Lunar Eclipse 7 September 2025 Predictions | Vedic Astrology, Diet, Mantras & Remedies for All Signs

Namaste. Just two days ago, I received this Asia Excellence Award from the hands of Bollywood actress and Member of Parliament Jaya Pradhaji. And this award is not just mine, but also yours. Because for many days, months and years, I have been sharing on this platform and you all have been resonating, responding with your beautiful comments, your love. I am very thankful to each one of you. In our journey, we all come across all kind of challenges. There are many times people, negative people who try to hurt us. I am also not an exception to this. This entire journey, as I was going through, many negative, offensive people also came, but I never reacted to them. I simply blocked them and deleted them. Shift, delete and block. That’s all. Never react. Because when you react, you are trapped in that vicious cycle of karma. And as you all know, my journey began from the streets of Pune at the age of 14. And I had no mother and no father, and I was a homeless person from that point till today. You can see that I’m still alive. And this is an inspiration for you also that no matter how much difficult life is, if you stay faithful, if you stay positive, then you will definitely succeed.

Lunar eclipse is happening on Sunday. That is on the 7th of September. I have shared specific mantra, remedy, diet plan, as well as donations that you should do so as to bring down the intensity of the negative effects of this lunar eclipse. Always remember, everything is possible. However, you have to be consistent in whatever you are doing along with this revelations for all the 12 zodiac signs. When I say zodiac, I mean the moon sign. Because Vedic astrology is rooted in the moon sign. Everything comes down to this mind. People think that if money comes, then happiness comes, but that is not true. Otherwise every rich man and woman would have been happy forever. But that is not the case. In fact, it is the other way around. The more money comes, the more complications. So along with these revelations about diet plan, mantra remedy and donations, there is also very, very important message, especially for all my close followers, that if you truly want to evolve, then you should listen to this message. Always remember, narrow mind or narrowness can lead you to nowhere. And once again, I want to thank each one of you. I remember few of you, but if I take your names, then maybe there are others who are following me regularly. But I want to again thank each one of you for this award, which I received on Saturday 30 August, the Asia Excellence Award. This would have not been possible without your love and support.

The lunar eclipse. Chandra Grahan will grace the skies on the 7th of September exactly the day after the 10 day Ganesh festival concludes on the 6th. It feels symbolic, as if after bidding farewell to Lord Ganesha, remover of obstacles, the very next day the moon itself is veiled by shadow. A cosmic reminder that every ending births a new transition. A lunar eclipse occurs when the moon journeys over Rahu or Ketu. This year Rahu is transiting through Aquarius. And so the eclipse too falls in this sign of the water bearer. And let me tell you, Aquarius is already bearing a heavy load. Alongside Rahu’s transit, Aquarius is also enduring the last phase of Sade Sati, Saturn’s testing passage. If your moon sign is Aquarius, my heart reaches out to you, my fellows. I know the storms you may be facing, especially if your planetary period Mahadasha is Rahu, Ketu, or any other challenging configuration. It feels as if lifetimes of karmic debts have gathered at your doorstep demanding repayment all at once. That is why I always insist my fellows do not post negative comments, do not hurt others and do not discriminate based on caste or religion. Never sow new seeds of negativity when old karmas are already weighing heavy upon you. To look down upon others based on caste, religion or community is not only ignorance, it is a sure path to downfall. Remember, to be born a Brahmin or Kshatriya or Rajput in this life is no guarantee of the next. Karma decides everything, my fellows. Karma decides everything. A proud Brahmin today may be born in a dog’s family tomorrow. An arrogant priest today may return in the next birth carrying incurable diseases. Hundreds of such examples exist. For the law of Karma spares no one. The new age is sending us a message loud and clear. Embrace universality. There are millions of people across this planet speaking countless languages, living through infinite shades of life. What binds us together is not caste, not religion, not language, but our shared humanity. Aquarius, by its very nature, fights for equality, for human rights, for breaking rigid walls that divide people. The ruling planet of Aquarius is Uranus. Herschel. Uranus is the revolutionary force that disrupts old dogmas and births new consciousness. And that is why our times are called the Aquarian Age. Barriers are breaking, hearts are awakening. Humanity is rising. I have always said, if ever I am to teach someone astrology. That student must not be narrow minded, tied to one religion or bound by caste. He or she must be open to all faiths, all traditions, all languages, seeing beyond boundaries, respecting humanity above everything. A true seeker is one who uses his intelligence, not one who simply parrots scriptures without reflection. So as this lunar eclipse in Aquarius approaches, see it as a cosmic announcement. A tide of change is flowing. Over the coming 12 years, society will open further, embracing diversity, transcending rigid dogmas and uplifting the definition of modern life to an even higher plane. Remember, a lunar eclipse in any sign repeats only after 18 years. For Rahu and Ketu takes 18 years to complete one revolution through all 12 signs. This moment is significant and its ripple will be felt deeply.

I had already alerted you all about the twin eclipses of September, lunar and solar. Now let us begin to understand the impact of this 7 September lunar eclipse in the sign of Aquarius and how it will impact each of the 12 moon signs. Remember, the root of Vedic astrology is in the moon sign, the moon chart. And so these predictions are also based on moon signs.

Aries: For Aries, the Eclipse activates the 11th House of Gains from friends and social circles. You may find that people you trusted show their true colors. Now promises may not be fulfilled and expectations from friends or elder siblings could bring disappointment. This is a time when Rahu’s shadow tests your ability to detach from shallow connections and seek depth in relationships spiritually. This is a call to purify your circle. Do not chase every opportunity or cling to every relationship. Ask yourself who truly stands by you when storms arrive. Remember, quantity of friends means little, quality of connections is everything. Now I will reveal the mantra remedy, diet plan and donation that you should observe or do during this period. The mantra remedy is chant Om Hanumate Namah 108 times daily. Hanuman Ji removes Rahu’s illusions and grants courage. The meaning of the mantra is I bow to Hanuman who gives strength and protects against evil influences. The diet plan for Aries is keep meals light and energizing Moong Dal Khichdi with ghee, fresh fruits and coconut water will balance fiery Mars energy. Avoid alcohol, fried food and anger inducing spicy meals. Remember, whenever you eat spicy meals, you are more prone to becoming angry now and then. So avoid spicy meals during the lunar eclipse period. And regarding donation, you should donate jaggery, black sesame seeds or support the education of underprivileged children. Sharing knowledge clears Rahu’s karmic depths. Remember this.

Taurus: The eclipse falls in your 10th House of Karma, profession and public life. Career uncertainties may arise. Delays in promotions, authority figures being harsh, or sudden changes at the workplace. Do not fear these shifts. They are karmic adjustments preparing you for a new direction. Your dignity is being tested now. How you respond under pressure matters more than what happens externally. Avoid ego clashes with superiors and keep your karma clean. Do not abuse or offend others through your comments or actions. Chant the mantra Om Namah Shivaya. Om Namah Shivaya. Om Namah Shivaya meaning I bow to Lord Shiva, the eternal auspicious one. Lord Shiva calms restlessness, ambition and clears karmic blockages. And your diet plan. Keep sattvic diet of milk, curd fruits and leafy green vegetables. Avoid meat, onion and garlic until the eclipse is over. So two days before the eclipse and two days after the eclipse. For these around four, five days, maintain this satvic diet. And when it comes to donation, donate white rice, curd or milk to the needy. Supporting purity attracts career blessings. Remember this.

Gemini: for Gemini. The eclipse illuminates the 9th House of Dharma, higher wisdom and fatherly figures. You may feel restless about your faith, feelings, philosophies or guidance from elders. Differences with mentors or father could disturb your peace. Long journeys may face sudden delays. Yet this is a divine test to shift your faith from external authority to inner conviction. Real wisdom comes when scriptures become lived experience, not just words. Chant this powerful mantra 108 times. And when it comes to our diet plan, favor satvik meals like curd, rice, soaked almonds and seasonal fruits. Avoid stimulants like excess tea or coffee that disturb mercury’s restless energy. When it comes to donation, donate books, notebooks, pens, or even Bhagavad Gita to students. Sharing wisdom strengthens your dharma.

Cancer: This eclipse strikes the 8th House of Transformation. Longevity on occult and hidden matters. For cancer natives, emotional upheavals may shake you. Sudden expenses, health scares or deep psychological fears may surface now. But do not panic. This is Rahu’s way of forcing transformation. This is a spiritual initiation. The eighth house is the house of death and rebirth. Not necessarily physical death, but the death of illusions, death of false attachments and death of toxic patterns. If you embrace meditation and surrender, this eclipse can awaken hidden spiritual powers within you. Chant this mantra with deep surrender and follow a diet plan wherein you can fast with fruits and water on eclipse day as it will purify your karmas. And post eclipse, have light vegetable soups, satvik, khichdi and avoid tamasic food. And when it comes to donation, donate white clothes, cotton or milk to the needy. These soothe moon’s disturbed energy.

Leo: The eclipse falls in your seventh house of partnerships, marriage and business ties. Tensions in relationships may arise. Misunderstandings with spouse or partner may occur. Business collaborations may face temporary turbulence. So be aware. This is Rahu’s test. Are you seeking control in relationships or true companionship? The eclipse pushes you to shift from dominance to balance, from ego to understanding. Chant the mantra Om Shukraya Namah. It will soothe your strained relationships. And when it comes to diet plan, include sweet fruits, bananas, mangoes, custard, apple and dairy in your meals. Avoid sour food, alcohol and bitter speech. When it comes to donation, donate white sweets such as sugar or rice to young woman or couples in need. It harmonizes Venus energy.

Virgo: the eclipse casts its shadow on your sixth house of health, service, debts and hidden enemies. You may find old health issues resurfacing, particularly digestive or nervous complaints. Worthless conflicts or hidden enemies may try to disturb your peace. Since the eclipse is happening in your sixth house, you may even get more trouble through black magic attacks. So be aware and maintain a low profile. And in such a scenario, it is possible that debts that you have may feel heavy now. Yet remember, the sixth house is also the house of victory over obstacles. This eclipse is showing you where your weakness lie so that you can rise above them. If you discipline your lifestyle, stay humble and chant regularly, you will transform your struggles into stepping stones. Chant the mantra Om Namo Bhagavate Rudraya. And follow a diet plan where you will eat green vegetables, barley, buttermilk and khichdi. Avoid heavy, oily junk food that aggravates mercury’s anxiety. When it comes to donation, offer green vegetables or medicines to the poor or to a cow shelter.

