ASTROLOGY AND BLACK MAGIC

 

Introduction:

"Mere pe kisi ne kuch kar diya hai" is the usual complaint one hears from people facing unexplained problems. People are now beginning to face black magic and its ill effects. But is there really something like black magic? Does it really work ? And if it does work , how does one counter it? Let us explore the topic.

What is black magic? 

In order to understand black magic, one must learn and understand magic. Magic is as old as mankind itself. The history of magic shows that it existed in egypt, rome, India, China, Arabia, Tibet etc. A simple definition of  magic is that it coerces spiritual beings or forces. Magic tries to manipulate the spirits- or impersonal spiritual forces seen as flowing throughout nature- mechanically , in  the same way that one uses electricity by turning it on or off. 

According to available literature there are two types of magic white ( natural ) magic and black or demonic magic. Black magic is also a critical part of sorcery and  sometimes of witch craft. Whenever magic is intended for the harm or for the detriment of a person , or home or nation  it turns black.. Black magic uses talismans, spells, incantations and evocation of spirits. 

Hence it is intent and the motivation which seperates the two forms of magic. White magic is also very old and is used for curing diseases, blessing people etc. when the intent is for personal gain or wealth or causing harm to to others , magic becomes black and evil. 

How does black magic work?

The mechanism of  black  magic works on 2 simple principles viz:

1.      The human aura: 

The human aura is always the first object of attack for a practitioner of black magic. Hence one hears and reads that a tantrik uses hear or clothes of the person which contains the essence of the aura. 

2. powerful  visualisation:

The black magic practioner has developed the art of powerful visualisation which is transmitted to the person my making a doll or wax replica of the person involved. It is also called the Law of Correspondences and hence what is performed on the doll , really happens to the person concerned. 

Can black magic be detected from the birth horoscope?

There are definite interlinkages between astrology and black magic. The horoscope is a device which indicates propensity to black magic. Hence certain combinations in the chart do make a person more prone to the ill effects of black magic. These combinations are:

- moon and rahu in the 8^th house or

- a severe kal sarpa yoga with moon and ketu in the 5 th house

- excessive planets in the 8^th or 12^th house. 

Symptoms of black magic:

Most of the times people confuse bad events with black magic or acts of sorcery. The most common symptoms to  look  out for in case of  black magic are: 

1.      Objects  such as uncut lemons, sindur , or human shaped dolls being found in the house.

2.      Bout of unexplained sicknesses which yield no medical explanation

3.      A sense of uneasiness or heaviness in a  particular section of the house.

4.      In certain cases strange sounds, or  voices may be heard. 

Even in the above mentioned cases, there must be a thorough rational examination of the events  before one jumps to black magic. Hence a  succession of bad events can be an astrological influence if one is passing through a bad phase or fate period. 

Black magic  v/s  superstition:

In most cases people confuse black magic with a string of bad incidents involved. Please do not mix apples with oranges. ONE MUST RATIONALLY AND INTELLIGENTLY eliminate all options before coming to the conclusion of black magic. DO NOT FALL PREY TO PEOPLE WHO SCARE YOU WITH BLACK MAGIC REMEDIES. 

Remedies for black magic:

After having confirmed that one is a victim of black magic, the simplest thing to do is use simple amulets to protect oneself and the home. The nature of the amulet would be dictated by the religions inclinations one has and believes in. For example the Hindu would benefit from a Swastika, the Christian from the Cross and the Muslim by the words ' Allah Akbar' .
The amulet derives power from your faith in your God. The Egyptians believed in the Scarab or even the Cat.

Conclusion:

There is an unseen world of sprits and  other powerful entities. Generally they don’t interfere with our world if we don’t interfere with them. There are professional sorcerers who undertake to cause harm or detriment but we must remember 'AS YOU SOW SO SHALL YOU REAP'.
