What is the meaning of Guru Chandal Yog?
In Traditional astrology Guru Chandala yoga is formed when Guru (Jupiter) is in conjunction with Rahu. Before analyzing the yoga it has be clearly understood that Jupiter transits a sign in one year. Similarly Rahu transits a sign in roughly 1 ½ years. The conjunction between Jupiter and Rahu will take place every 7- 8 years. The conjunction will last for around one year which means that all persons born during the year will have Guru Chandala yoga.
In astrology, the planet Jupiter is known as Guru which means the teacher. Jupiter is considered a Brahmin and teacher of Devas and is spiritual and sattwik in nature and also signifies wisdom.
Rahu is known to be moh-maya and illusionary. It is known to contain all the virtues and vices through which we are stuck with. It is the very opposite of Ketu which shows liberation of our soul. Rahu gives illusions of this world.
After that what will happen is not clear. Native comes and ask pin pointed questions from Astrologer. When will I get married? When will I be promoted? When will I be transferred? When Will I get job? When my married life be ok etc.? Nothing concrete one gets out of the Yog. What one should tell the client that your teachers have been Chandal (work in morgue) or what?
