Prediction for Rahul Gandhi
Rahul, born on June 19, 1970 at 5.50 am has been Jyesta Nakshtra whose sign lord is mercury.
The moon, in the case of Shri Rahul Gandhi falls in Nakshtra of ‘Jyesta.’ The ‘Jyesta’ word symbolizes being the eldest. It also signifies umbrella, which gives protection. The personality of the native can be summarized as, “a sense of arriving or becoming.” The energies of those born in this Nakshtra are channelized with great importance given that everything they do should be perceived by others in the right perspective. They usually mature quickly both physically and mentally. They have a steak of revenge and a vindictive tendency. More over, they have a strong competitive spirit and have the ability to be protecteve towards the weak, subordinate, helpless and unprivileged. Depression can set in, when the circumstances don’t allow constant activity of some kind. In the case of this horoscope, mercury is the main planetary ruler of the Nakshtra and here all energies get refined and controlled to become focused on the mind, which is represented by Moon. Mercury, an intellect guides the moon and such people are born to take care of the masses.
The native (Rahul Gandhi) has completed his 35th year and entered 36th. Jupiter, therefore, in rotation, is in Sagittarius. Jupiter in the 3rd round from the period 36 to 48 (Jupiter to stay in Sagittarius for 12 years as per Bhrigu Nandi System) shows an excellent and an overall period, which would be very good of its kind and can be rated as ‘First Class’. Jupiter is in its own house with Saturn in 5th from it, which empowers the person to act and take big steps. The depositor of Jupiter is in the 11th from its sign, which signifies gain, though there would be pins and pricks as it is in its inimical house of Libra. Jupiter is also aspected by Sun and Mars, which will provide political position and aggressive manner in performing activity, acts, deeds and accomplishing things within time frame. The only negative aspect is Venus being in the 8th house from rotated Jupiter, which governs issues of emotion, love, marriage and these would be areas, where dissatisfaction would prevail, issues will be unresolved, needs and problems will be unfulfilled. I am however, restricting my predictions/analysis on the professional aspect and the periods which would give glory in his career.
Coming to the specifics, by end of August 2005, my view is that the individual will not seek for position but will have meticulously planned out in terms of relating to the masses. This is because of transiting Jupiter in Virgo and its lord Mercury, which is 9th from its transiting position, 6th from the rotated Jupiter and the lord of Mercury that is Venus is in Cancer (signifies masses), and Ketu ahead (signifying details with Sun and Mars) to Venus in the house of Mercury signifying working towards concrete plans with the authorities for the welfare of the masses.
Thus, my view contrary to the media reports that Shri Rahul Gandhi would join the government or take a political position may not happen but will work towards planning the details and making the authorities, those in power for empowering the party and thus focusing on the essence and substance as the main central and essential part for the core of nation.
From August 2005 to July 2006 will be a period, where his prestige will increase. He will, however, devote a lot of his energies in handling issues, which are not directly related to his Central or Core objective. Nevertheless, during this period, he will emerge as a leader.
The period of 2007 to 2008, I would not go in details as it is in this period he will consolidate himself and take actions in removing people/re-organizing the set-up around. This would have its own share of problems but set the foundation for the future.
The year 2008 and 2009 will be the turning point and here he will be bestowed upon a very high position with authority and power directly held. This is because of the aspect of Sun and Mars on the transiting Jupiter, which is also the place were rotated Jupiter is stationed and has the aspect of Sun and Mars. This is the starting point of a great career and future for the native and would have a lot of achievements and credentials for himself for the next two and a half years.
This is my analysis based on my understanding of the Bhrigu Techniques as deciphered.
To conclude, I must say that the horoscope clearly indicates prestigious position coming after hard work and planning. The position of power and authority arrives in the year 2008 but caution should be exercised in terms of avoiding accidents.
My research and statistics shows that Jupiter retrograde in Libra, marriage and issues allied to it are not really in control and a hidden hand guides and scripts the life.

sex ratio
Millions of girls are missing from Indian population. The sex ratio of the country has altered consistently in favour of boys. And the country fails to prevent the social stigma of infanticide and foeticide. According to the alarming facts and figuresavailable
Nearly 40 million girls are missing from the Indian population. According to the data compiled by Registrar General of India, child sex ratio is 927 females in every thousand males as on census 2001. The ratio was 945:1000 in 1991. The figure has dropped significantly from 976 girls in every thousand boys in 1961. In some parts of the country, the sex ratio has dropped to less than 800:1,000.
