SEXUALIDAD Y ASTROLOGIA
La Sexualidad tiene una connotación de interés muy fuerte en las personas, puesto que es uno de los espacios de placer más deseado. Pero es uno de los temas más difíciles y complejos de abordar, es incluso un aspecto que fue considerado por los siglos de los siglos como pecado. Y todavía esa mentalidad suele lesionar gravemente a la gente. Es un tema muy natural y por fortuna estamos en una era donde hablarlo, puede representar un inicio para sanar esa área de la vida en algunos casos sanar y en otros descubrir la sexualidad personal.
No pretendo escribir aquí la última palabra en sexualidad, pero si compartir elementos naturales de la sinfonía del universo, astros y estrellas que nos ayudan a mejorar la comprensiónnen este campo vital, natural y necesario de la vida. Pues la ufanación de no necesitar de la sexualidad. es realmente el enmascaramiento de grave bloqueo en su Casa 8. Y quienes presentan dificultades para expresar una sana y placentera sexualidad, su interes por mejorar puede llegar a ser premiado con un análisis detallado de su Casa 8, con la comprensión holística de su Carta Natal.
La fase primaria de la sexualidad es el instinto. ¿Y qué es el instinto? El instinto es en sí una necesidad personal. Las primeras casas hasta la Casa 6 están íntimamente ligadas a esas necesidades personales e instintivas. Son casas donde se busca mas afirmar el “Yo”. Más cuando se llega a la Casa 7, el “Ello” pasa a ser un factor ineludible. Es decir que de ahí en adelante, además de pensar en las necesidades personales, es fundamental pensar también en las necesidades del otro. de la Casa 7 en adelante se nos abre la oportunidad de aprender que nos somos el ombligo del mundo. Que no hay que esperar que el mundo gire siempre a nuestro alrededor, sino buscar en el ritmo de la gran sinfonía universal. Y la pareja (Casa7) es ese sublime compañero (a) para trenzar esa melodía sublime.
El instinto de cada ser humano si excepción alguna, una vez identifica que tiene una necesidad, busca el algo para cubrir ese necesidad. Una vez encuentra ese algo, utiliza para con él satisfacer su necesidad y así suprimirla.
Como vemos se entiende que el instinto incita solo a lo personal, como comer, abrigarse para no pasr frío, protegerse para no ser dañado, jugar para no aburrirse, trabajar para sobrevivir, etc. Pero la sexualidad de la Casa 8 va mucho más allá del instinto, muy por encima de solo satisfacer unas reacciones biológicas de placer de los organos genitales.
La Casa 7 conlleva a pensar en el otro involucrando un sentimiento, pero la Casa 8, conlleva a sentir también el otro. Millones y millones de personas en este planeta no han logrado superar sus instintos personales, los que conllevan desde la Casa 1 hasta la 6. Y por ello se les dificulta vivir una plena satisfacción de la sexualidad Casa 8. Para expresarlo poeticamente, cito las palabras de Ricardo Arjona. (Cantautor de Guatemala), cuando en una de sus cmposiciones acuño la frase: " he hecho el sexo mil veces, pero nunca he echo el amor".
La sexualidad va muchos años luz mas allá, que la mera manipulación instintiva (egoísta de unso organos genitales. Escorpión signo de aguas profundas (sentimientos profundos) nos muestra el camino, indicando que la sexualidad involucra sentimientos entrañables de amor. El amor es el sentimiento clave y esencial para elevar el espíritu.
Se puede entonces definir la sexualidad como todo un acumulado de condiciones que involucra a toda la movilización del ser integral en cada uno de los miembros de la pareja:
Condiciones activas (Fuego), condiciones anatómico-fisiologicas (Tierra) condiciones mentales (Aire), condiciones sensibles (Agua) así como condiciones de elevación espiritual (Éter). Esas son las características que se manifiestan en cada sesión sexual de una pareja. Porque hay que recordar y aclarar el orden de universo: "Como es arriba es abajo" La Casa 8 es un sector en el cual se habla de dos, como consecuencia natural del trabajo pleno de la Casa 7 y precedentes.
