# Transformania in Relationships

Рина Задвиль

“Transformania in Relationships” is a book designed to help women become more self-aware, learn to recognize “red flags” in romantic relationships, and make the right choice of partner through the lens of mysticism, esotericism, and the ancient Vedic teachings: Nimitta Shastra – the art of interpreting the signs of the Universe; Swapna Shastra – the understanding of dreams; Vedic astrology – for analyzing compatibility and identifying problematic patterns in the natal charts of both partners; Mukha Samudrika Shastra – the science of reading the face; Vastu Shastra – the Indian doctrine of harmonious spatial and architectural planning; Astrocartography, as well as the understanding of relationships from the perspectives of behavioral psychology and energetic interaction.

## Preface

Shiva and Shakti – the union of the masculine and the feminine – are akin to Yin and Yang, Purusha and Prakriti.

Shakti is power, nature, the changeable, the maternal; she personifies the feminine.

Shiva is pure consciousness, the constant, the free; he personifies the masculine.

A person needs both principles to remain in balance.

Hello!

If you’ve ever had to dodge pickup-course graduates on the street, swipe right and left on dating apps without any results, go on unsuccessful dates with men who later turn out to be followers of misogynistic podcasts, wait for a ring in a relationship that’s been going on for years, rarely leave the house and therefore find it difficult to meet anyone – or if you’ve simply realized that everything that has happened in your personal life so far is not at all what you truly wanted – stop! The time for change has come.

If mysticism and esotericism arouse your curiosity, it’s quite possible that this book will open before you the opportunity to embark on a journey of transformation – both on a personal level and in the realm of relationships – bringing you a little closer to the fulfillment of your cherished desire, or at least helping you move away from destructive connections.

I want to share with you certain esoteric and Vedic areas of knowledge that I have been studying for several years, as well as cases from my personal experience, in the hope that they may be of benefit to you.

Warning!

After reading this book, you risk beginning to lose men who merely waste your time.

## Nimitta Shastra and Relationships


You know that feeling – the moment after you’ve gotten ready for a date: you’ve put on something pretty, done your makeup, styled your hair, sprayed on some perfume… And suddenly, there’s that strange sensation in your stomach – something unpleasant, though you don’t understand why, since nothing seems to have happened… (yet). And you tell yourself: “Alright, I hope I’m not going for nothing.”

That feeling is your intuition speaking: “Hey! Where do you think you’re going, madam? He’s not for you!”

The next day, out of nowhere, when there are never any flies in your home, you sit down to eat, your thoughts wandering – and suddenly, tiny flies fall onto your plate. You’re sure it means nothing and that it’s probably just a coincidence – but no, this is a nimitta (a sign from the Universe).

Perhaps afterward, you went on a few more dates with the same man, but nothing came of it. Something he did or said made you realize that you needed to distance yourself from him immediately, block him everywhere possible, and regret ever giving him a chance.

Nimitta Shastra is a particularly mystical branch of the Vedas. In the ancient Indian scriptures, much has been written about various means of predicting the future and understanding complex situations. One of these methods is receiving signs from the Universe (nimitta shastra), which hint at what is to come – for better or for worse.

Try to recall all the times when something happened right at the moment of meeting someone.

If after a date – or after touching him, or after spending the night at his place – you felt unwell (nausea, a sickly feeling, headache, stomach pain), or noticed a sudden worsening in your appearance – acne, unruly hair or eyebrows, a cut, severe hair loss, a rash, and so on – without any apparent reason, and then, once home and away from him, suddenly felt fine again – this may be an “allergic” reaction to an energetic vampire.

In any case, it’s a very bad sign concerning the man. It indicates malicious intentions on his part.

You might deceive your mind – but the body cannot be fooled.

If you’ve tried to arrange a date several times, and each time something serious happened that forced you to cancel – for example, an accident or his house suddenly burned down (yes, literally) – you should think carefully about whether you should meet at all. Maybe that encounter would truly turn out to be “explosive”…

Or perhaps once you were rushing to submit an assignment at college, entered the station, but for some reason the turnstile wouldn’t work – that’s a sign your work wasn’t yet ready to be submitted, and it’s no surprise if you ended up receiving a low grade.

Or maybe you were on your way to an important meeting. You always arrive early, but on that particular day, even though you’d calculated everything as usual and should have arrived ahead of time, something happened on the way, and you realized you’d be a few minutes late. This is a negative nimitta, connected to the place you’re going or the people you’re about to meet. Something there is “unclean,” and it’s a serious warning.

Today, in the modern world, we have the time to go on dates and get to know a partner before deciding whether to enter a relationship or start a family. Within several weeks or months, we have enough time to receive a sufficient number of nimittas concerning a man and our potential relationship. The important thing is not to close your eyes to certain situations and not to ignore the obvious signs sent by the Universe.

On the other hand, not everything is a nimitta. Therefore, one shouldn’t try to interpret every small thing one sees or experiences as something connected to one’s situation – it might have nothing to do with it at all.

The timing of when the sign appears is crucial for understanding whether it’s truly a sign or merely a coincidence. A nimitta may come at the very moment you ask a question, speak about something, do something, or think about something – and then it appears as a direct answer to that specific thought or action (like a question and an answer).

It’s important to pay attention if a nimitta repeats itself. Sometimes it manifests in the same form, and sometimes the Universe sends a different kind of nimitta. This usually happens when we ignore or fail to notice the first sign.

Categories of Nimittas

Sound (Shabda Nimitta) – for example: someone in the room asks a question, and suddenly, before anyone can answer, there’s a terrible noise from outside. The answer to the question is most likely “no” or “it’s not worth it.” Such signs carry special weight if they appear immediately after an inner question or thought.

Vision (Darshana Nimitta) – people or symbols that appear unexpectedly; observing animals behaving in an unusual way; or images seen in dreams.

Smell (Gandha Nimitta) – a pleasant or unpleasant scent that arises suddenly is considered a very subtle (sattvic) sign, more common among sensitive individuals, and therefore relatively rare.

For example: you look at a photo of a person and suddenly sense a disgusting smell, even though you’re in a clean environment – that’s a bad sign concerning the person in the picture.

Taste (Rasa Nimitta) – an unexpected taste in food or drink can indicate a positive or negative tendency at that moment.

Physical Sensation (Sprasha Nimitta) – sudden trembling, tingling, heat, or cold in the body. This is considered a sign of the influence of subtle or karmic forces. In places with ghostly activity, a sudden chill may indicate paranormal presence.

External Events (Drishta / Aharana Nimitta) – an unexpected natural occurrence (for example, a sudden or strange change in weather: lightning, a strong gust of wind, unexpected rain), a falling object, an accident, or the sudden appearance of a person.

Dreams (Swapna Nimitta) – dreams are regarded as a separate form of nimitta. Depending on the time of night and the dream’s content, one can determine whether it is a message or merely a mental process of the subconscious.

Inner Nimitta (Antar Nimitta) – sudden intuition, a thought that arises without reason. It is considered the highest form of nimitta – as if the soul itself whispers a message.

Common Signs and Their Interpretation According to Nimitta Shastra

Fruits and flowers – good signs.

Falling leaves or branches without visible cause – loss.

A pleasant smell of food – an excellent sign.

A burning candle, flame, or lit lamp – good signs.

A box of matches spilling open foretells luck in love for single people.

Milk boiling over, burning, or spilling from a pot – a bad omen. Yet in general, the appearance of dairy products is a good sign.

Dropping something on the floor or accidentally spilling salt – negative signs.

Broken glass – the glass has absorbed the evil eye.

A broken mirror – a well-known bad omen.

Finding objects on the street such as jewelry, money, keys, a horseshoe, a beautiful feather, or unusual stones – according to Nimitta Shastra, these may be positive signs. However, one must never pick them up or, worse, wear them. There are known cases where people deliberately threw away bewitched objects to transfer their illnesses or misfortunes to whoever would take or touch them. In extreme cases, the object may be possessed by a spirit or demon.

Meeting a joyful pregnant woman or a woman with a small child – a wonderful sign foretelling abundance and blessings.

Seeing someone holding food or drink – a good sign.

Events that get canceled, or lost tickets – a sign that you have avoided something undesirable, or an indication to stay away from that event.

Nimittas Related to Sounds

A doorbell or phone ringing at the very moment you think of something – a positive sign, as if confirming your thought. Similarly, pleasant sounds of musical instruments of various kinds are considered very good signs. Hearing off-key or discordant playing is a less favorable one.

Thinking of something and suddenly overhearing others’ conversation or an echo – sometimes conversations we hear clearly, even though they don’t concern us, while we’re pondering something, can turn out to be the very answer we seek.

Children’s laughter – a harbinger of joy.

Unpleasant animal sounds or their cries – bad signs, especially if they occur frequently. Hearing a dog that cries or barks hysterically again and again foretells the presence of an enemy disguised as a friend or a partner with malicious, selfish intentions.

Silence after a loud noise – a symbol of possible upcoming changes; it’s a cue to pause before making a decision.

The sound of fire – signifies activity; one should remain calm.

The sound of water – if it seems that water is “bursting out” of a faucet, it’s a bad sign for financial or emotional matters. If the water flows smoothly – it’s a good sign.

A terrible or irritating noise – a distinctly ill omen.

The Voice of a Man

If you’re talking to a man, or he sends you a voice message and you’re still unsure whether you want to go on a date with him, listen carefully to his voice and pay attention to the inner feeling it evokes – positive or negative. If needed, wait a bit. Sometimes, when the perception is negative, the voice may sound unpleasant to you, or there may be a tightening sensation in the body (most often in the abdominal area), or a faint feeling that something is wrong.

If he is truly your man, you’ll feel an expansion in the heart. Usually, this sensation arises automatically, without your intention – if your intuition is developed.


Nimittas Related to Animals

There are many nimittas connected with animals. A distinctive feature of this topic is that a person often perceives more nimittas related to their totem animal or spirit guide animal than to others.