The sex ratio in India has altered consistently in favour of boys since the beginning of the 20th century. Its effect has been visible in the states of Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Chattisgarh, Maharastra. In Delhi the statistics is defunt. In the capital city, out of 1000 children 816are girls. In Delhi’s ultra well-to-do localities of South Delhi and West Delhi, the child sex ratio is a shocking 762 and 784 respectively as reported by the Municipal Corporation of Delhi in 2004. Other zones of the Capital have a ratio no higher than 850.
India is failing to prevent large-scale female infanticide and foeticide, according to a UN report. As a result, says the UN’s World Population Fund, India has one of the highest imbalances in the world between males and females. The Fund says that the low status of women in Indian society is mainly to blame, and criticizes of India for its lack of commitment to tackling gender inequality.
More generally, demographers warn that in the next twenty years there will be a shortage of brides in the marriage market because of the adverse juvenile sex ratio, combined with an overall decline in fertility.
From 1981 to 1991 one crore males were in need of females. At present 37 millions males are in need of females. If the trend continues in the next 10 years nearly 14 million from the productive age group woman will be missing and 23 million males will look for partners.
According to media report young girls from Assam and West Bengal are kidnapped and sold into marriage in neighbouring Haryana.
The alarming facts and figures carry a signal, which is crisp and clear. The sex ratio in India is topsy-turvy. Sex determination tests are illegal but common. Even many families abort female fortuitus to avoid the load of dowry. It’s not just poor rural families, foeticide is even rampant amongst some rich urban families.
Yes the scenario even looms larger. If the trend continues, India will witness a catastrophe, when the female foeticide has felled the female population like the Bollywood film “Matrubhoomi,” a group of barbaric sex-starved men in Bihar marry one woman and brutalizing her night after night.
This may be a figment of a Bollywood film-maker Manish Jha’s imagination, but the necked truth is not far away. Yes the female sex proportion is falling in a diminishing rate and the sex inequality is in the rise. And in such a topsy-turvy position the film is a timely representation for the country plagued by two of the most horrific crimes against women: female infanticide and female foeticide.
India has a long history of infanticide. In 1987, when India’s first census survey was conducted by the British, the scope of the problem of infanticide became visible. The sex ratio was 940 females to 1000 males in Pre-independence India. The British passed an act banning infanticide called Female Infanticide Act 1870. But the act was difficult to put into practice because most birth happened at home, and registration of births was not common. Hence the number of mysterious child mortality cases remained unaccounted. Technology changed the mode of getting rid of a girl child. Female infanticide took the form of Female foeticide.
Female foeticide, which is a two-step practice, includes the detection of the unborn baby in the womb of the mother and the abortion of the girl child. Female feticide is a gross violation of many a rights. It violates the right to life of the unborn child. It is a very strong manifestation of violence against women, a violation of their human rights. Many women suffer from psychological trauma as a result of forcibly undergoing repeated abortions.
In 1994, the Government of India passed the Pre- conception and Pre-natal Diagnostic Techniques [PNDT] (Prohibition of Sex Selection) with the aim of preventing female foeticide. The implementation of this Act was slow. It was later amended and replaced in 2002 by the Prenatal Diagnostic Techniques [PDT] (Regulation and Prevention of Misuse) Act without ever having been properly implemented. On the other hand Medical malpractice in this area is flourishing, and bans on gender selection in many a parts of India has a very negligible effect.
Out of 15 millions abortions all over the world in 1997 India claims 4 millions. And 90% of the abortion argues the cause for Girl Child. Yes there is a trafficking going on, which contributes for the declining girl child sex ratio. And amid the trafficking the much-talked efforts to maintain a ‘balanced sex ratio’ is a night-mare.
It’s a question of liberty, dignity of woman and children. Who are the people those who snatch away the life of the child from her mother’s womb. The psychological diseased- stricken mind set of the family members look forward a male child. They do not even care to kill a child before its birth. And the nexus of doctors, with the touts adds enough fuel to it.
Many campaigns have been running in highlighting the importance of the girl child in a society, where baby girls still neglected. But still the specter which has been haunting India is that of the vanishing girl child. Census statistics show that millions of girls who should have been citizens of India today are missing. Neither the PNDT Act, 1994, nor its reincarnation, the PDT act 2002 has had any impact.
