Aries 2025: Action and Transformation

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

Many people assume that Aries natives are insensitive, indifferent, and unmoved by emotions and feelings. But I completely disagree! In fact, Aries individuals are among the most sensitive and deeply emotional beings. The difference is that they don’t just dwell on their emotions or pen down poetic lines about them; they act. Aries natives are the kind of people who step up to help those in need, turning feelings into meaningful action. And this is precisely why I admire Aries—they don’t just talk about making a difference; they do it. At the end of the day, action speaks louder than words.

The year 2025 is truly a year of action, ruled by Mars—the planet of energy, drive, and determination. Aries, being ruled by Mars as well, will naturally align with this fiery energy. You’ll find yourself filled with positivity, renewed vigor, and the confidence to implement your ideas and strategies, leading you toward grand success in 2025.

The supportive grace of Shri Guru Jupiter will continue to bless you until May 2025, so until then, you won’t have much to worry about. However, post-May 2025, challenges will emerge as Saturn transits your 12th house and Rahu enters your 11th house—creating a “give and take” scenario.

Rahu in the 11th house: Expect an increase in income, financial gains, and new social connections that may bring opportunities your way.
Saturn in the 12th house: On the flip side, Saturn might slow you down, causing moments of low energy, mental burdens, delays in foreign travels, and challenges connected to your feet or limitations on expenditures.

Jupiter’s movement into Gemini after June 2025 is an excellent phase for your professional life. Your scope of work will expand, new projects will kick off, and you will find yourself busier than ever at your workplace. Productivity and recognition will keep you motivated.

Ketu’s transit in Leo might create distance between you and your children, largely due to your demanding schedule. Be mindful about investments—particularly in the stock market—as impulsive decisions could lead to losses. It’s best to invest carefully after seeking expert advice.

When it comes to relationships, 2025 is a passionate year. You may experience intense connections but also face challenges in maintaining harmony. If not handled wisely, these struggles could result in misunderstandings or even breakups by the year’s end.

For students, 2025 presents a challenging phase. Academic success will demand more dedication and effort. If you are currently studying five hours a day, you will need to put in extra hours to maintain consistent grades and rankings.

In short, 2025 is a mixed bag for Aries natives. The four major planetary players—Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu—are setting the tone for the year:

Jupiter and Rahu will bring blessings, financial growth, and professional opportunities.
Saturn and Ketu, on the other hand, may introduce hurdles, delays, and emotional challenges.

Thus, expect 50-50 results for the year 2025—balancing triumphs with tests. Use Jupiter’s grace and Rahu’s momentum to your advantage while navigating the challenges brought by Saturn and Ketu with patience and focus. Remember, Aries, when you channel your energy into the right direction, no challenge can hold you back. The year of action is here—make it count!

Remedies to Sail Smoothly Through 2025

To all my beloved followers with Moon in Aries, here are the essential remedies to help you overcome challenges and embrace the opportunities that 2025 brings.

1. Fasting on Tuesdays (Until March 1st, 2025):

Observe a fast on Tuesdays to honor Lord Mars (Mangal).
During the fast, consume only fruits, milk, or water—keep it simple and sattvic.
Break your fast the following morning (Wednesday) with light, wholesome food. This practice will cleanse your mind and body, filling you with positive energy.

2. Worship Lord Hanuman on Saturdays:

Dedicate your Saturdays to Lord Hanuman, the ultimate protector and remover of obstacles.
Recite the Hanuman Chalisa with devotion, and chant the powerful Ram mantra:
“Shri Ram Jai Ram Jai Jai Ram.”
This sacred mantra brings peace and healing, aligning your energy with Lord Rama’s divine blessings.

3. Chant the Krishna Mantra Daily:
For those who are evolving souls with good hearts, start your mornings with the beautiful Krishna Mantra:
“Om Krishnaya Vasudevaya Haraye Paramatmane |
Pranatah Klesha Nashaya Govindaya Namo Namah ||”

Chant this mantra 108 times after your morning bath using a sphatik (crystal) japamala.
This divine mantra is a prayer of deep surrender to Lord Krishna, the supreme protector and remover of sorrows.
By chanting this with love and faith, you will receive immense blessings, and the divine grace of Krishna will help you overcome all pain, suffering, and obstacles in 2025.

4. Wear a Coral Gemstone for Mars:

As 2025 is ruled by Mars, and you too are under Mars’s influence, it is essential to strengthen its positive energy.
Wear a 10-carat Italian Coral gemstone crafted in a gold or silver locket around your neck.
Coral enhances courage, vitality, and strength, ensuring you stay focused and fearless throughout the year.

A Special Message for Aries Natives

The year 2025 belongs to Mars, the warrior planet—and so do you! If you follow these remedies with devotion and sincerity, you will sail smoothly through all challenges and emerge stronger than ever.

To all my Aries followers, remember this:
“A warrior may not win every battle, but a warrior never stops fighting.”
You are born to fight, to conquer, and to rise above challenges. Trust the remedies, trust yourself, and trust the divine.

Whenever you feel low, always remember that I am with you. Reach out to me, and I will guide you with all my heart.

Stay strong, keep fighting, and have faith—2025 will reward your courage and persistence.

Love and blessings to all my Aries warriors.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Pisces 2025: Strong Comeback Year

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

2024 was terrible for many natives born with the Moon in Pisces. But 2025 is going to be a good comeback for you. The dark clouds of Rahu are going to move away from your Moon sign, bringing major relief to your life. From June 2025, Pisces natives will start feeling much relief from stress. If you have been going through mental issues such as negative thinking, frustration, or depression, then very soon you will come out of it, and I envision you with a big smile on your face. My heart goes out to all my followers belonging to the Pisces sign because I understand the pain and suffering you have endured throughout 2024.

But enough is enough—as they say, after every storm, there is a rainbow. You, too, are going to see the rainbow soon in your life. The transit of Rahu into Aquarius may lead to increased spending, but that is far better than the mental suffering caused when Rahu is with your natal Moon! This movement of Rahu into Aquarius will also make you more passionate and intense in your spiritual practices.

Ketu’s transit into Leo can destroy the dangerous plans of your enemies, and you will emerge victorious in the fight for justice. If you have been suffering due to black magic attacks, hold on until June 2025, because after June 2025, your enemies will start suffering. At that point, you can smile and say to your enemy, “Ali re Ali atta tuji pali ali,” meaning, “Now your bad time has arrived,” and you can have the last smile, virtually slapping your secret enemies hard on their faces.

The transit of Saturn in Pisces is a matter of concern, but for evolving souls, this is the peak of maturity that Saturn will bring. As Saturn crosses over your mind, it will make you more mature and prompt deeper reflection on the matters of your life, such as home, mother, and mental well-being. This Saturn transit will shape your mindset for the remaining course of your life. Saturn’s transit over your natal Moon encourages you to focus on self-discipline, health, and emotional stability. You are bound to become more disciplined during this time.