Libra: For Libra. The eclipse illuminates the fifth house of creativity, intelligence, children and romance. If you are a student, studies may feel blocked. If you are in love, your relationship may go through testing times. Parents may face concerns for their children. The fifth house is also the house of Purva Punya, meaning past life, virtuous deeds. This eclipse may reveal karmic debts from previous lives through your children or through students or romantic connections. Embrace this as an opportunity to grow. Chant the mantra Om Klim Krishnaya Namah. And when it comes to our diet plan, eat sweet fruits, honey, warm milk and nuts. Avoid stale food and excess fast food. When it comes to donation, donate toys, notebooks or food to children in orphanages or underprivileged schools.

Scorpio: This eclipse falls in your fourth house of home, mother, property and emotional peace. Domestic matters may feel disturbed. Conflicts at home, issues with property or emotional heaviness may surface. Relationship with mother may require more compassion and patience. The lesson here is emotional detachment. Scorpio Energy often clings too deeply. And Rahu in your fourth house reminds you home is not just a physical place, it is the peace within your heart. Chant the mantra Om Durgaye Namah. And drink coconut water, fresh milk and eat rice based meals. Avoid tamasic food like non veg meat, alcohol and excess garlic and onion. And when it comes to donation, donate blankets, white clothes or grains to poor women, widows or motherly figures in need.

Sagittarius: The eclipse energizes your third house of communication, courage, siblings and efforts. Misunderstandings with siblings or neighbors may occur. Rash decisions in travel or business may cause stress. Be mindful of your speech. One harsh word could undo years of trust. This is a time to cultivate courage not through aggression, but through calm faith. Channel your energy into mantra, chanting, writing or journaling. Chant the mantra Om Shri Ramaya Namah. And follow a diet plan where you eat more sprouts fruits, barley, roti and khichdi. Avoid excess chili and spices that agitate Jupiter’s wisdom. And when it comes to donation, donate yellow fruits like bananas or books to students. Support your younger siblings if they are struggling. Help them in whatever way it is possible for you.

Capricorn: The eclipse touches your second house of family speech and wealth. Control your tongue during this time, my fellows. Capricorn. Control your tongue. Words may come out harsher than intended, leading to family conflict. Financial worries may weigh heavy upon you, but avoid risky investments during this period. The second house is also the house of values. This eclipse asks you, do you value people above positions or positions above people? Choose wisely and chant the mantra Om Shri Ganeshaya Namah. Chant this mantra with deep devotion. The blessings of Lord Ganesh will help you remain calm and you will be able to control your mind. In a more efficient way. When it comes to our diet plan, take simple satvic meals such as chapati or roti dal vegetables. Avoid alcohol, smoking and heavy rich food. When it comes to donation, donate grains, ghee or food packets to an old age home or a needy family.

Aquarius: this Eclipse this lunar eclipse falls directly on you, my fellow Aquarius as it activates your first house of self, body and destiny. Expect an emotional storm, fatigue, self doubt, health concerns and deep karmic tests. With both Rahu’s shadow and Sade Sati’s weight. This is a karmic constant crossroad for you. But remember, Aquarius is not a sign of despair. It is the sign of revolution, of breaking boundaries. The eclipse is forcing you to shed arrogance, false pride and narrowness. Embrace humility, spirituality and humanity. You are being prepared for a higher destiny. Chant the mantra Om Namah Shivaya. Lord Shiva absorbs karmic burdens and gives new life. So surrender to Lord Shiva and continue chanting this mantra 108 times on the lunar eclipse day as well as two days before the eclipse and two days after the eclipse. And when it comes to your diet plan, fasting with fruits, milk or water on the lunar eclipse day is best for you. Aquarius and post eclipse, take only Satwik vegetarian meals. Avoid non veg for the entire week. That is three days before the eclipse and three days after the eclipse. When it comes to donation, donate black sesame seeds, black blankets or footwear to the poor homeless. Help the oppressed and downtrodden people.

And now comes my all time favorite sign. If you all have been following me, you all know that Pisces is my all time favorite sign. And so for Pisces, the eclipse illuminates your 12th house of sleep, moksha, expenditure and foreign lands. You may feel restless, unable to sleep or emotionally isolated. Expenses may rise unexpectedly. But this is also the house of spiritual awakening. If you surrender, the eclipse will take you inward. This is a golden time for meditation. Mantra chanting and connecting to your inner silence. Do not fear solitude, my fellows. It is your path to moksha. The best mantra remedy for Pisces during the lunar eclipse that is two days before lunar eclipse and two days after lunar eclipse, you should chant this mantra Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya meaning I bow to Vasudeva, the eternal divine refuge. It grants inner peace and spiritual strength. My Fellows, chant this mantra on all the days including the lunar eclipse day. And your diet plan should be wherein you will fast with fruits, coconut water and Satvik vegetarian meals. Avoid indulgence or overeating out of restlessness. And when it comes to donation, donate fruits, bed sheets or help hospitals or some monastery supporting those in isolation will uplift your own karmas.

This lunar eclipse is not a curse, but a cosmic classroom. The shadows it casts are nothing but the reflection of our own karmas. Do not post negativity, do not hurt others, and never discriminate by caste or religion. Aquarius, the sign of humanity, reminds us that in the end, only compassion, humility and surrender to the Divine will carry us across.

Mahatma Gandhi once said, without devotion, action and knowledge is cold and dry. And at times they even become shackles. These words remind me of a profound real life incident from the time when the great spiritual master Akalkot Swami Samartha walked in physical form. There were two Brahmins in those days. Arrogant, swollen with pride, blinded by the false glitter of the thousands of scriptures they had memorized. With hypocrisy in their hearts and vanity in their minds, they set out on a so called victory tour. With the King’s sanction, they roamed village to village, summoning Brahmins, demanding debates on the holy Vedas. Wherever they won, they forced others to issue them a certificate of defeat, inflating their egos further. In time, they reached Kumasi, where Trivikram Bharti, the humble disciple of Akkalkot Swami, resided. With folded hands, he told them, I am a simple monk. I have not mastered the Vedas. For me, victory or defeat is the same. I cannot debate with you. But the Brahmins demanded a certificate. When Trivikram refused, they grew insistent. Finally he suggested, let us go to my Guru. Whatever he says shall be the truth. When they reached, Trivikram prostrated before his guru, narrated the incident and sought his guidance. Sri Guru calmly said, do not be arrogant of your victories. Even the Gods cannot fathom the infinite depths of the Vedas. But the two Brahmins laughed. Believing he was evading debate, they challenged him directly, demanding proof. The master, Sri Guru, simply looked across the street, noticed a humble man from the Dalit community, a community that is considered or was considered during those time as a lower class community. And so he called him near. With compassion, he said, do not fear. Step forward. Seven lines were drawn on the ground. With each line you cross, said the Guru, your past lives shall return to you. And as the man crossed line after line, memories of past births unfolded. As a hunter, as a fisherman, as a merchant, as a warrior, and finally a Brahmin well versed in the Vedas, all these past birth cycles unfolded. And as he crossed line after line, and then finally, the Master sprinkled sacred ash upon him. And in an instant his form transformed. Luminous, radiant. The brilliance of a Brahmin scholar glowing through him. With folded hands, the man began reciting the Vedas fluently. Leaving the two arrogant Brahmins speechless, trembling and stricken with chest pain, their pride collapsed, their false knowledge shattered. Prostrating before the Master, prostrating before the Guru, they begged forgiveness. With infinite compassion, the Guru said, you have mocked the sanctity of the Vedas and misused your birth as Brahmins. Hence, in your next life you shall wander as a Brahmarakshas, that is, as a ghost on the banks of the Ganga until a pious soul redeems you. This incident reveals the eternal truth, my fellows. Caste, wealth, power and status of this birth carry no guarantee for the next birthday. Arrogance in this life leads to downfall in another. I too have witnessed this narrowness in our times. Some condemned me for revering Sai Baba, saying, Sai Baba was a Muslim. How can you praise him? Others taunted me, you are a Brahmin. How can you speak so greatly of the Buddha when it was Brahmins who once opposed him? This is the tragedy of a limited mind, my fellows. These people never rise because they cling to labels and not humanity. And as a result they fall from grace, suffering not only in this life, but also in future birth cycles. But as I always say, I am not here for them. I am here for those few good hearted seekers. The ones making a sincere effort to rise above religious dogmas, caste pride and language barriers. People talk endlessly of spirituality and religion, yet they have not even become human. As the great saint Sridhar Swamy of Alandi used to say, man is still a two legged animal until he makes effort to expand his consciousness.

And how beautiful is this divine synchronicity that the very message we are contemplating now is none other than the message of Aquarius, the sign of humanity, freedom and equality. That is why I have immense respect for the zodiac sign Aquarius. We are living in the Aquarian age. An age that will no longer tolerate narrowness, discrimination of caste, discrimination of religion or language will be uprooted, democracy will refine, society will evolve and humanity will slowly embrace universality. Even great masters have confirmed this, my fellows, Swami Yukteswargiri the Guru of Paramahan’s Yogananda. In his timeless work, the book Holy Science clearly states that Kali Yug is over. We are now in Dwapar Yuga, an age of rising consciousness. The coming decades will only deepen this current. So, my friends, as this lunar eclipse in Aquarius unfolds, let us shred arrogance, drop pride and remember. True spirituality is not in clinging to a caste or creed or language. It is in expanding consciousness. In becoming truly human.

Jai Sri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

September 2025 Predictions | Lunar eclipse | Solar eclipse | Remedies for all 12 signs

Namaste. The month of September is very stormy because there are two eclipses plus Mercury is also falling under the shadow of Rahu and Ketu. So the overall month of September is definitely a challenging month for many of you.

