Look at May stats 24 billion - 44 billion = -20 billion ! Deficit is going up. By this rate, the deficit will be more than 200 billion ! The Big Auto companies are moving to Indonesia and Thailand, due to the sluggish market growth in India !  Honda, Toyota, Nissan and Ford are going to invest 24000 cr in Indonesia and 10000 cr in Thailand. High interest rates in India and lack of Indian Government's incentives to trigger sales, while Indonesia and Thailand are giving lots of incentives to car purchasers ! Comparitively India will only get 14000 cr by 2016, way behind her competitors ! Saturn in the Fourth is also bad and the two major planets are at the moment unfavorable for India. 

Jupiter in the Second from the Ascendant had made India World Champions, winners of the CT13, held in England ! It is a young team. Nobody gave them a chance, as people thought they didnt have the sufficient experience.  Moo  Ket  Mar Jup Mer Sun                      Jul   201 3  Ven      Sat  Rah   This team does not carry baggage and is the best Indian team ever. Finally Dhoni got the team he wanted. He said that he prefers a player with guts to a player with skill ! Just what the Doctor ordered. 

Now India is in the Carribean and two powerful teams are getting at them, the WI and SL ! Dhoni admits that expectations are high for India. The Indian fans want more victories and this will be difficult to give. You cant win all matches all the time. But Young India is very fit, to take challenges. Dhoni has gone on record that a gutsy player is better than a skilled player. Mental toughness is all that counts.  WI meet SL today for the first match, which begins at 0800 PM IST. For India, Shikhar Dhawan is now more experienced, wiser and stronger ! Is the the true replacement for Sehwag ? Time alone will tell.

The Dance of Destruction of the SW Monsoon continues. It is raining cats and dogs here in Guruvayur. Chalakudy River is overflowing  Fishermen are warned not to venture into the sea and Trawling is banned. Now the Sun is transiting Aridra and this is known as Thiruvathira Njattuvela in Kerala. 10 days, 10 nights, meaning that there will be sufficient rains with sunny interludes. The Dance of Destruction done by the Head of Orion, Mriga Sira, the samhara thandava of Mriga Sira is gone, replaced  by the still fierce Aridra or Roudra Njattuvela. Njayar means Sun and Velas are  periods, meaning that they are the periods of the Sun.  On 5 Jul, the Punarvasu Njattuvela will begin and on 19th, the Pushya Njattuvela.  Have you heard of Tibetan and Zen Singing Bowls ?  Nepal and Tibet are characterised by such magnificent  handicraft masterpieces.  The Himalayan Expanse, famous as the "Root of the World", is home to  Mysticism Divine  and to instruments of Medit

A Crafts Village has been set up near Chaliyar River, in Kozhikode, by the Kerala Tourism Department. Sargalaya called, it focusses on bulding a destination for tourists and an interaction between artisans and tourists.  Kerala's traditional crafts will be made an integral part of the experience of the tourist. Built on a plot of 20 acres, amidst calm, green surroundings, Sargalaya incorporates the beauty of Monsoon Kerala, the Damsel who puts on a Green Silk Saree, as poets describe Kerala. It has 27 cottages, where the artisans can work.  It has a Crafts Design & Techonology Development Center which imparts training to artisans, encouraging innovation.

Actually, Astrology is not a predictive science. We say everything is known only to the Lord. People think astrologers are ominiscient and no mortal is omniscient ! People ask why didnt the astrologers predict tsunamis? I told them that it is not the duty of the astrologer to predict tsunamis. We are not gods ! Nature is dualistic, that is she has both destructive and creative aspects. In Her destructive aspect, She is Kali and in Her creative aspect, She is Sarawathi. The Hindu sees Her in the sweetness of Saraswathi, the laughter of Krishna and the terror of Kali. Lord Krishna says in the BG that I am the all Devouing Death, Mrityu sarva haraschaham. The astrologer is wise only after the event. I pointed out the SWM has a destructive aspect too. Hundreds of houses were devoured by the sea. Theare are again merits and demerits of having a sea nearby. When monsoon floods come, the blockages can be removed and the water can be allowed to flow into the sea. Last week this was

The Rupee falling has everything to do with misgovernance. Look at the May stats   Export - Import = Deficit   24 b - 44 b = -20 billion   The deficit for May is -20 b and it is safe to assume that the deficit will be >200 billion this year. Given the $319 billion federal debt, where does India stand. MMS is an underperformer. We have to replace. Since Jupiter moved to the 12th in India's horoscope ( Star _ Pushya ), we are hearing bearish news. The Stock Market has come down. Gold has come down and now the Rupee is Senior ! The Ministry that it will become 70 and it is healthy, they say ! For one more year, Jupiter in the 12th, can devastate the Indian economy. God only knows how much Inflation, food inflation etc will rise.
