love astrology

Relationships are one of the most important areas of life. Love Horoscopes are often shunned in this modern world due to the degradaton of astrology. But not so fast.

The relationship of masculine and feminine energy happens both internally as well as externally. The external relationship with our partner mirrors the internal relationship we have with these forces within ourself. Vedic relationship astrology is a remarkable blend science, commonsense ideas and holistic wisdom. Improving our external relationship, we improve our internal awareness and vice versa. Vedic astrology is deeply connected to the other Vedic sciences of yoga, ayurveda.

Both Western astrology and Vedic astrology uses the same planets, signs and houses. Yet, there are a few major differences between Western and Vedic astrology which reveal why Vedic Relationship astrology is so amazingly accurate.

Whereas Western astrology places importance on the Sun, Vedic astrology places more importance on the Moon. Vedic astrology uses 27 distant stars (called “Nakshatras”) in the horoscope.

The Sun refers to our individual nature, not our desire to partner. Thus relationship compatibility must revolve around the moon, the planet of nurturing, vulnerability and receptivity. Vedic relationship astrology focuses mainly on the moons of the couple. Assessing the moons will reveal the flow of emotional energy and the quality of love flowing in the partnership. The moon is the planet of trust and comfort. It is related to our childhood, that time in life we are we were vulnerable. Based on this vulnerability we developed strengths, insecurities and complexes based on receiving things that felt good or bad. Throughout our life these strengths and weaknesses are modified, artfully filtering our perceptions and attracting the experiences we feel ready to receive. We carry this fragile emotional psychology into our relationships. This is why when a person has a difficult childhood, they will repeat those difficulties in their relationships. It is because the Moon is what we are comfortable with, what is familiar to us. If turmoil is comfortable to us, that is what we seek in relationships. Astrologically, these emotional habits are shown by the Moon.

Vedic astrology uses 27 lunar signs as mentioned above. These 27 signs focus the subtle, refined emotional nature of each person with much more precision than 12 Western Sun signs. Yet within this increased precision there is even more refinement.

The “Ashta Kuta” (eight points) system classifies and compares each of these 27 archetypes based on more than ten criteria: (There are the 8 point giving Kutas and several other important comparisons)

* Friendliness with the other person’s Moon ruler

* Temperament

* Sexual compatibility

* Vocation and caste

* Element and style (fiery, watery or airy)

* Capacity for receptivity and forgiveness

* Capacity to manifest externally as a couple, etc.

All of these criteria are actually applied to every planet in the chart adding a 10 fold strength just to the surface of Vedic Astrological compatibility. Through this subtlety it is possible to examine each planet.

In relationships the Planets show:

Sun - Our independence in the relationship

Moon - Our abolity to feel relaxed, open and comfortable with another

Mars - Our strong ideas of how things should or shouldn’t be in the relationship

Mercury - Our capacity to communicate and be flexible

Jupiter - Our common philosophies and principles, like values and religion

Venus - Our desire to experience pleasure with the partner and how we behave once the partner stops fulfilling us.

Saturn - Our need to feel safe, have proper boundaries and put in the necessary effort with the partner.

This system shows the subtleties in all human interactions, not just romantic relationships. It reveals why, perhaps you and your boyfriend have a good sex life, but cannot manifest anything outside of the bedroom. (High Gana Kuta, low Bhava Kuta). Or perhaps you share many interests in common but there is no spark, (High Graha Maitram, Low Yoni Kuta). Or maybe you do fine, but as soon as a problem occurs, it is like a whirlpool sucks you down. (High Ashta Kuta points with Vedha or Rajju blemish)

To review:

* Vedic relationship astrology emphasizes the Moon, not the Sun

* Vedic relationship astrology uses 27 stars (Nakshatras) to delineate the planets with much more precision than twelve Sun Signs

* Vedic relationship astrology looks at the 27 Star signs using a ten-fold method, which sees the subtle affects of each station in life.

This incredible level of accuracy is why they started arranging marriages thousands of years ago. It was not to oppress, it was to liberate and to help. It is no different than a nutritionist telling you what food is best for you or a counselor telling you which type of activities to avoid for increased peace and mental health. Once we learn to trust the universe again and restore the dignity to astrology, these truths will seem any more oppressive than a trusted doctor giving advice. Once rightly understood, Astrology is revealed to be an amazing tool for harmonizing our personal energy with the presiding universal wisdom that is all benevolent and leading us to the truth of who we really are.