From 22nd June until 30th August, Mercury had been moving through the sensitive waters of Cancer. Now, Cancer is a deeply nurturing and motherly sign. While Mercury by nature is a restless logician, a sharp analyst, a merchant who thrives on calculation and reason. Place this businessman or mathematician in a nursery full of children and you can imagine the discomfort. That is what Mercury feels in Cancer. Those born with Mercury in Cancer often carry a childlike streak. Their words may lack diplomacy. Their logic may appear clouded. Yet in the chart of a woman, this placement takes on a different fragrance. Because Cancer is feminine, Mercury here blesses a woman with tenderness, sensitivity, and motherly warmth. She becomes innocent, receptive and easily moved by the beauty of poetry and dance. Such women radiate purity. They live in a dreamy world that God himself seems to adore. But in this practical, cunning and corrupt world, such women often suffer. Their open trusting hearts become prey to betrayal in love. They love sincerely. They give selflessly and yet they are deceived by men who abandon them leaving them in shock and despair. I personally hold great admiration for a woman with Mercury in Cancer. If you are listening to me and if you have this Mercury Cancer then know this. I can understand you more deeply than anyone else.

Now after 68 days Mercury is ready to leave the sheltering womb of Cancer and march into the dramatic and fiery sign of Leo on 30th August. But here begins the turbulence in Leo. Mercury encounters Ketu Maharaj. And as Rahu transits Aquarius, the sign directly opposite Leo, Mercury falls into the web of Rahu and Ketu. This alignment creates what we call a Buddha gra. Mercury overshadowed, eclipsed and confused in the smoke of illusion. This means the month of September will be filled with drama, chaos, and uncertainty. The financial markets are likely to stumble. A crash could trigger temporary panic and widespread stress. And the intensity only deepens on 7th September when a lunar eclipse in Aquarius eclipses the moon as well. And so both Mercury and the moon falling under the spell of Rahu and Ketu. These celestial patterns are not to be taken lightly.

My fellows, I want to lovingly but firmly alert all my close followers. Stay vigilant in September. Do not take unnecessary risks. Avoid gambling in the stock market or speculating with your assets. This is a month to remain grounded, cautious and prayerful. When we look at the larger picture, India’s economy is already fragile. With the ongoing tariff struggles and uncertain global climate, the shadows of Rahu and Ketu may bring loss of jobs, political unrest and economic strain. The vision of stability may weaken. Opposition parties voices may grow stronger and the ruling powers may find themselves struggling to keep control. The geopolitical stage looks vulnerable and India may face its share of the heat more intensely than many other nations. Even governments are not immune to the shifts of destiny and these transits serve as a celestial warning.

So as we step into September with Mercury, the moon and later even the sun walking into the smoky shadows of Rahu and Ketu, let us carefully observe how this drama in the heavens reflects upon your own life. Based on your moon sign, we will now see what lessons, challenges, and transformations await you in the coming month along with the remedies.

Aries moon sign. Beloved Aries, this September the battlefield lies between your heart and your worldly ambitions. Mercury enters Leo on 30th August only to fall into the smoky shadow of Ketu while Rahu gazes from Aquarius. This creates a tug of war. Your love, your creativity and children on one side and your gains, friendships and ambitions on the other side. On 7th September, the lunar eclipse in Aquarius may bring shocks in friendships or sudden changes in your social circle. And then on the 21st September, the solar eclipse strikes at your heart. Love may test you, children may challenge you, and creativity may feel blocked. But remember, eclipses do not destroy, they only cleanse. What is false will vanish. What is true will shine brighter. And so dear Aries, avoid risky speculation or hasty decisions in money matters and love. Be patient with your children and gentle with your partners. Chant daily the mantra Om Namah Shivaya. This is your anchor through the storm. And to reduce the intensity of this malefic influence, perform donations. Offer green moong dal or green vegetables on Wednesdays to the needy to pacify Mercury and donate black sesame seeds or black cloth on Saturdays to reduce Rahu Ketu afflictions and share food or fruits with young children and students to harmonize the fifth house energy. Always remember what is unreal will fade away and only the real will remain with you.

Taurus. Beloved Taurus, this September the spotlight shifts to your fourth house of home, mother and inner peace and your 10th house of career, reputation and responsibilities. Mercury enters Leo on 30th August in your 4th house where Ketu is already stationed. Opposite to Ketu in your 10th house of Aquarius sits Rahu. This sets the stage for restlessness in your domestic life while your professional world demands more from you. The lunar eclipse on 7th September in your 10th house may bring sudden changes in your career, disturbances in workplace relationships or shifts in leadership. Be careful of office politics and avoid unnecessary conflicts with authority figures. Then on 21st September, the solar eclipse strikes your 4th house, bringing emotional turbulence at home. Matters related to your mother’s health, property or vehicles may come to the forefront. Inner peace may feel disturbed and your heart may feel unsettled. But remember, eclipses are not meant to harm but to awaken. They strip away illusions so that you can find what truly matters. And so Taurus, at work remain calm and detached. Avoid office gossip. At home, listen more, speak less and give love to your family. Chant the mantra Om Rudraya Namah. It will balance your emotions and strengthen your heart. And to reduce the intensity of these planetary influences, perform donations. Offer white rice or milk to the needy on Mondays to pacify the moon. Donate green moong dal on Wednesdays at Ganesh temple or to any poor fellow to receive Mercury’s blessings. And support a poor student with books or notebooks. This harmonizes the fourth and 10th axis of learning and responsibilities. Always remember the storms outside are nothing when the lamp inside you continues to glow.

Gemini. Beloved Gemini, this September the cosmic spotlight falls on your third house of communication, courage and siblings and your 9th house of dharma, father and higher destiny. On 30th August, Mercury enters Leo in your 3rd house where Ketu is already seated. Opposite in your 9th house of Aquarius, Rahu exerts its shadow. This alignment may test your courage, your communication with siblings or neighbors and even your relationship with your father or a mentor. The lunar eclipse on 7th September in Aquarius can create sudden disagreements with teachers, spiritual guides or authority in religion and law. Be cautious in your words as even a small argument can magnify. And then on 21st September, the solar eclipse may impact your confidence, your speech, and your ability to take bold steps. Siblings too may bring sudden concerns. You may feel restless, doubting your own decisions. But remember, the eclipse hides only the light. It can never destroy the light. After the shadow passes, clarity returns brighter than before. And so, dear Gemini, avoid unnecessary debates with siblings, teachers or fatherly figures. Travel plans may get disrupted. So be flexible. Chant daily Om Shri Ganeshaya Namah. By chanting this mantra, you will feel calm. You will be able to calm your restless mind and restore courage. To reduce the intensity of these planetary afflictions, perform donations. Offer green vegetables or moong dal on Wednesdays to strengthen Mercury. Donate yellow fruits like bananas on Thursdays to balance the 9th house energy of Guru and support the education of a child. This aligns your karmic balance with the 3rd house and 9th house axis. And always remember your true power lies not in words but in the silence that guides your words.

Cancer. Beloved Cancer, this September the cosmic spotlight falls on your second house of wealth, speech and family and your 8th house of hidden changes, fears and transformation. On 30th August, Mercury moves into Leo in your second house where Ketu already resides. Opposite in Aquarius, Rahu shadows your 8th house. This brings sudden ups and downs in wealth, family matters and speech. Guard your words for they may easily be misunderstood. The lunar eclipse on 7th September in your 8th house may stir hidden fears, health issues or sudden financial concerns. Unexpected expenses or family disputes may surface. And then on 21st September, the solar eclipse impacts your communication, speech, food intake, and family harmony. You may feel unheard or emotionally disconnected at home. But remember, the eclipses never destroy. They only reveal. They uncover hidden truths so that real healing can begin. And so, dear Cancer, avoid harsh words. Speak gently for your speech is powerful. Be careful with food and finances. Keep life simple and pure this month. Chant the mantra Om Shreem Mahalakshmi Namah. It will soothe your heart and bring stability to your family life. And to reduce the intensity of these shadows, perform donations. Offer white rice, milk or sugar on Mondays to pacify the moon. Donate green moong dal or green vegetables on Wednesdays for Mercury’s grace. Feed poor children or donate food grains. This will balance the 2nd and 8th house karmas. Always remember true wealth is not what you hold but in what you give with love.

Leo. Beloved Leo, this September the eclipses shine directly upon you. The drama unfolds in your first house of self, health and identity and your 7th house of relationships, marriage and partnerships. On 30th August, Mercury enters your sign Leo in the first house where Ketu already sits. Opposite in Aquarius, Rahu shadows your 7th house. This axis will test both your inner strength and your relationships. The lunar eclipse on 7th September in Aquarius may bring sudden turbulence in partnerships be it marriage or business ties. Hidden truths may surface and relationships may feel unstable. Then on 21st September the solar eclipse strikes your very being. Your health, your self-confidence and clarity may feel shaken. This is a time of inner transformation. A time when the ego is eclipsed so that the soul may awaken. But remember an eclipse does not take away your light. It only reminds you that your true light is beyond body and mind. And so, dear Leo, take care of your health, rest well, eat mindfully and stay grounded. Avoid conflicts in relationships. Patience is your true strength. Chant daily Om Namah Shivaya. This mantra will protect your aura and your inner vitality. And to reduce the intensity of these planetary shadows, perform donations, offer wheat, jaggery or red cloth on Sundays to the needy to harmonize the sun. Donate green moong dal on Wednesdays for Mercury’s blessings and help the poor or sick with medicines or health support. This strengthens your first and 7th house balance. And always remember the shadow may fall on you but the shadow is not you. Your true self is untouchable.

Virgo. Beloved Virgo, this September the shadow falls on your 12th house of sleep, expenses and foreign connections and your sixth house of work, health and enemies. On 30th August, Mercury enters Leo in your 12th house joining Ketu. Opposite in Aquarius, Rahu casts his influence over your sixth house. This brings challenges in health, workplace matters and financial expenses. Sleep patterns may get disturbed and hidden fears may rise to the surface. The lunar eclipse on 7th September in Aquarius could bring sudden issues in daily work, disputes with colleagues or health related concerns. Then on 21st September, the solar eclipse in Leo strikes your 12th house bringing expenses, hidden worries and emotional restlessness. Foreign connections or travel plans may also face unexpected obstacles. But remember the 12th house is also the house of liberation. When the shadow falls here, it is an invitation to look within and grow spiritually. And so dear Virgo, prioritize your health, avoid overwork, eat light and meditate daily. Be cautious with loans, debts and unnecessary expenses and chant daily Om Namo Narayanaya. This will bring healing to your mind and body. And to reduce the intensity of these planetary shadows, perform donations. Offer green moong dal or green vegetables on Wednesdays to strengthen Mercury. Donate black sesame seeds or black cloth on Saturdays to reduce Rahu Ketu affliction and support hospitals, old age homes or those who are sick. This harmonizes the sixth and 12th house karmas. Always remember when the outer world feels heavy, the inner world can still be light. True peace is always within you.

