प्राणायाम :प्राणायाम और औरा

औरा : 
मनुष्य के शरीर से सदैव एक प्रकार की प्राण विद्युत निकलती रहती है । इस बायो इलेक्ट्रोमैग्नेटिक विद्युत धारा  का निर्माण सूक्ष्म शरीर के निर्माण में भाग लेने वाले न्यूट्रॉन कणों की तीब्र गति के कारण होता है । जड़ अणुओं की गति एक प्रकार की विद्युत उत्पन्न करती  है । विद्युत का प्रवाह  आपने चारो और एक चुंबकीय क्षेत्र का निर्माण करता  है [इलेकट्रोड्यनमिक्स ]। इसी प्रकार शरीर की कोशिकाओं में उन धातुओं और रसायनों की समुचित मात्र रहती है जो उत्तेजित होकर विद्युत धारा  का निर्माण करते हैं । कालांतर में यह विद्युत धारा अपने चारो और एक चुम्बकीय क्षेत्र का निर्माण करते जिसे  औरा कहते हैं । वैज्ञानिक इसे बायो प्लाज्मा , कॉस्मिक एनर्जी, बायो इलेक्ट्रिसिटी ,वाइटल फ़ोर्स,लाइफ फील्ड , एनर्जी मैट्रिक्स आदि नामों सम्बोधित करते हैं । यह प्राण विद्युत स्थूल शरीर से कुछ इंचों से लेकर 3 फ़ीट की दूरी तक फैला रहता है । एनर्जी मैट्रिक्स को ही आभा मंडल या बोलचाल के रूप में औरा कहा  जाता है ।

हमारी आँखों की देखने की एक निश्चित सीमा है , हमारे नेत्र केवल उन्हीं प्रकाश तरंगों को पकड़ पाते हैं जिनकी वेव लेंथ 380 -760 मिली माइक्रोन के बीच में होती है । इससे कम या अधिक वेव लेंथ के प्रति नेत्रों के ज्ञान तन्तु असंवेदनशील रहे हैं जिनके कारण  हम उन्हें नहीं देख पाते हैं  । औरा इसी  सीमा के अंतर्गत आता है जिसे सामान्य दृष्टि से नहीं देखा जा सकता है । वैज्ञानिक उपकरणों के द्वारा इसका मापन  और फोटोग्राफी अंकन संभव है इसी दिशा में में किर्लियन फोटग्राफी विकसित की गई जिसके द्वारा औरा का छायाचित्र लेना आसान हो गया है ।

व्यक्ति की स्थिति,स्वास्थ्य ,आयु,थकावट,मूड और भावनाओं के अनुरूप औरा परिवर्तित होता रहता है ।

हरेक व्यक्ति का औरा उसके विचार और व्यक्तित्व के अनुरूप  होता है। विचारवान ,चरित्रवान ,प्रभावशाली और संकल्पवान व्यक्तियों के औरा चमकीले - दीप्तिमान होते हैं जबकि साधारण  मनुष्य का  औरा क्षीण और धुंधले होता हैं | व्यक्तित्व की औरा पर  भारी छाप होती है ।

औरा केवल प्रकाश ही नहीं है उसमें ताप, विद्युत और चुम्बक के भी गुण हैं । यानि यह सशक्तों से प्रभावित होता है और दुर्बलों  को प्रभावित करता है । औरा अपने निकटवर्ती क्षेत्र को,संपर्क में आने वाले व्यक्तियों को , स्पर्श में आने वाले पदार्थों को सुनिश्चित रूप  प्रभावित करता है । 

कई व्यक्तियों का साथ रुचिकर,सुखद , प्रेरणादायक प्रतीत होता है  | या राह चलने वाले एक अपरिचित को देख कर अनुभव होता है की वह चिरपरिचित है और अनायास ही उससे आकर्षण हो जाता है इसका कारण  दोनों के औरा की समानता होती है । जबकि कई बार किसी से अकारण घृणा, अरुचि, अप्रसन्नता ,खीज जैसी प्रतिक्रिया होती है और उनकी समीपता कष्टकारी लगती है इसका कारण दोनों के औरा की आपस में विषम प्रतिक्रिया होती है । 

