Interpretation
One of the defining characteristics of this Universe is that it is designed in such a way that only the Creator can bear influence on the ongoings here
Irrespective of how much man feels that he is on top of all things, everything is in his control; there is something called an ‘’Act of God’’ which disposes of everything than man proposes
Mankutimma, realise that an astrologer can only show you your destiny at best…he cannot change your destiny. Your fate is pre-ordained based on several factors that influence it – planetary motion, your Karma etc…most importantly, it is only the Creator in his manifestation as Destiny that can influence it. Your role here is to perform your duties diligently…face all challenges to the best of your capabilities…increase your skills & capabilities by learning constantly & most of all, develop fortitude & patience; for nothing will come out of you blustering your way patienceless.
