Karmas
The
astrologer reads the prarabdha karmas, the portion of
sanchita karmas that we are destined to experience in this
present life. The chart reveals the positive and negative
aspects of our prarabdha karmas. All of us must
experience our prarabdha karmas. The moment of birth
determines the prarabdha karmas. These karmas can be
either sattvic, rajasic, or tamasic, depending on the
nature of the planets involved. In addition, these karmas
can have different levels of intensity, and here we have
the following three classification:
Dridha Karmas - these karmas are extremely
difficult to change and are represented in the chart by
serious afflictions or impediments caused by the poor
placement of house lords and the influence of malefic
planets. An example of this would be the level of wealth
of poverty in an individuals life or the level of success
in his/her career.
Dridha/Adridha Karmas - These are less serious and
can be changed only through determined effort, especially
through spiritual practices such as meditation, yoga, and
sincere devotion to God(ess) and charitable contributions
for a good cause.
Adridha Karmas - these can easily be changed by
cultivating good attitudes and through good actions.
Astrology is a deep and penetrating subject and it can
have wonderfully healing effects in helping us understand
the meaning of life and the experiences we are destined to
have in this world. My astrological work with clients over
the past several years has shown me that people are often
relieved when they discover the reason why certain areas
of life seem to bring on endless challenge and suffering.
We tend to be obsessed or preoccupied with the areas of
our chart that promise those challenges and proper
astrological guidance can put it all in proper context.
Remedial measures can be prescribed or our attitudes can
be redirected to other areas, while not entirely
neglecting the areas of challenge.
To neglect the areas of challenge in life would be akin to
cheating ourselves out of some important life experiences,
but astrology has the unique capacity to help us
differentiate the real from the unreal and to tone our
expectations so that we are able to see that we are
the creators of the very complexity that we too often
project onto the world, to those around us or even to our
God(ess).
Once we have overcome the human habit of blaming others
for our own shortcomings, we are well on our way to
self-understanding and the development of those enviable
human traits such as generosity, kindness, and
selflessness. Astrology gives us a connection to the
soul’s intention for us and in this sense it can helps us
develop a relationship with the spiritual dimension.
It can help us overcome spiritual impoverishment and a
sense of meaninglessness in life that the dry religions
are often unable to address.
Combined with yoga, ayurveda, and spiritual practices,
it offers us access to a world of
hidden and mysterious influences that helps us master our
relationship with mind, body and spirit - a
world that transcends the so called normal scope of human
intelligence, a world that brings an awareness of the
Divine energies that penetrate our soul and personality in
our daily walking.
