स्तरीरु त्वद् भवति सूत त्वद् यथावशं तन्वं चक्र एषःपितुः पयः प्रति गृभ्णाति माता तेन पिता वर्धते तेन पुत्रः ||

Padapatha:

स्तरीः ऊँ इति त्वत् भवति सूतः ऊँ इति त्वत् यथावशम् तन्वम् चक्रे एषः पितुः पयः प्रति गृभ्णाति माता तेन पिता वर्धते तेन पुत्रः

Pratipadartha:

स्तरीः - like barron cow; त्वत् - one form; (न)भवति- does not become (water);  सूतः -makes water; त्वत् - another form; यथावशम् - as he likes; तन्वम् -(his) body; चक्रे -turns (does); एषः - this (Parjanya); पितुः -from father; पयः - milk (water); प्रति गृभ्णाति -accepts (gets); माता - mother (earth); तेन - from that (water); पिता - father (heavens); वर्धते -grows; तेन - from that (water) पुत्रः -son

Mesha:

The plus point during the month of May 2026 is the financial position. It is far from excellent. You have money to purchase anything under the sun, during the first fortnight, thanks to benefic shukra in own sign identical with 2nd from your rasi. As budha is under check from 16th in benefic 2nd, you will not be able to make investments. You are holding back for want of certain information. You have planned pleasure trips for the second portion of the month but it does not happen as some of your friends are not available. Consequently, the programmes get cancelled. In the first half, there is lot of pressure to break your own performance record, ravi is exalted over your rasi.

This creates lot of anxiety and tension but also brings success and respect. During the second half, there are expenditure due to penalties, fines and taxes. This cause some ebbs and tides in monthly finances. You have excellent health and take any work load till 12th of May. But thereafter you are too tired - from 13th you should not overburden yourself with physical activities and work related tensions. There are good friends by you side (that is what you think!) who offer liberal lip service. You are able to save some amount for a long time which will help you. Most of the persons of this sign may be transferred long distance and need to restart life. Some do not go away but they are forced to review the existing relationship with close relatives.

To meet certain obligatory expenses, certain expenditure paired with false prestige, you will spend a lot during first half. There is also lot of tension and anxiety as you are afraid that you will be side tracked. In the entire month, you need to keep calm and cool and should not carry the burden of your importance.

Under any circumstances, you should not quit your job unless and until you have another appointment order on hand. Shani in 10th is always dangerous as he cause upheavals in professional area. First, go to an astrologer (Hello, microphone testing, it is me!) to find out as to whether you have shani in 10th in your birth chart. If you have shani in 10th in your natal chart, then the things will be more horrible. Otherwise, you will not sink to the bottom of problems. Any advice by elders and peers is unpalatable. You do not have any faith in God or anybody!

He is the Charles Brownson (Soft hearted tough guy!) of your life. This man drives you crazy with his plans and you are mind blown and need to work at a feverish pitch!

Thee are always some issues related to close relatives that cause discomfort. It is a strong double bond which is breaking. You are fed up with your so called relatives. There are lot of issues going on related to properties.

Marital life is so so only but nothing goes wrong. Loans are available to clear loans. You should be wise to take feasible loans to clear off the hard ones. Also, if you contemplate to purchase high end articles for a comfortable living, considering loans. Shukra transit in own sign but in adverse 6th. You are full of courage. You will get support and appreciation from unexpected corner.

You should not talk too much and divulge your secrets to fair-weather friends!

There are naturally some financial strains as shani transits in the 2nd house.
Meena:

There may be either sever strains in relationships or terrible financial crunch during the first half of the month. Or you may just land up in a soup due to your blunt talking style. Considering benefic budha in the 2nd house, if you are aware of this weakness, you can stay clear. Your charisma goes up during the second half. In the entire month, there are more occasions that require physical stamina. Your wealth position is excellent due to shukra in benefic (own sign) 3rd and 4th. However, shukra in 3rd is under vedha.

This is not laziness but recoiling from tensive seasons. There are some losses, if you are not careful - particularly when you purchase electronic gadgets.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Parjanya
BJP will surely make inroads in southern states. The ruling party displays greater acumen in forging relationships and steering towards control.   And this will further strengthen, 'I told you so!' dictum of the ruling party. It remains to be seen whether BJP is able to replace ruling entities in South (I would not say South India, but will prefer to say, South of India) totally.  The handling of the situations by the central government is appreciated by a lot of people as ravi is exalted in 10th from rasi. The government has resources in tact and there is no worry about finances. In fact, shukra in own sign in 11th during first half brings more wealth. Judiciary is well balanced and there is a minor tug of war of words between government and the bench which is natural due to combustion of shani.
Vedas do not accept untouchability. But if Vedas (were to) accept untouchability then I would reject the Vedas.

― Dr. B.R. Ambedkar
Not everything is tilting towards any one political party. Now let us look at the dawn of Vaishaka maasa. Ravi is exalted of course but in the 8th from the lagna of lunation chart. This does not herald good news - it shows that sacrifice is done by somebody and this leads to tears. The BJP will not have victory ready to have a bite. There are some bitter results which it has to digest. However, this will lead to consolidate in next loksabha elections. Here conjunction of 11th and 12th lords shows an investment that is made for future growth. The slogans like Vote chori, choor sarkar, Puppet of government, SIR of conceit etc., and related press conferences or calling the PM with choicest foul titles  do not go well with the public.

The people are totally happy on how the elections are conducted. This will further demean the prestige of opponents. Nevertheless, 6th rahu causes some restlessness to the ruling party - how long can any one listen to magician stories, devoid of statistics, meaning and rhyme or rhythm? Before closing down his pancher shop, the cycle mechanic (well, he is not Maruthi car mechanic!) looks along the forlorn road. The Lordship (s- plural form is not known) should know - Placing the problem (aka power sharing) on the back burner will not work all the time; creating another problem (like propping another leader) or buttering both the parties - can not go on forever. Oppositionist never learns - but is well-versed in blaming someone else for the failure.  Principe ereditario is always Vittorioso (victorious) and the Election Commission is Uomo malvagio (evil man)!
