Tibetan Tradition
Psycho-socially compatible with Visaka * Radha Nakshatra of Brihaspati * Brihaspati's ever-expanding realm of inclusive doctrinal understanding can be shared easily with other optimistic, generous, growth-oriented Guru-folk. Nakshatra of Mangala * Kuja and Guru are mutual friends Mangala the Champion leads the conquest of new worlds. He is a pioneer, an inventor, and a sexually driven competitor who rages in vital warfare, runs faster, drills deeper, and pursues His quarry without restraint. Mangala-ruled folk join can compatibly join charitable, indoctrinating Guru folk in support of Brihaspati's expansive ventures. Nakshatra of Chandra * Guru and Chandra are mutual friends. * matrikaraka caretaking Chandra's rhythmic, parenting, routinized style provides a pleasing compliment to Guru's patronizing, paternalistic style. These pairs may be found in the cultural realms of ethnic religion. Nakshatra of Surya * center-stage, sparklingly exceptional, brightly self-reflexive Surya finds a willing companion in optimistic, generous, preaching, fertile Guru. Together they are often found in creative, political avenues of education and religion. Psycho-socially neutral with Visaka * Radha Nakshatra of Shani * Shani and Guru are mutually neutral. Shani's governance structures can support Guru's preaching, and Brihaspati's philosophical ideologies can reside within Shani's hierarchies. This pair can be found in the world of institutionalized religion, universities, and charitable social organizations. Psycho-socially uneasy with Visaka * Radha Nakshatra of Rahu or Ketu * whether highly exciting (Rahu) or deeply observing (Ketu) the fascinating yet disruptive nodal styles are cautiously useful to Guru's campaign to expand the paradigm of belief. Positive relationships can support exotic preaching, missionary expansion, or outreach to culturally mixed environments. For other developments, discernment is required. Most catalytic (challenging) nakshatra for Visaka * Radha Nakshatra of Zukra = Zukra is all about two-party human-to-human arrangements that promote wealth acquisition, social harmony, and sensual pleasure within the union. Guru is all about one-to-many, divine-to-human broadcast events that disperse teachings into civilizations not Generally, into individuals. Guru is not averse to abundance, but the coffers of donated wealth are held by religious groups not by human partnerships. Guru has a strong animosity toward Zukra's materialism and sensuality. Therefore this pairing is generally unpleasant. Nakshatra of Budha * Budha can tolerate Guru, But from Brihaspati's perspective, Professor Budha is a shatru-graha = arch-enemy. Doctrinal, philosophical, theoretical Guru becomes profoundly annoyed by detailed, technical, talking-head Budha. A Guru-ruled nakshatra may contemptuously dismiss the perceived triviality of a Budha-ruled nakshatra. Therefore this pairing is generally unpleasant. | |

BPL commentary Visaka = indriya lagna (bodily baseline) * SPLIT-and-GROWVisaka refers to the electrical shock that causes an event of split-and-grow
Visaka-born may be working with electro-magnetic energies = the growth-promoting shock, the rejuvenating pulse of healing.injection of etheric energy can be described as the shakti * shocking fertility of lightning and thunder. In etheric cosmology, the subtle particulate nature of the Earth is considered to be fundamentally composed or fabricated from the rays emitted by seven graha. The system of rays is very complex with many overlays and inter-weavings. One of the interlocking systems of rays which travels through the infrastructure established by the rays of these seven graha is the roadway or channel network by which 27 advanced civilizations travel into the Earth along one of the 27 constructed pathways (na-kshatra). Each of these 27 pathways facilitate the bringing of intelligence, awareness, technology, and other gifts into Earth. In this cosmology, Visaka is a location, a world, from which the beneficent but highly charged rays of multiplication by splitting, abundance and wisdom originate. The travellers from Visaka are carried into Earth on their customary channel. Having arrived instantly, since they are not bound by time these missionaries and guides then implant their wisdom into the