Jupiter’s transit into Gemini is excellent for purchasing a new property or expanding the scope of your current residence. It also indicates that you will receive support from your mother and family members. Overall, I see the year 2025 as much brighter and more positive for my fellow Pisces natives. When studying planetary transits, Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu play a significant role in setting the script for 2025. Considering that the Rahu-Ketu axis and Jupiter’s transit turn positive for you from June 2025, I am giving you a hug and assuring you that “You are going to be perfectly fine in the year 2025.”

As Sai Baba says, “Shraddha Aur Saburi,” meaning if you remain faithful and stay patient, you can achieve success in life. I would say this is the mantra for navigating 2025: Shraddha Aur Saburi—Faith and Patience.

While major transits are turning positive for you, I would still insist that it is necessary to check whether the Mahadasha period in your personal horoscope is in your favor. Even if the transits turn positive, if the Mahadasha is not favorable, you may remain stuck. Therefore, it is essential to analyze your personal horoscope as well!

The best remedy for you is to wear a blue sapphire gemstone of at least 3 carats on your right-hand middle finger, start fasting on Saturdays, and chant “Aum Ram Krishna Hari” 108 times every morning and night before going to bed. This is a very soothing and effective mantra to overcome mental miseries and attain success in work or business. Reciting the Hanuman Chalisa every day, breaking a coconut before Lord Hanuman, offering Ladoos to Lord Hanuman every Saturday, taking seven rounds around a Peepal tree on Saturdays, and lighting a lamp filled with cow’s ghee will help you overcome the challenges that Saturn’s transit may bring to your life.

For older natives, you may slow down, but there is no need to worry. Dedicate the year 2025 to worshipping Lord Hanuman. If you are above the age of 40, I strongly recommend arranging a reading of **Sundar Kand** at home. Sundar Kand is a popular devotional practice among Hindus, as it is believed to bring peace, prosperity, and remove obstacles from life. Sundar Kand, a chapter from the Indian epic *Ramayana*, focuses on the heroic exploits of Lord Hanuman as he travels to Lanka to deliver Lord Rama’s message to Sita Devi and prepares for the eventual battle with Ravana.

By reading Sundar Kand or arranging a reading of it at your residence, you can attain mental peace, as this miraculous scripture removes fears and uplifts the soul. For all my close followers, whether Hindu or non-Hindu, this is my suggestion: At least once a year, arrange for the reading of Sundar Kand at your home, invite your well-wishers, and be purified by the nectar of this marvelous chapter—Sundar Kand.

On this beautiful note, remembering the brave Lord Hanuman and prostrating before HIM, I offer my prayers and seek his divine blessings for all my good-hearted Pisces followers. The message for you is straightforward and simple: You are coming out of Rahu’s clutch, and post-June 2025, you are going to see a very positive difference in your life. When that happens, you will smile and remember me. Don’t forget to send me your smiling photo because when you smile, you look beautiful!

Love to all my beautiful Pisces fellows—stay strong and always remember: NOTHING LASTS FOREVER. You may be going through a difficult phase, but know this: “This too shall pass.”

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Childlessness in Astrology: Choice or Fate?

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

There are many extraordinary men and women who, either by choice or through life’s circumstances, find themselves without children. Some may have given up custody in a divorce settlement, while others simply chose a different path. In both cases, the result is the same—a life without the responsibilities of parenthood.

But what do the stars say about this? Which planetary combinations and placements signify a life where having a child is not part of the journey, either by design or by fate?

Let me share a moment from my life. I don’t have children, and the other day, while strolling through a beautiful garden, I casually mentioned to my friend Mohan, “I think I can buy a cycle for around 2000 rupees.” Mohan burst into laughter. When I asked why, he said, “A good quality cycle costs over 8000 rupees now!”

That’s when I realized—those of us without children may not always be in touch with the realities of parenting, like the cost of school bags, cycles, or daily childcare expenses. And that’s perfectly fine because, for some of us, life’s path is different. It’s about transformation, spiritual evolution, and exploring deeper truths rather than building a family in the conventional sense.

Now lets explore the Astrological Blueprint of a Childless Life.

When the 8th house or its lord is strong or over-activated, it pulls the individual’s energy toward self-discovery, intense relationships, or guiding others through transformation. This emphasis often makes the routine aspects of family life feel unappealing.

A dominant 8th house signifies karmic patterns and detachment from traditional roles, including parenting.
Example: Spiritual leaders like Osho, with multiple planets in the 8th house, were born to transform collective consciousness, not to raise children.

The Moon, when placed in the 8th house, amplifies detachment from societal norms, including marriage and parenting. Such individuals often seek meaning in spiritual or solitary pursuits rather than familial responsibilities.

A strong 8th house suggests karmic influences that steer the individual away from traditional family structures, focusing instead on personal evolution or higher purposes.

Lets explore some other Astrological Combinations Indicating No Children.

Sanyasa Yoga: Renunciation of Worldly Duties

When multiple malefics (e.g., Saturn, Rahu, Ketu) influence the 8th or 12th house, they create a Sanyasa Yoga. This can lead to disinterest in worldly responsibilities, including parenting.

Example: Moon-Ketu in the 12th house often signifies detachment from family life.

Jupiter’s Affliction

Jupiter with Saturn: Creates blocks or delays in progeny.
Jupiter with Rahu/Ketu: May signify no child or unhappiness from children.
Retrograde Jupiter: Can reduce focus on or interest in children.

Rahu and Ketu in the 5th House

Rahu in the 5th house amplifies unconventional desires, often leading to disinterest in traditional family roles.
Ketu in the 5th house brings detachment or karmic completion, indicating a lack of inclination toward progeny.

Venus-Mars Combinations

Venus and Mars in the 12th house: Focus on personal fulfillment and pleasure over familial responsibilities.
Under Saturn’s influence, Venus and Mars may signify detachment from relationships or the idea of parenting.

Saturn in the 5th House

Delays or Denial: Saturn governs discipline and detachment, often delaying or denying children.
Single Parenting: In some cases, Saturn’s placement leads to situations like single parenthood.

When you don’t have a child by choice or destiny then you must know that there is a Higher Purpose Beyond Parenthood.

For individuals without children, the absence is not a lack but a sign of a higher calling. It indicates that life intends for you to channel your energy into something transformative, significant, and impactful. Parenthood divides your energy and attaches you to worldly responsibilities, while a strong 8th house frees you for spiritual evolution.

A Million-Dollar Question

Now, for those without children, a pressing thought often arises: “Who will inherit my legacy?”

