Past Life Sins Astrology: Are There Remedies to Reduce the Effects of Past Life Bad Karma?

There are many interesting Hindu beliefs – like past life sins and debts – that might be debatable for many, but for the believers of astrology, these sensitive issues are real. 

Many Hindu scriptures and all the 4 Vedas make a mention of how the karma of the past life affects the present life of a person. 

The past life sins astrology concept isn’t new, yet not many people are aware of the exact developments of rebirth, past life connections, and past life curses. If you’re someone who doesn’t know about these things but wants to know about them, then this karmic guide is made just for you.

Relevance of Past Life in the Current Life

Astrology suggests that every single deed from the past life is carried into the current life. The entire process is related to the cycle of karma and moksha. Only when a soul is able to clear the past life sins that it is able to achieve moksha/salvation (freed from the cycle of taking birth again and again).

The relevance of this cycle (rebirth and suffering) is as follows.

1. A soul isn’t reborn immediately after death. There’s a proper planetary and star alignment for the soul to get back on earth in a mortal body.
2. The type of life that a soul will get upon rebirth depends upon Sanchit Karma – the accumulation of past life deeds.
3. The entire karmic cycle of rebirth in past life sins astrology is known as the dasa system.

What Is the Dasa System in Astrology?

Dasa or Dasha means state of planets in astrology. According to Hindu Vedas, it is this system that decides whether a planet in a rashi (horoscope) will offer blessings and fortune or bring bad luck.

There are 12 houses in a birth chart and the ruling planets of all the houses are different. These planets keep moving from one house to the other. Here’s the catch about these movements – not all the planets are friends, some are enemies too. So, if an enemy planet enters in a house and the ruling planet of that house becomes weak or agitated, it leads to different types of doshas. Some of those doshas are the result of past life sins.

These doshas (curses) that stem out due the past life deeds is best explained by Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra – the only branch of astrology that keeps a record of karma phal. According to it, the 6 most extreme karmic doshas due to past life sins are as follows.

Kaal Sarpa Dosha

Also known as the curse of snakes, the kaal sarpa dosha happens if you have killed snakes in the past life. It is caused by the anger of Rahu and Ketu – also known as the Planets of Karma – in a horoscope. If a person is suffering from the curse of snakes, he or she faces many hurdles like mental restlessness, negativity, poverty, and a disturbed married life. If an astrologer confirms that you have the curse of snakes, here’s how you can remedy it.

1. Recite the Panchakshari Mantra (Om Namah Shivaya) to please Lord Shiva.
2. Recite Maha Mrituyanjaya Jaap and the beej mantra 108 times daily.
3. Offer water to a peepal tree every Saturday.

    

Pitra Dosha

According to past life sins astrology, the Pitra dosha (curses of forefathers) is caused when Rahu enters the 5th House. Pitra shrapp may not actually be because of your own misdeeds, it can also happen due to the ill-deeds of your forefathers.

Remember, there are three types of pitras – according to vastu shastra – that are responsible for protecting a person from curses from 3 sides. When it doesn’t happen, pitra dosha occurs. Its results are unpleasant.

1. It can cause accidents and untimely death.
2. It causes mental disturbance and a person with this dosha leads most of their life in poverty.

That said, the different remedies for pitra dosha are as follows.

1. Offer food to Brahmins exactly 15 days after every Amavasya.
2. Perform the Trapandri Shraad for all the three pitras.
