Rains are ever there, even in Kerala, a state fashioned by the rains, where the
landscape architecture is done by Nature Herself !
Venus, the watery planet, moves over to Gemini, to the 12th in India’s
horoscope. It augurs rains, but how much ?
The hot sidereal months of
Kumbham Aquarius ) and Meenam
( Pisces ) are normal in Kerala. Now we are facing Meda
choodu ( the heat waves of Aries ) and there will some reduction of heat
when Edavam (
Taurus ) takes over, from 15th May.
Astrologically, Edava Pathi, the last 15 days of the Sun
traversing Taurus, is full of rains. Last years, rains were less even in Edava
Pathi.
Kerala, normally, is blessed by two rainy seasons, Edava Pathi (
the last half of Taurus ) and Thula Varsham ( when the Sun traverses
the 30 degrees of Libra ). Kerala receives rains thrice the national average.
Annual rainfall is great as Summer Rains also grace Kerala. 440 mm summer
rains on the average for the yearly rainfall scale.
Fierce rains characterise Thiruvathira Jnattuvela, when the Sun
traverses the constellation of Aridra ,
for 14 days and Punartham Jnattuvela, when the Sun traverses the
constellation of Punarvasu,
for 14 days. Also Makiryam Jnattuvela, when the Sun traverses the
constellation of Mrigasira.
Now Kerala has more or less a semi arid, parched look. The rains can change
all that. But Global Warming has affected Kerala. Climate Change has already
occurred. Water Crisis is here to stay !
The Vedic seers gave prime importance to rains. This is indicated by their
prayer
May there be plenty of rains and may the earth become fertile.
( Kale Varshe thu parjanya Prithvi Shasya Shalinee ).
Meteorology was founded by Aristotle and
is considered as an atmospheric science. Jyotis Kalavastha Saastra, Astro Meterology is the science of
the influence of the Solar transits of the constellations to produce
different seasons. All seasons are caused by the earth's transits of the 360
degree Sidereal Zodiac.
The best books on Astro Meterology was by Kepler ( Mysterium Cosmographicum
) and Parasurama, The Krishi Geetha ).
A combination of Meteorology and Hydrology is known as Hydro Meteorology.
Tomorrow ( 15/05/2010), the Sun moves over to Taurus, thus ending the
summer season of Kerala. The summer season is more or less from Dhanus (
Sagittarius ) to Mesha ( Aries ). These five months are reasonably hot. Kumbham ( Aquarius ) and Meenam ( Pisces ) are very hot. Now Mesha ( Aries )
has also become very hot due to Global Warming and Climate Change.
From Edavam ( Taurus ) to Vrischika ( Scorpio ), we have relatively less
hot months. Rains are severe during Edava ( Taurus ), Mithuna ( Gemini ) and
Kataka ( Cancer ). Then rains become less during the months of Simha ( Leo )
and Kanya ( Virgo ), but still there will be intermittent rains. Rains peak
again during Thula ( Libra ) and moderate rains will be there during Vrischika
( Scorpio ) till the summer season takes over.
There are the seasonal cycles of Kerala but then Global Warming and Climate
Change are changing all seasons !
Indian Farmers do the planting basing on the Vedic Astronomical Calender.
The knowledge of sowing and reaping. Such a subject is Bio Dynamics, which is
part of Organic Farming and Anthroposophy.
Here is the Vedic Astrologic Calender.
