They don’t FAKE.

Saturn Moon native is – “REALISTIC” . This one word ‘Realistic’ captures the whole essence of Saturn Moon conjunction.

Evolved souls with this conjunction don’t give a damn to that hypocrisy of “Be Positive” – because they are REAL and when they see that something is not real – not good and is negative then how can they say ‘Be positive’? If a boss is trying to exploit his employee then how can you say to the employee – “Be positive” about your boss – when he or she can SEE clearly that the boss is taking advantage – exploiting him or her!

“The philosophy of positive thinking means being untruthful; it means being dishonest. It means seeing a certain thing and yet denying what you have seen; it means deceiving yourself and others.” – Osho

Be Positive means NOT to ignore that which is negative – and which is causing your harm.

Saturn Moon conjunction comes with a unique TATVA (essence) that focuses on the facts and figures – it is sign of Realism. They are beings who love to be in contact with Reality.

“Realism is in the work when idealism is in the soul, and it is only through idealism that we resume contact with reality.”
-Henri Bergson

Reality can be known – the truth can be realized only through the realms of spirituality and not by philosophy!

Spiritualism is real – Philosophy has absolutely nothing to do with reality!

Philosophy means mind, philosophy means thinking, philosophy means going away from yourself. Philosophy is the art of losing yourself in thoughts, becoming identified with dreams. And one who is living in dreams – one who is just doing the ‘guess work’ by using his head can never experience the TRUTH! A philosopher thinks about truth. A blind man thinks about light.

A realistic man – a spiritual being don’t have to THINK – he has the ‘eyes’, he don’t think about light, he can see it. Seeing is a totally different process; it is a byproduct of meditation.

Philosophy is something that intellectuals indulge in – Spirituality is something that intelligent people embrace. Understand the difference – intellectuality is limited to the HEAD – intellectuality has absolutely no imagination – intelligence is unlimited because it connected to the HEART! Only intelligent men and women has offered this world – great imaginations that have manifested into ‘phones’ and ‘cars’ and ‘air-planes’ and all those inventions that were ridiculed by so called intellectual people!

Intellectuality is a POOR SUBSTITUTE to INTELLIEGNCE – always remember this.

A philosopher is an intellectual being – a spiritual person is an intelligent being.

“I am very anti-philosophic and I avoid philosophy because it is playing with shadows, thoughts, speculation. And you can go on playing infinitely, ad infinitum, ad nauseam; there is no end to it. One word creates another word, one theory creates another theory, and you can go on and on and on. In five thousand years much philosophy has existed in the world, and to no purpose at all.” – Osho

Saturn breaks the illusions of MOON (monkey mind) – and so now you see a native who is or has the potential to become spiritual – because only a realistic person can become spiritual. A realistic person will never try to ESCAPE from the reality of his life – which a philosopher always does! Because a philosopher is trapped in his mind – he indeed is a slave of his mind!

“The mind is a great philosopher. And life is not a philosophy, life is a reality. And philosophy is an escape from reality; philosophy means thinking.
Life is – there is no question of thought.”
-OSHO

Saturn – Facts. Figures. Realistic. Practical. Pragmatic. And Karma centric – man who focuses on actual action and not just imagination!

Moon – Mind, Thoughts, Illusions

Saturn is repressive by nature. Moon is expressive by nature! It is the coming of two contrast energies – (तत्त्व) – Tatva!

Native keeps his thoughts to himself. Many times this becomes a great hurdle especially in matters of LOVE – because the boy loves the girl – but CANNOT express – goes on repressing his feelings – goes on repressing his LOVE until one day the girl goes with some other boy – leaving the repressed Saturn Moon native in a great pain which ultimately leads him into madness – he becomes mad!

“Repression means you are forcing your life energies into the unconscious, throwing them into the basement of your being. There they will go on growing, there they will go on boiling and sooner or later the explosion. That’s why so many people go mad. MADNESS IS THE OUTCOME OF REPRESSION. That’s why so many people are mentally ill –even if not mad, mentally disturbed — all over the world. In America they say that out of four, three persons are mentally disturbed. And don’t think that is so only for America; the only difference between America and other countries is that America has the latest data, that’s all.” – Osho

Repression is Suicide. Expression is Life.

You don’t know exactly what this native is thinking – you don’t know – you don’t have any idea of what this native thinks about you or about a certain matter or a political issue!

Did I say politics? – Then you must know that Saturn Moon natives do well in politics – because in Politics – SECRECY – maintaining confidentiality – efficiently keeping secrets of others is very necessary!

Saturn loves Politics. In fact only a man – only a woman who has STRONG SATURN can really succeed in Politics! Because Saturn brings PATIENCE – and when you are in political life – when you are in politics you need to have the QUALITY of Being Patient – and WAITING for the RIGHT TIME to make the move – to strike!

Saturn loves plotting – scheming – intriguing – and so when MOON (mind) is with Saturn – imagine how ‘political’ the person will be! Always be aware of a SATURN MOON native – they remain silent but their silence is because they are waiting for the right time – to strike back – to make the chek-mate move!

Such men and women are required – because every country needs a good politician who makes the right moves at the right time – and does all this for the larger interest of HIS people – HIS nation!

Always remember – NO PERSON – is useless in this world. And NO PERSON is BAD in this world. If the BAD is used to save the GOOD – then does the BAD remains BAD?

“You cannot create electricity with only the positive pole, you will need the negative pole too. Only with both the negative and the positive pole can you create electricity. Is the negative absolutely negative? It is complementary, so it is not against positive.” – Osho

To save you from a ruthless enemy – you need someone ruthless! Someone who can pull the trigger of the revolver – someone who can use the sword – someone who can go on the battlefield and fight for you OR someone who is CUNNING POLITICIAN who can safeguard the interest of his people by make the right decisions!

So always remember – a THORN is also useful – because to remove a THORN – many times you need a THORN!

Saturn Moon conjunction person may appear as THORNY – but if such a person gets the proper environment – then he can rise to the occasion! A plotter, schemer is gets into politics then these ‘negative qualities’ can actually become ASSET for him or her to succeed in politics!

A HACKER is considered as bad but the same HACKER when starts working with POLICE – CYBER CRIME CELL – then he becomes a great ASSET for the POLICE! You see – it all depends on which SOIL (Environment) the SEED (conjunction) falls.

Saturn Moon conjunction (seed) falling in the appropriate Ascendant Angle can produce:

A good politician
A good preacher
A good Yogi
A good administrator
A good businessman

Saturn Moon conjunction works well for those Ascendant signs that withheld Saturn and Moon as Yoga karaka Planets

Libra Ascendant, Virgo Ascendant, Pisces Ascendant, Aries Ascendant, Scorpio Ascendant, Taurus Ascendant – for these six Ascendants – Moon Saturn Conjunction works well – becomes constructive in nature.

Swami Vivekananda had Saturn Moon conjunction in Virgo Sign.

Understand the fact that SATURN MOON brings BOREDOM – native feels bored often in his life but you all have to understand the REASON for the BOREDOM – to a common soul – BOREDOM comes because he has known all that is on the outside world – and now he doesn’t know what else to do.

But to an EVOLVED SOUL – BOREDOME comes in the state of UDASIN उदासी!

What is the state of उदासी – UDASIN?

“The true meaning of UDASIN is UDA ASIN – one who has settled down within. UPVAS means one who has started coming closer to his SELF. But UDASIN is one who has settled within! UPVAS is therefore a way towards reaching the stage of UDASIN. If you are being closer to yourself than that is UPVAS and if you are totally settled within than that is the state of UDASIN. UDASIN is a man who has settled at the center of his consciousness – and when you are settled within – when you have found your peace within then all those material things on the outside becoming boring.” – Osho

Swami Vivekananda or any other great YOGI (evolved soul) with SATURN MOON conjunction therefore remains in the state of UDASIN – उदासी!

Today – in the divine holy town of SHANISHINGNAPUR (near Ahmednagar, Maharashtra) -rests the Samadhi of one such great उदासी Baba! It is said that your visit to Shani Shingnapur completes ONLY when you visit the SAMADHI MANDIR of उदासी Baba (Udasin Baba)!

This state of UDASIN उदासी – is the the state of SHANI – Lord Saturn! I prostrate before the great divine BIRTH PLACE of LORD SATURN – the place known as SHANI SHINGNAPUR – near Ahmednagar!

This is the real photo of Shani Shingnapur Lord Saturn Mandir – it is said that the doors of every house in this town is never locked – not even in the nights because this is the BIRTHPLACE OF LORD SATURN and so nobody could dare to loot or do anything wrong in Saturn’s homeland!

I have a wish – that someday I too would get an opportunity to visit this birthplace of Shani Dev – Shani Shingnapur – a miraculous town – the Mecca of Lord Saturn! Interestingly – this divine place is near to Shirdi! You see – it is all connected – it is all LinkedIn!

The UDASIN baba whose Samadhi Mandir is present in this divine place has a beautiful story to it….

It happened – there was a young boy, must be 17. He had many dreams, many ambitions – but one day he fell sick and then he was stuck. He started suffering from skin diseases – his hands, his legs – many rashes started appearing – the whole village abandoned him – those were the old days – people were very conservative and narrow minded. They forced him to leave his home, his village and then one night when the whole village was sleeping – the young boy left his village – his whole body was burning with the skin disease – but he kept walking until he reached the sacred town of SHANI SHINGNAPUR!

He started worshipping Lord Saturn. He started meditating on LORD SATURN’s holy name – and whatsoever people would offer him – he would survive on that. And as time passed by – slowly he started recovering – he then started sharing the GREATNESS (MAHIMA) of SHANI DEV (LORD STAURN) – he would go around the town and encourage people to read SHANI MAHATMYA book – he would encourage people to meditate on Lord Saturn’s name – he would show them the miracle – that how his hands and legs were cured just by worshiping Lord Saturn. Days passed and when he was totally cured – he decided to go back to his home – his village!

But Lord Saturn (SHANI DEV) had some different plans for the young man. The night before he was about to leave – Lord Saturn appeared in his dream and said “ Baccha (son) why are you leaving? You should stay here and should continue to spread my message – you should continue to encourage people to walk on the path of devotion, path of love.”

The young man opened his eyes and tears started flowing through his eyes – he got up and bowed before the idol of Lord Saturn – he was touched by the vision that he had in his dream – he could not believe that Lord Saturn had appeared before him to stop him from leaving Shani Shingnapur. From that day – the young man always remained in the town of Shani Shingnapur and he attained many miraculous powers with which he healed many – when he died, his samadhi mandir was build near Shani Mandir!

When he was alive – and serving the poor, healing the diseased men and women – people started addressing him as UDASI BABA!

Why the name UDASI? Because he had absolutely NO AMBITION to attain any material things or pleasures – He used to survive on whatever people would offer – and by chance if some wealthy person would offer more then all of that he would simply donate at Lord Shani’s feet!

UDASI – a beautiful word with a very deep meaning – especially from spiritual perspective!

Always remember – every CONJUNCTION – manifests based on the SOIL (environment) – based on the maturity of the SOUL.

SATURN MOON – SPIRITUAL side can gives birth to someone as beautiful and as spiritual as Swami Vivekananda and Udasi Baba.

SATURN MOON – Negative side can give birth to a repressive depressed child who is bullied by others.

SATURN MOON – Positive side can give birth to seasoned politicians like Sharad Pawar. Sharad Pawar has Saturn MOON conjunction but this conjunction is blessed by the presence of Jupiter in the sign of Aries. He has Saturn Moon in Aries along with Jupiter.

