Kitobni o'qish: «Karma's code»
Preface
Who among us hasn’t asked themselves questions like: why am I here, what is the meaning of life, what is my mission, and why do some people struggle with their personal lives? Vedic astrology, as well as Vedic numerology, can provide answers to these questions and help reveal what is hidden. With their help, one can understand what their purpose is, what hinders relationships with the opposite sex, and what causes problems with children and others. Vedic knowledge aids in solving these issues.
Part 1: Karma’s Code
The ancient astrologers of India created a unique system that can answer many questions that interest a person. Today, this system is known as Vedic or Indian astrology, but its true name is Jyotish. Jyotish shows that a person’s birth and all the events in their life are not accidental but are the result of their actions in the past, which represent their karma – destiny.
A Vedic horoscope allows one to trace specific events in a person’s life and understand why some events do not happen. It helps in understanding where one can best realize themselves, when they might marry, and how to assess their compatibility with a partner and their relationships with others.
Vedic numerology also helps in solving these questions. It allows one to determine a person’s karma based on their birth date. Vedic or Indian numerology is different from other numerological systems.
In Vedic astrology and numerology, nine planets are used, and each planet corresponds to one of the numbers from 1 to 9. To determine the karma a person carries in this life, it is enough to determine two numbers based on their birth date. The first number is called the Soul Number, and the second is the Destiny Number. The Soul Number represents what a person was born with, what they brought from a past life (both good and bad actions, as well as everything that happened to them). The Destiny Number represents the purpose for which they were born, what they must accomplish in this life, and what they must achieve by the end of it.
Let’s take the birth date 15.09.1991 as an example.
We add up the numbers of the birth day. Here it is 15.
1 + 5 = 6
Thus, we get the first number, the Soul Number. It is 6.
Now, let’s calculate the second number, the Destiny Number. For this, we add all the digits of the full birth date until we get a single digit.
1+5+0+9+1+9+9+1 = 35 = 3+5 = 8
So, the Destiny Number is 8.
The Soul Number strongly influences a person during the first half of life, approximately until 35 years of age. Then, its influence begins to weaken, and the influence of the second number, the Destiny Number, takes over. However, both numbers continue to influence throughout one’s life.
The Soul Number reveals how a person sees themselves and what they must struggle with. The Destiny Number reveals how others see them and what they must develop within themselves. Both numbers represent karmic tasks.
If a person does not grow or evolve, nothing changes in their life. Around the age of forty, one can observe changes in life. Everything depends on the level of soul development. This is individual for each person.
Characteristics and karmic tasks for those with a Soul Number or Destiny Number 1
The number 1 is governed by the Sun. The Sun is the most essential planet—it can give life, but it can also take it away if it burns too brightly. This is also true of people with the number 1. From now on, we will refer to such a person as a “one.” These people are often considered selfish, but they must not have a soft character. “Ones” must, first and foremost, think about themselves and their own development. If you are a “one” and those around you do not see you as selfish, it is likely that you are not fully expressing your qualities. You need to open up, constantly learn, and develop, but without destroying others. Your goals must be achieved in an honest way. The main task is to learn to subdue your ego and to avoid criticizing others, understanding that everyone is different.
Another karmic task is to learn independence, to not expect anything from others, to accept criticism, and to avoid seeking approval or demanding attention. Instead, you must become self-sufficient, understand yourself, and not expect others to understand you.
“Ones” cannot be led; they usually take leadership positions themselves. It is better not to argue with or instruct them. Leadership and masculine qualities are characteristic of the “one.” If such a person opens a business, it is better for them to run it alone. If they have a partner, each must remain independent. It is best not to make “ones” your enemies. They usually do not seek revenge but will simply stop communicating with you. If a “one” has low self-esteem from childhood, raising it becomes a karmic task. You should never pressure a “one,” as they will still do things their own way. A “one” must learn to give to others without expecting anything in return, like the Sun, which warms everyone with its rays.
It is also important to find one’s own individual path, without copying others. These people can live alone and not feel lonely, or they need to learn this if it is not the case. However, this does not mean that such a person will be alone. They may marry and have a large family.
If a person has 1 as their first number and a different number as the second, they must pave their way in life and fulfill their karmic tasks in the first half of life. If 1 is the second number, they will work on their ego in the second half of life. If both the Soul Number and Destiny Number are 1, then the person will have the same karmic tasks throughout their life and will most often need to rely only on themselves. If they have helpers, it is a great benefit. A person with two 1s will have very little softness in their character, but they will be able to provide well for their family.
