life credit-- is connected to friends and groups, but it’s also connected to enlightenment<br />
and spiritual growth. This is because the ruler of the 5 th house Capricorn is in the 12 th<br />
house and it is well aspected, so there will be a lot of evolution in this lifetime. Mercury<br />
is the best period for your career. In fact, I would say Mercury dasa is probably one of the<br />
best periods that you’ll have in your life—but it’ll come later.<br />
[Bill: “Are there particularly afflicted planets in my chart?”]<br />
I think Mars and Jupiter are afflicted but they haven’t caused real problems s far.<br />
They haven’t caused health problems or problems with marriage. What about jealous<br />
people? Not so far? The Mars is afflicted by being with Ketu. Mars rules the 3 rd house<br />
[Scorpio] and maybe you wanted to be in the arts but it was held back, and that would be<br />
why. Or a problem with a brother or sister [Bill had a problem with his younger brother].<br />
His life would be afflicted according to Mars ruling the 3 rd being with Ketu, so it would<br />
spoil that house to some degree and show some difficulty to him. And it’s also why if you<br />
have musical ability but didn’t do it as a career, that would be one of the main reasons<br />
(Mars being with Ketu). Looking at the Western [tropical]chart you have this tremendous<br />
Venus trine Mars and Moon, but it doesn’t come out as a career—yet, at any rate.<br />

VEDIC ASTROLOGER # 3:<br />
In Vedic astrology, your rising sign [22 Libra 7 in western tropical format]<br />
becomes late Virgo [28 Virgo 57]. So Mercury would now rule your Ascendant [Lagna]<br />
and probably the real strength in this chart, as I see it, is your Mercury. You’ve got a<br />
really strong Mercury.<br />
It has a little bit more of a 10 th house influence in the rasi [natal or birth] chart<br />
with Mercury in the 10 th . Career has to be, if possible, in the field of intellectual growth.<br />
It can be communications, writing, counseling, teaching, consulting, advising—any kind<br />
of Mercurial activities is really pronounced in this chart. Not only that, you have the ruler<br />
of the 10 th [Gemini sign ruled by Mercury] in the 10 th which is really good for as person<br />
to have, if possible, their own career, to be –best as possible—independent. You can<br />
work with people but sometimes it makes it a little more difficult to work for people<br />
because you have kind of what I would call a little bit of a Promethean chart—of bring<br />
fire to earth, wanting to bring change, wanting to bring innovation. That’s partially due or<br />
shown in western astrology by that Uranus fairly close to Mercury and the Sun as well.<br />
So I was thinking of Uranus being like a Promethean planet. I like to use the outer planets<br />
even though they are not used in traditional Vedic astrology because I feel that they are<br />
important.<br />
[Bill: As long as no Vedic god sends a bolt of lightning at you!”]<br />
Right! You got it! But there are a number of teachers from India that I have<br />
met—not a lot—who use the outer planets and acknowledge that they exist!<br />
[Bill: “Wow, how modern of them!”]<br />
Right! But as you know, you have this combination of Mercury-Uranus-Sun all in<br />
Gemini in Vedic astrology (Mercury is still in Gemini in western astrology since it is late<br />
Gemini).<br />
Now: It’s actually too bad it’s not happening a little earlier in your life but I just<br />
want to point out that later in your life you go into a whole Mercury cycle or dasa.<br />