Sharad Pawar is one of the most experienced seasoned politician who has been Defense Minister & Agriculture Minister as well as chief minister of Maharashtra. PM Narendra Modi praises Sharad Pawar in the most generous way possible:

“Whenever the UPA (United Progressive Alliance) government used to block schemes and projects related to Gujarat, as the chief minister I used to always seek help from Sharad Pawar and…he used to help me sort out my issues with the central government,” : PM Narendra Modi.

Sharad Pawar was agriculture minister during the UPA government’s tenure between 2004 and 2014.

Saturn Moon gives you a perfect visionary leadership provided the whole setup of the birth chart is suitable to its growth.

“I keep talking with Pawar at least twice or thrice a month and we exchange notes on various issues faced by the country. We need to use Sharad Pawar’s more than five decades (of) experience in the public life.” – PM Narendra Modi

President of United States – Jimmy Carter also has Saturn Moon conjunction – a great statesman – a great politician! As mentioned above – Saturn Moon conjunction natives DON’T FAKE – they say what they believe is the truth. In a rare interview – Jimmy Carter (Saturn Moon native) shares the reality in regards to the ‘fake media news channels’ that were so hard on Trump.

“I think the media have been harder on Trump than any other president certainly that I’ve known about. I think they feel free to claim that Trump is mentally deranged and everything else without hesitation. I think that President Trump has been under a stricter spotlight than his predecessors.” – Jimmy Carter (President of United States from 1976-1980)

The take away is – that Saturn Moon conjunction cannot tolerate FAKE people, FAKE news channels – news channels and journalist who claim to be impartial but run their ‘news channel’ at the behest of political parties!

Saturn and Moon are enemies – you know why?

Because REAL and FAKE have always been enemies!

Saturn (actual happening) is REAL. Moon (MIND) is make believe!

A man or a woman living under the influence of the MOON (MIND) is always living in a dream world – a world that has NOTHING to do with the actual reality (Saturn)!

Now depending on the strength of Saturn and the strength of Moon – we have to see who has the final say.

On a very higher level – if we observe then it is the MOON (MIND) that afflicts SATURN! Because elusive mind (Moon) distorts the ‘judgement’ of pragmatic Saturn!

Many times the ‘son’ proves to be an utterly ignorant being – the father (Saturn) wants to punish his son so that he comes back to his senses. But the mother (Moon) comes in between and always pampers and prevents her son from his father’s wrath and also tries to manipulate the father’s perspective so that her son gets his way! You see – this is how MOON distorts the Saturn’s sense of judgement – and end result is that the son gets spoiled. 90% of Sons and Daughters are spoiled by MOTHERS and NOT by FATHERS – because Fathers are realistic while the MOTHERS (Moon) are NOT!

Saturn Moon conjunction native are seekers of TRUTH – they speak the TRUTH – they never fear of speaking the TRUTH!

Reminds me of a beautiful story – the story of a boy and his name was Satyakam and he used to play with the King’s son – but a day came when the King’s son said “ From next month – I will be no more available to you because I am going to the great Sage Gautama and I will be learning under HIS guidance.”

Satyakam was a poor boy – he had never seen his father – he had always known his mother – she was his everything – mother and father – both! And so Satyakam went to his mother and said “ Mother – I also want to go and learn under the guidance of the great Sage Gautama.”

Satyakam’s mother was a very wise woman – she was poor but wisdom never comes asking whether you are rich or poor! Her name was Jabala. And so Jabala said “ Satyakam – Sage Gautama is a great teacher – a great scholar but the first question he will ask you is “Who is your father? What is your family name?”

Satyakam was a very inncoent boy – looking into his mother’s eyes he said “ You tell me who is my father – and I will tell Sage Gautama.”

Jabala said “ I don’t know. In my youth when I went about a great deal as a maidservant I conceived you. I don’t know who is your father – because I had to go through several relations. I do not know who is your father. I am Jabala and you are Satyakam, so call yourself Satyakam Jabal.”

The boy agreed and then after several days of journey he reached the hermitage of Sage Gautama.

He bowed before Sage Gautama and said “ Please accept me as your disciple – O master Gautama.”

Sage Gautama was touched by this young boy – his innocence – his aura – his soft voice….

Sage Gautama said “ I will accept you but first tell me who is your father – what is your family name?”

Satyakam again bowed and said “ “I asked my mother what my family name was, and she answered, ‘I don’t know. In my youth when I went about a great deal as a maidservant and then I conceived you. I do not know who is your father. I am Jabala and you are Satyakam, so call yourself Satyakam Jabal.’ Sir, I am therefore Satyakam Jabal.”

Sage Gautama got up and rushed towards Satyakam and gave him a hug.

Sage Gautama said ““None but a true brahmin, a true seeker of truth, would have spoken thus. You have not swerved from the truth, my dear. I will teach you that supreme knowledge.”

TRUTH is REWARDED. Saturn Moon conjunction has all the potential to stand for the TRUTH – even though it may disturb you – it may cause a certain restlessness to you.

We need SATURN MOON people because this world is filled with majority of FAKE people – and that is one of the many reasons that TRUTH is only experienced by few – because TRUTHFUL are very few – very very few!

These people love facts, figures, because Saturn is more interested in facts – that is why the seers have addressed Saturn as JUDGE – JUDGE gives his ORDER only based on FACTS and not emotions and feelings!

Moon distorting Saturn – can affect Saturn’s good qualities of being impartial and judging without any prejudice. Moon Saturn conjunction in Cancer is not good – Saturn is spoiled – simply spoiled and all that good which was expected from this conjunction goes for a toss!

Saturn draining out Moon – too much is always bad. And so when Saturn Moon falls in Capricorn or Aquarius the it gives TOO MUCH strength to Saturn – which makes the native insensitive and too dry – too analytical – and unromantic by nature!

So moderate signs – (apart from Cancer and Capricorn/Aquarius) – are good for this conjunctions.

Since the subject is of being truthful (SATURN MOON) – it reminds me of KARNA – the great warrior!

Remember the incident when Karna cheated Sage Parshuram? Sage Parshuram was the incarnation of Lord Vishnu. He had defeated all Kshatriya Kings – and he had ONE RULE – that whosoever wants to learn under his guidance – whosoever wants to be become his disciple – must be a BRAHMIN!

And Karna was perfectly aware of this condition – but just to attain knowledge – just to seek the great wisdom of Sage Parshuram – he lied to Sage Parshuram – when Parshuram asked “Who are you – what is your background – tell me your caste.”

Karna answered “ My caste is Brahmin. I am a Brahmin and I have come to become your student. Please accept me in your hermitage.”

Sage Parshuram accepted Karna but he was doubtful. And so one day he decided to test if Karna is really a Brahmin. He said to Karna – “I will sleep my keeping my head on your lap. I am tired so just be sure that nobody disturbs my sleep.”

Karna was very happy – Sage Parshuram softly placed his head on Karna’s lap and fell asleep.

But can the master ever fell asleep? It was just a make believe. Then by his miraculous powers – Sage Parshuram created a dangerous Scorpio – while he remained asleep.

Here Karna was seated – trying to make sure that nobody disturb Sage Parshuram – when suddenly the Scorpio (created by Sage Parshuram) appeared on Karna’s lap – and the Scorpio started sucking blood – imagine how painful it must have been for Karna to tolerate such an attack – but he did not move – because moving his lap would disturb the master – Sage Parshuram!

After a while Sage Parshuram opened his eyes and he could see blood flowing from Karna’s lap — Sage Parshuram got up and asked Karna “ Tell me WHO YOU ARE? WHAT IS YOUR CASTE?

Karna said “ I am Brahmin – Master.”

Sage Parshuram was very angry – he said “ You are lying – you cannot be a BRAHMIN because a BRAHMIN cannot have such level of TOLERANCE that you have shown – the Scorpio was sucking blood from your thigh and yet you made no noise – NO BRAHMIN in this world can show such TOLERANCE – such BRAVERY – such GREATNESS – you are NOT BRAHMIN – you are a KSHATRIYA.”

Karna realized his mistake – he said “ I am SORRY master – but I was not willing to learn from anybody else but only from you and since you teach only to BRAHMINS – I had to lie – I had to say that I am Brahmin but in reality I am not a Brahmin – but a Kshatriya.”

And then Sage Parshuram CURSED KARNA – that the knowledge that you have gained through me by lying to me will be of no use to you when you will need it because at that moment you will forgot all that you have learned under me. Now go.”

“Parshuram
Curse to Karna”

And it is said that this became the reason for Karna’s death – because while fighting the greatest battle of Mahabharata against Arjuna – he forgot the knowledge he had gained – his chariot’s wheel got stuck and at that moment – Lord Krishna said to Arjuna “ Kill him – this is the moment – shoot your arrow and kill Karna.”

And Arjuna shoots – that is when one of the greatest warrior – Karna is killed – one lie leads him to defeat!

TRUTH is the key to success. LIE is the reason for failure!

“THE TRUTH DOESN’T COST ANYTHING, BUT A LIE COULD COST YOU EVERYTHING “-KUSHANDWIZDOM.

Saturn Moon conjunction is all for TRUTH – if the conjunction gets support from other planets then the native speaks the TRUTH – if the support is not available even then the native KNOWS the TRUTH but certain selfish motives prevents him from saying the truth or acknowledging the truth.

Saturn Moon natives do well in administrative jobs – police duties – CID, CBI – because Saturn loves the system – and any government administration is indeed an established SYSTEM! And the native generally follows the SYSTEM – he is NOT a rebel kind of person – he will not try to change the system – in fact he loves to FOLLOW the system and that is what he or she does – they remain sincere to the SYSTEM! In fact Saturn Moon natives not only follow the established system but also try to find loop-holes within the SYSTEM – their passion and desire is to strengthen the system by introducing certain changes to the system.

“Eighty-five percent of the reasons for failure are deficiencies in the systems and process rather than the employee. The role of management is to change the process rather than badgering individuals to do better.
-W. Edwards Deming”

Judgement is good – and so the native can utilize the resources effectively – because he or she understands who fits where?

“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid”
-Albert Einstein

Overall Saturn Moon on a positive note is indeed a conjunction that brings a certain depth of understanding to the natives! In fact many of my followers and readers must be having Saturn Moon or Saturn Jupiter conjunction – because both bring depth of understanding – which is significant for an individual to progress on his or her spiritual journey!

Someone as beautiful as Swami Vivekananda – is the ultimate highest and finest evolved example of Saturn Moon Conjuction! When the conjunction falls in the ‘SOIL’ of an evolved soul – then this conjunction is NOT interested in doing better than others – but rather is interested in doing better for others!

मैं ‘किसी से बेहतर करूं क्या फर्क पड़ता है….! मैं ‘किसी का बेहतर करूं बहुत फर्क पड़ता है
“I do better than someone else – what difference does that make! I do better for someone – that indeed makes a great difference” – Osho

My message to all Saturn Moon conjunction natives – irrespective of what ‘SOIL” (environment) is – you should take efforts to turn inwards – you should learn to Let Go – and you should try to adjust to CHANGE – remain OPEN to change – because except change everything else changes – life is a flux – a river – it continues to flow – nothing remains the same – neither the weather – nor the times – if you are down – then that is a sign that soon you are going to rise in life – because that is how life is – UP and DOWN – Morning and Night – Warm and Cold. It is these CONTRASTS that keep us alive – remember this – it is these HIGH phase and LOW phase keeps us going – makes us stronger – more matured – more evolved as a person!

“Ups and Downs in life are very important to keepus going, Because a straight line even in an ECG means we are not alive.”
-Ratan Tata

SO never get depressed and never repress your feeling – because as they say – Repression is Suicide, Expression is Life!

Stop repressing your feelings and start expressing yourself – that is the most beautiful way of being yourself!

“Express your uniqueness in whatsoever you do. Express your individuality. Let existence be proud of you. Life will not be felt like a drag; it will become a fragrance.” – Osho

When you love someone – express your feelings to that person.

