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...

The Swaroopa Website!

Image
In this new year to help people, I am putting a sale on my readings. I have reduced the price of my readings drastically 70-80%. Hope people take advantage of this price reduction.  Last week, we discussed what are the true intentions behind my Swaroopa Store . The concept called Swaroopa or 'Authentic Self' itself started from an epiphany I was graced to have in late 2016. Before that I was living a life where my mind was saying something and my heart was prodding to do another thing. When we have two entirely different realities existing within us there is always an inner tussle and ensuing inner fights. But the person would have absolutely no clue about this truth. Only the mind becomes a jumbled mess where the person is not able to figure out the head or tail of who they are. I have lived a reality of knowing only a very small sliver of myself for 45 years. It took me seven to eight years of internal work and self-reflection to figure out this dynamic. When I started my...

The Swaroopa Store!

Image
In this new year to help people, I am putting a sale on my readings. I have reduced the price of my readings drastically 70-80%. Hope people take advantage of this price reduction. I would write a post about this on my Facebook page, profile, Instagram and other groups soon. Today I am writing about my Swaroopa store and the intentions behind creating it. Even though I created the company three years ago and the store two years back, I never wrote about it here or discussed my intentions. This post is about that. Let me elaborate on my thoughts and perspectives on my store. True potential: As all of you know, I started this blog four years ago. This career and creativity came as an afterthought of an epiphany I was given after the disastrous crash of my previous career and a subsequent midlife identity crisis. The one and only thought that bubbled up - "Have you ever considered your spiritual gifts?" Just a one-pointed question and nothing else. I had to figure out everyth...

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 ...

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...

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...

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...

Kanyakumari - A Goddess waiting!

Image
Wishing all a good week where you are able to pursue the next step towards the growth of your soul purpose. Last three weeks we dealt with some issues that are affecting the current world today.This week let us come back to Mythology and tackle the last Goddess/lady, whom we were planning to tackle for a long time. As mentioned before, in Vedic mythology, ladies were also very much important and part of the stories that were weaved together. In last week's post as well as the Ardhanariswara post, we tackled how the divine masculine, as well as the divine feminine, is much important to bring out the whole whether in the case of the individual or that of the world itself. So to show the importance of these concepts, many times stories of Shiva (divine masculine) and Parvathi (divine feminine) have been written, where one is longing for the other. In most of the stories Shiva and Parvathi, become together and the wholeness is restored. But there is also a story where the divine...
