This law in physical science can also be said to represent the Law of Karma in the spiritual sciences. Saturn is viewed as the agent and administrator of Karmic Law. It is Saturn who stands at the Gates of Initiation, ready to put all who aspire to a higher state of consciousness to the test.

Saturn is the farthest planet visible from the Earth with the naked eye. Its rings are symbolic of limitations and represent the Law of Karma. It is impossible to move out to the outer edges of space without first passing though Saturn's rings.enter the more advanced levels of consciousness without first passing through Saturn's rings.

A person must fulfill the responsibilities of personal karma with limitations before moving into a more advanced level of consciousness, or an unlimited, higher reality.

Karmic debt does not permit us to go beyond our limited consciousness. However Saturn's lessons give opportunity. It is by understanding and working with Saturn that we can find balance with past karma and can go forward consciously to a more refined way of self-expression as an individual and collectively.

As we progress through life, we often find that it is through restrictions and the pain which comes from thwarted desires or aspirations, that we develop a greater understanding of the Laws of Life. No pain no gain.

The structure and administration of these Laws is also under the rulership of Saturn. The sign and house position of Saturn in your natal chart will reveal much about the nature of the areas where successful work has been achieved (positive aspects to and from Saturn) or where work still has to be done (hard aspects or conjunctions with Saturn).

What is Karma?

Why do some people have a successful career, loads of money, a seemingly great romantic life and radiant health and vitality while many others suffer for the want of one or many of these?

This is due to karma.

Karma rules all aspects of human life like health, wealth, education etc

"Karma is your pre-disposition and is one of the primary influences which decides whether you will have money, relationship etc."~ Dr. Pillai, founder of AstroVed

Dr. Pillai goes on to say that everyone has a choice to live his/her old karma or create a new one. Because they do not know the technology to change their old karma, they simply live their old karma until they die.

Karma is not just a metaphysical philosophy; it is real. Whatever you think becomes a reality in the invisible space-time complex of your soul. Then it manifests in life after an appropriate lapse of time. It is extremely important to remain positive and only nurture positive thoughts. There is a danger of the negative thoughts catching up to us and inflicting us in this life or in a life to come. It is the thought process that creates karma. It is the planets that influence thought.

What is Pradosham?

Pradosham literally means the removal of sins. These times are the windows of opportunity to remove karma or karmic energies that limit our potential in this current life.

The 3 Levels of Pradosham

Each energy level indicates how much karma may be released at that time. All levels are designed to help speed our evolution and make our lives easier and happier.

First Level: All Pradoshams occur between 1-1/2 hours before and right up until the moment of sunset in the time zone where you are physically.

The Middle Level: These Pradoshams occur twice each month - on the 13th moon day after the New Moon and after the Full Moon.

Check out our 2012 Calendar to ensure you get the date correct and that you're up to date on all the other astrologically significant dates.

The Supreme Level: Shani Pradosham and Soma Pradoshams occurs when one of the 13th moon days occurs on a Saturday or a Monday respectively. The planet Saturn is considered an Agent of Karma who delivers many of life's tougher lessons to help us refine and evolve our souls. Pradosham time are measured by the phases of the Moon.

• Shani Pradosham - When 13th Moon falls on Saturday

It is believed that Shiva has more influence over Saturn on this day and can cause Saturn to loosen or release entirely some of the karmic bonds that limit us. It is also thought that the first Pradosham was on a Saturday and observing this time transports us back to time of the Churning of the Milky Ocean.

• Soma Pradosham - When 13th Moon falls on Monday

Monday is known to be time to worship Shiva, it is the day ruled by His consort, the Goddess Parvati who rules over the Moon. The Moon rules emotions and emotions influence thought. Karma is created by thought.

Technology to Remove Old Karma

Pradosham timings provide the ideal opportunities to dissolve karmas. Since we accrue karmas every day, karma removal is an ongoing process; quite like cleaning your house or brushing your teeth.

"Thiru Neela Kantam" - the Karma Busting Mantra

Pradosham Each Day

You can observe this daily by chanting the mantra "Thiru Neela Kantam" inwardly or outwardly at any time during the dusk period. 108 times is considered the minimum or you can do 10,008.

You can opt to have "Thiru Neela Kantam" written by proxy for you. Proxy Mantra Writing helps with busting your karma as well as creating good dharma for you. Perform daily abishekam during this time by pouring milk or water over a Shiva Lingam while chanting the mantra.

Pradosham Every 13th Moon

AstroVed's Expert Vedic Priests perform Special Poojas on the 13th Moon, both waxing and waning phases for Pradosham. Specific Vedic chants are recited, the correct authentic offerings are made including water, sandalwood powder, milk, yogurt, honey etc.

The Goddess of the Mind

The ruler or "overlord" of the Moon is Shiva's consort, Parvati. She is the source of creative energy and is a dynamic extension of Shiva onto this universe. The Moon controls emotions and mentality. To master your mind you must first dissolve your karmas. Karmas are thoughts, deeds and actions which are stored in your permanent records or your energetic signature. Once cleared Shakti or powerful energy represented by the Goddess, can flow uninterrupted into all aspects of your life.

The Master of Time

Lord Shiva is shown wearing the crescent moon in his hair. The waxing and waning of the Moon reveals the time cycle through which creation evolves from the beginning to the end. Lord Shiva has mastered time symbolizing the Eternal Reality beyond time.

Makkaral Temple

A powerful karma removal vortex has been identified by Dr. Pillai which has the energy to remove karma very fast. This is a vortex where Lord Shiva appeared as a golden lizard, and the temple tower has statues showing that story. The image of the Shiva Linga is peculiar at this temple. Rather than rounded at the top, it is pointed upward like a lizard tail or like a sword blade.

The mantra to chant: "Makkaral Shivayanama"

Koyambedu Temple

1 = 10,000

It is said that 1 Pradosham ritual at the ancient Shiva vortex is equivalent to performing 10,000 Pradosham rituals.

Once in near ruin, the temple in Chennai where the first Pradosham Ritual occurred is experiencing a renewal. Dr. Pillai, the founder of AstroVed identified the temple years ago as being a very powerful vortex for karma removal.

In the story of the Churning of the Milky Ocean,

Nandhi was the one who carried the poison to Shiva at His request. After Shiva drank the poison, He fell down and Parvati grabbed his throat to stop the flow, and that is why the Blue Throat.

At that same moment, Nandhi had a thought that if he carried the poison to Shiva and is not affected by it, then maybe he is more powerful than Shiva.

Nandhi immediately went mad and ran around kicking wildly. Parvati managed to put a ring through his nose and tame him, bringing him back to sanity.

It was at this spot of ancient Shiva Vortex where Nandhi rests to this day. His statue here depicts a peaceful smile. During the Pradosham ritual, both the Shiva Lingam and the Nandhi statue are given an abishekam,

Shiva's energy flows through Nandhi during this time. It is symbolically represented by Nandhi carrying Shiva on his back. Nandhi represents Dharma. This is action with righteousness which is the opposite of accruing karma through wrong action. The world is out of balance now with evil and negativity being predominant.
