Domestic happiness is also its signification.
If the second house is a benefic sign and if the second
house is tenanted by benefics and if the second lord is in a
quadrant or a trine, he will become immensely rich with
oratorial prowess.
If the Ascendant lord is weak and if the second lord is weak
with malefics posited in 6,8,12 houses, he will be poor and
helpless. If the second lord is exalted in a quadrant or
trine, and if that sign ispositor is powerfully posited in
benefic houses, he will have remendous wealth and will
protect a lot of people. If the second lord is aspected by
benefics and is posited in a quadrant or trine, he will be
handsome. If not, he will be ugly and wicked. If the second
lord is aspected by malefics and is with malefics, he will
stammer and stutter. If the second lord is with malefics, is
posited in the tenth with an afflicted Sun, and if Mars and
the Sun are posited in the second house, his speech will be
afflicted and he will be rejected by others.

Astrology, Holistic Medicine & Ayurveda
Why holistic health practices fail or succeed partially Main
reason for the failure of holisitc health practices is that
Prana or Life Energy does not flow freely within the
individual or between the individual & the universal life,
owing to the presence of obstructions within.These
obstructions are caused by Samskaras, psychic memories or
residual traces of our past actions and experiences.
Samskaras are of two kinds, those which only produce
memories ( smriti ) of past experiences and those which
produce impulses or drives to repeat these experiences (
vasanas) . These two are interlinked to form complex
patterns of love, hate, fear etc. It is these complexes that
obstruct the free flow of Life-Energy in us.
Removing Mental Blocks
Many of these complexes are formed in childhood and
adolescence. Then unpleasant or traumatic experiences take
place, the tendency of a child or teenager is to repress
them. Repression is a form of pushing the psychic memories
into the unconscious regions of the mind. The growing youth
may not be able to recollect those psychic memories again,
but the repressed samskaras lodged in the hidden recesses of
the unconscious go on creating psychological and
psychosomatic problems for him. All psychosomatic disorders
cannot be cured by holistic health tech- iques unless these
repressed complexities are ferreted out and onfronted. The
past samskaras should be deactivated. For this the seeker
has to dive deep into his unconscious & encounter the past
experiences and deactivate them. Most people find it
difficult to do it without the active help of a competent
guide. Those who depend on the Ocean of Consciousness ( the
Absolute or God ) may , however, find that these inner
blocks are removed by Divine Grace.This is the rationale
behind faith healing & miraculous cures.
Extension of Consciousness
Life,a gift from the Divine, is a great healing power.
Nothing ever begins to be; Substance merely undergoes a
parallel transformation into conditions which pre-existed in
other conditions. Life, similarly, does not begin to be. As
Energy, as per the Law of Conservation of Energy or Matter
cannot be created or destroyed, so too is Life Eternal.
At the physical level, the eternal healing power of life
manifests itself as
a) Self-renewal
b) The immune system.
For many years it has been known that the body can filter
and re-use its fluids & repair damages to tissues,
especially skin and bone, by growing new cells. Modern
Science has shown that self-renewal is constantly taking
place in every part of the body. Almost all the cells in the
body are constantly being replaced by new ones. Somebody
said " I am not the same person I was one year ago"! The
entire body gets renewed in this way every year & this shows
that it is never too late to regain your health. By changing
one's basic attitudes and way of living, the damage to the
body caused by years of misuse & neglect can be overcome.
One the great marvels of the universe is the human immune
system. Those who are aware of the biochemical processes
going on in the body will agree with Walt Whitman " To me
every hour of the day & night is an unspeakably perfect
miracle". Dr Walter Cannon said " The Wisdom of the body is
the most precise of all selective refinements" !
The Components ( Four Units ) of our Immune System
The fourfold immune system consists of the following units;
1 The granulocyte-macrophage unit
2. The lymphocyte unit
3. The antibody unit
4. The complement unit
The first two are varieties of white blood corpuscles,
wherein the last two are chemicals, proteins. All the four
units of our immune system launch a concerted attack on the
invaders as soon as a few bacteria break into any tissue in
the body. ( The antibody unit has been defined as an army of
one million) Western medical science is wondering who
masterminds this attack or who plans these strategies.
Common sense, logic, intuition & experience suggest that
somewhere behind all this there must be a master control.
Why do sometimes cells become malignant and attack
neighbouring cells ? Why it goes awry, sometimes,when our
defence units attack innocent cells mistaking them for enemy
microbes ? Western medical science is researching hard to
find answers to these difficult questions.