Libra. Beloved Libra, this September the shadows stretch across your 11th house of gains, networks and friendships and your fifth house of love, children and creativity. On 30th August, Mercury enters Leo in your 11th house where Ketu already sits. Opposite in Aquarius, Rahu stirs your fifth house. This planetary tug of war touches both your ambitions and your heart. Gains may come but not without confusion. Friendships may feel unreliable and love life may feel tested. The lunar eclipse on 7th September may stir emotional turbulence in romance. Sudden challenges related to children or creative blocks. Then on 21st September the solar eclipse strikes and it impacts your social circle. Your social circles may bring disappointment, ambitions may get delayed or friendships may reveal hidden truths. But remember, an eclipse only removes the unreal so that the real can shine through. Dear Libra, avoid risky financial decisions or speculative investments. Don’t depend too much on friends. Trust your own inner strength. Chant daily Om Namah Shivaya. It will give clarity and protection to you. And to reduce the intensity of these planetary shadows, perform donations. Offer white sweets or rice on Fridays to balance Venus. Donate green vegetables or moong dal on Wednesdays to pacify Mercury. Feed children or support their education. This will harmonize your fifth and 11th house karmas. Always remember true joy is never in the applause of the crowd but in the purity of your own heart.

Scorpio. Beloved Scorpio, this September the shadow falls across your 10th house of career, karma and recognition and your fourth house of home, mother and emotional peace. On 30th August, Mercury enters Leo in your 10th house where Ketu already resides. Opposite in Aquarius, Rahu shadows your fourth house. This brings tension between career demands and inner peace. You may feel pulled between worldly duties and family matters. The lunar eclipse on 7th September in Aquarius may disturb domestic life, property issues or your mother’s health. Inner restlessness could rise now. Then on 21st September, the solar eclipse impacts your career, reputation and your public image. Sudden changes in profession, authority clashes or unexpected shifts in direction is possible during that time. But remember, eclipses are not punishments. They are cosmic resets. They clear the stage for your true destiny. And so, dear Scorpio, avoid confrontations at work. Patience will save your energy. Care for your mother and home. Give time to emotional healing. Chant daily Om Rudraya Namah. It will anchor your heart in the middle of change. To reduce the intensity of this planetary shadows perform donations. Offer milk, rice or white sweets on Mondays for peace at home. Donate green moong dal on Wednesdays to strengthen Mercury. Help a student or donate books. This balances your fourth and 10th house karmas. Always remember the world may test your outer strength. But your true power is the stillness within you.

Sagittarius. Beloved Sagittarius, this September the shadow stretches across your 9th house of dharma, father and higher wisdom and your third house of courage, communication and siblings. On 30th August, Mercury enters Leo in your 9th house where Ketu is already seated. Opposite in Aquarius, Rahu casts its influence over your third house. This may create tensions with siblings, restless communication or sudden doubts in your faith and belief system. The lunar eclipse on 7th September in Aquarius may trigger misunderstandings with siblings, obstacles in travel or unexpected news through communication. Then on 21st September the solar eclipse strikes and then you may face challenges with fatherly figures, mentors or gurus. You may feel spiritually disconnected or confused about your direction in life. But remember when the eclipse hides the light it is asking you to find the eternal flame within. And so dear Sagittarius, avoid heated debates with teachers, father or mentors. Be cautious in communication. Words once spoken cannot be taken back. Chant daily Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya. This will bring wisdom and clarity to your restless mind. To reduce the intensity of these planetary shadows perform donations. Offer yellow fruits or turmeric on Thursdays to honor Guru’s energy. Donate green vegetables or moong dal on Wednesdays for Mercury’s blessings. Support students or donate to educational institutions. This will harmonize your 3rd and 9th house karmas. Always remember true faith is not in rituals but in the silent trust of your own heart.

Capricorn. Beloved Capricorn, this September the shadows fall across your 8th house of transformation hidden fears and sudden events and your second house of wealth, speech and family. On 30th August, Mercury enters Leo in your 8th house where Ketu already resides. Opposite in Aquarius, Rahu shadows your second house. This planetary pull may disturb wealth matters, family harmony and the clarity of your speech. Sudden expenses or hidden issues may come to light. The lunar eclipse on 7th September in Aquarius may bring financial instability, family disagreements or stress over accumulated wealth. And on 21st September, the solar eclipse in Leo strikes and that leads to deep fears, sudden changes or health concerns. It may feel as though the ground is shifting beneath you, forcing you into transformation. But remember, the 8th house is the house of rebirth. What falls away now is only making space for your renewal. And so, dear Capricorn, avoid risky financial dealings or lending money this month to anyone. Stay calm in family disputes. Silence will be your greatest strength and chant daily Om Namah Shivaya. It will burn away fears and anchor your mind. And to reduce the intensity of these planetary shadows perform donations. Offer black sesame seeds or black cloth on Saturdays to pacify Ketu Rahu. Donate green moong dal or vegetables on Wednesdays to harmonize Mercury and share food with poor families as this will balance your 2nd and 8th house karmas. Always remember when life takes something away, it is only preparing you for a greater gift hidden in the unseen.

Aquarius. Beloved Aquarius, this September the shadows move directly across your 7th house of relationships, marriage and partnerships and your first house of self, health and identity. On 30th August, Mercury enters Leo in your 7th house where Ketu is already seated. And opposite to Leo that is in your sign Aquarius, Rahu exerts its restless influence. This alignment may test your closest bonds, marriage, partnerships and commitments. The lunar eclipse on 7th September in Aquarius strikes your very being. You may feel restless, misunderstood or pulled in many directions. Health and peace of mind may need attention. And then on 21st September, the solar eclipse brings turbulence in marriage, business partnerships or close associations. Relationships may feel unstable. Hidden truths may surface now and misunderstandings may disturb harmony in relationships. But remember an eclipse can shake the false bonds but it cannot touch what is true. And so dear Aquarius be patient in marriage and partnerships. Avoid unnecessary conflicts. Take care of your health and remain steady in your spiritual practices. Chant daily Om Namah Shivaya. It will protect both your heart and your relationships. And to reduce the intensity of these planetary shadows, perform donations. Offer black sesame seeds or black cloth on Saturdays to pacify Rahu and Ketu. Donate green moong dal on Wednesdays to strengthen Mercury’s blessings. Give food or essentials to couples in need. This will balance your first and 7th house karmas. Always remember relationships built on illusion will fade, but those born from truth will only grow stronger.

Pisces. Beloved Pisces, this September the shadows stretch across your sixth house of health, service and enemies and your 12th house of sleep, expenses and liberation. On 30th August, Mercury enters Leo in your 6th house where Ketu already resides. Opposite in Aquarius, Rahu casts its influence on your 12th house. This may stir issues with health, debts or hidden enemies while also bringing restlessness in sleep, sudden expenses or foreign matters. The lunar eclipse on 7th September in Aquarius may bring unexpected financial outflow, disturbed sleep or feelings of isolation. The solar eclipse on 21st September will lead to work stress. Health may need special care and misunderstandings with colleagues or subordinates may surface. But remember the sixth and 12th are houses of purification. Eclipses here are not punishments. They are opportunities to burn karmas and rise higher. And so dear Pisces, take care of your health. Avoid unnecessary stress or overwork. Stay cautious with loans or debts. Chant daily Om Gam Ganapataye Namaha. Chant this Ganesha mantra. It will protect your body, mind and spirit. To reduce the intensity of these planetary shadows, perform donations. Offer white rice, milk or sugar on Mondays for peace of mind. Donate green moong dal on Wednesdays to pacify Mercury. Support hospitals, the poor or the sick. This harmonizes the sixth and 12th house karmas. And always remember when outer life feels heavy, the inner light is still untouched. Anchor yourself there and nothing can shake you.

And so the month of September arrives wrapped in shadows, a month highly vulnerable to negative energy attacks, sudden shifts, and karmic turbulence. This is not the time to take risk or jump into major decisions. Instead, remain vigilant, walk slowly, and allow the storm to pass. September is like a litmus test, a test of patience, awareness, and inner strength. If you can sail through this storm with faith and balance, then the month of October will greet you with rewards, relief, and moments of joy. But remember only those good-hearted souls who raise their awareness, practice the suggested remedies and focus on selfless karma will find the strength to cross this chaotic month unharmed.

The larger world too reflects this turbulence. With the Indian economy already weakened by tariff wars and the rapid rise of AI reshaping industries, the possibility of more job layoffs and business closures in the next 6 months cannot be ignored. Eclipses are the harbingers of change and transformation and transformation is never easy. Economies heavily tied to the leading powers of the world will feel the tremors even more deeply. Political instability, economic downturns, job loss, unemployment, and even environmental disasters, all these waves may rise in the coming time. And yet within every destruction lies the seed of a new creation. Every ending clears the stage for a new beginning, a new chapter, a new destiny to unfold.

So do not grieve over what leaves you during this time. Instead, trust that every loss now is only guiding you towards a greater breakthrough. The universe never takes without giving something higher in return. Stay alert, stay prayerful and especially if you are under the grip of a difficult Mahadasha of Rahu or Ketu Mahadasha, be even more mindful of your thoughts and actions. September may test you with storms, but storms are not meant to drown you. They are meant to cleanse you. And always remember the only way to overcome the greatest storms of life is through surrender. Surrender to the Almighty. Surrender to your Guru. Surrender to existence itself. Total surrender does not happen in a day. It is a journey. Slowly slowly through consistent spiritual practice, through consistent mantra chanting, through consistent daily meditation and humility you arrive at the doorstep of surrender. And once you live in surrender, life is no longer your burden. God takes over. And when God takes over, you are safe. You are carried. You are protected. You are free.

So my dear ones, hold tight and stay vigilant. Remember during the period of eclipses, negative energies and black magic attacks often intensify. Many things may seem at stake, but if you truly believe in yourself, you will sail safely through the stormy month of September. Always remember you cannot believe in God until you believe in yourself. Growth is always from the inside out. No one can hand it to you. No one can make you spiritual. No one can awaken you except your own soul. Your soul is your greatest teacher. The greatest sin is not to fail but to think that you are weak. You are not weak. You are powerful. You are divine. You are a child of God. And when you stop resisting, when you let God take the wheel of your life, miracles unfold. He can do with your life what you alone cannot even imagine.