When you hate someone – express your feelings to that person.

When you want to laugh – laugh to your heart’s content.

AND…..when you want to cry – when you cannot control your tears – then let those tears flow through your eyes – because only a NATURAL person can cry – only a man who is following his heart can cry to his heart’s content and GOD loves such a person – Master loves such a person because a heartless man can never cry – only the most beautiful person – the person who follows his heart – the person who has a pure heart – can cry and that ‘cry’ always touch the skies – that is how God comes – when your eyes become wet – when your heart starts beating with LOVE & DEVOTION!

There are moments when the inexpressible can be expressed only through your tears!

Open up – don’t remain a closed person – because God never comes to a person who remains closed, repressed. God comes only to that man who declares to the skies his reality – without being ashamed – without thinking of who will say what….

“The greatest fear in the world is of the opinions of others. And the moment you are unafraid of the crowd you are no longer a sheep, you become a lion. A great roar arises in your heart, the roar of freedom.”
-Osho

Always remember – even Jesus had haters, and even Krishna had haters and even Buddha had haters – haters are always there – but our focus should NOT be on those who hate us – but on those who LOVE us! And so to all Saturn Moon conjunction natives – live like a lion – let the great roar arise in your heart – the roar of freedom – total freedom!

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

“लोहा गरम हैं. मार दो हथौड़ा.” – a perfect phrase for Saturn Mars conjunction which literally means “The iron metal is hot – hit it with the hammer.”

The ‘message’ that this phrase imply is that the ‘TIMING’ is right to execute the ‘ACTION’.

Saturn is all about being patient. Saturn always waits and waits and waits until the TIMING is perfect to ACT. Action is Mars – the real execution – whether it is pulling the trigger of the revolver or engaging into the actual act of sex – the energy of Mars is necessary. Mars is connected to ACTION. People having weak Mars often face sexual impotency – for a happy marital life (Sexual life) Mars needs strength and even for entrepreneurship and industrious undertakings – you need the Martian outgoing outspoken dashing dynamic quality within you!

A positive SATURN MARS native executes his plan in the most organized manner! You can say that he or she is too good in executing large organizational activities! These natives are excellent at executing the plans. They believe in executing and not just planning strategies.

Genius is when an idea and the execution of that idea are simultaneous. – Albert Einstein

Many times people plan and communicate a lot of ideas and forget to implement those ideas. They assume that by communicating certain ideas or plans – they get executed. When in reality nothing happens until the take the efforts to get their ideas executed!

The single biggest problem with communication is the illusion that it has taken place. – George Bernard Shaw

Since Saturn Mars natives are good at execution of ideas and plans – you see many C-LEVEL Executives with this conjunction who are highly equipped with the knowledge and the ‘Judgement’ (Saturn) when it comes to executing a certain plan or taking certain Action (Mars).

Without strategy, execution is aimless. Without execution, strategy is useless. – Morris Chang

Strategy (Saturn) – Execution (Mars) – Saturn Mars conjunction is the perfect tatva (essence) that brings forth the quality of executing strategy effectively. He or she is a genius who ensures that the strategy and the execution of the strategy is simultaneous.

Basically these natives are highly dynamic organized action oriented individuals.

Generally men are attracted to a HOT Woman who has those appealing sexy looks (Venus Mars) – but a Saturn Mars woman is not just hot by appearance – she is also very hot (dynamic action-packed) when it comes to driving an organization or a business! Dealing with her is not as easy as dealing with a Venus Mars woman – because here – Saturn is in picture – here she will be very pragmatic in her dealings and if you try to cheat her – you are in trouble – BIG trouble! Because Saturn Mars woman are DOUBLE HOT – real HOT – they can give you nightmares – so be careful when you are dealing or relating with a SATURN MARS woman!

Have you seen the Oscar award winning movie – Salt? Reminds me of Salt (the dynamic action-packed lead character in the movie) – when the topic of Saturn Mars conjunction comes up. A shot from the movie Salt reflects the dynamic action-oriented tatva (essence) of Saturn Mars conjunction.

Saturn Mars native’s life never falls in a straight line – they go through many tragedies and ups and downs – betrayals and ‘games’ – so much so that you can say that their life is full of spice – MASALA LIFE!

Saturn Mars conjunction indeed takes the native through many upheavals – and there is absolutely no second thought to this fact!

If you like haughty women – women who are dynamic and action packed – then you will be not disappointed with a Saturn Mars conjunction woman! Because she comes with all those ‘special ingredients’ that puts her on the forefront – she is always leading the pack – you cannot expect a ‘lioness’ to sit home and live a normal routine life! She is born to lead – she is born to go through a life that is packed with many ‘adventures’!

ADVENTURE is what these natives like – a woman with this conjunction is ‘dashing’ and ‘dynamic’ – she is always on the move!

Adventure Can Be An End In Itself. Self-Discovery Is The Secret Ingredient. – Grace Lichtenstein

In the history of US Presidential Elections – it was only in 2016 that a woman dared to run for the Presidency – and her name was Hillary Clinton!

Can you imagine – how difficult and how much of efforts and how much of dynamism and courage is required to run for the most powerful political position in today’s world – US Presidential elections?

But Hillary Clinton decided to run for the race to White House. She is a Saturn Mars Conjunction native! Hillary Clinton has Saturn Mars conjunction in her 10th house (Cancer sign).

I have always believed that women are not victims, we are agents of change, we are drivers of progress, we are makers of peace – all we need is a fighting chance.

This is how a Saturn Mars conjunction woman is! “All we need is a fighting chance.”

You see – they are fighters – they will never give up – they have the courage and stamina to fight until they win or until they are defeated – but they will never give up in the middle of a war or an election or a fight! A man who marries Saturn Mars woman need to have a lot of patience and tolerance – because he has married a ‘woman on FIRE’ – and so only a matured man can understand and can provide the SPACE that a Saturn Mars conjunction woman needs – and she needs it badly – very badly!

A narrow mind husband who typically wants to POSSESS and DOMINATE over his wife – will utterly fail because you cannot CONTROL a lioness (Saturn Mars conjunction woman) – to live a happy martial life with a woman who has Saturn Mars conjunction – you also need to be a LION!

To have a wife or girlfriend who has Saturn Mars conjunction – you need to have an open liberal strong heart – a weak feeble heart cannot sustain – cannot hold on to a woman having Saturn Mars conjunction!

A lioness has got a lot more power than the lion likes to think she has. – Jacki Weaver

Similar is the case with Men having Saturn Mars conjunction – the difference is the perception of the SOCIETY – because in the old times – WOMEN were completely dominated by the MEN and so women with MARS SATURN conjunction obviously was a great pain – a challenge for the society! Because they are rebels – action oriented women who want to VOICE OUT their thoughts and ideas which old time society would not tolerate and so Saturn MARS conjunction women became a subject of taboo because Men wanted to have full control – and a woman with this conjunction won’t let him DIRVE her – instead she would want to drive HIM! And so the friction and so the noise and so the fights and so the condemnation of Saturn Mars women was a normal practice during the OLD DAYS.

Man has ruled over women for millennia. He has been given every opportunity and chance and woman has been repressed continuously, has been crippled. She has not been allowed to compete with man shoulder to shoulder in life. That’s why we don’t know how many Gautam Buddhas on the women’s side did not get the opportunity to blossom. We don’t know how many Albert Einsteins have simply been denied any
possibility for growth. – Osho

Many talented women during until recent – had been denied the right to showcase their talent and their aspirations – MEN have always repressed WOMEN – for centuries after centuries – in China, women were considered as SOUL-LESS! And so if the husband kills his wife – then the Chinese court would not punish him. Why would someone punish you if you throw out your ‘FURNITURE’? In ancient China – Women were considered no less than – ‘FURNITURE’ – use it and throw it – nobody will put you in the lock-up!

For centuries – MAN has always tried to DOMINATE over the WOMAN – and the reason is his own inferior complex – the reason is that he is perfectly aware that he cannot produce life.

Woman is capable of producing life; man is not. In that way he is inferior, and that inferiority has played a great role in the domination of women by men. The inferiority complex works in this way: it pretends to be superior – to deceive oneself and to deceive the whole world. So man down the ages has been destroying the woman’s genius, talents, capacities, so that he can prove himself superior – to himself and to the world. – Osho

In a society that was dominated by MEN – in a society where in developed countries like US – women were denied the rights to VOTE until the August of 1920, in such a male dominated society – the survival and blossoming of a woman having Saturn Mars conjunction was indeed very difficult! However with times changing and women getting more power – more space – more legal rights – the SATURN MARS conjunction women started getting the required ‘GROUND’ to make others listen to their voice and to their ambitions and their aspiration of attaining the higher positions in life.

Dynamic women warriors – adventurous men and women generally have MARS and SATURN in strong position.

Any woman having Saturn and Mars in prominent position – is not to be taken lightly – she has all the ingredients within her that can make her a great ‘Mover & Shaker’ – and the credit goes to the high voltage power of Saturn Mars conjunction!

Women with this conjunction are indeed high voltage strong women – who will not hesitate to give you a befitting reply.

Strong Women Are Often Perceived As Cold And Mean Simply Because They Refuse To Be Disrespected, Mistreated Or Taken For Granted.

To put this conjunction in plain words – Saturn Mars conjunction gives birth to a HAUGHTY DOMINATING and COURAGOUS woman who carves her path – and makes a great career! They are the women who says:

For a weak boyfriend or a weak husband – such a strong woman proves to be a great asset – especially during the times of crisis! So having a Saturn Mars conjunction woman is a ‘blessing in disguise’!

A Man With Dreams Needs A Woman With Vision. Her Perspective, Faith, And Support Will Change His Reality. If She Doesn’t Challenge You, Then She’s No Good For You. Men Who Want To Stay Ordinary Will Tell You Not To Have Expectations Of Them. Men Who Want To Be Great Will Expect You To Push Them, Pray With Them And Invest In Them.

A strong women or a strong girlfriend is always good for you – provided you can understand them and provide them with SPACE that they need!

Venus Mars conjunction gives birth to a HOT sexy woman but Saturn Mars conjunction gives birth to a woman who is not just hot in appearance but also haughty and dominating by nature!

These women have an upper hand over any matter that relates to them. You can say – yes, they are bossy by nature – but that ‘high handedness’ gives them the much needed ‘power’ to break through the hurdles and challenges and make a way for themselves!

Any woman who has Saturn and Mars together or as ‘neighbors’ (Saturn in 1st and Mars in 2nd house) – is a haughty dynamic action packed woman.

Indira Gandhi had Saturn in Ascendant and Mars in her second house.

Saturn Mars conjunction in a woman’s chart is a ‘blessing in disguise’ for a father who was expecting a son but had a daughter! Because a Saturn Mars woman is equivalent or rather more than a son – she has comes with the potential to become the bread winner of the house! So if you have a daughter having Saturn Mars conjunction – then she is no more a daughter but a SON to your family!

Having a girlfriend with Saturn Mars conjunction is indeed a challenging situation – because you cannot cheat her and if you cheat her then you are finished – it is – the end for you. And so if you don’t like your girlfriend anymore – if you cannot understand her ambitions and aspirations – then you better leave her – but don’t ever dare to CHEAT a Saturn Mars conjunct girlfriend!

Don’t cheat in a relationship. If you are not happy then just Leave.

This is a good conjunction for Military posts OR for women who aim to get enrolled in the Army. It is also a good position for natives who aim for IAS or equivalent high Government posts. Competition is what they like because they love to FIGHT BACK!

I find this conjunction more interesting in Women’s charts then men because – this conjunction brings the masculine side (fighting) of the woman in a very effective way! Many times the woman appears as manly – and that makes them feel more happy – because their ‘deep desire or wish’ is to stand EQUAL with MEN.