Astrology & Yoga
Yoga is derived from the word "Yuj" which means to unite.
Union with Cosmic Creative Intelligence is the aim of Yoga.
The Fourfold Yoga has been prescribed for Cosmic Union in
Oriental Philosophies.
They are
1. Union via Action ( Karma Yoga )
2. Union via Psychic Control ( Raja Yoga )
3. Union via Universal Love ( Bhakthi Yoga )
4. Union via Wisdom ( Jnana Yoga )
Union via Action is for the person of active temparament.
Union via Psychic Contro is for the person of adventurous
temparament
Union via Universal Love is for the person of emotional
temparament.
Union via Wisdom is for the person of intellectual
temparament.
These four paths are not different from one another. They
are all part of the Fourfold Yoga. Certain qualities are to
be inculcated in the seeker if he is to achieve the Ultimate
Goal. Prajna has been defined as the discriminative
intellect. When the intellect discriminates between the Real
& the Unreal. The intellect which discriminates between
Being and Non-Being. This quality should be incorporated by
the Intellectual Man if he is to progress in the path of
Jnana Yoga.
Love is defined as the greatest of all the positive
qualities of man. This quality is to be incorporated by the
Emotional Man if he is to progress in the field of Bhakthi
Yoga.
Control of Mind or Psychic Control through Raja Yoga should
be incorporated by the Adventurous Man if he is to progress
in the field of Raja Yoga.
Selfless Service should be incorporated by the Active Man if
he is to progress in the field of Karma Yoga.
In other words, since the Fourfold Yoga has been prescribed
for mankind , all these four great qualities - Selfless
service, love, psychic control & the discriminative
intellect should be incorporated by the spiritual aspirant
to develop in the field of Yoga.
Yoga was defined by Aurobindo as a methodic process towards
self-perfection through a development of the latent
potential at the five levels of Being - physical, vital,
mental, intellectual & spiritual. Normal man lives only in
the first three sheaths - physical, vital & mental. Only
when we use our hidden spiritual potential - the intell-
ectual & the bliss sheaths - can be unfold our full mental
potential.

Astrology & Occult Vibratory Chemistry ( Tantra )
Vedanta focusses on the Sat ( Existence ) aspect of Absolute
Being. Tantra, on the other hand, focusses on the Chit (

absolutely absolute while the Knowledge aspect takes care of
the Absolute and the Relative.

Books as the repository of all knowledge
The outpourings of the Intuitive Mind came to be known as
great Literature, the rise and flow of Eternal Wisdom. While
the Rational Mind of man focussed on Science, the Intuitive
Mind of mind focussed on the supra-mundane, the sublime, the
divine. Poetry was defined as the fulness of generation of
Beauty. All knowledge of both the Rational and the Intuitive
Minds were recorded as books, which remain as the source of
all information.

Flawless gems are auspicious and flawed gems are a source of
misfortune. Richard Shaw Brown, Jr ( www.agt-gems.com)
writes that the Vedic texts which state that pure flawless
gems have auspicious powers ( Garuda Purana, Agni Purana)
are correct. " After 25 years of researching and
experimenting with gemstones, it is our carefully considered
opinion that the Vedic texts are correct. Flawed gems are
simply a source of misfortune, not to mention their being
ugly ! Think about it ! How many people are prepared to
tolerate defects in their clothing, or any other personal
items they possess?. Even a single scratch on a nice
automobile is an eyesore, so why do people tolerate flawed
gems? "
Howard Beckman ( www.p-g-a.org ) writes that different
Chakras absorb different cosmic colors and nourish
particular glands in the body.
Diseases can be cured by using appropriate gems.

