Kankanakriti Surya Grahan (April 29, 2014)

Today, i.e. on April 29, 2014 is Kankanakriti Surya Grahan. If an eclipse can scale down the supreme power of Sun, then how can it affect our lives? Want to know more about today’s Surya Grahan? Read on this article...

Kankanakriti Surya Grahan refers to Annular solar eclipse. Every year Surya Grahan is observed from two to five times a year. These Surya Grahans are categorized into different categories such as partial solar eclipse (Anshik Surya Grahan), Annular solar eclipse (Kundalakaar/Kankanakriti Surya Grahan), total solar eclipse (Purna Surya Grahan), and hybrid solar eclipse (Sankarit Surya Grahan). On April 29, 2014, annular solar eclipse (Kundalakaar/Kankanakriti Surya Grahan) is going to be witnessed.

Surya Grahan occurs only on the New Moon Day, when earth, Moon, and Sun comes in a straight line and Moon comes in between earth and Sun. Occurrences of different Surya Grahan or solar eclipse depends on the different positions of Moon in between earth and Sun, and also on the different distances among them.

Annular Solar Eclipse Or Kankanakriti Surya Grahan

Latin word ‘Annulus’ means ring and Hindi/Sanskrit word ‘Kankan’ means bangle, that is why it is known as ring shaped solar eclipse or Kankanakriti Surya Grahan. During Kankanakriti Surya Grahan, Moon covers only the center part of Sun. Therefore, the remaining part of Sun seems like a ring, formed around Moon. This formation occurs when Moon is quite far from earth.

Because of appearance of ring or Kankan (bangle) in the sky, the eclipse is known as Kankanakriti Surya Grahan.

Transit of Venus In Pisces Ascendant (May 28, 2014)

Venus is transiting into Pisces ascendant, on the midnight of April 27, 2014. Along with this transit, alterations will also come for each zodiac sign. So, how will it affect your stars? Read these astrological predictions by astrologer Acharya Raman and get the answer.

On April 27, 2014, around midnight, Venus will transit in Pisces, its sign of exaltation. It will transit in the stars of Jupiter, Saturn and Mercury. Most of its transit will be in the constellations (Nakshatra) of its friends. Venus represents Shukracharya, the Guru of demons and Pisces is a watery dual sign of Brihaspati, the eternal Guru. Venus owns Taurus and Libra, out of which Taurus is a fixed sign and Libra is movable, But Jupiter, the Guru, owns both the dual signs. Human nature is full of duality. We have different personality with different people. For example, we are different with our wife, kids, parents, inlaws, boss, servant etc. The irony is self proclaimed that eternal lovers become most bitter enemy of each other many times and our court shows the way apart. Venus rules love, which is physical & material, and Brihaspati rules love for all creation of God. This is a contrast which separates people of three types- those who talk ideas, those who talk events and those who talk about people. Venus will always talk about people because it has no vision beyond that. We can easily see it in any strong Libran or Taurean. On 24th May, Venus will join Ketu in Aries, the sign ruled by Mars, which will be in Virgo, the debilitation sign of Venus.

The transit of Venus will have following effects on various ascendants:

Aries: Love affairs may cost you more money, wait, luck, and losses. So, it will be wiser to not adhere to the demands raised. There might be some problems on legal front. You may repay some of your debts. Works may take longer to accomplish.

Taurus: You may receive your provident fund money or return on insurances. Elder members of the family may have to face some prolonged illness. There will be good news related to work and elders of the family. There could be long travels. Your girlfriend or boyfriend will give in to your devotion and will say yes to you, finally. 

Gemini: You will enjoy good relations with wife and family. But you should be careful as defamation is possible, during this time. You may fall in some kind of emotional trap. At this time, take care of you health. Gadgets in your vehicle may suffer malfunctioning.

Cancer: Platonic love will reach a new height, it is better to feel love than indulge in it physically. You may face some domestic misunderstanding due to professional life, but it will not surface up where others can see it. Expenses will be a major issue, during this time.

Leo: During this time, luck will not favor you much. Some known people may become the reason for it. There will be philosophical gains and material gains in this time. Your elders may go for a long outing. Property related issues can come up.

Virgo: You will long for a union, but it will be delayed till the extent of disliking. Some of you will have misunderstanding with your beloved. Domestic life will be peaceful. AS health problems are possible, avoid heavy foods and sweets like sundaes & ice creams. 

Libra: Many of you may face legal issues and problems from servants. There might be some issues related to children. Your vehicle may also give unnecessary troubles at times. Avoid long journeys. Your egoistic attitude will deter your love life and may make some deep dents in it.

Scorpio: There may be some roughness among the family members. Some sudden issue may come up related to an old disease. It is suggested not to lend money to anyone, as you may not get it back soon. Chances of sudden gains are also seen. You will win over your opponents. Travel to abroad is also there.