This question leads to fascinating astrological insights about successors for childless individuals. For instance:

The 2nd house governs wealth and possessions passed on to successors.
The 9th house signifies spiritual or moral inheritance.
Stay tuned for my upcoming podcast, where I’ll dive deeper into the planets and houses that reveal your successors when you have no biological child.

Recently, I watched a heartwarming Netflix movie starring Tom Hanks. The name of the movie was “A Man called Otto”. The movie portrayed a childless man who loses his beloved wife and navigates life afterward. The movie moved me deeply, bringing tears to my eyes. In my next podcast, I will unveil the houses that determine your successor and explore the different types of successors one can have in life. So, stay tuned. Enough for now. Remember, your life has a purpose beyond what society expects. Embrace it fully, and let your unique journey unfold.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Cancer 2025: Growth Through Awareness

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

I don’t paint a rosy picture because I believe in being real. And when you are real, you must face the reality of life. For Cancer, the year 2025 is poised to be a challenging year—marked by financial difficulties and unexpected events. However, the purpose of these challenges is to guide you through a process of self-transformation, helping you realize the profound truth that life involves suffering. As Gautam Buddha rightly said, *“Life is suffering.”* It is through these experiences of suffering that we grow more conscious. This is why it is said, *“Suffering is the sole origin of consciousness.”*

Every evolved soul has walked through the fire of suffering. Without it, reaching higher states of awareness and consciousness is impossible. If you haven’t already, I recommend reading my first published book, *Gift of Consciousness*. Whether you love me or dislike me, it’s essential for me to reveal the reality of the planetary transits ahead so you can face them with preparedness, rather than staying lost in an illusion.

The script of your sign for 2025 is governed by four key players: Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu. Of these, only Saturn offers some relief.

– Jupiter will transit into your 12th house in May 2025.
– Rahu will move into your 8th house.
– Ketu will occupy your 2nd house.
– On the brighter side, **Saturn** will leave your 8th house, ending your *Dhaiya* period (mini *Sade Sati* or *Panoti*) and entering the 9th house.

This shift of Saturn into your 9th house is a positive development, but for it to bring rewards, you must ensure harmonious relationships with elderly men in your life—your father, grandfather, guru, boss, or uncle. If there are unresolved disputes, sort them out before March 2025 to maximize the benefits of this Saturn transit.

Jupiter’s movement into your 12th house will not favor material growth but will open doors for spiritual advancement. If you are already on a spiritual path, this transit will enhance your intuitive powers and offer profound spiritual experiences. Those with aspirations for long-term foreign settlement may find 2025 working in their favor, with good support and growth opportunities in foreign lands.

The most challenging development for Cancer natives is Rahu’s entry into the 8th house. This transit can trigger issues with joint finances, in-laws, mental anxiety, accidents, suicidal thoughts, and even black magic attacks. My advice:

– Avoid hurting or offending others.
– Regularly meditate and chant the mantra *“Aum Namaha Shivaya.”*
– Fast on Mondays, consuming only fruits and water, while chanting the mantra mentally.
– Stay away from family gatherings and parties, as jealousy often comes from within the family circle. Be discreet about your positive developments and guard yourself against betrayal from close relatives.

Ketu’s transit into your 2nd house can bring health-related challenges linked to food habits. Avoid overeating, eating at odd times, or consuming food in unsuitable places. Additionally, be cautious about food offerings, as negative energies can be transmitted through food. Before eating, always ask yourself:

1. Who is offering this food?
2. Who prepared it?
3. Where and what are you eating?

As a Sanatani, I advise avoiding places where beef or pork is served. It’s not only about food preferences but about respecting the spiritual teachings of Sanatan Dharma.

Preserving Our Heritage is important. The roots of Vedic Astrology are deeply embedded in the rich culture of Sanatana Dharma. A Hindu, nurtured in this tradition, can connect with Vedic Astrology more profoundly than outsiders. It’s essential to preserve this sacred wisdom and ensure it remains in the right hands.

Having traveled across the globe, I can humbly say that the depth and understanding I’ve seen in Indian Hindus are unparalleled. It stems from our rich heritage of Sanatana Dharma.

The message for Cancer natives is clear: Stay grounded, follow your *Svadharma* (own duty), and exercise caution. The challenges of 2025 will shape you into a more evolved and mature person.

As you navigate the year, avoid forcing outcomes. Instead, embrace life with a spirit of Let-Go. Just as God opens millions of flowers every day without forcing a single bud, you too will bloom into a beautiful flower. All you need is acceptance and the willingness to release anything that no longer serves you.

The key to thriving in 2025 is letting go and living with acceptance.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Jupiter Transit in Gemini 2025: Impact on Scorpio Ascendant Natives

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

The transit of Jupiter in Gemini for Scorpio Ascendants can be a little challenging because Jupiter is coming in the eighth house, Rahu is coming in the fourth house, and Saturn is already placed in the fifth house. So how this entire transit is going to impact you.

Cosmic Churn: A Transformative Time for Scorpio Ascendant Natives

The skies are shifting and the great cosmic ballet begins once more. Three mighty forces Jupiter, Saturn, and Rahu the celestial giants of karma, wisdom, and illusion are on the move.

Indeed, Saturn has already set foot into the mystical waters of Pisces. Jupiter prepares to descend into the enigmatic eighth house, and Rahu, the shadowy eclipse maker, inches towards your fourth house.

This isn’t just a transit. It’s a soul surgery – a time of intense inner alchemy.

For my beloved Scorpio Ascendant souls, a time of deep transformation awaits you. Jupiter in the 8th House invites you to dive beneath the surface of life. Beyond the material wheel, you may find yourself pulled towards the secrets of existence: astrology, mysticism, life after death. Questions you never dare to ask may now become your compass.

Financially, if you are married or engaged in partnerships, then joint wealth can grow. But remember, this is not a time for flamboyant success. Jupiter is busy holding your hand through the dark, shielding you from hidden enemies, karmic backlashes, and even subtle energies like black magic.

You may not win awards or promotions now, but peace returns to your nights, and the storm inside your personal life begins to settle. This is a divine pause, a sacred silence, a healing cocoon.

Rahu in the fourth house stirs unrest in family life and emotions. It clouds domestic peace. But thanks to Jupiter’s graceful placement, you will find protection still. You must tread with care, guard your heart, be wise with words, and keep your home blessed and clean.

Saturn’s shift into your fifth house brings a stern teacher to your door. He’ll ask for discipline in creativity, love, and studies. Students will feel the weight of responsibility, and artists may struggle with inspiration unless they surrender to structure and devotion.

But there is beauty here, too. Your love for rituals, mantras, and spiritual routines will deepen.