multiple electro-magnetic grids which surround and interpenetrate the Earth. Those who are genetically designed to match the energy of Visaka (for example, those born with a lagna or a graha located within Visaka) can then partake of Visaka gifts quite naturally, through the conditions of their birth. Ruled by Brihaspati, Radhu-born human-beings are humanistic philosophers. Their particular genius is Brihaspati-oriented wisdom of fertility and abundance. Visaka humans can become masters of the art of the abrupt, intense, shock-and-split. They understand at birth "how to jolt, how to inject a bolt of energy, how to multiply by supercharging the frequency of the original until it splits and changes, how to regenerate from an electrified seed". Thus Typically, the Guru-ruled Visaka native through actions of intense Shakti become powerful in their control of regenerative forces, albeit pada 1-2-3 rarely control much wealth. Pada-4 However, May possess remarkable assets. Visaka natives are engaged in the advance of civilization. Confident in their abilities, Visaka can deal -- and usually must deal -- with situations that have become energetically stagnant. They are called to inject vitalizing wave forms into this deathly state. However, the se sagacious types are of two different species: pada 1-2-3 the Thula portion and pada-4 the Vrizchika type. Visaka-Tula-Vanika pada 1-2-3 are balancing re-arrangers and negotiating diplomats who are more attuned to communicative professions. When a conflict drags on and on, not only is the material energy stagnant but the astral energy pattern is stuck too. They also must deal with some very challenging situations of conflict in the second world astral plane which percolates down into the first world material plane, causing war and toxic environments. Visaka-Tula pada 1-2-3 prosper in explanatory roles that involve logical argumentation and tactical planning, but their life path is littered with adversarial situations which can even lead to persecution for their service. Due to Guru's mulatrikona = bhava-3 Dhanushya, pada 1-2-3 have a particular interest in writing and diagramming. They are often gifted how to instructors and experts in small group process (such as General Grant's management of his military commanders). The truth-exposing lightning flash of Satragni can produce periods of tremendous excitement and a modestly successful career, depending on the particular pada. However, the Visaka 1-2-3 native remains vulnerable to attack and scapegoating via shoot the messenger adversaries. Military activities are superb expressions for Tula-Visaka males, who crave the combination of tactics (Zukra balanced movements) and strategy (Guru big picture) that military thinking involves. Visaka means shakti of split and grow (like lotus roots in water, like lightning forks). Measured from Tula lagna, Brihaspati ruling both bhava-3 and bhava-6 becomes the maha-dus-amsha-pati. Guru activates both 6th and 10th-from-6th giving a professional affinity to work with philosophically conflicted situations. Since Thula is naturally a diplomat, the specific imbalance-seeking-a-remedy is often culture clash. Tula-Visaka fills the role of logically strategizing (6) and directly managing (3) the elements of the clash. MILITARY Visaka likes to split an idea or split a team or split a territory then grow the scene, develop the potential. Examples of military Visaka successes include
Although these two examples from history might not be the best role models in terms of compassion, their professional military expansions were successful . VISAKA LADIES
Feminine nativities with svamsha in Punarvasu, Visaka, or Purvabhadra –
the three Guru-ruled nakshatra – are often strongly influenced by (1)
international, humanistic beliefs (2) the husbandly-companion and other
professor/theorist/sacred-wisdom/guidance providers.
Visaka is trauma-tolerant. Growth is the goal of any Guru-ruled nakshatra. Visaka’s growth method = grow by splitting like the lightning-bolt or the lotus-root. Visaka is not afraid to expand and include. Culturally, Visaka ladies in any pada may be considered as philosophers of human nature, who comprehend not only the sanitized view of humanity but indeed they know about ALL of the human experience (Guru = everything, Vishnu).
