Dig Bala Examined – Part 2 – The Planets in Astrology

The general concept of Dig Bala is that the planets will do better supporting certain angles on the chart than others. When a planet is closer to your best Dig Bala position, it not only supports the angle, but also supports your target.

Planets and Dig Bullet

Dig Bala’s positions for each planet are as follows:

First Dig Bala House — Mercury and Jupiter
Fourth House Dig Bala — venus and the moon
Seventh House Dig Bala — Saturn
10th house Dig Bala — Mars and the sun

Let’s examine this a bit more. To keep things simple, we’ll assume a natal chart is being used as an example.

first house Dig Bala: Mercury and Jupiter. The first house is the realm of life lived through the body, in real time. It shows our experiences and the actions we take. Both Mercury and Jupiter are planets of intelligence, the mind. Mercury Jupiter rules the four dual/mutable astrological signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces, using traditional rulers). As these dual signs rule, both Mercury and Jupiter are planets that allow us to make adjustments when unexpected things come our way.

Mercury it is a planet of flexibility, curiosity, playfulness and neutrality. These traits are very important in life where we must adjust, accommodate and be flexible. Having a good sense of humor and the ability to laugh at everything is a pretty good trait on a day-to-day, moment-to-moment basis, in the real life of the first house. This moment-to-moment experience of the body is related to things like our diet, our clothing, and the ability to make adjustments and be flexible. The ability to communicate and interact with people is also important. Mercury is the communicator. Mercury’s neutral, intelligent, and curious nature perfectly facilitates First House goals. Furthermore, the freedom and autonomy of the first house allows its abilities to manifest through form. Mercury is compared to Lord Vishnu, the maintainer and manifester of the universe.

Jupiter it is a planet of optimism, hope, grace and the big picture. These traits help us overcome unexpected setbacks in life. Optimism and hope that eventually everything will work out exactly the way it’s supposed to be is a wonderful trait to have as we move through life in real time. Jupiter is the planet of good judgment and awareness of good and evil. This is very important when we have to make decisions based on ethics, values ​​and principles. It’s best when our sense of morality, judgment, and values ​​come from within ourselves and feel controlled by our own power, rather than by others. Jupiter is also related to teachings and learning from life experiences. The greatest teacher in life is our experiences and thoughts. Jupiter in the first house allows a person to learn through his experiences. This not only facilitates the goal of the first house but also facilitates the goal of Jupiter, the Guru.

Fourth House Dig Bala — Venus and the moon. The fourth house is where we wish to go within our own hearts to feel good and connect with the deepest part of our psyche that is beyond anything in the world. It is that inner inner sanctum. Both the moon and Venus are planets of comfort and feeling. These are the two feminine planets that also share the goal of bringing comfort, peace and happiness to our hearts.

Moon It is the main planet of peace and emotional comfort. It shows our intuition, that area of ​​our psyche that maintains the delicate balance between our body (Ascendant) and our soul (Sun). Whatever experiences we are receiving through the body, if they are not leading us toward our soul’s highest purpose, the moon lets us know by generating a feeling that we listen to or ignore. If we are disconnected from our heart, the moon is more likely to bring about painful emotional longings and longings, not pure feelings that we trust. A fourth house moon is anchored in that deeper, calmer part of who we are, nurturing and supporting that area of ​​life.

Venus it is the main planet of beauty, order and harmonious interactions with other people. All of these things support the deeper goal of the fourth house, which is peace of mind. When our personal relationships develop lovingly and we manage our desires effectively, the things we have in our lives do not disturb our peace of mind. The willingness to compromise with others is another great lesson from Venus. Skill in this area supports our emotional well-being. The fourth house elevates the nature of Venus by allowing our desires to flow from a place of emotional depth, sensitivity, and insight. When the things we want come from a selfish perspective or one that is not connected to our heart, we suffer a lot. The happiness (Venus) that springs from our heart (fourth house) leads to peace and love.
