Thanks for sharing your...@ Mr Saravanan Laxmanan, <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your views. You have given valuable inputs in understanding better the rainfall predictions. Apart from Meghadhipathi and Kala Mega concepts, one more idea has come up from your experience. On 16th April Mercury was in backward motion and moving towards Sun. That whips up hot winds. But at the same time, it was moving towards Venus ( a good indicator for rainfall) and Sun's location in Aswini right from 14th were factors favoring rainfall from thunder and hail. <br /><br />In other words, Since 14th April, we are having a combination of severe heat and windy combination together - both having a connection to rainfall yoga (sun in Aswini brings thunder storms. Mercury in retrogression and reaching deep conjunction with Sun supports winds and its movement to get close to Venus is a rainfall yoga,). <br /><br />You may like to read my other - continuing posts on this topic, particularly the April rainfall scenario https://jayasreesaranathan.blogspot.in/2017/04/rainfall-check-2-april-2017.htmlJayasree Saranathan https://www.blogger.com/profile/01048252011566427834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442555339667770589.post-25534076644945690612017-04-25T16:19:04.887+05:302017-04-25T16:19:04.887+05:30Respected Madam,
Thanks for the various articles ...Respected Madam,<br /><br />Thanks for the various articles that you are sharing with us and i feel very happy to read them. I never knew about the various traditional truths expounded by our scholars & siddhars - until i started reading your blog articles. I will encourage my daughters to read your blog to learn more about our glorious tradition that needs to be strengthened further.<br /><br />You had indicated the following line " When Mercury is the Meghadhipathi, there would be rains with thunders and hailstorms." in this article and i wanted to narrate my experience about the same.<br /> <br />My family was in Kodaikanal on Sunday - 16th of APRIL 2017 & we had gone there on a small holiday trip. On that day we were in a park and around noon - warm sunshine gave way to dark clouds in a short time and soon it started raining. We thought this was temporary rain caused by the passing clouds. But after 5 minutes of rain, we experienced hailstorm and it was a totally suprising event for us to see small but hard green-peas sized ice pellets falling on us. The hailstorms continued for another 10 minutes. Since we had small children with us - we couldn't move out of the park fast and we were left hiding under a small tree to save ourselves from the hailstorm. Pictures of this hailstorm event were published in local & Tamil newspapers printed from Dindigul & Madurai regions on the next day.<br /><br />I believe my above stated incident would be a proof for propensity of hailstorms happening due to Mercury being Megadhipathi and also about Kaalamegha (dark clouds) form of rains. <br /><br />Thanks.Saravanan Laxmananhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15679736935274550616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442555339667770589.post-51677194770571435942017-04-18T16:29:08.687+05:302017-04-18T16:29:08.687+05:30Dear Ms Usha,
Kindly note that I am not writing ...Dear Ms Usha, <br /><br />Kindly note that I am not writing private mails. Hence replying through this comment. <br /><br />The basic requirement for Paavai nonbu is a river with sandy banks! A flowing water body is needed.<br /><br />Time period is - Starting on the Full moon day of Margazhi and going on for 3 months. Homa for Shiva is done on the starting date by men on the river banks. Today this has become Arudra Darshan festival in Shiva temple. <br /><br />On the starting date all women and children take part. After that only children continue to throng the river bed.<br /><br />The time is pre-dawn.<br /><br />Though these are impractical nowadays, the spirit of Paavai nonbu continues through the early morning (pre-dawn) movement of devotees thronging temples in Margazhi and Iyapppa devotees taking bath at pre-dawn and thronging temples and women and kids spending time outside in the pre-dawn foggy atmosphere for laying Kolam in front of their houses. <br /><br />For details please go through the article in the following links written by me.

Where by i am coming through the article, i had little doubts to be followed :<br /><br />a) pravesha of moon in Aruda star has significance along with paavai nombu. As you said, it is good to hold paavai nombu, which will help, getting good rains during the month of june. And so, kindly elaborate on the methods/rules/lines to be followed to conduct a paavai nombu by a group of women during the month of margazhi (keeping in mind of the modern world) which will fetch good rains at the apt.time of june every year. <br /><br /> Here I am living at the back of Lord Kasthuri Ranganathar Koil, famous of Margazhi urchavam. Thiruppavai and Nalaayiram Dhivyaprababandam are beign chanted daily in the temple. And I wish to collect a group of women to conduct paavai nombu. I would like to guide us on conducting the rituals in a simple and effective manner.<br />b) Apart from this, what are the other sources to get rainfall, as like in olden days, we used to get thrice rainfall, by conducting some type of rituals, by an ordinary man.<br /><br />Please reply me to email usha.midori@gmail.com<br /><br />Thanks in advance<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11081978903854355126noreply@blogger.com
