Tithi and its importance

Indian sages discovered Thithi, in course of observation heavenly bodies especially the Sun and Moon, which is formed with reference to the longitudinal difference between the Moon and the Sun while they transit the zodiacal signs. Let the starting point be the day of conjunction between Moon and the Sun, according to the sages, always at the first point of Aries to explain everything of the Tithi. To cover the full zodiac of 360 degrees by Moon makes thirty thithis. Certainly the moon rotates faster than the sun. During the new Moon and full Moon days there are ebb tides in the ocean/sea waters.

Calculation Of Tithi:

On new moon day or Amavasya, Sun and Moon are conjunct and when they are 180 degrees apart from each other it is the full moon day or Poornima. First Tithi or the Prathama is formed when the Moon and the Sun are at a difference of 12 degrees from each other, which is most important from the gravitational point of view. The extent of the gravitational attraction between the two luminaries on earth’s natural components like water of the river, sea etc. is minimum.  A table containing thithis is given here under for ready reference.

Importance

A. Medical Astrology:

When Moon is away at a distance of 84 degrees to 96 degrees from Sun it is Ashtami. On that day minimum tide takes place in ocean. It is Neap tide by name when the gravitational pull is the least. It is because of this fact that mothers suffer minimum loss of fluids during child birth (even if it is caesarian operation) if other factors are normal. (The Bhrigu seers selected link between the Jupiter and the Moon during the moment of caesarian section of the child birth in their birth designer manipulation to harvest maximum beneficial rays into the body cells of the child). Of all the Tithis, Indian sages declare that Ashtami to be the most auspicious day if other factors are normal. Again if starting point of conjunction of the luminaries is the first point of Aries (New moon day), Moon touches the pushya or the constellations of Cancer sign in the bright half on the eighth lunar day. Our seers observed the very constellations to be most auspicious. It is the sign of exaltation for Jupiter. Cancer sign is the Royal palace owned by Moon, the queen and creative factor, mother. Pushyami, the 8^th star counting from Ashwini (1^st star in Aries), the beginning of the kalpurush’s Journey at 0° point of Aries.  The combination when the Sun is in Aries Sign at the degree where its navamsha lord is Pushyami (Saturn) and Moon stays in the Pushyami star is considered most auspicious.

So, Indian medical Astrologers call the Astami Tithi combined with Pushyami star to be healer of the diseases. That is why healer plants of many incurable diseases linked with negative Saturn, especially, are uprooted by the health Tantrik Physicians on the Astami Tithi day when the Moon touches the Pushyami star, preferably on Saturday. They select western parts (root, stem, leaves etc.). Professor B. P. Khambay the scientist of the prestigious IACR. Rothamsted England, whose patron is Her Majesty the Queen, opines that chemicals in the plant sap constantly change their nature and properties during their growth and development period. Researchers should look into the practice of the Tantriks. Further Bhrigus claim this auspicious star to be the future hope of mankind where the counter part of our universe lies.

B. Exalted sign of Jupiter:- on the basis of the information as referred above, the geometrical positions of the two luminaries due to their gravitational properties influence sea water and the human blood which is more or less equivalent to sea water’s chemical composition. The electromagnetic energy emanating from the star field of this part of zodiac is the exaltation house of Jupiter. Astrologically, he is the conferrer of life and evolver of intelligence, the 3^rd sign of the kapurush or the Natural zodiac point, the birth place of intelligence. Therefore, education of the highest order is judged both form the 4^th house and Jupiter. Consciousness and signs of discretion are causative factors of both of them. It is the mile stone for selection of the cancer, the Jeeva i. e bestower of life of this planet as claimed by astrology. However, with the dawn of the 21^st century, scientists confirm inference of Indian sages. John Noble Will ford on June 14, 2002 reported in the New York Times New service thus:

“Astrophysicists consider Jupiter the Keystone of the solar system its location and gravitational power acting on a protective shield that presumably enabled life to take root and flourish on earth. Jupiter deflected the heaviest asteroid bombardment away from inner solar system particularly to the habitable zone, where conditions were most suitable for life”.

Also, some astronomers have been trying to locate the satellite of Jupiter. According to them the satellite has a perfectly suitable environmental climate for the sustenance of the life forms of our globe.

The science of week days:-

Once upon a time, Health Tantrik astrologers in collaboration with the disciples of Maha Rishi Bhrigu schools of thought realized from experience that diseases caused by negative Saturn alone or with Rahu or the Northern lunar Node are cured by western root, stem or leaf parts of he desired plants if they are uprooted and taken at an interval of 7 days. They name the particular day as Shanivar (Saturday) in Sanskrit (linked with the name of Saturn). Confirmation of the very observations appeared just before the dawn of 21^st century when the scientists of the western world including professor B. P. Khambay, eminent chemist of IACR Roth Amsted, England, Professor Vlietence of the University of Antwerp first found the broad spectrum antinematicidal property of Typhonium tricoatum, a herb harvested from the western portion on Saturday sent to him by the author,  later on to buyer Leverkussan, Germany and to the scientist of Rothamsted, the author’s core searcher.

All of them reported that the bulb powder kills all sorts of Nematodes- plants and animals including the dangerous tape worms. As the very plant does not contain steroid and other compounds toxic for human food Miss Martina Navratilova and Mr. Leander paes, the world famous Tennis players included the Typhonium food daily in their salad meals. (Of course the Bhrigus include the Typhonium plant in Saturn and Lunar node Group). Similarly, after observations on typical use of various healer plants uprooted on particular days to cure diseases caused by negative planets, astrologers arrange in order of particular planetary influence on a day of week and select nomenclature accordingly as (1) Sunday for Sun (2) Monday for moon (3) Tuesday for mars (4) Wednesday for Mercury (5) Thursday for Jupiter (6) Friday for Venus (7) Saturday for Saturn. The names are derived from the Latin language. The Sankrit language planetary names are Ravi. Som, Mangal, Budh, Brihaspati, Sukra, and Shani.

[Science: – as the two signs, Aquarius and Capricorn owned by Saturn, the dark planet due to his encircled rings are the darkest regions of the zodiac, their opposition signs Leo and cancer are allotted to the sun and the Moon- the Royal couple placed side by side on the throne. Astronomically Mars, Jupiter and Saturn are outer planets i. e. outside the Sun and Earth. Mars is nearest to the Sun. Next is Jupiter followed by Saturn –the farthest one. Mercury closest to the Sun and next to it, Venus are inner planets, present in between the Sun and Earth. Our sages observed that alternate planets, one from the outer and other from the inner fit into week days series in accordance with the distance theory as proved when allotment of different divisions of the zodiac were provided. To explain briefly after Sunday and Monday (the Sun –Moon Royal couple), the nearest to the Sun is Mars among the outer planets, so it is (Mars day) Tuesday. Next, nearest to the Sun of the inner planets is Mercury. Next is the chance for the outer or superior planet, Jupiter (Thursday), inner planet Venus (Friday) followed by Saturn. Thus the distance theory takes active part for the Sun and the earth’s satellite].

The Moola Trikona on the first root triad.

 Introduction;- in astrology  Moola trikona or the first root triad planets are more important than planets posited on their own signs, actually next to exalted planets. Barah, the great scholar of ancient India claims that the naturally benefic planets placed at 3,6,10 and 11^th signs from the ascendant produce Vasumati yoga which never fails so far as the predictions are concerned.

Science of the Moola trikona planets (a) Mathematics of formation: in previous discussions it was reported that Moola or the 19^th star is most prominently placed on the brightest region of the zodiac whose 2* longitudinal degree is most important as proved by the international conference held in Moscow in 1958. From the starter point of Moola star when a Royal triad comprising Sagittrus. Aries and Leo signs and Upachayas comprising Aquarius, Taurus, Virgo, and Libra are formed.

The 3, 6,10 & 11^th signs from Moola star then the Moolatrikona planets are established “Aquarius for Saturn, Taurus for Moon, Virgo for Mercury, Libra for Venus   on the one side and on the great triangle side i.e. Aries for Mars, Leo for the Sun  and Sagittarius for Jupiter.
