya. Every human and even celestial beings ge...

Ashwathama - A lesson to be learned!

Image
Before starting this post, I want to reminisce a bit on our Blog journey. Last year in 2017, it was on Kerala (a state in India) New Year Day called Vishu, I published my first post. This year Saturday (April 14, 2018) is Vishu. So it has been one year since I started my writings. At this moment, I would like to Thank all,  for the encouragement I got from my immediate family, extended family, friends, blog readers and the greater world. It is your comments. views and encouragement that helps me to post every week topics that I assume to be important. I would also very much like to interact with my readers as well. If you feel any Moral, Ethical, Mythological, Philosophical, Astrological topic worth pondering on, please let me know through comments and I would try a stab at it. Thank you for a wonderful and inspirational year. Wishing all a very Happy Vishu! Namaste! Now to the post. Last week, we discussed a bit on the spiritual law of justice through the post of Kannagi , ho...

Satyam Vada! Dharmam Chara! (Speak your truth! Walk your purpose!)

Image
Hello all, Namaste! All of you, my dear blog readers, know about my website- swaroopa.net . I have started my business, Swaroopa store , which can be accessed from Shop tab on my website, for Souls who are interested in a personal reading. There is also the Swaroopa Store link, on my blog's left side. Now to the post. We have been dealing with a lot of philosophy for a long time. So, thought, why don't we discuss some leadership concepts by virtue of Saturn. Any way, the US is going to go through a momentous election, in another three weeks. So, thought, why don't we discuss some leadership perspectives? To make matters a bit interesting, I thought we would discuss it through the eyes of Saturn. Who is Saturn? In astrology (always Vedic astrology in this blog), Saturn is the time keeper. He is also the ruler of the material realm. In Hindu mythology, he was the son of Sun, and his mother, Chaya, the shadow of Sun's wife Samjhna. Once, Sun became very bright and she...

Kannagi - The incensed lady!

Image
Wishing all a fantastic week where you are able to put into actions the deeds needed to capture your true authentic Self and purpose. Every step we take intentionally leads to that greater realm and once we really figure out our true purpose the doors that open for us are grander and lovelier. The last couple of weeks we discussed two strong mythological ladies who stood strong on their principles, spoke their mind and are true and authentic examples of the divine feminine. Why don't we this week analyze a third lady who due to her anger and rage burnt down an entire city? This story comes in the Tamil history and mythology called 'Silapathikaram' (The tale of an anklet) where a very angry lady, Kannagi took to task the King as well as the city that did injustice to her. The anger of a lady when she feels truly deprived of justice is something to be fearful about. That is why Durga in the form of the protectress is worshipped even by the trinity of Gods in Hinduism, B...

Ganda Moola Nakshatra -The transformation!

Image
Hello all, Namaste! Hope all of you had a beautiful week where you were able to take all the disparate energies of your life, align it well towards the goals you have kept for your life. Last week we discussed the Nakshatra 'Moola' and how there are many social misconceptions associated with it's energies. Today let us discuss another aspect associated with Moola nakshatra and the house it sits in, which bring a more fear for those who know a slight bit of Astrology. It is called 'Ganda Moola' and Moola is one of the Ganda Moola lunar mansions. So this concept for Moola is called a 'Ganda Moola'.  What is Ganda Moola? In Astrology there are houses, and each house brings the energy of fire, earth, water, and air. Most of you know the Astrology houses, I assume. So according to the energies mentioned above the different house energies are- 1, Fire houses - Aries (Mesha), Leo (Simha), Sagittarius (Dhanus) 2, Earth houses - Taurus (Vrishabha), Virgo (Kan...

Draupadi -The bold Queen!

Image
Hope all of you are having a great week where you find the inner strength deep hidden within you to traverse the tough or challenging circumstances that could have been placed in your path. Every single experience in this earthly existence is a little bit more to know truly who we ourselves are. But many times in the chaos of the material realm we forget to capture the true essence of every experience. Last week we delved into the realm called 'Collective Unconscious' where all the historical experiences and the struggles we as humankind had to go through gets recorded in the human collective psyche as the 'Collective Unconscious'. The struggles we are going through with the fundamentalist movements all over the world can be looked at as an example of the 'Collective Unconscious' trying hard to prevent us from taking a wrong step towards progression lest we are wiped out as a race. But then the 'Collective Unconscious' also has no knowledge of the ne...
