1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,000 Good morning boys and girls. Welcome to the progressive astrology aspects. 2 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:10,000 I am talking today about beginners self study aspects. 3 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:14,000 If you are a beginner in Vedic Astrology or Astrology in general, 4 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:18,000 I want you to pay some attention to some points. I have made some 6 points here. 5 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,000 Quickly go through them. 6 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:26,000 These things are useful for you to know for understanding self, the personality. 7 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:32,000 Self as the personality, not self as the soul. Although there are indications to that effect. 8 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,000 First we will study the Ascendant. 9 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,000 First point to look at for you will be the Ascendant. 10 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,000 I will compare it to the chart now. 11 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:45,000 It is 4th of April 2022, 12.30 pm Indian Standard Time. 12 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:49,000 This is the western style Vedic Astrology plot of the current time right now. 13 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,000 This is how it looks like. 14 00:00:51,000 --> 00:01:00,000 The blue signs are all water, the red signs are all fire, the brown ones are earth and green ones are air signs. 15 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,000 With the respective nakshatra shown in there. 16 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,000 Just so you know. 17 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,000 Back to the talking points. 18 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:12,000 Ascendant means where your sun shines and moon nakshatra is where your moon shines, the mind. 19 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:22,000 The basis of this is, unless you know who you are, why your personality is seen by yourself or others a certain way. 20 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:27,000 Where you are going or when you get there, if you get there, it will not make any sense to you. 21 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:32,000 That is the principle of evolutionary astrology as I call it. 22 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:36,000 The entire playlist of evolutionary astrology is all about. 23 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:45,000 It is about first understanding you, who you are and where you are going and how your life transpires based on your personality. 24 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,000 It is all based on personality. 25 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,000 So number one, the first point, where is your ascendant as per Vedic Astrology? 26 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,000 We will just take this current time as the reference point. 27 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,000 Right now the ascendant is at 20 degrees of Gemini. 28 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:04,000 So this and in Aadra nakshatra, as you can see, it is almost about to go into Punarvasu. 29 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:08,000 This is Punarvasu, that is Aadra. 30 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,000 So this person's ascendant is at 20 degrees of Punarvasu. 31 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:22,000 We are talking mainly of degrees and angles here as per Vedic Astrology plot, but this is western style, so it looks circular here. 32 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,000 So where is your ascendant? 33 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,000 This person's ascendant is at 20 degrees. 34 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,000 Zodiac sign and nakshatra. 35 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,000 Zodiac sign is Gemini. 36 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:39,000 It is transcending beginning or ending of Punarvasu because 20 degrees of Punarvasu is just about to start Aadra nakshatra right now. 37 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,000 This is where this person's soul is shining. 38 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:49,000 It is about to complete the energies of Punarvasu and go into Aadra. 39 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,000 Moon is where your moon shines. 40 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,000 Where is this person moon right now? 41 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:59,000 This person's moon, whoever is born right now, is moon is in Bharani nakshatra. 42 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:05,000 So this person's moon shines in Bharani nakshatra and all the themes of it. 43 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:11,000 If you don't know the themes of the different nakshatras, I have put it in my evolutionary astrology series. 44 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,000 You can have a look at it. 45 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:18,000 Second point is what is the angle in degrees of your ascendant and moon? 46 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:23,000 So ascendant is at 20 degrees, moon is at 25 degrees. 47 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:36,000 Some astrologers and astrology teachings, especially in Vedic astrology will go say that the more the degrees of angle of the moon is there, you got to consider that more. 48 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:47,000 So in this case, whoever is being born right now in India has got this arrangement and they are at 25 degrees of moon is higher than the 20 degrees of ascendant. 49 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,000 So back to the talking points. 50 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:57,000 Some astrologers say if one is more in angle than the other, we are talking about ascendant and moon. 51 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,000 In this case, moon is more than the ascendant. 52 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:09,000 So Bharani in moon as a personality trait will play out more in this case of this person rather than the ascendant. 53 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:16,000 Now why is it important for you to study your own chart and not just go by some astrologers say because only you know your personality the best. 54 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:24,000 Which one makes more sense to you whoever is born here in Moon in Bharani or ascendant in stages of Punevaroso. 55 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,000 They are different personalities. 56 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,000 So you will know only these different personalities as you go through them. 57 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:35,000 So remember it's only a personality and outer covering a mask. 58 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,000 It's not your soul. 59 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,000 The angle denotes the progression of energies within a sign or nakshatra. 60 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:47,000 So the higher the angle in which case which is ascendant in Punevaroso it's almost about to finish. 61 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:52,000 You can see that angle over there is just about to finish Punevaroso. 62 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:58,000 So this one the angle denotes the progression of energies means the soul has already covered this. 63 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:04,000 It's pretty much seen all the Punevaroso is just in a finishing stage of it. 64 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:11,000 The more angle is traversed only means there is more karmic energy which needs resolving to that sign or nakshatra. 65 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:21,000 So this person who is born now is finishing up Punevaroso as he goes into more of other nakshatra. 66 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:30,000 There is a hint here in the Jai Mini system Atma Karaka is a planet with the highest angle among all the other planets and points in the chart. 67 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,000 That becomes Atma Karaka. 