आभामंडल स्थूल,सूक्ष्म और कारण शरीर के अणुओं के स्पंदन से निर्मित होता है ।  तीनों शरीर से निकलने वाला प्रकाश एक दूसरे से मिल जाते हैं और एक मिश्रित आभामंडल बनाते है  ।

औरा को 5  भागों में विभाजित किया जाता है ।
हेल्थ औरा :
यह स्वास्थ्य औरा है जो रंगहीन होता है और शरीर के चारो और इंच के चौथाई भाग तक  फैला रहता है । त्वचा से समकोण बनाती हुई अनेक  नाड़ियां होती हैं ।इन नाड़ियों से थोड़े थोड़े समय पर सर्च लाइट की भाँती तेज़ प्रकाश  की किरणें निकलती हैं जो शरीर से बाहर निकल कर तिरोहित हो जाती हैं । हेल्थ औरा में घनी घनी प्रकाश किरणों की समानांतर रेखाएं होती हैं । यह आवरण मुख्य रूप से भौतिक शरीर को सुरक्षा प्रदान करता है यदि इस आवरण में थोड़ी भी असमान्यता आ जाए तो शरीर की प्राण-ऊर्जा बाहर निकल जाती  है और व्यक्ति बीमार पड़  जाता है ।

वाइटल औरा :
यह औरा सूक्ष्म शरीर से विकरित होता है और इसे एक्टिव औरा भी कहा जाता है । सूक्ष्म शरीर से निकलते समय इसका रंग हल्का गुलाबी होता है और शरीर से बाहर आते ही यह नीले रंग का हो जाता है ।  यह औरा इच्छा शक्ति द्वारा नियंत्रित और प्रभावित होता है ।

 कॉस्मिक औरा :
इस औरा में मनुष्य की भावनाएं और इच्छाएं प्रतिबिंबित होती हैं । यह अभिव्यक्ति या जीवन दर्पण का क्षेत्र है ।इस आभामंडल में मनुष्य की ईर्ष्या, द्वेष,काम,क्रोध और दूसरे  मनोभावों के अनुसार  औरा का रंग बदलता रहता है ।

औरा ऑफ़ करैक्टर या चरित्र का औरा :
यह औरा स्थाई लक्षणों वाला होता है । मनुष्य के वर्तमान  और भूतकाल चरित्र के विशेषताओं को दर्शाता है ।

स्पिरिचुअल औरा या आध्यात्मिक औरा :
यह औरा शुभ प्रकाश  किरणों से निर्मित होता है । इसमें पवित्रता का अंश विद्यमान रहता है ।साधू,संत,ऋषि,मुनि,साधक ,मास्टर, हीलर्स में यह औरा चमकीले दैदीप्यमान रूप में पाया जाता है ।

प्राणायाम और औरा 
औरा जन्म जन्मांतरों के प्रयास ,अभ्यास और संस्कारों के आधार पर निर्मित होता है । मनुष्य आपने प्रयास और संकल्प द्वारा इसे बदल और बढ़ा सकता है । एक समान्य व्यक्ति इस बने बनाये  औरा के अनुरूप  अपने स्वभाव और कर्म को बनाये रखता है जबकि एक दृढ निश्चय का स्वामी अपने अभ्यास द्वारा  इसमें भारी परिवर्तन ला सकता है ।

सामान्य रूप से सांस लेने से हम उतनी की प्राण शक्ति खींच पाते हैं उससे बस शरीर का  काम चलता रहे ।  पर प्राणायाम से विधिवत सांस लेने से हम उचित मात्रा में प्राण शक्ति अपने में खींच सकते हैं और उसका शरीर में भण्डारण कर सकते हैं । शरीर में उपस्थित प्राण शक्ति ही हमारे औरा को सबलता प्रदान करती और हमारी रोग प्रतिरोधक शक्ति को बढ़ाती है ।

