Astro-Numerology - Lesson 3
By G. Kumar

Astro-Numerology, the perfect unification between the science of Numbers and the Wisdom of the Heavens, was initiated in the West by Pythagoras and by Vararuchi in the East.

To Pythagorus, the mystery of the Universe was
inter-comprehensible in the Notion of the Number. The letters 0 to 9 are numbers and Infinity was defined as a Numberless Number.

Philosophically, when we say everything is Unity, we are talking about Numbers or that "Infinity is the beginning of all things," we are talking about Numbers! 

Effects of Fadic Number Three

(Fadic Number is the number arrived at from adding all the digits comprising your date of birth - see Lesson 1).

THREE - RULED BY THE DIVINE MINISTER
OF THE SOLAR LOGOS, JUPITER .

If the Threeian is YOU!    

Your Numerological Number is 3 and your Life Controller
is the divine planet Jupiter. This wisdom planet has all
to do with trinities & trilogies. Those born under Three are very friendly with 6 and 9.  

They always aspire for greatness, as they can never be
satisfied with working under a shadow. They want to control others. They are stern and immaculate in the implementation of their duties and responsibilities. They love discipline. They obey the Law and make others obey
the Law. The Jupiterians always rise high in Navy Army
and administration. As they implement their duties religiously, they shine in almost all realms where sincerity
and responsibility are called for.

Their drawback is that, as they are devoted to the Law, they force their ideals on others. Even though they are not quarrelsome, they create a lot of enemies. They are proud and vainglorious. They will not serve others. They are annoyed at the slightest adversity. They use 3 12 21 and 30
for the fructification of their efforts.

Their fortunate days are Thursday Friday and Tuesday.
If these days coincide with 3 12 21 30 6 9 15 18 24 27
these dates become fortunate.

Shakespeare, Lord Russell, Winston Churchill and
King George V were born under this number.

Controller of Life - JUPITER

You are controlled by the biggest planet in the Solar
system, Jove or Jupiter. According to Plato, he represents
the regal Self, that is, Wisdom. He is the greatest benefic in the astrological hierarchy. He represents the spiritual, the ethical and the aesthetic aspects of Life.

As you are influenced by Jove, Jovian qualities will be
predominant in you. Jovian qualities are compassion, love for all mankind, loyalty to preceptor & God, love of Knowledge, scholarship & personal magnetism. Personal Magnetism is very good in business and you will shine like the monarch of the sky in the business sphere. Handsomeness is another virtue.

You will be able to talk your way to the top, as you have
fine conversational ability. Rhetoric is one of the arts
represented by Jupiter.

You will be able to win a lot of friends and influence
people easily. You will be well liked by the populace, as
you are a man with special virtues.

Scholarship will grace you in no uncertain way. You will
be well-informed in many subjects, irrespective of the
knowledge you have in your profession.

Oversentimentalism is your drawback. You should be very
careful about believing the words of people. As you are
frank, noble and tender-hearted, you have a tendency to
speak out openly. This characteristic may be exploited
by shrewd people.

In Vedic Astrology, Jupiter represents the royal Self & Absolute Knowledge (Divine Wisdom). He is the indicator of Divine Grace. He represents all sciences and all arts as Knowledge is divine in character. He represents Happiness, Learning & Wisdom.

He rules over three constellations of the Sidereal Zodiac - Alpha and Beta Geminorum ( Punarvasu), Alpha Librae
(Visakha) & Alpha and Beta Pegasi (Poorvabhadrapada).

An Analytical Review

Zodiac Sign - Sagittarius

The zodiac sign representing this number is the divine
Sagittarius. (Do not confuse this with the Birth sign in Astrology). It is a warlike sign represented by a man holding bows and arrows. Its meaning is that life will be full of enemies and that you may be lacking in mental peace and happiness of the timid man who acquiesces to evil forces.

Sagittarians are basically God-fearing people. Their
love of Nature and religiosity stand out as outstanding characteristics.

Sagittarians generally tend towards spirituality.
They are always probing into the mysteries of life
and always trying to find an answer to the riddle of
life.

Sagittarians love both the celestial and the terrestrial.
They always strike a medium between materialism
and spirituality.

Blood pressure and diseases of the digestive tract
may affect you during middle age. The tendency to
obesity should be checked.

In Astro-Gemmology, Jupiter represents Golden Topaz. Wearing this stone on a Shukla Paksha Monday ( fifteen days after the New Moon) will enhance the luck of the Threeians. The Sanskrit text The Jataka Chandrika assigns
Topaz to Jupiter (Devejyasya cha Pyshyaragam). Thursday is the day of Thor or Jupiter (from the Latin Iovis dies & the Sanskrit Brihaspativar ).

Negative Aspect

You may become too idealistic when practical life needs
some business insight and foresight. Your becoming spiritual makes you carry the cross of the Redeemer. You may have to take up other's sins for redemption.

Mantra

Devanam cha Rishinam cha
Gurum Kanchana Sannibham
Buddhibhootham Thrilokesam
Tham Namami Brahaspathim

This sloka, if recited 108 times a day, can ward off the afflictions of Jupiter. This is the moola sloka of Jupiter.

Other Aspects

In Transcendental Philosophy, the Number Three is considered very sacred. Absolute Being is defined as Existence- Consciousness - Beatitude (Sat - Chit - Ananda). The Trinitarian Unity is highlighted in both Hinduism and
Christianity (Om,Tat, Sat & Father, Son, the Holy Ghost) .

In Freudian Psychoanalysis, Mind is an Energy Organization made up of 3 factors - Id, Ego and Superego. In Vedanta, the 3 Gunas make up Nature (Satwas, Rajas & Thamas).

Holistic Medicine or AyurVeda is built upon the theory of the 3 humours (Vata, Pitta & Kapha). Transactional Analysis deals with Parent- Adult-Child formula, and Psychology deals with the three levels of the Mind (Conscious, Subconscious & Unconscious). Dante's Divine Comedy is divided into 3 portions - The Inferno, Purgatorio & Paradiso!

In the next article (in Wild Violet Issue 4), we will deal with the Fourians - who are ruled by the Number Four and by the Moon's Ascending Node (Rahu).