68 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:39,000 It's not points. The Jai Mini system uses only solid planets not Rahu, Enkitu or North or South, North or the Moon. 69 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,000 So check that. 70 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:48,000 Atma Karaka is one where the person is trying to resolve the shadow aspects of any planet. 71 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,000 Every planet has a shadow aspect. 72 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:58,000 Number 3, check the number of planets in Dev, Manusya or Rakshasa Gana and Nakshatra. 73 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,000 So the Ganas I have spoken of in the three groups of people on earth. 74 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,000 You can check that video if you want. 75 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:10,000 Everything is there in progressive astrology, evolutionary astrology series playlist if you want to go through that. 76 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:21,000 The more planets and points in Dev Ganas, the person has come to take the higher evolutionary point, the knowledge and wisdom point of the particular planet. 77 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:30,000 Even if it's a malefic planet like Rahu Ketu or Saturn or Mars or Sun or as such. 78 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,000 The person will be more Satvik in nature. 79 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,000 The Manusya Gana will be more human and more in duality. 80 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,000 The Rakshasa Gana will be more tamasic or dense physicality. 81 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:45,000 They are more materialistic if you want to call it that. 82 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:50,000 The fourth point is the opposite sign on Nakshatra will always be of similar nature. 83 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,000 Let's take Rahu and Ketu here. 84 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:57,000 This is Ketu over here and Ketu over here. 85 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:03,000 They will always be 180 degrees apart if you are an astrologer. 86 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:11,000 The Ketu in Krithika and Ketu is in Vishaka. 87 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,000 This is Vishaka Nakshatra. 88 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:22,000 The opposite Nakshatras will always have the same type of Gana or the group. 89 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,000 This will be Dev, so this will be Dev. 90 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,000 This will be Rakshasa, so this is also Rakshasa Gana. 91 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:36,000 If this is the Revati, then the opposite sign will be Swati. 92 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:40,000 Opposite signs are of the same type of group. 93 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:47,000 Remember that because the planets always look at the seventh aspect as the opposite sign. 94 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:56,000 If the moon is waning in the chart, meaning it is going towards the new moon, 95 00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:01,000 the person will be pessimistic in nature when waxing or going towards the full moon. 96 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,000 That is what is happening here. 97 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:07,000 The moon is going towards the full moon. 98 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:13,000 It will come right here and at some point when it is opposite the sun, it will become a full moon. 99 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:21,000 So when it is going towards becoming the full moon, the person is optimistic in nature. 100 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,000 What does this mean? 101 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:29,000 The principle here being the mind of the moon is either burning up, going towards the energy of the sun or the soul. 102 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:35,000 The mind when it goes towards the sun or the soul, it burns up because soul is just pure energy. 103 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,000 It is like a combust planet. 104 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:41,000 If you want to call it that, the moon itself gets combust every month. 105 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:47,000 The mind is being illuminated more or going towards the full moon. 106 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:51,000 The further away it is from the sun. 107 00:08:51,000 --> 00:09:00,000 As it is going towards becoming a full moon, it is more optimistic because the mind is getting illuminated by the energy of the soul. 108 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:04,000 Think of it as that simple principle. 109 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:09,000 The sixth aspect and the last one we will cover for now. 110 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,000 The more planets are point in the upper hemisphere. 111 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,000 I think I covered this in a very video before. 112 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:20,000 Houses number 7-12. This is houses number 7, 8, 9, 12. 113 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:24,000 We will show more of the energy soul wants to be in the outer world. 114 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,000 Everything here is about the outer world. 115 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:42,000 As you can see, any person born in India now here with this chart has a lot of energy and lot of karma and lot of work and energy spent in the outer world. 116 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:51,000 Because most of the planets and point including some of the major outer ones like Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, everything is in the upper half. 117 00:09:51,000 --> 00:10:03,000 So they will be coming here or they have come here or being born to predominantly play out energies and work, hobbies, relationships, everything in the outer world. 118 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:10,000 Other than Ketu, there is nothing in the lower half of anybody who is being born at this time. 119 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:17,000 So more planets are points in upper hemisphere will show more energy soul wants to be showing off in the outer world. 120 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:23,000 Outer engagement through life and more of lower hemisphere will show more introverted nature. 121 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:32,000 You can also call it not necessarily optimistic, I would say optimistic pessimistic goes on the moon and the sun, waxing and waning the point number 5. 122 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:39,000 But the activity and the karma shall be performed by the individual in the world will be like that. 123 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:46,000 7-12 will be more in the outer world. 1-6 will be more in the inner world bringing to the outer world. 124 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:52,000 Of course we have to remember that everything outer a person is always working in both the realms. 125 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:56,000 The individual soul always stands between the outer and the inner. 126 00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:03,000 But you will be working from within going to out the outer planets on the top will show outer back to inner. 127 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:07,000 So it is a self reflective universe we live in anyway. 128 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:23,000 So I wanted to keep this in mind well when evaluating personalities. Personality is very important for knowing who you are first so that you can work with yourself properly. 129 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:30,000 And that is what you will seriously empower you. This is very empowering for an individual to know. 130 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:39,000 Even if you just stop at just knowing the personality nothing more that is good enough for starting point in my opinion. 131 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:48,000 So take care be safe be awesome wherever you are and I will catch you sorry there was my laptop shaking in the next one. 132 00:11:48,000 --> 00:12:01,000 Be safe be awesome.