And so, yes, this is a testing phase. But remember, dear Scorpio, your sign was born to transform through fire. This year can become your spiritual rebirth—if you choose the path of surrender, devotion, and self-love.

Powerful Remedies for Scorpio Ascendant Natives:

Step One:
Every Thursday, worship Lord Ganesha. Light a lamp with cow’s ghee, place it before him, and chant the Ganesha mantra:
Om Gam Ganapataye Namah. Om Gam Ganapataye Namah. Om Gam Ganapataye Namah.
Chant this beautiful Ganesha mantra 108 times using a spatik japamala.

Step Two:
Begin fasting on Sankashta Chaturthi day—the day dedicated to removing obstacles. Fast from sunrise to moonrise and then break your fast by having a vegetarian diet.

Step Three:
On Sundays, visit Kalabhairav temple and chant:
Om Shri Kalabhairavaya Namah. Om Shri Kalabhairavaya Namah. Om Shri Kalabhairavaya Namah.
Chant this Kalabhairav mantra 108 times. Offer 1 coconut, 5 lemons, 250 grams of sweets such as laddus, and 1 kg wheat flour to Lord Kalabhairav.
Do this every Sunday. You should continue with this ritual for one full year, and then you will watch your life reshape itself from the roots.

Step Four:
Wear a 25-carat Suleimani Haqik.
Suleimani means holy and Haqik means stone—so Suleimani Haqik means “holy stone.”
Wear a 25-carat Suleimani Haqik (also known as black agate), set in a silver locket, and wear it around your neck. This sacred stone will act as your shield—neutralizing Rahu’s unsettling energy in the fourth house, bringing protection from black magic attacks, emotional stability, and grounding your thoughts.

And so, this year is not about chasing the world. It’s about rediscovering your own soul.

You are your own temple.
Love yourself. Respect your journey. Let the healing begin within.

Because only when you love yourself truly and deeply, you will be able to love others.
It is only then that love will begin to ripple outward—touching lives, mending hearts, and bringing back the smile you have forgotten you had.

So sing, dance, pray, transform. This is your year to rise—not outside, but within.

So close your eyes and fall in love with yourself.
That is what this transit is going to help you with.

I hope you have got the message.
Jai Sri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Aquarius 2025: Rahu Warning Ahead

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

Aquarius is the most vulnerable sign for the year 2025. The axis of Rahu will soon turn on Aquarius, meaning Rahu will come over your natal moon, and that certainly can cause some trouble in your life. Whenever the moon or mind gets afflicted by Rahu, you are bound to get lost in your own illusions and make wrong decisions, which will later backfire on you. Whether Rahu is the ruler of Aquarius or not, Rahu is Rahu, and this Rahu will definitely haunt you in the year 2025 if you don’t focus on your self-growth practices, such as doing more and more meditation, mantra chanting, and worshipping the Lord of all Lords, Mahadev, Lord Shiva.

My new book, releasing in March 2025, can become a good guide for you as it is going to help you realize the workings of the mind and how you can deal with it. Rahu transiting over your moon and Ketu transiting your seventh house from the moon can also create challenges in relationships and marriage. Be aware of getting into any extra-marital affairs if you are already married to someone. Jupiter will transit in the fifth house, but only after April 2025, so this can help you overcome some of the negative effects of Rahu transiting over your moon. However, for that, you have to do certain remedies, such as fasting every Thursday (Guruvwar), wearing a nine-carat topaz in a gold ring on your right-hand index finger, and visiting an Aumbbar tree every Thursday (Guruwar), taking seven rounds around it, and lighting a lamp filled with cow’s ghee every evening between 6 PM and 8 PM.

I also suggest that to overcome the negative effects of Rahu transiting over your moon, it is necessary to stop eating non-veg food or cut down your non-veg intake and eat it only on Sundays. Saturn moving out from your moon sign and entering Pisces can bring significant financial stress on you. Financial and family matters can make you feel burdened, and since the last phase of Sade Sati begins in March 2025, it is necessary to visit a Lord Hanuman temple every Saturday. Break one coconut before him, or offer salt and black Udad dal. Take seven rounds around a peepal tree and light a lamp using mustard oil beneath it.

Remember, the whole direction of your chart based on your moon sign is decided by the transit of the big boys: Saturn, Jupiter, as well as the disruptive forces Rahu and Ketu. These four entities set the storyline of your life for the year 2025. And since, except for Jupiter, the race of the three entities—Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu—is not in your favor, the year 2025 is certainly going to be a challenging year for many of you born with the moon in Aquarius.

However, if you are going through Jupiter Mahadasha, Moon Mahadasha, Venus Mahadasha, or Mercury Mahadasha, then the pain and suffering will reduce, and you will not feel any intense negative results in the year 2025. So, along with the transit of major planets in 2025, it also depends on what your birth chart and Mahadasha are going through. The transits trigger or manifest certain events in your life, but for that to happen, the Mahadasha in your birth chart should support it. If the transit is going to give negative results but your Mahadasha is positive, then, my dear fellow, you will be alright.

Still, to receive maximum benefits in the year 2025, you must follow the remedies I have already suggested for your good. And always remember to stay away from hypocrites who don’t want to hear the truth because it is only when you have the courage to face the facts that you can truly evolve and roar like a lion, ready to take on the world.

Love to all my Aquarius followers. I am with you, and anytime you feel low, you can always reach out to me. The new year is just around the corner, and this sharing is not to cause fear but to help you realize the challenges ahead so that you come out of your rosy world and become more realistic and real. I could have painted a rosy picture if I wanted to have many likes, but my followers know that whatever I do, I do from my heart—not for likes but simply to help you come face to face with the reality of life.

Jai Sri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Love House in Astrology

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

The whole source of the Love that you seek – is in the FIFTH house of your birth chart.

LOVE is one thing. Marriage is other thing. Marriage is only a working partnership. LOVE is something else, altogether different than what marriage is!

Love has absolutely no relation to LOGIC, to RULES, to INTELLECT – it is quite unconnected to thought. Love HAPPENS – the word ‘HAPPEN’ is beautiful – I personally love this word – because whatever HAPPENS is never planned – it just ‘happens’!

Life is also something that – happens! Love, Life is never planned – it just happens. And so does – SANNYAS!

That is the reason why 5th house is significant. That is the reason why 5th Lord is significant. And that is the reason why LOVE is significant.

Love needs tremendous COURAGE! When a man or woman is fired up with LOVE – they can go to any extent to attain the LOVE that they SEEK.

5th house also signify COURAGE. Remember 5th house is represented by the SIGN LEO – the LION!

