Astrology and Human Relations (With emphasis on Marital Relations)
Chapter 1
What is a relationship? Well. Just take a look at this statement-When someone treats you like an option, leave him like a choice! How does it sound like? Today’s world would warrant you to leave everyone like a choice since we are seasoned enough in our times to consider all parameters only like options. If someone is interested to treat a person, a meeting or an acquaintance in terms of human dynamics, backgrounds, troubles and tribulations, emotional features and puts ‘relativity’ into its proper perspective, there is a certain enriching meaning in diving deep into the structures and functions of a relationship-a kind of a bonding which modern day phraseology describes as ‘body chemistry’! Human nature is sometimes vivid and often too complex to understand. Astrology places these aspects related to society on three fundamentals:
This can be interesting. If I would say that the symptoms and leading lights of how an individual would form, sustain and break a relationship depended largely on the way these vital forces perform in the mind of the person, that precisely can be a take away so to say! I do not intend to place a horoscope in front of you straight away and start explaining the nature of these three as drawn from the planetary permutations and combinations appearing in the horoscope. Quite to the contrary, placing the practical situations in life and deducing the planetary influences would certainly be a profitable idea. I am reminded of a ripe old man in my neighbourhood who used to stand by the gate of his house just when I used to pass by. ‘I am here young man…’, he would say, seeking my attention. I stopped and he would open the gate slowly. Knowing that he wouldn’t let me go, I followed him and took the lonely chair meant for ‘lonely’ visitors like me. Curiously enough, the television screen was always studded with action scenes-Bruce Lee or Sylvester Stallone blasting away. He brought the regular tapioca chips which were quite tasty and poured the tea for me. ‘Were you an action lover in your prime?’, I asked. ‘Yes. But never made it.’ ‘What would that mean?’ ‘I always wanted to move into action-I had it all planned to the last detail but when the time was there to go for it, I do not know why I hung up. Look here…’ He was showing the photos lined up on the wall. ‘Have you seen them?’ ‘Your family I suppose’ ‘Yes. Not just my family. Many were my colleagues, my bosses, friends, foes and so on and so forth!’ ‘Nice collection.’ ‘Yes. I contemplated action against all of them but did not.’ ‘They escaped.’ ‘Sort of. But I am now sitting back and thinking about them. No regrets…but all part of my memory which is biting me daily…wow! That’s the way to smash…’, he was looking at the television.

Well.. Here we are…that’s a lot of food for thought. We shall dissect the feature ‘action’ at the turn of the page…
