Indeed, the word for

aspect of the divine – or
“hakti”.” While, hiva, the
masculine impulse in the

hakti that transforms spirit

In Brihat Parasar Hora

“Abounding in Vata and

Kapha and filled with
knowing is the
Moon of round bod, O’
Twice Born, auspiciousl
eed, of sweet
speech, fluctuating and
love sick.”

age Parasara is talking to

the “Twice Born”, or one
who has been re-born
through initiation into the
stud of the Vedic
criptures. He describes
the un as “square” and
moon as “round bodied”.
The square shape of the
masculine energ gives it
steadfastness, consistenc,
and the abilit to take
determined action. On the
pschological level the
masculine energ provides
stabilit and on the spiritual
allows the soul to be safel
anchored in spirit. In
contrast, the “round
bodied” moon describes
the feminine nature of our
psche, which rolls around,
changes directions and like
the moon changes shape
everda. While, the un
responds to permanence
and b sticking to its
principles, the moon
responds to feelings and
emotions and remains
open, receptive and
flexible.

The un is depicted to

have “hone colored ees”
and the moon is as
“auspiciousl eed”. The
golden hue of the un’s
ees signifies a spiritual
nature, and sweetness of
hone smbolizes that the
masculine energ sees the
world with compassion and
caring. Often, we associate
nurturing with feminine
energ but in realit it is
health masculine energ
that protects the more
vulnerable. The feminine
energ on the other hand is
depicted as “auspiciousl
eed” and with “sweet
speech” – it sees the good
in all things and unlike the
masculine energ accepts
what is without needing to
act. Instead, the feminine
energ brings solace and
comfort through sensitive
speech.

The sage describes the sun

as having “intelligence”, the
knowledge acquired
through a rational process
to arrive at the Truth. The
moon on the other hand is
portraed as filled with
“inner knowing” and
therefore looks inward for
answers. Instincts, intuition
and perception are the
domains of the feminine
energ.

The masculine energ of

the un is described as
“Pitta” natured, which is
fueled b the Fire element.
The fire element is
courageous, initiating, and
dnamic. The negative
traits we associate with the
masculine energ like
anger, domination, control
and power result from an
afflicted un in the
horoscope. In other words,
the less the soul is
anchored in spirit the more
it will displa unhealth
egoist masculine traits.

The moon on the other

hand is “Vata and Kapha”
fueled b the Air and Water
elements. The water
element gives the moon
the abilit to love, forgive
and take pleasure in rest
and tranquilit. The Vata
aspect of the moon helps
initiate change and
movement. If the moon is
afflicted in the horoscope it
is ver difficult to be
receptive to life and find
peace and contentment;
the kapha (water) will lead
to depression and over
emotionalit and the vata
(air) to endless thinking and
worring – negative traits
we often associate with the
feminine energ.

The sage describes the

un as having “little hair”
smbolizing the un’s need
to keep things ordered and
controlled. Long wind
blown hair, which is harder
to manage and pin down is
associated with the
feminine energ.

Finall, the moon is

described as “lovesick”. In
the horoscope, the un is
our universal soul and the
moon the individualized
consciousness on earth,
which is desperatel
seeking union with the
divine on the spirit level.
On the phsical level, it is
the feminine energ in us
that is relationship centered
and shuns being alone. The
solar energ is quite
complete in the self and
content to be on its own,
but the feminine energ
requires “the other” to be
complete. It is for this
reason that in the
horoscope the moon is the
most important factor in
Vedic compatibilit.

Each of us, are a

combination of masculine
and feminine energ.
However, men will almost
alwas have more of the
masculine characteristics;
simpl because their
phsiolog dictates higher
testosterone levels and
women will have more
feminine characteristics, as
their phsiolog is guided
b estrogen. Beond the
biolog both genders have
varing degrees of
masculine and feminine
energ.
Relationships between two
people naturall incline the
more solar energized
person to be drawn to the
lunar energized person to
balance the two energies.
From the Vedic Astrolog
perspective this is the law
of Karma and the partner
ou attract in our life,
regardless of
circumstances, will be
dominated b the energ
ou are deficient in. The
less balanced our
masculine or feminine
energies the more extreme
partners will come into our
life.

The trouble arises when we

see the masculine or
feminine as superior to the
other. All over the world,
since medieval times, the
feminine energ and
women have been
demoralized and seen as
inferior to the masculine
energ and men. This has
caused so much suffering
and torment; especiall in
India the ill treatment of
women has left a deep scar
on the land of Yoga and
enlightenment.

Men and women have to

develop and embrace both
sides of their nature. One
cannot be balanced without
the other; each of us must
make space for the other in
our life, especiall through
our partnerships. Vedic
compatibilit seeks to bring
two people together who
can have this smbiotic
relationship with each
other.

Make peace with the male

energ within ou. Don’t be
afraid to be resolute,
principled, and take noble
action. Make peace with
the feminine energ within
ou. Don’t be afraid to
receive, adapt, trust, rest
and meditate.
