Hello wonderful people. Welcome back. We are
discussing how to determine your core values.
It's a big talk in modern psychology. So I am
bridging Jyotish or the Vedic Astrology system
with modern psychology. I always maintain up
until now unless someone can prove me otherwise
that Jyotish is a superset and all of modern
psychology is a subset of Jyotish. That is to
say everything that is psychology, Freudian psychology,
any psychology of modern analysis of mind can
be mapped into Jyotish and not the other way
around. Because let's face it, all of psychology
is essentially a talk therapy, essentially a
bunch of worksheets. But Jyotish goes beyond
that into occult and into actually creating quick
results and remedies and change in the individual
personality. But never mind that. Now we are
discussing external cause versus internal cause.
So what is the causative factors in the external
world in your natal chart which determine your
core value that is the Rahu, the north node of
the moon wherever it is sitting in your chart
is going to determine the causative factors how
it will appear in the external world. Rahu has
everything to do with the external world visibility
wherever it is placed, whichever nakshatra, whichever
house, whichever sign and so on. And of course,
there is a Mahadasha play out also. That's also
there on this channel, if you want to investigate.
The internal cause, what happens within you is
deeply determined by the opposite end, that is
the south node of the moon or the ketu. So that's
the internal factor, but that you have to consider
in Navamsa or in your natal chart. Natal chart
is where it will show up in physical reality,
but the internal cause, what disturbs you, what
disturbs your maternal DNA, what is the causative
factor inside you, is determined by Ketu in your
Navamsa chart. So, external cause, Rahu in your
natal chart, internal cause, Ketu in your Navamsa
chart. That's the discussion here, okay. and
what core values it leads to. So first I have
to explain this core values worksheet that I've
created. It will explain quite a bit. You can
download it for yourself. The description and
explanation will follow here and the link to
download that from my Google Drive will be in
the description box of this video. You can download
it, do it yourself, leave comments, queries and
so on. Okay, now let us dive into the discussion
of the Excel sheet first and then followed by
the explanation of what it means to have external
causative factors as Rahu, internal causative
factors as Ketu, and what different sort of examples
will play out in your life so that you get a
better deeper understanding of it. So listen
in. So on your screen right now, you can see
the Excel worksheet as your level. link directly
on my Google Drive to this. You can download
this and work it yourself. This can also be a
self -help. This can also be an investigation
if you're a mainstream counselor, psychologist,
etc. So this Excel worksheet basically is taken
off a good source, reliable source on the internet.
These columns, the central column you see over
here, core values, are a set of 100 value systems
if you scroll through. Which will give you what
it is you're looking for what resounds with you
the most, okay? So there are totally hundred
of them read right from A to Z in alphabetical
order which says What is it? We are trying to
measure. We are trying to measure hundred parameters.
So kind of go slow on this I urge you not to
rush through this whole thing. It's quite deep
and it's quite revealing you might say. So first
is the core values which are listed over here.
There are totally 100 core values we work for
as humans and the category of external internal
you don't have to bother with these columns.
This is all merged and matched and all that see
external plus status gives external status and
so on. So this is the way it is mapped. external
and internal status, responsibility, action,
cause, creation. And all you have to do is focus
when you download this excel sheet on these answers
column. You have to rate each one on a scale
of 1 to 10. I have just done a sample here. Be
very careful how you rate yourself. Don't give
full marks to everything. No, this is not a competition.
Okay. This is for you to understand your core
values. What makes sense to you? And it's a scale.
It's not a black and white. It is not a yes and
no answer. So 1 to 10 we have evaluated. Colors
will change by themselves. Ignore all those other
things. You have to focus only on giving yourself
scale of 1 to 10 against each one of these core
values where you stand. Suppose I say accountability
matters to me a lot. That is 10 marks. give yourself
zero generally wherever you find a no value attachment
that's the important thing the instructions for
use are here which says give yourself zero generously
if these values you do not normally consider
for yourself try and avoid scaling every value
evenly okay because we want to get to the core
and all these things are calculated these values
and focus areas everything is calculated there
are by charts and so on So in terms of planets,
in terms of Jyotish, what does this mean? Your
external world, external status is dominantly
Sun in your natal chart. This pie chart is fully
for your natal chart. External status being Sun,
external responsibility being Saturn, external
action being Mars, external cause being Rahu
or the North Node of the Moon. external creation
being Venus. And what are the descriptions here?
See the listed ones. External status is that
which the self gets from the outside world. Your
status in the world, that's the sun in your natal.
External responsibility, that which the self
holds responsible to in the external world, that's
Saturn. External action, that which the self
takes action in the outside world, that's your
Mars. external cause that which is caused by
external world to drive the self that is your
Rahu invariably I have seen in every chart your
external creation that which is created by the
self in the external world is Venus now Venus
is the only thing common between external and
internal creations you create essentially Venus
on this earth plane So the internal status that
which the self gets from within is moon in your
Navamsa. Internal parts all of these planets
shown is only your Navamsa by the way. Internal
responsibility is your Jupiter, whatever you
hold accountable. That which the self holds responsible
to itself, it's a very highly internalized planet
Jupiter. Doesn't show in the external world.