Radha-born rarely shrink from acknowledging the dark side. Guru never
shrinks. Their healing instincts easily include all varieties of human,
including the wrong-doers, who are understood to be just as crucial to the
integrity of life as the purportedly better folk. Thus Visaka ladies may be
found occasionally consorting with the low-life. Visaka folk throughout pada 1-2-3-4 are blessed by a strong conviction that the broad truths are fully represented by their viewpoint. It is virtually impossible to sway them from their convictions because they have already seen their truth. The Visaka folk are not seekers; they are enlighteners and provocateurs who inject sudden insights into the situation. The difference = pada 1-2-3"stuck situations " tend to be stuck in conflict (6) and the institutionalization of conflict (3 = 10th-from-6th) such as war, betrayal, exploitation, toxicity, accusation, disease; whereas the Vrizchika pada-4 situation is stuck in ego-centric (5) knowledge-treasure acquisitiveness (2) which is blocking their next step toward accurate apprehension of reality. Visaka natives, like Punarvasu-Yamaka and Purvabhadrapada, are born knowing their truth and they perceive the incarnation as an opportunity to serve others by preaching upon their doctrine. When frustrated by other's lack of wisdom (particularly as expressed by those playing Budha-style victim roles) the natives of Brihaspati-ruled Punarvasu, Visaka and Purvabhadrapada can seem condescending at times. Typically, the end of their trajectory is rather inglorious. Guru plays a salient role in the nativity, and Vimshottari periods of Guru bring forth their inner proclivity to fill the roles of teacher, preacher, shocking enlightener, and guide. Psychic attributes for Visaka radical lagna Visaka indicates the tremendous build-up of atmospheric energy before a Thunderstorm.
The subsequent Nakshatra = Anuradha. brings the tremendous release of healing rains. Physical attributes for Visaka radical lagna Visaka personalities are often attractive, with bright-dark eyes and a lightning-flash smile. Visaka can generate electrically charged human contact via quality of voice, brilliant eyes, and gentle touch. Their shakti is tangible.
Naturally, Visaka's tendency to accumulate high-voltage psychic impressions and reactions on the astral plane, while not being able to release these, can result in weight gain on the physical plane.
Visaka = traditionally associated with a sedentary , observer's lifestyle. Brihaspati's Visaka radix lagna produces a tendency to expand the fleshly abundance. While perhaps rotund, Visaka is also surrounded by a Guru-golden glow. (See Shil Ponde.) Predisposed to dislike physical exercise. Therefore, one must watch the food diet vigilantly, in order to avoid Visaka's expansive tendencies. Regular bodily exercise, although naturally anathema to the Visaka native, is indeed required if the native is to avoid the unconscious default condition. The default for those born under Visaka is to use their physical body for containment of the psychic overflow . Corrective work of physical-body discipline then must be accomplished at the physical level.

In Buddhist lore, Visaka was one of the women in Buddha's harem. She is remembered as a wife and student of Gautama Buddha. Visaka famously possessed the five kinds of magnetic feminine beauty
She died at the age of 120 years after completing her realization. In the future, Visaka will lead a group of 84,000 women out of the clutches of Samsara (forced rebirth). In Christian lore, Marya Magdalena was one of the numerous feminine disciplines of Yeshua, Jesus the Christ. She is remembered esoterically as a wife and student of the He Who Teaches by Example. In Christian lore, Saint Barbara is remembered as a saintly woman dressed distinctively in her favorite color of red. Despite her physical beauty, she considered herself already wedded to her spiritual source, and would not accept the marriage arrangements negotiated by her father. She starved to death rather than accept a lesser human marriage. Guru-ruled Visaka women are typically fortunate in their (true) husband. | |

| BPL COMMENTARY Radha Splitting, forking, root-branch pattern of development Vi-saka tend to specialize in Guru-oriented inspirational, inclusive, philosophical, large-scale insights. On the ground, the details may be strikingly vivid, electrocuting, shocking or revelatory in nature. Whether they are serving as military officers, politicians, writers, or professors, Guru-scope Visaka figures may guide their societies through times of calamitous transition toward more equitable conditions. High-voltage electro-magnetic influx of wisdom may cause considerable carnage in the process. Often some non-lethal damage to the paired organs in the Thula pada. Indra-Agni = psychic orientation to storms . Shakti through touch.
The life of the Bishaja the Splitter = punctuated by numerous psycho-emotional shocks. Terrible but brilliant truths long hidden may be suddenly exposed. Catastrophic shock occurs several times during the lifetime.
