Shri Nitish Kumar was sworn in as Chief Minister of Bihar for the fourth time on 22-Feb-2015 at 17:00 PM in Patna, Bihar. This was necessitated by his party-mate Shri Jitan Manjhi resigning from the post. The source of the time of swearing in is this Twitter photo from ANI news. Continue reading
Shri Raghuvar Das or Bhartiya Janata Party took oath of office as the new chief minister of Jharkhand on 28th December 2014 in ceremony that was held in the state capital of Ranchi. The details of the ceremony to create a kundali/horoscope are as follows. The source of this is television news stories and screen grabs. The time seems to be chosen carefully by astrologers and is very clear by the yogas that are there in the chart.
Date: 28th December 2014
Time: 11:20 AM, Time zone: 5:30 East of GMT
Place: Ranchi, Jharkhand, India (23°19’ North, 85°17’ East)
Panchanga of the day shows Sunday – governed by Sun, denoting royalty, government. tithi was Saptami, Nakshatra was Uttara Bhadra, Yoga was Variyan and Karana was Vanij. Once again, it proves that time was carefully chosen as Karana would change in another hour. Panchanga for the event does not show any dosha.
The panchanga is generated for the week of 28th December through 3rd Jan 2015 taking the reference of Bangalore, India. All days that do not conform to “panchanga shuddhi†principles will need to be avoided. Again, Sun remains in Saggitarius and by the principle of Guru dosha, if you can avoid, avoid any good muhurtas till Makar Sankranti day
If you are looking for specific time/details for your place, then you should use the panchanga applet on this page – panchanga.html. The table below explains how to read the changes. Take the case of Tithi for example:
| Tithi | Start Time |
| Prathama | Start of the day at 12:00 AM |
| Dvitiya | Starts at 3:45 PM |
The Tithi at the start of the day, i.e. at 12:00 midnight is displayed. The second, if any, indicates change in Tithi at the time. In the above example, it means that at 12:00 midnight, the tithi was Prathama and at 3:45 in the afternoon, it changed to Dvitiya. In other words, Tithi from the start of day till 3:45 PM was Prathama and the tithi from 3:45 PM till the end of day would be Dvitiya.
Planetarypositions.com is a serious astrology site. I do believe in the science and art of astrology. However, I also believe in free speech and respect the opinions that are expressed on internet and on the media.
Over past few days, Mrs. Smriti Irani has been in news for the wrong reasons. She visited an astrologer and asked about her future. This is what TOI has to say on the story:
Along with her husband Zubin Irani, the minister had on Sunday gone to visit Pandit Nathulal Vyas at Karoi village in Bhilwara, Rajasthan. According to TV reports, in her four-hour long meeting with Vyas, Irani reportedly asked several questions on her political and personal future and also thanked the astrologer for his correct prediction.
The new Chief Minister of Goa took oath of office on Saturday, 8th November 2014 at 4.00 PM in Panaji, Goa. I did not watch the television to note the exact time, but this site mentions that the ceremony was supposed to start at 4.00 and the newsflash came in at 4.05 PM that he is the new CM of Goa. Quoting from the website: “4:05 pm: Laxmikant Parsekar is the new chief minister of Goa. He has just been administered oaths of office and secrecy by Governor Mridula Sinha.”
I have not had time to work on the horoscope yet. I will do that shortly. I am just copy-pasting the http://www.planetarypositions.com/weekly-panchanga/2014/11/01/weekly-panchanga-2nd-nov-2014/.
The two BJP chief ministers of Haryana and Maharashtra were sworn in this week. Oct/Nov is not a good time for new governments coming in since Venus & Saturn are combust throughout – but government formation cannot be in limbo just to wait for a good/auspicious timing. In the given circumstances, the astrologers have done a reasonable job in pegging the muhurta. The details are as follows:
Shri Manohar Lal Khattar was sworn in on:
Diwali will be celebrated on 23rd October 2014 all over the world. The good timing, i.e. Muhurta for Dipavali depends on the Panchanga of the day and also the lagna when Lakshmi Poojan can happen. Apart from this, Bombay Stock Exchange and National Stock Exchange will be open for approximately 75 mins for Muhurat Trading from 18:15 PM through 19.30 PM.
I got this message from a friend of mine about an article in National Public Radio website – In India, Science And Astrology Comfortably Coexist.
It is an interesting article from Western perspective, but it is nothing new in India. Quoting from the article:
It is not uncommon in India to find highly educated people from accomplished professions becoming astrologers.
The kundali of Shri Narendra Modi taking oath as 15th Prime Minister of India at the Rashtrapati Bhavan is attached. The swearing in ceremony started just after 6:00 PM when the President of India came down the stairs. As soon as he came down, his permission to begin the ceremony was sought. Immediately after, Modi came to the stage and took the oath of office in Hindi. The basic details are:
Place: Rashtrapati Bhavan, New Delhi (28.6143° N, 77.1998° E), Time: 6:11 PM, Date: 26 May 2014. Libra lagna – Not Scorpio, lagna does not change till 6.15 PM.
I hadn’t found time to work on the website for quite some time now. This was very evident from the frequency of posts, not allowing comments etc. During this time, I did purchase a lot of books, but hadn’t reviewed them on the site under this list – Vedic Astrology Books.
