Soul Recognition within relationships

Nakshatra of the

navamsha lagna

a.k.a. Svamsha


Nairatmya

Tibetan Bronze - Collection of American Museum of Natural History, New York

Nakshatra of the navamsha lagna describes one's own psycho-emotional self-image. This soul level of self-image requires validation in reciprocal, psychically intimate relationships.


Etheric-body energy exchange or"First Impression"

All relationships between humans are intimate in the sense that when one human meets another human, However, briefly, an etheric-body information exchange. The exchange is based on the pre-existing subconscious memories which each person retains from their past-life relationship.

  • The conscious or semi-conscious experience of the etheric-body energy exchange is one of"pattern recognition" .

  • One has the sense - either acute or vague, depending on intensity of the relationship - of"interest" . One is "interested" in this other person. The other person seems to possess some quality or information which one needs to absorb or identify.

  • The nature of the exchange can be positively nourishing and friendly, or negatively harmful - even frightening.

Regardless of the emotional value or psychic charge on the exchange, the feeling one experiences at the moment of the etheric transaction is "interest" or engagement with some qualities of the other person.

Rudolf Steiner Staying Connected , p 120 and following, = clear description of the // interest // experiencer.


Mutual Soul Recognition - for a moment or for a lifetime

The experience of mutual soul recognition may be continuous throughout the lifetime (as with a beloved parent) or intensely for several decades (as with a beloved partner) or quite temporarily (as with a brief encounter). Whether short or long duration, the native feels significant"interest" when the soul-to-soul matching recognition takes place.

  • The moment of first recognition is the // psychic hit // or // first impression // hat one has of the other person.

  • In the case of one's birth mother, this moment = intense and permanent bond which develops in utero and is magically sealed as the infant looks into one's mother's eyes.

of course, this is the best possible outcome of the core soul-recognition relationship. The mother-child essential bond like any other type of soul recognition may suffer pre-incarnationally planned destruction or delay.


Unconditional Love

Mother-child relationships provide the only natural expression of unconditional love in human life. In the Jyotisha charts, astrong bond should be present between graha in the mother's nativity and the Nakshatra on the child's Svamsha .

  • Other essential human love bonding such as marriage and certain guru-sisya relationships will also display similar connections.

  • The real-world experience signified by the Jyotisha matching is the rather ineffable but deeply nourishing effect of having one's deeply private image of one's own"higher self" , better self, closer-to-God self be recognized and approved by the other person.

Normally this is quite natural for the mother, who has no trouble realizing the divine nature of her child. Yet, it is rather remarkable and precious when an intensely engaging, deeply nourishing and validating recognition arises outside the mother-child relationshipr.


Falling in Love

This experience is often called"falling in love" .

  • If the"falling in love" experience can be stabilized into its next level which is a the management of"being in love" , then the native will be blessed to have entered a soul-validating relationship of some good duration.


Psychic Impressions from animals, minerals, or other items

The moment of etheric exchange or"interest" generates the"first impression" which may be strong or weak, hot or cold, bright or gloomy, attractive or repulsive.

Such a"first impression"also occurs in meetings between humans and animals of all species, and between humans and plants. Much less so between humans and members of the mineral kingdom.

  • Yet, as most 'sensitives' will confirm, particular crystalline structures in the mineral kingdom do have strong pulses which enter one's etheric field rather vividly on first encounter.

  • Indeed rocks, gems, and other inanimate structures do hold memories, and sensitive clairvoyants can detect the images of those memories by permitting an etheric exchange between the memories stored in a photo or a piece of clothing.

  • Discussing the matter of a photo or a piece of clothing as a carrier of soul-image may seem frivolous or distant to one seeking to enter a beneficial intimate relationship, but these inanimate items which carry key information about the native are worthy of consideration.

  • As one scans the field of possible life partners, consider how the Other is signaling who they are, how they desire to be seen. Does the Other's social posturing seem awkward or even fraudulent?

