What are the Purposes Of Astrology | Monkvyasa

On the other hand, astrology’s initial goal was to predict a person’s future based on the positions of the planets and the zodiac signs (the 12 astrological constellations) at the time of his or her birth or conception. The foundational methods of astrology were created from this field known as genethlialogy (casting nativities). General, catechismal, and interrogatory are the three primary branches of astrology that emerged following genealogy.

General astrology investigates the connections between social groups, nations, or all of mankind and key astronomical events (such as the vernal equinox, eclipses, or planetary conjunctions). It provides astrological explanations to queries the bru had previously been asked in Mesopotamia.

Whether or not a chosen moment is astrologically favourable for the success of a course of action started in it is determined by catarchic (pertaining to beginnings or sources) astrology. It basically goes against a strict interpretation of genealogy because it enables the person (or corporate body) to operate during astrologically favourable times and avoid any failures implied by nativity.

Based on the heavenly conditions at the time the client asks the questions, interrogatory astrology responds to the client’s inquiries. This astrological counselling service necessitates that the astrologer undergo ritual purification and preparation since it is even more removed from determinism than catarchic astrology.

Other types of astrology are variations on one or more of the aforementioned, such as iatromathematics (the application of astrology to medicine) and military astrology.

Historical development

Astral omens in the ancient Middle East

The astral omens used in Mesopotamian divination were later incorporated into what is now known as astrology in the traditional sense and formed the basis of a subfield of astrology called natural astrology. The cuneiform work Enma Anu Enlil, which is devoted to celestial omina, began during the first dynasty of Babylon (18th to 16th centuries BC), even though lunar eclipses appear to have been viewed as foreboding at a considerably earlier period. However, this series’ ultimate compilation and codification were not finished until the start of the first millennium BC. A standard version, however, never existed, according to the tablets that have survived, the majority of which are from King Ashurbanipal’s (7th century BC) Assyrian library. Each copy featured a distinct layout and contents that were intended to make it easier for the owner to consult the omens.

The four major categories that the Enma Anu Enlil omens were divided into were named after the four main deities who were involved in the ominous communication: Sin, Shamash, Adad, and Ishtar. Omens related to the Moon’s earliest crescents, eclipses, haloes, and conjunctions with certain fixed stars can be found in Sin (the Moon); Sun-related occurrences like eclipses, the simultaneous observation of two suns, and perihelia (additional suns) are dealt with by Shamash (the Sun) as omens; Ishtar (Venus) contains omens relating to planetary phenomena such as first and last visibilities, stations (the points at which the planets appear to stand still), acronychal risings (rising of the planet in the east when the Sun sets in the west), and conjunctions with the fixed stars. Adad (the weather god) is concerned with omens relating to meteorological phenomena, such as earthquakes, thunder, lightning, and cloud formations. Although this network of watchers was formed throughout the Assyrian kingdom in the 7th century BC, their reports frequently mention these omens, they appear to have fallen out of favour by the conclusion of the Persian era’s rule over Mesopotamia (ending in the 4th century BC). The right linkages between celestial phenomena and terrestrial events were afterwards sought out in numerous writings collectively referred to as the Diaries. The Achaemenid dynasty controlled Persia from 559 to 330 BC. Prior to this evolution, however, parts of the ancient omen series were directly conveyed to Egypt, Greece, and India as a result of their dominance of these cultural areas or of their border regions.

Astral omens in Egypt, Greece, India, and China

An ancient demotic papyrus based on an original from around 500 BC provides the bulk of the evidence supporting the transfer of lunar omens to Egypt during the Achaemenid period. The remnants of a treatise written in Greek in the second century BC and allegedly addressed to a King Nechepso by the priest Petosiris point to a more comprehensive usage of Mesopotamian heavenly omens.The second book of the Apotelesmatika, or “Work on Astrology,” by Ptolemy, a Greek astronomer of the second century AD; the first book of an astronomical compendium, by Hephaestion of Thebes, a Greco-Egyptian astrologer of the fifth century AD; and the On Signs of John Lydus, a Byzantine bureaucrat of the sixth century AD, all included material from Enma AnuThe Magusaeans of Asia Minor, a group of Iranian settlers influenced by Babylonian ideals, provided another another route of transmission to the Greeks. Several Classical books on natural history, especially those of Pliny the Elder (c. AD 23–79) and the Geoponica, contain their lessons (a late collection of agricultural lore).