Additional information for those born on the 10th of any month
Here we have a combination of the numbers 1 and 0. 1 represents consciousness, and 0 represents infinity. The qualities of the number 1 dominate in 10. 1 signifies luck, while 0 signifies misfortune. The unlucky 0 pushes a person toward struggle. New opportunities often appear as losses. By finding the right application for your strength, you will multiply it.
Additional information for those born on the 19th of any month
From the very beginning, these people are endowed with immense power. 1 represents the energy of the Sun, and 9 represents the masculine, aggressive energy of Mars. These people achieve success, but they often make enemies. This combination of numbers also brings problems in personal life. They need to learn to care for a loved one while leaving their ambitions aside. These people will achieve success, goals, and status and will overcome all obstacles in their path. It is important to avoid stressful situations and pay attention to their diet.
Additional information for those born on the 28th of any month
The number 28 combines the energies of the Moon (2) and Saturn (8). 2 represents emotionality, and 8 represents the number of struggles. Such a person will face difficulties and various obstacles on their path. However, because the sum of these numbers is 1, success will come under certain conditions, as the total number always has greater influence.
The story of one “one”
The girl in this story was born into a typical family: her father was an electrician, and her mother was a saleswoman. Let’s call her Viola. She dreamed of becoming a lawyer, but her parents insisted that she go to work immediately after finishing school. Viola obeyed because, since childhood, she had been accustomed to not contradicting her parents.
One day, a house caught fire on a neighboring street. People were confused, running back and forth, and did not immediately think to call the fire department. Viola knew that a seven-year-old girl might be in the house. She quickly ran toward the house, shouting for her neighbors to call the fire department on the way. She managed to carry the girl out of the burning house and organize the neighbors. When help arrived, the people did what they could to put out the fire. After this incident, Viola felt hidden strength within her. She informed her parents that she was going to apply to university. They could not stop her.
Characteristics and karmic tasks for those with a Soul Number or Destiny Number 2
The number 2 is governed by the Moon. The number 2 is the complete opposite of 1. The life of a “two” revolves around relationships. These people cannot be alone; they are emotional, sensitive, understanding of others, and empathetic. They work well in environments where there is cooperation, but they often lack focus.
Full moons have a significant impact on “twos,” more so than on other numbers. This causes doubts and mood swings. They often ask others for advice because they find it difficult to make decisions. Overcoming doubts and starting to take action is their karmic task.
“Twos” also often face challenges in their personal lives. Usually, they are very attractive and draw attention from the opposite sex, which can create difficult situations, including love triangles. Their karmic task is to determine who they want to be with. They should not compare their partner to others. Very often, “twos” will have at least two marriages. A man with a “two” is usually attractive and possesses some feminine qualities, such as sensitivity. The task for such a person is to find a balance between what their partner wants and what they themselves want.
A “two” will not feel bad if their partner makes decisions for them. They must not turn a blind eye to negative traits in their partner or themselves. They need to learn self-sufficiency, the ability to stand their ground, self-actualize, take responsibility for their own life, and learn practical skills while making independent decisions.
If a person has two 2s, meaning both their Soul Number and Destiny Number are 2, then their whole life will revolve around relationships. Their tasks will remain the same throughout life because they did not understand something in the first half of life (karma “knows” in advance that this will happen). This often results in two or more marriages, as well as complicated relationships in work, business, friendships, or with relatives.
For example, if your first number is 1 and the second is 2, you should focus on self-education and self-development in the first half of life and in the second half, devote more attention to your partner, children, friends, and learn emotional sensitivity and cooperation in the workplace. Conversely, if your first number is 2 and the second is 1, the reverse applies.
Additional information for those born on the 11th of any month
People born on the 11th are strongly influenced by the energy of the Sun. The two 1s reflect back on themselves, leading to self-centeredness and authoritarianism, as well as creative potential. There will be much mysticism in their life. People born on the 11th find it hard to forgive themselves for their mistakes. They must strive for spiritual development, learn to serve others, avoid wasting money, work on their ego without inflating it, and accept others as they are. Through spiritual growth, these people will achieve material success. They should develop sensitivity. Usually, they manage to achieve independence and meet their goals.
Additional information for those born on the 20th of any month
The energy of the Moon makes these people dependent. Those born on the 20th are very emotional and often experience disappointments in family life. They need to learn to make decisions.
Additional information for those born on the 29th of any month
The number 29 combines the energies of the Moon (2) and Mars (9). These people are caring but often act impulsively, frequently experiencing disappointment. They need to overcome their short temper. Cooperation is crucial for them. They must learn not to worry, not to divide everything into black and white, and not allow others to control them.
