Grahajoy
Graha means “heavenly body” and joy is simply joy. We believe in the inherent perfection and oneness of the Universe, all our work is based on the understanding that perfection is not only possible, but that it is the natural state of Divine Creation. The Creator doesn’t make mistakes, so it stands to reason that every person’s Astrological Chart contains the information necessary to attain the state of success, happiness and bliss.
What is a Birth Chart?
The Vedic Astrology Birth Chart is done once in a lifetime. The Birth Chart itself is the same whether it is done for a 100 years old person or for a new born baby. The current age is completely irrelevant. The potential for opportunities, the changes, the prevailing energies of certain periods, which are the basis of the Forecast for each year, are calculated from the Birth Chart. So, while the Forecast highlights which energies (already present in the Birth Chart) are enhanced, emphasized, countered, blocked in a given time period, the Birth Chart itself is the same, containing the seeds of all possibilities, all positive and negative energies given at the time of birth.
The Sheer Idiocy of the “Sun Sign” Horoscope
The word “horoscope” comes to us from Greek, the exact meaning being “the observation of the hour”. NOT the observation of the month, NOT the observation of the year, the observation of the HOUR. So, when pop astrology bases the horoscope on the month of the birth (as the Sun transits each Sign in about 30 days) obviously we have a problem. I am baffled by the wide acceptance of such “monthoscopes” because the word itself gives obvious clues “horo” is cognate with the French word “heure”, the Spanish word “hora”, the English word “hour”, and of course “scope”, the second part of the word horoscope is known to all of us alone and also as part of composite words such as telescope, microscope, etc. always meaning observing, looking at.
Rahu Kalam the Unlucky segment of the day
Rahu Kalam is an inauspicious segment of every day when no beginnings should take place. Unlike the Horas, which are calculated by dividing the time between sunrise and sunset by 12 for Day Horas, and dividing the time between sunset and sunrise by 12 for Night Horas, the length of Rahu Kalam is always longer than a Hora.
