GURU IN MESHA RASI
गणानां त्वा गणपतिं हवामहे कविं कवीनामुपमश्रवस्तमं। ज्येष्ठराजं ब्रह्मणां ब्रह्मणस्पत आ नः शृण्वन्नूतिभिः सीद सादनं॥ (Rigveda Mandala 2-Sukta 23-Rik 1). We invoke you, Brahmanaspati, chief leader of the (heavenly) bands, a sage of sages, abounding beyond measure in (every kind of) food, best lord of prayer, hearing our invocations, come with your protections and sit down in the chamber of sacrifice". The above mantra used as avahana mantra for Lord Ganesha is actually the mantra related to Brihaspati also known as Brahmanaspati. Prayers to Brihasptati, His description appear largely in Mandala 1, 2, 7 and 10.  Only one sukata (No. 50) is dedicated to Brihaspati in Mandala 4. In Mandala 5 and 3, the references to Brihaspati can be found at Sukta 43 and sukta 62 respectively.

Here are some examples: अनर्वाणं वृषभं मंद्रजिह्वं बृहस्पतिं वर्धया नव्यमर्कैः। गाथान्यः सुरुचो यस्य देवा आशृण्वंति नवमानस्य मर्ताः॥  [1-190-1] - Priest, augment by your hymns Brihaspati, who deserts not (his worshipper); the showerer (of benefits), the pleasant tongued, the adorable; of whom resplendent, god and men (the ministers) of the institutor of the sacrifice, emulous in sacred songs, proclaim (the praise).
Guru transits in mesha rasi, from 22-Apr-2023 to 1-May-2024. While in mesha rasi, guru is combust till  27.04.2023 and is retrograde from 05.09.2023 to 31.12.2023. Guru is overpowered by Ravi during combustion and effects alter, depending on the role of Ravi in birth chart. During moudhya (combustion) period no auspicious functions like vidyarambha are held. But guru moudhya is not given sufficient importance as shukra moudhya. Transit of Guru in 2nd, 5th, 7th, 9th and 11th from chandra rasi goes under the name, Gurubala which triggers good events provided there are no planets in vedha namely, in 12th, 4th, 3rd, 10th and 8th respectively from chandra rasi.
Asttottara shatanamavali is used to do floral pooja after abhisekha. Mantra, stora, kavacha and asttotttara shatanama stotra are for recitation. These mantras are at par with each other. Out of these kavacha and asttotttara shatanama stotra are easy to recite.

Those who do not relish orthodox religious ways or idolatry should take up service of elements that represent Guru like feeding cows, helping orphans, reading regularly (parayana) of any religious texts like Psalms, Bhagawad geeta, Grantha Saheba, Quran or any biography of a great person you like. It is always better to visit Temples, Churches or Mosques etc., People born in mithuna rasi and simha rasis MUST visit places of worship regularly (say once a week) and also spend some time offering their manual service in temples. It is mandatory for them. People of other signs may also visit temples, surely God will not throw them out!

This is the worst transit for kanya rasi persons and bad transit for vrischika rasi persons; they should take up remedial measures like recitation of guru beeja mantra or gayatri mantra (any one of these, depending on time available and inclination), minimum 21 times a day. This site offers various mantras that can be used as remedial measures, in Kannada, Sanskrit, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Bengali, Punjabi, Gujarati, Oriya and English.  More
 
Remedial Measures
 
Namaskara mantra and peedahara mantra can be recited any time and any where and they do not require specific dress etc., Gayatri mantra and beeja mantras should be recited in special dress, early in the morning after bath in empty stomach. Minimum recitation may be 21 times but should not exceed 10,000 times a day. Compared to gayatri mantra, the beeja mantra is more powerful but ensure you would not go wrong in pronunciation. Avahana mantras are used to invoke the particular deity into a picture, kalasha or yantra and conduct pooja. Those people who are accustomed to do pooja procedure will find it easy. Worship of navagrahas is not black magic, you need not harbor any reservations.
Guru in 10th in the Indian Independence chart
 
This is the transit in 10th from rasi of foundation chart that makes the country very significant in the world scene. Prime Minister becomes more pronounced and certain parliamentarians assume, he is responsible for clog in drainage in front of their houses. On national, international media and on imperial platforms of various academia they ask, what the prime minister is doing! And also see a plot, an onslaught on democracy.

On international stage, India is given considerable importance, it has to take very measured decisions in dealing with several conflicts. Unfortunately, such efforts do neither bring good trade links nor support against the enemies but merely accomplish a good name. Added to this, such great fame does not impact on local citizens and will not help in coming elections. Considering elections early next year, the ruling party works hard and such name gives boost to party workers.
BJP is more pragmatic and distances itself from sensitive issues. The government woks hard making long term fiscal policies and changes to social codes. India imparts know-how in various matters to neighbours and to countries in far east and in Horn of Africa. Unfortunately, the same countries do not acknowledge the help. There is lot of moral commitment and the relationship with all the countries will improve. Frauds, scams and phone tapping are not heard. There are no problems such as epidemic, as vaccinations are able to take head-on with the virus.