In conservative society – Saturn Mars women – therefore is said to be a threat to Man’s authority over his family or his life in general. Jayalalitha – the former chief minister of Tamil Nadu also had Saturn in her third house and Mars with Moon in her fourth house. Very dynamic, powerful individual who was also haughty by nature with a high hand.

Saturn – KARMA CENTRIC

MARS – REVOLT. REBEL FORCES.

And so Saturn Mars individuals are rebels – they stand against the INJUSTICE and HYPOCRICY of the society. They are very intense individuals who will call a spade a spade, not a gardening tool.

Martin Luther – was one such rebel! And through his rebellious activities he challenged the several teachings and practices of the Roman Catholic Church. The most beautiful revelation that Martin Luther shared was that salvation and eternal life are NOT earned by good deeds but are received only as the free gift of God’s grace through the believer’s faith in Jesus Christ as redeemer from sin. Martin Luther was legally challenged by the Pope and the Holy Roman Emperor – because he had written “Ninety-five Theses” of 1517 in which he had mentioned the wrong-doings of the Catholic Church and the Pope. He was tried in the court – he was asked if he is the Author of “Ninety-five Theses” – he said “Yes I am.” Then he was asked whether he still stands with the content of his book. TO which Martin Luther says “Unless I am convinced by the testimony of the Scriptures or by clear reason (for I do not trust either in the pope or in councils alone, since it is well known that they have often erred and contradicted themselves), I am bound by the Scriptures I have quoted and my conscience is captive to the Word of God. I cannot and will not recant anything, since it is neither safe nor right to go against conscience. May God help me. Amen.”

The court obviously held him guilty because he was talking against the scriptures – the conventional religious books and he was also talking against the Catholic Church and the Pope!

So the court declared that nobody should give food to Martin Luther and anybody is free to kill him since there will be no legal charges levied upon the killer!

But Martin Luther had good friends – and they helped him escape – he then finds shelter in at Wartburg Castle where he does the most rebellious act of those times – he TRANSLATES the HOLY BIBLE from LATIN to GERMAN! It reminds me of Saint Dyaneshwar who also did the most rebellious thing of those times – Saint Dyaneshwar translated the BHAGVAD GITA from SANSKRIT to MARATHI language which was the language of the commoners! During those times only the BRAHMINS had access to BHAGVAD GITA and the other could not have access or even they get access they cannot understand a single word because the BHAGVAD GITA was available only in SANSKRIT and only the upper caste native (BRAHMINS, KSHATRIYA) were well versed in SANSKRIT Language! And so the other caste men and women who were the MAJOR CHUNK of population – they were denied the privilege to know the great scripture of BHAGVAD GITA!

Similarly in medieval Europe – Bible was available only in Latin language which was the language of the upper class – but Martin Luther – the rebel priest and author – translated the Latin Bible to German Bible – making way for the commoners to have access to the Holy Bible – it was indeed one of the greatest and historic event – and as expected the Catholic Pope and the Catholic Church ferociously opposed Martin Luther – because making the Bible available in German language was a direct threat to their importance and their status!

A great man – and a great author – Martin Luther died at the age of 62 – and the last statements of HIS are indeed so beautiful that they should be written in GOLD!

These were the last words of Martin Luther who revolted against the hypocrisy of Catholic Church:

No one can understand Virgil’s Bucolics unless he has been a shepherd for five years. No one can understand Virgil’s Georgics, unless he has been a farmer for five years. No one can understand Cicero’s Letters (or so I teach), unless he has busied himself in the affairs of some prominent state for twenty years. Know that no one can have indulged in the Holy Writers sufficiently, unless he has governed churches for a hundred years with the prophets, such as Elijah and Elisha, John the Baptist, Christ and the apostles. Do not assail this divine Aeneid; nay, rather prostrate revere the ground that it treads. We are beggars: this is true.” – Martin Luther last words

Can you imagine what it takes to REBEL against the MIGHTY CATHOLIC CHURCH and the POPE and to go against the ROMAN EMPIRE? But Martin Luther was indeed a blessed soul – he was an Augustinian monk who lived a monastic life – talked against the wrongs of the Catholic Church and the wrong doings of the Pope – he made the Holy Bible available to commoners by translating the Bible from Latin to German language – and moreover he made way for nuns to marry – he himself got married to Katharina von Bora, a former nun, and set a model for the practice of clerical marriage, allowing Protestant clergy to marry.

You may have the wisdom – you may have realized the TRUTH – but to BRING IT FORTH to the masses – you need to have the COURAGE – to speak against the WRONG DOINGS of the society – you NEED to have the GUTS – you need to have the dynamism – the dashing attitude – which SATURN MARS CONJUNCTION bring along!

Martin Luther had SATURN MARS Conjunction in Libra sign.

Saturn Mars conjunction native are always on the EDGE of the SWORD! Meaning they many times fall into situations where there is no option than to FIGHT BACK!

Remind me of a story – there was a young man and he fell in love with a woman who was married to a great warrior! LOVE knows NO LOGIC – LOVE HAPPENS! Love happened between the two and then one day the great warrior returned back home and was angry to find his wife with her lover!

The warrior was not a common man – he had certain ethics – so even though he wanted to KILL the lover of his wife – still he said to the lover – “ Come and fight with me and then whosoever remains alive will marry and make love to this woman.”

The lover was terrified. He did not even know how to hold a sword — he was a poor farmer, he had never been trained in swordsmanship. He said, “Sir, although you are being nice, and respecting even a poor farmer like me and giving him an opportunity, still I need some time to prepare. I don’t know anything about swordsmanship. At least give me a few minutes so that I can go to the greatest master — who lives nearby in a monastery, a Zen monk — to have some clue.”

The warrior was boiling with anger but looking at the lover of his wife – he said “ You can go and take one day or one week or one month or one year – but I want you to comeback well-prepared – I will be waiting to fight and kill you.. now go….”

The lover of his wife – went to another great warrior – a ZEN master. The Zen master said, “Even years of training will not help you. Your lover’s husband is just second to me in the whole country — you cannot hope to compete with him. My suggestion is: this is the right moment to fight.”

The lover was confused. He said “ What are you saying – I don’t know anything about swordsmanship and I have had never fought with anyone on a battlefield – how am I suppose to win? How come you say that this is the right moment to fight back”

The Zen master smiled and said “Yes, because you have one thing certain — your death. Now more than that you cannot lose. Your master has many things to lose: his wife, his prestige, his respectability as a warrior; he is a great landlord… all his money — his mind cannot be total while he is fighting. But you can be total. You have to be total — just a moment of unawareness and you are gone; you have to be totally alert. This is the right moment; don’t bother about any discipline — you simply take the sword and go.”

The lover took the sword and came back. Standing outside the warrior’s house he said to his lover’s husband – “ Sir – come outside your house.”

The great warrior came outside his house and was shocked to see the lover of his wife – he asked “Have you learned how to fight using the sword?”

The lover said “There is no need of learning anything. I am ready – lets fight.”

The warrior was confused – he could not understand from where does this man has gained so much of confidence! Before the fight begins – it was a custom to bow to each other – and so according to the custom – the warrior bowed before the lover of his wife and the lover bowed before the husband of his lover. It was an old Japanese custom that even with the enemy, you have to respect his dignity, his humanity, his divinity.

And then the fight begin. The lover started hitting the warrior – and he had never touched a sword his whole life! And yet he started hitting the warrior – a great intense passion was burning within his being. The warrior was at a loss, because where any expert would have hit, the lover would not hit because he had no idea; he would hit somewhere where no expert would have ever hit. And he was fighting with such totality that the warrior started moving backwards, and as the warrior started moving backwards, the servant gathered more courage. He was moving his sword without knowing why — to what purpose, or where he was hitting. And since it has been decided that his death is certain, now there is nothing to worry about — all worries belong to life. Soon he cornered the warrior. The warrior could not move further – he was caught because there was a wall behind him that stopped him from moving backwards and so he could not move backwards anymore. He was so afraid of death, for the first time in his life, and he said, “Wait! You can have my wife, you can have my properties; I am renouncing the world, I am becoming a monk.”

The lover got the wife of the warrior – two lovers came together – the wife of the warrior was also surprised because she had never seen her lover fight with a sword! She asked how did you manage?

The lover said “ I had NO OPTION – my death was certain – and so fought the battle as if it was the last battle of my life – as if death is certain if I miss one move – and that brought so much totality in me – so much courage within me – that I just fought with TOTALITY – and I am now happy that you and me – we both will be living our life together for the rest of our life.”

The lover must be a SATURN MARS conjunction specimen! Because he had NO OPTION – he was CHALLENGED by SITUATION – and this is how natives of SATURN MARS are always challenged by SITUATIONS! And then it is these special situations that BRING THE BEST OUT OF YOU!

Totality, Awareness, Courage – all of these comes in special situations that without any discipline, just the situation can create so much awakening in you. – Osho

Suddenness and the courage to face unexpected sudden situations is a part and parcel of Saturn Mars conjunction. The native absorbs shocks of life – this conjunction bestows the native with good ‘shock absorbers’ – because after going through many shocks – the native develops a good potential to absorb shocks in life.

Saturn Mars conjunctions works well for native having Aries Ascendant, Cancer, Leo, Scorpio Ascendant, Capricorn and Aquarius Ascendant. The most suitable Ascendant for this conjunction is Libra Ascendant.

After the death of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb – the Marathas rose to power. And the success of the Marathas is much attributed to the intelligent statesmanship of the PESHWAS!

Peshwa means Prime Minister. The Maratha Empire after the death of Shahu Maharaj – was driven by the Peshwa. The Peshwa were Brahmins from Konkan (Konkanastha Brahmins) who were also well versed in the battle warfare and swordsmanship. The very first Peshwa – Balaji Vishwanath Bhat was a Saturn Mars conjunction native. He had Saturn Mars Conjunction in his Ascendant – Leo Sign!

The story of Balaji Vishwanath Bhat is very engaging and consists of many upheavals. He started as clerk in Chatrapatti Shivaji Maharaj’s administration. He lived and witnessed the political era that was full of blood and fight while serving under Chatrapatti Shivaji Maharaj and Chatrapatti Sambhaji Maharaj. His post remained the same – at most he was promoted to senior clerk post but not beyond that.

However during the reign of Chatrapatti Shahu Maharaj – (Son of Sambhaji Mharaj) – he played an instrumental role in helping Shahu Maharaj gain control over territories that were under Queen Tara Bai (Daughter in law of Chatrapatti Shivaji Maharaj). This unique contribution evantually helped him to attain the highest position of Peshwa (Prime Minister) under Shahu Maharaj.

Peshwa Bajiro was the son of Peshwa Balaji Vishwanath Bhat.

A common clerk rise to the position of Prime Minister – Saturn Mars is such a struggle story – that brings many ups and downs, struggles, fights and generally brings BHAGYODAYA (FORTUNE) at late years of life (Saturn- delays).

A beautiful painting of Balaji Vishwanath Bhat – the founding father of the Peshwa dynasty.

It is said that the Britishers gained control of India – only when the Peshwas surrendered in 1818 and the great royal grand palace having many tall towers – Shaniwar Vada – (Saturday Palace) fell in the hands of the British!

A beautiful picture of the remaining of the great palace of the Peshwa and once the power center of Indian Politics – Shaniwar Wada

Shaniwar Wada is the pride of Pune city – because it is from here that the real power was exercised and decisions were made that impacted the majority of Indian territories including Delhi.

The Peshwas ruled from Shaniwar Wada in the years starting from 1732 to 1818.

Approximately for 80 years – this royal palace remained the epicenter of POWER, LUXURY and WEALTH.

