    Punarvasu - the Vedic Constellation of unity, harmony, cooperation, self-replication, and self-invention. Learn how all these qualities come from the goddess of this constellation, Aditi - the very fabric of reality, mother of God and gods, mother of her own father, source of her own creation. The image of Aditi, known commonly as “Lajja Gauri” shows her as the source of Brahmā (since she has Brahmā’s lotus as her head) and the mother of everything (since she is shown in the birthing position). Aditi is one of the many aspects of Vedic culture that destroys any misconception of it being male-centric or patriarchal. Aditi is the fountainhead of all śakti. Devotees of The Mother often equate all of her manifestations with one another. Thus Durgā or Parvatī are often depicted in Aditi’s role as the mother of all the gods, including even Brahmā, Viṣnu, and Śiva!

    What if a bad planet is exalted or in its own sign - is it a good or bad thing? In synastry what do we consider to be a conjunction, opposition, trine, and so on? Is it by degree or by sign or both? Where does the first house start? I’ve heard that the first house is considered 15 degrees before and after the ascendant. If my ascendant is 27º Gemini and my Moon is 1º Gemini... is my moon in 1st house or 12th house? Birth Certificates are often a few minutes off… How important is accurate birthtime? What are “muhurtas”? If, for example, the birth chart describes marriage as a positive or negative thing for a person, how much difference would a muhurta make?
