Importance of Name in Astrology

Is your Name lucky for you?

In “Bhramnda Upnishad” Rishi says that sound or vowels never dies and it remain in universe. This also give great impact in life.  Because life is based on the panch mahabhuta(the 5 elements-water,earth,air,fire,ether. Sound or vowels produce different sounds which correspond to the panch mahabhuta,adding vowels brings in different elements, so it is important to check elemental harmony of the name and birthday. If you have a fire birthday (number 1),you must be careful that your phonetic name does not add up to number 4 ( water name), as there is incompatibility between fire and water.

Essential rules for keeping phonetically correct names are as:

1. Initial letter of your name should begin with your Moon rashi-nakshatra in concord with your rising sign in the birth chart/lagna.

2. The Moon rashi, fate / destiny number, whichever is stronger be used to keep the name.

3. If the rising sign (lagna) is weak, use the moon sign, if that too is weak, then the friendly planet of rashi or ascendant be taken.

4.Initials of name should not be of weak planet in your birth chart. eg. if Venus is weak in the chart do not have initials beginning with U, E, I,even though you may have fate no 2 (ruled by Saturn).

If your name is not in accordance with the above do not worry. Pronouncing names phonetically right is more important, so spell your names correctly. The best solution for this is to write and sign your name in the devnagiri script. If your name is Monica don’t corrupt it by spelling it as Saachin, Karnea can’t be spelt as Kareena. Adding extra i’s and a’s needlessly as in the example will only create a confused personality as the phonetics will be incorrect and everyone will pronounce your name differently.

Someone born on 4.7.1975 at 3:00 p.m. will have fate number 4 and Moon rashi of Mesha (Aries)and Bharni ,so his name should start with alphabet La and add up to

 1.Though his fate no.is 4,since Saturn is malefic  for his rising sign Aries, he should not use a name adding to 4,instead he must choose a name that adds to 1(ruled by Sun),which is strong in the chart. A person whose birth nakshatra is debilitated will be sickly, if the swara is debilitated he will be in mourning or tragedy, if the rashi is debilitated he will have problems and if his janam tithi is debilitated he will have fears.. If even two or three of these are debilitated there are problems at work. But if your rashi name,nakshatra,varna and swara are debilitated you must be careful in particular months.

According to the western view it has been indicated which days are suitable, but the Indian view is that the ruler of either the ascendant or the moon rashi, whichever is powerful must be used or the friendly planet of both the moon rashi and ascendant lord must be used as a lucky day. It has been observed that for many years a particular number is favorable, but later it becomes unfavorable, this is because if a planetary dasha is unfavorable then that number too becomes unfavorable.
