Blessing in a Chart

Ash, with all respect, but in my view it is not so simple. I think that the "blessing" should be defined precisely.

With present definition, I can prove my statement with many charts. Let say, take for example chart of Bill Gates. It does not matter if one takes lagna of Gemini or Cancer (as there are two versions around). In both cases, relationship of his 1st and 9th lord does not show blessings.

I can not speak about his life with 100% certainty, but he does not look like to be without basic blessings of higher status in society. like good wife and children, good employment, very good riches, contacts with influential persons of the World, some fame, some skills, etc...

In some parts of the Word that would be blessings... .:)

Do you have a definition of "blessing" ?

And, is there a space to consider "blessings" for different houses ?

All the best,
Dadhi

Dear Dadhi,

Blessing, is something that is beyond money, wealth fame etc. For
example say u are teaching KAS to some student of yours or say u are
solving a chart in says years from now and for example, something is
difficult, then from now where and out of the blue say you might
remember some law or something that u had discussed might just come in
your mind, that is also blessing.

Say you are driving and there is an accident, maybe due to blessing
one might get saved and a big loss might get averted due to presence
of mind.

Another example is that say if there are problems in marriage, so due
to blessings, and if one listens to elders or it can be due to some
words of elders or guru or senior something might stike a person and
he or she might not break the marriage.

At work say one is facing a difficult problem or say some machine is
not working or something like that, then out of the blue one might
remember some lesson of engineering school or some experience might
come to mind with which you can solve such problems.

So the meaning of "Blessing" is as per vedic era.

Another way of seeing bill gates chart, who's chart we do not know, or
are not certain, if there is no blessing means he might have had to
work hard to achieve fame, he or she might not get to stay much with
parents, or might have to face so many legal battles or might not be
able to enjoy wealth etc.

However, do notice, now a days, as per media, bill gates is doing so
much charity work and he is using the "power of giving" to help fight
HIV, Cancer etc., so he might get the blessing of so many families who
are given a chance :-).

In any case, I hope u understand,

In short, those who have blessings, their life goes smooth. They
might not have money, or fame, but they will have happiness and
contentment.

Yes, also you can get blessings, by serving your parents, guru despite
you do not have blessing in chart. Doing it with bhakti and devotion.
That way also one can get blessing even if that is not in chart.
