Muhurat: Some Important Points To Remember

Muhurat is a particular time of the day, which we know as an auspicious time. However, this is not true. The Muhurat is basically the time duration of 2 Ghatis, which is equivalent to 48 minutes. Read further to know more about Muhurat.

In accordance with the Vedic astrology, two Ghatis that means the time duration of 48 minutes is recognized as 'Muhurat'; but the actual significance of Muhurat is the time when the position of planets is noticed before getting started with anything new. This is done to make sure that the particular duration will prove out to be extremely beneficial for the concerned work. Generally, the process of checking the 'Muhurat' is carried out just to know whether a particular time period for going on with something new is suitable or not.

(Ghati is the traditional Indian value of time, which is used in place of hour. If you want to see the relation between Ghati and hour, please click here - Ghati to Hour Converter)

The most important factor required for the right judgment of Muhurat is the right learning of the subject, but then also, Sun and Moon are considered to be highly important for this astrological calculation. The factors like month, Ayan (period of six months), constellation, day, Tithi (hindu date), Yoga (conjunction), ascendant, Karan and many more are highly dependent on the speed of Sun and Moon. However, the other planets also have their impact on the Muhurat in accordance with their positions. For this reason, the calculation of Muhurat is done in a way that the concerned work or job could prove out to be extremely fruitful for the person.

Bija (seed): These Mantras can be chanted alone, but are often used with Saguna mantras. They correlate to the 7 Chakras and to the Hindu deities.

Saguna (with form): It is believed that reciting Saguna Mantras gives rise to the real form of the deities and manifests power.

Nirguna (without form): Nirguna Mantras are the oldest form of mantras. These Mantras are very difficult to interpret and mind needs to be very strong to concentrate on them.

Progressions In Western Astrology

Many Progressions in Western Astrology have improved the prediction process. Primary directions and secondary directions used in this system have been explained clearly in this article. Ranging from simple methods to complex ones, Western Astrology has seen tremendous upliftment for making predictions. Read on to know more about them. 

Many techniques are used for making predictions. Vedic Astrology uses Shadvarga Charts and the Dasha Systems. Progression is a common technique used for prediction in the Western Astrology. There are various methods of progression techniques. Some use mathematical complex spherical trigonometric equations, which are difficult for the common man to understand. However, some are easy and are done by using simple calculations. Now-a-days, there are many softwares available in the market for calculating the progressed positions of the planets and the aspects they make with the natal positions, for deciphering the birth chart.

Primary Direction

This technique is the most ancient and is widely used by the ancient astrologers. It was the predictive technique used by Placidus. It uses the principle that "earth completes one full rotation around the sun in 24 hrs". Primary directions rest on this basic premise according to which the actual motion of the heaven in the hours following birth brings the planets and other points to significant places in the natal chart and shows the unfolding of events in years to come. Also, each degree of such motion corresponds to approximately one year of life. As the earth turns on its axis, seemingly making the heavens turn around our vantage point, it completes a full circle of 360° in 24 hours, or 1440 minutes. One degree of primary motion therefore equals about 4 minutes of clock time (1440/360 = 4). This 1° motion is symbolically equated with one year, so that every hour after birth covers 15 years of life events. The directions formed to the natal chart within six hours of birth will then correspond to a full 90 years of life; and if a planet were to rise exactly two hours after a person’s birth, we could expect whatever the planet signifies in the chart to manifest around 30 years of age in a way that affects the native’s life, health, body and temperament (signified by the ascendant).

Primary directions have been a major predictive technique of ‘Western’ Astrology for more than 1,500 years. This technique is based on the rotation of Earth around its axis (the primary motion), bringing planets and other chart points to new positions in the sky. Each degree of rotation, takes around 4 minutes and corresponds to one year of life. Every direction has two elements: The significator and the promissor. Significator is considered more passive as determining the area of life concerned and the promissor is considered more active as determining the nature of the event. The correct interpretation of a direction rests on the understanding of each planet’s nature and significance in the natal chart, including its house position, aspects, dignities and rulership. 