Love is the ‘source’ that brings COURAGE. This LOVE can be the LOVE for a person or for the NATION! Freedom Fighters became fighters because they had tremendous LOVE for the NATION – Bhagat Singh, Lokmanya Tilak, Veer Savarkar – Mahatama Gandhi and many freedom fighters were aflamed with LOVE for our country – it is always LOVE that ‘triggers’ the whole story of life, it is always LOVE that brings life to our being.

In the beginning you are seeking LOVE. Then someday and at someplace – you FALL in love. But the real ‘maturity’ comes when you no more fall in love but you become love!

The whole purpose of LIFE is to become LOVE!

Love is the GOAL – Life is the journey to attain the GOAL – LOVE!

Only a man who can become LOVE – can live LIFE in totality and only a man who can live life with LOVE – can one day attain the BUDDHAHOOD – (Sannyas)!

It is all inter-connected, and the thread that connects LOVE, LIFE, SANYAS is LOVE!

A man or woman whose 5th house is aflame with MARS – SUN – JUPITER or VENUS or MOON is indeed a man of LOVE – he loves ROMANCE. But one must understand that ROMANCE can of many layers – from the base to the high level!

One must understand that the Oxford dictionary defines the words ROMANCE as a kind of ADVENTURE!

And Adventures can of many levels and of all kinds – and the very first ADVENTURE that LOVE initiates is to ‘JUMP’ into the unknown!

Once you are in LOVE, once you are aflame with LOVE – once your whole being is fired up with LOVE – you can JUMP – you will JUMP!

That is how many LOVERS have JUMPED and RISKED their life – and there has been absolutely NO REGRET – because LOVE never REGRETS – when you LOVE, you simply LOVE!

And when this LOVE is raised to the HIGHER ALTITUDES – SPIRITUALISM – then you have someone as beautiful as JOHN, the baptist, Peter, the fisherman, Ananda, Arjuna – who has so much LOVE for their master – that they never looked back, never asked a single question, never raised any doubts – they SIMPLY JUMPED into the unknown – the followed the Master!

Love has many layers – the love that Buddha has will of different quality than the love that Hitler has! Hitler’s love will be hot – that is what the commoners know about love – to them LOVE always have to be HOT! Even when they eat dog – they want HOT DOG! So the concept of LOVE for the commoners is of HOT LOVE, SEXUAL LOVE.

But Buddha…..Buddha’s love is like that cool breeze, there is no demand, no conditions, when you in the omnipresence of Buddha – the love that you receive is different than the HOT LOVE that you have known.

The HOT LOVE that people have is not LOVE in totality – it also has the shade of HATE. The ‘fights’ is a result of that HATE – when the fight is over – you cool down and then again you are in the bed – making LOVE! You see – this is how the LOVE of the physical world is!

But BUDDHA – in BUDDHA’s LOVE you will find absolutely no shade of hate and so many may also find BUDDHA’s love as BORING because there is no ‘spice’ in HIS love!

You may say anything to HIM and yet he is NOT going to react. HE is simply going to SMILE and HIS smile is so penetrating that if you can receive – then his smile can simply penetrate into the deepest valleys of your heart and move you within!

Buddha is the highest the purest state of LOVE that knows only to SHARE, to GIVE and just to GIVE!

You can only GIVE if you HAVE!

Buddha has it – in fact Buddha is not just filled with LOVE – BUDDHA is LOVE!

Before leaving his body – Buddha had said to his disciples “ Do NOT make statue of me because once I am gone, I am gone. The statue can go on deceiving you for centuries.”

For five hundred centuries no statue was made. But later people started building statues of Buddha – when Buddha himself had said “ Do NOT make statue of me.”

There is a very deep meaning to the beautiful message that Buddha had shared with his disciples – and it is significant for you all to understand.

It is always easy to follow a STATUE – it is of BUDDHA but it is DEAD. It cannot move you – cannot disrupt you – cannot pull you away from your illusions!

But ALIVE BUDDHA – can ask you to do something that is in your interest but not in your favor! The ALIVE BUDDHA can ask you to drop everything and FOLLOW HIM – then it will be difficult because you are attached to each and everything – right from your CAR, HOME, to your WIFE and children and so ALIVE BUDDHA is dangerous – a STATUE is BETTER! Make nice STATUE – offer a nice garland of beautiful flowers – burn an incense stick – and that is all! You are safe – the STATUE is NOT going to ask for anything – you can safely say that I LOVE THE STATUE – but you will think twice if in the place of the STATUE – the REAL BUDDHA – the ALIVE BUDDHA is present because then the master is not dead – he is ALIVE and people always find it a challenge to follow the MASTER’s word – because THOSE words disrupt the MIND – and you are still caught up with the MIND – the MIND loves STATUES of MASTERS (it is a safe bet) – but the same MIND will start shivering if the REAL BUDDHA comes – because BUDDHA is the state of NO MIND and LOVE exists only when there is NO MIND but only the heart – the consciousness!

To conquer others – you may succeed someday, at some birth cycle. But to conquer your MIND – to become the Master of your Mind – is NOT so easy. It may take a lifetime or many births until – the ‘Buddha’ is born.
“Buddha” is not a name, it is a title. It is a title that reveals the state of NO MIND. Buddha means the state of NO MIND. Buddha is NO MIND.

NO MIND – means NO LOGIC, NO HEAD – and LOVE HAPPENS only when there is NO LOGIC, NO HEAD – absolutely NO HEAD.

There are many aspects that may initiate LOVE MARRIAGE – one of them is when the fifth house lord connects in some way with the seventh house – a strong possibility of a Love Marriage is signified.

Rarely does one find LOVE in MARRIAGE! There are ‘individuals’ who are destined to find LOVE only OUTSIDE marriage. Universe is vast – very vast – the MIND cannot contain the VASTNESS of this UNIVERSE – and so people who are slaves of their MIND cannot feel the VASTNESS and along with it the many many millions and millions of SITUATIONAL SCENARIOS that evolve in certain ‘individual’s’ life!

There are many such – in millions around this VAST HUMAN WORLD – who enjoy sexual pleasures, emotional support, hand-holding only OUTSIDE MARRIAGE and not in marriage!

So MARRIAGE definitely has NOTHING do with LOVE. In a rare case – in exceptional cases – if marriage happens out of LOVE – then it is a different thing – but statistics show that maximum DIVORCE CASES are from LOVE MARRIAGES than otherwise!

But still ‘MARRIAGE’ remains an institution that is going to remain forever – for the sole reason – that MARRIAGE is a part of tradition – a practical MEDIUM – to attain material GAINS!

During the Imperial Age – the KINGS would have many marriages with many women of princely states – because those MARRIAGES would SECURE the material gains and strengthen his authority over more provinces and more people.

So MARRIAGE is always going to remain – it is not a necessity but it has been made compulsory – because it has absolutely NOTHING to do with LOVE – but more to do with STATUS, and SOCIETY!

