Exploring Vedic Astrology for Personal Transformation

Introduction

Last Monday, a group of curious souls gathered in our cozy, zoom room, ready with anticipation. Our mission? To unravel the cosmic mysteries encoded in our birth charts. Welcome to the inaugural meeting of the Redemption Arc Detectives—a fellowship dedicated to navigating the complexities of planetary placements using the ancient wisdom of Vedic Astrology.

The Vision

Led by the Fiona, our group aims to dig deep into our charts and demystify the complexities of Vedic Astrology. Members can come and go as they please with the goal to empower each detective with knowledge and practical actions that transform their relationship with any difficult avasthas or placements in their charts and lives.

Lajjitaadi Avasthas

Our first session delved into the Parashara’s heart of Vedic Astrology (Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra V1 Capter 45 V11-29)—the concept of Lajjitaadi Avasthas. The verses cover Avasthas such as Baladi and Jagraadi. These states influence our lives, shaping our experiences. Fiona emphasized that advantage of working with Lajjitaadi Avasthas is that with our awareness and intellect we can mitigate their effects. We embarked on a guided tour, deciphering Lajjitaadi Avasthas for every planet in our charts.

From ‘Proud’ to ‘Agitated’

Fiona explained the uplifting energies of ‘proud’ and ‘delight’. Next she covered ‘starvation’ and ‘thirst’ when planets clash with enemies. And then there was ‘agitation’, when a planet is with the Sun, malefics enemies or receiving aspect from malefic enemies. Agitation can have us living out of alignment with our true dharma bringing frustration and intimidation. Could investing time in truly getting to know the self be a key to unlocking this painful avastha? Fiona’s passion ignited our curiosity.

Specifics of Mercury starved by the Sun

In one detective’s chart, Mercury is agitated by the Sun. Fiona dissected this placement in relation to the person’s life. We pondered the difference between ‘combustion’, agitation and the Budha Aditya Yoga.

Natural Enemies

The group debated the ‘Natural Enemy’ phenomenon. Even benefic planets—Moon, Mercury, Venus—could play foes under specific conditions. The group looked once more as a detectives chart with a Mars and Saturn conjunction. Together we explored how to interpret their complex relationship - starvation, agitation, Own Home dignity, exaltation. We found it invaluable to be able to take the time to contemplate and discuss all the factors contributing to this conjunction.

Shame

Fiona then explain how the Lajjit Avastha (including ‘secret’ Shame as defined by Ernst Wilhelm). We then explored how these avasthas show up in Kala Software both in the Calculation Table and the Cards of Truth. We discussed how shame doesn’t have to define us. Allowing others to forgive and accept us redeems.

Case Studies

We had time to dive into the specifics of two of the member detectives. We looked at how Lajjitaadi Avasthas uniquely in each chart. This allowed for a detailed Q&A session.

Drik Bala and Debilitation

Finally, we quickly looked at Drik Bala created by malefic aspects. And touched on Debilitation and how that can affect a person’s life experience.

Next Steps

This Saturday, we’ll do it all again - so come along if you have a drive to understand your chart and its challenges more deeply.