Numerous works on heavenly omens also exist in various Middle Eastern languages, though it is still unknown where they came from and whether they are directly related to Mesopotamian culture or came from Greek or Indian intermediates.The most significant of these writings are those that the Harranians attribute to Hermes Trismegistus and are now preserved in Arabic, the Book of the Zodiac of the Mandaeans (a Gnostic sect still active in Iraq and Khuzistan), the Apocalypse, which is attributed to the biblical prophet Daniel and is still in existence in Greek, Syriac, and Arabic versions, and The Book of the Bee in Syriac.

During the Achaemenid occupation of the Indus valley in the fifth century BC, it appears that Mesopotamian omen literature, including the material in Enma Anu Enlil, was transmitted to India. Buddhist missionaries played a significant role in bringing this information to Central Asia, China, Tibet, Japan, and Southeast Asia. The earliest indications of this knowledge may be found in Buddhist literature from this time. But the earliest iteration of the as-yet-unpublished Gargasamhita (“Compositions of Garga”), which dates to around the first century AD, is the most significant of these Indian texts and the oldest one still in existence in Sanskrit. The original Mesopotamian text was changed to conform to the Indian social structure, which included the four-caste system and the upper castes’ obligation to carry out the samskaras (sanctifying ceremonies).

The Brhatsamhita, or “Great Composition,” of Varahamihira (circa 550), the Jain Bhadrabahu-Samhita, or “Composition of Bhadrabahu,” (circa 10th century), and the Parishishtas (“Supplements”) of the Atharvaveda (possibly 10th or 11th century), are the most notable later collections of omens in Sanskrit, though these add little, However, there is a significant infusion of Arabic adaptations of the ancient Mesopotamian celestial omens as conveyed through Persian (Tjika) translations in the works titled Tjika from the 13th century and afterwards. In the older Sanskrit works, the omens’ links with astrology had mostly been in the areas of military and catarchic astrology; however, in Tjika, they are strongly related to general astrology.

Know Your Soul Purpose With Your Big 3

It's been so much time since I've been here, but it's amazing to be back! Now, here's a topic I was wondering about today...

All our configurations hold divine meaning, in that before we are born, our souls chose the type of experiences we needed to undergo as part of our next visit on Earth. What makes us "us" is perfect in design. And what we're "made of" can be neatly seen in our birth charts. No birth nor birth chart happen by chance.

While it’s accurate that specific karmic work (which is part of our life's mission) is indicated by studying the positions of Saturn, its aspects, planets falling in water houses and the configuration of lunar nodes, I feel we can also find great part our soul's purpose (our main lessons) by analyzing our Big 3. This is equal to drawing a picture of the blueprint of our unique navigation system, our compasses through our human experience.

To make a draft of your soul's blueprint, take these steps!

Look at your chart to know your Ascendant, Sun and Moon signs and chart ruler(s). If your rising sign has two rulers, take them both into account. In my case, I always use whole sign system.

Identify the houses of your placements.

Start drafting your Ascendant, Sun and Moon signs' significations using the tables below, including both positive and negative traits. If we're moving through life based mostly on our positive qualities, it's very likely we're on the right track. Conversely, living constantly under the influence of our negative traits marks potential blockages to get where we need to be.

Add to your blueprint areas in which you naturally express your placement's traits (houses). This is important because you will know where your mission will be accomplished more easily or naturally.

Have fun!

If you're having a bit of trouble to come up with yours, take my own example...

I am proud of myself when I present to the world as passionate, powerful, magnetic, and intuitive (positive Scorpio rising qualities). I realize that when I become vengeful, jealous, obsessive and/or mournful (negative Scorpio rising qualities), I am attracting unnecessarily challenging circumstances that hinder my lessons in my life. My personality (rising sign) projects most in my physical appearance image and identity, in my close communities and in the pursuit of my dreams (Chart Rulers in 1st and 11th house). I feel my life has meaning when I act as a nurturing, sensitive, creative and empathetic person (positive traits of Cancer sun), but when I become needy, emotionally instable, insecure and/or manipulating with others (negative traits of Cancer sun), I realize that I am blocking myself from living in my fullest potential. The area where my conscious self (Sun sign) shines most is in my path towards higher learning, distant travelling, truth seeking, legal affairs and spirituality (Sun in 9th house). I feel safe and fulfilled when I can be brave, independent, assertive and passionate (positive Moon in Aries traits). But, when I realize that I'm repeatedly reacting in a violent, selfish, impulsive and/or inconstant way (negative Moon in Aries traits), I know that am blocking my ability to be peaceful within myself and move ahead in life. My emotional needs (Moon sign) are best taken care of through my habits, health care, daily routine, service to others, jobs, and pets (Moon in the 6th house).

