Introduction

This article, which I published in 2017 in the thick winter of Jammu and Kashmir, analyses the profound mysteries of past life astrology and the connection between past life regression and true life events of the native, whom I met through the close connection of a friend. The article is based on real-life facts and the events that I gathered through the investigation of the life events of natives in a mystical journey of native past and present life connections from the years 2009 to 2017 onward. An interesting point is that, when I was doing deep research on native life, Saturn transited over my Natal Ketu in the sign of Sagittarius in the winter of 2017.

Vedic Astrological Rules for Past Life Astrology 

Vedic astrology, rooted in the Vedas, Hinduism’s oldest sacred texts, emphasizes the connection between celestial phenomena and human experience. This astrological practice is based on the belief that the positions of celestial bodies at the time of an individual’s birth can influence their personality, life path, and karmic experiences.

Fundamentals of Past life Astrology 

The fundamental principles of Vedic astrology include the influence of planets, the twelve zodiac signs, and the birth chart (Kundali). Each of the nine planets—Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, and the ascending and descending lunar nodes—plays a crucial role in shaping an individual’s destiny. These celestial bodies interact with the twelve signs of the zodiac, which represent different aspects of human life and personality traits. The birth chart serves as a blueprint of an individual’s life, illustrating how these planetary influences manifest throughout their existence.

Vedic vs Western Astrology in Past life Astrology 

One key distinction between Vedic astrology and Western astrology lies in their approaches to karma and past life influences. While Western astrology often focusses on personality analysis and psychological aspects, Vedic astrology delves deeper into the concept of karma, positing that one’s present life circumstances are the result of past life actions. This perspective encourages individuals to acknowledge their past life influences, facilitating better understanding and resolution of current challenges.

More calculations based on the sidereal zodiac further enhance predictive accuracy in Vedic astrology, offering a unique and holistic view of one’s life journey.

Vedic philosophy and concept of past life Astrology

Vedic philosophy intricately weaves the notion of past lives into the understanding of the self, karma, and the cycle of rebirth. Central to this perspective is the concept of karma, which asserts that every action—be it good or bad—creates an impression that influences future experiences. This belief posits that the consequences of one’s deeds not only manifest in the present life but can also extend across multiple incarnations. Therefore, this belief views individuals as continuous beings shaped by their past incarnations.

Bhagavad Gita, Upanishads and Past life Astrology 

Vedic texts, particularly the Bhagavad Gita and the Upanishads, delve into these profound ideas, elucidating the concept of the soul (Atman) embarking on a series of rebirths. The Bhagavad Gita introduces the principle of eternal life, asserting that the soul is cyclical in nature, simply transitioning from one body to another. This cycle of samsara, or wandering through various forms of life, emphasises the importance of one’s actions in shaping the future incarnations.

Upanishads and Soul Understanding ( Knowledge of Self Realization )

The Upanishads expand on these themes by discussing the relationship between karma and the soul’s liberation (moksha). They indicate that understanding and mastering one’s karma is essential for breaking free from the cycle of birth and death. This liberation signifies the culmination of a spiritual journey where the soul reunites with the ultimate reality, transcending the material world. Through meditation and self-realization, individuals can attain insight into their past lives, fostering a deeper comprehension of their current life’s challenges and experiences.

Overall, Vedic philosophy provides a rich and nuanced framework for exploring the concept of past lives, emphasising the interconnectedness of actions, consequences, and spiritual growth across multiple lifetimes.

Astrological Indicators of Past Life Astrology and Karma

Specific astrological indicators are critical in Vedic astrology for interpreting past life karma within an individual’s celestial chart. These indicators primarily include the positioning of particular planets, houses, and zodiac signs, which often reveal significant experiences and lessons carried over from past incarnations. A planetary alignment could point to unresolved seismic issues, denoting areas of both challenge and opportunity.

Understanding Karmic Planets in the Past Life Astrology 

One of the key players in this analysis is the planet Saturn, often referred to as the planet of karma. Its placement can indicate past life responsibilities and the consequences of previous actions. For instance, if Saturn resides in the fourth house, it may imply lessons related to home, family, or emotional stability, suggesting that these themes have historical roots that need addressing in this lifetime.

Role of the 12th House in Past life Astrology 

Furthermore, the twelfth house commonly represents past life experiences and hidden aspects of one’s self. Planets or specific signs that prominently activate this house may suggest that the individual is carrying forward unresolved issues or debts from previous lives. The North and South Nodes of the Moon, known as Rahu and Ketu, play a significant role; they represent the lessons the soul must learn (Rahu) and the tendencies it must overcome (Ketu), offering further insight into karmic patterns.

Role of the Navamsa ( D9) chart in Past life astrology

Another vital analytical tool in this context is the Navamsa chart, or the D-9 chart, which offers deeper insights into an individual’s spiritual and relational karma. By examining the Navamsa chart, astrologers can uncover past life influences that are affecting one’s current relationships and personal growth. For example, a significant placement in the seventh house of the Navamsa may indicate unresolved issues with partnerships that have spiritual roots and need careful navigation in this lifetime.

By thoughtfully analyzing these astrological factors, one can gain a more profound understanding of their past life karma, ultimately aiding in the journey of self-discovery and spiritual development.

Applications of Past Life Astrology

Past life astrology offers a profound lens through which individuals can gain insights into their current life dynamics. By examining astrological placements and karmic debts from previous incarnations, one can decipher the influences that shape present experiences, relationships, and personal growth. Understanding these past life implications not only fosters introspection but also paves the way for self-improvement and healing.

Past life Astrology and Personal Growth

Personal growth is one practical application of past-life astrology. Individuals can analyse their natal charts to identify recurring themes or patterns that hinder their progress. For instance, an individual consistently facing challenges in relationships may benefit from understanding a past life’s lesson related to trust or communication. By acknowledging and addressing these issues, individuals can implement strategies to break negative cycles and foster healthier interactions.

Understanding Relationships via Past life Astrology 

Relationship dynamics is another significant area where past-life astrology plays a crucial role. By comparing charts with significant others, one can reveal karmic connections and unresolved issues stemming from previous lives. This astrological insight helps individuals navigate their relationships with awareness, enabling them to resolve past conflicts and create a more harmonious connection. Embracing these revelations allows for deeper emotional intimacy and encourages forgiveness.

Sadhna, Meditation, Spiritual practices and the Past life Astrology

Moreover, spiritual practices such as meditation and rituals can be instrumental in working through past life issues. Engaging in guided meditations focused on past life regression can facilitate the release of old traumas and help individuals align with their soul’s purpose in this lifetime. Incorporating rituals that honor past life energies can also aid in karmic healing, promoting a sense of closure and renewal.

Conclusion of Application of Past life Astrology

In conclusion, integrating insights from past life astrology into daily life can enhance personal growth, improve relationships, and facilitate holistic healing. By actively engaging with these tools, individuals can embark on a journey toward self-discovery, transforming past influences into pathways for a more fulfilling life.

God has a plan for you when you are born into this world, and one of those plans is for you to either realise the prarabha, liberate yourself, or achieve moksha. However, only a yogi has the ability to free themselves from the bonds of their karma. What about the average member of the human race?

The second reason for this is that you are obligated to provide or do seva with regard to the bhava in question and any living creature that is considered to be a member of mankind. In layman’s terms, the second type of karma is known as your punya karma, which refers to your good deeds in the here and now.

The consequence of that punya, which you will receive in your subsequent birth, is that only God knows what he has in store for you.

The concept of karma holds considerable significance in Vedic astrology. The prevailing belief posits that the activities undertaken in previous incarnations exert influence over an individual’s current circumstances and forthcoming experiences. In my capacity as an astrologer, I engage in the examination of planetary positions within a birth chart in order to acquire a deeper understanding of an individual’s karmic patterns.

Karma is a concept that pertains to the principle of causality, wherein each action is believed to produce corresponding outcomes. According to the principles of Vedic astrology, it is widely acknowledged that individuals bear the burden of prarabdha karma, denoting the segment of their previous life’s deeds that have matured and are presently exerting an impact on their current existence. The manifestation of prarabdha karma might encompass both favourable and unfavourable situations, contingent upon the inherent characteristics of our previous acts.

The arrangement of celestial bodies in a natal chart yields significant insights about an individual’s karmic inclinations. Every celestial body in our solar system symbolises distinct facets of human existence and possesses its own karmic implications. One illustrative instance involves the association of Saturn with karmic lessons and duties, juxtaposed with Jupiter’s representation of spiritual growth and insight.

Through an examination of the celestial arrangements and their interplay, one can discern the domains of existence in which an individual may encounter the repercussions of their prior deeds. The potential influence of karmic forces in various aspects of life, including as relationships, careers, health, or wealth, can be inferred from the relative strength or weakness of specific celestial bodies, namely planets.

It is noteworthy to acknowledge that Vedic astrology does not perceive karma as a punitive measure, but rather as a catalyst for personal development and advancement. Gaining insight into one’s karmic patterns can facilitate individuals in making deliberate decisions and implementing suitable measures to manage adversities and augment their spiritual progression.

In summary, the notion of karma in Vedic astrology underscores the intrinsic interdependence between our preceding, ongoing, and forthcoming circumstances. Through the examination of the planetary positions within a birth chart, I possess the ability to offer discerning observations of an individual’s karmic inclinations. This enables me to provide guidance that facilitates educated decision-making, ultimately fostering personal development and a sense of contentment.

It is imperative to acknowledge that karma should not be perceived solely as a mechanism of retribution and reward. Instead, it is a system that functions at a more profound level. Karma is widely regarded as a mechanism that facilitates individual development and spiritual advancement. Through the direct observation and understanding of the outcomes resulting from our activities, we are afforded the chance to acquire significant insights and cultivate enhanced levels of sagacity and empathy.

Moreover, the concept of karma transcends just individual deeds and encompasses the realm of thoughts and intentions as well. The generation of karmic energy can be attributed to the profound wants and motives that are within us. Consequently, the cultivation of a good mindset and the preservation of pure intentions are crucial for the generation of positive karma.

Although the notion of karma may appear intricate, its fundamental principle is straightforward: individuals bear accountability for their own actions and the resulting outcomes. It reminds us to be mindful of our choices and to strive for virtuous behaviour. Through this proactive approach, individuals have the ability to actively influence and mould their current and forthcoming conditions, so cultivating a life that is characterised by greater harmony and satisfaction.

The concept of karma holds substantial significance in Vedic astrology as it pertains to comprehending an individual’s life experiences and prospective outcomes. Karma pertains to the principle of causality, wherein our past deeds exert an influence on our current circumstances and mould our forthcoming experiences. Vedic astrology encompasses various forms of karma, each holding distinct significance.

In accordance with the precepts of astrology, Karma can be broken down into a number of subcategories, each of which I will briefly describe below before delving into in further detail in the following installment of this series.

For the sake of gaining a knowledge of the karmas, which are inextricably interwoven with Vedic astrology, I will merely provide a high-level overview here:

Dridha Karma refers to a category of karma that encompasses the predestined and unalterable actions that individuals have accrued from their previous incarnations. The phenomenon in question is commonly denoted as “fate” or “destiny.” The concept of “dridha karma” posits that certain aspects of an individual’s existence, including their birth family, physical appearance, and key life events, are predetermined and unchangeable.

Adridha karma, alternatively referred to as “modifiable karma,” pertains to the activities that are subject to modification or alteration within the context of our current lifetimes. In contrast to dridha karma, adridha karma affords individuals the capacity to exercise agency and alter the trajectory of their fate. The phenomenon is subject to the influence of our volitional agency and deliberate choices.

Kriyamana Karma, also known as current karma, pertains to the actions that are promptly executed in one’s present existence. The aforementioned activities are a manifestation of our capacity for autonomous decision-making and are likely to exert influence on our forthcoming encounters. Kriyamana karma is regarded as the collective result of both constructive and destructive actions in which individuals partake over the course of their lives.

Sanchit Karma refers to the collective accumulation of all activities, encompassing both positive and negative deeds, that an individual has amassed throughout successive incarnations. The concept can be understood as a reservoir of karma that exerts impact on both our present existence and subsequent rebirths. The concept of Sanchit karma posits that actions and their consequences are thought to persist across multiple lifetimes until they are adequately addressed or harmonised.

Prarabdha karma pertains to the segment of sanchit karma that is deliberately selected for manifestation during the present incarnation. The term “karma” refers to a subset of accumulated actions that have reached a state of maturation and are poised to emerge in the current incarnation. Prarabdha karma is responsible for determining the significant life events, obstacles, and prospects that individuals meet throughout their current existence.

Agami Karma pertains to the forthcoming outcomes that arise from our present activities. The concept of karma pertains to the accumulation of actions and their subsequent consequences, which individuals generate in their current existence and will encounter in subsequent rebirths. The concept of agami karma is believed to be influenced by the decisions and acts individuals make in the current moment, ultimately affecting their destiny in future incarnations.

Gaining a comprehensive comprehension of the various forms of karma within the realm of Vedic astrology offers profound insights into the intricate nature of human existence and the intricate dynamics between determinism and personal agency. While certain elements of human existence may be predestined, individuals possess the agency to exercise deliberate decision-making and actively influence their own futures by their choices and behaviours.
