Life is eternal. Birth is the opposite of Death.

Death is the opposite of Birth.

Life is eternal, never-ending,

despite the phase-changes, always Being, always Here

Conditions of death may be known from bhava-8 or from 8th-from-8th = bhava-3

Makara and Kumbha deaths tend to occur in isolation due to Shani.

QUOTATION from Hora Sara, Sarga 26, shloka-2

translated by R. Santhanam; 1995. Ranjan Pub. p 290-300

  • If it is Surya, death is through fire

  • if it is Chandra: water

  • if it is Mangala: weapon

  • if it is Budha: fall

  • if it is Guru: fever

  • if it is Shukra: indigestion

  • And if it is Shani: hunger.

Depending on Ayur Bhava occupying a movable, fixed, or dual Rashi, death will be

  • in foreign,

  • in one's own house,

  • Or while on the move." [end quote]

Surya in Randhra Bhava-8

Turning of the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth= inherently self-referential .

Surya-8 = Radiant Icon representing the Conditions of dematerialization.

Surya-8 Learners may have a sense of one's own importance at the time of release. Death warnings are self-generated; Learners may announce the death oneself. One has confidence in the moment; one expects to be recognized on the other side.

Death in a hot place. Inside-heat or outside-heat.

  • Fiery heat may be internal (fever) or external (air temperature).

  • Thus, frequently, death via infection (verify randhresha-8 and other markers to determine all factors)

If Surya occupies one of His favorite hot, arid rashi (Mesha, Simha) death may be in the high mountains, in conditions of bright light.

  • In Mesha, high-honor or heroic death.

Agent of death (the liberator, who gives final permission to pass over) is the father, apolitical colleague, or astral voice of divine intelligence.

Ruler of 8th-from-8th occupies bhava-8 = continuous, unending cycles of exploration, identity change, camouflage, discovery and non-disclosure

Exception:

if the nativity contains Shani-11, Shani-2, or Shani-6, then Zani's drishti upon bhava-8 can freeze the quick-turning cycle of birth and death. Shani-11, Shani-2, or Shani-6 extends the lifespan.

Life is eternal. Birth is the opposite of Death. Death is the opposite of Birth. Life is eternal, never-ending, despite the phase-changes, always Here, always Being.

Fleur_tulipz.JPGChandra in Bhava-8

Turning of the perpetual cycles of birth, death, and rebirth = emotionally engaged. Learners may have reactive feelings at the time of death, for better or for worse.

pre-Death advisories may be felt emotionally within the family or circle of intimates. The near-ones often can sense death approaching.

bio-decease may be an expression of emotional caring.

Death may occur within the Protective Shell [Chandra]. At home-shell, building-shell, ship-shell, on a roadway or in any transport vehicle-shell.

EXAMPLE = bio-decease occurs within automobile

  • NASCAR 1951-2001 motorsports Dale Earnhardt

  • bio-decease = age 49 within his racing automobile from impact of high-speed crash.

  • basilar skull fracture

  • Chandra in final degree of Makara-8. His randhresha-8 Shani also in bhava-4 = trackways, rhythmic loops, vehicles

Bio-decease in watery circumstances, usually some form of drowning. Cooling water can be inside the body (pneumonia, edema, swelling) or outside the body (ocean, lake, river).

  • In Karkata or Urisha, deceasing native is surrounded by family and/or in company of loved ones.

  • Meena : damage to lymph system, dissolution of the will to live

Agent of death (the liberator, who gives final permission to pass over) = a parent, family member, countryman, or guardian of one's cultural roots tradition.

Death by acute injury (internal or external) or blunt-force trauma.

Sudden, forced, or "accidental" circumstances. Trauma can be internal (heart attack) or external.

Body part most acutely affected may be indicated by the rashi, e.g., mithuna = lungs, arms; Simha = heart; Kumbha = nervous system, skin

Agent of death (the liberator, who gives final permission to pass over) is a huntsman, military officer, athlete, marksman/shooter, physician-surgeon, psychiatrist, detective or secret agent.

Mangala drishti into 8 suggests that shell-death occurs swiftly while the body is moving through space (such as riding a horse or in a vehicle, or while walking, running, or jumping).

Life is eternal. Birth is the opposite of Death. Death is the opposite of Birth. Life is eternal, never-ending, despite the phase-changes, always Here, always Being.