The entire message of this month, of these storms, of these eclipses rests in a single word. Surrender. If this message touches your heart, if you can resonate with its depth, then my friend, you have nothing to fear. You will be all right.

Jai Sri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Understanding Mental Health Through Medical Astrology

Namaste. In medical astrology, there are certain aspects, conjunctions, Nakshatras and houses that signify mental issues. Issues such as anxiety, depression, frustration, overthinking, fear factor. All these things derive from specific astrological combinations. But the larger question is that why are you suffering? Why are you going through such mental difficulties? And what is the solution? In this podcast I have covered each of these points. So let’s begin with this second episode of medical Astrology.

In medical astrology, the Moon and Mercury play a significant role in influencing mental health. While these two prominent planets directly affect emotional well being and cognitive processes, the zodiac signs they occupy, particularly the watery and airy signs, also significantly shape mental stability. Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, the water signs, are deeply connected with emotions. These signs govern the internal emotional world and can profoundly impact how we process feelings and moods. On the other hand, the air signs, Gemini, Libra and Aquarius, are strongly linked to intellectual functions shaping our thinking, communication and reasoning patterns. In simple words, water signs influence the emotional state of your mind, while air signs shape the brain’s thought processes. When malefic planets such as Rahu, Mars or Saturn are positioned in either of these signs, or if Mercury or the Moon are afflicted by these planets, mental health challenges like anxiety, depression, fear and excessive overthinking often arise.

Let us understand the role of Nakshatras in mental health. The second dimension of mental health in astrology involves Nakshatras or lunar constellations. Nakshatras within the air signs such as Mruga, Adra, Chitra, Swati, Shatabhisha and Purva Bhadrapad are directly connected to mental health issues manifesting as restlessness, overthinking, emotional instability and stress. In the water signs, Nakshatras like Ashlesha, Anuradha, Jayishta, Revati and Uttarabhadrapad also have a significant influence on mental well being. These Nakshatras can trigger emotional intensity, sensitivity and psychological struggles, often leading to mental distress if not handled with care.

Let us understand the significance of houses in mental health. The third dimension of mental health in medical astrology is the houses. Among the 12 astrological houses, the fourth house is crucial because it directly governs your emotional happiness and mental state. The fourth house is ruled by Cancer, a water sign, making it highly sensitive to the presence of malefic planets like Rahu or Saturn. When such planets occupy the fourth house, individuals may experience anxiety, fear, overthinking, and confusion. They may struggle to make clear decisions and often require support and guidance from those with more experience. Next, the eighth house plays a role in the psychology of an individual. Any malefic influence in the eighth house can lead to psychological issues, including intense inner turmoil or trauma. Similarly, the 12th house, associated with the supernatural and unseen dreams, can lead to mental disturbances, especially when affected by Rahu. Individuals with Rahu in the 12th house may experience attacks from negative energies, black magic, or other external influences that impact their mental health. Finally, the sixth house is significant as it deals with hidden enemies, conspiracies, and even struggles with authority figures like the state or the government. Malefic influences in this house can result in situations where one can become a target of external harm, whether through deception, sabotage, or other forms of psychological stress.

Now let us understand the role of Mahadasha periods. The Mahadasha period, that is the planetary period a person is undergoing, can also significantly affect mental health. If an individual is experiencing malefic influences on Mercury or the Moon or key Nakshatras in water and air signs, they may go through difficult times battling emotional and psychological challenges until the Mahadasha comes to an end. Now let us take some examples of mental health indicators. Some of the common astrological combinations that indicate mental health issues include Moon and Rahu conjunctions in the 8th, 4th, or 12th house or afflictions to the rulers of signs occupied by the Moon and Rahu. The second is Moon Saturn, Moon Venus, Moon Sun, Moon Uranus, and Moon Pluto. These conjunctions, especially when they are afflicted in water or air sign Nakshatras, can cause emotional disturbances, anxiety, or mental exhaustion. Even when the Moon is combust and Mercury is retrograde, the person can go through certain mental issues.

Yesterday, Mohan asked an insightful question. Why do these mental health issues occur? What is the solution? The answer lies in the karmic patterns of both the individual and their family. Mental health challenges often stem from the combined past karma of one’s own life and their family’s history, particularly the karma of the father, the mother, the grandparents, and siblings. This interconnectedness shapes the individual’s emotional and psychological state. In ancient times, marriage arrangements took family backgrounds into account to ensure compatibility and the best possible outcome for both partners. The rise of love marriages marked a rebellion against this tradition. However, in modern times, love marriages have also resulted in a significant rise in divorces, showing that family influence still plays a critical role in marriages. Thus, your current mental state is shaped by the cumulative karma from your own past life, as well as the collective karma of your family.

To overcome the negative karmic patterns, you must focus on healing through practices like consistent mantra chanting, donations, charity, and emotional self control. The most crucial step is controlling your reactions. Even the wisest person may react impulsively at times, which can lead to negative karmic results. Let me share a small example with you. A wise young man, extremely hungry, ordered veg fried rice at a restaurant. When his food arrived, it was veg Singapore rice, a mistake he hadn’t ordered. Naturally, he lost his temper. Later, he regretted his reaction and realized that his anger had caused more harm than the mistake itself. Instead of reacting harshly, he could have calmly said, it’s okay, please bring me the correct order. By reacting with patience and composure, he would have turned the situation into an opportunity to demonstrate wisdom and grace. This example serves as a reminder for all of us. How we react to others, especially when wronged, matters a lot in shaping our emotional and mental well being. This is something I am personally working on and I encourage all my followers to focus on improving how they respond to life’s challenges and the people around them. By changing our reactions we can break the cycle of negative karma and promote better mental health and overall well being.

Remedies in astrology help you improve your present karma, known as Kriyaman Karma. For instance, if you took somebody’s food in a past life, this life you can balance out that negative karma by donating food to those in need. Similarly, those who are experiencing a miserable married life may have wronged married couples in a past life, which results in the struggles and challenges they face in this life. And for those who never marry or who are never able to find a marriage partner, it’s often because of curses from past life behavior towards their spouse. In simple terms, what you are going through now is a direct consequence of your past actions and you must face and resolve it. If you try to escape, your next life may bring even more intense challenges than what you are experiencing now.

With that in mind, I’ll share some simple remedies that can help you overcome mental health challenges and karmic obstacles. The first remedy is to worship Lord Shiva. Every Monday chant Om Namah Shivaya, Om Namah Shivaya, Om Namah Shivaya, to invoke Lord Shiva’s blessings and support in clearing negative karma and bringing peace to your mind. The second remedy is avoid non veg food. Shift to a vegetarian diet to improve your mental clarity. If you live in a cold climate, eating eggs or seafood can be an exception. Maintain a healthy sex life. A balanced and healthy sex life is essential for mental health. Rather than suppressing your sexual desires, express them in a respectful, healthy manner to keep your mental state stable. The fourth remedy is daily chanting and giving. Every morning and evening, chant this beautiful mantra, Om Ram Ramaya Namah, Om Ram Ramaya Namah, Om Ram Ramaya Namah. In addition, donate 1250 grams of jaggery, sugar and rice to someone in need or you can donate them at Ram Temple. This act of kindness will uplift your mental well being. And the next important remedy is visit Kalabhairav temple on Sundays. Go to the Kalabhairav temple and offer one coconut, five lemons, 250 grams of laddu and one garland. While at the temple, sit for 20 minutes in silence and chant Om Kala Bhairavaya Namah, Om Kala Bhairavaya Namah, Om Kala Bhairavaya Namah. This ritual will help release mental blockages and bring peace.

It is important to note that these remedies won’t instantly eliminate your mental struggles. Instead, they will help you face and eventually overcome them. Think of it like a loan repayment. If you owe one crore rupees, the amount will not magically reduce. But through these practices, you will find ways to pay off that debt and ultimately achieve liberation from the karmic burdens holding you back. Always remember, consistency is the key. Regular spiritual practices are essential to navigate through life’s challenges. Dedicate 10 minutes daily to meditation and 10 minutes to mantra chanting. This will help you maintain mental stability and patience, allowing you to sail smoothly through life’s ups and downs. Always remember, nothing lasts forever. Life is in constant flux and planets are always shifting positions. Just like how a prime minister or president’s respect changes over time, you too will face phases where today’s challenges will eventually fade and new opportunities will arise. Today’s hero may be forgotten tomorrow and today’s hero could become a hero in the future. Life is always changing, so don’t give up. When you face difficult situations, stay grounded because change is inevitable. With that, I’ll conclude for now. I’ll be back soon with yet another new episode on medical astrology to explore a fresh topic. Enough for now.

Jai Sri Ganesha Jai Guru.

How Moon in Purva Bhadrapad Nakshatra Shapes Your Emotions?

Moon in Purva Bhadrapad Nakshatra

Moon in Purva Bhadrapad simply is a sign that there is a great potential to progress on the spiritual path — provided the native is an evolving soul.

An evolving soul means a soul that is on the spiritual path.
An evolved soul means a soul that has been on the spiritual journey for many, many past births — he or she has spent much of their energy and life in deep penance and in seeking the ultimate truth.

Moon in Purva Bhadrapad works wonders especially when it comes to spirituality and wisdom.

Sanatan Dharma and Purushartha

The Sanatan Dharma — meaning the Eternal Dharma, the Eternal Religion, the Eternal Order of ancient India — had therefore emphasized on Purushartha.

Purushartha literally means object of human pursuit. It refers to the four proper goals of human life:

  1. Dharma – being righteous.
  2. Artha – earning money.
  3. Kama – enjoying sexual pleasures.
  4. Moksha – attaining liberation.

People who are not comfortable to listen or talk about sex have real serious problems with their sexuality. Such men and women should learn to accept the fact that sex is one of the four goals of life — the Purusharthas of Sanatan Dharma.

Moon in Air Signs

Moon in Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius is always good for material progress because such a Moon is more focused on attaining fame, expanding social networks, and — considering today’s networking age — such a Moon becomes an asset, provided Saturn is well placed in the birth chart.

The most striking quality of Aquarius is being vocal about issues that matter. And when Moon is in Purva Bhadrapad, the native is indeed very vocal and would never suffer silently but would voice out his or her concerns to the world.

