December 2018 - January 2019 Astrological Insights based on Jyotish planetary positions and movements. Siddha Astro Knowledge and Insight into the New Coming 2019 Year. 
How to catch a momentum and Transform Self and Relationships. How to improve realationships with oneself and the other and gain true spiritual confidence? 
​
In November 17, 2018, Venus turns direct, yet Mercury is turning retrograde. November - December 2018 time is the time to go back and retrospect relationships and communications, to analyse and contemplate self-love, level of inner confidence, a deeper understanding of own needs and wants, including the way we express them or communicate them, while in a partnership. This partnership can be business or personal.

Due to Jupiter being in Scorpio, we are able to clearly observe own dimensions of sexuality and are able to notice the roots, transforming these roots and thus, our way of self-expression and sexuality. Spirituality and Sexuality are inseparable and are a natural way to express self. Perverted spirituality results in a perverted form of sexuality, and vice versa. 

This time is a specific astrological momentum. Most of the planets are concentrated in the constellations of Scorpio and Libra. It opens up a lot of potential for inmost realisations about relationships, self-love, self-respect, personal choice, and its grounds and the ways to deal with the inner and outer dramas wisely. With mars in Aquarius, gradually transiting into Pisces, helps us not to rush and see relationships beyond passions, lust and sexual attractions only. As well as helps us to realise deeper roots for our passions and certain attractions. It almost opens up a door to explore the spiritual aspect of sexuality and intimacy (two different, but interdependent aspects of our being). For the past several months, during the retrograde cycle of Venus, certain crucial points from the past have pointed out issues within ourselves related to these areas. And now we have gained more clarity and understanding about these aspects within ourselves and from the others.
Venus will continue its direct motion through Libra into Scorpio through December-January months. Such a long stay in one sign means it is the best time to resolve inner aspects related to self-worth, self-love, relationships and get a deeper spiritual insight into these areas. 
It would mean that we would gain more clarity about our past patterns in relationships and will be able to transform inner traumas and distortions related to these patterns. It is one of the best times to resolve many stale issues related to emotions, childhood traumas around self-esteem, self-love, self-identity and gender roles.

On a spiritual level, it means that it is one of the best times to cultivate inner clarity through stillness and equanimity, realising the transitory nature of relationships. Through the change we see permanence, and within the permanence we see a constant change. The most important is to learn to maintain inner stillness and observe the external change through it, staying untouched by the external phenomenon.
Transformation is not necessarily about creating an external change. At first, we are to transform within, in order to manifest a desirable change outwards. When things change, allow the change to flow, sticking to the inner stillness and contentment. Do not entertain your mind with throughs and emotions related to any phenomena in your life. Do not try to hold onto the change or try to stop it. Hold onto the inner stillness and equanimity and you will realise the eternal. 

During these planetary positions and aspects, we have a chance to realise the connection between our vision, spirituality, love and connection and the true notion of truly compatible relationships that stretches further into the scope of practical living and sharing. Many relationships will undergo transformation, due to being unpractical or lacking connection or having an internal conflict or imbalance.

True relationship is not just about love or sexual interaction only, but is also about a spiritual connection, like-mindedness and the sharing of the same vision for life (thoughts and ideas, for instance). Yet, even this might not be enough to have a truly balanced and content relationship for life. A balanced love partnership means having a coherent, mutually-fulfilling link between the spiritual, emotional and sexual aspects within the relationship as well as being able to apply these aspects in a practical way, in every day living, interacting, problem-solving and by equally maintaining and nurturing the long-term life vision.

During this time of November 2018 - January 2019 we have an opportunity to analyse various aspects of our current relationships and to see, whether that corresponds with the vision for the relationships we would like to have. Such introspection is important, in order to combine the reality with the inner vision.  

A true relationship is a reflection of an inner balance or imbalance and is based on a level of understanding of self and one's ability to communicate this self to others. It is also about one's ability to practically combine various features/ characteristics of the self with the flow of living and sharing with the others. And it is not always that easy or even practically possible. In order to gain a deeper insight into relationships and the self, we are to drop all the previously gained social stereotypes and concepts, romantic ideas and sexual models of behaviour and see all our current connections, longings and relationships from the equanimous point of view, from the point of view of spiritual wisdom and understanding. 

We are to see the multidimensionality of relationships reflecting the multidimensionality of the self. The deeper we know the self - the clearer we are going to know what we want and how to build harmonious relationships with the other. Yet, the first step is always about the self - honesty to self, inner contentment, maturity and one's ability to communicate and express self clearly and directly to the other. These astrological aspects are helping us to realise that. 
If one is content, one is able to express self in a non-violent way and is able to create the balance around. On the other hand, if one is very distorted and imbalanced, all these imbalances will manifest in one's relationship with the other. All these distortions and inner unrefined aspects of the self will reflect on the quality of the relationship with the other. 