For example, if someone’s guiding animal is a dog, many nimittas or mystical situations involving dogs will occur throughout that person’s life.

Examples of Signs:

Cow – a good sign, foretelling prosperity and blessing.

Thinking about a relationship and suddenly seeing a cat and a dog together – a bad omen, indicating quarrels and incompatibility.

A dog barking for no reason – according to Nimitta Shastra, may indicate illness that will affect someone in the family. Most often, it is a warning about a negative situation or an encounter with an enemy.

Seeing a black cat crossing the road from right to left – a very well-known bad omen. The cat is a mystical animal associated with the Moon, and the left side is also under the Moon’s influence, while the right side is ruled by the Sun. Many people report experiencing real misfortunes after such an encounter with a cat on the street.

Similarly, a situation in which a cat walks in the same direction from which a person has just come (and the person is about to walk back that way) is also considered an unfavorable sign.

In general, dogs, cats, and rabbits are regarded as inauspicious signs according to the Vedas – so much so that it is not recommended to keep them at home. In various religions, it is advised to perform frequent energetic cleansing of the home if such animals live there, as they attract heavy, earthly negative energies into the space.

In contrast, fish, cows, and elephants are considered auspicious signs in the Vedic tradition. Fish are associated with Jupiter and spirituality (Jupiter is also the ruler of Pisces), and feeding them is considered a meritorious act. The cow is sacred in the eyes of Indians, as is the bull Nandi. The elephant is linked with Lord Ganesha.

A dog following a person – an unfavorable sign, suggesting that one should be cautious about the people they allow into their circle. Can they be trusted? Are they true friends?

A bird building a nest within your property – a very positive sign, foretelling good fortune (unless the bird has a negative connotation, such as an owl).

A peacock – heralds joyful events.

A swan – a highly auspicious sign.

A stork – a benevolent omen.

A crow – associated with the planet Saturn and negative karma. Seeing a crow can be either a good or a very bad sign, depending on its behavior.

Positive Crow Signs:

A crow dropping something good near you or holding something useful in its beak (if it holds something unpleasant or old – that’s a bad sign).

A crow flying from right to left (left to right – unfavorable).

Two crows sharing food – a sign of peace and harmony in relationships.

A crow near a beautiful, healthy plant – a good omen.

A crow sitting calmly on a car roof – also a positive sign.

Negative Crow Signs:

A crow cawing and spreading its wings, or a crow (or a flock of crows) attacking a person, flying too close, touching, or flying directly overhead.

A crow throwing something at a person – may symbolize loss.

A crow circling a house three times, or tapping on a window – a warning of danger or serious trouble (depending on the direction of the window according to Vastu).

If a crow makes noise in the morning near the left side of the house – a very bad omen.

Seeing a crow in a cemetery – a hint of something coming to an end.

A crow flying in a clockwise circle – symbolizes family conflicts; counterclockwise – conflicts with enemies or acquaintances.

A crow preening itself or standing on one leg – also extremely negative signs.

Seagull – associated with Rahu (the karmic lunar node). The interpretation depends on its behavior – whether calm or aggressive.

Pigeon – generally a negative sign, as the pigeon is associated with the god Yama (the lord of death). If the pigeon has any defect, it is an especially bad omen.

Owl – a mystical symbol connected with Ketu. It can be a positive sign in financial matters, but in other aspects, it is highly unfavorable.

A lizard entering the house – a very bad sign, foretelling various negative situations.

Snakes, spiders, butterflies, and bees – can be positive signs, as long as they do not attack the person who sees them.

Mice and rats – bad omens, foretelling negative changes in financial or health matters, or bringing destruction.

Seeing an animal looking for a hiding place – an unfavorable sign.

A dead animal – may be a negative omen. If the carcass is found on your property, it is necessary to cleanse and energetically purify the area immediately.


Nimittas in the Home

A spruce tree in the yard – a nimitta with an ominous reputation. According to Nimitta Shastra, once such a tree grows taller than the roof of the house, the owner may die. Therefore, it is better not to plant such trees within the household grounds.

A broken lock – a broken door lock, especially on the front door, indicates a very poor state of security, both emotional and physical – and not merely because anyone could enter the house.

If you visit someone’s home and notice broken locks or doors, this is a sign that may point to direct or verbal abuse.

If, however, a pet in the home was responsible for the broken lock, this speaks of an extremely serious spiritual problem.

A person who invites you into a home with a broken door lock foretells an intention to violate your personal boundaries.

Of course, if the door is simply thirty years old or more, this is probably not a sign – merely an indication that it’s time to replace it.

A lost key is considered a bad omen.

A clock or any other electronic device that suddenly stops or breaks at the moment of reflection or planning something – a bad sign.

A flickering lamp in a certain area of the house – if you constantly have to replace the lightbulb in the same fixture, it may be due to a technical issue or faulty wiring, but it may also be a nimitta hinting at impure energy in that space. If the wiring and lamp are in perfect order yet the flickering continues – it is most likely a negative nimitta.

Clothing that tears unexpectedly, or food that spoils for no apparent reason (not due to expiration or a broken refrigerator) – these are negative signs that may foretell upcoming problems.

Household nimittas indicating the possible presence of an entity or ghost:

A cat that stares intensely into empty space and becomes restless; objects that move or make sounds by themselves; lights turning on or off without cause; items breaking; water leaks or drips; furniture or doors creaking without reason.

To conclude that an entity is present, several such signs must occur simultaneously.

Physical Sensations

According to Nimitta Shastra, strange bodily sensations in a healthy man on the right side of the body symbolize “yes,” while those on the left side symbolize “no.”

For women, it is the opposite: the left side is a positive sign, and the right side is negative.

For example: If a woman’s right eye twitches or itches – it’s a sign of something bad that may happen (for the left eye, the interpretation is reversed – it’s positive). For men, the meanings are opposite.

A strange feeling in the nose may indicate receiving good news or monetary gain.

Sneezing twice before leaving the house – a good sign; sneezing once immediately before starting something new – an extremely bad sign.

A tingling in the right cheek – a good sign; in the left cheek – a bad one.

Ringing in the right ear – a sign of good fortune. Ringing in the left ear – a bad omen warning of problems. For women, it is reversed: ringing in the right ear – a bad sign that may come true within a few hours, even if the context is unclear; ringing in the left ear – a good sign.

Tripping at the moment when thinking about something – a bad omen concerning the subject of your thought.

Stumbling or falling on stairs – also considered a negative sign.

Tingling sensations in the body – most often a negative omen.

Situations on Dates in the Modern World

If on a date the food tastes bad or is spoiled, or if there is dirt – this is a bad sign regarding the man you met.

If during the date something falls from your hands onto the floor and points toward the exit, it’s likely a sign that you should run.

Once, when I met a man for a first date at a restaurant, I was holding my phone for just a moment – and suddenly, it slipped and flew far away toward the door.

A few days later, it turned out we had deep and irreconcilable differences in our values and intentions regarding relationships. Fortunately, that became clear very quickly. It turned out that sometimes our spiritual protection tries to safeguard us through invisible physical intervention.

If during a date a waiter accidentally hits you on the head with a tray, that’s a sign to “wake up.”

Even if you’re trying to see the man in a positive light without knowing him deeply yet, the Universe will try to awaken you and give you a “slap” in one form or another – because soon it will become evident that the man in front of you is not for you.

If you sit somewhere and there’s cigarette ash nearby – it’s a bad sign.

Electronic devices suddenly breaking down – a very bad omen! If a guest visits your home and something suddenly breaks or stops working – it’s a sign that something is wrong with that person.

Jewelry that breaks or falls near a certain person is also a bad sign concerning them. Most likely, that person carries very strong negative energy (possibly an energetic vampire or someone with a personality disorder), and the jewelry absorbs this energy to protect you – which causes it to break or fall.

Nimittas Associated with Planets According to the Vedas

According to the Vedas, planets manifest themselves through numerous symbols we encounter in everyday life. Many nimittas are directly linked to planets, as each corresponds to certain numbers (Vedic numerology), colors, days of the week, flavors of food and drink that you consume, and even sounds you hear – whether music, noises, or tones of speech.


At the moment when you think about something in the context of a relationship (or any other situation) and suddenly sense a taste you did not expect – it may be a sign, depending on the flavor you felt:

Bitter Taste (Sun)

A bad sign. Bitterness points to dryness, criticism, and excessive ego.

In relationships, it may indicate rigidity or a judgmental attitude.

It is better to slow down, soften your communication, and avoid making sharp decisions on that day.

Salty Taste (Moon)

It can be a positive sign, but not necessarily.

Saltiness is connected to closeness, emotions, and comfort.

In relationships, it encourages intimacy, warmth, and mutual care – the key is not to fall into dependency or fear of letting go if you see that the other person is not equally willing to invest in the relationship.

If your partner cooks for you and the food turns out salty like the Dead Sea, it does not necessarily mean he is in love with you.

Sweet Taste (Jupiter)

A good sign. Sweetness symbolizes abundance, generosity, and blessing.

In relationships, it hints at good intentions and long-term stability.

This is a favorable time for serious conversations and progress in the union.

Combination of Flavors (Mercury)

In relationships, this may indicate instability and requires careful attention.

This sign suggests complexity or duality, and most often, the “truth” is revealed through dialogue.

Recommendation: have an open conversation, ask clarifying questions, and do not rush into commitments until all details are clear.

If you are only at the beginning of a connection or on a first date – let him speak more than you do, and he will reveal himself through his own words.

Sour Taste (Venus)

A good sign. Sourness brings movement, renewal, and a spark of attraction.

In relationships, it can ignite flirtation and vitality; channel this energy into creativity and light-hearted communication, avoiding excessive sarcasm.

Pungency (Mars)

A bad sign for relationships. Spiciness is not truly a taste – it is a bodily reaction to certain foods (there are only five tastes: sweet, bitter, sour, salty, and umami).

Spiciness indicates impulsiveness, impatience, and a tendency toward conflict.