For LOVE – only 5th house and 5th house LORD’s connection with VENUS is enough.

For LOVE MARRIAGE – the 7th house connection with the 5th house is necessary.

Generally women or men having MARS VENUS conjunction are highly sexual by nature – and they also look very HOT. So sexuality is seen but this sexuality has absolutely nothing to do with marriage.

VENUS MOON – again is a highly sexual woman or man. This is also a pleasure seeking BHOGI person – and enjoys many sexual pleasures in life – along with other luxuries of life.

VENUS RAHU – again highly sexual – wants MORE sex – real time sex that LAST LONGER – and not just get over in 5 minutes.

VENUS URANUS – this person likes to have unique way of doing SEX – they always try out new things to add excitement to their sexual experiences. Erotic sex is something they love to explore – and are generally out of the box thinkers when it comes to having sex.

VENUS NEPTUNE – this person lacks actual ACTION in the BED. He goes on imagining and fantasizing – and in the process bores the partner (if the partner is strong sexual being). Because the partner wants some hard sex – and this person simply is too soft and kills all the fun that the partner expects.

Human life comes with many flavors – and HUMAN becomes GODLY – when there is absolutely NO flavor left – NIRGUNA – when there is no SATVIC guna, no TAMASIC Guna, and no RAJAS Guna – NIRGUNA!

NAR – to – NARAYAN. That is the whole journey – my fellows, that is the whole journey – NAR (HUMAN) nature is of being BHOGI (pleasure seeking) and NARAYAN is the nature of being YOGI (God seeking)!

Births happen – today a woman is not happy in her marriage, not satisfied sexually in her marriage – she will come back – today a man is not happy in his marriage, not satisfied sexually in his marriage – he will come back. This is how the cycle of birth and rebirth continues – you keep coming back- and SOCIETY has made this more complicated because SOCIETY blocks the men and women to seek sexual pleasures from else where – and then there is no other option – the man/woman dies with the DESIRE unfulfilled – and takes BIRTH again to satisfy the unfinished business!

This whole cycle of rebirth could have been avoided – had they satisfied their desire in the same life itself! But the question of wrong doing and right doing comes in between them and their desires – indeed a very touching situation – that only a master can understand – because the master is BEYOND the society’s so called ‘WRONG DOING’ and ‘RIGHT DOING’ theories.

The master can understand YOU. The real GURU will ACCEPT you without asking you a single question. The real master will NEVER judge you – HE can understand your heart than anybody else would!

Always remember MORALITY is SUBJECTIVE – is totally SITUATIONAL BASED. MORALITY is totally based on your level of CONSCIOUSNESS.

Remember Sri Krishna – remember the many ways that otherwise are not considered to be ethical that Krishna implemented during the Mahabharata War? Now would you call Krishna immoral? NO that would sound too stupid! Because what KRISHNA did was spontaneous – his morality was spontaneous and in the state of TOTAL CONSCIOUSNESS.

WHATEVER YOU DO – IF YOU ARE DOING IT WITH CONSCIOUSNESS – WITH FULL AWARENESS than that is the real morality – it is NOT fake – it is NOT because of any outside pressure – it is spontaneous, and very much a result of your own consciousness!

Rumi when says “ I will meet you on a field which is beyond the ‘wrong doing’ and ‘right doing’” – HE addresses the FIELD of CONSCIOUSNESS!

How beautiful is this and how deep – only a meditative being can truly relate, can truly understand. Bliss. Pure bliss.

5th house is very important because LOVE is very important! Without 5th house and 5th house Lord support – LOVE is missed, it is simply missed!

And only a man who can LOVE – can also LOVE someday GOD – can also go to the extremes to experience GOD – can also become a BUDDHA! Because he can JUMP – he can be COURAGEOUS – he can go beyond MIND – and only a man who can GO BEYOND MIND – can do something that is OUT OF MIND!

A man who has gone all HIS way to attain the LOVE of his life, has all the ‘necessary’ qualities to attain GOD – such a man *is* SPIRITUAL because LOVE is SPIRITUAL and HE has already surrendered to LOVE – so going a step ahead – crossing the boundary of the KINGDOM is not going to be difficult for him – and that is what Prince Siddhartha did – when time came, when the CALL OF THE DIVINE came – he simply left his KINGDOM – and became the BUDDHA – Gautama Buddha!

Only a man who can dive – who can JUMP can become a BUDDHA someday. And you will dive, you will jump, you will show courage only when you are truly a follower of your HEART!

That is the reason that I have always encouraged you all to FOLLOW your heart. The society says FOLLOW YOUR HEAD – FOLLOW YOUR LOGIC – but the divine compassionate master is encouraging you all to FOLLOW YOUR HEART – only then LOVE is possible, only then the dance is possible, and only then this life is possible!

Always follow your heart, your heart knows the way – run in that direction, for the heart is always right. Always.

Meditation is the ‘path’ that can help you reach your Heart! Heart-meditation – focus on your heart – be attentive to your breathing and meditate every day.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Jupiter Transit in Gemini 2025: Impact on Pisces Ascendant

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

There are many, many good developments happening for Pisces sign. The arrival of Jupiter in the fourth house, Rahu moving out of Pisces on 29th of May, and Saturn in the first house—that is, in Pisces itself.

Except for Saturn, both the transits—Jupiter and Rahu—are becoming positive. So the coming time for Pisces, starting from the 1st of June onwards, is going to be very, very positive.

A Cosmic Shift Awaits You, Dear Pisces

The celestial skies are stirring, and the cosmic symphony is about to play a transformative melody. Three mighty giants—Jupiter, Saturn, and Rahu—are taking new positions in the great theatre of the galaxy. The wheel of destiny is turning.

And for those born under the Pisces Ascendant or with Pisces Moon, a new chapter unfolds with divine precision.

Saturn, the taskmaster of time, has already entered your first house—standing tall at the gates of your destiny. He now watches you closely, urging you to walk the path of truth, structure, and responsibility. Saturn will test your sincerity in relationships, your discipline in daily life, and your dedication to your soul’s evolution.

This is not the time to falter or betray. Loyalty, honesty, and simplicity are the virtues he will reward.

Jupiter, the benevolent guru of wisdom and grace, will soon bless your fourth house—the sacred space of home, mother, inner peace, and emotional nourishment. A warm golden light begins to spread through your domestic sphere.

If you have been dreaming of owning a bigger home, a grand vehicle, or investing in land—then this is the time. The universe nods in agreement. Your mother’s health will improve, and your heart will feel more anchored in comfort and contentment.

Rahu, the mysterious shadow of desire and detachment. For the past 18 months, Rahu has loomed over your Moon—clouding clarity, disrupting sleep, and stirring inner chaos.