Sexualidad solo se puede lograr con quien se ha cultivado la Casa 7. Porque la única manera de desarrollar la Casa 7 es con otra persona. Y es ahí justo donde se exalta Saturno (Crono) el mitológico dios tiempo y de la estructuras. De la misma manera es vital trabajar las estructuras de una relación de pareja, y esto no se logra de la noche a la mañana, esto se logra con DOVOCIÓN AL OTRO, TIEMPO Y PACIENCIA.
La Sexualidad es un divino y excelso momento donde dos seres de concentran en un profundo amor, tras el acto posterior de trascender sus diferencias en Casa 7. Se sumergen en el lecho del rio de la Casa 8, donde se dedoblan su alma y junto con su cuerpo s fusionan de la manera más sublime en un solo ser por ello la sexualidad es energía transformadora entrañada en es Casa 8.
En el reino animal, es totalmente normal ver el sexo instintivo: Un gallo se aparea con cientos de gallinas caderonas. Un toro se insemina cientos de robustas vacas. Un cerdo con cientos de gorditas cerditas, etc. Esta es una fuerte tendencia que aun le ha dificultado borrar a muchos seres humanos. Es un hábito y recuerdo díficil de borrar para luego brillar. Pues todavía hay millones que práctican ese sexo instintivo y anima, que no sobrepasa de las primeras Casas astrológicas.
La sexualidad será un lenguaje extraño para ellos y les tocará y venir, dando tumbos, en el viciosos circulo instintivo y primario desde la Casa 1 a la Casa 6. Entonces solo quedará conformarse con un secundario premio de consolación. Él manipular sus genitales (masturbación) con las manos hermafroditas de Mercurio y de su casa 3 o de consolarse con los juguetes de la Casa 5 o las multiples amantes de esa Casa del entretenimiento. O comprar los fríos "servicios sexuales de la Casa 6. o volverse millonario, para comprar el sexo Casa 2 de las o los que se arriman a un (a) magnate por la míseras migajas de su dinero.
Oh... ¿Cómo se le puede llamar sexualidad a aquella actitud egísta y machista (Casa 1) que practican millones de señores, donde creen que sexualidad es el acto primario y animal de eyacular instintivamente, sin percatarse o atender la satisfacción sexual de su frustrada pareja? Evoco con esto las palabras de Erich From: "Cuando la parálisis de la masculinidad es más intensa, el sadismo (uso de la fuerza) se convierte en el principal (y perverso) sustituto de la masculinidad. Si la sexualidad femenina está debilitada o pervertida, se transforma en masoquismo o posesividad"
Es por ello necesario madurar el ecuanime trabajo de la Casa 7, para poder acceder a los paraísos reservados de la Casa 8. La sexualidad de la Casa 8, solo es posible realizarla con la única persona que se cultivó la Casa 7. Lo demás es instinto. Y el instinto es una satisfacción primaria y egoísta de unas necesidades de origen animal, que son recordadas y accionadas desde el sistema límbico del cerebro.
Todas las personas hombres y mujeres tienen un Marte (masculino) y una Venus (femenina) en su Carta Natal. Marte exaltado en Escorpión y Casa 8 es sexualidad y la venus domiciliada en casa 7 es sensualidad. Cada persona debe de expresar la delicadeza y dulzura de su Venus y la sólida fuerza direccionada y bien canalidad de Marte. Lograr un buen equilibrio en estos principios garantiza la derrota del hastío, el disgusto y la monotonía sexual.
La sensualidad (Venus-femenina) en el hombre o la mujer, es una energía refinada que se cultiva aprendiendo a conocer (Aire) al otro en la Casa de Libra (Casa7), Dar amor de sí mismo (Casa 1) al otro (Casa 7), abre el camino hacia las siguientes Casas natales y trascendentes, desde la Casa 8 hasta la Casa 12. Con la sensualidad se logra el desdoblamiento del alma, y se y se logra una comunicación etérica entre los dosd seres. Y así fluye del corazón la mirada mágica, la voz que endulza, la caricia justa en los puntos más explosivos y expansivos del alma (Casa 9).
