Nostradamus Predictions: The Secret Code - Part 2/3

An Introduction to Vedic Astrology


Vedic Astrology is the study of positions of heavenly bodies like Sun, Moon, Mars etc. with respect to the zodiac and the interpretation of the effect of such heavenly bodies on the events in the life of an individual or a country or the whole world. It is called Vedic Astrology, because the principles on which the study and interpretations are made were first enumerated in the 'Vedas' - the first treatise of ancient Hindu philosophy.

What is Zodiac?

If we imagine a path in the sky at approximately 18 degrees arc in the width encircling the earth in an east west direction, groups of stars will appear to be apparently fixed with respect to earth along this imaginary path. There are 27 groups of stars in the path which are recognized by Vedic Astrology. These groups of stars in the imaginary path are called zodiac. This zodiac forms the reference for fixing up the position of any planet or star in the sky. Since this zodiac is encircling the earth it can be measured as 360 degrees, where these 27 groups of stars are evenly placed, hence each of them have a span of 360 degrees/27 = 13 degrees 20' arc.

What are Zodiac Signs or Rashis?

When the zodiac is divided into 12 equal parts each having a span of 30 degrees arc, then each of this arc is called a zodiac sign. A sign, therefore, will consist of 2 ¼ groups of stars. A particular group of stars called Ashwini, in the zodiac is considered the starting point of the zodiac and is called the star no.1. Similarly, there are individual name for the 26 group of stars. Ashwini (1), Bharini (2), Krittika (3) are the first three stars in the zodiac. As stated earlier, the first span of 30 degrees arc in the zodiac will consist of Ashwini, Bharini and ¼ of Krittika constitute the first zodiac sign called 'Aries'. The name of the remaining 11 zodiac signs after 'Aries' are: Taurus (2), Gemini (3), Cancer (4), Leo (5), Virgo (6), Libra (7), Scorpio (8), Sagittarius (9), Capricorn (10), Aquarius (11) and Pisces (12).

What are Rahu and Ketu?

Moon's apparent path around the earth intersects the ecliptic obliquely at two points called the 'Nodes'. The point where the Moon crosses the ecliptic from south to north is called the ascending node or 'Rahu' when it crosses the ecliptic from north to south is called the descending node or 'Ketu'. These 2 points are 6 zodiac signs or 180 degrees apart. The positions of these two points with respect to zodiac signs are of equal importance to position of other planets with respect to zodiac sign in Vedic astrology.

What is Ascendant/Rising Sign?

The ecliptic passes through the center of the zodiacal belt which extends 9 degrees on its either (north or south) side. The planets remain within the limits of the zodiac. The earth rotates around its axis once in twenty- four hours from west to east. As a consequence, all planets appear to revolve around the earth from east to west once in twenty four hours. The zodiac with its stars and signs fixed upon it also appears to revolve around the earth from east to west once in every 24 hours. Thus, all points on signs and stars on the zodiac will appear to successfully rise in the eastern horizon and set at the western horizon once in 24 hours. Thus, for every point and time on earth there will be a unique point on a particular zodiac sign which will be rising at the eastern horizon.
When an individual is born, the point in the particular zodiac sign, expressed in longitude, which is rising at the eastern horizon at the exact time of his/her birth for the exact latitude/longitude of the place where he/she is born is the unique space time coordinate for the individual. This is called the individual's Ascendant (Lagna) or the Rising Sign.

What is Janma Rashi/ Moon Sign/Moon Ascendant?

In Vedic Astrology, the exact position of the Moon at the exact time of birth with respect to the zodiac sign and the point in the zodiac sign expressed in longitudes will be Janma Rashi/ Moon Sign/ Moon Ascendant.

What is Sun Sign/ Sun Ascendant?

Like the Moon sign, the longitude of Sun with respect to zodiac at the exact time of birth is the Sun Sign of the individual. Western astrology lays great importance on Sun signs and ALL YOUR ZODIAC SIGNS are your Sun signs as per Vedic astrology. The Sun sign on the basis of Western astrology and Vedic Astrology will differ by one sign many a times. This is because as per Western astrology the zodiac is also moving, whereas, the Vedic astrologers consider the zodiacs to be fixed. The reason why this difference comes will be explained on the web page at a later date. Meanwhile, we are just mentioning this so that you do not get alarmed to see the difference in the zodiac sun signs when computed by the Vedic astrology.

The Western Zodiac Equivalent to the Chinese Zodiac Signs


Chinese Astrology has its own Zodiac symbols as does Western Astrology. Oftentimes it is very difficult for one to decipher and understand how the zodiac sybmols of Chinese and Western Astrology relate to each other. In the Chinese Zodiac, there are 12 animal signs. These 12 signs are, in order: Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig. Each one of these Chinese Zodiac signs embody their own personality.

For example, the Rat in Chinese Astrology, is known to be mentally sharp and always on the go. Rats are known to be the creative type who tend to think outside the box. If there is any protest, movement, or party, Rats are often in the middle of things since people tend to be drawn to the charming nature of the Rat. They also tend to think well on their feet. For all the positives of the Rat, their negatives are that they can be too impulsive and not patient enough with others who need more time to digest situations or who are more rational. So it is easy to be a friend of the Rat, but it is considerably more difficult to be a Rat's close friend.