But here comes relief—a sweet release. On 29 May, Rahu moves away from your natal Moon and slips into your 12th house.

From 1 June onwards, you will feel a wave of calm washing over your mind and spirit. Serenity returns. Inner storms begin to settle.

This Rahu may nudge you to explore spiritual retreats, indulge in healing therapies, or spend on travel and rejuvenation. It may even bring mystical experiences, nudging you gently to look beyond the visible into the eternal.

And worry not—Jupiter’s divine ninth aspect will keep Rahu in check, ensuring that illusions don’t overpower you. Guidance will be available, and protection shall remain.

Now Is the Time to Rise, Dear Pisces

Your spiritual journey deepens. Your responsibilities will shape you. Your discipline will liberate you.

Three Important Remedies for Pisces Natives

Remedy 1 – For Mondays
Start worshipping Lord Shiva.
Perform Panchamrut Abhishek on a Shiva Linga. Fast from sunrise to sunset—fruits, water, and milk are allowed. End with a simple vegetarian meal.
Chant Om Namah Shivaya. Om Namah Shiva. Om Namah Shivay—108 times using a Rudraksha Japamala.

Feed 1 kg soaked yellow lentils mixed with jaggery powder to cows. A gesture of compassion that brings divine blessings.

All these activities should be done on Mondays.

Remedy 2 – For Saturdays
Visit a Hanuman temple. Break a coconut before the Lord. Take seven rounds around the sacred peepul tree and light a mustard oil lamp beneath it—invoking protection, strength, and perseverance.

This you should continue doing for all Saturdays.

Remedy 3 – For Thursdays
Donate one liter of cow’s ghee at a Ganesha temple.
By giving, you will be able to light the lamp of prosperity in your life.

These sacred actions, born out of devotion and intention, will invite abundance into your life and illuminate your path.

Pisces, you are a dreamer by heart and a seeker by soul.
But now, the universe calls upon you to ground your dreams with action, to temper emotion with discipline, and to blend wisdom with wonder.

A new karmic cycle has begun.
Your soul is ready. Your destiny awaits.

Walk with faith, and the stars shall walk with you.

Jai Sri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Gemini 2025: Stress to Self-Discovery

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

“All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” Without time for enjoyment or personal fulfillment, life can become monotonous and uninspiring! For Gemini natives, 2024 was a year marked by unending deadlines, long hours at work, and an overwhelming sense of busyness. While your professional life kept you on your toes, it often came at the cost of your personal life. Family gatherings were missed, time with friends became a rare luxury, and moments of self-reflection felt like a distant dream. The year 2024 pushed you to your limits, leaving little room for balance or peace.

But here’s the good news—2025 is bringing a refreshing change! This year, the universe is aligning to bring you a much-needed break from the grind. The stress and hustle of work life will begin to ease, making way for a more harmonious and fulfilling lifestyle. You’ll find yourself reconnecting with your loved ones, cherishing quality time with family, and rekindling old friendships. The bonds you’ve missed nurturing in the past year will grow stronger, bringing warmth and joy into your life.

2025 is the perfect time to engage in self-growth activities that nourish your soul and uplift your spirit. Imagine starting your mornings with peaceful meditation, practicing yoga to rejuvenate your body and mind, or chanting powerful mantras that fill your life with positivity and focus. This year invites you to rediscover the beauty of balance, where work, family, and personal well-being coexist harmoniously.

This positive transformation will occur in your life through the blessings of Jupiter. In May 2025, Jupiter (Guru) will enter your moon sign, Gemini, and from that point onward, you’ll begin to feel more positive, confident, and driven toward higher knowledge and philosophies. Additionally, Rahu will shift into your 9th house, relieving the career struggles you’ve experienced. Soon, a sense of contentment will settle in, allowing you to shift your focus from career matters to exploring ideologies, long travels, reading, and understanding the higher purpose of life.

Suddenly, you’ll transition from being power-hungry to being knowledge-hungry. Rahu signifies hunger—desires and ambitions remain, but the nature of these desires evolves based on Rahu’s transit. The year 2025 is set to transform you from a meticulous manager into a dynamic leader.

Gemini and Virgo are often associated with producing micromanagers—individuals who can be difficult to work with. A micromanager typically struggles to transform into a true leader, remaining a boss rather than an inspiring figure. However, Rahu’s transit into the 9th house in 2025 presents you with an opportunity to expand your perspective and grow into a motivational leader. True maturity comes when you shift your focus from the smaller picture to the bigger one.

With Rahu and Jupiter aligning in your favor, Saturn’s presence in your 10th house might initially slow you down at work, leaving you feeling stuck or burdened with extra responsibilities. But on the brighter side, this transit is paving the way for a well-deserved promotion or elevation to a higher position, allowing you to embrace a role of authority in 2025.

Soon, you may find yourself living the famous line from the movie *The Godfather*: “I’m going to make him an offer he can’t refuse.” Great job opportunities or business deals are likely to come your way, propelling you into the position of a true Big Boss. However, as the saying goes, “With great power comes great responsibility.” As success and influence arrive at your doorstep, it’s crucial to handle them with care, wisdom, and efficiency. That’s the key message for Gemini natives in the year 2025—embrace the power, but let it guide you to lead with balance and grace.

Ketu’s influence in your 3rd house adds profound depth to your communication style. You’ll find yourself naturally drawn to exploring the higher philosophies of life, uncovering the truths that lie beyond the surface of human existence. This newfound understanding will encourage a quiet wisdom within you, prompting you to speak less but with greater meaning. Your words will carry a weight that captivates others, resonating with a sense of wisdom and authenticity. People will be drawn to you, not just for your charm but for the substance and insight you offer. This charisma will be rooted in depth, not superficiality, making your presence both magnetic and meaningful. With Ketu’s guidance, your voice becomes a bridge to higher understanding, and your silence speaks volumes.

I personally think that Gemini is indeed one of those top 5 zodiac signs for the year 2025—considering that Jupiter, Rahu, Saturn, and Ketu are going to shower their blessings upon you, turning positive and in your favor! Technically, there is no need for any specific remedy, but to attain the maximum benefit of the upcoming positive transit—fast on Wednesdays and recite the powerful Vishnu Mantra, “Aum Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya,” 108 times using a Sphatik Japamala every morning and evening. Also, feed the birds and fishes as much as possible on all days.

And so, as I conclude—Gemini is indeed the rising star of 2025, and you are bound to start seeing positive developments in your life from March 2025 onward. When you start feeling the positive vibes, do send me a smiling photo of yours, because when you smile, you look beautiful.

