The 9th day of Garbottam of 2015-2016 began after 5
PM on 6th January 2016 and ended after 5 PM on 7th January
2016.
The 195th day
effect in my place of observation will be from 3 AM on 16th July
2016 till the afternoon of 17th July 2016.
The corresponding fortnight will be
from 10thOctober 2016 to 23rd October 2016.
10th October 2016 begins with deficit rainfall
yogas or anavrishti yogas.
(1) Mars will be in Pooradam, the star that is crucial for
water. And Mars, the fiery planet is in the lead with all the other planets
towing behind it.
(2) Saturn is in front of Venus.
(3) There is no closeness between Mercury and Venus.
These show a dry spell or a retreat of Monsoon.
However there are some interesting combinations also at this
time.
They are
(1) Mercury and Jupiter are conjunct which is a good
rainfall yoga.
(2) Mercury has become combust as it comes within 14 degrees
from the Sun. Mercury or Venus in combustion must give rainfall.
(3) In a couple of days after 10th October,
Mercury will be directly behind the Sun while Venus continues to be in front of
the Sun. Usually this line-up when it happens with Mercury and Venus within 30
degree span would be associated with good rainfall. At this time in October, the Closeness between
the two (Budha – Shukra sameepyam) is not there. So we have to see how this
line-up works.
As Mars is in the lead with other planets behind it, there
will be a tug of war like struggle between ativrishti
and anavrishti rainfall yogas.
A logical conclusion from this will be that the SW Monsoon would have been almost over in most places.
There will however be some places where rainfall will
be occurring if Garbottam is helpful in those places. The 9th
day of Garbottam will indicate whether such a rainfall trend will happen in
Chennai and my place of observation.
The observation of the 5
factors for day-9 are as follows:
(1) Wind:- The previous
day (8th day) ended with good breeze and pleasant twilight. The winds
continued for some time. On the day time of 9th day (that is on 7th
January) occasional pleasant winds continued after 10 AM. The winds were not as
high as on the 8th day but very gentle. The direction was from North east.
Result:- This is more than average factor for rainfall in
the corresponding period as far as wind factor is concerned.
(2) Rain:- Nil.
Result:- Does not indicate rains in the said period.
(3) Lightening:- Nil.
Result:- Does not indicate rains in the said period.
(4) Thunder:- Nil.
Result:- Does not indicate rains in the said period.
(5) Clouds:- The sky became clear at night (first half
of 9th day). The morning twilight saw pinkish streaks of clouds
formed as rows of small bunches of flowers. After a brief lull, whitish clouds were
seen floating across the sky from North and North east while blue tinted clouds
were occupying all around the horizon. I spotted a duck like cloud at around 9
AM.
Clouds were abundant especially from 10 AM onwards. They
were mostly Culumus
clouds. By noon these clouds grew
everywhere with their edges shining like a halo by Sun’s rays.
By 3 PM, it all changed and long streaks of blue tinted
clouds were seen floating across. These clouds looked like fishes with convex shapes.
Dark and white clouds were mixed across the sky. At the time of sunset, these
long streaks and convex shaped ones were there in the opposite side of the sun
giving an appearance as though fishes are swimming across the sea.
Result:- Cumulus clouds are not features of good
Garbottam whereas Cirrus clouds and long streaks of clouds are. The aquatic
formation in the morning and evening hours are favourable for rainfall in the
early and late night on the 195th day.
3-some features:-
(1) Terrestrial :- Behaviour
of birds and animals satisfactory.
(2) Atmospheric :- Of
the 12 features noted in my blog on Garbottam,
(1) gentle breeze was there, though lesser than on the previous day (8th
day). (2) Bulky clouds were there and scorched by the Sun. (3) Aquatic shaped
clouds were less for most part, but convex shaped ones resembling fishes were
seen in the late afternoon – in the last quarter of the day. (4) Wind direction
was from the North and north east. (5) At times Sun was hidden behind clouds.
(6) The evening after 4 PM was cool and pleasant (7) Sunset was pleasant and
beautiful.
(3) Planetary:- (1)
Planets and stars appeared pale. But I did not watch Saturn and Mars all these
days. They must be clear and not hazy. If Saturn looks hazy that alone would be
a powerful factor to bring famine conditions. But I guess it is not hazy as the
atmosphere is clear and the stars are clear. (2) Except Jupiter all the other
planets were in Southern declinations. Planets in northern declinations are
desirable. (3) Sun was red in colour at the time of sun set.
Interpretation:-
The 195th day impact:-
The 9th day Garbottam was less in strength compared to the 8th
day Garbottam. Therefore a continuation of night time rainfall of a lesser
degree can be expected on 16th and 17th July. These dates
coming in the fortnight corresponding to the 2nd day of Garbottam
will be wet as the nature of 2nd day of Garbottam favours a wet
fortnight.
Impact on the corresponding
fortnight (10th October to 23rd October):- A short
lull in the first half of this fortnight followed by rainfall in the 2nd
half of the fortnight in my place of observation. The intensity will be less
than that of the previous fortnight.
SW Monsoon:- As explained in
the beginning of this article, contradictory combinations are there during the
corresponding fortnight. SW Monsoon would have become weak as combinations for plentiful
rainfall are not there. Whatever rainfall yogas are there, they will benefit a
few places. From the 8th and 9th day Garbottam in my
place of observation, Chennai and parts of Tamilnadu are likely to see rainfall
in this fortnight.
In the upcoming
fortnights, two dates are important. One is 27th October when
the closeness between Mercury and Venus begins again that will last till the
end of the year 2016. Going by past records, when this begins, it will trigger
a season of rainfall. So the NE Monsoon will have to formally
begin by October 27th.
The next date is 16th November 2016. From that day onwards, Mars, Saturn
and Sun will start transiting in alternate signs until December 11th
- the same combination that had given copious rains to Chennai in November –
December 2015 and also in the past (discussed
in 7th day of Garbottam).
This means the next 3 days (10th,
11th, 12th and 13th days of Garbottam must be
good in my place of observation.
However there
is a hitch as Venus will be close to Saturn
within 1 degree from 12 Noon
tomorrow (8th January 2016) till 7 AM on 10th January.
This means Venus, an important planet for rainfall will be defeated in planetary war with Saturn.
(1) Saturn in front of Venus gives
famine conditions. (2) A Planetary war on a day of Garbottam mars rainfall for several days in the corresponding fortnight.
Already the fortnight (10th October to 23rd
October 2016) that is under scrutiny for this 9th day Garbottam has
Saturn in front of Venus.
The corresponding date now in the Garbottam period also had
Venus behind Saturn and getting defeated by Saturn for nearly 2 days which
means 2 fortnights.
Will
there be a hiatus in NE Monsoon due to this from 23rd
October and 15th November?
Strong Garbottam on 10th, 11th and 12th days (from the noon of 8th January
to the morning 7 AM of 10th
January 2016) is going to be crucial for good NE Monsoon.
This will also be a good
learning for us as we will know how the counter-acting astrological features
must be judged.