It is better to postpone arguments, release energy through physical activity before meetings, and maintain a calm manner of communication.

Astringent Taste (Saturn)

A bad sign. Astringency indicates delays, restrictions, and emotional coldness.

In relationships, it may bring a sense of distance or heaviness.

It is advisable to plan small, orderly steps, establish healthy boundaries, and avoid inflated expectations during this period.

Numbers as Signs from the Universe

Number 0 or its appearance – an unfavorable sign. This also applies to double or triple-digit numbers containing zeros.

Number 1 (ruled by the Sun) or its manifestation – such as a single crow – in the context of relationships may symbolize loneliness.

Number 2 (ruled by the Moon) or its manifestation in the form of two similar objects or two people – a good omen for relationships.

Number 3 (ruled by Jupiter) or its manifestation – a positive sign in all areas except relationships.

Number 4 (ruled by Rahu) or its manifestation – a bad sign.

Number 5 (ruled by Mercury) or its manifestation – a positive sign in all areas except relationships.

Number 6 (ruled by Venus) or its manifestation – a favorable omen, predicting good events.

Number 7 (ruled by Ketu) or its manifestation – an extremely bad sign in all spheres.

Number 8 (ruled by Saturn) or its manifestation – delays and cancellations.

Number 9 (ruled by Mars) or its manifestation – impulsive actions and haste.

Repeating Numbers (three or four times)

Like “angel numbers” – appearing in phone numbers, license plates, or time on clocks (for example, 11:11) – may also be interpreted as nimittas, especially if they frequently catch your eye.

Meanings of Angel Numbers:

111 – transition to new beginnings, spiritual growth, and creativity born from thought.

222 – balance, harmony, cooperation; trust in good and in the Universe.

333 – symbol of protection and spiritual guidance (Brahma, Shiva, and Vishnu); a call to awakening, spiritual growth, and the use of creative potential.

444 – the number of Rahu (4); warns against obsession and illusion. It’s important to stay grounded when making serious decisions.

555 – freedom, new opportunities, change, and transformation along the path.

666 – a call from spiritual guides to refocus; you must give more attention and sensitivity to your loved ones.

777 – Ketu; inner wisdom and spiritual awareness. A sign that the person is on the right path.

888 – prosperity, balance, and success; may appear as a sign before getting a job or achieving financial progress.

999 – transformation, completion, and new beginnings; a call to reconnect with the soul’s spiritual path.

## Dreams – Swapna Shastra


Dreams are also a kind of nimitta – the only difference is that they operate on the subconscious level, which receives signs from the Universe, and they can serve as an additional tool for self-knowledge and personal growth.

Swapna Shastra is an ancient Vedic system that helps interpret dreams (the word swapna means “sleep” or “dream”). This knowledge allows us to interpret dreams through the subconscious mind, to foresee future events, and to receive spiritual guidance. Naturally, dream interpretations in Swapna Shastra are based on Vedic culture.

According to Swapna Shastra, many dream meanings can be the opposite of what is seen in the dream: for example, a dream of wealth may foretell poverty, and a dream of beauty may predict illness. Therefore, dreams that appear “good” do not always come true as they seem.

Dream Cycles During the Night and Their Significance

Early hours of the night (before midnight)

Most often connected with the digestion of daily experiences. Such dreams are considered less prophetic and reflect events of the previous day. If a disturbing dream occurs at this time, it usually carries little significance.

Midnight to pre-dawn hours

Dreams become clearer and sometimes touch deeper layers of the soul. Here, karmic symbols begin to appear. Dreams during this time may bring warnings (“red flags”) or indicate possible future events.

Pre-dawn (around 3–5 a.m.)

This is the most important time according to Swapna Shastra.

Consciousness is less “heavy,” the body rests, and the senses are calm, so dreams near sunrise can have a truly prophetic nature and may come true.

A dream in this hour that remains vivid in memory after waking is considered especially significant.

After sunrise or during a second morning sleep

Dreams at this time sometimes manifest quickly, even the same day. This is because the consciousness lies close to the waking state, making the experience directly connected to the realm of near reality.

In general, daytime dreams usually arise from active brain function and most often have no real significance, even if they are frightening.

Dreams after heavy meals or in an imbalanced physical condition are also considered less reliable.

Positive Dreams According to Swapna Shastra (Shubha Swapna)

Tree with green leaves – peace and tranquility.

Promotion or advancement – success and achievement.

Acting as a lawyer in a dream – respect and recognition of one’s efforts.

Books – a good sign.

Death – long life.

Hunger – leisure, love, prosperity, and comfort.

Green field – happiness and wealth.

Fire – friendship, warmth, health, and happiness.

Flowers – good fortune and prosperity.

Deity – a transformative experience.

House – a good sign for family matters.

Palace – wealth and honor.

Lamp – happy family life.

Prison – prosperity and future luck.

Studying – gaining respect and influence in the future.

Light – honor and wealth.

Money – receiving money in a dream symbolizes prosperity; giving money – generosity.

Cutting hair or nails – removal of negativity and obstacles, coming prosperity and financial stability.

Seeing one’s reflection in a mirror – career success and self-realization.

Neutral Dreams According to Swapna Shastra

Illness – if the dreamer is ill, this may indicate recovery. But if a young man sees illness in his dream, it can be a warning about bad company. Caution against temptations is advised.

Giant – a great trial, but if the dreamer is determined, he will overcome it successfully.

King – depends on the nature of the king: if kind – a good omen; if cruel – difficulties.

Office – depends on whether the dreamer enjoys their work or not.

Negative Dreams According to Swapna Shastra (Ashubha Swapna)

Tree with yellow leaves – illness.

Quarrel, violence, or war – serious conflict or problem.

Accidents – difficulties and pain.

Adultery – problems or missed opportunities.

Anger – conflict with a friend or loved one.

Blindness (or something covering the eyes) – false friends or people speaking ill behind one’s back.

Corpse – bad omen.

Devil – avoid temptations, as something bad may occur.

Eclipse of the Moon or Sun – a bad sign, possible troubles ahead.

Embroidery – a warning of deceit.

Withered field – hardships.

Ghost – difficulties and active enemies.

Leprosy – enemies and multiple misfortunes.

Broken limbs – destruction of trust, loyalty, or marital vows.

Murder – violent situation in the future.

Noises – quarrels.

Dismissal from work – personal failure.

Singing – sadness.

Animal Symbols in Dreams According to Swapna Shastra

Lion – fame, happiness, and recognition.

Frog – success.

Chirping birds – improvement in financial condition.

Milking a cow – wealth.

Elephant – abundance, great success, and strength.

Riding a horse – a smooth path; a galloping horse – a sense of freedom and career success.

Donkey – hard work leading to success.

Camel – difficulties that the dreamer will overcome.

Pig – a difficult test that will be resolved with others’ help.

Snake – a dangerous enemy.

Owl – unfavorable sign, may foretell problems or illness.

Crow – bad omen.

Cat – unfavorable sign; killing a cat in a dream – exposure of enemies.

Insects – bad omen, may predict a serious problem or indicate a person in the dreamer’s life who secretly harbors ill will.

Birds – difficulties.

Dog – the meaning depends on its behavior: if the dog is friendly, playful, or appears positive – good sign, symbolizing friendship, support, and success. If the dog barks or bites – it means an enemy nearby.

A black dog in a dream may sometimes foretell receiving money, provided it does not attack the dreamer.

If the black dog appeared unpleasant or threatening – it is a bad omen.


Women tend to dream more often than men, due to their deeper connection with higher powers, since we possess the ability to give birth. During sleep, our souls travel and reach a special realm where this becomes possible. People who generally do not see dreams – their souls either rise too high (travel too far) or descend too low during sleep. Dreams often show us what is happening in reality, but in a symbolic way – trying to awaken in us the awareness that we need to protect ourselves in daily life. This is one of the ways in which guardian angels or spiritual guides communicate with us.

The Feeling in the Dream – the emotional sensation within a dream is critically important for understanding its message. If we experience a negative feeling, then in most cases the dream does not foretell good – though there are exceptions. If we experience a positive feeling, the dream usually does not predict anything bad. If the dream brings neutral emotions, there may be no significant message about future events – the subconscious may simply be processing daily experiences.

For example, according to Swapna Shastra, if your body was itching in a dream, it likely means that in waking life there is something you are dissatisfied with or something that causes you anxiety.

When Not to Seek Dream Interpretation: when we see situations that are completely unrealistic, or when we see people from the past with whom our connection has long been broken or minimal.

It is possible that we see them because something significant is happening in their lives, and residual energetic cords still exist between us – or because they thought of us, or we thought of them before sleep.

Not every dream indicates that something will happen to us personally; sometimes dreams foretell events affecting our relatives or acquaintances.

Sometimes we simply do not remember the dream – this means it holds no importance and arose only due to mental activity.

At times, only certain details remain vivid – these may carry meaning. Dreams of greatest significance are clear and vivid and remain imprinted in memory after awakening.

Dreams and Relationships

Dreams of Betrayal

A dream in which your partner cheats directly points to betrayal or harm from his side – disrespect, neglect, or manipulation intended to use you.

There is no logical reason to dream of someone hurting you if everything is truly fine in reality.

Something is likely hidden beneath the surface, and you will discover it soon.

It can definitely be said – this is not just a dream.

Foul smells, insects, or other repulsive elements in the same dream where your partner appears may foretell a breakup caused by his deceitful behavior.

According to Swapna Shastra, dreaming of a person who injures you suggests that this individual may be your hidden enemy. Do not be afraid to confront him if necessary.

Partner Appearing Ill in a Dream

A dream in which your partner appears sick or unwell – especially if he is healthy in real life – points to a serious problem he actually has; possibly mental or behavioral.

Perhaps you have not yet noticed it, but you have probably missed several red flags or previous nimittas that tried to warn you about him – now they simply show you that he is “spoiled,” the most obvious way being his image as a sick person.

