The Age of Truth (Satya Yuga)
The year 2006 marks the transition period between this current Age of Suffering (Kali Yuga) and the Age of Truth (Satya Yuga).
Everything in our solar system is governed by the planets. Besides the planets, there are 27 (birth) stars in Vedic Astrology. They can help a lot to predict the future. Two days ago I was conversing with one of the topmost astrologers in India who is being sought after by celebrities in business and politics. He made a statement that "rang a bell" in my heart. Astrology is called "Jyotish" in Sanskrit. "Jyothi" means Light. Astrology is called light because it shows the way to a person who does not know about his future and is groping in darkness. In other words, astrology is like a lighthouse for a boat lost at sea.
Life is full of mystery. No one knows what is going to happen to him/her in the near future or the distant future. The mind can know only certain things. There are arenas loaded with unknowable reality.
You should understand the difference between the unknown and unknowable realities. What was once not known is known now. What is unknown today will be known some time in the future. However, the unknowable will remain unknown forever for the human mind. The unknowable belongs to the divine realm. You have to have unknowingness in order to know the unknowable.
Vedic astrology can help somewhat - not fully though. Based on the position of Mars, Saturn and Jupiter, it is predicted in the ancient Hindu tradition that there will be a wide-spread disaster across India. There will be calamities of different sorts: earthquake, fire, tornados, flood, terrorist attacks, diseases, war, etc. One third of India will undergo intense suffering. The disaster however is not confined to India alone. It will shake the entire world. It will appear as though it is the end time.
Mars in Aries, Saturn in Cancer, and Jupiter in Libra is the worst combination. There is a great deal of rivalry between Mars and Saturn to destroy the world. Mars has been sitting in Aries for nearly 5 months. He moves out of Aries on February 5, 2006. Major devastations are likely to occur before February 5th.
Not that February 5th is the end of the bad things that are to happen. Disasters will continue to happen until 2012, which is the beginning of the Age of Truth. By 2012 the photon light that comes out of the conjunction of the Sun, the Earth and the star Alcyone will transform the entire earth plane. By this time, people will become spontaneously good and happy. Evil, negativity and diseases- all will be under control. Some evolved human beings will turn their bodies into light and leave the earth plane. It is a heart-warming thing to know that there will be something for everyone across the board.
Between now and 2012 we will witness a lot of happenings that will spiritualize the world. There will be more understanding between races and religions. Jews will love the Muslims, and the Muslims will love the Hindus. Love will rule the world. This will be the nature of the Satya Yuga. I am very happy to welcome this Satya Yuga, but at the same time I am pained by the suffering that the world has to go through before the major change.
The stars Arudra, Ashlesha and Magha will do the major devastations. Punarvasu and Pushya will also usher in destruction.
Arudra
Symbol: teardrop, diamond, a human head
Deity: Rudra the storm god, "the howler" and god of destruction, another form of Shiva.
Ashlesha
Symbol: serpent, a curled-up or coiled snake Deity: Sarpas, or the Nagas, deified snakes Mythology: The serpent is the symbol of great wisdom, found in the occult sciences such as astrology or psychology. The snake has been referred to as the kundalini energy that rises through the spine in bringing spiritual enlightenment and magical powers.
(rules January 15th, 2006)
Magha
Symbol: royal throne Deity: Pitris, family ancestors, "The Fathers" Mythology: This is the constellation believed to be where our ancestors dwell and await their opportunity to reincarnate back with their families on earth.
(rules January 16th, 2006)
Punarvasu
Symbol: bow and quiver (case that contains the arrows) Deity: Aditi, the mother of the gods, she is boundless, vast and limitless, goddess of abundance
Stars: Castor and Pollux the Gemini twins. Castor was the mortal twin known for his skill in horsemanship. Pollux the immortal twin is known for his skill in boxing.

Pushya

Shiva made Brihaspati into the planet Jupiter. Brihaspati had his wife Tara stolen by Soma, and she bore a child from this affair (Buddha). Brihaspati was taken by the charm of this child and raised it as his own.