One fine example is the famous revolutionary priest and American social civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr.

One of his famous quotes:

“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.”

Another example is Hillary Clinton, also born with Moon in Purva Bhadrapad Nakshatra. She indeed has been a voice for millions of women across the US.

One of her famous quotes:

“We need to understand that there is no formula for how women should lead their lives. That is why we must respect the choices that each woman makes for herself and her family. Every woman deserves the chance to realize her God-given potential.”

Signs of Imagination and Communication

Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius are signs of imagination, intellectualism, and communication. Many great poets and authors are born with Moon in Purva Bhadrapad in these signs.

  • In Gemini, Moon wants to communicate, interact, and impress.
  • In Libra, Moon wants to make deals and form relationships.
  • In Aquarius, Moon wants to make benefits from the deals and relationships that he or she has so cleverly nurtured.

Aquarius Moon definitely is focused on enjoying the benefits and perks — generally making one rich and famous if Saturn, Jupiter, Mercury, and Venus are strong in the birth chart.

When it comes to relationships, Moon in Purva Bhadrapad Aquarius can lead to many challenges.

It is possible that six months ago you may see a man and a woman in each other’s arms, and six months later you may see the same man and woman trying to cut each other’s throats.

There are many such “love marriages” that have turned into “hate marriages” and landed in court.

Relationship is always demanding.
But relating is never demanding.

Relating means: I relate with you, you relate with me. There is no obligation, no dependency. As long as you relate, you can be good friends. The moment you no longer relate, you can choose your ways apart.

Relating therefore is beautiful.

If you love a woman, if you love a man, then first see if you relate. Because as long as you relate, you will be good friends. And in love, friendship is very important.

Love may fade away after your first few honeymoon nights, but friendship will remain.

Buddha on Friendship

Buddha never told people to love each other. He talked about friendship.

Ananda once asked Buddha why he did not call it love.

Buddha said:

Friendship is deeper than love. Love can end, but friendship never ends. Love binds, but friendship gives freedom. Love can enslave, it can possess, it can become a master. Friendship does not become a master, it does not hold anyone back, it does not imprison. Friendship frees you.

Moon in Purva Bhadrapad understands this essence of friendship. Being a highly humanistic, socializing, and understanding sign, Aquarius qualities are more visible with Moon in Purva Bhadrapad.

The sacred tree for Purva Bhadrapad is the Neem tree.

  • Watering, gardening, nurturing the Neem tree refines the good qualities of Moon in Purva Bhadrapad.
  • Even eating two leaves of Neem every day will help improve health.

Purva Bhadrapad is the peak of Sri Guru’s wisdom.

And so I humbly prostrate before the wise, divine Purva Bhadrapad Nakshatra.
May its blessings continue to shower on me and on all my close followers.

The whole message of Purva Bhadrapad is:

  • Do not try to perceive this world through reason or logic.
  • God and this world can only be attained when you start moving beyond logic, towards the heart.

For the heart knows the way. God dwells in your heart. And the language of the heart cannot be known through reason — it can only be felt when you stop thinking and start feeling.

As Guru Nanak beautifully said:

One cannot comprehend Him through reason, even if one reasoned for ages.

And so, only a man of heart can truly feel and understand the language of Buddha, Krishna, Jesus, and Guru Nanak.

The Master is in search of such men and women who follow their heart — who don’t run by their legs but who run by their heart.

Rahu’s Impact on Human Birth: Unveiling Its Astrological Importance

When I was staying in the US, whenever I would switch on the news channels, there was more news coverage about Pakistan than India. You see, the one that creates more noise, more troubles, more pain has the maximum focus.

And that is how Rahu has been the foremost popular subject of the masses. Because what pains the most needs more attention than the one who is making no noise, no trouble, no problems.

Fear has more following than faith. Fear sells faster than faith. That is the reality of human life, and it has been from the very beginning of time. Fear is the most basic emotion we have. Fear is primal. Fear sells until you stop buying it.

Rahu is that fear. And so Rahu is the most in-demand entity of all planets that you have in your birth chart.

The Rahu–Ketu Axis

On a deeper level, it is the Rahu–Ketu axis that has much to say, more than that of the rest of the planets. You may have the best Raja Yogas, and just a malefic touch of Rahu or Ketu, and all the so-called Raja Yogas evaporate.

Somebody asked: how come Rahu becomes so important, so decisive, so powerful in deciding the course of life?

For that you have to understand Rahu. And to understand Rahu, you have to go beyond the mind. As long as you are following your mind, you may talk, you may read millions and millions of astrology books, and yet you will never self-realize what Rahu is all about.

Do not listen to the voice of the mind. Listen to the voice of the heart.

Mind vs. Heart

The mind wavers. The heart does not.
The mind is the home of doubts, reasoning, and theories.
The heart, when purified, becomes the dwelling of the Beloved.

Rid your heart of low desires, malice, selfishness, and God will manifest in you as your true Self, says Avatar Meher Baba.

A Rahu man or woman never understands this. They become the mind, they follow their mind. And it is this mind that leads them to many miseries, problems, and troubles. And yet they never realize until the last moment of their life. They simply keep following their mind. And the mind never lets them rest in peace.

Do you know why? Because the nature of the mind is in itself of being restless. The more you follow your mind, the more you become restless.

But ignorance never lets you realize this truth. And this ignorance is Rahu.

Rahu is that smoke which never lets you see through the heart, but always compels you to see through the mind. And that is where you go on missing the many wonderful truths of life.

Rahu and Desire

Why does Rahu become so important in the affairs of human beings?

Your existence, your birth in this human form, is because of Rahu.

Rahu is your desire. You are born in human form to satisfy your desires. Desire is what brings you back in the physical form. And so it is not Jupiter, not Venus, not Moon, not Mars, not Saturn — but solely Rahu that leads you to human birth.

This human birth then goes on satisfying the many desires, the unfinished businesses. Rahu is the one who drives every human being towards satisfying desires that simply never end.

And so, Rahu’s desires become the enemy of your self-growth. But ironically, people don’t get it. And so they just keep running behind their desires, thinking that once they get a Mercedes, they can slow down Rahu, the desire.

But that never happens. After one Mercedes, you want to have one more BMW, and then more and more and more. This is how Rahu is “more.”

And it is this desire for more and more that leads you to the acts of sin.

And the greatest irony is that, because you are following your mind, you just never realize this. You are so much engaged in accumulating more and more and more…

Jai Shri Ganesha, Jai Guru.

The Hidden Role of Retrograde Planets in Your Birth Chart!

Retrogression means going against the normal way of life.

Why are certain men and women born with retrograde planets? Because during their past births and rebirths they had gone against the flow of life. They rebelled. And the more you rebel, the more you come back in this human world with retrograde planets — signifying that now you must stop rebelling and start flowing with life.

How deep is this, my fellows? Only a few can relate with this beautiful revelation of retrogression in astrology.

Never rebel. Instead, learn to accept and go with the flow of life. Those who have gone with the flow of life in their past births come with planets that are not retrograde.

A wise man simply flows like a river, by living his life in suchness, in total acceptance. Retrogression in your birth chart is a sign that you never lived your past life in total acceptance. And so now you have arrived again on this planet. Existence has given you one more opportunity. If you learn, it is good. If you repeat the same mistake, it is your fate.

Always remember, life repeats itself mindlessly unless you become mindful. It will go on repeating like a wheel.

Dealing with Negativity

There will be many people around you — in your family, in your office, on social platforms — who will give you many suggestions that you never asked for. You see, all kinds of weird people exist in this vast human world. And so you have to learn to overlook such toxic men and women and their comments.

The best way to give such people a befitting reply is by not reacting to their messages and comments. Always remember, the art of being wise is the art of knowing what to overlook.

There are always people out there who just continue to hurt you. But you should simply ignore and let go.

Remember: a wise person never falls prey to others’ reactions. He simply lets go.

Gautam Buddha says: “When you let go, you create space for better things to enter your life.”

Toxic people will always try to pull you down. But with awareness, with your consciousness, you should not fall to their games. You should simply let go.

  • If you let go a little, you will have a little happiness.
  • If you let go a lot, you will have a lot of happiness.
  • And if you let go completely, you will be free.

Self-Realization and Awareness

I always tell my close followers: if a person says to you that you are a beggar, and if you are perfectly aware that you have $1 million in your bank account, then does it make any difference if anybody calls you a beggar? Tell me.

Similar is the case with your inner growth. If someone abuses you, labels you as an idiot, does it make any difference when you have experienced yourself — the Buddha consciousness?

And so, my fellows, believe in yourself. Realize yourself. And then you will not have to depend on the opinions of others.

The greatest fear in the world is of the opinions of others. 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.

There is a lion in each one of you. And do you know who this lion is? It is yourself. Focus on yourself, realize yourself.

And you will be able to realize yourself only when you take to meditation, only when you start chanting, and only when you remain grateful to every person who has helped you in some way or the other.

There are many monks and nuns and people who do all kinds of chanting and meditations, but still only a few become Buddhas.

Why? Because only few people in this vast human world are grateful. Only a few show gratitude.

I am in love with all those who are grateful by heart. The Master loves a grateful heart. A thankful person is a person worth connecting with.

And you all will be surprised to know that in this human world, thankful people are in minority. Ungrateful people are in majority.

Jai Shri Ganesha, Jai Guru.

Is Your Chair Helping or Hurting Your Career? Discover the Secret of Color in Your Professional Life

Namaste.

Many a time it happens that you wonder, when you want to buy a new chair, what color that chair should be as per astrology. Which color will suit you when it comes to buying a chair?

As you can see, this is a gray chair. The chair I’m sitting on is a black chair. Then there are red chairs, brown chairs, and green chairs. So which color chair is suitable for your career, for your profession?

And many a time it happens that you are using a specific chair and after a couple of years, it starts making noise. Whenever you move the chair, it makes noise like this. This indication is not good. You should always maintain your chair because your chair is directly connected to your career — to your 10th house, to your 6th house, and to your 2nd house.

This triangle, 2-6-10 is directly connected with your chair. The work that you do, the beautiful work, the great work that you do at your office is only possible when you have a good chair.

How Chair Colors Affect Careers

Red (Shades of Red) – The Magnet for Conflict
While red symbolizes passion and energy, in a professional setting it can stir unnecessary aggression, power struggles, and frequent clashes with colleagues or competitors. If your work involves diplomacy, leadership or harmony, it’s better to steer clear of red unless you are ready to face constant challenges and opposition in your career.