To what can we attribute this abysmal state of affairs? The brick and mortar system of addressing sex inequality! Excuses about shortage of manpower and lack of expertise! Not a single case of sex determination has apparently been charged and punished. And the reason: Lack of circumstantial evidence.
“The sharp decline in sex ratio is a matter of serious concern. Every child has the right to survive. The mother has no right towards making decision to have or not to have the child. The child is not only belonging to the mother. It belongs to the generation to come. Female feticide snatches away the right to birth,” said Girija Vyas, Chairperson National Commission for Women, while talking to Day After. “Plans are not probably implemented,” she said. “The woman commission has demanded a review of the PNDT act. There is a pressing need of right implementation and the essence of monitoring the implementation,” she exhorted.
According to Prasanna Hota, Secretary at Ministry of Women and Child Welfare, female forticide is greater threat then HIV Aids. “The present prosecution mechanism is not good enough to tackle the menace,” he said.
“Population policy is not about stabilization, but about balanced sex ratio. Something we are loosing. Female feticide is the key to the growing problem,” said Ranjana Kumari, Director Centre for Social Research. “There is need for awareness and sensitivity among the people regarding the issue of Female feticide. The mindset of the people should be changed to understand the growing problem,” she said by adding that “The PDT and PNDT act should be modified and to be ensured for not being misused. The punishment should be much more serious.”

Janmashtami Festival
¤ The Holy Birth of Lord KrishnaJanmashtami is celebrated every year on the 8th day of the dark fortnight that is also known as the Krishna Paksh, in the Hindu month of bhadon (around July-August). The period usually coincides with the rainy season.The festival celebrates the birth of Lord Krishna – the black God. Krishna is the eighth and most important incarnation of Vishnu (Preserver in the Hindu Holy Trinity of Creator-Preserver-Destroyer of the Universe). However the avatar of Krishna that perhaps overrides the sum total of his other manifestations is that of the omniscient charioteer who delivers the wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita to Arjun before the great war of Mahabharata – a Hindu epic. Therefore Krishna is also known as Parthasarathi, or Arjun's/Partha's charioteer. The discourse is also telling of his consummate wit, intelligence and acumen as a statesman. ¤ According To Hindu Mythology Hindu mythology presents a fascinating chain of events that were to unfold around the time of Krishna’s birth.Krishna's parents Deviki and Vasudev were thrown into prison by his maternal uncle Kans – the tyrant King of Mathura (Uttar Pradesh), as it had been prophesied by Naradmuni that Kans would be annihilated by the eighth child born of his cousin sister Deviki. Not wanting to leave anything to chance, Kans killed each of the seven children immediately after their birth in prison. Finally the eighth child was born – a beautiful dark baby boy. Legend has it that miraculously all the guards of the prison fell into deep sleep, the prison gates opened, and Deviki and Vasudev became unfettered. An akashvani, or heavenly voice ordained Vasudev to take his newborn son, destined to rid the world of evil, to his friend Nand and his wife Yashoda in Gokul, a city that lay across the River Yamuna. Fearing for the life of his son, Vasudev readied himself for a journey wrought with perils. Yamuna in spate parted its waters to make way for the father and son as soon as infant Krishna touched the swelling waters with his tiny foot, and the Shaeshnag (the many-headed serpent king) emerged from the deluge to shield the two from the tumultuous downpour. Across the Yamuna, Yashoda had recently given birth to a daughter who was sleeping soundly besides her parents. Vasudev quietly left his son besides the sleeping and unsuspecting Nand and Yashoda, and returned to his wife in Mathura with Nand and Yashoda's daughter.¤ The Legendary Tale ContinuesIn keeping with the nature of legends, as soon as Vasudev was back in the prison cell, the gates clamped shut and the guards woke up to resume their duty. The birth of the child was brought to the notice of Kans who immediately came to repeat the infernal ritual with the supposed eighth child of Deviki.The heartless king threw the girl child against the wall. But instead of being killed, she rose to the skies and soon the heavens resounded with a celestial voice informing Kans that his destroyer had already been born and was safe! With this, the girl child vanished amidst thunderclap and lightning. It is believed that the child, referred to as Deviji, was actually the embodiment of the Goddess Durga (the Goddess of War and Power) and was later to be worshipped under other names such as Tara, Mandakini, Ishani.Janmashtami is therefore actually celebrated twice, the occasions coinciding with Krishna's birth in captivity in Mathura, and the discovery of the newborn Krishna in Nand and Yashoda's house in Gokul.¤ The CelebrationsThis tale is fondly remembered on the day of Janmashtami as temples and homes light up for the joyous occasion. Especially cities like Mumbai, Agra, Mathura and Vrindavan come alive during the festival. Cribs and other displays with dolls in traditional costumes depict the life and times of Krishna. Raas Leelas (dance dramas) enact incidents from Krishna’s life amidst much pomp and show. People fast till midnight, the time of Krishna’s birth. Elaborate pujas, or prayer ceremonies are held in temples and homes to welcome the lord at midnight amongst joyous singing of hymns. Prasad (sweetmeat offered to the lord and later eaten by devotees) is distributed to everyone. The lord having arrived, it is time for everyone to settle down to a hearty vegetarian meal.
¤ The Holy Birth of Lord KrishnaJanmashtami is celebrated every year on the 8th day of the dark fortnight that is also known as the Krishna Paksh, in the Hindu month of bhadon (around July-August). The period usually coincides with the rainy season.The festival celebrates the birth of Lord Krishna – the black God. Krishna is the eighth and most important incarnation of Vishnu (Preserver in the Hindu Holy Trinity of Creator-Preserver-Destroyer of the Universe). However the avatar of Krishna that perhaps overrides the sum total of his other manifestations is that of the omniscient charioteer who delivers the wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita to Arjun before the great war of Mahabharata – a Hindu epic. Therefore Krishna is also known as Parthasarathi, or Arjun's/Partha's charioteer. The discourse is also telling of his consummate wit, intelligence and acumen as a statesman. ¤ According To Hindu Mythology Hindu mythology presents a fascinating chain of events that were to unfold around the time of Krishna’s birth.Krishna's parents Deviki and Vasudev were thrown into prison by his maternal uncle Kans – the tyrant King of Mathura (Uttar Pradesh), as it had been prophesied by Naradmuni that Kans would be annihilated by the eighth child born of his cousin sister Deviki.

The Grand Celebration
Durga Puja is celebrated on a mass scale with puja pandals (marquees) dotting nearly every nook and corner of West Bengal. Thanks to a migrant Bengali population, the past few years have seen a rise in the number of Durga Pujas in other parts of the country and abroad as well. Preparations for the Puja begin long before the actual day arrives. If you are looking for bargains, you won’t find a better time. Publishing houses come out with puja editions of magazines, and craftsmen and artisans do brisk business at this time of the year.During the four days of Durga Puja, Bengalis really let their hair down. Beside the actual Puja, most pandals organise different kinds of competition to regale the local people. It’s party time for both children and adults alike as they participate wholeheartedly in the fun and frolic. Local talent gets a chance to share the stage (a makeshift one more often than not) with more illustrious artists.The festivities begin from maha shashthi (the sixth day from the day after mahalaya) when the priest unveils the deity during a puja known as bodhan. On this day the women of the house fast for the well-being of the family. The fast is broken in the evening with fruits and luchis (a kind of bread made of flour), usually eaten with sabzi (vegetables). It is normal for the whole family to participate in these rituals, especially when it comes to partaking of the yummy luchis and sabzi. A trip to the local pandal is also a must.The morning of maha saptami (seventh day) is taken up with the worship of the deity, followed by anjali when a devotee offers prayers and flowers on an empty stomach, amidst the chanting of mantras to the Goddess. Only then can one make a beeline for the prasad (sweetmeat offered to the deity). Bhog (meal provided to all and sundry after the Goddess has partaken of it) at lunchtime is a welcome break for those who gather in the pandals. But come evening, and the pandal becomes a dazzling array of new clothes, shiny faces of children running helter-skelter and a spectacular display of lights. The rhythmic beat of the dhak (drums) adds to the mood of Bengal’s most popular festival.The maha ashtami (eighth day) is an especially significant day. The priest breathes life into the idol of Durga as he performs the sandhi puja (worship in the evening) to the chanting of shlokas (religious couplets). The reflection of the idol has to be observed in a bowl of water as this gives an impression of movement. This part of the puja is known as pranpratishtha (breathing life into the idol). Kumari puja (worship of young girls) is an old custom still carried out in certain temples.All these special ceremonies are interspersed with the usual rounds of anjali, prasad and bhog. Merry-making reaches fever pitch by the evening on this day. of course, amongst the highlights of the evenings are the gastronomical treats that can be bought from the stalls abounding in the pandals. Pandal-hopping is also a favourite pastime.One cannot talk about maha navmi (ninth day), without laying emphasis on the fact that meat is served in many pandals as part of the bhog, but never in the temples. This being the penultimate day of the Puja, one can feel that it is soon going to be over.
¤ Bijoya Dashami
Coinciding with Dussehra is bijoya dashami, the last day of the Pujas. Married women bid farewell to the Mother Goddess through various rituals, entreating her to come back every year. The playful ritual called sindoor khela during which women smear each other’s hair, faces and bangles with vermilion powder, breaks the solemnity of the occasion. Later, all the idols are taken to nearby rivers or ponds to be immersed. To an outsider, this might seem like a colossal waste, but don’t forget, this also ensures idol makers never go out of business. Festivals in India are occasions to catch up with friends and relatives, and this festival is no different. The evening of bijoya dashami is reserved for spending time with friends and family, with youngsters touching the feet of the elders as a mark of respect. A description of bijoya dashami is incomplete without mentioning the mouth-watering delicacies like sweets and nimkis (a crispy treat made of flour) that are prepared by the women of the house

Will you forge a permanent bond, or will the two of you slowly pull away and eventually become strangers in the same house?
Are you already noticing faults that you are repressing, perhaps even being in denial, for fear that this relationship won?t last? Are you thinking clearly, or is your quest for settling down overriding your common sense?
When encountering difficulties, will the two of you be able to work things out in a calm, rational manner, or will it lead to heated debates and unrelenting arguments?
And, finally, will the two of you grow more in love, or will the opposite occur? In effect, is this a good match?

World Disasters Report 2007
Older people are discriminated against during humanitarian emergencies, says this year’s annual World Disasters Report, launched on December 13 by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.
According to the report, discrimination of older people prevents them from realising their rights to be included in disaster response programmes and access resources for recovery. the root of discrimination against older people lie a range of prejudices and false assumptions. Six myths about older people in emergencies
False assumptions perpetuate discrimination against older people. Exploring these myths is vital to reduce the unnecessary suffering of some of society’s most vulnerable people in emergency situations.
These six myths are taken from the World Disasters Report 2007
Myth 1: The extended family and community will protect older people at all times
This is not always true, especially not in exceptional situations such as disaster situations. After the Indian Ocean tsunami of 26 December 2004, HelpAge India identified more than 9,000 older people who had been missed in the rush for assistance. Even if they have families, older people are not always treated equitably and may be denied the opportunity to contribute.
Myth 2: An agency will look after older people
There are no UN agencies and very few international NGOs dedicated to older people.
Myth 3: Older people can be covered by general aid distributions
In fact, older people have particular nutritional, cultural and other requirements that are not met by a general relief distribution. Clothes distributed in response to the Darfur crisis in July 2004 were culturally inappropriate for older people, and medicines did not cater for their chronic illnesses.
Myth 4: Older people only have themselves to worry about
Displacement, conflict and chronic diseases such as HIV mean that increasing numbers of older people are responsible not only for themselves, but also for their children or grandchildren. In Darfur, nearly one-third of the older population are caring for orphans.
Myth 5: Older people are waiting to be helped
The reality is that older people want to be recognised for their capabilities. Accustomed to providing for themselves, they want to regain control of their lives and contribute to the welfare of the community as much as they are able to.
Myth 6: Older people are too old to work
Older people often still contribute economically to their households and may remain the key decision-makers in times of crisis. Supporting the recovery of their livelyhood after disaster

Birth Stones
Birth stones can be of different types. Along with the Traditional ones, there are Astrological, Mystical, Ayurvedic and a Modern list of stones. While the traditional ones reflect the 15th century traditions, the mystical stones are of Tibetan origin and the Ayurvedic stones, associated with 'Ayurveda' an Indian system of Medicine are over thousands of years old. Here we have given the Modern list of birthstones adopted in 1912 by the American National Association of Jewellers.
