You have all those books? Wow!

Anyway, should I draw out some tarot cards for Adnan? I swear, I'm not a pro, but, I found a deck of cards outside my apartment and just took them. 😅

Anyway, I drew a card for him and that's the card, The moon reversed:

Also the explanation, which is self explanatory:

I think our guy is definitely ignoring his instincts and reassuring himself that everything is OK and taking a rational approach (doing Ekta's show) instead of listening to his heart/desire/feelings/6th sense. Aka he's forcing himself to stay.

SIDE NOTE: I'm not good at this, just consider tarot as fun. Any personal readings isn't advised, and if I somehow do, please don't believe that ish at 100%. All in fun and games.😁

Mother of Princess Charumati, she was a mere concubine, her baby girl was given to Agramahishi Asandhimitra who brought her up, Princess Charumati was married to Devapala Kshatriya of Nepal , the show could have utilised Uma as mom of Charumati but guess they don't have that broad vision and knowledge of history. Charumati took care of Ashok in his last days. A beloved daughter she was.

Biological mother of Charumati (an unnamed concubine) 👇

Kumari Charumati 👇 was adopted by Asandhimitra and was given education and protection by her , considering Asandhimitra preferred to adopt a daughter than son also hints towards progressive approach

These ladies were so mesmerizing

no wonder kings were smitten by them

Chandragupta gave 500 elephants just so that he could marry Seleucus' daughter (this is called Asur vivah) and obviously to make Seleucus happy as he was reluctant to give Helena to him though he surrendered the lands which Chandragupta demanded. In all of this, Helena's consent was not taken as happened that time with many Princesses. 😑😞 Just how what Karu felt in oldie situation is exactly she would have felt too, but Chandragupta was handsome , charming , moralistic and obviously very rich, so that teen girl caught a huge crush on her husband and later fell in love. 🤣😂

You can say that, Chandragupta wasn't very old, the guy was in his 30s, itna bhi old nahi tha 😂🤣 Making Chandragupta his son in law was Seleucus' smartest decision as he eliminated a big rival of his and got to marry 15 year old Startonice and his later Daughter in law 🤢 Compared to Seleucus, Chandragupta was a saint. No matter what Chandragupta would do, he would never marry and have a kid with his daughter in law 🤢😡 Seleucus did this to save his son's life though and he knew he would be hated for this so he called a huge meeting with his army and said whatever a king decides is for the best 🙄😒 He loved Antiochus too much 😒 he did everything to give his fascinating toy even when he was rebuked and abhorred for his decision 🙄 Some scholars opine Seleucus hated Demetrius and thats why he wanted to insult him using Stratonice 🙄😒 oh well