En el Canal de río Casa 8, que es una vorágine concentrada de pasión, es apenas normal que esta energía sexual se sienta vibrar en su Ritmo y Elemento. Es la sexualidad un espacio donde toda la atención se concentra en el lecho profundo y majestuoso o cuerpo y alma del ser amado. Una verdadera sexualidad de la Casa 8 es un río arrollador que además de llevarte al océano infinito, de paso te eleva a las nubes, al cielo celestial & glorioso, sin remordimiento o arrepentimiento alguno, porque cuando ahí llegas... ya no quieres regresar.
El instinto sexual en sí nace con el ser humano, está en su memoria genética y en la profundidad oscura del subconsciente. El sexo desde el instinto es mecánico, repetitivo y finalmente aburrido. Porque no se tiene en cuenta la naturaleza sicológica y bilógica de sexualidad que además esta apoyada sobre una ley y plataforma natural La Polaridad Masculina-Femenina.
Es misión de desarrollar la sensualidad. El elevar el ser hacia el refinamiento que se logra con la Casa análoga al signo de Libra, y desarrollando plenamente las Casas primarias y básicas, que son las aneriores o las antesalas de la Casa 7.
Pero... ¿Cómo se hace?
Daré unos breves resumenes iniciales. Llega el amor a primera vista de Casa 1. Luego la naturaleza con los pajarillos nos enseñan algo elemental, que es asegurar, construir para tener primero que todo el nido de Casa 2 y Casa 4, porque el sexo con hambre no funciona. Además hay que abrir un clima de diálogo de Casa 3 con la pareja. Hay que brindar ternura, amparo, protección maternal, cálidez y calor de hogar de la Casa 4 a la pareja. Los dos miembros de la pareja deberán jugar su juegos mutuos de Casa 5: reír, jugar, divertirse, crear mutuamente. Así llega a la oprotunidad de Servir en la Casa 6, asumiendo y produciendo, especializandose y diferenciando roles, para finalmente conciliar las diferencias mutuas en la Casa 7.
Luego se te abren las puertas celestiales de la Casa 8, y así se experimentará por fin que es en verdad sexualidad. Porque citando las palabras de mi amigo del alma Krisnhamurti; "La sexualidad puede ser tan casta como el cielo azul despejado de nubes." Sí, es un hecho, el sexo se puede embellecer, hacéndole pleno al amor a quien amas y persiguiendo las guias maravillosas del infinito cielo estrellado.
Namasté!

RETROGRADE PLANETS AND DECEASES
It is understood that retrograde planets indicate the challenges of life or even highlights for success and growth, depending upon their placement and association. There are diametrically opposite viewpoints regarding the results of retrograde planets in different texts. How they will behave is debatable, and one needs to learn with experience.
However, I agree with you, and experience shows that retrogrades indicate a need to revisit the past. Though it is a difficult to fathom that one soul needs to have multiple revisits having all retrogrades, another one does not have to look back. And it is not that the latter one is not facing challenges. Anyhow, that is besides the point under discussion.
Besides the ‘unfulfilled desires’, the DRIDH PRARABDAHA signified by a retrograde could be the karm phala of a past action. These phalas could be moare specifically related to diseases and sufferings, than a happy and peaceful life, which direct planets give anyways. Our Puranas, often condemned as stories or exaggerated treatises, have deliberately laid stress and given detailed descriptions, with examples, of the Karmas and their consequences. It may not be just a shrewd psychology and insight being put to a practical use.
