1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,400 Dharah, Dharasuta, Dhanya, Dharmini, Dharmavartini. 2 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:08,200 What does this mean? These are lines from 3 00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:15,200 Lalitasa, Sranama, the thousand names of the Mother Goddess of the Universe, which means 4 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:18,600 she who carries all beings like the earth, 5 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,700 she who is the daughter of the mountain, she who has all sorts of earth, 6 00:00:22,700 --> 00:00:27,600 she who likes Dharma, Dharma in this context being, 7 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:32,200 doing the right thing, simplified, doing the right thing. 8 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,700 We most of the times know what is doing the right thing. 9 00:00:34,700 --> 00:00:38,400 We would hardly do it, isn't it, for humans? 10 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,200 So we come to the second Naksatra, 11 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,400 Varani Naksatra, which is all to do with Dharma. 12 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,300 So let's discuss it. 13 00:00:47,300 --> 00:00:50,300 So Varani is the second Naksatra, 14 00:00:50,300 --> 00:00:53,300 which is the second part of Aries almost. 15 00:00:53,300 --> 00:00:57,000 The last one comes into Krithika, which we shall see later. 16 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,200 What does Varani mean? Varani is also called the bearer. 17 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,000 The symbol is of a womb. 18 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:09,600 The womb is what bears us into this world, the mothers who carry us in their womb. 19 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:16,000 Think of the womb symbology of Varani and you'll understand what this Naksatra really means. 20 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:23,000 So it falls between 13 degrees, 20 minutes of Aries and goes up to 26 degrees, 40 minutes of Aries. 21 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:29,400 This part of Aries is more grounded, it's Gana is like Manusha, it's more earthly in nature, 22 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,400 that's why it's earth. 23 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:35,500 Its nature is rather fierce. 24 00:01:35,500 --> 00:01:41,300 So planets like sun, Mars, etc. will do very well in Varani Naksatra. 25 00:01:41,300 --> 00:01:45,100 D.A.T. is Yama, the lord of Dharma. 26 00:01:45,100 --> 00:01:54,700 So Dharma in this context, don't confuse it with the Badas of the Naksatra itself. 27 00:01:54,700 --> 00:01:56,300 We are talking about the lord here. 28 00:01:56,300 --> 00:01:59,500 Lord Yama is all about doing the right thing. 29 00:01:59,500 --> 00:02:06,400 The lord of rights and wrongs, the person, the guy who stands in judgment of things. 30 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:13,300 Did you do the right thing or did you not do the right thing in any context of life? 31 00:02:13,300 --> 00:02:17,500 So that's the lord and it is tied to the symbology of the womb. 32 00:02:17,500 --> 00:02:24,500 So these two itself give the essential meaning of what Varani Naksatra plays out in a person's life. 33 00:02:24,500 --> 00:02:34,000 If more number of points, two or more points in your chart fall in the natal chart and the Navamsha chart of yours, 34 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:42,800 it means you have got a dominant Varani theme playing out in your life, whichever area you have, life, work, personal life, etc. 35 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,200 So what's the path of it? 36 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:52,900 We'll examine the path more with respect to the energies because this study is all about energies, which the Naksatras provide us. 37 00:02:52,900 --> 00:02:55,700 It's very rich. 38 00:02:55,700 --> 00:03:06,600 The energy of Varani is a passionately driven person, very controlled, maybe very sexual in nature, which is the fourth path. 39 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,400 Why? Because there is Scorpio there. 40 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,800 Scorpio is essentially internally sexual in nature. 41 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:21,400 It also, we can see there is a lot of creativity if it's in the first path because it Navamsha falls in the sign of Leo, 42 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:26,600 which is traditionally the fifth house, so it can lead to more creative person. 43 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,500 It's a very receptive kind of energy. 44 00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:30,200 Think womb again. 45 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,900 It's internalizing, cleansing and rebirthing. 46 00:03:33,900 --> 00:03:37,200 It's transformation through life. 47 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:44,400 Children focus maybe more on the first path again because Leo is the fifth house, which is traditionally of children. 48 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:51,800 There might be more focused on children if your planets are in the second earth, the first path. 49 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,500 Fight all kinds of struggles. 50 00:03:53,500 --> 00:03:57,400 Varani stands for righteous causes, fighting social causes. 51 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:01,600 They can become social reformers, fighting for children's causes maybe. 52 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:07,500 The good of the society, the good of the man, human being. 53 00:04:07,500 --> 00:04:10,800 So what can these kind of people be who are social reformers? 54 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,000 That can be one of the third path. 55 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:14,700 Why is that? 56 00:04:14,700 --> 00:04:17,000 Because there is Libra there in the Navamsha. 57 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,200 It is going towards Libra. 58 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,400 That's what it means, needle to Navamsha. 59 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:27,300 So because of this, Libra is all about going for the masses. 60 00:04:27,300 --> 00:04:33,000 And Varani providing that energy of doing the right thing, they might become social reformers. 61 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,500 These are the people who fight for social justice. 62 00:04:36,500 --> 00:04:42,600 They can be very straight and very blunt approach if they are in the second path, which is the Artha path. 63 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:47,400 You can see over there because he re-transits to Virgo in Navamsha. 64 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:51,200 Virgo is all about being very blunt. 65 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:55,400 They are not the ones to mix words. 66 00:04:55,400 --> 00:05:00,700 Mystery and secrets prone to jealousy, judgmental, unpredictable and unusual. 67 00:05:00,700 --> 00:05:03,000 That's the fourth path. 68 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:10,500 Why it falls from Aries going towards Scorpio in Navamsha, which makes Scorpio is more of secretive, 69 00:05:10,500 --> 00:05:17,600 more of the Aethas, more hidden secrets, more internal. 70 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:25,300 Life lesson of Varani would be keeping respectable boundaries, bearing restraint and control in order to protect. 71 00:05:25,300 --> 00:05:31,000 Holding burden with responsibility in order to deliver like the womb. 72 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:39,500 Remember we spoke of symbology of each Nakshatra, the symbols and the deity, the Lord of Dharma in this case, Yama, 73 00:05:39,500 --> 00:05:41,600 mean everything in Varani. 74 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:46,600 The symbol, a bird and animal are a crow and an elephant. 75 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:54,100 The crow is symbolized as the vehicle which carries the soul over to the other side. 76 00:05:54,100 --> 00:05:57,900 So it symbolizes death right there in the Vedic tradition. 77 00:05:57,900 --> 00:06:01,300 An elephant means the victory, one who is very strong. 78 00:06:01,300 --> 00:06:05,300 So even the animal and the bird symbology carry a lot of meanings in Nakshatras. 79 00:06:05,300 --> 00:06:07,000 That's why I put the pictures there. 80 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,300 The whole energy should come to you like an instant. 81 00:06:10,300 --> 00:06:18,700 The mantra I recommend is Lalita Satsranama, which is the thousand names of the Divine Mother Goddess. 82 00:06:18,700 --> 00:06:21,300 This is Lalita is the mother of the universe. 83 00:06:21,300 --> 00:06:27,600 We all are in her purview, this entire universe. 84 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:35,400 The ages that this Nakshatra is active is 7, 8, 24, 28, 33 and 51. 85 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:48,200 So if you have more Varani Nakshatra planets and points, these are the ages where you will find transformation or your breakthroughs or your success stories. 86 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:52,300 That is number two, Varani Nakshatra, beautiful Nakshatra.