वायु में प्राण तत्व प्रचुरता में विद्यमान रहते हैं जिसे हम साँसों द्वारा सरलता से ग्रहण कर सकते हैं ।प्राणायाम केवल सांस लेना या छोड़ना भर ही नहीं है बल्कि अपने दृढ संकल्प द्वारा वायु में उपस्थित प्राण तत्व को धारण करना उसका भंडारण  करना और उसका सम्यक वितरण करना होता है ।

प्राणायाम द्वारा औरा को उभारा और मजबूत किया जा सकता है । इसके इलेक्ट्रोमैग्नेटिक प्रभाव को बढ़ा कर मनुष्य ही नहीं  वृक्ष-वनस्पति और जड़ पदार्थों पर भी प्रभाव डाला जा सकता है । एकाग्रता और संकल्प के बल पर आपने औरा  के प्रभाव से हज़ारों मील दूर बैठे व्यक्ति को प्रभावित किया जा सकता है ।

मनुष्य अपनी अज्ञानता के चलते प्राण का अधिकांश भाग व्यर्थ के क्रियाकलापों में , व्यर्थ की कल्पनाओं में , व्यर्थ के चिन्तन में , तनाव,अनिद्रा,चिंता में व्यय कर देता है | प्राण-तत्व के क्षरण से प्राण तत्व की न्यूनता हो जाती है जिसके चलते कई प्रकार के मानसिक और शारीरिक विकार जन्म लेते हैं , और मनुष्य समय से पहले ही काल का ग्रास बन जाता है ।

प्राणायाम में प्राण का व्यवस्थित विकास किया जाता है । प्राण का अनावश्यक क्षरण रोका जाता  है , क्षरण की क्षति पूर्ति  की जाती है और प्राण को अधिकाधिक मात्रा में खींचा जाता है ।

विचार और भावनाओं के सतत प्रवाह से स्थूल, सूक्ष्म और कारण शरीर के सूक्ष्म अणुओं में स्पंदन होता है और उसी से आभामंडल का निर्माण होता है । औरा का प्रभाव  क्षेत्र प्राणायाम के माध्यम से दूर दूर तक फैलाया जा सकता है  जिससे वातावरण को प्रभावित किया जा सकता है । कहते हैं महावीर  और गौतम बुद्ध के आभामंडल का प्रभाव 100 मील तक रहता  था जिसके कारण उनके प्रभाव में आये हुए विपरीत स्वभाव के प्राणी जैसे सिंह और हिरण पास पास बैठे रहते थे ।

प्राणायाम :प्राणायाम और मस्तिष्क

मानव-मस्तिष्क 

मनुष्य शरीर में सबसे अधिक संवेदनशील एवं सक्रिय अंग मस्तिष्क है ।  तीन पाउंड [१. ३ किलोग्राम ] से भी कम वजन का अखरोठ जैसी आकृति वाला दो गोलार्द्धों में बंटा  हुआ मानव  मस्तिष्क भानुमति का पिटारा है ।मस्तिष्क का बायां गोलार्द्ध बुद्धि और वाणी का और दायां गोलार्द्ध भाव संवेदनाओं का संचालन करते हैं । 

मस्तिष्क के सामने वाला भाग   सेरिब्रम संवेदनाओं और इच्छाओं का केंद्र है,बुद्धि,विचारशीलता और भावनाएं भी  यहीं उत्पन्न होती हैं । मस्तिष्क  का पिछला  हिस्सा सेरिबेलम है जो शरीर  संतुलन बनाने और विभिन्न अवयवों की गतिविधियों को  स्वसंचालित करने की  भूमिका निभाता है । रिफ्लैक्स -एक्शन का नियंत्रण भी यही हिस्सा करता  है । मस्तिष्क का तीसरा भाग मेडुला ऑब्लांगेटा अंगों के स्वसंचालित प्रक्रियाओं को नियंत्रित करता है जिसमें सांस लेना, दिल का धड़कना ,रक्त संचार,मांसपेसियों का  फैलाना- सुकडना ,निद्रा,जागरण ,शरीर की कोशिकाओं का निर्माण-मृत्यु  आदि शामिल है । 