Dreaming of an Ex After a Long Time Apart

If you broke up with someone long ago and suddenly dream of him again (perhaps dreaming that you are still together, or he is wandering somewhere), this indicates that energetic cords between you still remain and must be cut.

It is advisable to perform a ritual of cutting energetic ties with this ex; otherwise, it will block your progress in relationships and may even prevent you from meeting a suitable partner.

In essence, he is probably still draining your energy – consciously or unconsciously.

An Ex Chasing You in a Dream

A dream in which someone pursues or harasses you is an especially troubling red flag.

Here too, it is recommended to perform an energy-cord cutting ritual.

In some cases, the ex may try to reconnect in real life, and even if you have blocked him everywhere, he may still find ways to disturb you.

If you have cut off all access and still dream that he chases or threatens you, it may mean he is trying to make you regret leaving, to pull you back energetically, or to steal your energy and abundance.

Often, such dreams suggest that the man has psychological disturbances if he causes you to see him this way.

It is advisable to consult a medium or witch to check whether he is attempting love spells, bindings, or other forms of black magic out of revenge – especially if you feel sudden emotional fluctuations or unusual health sensations (for example: problems related to the menstrual or urinary system, difficulty breathing, the feeling of “something” on the head, abdominal pain, depression, or uncharacteristic mood drops).

If you dream that an animal or stranger is chasing you, and you wake up suddenly or force yourself awake – everything is fine.

The soul knows when to return to the body if it senses danger.

Sometimes astral entities pursue souls during sleep with the intent to harm them, but the soul has its own defense mechanism – therefore, there is no reason for fear.

According to Swapna Shastra, a cow chasing you may foretell an enemy pursuing you.

An Ex Crying in a Dream

The interpretation of a dream about an ex who is crying should be related to what is happening in your waking life.

If you have met someone new and are at the beginning of a relationship, within the coming days you may encounter strange or absurd behavior from the new man.

Perhaps your dream featured the crying ex because you were the one who initiated the breakup, and afterward he tried to provoke jealousy – now he appears as a negative omen, foreshadowing some odd behavior from men in general.

Dreams of Exes in General

Sometimes, a dream about an ex who once caused you pain arises as a warning about a current situation.

The subconscious remembers that this person was “bad,” so his image reappears as a symbol of danger.

Dreams of kissing or embracing can reflect longing for the feeling of being in love or being in a relationship – even if, in reality, you neither miss nor think of the person who appeared in the dream.

Common Dreams

Water in Dreams

Water may appear in dreams in many forms – sea, pool, rain, ocean, stream, river, lake, or simply water itself.

The meaning depends on what happens and the accompanying emotions.

In general, dreams involving water indicate emotional surges or imbalance.

According to Swapna Shastra, A boat on calm water – a good dream. A boat in stormy water – a bad sign.

Falling into water – danger.

Ocean – interpretation depends on the weather: stormy sea – problems; calm water – peace and serenity.

River – like the ocean, meaning depends on its condition: calm flow – tranquility; flooding – danger.

Water in general – if expecting a child, it may foretell an upcoming birth.

Weather and Natural Phenomena in Dreams

According to Swapna Shastra, Gray clouds – sadness, but if the clouds are moving, sorrow will pass and better times will follow.

Traveling through a desert – a tiresome path, but if the sunlight is warm and pleasant, the journey will be successful.

In general, dreams of travel symbolize change; if the journey is pleasant – a good sign; if unpleasant – possible difficulties.

Earthquake – warns of loss, quarrels, heartbreak, or fear.

Flood – for business people, great sales; for others, possible illness or unfavorable situations.

Rain – if gentle, it signifies peace, blessing, abundance, emotional cleansing, and financial gain from an old or forgotten source; if heavy – possible domestic troubles.

Thunder – may foretell danger or a major problem with no help available.

Volcano – possible violence.

Accusations and Anger in Dreams

Sometimes we may see people from the past who appear angry with us – such as former colleagues, even if our relations with them were neutral.

This may happen because someone new has replaced you at your former workplace, and that person now faces difficulties with colleagues in areas where you once succeeded.

According to Swapna Shastra, dreams where you are falsely accused depend on your behavior in real life: if you are a disciplined person – the dream foretells positive change; if not – it may indicate unfortunate circumstances ahead.

Food in Dreams

According to Swapna Shastra, Bread – a good omen, symbolizing success; eating bread – long life and strong health; but burnt bread – a very bad dream.

Butter – a symbol of luck.

Dinner – may foretell enemies trying to ruin your reputation and the need to choose friends more carefully.

Drinking nectar – symbolizes wealth or marriage to a prosperous and attractive person.

Relatives in Dreams

In general, dreams about relatives come before a specific event or before meeting them.

The meaning depends on what happens in the dream and on the relative’s real-life behavior.

Sometimes a dream in which something negative happens to a relative may warn of a similar real-life situation.

According to Swapna Shastra: A dream about the father – good omen; but if something bad happens to him in the dream, it may foretell a difficult situation in his life.

A dream about the mother – well-being; but if something bad happens to her, it may foretell an unfavorable event for her.

Recurring Dreams

Dreams that repeat again and again carry an important message for you.

If you continue to ignore such a dream, you will keep seeing it.

It likely points to an area of your life that is out of balance – and your spiritual guidance urgently wants you to pay attention and make changes.


Neutralizing Bad Dreams

If someone has dreamed a good dream, it is better not to tell anyone about it. Sharing a positive dream with others may interfere with its fulfillment. If someone has dreamed a bad dream, there are mantras that help neutralize its influence, as well as mantras that help prevent the appearance of disturbing dreams.

Below are several examples of mantras dedicated to various deities – of course, there are many more in existence.

Mantra to Shiva – Protection and Purification

Om Namah Shivaya

This is considered a universal mantra for dispelling fear, negative energies, and bad dreams.

Mantra to Narayana (Vishnu) – Protection During Sleep

Om Narayanaya Namah

Traditionally recited before sleep or after a negative dream; it brings a feeling of safety and stability.

Mantra to Durga – Strength and Overcoming Fear

Om Dum Durgayei Namah

Protects consciousness and eliminates threatening energies.

Mantra to Hanuman – Courage and Removal of Negative Entities

Om Hanumate Namah

Especially suitable for those who experience dreams of being chased, attacked, or haunted by dark entities.

General Mantra for Peaceful Sleep (from the Vedic tradition)

Om Shanti Shanti Shanti

Simple and soothing – it invokes peace for the body, soul, and surroundings.

It is recommended to repeat a mantra 11 or 21 times in the morning after a negative dream. 11 repetitions is the minimum, but it carries strong energetic power, connected with the lunar day number Ekadashi (11th day) – associated with Vishnu, symbolizing purification and liberation. This is the day ruled by the energy of 11 – Rudric energy, representing the dissolution of illusions, renewal of body and soul, and deepening of spiritual connection.

In Indian mythology, it is said that Shiva created the 11 Rudras (various emanations of himself) while attempting to help in the creation of humankind. However, since he could not create mortal beings, the Rudras remained immortal, like the other gods.

From that time, Rudra has been associated with the number 11 – symbolizing dissolution, purification, and the removal of fear or illusion. Therefore, repeating a mantra 11 times in the name of Lord Shiva can help cleanse and dispel the effects of bad dreams.

21 repetitions is considered a sattvic (blessed) number – a smaller cycle that activates the energy of the mantra without creating heaviness.

If someone experiences a series of disturbing dreams or wishes to regularly protect their sleep, they may repeat the mantra 108 times. Daily repetition of mantras helps one to better understand divine guidance and messages.

If a dream leaves a very strong emotional impression, it is recommended to light a candle or incense, recite a mantra, and ask for the dream’s influence to be nullified.

The very act of uttering the mantra aloud changes the energy and cuts through the dream’s impact due to the vibration it creates in the space and in the body.

It clears the residual echo of the dream and introduces a new, harmonious resonance.

This is especially effective if the mantra is pronounced immediately upon waking, when the consciousness is still half in the dream world and half awake – for example, if someone wakes suddenly from a nightmare and recites the mantra right away.

It is important to note: when you dream that someone harms you, it likely means that this has already happened behind your back or is being planned – and you may soon discover it.

Mantras can help you withstand the emotional impact more peacefully, but they cannot always prevent the manifestation of such a dream in reality.


Keeping a Dream Journal

In the Vedas, it is believed that dreams are one of the channels through which Higher Consciousness, and at times even devas (celestial beings), communicate with human beings. A journal allows one to preserve these messages. Keeping a dream journal can help strengthen dream recall (for those who tend not to remember their dreams), release emotionally heavy or unpleasant dreams stored in memory, and aid in working with the subconscious.

The journal helps recognize hidden fears, repressed desires, and intuitive insights. It also helps to track signs (nimittas): a single dream can be confusing, but when a sequence of dreams is recorded, one can notice repeating patterns – symbols, colors, places, or recurring characters that carry a message.

Recording dreams allows one to see how they connect to daily events, relationships, health, or major decisions.

It is recommended to record a dream the same day so as not to forget the details, and to note the date. It is important to include whether there were any special symbols or close people present, and also when you woke from the dream. Later, you can record what happened afterward – to check whether the dream was fulfilled, and if so, how much time passed between the dream and its manifestation.

Not every dream comes true within a week; sometimes it may take a month or even several years.

The 12th House in the Natal Chart and Dreams

The 12th house in the natal chart is connected not only with past lives, solitude, and death, but also with dreams and intuition.Additionally, the 12th house is one of the moksha houses. If the 12th house is well placed in the personal chart, the native will have developed intuition, the ability to receive information from collective wisdom, and a strong sense of empathy. Such individuals may have a healing gift or work as counselors, therapists, or spiritual mentors.

It should be remembered, however, that the 12th house also brings challenges and is considered a comparatively dark house.

To develop intuition and receive accurate messages from the Universe requires great patience – but it will be rewarded through higher spiritual awareness.

In relationships, when assessing compatibility between two partners, it is worth examining the 12th house in both charts.

