The very reason you are reading this article will indicate that you under the influence of Saturn. The Influence of Saturn to you is Either by its Major or sub period as per your birth astrological chart or you will be under the influence of 71/2 or Artha Ashtama Sani or Ashtama Saturn as per your Moon Sign placement.
Strange but this is a fact that I observed in my life with many people.
What is Saturn ? Why so much Significance to it? What it has to do with number 8?
Yes, all of these above questions are connected and they have strong meaning and reason for it.
Lets Discuss... As per Vedic System, heavenly bodies...Saturn is last planet which has direct impact or influence on the earth..Though Neptune and pluto are discovered later, not part of astrological importance as they are too small to create impact on earth due to astronomical distance, so Astrologically they are not considered.
Being the last planet is solar system, it takes the longest elliptical path around the sun, as well as longest time to complete one revolution, 30 years!, Unlike Venus or Mercury which would hardly take 28 days to 36 days for one revolution, because of proximity to sun, as well as small orbital path.
Being slow to move around, it extracts great influence on earth and on the people, it will reflect how people think and feel.
Say if there is a problem, the problem is there for a month, and then everything gets to normalcy, you will not find or think about problem in great length.
Where as if you have a problem.. and the problem.. runs into weeks.. months.. and then almost say for 30 weeks... which 2 1/2 years.. you will realise that the problem has changed the way you lived your life.
It would have changed your thinking pattern, perception, people and their would have complete change of personality. This what Saturn Can do.. It will completely change the way you think about your life.
Since Saturn is far away from sun it is really cold, so when person go through Saturn Dasa (Major Period)/ Bhukthi (Minor Period) according to astrological chart or as per moon sign, their life experience would have so strange. You will know, life would have been so cold to you, cold represents cruel, no mercy at all.
Hot & cold are the extremes where no life can survive. Especially being cold we can't even comprehend ..
Say even in personalities if someone is hot personality, he will give us clue by shouting or reacting to us, where in we could realise what the person is trying to say or pointing to.
But if a person is cold, he will not give much clue, you have to go through the struggle and then find out that what the person intended to say or what is the actual problem.. So this what Saturn is..
With Saturn you will not shown any mercy at all, your life will be upside down, you would be wondering life was so beautiful and simple.. suddenly a Earth quake.. Tsunami.. Cyclone.. Volcanic Eruption..Completely destroys our life. You could not comprehend .. and there will be continuous attack... it would be so cruel..Life would be crumbling!
We wonder . Where is god? where is truth? Why me? What is happening to my life?
I have so much to write up.. I will continue later when I get time.
Bye