Thula Visaka vs. Vrizchika Visaka For Tula indriya-lagna +rogesha-6 Guru = loss of security and loss of agreement. Guru = enemy of balancing, materially accumulative Zukra.
Tula lagna is blessed in many ways, but Thula does not receive protection from normally auspicious Guru. L-3+rogesha-6 Brihaspati is a papa-graha for Thula. Because Visaka Nakshatra is ruled by Guru, the trials and tribulations which induce Visaka's greatest flashes of brilliant insight, are also exhausting patterns of mental (3) and physical (3) distress. The Tula-ruled quarters of Visaka struggle with mental balance and physical well-being throughout their life. Guru activates family history and kids Career for Visaka nakshatra Similar to the other members of the Guru -ruled Nakshatra trine = Punarvasu-Yamaka + Visaka + Purvabhadrapada
As a broad pattern they are all natural educators, with a distinctive propensity toward world travel, a pronounced interest in religious belief systems and ritual traditions, and as a rule they adore children. This group are often found running schools or educational tour programs, taking teachings from their Guru or pursing university degrees in philosophy, or even when life is more localized they will find a way to express their inner preacher such as teaching 'Sunday School' (religious instruction for children). Visaka's shakti pulses a momentarily shocking, sudden bright light onto the world's darkness. Native should pursue a career which supports their tendency toward sudden, brilliant revelations .
Psychological work with trauma and healing, medical diagnosis, counseling professions, investigative journalism, divination, intuitive and clairvoyant work, and scientific research are all suitable, but do not expect consistency or routine, at least until the end of life. | |

QUOTATION from Das / Behari QUOTATION Four Pada of Vaishaka ** for Male only ** by Shil-Ponde. (1939). Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra. p 110. Same as Visaka pada-1 "Red flash in the eyes, a ruddy complexion, and a scar or mark on the stomach.
Easily angered." [end quote Shil Pondey.] BPL COMMENTARY Visaka-pada-3 is one corner of a triangle formed by the Guru-ruled nakshatra inhabiting air-element rashi = Visaka-3 ++ Purvabhadra-3 ++ Punarvasu-3. These three trinal pada produce Mithunaya Navamsha. Writers on a grand scale, planners of great works, announcers of higher truth, instructors of theory, inspirational explainers. Radha Pada-3 * Thula Rashi * Mithunaya-Dvamdva Navamsha Articulatory, logically argumentative Budha activates the pada, while generous, guiding Guru activates the nakshatra and sensual, partnering Zukra activates the rashi. Budha-Guru are an adversarial, problematic pair. However, if Radha Pada-3 is resigned to the task of articulating an ever-expanding, philosophical, and detailed view of life's many human problems, Visaka Pada-3 can be a supportive placement for professors, writers, religious speakers, evangelists, global messengers and certain types of spiritual guides. Marriage to a Guru-figure such as a teacher, guide, philosopher, or priest - or indeed the partner is simply generous and fertile. Mate is wise in matters related to the placement of Guru in the radical kundali. shock-split agents focused on explanatory and descriptive communications. Narratives of shocking expansion. Develops Meena careers in intuitive development, divination, esoteric philosophy, psychic and spiritual guidance, and various forms of teaching. | |

| QUOTATION from Das / Behari QUOTATION from: Four Pada of Vaishaka ** for Male only * By Shil-Ponde. (1939). Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra. p 110: "Is always in the company of the opposite sex;
