Fierceness of rains may subside after Aslesha Njattuvela

On Aug 2, at night, Aslesha Njattuvela began. It is said Ayilya Kallan Akatho Puratho, meaning that is Aslesha Sol, the villain, within or without ! It is the centuries old experience of Keralites that rains will be there, but may lose their fierceness, the fierceness exhibited by the Mrigasira, Aridra, Punarvasu and Pushya Suns !

But here rains have not abated and torrential rain has damaged many parts of Kerala. The dams are overflowing !

The Retreating Monsoon will take over on Oct 17 and rains will be there till Dec 15, till Jyeshta Njattuvela, but the fierceness of Mrigasira, Aridra, Punarvasu and Pushya will be missing !

Jove in the 12th adversely affects Indian Economy !

Look at May stats

24 billion - 44 billion = -20 billion !

Deficit is going up. By this rate, the deficit will be more than 200 billion !

The Big Auto companies are moving to Indonesia and Thailand, due to the sluggish market growth in India ! 

Honda, Toyota, Nissan and Ford are going to invest 24000 cr in Indonesia and 10000 cr in Thailand. High interest rates in India and lack of Indian Government's incentives to trigger sales, while Indonesia and Thailand are giving lots of incentives to car purchasers ! Comparitively India will only get 14000 cr by 2016, way behind her competitors !

Saturn in the Fourth is also bad and the two major planets are at the moment unfavorable for India. 

India hard pressed to defend reputation of being World Champions !

Now India is in the Carribean and two powerful teams are getting at them, the WI and SL !

Dhoni admits that expectations are high for India. The Indian fans want more victories and this will be difficult to give. You cant win all matches all the time. But Young India is very fit, to take challenges. Dhoni has gone on record that a gutsy player is better than a skilled player. Mental toughness is all that counts. 

WI meet SL today for the first match, which begins at 0800 PM IST.






For India, Shikhar Dhawan is now more experienced, wiser and stronger ! Is the the true replacement for Sehwag ? Time alone will tell.

Aridra Njattuvela also devastates !

The Dance of Destruction of the SW Monsoon continues. It is raining cats and dogs here in Guruvayur.

Chalakudy River is overflowing 

Fishermen are warned not to venture into the sea and Trawling is banned. Now the Sun is transiting Aridra and this is known as Thiruvathira Njattuvela in Kerala. 10 days, 10 nights, meaning that there will be sufficient rains with sunny interludes. The Dance of Destruction done by the Head of Orion, Mriga Sira, the samhara thandava of Mriga Sira is gone, replaced  by the still fierce Aridra or Roudra Njattuvela. Njayar means Sun and Velas are  periods, meaning that they are the periods of the Sun. 

On 5 Jul, the Punarvasu Njattuvela will begin and on 19th, the Pushya Njattuvela.

Sargalaya, the Kerala Crafts Village !

A Crafts Village has been set up near Chaliyar River, in Kozhikode, by the Kerala Tourism Department. Sargalaya called, it focusses on bulding a destination for tourists and an interaction between artisans and tourists. 

Kerala's traditional crafts will be made an integral part of the experience of the tourist. Built on a plot of 20 acres, amidst calm, green surroundings, Sargalaya incorporates the beauty of Monsoon Kerala, the Damsel who puts on a Green Silk Saree, as poets describe Kerala. It has 27 cottages, where the artisans can work.

 It has a Crafts Design & Techonology Development Center which imparts training to artisans, encouraging innovation.

The Heavens indicated brutal events !

Actually, Astrology is not a predictive science. We say everything is known only to the Lord. People think astrologers are ominiscient and no mortal is omniscient !

People ask why didnt the astrologers predict tsunamis? I told them that it is not the duty of the astrologer to predict tsunamis. We are not gods !

Nature is dualistic, that is she has both destructive and creative aspects. In Her destructive aspect, She is Kali and in Her creative aspect, She is Sarawathi. The Hindu sees Her in the sweetness of Saraswathi, the laughter of Krishna and the terror of Kali. Lord Krishna says in the BG that I am the all Devouing Death, Mrityu sarva haraschaham.

The astrologer is wise only after the event. I pointed out the SWM has a destructive aspect too. Hundreds of houses were devoured by the sea. Theare are again merits and demerits of having a sea nearby. When monsoon floods come, the blockages can be removed and the water can be allowed to flow into the sea. Last week this was done in Kerala.  We have an estuary in Chavakkad, the Chavakkad Azhimugham, where the Chettuva River merges into the sea. On the other hand, there are possibilities of oceanic attacks and tsunamis, if you are living near the coast.

When people asked me about the Kedarnath tragedy ( what is your astro explanation ! ), I told them Astrology is an indicative science. Not an omniscient science, as Theology and Cosmology say. What do you see ? The Sun was in Mriga Sira. The Head of the Beast, the Head of Orion ! Beast, brute, brutal. Planetary influences on Mundane Affairs state that some brutal event is happening on earth. That is the astro reading. The astrologer is not omniscient, but the heavens were brimming with pessimistic prophecies. Then the next question will be asked, does this always happen during the solar transit of Mriga Sira ? The fierce rains in Mriga Sira Njattuvela normally wreaks havoc. Again, Astrology is not a physical science, it is a mystical science.

Predicting events using the Kerala Njattuvela Calendar in other parts is not Wisdom. For instance, we cannot say that during Mriga Sira or any other Njauttuvela, it will rain in TN. since TN does not get SWM.  May be there are sporadic rains. These Njattuvelas are specific to Kerala.