Now, what information can you derive from this description? What does this tell about my purpose in this life?

Naturally, I am pulled to creative, healing and spiritual work. I studied Industrial Design in college, but I've expanded my career in other directions, including developing and managing intermittently art and esoteric online businesses while also holding an office job in Change Management. I am also the eternal student, self-learning and passionate about higher knowledge. I like to share my insights with others and help them find their own truth, their own awakening. I am drawn to intense (and sometimes not so positive) experiences and relationships, and have drastically changed my own image, jobs and spiritual views along the years. I've certainly went through a lot of turmoil, but also have gained significant life lessons and valuable wisdom thanks to the way I approach life. I cannot help to be deeply emotional, empathetic, passionate, excitable, idealistic and inspired, for the good and the bad! Even though it's not been an easy road, I realize that little by little my purpose is being fulfilled... and I hope you all do!

What about you? Let me know what you find out about yourself!

Thanks for reading! 😘🖤

Major Saturn transits initiate soul contracts and void them at completion

Saturn is the individual wise guide, the private inner saint who holds us to the Divine World, and values our existence astoundingly. An observer whose unrelenting expectations seem beyond reach,

but this Higher Self knows the code, and the treasures that we keep. The passage of time's vigilant reminder, the voice of absolute reason that speaks louder than thunder. The inescapable judge of our own wrong from right, the one who exalts our greatness and immortalised it in the night. As the archetypal guardian, mentor, and wise inner teacher. Turning inward and accomplishing the outward, self-knowledge is the ultimate goal, Saturn keeps the promises that you once made to yourself. The failings that are no longer regrets, the mistakes that eventually made you

and always, the greatest ally you'll ever have in life."

personal observation: if any of your asteroids/fixed stars falls in an empty house in your chart, it kind of lights up that house with its energy. it makes sense from an earthly perspective: if the planets are not at a specific point in the night sky, you’d be able to see all the stars in the dark.

but hey, take it if it’s accurate for you 💞 and comment/reblog asteroids you think get highlighted in your chart :)

The magical love of the twin flames

The spiritual world is far more interesting that what we might probably think.

We heard a lot about the concept of soulmates, those souls who are always in our journey and can be from our parents, siblings, friends and even our pets. A soulmate is not just one soulmate who shares a bond with us but in fact the number of soulmates we have is difficult to know.

The twin flame on the other hand is our other half with an intense soul connection. Is the opposite of our soul but with the same essence. Let's make the example by this: we have a pizza. There are not other pizza made in such way and the ingredients are so unique. In the moment we cut it in two pieces, the ingredients are still unique but each left with different proportions of those ingredients. The two pieces are different but still the same.

The two parts go in different paths and journey but belong to each other. Both pieces can't stop but trying to find away to return back to the other.

I was a helpless in love about love even if I was always single and I remember always dreaming about the moment I could find that other half of me. I am alway very receptive when I go to sleep and is in the dream realm where I get most of my prophetic dreams. One night asking about that other part of me, I had a dream. My Twin Flame was with me, he was giving me the strongest hug that it felt even after I woke up. I couldn't see his face, only that was a very tall and strong shadow.

Where one can find our Twin Flame in Astrology?

As i am on my big journey in this amazing study of astrology I believe the information about our Twin Flame can be found in the Draconic Chart but we have to understand something and not everyone have a Twin Flame. That is because some souls haven't the experience yet of the separation. In those cases the Draconic Chart, depending of the individual, represents a past life or the soul journey.

That is because there are some souls who doesn't have a past life and they have their first time coming on earth. Just like in my case while using the Norns asteroids of the past, present and future. My past and my present is the same, showing me that this is my first time here. Also why my dominant planet in my birth chart is Pluto, I am having a non stop transformation (as if my soul is trying to catch up with the old souls who have more reincarnations).

Having your Twin Flame in the Draconic Chart also doesn't mean the person will have to go and search for the meeting, that is because sometimes one of the half can be on earth (material world) while the other can be on the spiritual world. Sometimes the life purpose is to learn and develop independently on earth.

