Technically speaking, your rising sign, or ascendant, reflects the zodiac sign that was ascending on the Eastern horizon at the moment you took your first breath in this world. This is why an exact birth time is so vital to finding your accurate rising sign. Located on the cusp of the first house of your astrological chart — or at the nine o’clock position — the rising sign can exert an influence almost as powerful as your Sun and Moon signs.

If you were to think of your Sun sign as your soul — your inner personality and potential — and your Moon sign as your heart — your emotional core — then you could say that your rising sign is your physical self or the face you present to the world. For example, though your Sun sign might be Taurus, your rising sign could very well be Gemini. While you’re feeling laid-back, others will tend to see you as a ball of nervous energy and cerebral wit.

At times, your rising sign may act as a mask, hiding some aspect of your inner self you don’t feel like revealing. Your Ascendant sign describes your temperament, your outward mannerisms and behavior, the personality you put on public display. It is the part of yourself you are most willing for other people to see in casual, impersonal situations. Changes here will explain why even people born on the same day as you will have very different personalities, different strengths and interests, and different life experiences.

The Ascendant is also called the Rising Sign of a person’s chart. Astrologers use the two terms interchangeably. It is literally the sign that was rising on the Eastern horizon of the sky at the time you were born in the place where you were born. This is why it is essential to have both a birthplace and a birth time in order to cast a completely valid Natal Chart.

In Chinese astrology, there are 12 zodiac signs which are represented symbolically by 12 animal signs. These animal signs take their turn to govern a given year based on the Chinese solar calendar or Sixty Jia Zi system. Each animal sign has typical characteristic associated with the year of birth based on the five elements of wood, fire, earth, metal and water. Each year, one of the elements and animal signs will rule the year. The animal sign that rules the year is also given the peculiar name of Grand Duke Jupiter which is associated with the celestial bodies. In 2009, it is rule by the Grand Duke Ox and the ruling element is earth. When you combine the Ox and the earth, it becomes the year of the Earth Ox. If you wish to get a free reading of your astrological chart based on Chinese Four Pillars of Destiny, you can visit http://www.bazidestiny.synthasite.com.

Every year, the Grand Duke Jupiter will move into a different sector in the house and the palace in which it occupies for the year will be afflicted with negative energies. In the year of the Earth Ox (2009), the Grand Duke Jupiter flies into the Northeast 1 sector of a house and its direction is northeast 1. If you were born in the year of the Ox, you are said to be offending the Grand Duke Jupiter of the year. What it means is that the energy in you or qi (the energy you were infused with at time of birth based on Chinese Astrology) is tuned in the same direction with the energy of the year and such an alignment of energy creates negative outcomes for the person. You will face with many setbacks and obstacles in the year relating to wealth, health and relationship. In order to avoid such bad luck, all residents in the property should not sit or sleep facing Northeast 1 direction, especially the resident with the animal sign of Ox. If you were born in the year of the Goat, you are said to be clashing with the Grand Duke Jupiter of the year. In other words, your energy or qi is tuned in the opposite direction against the energy of the year because the Goat manifests itself as the Year Breaker and it occupies the southwest 1 sector. This will also have negative effects on you and the year ahead will be likewise stressful and problematic. The other animal signs that conflict with the Grand Duke Jupiter of the year are Horse (harmful clash) and Dragon (destructive clash).

On the contrary, the Grand Duke Jupiter of the year can also bring positive outcome for residents who were born in the year of the Rat, Rooster and Snake. To put it in an astrological perspective, the energy of the year combines with your energy or qi. It means that there is certain compatibility or affinity in the relationship between the Ox, the Rat, the Rooster and the Snake. If you are one of these animal signs, the year ahead is auspicious and you will have success when it comes to people, relationship, health and wealth.

Based on Chinese metaphysics or Feng Shui, a house is divided into nine grids within which there are eight sectors or directions - the center, four primary sectors/directions and four secondary sectors/directions. The four primary sectors/directions are North, South, East and West whereas the four secondary sectors/directions are NW, SE, NE and SW. The center of the house is not included in the compass directions. In 2009, the inauspicious energies known as Five Yellow, Three Killings and Year Breaker occupy north 1, east and southwest 1 respectively. Five Yellow brings major illnesses and obstacles whereas Three Killing comprises the triple combo of negative energies and are associated with disaster, robbery (financial losses) and accidents. The Year Breaker is the animal sign which is opposite in direction to the Grand Duke Jupiter. These 3 negative energies afflict the resident who resides in the sector concerned. This affliction will manifest in unlucky outcomes for the resident such as accidents, financial losses and illnesses. In order to avoid the ill effects of such affliction, the resident should keep the place undisturbed and there should not be any knocking of the wall, digging of the ground or activities that create noises and vibrations.

