Here is a astrological story I have read recently(again forgot the source) which I thought my fellow learners will find interesting:

Ravana who was a great tapasvi, had full control of all planets.  When his son Indrajith was about to born, he ordered all the planets to be placed in the 11th house of his son(house of victory) so that Indrajith never faces defeat.  Dismayed by this, Devas approached Shaniswara to do something to avert this situation because if Indrajith, the Asura becomes undefeatable he will wreak havoc.  So, at the critical moment of birth, Shaniswara who was placed in 11th House extends his leg into 12th House.  Ravana comes to know of this after calculating Indrajith's Horoscope(Ravana was an expert in many vidyas).  Angered by this act, he breaks Shaniswara's legs resulting in his lameness(slow results, obstacles).

Dear vivek ji and rahul ji,

could you please tell about the graha vahanas and its significance

priyesh

Namaskaar Priyesh ji,
Right now we dont have much to share on this. In the future we will surely try to dig up something on the vaahana of the Grahas. There are difference of opinion on many Graha vaahans.
In the kaala Chakra you can find the vaahans of deities associated with the grahas.

RishiRahul and vivek.

Respected,

I could not co-relate between age and maturation of graha. My understanding is e.g. surya age 50 years means he will live upto 50 years and maturation means he will attain puberty at 22 years. Is it right? How about Shukra then?

Thanks

Namaskaar volcanopetal ji,
It is not that way.
Surya's appearance is said to be like that of a fifty year old man. You must be aware that the Grahas have been personified in Jyotish.
Secondly it is used in different ways.
For example if Surya is showing the thief in a Prashna chart then we can estimate the age of the thief to of around fifty (middle aged).
An expert in Prashna can corelate people around him during the prashna process and use them to confirm his readings.

The maturation age on the other hand is used for timing events.
If you are aware of the bogey called Mangal dosha (Kuja dosha), then a person having this dosha in his chart is advised to marry after 28 years of age. As then mangal Dosha is said to become inoperative.

Both thew age given and the maturation age have different usages.

Rishirahul and vivek.