Is there a psychic 'gap' between the real person as you sense them, versus their ornamentation, style of dress, and decorum? Are they trying to be someone they're really not? Lifestyle in smooth harmony with their basic personality?

  • Your first impression is valid. This type of"first impression" is familiar practice; humans use it daily.


Guidance toward validating the partner's higher (or preferred) self

Examine the Nakshatra of the Svamsha to determine how the native sees one's best self, highest self, closest-to-the-divine self. Find in this Nakshatra key to validating one's partner, whether in business or marriage.

  • In an existing relationship, discover ways to confirm and support one's partner even if the partner seems to be anxiously blocking the smooth flow of the relationship.

  • When seeking a new relationship, consider whether it is indeed one's preference or permission to validate the prospective partner's profile.

  • In particular, consider that malefic graha occupying the Svamsha may make it difficult or impossible for the native to receive the soul validation they are seeking. Be careful of psychic aggression from malefic graha in the Svamsha .

For one's own self, examine and learn to nourish one's higher calling . Self-validation is one of the most powerful spiritual practices.


Who do you think you are?

Nakshatra of the navamsha lagna is probably the most spiritually important of all the Nakshatra points.

All the Graha in all of their varga placements and all of the lagna etc. do reside in their own Nakshatra, and each of those significations will reveal one more piece of the pre-incarnationally planned jig-saw puzzle if one should have the time to contemplate all of that detail! Yet this one simple piece = nakshatra of Svamsha = surprisingly revealing.

  • One of the fastest and most essential Jyotisha evaluations which can be done before a reading = identification of the Nakshatra of the Svamsha = navamsha lagna

  • This Nakshatra describes not only how one behaves emotionally in partnership, what their core expectations often contradict what the native believes one is doing, or should be doing in partnership. Most importantly the actual behaviors their self-image in relationship is based on.

The"Svamsha" Nakshatra profiles the psycho-emotional model of the"good partner's actions " or"correct interaction" which the native is following (consciously or not) in relationship.

E.g.,

  • [Punarvasu - Yamaka] = navamsha lagna is committed to express the vital instincts of Aditi the Great Mother. acting out the nurturing,"gardening" , developing, fertile model of Punarvasu within one's partner role. If the partnership suppresses or denies the native 's maternal style of growing things (whether children, plants, or businesses), then the native must leave.

  • Chitra - Spica = Svamsha is committed to acting out the splendid, brilliant, attractive, competitive, successful model of Chitra within one's partner role. If the partner in marriage or business no longer finds the native"brilliant"and"successful" , the native will leave.

  • Uttarāṣāḍha - Vaishva = Svamsha is committed to acting out the model of great success through building large networks of alliances which drives the self-image of Uttarāṣāḍha. If the partnership blocks or fails to support the native 's model of self as a builder of large organizations , the native will need to leave.

When something happens to disturb the native 's ability to act out this model , one's deep sense of spiritual direction is invalidated and the native feels that something is terribly wrong. The native will probably feel the need to abandon a partnership which consistently blocks one's ability to act out the soul-model for proper and nourishing partnering behavior, rather than abandon their model.

Malefics in the Nakshatra of Svamsha will always cause polarizing catalysis along the path of native's pursuit of their programmed ideal.

  • The implications are greater than simply marriage however. All of life's experiences occur on the basis of relationships.

  • One approaches life's relationships from a somewhat fixed psycho-emotional position, already fortified with a battery of needs and pre-programmed responses (based in childhood and previous lives, for those with clairvoyant ability to see parallel lives ...) The Nakshatra rising on navamsha lagna will give insight into what that fixed position is.

  • Mainly it is a sorting device. One can only choose relationships and experiences which meet the needs and expectations of that Nakshatra .

Many of the native 's experiences in life will be subtly regulated by the soul-level of memory-driven need indicated by the total condition of the navamsha, particularly the rising Nakshatra r.
