NE Monsoon graces Kerala !


Despite criticism that Thula Varsha or the North East Monsoon is far away, she is dot on time. It rained heavily in Trichur yesterday. It rained heavily in Madras the day before.

Tamil Nadu receives more rains than Kerala in this North East Monsoon phase. In Kerala rains are less this year, with the result we have unwanted power cuts. 

We hope it pours heavily again. If not Kerala is in for more power cuts. 


The N E Monsoon has a direct bearing on the economy, as Mr Monsoon is the Finance Minister of India !

Solar Transit of Pollux !

Right from morn, it has been raining. If not heavily, drizzling. More rains have to come. Otherwise Kerala is in for power cuts !

The Solar transit of Pollux ( Punartham Njattuvela ) will end on 19th and unless we have heavy rains, we are in for trouble. How ridiculous for a state to depend on rains for electricity !

An improvement in Punartham Njattuvela

We are receiving some of the fiercest rains for the last half hour, thus
proving the aphorism " Punartha thadiyan Poozhi therippikkum", as Punartham
Njattuvela is in full swing. We need more, more rains and the catchment
basins at idukki and Sabari Giri should be full. It seems Kerala is covering
up !

Climate Change ?

Even though it rained decently yesterday , still that feeling of alarm and despondency is not over. Now at the moment there are no rains in Gvr. There are reports from the North that Mausum has not even started ! That Monsoon is deficient by 31%. A scary prospect. More rains are needed in the next four days. Otherwise there will be power cuts in Kerala. If that is the situation in Kerala, what about the rest of India !

Global Warming may be affecting astro meterological trends and may be responsible for climate change ! Let us watch and see for the next four days !

Lack of heavy rains in Kerala !

The situation is precarious in Kerala. The water catchment basins at Idukki and Sabari Giri have only water for five days. Heavy rains have not yet lashed Kerala. During the fag end of Makiryam Njattuvela, it rained, but there were no heavy rains. Fierce rains have not made their presence felt so far.

For 15 minutes, it rained cats and dogs in Guruvayur just now. But the duration was not long. If fierce rains do not take over, I shudder at the prospect of power cuts !

I wont to be able to work on FB for longish hours !

We hope the fag end of Thiruvathira will be characterised by heavy rains. If not, Kerala is doomed !




At night

Alarming situation in Kerala.

It rained decently from 0800PM to 0900 PM, but then this is not enough to fill the Idukki and the Sabari Giri reservoirs. It is drizzling now. Hope there will be heavy rains.

People will laugh when they come to know that a state depends on Monsoons to generate electricity. No monsoon, no power, that seems to be the situation in Kerala. 

Hail the voters who elected this Govt !

Solar Transit of Alpha Orionis or Aridra

It has been raining incessantly in Trichur. Not heavy rains. Those who yearned for heavy rains are disappointed. This is Thiruvathira Njattuvela in full cry. Heavy rains can destroy crops and houses. Crores of loss will be reported if heavy rains take over. But then drizzles are good, as it is good for groundwater recharge, No surface runoff ! Ideal climate is always sunny days and rainy nights !

About Monsoon Express





The famous Thiruvathira Njattuvela or the Sun's transit of Alpha Oriionis began today. There was a heavy downpour at 0700 AM for half an hour and then there is a sunny interlude now. Now it is sunshine , but at any moment the sky can go dark. Thiru muriyathe peythu nirayunna thiruvathira. It will rain ambrosia in Aridra !

Rains galore in the month of Gemini in Kerala

The rains have been continuing for two days and now there is a break. It rained almost for 48 hours. Unlike last year's Makiryam Njattuvela, there were no fierce rains. In some places in Kerala, the rains took on the Dance of Destruction, destroying some homes and wells. The dams must have got enough water. Kerala was under the threat of power cut.

Despite its demerits, Rain is a beauty Goddess, evoking memories of wet experiences. She generates beauty and is responsible for the green landscaping effectuated by Nature. She gives grace to this tiny province and is the manifestation of Grace !

A Prelude to Makiryam Njattuvela !







