Astrologer advises Pisces, Virgo to perform merit-making with light

Astrologer Tosaporn suggests that during the Buddhist Lent, two zodiac signs should perform merit-making activities involving light to mitigate the influence of Rahu in their horoscopes.

Tosaporn advises those born under Pisces and Virgo to visit temples and engage in activities such as offering candles, refilling oil lamps, donating towards electricity bills, and contributing to education, which is considered the light of wisdom. These acts are believed to reduce the intensity of Rahu’s influence during this period.

Pisces individuals, born between March 15 and April 13, and Virgo individuals, born between September 17 and October 17, are specifically encouraged to participate in these merit-making activities. Tosaporn shared this advice on social media, aiming to guide people in these zodiac signs to find ways to counterbalance the astrological effects.

“This Buddhist Lent, I recommend those born under Pisces and Virgo to seek opportunities to make merit with light to counteract Rahu’s influence in their horoscopes.”

Merit-making activities, particularly those involving light, are deeply rooted in Thai Buddhist traditions and are believed to bring positive energy and counteract negative astrological influences.

Offering candles during the Buddhist Lent, known as Khao Phansa, is a common practice, symbolizing the light that dispels darkness and ignorance in one’s life. Refilling oil lamps at temples is another traditional act that signifies keeping the light of wisdom burning.

Donating towards electricity bills at temples and schools is another modern adaptation of this traditional practice, ensuring that these places of learning and worship remain illuminated. Supporting education is also viewed as a way to spread the light of knowledge and wisdom, thereby enhancing one’s good karma.

Tosaporn’s guidance comes at a time when many are seeking ways to improve their lives through spiritual practices. The Rahu, known as the shadow planet in Vedic astrology, is often associated with challenges and obstacles. By making merit with light, individuals can symbolically and spiritually diminish these negative influences.

Pisces and Virgo, both water and earth signs respectively, can benefit from these practices not just astrologically but also by fostering a sense of community and spiritual growth. Engaging in these activities provides a way for people to connect with their cultural and spiritual heritage, while also seeking personal and collective well-being, reported Khaosod.