Budha in Randhra Bhava-8

Turning of the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth = mentally agitated or conversational Death warnings are heard inside one's own head but one might not convey this secret information.

Death in conversation, or as the result of talking when one ought to be doing something else.

Mentality may discursively guide the dying person through the trauma situation. Learner may be involved in conversation with astral beings who guide the transition process. If Budha rules moksha bhava, instructions for dematerialization may be efficient and welcome..

Surrounded by siblings and close friends.

Agent of death (the liberator, who gives final permission to pass over) is a close friend or sibling, who lets the native know that it's OK to go -- the conversation will continue in dream space.

Life is eternal. Birth is the opposite of Death. Death is the opposite of Birth. Life is eternal, never-ending, despite the phase-changes, always Here, always Being.

Guru in Randhra Bhava-8

svabhava of Guru's friend the energetic, pursuing Mangala

Generally Guru-8 (before considering additional influence such as incoming drishti) is said to produce a long but rather frail life.

According to Das, "longevity, but impaired health" .

naturally if other graha such as Mangala occupy 8, vitality can be much higher.

Turning of the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth = wise and forgiving, generous and abundant to the heirs.

Death in circumstances of religious wisdom, general optimism, and abundance.

Presence of one's children at the time of death. (Not all of the children necessarily, but at least one of the children will be present.)

Agent of death (the liberator, who gives final permission to pass over) is a priest, one's father, achild, or religious belief. For a woman, agent may be her first husband.

Death caused by over-doing abundance in some sense; this is often a very positive sense of freedom and liberation, but may also signify death from gluttony or over-expansion.

One dies in a state of consciousness that one's current destiny has been fulfilled.

If with Kuja, Guru-8 death = sudden but philosophical

Shukra in bhava-8

svabhava of Shukra's neutral Mangala

Turning of the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth = sweet and pleasurable, favoring several marriages and harmonious partnerships or simply a preference for camouflaged relationships.

Agent of death (the liberator, who gives final permission to pass through the veil) is a sweet one, usually a lover or partner who shares in one's wealth.

If Shukra is in a hospitable rashi, Shukra-8= Death in the company of those beloved. Sweet or pleasure-addiction agency. The instrumental cause = often something put in the mouth.

In Vrishabha, can be luxurious circumstances. Attendants make the native comfortable during the passage through the corridor of veils.

  • In Karaka, presence of family, usually a death at home.

  • In Kumbha, presence of loving members of a large community.

Less benevolent for first marriage. The spouse has previous or additional partners; for Husbandly Learners, first wife may have been widowed or divorced.

QUOTATION from

~~ Hora Sara, chap. 26, shloka-2 4

" Death by hanging is indicated

  • if Surya is in vīvāha-sthāna along with Rahu or Ketu

Shani in Randhra Bhava-8

= long life despite threat, danger, shock, sudden changes

slowed processing of trauma

Typically, quite long-lived. Professor Shani resists change and this anti-evolutionary pattern tends to delay the bio-death.

Turning of the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth = inexorably slow and lawful, favoring hard work and antiquity, with regular warnings about scarcity and survival.

Normally, Shani in 8 indicates a remarkably long life .

There are situations However, in which Shani-8 is weakened while other factors are strengthened, so that Shani-8 can permit an abbreviated lifeline.

Shani-8 may often wish to make one's final return to the astral identity, but material obligations force a sustained commitment to complete the Earth-based task list.

However graha yuti Shani or casting drishti upon can change this prognosis completely, so that circumstances of death are realized rather earlier in the incarnation.

Death ultimately caused by hard work and enforced by the laws of time and space.

Whether Shani enforces an extended tour of duty or whether other graha reduce Shani's typical longevity, main cause of demagnetization tends to be exhaustion from Overwork and worry.

Learners may die in the workplace or while expending lawful effort . For most people, life's main workplace is the home or the agricultural lands surrounding the home.

Agent of death (the liberator, who gives final permission to pass over) is a law enforcer, atask-master, or Father Time. In case of Shani Learners may feel that there is additional work to be done on Earth, but the grim reaper says "It's Time to Go."

Cause of death (esp. If Shani = rogesha-6 ) may = lingering but often undetected or masked illness, achronic exhausting condition which the native hides from others in order to complete one's work without interruption.