A person will need to undertake an actual analysis of his or her natal chart in order to unravel what destiny really has in store for him or her, not only for this year but the years ahead. This article only shows you one of the basic applications of the amazing vast fields of Chinese Astrology known as Four Pillars of Destiny.

Mohan Potukuchi asked:


Muhurtha (Electional Astrology) is a branch of Indian Astrology dealing with fixing of ‘auspicious moments of time’ for conducting important and sacred ceremonies. One can find Indians referring a ‘Panchang’ or consulting an astrologer for a ‘muhurat’ when they either want to conduct an important ceremony like marriage, ‘upanayan’ (thread ceremony for

‘Brahmins’),’gruha pravesh’ (house warming) etc. or when they would like to embark upon an important work. Even politicians and government

departments would consult their pet astrologer and fix a muhurtha for oath-taking or inauguration ceremonies!

Astrology has a necessary relation with time. It deals with the effects of planetary motions including the sun and the moon. Its basic tenet is

the confirmed scientific fact of the effects of radiation on all terrestrial phenomena. That the Hindus discovered it ages before is a testimony to the intelligence and accomplishments of that generation. The effect of sun’s rays on biological activity and those of the moon

on psychological processes is well-established. Agricultural activities like planting, cultivation, growth, maturity and harvest are all dependent upon seasonal changes and solar radiation.

What is muhurtha? Why is it important? This can be better understood with regard to its role in astrology. General horoscopy deals with predictions about a native with regard to the time he or she was born. It is static, fixed and beyond one’s control or determination. On the other hand, muhurtha is dynamic. One can choose the most suitable or auspicious times at different stages of life where there are

chances of changes in one’s destiny. Thus a marriage performed on a particular day may change the course of one’s life. This is not

superstition. A marriage taking place at an inauspicious time can lead to disastrous consequences or divorce or life-long agony. According to the late Dr.B.V.Raman, the greatest Indian astrologer of the modern age, “While horoscopy prescribes, muhurtha remedies”. Muhurtha is prescriptive as well as preventive. The deficiencies noticed in a natal chart can be overcome with the proper application of muhurtha. Thus a child diagnosed (astrologically) as weak in education can be initiated into alphabet learning or first sent to school at an auspicious moment.

Muhurtha, essentially means two ‘ghatis’ or forty-eight minutes. The essential elements comprise ‘tithi’(lunar day),’vara’(weekday),’nakshatra’

(constellation),’yoga’(joint motion of sun and moon amounting to multiples of 800 angular minutes) and ‘karana’(half a lunar day). These

five elements collectively are called ‘panchang’, that is, ‘five limbs’. In considering ‘tithi’, generally the 4th,6th,8th,12th,14th,full moon(’pournami’) and new moon (’amavasya’) are avoided. In some parts of South India,

New Moon day is believed to be auspicious. In regard to ‘vara’, in general Tuesday and Saturday are considered inauspicious though they are valid

for surgical operations. One should note that in Indian Astrology, the weekday is said to commence from sunrise. Of the twenty-seven ‘nakshtras’, Bharani and Krittika are avoided for all works as they are said to be presided over by Yama, the lord of death. In ‘yoga’, the 6th,9th,10th,17th and 27th are inauspicious. Of the ‘karanas’, ‘bhadra’ is the most unwanted

while ‘bava’ and ‘thaithula’ are very auspicious.

After taking into account twenty-one ‘mahadoshas’(great evils), the

astrologer suggests good muhurthas attaching great importance to ‘lagna’ (ascendent or the rising cusp) and position of the moon. The

moon is to be avoided in the 6th,8th and the 12th houses at any cost. Thus fixing a muhurtha is a time-consuming arduous task for an Indian

astrologer. For normal purposes, people take into account one or more of ‘tithi’ or ‘nakshatra’ or ‘chandra bala’ or ‘tara bala’ or ‘rahu kalam’ or’durmuhurt’ or ‘thyaja kala’. While in Tamil Nadu, South India, reliance on ‘Rahu Kalam’ is very common, in North India, people follow a similar one called ‘choughadia’ for routine works. However, when a muhurta is fixed, the ‘panchaka’ (five-source energy) should be

strong.
