What Your Indian Guru Sign Means

The astrology of India is similar to the West, in that Jupiter is seen as a symbol of learning, good fortune and growth. Known as Guru, your Jupiter zodiac sign in Indian (Vedic) will be different to the one you know from your Western chart. How can you use it best?
Abundance! Good fortune! In Indian astrology, Jupiter is known as Guru or Brihaspati. What is your Guru sign and what does it mean? How can you use this part of your Indian horoscope to draw on good karma and attract more?
Your Indian Guru Sign in Astrology
India, Pakistan and Bangladesh have 1.5 billion people (more than one-fifth of the world’s population) and a large number of different languages and belief systems. What India has in common with us in the United States, Australia, Britain and the rest is astrology. In fact, we speak the same language of the planets, although the systems are different.
Jupiter (also known as Guru in India) is a symbol of good karma – even great karma – and just knowing your Guru sign can help you unlock benefits to use in this lifetime, according to Vedic (Indian) astrology. In India as in the West, Guru is associated with abundance. With ‘more’ and whatever enriches your life. If you have Guru in Taurus or Scorpio, for example, you may find it easy to make or save money. Yet – in general – Guru is about all sorts of different abundance or ‘gifts.’
Are you on Pinterest? I have been collecting some beautiful images of Guru from around the web, and they all show one very interesting common feature – the lotus. This connects perfectly to the Western idea of Jupiter, which is tied to the oak tree. In fact, you could say that the lotus is the oak of India. Let’s see how you can grow good things by doing some life gardening.
The Lotus as a Jupiter Symbol in Indian Astrology
The similarities between the Western Jupiter and the Indian Guru are astonishing. Same ideas, different cultures. In Western astrology, Jupiter is symbolised by thunder. Rain then comes and washing things clean ready for new growth. In India, the lotus which Guru sits on, removes pollutants from the water. It detoxes. This idea of Jupiter/Guru cleansing, healing and preparing you for new growth is really what the thunder/rain and lotus/water symbolism is about.
The Romans associated Jupiter with acorns that grow into oaks – the wood of the oak then becoming the foundation of any successful enterprise. ‘From little acorns, big oak trees grow’ is a Jupiter phrase. Jupiter ‘feeds’ the economy or growth. The lotus is also a food, particularly in China and Japan, India’s trade partners.
Growth and Expansion Through Guru
Sometimes Guru (Jupiter) looks as if he is growing out of a lotus. This tallies with Jupiter’s key words – growth, expansion, increase, abundance. In fact, astronomy tells us, Jupiter is a ‘gas giant’ planet. This is a very old idea in astrology coming to us from the Romans, over 2000 years ago. Jupiter is big. The image below comes from a great website called Astroved.
Guru in Capricorn Cycles and India’s Growth
It is interesting to watch Guru in Capricorn cycles and India’s growth. Capricorn rules the mountain goat who climbs to the top of a pyramid-like structure. In astrology this is a symbol for successful, ambitious people (and countries) who go higher and further, even if it takes them years (perhaps a whole Guru cycle, which is 12 years).
Capricorn Guru people do well in ‘the system’ or any hierarchy, like a large corporation or a university. They do well in high society. In India, we channel these ideas into the culture and history and think about the first great Indian empire, for example, led by Chandragupta Maurya, a leader and organiser like no other. He rose from nowhere, which is a classically Capricorn thing to do. By 302 B.C. Chandragupta was ruler of the first great Indian state.
He had a personal guard of female warriors – Indian Amazons – and was a master of statecraft, leaving behind his Arthashastra, which is virtually his instruction manual. It is still used today in Indian business schools. It is based on the artha (prosperity) of a kingdom, and the saying ‘My enemy’s enemy is my friend’ is a famous quote from the work.
Guru (Jupiter) in Capricorn cycles helped ground India in this phase of her development. If you have Guru in Capricorn you may have karmically inherited some ancient knowledge of how to respect the system, master it and make it work for you.
Jupiter (Guru) is moving back into Capricorn as Great Britain leaves the European Union and there has already been much talk of new trade deals between the two countries, in 2019. The world hierarchy is changing and India is back again!
Guru in Sagittarius Cycles in Indian History
Sagittarius in the West is associated with the Ninth House and Jupiter itself. In the East, it is similar, but once again, channelled through Indian culture. Guru in Sagittarius cycles in Indian history have produced the rise of the Brahmins or philosophers who perform the rituals of life and death. Believed to be dear to the gods, Brahmins and holy men observe a 12-year ritual called the Kumbh Mela – the largest gathering on earth. Note this is as 12-year event. Jupiter (Guru) returns to the same zodiac sign every 12 years. If you have Guru in Sagittarius you have inherited past life wisdom and knowledge, and perhaps have served as a teacher or holy person in some way.
Guru in Virgo Cycles in Indian History
Here the focus is on the cattle herders, shepherds, hunters, trappers, bird-catchers, artisans, craftsmen, wood and metal workers. The big Capricorn structure needs a solid base of dedicated and dutiful people. This is a Virgo and Sixth House matter so we find the working world of India develops and grows – in true Guru style – on such cycles. Layer upon layer of modern India is built as Guru goes through Virgo. If you have Guru in Virgo then you have karmically inherited the ability to dedicate yourself to service and duty. In Western astrology we associate Virgo and the Sixth House with the body, mind and spirit connection. If you have Guru in Virgo, perhaps you are drawn to yoga or meditation – or vegetarianism. All of this would fit the East-West astrology that has taken off in the late 20th and 21st centuries online as India connects to the West.
Guru in Scorpio Cycles in Indian History
In Western astrology, to have Jupiter in Scorpio means you benefit from marriage and mortgage – family and property – legacy and inheritance – and sex and money! If you are born with Guru in Scorpio in the Indian system, perhaps you have past life memories of the Kama Sutra. The erotic played a huge role in Indian art, and the Kama Sutra (4th century A.D.) is one of the best-known Indian exports to the United States, Britain, Australia and beyond.
It is the oldest surviving Hindu textbook on erotica, written in Sanskrit and it was aimed at the nagaraka or (then) modern man and it is really India’s ancient version of The Joy of Sex. It is significant that illustrations of the lovers show them draped in fabulously expensive jewellery. Scorpio is not Scorpio without a price tag somewhere in the game of love. The book is also concerned with psychology, a Scorpio concern, as the dynamic between couples (much of it hidden) is certainly the domain of this sign and its rulership over the Eighth House of sex, death and wealth. Scorpio is really about the games people play and so is the Kama Sutra. If you have Guru in Scorpio you may be born ‘knowing’ all this on some level. The Kama Sutra today is used to educate prostitutes in India on safe sex. Again, this is a uniquely Scorpio concern, as is AIDS and H.I.V.
If you have Guru in Scorpio perhaps you are an old hand at the game of love and are born with great wisdom about the complicated relationships and marriages that take place between all-too-human, human beings. Perhaps you were a courtesan in Pataliputra!
Guru in Libra Cycles in Indian History
The Taj Mahal must surely be the ultimate expression of Guru in Libra. Jupiter in the sign of the couple – the eternal lovers. Diana, Princess of Wales, was famously photographed in front of the Taj Mahal when she was slowly ending her marriage to Charles, Prince of Wales. The monument itself is a testimony to the memory of Mumtaz by Jahan.
Shah Jahan’s beloved wife Mumtaz did not so much receive a tomb, as one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The building has beautiful symmetry, harmony and balance – like the famous scales of Libra. Work began in 1632 on the structure, which today shows two equal pathways stretching towards a monument with equal rows of dazzling white columns on either side. In Western astrology, