Saturn-Rahu Conjunction: Karma Under the Amplifier

Saturn-Rahu arrives at a consulting table already named. The tradition calls this pairing Shrapit, the cursed combination, and the word has done a century of damage before any chart gets read, because a person told they carry a curse stops listening to everything after the noun. So this guide states its division of labour in … Read more

Rahu-Ketu Conjunction: The One That Cannot Exist

Every other page in this series describes a meeting. This one describes the meeting that cannot happen, has never happened, and will never happen in any chart cast for any birth in any century: Rahu and Ketu do not conjunct.

Moon-Mercury Conjunction: The Heart’s Scribe

Moon-Mercury carries the tenderest wound in the friendship tables, and the mythology explains it as family, because it is. The Moon counts Mercury a friend; Mercury counts the Moon his one and only enemy; and the story behind the asymmetry is the same scandal the two-advisors page told from the stepfather’s house, here told from … Read more

Sun-Venus Conjunction: The Face and the Garden

Sun-Venus is the star-quality pairing, the charisma-conjunction of the thirty-six, presence fused to polish, the entrance-constitution behind a disproportionate share of the faces the world agrees to look at, and underneath the shine sits the series’ most elegant hostility: the tables file these two as full mutual enemies, the Sun listing Venus and Venus listing … Read more
