Ring - Water
Little - Earth

Best substitues for diamonds

Can anyone tell me what would be the best out of white sapphire, white topaz and white Zircon? And would it be better to have, say 5 carats of those or diamond of a very modest wight?

Thanks

Re: A special rule for wearing gemstones

I wonder what would happen if someone wears more than the prescribed rattis. For instance, in the above example given, what would happen if a person weighing 67 kg wears 10 rattis? Personally, I feel there must a limit to the number of rattis one can wear. Just like eating the optimum amount of food ...

A special rule for wearing gemstones

I came across this while researching about gemstones and I thought I would share it here. This small article covers the 'optimum weight' of gemstones one should wear and also how much time the gem may take to react. So, without further ado:

The proper weight of a gem to impact human life is still ...

Wearing gemstones depending upon placement of planets.. etc

I am an Aquarius Lagna as well as Rashi, with Venus placed in the 4th house; but in a Mrityu avastha. Now, I am sure that anyone who has even a modest knowledge of astrology knows that Diamond (representing Venus) is the best gemstone for Aquarius, being the Lord of 4th and 9th houses and a friend ...

Books on Astronomy?

Does anyone know any good books on
1) astronomy for astrology
2) astronomy (for astronomy itself)

This is a book I have for now-The Complete Idiot's Guide to Astronomy, Second Edition. Any thoughts on it?

Re: about 3/4th & 1/2 aspects

SK, If only novices like me could know what goes unwritten ; ) I remember the 80-20 thing you said on chat.
But on a more serious note, I can gauge how cumbersome it would become to write about 7 planets aspecting each other in multiple times.

I just think that in some cases, they should be ...

Re: Learned seers, I need some guidance

Thank you for your insight, StellarAstrologer & pardon the delay from my side. I have come to realize long time back that to master the intricacies of astrology is not an easy task but I like the way you put it. I especially liked your thoughts on many charts being used to justify Obama's chart, and ...

Re: about 3/4th & 1/2 aspects

Thank you Mr Subramanian, SK & others for posting. After getting no replies, I had come to the conclusion that perhaps my question was non-sensical.

Its sad that in practice, I have seen people only focussing on the full aspects & completely disregarding the partial ones.

Re: Learned seers, I need some guidance

I thank you earnestly for replying AnhRaMoon, but being not so clarivoyant, I would rather seek knowledge via more tangible mediums such as a human preceptor or a book.

Learned seers, I need some guidance

I wish to learn more of astrlogy. I have been sutdying parashri astrology for a while & I intend to also learn KP & Jaimini. I am by no means an expert in Parashri so it make sense that I improve upon my prashri knowledge before learnign any other kind of jyotish, but since most jyotish courses ...

Re: What are the best books to Start with?

Apart from the books that you have listed, KN Rao's books seem to be good for the basics. 'Fundamentals of Jyotish' by Visti Larsen is also a good book.

Try also to get all the classic books like BPHS, Saravali & Jattaka tattwa.

'Jyotish-a primer' by Rohini Ranjan is also a good book although its ...

A quick question about aspects by malefics

How would you say, a functional malefic impacts his friends by aspect?
Lets say, aries rising, saturn exalted in 7th house, & Jupiter in 9th house, Saturn is a functional malefic here but a friend of jupiter due to temporal relationships. How would its impact be on jupiter & the 9th house?

& in youtube also, you can watch some videos only after you see the ad, thats much more forcible than this website.
I would, in fact encouage LOVA to display more ads & even popups.

Re: Feature request, ideas & suggestions for future developm

I agree with Swamykool & others. In T.V, for watching a 30 min show, you have to see 10 min ads. Do you jsut expect free things without giving anything in return? Its not if as you are paying.