External world only sees your face. Internal
world is your Jupiter. Internal action is shown
by Mercury or intellect, which is hidden. Jupiter,
Mercury, quite hidden. That by virtue of which
the Self takes action in the outside world, caused
from within. Ketu, once again, is a very internal
point. Internal cause is Ketu. See where Ketu
is placed in your Navamsa. That is what is...
driving yourself in the external world which
will become dominant after you cross the age
of 30 internal creation that which is created
as value remember second house venus i've spoken
of venus as your value system okay so keep this
background in mind i shall keep these two introductory
slides in every podcast And the rest of it is
a voiceover, have patience, listen, understand,
leave your comments if you find something else,
if you're mainstream, if this appears on the
LinkedIn newsletter and if it is cut short because
the platform only allows me 15 minutes. Okay,
I can't pack the whole thing in 15 minutes, I
won't be doing any justice to it. Entire video
is on YouTube, you can watch it on YouTube. Even
the people listening on Apple and Spotify and
other podcast channels. Listen in now. Core values.
External cause versus internal cause. From Natal
to Navamsa. Let's talk about cause because cause
is not about what you do. It is about what pulls
you. You may think you choose your goals. In
reality, most people are drawn into certain life
themes long before they consciously decide anything.
Cause is the invisible engine behind ambition,
obsession, detachment and destiny. And this is
where Natal and Navamsa tell two very different
truths. External cause, what the world pulls
you toward. External cause is the direction of
your outward hunger. In the Natal chart, cause
shows up as what excites you disproportionately,
what feels urgent, addictive, or important, what
you are willing to bend rules for, what gives
you a sense of arrival, even if temporarily or
early. This is the energy that says, if I get
this, everything will make sense. Externally,
cause is seductive. It gives momentum, visibility,
and often rapid growth. But it also comes with
distortion. You may chase recognition, influence,
novelty, power, impact, validation through achievement.
And because external cause is rewarded by society,
it is very easy to mistake it for purpose. Internal
cause. What your soul is trying to release. Internal
cause works in the opposite direction. Instead
of pulling you towards something, it pulls you
away from attachment. Navamsa reveals what you
are meant to outgrow, what no longer satisfies
you even if it once did, what you instinctively
detach from after experience, what feels strangely
empty despite success. Internal cause whispers,
you've already been here. This no longer defines
you. Let go or life will do it for you. This
is why internal cause often feels uncomfortable.
It removes illusions before it offers replacements.
When external and internal cause are in conflict,
this is one of the deepest inner tensions a person
can experience. Externally you may feel driven
toward expansion, achievement, visibility, influence.
Internally, however, you may feel a growing need
to simplify, withdraw, disengage, question the
value of what you are chasing. So life starts
to feel paradoxical. I'm moving forward. but
something feels off. I'm getting what I wanted,
and yet I'm restless. I can't explain why this
no longer excites me. This is not confusion.
This is internal cause awakening. How sign shifts
transform the meaning of cause? A sign shift
between Natal and Navamsa dramatically alters
motivation. Imagine external cause expressed
through a sign that thrives on ambition, conquest,
expansion, pushing boundaries. Externally life
feels like a mission. Now imagine that same cause
shifting internally to a sign that values depth,
truth, emotional honesty, inner transformation.
Suddenly the chase loses flavor. The question
shifts from how far can I go to is this worth
my inner cost? This is where people stop chasing
everything that moves and start choosing what
deserves their energy. House shifts when cause
turns invisible. House shifts often explain sudden
disengagement from worldly goals. An externally
driven cause may sit in a public or ambitious
house in Natal and shift to a private spiritual
or psychological house in Navamsa. Externally,
your life is about movement and reach. Internally,
your life becomes about meaning and release.
This is when people step back from constant striving,
lose interest in competition, feel drawn toward
introspection, healing, or teaching. Stop proving
and start understanding. It may look like retreat.
In reality, it is reorientation. The psychological
cost of chasing the wrong cause. Chasing external
cause without honoring internal cause creates
a very specific pain. Chronic dissatisfaction,
existential boredom, fear of stillness, identity
built on what's next. Even success becomes fragile.
Because when cause is misaligned, achievement
never settles. You are always chasing the next
version of relief. Navamsa eventually forces
a pause, often through loss, disillusionment,
or detachment. Not as punishment. As correction.
The maturity of Aligned Cause. Aligned Cause
feels radically different. It is no longer loud.
It no longer needs constant stimulation. Instead,
it feels grounded, selective, purposeful, quietly
powerful. You stop needing everything. You start
needing what is true. Externally, you may appear
less driven. Internally, you are finally directed.
The deeper teaching Navamsa brings. Navamsa teaches
a difficult but liberating truth. Not everything
you desire is meant to be kept. Some desires
exist only to move you to the next stage. External
cause moves you through the world. Internal cause
moves you beyond illusion. When these two align,
ambition stops being compulsive. Detachment stops
being painful. Life no longer feels like a chase.
It feels like a choice. Thoughts to sit with.