मस्तिष्क में भूरा  पदार्थ बुद्धि का और सफ़ेद पदार्थ क्रिया का संचालन करता है |  मस्तिष्क का दाहिना भाग शरीर के बायें  भाग और बायाँ भाग शरीर के दाहिने भाग का संचालन करता है ।

चेतन-अचेतन मस्तिष्क 

इसके अतिरिक्त मस्तिष्क का एक और विभाजन है भौतिक जानकारी का संग्रह करने वाला  चेतन मस्तिष्क और स्वसंचालित नाड़ी संस्थान को प्रभावित करने वाला  अचेतन मस्तिष्क ।  चेतन मस्तिष्क तर्क-वितर्क विश्लेषण, हिसाब-किताब सूचनाएं एकत्र करने जैसा काम करता है। अवचेतन मस्तिष्क सूक्ष्म मस्तिष्क है जहां हमारी सारे यादें, बचपन की यादें और इस जन्म की यादें दबी रहती हैं।शरीर के हार्मोन एवं रसायन को संतुलित या असंतुलित कर सकते हैं। चेतन मस्तिष्क की सीमाएं हैं अवचेतन मस्तिष्क असीमित है। चेतन भौतिक जगत और भौतिक शरीर तक ही काम कर सकता है। अवचेतन मस्तिष्क सूक्ष्म जगत में कहीं भी यात्रा कर सकता है।

वैज्ञानिकों  ने स्वीकार किया है की शरीर की क्षमता से चेतन मस्तिष्क की क्षमता 10 गुनी  अधिक होती है और चेतन मस्तिष्क की क्षमता से अचेतन मस्तिष्क की क्षमता 10 गुनी अधिक होती है । यानि शरीरिक क्षमता से अचेतन मस्तिष्क की क्षमता  1 00 गुनी अधिक होती है । अचेतन मस्तिष्क शरीर के ऑटोनॉमस  नर्वस सिस्टम को नियंत्रित करता है । 

न्यूरॉन्स 

मस्तिष्क के क्रियाकलापों को  करने के लिए मस्तिष्क में 10  अरब नर्व सेल्स [न्यूरॉन्स] होते हैं ।ये न्यूरॉन्स आपस में नर्व फाइबर से जुड़े रहतें हैं जिनकी संख्या खरबों में होती है । नर्व सेल्स से सम्बंधित नाड़ी तन्तु समस्त शरीर में फैले हुए हैं  जिन्हें दो भागों में बांटा जाता है ,सेंसरी  नर्वज जिनका सम्बन्ध ज्ञानेन्द्रियों जैसे देखना, सुनना,चखना,सूंधने स्पर्श करना से है तो दूसरा भाग मोटर नर्वज का है जो कर्मेन्द्रियों जैसे चलना,खाना ,नहाना,पढ़ना आदि को नियंत्रित और संचालित करता है । 

मस्तिष्क-विद्युत 

मस्तिष्क केवल सोचने विचारने के ही काम नहीं आता है बल्कि उसमें पैदा होने वाली विद्युत पूरे शरीर का संचालन करती है    मस्तिष्क की कुछ   कोशिकाएं डायनमो का कार्य करती हैं वे ग्लूकोज़ और ऑक्सीजन का रासायनिक ईंधन जलाकर  उसकी ऊर्जा को विद्युत में बदलती हैं ।लगभग 20  वाट की शक्ति वाली यह विद्युत धारा मस्तिष्क और  शरीर की अन्य कोशिकाओं का क्रिया संचालन करती है ।