A harmonious connection through this house may indicate the partners’ ability to feel and understand each other emotionally and intuitively, even without words – or to finish each other’s sentences – which directly points to a deep soul bond.

The Sign in the 12th House and the Nature of the Native’s Dreams

12th House in Aries (ruled by Mars)

Dreams filled with action: conflicts, chases, battles, fire, blood, war, apocalypse.

Much movement, jumping, and a sense of danger.

Bizarre, surreal dreams beyond logic, set in strange locations.

Sometimes violent nightmares where the dreamer fights or is being pursued.

People with this placement may frequently experience nightmares in childhood.

12th House in Taurus (ruled by Venus)

Dreams about home, food, romance, money, shopping, wealth, and beauty.

Many sensual elements – smells, colors, and tastes.

Dreams may tend to repeat under this placement.

Sometimes dreams involve loss of property or connection.

12th House in Gemini (ruled by Mercury)

Dreams filled with conversation, writing, movement, books, or documents.

Often, dreams in which one receives information or a hidden message in verbal or written form – a note, letter, email, or phone message.

There may be few people in such dreams; if faces are indistinct, they can at least be heard clearly.

12th House in Cancer (ruled by the Moon)

Extremely emotional dreams involving family, children, mother, or the childhood home.

Many water symbols of varying intensity – pools, seas, or rivers.

Dreams are generally soft, sometimes troubling or strange, and often spiritual with messages.

12th House in Leo (ruled by the Sun)

Dramatic dreams – kings, leaders, celebrities, stage, fire, bright light, crowds, large buildings, foreign places.

The dreamer may appear at the center of attention or bearing a heavy burden.

There is a greater tendency toward melancholic dreams than nightmares, and many with this placement dream rarely or do not remember their dreams.

12th House in Virgo (ruled by Mercury)

Dreams of work, routine, order, or health.

May involve cleanliness, body care, or everyday tasks.

Flying, swimming, travel, large buildings, people with unusual appearances, or even aliens – futuristic dreams are possible.

Such people may experience intense, detailed, “technical” dreams, like movies, and often lucid or vivid dreams.

12th House in Libra (ruled by Venus)

Romantic dreams, interpersonal relations, balance, beauty, and aesthetics.

Dreams about pleasant companionship arising from a deep longing for warmth.

Sometimes dreams of ex-partners or unfinished relationships, or searching for a partner.

Nightmares are rare, but when they occur, they can be highly realistic.

12th House in Scorpio (ruled by Mars)

Intense, apocalyptic dreams full of mystery, death, and transformation.

Many snakes, caves, water of varying intensity, deep waters, high waves, darkness, nights, or places of entrapment.

Sometimes prophetic or mystical dreams.

Nightmares may occur if Uranus or Pluto are in Scorpio and connected to the 12th house or its ruler.

12th House in Sagittarius (ruled by Jupiter)

Dreams of travel, teachers, temples, ancient wisdom, adventure, and journeys.

May involve learning or receiving spiritual instruction.

Tendency toward clear, prophetic dreams, déjà vu, or simply strange dream experiences.

12th House in Capricorn (ruled by Saturn)

Cold, empty dreams with a feeling of heaviness or restriction.

Possible dreams of travel through abandoned places or buildings.

Dreams may be detailed and connected with hard work, duty, aging, or scarcity.

A person’s work may “follow” them into their dreams.

Symbolic dreams are also common.

12th House in Aquarius (ruled by Saturn and Rahu)

Unusual, futuristic, or bizarre dreams that make the dreamer reflect on the state of their subconscious.

Often accompanied by a sense of weight or intensity. Filled with crowds, technology, flight, stars, and space.

Sometimes a collective dream is shared by many souls.

Nightmares may involve large groups of people.

In short – these dreams are often more interesting than waking reality.

12th House in Pisces (ruled by Jupiter)

Deeply mystical dreams – visions, deities, endless waters, escapism, and random, symbolic imagery not always possible to interpret.

Strong tendency toward lucid, prophetic, and profound dreams – as though the person watches a film while sleeping.

Such individuals are connected to other worlds, though sometimes they dream merely because their mind never truly rests.


When the ruler of the 12th house is placed in another house, the nature of dreams can take on the characteristics of that house.

For example, if in a natal chart the 12th house is in the sign of Virgo, and its ruler Mercury is located in Scorpio, the native may have detailed, vivid dreams that tend to come true – and through them, they may even uncover the intentions of enemies attempting to cause harm. A 12th-house ruler in water signs enhances intuition and prophetic dreaming.

In general, the position of Mercury has a strong influence on dreams – its placement may also indicate the tone and nature of dream experiences. For example, Mercury in Scorpio can bring dreams set in nighttime scenes.

The Sun represents day, while the Moon represents night.

The nighttime itself is divided into three parts: Rahu, Saturn, and Ketu each rule a different portion of the night. Rahu governs the period from sunset to midnight, Saturn governs the midnight hours, and Ketu governs the hours before dawn.

Because of this, the planets that most strongly influence nightmares are Rahu, Ketu, Saturn, and the Moon.

Therefore, if these planets cast aspects upon the 12th house in the natal chart, they can cause disturbing dreams or nightmares. However, Ketu does not necessarily bring nightmares; it can also bestow spiritual or mystical dreams.

The sign of the Moon can likewise affect the nature of dreams.

For example, a Moon in Cancer may bring dreams about the childhood home – as well as everything described earlier in the context of dreams by zodiac signs.

Additionally, a planet located in the 12th house can also influence dream imagery: Venus in the 12th house may bring dreams of food or relationships. Chiron in the 12th may bring nightmares. Rahu in the 12th – dreams of astral entities. Mars in the 12th – dreams of physical violence. Saturn in the 12th – dreams of responsibility, stagnation, and heaviness. Sun in the 12th – indicates rare dream activity or difficulty remembering dreams, since the Sun governs the daytime.

A stellium (three or more planets) in the 12th house may point to various sleep disturbances.

It is also important to pay attention to which planets cast aspects on the Moon, Mercury, the 12th house, and the ruler of the 12th house.

Sometimes planetary transits can trigger dreams of certain types when they pass through the 12th house or another house that aspects it.

For instance, when Mars transits the 12th house, this period may bring dreams of aggression or violence.

The D30 Trishamsha chart is a divisional chart that reveals misfortunes and hardships.

Examining the 12th house in this chart can help identify difficulties or afflictions that affect the native – even during the state of dreaming – and can shed light on the nature of their dreams and nightmares.

Spiritual dreams or dreams involving spiritual beings are associated with the influence of Mercury, Jupiter, and Ketu upon the Moon or the 12th house.

Additionally, the 9th and 12th houses in the D20 Vishamsha chart (the divisional chart representing the spiritual path in one’s life) can be analyzed to understand the nature of the spiritual dreams the native may experience.

## Intuition as a Filter – Antar Nimitta


While nimitta most often serves as an external tool for receiving messages from the Universe, intuition is an inner instrument that helps us filter what we experience in reality.

Intuition is an inner voice, an instant feeling that arises before logic.

In practice, to interpret a nimitta correctly, one must rely on intuition; otherwise, the process remains purely technical – almost like checking the meaning of a word in a dictionary.

Intuition can be developed through meditation and mantra practice.

Types of Intuition

Emotional Intuition – the “gut feeling,” an immediate sense of right or wrong.

A feeling of fatigue, stagnation, or laziness that is unusual for you, or pressure in the abdomen “for no reason” right before going somewhere or meeting someone, may indicate a negative intuitive signal about that meeting.

Example: You plan to visit an apartment for rent or purchase, and a few minutes before leaving, you are suddenly overcome by an unpleasant, strange feeling.

Half an hour later it turns out that the number of rooms is fewer than advertised, the apartment is located inside the owners’ home, and the condition is poor, even though the photos showed recent renovation.

If you are sitting and talking with someone (for example, on a date or at a job interview) and suddenly feel discomfort or tension – as if your hair isn’t in place, prompting you to fix it – this is a very bad sign regarding the other person.

Something in their energy or behavior is disordered or dishonest.

Other sudden sensations that may be manifestations of intuition include:

tension, anxiety, a sudden drop or rise in mood, joy, heaviness in the chest, and similar physical or emotional shifts.

Sometimes difficulty falling asleep (accompanied by a strange feeling) occurs right before something unpleasant happens – or we may wake up in the middle of the night just before an event takes place.

Mental Intuition – a thought or idea that arises suddenly.

At times, even during the first date, within moments, the thought may surface: “This is not my man.” Such intuitive feelings should never be ignored – intuition never lies.

Sometimes we predict something before it happens – a situation or someone’s exact words – and this indicates strong intuition.

Energetic Intuition – sensations or impressions about people, places, or situations.

You know that feeling when you meet someone for the first time and something “murky” about them feels off, even though you can’t explain why?

But because you don’t want to seem judgmental “without reason,” you give the person a chance – and later realize that your initial feeling was absolutely correct.

Certain places with strong energies can also affect sensitive people, causing extreme stress upon arrival or otherwise influencing them energetically – almost like portals.

In some cases (though not always), it is possible to identify such places in advance for a specific person using Vastu or astrocartography (which will be discussed in later chapters).

Spiritual or Inner Intuition from the Subconscious – messages received through guided visualization or dreams (discussed in the previous chapter).

What Can Block Intuition?

Intrusive thoughts, stress, fatigue, external noise, fear of decision-making, insecurity, and influences from others – such as emotional manipulation or energetic interference (“energy noise”) – can all create obstacles and blocks to intuition.

Self-care, mindfulness, and inner work on both the emotional and spiritual levels help prevent these blockages and strengthen our trust in intuition – allowing us to hear it more clearly and follow its guidance attentively.

Common Mistakes

Incorrect Interpretation

It is not always easy to interpret intuitive sensations correctly.

In some cases, the way our mind understands things slightly differs from how the body communicates them.

One thing, however, is certain: the body always sends signals and warnings when necessary.

