1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,840
First, the dictionary definitions. Who is an empath and who is a narcissist according

2
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:13,560
to dictionary? Empath, a person who has strong capacity for empathy, the ability to understand

3
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:20,280
and share the feelings of others, often to an intense degree. Psychological characteristics

4
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:29,480
of an empath. Empathy, empaths deeply understand and share the emotions of others. Fensitivity,

5
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:36,760
they are highly attuned to the emotional states of those around them. Intuition. Empaths have

6
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:44,120
a strong gut instincts and can sense the emotional distress in others. Compassion. They possess

7
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:51,960
a deep well of compassion and a desire to help others. Boundary challenges, big one. Empaths

8
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:56,960
may struggle with setting healthy emotional boundaries potentially leading to emotional

9
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:05,600
exhaustion. Narcissists. A person who has an excessive and often unhealthy self love

10
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:12,280
or admiration and inflated sense of self importance in a lack of genuine empathy for others.

11
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:18,760
Right away, you can see both are opposites. Narcissists often seek constant admiration

12
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:26,040
and validation from others while exhibiting manipulative and self centered behaviors.

13
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:30,960
Endiosity. Narcissists have an exaggerated sense of self importance and often believe

14
00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:38,640
they are superior to others. Need for admiration. They constantly seek admiration, attention

15
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:48,120
and validation from others to bolster their self esteem. Lack of empathy. Narcissists typically

16
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:55,560
lack genuine empathy and struggle to understand or care about the feelings of others. Manipulation.

17
00:01:55,560 --> 00:02:01,920
They may engage in manipulative behaviors to maintain control and achieve their own goals

18
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:09,800
often at the expense of others. Fragile self esteem. Despite their outward confidence,

19
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:16,040
narcissists often have a fragile self esteem that is easily wounded leading to defensive

20
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:23,600
or aggressive reactions when challenged. Now let us see the two dominant drivers of narcissism

21
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:31,360
and empathy. We are considering for the purposes of this study, Rahu as the narcissist when

22
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:37,600
it is in the first house, Ketu as an empath when it is sitting in the first house. We

23
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:43,480
are talking only the first house because that's dominantly where the ego resides. The eagerness

24
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:52,480
or the eagolessness is empath versus dynamic. Narcissist dynamic. So Rahu as a narcissist

25
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:58,560
will give what exaggerated sense of self importance. Rahu in the first house can contribute to

26
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:04,280
exaggerated sense of self importance leading individuals to overestimate their abilities

27
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:10,800
and achievements. Seeking external validation. Those with these placement may have strong

28
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:16,520
desire for external validation and may go to great plans to gain recognition and admiration

29
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:25,320
from others often at the expense of genuine self esteem. Illusion of grandeur. Rahu's

30
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,960
influence can create an illusion of grandeur causing individuals to present themselves

31
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:36,640
in a way that exaggerates their accomplishments and status. Materialistic pursuits. This placement

32
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:43,120
may lead to excessive focus on material wealth and positions as a means of bolstering one's

33
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:50,520
self esteem and self worth. See Rahu lacks this. It wants to gain this. Manipulative behavior.

34
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:56,080
Rahu in the first house can sometimes encourage manipulative behavior where individuals use

35
00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:03,200
deception or self promotion as a means of maintaining the self image and gain the admiration

36
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:11,000
they seek. Ketu as an empath on the other side marked in the charts here as you can see.

37
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,600
Ketu is in the first house here. Rahu is in the first house as a narcissist. Ketu in the

38
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:22,960
first house as an empath. What does Ketu behave as an empath? Deep empathetic insight. Ketu's

39
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:29,760
detachment can paradoxically lead to deep understanding and empathy for others experiences.

40
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:34,680
As individuals with this placement often have a unique ability to perceive and sympathize

41
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:42,520
with the underlying emotions and struggles of others. Non-judgmental empathy. They tend

42
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:49,280
to offer non-judgmental empathy as detached nature to themselves allows them to accept

43
00:04:49,280 --> 00:04:56,160
people as they are without imposing their own beliefs or values on others.

44
00:04:56,160 --> 00:05:01,560
Emotional healing. Some with Ketu in the first house may have a natural gift for helping

45
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:08,080
others and heal emotionally or spiritually offering a safe space for individuals to explore

46
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:15,560
their feelings and experiences without the fear of criticism. Intuitive empathy. Their

47
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:21,040
intuitive nature may enable them to sense others emotions without the need for verbal

48
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:29,840
communication making them practically tuned to unspoken emotions and needs. Passion and

49
00:05:29,840 --> 00:05:37,080
acceptance. They often possess the compassionate accepting disposition which can be comforting

50
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:42,360
for those who seek understanding and empathy in their presence.

51
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:48,440
Now let's examine the impact of planets which sit with Rahu in the first house for narcissism.

52
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:54,640
We are talking only about Rahu in our first part. That's the narcissist dynamic. Rahu

53
00:05:54,640 --> 00:06:01,320
in the first house. What if Saturn sits with Rahu in the first house? What happens?

54
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:06,520
Narcissistic tendencies suppressed. Saturn tends to suppress everything. Saturn's influence

55
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:12,120
can sometimes act as a restraining force on the narcissistic tendencies. It may encourage

56
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:20,280
the individuals to be more cautious about displaying old narcissism. Emphasis on reputation.

57
00:06:20,280 --> 00:06:26,000
Narses presence may make the individual more concerned with their public image and reputation.

58
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:32,520
They may strive to maintain a facade of responsibility and respectability.

59
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:37,880
Control self importance. While there may be still a desire for self importance, Saturn

60
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:43,640
can add an element of control and discipline preventing narcissism from becoming too covert.

61
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:53,400
We'll see that. What if Mars is placed with Rahu in the first house?

62
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:59,120
Intensified narcissistic traits because Mars is a driver, Mars is aggressive. Mars can intensify

69
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:43,360

70
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:48,880

72
00:07:54,680 --> 00:08:01,960