Tomorrow Makiryam Njattuvela starts. Now it is raining heavily in Guruvayur ! The sky was brimming with pessimistic prophecies and now the rains are coming.

Last year's Makiryam Njattuvela wrought havoc. For 36 hours it rained non stop and we had a darkened atmosphere. It devastated rural Kerala !

Tomorrow I am off to Thirunavaya for my Mother's Sraddham. Hope rains will not hit Thirunavaya tomorrow.

Rohini Njattuvela Strikes !




There were not much rains yesterday, but I awoke at 0300 AM to see the lights go off. The reason was obvious. It was raining. It rained for half an hour. This is characteristic of the solar transit of Rohini 4 or the fourth quarter of Alpha Tauri or Aldebaran. Makiryam Njattuvela begins on 7th and rains are expected to intensify.


On 21st, Thiruvathira Njattuvela will take over and there will be many sunny interludes to accompany the intermittent downpours. Thank God it is raining every month in God's own country !

Astro Meteorology is right again !

Astro Meteorology's prediction that rains will start from Rohini Njattuvela ( Solar Transit of Aldebaran ) cam true, as it rained well at night in Trichur. Now the sky is overcast and rains can come at any time in Kerala. The South West Monsoon hit the Andamans on 20th and is expected to reach Kerala on 29th. We will have torrential rains !

Karthika Njattuvela, the Solar Transit of the Pleiades strikes !




The Indian Astro Calender was proved right, as when Karthika Njattuvela began on 10th, it heralded the rains. It started raining at 0700 PM yesterday and rained continously for 12 hours ! I couldnt even work on FB, because of the heavy thunder and lightning. I stopped working on FB at 0900 PM.

Our Astro Calender says that it will start raining from 10th May and rains will intensify after 29th, when the Solar Transit of 15th degree of Taurus or Edavam takes place.

While this is Astro Meteorology's perspective, Meteorlogy will say that rains are due to depressions in the Indian Ocean or the Bay of Bengal, giving it some fancy names such as La Nina or El Nino !

Here is a photo of paddy fields inundated by yesterday's rains !

One yearn for rains !






It is a very hot day today and one yearns for the rains. The South West Monsoon will begin on 29th May, but before that rains are expected to appear after May 10th, when the Solar transit of the Pleiades or Karthika Njattuvela begins.


May there be plenty of rains and may be land become fertile, Kale Varshe thu parjanya prithvee sasya shalini !

Water Scarcity during Summer







Now there are newspaper reports that many parts of Kerala are facing acute water shortage.

Rain water harvesting is not done properly. The immense amount of rains received from the two monsoons goes out into the sea. There is no proper planning by the authorities.

During these three summer months, the shortage is going to be more acute.

Nature's reservoirs like paddy fields and forest like areas are being
destroyed by some people who do not believe in the wisdom of Nature.

I have a house in a village and there is no scarcity of water there. This is because of the proximity of the paddy fields, some canals and the large temple pond nearby, which act as Nature's aqua reservoirs.

Nature's water reservoirs are being destroyed. Wells are being covered, paddy fields are destroyed, sarpa kavus or serpeant troves are destroyed. No wonder this has happened.

Now till the Sun's transit of half of Taurus ( on May 29th ), Kerala is in for big trouble. Many are affected by sunstroke as well.

In olden times, all houses were having a sacred grove/ sarpa kavu associated near it. No physical snakes are meant. Sir John Woodroffe's manum opus was the 'Serpent Power".This book is abound the Kundalini, the serpeant power coiled in mortals.

To awaken the Kundalini in us, the sarpa kavus were maintained. There is a saying that the ponds will dry, if we destroy the sarpa kavus. Some antipaganists, who do not revere Nature, destroyed these sacred groves and hence we are facing this problem !

Now the Sun is transiting Alpha Pegasi ( Pororuttathi ) and will be
transiting Alpha Andromed ( Uthrattathi ) from 17th onwards. These are dry spells and the landscape is having a
parched, semi arid look.

By 2015, many West Asian countries will be out of water. India also will be severely affected.

If Kerala's state is like this, what about the rest of India ?
