Eating Right for the Right Mind and Success Astrology


As said we are what we eat. If we look at it .. it is very rightly said. let's say we eat fried and heavy food... we will feel sleepy after that  and would want to go to sleep or take  rest or lazy around.

Like wise if we have a light food we will feel good and ready to do what ever next thing we want to do. 

With time some of us start picking up different eating habits than we are used to when we are healthy and start putting up weight and feeling unhealthy. 

It happened to me around 4-5 years ago.. My ice-cream intake stated going up at night, I was eating a lot outside, was eating chocolate and cakes. It is not that these things are bad.. But these became my regular food and didn't do any exercise.. Slowly I started putting on weight, started feeling tired and didn’t feel like doing much, used to get irritated very quickly and was sleeping 8-9 hours and still didn't feel fresh.

I got to 189 lbs .. Which was very heavy for me .. In the morning I didn't feel like doing anything.. I started feeling bad about food and didn't feel any better.

When it got too much for me,  I decided to lose weight and to go on a no oil diet and lost 13 lbs or so and more.. I came down to 165 lbs .. Weight wise I started feeling good .. But I was still hungry and wanted to eat more. I had to exercise lot of control to keep my weight down.  I got my checkup done and started taking raw Olive oil and coconut oil which helped my body get oil.. which made me feel better.

I have been doing changes in my diet and trying to keep my energy levels up. Now I am fresh after 6 hours of sleep on the weekdays. I try to sleep early and get up early.. this has helped me focus and have a stable mind.

Eating is the most important thing for keeping the mind calm and relaxed. If we eat heavy food we feel tired and mind doesn't function well. If we eat light and nutritive food we feel energetic and our mind is calm and easy to take on any conversation and situation. Every body is different with a calm mind the Planets doesn't effect us that much as the harmful planets first make us angry, irritated or emotional before they cause us to do harm to ourselves.  A calm mind has less probability of getting influenced by the bad planetary placements. 

Dieting is not solution for those people who have weight gain tendency, because when they do dieting they loose weight and when they are not on dieting they easily gain weight. These people need to choose food which is fulfilling and keep their weight in check.  e.g. olive oil, coconut oil, oatmeal, brown rice, lot of vegetables and fruits are the good food choice for them. 

Check with your doctor.. We should considering eating dopamine generating food as it can create natural happy for no reason mood and attitude. Some of them are apples, avocado,  bananas, beets, green leafy vegetables, green tea, yogurt, lima beans, oatmeal, sesame and pumpkin seeds , watermelon, wheat germ, turmeric, fenugreek, ginseng, milk thistle, red clover, almonds

Wrong kind of food habits appears when we are emotionally weak and able to have discipline on food habits. When we are emotionally weak (moon weak) and have no control or discipline ( weak mars) we want some happiness ( Venus stuff ) and food gives us some happiness for a movement, we gain weight. So try to live in a balance by strengthening your emotions by making your Mars strong so that you can control your desire for eating. 


So we can say if we eat right we can be successful, have a better life and heal ourselves.

When Failure is not an Option Astrology

I think we all want to be successful, reach heights , be rich and happy. As we know it takes a lot of effort to be successful, rich and be happy. It needs lot of positive attitude , willingness to learn and be self-motivated. If we look at the world not many people are .. we are all struggling to achieve success.

On the flip side of the coin we don't want to fail and failure is not an option for us .. as our family depends on us and we want to succeed.

(Caution when planets are badly placed in the bottom of the article .. )

To be success full we don't know all.. we need guidance from our parents, teachers, education  and sometimes advisers..
When we need are in tough times we reach out to our parents and well wishers. When we get sick we go to a doctor for advice .

We rarely do the self analysis to understand  our situation , even if we do it... in most of the case we consider ourselves to be right and find others to be at fault and circumstances beyond our control. 

Astrologer is someone who doesn't know us, they just look at the chart  and start explaining the energies that influences us at a higher level. This  can be a insight into some of the things we think and how we react to the situations.

e.g If we are aware of the following we may decide to make the right calls in life to be successful. These planets influence our mind .. and as you know mind drives our decisions.

If Saturn  is not rightly placed, then we lack commitment and determination. So we need to make sure the we are committed e.g  to be successful in career.

If Moon is  not rightly placed, then we may have manage our emotions better and be thoughtful of how we react to things.

If Sun is not rightly placed, we may feel lack of confidence so we should know how to correctly boost our confidence.

If Jupiter is not rightly placed, then we may not be receiving right advice, So we should be thoughtful of accepting the advice and do a thorough analysis before we act on it.

If Venus is not rightly placed, we may have to be aware of tough challenges in relationships, So we need to be thoughtful of how be deal in relationships.

If Mercury is not rightly placed, we may have challenges while taking the right decisions. So we need to be thoughtful  and do a thorough analysis before we make a decision.

If Mars is not rightly placed, we are not able to live in discipline and not able to take right action. . So we need to do the analysis to see if the actions are practical or we are just being wrong action.

Where ever Rahu is placed, it makes us want more of it , If we know the placement of Rahu then we can make a call of how to channeled that energy in right direction so that we balance the area in life to be happy. 

Where ever Ketu is placed, it makes us withdraw from it, If we know the placement of Ketu then we can make a call of how do we engage in life and not be left out and make life fulfilled.

DigBala or Directional strength is very important in astrology. It's the concept that shows Planets on certain direction or in houses do very well. Digbala is just like planet have double strength when it in certain direction or in houses.

Sun: As we know Sun is the power and the main source of light of our solar system. Sun rise from the east and go down in the west. Sun is on the head directly in 10th house (south direction) and Sun is not visible in the night (north direction). So Sun have digbala in 10th house that is south direction and no digbala or direction strength in 4th house ( North). Sun is weak in 4th house because 4th house is night.

Moon: Is the planet of peace and comfort and Moon visible in the night. Moon rule the 4th house and it is peaceful in the 4th house because 4th house is night.

This is not good for relationship.

Jupiter: Same goes with the Jupiter. Jupiter Is the planet of hope, knowledge and wisdom. Jupiter placed in 1st house or in ascendant it have digbala or directional strength.  1st house is the place where we should hopeful and learning, gaining wisdom in the world it is good placement for Jupiter.

Venus: Is the planet of love, happiness and conveyance and visible in the night. Venus rules the 7th house and when you integrate happiness with your heart you will be peaceful. Therefore Venus in digbala or gets directional strength in 4th house. Venus is placed in 10th house it loses its happiness because in 10th house there is too much responsibility and work which Venus don’t like it. Venus loses her directional strength in 10th house.

Saturn: Saturn is the planet of fear and anxiety. Saturn loses its digbala or directional strength in 1st house, because Saturn in 1st house makes personality fearful and slow in learning.
