My Explanation :-- This year is called “Virodhi (means Enemity)” has the following lords governing various apects. The predictions based on Mundane astrol0gy.
Designation | Presiding planet | | Designation | Presiding planet |
King/ruler | Venus | | Rains-lord | Moon |
Minister | Mars | | Clouds lord | Moon |
Captain | Sun | | Rasa lord | Saturn |
Ruler of crops | Jupiter | | Neeras lord | Jupiter |
Priest lord | Jupiter | | Cattle lord | Sri Krishna |
The results of above mentioned deities / planets on the year’s situation are outlined here 1) Ruler / King is Venus : Samrudha Sasyaha, vasthu; dhaathri vrushtir; gaavohi sampoorna payahapradasyuhu; sthriyah priyaanaam, janayanthi-thoshaha, kama-upacharaihi, Bhruguje abja-naathe ! = Sukra is the ruler. So the land is fertile. Agricultual, horticultural and floricultural crops yield well. There will be normal and timely seasonal rains and crops grow well. The diaries flourish and diary products will be available in abundance. Young men and women show lot of mutual love and understanding and spend their lives in pleasant manner. 2) Minister / Advisor is Mars : Pura, grama, vana adeeni, dahynathe vahni-nabhrusam; vrushtir-madhya bhave dhruvam; manthinyena vanijesathihi = Kuja (Mangal; Angarka) is the Advisor. Kuja causes medium level rains on yearly average. There may be man-caused frequent fire accidents in cities, towns and village; forest fires may be frequent. There is a possibility of confrontation with enemies like Pakistan, Bangladesh and Chinna; they may intrude further for several miles into Indian territory. Constant vigilance is needed. 3) Sun is the Captain / Chief of armies :- Anyona yudham dharane-eswaraanam, alpa ambuda vaari dharaa sa-vathaaha; Rakthani sasyani phalanthi bhoumau, sena-adhipathe Divaakarasya = The chief ministers and cabinet ministers of various states fight among themselves on issues like water distribution in rivers, boarder issues etc. The cloud formation is belw normal level resulting in average rains. Grains in red colour have good yield. 4) Jupiter is the ruler of crops :-- Jupiter is the lord of crops; so generally the yields of crops shall be good. Cattle give ample milk. Fruit trees like Manago, Bananas give good yields. The rulers may take some care of people’s welfare. 5) Mercury is the lord of Grains :- Sookshma-dhanya phalam svalpam; svalpam varsham; svthkhanda mandale; Madhya sasyani-jayanthe, Budhe dhanya-adhipathihi = small sized grains like mustard, gingeli (sesame) give 45% yield. Moderate rains occur in infrequent intervals. The overall yield of crops may be about 75% . The Varsha chart shows Kuja is the lord of lagna (Scorpio) and 6th house (enemy house) is Mars and hes in 5th house (Pisces). Saturn is the lord of 3rd (Capricorn) and 4th houses (Aquarius) and he is in 11th house (Virgo) (laabha; gains) and aspects the lagna (3rd drushti). Four planets are conjunct in 6th house (enemy house); they are: Sun lord of 9th house (Bhagya, fortune; Sri Lakshmi sthana); Mercury is lord of 10th house (Rajya; Sri Narayana sthana); Sukra is lord of 7th (Sri Narayana sthana) and the lord of 12th house (loss, expenditure). Jupiter is lord of 2nd house (Sagittarius; dhana, riches) and 5th house ( Sri Lakshmi sthana) is conjunct with malefic Rahu in 4th house (Sri Narayana sthana). Ketu (malefic) is in 10th house (Sri Narayana sthana). So the positional aspect of all these panets is 55% beneficial. The Jaga chart shows the lagna is Capricorn and malefic Rahu is in it. Saturn is lord of lagna (Capricorn) and is in 9th house (Virgo; fortune; Bhagya; Sri Lakshmi sthana). Sani aspects (3rd drushti) Venus {(the lord of 5th house (Taurus; Sri Lakshmi sthana) and the 10th house (Libra; Sri Naryana sthana)} and Mars {the lord of 4th house (Aries; Sri Narayana sthana) and the lord of 11th house (Scorpio; gains and prosperity, laabha). So a relation between lords of Lagna and Dhana (riches), and Vahana (vehicles; houses) and panchama (welfare; children) and Rajya (profession) is established. Jupiter is lord of 3rd (relatives, friends and brothers) and 12th (loss; expenditure) houses is in 2nd house (Dhana; riches). Mercury is lord of 6th (enemy) and 9th Bhagya (riches and fortune) is in 5th house (Taurus; Sri Lakshmi sthana). Sun is the lord of 8th house (malefic; hole; diseases) is exalted and is in Aries (4th house; Sri Narayana sthana). Moon is the lord of 7th house (Cancer; Sri Narayana sthana) and is in 12th house (loss and expenditure). So here also the positional aspects all all the planets is 55% beneficial. Varsha (chart) lagna is Scorpio and its lord is Mars. Jaga (chart) lagna is Capricorn and its lord is Saturn. Their qualties (pravruthis) are entirely different. So the state governments and Cetral government lack coordination and cooperation as is now. They declare so many plans and projects as is now. Only 55% of the projects are started at very slow pace and they take undue delay to be complted, that too with exorbitant expenditure and wastage of tax-payers money. There will be back-biting, political pressures, criticisms from opposition politcians and vested interests hindering the projects aimed at welfare of people and development and providing amenities. Though the average rain fall (for the year) may be less, 75 to 80% of crop-yield can be obtained. The use of military and police force will be all the more increasing to keep law and order and suppress terrorist activites in different parts of the country. The invrease in rate of accidents and slow-growth rate, strikes and lock-outs and such negative factors continue to plague the industrial sector. The sluggishness in I.T. sector continues. There will be keen competition in automobile industry; new models of cars may be relased into market. The inflation rise continues due to unwise policies of governments. In the field of sports the enthusiasm rises and victories may improve. There will be an increase in the number of provocative incidents and frequent army confrontations on borders with Pakisthan, Bangaladsh and China. In Dec, 2009-Jan, 2010 period four planets conjuct in one house and in July-Aug—2009 period Saturn and Jupiter stay in 6th and 8th houses; these cominnations may cause some natural calamities in the country. Since Venus is the Ruler of the year, the governments at states and centre unite to takle these calamities and resuce the people. The overall conditions in the country will be 55% beneficial to people in India. Vedic astrologer-saint Daivajna Bhaskara (belong to Krishna river region) wrote : Sraavana abde, dharaabhathi threedasa ssparthi manavaihi, manaso-abhheshta vrushtya-argha sasya pushpa phala adibhihi = During this year (named Virodhi) there will be abundant rains. During July-Nov period many rivers get flooded in spate and may cause damage to the vast areas on either side of the river. Ganga and Brahamaputhra and Yamuna and five main rivers of Sindu (like Jheelam, Bias etc) may get additional floods during summer season also. 55% of rain-fall shall be in seas and 45% on land-areas in India. In Varahasamhitha it was mentioned that Virodhi named year shall be generally happy one to people and there will be plenty of crops over the entire country. Some areas like Rayalseema, Telangana in Andhra Pradesh and many areas in rain-shadow regions mauys suffer severe draught conditions during Mar-June summer months. Generally 85% of the crops give very good yeild. People live generally a prosperous and happy life. Thousands of peoples of different regions may come under the very malefic influence of villanous and dirty politicians and get their minds poisoned and may fight among themselves on regional (like Telangana issue) and other such political issues (raised by purely selfish politicians) causing frequent violence and damages; religious fanatics (rather lunatics) trained in neighbouring enemy-countries like Paksithan and Bangaladesh indulge in terrorist activities and may cause frequent massacres and violence and may kill scores of innocent people. That is why this year is called “Virodhi (meaning Enemity). Even terrorists like Naxalites often cause violence, massacres and damage to people and their properties. High order of vigilance is needed in the sensitive areas of the country both by Government agncies and enlightened people to prevent such terrorist activities. Election-time vi0lence and large-scale rigging and foul practices are predicted during election period, though Governments claim free, fair and peaceful elections. A change in Governments in most of the states is foreseen. Most of the politicians continue to plunder people and their properties. So this astrologer likes to caution and urge sincere and duty-bound persons to endevour their best to combat such situations and to minimize such damages.
