Aslesha devastates !







479 houses were destroyed and a big building sank during yesterday's rain fury.

A three storied building simply sank and three people died in yesterday's destruction. Now people are heaving sighs of relief, as it is a sunny day today.

The solar transit of Alpha Cancri or Aslesha is half good and half bad, Ayilya Kallan Akatho Puratho ! Aslesha is Serpent Energy combined with Wisdom and is ruled by Mercury !

The devastation of Pushya




The devastatation of Pushya Njattuvela was not confined to Kerala. We had evacuations on the Kosi in BIhar, landslide in Maharashtra and now the Chinese earthquake. Anyway, thank the Lord, for Pushya's exit!

At 0819 AM, the Sun entered Aslesha or Alpha Cancri. Aslesha is ruled by Mercury. Sometimes it will rain and sometimes it will not, as per the popular saying, Ayilya Kallan akatho puratho !


Pushya Njattuvela wreaks havoc ! - Floods in Kerala






Waterlogged streets - uprooted trees - houses destroyed - agri lands flooded - these are the reports that come from Kerala, as Pushya devastates. A Saturnine devastation !

Why is Karkataka Masa called Ramayana Masa ?


Because the First Poet, Valmiki, wrote the First Poem, Ramayana, during this Holy Month of Kataka.


Southern Solstice or Dakshinayana


Today Sun entered Zero Degree Sidereal Cancer, Nirayana Kataka, thus initiating the Southern Solstice or Dakshinayana.

Amongst the two Solstices, Southern is considered medium and Northern highly auspicious.

Ayane Uttare Sreshta Madhyamam Dakshinayanam.

According to Electional Astrology, installation of the Idol or Prathishta in temples are done during Uttarayana.

.

Cancer New Moon or Karkataka Vavu on Jul 26th.



Millions throng to river banks like Thiru Navaya and places like Thiru Nelli to do Tharpanam to departed ancestors on this highly auspicious day.

In all families, there will be verbal clashes. Father vs Mother vs Son vs Daughter. We may have hurt our parents, either consciously or unconsciously. Our children may also hurt us ! When our children hurt us, know that it is Karma working ! We are getting our wages !

So Tharpana is a great spiritual and psychological exercise and we pray for forgiveness from our departed parents, Samasthaparadham Kshamashva ! We invoke the Seven Sacred Rivers and pray for forgiveness.

Ganga cha Yamuna chaiva
Godavari  Saraswati
Narmada Sindhu  Kaveree 
Jalesmin Sannidhim Kuru 

We also pray for forgiveness from the Lord, Samasthaparadham Kshamasva Akhilesha !