The story of one “two”
Once, while traveling in Europe, I met an elderly woman. She was traveling alone, and it wasn’t her first time. She was very talkative and shared some of her story with me. She had married very young. Her husband was much older than her and did practically all the housework. She knew very little, not even how to pay utility bills. When she turned 40, her husband suddenly passed away. Since then, she has lived alone and had to learn everything. Now she takes care of her home, her grandson, and her cat, and she travels abroad once a year, something she never did while her husband was alive.
Characteristics and Karmic Tasks for Those with Soul Number or Destiny Number 3
The number 3 is governed by Jupiter. In Vedic numerology, the number 3 is called “Guru” (teacher). In Vedic mythology, Guru was the teacher of the gods and a god himself. People with Soul Number 3 carry knowledge from past lives. They must learn and teach others.
Usually, they have a higher education. Their purpose is to pass on their knowledge to others. Among those with the number 3, there is a category of people who show the negative side of this number. These are individuals who, lacking sufficient knowledge in a particular matter, discuss, argue, and impose their opinions on others. They may also gossip and judge others. The “3” should not just reason but acquire knowledge, education, and engage in practical deeds if they have the abilities. Their task is to improve both their own life and the lives of others.
However, there are far more wise and experienced people among “threes” than the opposite. They must never rest on their laurels and should always keep learning. The number 3 holds a lot of potential. This isn’t always about spiritual knowledge; it can also refer to professions related to finance, architecture, and medicine. There are also those who did not formally study but are experts in a particular field. Some “threes” are fluent in several foreign languages. Usually, they are generous people who like to do things on a large scale, and it is important for them to live in prosperity and abundance. They believe in luck and are optimists. However, their optimism may sometimes hinder them from seeing reality, leading them to rely on higher powers rather than their own actions.
Some “threes” need to work on their ego, not fear learning from others, and understand that someone might know more than they do in a particular field. One of the karmic tasks is to learn patience and not abandon projects halfway through.
“Threes” know how to work well and rest well. They must avoid engaging in illegal activities or doing anything against karma. If they follow these principles, they will receive protection from higher powers. If they think they control everything and don’t believe in higher powers, karma will set them straight.
An important karmic task is to learn not to criticize, to accept different cultures and opinions, and not to divide people by race and nationality.
The number 3 is also associated with everything related to foreign countries.
“Threes” are usually family-oriented people, not prone to infidelity, but they may dedicate too much time to their work and personal affairs, which can strain their married life. This is why they sometimes experience two marriages. It is important not to forget about their partner.
Additional Information for Those Born on the 12th of Any Month
1 represents the energy of the Sun, and 2 represents the energy of the Moon. This combination looks harmonious, but the 1 gives a thirst for fame and being in the spotlight, while the 2 adds worry that the person creates for themselves. The total of these numbers is 3 (Jupiter), which brings luck and a desire to teach others.
These people dislike disappointing others, find it hard to say no to requests, are caring, and may face difficulties in relationships. It is important for them to learn to finish what they start and to take pleasure in any achievement.
Such people can be unpredictable, and their loved ones often don’t know what to expect from them. They love to be praised and are generally wealthy and successful.
Additional Information for Those Born on the 21st of Any Month
The number 2 here gives tenderness, and the 1 gives potential for success in life. These people are more social than other “threes.” In this combination, the 1 helps the 2. If these people develop a little more patience, they will become even more fortunate and achieve much in life.
If you were born on the 21st, you may have pivotal moments in your life where everything is at stake. Your task is to show decisiveness and perseverance.
Additional Information for Those Born on the 30th of Any Month
Because of the zero, this number is less fortunate than 3. The zero slows their progress and reduces the number of friends. However, through hard work, they can achieve comfort and a sufficient amount of money. Those born on the 30th are sociable and ready to help. Their lives are greatly influenced by people of the opposite sex.
The Story of a “Three”
Dan graduated from medical school and worked as a general practitioner at a clinic. He only believed in medicine, and when patients mentioned psychics and healers, he would frown in displeasure.
One day, a new nurse joined the clinic. It was a busy day with many patients, and the appointments finished late. At the end of the workday, Dan experienced a severe headache and complained to the nurse. She said she could relieve the pain with her hands and offered her help. Dan said he didn’t believe in it but accepted her offer. He had to admit that her manipulations with her hands helped. Later, he thought it was just a coincidence.
Some time later, Dan went to a sanatorium. He hadn’t been feeling well lately, as exhaustion had taken its toll. His wife couldn’t accompany him due to work, so they decided he would go alone. At the sanatorium, he became friends with a fellow doctor, an ophthalmologist. One day, his new friend invited Dan to visit a local fortune teller. Dan laughed for a long time but agreed to keep his friend company. He waited in the hallway for the session to end when suddenly the door opened, and his friend came out with the fortune teller. She gave Dan a piercing look and said, “You’re on the verge of a new love.” Naturally, Dan didn’t take this seriously. He had been married for a long time and thought his marriage was fine. But imagine his surprise when his wife announced she wanted a divorce. And the new love turned out to be the same nurse from the clinic who had so easily relieved his headache.
