YOUR RASI (LUNAR SIGN) IS: MESHA (ARIES)
|
Your rasi is the sign of the sidereal zodiac the Moon is positioned
at your time of birth.
The Moon represents the mind which gives birth to all actions.
Here are some general attributes of your rasi:
He is a restless, wandering spirit who acts on impulse. He has red eyes, and quite likely a scar on his head. He likes hot, light food, especially vegetarian. He is easily pleased.
He likes travel and is fond of sport and competition. He is easily influenced by the opposite sex.
Haughty, ambitious and dextrous, he carries out his duties quickly and competently. He has good people working for him.
He is valiant and earns respect and honours. But he has little permanent wealth. His wealth fluctuates. He counts honour as wealth.

YOUR NAKSHATRA IS: ASHVINI 3
|
Nakshatras are special constellations unique to Vedic Astrology. They are
also called lunar mansions because the Moon is intimately related to them.
The history of this relationship is given in the Mahabharata -
the 27 nakshatras are the daughters of progenitor Daksha who gave them in
marriage to the Moon god Chandra.
In astronomy, the principal stars of your nakshatra are called Alpha Arietis.
Contrary to "popular science" which depicts the stars as "distant suns",
the Vedic science associates the stars with the Moon. Indeed Lord Krishna
declares in Bhagavad-gita 10.21: "nakshatranam aham shashi...among
the stars, I am the moon."
In this context, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada,
founder-acharya of the
International Society for Krishna Consciousness, has written: "It appears
from this verse that the moon is one of the stars; therefore the stars that
twinkle in the sky also reflect the light of the sun. The theory that there
are many suns within the universe is not accepted by Vedic literature.
The sun is one, and as by the reflection of the sun the moon illuminates,
so also do the stars. Since Bhagavad-gita indicates herein that the moon is
one of the stars, the twinkling stars are not suns but are similar to the
moon."
The following qualities are attributed to one born in ASHVINI
nakshatra:
Fond of decoration, lovely in appearance, popular, skillful, clever.

YOUR GANA IS: DEVA
|
|
Gana reveals your intrinsic nature by drawing parallels with specific
life forms found in other parts of the universe.
The Vedic scriptures not only reveal that there IS indeed life on
other planets, but also give detailed information on the various species
out there. For example, of mankind alone, there are 400,000 species in the
universe. Broadly, they can be categorised into three basic types: deva (demigodly), rakshasa (demoniac) and manushya (human).
The devas and rakshasas are endowed with far superior abilities,
supernatural even, compared to the ordinary humans (manushyas).
The devas are from the heavenly realm of planets and are entrusted with the
functions of managing the different departments of the universe
(for example, the Sun god managing the Sun) under the authority of
the Supreme Personality of Godhead - Lord Krishna.
The rakshasas are of diammetrically opposite nature. They refuse to acknowledge the
existence of the Supreme Lord, what more to submit to His order, and wreak chaos and disorder in their wake.
Coming back to Earth, while the peoples of this planet belong to
the human race, individually they partake characteristics of one of the
three ganas. Therefore, knowing a person's gana gives clues to his/her
personality.
|
| Deva |
Rakshasa |
Manushya |
The deva personality has high ideals and standards and endeavours to pursue
them. They are the natural do-gooders of the world, readily engaging in
humanitarian and welfare activities.
They are often baffled by the way things are degrading in this age of Kali.
Like the demigod managers of the universe, the deva types are involved
with improving their "universe", and encouraging and inspiring others to do
so as well. They are ever ready to champion the cause of the less privileged.
Be it preserving nature and wildlife, protecting animals, improving the
environment and such causes, a deva personality is likely to be there
upfront leading the campaign.
The deva person has marked affinity for moral and spiritual development.
Their main obstacle however in making personal advancement in this direction
is that, apart from being too caught up in championing other causes,
they have a certain weakness for enjoying finer sensual pleasures.
It is stated in the Srimad Bhagavatam scripture that in
this age of Kali, devas from the heavenly planets are deliberately taking
birth in specified holy places on planet Earth to gain the purifying benefits
of spiritual association.
Therefore, for all their good qualities, only after they come into contact
with practising spiritualists can the deva types fulfill their maximum
potential and attain the best qualities of the demigods.
|
The rakshasa personality is driven by ambitions of materialistic advancement
and expends tremendous amount of energy to try to achieve his goals.
The classic example is one of history's greatest rakshasas, Ravana,
who tried to build a staircase to heaven in an attempt to shortcut the
qualifying process. Thwarted from this project, Ravana went on to bigger
follies including a kidnap attempt on the goddess of fortune for which he was
slain by her husband Lord Rama as depicted in the immortal Ramayana epic.
Rakshasas are intense and rather ruthless in trying to achieve their ends.
Generally, others would would find their company unsettling, especially the
deva types. For this reason, the rakshasa has few friends and even those are
likely to be of similar rakshasa gana.
They have a marked tendency to defy authority, but when they are in
positions of authority, demand absolute following and are quite incapable
of tolerating dissent.
Rakshasas are unashamedly attached to the four pillars of irreligious life:
meat-eating, intoxication, illicit sex and gambling.
All this does not mean that the rakshasa is doomed where spiritual growth
is concerned. Fact is, they can even be found at the head of religious
organisations. While the re-adjustment from grossly material consciousness to
spiritual consciousness might be more difficult for a rakshasa as compared to
a deva, yet the association of sincere spiritualists works
even for rakshasa types.
|
The Manushya personality has less lofty goals and ambitions in contrast to
devas and rakshasas. Simple and unassuming, they are satisfied with
the basic needs of life.
They look up to authority and revere leaders and elders without much question.
All the above qualities and more make the humble manushyas as the best
candidates for making spiritual progess whatever their assigned lot in life.
Indeed it is said that even the devas residing in the opulent heavenly planets sometimes yearn for human (manushya) life on planet Earth, minus the frills
and trappings of heaven, as being more conducive for spiritual advancement.
Having said all that, the manushya personality is the most vulnerable to
the social ills and tragedies of this age of Kali.
They are easily influenced and tend to be led by others.
In fact, the Manushya prefers to be a follower rather than take the initiative.
It has been foretold in the Srimad Bhagavatam scripture that leaders
in this age of Kali will be generally corrupt. Therefore, the Manushya's penchant for putting blind faith in authority inevitably invites disaster. They are almost certain to be exploited.
Thus the saying: a sucker is born every minute.
To avoid getting repeatedly cheated, the saving grace for everyone,
more so for the manushya types, is to seek out a genuine spiritual master
and abide by the transcendental wisdom of his guiding instructions.

