Caring appreciate­d, and some bad luck

-

MY MOTHER passed away on my birthday. What does that signify as I cared for her till her last day. I am considerin­g applying for a new job next year, will I be successful? SG I AM sorry to hear about the loss of your mom and my deepest sympathies to you. Life and death is in God’s hands. It was her time to go to heaven. You have abided by the Biblical Commandmen­t “honour thy mother and the father”. You are blessed and lucky to have taken care of her. She has showered her blessings on you and she was extremely proud and grateful to have had a sincere child like you that honour and served her till her last breath. Second, it means that she will be reborn in the family again. In 2017, you will be in a very good position at work and have a good salary.

AT THE moment my life is a disaster. I have endless problems at work and there is no room for growth or improvemen­t. I feel like people dislike me and I have no friends. My health is fine but I have a weight problem. My finances are a mess and I

have no savings to fall back on. People have robbed me and borrowed money from me and never returned it. I can drive, but have never been successful in obtaining my driver’s licence. In my love life, I have had many proposals, but after three months, it falls apart and I don’t hear from the person again. I am a spiritual person who does all relevant prayers. I feel I have no purpose on this earth and my life is meaningles­s. I am an only daughter and I feel I am a disappoint­ment to my family. I would really appreciate your help.

L.N YOU are currently under Rahu dasha. This mahadasha is generally not considered good. But this Rahu dasha is good for some people. It all depends on the position and power of Rahu, where it is situated and at what degree. In your case, Rahu is situated in the eighth house of your birth chart and also aspected by the moon. This is a bad situation. But it is also aspected by Jupiter. This is a favourable situation. So this Rahu dasha will give you mixed results of good and bad in your life. This dasha lasts for 18 years. You are in your fifth year. When this dasha is in its ninth year, it will start to give you good results. Do the following to decrease the negative effect of Rahu and make it favourable.

Fast on Saturdays – eat vegetables.

Chant “Om Namo Bhagavathe Vasudevaya” 108 times daily.

Make sure your stomach does not get upset.

Avoid eating (9 to 12 hours) before the eclipse begins in your city. Eat once the eclipse has finished. During the eclipse, you have to do some ritual that will help you for the next six months. So, continue this practice every eclipse to improve luck. Contact my offices for further compliment­ary advice and to get a secret remedy to obtain full benefits.

On the first Saturday of the month, prepare kheer and /or tea and give it to the poor. Prepare the offerings with goat milk. About Rahu:

Astronomic­ally and as per Hindu astrology, Rahu and Ketu denotes the two points of intersecti­on of the paths of the sun and the moon as they move around the celestial sphere. Therefore, Rahu and Ketu are respective­ly called the north and the south lunar nodes. The fact that eclipses occur when the sun and moon are at one of these points gives rise to the myth of the swallowing of the sun.

You should always offer water to the rising sun daily. It will help to weaken Rahu’s negative effect.

You should visualise the full moon for a few minutes every month. It will help to weaken Rahu’s negative effect. Points to remember:

You should not lend money in this dasha, as you will not get your money back and your friends will also turn into enemies or your relationsh­ips will turn ugly.

Do not borrow money. As payment will not be made possible on time.

Being overweight is a stomach related problem. Stress is one of the root causes (in 95 percent of cases) of the illness. Try to lose some weight.

Generally, in Rahu dasha, a person has a fear of the unknown. Be positive and do the above faithfully. Your fear will be removed and you will get your licence easily.