Black – The Seat of Power
A black chair radiates authority, control, and resilience. If you are in a leadership role or aspire to climb the ladder of power, this is your throne. Even when adversaries try to shake your position, you will find yourself firmly rooted. Black empowers you to command respect and hold your ground with unwavering confidence.

White – The Neutral Zone
A pure white chair is more about peace than progress. It neither invites good fortune nor repels it. Ideal for someone seeking calmness, introspection, or retirement from ambition — but not for someone actively chasing goals or aiming for rapid success.

Gray – The Master of Persuasion
Gray chairs are a secret weapon for professionals in sales, media, or public relations. If your job requires you to influence, market, or communicate effectively, gray helps you think clearly, balance opinions, and win hearts without being too assertive. A smart choice for public figures or social media enthusiasts.

Green – The Color of Chaos
Although green represents growth and creativity, in the office it may lead to overthinking and emotional imbalance. It can bring bouts of restlessness and inconsistency, traits not welcome in high-performance executive roles. Avoid green if you are aiming for clarity, structure, and stability.

Brown – The Business Booster
Earthy, grounded, and practical. Brown is the perfect color for entrepreneurs and professionals seeking material success. It enhances focus, discipline, and commercial instincts. However, while brown supports consistency and routine, it can also drain spontaneity, making life feel monotonous and overly materialistic.

Choose the right color for your chair based on what exactly you are seeking. Your chair isn’t just furniture. It’s a subtle but powerful energy anchor. Think about where you are right now in your career and, more importantly, where you want to be. Choose a chair that resonates with your current aspirations and supports your path forward. Whether it’s power, persuasion, peace, or prosperity, let color be your silent ally in success.

Never underestimate the power of your chair. It’s more than just a seat. It’s your throne of productivity and success. A squeaky, worn-out chair not only disrupts your focus but affects your mindset and energy. If the leather is cracked or the comfort is gone, refurbish it or invest in a better one.

I strongly recommend upgrading or refurbishing your chair every 3 years. A well-maintained, supportive chair speaks volumes about how seriously you take your work and your well-being.

Remember — the chair you sit on shapes the quality of the work you produce. So choose wisely, sit strong, and soar high in your career.

Love to you all.

Jai Shri Ganesha, Jai Guru.

Dog or Cat? Astrology’s Secret Remedy for Wealth, Protection, Prosperity

Namaste. Dogs are so cute and cats are also so cute. Many people think that cats are negative. But that is a myth. Cats are connected to goddess Lakshmi. If you go to any temple of any goddess, you will definitely find either a black cat or a white cat. So cats are very much connected with the feminine power.

In this blog I have explained that how cat or dog can actually benefit you. How they can help you in overcoming certain challenges of your life. Whether it is finance, whether it is health, whether it is career or whether it is relationship. Also I have revealed the planet that signify dog and cat, and on the nakshatras that you should adopt cat or dog.

Yesterday, Moan came to me with a simple yet profound question. Astrologically, which pet is better to keep, a cat or a dog? I smiled at his question and said, “Sit down, my friend, and listen. Either a black dog or a white cat, both are beautiful choices.”

Astrology reveals subtle truths. If you are struggling with wealth, if finances seem blocked, then bringing home a white cat, loving her with all your heart and caring for her with sincerity will help remove those financial hurdles. But the love must be real, not mechanical. Only love that flows straight from the heart carries divine power.

If however you are seeking protection, protection from black magic attacks, protection from negative people, strength, recognition and good health, then a black dog is your best companion. A dog is a complete blessing. He supports not only your career and business but every dimension of your life. A cat though is especially beneficial when your struggle is focused on money. If one is not fond of cats, then even a female dog can serve as a powerful alternative remedy to counter financial problems.

In truth, pets themselves are a deep subject in astrology. A cat embodies the qualities of a Brahman, a priest. Cats are priestly, Venusian, connected to Lakshmi and prosperity. Many a times if you are a Hindu and if you visit a goddess temple, goddess Lakshmi, goddess Durga, you will see a cat or probably many cats in and around the temple of the goddess. A dog embodies the qualities of a Kshatriya, warrior-like, Marsian, symbolizing courage and loyalty. Thus the dog is Mars, the cat is Venus.

It is a myth that people allocate Rahu to dog. My friends, Rahu is just a smoke. Do you really believe that a beautiful dog can represent Rahu or Rahu can represent your beautiful dog? That’s impossible. Dog is a Kshatriya, a Marsian, a protector. How can dog connect with Rahu? Dog is not Rahu, my fellows. Dog is Mars and cat is Venus. And Venus remember is not just love. It is also the divine feminine, the Lakshmi that blesses your home. And that is why keeping a white cat is always auspicious especially if you are facing financial troubles.

And history too whispers this truth. Before Christianity spread across Europe, temples of Venus the goddess stood tall. People worshiped her as we worship Lakshmi in our land. To this day, Venus represents the Brahmin energy, not Jupiter. Jupiter is a very high-level planet. It is far beyond. It represents the enlightened beings, the Buddhas, the Mahaviras, the Gurunanaks, the awakened ones who walk the path of enlightenment.

This reminds me of a story. When Buddha was yet to attain enlightenment, he walked with his disciples through a forest. A mosquito burst near his ear and instinctively his hand swatted it away. After a while, Buddha stopped and again moved his hand slowly near his ear, though there was no mosquito. Surprised, Ananda asked, “Master, why this act when there is no insect?” Buddha smiled and said, “The first time my hand moved mechanically without awareness, but now I moved it again. This time with complete awareness.” The message is clear. Every action must arise through awareness.

So too with pets. Keeping a pet is good karma. But caring for them consciously, feeding, nurturing, protecting is what elevates the karma to divine grace. A female cat brings wealth. A female dog too can remove financial struggles. A male dog is auspicious for all aspects, finance, health, career and protection. Ultimately, it is your choice.

Personally, I have always loved dogs. I never had the chance to keep one for I live like a fakir, a wandering nomad. But I recall a great master I once knew who had a black dog. Though he himself lived simply, he ensured that dog was always fed with the best food. His disciples, though vegetarian, would lovingly feed the dog non-vegetarian meals just so the animal remained happy. The master would laugh and say this dog in his past life was a great warrior close to the king. And indeed it is true, dogs and cats like all animals often carry past life karmas. Many were once human beings, great souls, but karma spares no one. They have returned in these forms to balance their past.

That is why Bhagavan Raman Maharishi loved all animals in his ashram. When disciples gave only leftover food to the dogs and cats, he gently corrected them. If you feel they may not like leftovers, then why give them at all? And from that day onward, separate meals were cooked for the animals with love and respect.

My friends, the sutra of life is simple. Love animals, feed them with love, and God will feed you with his infinite grace. For just as you care for your pet, God cares for you, his child. Remember, we are not small, we are the children of God. Our inheritance is vast, our potential divine. If you plan to adopt, choose wisely.

Adopt a cat when the moon is in Bharani Nakshatra or when the moon is in Purva Ashadha or Purva Phalguni Nakshatra because these three nakshatras belong to Venus and cat is Venus, Lakshmi. Adopt a dog when the moon is in Mriga Nakshatra or Dhanishta Nakshatra or Chitra Nakshatra because these three nakshatras belong to Mars, and dog is Mars and not Rahu.

Do this and your pet will bring immense blessings into your life. And to all those who already care for these innocent beings, I bow to you. For I know how much it takes to nurture them. Their innocence draws God closer to them and to you. Never hurt an animal, my fellows. Never hurt an animal because God is watching and he blesses those who bless his creation. Love them and through them love God. For in every wagging tail and in every purring heart, God himself whispers, “I am with you.”

Love to each one of you. And if you have a dog or a cat, then I must say you are indeed a beautiful human being.

Jai Shri Ganesha, Jai Guru.

Protect Yourself: Pithori Amavasya: 22nd August – Zodiac Impact and Remedy

Namaste. On 22nd August, Pithori Amavasya begins. And as I always say that three days before Amavasya and three days after Amavasya, the impact remains. Usually the period before Amavasya and after Amavasya is a very sensitive period. Many people go through mental restlessness, anxiety, depression and many such mental issues because as they say, suffering is always mental. So listen to this forecast and I’m sure you will definitely find the solution to stay positive as this phase begins. Because today is the 20th of August. After two days, the new moon day begins and it ends on the 23rd of August.

The Amavasya on the 22nd of August is known as Pithori Amavasya. Traditionally, mothers observe this day with fasting and prayers for the long life, health and prosperity of their children. Small offerings of flower are made to the goddess because peat, that is flower, represents nourishment, the very substance of life. On this night, the Divine Mother comes close, listening to the heartfelt prayers of mothers, protecting children and blessing families. And so this day is very significant for you if you have children. But what nourishes can also be poisoned. As mothers pray, others use this night for destruction. Amavasya is always a double edged sword. One side is grace, the other side is darkness. On Amavasya, the moon disappears and so does the light of the mind. When the moon is dark, your aura is thinner, your mind is vulnerable and your energy field is open. It is during this very window that black magicians, tantriks and envious people cast their spells on you. Make no mistake, black magic attacks are real and they intensify on nights like Pithori Amavasya.

These spells are not cast by strangers in some faraway land. They are cast by those who know you, who envy you, who burn inside when they see your light. Perhaps an ex lover who cannot bear your happiness. A family member who cannot tolerate your success. Or a relative who smiles at you in public but secretly wants to see you fall. These are the ones who perform Stambhan blockage spells to freeze your career. Utchatan separation spells to break your marriage or relationship. Maran, that is death illness spells to ruin your health. Or Vashikaran meaning mind control spells to make you restless and anxious.

Now, how do you know if you are under black magic attacks? The signs are clear. Observe the signs. The first sign: finances. Your money drains. Debts rise. Deals collapse. Income vanishes without a reason. The second sign: health. Strange fatigue, body aches, disturbed sleep. Medical tests show nothing, but you feel sick. The third sign: relationships. Happy bonds suddenly sour. Quarrels erupt without cause. Couples grow apart. The fourth sign can be your career. Your promotions are cancelled. Rivals rise against you. False gossip spreads like wildfire. And the fifth sign can be your mind. Fear, anxiety, sudden attraction to addictions, restless thoughts, lustful thoughts, sexual thoughts, inability to focus. And the last sign can be your home. Your pets become uneasy. Children cry without reason. Plants wither. A heavy atmosphere is always in your house.