मस्तिष्क तरंगें 

मस्तिष्क में उपस्थित न्यूरॉन  परिस्थितियों  के अनुसार अल्फा ,बीटा ,थीटा    एवं डेल्टा तरंगें उत्सर्जित करते रहते  हैं ।हमारे  ब्रेन में चार प्रकार की तरंगें होती हैं। जिस तरह हृदय की तरंगों को ECG  द्वारा मापा जाता है, उसी तरह ब्रेन की तरंगों को मापने का यंत्र है EEG  (इलेकट्रो-एंसफलोग्राफी  )। ब्रेन की चार तरह की तरंगें होती हैं जिन्हें हम बीटा, अल्फा, थीटा एवं डेल्टा कहते हैं। बीटा तरंगों में हमारा ब्रेन पूरी तरह सक्रिय रहता है जिसमें हमारी दिमागी तरंगें 13-50  साइकिल/सेकंड तक चल रही होती हैं। यह पूर्ण जागरूक अवस्था है। अल्फा तरंगों में हमारा चेतन मन थोड़ा शांत हो जाता है, इस समय हमारी दिमागी तरंगें 8 -12 साइकिल/सेकंड  चल रही होती हैं। इसे हम आधी जागी और आधी सोई हुई अवस्था कहते हैं यानी अर्धसुप्त अवस्था। थीटा तरंगों में हमारा चेतन मन पूरी तरह शांत होकर निद्रा में चला जाता है। इसमें हमारी दिमागी तरंगें 4 - 8  साइकिल/सेकंड  हो जाती हैं। इसे हम पूर्ण निद्रा की अवस्था कह सकते हैं। इस अवस्था में हम खूब सपने देखते हैं। इस अवस्था में हम अपने गहरे अवचेतन मन के नजदीक होते हैं। डेल्टा तरंगों में हम गहरी निद्रा या गहरी समाधि जैसी अवस्था में पहुंच जाते हैं जहां हमारे दिमाग की तरंगें पूरी तरह शांत होकर 1 - 4 के साइकिल/सेकंड  चल रही होती हैं। इस अवस्था में हम पूर्ण रूप से बेहोश होते हैं।हमारे दिमाग में विचार दो ही अवस्था में होते हैं। या तो बीटा लेवल में चिंता की सक्रिय अवस्था में या फिर थीटा लेवल में जहां हमारे विचार सपनों के रूप में बहने लग जाते हैं। अल्फा अवस्था ध्यानस्थ निर्विचार की अवस्था है। गहरी कल्पना में हम अल्फा अवस्था में होते हैं। आपने कई बार अनुभव किया होगा कि जब भी आप किसी गहरी कल्पना में डूब जाते हैं, तब कौन आया, कौन गया, आस-पास से क्या आवाजें आ रही हैं, आपको बिल्कुल पता नहीं चलता। जब आपको कोई जोर-जोर से पुकारता है या आपको हिलाता है, तब जाकर आप कहीं चौकते हैं और होश में आते हैं। इस अवस्था को एक प्रकार से अल्फा स्थिति कहते हैं क्योंकि इसमें आपका चेतन मस्तिष्क और सक्रिय होते हुए भी सक्रिय नहीं था, गुम था। अल्फा तरगें मस्तिष्क को विश्राम की स्थिति में ले जाती हैं । 

प्राणायाम और न्यूरॉन्स 

मानवीय बुद्धिमता का रहस्य इस बात पर निर्भर है की मस्तिष्क के न्यूरॉन्स कितने हैं और वे कितनी सघनता से एक दूसरे से जुड़े हुए  हैं । प्राणायाम के  प्रभाव से न्यूरॉन्स की सक्रियता और सक्षमता बढ़ती है और अधिक से अधिक  संख्या में न्यूरॉन , न्यूरॉन फाइबर द्वारा एक  दूसरे से सघनता  से सम्बंधित होते जाते हैं । इससे मस्तिष्कीय क्षमता को कई गुणा बढ़ाया जा सकता है । बुद्धिमता को असाधरण रूप से विकसित किया जा सकता है । 

प्राणायाम मस्तिष्क के दोनों गोलार्द्ध 

मस्तिष्क के दोनों गोलार्द्ध  कार्पस कैलोजम के माध्यम से आपस में जुड़े रहते हैं इसी  के कारण उनमें जानकारी और भावनाओं का आदान-प्रदान होता है ।   दोनों गोलार्द्धों की अपनी अपनी प्रबल क्षमता है | सामान्य  स्थितियों में  मस्तिष्क के दांये-बायें गोलार्द्धों में से एक भाग  अधिक सक्रिय और प्रबल रहता है और दूसरे भाग पर अपना वर्चस्व बनाये रखता है । 

बायां भाग बौद्धिक चिंतन को और दाहिना भाग भावना और संवेदना की वृद्धि करता है । मनुष्य का सर्वांगीण विकास तभी संभव है जब उसकी बुद्धि और भावनाओं के मध्य संतुलन और सामंजस्य हो । अक्सर एक भाग की सक्रियता और दूसरे भाग  की निष्क्रियता के चलते कई प्रकार के मनोविकार उत्पन्न  हो जाते हैं जैसे खंडित मानसिकता, मंदबुद्धि, अवसाद, चिंता,तनाव,खिन्नता , आत्महीनता ,आदि । 

प्राणायाम करने से दोनों गोलार्द्धों  के क्रिया-कलापों में संतुलन और सामंजस्य स्थापित होता है ।प्राणायाम मानसिक संतुलन को साधने और सुस्थिर रखने के लिए  रामबाण है । अनगिनत शरीरिक रोग मानसिक असंतुलन या मानसिक व्याधियों के चलते उत्पन्न होते हैं । जिन्हें साइको -सोमेटिक रोग कहते हैं ,शरीर के 80  % रोग इसी की श्रेणी में आते हैं । शरीर और मन का अविछिन्न सम्बन्ध है , प्राणायाम द्वारा मन संतुलित और स्वस्थ होता है तो शरीर के रोग भी नष्ट होने लग जाते हैं , सशक्त  मस्तिष्क शरीर की रोग प्रतिरोधक प्रणाली को मजबूत करता है और शरीर को निरोगी और तेजवी बनाता है ।  

प्राणायाम और चेतन-अचेतन मस्तिष्क 

ऑटोनॉमस  नर्वस सिस्टम को किसी भी प्रकार  प्रभावित करना काफी मुश्किल काम है लेकिन यह ऑटोनॉमस सिस्टम प्राण के प्रभाव को सहजता से स्वीकार कर लेता है । इस प्रकार प्राणायाम के द्वारा अचेतन मस्तिष्क की सुप्त शक्तियों को जागृत और नियंत्रित किया जा सकता है । ऑटोनॉमस नर्वस सिस्टम के क्रियाकलापों में नई चेतना  आती है और उनके सभी कार्य नियमित एवं स्थाई रूप से होने लग जाते हैं । एंडोक्राइन ग्लण्ड्स सही प्रकार से कार्य करने लगते हैं और मानसिक और शरीरिक रोग दूर होने लगते हैं ।  

प्राणायाम और मस्तिष्क तरंगें 

 मानव मस्तिष्क में दाएं और बाएं  गोलार्द्धों से निकलने वाली तरंगें अनियमित होती हैं , प्राणायाम के अभ्यास से मस्तिष्क की तरंगों के क्रम में आपसी सामंजस्य होता जिसके फलस्वरूप नर्वस सिस्टम की क्रियाशीलता बढ़ती है और वह सुचारु रूप से कार्य करने लगता है । 

प्राणायाम के समय मस्तिष्क के दायें -बाएं दोनों भागों के मस्तिष्क तरंगों की सक्रियता अत्यधिक बढ़ जाती है और प्राणायाम के बाद भी यह  तरंगें कुछ समय तक  इसी  स्थिति में रहती हैं , जिसके चलते दोनों गोलार्द्धों के मध्य समंजस्य का पता चलता है ।इस प्रकार साधक अपनी मानसिक शक्तियों का पूर्ण विकास कर सकता है ।

EEG द्वारा प्राणायाम के बाद साधक में अल्फा तरंगों की बहुलता देखी  गई है  । प्राणायाम के बाद मस्तिष्क से अल्फा  तरंगें 8-12  साइकिल /सेकंड निकलती | 


सामान्तया मानसिक सक्रियता की स्थिति में मस्तिष्क  से बीटा  तरंगें निकलती हैं जिनकी फ्रीक्वेंसी 13 -50 साइकिल/सेकंड एवं इससे अधिक होती है । पूर्ण विश्राम युक्त जागृत अवस्था में अल्फा तरंगें 8-12  साइकिल /सेकंड से निकलती हैं  । ये अल्फा तरंगें  मस्तिष्क को शांत और शिथिल करती हैं और उसके  कार्यक्षमता को बढ़ाती हैं  जिसके फलस्वरूप ह्रदय गति कम होती है  और कार्डिओ -वैस्कुलर की कार्य क्षमता बढ़ती है । 

प्राणायाम और मस्तिष्क के क्रियाकलाप 

प्राणायाम के अभ्यास से मस्तिष्क और शरीर में ऑक्सीजन की खपत की मात्रा काफी कम हो जाती है जिसके परिणाम स्वरूप मेटाबॉलिक रेट भी काफी कम हो जाता है । इसके चलते शरीर की  कोशिकाएं गहरे विश्राम में चली जाती हैं , शरीर में ब्लड लैक्टेट का स्तर काफी कम हो जाता  है  इससे रोग दूर होने लगते हैं ।  

इस प्रकार हम देखते हैं की प्राणायाम शरीरिक और मानसिक स्वास्थ्य की रक्षा और वृद्धि के लिए एक उपयोगी विधान है ।

Sun Occupies the 12th house

Sun :

 The Sun is the most auspicious presence in the celestial arena which provides pleasing impacts upon the native’s life as it will provide a  good path of life. It glows brightly in the sky reminding us of its power. Without the Sun, there can be no life. In our astrological chart, the Sun represents our main identity, personality, and outward appearance. However, on a deeper level, it represents our father figure. A father figure is a powerful person in our life that has a significant effect on each of us - for good or bad. Unfortunately, with the Sun in the twelfth house, there is unusual suffering related to the father figure.

12th house :

 The 12th  house is one of the most spiritual houses in our astrological chart. It represents issues related to spirituality, secrets, karma, charity, confinement, institutions, suffering, cosmic consciousness, meditation, escapism and service to humanity. When the Sun is placed in this house, we often become an intuitive, the type of person that is extremely sensitive to other people’s feelings and emotions.

12th house indicates spiritual guidance, prayer, and clandestine activities; foreign life, distant lands, imagination, dreams, bedroom, cloister, enclosure etc. 

Individuals with the Sun placed here are compassionate, caring and self-sacrificing. A loss of boundaries about oneself and others often occurs when planets are placed in the 12th  house. Wherever the Sun is placed in our chart, is where we are forced to find our oneness with God and find out who we truly are. 

General characteristics :

2. They won’t be friends with everyone around but will share a peaceful bond with the society and in a professional arena while on the other part, they would be more satisfied in solitude but they do believe in keeping many people in good relation but they are not among the social animals.
3. The  natives having Sun in 12th house carry a leading approach and personality wherever the stand and move from.

Father :

The father might have worked a lot, traveled a lot or simply did not communicate with the individual while growing up or he may be hospitalized for a chronic illness, or abandoned the family, completely for  unknown[secret] reasons .
5. In all  instances ,there is a feeling that one does not have a father. This results in a deep-seated loneliness and a constant search for that fatherly energy.

Ketu in the 12th House : Salvation ,Detachment , Mystery and Psyche

Ketu :

Ketu or the South node of the moon is a shadowy planet i.e. as per Vedic Astrology, placed always in diagonal opposition (180 degrees apart) to Rahu- the North node of the Moon. With an imagery of a headless, half-bodied, smoky planet, Ketu is generally known as the planet of illusion, detachment, spirituality, asceticism, secrets, apart from various other things.Ketu is a  mysterious planet  with complete uncertainty about its form, existence, activity, thoughts, tendencies,  and behaviour.

It points us to the parts of ourselves that are most deeply wounded and hints at the heaviest karma that we have carried into our current life.Problematic areas relating to the 12th house are unseen health problems, addictions, excessive escapism, and an overwhelming feeling of powerlessness.

The 12th  is also the house of solitude and confinement and both of these experiences support the work of the 12th  house.12th  house planets are energies turned inward; they allow us to integrate knowledge and work through our shadow.