Jupiter in Scorpio marks a beginning of a deep transformational stage especially starting from the mid of December 2018, when the Sun moves into the sign of Scorpio and conjoins Jupiter. During the aspect of Mercury retrograde together with the Sun and Jupiter, it is one of the best times to contemplate and refine ancestral programs, victimisation programs and deeply rooted negative patterns of behaviour. 
Spiritual shifts, new experiences, deeper spiritual states are possible at this time. It is also one of the best times to let go of unnecessary relationships, friendships, business partnerships or to reconsider their role and or importance in our life. There can be changes in some families, related to the death of close relatives, inheritance issues, or a conception of a long-awaited baby. The interest in Astrology, unconventional spirituality and all the hidden knowledge will be on the rise. 
Some relationships, especially distant ones, may undergo changes. There can be a deeper realisation about current distant partners. Some may realise that another person is only a trigger for one's inner emotions of love and is necessary for the spiritual refinement. Such connections may stay only on a spiritual/ intellectual levels or develop into some new forms of a relationship without any need to be conditioned or institutionalised, being a source of inspiration and spiritual connection only. This is the time, when we are to refine the idealistic forms of emotional love and projections into the practical form of self-expression and the manifestation of the relationship, where we are able to grow and evolve together and share deeper levels of this self-expression. All the relationships that are idealistic or impractical may stay either on the same level without much progress or will be dissolved during this time.  

As a conclusion, there is a lot of room for contemplation and refinement in the areas of love, self-love, marriage, and partnership. And we will definitely come out a new person after this January 2019.

​
The year 2019 may become a year of revolutionary transformation for humanity, and all the wonders are yet to be discovered. This transformation will first of all, touch the areas of energy and resources and the way we are able to share them and utilise in a proper, organic way.

This coming year could also bring a lot of transformation to the earth and its landscape. There may be floods and earthquakes that could much reshape some areas on the planet. It is the year, when religious/ spiritual institutions will undergo changes, and the way we express self spiritually may also change. There will be new spiritual and spirituality related scientific breakthroughs this year. 

Let's look ahead to the transformative and spiritually enriching year 2019 ahead.

This Article is dedicated to all those enlighten gurus whose Light and spiritual Might do not allow the world to sink in complete darkness and ignorance, whose presence enlightens, bestows knowledge and preserves the seed of Param-Para. To those light beings I bow as one pure radiant consciousness.

There are so many people nowadays who call themselves spiritual guides, gurus and enlighten beings. In the age of Darkness, Avidya, Ignorance and Emotional Imbalance it is hard to know who is who and where to look for the truth. Siddhas have long ago predicted the age of Darkness and Ignorance and warned people about crowds of spiritual charlatans, criminals and those who would mislead others in the name of spirituality and the truth.

True teaching is not for a crowd nor it has ever been. In order to realise how to dispel darkness within self, we have to mature enough to see distortions within. We have to mature enough to realise that teaching will never appear in the way we expect it to appear nor will a true teacher.

True teachers can be recognised by their simplicity, honesty to self, straight-forwardness and purity. True teachers do not put a show, do not wear special distinct cloths and do not make a big deal out of themselves. They do not care about titles, names, rewards or fame in any form. They do not want to be proclaimed kings of this illusion. True teachers are accessible to genuine seekers. They are walking temples who receive everyone the same way, yet true teachers recognise genuine call, sincerity and devotion and dispel hypocrisy, dishonesty and conditioning.

True teachers have no taboos, do not follow someone's rules or morals. They follow inner wisdom, non-violence and accept life in its all colours. They may appear as crazy, foolish, wise, sophisticated or simple and down to earth, they flow in life, are flexible, sometimes unpredictable, yet balanced and do not judge. Nevertheless, they see clearly who is who and what is what. Their being reflects others and their distortions. 

True teachers have powerful presence and vibrations around them. These vibrations are not separate from them, are not a sign of siddhis but an emanation of their pure, enlighten being, that is soothing and transformative (they create a permanent shift in others' being, awake and transform them). Such beings are rare. They awake and transform others with the power of their conscious intent and blessings, transmitting knowledge in words and beyond words, bestowing direct experience of being, yoga, absorption. Such beings spread knowledge effortlessly wherever they step. Such beings evolve, by cultivating their light being and through non-violence.

They are true GURUs - those who possess a tremendous spiritual gravitational field. Their spiritual gravity and purity heals, teaches and transforms anyone who comes in touch with them.

