According to the NASA there would be a Total Solar Eclipse on Sunday, the July 11, 2010, begins at 17:10 hrs Universal Time and ends at 21:58 hrs. The maximum total duration of the total solar eclipse will be 5 minutes and 20 seconds. This is the 2nd total Solar Eclipse in 2010. This sort of an eclipse is happening after over 1000 years according to the astrologers where though it is a total eclipse it is not seen in majority of places. This would be visible in Southern Pacific Ocean regions, Tuamotu in French Polynesia, Mangaia (Cook Islands), Easter Island (Isla de Pascua) and Argentina, Chile in South America. This eclipse would not be visible in India.

The position of planets at the time of eclipse and its placement in the house creates an impact on us and last for almost 6 months. Since the eclipse falls in Gemini sign all individuals who have their Ascendant, Birth moon, Birth Sun in Gemini will be affected the most. The most affected would be those born under nakshatras Aadra, Punarvasu and Pushya. Keep a complete fast during the eclipse period and chant the mantras of your rasi graha apart from mantras like Gayatri Mantra, Ashtakshara Mantra, Mahamrityunjay Mantra is also chanted during eclipse. The strotras of Sun like Surya Kavach Strotra and Aditya Hridaya Strotram can also be chanted. A holy dip at sacred rivers on the day of eclipse is also auspicious.

The Power of Mantras

Mantras were originally conceived in the Vedas, India’s oldest and most revered spiritual text. The word "mantra" is derived from two Sanskrit words, "manas" which means “mind” and "trai" which means “to free from”. So the word “mantra” literally implies “to free from the mind". Mantras bring in therapeutic benefits and curative effect and can lower blood pressure, cholesterol level, adrenalin level and even normalize heart beat rate. Mantras can remove negativity like fear, anger, jealousy etc and bring in positives like improved concentration and memory power, control over emotions, improved blood circulation and also activate our body’s natural healing processes. Mantra Chanting therefore brings in a calming effect on our Nervous System helping us to relax and be stress free. Mantras can be used to awaken the Kundalini and stimulate the Chakras.

The Power of Gemstones

According to Hindu Astrology, the life of all human beings is influenced by the 9 Planets or Navagrahas. The 9 planets considered by Vedic astrologers are the Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu. The outer planets of Neptune, Uranus, and Pluto are not used in ancient classical Vedic astrology and thus have no gemstones assigned to them. The main gems for these 9 planets referred to as "navaratna" meaning 9 gems and the substitute gems are called "uparatna".This influence the planets may be positive or negative. Based on an individual's horoscope or position of Planets, either a single gem or a combination of compatible gems is advised to be worn to increase the effects of beneficial planets or counteract harmful planets.