As you reflect quietly, allow these questions
to linger. What am I chasing because it excites
me? And what because I fear letting go? Which
ambitions still feel alive and which feel inherited
or outdated? If success were guaranteed, what
would I willingly release? What is life slowly
teaching me to stop identifying with? These questions
don't demand immediate answers. They soften attachments,
clarify direction, and gently reveal what you
are truly here for. and what you are here to
move beyond. Rahu as external cause, Ketu as
internal cause, examples. Cause is the deepest
layer, not what you do, not what you carry, but
what pushes you into motion in the first place.
In this framework, Rahu and Natal D1 shows the
external cause, what the world dangles in front
of you, what provokes ambition, obsession, hunger,
visibility, desire, and compulsion. K2 in Navamsa,
D9, shows the internal cause, the quiet karmic
engine that actually drives you from within,
detachment, dissatisfaction, intuition, spiritual
itch, or inner rejection. This is where most
people misunderstand themselves. They think they
are chasing Rahu, but in truth, they are running
from or toward K2. Let's make this precise. Example
one, Rahu and Leo, 10th house, K2 in Aquarius,
11th house. Externally, the cause of action is
recognition, fame, authority, and being seen
as special. Leadership and visibility pull the
person forward. Internally, the cause is detachment
from ego and individuality. The soul seeks freedom
from hierarchy and personal glorification. Core
tension, spotlight versus liberation. Maturity
lesson, recognition loses meaning when freedom
is denied. Example two. Rahu and Taurus, second
house, Cato and Scorpio, eighth house. Externally,
desire is driven by wealth, possessions, security,
voice, and accumulation. The world teaches, get
more. Internally, the soul is pushed by loss,
transformation, and letting go. Attachment to
comfort repeatedly creates crisis. Core tension,
accumulation versus surrender. Maturity lesson,
what you cling to is what must transform. Example
three. Rahu and Gemini, third house, Ketu and
Sagittarius, ninth house. Externally, curiosity,
communication, networking, media, and information
drive life choices. Talking, learning, and staying
connected feel essential. Internally, the soul
is disillusioned with opinions and seeks truth,
meaning, and lived wisdom. Core tension, information
versus understanding. Maturity lesson, knowing
more is not the same as knowing truth. Example
four, Rahu and cancer, fourth house. Ketu and
Capricorn, 10th house. Externally, emotional
security, home, belonging, and comfort drive
decisions. The world pulls the person towards
safety. Internally, the soul is detached from
status and achievement. Responsibility feels
hollow without inner meaning. Core tension, comfort
versus authority. Maturity lesson, safety without
purpose stagnates growth. Tash example five.
Rahu and Virgo, sixth house. Ketu and Pisces,
twelfth house. Externally, obsession centers
on fixing, improving, controlling health, routines,
and service. Life becomes a problem -solving
loop. Internally, the soul seeks surrender, faith,
compassion, and release from endless correction.
Core tension, control versus trust. Maturity
lesson, not everything broken needs repair. Example
six, Rahu and Libra, seventh house. Ketu and
Aries, first house. Externally, relationships,
approval, validation, and partnership drive choices.
The world says, be chosen. Internally, the soul
demands independence, selfhood, and courage.
Over -dependence creates inner resentment. Core
tension, approval versus autonomy. Maturity lesson,
no relationship replaces self -respect. Example
seven, Rahu and Scorpio, eighth house. Ketu and
Taurus, second house. Externally, Crisis, intensity,
power dynamics, secrets, and emotional extremes
provoke growth. Drama becomes addictive. Internally,
the soul longs for simplicity, peace, and stable
values. Core tension, intensity versus stability.
Maturity lesson, peace is not boredom, it is
healing. Example eight, Rahu and Sagittarius,
ninth house, Ketu and Gemini, third house. Externally,
belief systems, ideology, teaching, travel, and
moral superiority drive action. Internally, the
soul is tired of opinions and seeks silence,
neutrality, and observation. Core tension, belief
versus neutrality. Maturity lesson, wisdom deepens
when certainty loosens. Example nine, Rahu and
Capricorn, 10th house, Ketu and Cancer, 4th house.
Externally, ambition, hierarchy, achievement,
and public authority pull the person forward
relentlessly. Internally, the soul seeks emotional
safety, softness, and nurturing, often denied
in pursuit of success. Core tension, ambition
versus emotional need. Maturity lesson, success
that ignores the heart collapses inwardly. Example
10, Rahu and Aquarius, 11th house. Key to a fifth
house. Externally, innovation, networks, technology,
and collective recognition drive life direction.
Internally, the soul wants authentic self -expression,
creativity, and personal joy, not just usefulness.
Core tension, collective relevance versus personal
meaning. Maturity lesson, serving the future
should not erase the self. Core principles to
take away. One, Rahu pulls you forward, Ketu
pushes you inward. Two, obsession is external,
dissatisfaction is internal. Three, you chase
Rahu to understand why Ketu is uncomfortable.
Four, life repeats Rahu themes until Ketu is
honored. Five, freedom comes when desire and
detachment cooperate. When external cause Rahu
and internal cause Ketu align, ambition loses
its anxiety, Detachment loses its bitterness
and life stops feeling compulsive. You no longer
run toward desire. You move with awareness.