Till the soul attains self-realisation and gains absolute knowledge, there is a constant ebb and flow, till a final divinisation of the individual happens. Until this state is attained the human being swings between the sublime and the bathos. His two different aspects react to the external stimuli in their own distinctive manners to take the soul forward. There is a tug-of-war between the animal and human natures to gain precedence and dominate over the field of jiva-consciousness and hence the different good and bad karmas. In this context, Puranas (specially Garuda Purana) have quoted specific “Phalas” of sinful actions and crimes, which result in specific diseases in the next birth.
This could be one of the reasons why retrogrades associate with diseases. As per puranas, most of the bad actions lead to bodily suffering, by which man learns, it seems. E.g, one who plugs up or blocks up the hole of a rat or a snake, who catches fish and causes them to die by suffocation, who stifles the life of any creature, gets asthma, lung diseases, pleurisy, bronchitis (severe), pneumonia, etc. That might be a retrograde Saturn in Cancer?

ASTROLOGY-THE ENIGNA
Astrology, the endless enigma! Pondering over it, one has to accept, albeit reluctantly, that much of the forecasting comes from serendipitous uttering or muttering of an astrologer, rather than his prudence and consistent display of great astrological acumen. But then, are astrologers supposed to be know-alls? Are they really? Even those who aren’t dilettantes, are they supposed to offer insights into everything?
Astrology may be a language, and not a belief, but where does one learn the syntax, the semantics and the pragmatics from? How do we remove the dead scales of time from the scriptures and classics to find the traces, if any, of gasping life! With the changing social paradigms, can the tattered scriptures of provide a framework upon which we may hang our lives? What is the best way to learn astrology to make it applicable and replicable?
Astrology is said to rest on astronomy. Astronomy, as a science, was it in a better condition at the time of Aryabatta and Varahmihira, than today? The calculations which were then framed, or were in use then, were suited to the time. Owing probably to the wear and tear of the machinery of the Solar system, the tables or calculations of that age not suited to our age. But why are we incapable of creating fresh frameworks, with much so much scientific advancements?
Is it because of the missing mechanism to explain its working, or the apparent missing link between the cosmos and humans. Is astrology mystical! or magical! or magnetic! Or is it just an astronomical or celestial interference on the planet which we fail to understand with assurance and conviction? Are we taking this celestial interference too seriously?
Is astrology some form of unified field theory, planetary activity being sum total of a number of forces, some good and some evil, with man’s karma leading him into the one force or the other. But there are also some other forces, by knowledge of which, man may benefit himself, though they may not be his lot to be drawn into, by his past karma. This is the job assigned to free will, so the planets may not just act like mere jailors and rewarding officers.
Why would Varahmihira, in Brihat Jataka talk about Nisheka (conception), and advise the native to avail himself of particular planetary positions if he desired an excellent issue? We are told else where that Parasara, after finding such an hour for Nisheka, approached and joined a boat-man’s daughter in an island on the Yamuna and the issue born was the great Vedavyasa. Is Muhurta the key to accelerate our freewill then?
Are we, in a way being told that prevention is better than cure, i.e., to use good muhurta for activities like travel (includes flights), to avoid disasters! But can we choose the Muhurta always?
Too many questions! And we have no answers! That is why perhaps, world is forced to look askance at astrology!

Rahu
Rahu in a chart holds the key to the inventory of our karmas, and also reserves the right to boomerang the effects of past karmas in our lives. Everyone has a Rahu posited somewhere in the chart, like a volcano, ready to erupt when it is time to reap your harvest, and as you sow… so shall you reap.
Rahu has been compared to a poisonous black serpent, which is both wise and deadly. Like the serpent, changing its robe like the snake’s skin which is shed for a new and glistening form. While its wisdom is self-manifest in the newer forms, it remains the same in essence. It has a bipolar or forked tongue, an aid to express his wisdom can be very acidic or saccharine. Wisdom of Rahu can be a misguided missile when it is susceptible to degradation and turns cunning and criminal when employed for wrong deeds or it can act as a divine guide for elevation into lofty intuition and excellent intellect when used for high ideals and purpose. Snake venom can destroy as well as heal depending upon its use and dosage. Degraded it poisons and corrupts and when rightly used, it is an antidote to all ills.