Sagittarius: New vehicle may come to your porch. As a result of this transit, you will make new friends. Work front will be good. You may purchase gold or diamond. Overall, it is good for you from many aspects.

Capricorn: Due to this transit, you may face troubles from workers, as they will ask for more expense. Work front will be below average and you may face dejection.

Pisces: Health should be your prime focus, at this time. Also, keep a check on expenses and your personal life. You will be feeling jovial, but may not feel the same for long. Tooth and genitals related problems can trouble you. Be careful with your eating habits. During this time, you may become a victim of blackmagic; therefore, avoid strangers.

• Which Stocks/ Sectors Will Suit Me?

I feel contented and satisfied by helping people: Acharya Raman

AstroSage is once again back with an interview of an expert astrologer. Today, we will talk to our expert astrologer ‘Acharya Raman’, who has helped numerous people with his advice and suggestions. Read this interview and get to know what he suggests for better knowledge of astrology. 

1. How did you get interested in astrology initially? What made you come into the field of astrology as a profession?

Since my childhood, I was interested in occult, black magic, and palmistry. I did many practicals mentioned in several books about occult and read Cheiro's book of palmistry, when I was in school. There were no result for the things I did in occult, but in palmistry, I was gaining knowledge by experimenting palms of my friends and family members. It stretched to reading palms of strangers in trains and by the time I finished college, I was a good palmist in my circle. 

My predictions used to astonish people, I interacted with. Then due to some reasons of change of place, change in stream of education and other factors, the craze for palmistry ended and I took up numerology. In numerology, it was in year 2003-2004, Yahoo was having many groups where I used to give free readings. People used to get amazed by the things I told them because they were complete strangers. My Yahoo friends box reached its full capacity and I had to make another id to continue further. But after 2004, again there was a break in these pursuits and I had to shift cities for some reasons. There also I continued numerology free of cost and developed interest in traditional Hindu astrology, which we term as Vedic astrology now a days. 

I found that it was astrology, which was most precise and appealing. I dropped all other things and continued practicing astrology in my free time on my expenses. Now 8-10 years later, I thank God for pushing me into this field of prediction, where I feel contented and satisfied by helping people and making my living out of it. Infact, now I know that it was astrology which was meant for me because of the certain combinations present in my own horoscope. When the time came, I started doing it professionally. And, I would like to thank AstroSage for giving me the opportunity to serve and earn at the same time without any kind of cheating and malpractices, which are rampant in today’s astrological business. It is my primary goal to tell people that no person in this world can change destiny. We can only tell what is probably going to happen and give remedial measures, accordingly.

2. What astrological system do you use and why?

I primarily use traditional Hindu astrology to judge the potential of the horoscope. Then for further scrutiny, I use KP and KB system. For timing of events, there is no better system than KP, as it is very scientific and logical. As it lacks in remedies; therefore, for remedial astrology, I take help of traditional astrology.

3. Any incident related to astrology in your life or your prediction, which created impact and that you want to share with our readers?

There are so many incidents that it is not possible to pen down any one of them. We cannot grade the strength of a prediction, simply because to the asker his question is most important. I have told many people by palmistry, numerology and astrology, about the things that are going to happen in their lives and they happened too. There was a very beautiful woman whom I told the date of her divorce by reading her palm and it occurred as it is. There was one co-passenger travelling with me, I told him about his keep and he was amazed. Similarly, there was a girl whom I told that her first marriage will end in two years and it did. There are endless incidents and I don’t remember most of them.

4. What are your suggestions for budding astrologers or for those who’re interested in this subject?

If you are willing to become an astrologer, the foremost thing is that you pray regularly and try to develop the intuition, which is necessary for every stream of prediction in astrology. Without divine grace and help, no one can become a good astrologer. Secondly, you should read standard texts and practice on blind charts. Analyze the charts of your family members and test the traditional principles of astrology.

5. According to you, which are the best astrology books that one should read?

There are several books available in the market nowadays, but I suggest the following books. These are must as far as my opinion is concerned:

1. My experiences in astrology by B.V.RAMAN
2. Hindu jyotish ka Saral Adhyayan by K.N.RAO
3. Jyotish Ratnakar by Devkinandan Singh
4. Bhartiya Jyotish by Nemichandra Shastri
5. How to judge a nativity, part 1 & 2 by B.V.RAMAN
6. KP Readers 1 TO 6
7. Krishnamoorthy Jyotish Rahasya by Suresh Sahasne

6. What would you like to say to the users of AstroSage.com?

To our clients, I would like to say that keep showing the faith you have in us since so many years. We put in a lot of hard work on each and every chart. The fact is that astrologers are not Gods and sometimes they may go wrong. However, it does not mean that he neglected something or is not a good astrologer. It is our endeavor to give the best possible answers with the required remedies and not to make you spend uselessly on remedial procedures.

So, this was all for today. Stay tuned as we bring interview of one more astrologer, next week.