Needless to say, after these events, Dan believed in many things. He became interested in alternative medicine and esotericism.
Characteristics and Karmic Tasks for Those with a Soul Number or Destiny Number 4
4 (planet Rahu) is a mystical number, just like 7 (Ketu). In Vedic mythology, Rahu is the head of a demon, while Ketu is its body. Rahu and Ketu are shadow planets; they cannot be seen, and they seemingly do not exist, unlike other planets. They are lunar karmic nodes, the northern and southern nodes.
“Fours” often fall into extremes. The planet Rahu, which governs “four,” moves counterclockwise. Likewise, people with the number four do everything in an original way and do not like to follow accepted norms.
In a positive sense, this person is an intellectual. They are close to anything related to numbers and computers, have a good memory, meaning they are suited for work that requires thinking. They are very down-to-earth people who should develop their spirituality. They may not believe in anything spiritual, and they are often difficult to understand; sometimes, it’s hard to know what to expect from them.
“Fours” may think too much, which does not lead to anything good. Rahu creates an illusion; it is karmic smoke that obscures the truth. Therefore, these individuals must engage in various practices, control their thoughts, and not allow their thoughts to control them. If they do not work on themselves, their desires will guide them. They will strive to obtain something at any cost, but the pleasure derived from it will be short-lived. Sensual pleasure cannot bring them true satisfaction (they will always want more) because they “only have a head” (4) but “no body” (7).
“Fours” can earn well. If they do not engage their mind, various fears may arise. They may develop different addictions (alcohol, drugs, sexual, and others). These individuals may completely abstain from sex or, conversely, frequently change partners; they cannot enjoy one partner for long, as they always want more.
They must learn to notice how karma plays with them. Some may engage in crime. Since they need to get what they want by any means necessary, they may deceive and “step over others.” They think they will not face consequences for this (a path linked with illusion). After all, Rahu represents illusion.
There are also very spiritual “fours” who study esoteric practices. In such cases, they successfully combine practicality and spirituality.
“Fours” can be very diverse. There is also a tough, aggressive type with sadistic tendencies. They may become aggressive when they do not get what they want. The main downside here is insensitivity, self-centeredness; they only do what benefits them.
They often struggle with fears and addictions. However, there are times when a “four” is accompanied by a dependent person (an alcoholic, a drug addict). In that case, the “four” may be under the illusion that this person will change or that they can change them. Thus, a “four” may spend their entire life with someone who abuses them or is addicted to alcohol or drugs.
There are “fours” with the ability to significantly develop their intuition. In any case, they should have a good income. If they aspire to politics or a social life, they will quickly understand the illusion hidden behind all of this. It is Rahu’s task to show that everything may only appear to be very good.
If a person has a second number 4, then in the second half of life, they need to ensure their financial well-being without being at the mercy of endless desires. Two fours (both the Soul Number and Destiny Number being 4) can make a person somewhat fanatical.
Additional Information for Those Born on the 13th of Any Month
Here, 1 represents the energy of the Sun, and 3 represents the energy of Jupiter. These individuals often experience rapid rises and falls. Friends are not always loyal to them, and those born on the 13th are willing to go to great lengths for their friends. Such people can be very impulsive.
The number 13 is usually considered unfavorable; one must go through many trials. However, these individuals possess immense inner strength and can achieve a lot. Women born on the 13th are very passionate. Everyone born on the 13th should avoid gloom and pessimism.
Additional Information for Those Born on the 22nd of Any Month
This number is considered mystical. Such individuals have developed intuition, are vulnerable, and may struggle to build relationships with others, often facing health problems. This number can lead to a negative karma of loneliness for women. They need to work hard on their character, addressing stubbornness and anxiety. These individuals must work very hard to achieve anything. They may engage in occult sciences. It is important for them to learn to relax their minds (through meditation, yoga).
Additional Information for Those Born on the 31st of Any Month
These are very strong individuals internally. They are often difficult to deal with. Unforeseen situations can bring them problems and losses. They need to be very careful and attentive. Those born on the 31st possess leadership qualities, always want to be first, may give orders to others, pursue a career in politics, protect the weak, and can also be excessively withdrawn, easily fall into anger, and misinterpret the words of others. Despite all this, they know how to resolve complex situations. Such individuals are individualists and often experience misunderstandings in relationships with the opposite sex. However, it is more likely that their partner suffers in this situation. They must learn not to impose on others.