Love to all my Gemini Moon followers—stay optimistic and get ready for grand success in the new year 2025.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Breakups: Planet Behind Pain

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

Venus is a dealer. Moon is a caretaker. When both come together – there is a mismatch! Venus cannot understand the illogical way of moon and moon cannot understand the logical way of Venus. For marriage or a successful relationship – along with Venus – Mercury is also very important. Sex, love, sexual activity – is all based on how you process your thoughts – and this processing of thoughts comes under the domain of Mercury. That is why in many cases – even though Venus is positive – still the person continues to fail in his or her relationship due to the poor placement of Mercury or afflicted Mercury.

Today – as we all celebrate the beautiful day of Valentine – it is necessary to understand that the success of your relationship comes down to Mercury and its overall condition in your birth chart.

I will not hesitate to state that even though your Venus is debilitated and placed in Virgo – still if Mercury is placed in Virgo or Gemini or is placed in the 7th house with positive aspects from Jupiter – then you will succeed in your relationship or marriage.

On this Valentine – I want to specifically reveal this secret of successful relationship to my close followers – and the secret is now open – the key planet for a successful marriage or relationship is the princely planet – Prince Mercury!

The woman may have exceptional beauty, she may be entertaining, she may be intelligent, she may have unique artistic talent but if she is not have a certain depth of understanding then she cannot sustain her relationship for long. The same is applicable to man. It is based on the overall placement of Mercury that you level of understanding is seen. Buddha says – True love is born from understanding. Buddha further says – When you understand everything – you forgive everything! The success of every relationship that happens on this planet is based on the level of understanding. When both – the man and woman has good level of understanding – they will continue to walk hand in hand through the many high and lows of life. And this deep level understanding comes only from the grace of Mercury and Jupiter.

Venus is all about looks, artistic talent, love-making, kissing, fashion designing or all kinds of designing, glamor. However this is not enough for a relationship to blossom and deepen. You also need “Vivek Buddhi” – “Vivek Buddhi” means reasoning through constructive positive set of mind. Otherwise you all have read news wherein the man and women fall in love – run away and get married and then one day the man kills the woman and cuts her into pieces – is this love? This happens because of “irrational mind” – and such an irrational mind – cruel mind is due to poor placement of moon and mercury in the chart. Moon is the Master of Mercury. And when Moon – that is when Mind is corrupted – it gives all kinds of wrong – self-destructive orders to the brain which is Mercury. Mercury is responsible for the processing of thoughts or command that happens through the brain. And so just having a strong Venus is not enough – you need to have a good placement of Mercury and Moon – with positive aspects from Jupiter or Venus or Sun – to succeed in a relationship.

Yesterday – a young man came and said “I have fallen in love” – I asked “When did it happen – because till yesterday you were alright.” He said “That’s right – but today while travelling – I saw a beautiful girl.” – I asked “Where did you see her?” He said – at the traffic signal. She was on her bike – and I couldn’t help myself – I fell in love.” – This is how it happens – this young man kept his Mercury aside and has now fallen in love. Now he will start with his efforts – one day he may even succeed – but such a love is short-lived – there is no connection of the soul – the understanding of each other is missing – there has been no dialog – this is infatuation and not love. Just boom boom for few days and then the heat is gone – then again you are wandering in the cold winters of your life.

So on this Valentine – it is necessary to remind yourself that to succeed in a relationship – you need to first become friends. If you remain lovers then love can evaporate after a few days of honeymoon. Real love is known only after the honeymoon. When excitement ends – intimacy grows! In the beginning of a relationship – you are excited – something is going to happen. And when you remain in this relationship for a long period – things settles – then you truly become one with your partner – then you don’t need any excitement – you understand her very well and this understanding becomes the foundation of your relationship! The same is applicable to the Master and the disciple. In the beginning – you come across my podcast – you are excited – this man is saying something new – this man is sharing something unique – the excitement is there – then slowly slowly as you remain with me for a longer period – the excitement is gone – you become more aligned with the essence of my whole being – my sharings – and before you could realize – you have already fallen in love with my sharings! And that is why I say – Real Love happens only when the excitement of honeymoon is over! So whosoever has been with me for a longer time through this channel – they have truly aligned with me – naturally they have melted in my being without known when and how it all happened – that’s love – that’s Valentine!

And so to experience a happy Valentine – it is necessary that along with your looks, your body shape, your artistic talent – you also focus on raising the level of your understanding. A beautiful woman with absolute no depth of understanding is like a bottle of poison whose label says “Its pure nectar”! And a not so beautiful woman with much depth of understanding is a bottle of nectar whose label says “Take with Caution”. This is how the mad mad world is – because you see through your mind and not with your eyes! Discrimination happens because of this – because the mind always loves to discriminate based on caste, color, religion and what not. Love is impossible as long as you continue to see through your mind. Once it happened – there was one such man – he was not beautiful – he was not handsome – he looked ugly – nobody had ever called him “Beautiful”. His name was VINCENT VAN GOGH. And the story is such that His whole life van Gogh was just giving his paintings to friends: to the hotel where he used to eat four days a week he would present a painting, or to a prostitute who had said once to him that he was not a beautiful man. To be absolutely factual, he was ugly. No woman ever fell in love with him, it was impossible.

This prostitute out of compassion — and sometimes prostitutes have more compassion than your so-called ladies, they understand men more — just out of compassion she said, “I like you very much.” He had never heard this. Love was a far away thing. Even liking….

He said, “Really, you like me? What do you like in me?” Now, the woman was at a loss.

She said, “I like your ears. Your ears are beautiful.” And you will be surprised that van Gogh went home, cut off his ears with a razor, packed them beautifully, went to the prostitute and gave his ears to her. And blood was flowing….

She said, “What have you done?”

He said, “Nobody ever liked anything in me. And I am a poor man, how can I thank you? You liked my ears; I have presented them to you. If you had liked my eyes, I would have presented my eyes to you If you had liked me, I would have died for you.”

The prostitute could not believe it. But for the first time, van Gogh was happy, smiling; somebody had liked at least a part of him.

Love is happy when it is able to give something. Ego is happy when it is able to take something. Vincent became a legendary painter – he became world famous for his paintings but after his death. When he was alive – there was nobody who would have appreciated his beauty – and so when the prostitute said casually – even though she didn’t mean what she said – even then – those words – “I like your ears. Your ears are beautiful.” touched his heart – and he presented his ears to her as a gift! How deep is this man – how to express his depth of being – but this is how a man of love is – no doubt he became the greatest painter that the world had ever known – when you have so much of love – so much of depth of being – it is natural that you are exceptional – you are beautiful.

Enough for now – wishing each one of you a very happy Valentine day – deepen your level of understanding and you will be able to save your relationship – you will succeed in your relationship because as the Buddha says – True love is born from understanding – when you understand everything – you forgive everything.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.
