Mithuna (Gemini) Personality Traits

Mithuna is an air sign ruled by the planet Mercury.  Being the third sign of the zodiac, Mithuna is connected symbolically to the third house of Vedic Astrology, which is a Kama house (Read: The Four Aims of Life The Purusharthas).  Kama houses are 3, 7, and 11th house.  These are the desire houses.  Thus, Mithuna has an intense desire nature. Mithuna is flirtatious, loving, relational, easy-going, and sensuous.  However, they can be fickle in relationships because they can get bored very quickly.  But they do not just get bored in relationships; they quickly get bored with pretty much everything. Mithuna need A LOT of mental stimulation to keep them interested, and this also goes without saying in relationships.
Mithuna are always processing information.  They need to be working on several different projects at once to be mentally satisfied.  They need several irons in the fire in order to fight boredom.  However, sometimes they may have too many irons in the fire, more than they can handle and things can get out of hand for a Mithuna.  They may start ten projects at once and finish none.  To complete a project they have started, they need to take breaks in between.  It is a good idea for a Mithuna to start a project, then go to another project and take turns working on different projects.  Then they can come back to the first project with renewed energy and pick up from where they left off to be able to finish it.  If they do this, then they can fight off the boredom.  This is because it is difficult for a Mithuna to work on only one project for an extended period.  It is a significant challenge for them to stay focused for so long without getting impatient and moving on to something else.  So they can be very restless, scattered and ungrounded at times.  This ungroundedness can be overcome by an aspect of Saturn on Mercury, the Moon, the Lagna or Lagna lord.  Doing grounding exercises is also very beneficial and entirely necessary for this mental sign.
Mithuna is the sign of communication and information.  They are very quick to learn new information and have very diverse interests.  They are very good at imitating and synthesizing information.  They can quickly reproduce anything they have read or heard, which makes them appear to be experts at new subjects for which they have very superficial knowledge. Mithuna needs constant stimulation and is always very curious about diverse topics.  They can begin learning a matter so quickly that they suddenly lose interest and go to another subject before really mastering the first.  The prefer the excitement of new experiences rather than the drudgery of sticking to the same topic, which can get tedious at times.  A Mithuna will try to avoid this at all costs.
Mithunas do not like being tied down to anything, they like their freedom and independence, and sticking through the drudgery of mastering one single subject makes them feel tied down and even confined as though imprisoned.  Feeling confined can cause the Mithuna person get depressed, so it is healthier for Mithunas to work on different projects at the same time to avoid this.
Mithunas are quick-witted, funny, restless, charming, and easy-going.  They can be great manipulators because sometimes they are too smart for their good.  The strength of the fourth and ninth house will determine if they will be carried away with manipulating others for their base desires, or if they will uphold their virtues.
Communication is vital for Mithunas, and this is a must if they are to remain happy in a relationship.  Their closest friends are the ones they can hold a conversation with for hours at a time.  They love to talk about everything, and sometimes they have so many ideas to talk about coming at them from left and right that they get overwhelmed and are never able to finish the moral of the story before moving on to the next subject.  They may get frustrated with a fire or water sign person who just acts out of passion or emotion without analyzing and talking about the situation first.
Because Mithunas are very intellectual, they can adapt to pretty much any career.  They have an eclectic and flexible mentality.  Therefore, the rest of the chart will determine what job they end up choosing.  The stronger of the Moon, Sun or Lagna sign will determine what career they eventually decide to pursue.
If you decide to date a Mithuna, make sure that you are a good listener and that you communicate A LOT with them. Otherwise, they will quickly get bored or irritated with you for lack of connection and rapidly move on to someone else.

Yogi, Avayogi - Prosperity and Obstruction

What exactly are the planets which are called "Yogi, Avayogi, and Duplicate Yogi?" In Vedic Astrology these are actually very important planets you should know about. Without knowing this, you miss out on very important and accurate predictions in your readings.  So let's get to the core of the matter right away. These are their definitions: Yogi: This is the planet which gives rise to prosperity in the best way it can. Avayogi: This is the planet which obstructs prosperity in the best way it can. Duplicate Yogi: This is the planet which supports prosperity, although to a lesser degree than the Yogi. Now that you know what these planets represent, how to analyze them in your chart? The easiest way to begin is to see what Dasa/Bhukti you are running. Are you running the Dasa or Bhukti of either the Yogi, Avayogi, or Duplicate Yogi? That is the most direct way. If you are not running the Dasa or Bhukti, check to see if the Dasa/Bh...

Mesha (Aries) Personality Traits

Mesha is a fire sign ruled by the planet Mars. It is the first sign of the zodiac, which is symbolically related to the first house of Vedic Astrology, a Dharma house (Read The Four Aims of Life: The Purusharthas).  Thus, just like the other Dharma houses and signs, Mesha people feel they have a strong sense of purpose to fulfill in life. People with this sign strong in their charts will have a strong sense of self and individuality. They will want to be first in everything they do, so they tend to be very competitive. They have a lot of energy, strength, will-power, and strong desires. Mesha people love action and have a strong desire to help others less fortunate.  They like to have a story in life and be the hero of that story, and one of the ways of doing this is through fighting for the underdog.  Mesha loves getting involved in causes and helping the oppressed in one way or another.  This involvement is their noble way of coming to the rescue and being chi...

How are Divisional Charts Used in Vedic Astrology? Jackie Kennedy's Chart

There is a lot of contradiction on how divisional charts are used in Jyotish.  Some astrologers only look at the sign a planet is placed in.  They then look at the lord of that sign and see if it is strong or weak in the Rasi chart.  However, they claim that Yogas and Aspects are not to be used in divisional charts. This is one section that I strongly disagree with.  And I abide by my teacher, James Kelleher, in the way he uses divisional charts. A divisional chart should be read exactly like a birth chart, but in relation to the particular chart you are looking at.  So if you are looking a the Navamsha, it stands for spouse.  If you are looking at the D-7 chart, it stands for children.  If you are looking at the D-10 chart it stands for career.  So the particular Yoga in the chart will focus in on only that area of your life. Let us take an example at why we analyze a divisional chart just as we analyze a Rasi chart, including Yogas and asp...