It is Rahu’s wisdom which makes a Charles Sobhraj when it afflicts an exalted Jupiter in Cancer and it also has the power to make a great educationist like Radhakrishnan even when posited with Saturn in cancer. Of course, as I said earlier Rahu is a planet on mission, but is not alone and other planets join hands and help him in accomplishing his mission.
The great churner that Rahu is, offers us the cream as well as the buttermilk of all grades and shades. An astrologer’s job is to understanding Rahu’s energy in a nativity and to guide the distressed persons on how to harness this energy. How to become the Lion and carry the mighty Rahu to our advantage is what we need to learn from our lessons in astrology.
It is significant that Leo represents a mountain and the serpent Vasuki was tied around a mountain to churn the nectar. What does it mean? Does it imply the fixity of a fixed leo lagna which can churn the ocean but remains like a fulcrum or does it imply that Leo is the point where if Rahu is present, the native is born to make a sea change in his life and surroundings? Does it imply that the native will revolt and would like to change his way from what is expected of him to what he expects of himself? Does it also mean that he is at a point in his life cycle where he has to regenerate, which is also the souls progress to Leo? Have you seen Rahu not liking the circumstances he is in and wanting to wriggle out and take on a new skin… is that why we call him unconventional. Does it become more pronounced in Leo? The boomerang effect!!

Does it imply the fixity of a fixed leo lagna which can churn the ocean but remains like a fulcrum or does it imply that Leo is the point where if Rahu is present, the native is born to make a sea change in his life and surroundings? Does it imply that the native will revolt and would like to change his way from what is expected of him to what he expects of himself? Does it also mean that he is at a point in his life cycle where he has to regenerate, which is also the souls progress to Leo? Have you seen Rahu not liking the circumstances he is in and wanting to wriggle out and take on a new skin… is that why we call him unconventional. Does it become more pronounced in Leo? The boomerang effect!!
MARRIAGE
Marriage is one of the most important aspects of human life, and we all become familiar with it and experience the phenomenon through marriage of self, parents, siblings, friends, children, etc. We witness various shades of this social bonding at all times in our lives. And with our divya chakshus, we are supposed to see a little extra… with people in distress coming for solutions, we do get that extra exposure to marriage-related happenings…
Whatever may be the type and status of marriage, no one can deny that disagreements and discords are common place in any marriage, even between the most understanding partners, due to various reasons. In fact, to take the argument forward, sometimes bitter communication appears to be better than no communication. These discords may not be a threat to an otherwise healthy marriage, but do become a cause for discomfort for sometime or some days to come. And to a marriage already standing on one leg, they may give the last push…
Can we identify such periods from a horoscope, and study their intensity whether they are mild shakers or earthquakes and whether we can develop some warning signals for such happenings.
I have observed in many cases, the dashas related to 2H, 6H and 10H of a chart throw up challenges in the marriage, and become a cause of discord between the partners. Whether the discord is mild or severe, temporary or permanent, or how long will it last, can be judged by applying the normal astrological techniques. Where the lords (LL and 7L) sulk in the chart when this happens, is also important.
These three are the trinal houses and any event in one gets the support of the other two. Good planet in one will support the other two and a malefic in one can ruin the other two also.
From the 7H, these are the 4/8/12 houses and denote the emotions and sensitivity and play of psyche in the marriage.
2H is 8H of marriage and for self it is the house of verbosity, speech, niyam, etc.
6H is 12H of marriage and for self it is the house of quarrels and disputes.
10H is 4H of marital happiness and it is the 10H of karma for self.
Do we see a dispute due to one partner being vocally harsh on another, with his/her karma supporting it (karela aur neem chadha…) to disturb the happiness of marriage and the dispute ensuing from 6H, at the expense of 7H of marriage. We can get into the reasons of verbal brawls by further examination and associations in these houses.
