Astrology is a comprehensive study into the dynamics of all Nature driven forces responsible for our physical and dynamic existence, individually and collectively. It is a discipline by itself with its own philosophy and guiding principles, having evolved progressively, in correspondence with Nature that holds the key to all Existence. The intent and purpose of this Divine Discipline has been really noble. It is aimed at studying all facets of human mechanism at the gross and subtle levels. Having known one's basic fabric of making, it becomes possible to take necessary corrective initiatives and give a qualitative turn to our Karma for a successful and meaningful life through conscious efforts. Here the question arises on whether our life is not fated? To address this question, it is worth mentioning here that Plants & Trees have a predetermined flowering and fruit bearing cycles. Even animals are bound to their preset mating and breeding cycles. On the contrary, such limitations do not apply to human beings implying thereby that we enjoy choice. This element of freewill, being our exclusive preserve, enjoins us with the capacity to shape our Karma at our will. The faculty to act at one's will is a great strength. But given the state of pliable human mind, it could prove disastrous if applied the negative way. Therefore, it becomes incumbent upon us to know our limitations also equally well. That calls for a look into the dynamics of our making. Here it needs to be appreciated that it is only when we conduct ourselves within the frame of the Design parameters underlying our existence that we could apply our resources to their optimum level and be at our best.

| In this connection, Energy that set into motion the very formation of this Dynamic world deserves precedence over Mind and Body out of the three components of our making. Going by the Oriental philosophic understanding of Life, Energies excited by agitation of Primordial source holds the key to all the Life structure and the support mechanism in existence. The Unified Field Theory perceived by the Scientific Order whereby all forces in existence have supposedly emerged from one common source reflects analogous perception. It is here that Astrology comes into play as it encompasses in its fold the entire spectrum of energies extended by Nature. The energy orchestra beginning from the Primordial source progressed in stages to form a series of galaxies in succession each maintaining continuum with the previous one. Finally at the functional plane, they become available through the Planets and Stars in the galaxy to find reflection in all departments of our lives both at macro and micro levels. In fact, an Astrological Map is nothing but a graphical reflection of the Energy Formation of Nature, at a particular point of time that excites the course of lives of those born under its influence. The energy flux of that moment finds impression in the basic fabric of one's making as also the progressive life pattern to follow. That the energy providers are ever on the move in their respective axis with Sun as the centre, the energy blend available keeps varying every moment and that is what differentiates one person from the other.
Emissions available from every planetary body exhibit their exclusive characteristic features in terms of wavelength and frequency. Every such emission primarily excites a particular corresponding reception point in the brain, of course extending sub-influence over the other interconnected areas. That every such point of brain is said to administer set functions of body, mind and psyche is how these energies influence our life pattern. In a recent scientific study, every major gland in human body has been found corresponding to a particular planet. Similarly the 12 sets of Cranial nerves have been found to carry impressions of the 12 Zodiac divisions of the Map of Heaven. It will be worth enlightening here that every zodiacal division of the Elliptic, the plane over which the Sun moves, reflects impression of the group of stars over that region. That accounts for the influence of innumerable stars in the cosmos otherwise difficult to encompass the whole lot individually. The planets too are not to be seen in isolation. They carry along influence of their Moons and other auxiliary bodies around them. Obviously therefore, the planetary placements in the backdrop of the zodiacal divisions reveal an overall picture of the energy formation of nature at a particular point of time.
This was all about implications of nature's energy formation at the gross level. All functions on our part at the visible level are steered by systems operative at imperceptible level. A look therefore into their making and mechanics of working deserves attention. Here again Cosmic Energies act as the prime mover to find reflection in terms of our Individual Consciousness and the corresponding Mind frame. Let us now have a look at the Energy Orchestra that excited the dynamic process responsible for creation of the manifest world. The chain began with agitation of the self-effulgent Un-manifest Neutral (The Primordial Source) when some of its elements might have exploded to split into if not more, at least 3 dimensions as it happens with radioactive substances. Here it would be worth mentioning that radioactive nuclei split into threes and then multiply in geometric proportion. Thus would have emerged the three dimensions of energy being co-runner with the Prime Energy each with their respective polarity (Masculine, Feminine and the Neutral) and of course with their voids as well. The urge to meet the void arising thereby set into motion the whole dynamic process. The chain reaction of energy that followed underwent progressive enrichment in stages, the structure becoming complex at every succeeding level. Further down the line came into being triumvirate of 4 elements – Fire, Earth, Air & Water. These elements when bound together by the prime Divine force identified as the 5 th element the Ether, came into being the physical form. Also emerges in the process Individual Consciousness that serves as the driving spirit behind the physical manifest. Here it is important to note that though these elements set into motion, Individual consciousness, but as a part of reversible framework, where they would also get affected by the state of individual consciousness. Further it needs to be understood that because of random meeting of the corresponding energy components, the resultant energy structure of every individual manifest shall be different from the other and so would they vary in terms of form and attributes. The correspondence of Nature's Energy and the Individual self thus established would imply that Astrology as a discipline, has its own rationale and is in no way a belief driven mechanism as is usually portrayed.
The environment does also correspond to the periodic cycle of the planets in the galaxy. The recurring weather cycle and fluctuations if any do also correspond to the particular energy formation of the nature in as much as that any natural calamities coming our way could be envisioned to a large extent with fair degree of precision in advance. The energy formation of the immediate environment, when read together with that of the immediate higher level does also present a picture of the general awareness and consciousness level of human stock as a whole to figure out trends of our prospective collective behaviour.
Astrology is a dynamic discipline founded on the strength of well reasoned perceptions underlying our existence to serve as guiding spirit to mankind. |