Secondary Direction 

Modern astrologers use secondary progressions. Secondary Directions are based on the theory, that since each actual day's revolution of the Earth finds the Sun advanced one degree beyond the point where it was on the preceding day, and since the extra four minutes of rotation required to traverse this degree is the equivalent of the day required for the Earth to traverse the degree in its annual revolution, one degree of rotation is equal to one day's revolution. Out of this, it is concluded that, since a degree is equal to a day, and a day is equal to a year; therefore, a degree is equal to a year. The method of progression is based on the formula “1 day equates to 1 year”. This technique advances all planets so that each day of planetary movement corresponds to each-year of life. For secondary progressions one examines progressed positions and how these positions aspect other progressed planets and angles. For solar arcs directions, the directed planets and angles are always in the same positions relative to one another. Here, we only use aspects that directed positions make to natal positions.

There are two methods used for secondary progressions namely, Naibod system and the more common Radix system. The Sun and the Midheaven progress at an average rate of 59'08" per day (the so-called "Naibod Arc") to form aspects to the radical positions of the planets; while the planets move at varying rates to form aspects to the radical positions of the Significators.

Prediction is done based on the angles and degree cal aspects formed between the ascendant, Moon and Sun to various other planets in the progressed charts. For example, if there is a good aspect on the ascendant in the 25th year of the progressed chart from Venus, it could result into marriage of the individual.

Gori Tere Pyar Mein: What The Success Meter Says?

हिन्दी में पढने के लिये यहाँ क्लिक करें

Kareena Kapoor, Imran Khan and Shraddha Kapoor starrer movie, Gori Tere Pyar Mein is releasing at the box office on 22nd November, 2013. The movie is directed by successful director ‘Punit Malhotra’ who always offers something new to the audience. We tried to know the success possibilities of this movie from our expert Numerologist, Pt. Hanumaan Mishra.

Director Punit Malhotra's name is not new for the audience, rather his films have been highly appreciated by them. The movie 'I Hate Luv Storys' was also directed by him. Other than these two, he has worked as an Assistant Director for movies like, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Kal Ho Naa Ho, Paheli and Dostana. According to Punit Malhotra, this movie is different from the comedy and romantic ones and it can't be compared with them. The fate of this movie lies in the hands of the audience. 

Director Punit Malhotra’s Moolank and Bhagyank (destiny number) are 4 and 2, respectively. Both these numbers, 4 and 2 share a highly favorable bond. But, his Namank is 6 which creates harmony between the Moolank and Bhagyank. This harmony gives him the ability to understand the matters related to glamor world.

Talking about “”Gori Tere Pyar Mein”, its Namank is 3. This number has a neutral bond with Punit Malhotra’s Moolank and Bhagyank; therefore, it indicates average success. This year, his birth-number is 6, which is friendly with his Moolank but neutral with the Bhagyank. Also, it is highly good for his Namank. Total of the year 2013 is also 6. Hence, this movie seems quite beneficial for Punit Malhotra.

This movie is releasing on 22 November, 2013 and its Moolank is 4 and Saampornank is 3. 4, the Moolank of releasing date is favorable for Puneet Malhotra’s Moolank which is also 4. It is neutral with 3 which is the Naamank of “Gori Tere Pyar Mein”, whereas it is enemy with Puneet Malhotra’s Bhagyank, 2. On the other hand, Sampornank 3 is good for the movie and neutral for the director. It means that average appreciation is possible for Punit Malhotra’s efforts, but huge success is not foreseen.

Stars of Imran Khan, Kareena Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor will also affect the success possibilities of the movie. Let’s talk about them as well. 

Imran Khan’s Moolank and Bhagyank are 4 and 8, respectively. Movie’s Namank (name number) is neutral for him, whereas releasing date is favorable for Moolank as well as Bhagyank. Sampoorank, Moolank and Bhagyank of releasing date, on the other hand is neutral for both. Therefore, for him, the movie is slightly above than average.

Kareena Kapoor’s Moolank and Bhagyank are 3. Namank of the movie is favorable for her, whereas the releasing date is neutral for both Moolank and Bhagyank. The Sampurnank, Mulank and Bhagyank of releasing date are favorable for both. Hence, for Kareena, the movie may prove better and her performance may be appreciated more as compared to Imran.

Mulank and Bhagyank of Shraddha Kapoor are 3 and 9, respectively. For her, the Namank of the movie is good, but the releasing date is not that favorable for Mulank and Bhagyank. On the other hand, Sampoornank, Mulank and Bhagyank of the releasing date are good for both. Hence, for her also, the movie is better than average.

Therefore, if this movie releases on 22nd November, 2013 then it may entertain the audience to a great extent. Before its release, I will give this movie 2.5 stars out of 5.