YOUR VARNA AT BIRTH IS: VAISHYA
|
Varna refers to your natural inclination to a particular type of work.
It is an ingrained tendency, knowing which might help a person to find his
right career line.
Historically, human society has been structured into four broad
occupational orders - the intellectual, the administrative, the mercantile
and the general worker class. It's a divinely ordained system meant to bring
about material and spiritual progress.
"According to the three modes of material nature and the work associated with
them, the four divisions of human society are created by Me...."
(Bhagavad-gita 4.13: Lord Krishna to the warrior Arjuna on the
battlefield of Kurukshetra 5,000 years ago).
In such a system, the cream of society, the brahmanas dedicated themselves to
an austere life of learning and teaching, dispensing knowledge freely.
The second class, the powerful kshatriyas, ruled fairly and firmly,
protecting the welfare of the citizens. The third-class, the business-minded vaishyas,
engaged in trade and farming and paid a share of their profits as taxes
to the kshatriya administrators.
The shudras, the class with the least ability, rendered ordinary service to the
higher classes and were in turn taken care of.
This is the original class system ordained by God and based on one's innate
qualities. Later, it was twisted into a corrupt "caste" system based
solely on birthright as seen in India as well as in European aristocracy.
The end-result was predicted: kalau shudra sambhava...in this age of Kali,
society is full of fourth-class men with few exceptions.
The key component to determining varna is guna or the three modes of
material nature: goodness, passion and ignorance, the interactions of which
color almost everything under the Sun. Brahmanas are of the mode of goodness,
kshatriyas: passion, vaishyas: mixed modes of passion and ignorance,
shudras: ignorance.
According to the great sage Parashara, celebrated as the father of
Vedic Astrology, your guna is determined by four factors:
qualities inherited from father, qualities inherited from mother,
your time of birth (in other words, your past karma as shown by the
astrological influences at time of birth) and the
association you get into.
Parental qualities are lightly significant but
time of birth and association are considered to be heavily significant.
Of the four, three are static (you cannot do anything about it now)
while one is dynamic - (you guessed it) association!
Therefore your guna, and consequently your varna, will change according to the
company you keep. One born in the mode of ignorance can gradually rise to
the mode of goodness - and even exceed it and attain the platform of
pure goodness in God consciousness beyond the three modes!
What's given above is a clue to your varna at time of birth.
By association, you can improve on that. Most people find themselves either
stuck on the same level or worse still, regressing.
Hopefully, you will be able to find the right association and do better.
To check yourself, whether you are gaining or losing ground, we have quoted
below the qualities of the four varnas from the
Bhagavad-gita As It Is translated by His Divine Grace
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. Below that is our interpretation of
equivalent roles in the modern age of Kali when varna lines
are blurred and mixed-up.
|
| Brahmana |
Kshatriya |
Vaishya |
Shudra |
|
Peacefulness, self-control, austerity, purity, tolerance, honesty,
knowledge, wisdom and religiousness - these are the natural qualities
by which the brahmanas work (18.42).
|
Heroism, power, determination, resourcefulness, courage in battle,
generosity and leadership are the natural qualities of work for the
kshatriyas (18.43).
|
Farming, cow protection and business are the natural work for the
vaishyas,...(18.44)
|
...and for the shudras there is labor and service to others (18.44).
|
|
The brahmana represents the head of society.
The gentle brahmana is meant to work unselfishly for the welfare of the world.
They are naturally inclined to spiritual or intellectual work.
They perform their work out of a sense of duty rather than for sheer material gains.
Whatever their material status, they retain a charming, simple lifestyle.
The brahmana has a clean, neat appearance and high regard
for truth and moral principles.
|
The kshatriya represents the arms of society.
The kshatriya is a natural leader of men. They are ideally suited for
management roles at work, military service or political positions in the community.
They will really excel if
they are fortunate enough to have a brahmana mentor.
They are motivated by honour, achievement and pubic service, above mundane
concerns such as profit. Dishonour is like death to them. Thieves and crooks
stay away from any place run by a real kshatriya.
|
The vaishya represents the stomach of society.
The vaishya has a knack for generating wealth and food.
They know an opportunity to turn a profit when they see it.
They disdain working for a salary, preferring to run their own business.
Profit is of overriding concern for them, above truth and honour.
They can speak truths, half-truths and lies at the same time
just to turn a fast buck.
Many vaishyas have natural talent for farming but may not realise it until
they actually get into it.
|
The shudra represents the legs of society.
The shudra is content to work for a salary without too much responsibilities.
They have little ambition or direction in life.
They tend to be lazy if not properly supervised.
They are the masses of workers
exploited by the vaishya or kshatriya minority to keep the
wheels of industry moving. The control lever is sense gratification
on which shudras squander their hard-earned fruits of labour,
thus perpetuating the vicious cycle they are entrapped in.
|

|
YOUR NADI IS: VATA
|
|
Nadi refers to the predominant of the tridoshas - Vata, Pitta, Kapha -
the three-fold energies working to keep your body in balanced health.
A rough translation of the tridoshas will be Air, Bile and Mucus respectively,
but actually Vata, Pitta and Kapha are referring to deeper principles
which produce these substances among others to maintain your body's health.
There's an entire science behind it called Ayurveda, the Vedic medical science.
Without going into the details, suffice to say that imbalance
(excess or deficiency) of any of the tridoshas will give rise to
corresponding ailments. Understanding your nadi is key to treatment,
usually in the form of regulating your diet with the particular ingredients
to increase or decrease a dosha.
|
| Vata (Air) |
Pitta (Bile) |
Kapha (Mucus) |
|
Vata persons think fast, move fast and talk fast, often without
realising that others cannot keep up the pace.
They are full of ideas but it will take somebody pragmatic
and down-to-earth to put these to work.
They tend to be lean and are of youthful looks.
They are poor eaters and sleep lightly,
often staying up late into the night due to work or worry.
|
Pitta persons are energetic, restless and easily irritated. They need
constant engagement, otherwise they'll be an irritant to those around them.
They eat frequently though in smaller amounts than kapha persons.
They are ever thirsty and are fond of cold drinks and fruits.
They perspire a lot. Pitta body wears out
faster than other dosha types.
|
Kapha persons are usually of roundish build with a friendly, amiable disposition.
They have lustrous skin, good voice and speak sweetly.
Eating is a major pleasure for them.
They are slow-moving and quite attached to home and hearth.
They sleep longer than the other dosha types.
They have to guard against a tendency to become overweight or indolent.
|
|
|
YOUR YONI IS: MALE HORSE
|
|
Yoni refers to your sexuality expressed in terms of a particular
gender and species of animal.
Yoni is one factor in the Marriage Compatibility Test.
The factor of sexual compatibility between a couple is determined on the
basis of their yoni combination.
Just as there are animal pairs who are naturally friendly, neutral or
inimical to each other, the relationship seen between the two animals in
their natural habitat says a lot for the couple's mutual compatibility.
Certain pairings should be avoided:
mongoose and snake, lion and elephant, tiger and cow,
cat and rat, dog and hare, horse and buffalo, monkey and sheep.

YOUR MOST SUITABLE NAME SYLLABLES
|
|
Sound vibrations have a profound effect on us, more so when it is
related to our janma (birth) nakshatra.
There is an ancient link between the nakshatra padas and the
Sanskrit syllables. Each of the 108 nakshatra padas
spanning the zodiac is associated with a particular sound syllable.
Giving a child a name starting with a syllable corresponding to his
birth nakshatra and addressing him by that name is said to be beneficial
for his development.
Now you have facility to not only choose a suitable name for a child,
but also to check whether the name you are using is actually suitable for you.
In the table below, the sound syllable most suitable for you is shown
in bold on the first row, followed by
three other choices (for alternate names).
For a diacritic guide to pronounciation, the
Harvard-Kyoto representation of romanised Sanskrit is given for each syllable.