The only important here about the Twin Flames is the unique and strong love of the two souls.

i’m making astrological charts for the characters now and i think the way to go (for me at least) is to place the birth year in 1974 (kishimoto’s birth year). i think this fits better with the setting than to make it 1986 or 1999, which feel way too late.

🌞🏝Sun and your purpose

Sun represents your inspiration and purpose. Things that inspire you and are close to you. Things that give you hope and light in life. Your great joy. Where do you enjoy yourself and in what way? It also represents the purpose you have. Where should you shine and where will you shine the most in life. Your bright ways and points. What drives you forward and what gives you light. You will find light where you have the sun! Follow the sun🌞🌊🦋

🌞Sun in 1st house- empowers a person with strong will and determination. They should be more knowledgeable of who they really are if they want a purposeful and meaningful life. Your journey is one of continual self-discovery. Along the way, you are likely to gain greatest recognition by forging your own path.

✨Sun in 2nd house- your purpose is to find your value, to enjoy beauty & beauty things. It’s important for these natives to appreciate the value of people and relationships, not only the one of wealth. You have to find a path that will have a balance between you and material things. Your challenge is to learn to trust the flow of resources available to you, knowing when to let go and when to share what you have gained.

🥝Sun in 3rd house- Your purpose is to tell people something, to leave a message. To put words into something meaningful. They are sharp yet upright and filled with a high sense of ambition and pride. The natives are also endowed with a stable strong will which makes them self-reliant. You may enjoy gathering data, ideas, information and facts, which you then disseminate freely. Your challenge is to learn to focus yourself on what is in front of you in order to develop your understanding.

🌟Sun in 4th house- You will find inspiration with your family and your goal is to make a comfortable life for yourself. They plan their life ahead and are great at developing strategies for themselves. They become better with age because their true self comes to display as they get older. You may find that your family life matters more to you than your professional world, and find yourself making choices that prioritise home. You may also be fascinated by heritage and history.

🥥Sun in 5th house- You will find your purpose and inspiration in things that are fun for you. Dancing and playing can bring you a lot of luck. Enjoying your own happiness. You will feel the best when you are spotlight. Sun here will also endow the natives with some special abilities. Presenting yourself and your talents is your purpose. Show who you are.

🌴Sun in 6th house- Your purpose is to serve others. You will be happiest when you help others. Animals can be very close to your heart and give you a lot of inspiration. Health will be important to you, following a healthy lifestyle and routine will fulfill your life. You may also be drawn to nutrition, health and healing. In time, you learn to teach others the art of refinement, self-improvement and organization.

🍰Sun in 7th house- relationship and marriage will be a big part of your life. Your purpose and inspiration is to find someone with whom you can share your happiness. Pursue romance and share romance with others. Justice is very important to you and proving the truth and sharing the truth with others is important to you.

🦋Sun in 8th house- The arena of power and transformation.

Understanding the depth and following the depth of emotions is meaningful for you. You will feel the best in the depth of your emotions. The transformation will be great for you. You may also be fascinated by mysteries, psychology and magic. By facing the truth about yourself and others you teach transformation and the capacity to redefine challenging situations.

Maybe you feel the best when you travel. Maybe you have a favorite place that you always want to go to. When you believe in something, it is like a meaning in your life. I think that these people are meant to live in foreign country because there they will find what they are looking for. You seeing life as a source of opportunities. You may be fascinated by travel and foreign places, seeking to discover what else exists in the world. Your challenge is to develop discernment about what you believe, and to accept present limitations.

🍹Sun in 10th house- You are gifted with an innate ability to manage or lead. You remind others of the need to be accountable through taking responsibility for yourself. Your purpose is to become something. Living the seen life. It’s like they’ve been born for nobility and for inspiring others to be greater people. You will find your inspiration through your career and audience.

🐚Sun in 11th house- makes for someone who is extremely open-minded, with a soft spot for underdogs and humanitarian efforts. They also likely value originality and being different and are interested in meeting all kinds of different people. Your inspiration are your friends. They will make you feel your best. It’s like their energy is obtained with the help of their friends, so the support of others is of utmost importance for them. Also couldn’t be happy with only one or two people around them.

🌊Sun in 12th house- Your purpose is to find the subconscious and confront it. Inspiration is found in spirituality. Having this special inner world makes them great artists. Your subconscious mind can help you understand yourself better. Maybe you will feel the best when you are alone, doing something that will bring you joy. Your purpose is to spend time alone. Anything related to astrology and spiritual things will give you greater joy. Maybe also something to do with water or ocean.