Always remember – a certain CONJUNCTION (QUALITY) Tatava – repeats within the FAMILY! So if you have SATURN MARS conjunction then either your mother or father or grandmother or grandfather may have the same SATURN MARS conjunction!

In the dynasty of Mughals or in the dynasty of PESHWAs also we see certain conjunctions repeating itself and that is natural because the way our blood has the DNA of our parents – similarly our being also takes certain qualities (CONJUNCTIONS) from our parents! That is how FAMILIES are formed – based on the similarities of conjunctions (qualities) and placements.

In the dynasty of Peshwas – After Balaji Vishwanath Bhat – his younger son – CHIMAJI BALLAL also known as Appa had Saturn Mars conjunction. CHIMAJI was the younger brother of the much famed Peshwa BAJIRO of Bajirao Mastani.

Interestingly in the succeeding Peshwas – Madhavrao Peshwa, Raghunathrao Peshwa (Raghoba) and the last Peshwa – Bajirao II – the connection between Saturn and Mars is prominently seen – all of them had Saturn Mars opposition – which is more aggressive than Saturn Mars conjunction!

Opposition is always aggressive then Conjunction! Opposition is an open fight between two qualities (planets) and conjunction is the amalgamation of two qualities (planets)!

However one cannot conclude that all conjunctions are good and all oppositions are bad – it all depends on the play of energies – nakshatras and ascendant angles (Dharma, Kama, Artha, Moksha)!

There are four angles to group of ascendants. DHARMA – RELIGIOUS. KAMA – SEXUAL. ARTHA – PRACTICAL COMMERCIAL MONEY MAKING. MOKSHA – LIBERATION, SPIRITUAL.

Depending on the Ascendant sign – the results of Saturn Mars conjunctions vary from best to worst!

This is a conjunction that works well for those souls who are born to change the world through their dynamism and courage.

Even a man who is born on streets can rise to high position with this unique conjunction of Saturn Mars! Because only a man who NEVER GIVE UP – only a man who continues with his efforts – succeeds in the end!

It is said Thomas Edison failed several times – then all his colleagues left him – abandoned him – even his closest assistant left him because he thought that Edison was wasting his time in inventing a bulb. But Edison though left alone – continued with his efforts – and one night – at 2 AM it happened – Edison was in his living room and the first BULB on this planet lit up – and Edison was so happy – after so many years of labor and persistence – the BULB was finally switched on – and the light was so bright that the whole room was full of light. Edison’s wife was fast asleep in the bedroom. She heard some noise and so she woke up and came walking to the living room. She was still not fully awake – she looked at the Bulb and said to Edison “ Switch off that bulb – it is throwing so much light.”

Edison said “ What are you talking? It took ten years for me to switch on this bulb and you are saying switch off the bulb. Sprinkle some water on your eyes and come to see the miracle of this century, darling. I did it – my invention has succeeded. The world has got its first bulb!”

Efforts – never giving up attitude – fight back – being a warrior – all of these reflects the qualities of Saturn Mars conjunction.

Lastly the message for all women having Saturn Mars conjunction is that don’t try to copy MEN – don’t try to be MANLY – if you really want to make your mark as a WOMAN than just Be Yourself – be natural – a natural person always is more appealing.

The woman should not try to imitate man; otherwise she will be only a second-grade man. She will never become equal, she will be only a carbon copy. Be original. Be yourself. – Osho

And the message to all Saturn Mars men is to curb your dominating nature and to nurture the sensitive side of your being – try to be more loving towards women, more understanding towards the women in your life.

A woman is to be loved; not understood. That is the first understanding. – Osho

With this first understanding – you can then get well connected with the women in your life!

Saturn Mars indeed is a very hot conjunction that brings intense passion, valor, bravery, rebellious nature and the ‘guts’ to call spade as spade. But along with this masculine manly qualities – LOVE is also essential to nurture you and to bring you to a full circle! The circle of life becomes full only when there is LOVE in your being – in your life. The darkness of the night is illuminated only when the Moon becomes Full! Similarly the darkness of your life illuminates only when you let LOVE happen. Saturn Mars brings a great deal of EGO – and as long as you are caught up in your EGO – you cannot let LOVE happen! Love happens only when you put aside your EGO – when you stop moving around as if you are ‘SOMEBODY’ – and when you start living your life by being a NOBODY!

When you love you have to become Nobody. If you remain Somebody, then love never happens. – Osho

Love is missing in the life of Saturn Mars native – because you remain ‘Somebody’ – the moment you start becoming a NOBODY – love will start welling up in your life – then there will a song, a dance, then life will be no more an arid desert land but an oasis! Then everything around you will be the same but you will be no more the same – then life will have a purpose to live! With love you start becoming alive – always remember – LOVE IS ALWAYS IN THE AIR – but it is only when you CONNECT with LOVE that you start feeling that LOVE IS IN THE AIR! In reality – LOVE – is always around us – within us – all we need is to break the ice of EGO – so that the pure fresh nectar of love starts flowing…..transforming our lives into beautiful oasis!

A man who does not run towards the road of Love – ends walking a road where no one lives!

Love can take you anywhere and everywhere and so wherever you are and whatever you do – Be in Love.

To Love is to experience God! Because God is Love, and Love is Real.

Lots of ways to reach God, I chose love. – Rumi

Love brings balance in your life. Money is necessary, success is necessary but above all – LOVE IS FAR MORE NECESSARY – and this is something that Saturn Mars native should always remember.

Love grounds you. It orients you. Love brings your awareness to others and yourself. Love opens your mind and heart to others and yourself. Love settles you and gives you balance. – Gary Zukav

Eventually as you all move on with this wonderful journey called life – you will start self-realizing that LOVE HEALS everything and LOVE is all that there is!

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

>>>Next Conjunction of the series – Saturn Venus Conjunction.

Stay blessed. And stay tuned.

Karma.

Even Saints cannot escape the karmic cycle what to say about a common man like me or you!

Karma is categorized into three parts.

The first part – SANCHIT. The word Sanchit means ‘TOTAL’ – all that is accumulated from all your past lives. Whenever I say ‘you’ or ‘your’ – let it be very clear that it is for all my followers including the questioner.

‘Total’ – SANCHIT KARMA – that is NOT what the Saturn in your birth chart represents.

The second part – Prarabdha (प्रारब्ध). How many years can you live in this human form? 50? 70? 80? 100? – every human birth has a certain limitation. And so you certainly cannot go through SANCHIT KARMA (Because it is the total of all your Karma – it is HUGE) so everything cannot be experienced in one human birth – only a part of the SANCHIT KARMA can be experienced – this part of SANCHIT KARMA is called Prarabhda (प्रारब्ध).

Prarabhda (प्रारब्ध) ‘Actual experience – actual results this life’ though just a part of the TOTAL (SANCHIT) – this part of your karmic cycle is represented by the placement of SATURN in your birth chart.

The third type – Kriyamaan. An on-going small part of the big part (Prarabhda) of the Total (Sanchit) – every day, week – that you continue to experience the small part of the Prarabhda.

Kriyamaan ‘Ongoing karmic dues’ – this is represented by the transiting SATURN. So when you say ‘MY Saturn is in the 12th house from my moon” – you are currently paying the dues of the 12th house – the 12th house responsibilities pile up – the 12th house loss comes over – the 12th house spiritual experiences also come over – so everything related to 12th and the 6th comes over. Saturn’s 7th aspect works more strongly.

So, see how beautiful is all this!

Saturn is a friend. HE is a friend to every man and every woman who is following the path of TRUTH – who is sincerely living his life with utmost faith and love in your heart. Even a strict Saturn melts down when He sees someone who is humble, someone who has absolutely killed the poison called EGO.

If you are too logical – too calculative than SATURN will judge you accordingly. Saturn will be also too logical, too calculative with you.

Once it happened, a poor man and his name was Lazarus, Lazarus lived on the streets of London. He was a homeless man. But a man of heart. One day he died – and on the same day – the richest merchant of the town also died.

After death, Lazarus went directly to Heaven. And the richest man of the town went directly to Hell.

Now the rich man was certainly annoyed, angry. Turning to God, he said “ God, there must have been some mistake – I should have been in Heaven and that poor man Lazarus should have been in here – in this HELL. And it so hot here, of course, you don’t have an air conditioner, the rich man became thirsty – he said: “Can I ask Lazarus to bring a glass of water for me?”

God said “ You just sit here quietly. Lazarus was thirsty many times, nearly dying at your door, and you never gave him anything. He was dying, hungry at your door and there was a feast every day, and many were invited, but he was always chased away from the door by your servants because guests were coming, powerful guests, politicians, diplomats, rich men, and a beggar standing there would look awkward. Your servants chased him away and he was hungry, and the people who were invited were not hungry. You never looked at Lazarus. Now it is impossible.’

Now it is IMPOSSIBLE.

Read these words. These words are significant. You will get only that what you have done to others.

When God said these words to that rich ignorant man – it is said that Lazarus was listening and Lazarus laughed.

He laughed because he could not believe that a Beggar like him is in Heaven and the richest man is in Hell.

And Lazarus will laugh at you also if you too behave like that ignorant rich man – because then you will be sent to Hell. And the same Lazarus will also laugh at you – and welcome you in the Heaven – if you show compassion, love, and understanding towards those who are in need, those who are not as fortunate as you.

It all depends on what kind of Lazarus you attract towards you – it all depends on what kind of Saturn you attract towards you!

It all depends on that one person called YOU. It all begins with YOU!

I keep receiving many emails and most of them have one common question “We have NOT done anything wrong to anybody and still why are we suffering, why are we jobless, why are we not getting a suitable bride or groom for marriage? Why we are still unmarried, why we are still not having any job? Why we are having no profits in our business? Why we are not having the sexual pleasures that others in our family have? ”

Many such questions come and they keep coming in lots – today the answer is being answered –

And the answer is understanding the type of KARMAS that I have mentioned above. This life – you may not have done anything wrong to anybody – and yet – it is your PRARABHDA KARMA (A small part of your TOTAL Sanchit) – so if you are doing good – if you claim to have lived this life with pure consciousness – by causing or hurting nobody – then these good Karma of yours is getting accumulated in your SANCHIT KARMA (the TOTAL).

The PRARABHDA – a part of the TOTAL (Natal Saturn) may not be good – but it does not mean that the future births are going to be as bad as this one is!

Because every birth – a new part a new Prarabhda KARAMA comes on your plate!

So now understand the fact that for this birth – we are observing 2 KARMAS – or in astrology term – 2 states of SATURN!

NATAL SATURN – PRARABDHA KARMA

TRANSITING SATURN – KRIYAMAN KARMA

SANCHIT KARMA – is the TOTAL – and the charts that we cast is not TOTAL – it is for this birth – and therefore we call it BIRTH CHART.

So precisely for this birth – only two positions of Saturn become critical to our existence – NATAL SATURN and TRANSITING SATURN.

Quality. And Nature.

Understand this – and I appeal to all my followers – this is significant.

A girl looks beautiful. Very beautiful. Her eyes, her cheeks, her nose, her color complexion – everything is beautiful – so much so that you just can’t ignore her looks – you have to appreciate her beauty!

Now, this is the quality of her facial appearance. She *is* beautiful and there no second thought about it.

Now comes the next question – How is her nature? And many times nature goes for a toss! And by the time the boyfriend is aware of her nature – he is already caught! Trapped in her clutches and now there is no way out!

So similarly – the ZODIAC SIGN represents the QUALITY. While the NAKSHATRA represents the overall NATURE.

Now having both in good books is a matter of your PRARABHDA KARMA – a part of your TOTAL KARMA (SANCHIT)!

Whenever you have a beautiful girl that also has a good nature – you are a blessed man. Then your material life is a superhit movie!

Similarly when you have a QUALITY SIGN having a suitable NAKSHATRA for SATURN – then your birth chart rocks in true sense!