2H is also the house of income
6H is the house of our work-related strife
10H is your profession
Does one get engrossed in professional activities with day-to-day work and focuses more on wealth and income than the spouse/partner (kaam aur paisa…) again at the expense of 7H?
There can be many such interpretations, all related to 2/6/10 and marriage. Do we see any overactivity (malefic) of these houses for couples who tend to have more than normal disagreements? Or if I may say, do we see any role of these houses (2/6/10) in making any marriage mostly a happy one?

MULA OR ROOT
Astrologically, this subject of ‘mula’ or root has a deep import and a chart may unfold some significant details when we observe or read it from this angle. It can throw light on the different manifestations at all levels of a being – physical, mental and spiritual.
What is the astrological significance of three mula points of transmutation and the ‘one actual mula’ in any chart? Are they really to be dreaded? Are planets really weak when posited at these points? If so, why and when?
Kaal-sarp can be read in the ‘root’ light. What is the significance of ketu’s position in a chart. What does this mokshkarak really do? Does it really give moksh or shows us the path to evolve to higher state of being? Why does ketu inflict physical hardships and mental worries? How other planets align themselves with this primary point?
Once understood, the horoscope will reveal an entirely different aspect of any personality. For certain significations, we can directly co-relate with the yogic body, but for some we have to look for deeper esoteric meanings.
e.g a native having serious affliction to jyeshtha/mula sandhi, might suffer injuries/diseases in the area represented by this, but there is also another impact which is at psychic level and another one which pushes him on the spiritual levels.
Catch the Muladhar point in the chart and see where we stand in PMS plane. Some pointers can be:
Muladhar is the basic, fundamental chakra from where human beings commence their evolution which passes through the 7 main chakras and sahasrara is where our evolution is completed. Why man sits upright at this stage of evolution?
Animals have seven inferior chakras called atala, vitala, sutala, talatala, rasatala, mahatala and the lowest is patala and nadis are situated in their legs which flow to their confluence point at muladhar chakra just as the nadis in our body flow to ajna chakra. Just as muladhara is the lowest chakra in the human body, patala is the lowest in the animal kingdom and it represents total darkness, where nature is not functioning and matter is completely dormant and static.
Chakras above sahasrara represent the higher divine conciousness. Sahasrara is the highest in human evolution and the first step in the highest divine evolution. How are the Lokas and the life within these lokas described in the shastras.
Don’t we see the behavioural pattern and psychology of a person unfolding here?
Kundalini is the shakti said to control every affair of life. When it passes through the animal stages of evolution, it influences the whole species with avidya or ignorance and the animal kingdom is compelled to follow the tamasic phase of eating, sleeping, fearing and mating. From muladhara onward we pass through the rajasic phase and from sahasrara onward we enter the sattvic. Upto muladhar, evolution is automatic. Prakriti controls them completely and benevolently, as they don’t think and have no power of realisation.
Can we relate these with actual manifestations in a native?
Once kundalini or primordial shakti, reaches muladhara, evolution is no longer spontaneous as man finds awareness of time and space, and he gets an ego. He has a higher consciousness and he has to work towards his evolution. That is why it is said that kundalini is sleeping in muladhara chakra and for further progress beyond this point it has to be pushed.
Within their range of chakras, all individuals within the species are at different levels on the scale of evolution due to their progress in previous lives, or the sadhana and sanskars. e.g someone might have kundalini in anahata at birth, and its ascension should start from there. But we can’t remember our previous lives, so we also forget about the state and level of the our kundalini.
Can’t we try and locate this point in the chart?
People born with awakened chakras and kundalini appear to be are superior people in different aspects of life, depending upon the level of achievement. They may be great musicians, artists, scientists, research scholars, inventors, prophets, statesmen, etc. Children born with higher shakti may show different manifestations as they grow up. However, our materialistic societies consider these manifestations as abnormal and those who display them are subjected to psychoanalysis and psychological scrutiny and treatment.
How do we see this in the horoscope? Is R/K axis a pointer to this development?