My fellows, this is not just bad luck. These are arrows of black magic shot by those who cannot tolerate your light, who cannot tolerate your success, who cannot see you happy. And so, as all of these things continue to happen in your life, you must remember this: no black magician is stronger than the Divine Mother. Their darkness can never conquer her light. Even a single sincere mantra chanted on Amavasya can burn away the strongest spell.

And so, my fellows, here are some short protective mantras for this dark night of Pithori Amavasya. The first mantra is for protection: Om Gam Ganapataye Namah. The second mantra is for strength. The third mantra is for prosperity: Om Hreem Shreem Mahalakshmyai Namah. And the fourth mantra is for healing: Shri Ram Jai Ram Jai Jai Ram. Chant these mantras with faith, and God and the divinity will surround you like a shield of fire.

Aries: Children, love life vulnerable to psychic attacks, black magic attacks. Avoid speculation, losses are possible during this time. Creative projects may face delays. There may be quarrels in romance or relationship. So be silent, speak less, feel more. Protect children with prayer and chant this mantra: Om Dhum Durgayai Namah.

Taurus: Home and motherly energies will be disturbed. Family disputes may arise. Property or real estate matters may get delayed and emotional stress may become more and more heavy and unbearable. Chant this mantra: Om Namah Shivaya. Continue chanting this mantra so that the stress will come down.

Gemini: Siblings or colleagues may turn hostile. Communication breakdowns are possible now. Be careful of gossip and misunderstandings. There may be delays in your travel plans. Chant the mantra: Om Ramakrishna Hari.

Cancer: Speech becomes sharp, hurting loved ones. So focus, think twice before you speak. Finances may become unstable. Avoid risky investments now. Chant the mantra: Om Shreem Mahalakshmyai Namah.

Leo: This Amavasya falls in your sign. Ego, health and leadership will be tested now. Rivals may use black magic to block your reputation, so be aware, stay cautious, guard your heart and pride, and chant the mantra: Om Namah Shivaya.

Virgo: Hidden enemies will become active. You may face some severe health issues and your sleep will get disturbed. Foreign matters, if any, may get delayed and old karmic debts will surface now. So this time is very, very challenging for Virgo. Chant the mantra: Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya.

Libra: Gains will be blocked by jealous rivals. Friends will betray you. Community conflicts are possible now. Avoid overdependence on networks. Stay silent, maintain a low profile and chant the mantra: Om Shreem Mahalakshmyai Namah.

Scorpio: Career and authority will be tested now. Rivals may spread false rumors about you. Your public image may become vulnerable. Protect professional dignity and do not share your passwords with anyone. Be very careful when doing online transactions and chant the mantra: Om Shri Hanumate Namah.

Sagittarius: Guru’s grace will test your faith now. Obstacles in higher studies or legal matters are possible now. Travel delays may occur and spiritual pride may be challenged now. So be very cautious and maintain a low profile and chant the mantra: Om Namo Narayanaya.

Capricorn: Sudden expenses, health scares or inheritance disputes may occur now. Hidden enemies will strike using black magic, and there will be a certain emotional heaviness during this Amavasya period. So be aware, stay cautious, and do not speak much. Be as silent as possible during this time and don’t react to anybody. Chant the mantra: Om Shri Ganeshaya Namah.

Aquarius: Partnerships, marriage will be tested now. Somebody who is jealous of you may try to attack you using black magic, so be aware. Contracts will be delayed and married life will be disturbed. Rivals will grow active now. They may try to harm you, so be aware. Stay cautious. Don’t trust strangers. And be very careful when doing online transactions. Chant the mantra: Om Namah Shivaya.

Pisces: Workplace politics will become active now. Secret enemies will drain your energy. Your health will become fragile. Stomach, digestion and fatigue — you may experience these kinds of health issues during this Amavasya period. So be very careful when you eat. Be diet conscious. It is possible that debts may increase, so avoid using credit cards much during this period and chant the mantra: Om Vishnave Namah.

Many a times, my fellows, you wonder that people who smile at you in the daylight, they do such dirty acts of black magic on you. And similarly, one day a disciple asked his guru, “Master, why do people who smile at me in daylight curse me at night?” And the master replied, “Because darkness cannot tolerate light. A lamp never asks for enemies, but moths always find it. Do not waste time hating the moths. Simply make your flames stronger.”

And this is the teaching of Amavasya, my fellows. Black magic, envy, gossip, all are moths. Your duty is only this: keep your flame alive. Protect it with mantra, with prayer, with the grace of the Divine Mother. For no shadow, however strong, can extinguish the flame of faith. On this Pithori Amavasya, remember, darkness may knock on your door, but it is only the Mother’s light that enters your soul.

Black magic, envy, jealousy — they are like passing clouds. They appear frightening, but they cannot eclipse the sun forever. Do not lose yourself in fear. Instead, watch. Wrap yourself in faith. Walk with faith in your heart. The Mother listens to the cries of every child, the whispered prayers of every mother, and the broken silence of every wounded heart. She stands beside you, closer than your own breath, shielding you with her unseen arms.

When you chant a mantra with devotion, you are not just repeating sounds. You are lighting a lamp in the temple of your soul. And as long as this lamp burns, no force in this universe can extinguish you. So tonight, when the Amavasya begins, as the world sleeps and shadows rise, sit quietly with folded hands and whisper the Mother’s name. Chant the mantra. Offer your fears at her feet. In that surrender, you will find a power greater than all spells, a light stronger than all shadows. Because in the end, it is not the black magician who decides your fate, but the Divine Mother who writes your destiny. And her pen is dipped not in darkness, but in love.

Remember this eternal truth: God is love, and love alone is real. You will begin to receive love the moment you dare to love yourself. For a man who loves himself has already taken the first step towards the infinite ocean of divine love. It is like casting a small pebble into a silent lake. The first ripples rise close to the pebble, but they do not stop there. They spread, expanding in ever widening circles until they touch the farthest shore. In the same way, when you begin by loving yourself, that vibration of love expands outward, embracing your family, your friends, humanity, and ultimately existence itself.

Never forget, you are precious, you are human. You are the beloved child of God. And no matter where you stand or in what darkness you stumble, if you take one genuine step toward him, he will rush to you with a hundred steps. Such is his kindness. Such is his compassion. The only barrier is the mind, the restless mind, the cage of doubts and fears. Once you silence it, once you open your heart, the grace of God descends like a waterfall, unstoppable, unconditional, eternal.

So love yourself, trust in the Divine, and let your life become that ripple of love which touches every shore.

Love you all. Remember this world is a mixture of sugar and salt. You must learn to separate the sweetness from the bitterness and that begins only with your own self growth. Nourish yourself, walk the path of faith and never let go of your daily mantra practice. As the dark Amavasya night approaches on 22nd August, let your chanting be the light that guides you, protects you and fills your life with divine grace.

Love you all.

Stay cautious and stay focused on your self growth.

Jai Shri Ganesha, Jai Guru.

Find Peace: Meditation Techniques for Achieving Moksha

Moka meditation helps you to get rid of the mind, the problem creator. It simply helps you to slip out of the mind like a snake slips out of old skin. Positive thoughts, negative thoughts — all the thoughts arise from the mind. The divine spiritual masters have gone beyond the mind. The yogi always remains in a state of no-mind. Nobody can appease him and nobody can displease him, because there is absolutely no mind.

Once it happened, there was a young man and he met an old lady. The old lady belonged to a positive-ist group that was very prominent 50 years ago in the US. They called themselves the Christian Scientists. They believed there is no negative, everything is divine, there is nothing wrong, everything is right. They forgot completely that if there is nothing wrong, how are you going to define the right? If there is nothing negative, how are you going to define the positive? If there is no darkness, how are you going to define the light? But certain people found it to be a very interesting philosophy.

The old woman asked the young man, “I have not seen your father coming to our weekly meetings.” The young man said, “He is very sick.” The old woman said, “All nonsense! He has forgotten our philosophy. Sickness is your imagination. Just go home and tell him sickness is your imagination. There is no sickness, no death, nothing wrong in the world. It is God who created the world, how can there be wrong?” The young man said, “I will convey your message.”

Three weeks passed, and the old man did not turn up again. The woman encountered the young boy and asked him, “Did you convey my message?” He said, “I did.” The old woman said, “But he has not turned up to the meeting.” The young man said, “I’m sorry to tell you that now he imagines he is dead.”

The mind creates the web of negative thoughts just like the spider. And the same mind, when it is influenced or impacted by positive thoughts, it removes the web just the way the spider does. This exercise of the mind continues, but it is all limited to the mind. You haven’t really moved beyond mind. The “be positive” theory is also limited to the mind. Nobody has asked Buddha to be positive. Nobody has asked Jesus to be positive. The divine masters have gone beyond the mind. Now there is neither positivity nor negativity. All that remains is consciousness. And that is the state of a yogi — the highest state of meditation where you are no more meditating, you are meditation.

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.

Once it happened, a king would always see a young man meditating beneath a tree. One night, secretly, the king moved out of his palace and went to see the young man. And the young man was found meditating beneath the same tree. The king could not control his curiosity. He stepped ahead and said, “Who are you? You seem to be a someone special person. Else how can you remain for days and nights beneath this tree?”

The young man opened his eyes. There was so much glow, so much love, so much compassion in his eyes that the king’s heart was moved with deep faith. The king bowed before the young man and said, “I am sorry to disturb you. I can see that you were meditating.” And the young man said, “I am not meditating. I am meditation.”

How deep are these words! That is how you should be. Not that you sit for a while and meditate, but your whole life should become a meditation. Then there is a song to it, then there is every possibility for you to experience the beyond, the bliss, and the peace you have been longing for.

Your meditation should become your breath. Then no matter where you are, which place you are, what you are doing, you remain rooted within. And that is the first step towards experiencing the state of no-mind. Once you are rooted in your center, nothing from outside can move you.

The need is to first get rooted within yourself. The need of the hour is that you should turn inwards and start meditating. And when you meditate, meditate with focus on your heart, meditate with total devotion towards the Lord. Meditate every time.

Jai Shree Ganesha. Jai Guru.
