FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

My father's life in the horoscope is 67 years. He is 66 now and completely fit and fine. So, should I believe in horoscope? Are horoscopes true?

Who gave you that number?

As I know no astrologer gives prediction on longevity as it is not an easy task.

What is the use in knowing one’s longevity? The quality of life is more important than the longevity of a native.

You do not have to worry about the number and discard the same and live free of it.

How can one get a government job through an astrological combination?

Usually for a person to get into a government job there should be a good sustainable stable dasha bhukti in the chart.

Secondly the person should have a standard income yoga in the chart. These things will not be proclaimed in the chart as a big Raj yoga. There are many charts with normal yogas like the kendrasthanadhipati (4th, 7th or the 10th lord) sitting in the 2nd house or the 5th lord posited in the 2nd house or the 9th lord sitting in the 2nd house. The above mentioned combinations are good dhana yogas which will give stable income to the native.

With these yogas or combinations, if the native has a strong Sun or Jupiter posited in the 6th or 4th or in the 10th or even in the 7th house, the native will have a good chance to get into a government job.

In many cases, when the 10th lord is conjunct with Sun and has a benefic aspect of Jupiter, chances are very high to get into government sector.

If the 10th lord is along with the slow moving planet or along with Sun, there is a very good chance for a person to get into a government service.

I always have a confusion regarding astrology predictions, karma and manifestation. It is said we manifest our lives and also karma has impact on our lives so where does astrology stand here. What among the three has more significance in one's life?

This question pertains to the proportion of Freewill, Fate and Destiny of a person. Here Freewill is Purushartha

Fate is the prabadha and

Destiny is the Moksha where the person will reach in his life.

Here the fate is not always fixed i.e. the prarabdha karma has 2 parts dhridha karma and the other one is adhridha karma.

Dhridha karma means fixed path of life or fixed limitations of that particular person.

Adhridha karma means the karmas or actions which are flexible and which depend upon the way a person thinks and acts in this life. Here freewill plays a very important role in shaping the adhridha karma.

Most part of our thought processes are nothing but our yearnings to find the correct path for our life. These yearnings come from inside which we call as gut feelings or passion or dreams. All these put together is known as inspiration which happens internally i.e. within one’s sub conscious mind. To control this sub conscious mind and channelize it properly earlier days (1000s of years old) people use to practice meditation, yoga, chanting mantras/vedas, etc.

Living a satvik life, practicing right discipline, walking on the right ethical path of life would actually give us good thoughts and promote our life through a better path because adhridha karma plays a very important role in deciding how happy we are in what we are doing in our life.

What are the mutual effects of Mars in the first house with Venus and the Moon in the 7th house for a Libra ascendant?

Here Venus & Mars both have exchanged houses i.e. parivatana yoga has happened,

Venus being the lord of ascendant Libra and Mars being the lord of 7th house i.e. Aries have exchanged signs and are placed in the opposite signs. This particular parivartana yoga is considered one of the best yogas for acquiring wealth, getting into good business and other material accomplishments.

Moon here is the 10th lord along with Venus in the 7th house gives rise to a very strong Raj Yoga with regard to professional success.
