Essence of Astrology


The essence of astrology is predictions, preventing mishaps and changing the unfavorable planetary influences. The art of prediction enables an astrologer to look into future with confidence and the suggestion of astral remedies helps in preventing mishaps. Astral remedies are two pronged. Firstly, by propitiating the planets exerting unfavorable influences we can avert mishaps. Secondly, by strengthening the weak favorable planets we can produce desired or better results.This morning (5th September, 2008) I received an e mail as reproduced below:

“Your prediction regarding timing of conception was brilliantly and amazingly accurate. I did conceive end of July and was confirmed a couple of weeks back. However, on the 3rd of Sep ~5:24 am EST, I suffered a miscarriage and passed out a couple of min and was rushed to emergency. Around 6 am the same day, my mom also fell down the stairs and hurt herself badly.After waiting for so many years, the happiness was shortlived and after this loss, was wondering -

1) could this have been foreseen and prevented even after wearing the gemstones and kavach?

2) is it possible to know when next there will be a chance followed by a healthy pregnancy if any in the near future?

3) During the operation around 3pm yesterday, I took off the kavach and stones pendant (gold). When can i wear it back?”

Now in this case while the strengthening measures helped in achieving the desired results for conception, the absence of regular and continued propitiatory remedies for the functional malefic planets caused setback due to malefic transit influences. The significator of progeny, Jupiter, in transit came under the influence of natal most malefic planet, the Moon, in the Sagittarius ascendant.

I received another e mail from another person, which I reproduce below:

“I know that we are still doing propitiatory remedies, but I'm very concerned about your forecast for Virgo for the weekend of the 14th September. As I wrote to you several weeks ago, we will be flying on the 13th and returning home on the 16th. Is our life in danger?”

Since the person is doing the propitiatory remedies my reply was that I did not see any danger to her life.

This takes my memory back to the year 1992 when a gentleman, Mr. Rajinder Prasad, who is very kind and generous used to contact me daily to seek astral remedies suggestion for his colleagues and friends who were confronting problems in various aspects of life. He was then learing astrology, as well. He used to believe that till he learns astrology he would not venture into giving any suggestions for astral remedies at his own as it may amount to earning of bad karma if the suggestions were not correct. It was at this stage when I developed the tried and tested set of propiitiatory remedies for each ascendant and decided the suggestion of strengthening of weak functional benefic planets for helping the students who were at learning stage so that the astral remedies suggestions can help all those who were seeking these.

Mr. Prasad was holding a very senior position in Public Sector.One day Mr. Prasad while using a lift in his office was carrying astrology books in his hands. Two ladies working in his office in a different department asked Mr. Prasad if he knew astrology and can teach them. On introduction Mr. Prasad came to know that Ms Singhal and Ms Venkat both were Computer Engineers and were then working as Senior Managers. On seeing their serious interest Mr. Prasad talked to me. We decided to meet during lunch hours thrice a week for an hour for teaching fundamentals and predictive techniques. This had been a great experience as these engineers picked up the fundamentals and predictive techniques in two months study. Of course, their persistence with learning and gaining experience helped them further.