Astrology, Holistic Medicine & Ayurveda Regulation of Food,
Sleep and Exercise
" Food is medicine; Medicine is food " said Hippocrates.
"Food is Brahman. Food was verily born before all creatures:
therefore it is called the medicine for all" declares the
Upanishads. By stating that food is the root cause of all
ills & illnesses Vedanta have formulated one of the
foundational principles of holistic health. At least half
the ailments of man can be traced directly or indirectly to
the problems of food. Regulation of food is not easy,
because it is an addiction like alcohol. Problems like
obesity, higher cholesterol level & irritable bowel syndrome
crop up if food is not controlled. By controlling food, the
whole body comes under control. "When taste is conquered
everything is conquered " averrs Vedanta. What really
matters is not how much we eat but how much of what we eat
is transformed into bioenergy & the building materials of
life.
Sir William Osler pointed out many years ago " Only a small
percentage of what we eat nourishes us; the balance goes to
waste and loss of energy". In holistic health, food should
be revered & a proper attitude towards food should be
developed. " Be thankful for all food, for food is Brahman "
said Vivekananda. Six hours have been prescribed for all
even though requirement of sleep varies from person to
person Research studies have indicated that even moderate
levels of exercise bolster the immune system. No amount of
sleep is sufficient for unwinding the mind for it is always
in a tense state under the stressful conditions of modern
life. Antidotes to stress include yogic techniques like
Meditation, prayer, cultivation of the Witness attitude &
practice of absolute self-surrender to the Divine, which
enable us to avoid a lot of unnecessary stress. Doing
nothing or simply lying down is not relaxation. The muscles
when stretched bring in relaxation as it frees them from the
tense condition. Some of the yogic Asanas are highly
effective because they can relax the muscles. There will be
focal point in the body which reflects the mental tension
which one finds oneself in. That focal point of mental
tension should be identified and you can choose that type of
yogic exercise which will relax the muscles & tendons of the
specific focal point of tension in you.
A good site where you can get quality information about
Holistic Medicine is www.holistic-alt.com
Regulation of Breath "Breathlessness is deathlessness "
averrs Yoga. Regulation of breath gives tremendous
relaxation.Pranayama, without the help of a bona fide
Master, can lead to serious complications. What is needed is
the practice of breathing deeply ( as deeply as possible )
through both the nostrils & then slowly breathing out (
without breath retention ). This kind of regulated deep
breathing can be done at any time, even in your office.
Psychosomatic pain can be alleviated by these simple yogic
techniques more effectively than allopathic pills or
tablets. Here we employ the internal pharmacy of Skill power
in lieu of the external pharmacy of Pill Power!
Vedic Holistic Medicine ( Ayurveda) gives priority to the
Whole and not to the parts, contrary to chemotherapy which
treats the parts only.

Astrology & Yoga
All knowledge is threefold (" Thraigunya Vishaya Veda "). In
Freudian Psycho-analysis we have three impulses, Id, Ego and
Supergo. The Vedantic Satwa, Rajas and Thamas correspond to
these impulses. The mind is always gripped by these three
impulses. Sometimes we are Rajasic ( worldly ) and go after
wealth. When intense anger and other negative emotions grip
us, we are Thamasic. When divine qualities like Love and
Peace influence us, we are Satwic ( divine ). The Ego with
its ten heads ( symbolised as the ten-headed Ravana ) is the
major block in attaining Self_Actualisation. The ten heads
of the Ego are Lust,Anger,Pride, Avarice, Sloth,
Covetousness, Attachment, Mind, Intellect, Conceit &
Egoistic Mentality. Only when the ten heads of the Ego are
removed can we hope to get Self-Realisation. ( Symbolically
only when the Ravana in us is destroyed ). When we do our
yoga, we will be assailed by three type of Ego. Rajasic (
wordly ), Thamasic ( bestial ) and Satwic ( noble ). In
order to overcome the three types of Ego, we are given
certain commandments.
" Ma the Sanghostha karmani " - (Let there be not in you any
attachment to inaction. ) This commandment is given so that
we can overcome the Thamasic ( bestial ) ego.
" Ma Karma Phala Heturbhoo " - ("Dont expect any reward")
This commandment is given to protect us from the Rajasic (
wordly ) ego, which always expects rewards for work done.
"Ubhe Sukruta Dushkrute " ( "Be beyond good and evil " )
This commandment is given to us to overcome the Satwic Ego,
for one should not hang on to Punya ( divine merit ).
In other words, during the process of Yoga, we will be
assailed by all sorts of negative thoughts. Our aim is to
identify with the Source of all thought, the Self. We will
find, as we progress on the path of yoga, that these
negative thoughts leave us slowly and steadily. Conquering
our negative aspect is not easy. The negative elements in
man are the true villains.
Alone, powerful & cruel are the dark and dreadful forces
that profit from the reign of Night and Ignorance and they
dont want any change in the body. We have to annihilate them
one by one.
In tragic life, God wot
No villains need be, passions spin the plot
We are betrayed by what is false within !
The entire Vedic wisdom is contained in one word " Transcend
". Transcend both pain & sorrow, transcend the triune
attributes of Nature. Transcend negativity !.

Astrology & Occult Vibratory Chemistry ( Tantra )
Tantra focusses on the Chit-Shakti, the Consciousness-Force
latent in the Universe. The entire Universe is the play and
display of this Cosmic Force and this Force is latent in
human beings as the Kundalini. She rises from the Root
Chakra to the Crown Chakra during Meditation. Tantra is a
similar discipline like Yoga and is very important from the
Divine perspective.

Books as the source of knowledge
Dante's Divina Commedia or Goethe's Faust were never the
product of the Rational Mind. They were the products of the
Intuitive Mind. Books can instruct, they can teach & they
can elevate man from the mundane to the sublime !
