Apart from decoding past, present and future events, the purpose is to understand why an event is happening and what its karmic reason might be, if there is one. If a person is facing a major problem in life, we should try to decode its karmic roots. Sometimes, we find an answer, and sometimes, we do not. Confirming such events, especially those involving other family members, is genuinely difficult. But, we can often confirm the nature, mindset and life events of the native themselves & then finding the karkic linkage is quite easy. In this case, the native was facing some serious personal problems that were deeply disturbing him. While decoding the planetary combinations, I asked him to verify certain property-related issues involving a child. Initially, he denied them. Later, after speaking with his family members, he confirmed that these events had indeed taken place within the family. Once such events are confirmed, the remedies that follow become more meaningful. You can then direct your remedies towards the karmic dimension of the problem as well. This, in my view, is the true purpose of this subject: to understand the real or potential causes behind our existence and the events we experience, whether good or bad. Hope it helps you.

There are three basic layers to the karmic journey indicated in your horoscope. Let me explain the most fundamental one and how you can begin decoding it yourself. suppose someone has Saturn in the 4th house. One way to understand this placement is that the person has to take responsibility towards motherly figures, their motherland and matters connected with their home. There is a reason behind every planetary placement. You have to understand what that planet represents, what responsibilities it indicates and what you are supposed to learn through it. Let me explain this with another example. Suppose someone has the Sun in the 10th house. The person should try to help those who approach them with career-related problems and should never deliberately create obstacles in anyone's professional growth. The Sun represents authority, leadership and the ability to guide others. A well-expressed Sun does not misuse authority; it provides direction and supports others. Your natural tendencies and the responsibilities indicated by a planetary placement are two different things. What you naturally want to do is one aspect. What you should consciously practise to fulfil the constructive expression of that placement is another. This is what I want you to understand. Let's take one more example. Suppose someone has Mars in the 4th house. The person should take responsibility towards siblings, help neighbours, avoid rash driving and contribute towards improving their locality. There is a subtle difference between the responsibilities represented by Saturn and Mars. Saturn teaches responsibility through discipline, limitations and obligations, sometimes through circumstances that you cannot avoid. Mars teaches responsibility through courage, initiative and the willingness to take action. You can apply this principle to all the planets and their placements in your D1 chart. Understand what each planet represents, identify the responsibilities associated with its placement and consciously practise those qualities in your daily life. Start implementing these principles in real life. You will gradually understand your chart in a much deeper way, and your approach towards life can improve considerably. This is only the fundamental level of karmic decoding. In the coming posts, I will explain how to examine these placements at deeper levels, even within the D1 chart.