For a woman, Shani represents the second husband. In bhava-8, Shani as a death agent suggests that one psycho-social cause of death may be exhaustion from stress of divorce or impending divorce.

If outside the customary workplace, Learners may nevertheless be engaged in work-related tasks such as planning and communicating about work tasks, or even dreaming about one's work.

Life is eternal. Birth is the opposite of Death. Death is the opposite of Birth. Life is eternal, never-ending, despite the phase-changes, always Here, always Being.

Rahu indicates a dematerialization event associated with the accumulated effects of passionate desires.

Risk-rewarding Rahu = not a maraka-graha unless His lord = a marana-karaka.

Agent of death (the liberator, who gives final permission to pass over) is typically signified by Rahu's ruler .

Throughout life, Learner risks one's bio-longevity in tantric or secretive undertakings. However, physical life span will not be harmed unless some other graha supports Rahu'

In Mesha, Rahu surges with great desire to know the secrets of war and competitive domination. Rahu shows a death that is celebrated due to Learner's heroic personality.

In Vrishabha, Rahu surges with great desire to know the secrets of beauty and financial well-being . Rahu shows a death that is celebrated due to Learner's heroic personality.

In Mithuna, passion for secret conversation, hidden couplings

In Simha, Rahu surges with great desire to know the secrets of political power and divine truth. Eventually this passion takes its toll on the heart of The Earthen-body .

In Makara, risk-rewarding Rahu = driven by great desire to know the secret structures of galactic life, Eventually this passion takes its toll on the bones of The Earthen-body

.

In Kumbha, Rahu surges with great desire to know the secret connections between human bodies and the electrical network of conceptual thoughts Eventually this passion takes its toll on the nerves of The Earthen-body .

In Meena , Rahu surges with great desire to know the secret pathways which connect waking life to the dream state; and ways to establish intuitive connections between people who do not speak the same verbal language Eventually this passion takes its toll on the emotions, feet, and the lymph system of The Earthen-body .

Life is eternal. Birth is the opposite of Death. Death is the opposite of Birth. Life is eternal, never-ending, despite the phase-changes, always Here, always Being.

Ketu in bhava 8

withdrawal, apathy, disengagement, disinterest. toward the dramatic turning of the perpetual cycle of birth, death, and rebirth

Learners may be cut from bio-vehicle or cut-down by a sudden splitting action; when in a medical coma or in samadhi; in a highly detached, scattered, dispersed mental condition

Learner may depart the biological vehicle via medical coma or in samadhi

At the time of bio-chemical dematerialization, as the spirit takes flight into the vast freedoms of astral awareness, Ketu-8 can confer a blessedly witnessing, observing, detached state of mind. .

Regardless of the family storytelling about death and what it means, or the hereditary anxieties of those surrounding the Learner as one passes into that spacious release, Learner may lack any fear of death. Ketu-8 = non-reactive toward the turnings of the cycle of bio-release and rebirth.

The circumstances of death may be violent

  • or sudden, or harsh = Vṛścika, mesha

  • or sensually indulged = Meena , Vrishabha, thula

  • or emotional = Karkata

  • or brittle, bitter, or prolonger = Makara-Kumbha

  • or dreamlike and hazy = Meena

But whatever the external environment, Ketu-8 is quite unconcerned with the consequences of one's separation from The Earthen-body .

Agent of death (the liberator, who gives final permission to pass over) is Typically, an astral personality (someone not in human form, or who has only briefly possessed a human form) whose identity is indicated by the bhava and rashi of Ketu's lord.

Typically one enjoys a clairvoyant prescience regarding the coming of death, its ways and means, and larger cosmic context.

Learners may be psychologically disengaged from the body in advance of the physical separation. Acertain numbness or deep resignation to the inevitability of death is the dominant experience during the time of the Turning of the cycle of birth and death.

Conditions of release from fleshly tethering may remain mysterious

Those in attendance of the death may - due to their filters - fail to understand what materially stimulated the dematerialization. Coroners may issue a vapidly non-specific cause-of-death with vocabulary such as "undetermined" or "unknown".