Likes to live alone." BPL Commentary on Radha PADA-4 within Vrizchika * pushkaraka-pada Visaka-pada-4 = one corner of a triangle formed by the Guru-ruled nakshatra inhabiting water-element rashi = Visaka-4 ++ Purvabhadra-4 ++ Punarvasu-4. Each of these three trinal pada produce Karkata navamsha. All four Visaka-pada produce flashes of energy = moments of stunning, shocking enlightenment. Pada-4 enlightens differently from Thula pada 1-2-3. Pada 1-2-3 arranges and re-arranges the scene-lighting to expose the bigger picture. Pada-4 creates a safe space (Karkata) then uses individual jolts of dangerously brilliant insight to shake, shock, and stun the target into changing its signature frequency. The Vrizchika-Thriketta -ruled quarter of Visaka may lack Tula's Yogakaraka -Shani assets = solid foundational education ++ disciplined intelligence but the final Pada of Visaka does benefit from Guru's favorable role as dhanapati-2 + vidya-pati-5 from Vrizchika lagna. Flashes of insight are obtained at a lesser price , without draining the mental and physical health. The source of brilliance = psychic jolts that come from family history (2), works of art, children, games (5). Sensitive, rhythmic Chandra activates the pada, while generous, guiding Guru activates the nakshatra and sexually pursuing, competitive Mangala activates the rashi. Chandra-Guru are a somewhat adversarial pair, with Chandra rooting into the local view while Guru expands to global perspective. Tends to promote a philosophy of self-defense. Mangala works well with both Chandra and Guru, resulting in an energized approach toward emotionally and ideologically motivated warfare. Visaka Pada-4 may have grown up with well-meaning but invasive parents. Does not wish to change the comforting personal habits; needs emotional interaction but also requires expansive emotional space. An emotional [Chandra] tolerance [Guru] for violence [Mangala] makes this pada especially well-suited to careers such as secret (Kuja) police [Chandra]; and professorial teaching [Guru] in areas such as psychology of abusive parenting, border [Chandra] control (Vrischika) or homeland security (Soma). Promotes sexual-emotional activity (Mangala-Chandra) yet Shani governed 7th navamsha often delays marriage . If marriage is indicated, Makara on 7th navamsha suggests union with a Shani-figure such as a government worker, bureaucrat, legislator, regulator, or other soberly conventional and pragmatic personality. Vrischika-Visaka pada-4 Often a forceful personality whose capacity to inject Shakti into stagnant situations is highly empowered. Pada 1-2-3 is typically saddled by debt, argument, and illness so as to maintain understanding of the common folk. Yet, the Pushkara Navamsha Vrizchika pada-4 shifts Guru into rulership of bhava 2 and 5 becoming distinctively financially privileged and often a celebrity too. Visaka Pada-4 * Vrizchika Rashi * Karkata-Kadaga Navamsha * Pushkarya Navamsha= shock-split agents focused on establishing settlements, fundamental schooling, caretaking, parochialism, patriotism, and protectiveness. Develops Mesha careers that are innovative, pioneering, and surging with physical energy. Visaka pada-4 operate from a level of wisdom-mastery that has both benevolent and less benevolent consequences. Pada-4 evokes a challenging mixture. Its lineage treasury of valuable assets and conserved knowledge (2) mixes with the ego-enflamed celebrity of center-stage roles (5). This juxtaposition leads to complex outcomes for pada-4.
Visaka pada-4 can produce inspiring insights that provide transcendent guidance for the spirit. Due to Guru's mulatrikona Dhanuzya = bhava-2, Visaka pada-4 brings an expansive doctrinal lineage wisdom (2) to the shock-stun-enlighten process. These natives are delightfully intelligent and charismatic. Yet, Visaka pada-4 must take care that enlightenment does not deteriorate into a cult of personality with the audience waiting for Yet, another amusing jolt of entertainment (5). Pada-4-Visaka (inside Vrischika rashi) uses shakti-shock as method of discovery. Their job is to open a wide portal which reveals greater truth.
The energy release by revealing secrets often provokes
a healing, but not the sort of healing that restores normalcy. Shani likes a
fixed state of normal. Guru likes open vistas, increasing wisdom, higher
truths – not routines, not comfort, and certainly not normalcy. VISAKA GENTLEMEN Masculine-gendered Visaka births are often involved in large-scale events of death-and-rebirth
VISAKA LADIES Like their masculine counterparts, pada-4 Visaka ladies have a surprising tolerance (Guru is tolerant) for the carnage of battle. Yet, their battles tend to be psycho-emotional and political rather than military.
Visaka-pada-4 can be penetrating healers,
revealers of secrets, optimistic fighters, pioneering preachers. Whatever
they do, the goal is growth, expansion, tolerance, humanism, and wisdom. | |