So understand the fact that SIGN and NAKSHATRA has to compliment the related PLANET – then be it Saturn or any other planet.

But now since we are talking about SATURN – it has to do more with the QUALITY & NATURE of your KARMA.

Let’s take the example of a hypocrite woman. And I see many of them almost every day! So let us take this example. Now a hypocrite woman wants to donate something so that she feels good and gets some ‘attention’ from society.

Now in the name of donation – she will buy some inferior quality grains, rice and donate it to an orphanage.

Now here the Nature of giving is recorded. But at the same time Quality of giving is also recorded.

So here Saturn will fall in an ordinary quality sign with a nakshatra that is positive by nature.

So what will happen than? Then this woman may progress but her progress will be limited to peanuts whereas a woman who truly donates with an open heart – quality food – she will progress in leaps and bounds because in her case the Sign also will be of good quality and also the Nakshatra of superior nature!

So many times people wonder that WHY I AM NOT GETTING PROMOTION when my teammate is getting – and he has not done a great job than I have done!

Doing a job is mechanical process – that is why I always say that when hiring a person – don’t just look at his skills because skills can be learned – what matters is the NATURE and QUALITY of the person that you are hiring for a certain job.

We all go shopping. But have we noticed which shopkeeper does well? Which shopkeeper attracts more customers? And moreover why a certain shop attracts more customers?

It has all to do with NATURE and QUALITY of the shopkeeper!

In Pune, if you go to the JM Road (Jungli Maharaj Road) – just opposite to Jungli Maharaj Mandir – there is a long line of shops and all of them are Mobile Shops! Almost all!

And yet only one shop has more customers than the rest of them. Incidentally, I had bought my first mobile from this shop and till date, I always have been buying from the same shop – because the owner is a very positive person – he smiles, he is proactive and moreover he CARES for each and every customer who visits his shop!

When you buy a product from a shop – you are directly relating to the owner of that shop! And this is a very deep subject.

When you buy a brand – you are directly relating to the energy of that brand.

But people don’t understand this. They just go to any shop and buy – buying and selling – is not robotic – it has a very deep relation a very deep relating to it!

Always visit a shop that attracts more customers – because it simply means that the shop has more positivism to it.

Always buy a brand that does well in the market. It simply means that the energy of that brand is too positive and by buying that brand you can also experience the positivity of that brand!

One has to be conscious of buying a brand product – and also from where to buy – because of the shopkeeper or the shop from where you buy matters above all!

In the old days – many of you may have heard that our old grandfather would always say that if you are buying a certain product then buy from a specific shopkeeper. But then we would wonder – Why only that shopkeeper when there are so many others who are selling the same product on the same street!

But old people have experiences that we don’t have! And so many times when they tell us something – it is for our benefit!

That is why BRAND matters. And I absolutely no hesitation to admit that – yes – one has to be BRAND CONSCIOUS – because BRANDS have a legacy and legacy have a certain QUALITY and NATURE to its existence!

QUALITY – SIGN. NATURE – NAKSHATRA.

Now Saturn in Libra Sign – Good. Saturn in Vishaka Nakshatra – Good.

But the questioner has a very different placement – SATURN in SCORPIO – Below Average. And Saturn in Vishaka of Scorpio Sign – Average.

So here the QUALITY And NATURE comes down to an average SATURN.

Here the Quality suffers, nature also is mediocre – because Saturn is in Jupiter’s Nakshatra. And again Saturn is in the 12th house so that again makes Saturn (Prarabhda KARMA) more challenging than otherwise!

But just through Saturn placement – you can get a feel of the KARMA – but how is it going to be executed and in what fashion – is only known through the other planetary placements.

The planets are not your friends. And I say it to all my followers and readers. Understand this – as long as the planets remain – the cycle of birth and rebirth continues!

A great Yogi from the Himalayas to whom I had met a few years ago had said: “ Now there is nobody in my birth chart but only me – the ‘self’”!

The planets are simply the significator of your PRARABHDHA KARMA. So as long as the planets remain active – the Karmic cycle of birth and rebirth – happiness and sadness continue…

When the great Yogi said – there are no planets in his birth chart – he meant that now he has risen above all his planets that are nothing but your Karma!

How does that happen?

Through meditation.

What is the way?

The way is inward.

What should I do?

Turn inwards.

I would encourage you all to focus less on questions such as what planets placed in which nakshatra and in which house AND focus more on how you can OVERCOME the PRARABHDA KARMA – by being more understanding and more meditative. Self-inquiry is the greatest quality that you can develop within yourself – the moment you start self -inquiring….you are on a new path – the path of real progress, path of real growth!

The more you turn inwards and self inquire the more you would be able to stand against all the odds and challenges of your life!

Remember – and I say to all my followers – there are all kind of people – people who ‘appear’ (Rahu) in many forms – it is your – totally your observation that can lead you to the truth – to the reality of the person.

Shallow people ‘SEE’ through the Mind. So whatever glitters, whatever looks beautiful upfront – attracts them instantly – they quickly fall for it!

And since the majority is shallow – we have many miserable victims/people around this world!

But I would love to see you all becoming more and more meditative – not falling for the ‘appearances’ but getting to the bottom of the truth! And this is possible when first you get to know yourself!

First, you have to know your own ‘introduction’ – the real one! Only then you can have the potential to know the real person – the real face of the person that you relate with!

So everything has to begin from YOU.

Many people come to me – they want to connect with me on LinkedIn. Just a few days ago – one such invitation to connect came. The man writes “ I love your philosophy of life and so I want to connect with you.”

Now I generally don’t accept – but I thought let’s give him a chance.

After a few days, he became uncomfortable – because TRUTH always makes you uncomfortable. He turned out to be a man of LOGIC and I am totally against logic. When logic ends – Love begins!

So now this man cannot digest my sharing – the logic in his blood won’t let him! And so then the disconnection and then the blocking and so I always insist that don’t rush to connect with me – because soon you will be shocked – soon you will start feeling uncomfortable with my sharings – because to relate to me – first you have to get out of your head and get into your heart – and not everybody can do it – this man was finding it very difficult – I let him go – bu disconnecting and blocking him forever!

A woman is far superior to a man. By nature, the woman has more love than a man. The man may say “I think I love you” to a woman. But a woman functions from the heart – she cannot say “I think I love you.” It has never been heard in the history of mankind that a woman saying something like this. A woman simply says “I love you.” There is absolutely no role of the head – no place for thinking – the heart needs no help from the head. The heart is enough to share the purest feeling – feeling of being in love!

Saturn has a role to play when it comes to love! A person with good placement of Saturn – generally is found to be a man or a woman of ethics. As long as she or he is in a relationship; they remain totally committed to their relationship. Generally, a good Venus brings along a long term relationship – and a good Saturn brings along a long term marriage!

Wherever there is legality involved – Saturn has a role to play. Wherever there is society involved – acceptance from the society is involved – Saturn has a role to play!

So relationships can go well as long as Venus is good. The 5th house lord is transiting well. And everything is hunky-dory. The moment Venus is shadowed by Rahu – and fifth house lord is trapped in some negative planetary influence – be it transit or Antara Dasha – the relationship starts getting cracks – Venus is like a bird – now it is here and now it is gone! And so relationships are generally short-lived. The moment a relationship transforms into a marriage – Saturn jumps in. Now the whole scenario has changed. Now the sense of ‘RESPONSIBILITY’ has come in – now the woman you had affair with – is no more just a girlfriend – now she is your wife – now you cannot just message her “I am leaving you” – if you do so – SATURN the legal master will bang on your head! Earlier it was just her – you had to answer only her – but now with marriage – there is the whole army of family that you would have to answer – so you see – Saturn makes things sticky. You cannot just get up and say “ I am leaving you” – the next moment you will be surrounded by society and the family! – Society – Saturn.

So when it comes to love relationship – Venus is your master. When it comes to sustaining your marriage – Saturn is your master!

Many times it happens and it happens almost across the world – that the boyfriend loves you but cannot marry you! Or the girlfriend loves you but cannot marry you.

This is not her problem – it is your problem. Your SATURN (Prarabhda Karma) is not supportive of something as durable and as sociable as MARRIAGE!

There was one girl. She was in deep love. And she had a beautiful relationship. They were almost mad in love. But when it came to the question of marriage – the same old story of fights between the two families – the opposition – the ‘war’ – but finally they got married!

But exactly after 1 year they also got divorced!

The girl had her natal Saturn with RAHU (Prarabhda Karma). And the boy had transiting SATURN with RAHU (KRIYAMAN KARMA)

So Saturn plays a very important role in marriage.

And Venus plays a very important role in love relationships.

Being romantic and having a strong sexual ‘drive’ are two different things.

Venus in watery signs makes you romantic. But Venus in Fire signs scales up your sexual drive!

Venus in Earth signs likes to have practical sexual experiences than to fantasize sexual desires. They simply want it – right now!

So Signs plays as much a role as the Nakshatra plays. They are inter dependable.

One beautiful thing that happens with Saturn – especially when it comes to signs is something that you all should remember. Whenever Saturn is in a sign that vibrates positively to its energy – SATURN does NOT delay or deny rather SATURN brings RESPONSIBILITY to the matter of the house in which it is placed!

This woman has Saturn in 5th house. And within one year of her marriage, she became the mother of a sweet boy!

But the story does not end here.

Exactly after six months – she also got divorced! So she became a single mom!

Single mom brings a lot of responsibility -, especially of the child! And where was her Saturn placed – 5th house! Saturn – Responsibility!

But the story does not end here.

The main point is yet to be revealed – and the point is that her Saturn was in Libra! A sign that is perfectly positive to Saturn – so then here Saturn has NOT DELAYED THE CHILDBIRTH – here Saturn has given a male child and on top of that – put more responsibility of the child on her shoulders by making her a single mom!

So Saturn is not your enemy – Saturn is a planet that can bring great awareness to you – enabling you to transform and evolve into a much-matured person! A stronger person!

So you see – SATURN does cause a certain pain – but this pain is not to hurt you but rather to awaken you to your real potential. Saturn wants you to know – that you can do more – you can rise above all.

It is only when a certain pain comes in your life – when you get a certain shake-up a certain shock that you wake up – then you start evolving then a certain level of consciousness comes to your life – so all the pain and all the difficulties of this PRARABHDA KARMA (NATAL SATURN) is simply to help you evolve into a much better human being – a much-evolved soul!

Why meditation?

Because when you are being hurt by your own PRARABDHA KARMA (natal Saturn) and also sometimes along with natal Saturn – the transiting Saturn (KRIYAMAAN KARMA) – then chances are that you may go into depression. And that is natural. You may also become self-destructive. To help you from falling into these miseries of life – the only way for you is to sit down and spend some quality time with yourself by being more and more meditative.

Worrying is of the MIND. So you have to first control the monkey mind. And the only way to control the MIND is through deep meditation – by focusing on only one thought – one name – the name of the Holy Lord.

Meditation happens only when there are no thoughts but only one thought – one name – the name of the Holy Lord that you concentrate on – then the mind will slowly come in your control.

When you are troubled and feel lost – just close the door of your room – sit down, close your eyes and meditate. Use an incense stick and lit a ‘diya’ to add more positivity to your environment!

This human life will continue to bring many good and bad experiences to you – but as your meditation will become more and better – the outward circumstances will no more impact your inward peace!

And so to all – I insist that you spend a minimum 20 minutes in deep meditation – every morning before 7 AM.

Many of you are writing emails to me about getting more deeper into meditation and some tips to expedite your meditative process – and so here is the answer – listen to some deep meditative music on youtube to start with your meditation. There is wonderful meditation music available for free on youtube – use it to your benefit – at least for the beginners, it is a good launching pad!

