Astrology & Gemology
About Astro-Gemology , Manley Hall writes in the "Secret Teachings of all Ages " that " The rays of the celestial bodies, striking the crystallizing influences of the lower world, become the various elements. Partaking of the astral virtues of their source, these elements neutrallize certain unbalanced forms of celestial activity & when properly combined, contribute much to the well-being of man". This is the rationale of Planetary Gemology.
Astrology & Yoga
Union via Action ( Karma Yoga )
While acknowledging the fact the the One Universal Substance which compose the differentiated parts of the Universe is all this , one should indulge in selfless service and love for Him. Man has two duties - Duty unto Caesar means we have to do our wordly duties & Duty unto Self or God means we have to do selfless service to our brethren so that we fulfill the divine humanity in ourselves.
There is a poetic verse which says that trees exist for altruism, that rivers exist for altruism, that cows exist for altruism and hence this body is for Altruism or selfless service. The basis of all service is Love. When we love, we serve. Service is divine and service is one of the means to exhaust one's own Karma . Karma is defined as action and all actions have reactions. The Grand Law of Causation, the Law of Cause and Effect, the Law of Retribution is called philosophically as the Law of Karma. So we as composite creatures have done both good and evil and good & evil karmas haunt us. But in order to attain to Self-Actualisation, we should exhaust our karma. As far as karma is concerned there will be backlog and it will be difficult to exhaust karma all of a sudden. But absolute surrender to the Divine is the only remedy and while we tread the Path Celestial, all karmas get burnt up.
In Silence, we have to climb from our own earths to our own heavens, rendering to the Caesar of the outer world the things which are lawfully his, and at the same time fulfilling the Law of Wisdom which will set us up and distinguish us from the ranks of other men. it is true that many adversities and opposition we may have to confront. But these are merely parts of the process and tests of fidelity.
Some people on this Path Eternal complain that they and their friends also are visited by misfortune. But we have to understand that they are wages and Initiation is a process of intensive culture and accelerated evolution. It is our Karma exhausting itself.
We have to understand that the Divine Will is leading us, through every circumstance, towards the Final Realisation. This faith will give us equanimity.
Astrology & Occult Vibratory Chemistry ( Tantra )
Vedanta deals with Absolute Being or Sat. Tantra, on the other hand, deals with Tat, which is both Absolute Being and Relative Being, or Being absolutely Relative and relatively Absolute. Creation is the play & display of Cosmic Intelligence and this Intelligence is defined as Tat in Tantra.

Astrology & Quantum Medicine
Quantum or Holistic Medicine emphasises that the Whole is greater than the sum of its parts and that the patient who has the disease is more important than the disease of the patient! It is linked to Astrology in the sense that both deal with the Universal and are branches of Universal Philosophy. Quality content about Western Holistic Medicine can be obtained from www.holistic-alt.com and about Vedic Holistic Medicine from www.chakrapaniayurveda.com Books as Carriers of Wisdom Books are left by geniuses for the benefit of posterity.
Heaven's treasures they bring, their sufferings count the pain,
Or they pay the gifts of knowledge with their lives!
Dante's Divina Commedia or Goethe's Faust were never the product of the Rational Mind. They were the products of the Intuitive Mind. Books can instruct, they can teach & they can elevate man from the mundane to the sublime !