Sometimes we believe we have fallen in love with a man because we feel “butterflies in the stomach,” a sense of elevation, as though we are about to spread our wings and fly, or we suddenly “hear music in our head,” or feel as if we are “in another dimension” with someone.

The problem is that, in most cases, these are actually body signals warning of danger.

Therefore, it is crucial not to “turn off” the mind and to pay attention to how the other person truly behaves toward us – calmly and objectively.

What the body actually meant at that moment: “Butterflies in the stomach” = illness; A feeling of flight = you should “fly away from here”; Music = alarm (a request to seek shelter); A sensation of “another dimension” = trap or prison (a sign that you should begin planning your escape).

When everything is truly fine in reality, intuition does not start signaling or creating strange sensations in the abdomen.

There is simply peace, quiet, and calmness when being near someone or somewhere that is right for you.

Forgetfulness

Another mistake is to recognize everything correctly yet fail to remember that you must remain cautious afterward and not forget this recognition.

Signals are not one-time events.

If an intuitive sign manifested in a certain way the first time, there is no reason to think that the next time you feel the same thing (regarding another person or place), it will mean something different – because your filter (intuition) has not changed.

Similarly, if several things are broken in one place, it is likely that much more is broken there too.

Example: A group of men – if one of them is inclined to cheat, at least two others in that group are probably the same.

Confusing Fear with Intuition

In some cases, people tend to mistake fear for intuition.

If you feel fear toward something, it does not always indicate an intuitive perception.

If the feeling of fear is not accompanied by a real confirming sign that justifies the concern about the frightening situation, then it is likely not intuitive fear.

Most likely, it stems from a phobia or preconceived notions about that object or situation.

Excessive Emotionality After Various Sensations

If you feel something negative toward someone but have no evidence yet, don’t raise an alarm!

Example: If you dream that your partner is cheating, don’t start an argument until you have proof.

Because if he really is cheating, he will either deny everything and hide it better, or create a scene himself, accusing you for the accusation – saying something like, “How could you accuse me of such a thing?!” And if he is not cheating, he will deny it as well, and in any case, you gain nothing.

Moreover, you should not panic over every negative sign or grieve because of it. If something is meant to happen, it will happen – and most of the time, it is beyond our control. We must learn to accept life as it is and go with its flow.

Signs That Your Intuition Was Correct

After making a decision (for example, whether to go somewhere or not), if you feel peace and calmness – this is an excellent sign!

Later, repeated confirmations will appear in reality, showing that the decision was right.

And finally, there will come an inner sense – sometimes long afterward – that you indeed did the right thing.


## Relationship Compatibility According to Indian Astrology


“What’s your zodiac sign?”

Many women, at the very beginning of getting to know a man, ask this question with excitement and curiosity – only to immediately reject him upon discovering that he is a Virgo, while they are Gemini, and, after all, Virgo “isn’t compatible” with Gemini… They believe they “need” someone of the Air element. Or at least, that’s what they think.

The problem is that this is an extremely superficial test that says almost nothing about the other person. In many cases, the intuition may indeed be correct – he isn’t “the one” – but not because the poor man was born in the “wrong month.”

The only true way to understand whether he is “the one” or not is to judge by how he treats you.

And if you feel confused – that’s already a clear sign he definitely isn’t your man; moreover, his presence is likely blocking the path to your future husband.

But if you have only just begun dating and are tired of “crazy” or overly clingy men, it’s worth learning how to recognize red flags in the earliest stages of a relationship – and stop wasting your precious time on “spoiled” types.

Personally, I recommend casting a natal chart (both his and yours) exclusively according to the Indian (Vedic) horoscope.

Why? Because it has already been scientifically proven that it reflects the exact and true planetary positions in the sky.

Moreover, it is an ancient system, existing for thousands of years – and it has never failed anyone.

It is so accurate that it can even seem frightening. Each time I opened a man’s natal chart, I eventually realized that the failure of the relationship had not been accidental – and that the breakup could have been foreseen.

That’s why, after recognizing red flags early on, one must never “compromise” or hope that “things will somehow work out,” simply because “nobody’s perfect.”

Yes, nobody is perfect – but it’s far better to be happily single than trapped in a relationship with an unhappy partner.

Today, there are countless tools for building healthy, harmonious relationships – and Indian astrology is one of the most reliable among them.

Before analyzing any man’s natal chart, you should first deeply explore your own.

This helps to understand your karmic patterns and the kinds of challenges you may encounter.

Consequently, you’ll learn what can be done – at the very least, to change your attitude toward the men you meet, and at best – to learn how to choose wisely the one who truly suits you.

Before I present real chart examples, I must clarify: to determine someone’s suitability astrologically, you cannot judge by a single placement.

You must thoroughly analyze the entire chart and only then draw conclusions – and, of course, I will repeat – judge above all by how he treats you.

Synastry

Compatibility between two natal charts is evaluated through several factors: the planetary influences one partner’s planets cast upon the other’s; comparison of D1 (Rasi) and D9 (Navamsa) charts; Nakshatra (lunar mansion) compatibility; and a number of specific yogas (planetary combinations).

Compatibility Between Planets in Different Houses

The more cases where the same planet in one partner’s chart is located 5–9 houses apart from that same planet in the other partner’s chart, the higher the compatibility potential.

Example: One partner’s Venus is in Sagittarius, and the other’s Venus is in Aries – that is, five houses apart in one direction and nine in the other.

However, in many cases this alone is not sufficient to guarantee compatibility, love, or a lasting bond.

It may only indicate that “something will happen” – but not necessarily something positive. Sometimes this pattern signifies that one person compromised because the other managed to temporarily satisfy them. One must look carefully at all possible details.

By contrast, when several planets are 6–8 houses apart between the two charts, this often indicates a fundamental mismatch apparent even in the early stages of the relationship. The gap is almost impossible to bridge, as each partner desires a type of behavior or affection that the other simply cannot provide.

Example 1: A man with Venus in Taurus tries to invite on a date a woman with Venus in Libra. The Libra-Venus woman needs everything to be beautiful, refined, cultured, and respectful. The Taurus-Venus man, although he has excellent taste in women (after all, he chose to invite a beautiful lady), makes a serious mistake in how he invites her. Not only does he ask her out “right now,” for a rather late meeting (around 10 p.m.), but he even specifies which slippers he intends to wear – slippers that, in her view, look hopelessly unattractive and utterly unfit for a date.

When she points out that it is inappropriate to set up a meeting so unexpectedly – and at 10:30 p.m., when she’s already getting ready for bed – he replies that “it’s not that late” and that “there’s a first time for everything.” Naturally, the date never happened. Perhaps another woman with Venus in a different sign would have agreed to a sudden late-night meeting – but certainly not Mademoiselle Libra.

Example 2: Another interaction between a Venus-in-Taurus man and a Venus-in-Libra woman: He takes her for a walk in nature (probably one of the few things they have in common). The Taurus-Venus man, like a child, marvels at every mushroom or flower they encounter – and there are many – pausing at each one, admiring it as if he had never seen such things before. He examines them like museum pieces of art and then exclaims with satisfaction, “Cyclamens…” – with deep soulful peace (where I live, these flowers are quite common). By the second time, the Venus-in-Libra lady has to restrain herself from rolling her eyes.

Then they sit on a bench to enjoy the view. Nearby on the ground lies some trash and disposable dishes. Without hesitation and without gloves, the Taurus-Venus man decides that this is his life’s mission and begins to clean it up, which utterly disgusts the Venus-in-Libra woman. Then he expresses extreme views, justifying population reduction and blaming large families for polluting the planet.

The Venus-in-Libra woman shudders at these words – she believes in karma and knows that no soul is born without purpose, and the mere thought of a person deciding who should live and who should not terrifies her. Of course, it’s important to care for the environment, but it’s impossible to control everything everywhere (and who says the litter was left by a large family?).

Naturally, not every Venus-in-Taurus man behaves this way, and certainly there were other factors in his chart that enhanced such mannerisms.

Still, the more planets are 6–8 houses apart in synastry between two people, the more awkward and absurd situations of this kind tend to occur.

The D9 Chart

In Indian astrology, there is the main natal chart (D1) and numerous divisional charts.

One of the most significant among them is the Navamsha (D9) chart, which represents the nature of marriage, the spouse, and self-realization of the chart holder.

When evaluating compatibility, it is essential to analyze both the D1 and D9 charts of both partners.

There is a common belief that if the D9 chart of Partner 1 is “similar” to the D1 chart of Partner 2 (meaning most planetary positions coincide), the couple has a strong potential for a long-term relationship, possibly leading to marriage and family life. However, this appears to apply only when there is mutual resonance (a kind of “cross-link” between the charts). If only one partner’s D9 overlaps with the other’s D1, while the second partner’s chart does not reflect this connection, the latter is likely to sense the imbalance and eventually slip away from the relationship.

Moon Compatibility

One of the most crucial indicators of compatibility is the relationship between the natal Moons of both partners.

If there is no harmony between their Moons – whether by sign or Nakshatra (constellation) – it indicates a connection lacking emotional balance and mutual sensitivity.

I would recommend Ilana Lib’s book “Nakshatras,” which offers excellent explanations of each Nakshatra and a clear matrix of relational dynamics between them. The interpretations in that work are consistently precise and aligned with real-life experiences.

Just like the Moon, the Ascendant sign also plays an important role – it is advisable to check compatibility by both sign and Nakshatra as well.

Sometimes, the Moon of Partner 1 may fall in the same sign or even the same Nakshatra as the Moon of Partner 2 – potentially indicating deep emotional understanding.

However, aspects and conjunctions with other planets can completely alter this picture.

For example, if one partner’s Moon is conjunct Mars in the same house – the Moon + Mars conjunction in anyone’s natal chart is a black flag. We will discuss this in greater detail later.

Common Problematic Configurations in Synastry Between Two Partners

Partner 1’s Moon + Partner 2’s Mars in the same sign or aspect

Drama, ugly quarrels, power struggles, emotional – and in some cases physical – wounds are just part of what to expect from such a connection. At first, there seems to be strong attraction, but the relationship quickly turns strange and unstable.