Typically Learner is at rest, quietly observing the dissolution process. One usually lacks instinctive survival-fear of release because Ketu-8 scatters the mental tethers of concern [Ketu] about the death process. Nature is allowed to proceed according to organic patterns, without intervention [Ketu-8 disinterested in interventions]

Only when Ketu's psychic partner Kuja = actively involved as bhukti-pati or drishti-caster would there by expectation of forceful or violent due to the inherent velocity of collision-prone Kuja.

Whatever the external environment, Learner may be quite unconcerned with material consequences of activated separation from the Earthen-body .

Shri Ketu the vacuum-cleaner = agent of dematerialization . Windy Ketu = liberator, who gives final permission to pass over

THE GREETERS

Typically, an astral personality = someone familiar and trusted, but not in human form - is ready to greet the Learner as they enter the threshold of astral awareness. The greeter's identity may be indicated by the bhava and rashi of Shri Ketu and His ruler, incoming drishti into Ketu, graha sharing rashi with Ketu, and other associations of Ketu.

Ketu-8 Learners may enjoy clairvoyant prescience regarding the coming of the biological dematerialization experience, its ways and means, and larger cosmic context. Full Learner's credit may be expected from careful observation of the transformation.

Learner may be psychologically disengaged from the embodiment in advance of the physical separation. Acertain numbness or deep resignation to the inevitability of bio-decease = often experienced during the time of the Turning of the cycle of birth and death.

Life is eternal. Birth is the opposite of Death. Death is the opposite of Birth. Life is eternal, never-ending, despite the phase-changes, always Here, always Being.

Hora Sara - sarga-26, shloka-35

" If Ketu is in the 8th house,

while the 8th lord is in an angle,

malefics in the 12th and the lagna lord be devoid of strength, the native 's death will be due to his resorting to bad ways."

Staying Realistic

QUOTATION from Tenzing Gyatso, Compassionate Life . (2003). Wisdom Pub.

" As a basis for change, we need to recognize that as long as we live in this world we will encounter problems, things that obstruct the fulfillment of our goals.

  • If, when these happen, we lose hope and become discouraged, we diminish our ability to face these difficulties.

  • If, on the other hand, we remember that not just we but everyone has to undergo suffering, this more realistic perspective will increase our determination and our capacity to overcome troubles.

By remembering the suffering of others, by feeling compassion for others, our own suffering becomes manageable.

  • Indeed, with this attitude, each new obstacle can be seen as Yet, another valuable opportunity to improve our mind, another opportunity for deepening our compassion!

  • With each new experience, we can strive gradually to become more compassionate; that is, we can develop both genuine sympathy for others' suffering and the will to help remove their pain.

As a result, our own serenity and inner strength will increase."

When Does Consciousness Enter the Physical Birth?

QUOTATION from Tenzing Gyatso,

  • Consciousness at the Crossroads: conversations with the Dalai Lama on Brain Science and Buddhism
  • edited by Zara Houshmand, robert B. Livingston, and B. Alan Wallace, published by Snow Lion Pub.

"On some occasions, people faint.

Even when your breath temporarily stops, during that moment, there is a reduced level of consciousness.

Consciousness is most reduced late in the course of dying.

Even after all physical functions cease, we believe that the "I," or "self," still exists. Similarly, just at the beginning of life, there must be a subtle form of consciousness to account for the emergence of consciousness in the individual.

  • We must explore further the point at which consciousness enters into a physical location.

  • At conception, moment when and the site where consciousness interacts with the fertilized egg is something to be discovered, although there are some reference to this in the texts....

The Buddhist scriptures do deal with it, but I am interested to see what science has to say about this.

  • During this period we believe that without the subtle consciousness, there would be a life beginning without consciousness. If that were the case then no one could ever recollect experiences from their parallel life .

  • It is also in terms of Buddhist beliefs relating to this topic that Buddhism expounds its theory of cosmology: how the universe began and how it later degenerates.

Based on this metaphysical reasoning and other arguments, and based on the testimony of individuals who are able to recollect their experiences in parallel lives very vividly, buddhists make this claim.

I am a practitioner, so based on my own limited experiences, and the experiences of my friends, icannot say with one hundred percent certainty that there is a subtle consciousness.

Scientists don't posit consciousness in the same sense that Buddhists do.

At the moment of conception, however, there has to be something that prevents the sperm and egg from simply rotting, and causes it to grow into a human body.

  • When does that occur?

  • Why does that occur?" [end quote]
