Just as is the case with #Ayurveda, where any substance has the potential to be a poison or healing, in #astrology anything can be a blessing if you approach it with the right frame of mind. If you use it correctly. Knowing the purpose that it serves on your journey through this life is key to this

I appreciate your content :) I don’t follow many western astrologers, so it is interesting to have some insight on the similarities/ differences. Thanks for the share 🙏

So if I see Rahu in the 5th, I assume that this is a person with a unique way of processing information. They might learn through technology (rahu is innovative) and will use these tools to create and advise others. Alternative forms of education would be a theme here. Unusual approaches.

The 5th house is about the intellect. Sure, children are noted here as well, but having Rahu in this position doesn’t necessarily bring one children or a desire for them (it is the opposite, usually, but there are many other factors that play into this).

In Vedic astrology, Rahu isn’t just material desire, it is the itch you cannot scratch. It can reflect the egoic pursuit of things (often material) that might distract us from the upholding of truth and purpose (dharma). It can point to areas of obsession or fixation.

Happy new year to you and thank you for your inspirational wisdom and guidance this year 🙏 I hope the new year brings you success and many blessings!

I am not saying this to belittle anyone with serious anxiety disorders. I trust that everyone is capable of making the best decisions for their being. I am speaking from my own experience. For me, this has taken a lot of work and time, and I have tools that help me to navigate these tides as well.

I, myself, rely on these signals. I trust my body and mind to let me know when something is off, and instead of pushing them down, subduing them, I see it as an opportunity to listen.

For some, anxiety is a signal that something in your life is out of order, off balance, or disconnected. If we look at this objectively, we can see it as a tell: something must change. I must take care of myself.

Knowledge of the #elements is a way of understanding the body through this relationship, and like any relationship that is well rooted, it takes time to establish. It takes devotion. #Āyurveda is a #devotional practice to animistic forces as revealed through the #elements.

The #Āyurvedic practice is almost #alchemical. The practitioner guides the body towards a state of balance, or equilibrium, using the qualities present to balance each other out.

The language of the #elements is the #gunas or #qualities. A #vaidya uses the #gunas to assess the state, location, & quantity of the #elements or #doshas. Developing the vision required to understand the gunas and how they manifest is essential and requires relationship with the elements.

A #vaidya, an #Āyurvedic doctor, or practitioner, can read and speak the language of these 5 great elements that are the building blocks of all living and non-living things in existence. #earth, #water, #fire, #air, #space.

The recognition of the presence of animate forces that move through time and space, forces that enter our beings and perform their #dharma, or work, within our being is, essentially, #spiritual #animistic in nature.

#ayurveda

#Āyurveda interprets the interactions between the many parts of our #being (the physical parts as well as the spiritual and emotional) and how they relate with the #natural and unnatural, or human made, world through the presence of the #elements.

On this day of #Bharani #Nakshatra, with every action #karma taken, I ask:

What am I letting go of?
What am I supporting/sustaining?
What am I creating? What am I birthing into existence?
What is my purpose #dharma, and do my actions #karmas add up to this?

#vedicastrology

#Bharani #nakshatra is the bearer; she endures.

She is self restrained/controls the senses; knows the necessity/value of the sacrifice.

She supports and nurtures: gives away part of herself in order to sustain the other.

I have many clients who are treated for normal bodily functions or slight imbalances with long term medications that interrupt #endocrine functioning in big ways. I seriously recommend reading all #sideeffects before committing to any treatment, especially long term. #wellness #Ayurveda #Hormones