The Moon person – the more sensitive side – does not know how to cope with the aggressive attacks of the Mars person. Each outburst cuts like a knife from an unexpected direction.

Mars, being a malefic planet, seeks to control and exploit the Moon’s emotional vulnerability, violating dignity and personal boundaries at every opportunity.

There is no mutual understanding; their needs are completely different: the Moon person longs for tenderness and care, which Mars by nature cannot or does not wish to give due to his aggressive disposition.

Partner 1’s Venus 6–8 houses apart from Partner 2’s Mars

These are highly challenging relationships, full of appeasement, manipulation, and emotional dependency. This configuration can lead to abuse, toxicity, or even danger.

One partner may attempt to isolate and control the other’s life or conceal deceitful or harmful intentions (for instance, Venus in Sagittarius for Partner 1 and Mars in Cancer for Partner 2).

A few days after separation, the Venus person often feels immense relief, realizing they have escaped an “irritant” that they previously could not identify clearly due to emotional overload.

Partner 1’s Rahu/Ketu on Partner 2’s Moon (same sign)

This indicates a heavy karmic connection accompanied by emotional turbulence. Sometimes it is seen as a sign of possible marriage, though not always.

If they marry, they will find it hard to part; if not, the separation may be painful and lingering, even when it’s clearly for the best.

Rahu creates an illusory smoke screen of obsessive energy, confusing the Moon and making the Moon person believe they are in love.

Partner 1’s Rahu/Ketu on Partner 2’s Venus (same sign)

Venus–Rahu: Rahu here clouds Venus’s clarity. There may be an illusion of love, distorting one partner’s perception of reality. They are unable to see things as they truly are, even when presented with facts. One partner may be materialistic, seeing the other as a “doll.”

Such relationships rarely lead to anything real (apart from physical attraction) and often end in scandal and betrayal.

If the Rahu person is a man, he is unlikely to remain faithful to the Venus person – he will constantly seek “more women,” especially if insecure or motivated by material gain.

Venus–Ketu: This may indicate a connection from past lives, but it often brings emotional difficulties.

Conflicts arise due to opposing desires – one seeks romance and pleasure, the other distance and detachment.

The outcome is uncertain; most often it suggests a short-lived relationship. Additional factors in both charts must be analyzed for a full picture.

Partner 1’s Rahu/Ketu on Partner 2’s 1–7 House Axis

A karmic bond often found in married couples.

There is an unconscious attraction to partners who may seem unusual or eccentric.

Balance between individuality and partnership is crucial to avoid issues with self-identity and relationship definition. If both partners decide they are together, they must remain faithful and committed, not justify unfaithfulness with the idea of an “open relationship.”

Such a bond is worth pursuing only if there is true love and proven trust. Disillusionment may follow initial idealization, leading to instability, misunderstandings, and misplaced criticism. The only way to improve such a connection is through mutual spiritual awareness and conscious work on the relationship, along with individual spiritual practice.

Partner 1’s Pluto + Partner 2’s Moon (same sign or aspect)

A particularly heavy – sometimes deeply karmic – connection that may leave one partner psychologically traumatized. The attachment is intense yet destructive, and separation is painfully difficult despite the problems.

There is emotional blindness to manipulation, domination, and vulnerability.

Explosive arguments arise out of nowhere.

Partner 1’s Pluto + Partner 2’s Venus (same sign or aspect)

This pair is filled with passion and intensity, but such relationships can end in heartbreak, exposure, and collapse.

Separation may feel like a black hole in the heart. Such couples often reunite again and again after breakups – they struggle to cut the energetic ties.

However, one must learn to let go if the relationship is destructive.

One partner may be clearly dominant. It is advisable to remain in such a union only if both maintain balance, maturity, and seriousness in the relationship.

Partner 1’s Pluto + Partner 2’s Mars (same sign or aspect)

This combination often breeds ego games, aggression, and even violence – verbal or physical. A dangerous configuration where at least one partner dominates excessively.

If either has behavioral issues or tendencies toward aggression, the situation is highly serious, and such relationships are strongly discouraged from the start.

Partner 1’s Saturn + Partner 2’s Mars (same sign or aspect)

Mars wants to act in a certain way, but Saturn restricts him.

The problem arises when Saturn’s restraint comes from differences in values, which Mars refuses to accept or understand. For the Saturn person, it’s a waste of time to enter a relationship lacking axiological (value-based) and spiritual compatibility.

Partner 1’s Moon/Venus + Partner 2’s Mercury (same sign)

This can bring lively communication and even pleasure in the relationship (especially Venus–Mercury), but it rarely indicates long-term union.

Such romances often end within a few months – typically under half a year.

The Time When You Met

Regardless of both individuals’ natal charts, planets in the sky never stop moving – they continue to transit from house to house and trigger situations. The transit chart shows directly whether the time is favorable for romantic encounters.

When the timing is unfavorable, even if you meet someone, they won’t be right for you.

A person may appear who, if you overlook their major flaws early on, will cost you precious time and emotional energy. It’s crucial to be aware of what’s happening in the sky while keeping your feet firmly on the ground.

Sometimes people believe that when Jupiter transits the 7th house, the woman may meet her future husband or get married – but that’s not always the case. Possible reasons include: other planets are not positioned in houses conducive to marriage; the current planetary period (Dasha) does not support relationship formation; or Jupiter’s Ashtakavarga strength relative to that transit is weak.

For example, if Jupiter transits through Taurus, which is the woman’s 7th house, but in her Jupiter Ashtakavarga chart Taurus scores below 4, the chances of meeting her future husband during that transit are extremely low – even if other planets seem favorable.

The number indicated in each sign in the Ashtakavarga chart represents how many “liters of fuel” the planet has in that sign/house: 1 or close to 1 – “the tank is almost empty,” 4 – neutral, 8 – “the tank is full” – the planet has enough energy to manifest the transit’s promise.

Sometimes, a planet may transit a sign with a low score in the Ashtakavarga, yet the event still manifests – this happens due to planetary aspects from other signs that hold higher scores and reinforce the outcome.

## Patterns in Your Horoscope


What Truly Attracts Certain Men to You – and the Gaslighting of “Reality Manifestation” Coaches

In our time, it has become extremely trendy to “manifest reality” – to decide what you want and then “attract” it through various techniques (writing something down, thinking about it, or, conversely, not thinking about it, etc.).

To be honest, these methods do not always work, especially when no actual energetic or magical application is involved. This is not necessarily because such techniques are bad – on the contrary, some are quite positive.

There are indeed cases when a few of them do work, thanks to: supportive planetary transits, our correct attitude or behavior in a given situation, or simply because certain events are destined to occur.

The real problem with this “manifestation” industry begins where all kinds of so-called “coaches” or “mentors” start handing out advice like: “Listen to this sound, and he’ll call you,” or shifting all responsibility for a woman’s life onto her with lines such as: “If you’re not in a relationship, it means you don’t want it enough,” “Something in you attracts the wrong men,” or other primitive formulas like: “You just don’t know how to build relationships with men, that’s why you’ve ended up doing everything yourself – now you’re so independent.”

All these statements are directed at women without any genuine understanding of who they are, and without any professional psychological evaluation. Such “mentors” never pause to consider that there are forces beyond what a person consciously wants or does. It is not simply a matter of wanting or not wanting – that notion is deeply misleading.

That very “something” which attracts the wrong men is not necessarily your fault. Yes, perhaps there is some inner work to do; perhaps you simply need to learn to choose better and stop compromising – to stop wasting your time (and that is precisely why I am writing these words now). But perhaps it’s also time to understand, through your natal chart, what kind of men you are naturally inclined to attract – until the right one finally appears.

In a woman’s horoscope, Mars represents the partner or lover, while Jupiter represents the husband. By analyzing the positions of Mars and Jupiter, along with: the 5th house (which, among other things, relates to romance and emotional connections), the 8th house (the house of intimacy), and the 7th house (the house of marriage and partnership), you can begin to understand why you have encountered men who weren’t truly right for you – and what will continue to happen if you keep holding on to men of that same type.

Mars

Mars + Rahu Conjunction – Angaraka Yoga

Rahu amplifies the demonic nature of Mars.

This is an extremely tense and volatile combination, bringing with it great power, impulsiveness, and intense passion, but also a strong tendency toward outbursts, obsessiveness (intrusive, uncontrollable thoughts), and violent quarrels when things go wrong.

It may lead to relationship instability or infidelity on the part of men. (Infidelity here does not necessarily mean a physical act with another woman; it refers to any form of betrayal or harmful deceit.)

The influence is even stronger when this yoga aspects the fifth house.

A woman with this configuration may attract unusual, unpredictable, or violent men – manipulative, emotionally volatile, and with a hidden aggressive side that eventually surfaces once they feel comfortable enough to reveal it.

In extreme cases, she may encounter men without moral values, with criminal tendencies, or those who make promises and create illusions of effort or devotion – only for it to later become clear that it was never sincere.

In some cases, such men refuse to let go, engaging in stalking or obsessive monitoring long after the connection has ended.

If you have this conjunction in your natal chart and begin to feel nauseous after arguments, or if unpleasant events happen soon after spending time with such a man, or you feel physically unwell – this is a clear sign to run.

It is said that when Mars or Jupiter are in conjunction with Rahu, one possible remedy for the chart holder is marriage to someone from a different culture, which can neutralize part of the negative influence – provided, of course, that other factors in the chart also indicate such a possibility.

Mars + Sun Conjunction

This placement shows a tendency to attract dark, power-based connections, and may be associated with sadism and masochism, dominance games, and a love of control.

Girls with this conjunction in their natal chart may have been aggressive or confrontational in childhood, picking fights or being irritated by trivial things. They may display anger toward other girls and show signs of bullying behavior. There is a risk of abuse – both giving and receiving it. For example, such a girl might laugh when someone falls or gets hurt, yet if she herself is scolded or corrected, she will withdraw and cry.