The core essence of meditation is to stop all your thoughts and focus on your breathing as you deeply concentrate on your Lord’s holy name.

Along with meditation – comes your act of random kindness! You have to balance your life – by being meditative and also by being helpful.

BALANCE. That’s what SATURN LIKES. And that’s why SATURN is most comfortable and exalted in a SIGN OF BALANCE – Libra.

Many men and women get confused when it comes to spiritualism. They think they have to leave everything – sexual life, good food, good car, children and everything and just focus on spiritual practice. THAT IS TOTALLY WRONG.

If you are married – enjoy your sexual life – do not make your wife or husband suffer because you have suddenly turned up to spiritualism! Make love to your wife or husband. Play with your children. Do your job with utmost efficiency and dedication. And while you do all of these – also spend a minimum 20 minutes in deep meditation — prayers. If possible stretch the time as per your convenience! That is called BALANCE – and that is how by balancing your life – you keep moving a step ahead in your spiritual journey – and NOT by renunciation and escaping to the Himalayas!

A beautiful sharing of the divine master – His Holiness Mahavatar Babaji!

Saturn simply wants you to go through your karmic balance and dues – by being courageous and truthful. Once a great Yogi had said that just the way a calf recognizes its mother from a thousand cows – similarly your KARMA comes all the way following you – no matter where you are – no matter what you do!

So focus on controlling your mind. STILL- the monkey mind – to a mind that is still the whole universe is available!

A mind that is fast is SICK. A Mind that is slow is SOUND. A mind that is still is DIVINE – says the divine master Meher Baba!

Do not worry about the future – do not bother about the past – because life is neither in the past nor in the future – LIFE IS NOW – in the PRESENT moment – if you are able to BE HERE NOW – you are able to live your life.

Meditation happens only when you are able to BE HERE NOW! When you are able to bring your MIND in the Present moment – and to do so – breath in, breath out and simply make an effort to BE HERE NOW.

NOW is the moment. Life is flowing in this NOW moment. Your goal should be to BE HERE NOW – and that’s the real beginning…….of your spiritual journey.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

This is a good question. Saturn has to do more with what is the NATURE of the NAKSHATRA.

For that first, you have to find out the nature of each nakshatra. Whether it is destructive or constructive? Whether the nakshatra belongs to a sign that is suitable or unsuitable to Saturn’s nature. For example, Bharani belongs to Venus. But Saturn is not comfortable in Bharani because finally, it belongs to Aries which goes against the Saturnian energy. Maybe that is why it is said that Saturn is at its lowest point or debilitated in Aries.

So many things are there. But who wants to listen?

Interestingly not a single zodiac sign of Venus has A Nakshatra ruled by Venus! And yet Saturn exalts in a Venusian sign – Libra!

Nobody is willing to look beyond.

People are just doing 1 plus 1 equals to 2. But astrology is beyond such calculations. When calculations end, the real astrology begins!

And so to all my followers- I encourage you all to go beyond all the calculations- the youtube video and the websites through which you are collecting all information…..And instead, jump within and turn inwards. The real answers are within you…a book can take you to the right direction- but finally, it is you – who have to WALK THE PATH by being more and more meditative!

Saturn exalts in the nakshatra of Rahu – Swati.

And the same Saturn is debilitated in the nakshatra of Ketu – Aswini.

Now see how beautiful is this. In a way, Saturn shows its likes and dislikes in the most striking manner.

To all my followers- especially those who have been following me closely on this forum – are well aware of what is Ketu. Ketu is beyond. Ketu is the source of detachment. And Saturn is the exact opposite- Saturn is material by nature. Ketu may lead you to Sanyas – renunciation. And Saturn will pull you towards duties and responsibilities. Ketu knows no boundaries- Saturn typically operates within boundaries.

Ketu can bring tremendous courage for you to JUMP into the unknown. To take risks. That is why on a low level – Ketu is seen positive for stock trading. And on a high level – for an evolved soul the same Ketu can make him a LIFE Trader – someone who is willing to trade his whole life for the LOVE and GRACE of God!

And that’s being Buddha. Without Ketu – there is no coming to the ultimate truth – God-Consciousness! And therefore all the Gurus have always revered the energy of Sri Ketu!

Saturn is good and necessary for a man or woman who wants to have a family. A job. A well-settled life and so on. Someone who wants to do something material- be it engineering, politics, servitude, governance. And to carry on with a good material life you need to have a certain depth and a certain conviction to your actions.

And therefore you see Saturn nakshatra falling exactly into deeper zodiac signs – something that is deep…..oceans are deep. And so you have Saturn’s nakshatra in all the three watery zodiac signs – CANCER (Pushya). SCORPIO (Anuradha). PISCES (Uttarabhadrapad).

So see how all these can be interesting.

Saturn when is in these 3 nakshatras and in Swati- it is in it’s the best position.

But there is more to it. The support of these sign lords is also necessary. So there are many more things….

Yesterday one chart was cast. Saturn was in Moola Nakshatra. Now let his be very clear that there are going to be two aspects to this observation-

1. Nature of the nakshatra
2. Saturn’s compatibility with its ruler

As we have seen Saturn is a contrast to Ketu’s energy- Saturn in all the 3 nakshatras of Ketu leads to denial of the results of the house that it rules in the birth chart.

Ashwini. Magha.Moola. These are like the most uncomfortable nakshatra- for Saturn.

And if Ketu is stronger than Rahu in the birth chart than it can get more messy.

This woman – Virgo Ascendant and her fifth house Lord Saturn was on Ketu Moola Nakshatra in the 4th house. She never had a child.

Two things – Moola is destructive by nature. And Fifth house Lord going in 4th house – nullification of happiness from child.

Had this Saturn been in the 4th but in any other nakshatra other than that of Ketu – this woman would have become a mother – transforming her into an altogether new woman….

“The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new.” – Osho

The 5th lord in 4th house never denies motherhood- all it does is that it scales down the happiness that the mother was to receive from her children! So this woman was not a complete loss – but what triggered her inability to experience motherhood was her SATURN in Moola (Ketu)!

A young boy lost his father when he was 14. Ninth house lord in Moola Nakshatra. Plus Libra Sun with Uranus. So the question of getting less affection from father does not arise – the father itself goes away – through the process of ‘death’ – Moola Ketu. And Ketu has the suddenness to it – so the young boy lost his father – through a sudden death – Massive heart attack.

So what I am trying to put forth – and help you all to understand is that astrology is NOT one dimensional- it is multidimensional. The examples I have shared – they also have many more factors – while I have just shared a few factors…

This house Lord in that and this planet in this house- all of these is good to watch on youtube as an entertainment. In the ancient days, Astrology was a holy prayer – a holy journey within. But now – I see all of it turning towards entertainment. And that is understandable- with the people getting more shallower – what else can more be expected!

But I can say that those who are following me – must not be shallow. There must be something special within you – otherwise understanding my answer is not everybody’s potential. The shallow ones either condemn me or put all their energy together to collapse my answer. I must say – what a dedication to bringing someone down – and how beautiful it would have been if the same energy would have been diverted towards self inquire- towards self-growth!

There is more coming to this answer. But for today, enough.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

In Maharashtra – the land of the Great Marathas – there is a famous saying and it is, in reality, the greatest irony. The saying goes like this “ We want Shivaji – but not in our house – rather in the neighbor’s house.”

Chatrapatti Shivaji Maharaj – one of the greatest warriors and wise ruler – the world had ever known! Fighting against the mighty Mughals – Shivaji established Swarajya- (self-rule) where every religion was respected, where everybody had the freedom of expression. He dedicated his whole life for the betterment of the people of his region which is now “Maharashtra” – and yet, the people of the state have coined this famous saying – “That Shivaji is Great – but it is better to have him in the neighbor’s house but not in ours!”

RISK. Nobody wants RISK. DANGER. Nobody wants to face DANGER. Unsafe. Nobody wants to live a life that is always on the edge of the sword!

And the Great King Chatrapatti Shivaji Maharaj’s life was full of RISKS, DANGERS. ADVENTURES. VALOR. FIGHTS. Always on the edge of the sword! And that is how this saying was originated – its essence is that ‘we all love Shivaji, we respect him, he is our God – but we would want him to be born in the neighbor’s house but not ours!’

Such is the mind of the common man. Small mind. Small heart. Shallow life. Shallow understandings! HE is not willing to have someone as great as Shivaji in his house – a rabbit cannot host the LION – to host a LION – you got to have the heart of a LION – the vision, the daring, the understanding of a LION! And so the commoners cannot be blamed – with shallow people what else can you expect?

Common men love and respect Mahatma Gandhi, Netaji Bose, Bhagat Singh – but just ask them – would you like to have a son like one of these great men?

And very few would step ahead! Because the common is perfectly aware that to have someone as great as these men – he has to – let them go – he cannot bond them in marriages, in that typical four walls of ‘family life’ – he has to let them go – he got to have the daring to sacrifice his son or daughter for the NATION – for the GREATER INTEREST of the people! And so not everybody is willing to take this risk – they want a ‘normal’ mediocre life for his son or daughter – where there is not much risk, not much of sacrifice – you see – it pains to read this – right? Truth is hard – but the truth is the truth – you may ignore it – but the truth remains! The masses – the commoners are too much afraid of all that ‘risks’ their comfort zone – it is only one in millions – who dares to JUMP – he or she JUMPS first and then thinks later!

But common man thinks a lot. A lot of energy is spent on thinking, planning – when in reality you don’t know what is going to happen the next moment!

Somebody as courageous, as innovative as Steve Jobs (Apple Founder) could ‘relate’ with Neem Karoli Baba – long back when he was planning to form a company which is now APPLE – he had visited in the early 70s to meet Neem Karoli Baba! It is said that Baba’s favorite fruit was Apple and maybe that is what inspired Steve to have his company’s name and logo as Apple!

So such unique men can understand. They can relate to the depth of the matter. Steve Jobs had to suffer a lot – the company he formed – later forced him to resign – until he was called back in his later years of life! And it was his return that enabled Apple to come up with the revolutionary idea of i-phone! Today i-phone has become the cherry on the cake – the most glamorous phone.

One has to understand men like Steve Jobs – one has to understand the innovative, the risk-taking – the dynamic attitude of such great men.

But people are just happy with i-phones! Shallow life, Show-off life – if i-phone is great – then how great must be the man who introduced such a masterpiece to the world. But people don’t care for the depth – they are just happy to have an i-phone!

Everybody wants a safe life, no risk, no danger, just to warm up in cozy comfort zones. People are just happy to know about the comfort zones (houses) of the horoscope. 8th house makes them uncomfortable. 12th house matters make them uncomfortable. The commoners fear the 8th, the 12th. They cannot understand, they cannot ‘relate’! You can ‘relate’ with a certain person – only if his and your understanding is on the same level – only then the understanding is possible, only then the ‘resonance’ is possible – then there is a music to it – then there is a joy to it! But shallow people are more. So understanding rarely happens. And so disputes are more than harmony. Hate is more than love. Criticism is more than appreciation!

The commoners are not willing to dive in the unknown – for that courage is required and not many people are courageous. Not many people are risk-takers!

The 12th house is the way towards the unknown, the unseen, the beyond!