The first GURU was ADI NATH. True power of awakening and inner transformation, as well as the power to consciously evolve was given to the humanity by AdiNath through Param-Para - the power of Transmission of knowledge through experience as well as the way to preserve true knowledge in an undistorted way.

Gurupurnima is celebrated in the summer months between July and August. This period is considered to be highly pure and vibrant and the moment of full moon is the right time for complete awakening and transformation within.

Those with the maturity and genuine desire to evolve, awake and refine self have a great chance to experience the blessing of the higher realms during these months and especially during the full moon, known as Gurupurnima.

Gurupurnima is the time, when adepts contemplate on and express gratitude towards their spiritual guide, Param-Para and consciously connect to the higher realms, searching for further blessings and guidance.
It is believed that through the deep devotional connection with one’s true Guru, one evolves out of the darkness of self and evolves further. In order to meet a true guru one is to be mature and free from arrogance of “I know it all” and free from conditioning of how one’s GURU is to look, appear as well as one is to be free from dreams of power, siddhis and other spiritual hallucinations.

Most of the people have not realised that they are sunk in victimisation and tons of spiritual  and occult information. They are drawn to people who pet their narcissism and spiritual delusion rather than try to disillusion them. This tendency creates a market of charlatans who propagate spiritual falsehood, attract people who are ambitious and know only spiritual action and who do not wish to transform but wish to be petted and uplifted. Such approach within people creates a huge supply of those “spiritual guides” that fit these people's inner desires, demands and dreams. These are clear signs of Kali Yuga - the age of Delusion and Ignorance.

On the other hand, it is very hard to refine self and awake to self delusion in this era of ignorance, and it is even harder to transform and free self from the plague of distorted self, false identities, ego, narcissism and victimisation. That is why, it is extremely hard to find and/ or recognise true genuine gurus at this age. 

True gurus are eternal students of existence/ life. Their life is simple and routine life, they live, learn, study and explore, refine self and support those who ask them for help. They may live as if an ordinary life and be unknown to the public. They do not impose themselves or convert people, they do not proclaim to be the only ones. Yet, they clearly see genuine from not genuine. They do not interfere, however. They have realised the time and space, the era they are living in and have accept it as it is. They know the truth for themselves and share it only with the worthy ones. It is so not because they discriminate but because only those of the pure nature can perceive the purity and light within self. Before that, they are to make effort, to spend a great deal of time observing self, refining self and cultivating equanimity and inner light.

Spiritual evolution is full of effort when one has not found a true Guru - a true Protector. Spiritual evolution is smooth and flowing when one has the true Guru. Our Consciousness and Life however are always there to guide us to the point when we become ripe for the manifestation of a true living Guru for further evolution of self.

I bow down to the higher realms of existence of Self and pray to dispel darkness, ignorance, complexity and violence within those who look for purity and light within.
I bow down to Adi Guru, to Siddha Param-Para and to the Being for having blessed me with the Guru.
True Gurus may appear in our lives unexpectedly and not the way we imagine, project or dream of. They will definitely shift our perspective on everything, sometimes without uttering a word.

This is the power of a true Guru, whose presence teaches, heals and transforms. If one is able to bypass self-conditioning/ projections, recognises this and surrenders one's transitory illusionary self to the Guru's presence, the darkness dissolves in the Guru's light, and one discovers self as the same pure selfless light being, one discovers immense inner power, devotion and immortal grace in one's life. One gradually merges with the presence of one's guru and bathes in the Light of self-being. One becomes the embodiment of spiritual alchemy, knowledge, spiritual power and immortality. Such is the power of protection and blessing of the true Guru. 

"Guru's feet" is the eternal radiant presence of the Guru that is always there as an invisible link guiding and protecting us from the darkness of self. That is why, we are to hold onto this blissful equanimous presence, as if holding onto "Guru's feet". "Guru's feet" is our foundation before we mature within self. This foundation is that equanimous blissful aware of self being that the guru has awoken within ourselves, and we are to hold on it no matter what, with full unconditional trust and devotion. 

May this Gurupurnima bestow clarity, contentment and inner healing to all of us, and strengthen our connection with self-being and with our true Guru.

Blessings,

If one is unawares of the actual process of Kundalini Awakening, has imaginary ideas or someone else's delusional ideas about the process  and exercises imagination, drug abuse or suspicious occult practices, or if there is a feeling of a foreign presence in the body it might be far from the real authentic Kundalini (Spiritual) awakening empowered through Siddha Param-Para and could be mistaken by an unawares person for the true Kundalini awakening. 

Many a time, it could be spiritual (entity) possession or channeling or occult presence in one's life or through one's ancestral history that has shown up through spiritual practices or pilgrimage (visiting of the spiritual sites, temples, forests, etc.) or drug/ herbal stimulants abuse, interaction with suspicious spiritual people, claiming to be "gurus", "tantra masters", fakirs who use various magical tricks and rituals to attract more followers - spiritual slaves or mislead people by mesmerising them with the fakir-like tricks and promises. 

The majority of the currently proclaimed "spiritual masters and gurus" are none else but magicians, occultists or commercial teachers, employing lower tantra, sexual, fire or other tantra rituals for commercial and self-gratification reasons, for the growth of their movements, attracting and deluding people and promising to solve all their problems through astrology, tarot, magic, other occult means and rituals.

Many a times, they are unawares themselves of the karmic consequences of their actions having on them and their followers and the amount of karmic entanglement created through such practices. Such entanglement is unfortunately realised (through negative physical and emotional states) only afterwards, when one feels empty, imbalanced, spiritually hungry, abused or stripped of energy and power, sick or poor and more confused than before. Spiritual theft and slavery are very widely-spread, yet hardly anyone realises it right away. People want to believe in spirituality of their imagination, yogic stories they read and other delusional ideas. 

In the name of spirituality, people entrust their lives, emotional, mental, spiritual energy to suspicious people, the "masters and gurus" of cults and road tantrics. It happens because the majority of people are on a look out for fast enlightenment, and magical powers, siddhis, supernatural abilities. They are driven by delusional yogic stories of the "charlatan self-proclaimed yoga masters" who came to the West in the 20th century and in the name of "yoga and enlightenment", created million dollar movements, spiritual corporations and hooked up half of the ignorant people onto drugs, spiritual stories and false knowledge and misled the other half by promising them fast enlightenment if they followed them.

The result is that all these, now older generation of people are still confused and in search of the ways to navigate out of this delusion, hoping to truly realise who they are, find enlightenment and achieve the long-promised moksha. They are forced to continue their quest and spiritual shopping now through the new Age market of spiritual charlatan, occultists, magicians and spiritual frauds who belief in their own delusion simply because they felt a bit more than the rest of the ignorant population, read rare books or traveled and met some tantrics, babas or people in robes who claimed authority on spiritual science or mesmerised them into the belief that now they know more than the rest.  Or they had a contact with astral entities that empowered their spiritual narcissism and deluded them into a believe that they have achieved something, and now have a "spiritual authority or mastery" on spiritual sciences of yoga, kundalini awakening, communication with the deceased ones and magic.

Most of the supernatural powers people claim to get, or healing or psychic abilities people claim to have are abilities of the occult (hidden) entities ( elemental, astral other dimensional) entities to who such people connect through their occult or other suspicious practices in the name of true yoga or religion. These entities delude them into the belief of being enlightened, into the belief of being a messiah, a saint or a guru or a master. Yet, such channellers remain ignorant to the actual source of their newly discovered "power" and become slaves to such powers or abilities. They do not evolve spiritually but look for gratification deluding themselves by "offering healing help to others", thinking they do good to others. Such beings do not understand the way they involve themselves and those they try to heal into more karmic entanglements. They are not able to see karmic patterns and reasons of people's imbalances and disease and thus there is no true healing or a conscious shift that would lead to healing. Such healing has karmic implications. Such "wanna-be spiritual healers and teachers" essence is unrefined and thus false identity takes over their being and life, deluding themselves and others about their good intentions to teach "the truth", channel "the truth" , "heal or enlighten others".

Such powers are not true yogic powers or higher Siddhis. If one's power comes through one's mature being and light essence without any mediumship such power is one's own spiritual achievement. If there is any mediumship, the power comes from entities, occult, control over the elemental forces, spirits, the occult world.  

The good news is that we have spirituality that resonates with the current age of delusion. That is why there is no point in spiritual shopping or search for anything true on the market of spiritual delusion. If one is mature enough, one will discover the truth and true guidance at the right time, free from spiritual ambitions and true guidance will manifest, no doubt. Such knowledge will come beyond words as a powerful Transmission that will smitten and shatter all the illusions and delusions of the past. Such knowledge is rare and can hardly be recognised by the majority among the prevailing dellusion and spiritual hallucination of the current age. 

It is impossible to change the world, neither it is required. The wise men, Siddhas and other true masters have long ago understood that the path to self-mastery and enlightenment is the path of simplicity, selflessness, self-refinement and non-interference unless this interference is to clear up certain obstructions on one's path and if no other way is possible. Thus, everything is right, no matter how strange it might appear to an unrefined mind.
