Janmashtami: A day of prayer for marital bliss
Janmashtami

The festival of Janmashtami falls today. Lord Krishna appeared in Mathura on this day. His wonderful Raas Leela with the gopis reaches its climax when he enacts it with his beloved Radha. The display of flute by Lord Krishna is melodious bringing the world together. On hearing it, nature as a whole experiences a spiritual thrill. Gopis followed him with abandon. The reason being, Lord Krishna’s love for Radha was supreme, eternal and unconditional.

Astrologically, the Moon entered the house of Taurus in Rohini Nakshatra in the month of Sravana when Lord Krishna appeared. He is the epitome of spiritual love and it is believed that influence of Venus is most strong on Janmashtami. 

Venus is the Lord of seventh house; pertains to love, romance and marriage. This house also gives indication of emotional bond. If it is aspected by a malefic planet, the native does not enjoy family bliss. Broken relationships, separation, divorce and marital discord are seen from the seventh house.

ASTRO GUIDE

It is believed the couples in love and who want to marry should keep fast on Janmashtami. They are advised to donate milk, curd, silver, honey and ghee. Women desirous of a child should recite mantra (below) after taking a bath in cow’s milk. The balroopa of the Lord should be kept at the time of recitation. Recite Aum Devkisut Govind Vasudev Jagatpate Dehi Mein Tanye Krishan Tavmeh Sharnagata, 2,100 times; direction: East; rosary: Pearls/ Chandan.

According to your Sun sign, if a native writes the names of Lord Krishna in a specific direction towards  his statue on the auspicious night of Janmashtami then, all his/her desires will be fulfilled.