AND when Saturn sits in 12th – he brings along his censorship. Now all that is adventurous, dynamic, thrilling is restricted. Now the beautiful treasures of the 12th house are locked. The person is quick to become frustrated over small matters, small failures. You see – the very source of the beyond is locked – as if the ‘aliens’ cannot connect with the native or in simple words – the ancestors – the angels cannot connect or relate with the native. The forefathers want to share the ‘message’ with the native but they cannot – the doors are locked! Such a native lacks ‘ideas’ – because how the ideas will come? The doors of the 12th are locked – ideas come only from the cosmic terrestrial and you can receive those ‘ideas’ only if your ‘antenna’ is in the position to receive. Here the ‘antenna’ is blocked. The person feels suffocated. He or she is moving around, with a smiling face – but inside – they feel suffocated. And because there is no ‘opening’ towards the beyond – ideas lack and lack of ideas leads to lack of fortunes! And so 12 Saturn also stress out the finances – the bank savings. Health issues also crop up – because when cosmic suffocation exists – the health cannot blossom. Connections with all that is ‘foreign’ – is also blocked or restricted. Generally, such a man travels within the country but not outside the country or his place of origin.

Such a placement is a signal from Saturn – that in past life you were allowed to connect with the cosmic world, with the foreign world – but ‘chap’ you messed up with the liberties showered upon you – so now this life – I am going to lock you up on this front – be aware! ‘Lock you up’ – people at the base level – souls that are not much evolved – if other aspects are of negative nature than this 12 Saturn often leads to – imprisonment!

But why? why so? It is simple. 12 Saturn is aspecting the 2nd house of VALUES, ETHICS, PRINCIPLES. All of these virtues are scaled down by Saturn 12. And so the native has no further support of Lord Jupiter – then – man, he or she is in trouble. Imprisonment at some stage of life is not ruled out!

To all my readers, followers and friends – remember how Saturn’s intensity of DRISHTI works:

SATURN 3rd Drishti – 100%

Saturn 7th Drishti – 75%

Saturn 10th Drishti – 50%

When you are standing at the main door of your house – who falls in a much closer view – much effectively – the house opposite to you or the house just next to you? Obviously – next to you-you can very well see or hear what is happening in the house next to you than in the house that is opposite to you.

Similarly SATURN aspects more intensely on the house next to it – in this case the Ascendant! That is why a woman or man with Saturn in Ascendant is in a far better position than a person with SATURN in 12th!

Saturn 12 – casts its Drishti on Ascendant (health, personality), Finance, Service/Job/Health & Fortune – basically casting his censorship.

Saturn 1 – casts its Drishti on Second (Bank Balance/finance) – Property/House, Marriage (Delays in marriage but not denial), and CAREER (delays in career matters/success matters related to his or her profession)

So overall – Saturn 12 and Saturn 1 are twins. More or less – the effects are similar except that SATURN 1 – does not face the blockage of connecting with the foreign world or the cosmic/supernatural world – that is one major difference and a rewarding one for Saturn 1 men and women!

FEAR. When 12th house is blocked by Saturn – the FEAR FACTOR is more than the FAITH FACTOR. Yesterday – a man received a call from the Police. He did not pick up the call. He just became worried – fearful – why the Police gave him a call? His transiting Saturn 12 would not let him live in peace – FEAR is constantly on his mind! Then his good friend inquired – by calling back on the same number – on the other end – and the Policeman said: “It was a wrong number – by mistake, we called on your number, sorry for calling.”

So this FEAR of the Police (12th house) FEAR of unknown trouble, unexpected problems (12th house) FEAR of the unseen, the supernatural, the ghosts, the black magic – all of this – whatever is ‘smoky’ instantly becomes a reason of FEAR!

And the truth of life is that LIFE begins where FEAR ends!

FAITH in GOD – in the divine Master – has to come out of LOVE and not FEAR!

But temples are packed with devotees – with pilgrimages who are coming at the feet of the LORD – not by Love – but because of FEAR!

You are fasting on every Mondays. And one Monday you missed – you just missed by chance – now-now what? Immediately you are haunted by FEAR. Now what Lord Shiva will say – now what Lord Shiva will do – now what will happen!!! You see – the majority of those who say that I believe in God or I visit temples or I perform certain poojas or rituals are doing it out of FEAR. TRUTH is very hard. Many of you may simply hate me – but that is fine, I don’t care, because I am not here to get upvotes, I am here simply to share the truth.

FEAR dominates our life. And I am encouraging all my followers and my readers to replace this FEAR with LOVE. When you fast out of love – your fasting is fructifying. When you are visiting Lord Ganesha, Shiva or any GOD – out of LOVE – then your PRAYERS are heard, your PRAYERS are answered. But these so-called PRIESTS and PUNDITS have made GOD – a whole business of FEAR – FEAR AND FEAR AND MORE FEAR!

The day you are visiting the Church, the Temple, the Mosque – out of LOVE FOR THE LORD and not out of FEAR – you have ‘arrived’ – your prayers are going to be answered!

Courage is needed. And courage comes only when there is something far more important than fear.

Saturn 12 blocks this courage. Brings ignorance or rather signify ignorance. And ignorance brings fear. And Fear makes you miserable, vulnerable.

Those people who continue to live in their comfort zones have no real adventure – the real thrill in their life. Such a person lives without any adventure lives without fear but also without happiness. He lives a convenient life, comfortable, cozy, but dull, stupid, meaningless, with no joy, no song, no dance; nothing ever happens into his being, he simply vegetates. From birth to death he simply goes on dying every day, each moment, slowly. Of course, his death is so slow that he cannot feel it. It is a kind of slow suicide.

People have chosen this kind of slow suicide just because they want to avoid all fear. This is avoiding life itself, and if you avoid life you are avoiding God.

Somebody asked Mark Twain once, “What do you think are the three best things in life?”

Humorously, sarcastically, he said, “The first best thing is never to be born. The second best thing is to die immediately after birth. And the third best thing is to die as soon as possible.”

But his humor has a tremendous truth in it. That’s your logic too, that’s the logic of the average mind, that’s the logic of mind as such.

Mind is very much afraid of the unknown because the mind feels capable when you are functioning within the boundaries of the known. Mind means knowledge. You are acquainted with it. You know all the pros and cons; you know what to do, what not to do. You have passed through the same route so many times that now you can pass with closed eyes without any fear of stumbling into anything or falling or going astray. You can function like a robot. Mind consists only of the known. The moment you start inviting the unknown in, the mind freaks. The mind says, “No, this dangerous. I am not willing.”

And that is exactly what a Saturn 12 person says “No, this dangerous. I am not willing.”

It is the state of closed mind! See – how beautiful astrology is! Saturn 12 is indeed a closed mind. And God comes, happiness comes, joy comes – only to a mind that is OPEN – only to a mind that is willing to go beyond – to the unseen – to the unknown!

A wise man is a meditative man. And a meditative man is always moving beyond the mind. He is perfectly aware that MIND is a monkey, that MIND is an illusion – and so his effort is always to overcome the MIND.

The intellectuals are following their MIND. The intelligent are following their HEART! Understand the difference, savor the difference.

The mind goes on thinking about truth, and the truth goes on waiting to be realized, but the meeting never happens. The meeting is possible only if the mind stops functioning because mind means the past, mind means the future. The mind is never here now. Whenever you start thinking, you are going astray. If you stop thinking, suddenly you are at home. You had never gone from there; the whole wandering is like a dream. Otherwise, you have lived in God, you have lived as gods — that’s the only way to be. But you don’t realize it, because you go on thinking about it.

And the sole purpose of this human life – is to move from the MIND towards the HEART – and that’s precisely what meditation is!

But a man who has Saturn 12 finds it difficult – because his ‘beyond’ (12th) is now restricted – the signals of the cosmos cannot be received – the satellite is impotent to receive the signals – the person remains ‘blocked’ – and the irony is that the person never realizes this ‘blockage’ – he or she is busy in their ‘limited’ version of life!

With Saturn 12 – you become a limited version. With Jupiter 12 – you become an unlimited version! But what exactly is this fuss about limited and unlimited – and the answer you will find in this insightful words of Bhagwan Ramana Maharshi:-

Saturn 12 – a great hurdle between the unconscious and the conscious mind. Connecting the unconscious with the conscious becomes difficult – moreover 99% with this placement – never even realize that how much of ignorance has taken over – they simply continue to exist and operate in the utter darkness of ignorance.

In Astrology – there is nothing bad and good as such. It is simply a representation of your Karmic accumulation. The past actions performed out of ignorance can always be corrected. An astrologer is basically to bring you to the stage of awareness – once you are aware, once you become conscious – on your own – you start taking the right actions – the corrective actions and then there is a song to it, music – a dance! Then life is no more a problem but a garden of bliss. Remember – there is nothing called BAD. There is nothing called SIN.

There is always a solution to your problem. Saturn 12 also has a solution. In the past life/lives – God had been too kind with you – but you misused – took advantage of HIS grace – did many ‘wrong’ things, used your power to connect with the higher energies for selfish reasons – so basically your consciousness continued to take a backseat – you continued to become more and more ignorant – more ignorance gave birth to more selfishness and ultimately you have reached to this Saturn 12 stage – where God has finally put a latch on your spiritual freedom – the understanding of spiritual realms.

So now what is the solution? The doors to the beyond are locked. What is the solution? Do you remember your childhood days? When you would act too badly out of ignorance (childhood ignorance) – your father or mother would scold you and ask you to first behave properly – become a good boy or good girl and then the showerings of grace and love will be unlocked!

Similarly, you have to first address the state of your Jupiter – your consciousness – your righteousness – your awareness! And so the solution in astrology terms is simple – Start fasting on Thursdays – Visit Lord Krishna or Lord Vishnu temple – Donate food – all that is sweet and nutritious by nature. Meditate. Wear a yellow topaz – there is no harm in wearing yellow topaz – it is the safest gemstone – one could ever think of and also beautiful.

Just focus on raising your consciousness – with more consciousness – your Jupiter will improve – and if not in this life – at least for the coming lives – your effort in raising your awareness (Jupiter) will help you unlock the gates of the 12th house and GRACE will come rushing towards you – the beyond, the unseen, the unknown – will soon come to hold your hand and walk you through the many seen/unseen difficulties of life!

12th is the climax. 12th is the liberation. In 12th lives the unseen, the unknown – the angels. You will come to the 12th – the climax, the point of liberation (moksha) – the ultimate realization – only when you have lost everything – only when you have dropped all that had been a hurdle between you and the Master – your lord! And so to the material world – 12th is the house of loss – but to the spiritual world it is the most beautiful house of all houses – for “the cup is useful only when it is ‘empty’”! Then the divine can come, then the grace can be received. The 12th is the MOUNT KAILASH – yes it is the end. New beginnings are often disguised as painful endings! 12th is the beginning of the ASTRAL Journey – it is the ABODE of LORD SHIVA!

In ancient Rome, Diogenes was a great spiritual master. And he would roam naked and yet Alexander the Great would come to seek his blessings! And he would carry a small wooden bowl in his hand. That was the only possession he had – just to help him drink some water. Then one day – as he roaming around the town – he saw a dog drinking water from the nearby river. And said to himself – “If a dog needs nothing to drink water – then why should I hold on to this wooden bowl?”

AND then everything was dropped. NOTHING was left – Diogenes laughed at himself – only the WISE can laugh at himself!

In this ‘Nothingness’ – Diogenes rejoiced. He laughed, and he continued with his spiritual journey – those who came to him – were blessed with many wonderful experiences – they were totally transformed into something that they never had imagined of!

“NOTHINGNESS” – the 12th house is this nothingness! Blessed is the man whose 12th house is pure and positive!

Nothingness is the basis of everything.

12th is the beauty. The real gold is found in the 12th – the gold that the world has been chasing all their life is not to be found in any other house than the house of 12th – rest all is fake gold, the real gold is only to be experienced in the ABODE OF MOUNT KAILASH – the ABODE of the 12th!

Jai Bhole! Shiv Bhole! Har Bhole! Let us rejoice in the Abode of the 12th – the Abode of Lord Shiva. Let us be more and more meditative. Let us focus on doing good, the greater the quality of our KARMA – the greater is the quality of our meditation. Remember always – it is all ‘connected’!