The type of men this placement attracts are those who enjoy playing with others’ emotions, wasting women’s time, and using them. Such a man might convince his partner that they are “not ready yet” for marriage, even after several years together – and she will agree, out of fear of being alone. For her, being alone feels like failure. This type of man will make her work hard in the relationship, compromise excessively, or forgive the unforgivable.

Women with this placement who are in relationships with such men may experience illness or energy depletion.

Their feminine essence does not blossom, and their values in love become distorted.

If any additional planet joins this Mars–Sun conjunction, the effects become more severe.

Mars + Moon Conjunction – Chandra Mangala Dosha

This conjunction is considered a dosha – a serious flaw in the natal chart. The Moon represents emotions and the psyche, while Mars represents fire and war.

Together, they create an inner storm, hypersensitivity, or a lack of empathy, extremes, drama, and emotional volatility.

It may lead to emotional instability in relationships or attraction to partners who behave in such ways – unstable, moody, impulsive, and at times deriving pleasure from hurting others.

Mars in Cancer

Cancer is the sign of Mars’s debilitation (governed by the Moon), which makes Mars very weak here.

There may be difficulty expressing desires clearly, a tendency toward hypersensitivity and suppressed irritation, which sometimes bursts out unexpectedly.

Emotional imbalance can “castrate” the men involved with such a woman – or, from the start, she may be prone to attracting weak or dependent men.

Men drawn to her may be overly emotional, dramatic, sentimental, or exhausting to deal with.

A woman with Mars in Cancer may also have a tendency toward envy of other women and may unintentionally destroy female friendships.

Retrograde Mars

A person (man or woman) with retrograde Mars often carries deep internalized anger, which leads to disappointment, lack of motivation, laziness, and a habit of shifting responsibility to others.

There may be dependence, or a tendency to seek help instead of taking independent action.

At the same time, there can be strong jealousy toward those who succeed.

Difficulty in self-expression can lead to delayed achievements or even harm to others. There may be frustration related to sexuality, insecurity, or strange and aggressive behavior in romantic relationships.

Such a person may miss opportunities due to anger, fear, stagnation, or apathy. They prefer to believe that success will “fall from the sky” rather than work for it.

Laziness can also manifest in learning – they avoid acquiring skills independently, expect help, and once they receive it, they may “stab in the back” and twist the story to appear as a victim, seeking to achieve a false “victory” through deception and manipulation, when they clearly don’t deserve it.

If Saturn in the chart also does not indicate discipline, the person may suffer from chronic lateness, act as though oblivious to their own faults, and constantly believe that “the world owes them something.” They often shift blame to others.

However, if someone with retrograde Mars has even a minimal level of self-awareness, they can balance this blocked energy through deep spiritual and physical work – meditation, sports, yoga, and similar practices.

As long as they avoid falling into a negative mindset and instead choose a direct, kind, and disciplined path, they can achieve great success.

Moon and Mars at the Same Degree

In this case, the Moon and Mars don’t have to be in the same house – but if they share the same degree, they automatically cast a full aspect upon each other.

Wherever they are placed, this can signify relationship difficulties, involvement with unfit, offensive, or toxic people.

For example: if the Moon is at 10° in one house and Mars is at 10° in another, without considering minutes, this aspect exists and can indicate conflictual emotional dynamics and unhealthy attachments.

Venus

Ketu + Venus Conjunction

Detachment, inner emptiness, and a sense of dissatisfaction in relationships. Difficulty committing fully or truly feeling love – and, on the other hand, difficulty leaving or distancing oneself when a connection is unhealthy. Lingering resentment toward ex-partners who have left. A tendency to attract emotionally unavailable men (sometimes with violent tendencies), who avoid commitment or are capable of simply disappearing without explanation.

Sun + Venus Conjunction

When the Sun blinds Venus, it both enhances beauty and talent (especially when Venus is close to the Sun in degrees and in certain signs) yet destroys relationships.

Men may be drawn to such a woman for her looks but enter into exploitative or superficial relationships.

She must learn to choose men more wisely, allowing them to truly prove their sincerity and good intentions before entering a romantic connection.

Saturn + Venus Conjunction

At best, this placement brings delayed relationships or marriage, because Saturn tends to slow down whatever it touches. There may be emotional coldness, difficulty expressing feelings, and a sense of dryness or limitation in relationships.

It can also signify a lack of pleasure in romantic connections.

Venus in the 8th House or as the Ruler of the 8th House

The eighth house governs sexuality, crisis, secrets, and power.

Venus placed here may indicate karmic, turbulent relationships marked by jealousy, obsessive dynamics of “push and pull,” infidelity, and connections that bring both intense passion and pain.

Venus in the 6th, 8th, or 12th houses often signifies complex relationships, emotional suffering, hidden matters, or financial issues – and the partner may experience similar difficulties.

Venus in Earth Signs: Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn

A need for security, stability, and practicality, sometimes at the expense of genuine feeling or romance.

In Virgo (Venus’s sign of fall): criticism, unrealistic expectations, materialism, and difficulty expressing emotions.

In Capricorn: excessive seriousness, rigidity, discipline, and emotional restraint.

In Taurus: possessiveness and attachment.

A woman with Venus in Taurus may – if supported by other planetary factors – spend her twenties waiting for a wealthy man with a luxury car and a degree, as though those things guarantee generosity.

She might reject someone simply because he lacks a diploma, ignoring his personal qualities.

By her thirties, under social pressure and the fear of time passing, she may become a “pick-me” woman – willing to lower her self-worth just to be chosen, even trying to “buy” a man in order not to be left alone or without a child.

If she grew up only with her mother and without a father, she may subconsciously hold the belief that “a man is needed only to have children – and that’s all.” This attitude can draw career-driven yet emotionally cold, calculating, and exploitative men that criticize her.

Atma Karaka Venus

The Atma Karaka is the planet with the highest degree in the natal chart. If this planet is Venus, the person’s soul lessons lie in the realm of love and relationships. Such individuals are often drawn to unworthy or incompatible partners, serving as catalysts for spiritual growth.

Through pain and loss, they learn to release attachment and avoid clinging to destructive relationships.

Retrograde Venus

Those with retrograde Venus express love in an unusual and often misunderstood way. The root cause may be insecurity or low self-esteem, though outwardly they may seem confident.

A woman with retrograde Venus breaks traditional dating rules – she might take the initiative, make the first move, or openly express interest. However, many men interpret this as a lack of self-worth, not as confidence, and lose attraction. As a result, she may experience short-lived romances or attract emotionally damaged partners. No one has ever seen an egg swim toward the sperm – until they meet a woman with retrograde Venus.

At times, immaturity and the fairy-tale dream of marriage can drive such a woman into the wrong relationships or make her obsessed with marriage at a very young age, when her life is just beginning.

After marrying and starting a family, she eventually realizes that love is not as simple as she imagined.

Her life lesson is to learn to love herself as she is, instead of seeking a man to fill her emotional void.

Jupiter

Jupiter in Earth Signs: Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn

Like Venus in Earth signs, Jupiter in Earth signs seeks material security and growth through practical means, but it may be emotionally or spiritually limited.

This restricts the natural sense of expansion, faith, and ease in relationships.

Men whom a woman with such Jupiter placements attracts are often focused on material success, yet less emotionally sensitive and unlikely to pursue deep or soulful connections.

Capricorn is Jupiter’s sign of debilitation; therefore, a woman may attract a man who is far from her ideal partner. In such cases, it is important to check Jupiter’s position in the D9 (Navamsha) chart and the D7 (Saptamsha) chart to see his full characteristics from all angles. If Jupiter’s positions are better in these divisional charts, the situation is not necessarily as dire.

Moon Positioned 6–8 Houses Away from Jupiter

In a woman’s chart, this placement creates an inner conflict between what she believes to be “right” and the kind of men she actually chooses throughout her life. She may compromise with unworthy partners, which later leads to difficulty trusting others in relationships.

The paradox is that she chose them herself, even if she hoped everything would turn out well.

With time and experience, however, she learns to choose better and more consciously.

General Placements

Ruler of the 5th House in the 8th House

The 5th house symbolizes love, romance, and creativity. When its ruler is placed in the 8th house, love often passes through crisis, secrecy, or painful transformation. It may be difficult to experience lightness or simple joy in relationships, because the men she attracts often carry emotional baggage and are not necessarily loyal or transparent.

Condition of the 7th House

When the ruler of the 7th house resides in challenging houses (6th, 8th, or 12th), it can indicate difficulties in relationships and, in some cases, divorce or financial complications and debts accumulated during marriage.

It is crucial to ensure that the partner has no loans or debts before marriage, and in any case, it is highly recommended to sign a prenuptial agreement to protect oneself financially.

Indicators of Possible Loneliness in the Natal Chart

There are several signs that may point toward a tendency for solitude; to draw conclusions, it is necessary that more than one of these factors be present:

Dara Karaka = Mercury: The Dara Karaka (planet representing the spouse) is a genderless planet, which may reduce emphasis on partnership.

Kemadruma Yoga: When the house before the Moon and the house after the Moon are both empty, the Moon stands alone in its house and receives no benefic aspects – this yoga can foretell loneliness or isolation.

Stellium (three or more planets in one house): Can indicate difficulty finding a suitable life partner in some cases.

Rahu in the 4th house: May bring emotional isolation or a feeling of not belonging.

Saturn in the 7th house: Leads to delayed marriage and prolonged solitude, even if the person is attractive to others – relationships simply fail to progress.

Moon in the 12th house: The person tends toward seclusion, feeling most comfortable alone or in retreat.

Chiron

The position of Chiron in the natal chart reveals a deep, hard-to-heal wound that originates from past incarnations. In one of these lives, the person was wounded in some way and never fully recovered or moved on. In relationships, this manifests as repetitive experiences of emotional pain, rejection, or insecurity.

Men who appear in such a woman’s life often trigger that very wound, so that she can learn to rise above it and heal differently this time.