So the Rat in the Chinese Zodiac is akin to the Sagittarius in the Western Zodiac.

The Ox in the Chinese Zodiac is akin to the Capricorn in the Western Zodiac.

The Tiger in the Chinese Zodiac is akin to the Aquarius in the Western Zodiac.

The Rabbit in the Chinese Zodiac is akin to the Pisces in the Western Zodiac.

The Dragon in the Chinese Zodiac is akin to the Aries in the Western Zodiac.

The Snake in the Chinese Zodiac is akin to the Taurus in the Western Zodiac.

The Horse in the Chinese Zodiac is akin to the Gemini in the Western Zodiac.

The Sheep in the Chinese Zodiac is akin to the Cancer in the Western Zodiac.

The Monkey in the Chinese Zodiac is akin to the Leo in the Western Zodiac.

The Rooster in the Chinese Zodiac is akin to the Virgo in the Western Zodiac.

The Dog in the Chinese Zodiac is akin to the Libra in the Western Zodiac.

Finally, the Pig in the Chinese Zodiac is akin to the Scorpio in the Western Zodiac.

How to Chose Your Tarot Cards Deck?


I simply love divining. Tarot cards are a great way to divine; naturally you want the best set of tarot cards. You want a personal set that expresses you. There are many different tarot card designs to choose from. Here are some tips, whether you are new or seasoned to tarot.

* Themes
Tarot cards can be found with many themes. These themes can be for love, wealth, spiritual growth and many countless other themes. As many tarot card makers there are, that is likely how many different themes you can find!

Choosing a tarot card by a theme is down to preferences. You may choose a set because of what you will be using the set for, most often. For new diviners or new tarot card readers, a themed set of tarot cards may not be the best option. A general Rider Waite tarot card set may prove more beneficial.

* Differences
There are differences between sets of cards. The tarot cards images are symbols which have meaning and touch the subconscious. The tarot card which most people refer to with tarot is that of the Rider Waite set by Pamela Coleman Smith and Arthur Edward Waite. Ultimately they all work, as divining works.

* To buy cheap or expensive
This is by far a big question asked by many. Is there any difference between buying a more expensive set or a cheaper set? The truth is that they both work equally well. They both can give you accurate readings.

Tarot cards are a powerful tool to gain insight into topics that are dear to you. They can help you and others find answers which nowhere else seems to provide, in our daily world.

A good tarot card set can provide many years of faithful service, and insight, and help you further your ability in divining.

Online Tarot Psychic Readings


The online tarot cards reading has come alive in the age of the Internet. These modern psychic readings seem to work just fine according to readers and their questioners.

Laying The Cards Down

For many tarot card psychics, a subtle signal is received when the time is right to lay the tarot cards down. It could be a tingle in the hands or a strong feeling that the tarot cards should be laid in their formation. For computerized tarot card readers, they are finding that with the right intent and concentration, tarot card software is capable of delivering amazingly accurate tarot readings if you take it serious and concentrate on your questions.

Even A Virtual Tool Is Better Than Nothing

Tarot card readers are adapting their tarot card skills that they use with the tarot cards to the computer and keyboard. It seems to be that as long as the tarot card reader can connect with their tool of choice that accurate readings are possible even with computers.

When a tarot psychic uses the computer for tarot card readings, the results can be sent to the questioner through the phone, email, instant messages, text and snail mail.

The tarot psychic may use a software program that the psychic has downloaded to their computer. Other tarot psychics may use an online tarot software tool that the psychic accesses from their web browser. A tarot psychic will choose the software that uses the tarot cards that the tarot reader prefers to use. A tarot psychic may use different programs for more tarot card options.

What will Happen in 2012: The Mayan Prophecy


2012 has been termed as the judgment year with many prophecies predicting the end of an era. But that only means the beginning of a new era and a new kind of existence for us.

How do we know if we are aligned for that new era? And what if the future holds changes so drastic that we may not be prepared for? There are so many predictions as to how the world will move towards a more spiritually inclined era after 2012.

No one can know what will happen after 2012. For now, we only know that very few people know the nuances of spiritualism and most of the population is ignorant. But we do have a common understanding, a common opinion; that something in this world is not right.

Why do we think something is wrong? Because our perceptions are distorted by dualism. Dualism is a spiritual term that has been widely misunderstood.

Dualism is a term that means the observer and the observed, which leads to two entities. It refers to there being a ‘me’ and what is not part of that ‘me’.

The distorted perception of the world is cleared when the person reaches enlightenment. Then there is a sudden and radical wake from the dualistic vision and this lets them see the world as it really is; non dual.

To get to the non dual mode is a long time process. It may take years or even lifetimes. But the experience is totally worth the effort. When you reach the non dual stage, the conscious mind is not influenced by the egoistic mind that one normally possesses forming ‘I’, ‘me’ and ‘mine’ impressions.

Will 2012 waken our non dual side? Will we stop being influenced by our dualistic self and start seeing things differently? It remains to be seen.
