Happy Vedic New Year!
I'm sending you all a link to my favorite Vedic astrologer and his comments on the New Year.
I've been laughing/crying about what they named this year..
below from link

Dating back to antiquity, each New Year has been assigned a Sanskrit name to describe the over-riding theme or purpose of the year. The Vedic calendar year, March 2011 to March 2012 is called Khara, which, roughly translated means "unpalatable". This suggests a challenging year ahead, (and also one of enormous opportunities for growth). Real progress always comes through change, which can often be a bitter pill to take.

Here is a link to the article...

1. "We come to this world to learn and to grow." - but why does it have to
be so stinking hard sometimes?! I know, rhetorical question. :)

Thanks Melissa! Happy Belated Vedic New Year! :hug:

Chakrapani has a comforting manner with his words. I look forward to his forecast next week. :hi:

2. He's a real gem and of all the readings I have had, been one of the most insightful
astrologers I have come across. Western astrology seems to tell me a lot about what is going on. Vedic astrology to me, frames my destiny and what I came here to do in this life.
:hug: :hi:

I've gleaned so much from so many; life is good. :hug::hi:

5. I hope it is a good year for you!
I hope great prosperity and positive change mitigate any 'unpalatable' qualities. :hug:
