Understanding Birth chart/Kundli through the simple language of electricity

The world is beginning to agree that we all are sitting in a simulated environment. Vedic sciences and scriptures called it as Maya which has been termed as illusion in contemporary language. However the fact is that Maya is real and has been created for the souls to experience life in different physical forms in different environments. That is why Vedas called this Maya as part of the Cosmic Leela (a cosmic game) which is nothing but literally the internet of the higher world into which the souls enter at different points of space and time to go through different experiences and slowly and gradually evolve. Thus, this Maya is nothing but the Universe which is also evolving as the souls entering it are evolving themselves and this web of Maya. Thus every point in space and time carries a different energy and birth of a person or an event represents the energy of that point at that very moment and also how different energies at the point will move in different directions with respect to that. This is what Astrology is all about.

While my previous blogs and books capture that how an Astrological chart is created and can be read, this blog is purely to explain a birth chart in an engineer’s language by using simple language of an electrical circuit. For those are who are new to Astrology, please be informed that there are:-

(a) Nine planets used by Vedic Astrology which depict different energies

(b) Twelve zodiacs which again represent different energies and

(c) Twelve houses that depict different aspects of life with the first house representing beginning of life from a single cell. It also depicts brain, self etc (check the figure below for more details).

The placement of different planets and zodiacs in different houses represent different energies connected to the specific houses thereby providing a specific constitution to the person and thus future.

Understanding Birth Chart in the language of electricity

While there are several ways to understand the energies of different planets and zodiacs (that i have discussed in the book and blogs), one of the interesting and easy way (which can further widen our horizon to understand Astrology) is to understand them by using simple principles of electricity which is explained as under.

A birth chart (Kundli in Vedic/Sanskrit language) can be visualized as a circuit (divided in twelve parts) and different parts of this circuit are further connected to other circuits and so on which can be called as divisional charts. So, Sun is the source of power/electricity/pitta/information to this circuit. Mars represents wattage i.e. the speed (voltage) and amount (amperes) of electricity/information. Stronger the Mars (high wattage due to good voltage and good current), higher is the usage of power from Sun (which is why Sun exults in first zodiac of Mars). Saturn represents resistance in the circuit which slows down flow of electricity/Pitta/prana and if high Pitta is pushed through it, it burns like a filament of bulb and then fuses it.

That is why Sun and Saturn if high create issues in the body and burn it. This is also the reason that high voltage of Mars gets controlled by high resistance i.e. Saturn. Moon is that place in the circuit which represents relatively colder area due to presence of fluids which work as coolant (the lymph and blood). The coolant cools down Sun’s heat/electricity thereby increasing a bit of more tissues (muscles, fats etc) too though maximum is lymph and blood there. Thus fluid here cools down heat of Sun, thereby giving feeling of relaxation in case Sun is strong.

On the other hand, if Sun is weak (due to strong resistance i.e. Saturn), then Moon may cause depression due to further cooling down of heat/power. The cold portion of the circuit also provides relief from Sun’s/father’s heat/discipline (whenever in excess) thereby working as a coolant (motherly love/pamper) which is why it may push the native to spend more time in this area. Mercury represents that part of circuit where there is optimum resistance (not as high as Saturn) which slows current and creates new circuits and glows like a bulb without fusing because of presence of good width of cable (kapha) there. Soit’s literally like a bulb/idea/concept glowing in mind. Jupiter represents that part where wire is solid/thick/expanded and therefore relays decent amount of electricity not as high as Mercury (high wattage with optimum voltage and current) thereby retaining/storing/flowing more prana/information through this area. If good amount of blood and lymph keep nourishing this area, then Jupiter’s strength doesn’t deplete nor it overburns or over-accumulates Kapha as Moon is not high on Kapha. That is why Jupiter exults in Moon’s zodiac.

Venus represents area where resistance is very less and electrons are easily excited and available in abundance (like in the case of a high heat superconductors), thereby communicating/relaying/furthering and using all the previously stored info in the entire circuit. It is a fact the higher the density of the metal, better is its conductivity. Thus Venus represents higher density where Saturn represents less density with more of air/vacuum. That is why Saturn (resistance) gets nullified in Venus’s zodiac (super conduction) thereby exulting Saturn. On the other hand, Rahu in Rahu-ketu axis represents lighter circuit which gradually becomes denser towards Ketu and densest at Ketu. Rahu ketu axis also represents inductance and capacitance respectively which stores and releases with force and then stores and releases and so on. Capacitor is an electrical gadget which stores and releases energy in bursts. That is why Ketu’s capacitance holds and suddenly releases stuck up emotions/thoughts/concepts/principles, when pushed by high inductance of Rahu. And last but not the least, Lagna represents that point of the circuit where the soul enters the body. Since it is beginning point for the soul, the zodiac present in Lagna represents the energy of self and that is how the entire length of the circuit is divided into 12 parts/houses. It is worth mentioning that while the effect of a specific zodiac and planet posted in it, will be felt closest to the place of its existence, it will also have overall effect on the entire circuit.

The placement of different planets in different houses can be visualized as follows. If Sun is present in first house, it means Sadhak Pitta is highest in brain. But if it is present in let’s say 6^th house, then Sadhak Pitta will reduce by the time it reaches brain. However, if Sun is present in its own i.e.Leo zodiac, then it would mean that the person will have overall strong Sadhak Pitta flowing through the entire circuit even if the Sun is placed in 6^th house though it will relatively mellow down while reaching first house or houses farther from 6th. In other words, zodiac plays a huge role where the planet is posted. If Saturn is present right after Sun, then it means that it will reduce the speed of electricity in the entire circuit. Same goes if Sun is present in Saturn’s zodiac especially MT sign. However if Saturn appears later, then Sun’s effect on initial houses/planets will be more than after Saturn’s presence. The presence of a planet in a specific house represents that its effect on that house will be highest in aspect related to that house. During mahadasha, the entire circuit becomes high on that energy. So during Saturn’s Mahadasha, the entire circuit will go high on resistance, whereas during Sun’s, sadhak Pitta/energy will go high in entire body. Of course, it will still be highest in place (aspects related to that place) where that planet and its zodiacs (especially MT sign) are posted. All in all using this concept, we can literally draw a closed circuit in between different houses and thus chakras.

Thus several souls would get into the same circuit at the same point of time but different point in space of that circuit which is why each one of them will have their own timeline. For example even in the same circuit, the zodiac into which the soul gets in decides the wiring of the body of the brain whereas the other soul’s body may have a different wiring of the brain as it has entered the same circuit but in a different zodiac/point. Not only that, each zodiac at different points of its progression from 0-30 degree is further connected to different circuits which in turn are further connected. Thus all this creates a cobweb type of structure of the entire Universe just like internet which the Vedic texts refer as “Aakashik records” (Aakash means space). This again is an example of YAT PINDE TAT BRAHAMANDE, where millions of soul enter into the hard disc of the Universe (or say Universe itself as we know) for experiencing different aspects of life. Remember these circuits are dynamic like internet which keeps changing basis the inputs (karmas) of humans/souls.

Also to note that zodiacs and their lords too create a circuit in between them. The owner of the zodiac will decide the flow of energy in between the two points and the strength of the planet will decide its (energy’s) strength. Plus different zodiacs depict different directions in the CD of the Universe. Thus activation of a specific zodiac depicts that the native will have lot of focus towards the direction corresponding to that zodiac or say the timeline will now move energy towards that direction.

*** When a child is born, it is also part of the same circuit as that of the parent with the difference that its starting point is something else (and not where the parent began) and its different houses too further develop cross connections which are different from divisional charts of the parent because of time factor. This is why the child’s fate can be guessed by D1 of the parent but not fully. Moreover since house number five is most active during this phase of life when the couple becomes parents, it is this house which is kept as first to check the likely Dosha of the child. Of course, apart from this, one must also check the Mahadasha and AntarDashas to know further modifications of those doshas. For example, a person having moon’s zodiac in fifth and going through Sade Sati but having strong Sun, is likely to have a child with high VP in first house but having the strong influence of Moon to slow down Pitta (one would need to see many aspects but this is just an example). These cross connections trigger formation of different atoms, minerals, proteins, fats and other chemicals at different times and space thereby creating our specific pattern of genes.

As such, contemporary science has begun to agree that it is food and environment that trigger different genes (DNA) in our body and can totally change our future basis what we eat and what environment we encounter. An example is that Queen bee and labour bees have exactly same genomes, however a queen bee becomes so because it feeds on jelly whereas the labour bee becomes so as it feeds on nectar. The former gives rise to an entire colony of bees whereas the latter none. Not only that, the genes also get modified (for good or bad) by food we eat (and environmental conditions) which in turn change our wiring and push us into consuming foods that may be more detrimental to us. This also establishes cause and effect relationship between genes and food/environmental factors.

*** Even houses and position of different planets can be understood through the circuit example. For example if a person has ketu in 12^th house, it indicates that the native was born (in first) just after Ketu’s energy. This means that the conditions in first house were when the circuit had started opening after experiencing maximum closure due to Ketu in 12^th house. Thus brain of such people (lagna) will be relatively closed and would work basis the experience gained after deep introspection.