From mesha, guru aspects his natal position in foundation chart. So far BJP was confident in playing cat and mouse with the opposition. Due to minor money troubles, sickness in the party, lack of clear new ideas, it doubts whether it has understood the pulse of the nation. There will be turn coats - some going out and some coming in, demanding a pivotal place. Party holds itself back in fear and diffidence.

This transit gives sufficient edge over the opposition and it runs out of all ammunition to attack to ruling party. In the mean time, people forgive the lapses in financial sector, adani fireworks, electric meters and other issues. This transit gives success by luck and by efforts, focus on long term investments, wealth yielding policies and building up considerable foreign reserves. In the coming lokasabha elections, ruling party stays to power. If elections are held before April 2024, there are some impediments but BJP will continue to rule Delhi darbar. If they are held after April, it becomes even more easy and BJP gets a monumental majority. It should be noted that the tenancy of 16th lokasabha ends in May and elections may be spread over in several phases from April to May.
These days the war cry of 'khatam kardo' is echoing from Telangana, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, costal Kannada Nadu, Punjab and Delhi. This is taking an expression of 'getting rid of' a person by violent means. There is no danger to Prime Minister and other important persons in government at all! How unfortunate people say, democracy is dying in India while they want to do away with an elected person and call for foreign help! Some people do not mature even past middle age; They do not look down in shame to examine their tools engaged to win!

This is the worst transit for kanya rasi and it is the rasi of grand old, out of date congress. The ultra modern liberals on JNTU and such podiums become less and less. There is skyrocketing upsurge of patriotism that engulfs high pitched howls. The new contender to power, the BRS the coming days are disappointing, as it is 8th lord chandra dasha in its chart.  However, guru in 4th gives success to some extent provided enormous efforts are deployed. BRS has a good chart with a bad timing of 8th lord's dasha. It has a narrow escape from flying to oblivion!

Hence, God gives you all these - as and when needed - in abundance.

He may even hint a financial reward in very evasive terms! If you put all your might and do fall headlong into the schemes of robbing your skills, it is but suicide. You are supposed to give discourses on one's duties while you want to elaborate on rights! You are put on a wild goose chase and you know it would not work. You should ensure that your dealings are honest, make a record that comes useful. The employer, banker will readily sanction your advances with affordable terms.

You are called on to head fact finding missions as you are recognized for your wisdom and impartiality. Financial position is excellent. Good progress in education, purchase of properties and happiness of all sorts. When guru is combust, there will be lot of work pressure and you may doubt your own ability.
 
Kanya: 

Guru in the 8th has greater impact on your life, you will remember the bitter and sweet experiences for many years to come. This transit causes change, regeneration and failures in all walks of life. Yet, you are not give up for dead; when the water in the high seas rise to your neck level, you are sent a rescue boat. With some caution, you can sail through without any harm.

Financial position is very bad. You may get some inheritance and income or a financial support from other sources. The financial help comes unexpected and without strings as you feel you can never rise again in life! Whatever gold and grain you have may simply evaporate. There is spiritual retrospection and this leads to firm faith in God. There is increased interest in occult sciences. Many people are banished by their family and seek to flourish far far away. There is lot of pain in the heart as you are misunderstood by your own mother and close relatives.

Even if you do not believe in God, intuition and spiritual awareness guides in the form of enigmatic dreams, which restore your faith in God. You may be diagnosed by a strange health condition which is not diagnosed by many modern tests and doctors. Have patience, meet a seasoned and experienced doctor - the cure is easy and at hand. This is the time when a non-believer in you leaves and a firm believer rises. The faith you discover is everlasting. Many people revert from gyms, ball dance and jeans to yoga, bharatanatyam and dhoti!

As a matter of fact, you were more willing to change your life - to start a new life somewhere near horizon. There is emotional fulfilment and joy that it is happening now. Also, you have lost hop and self-esteem as you feel oppressed. You are exhausted with too many problems. There is new beginning, optimism and trust in yourself and God by the end of the transit. You are not going to hang your self nor your shoes but like a snake you will shed the old skin! You must recite mantras, slokas or stotras of your choice for guru and also visit temples frequently.
 
 
 
Financial is excellent. There will be health issues, mounting expenditure and loan related problems. Some people overspend and land in trouble by the end of the transit. There could be obligatory expenditure like sister's or daughter's marriage. Ensure, you should you do not spend more with false prestige. Care is required in handling precious objects; you may loose them or suffer thieving. Stay clear of any litigation, arguments or legal interpretations, particularly with your boss.

If you have a problem, make a plain appeal for help without quoting from the handbook of rights and duties. Minor struggles and friction in the office seems to be big ones. You may run away in search of something better but find you in similar circumstances. Escapism will not solve but you should have patience. By the end of transit the same job turns out to be better. The persons who disliked you become close associates! You must recite mantras, slokas or stotras of your choice for guru and also visit temples frequently.

Good health. Service problems, if any, are solved. There is increase in your influence and popularity. Promotions and all the benefits from the employer are sure to happen. When Guru is combust, there is heavy expenditure and dwindling income, negative thinking and self pity.
