Hi Bavie,
Nice to read yr posts.
I have not been able to watch the serial because I am having problems downloading the videos so just been reading the updates.
Horoscope matching is practised by those who believe in it. Once one is aware of the positions of the planets and stars and their movement have an effect on our lives i.e present economic crisis was predicted by the astrologers (my BIL is studying astrology as a hobby for years and he warned us a year ago) based on the guru planet shift. My point being that once you are aware of this fact you will be uncomfortable ignoring it or pretending that it doesn't matter to oneself.
In love marriages, it would be better if the kundalini is not matched again for the same reasoning whether perhaps ignorance is bliss.
A real story " my mother's friend who believes much in the Granth etc when her son found his own bride, she went on the sly and matched the kundalini. The news was not good because some dosha was involved. Mother now in possession of this information suddenly did an about face regarding the marriage. The couple eloped. Couple of years later, they faced some problem and they divorced."
Another friend of hers aranged the marriage of her son with a manglik girl despite knowing it could result in possible death of her son citing she did not believe in horoscopes etc. Within a year her son passed away.
The same way, people consult janma nakshatras to obtain the starting alphabet for their child's name so as to increase the positive vibrations on the child. E.g twin nieces of mine were named to the liking of the parents, the infants fell very sick. Panditji said they have to change their names based on janma nakshatra. The names were changed and both recovered and are in their twenties now.
I have met many people who were not horoscope believers to begin with but when bad times come, they start practising navagraha puja etc.
Even being second and third generations foreign indians horoscope matching and pujas are practised by the Hindus, heck I even know of Sikhs who do navagraha pujas. Its a part of our culture.
Also traditional belief makes the male the chief of the household. He is considered the main income earner and he is given that respect as Head. Hence all practices are always in favour of the male species.
My thoughts.
Thank you.
