Astrology is a Science that is best when applied!

Know Yourself

We may think we know who we are, but, does the reality of our ego mind match the reality of our DNA as found in the birth chart? The birth chart is the blue print of who we are. It is not corrupted with delusions of ego (although ego delusions are revealed in ones chart too!).

Our aim is to give you as many tools as possible to start to understand and dissect your life, starting with your current issues, then maximizing the future potential.

Get Clarity

Astrology helps you gather your energy to be able to focus on, formulate and even expand your goals through planetary support.

Act Effectively Towards Your Goals

You will be able to trouble shoot areas that you need assistance with and sail through the express avenues open to you by doing remedies that connect you to the success vibes.

Fundamentals First:

Know These and Consider Them Your Foundation to Use Vedic Astrology to its Full Advantage

1. Find Out Which Planetary Influences are Good and Bad for You

The planets affect us on a mind and body level with their individual gravitational pulls and electro-magnetic fields but also spiritually with their divine energies. It’s vital to know which of the planets is affecting in a beneficial way and also those affecting in an unfavourable or even obstructive way.

If a planet’s position is placed well in your birth chart then it is considered a good planet and it will help you to taste success.

If a planet is not well placed, it is considered a bad planet and it will bring unfavorable results in life during certain periods. It may affect you in a stressful, uncomfortable and even painful ways.

Your Nakshatra or birth star is the constellation the Moon was in at the time of your birth. It is an important key in Vedic Astrology, as it gives a very unique profile of how your mind works. It will be a key indicator of how your good days and bad days will be. There are 27 unique stars in this system.

3. Find Your Moon Sign/Rasi

Vedic Astrology puts more emphasis on your Moon Sign or Rasi than Sun Sign as per Western Astrology. The Moon Sign is based on what sign the Moon was in at the time of your birth. The Sun indicates how the world sees you – the Moon indicates how you see the world.

And Then What?

Proven Vedic technologies from a time where ancient scientists studied the cosmos and experimented with its nature are here to help you unleash your own powerful destiny.

Once you know through planetary reports, which planets to focus on, you can start ‘propitiating’ or developing a peaceful relationship with them through Vedic ritual.

Are Your Ancestors Controlling You?

If your finances, relationships, health, business, your peace of mind etc are not progressing how you’d like, consider that it could be interference from your departed ancestors.

Just as your physical is built by your physical DNA, your soul was built by soul genes. Not all of your thinking and doing is what you really want to do. You are conflicted. There is some interference from your soul lineage.


Aadi Amavasya New Moon

Aadi Amavasya is the New Moon in the Tamil month of Aadi. New Moons are the times to set is right with your ancestors. The months of Aadi- July/August- and Thai- January/February, are considered especially Divine Months that the Gods and Goddesses have marked as the months they will most enhance our lives.

Tarpanam
This year it falls on a Saturday which is fortunate as any Tarpanam or ritual done to appease your ancestors will be taken into account by Lord Saturn and logged as good karma. Saturn is very vigilant in seeing over the books and it is always good to get in ‘good’ with Saturn!


Think Your Own Thoughts

There is an easy way to end this stalemate and that is to appease, propitiate, restore harmony or re-establish friendly relations with your ancestral energy bank. Tarpanam is the leveller. When you ‘feed’ the souls of the departed, you will be free to think and do for yourself. You will be free from their influence that is old thinking or patterning- antiquated mind-sets.

Consider how your state of mind changes when you are acknowledge and ‘seen’.


Evaluate the Results for Yourself

This is not a new technology but let your own results be your answer to whether this is purely superstition or not.

Learn How to Perform Daily Tarpanam from Dr Pillai


Learn How to Perform Daily Tarpanam from Dr Pillai


Ancestor Relationship Maintenance

As per the Vedas, Tarpanam is best performed by a Vedic Specialist or priest trained in this on New Moons- especially Aadi Amavasya and Dr. Pillai also recommends doing your own Tarpanam every day to supplement this. All that you need is some black sesame seeds, rice and water.


Transformative Funeral Rites and Departed Ancestor Services

Help your departed ancestors and dears ones for a peaceful crossover which will help you de-mystify and address the concerns of the departed ancestors and dears ones for a peaceful crossover. You can both be at peace knowing the soul has been guided correctly. These are to be done at 2 weeks after their departure.


This Aadi Amavasya Special Fire Ritual

Thila Fire Ritual to be performed in Kerala
On Saturday, July 30th IST, you can join in a group ‘Thila’ Fire Ritual to be performed in Kerala. This ritual is not well known to many and is known to be very effective in getting aberrant ancestral energies under control and working in your favor by covering the past 8 generations of ancestors.This is the first time that we are offering the performance of this fire ritual for the ancestors.

It is even said that this fire ritual has the power to make up for the omission of doing regular Tarpanam up until now. It involves 12 thousand chants and will remove ‘Pittru Dosha’ and ‘Pitru Sabham’ which is any afflictions caused by them or removes any curses that may have been put on your ancestors that you are paying the price for now.

Your ancestors will be helped to get to the next stage, any of their unfulfilled desires with be fulfilled and you will attain their blessings.


This Aadi Amavasya Poor Feeding

Karuppa Swamy
Another important ritual to be done this New Moon is a Feeding for the Poor. Karuppa Swamy is an archetype whose energy is very available on the Earth plane everywhere during this Aadi month. The feeding will be done in his name which is also very effective in removing karma. Karuppa Swamy is the ‘Performer God’ who wields a no nonsense brand of justice and looks out for his people who are the poor, simple and honest folk.

No Planetary Curses Only Blessings: July 27th

Suryanar Koil- The Heavens on Earth

There is a temple in Tamil Nadu dedicated to the planet Sun- Suryanar Koil. All of the 9 Planets are represented here in individual shrines. What makes this temple so extra special is that all of the planets are depicted without their weapons. They are the benevolent aspects and can bless and counteract any planetary influence put upon you by worshipping here. The planets are our consciousness and Now is the chance to balance your cosmos!

The Cosmos is Our Consciousness

Astronomically speaking, the planets in our Solar System affect the Earth physically with their large electro-magnetic and gravitational field interactions. They have subtler influences as well.

Astrologically, the planets or ‘Grahas’ are all forms of our consciousness. Through their rotations, revolutions and transits through the constellations, they give rise to changes in our natural environment and in our beings.

Vedic Astrology recognises 9 Planets or ‘Navagrahas’(nava = 9) in particular; the Sun, the Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu.

sunsunsunsunsunsunsunsunsun

Vedic Astrology or ‘Jyotisha’ is the oldest most time-tested system of astrology in the world. The Sanskrit word Jyotisha means “science of light.” The origin of Jyotisha is from the Vedas, the Ancient Wisdom Texts. It is the science of understanding the subtle influences that come to us from the greater cosmos; more specifically the 9 planets that are said to influence us here on Earth the most.

Karma and Astrology

Astrological PredictionVedic Astrology has a practical application. Humans have a spiritual nature and this was set to use a guide to help us in realizing our true selves. It helps us to realize that each soul is learning its lessons, which can only be learned under specific sets of circumstances. We come to know that astrological prediction comes true because the soul is guided by Higher Beings, or the planets.

The Law of Karma explains the pattern of our lives, starting from birth. Without this Law astrology makes little sense. Vedic astrology includes both the aspect of fate and that of free will. Fate as per Karma means that our present condition is the result of our past actions from previous lives. The outer events of our present life are ruled by past Karma and can be difficult to change. Free will as per Karma means that we shape our future by our present actions.

Karma is Transferrable

Vedic astrology provides proactive ways of dealing with our Karma. Vedic astrology holds that spiritual practices, like remedial rituals, Yoga, prayer and meditation neutralize the effects of a bad or unfavorable astrological chart. Vedic astrology helps us to realize our true self, and helps us to know the divinity of the soul.

It provides a clarification of your Karma. Vedic astrology alleviates what is perhaps the greatest fear for human beings uncertainty and anxiety about the future. It helps us navigate confidently through the confusing waves of Karma, aware of our outer destiny and our inner timeless self as well.

You do not have to be a prisoner of karma as it is transferrable.

9 Planets at Suryanar Koil- No Cursing Only Blessings

Suryanar Koil

Guru, or Jupiter, is depicted here as offering worship to Surya.
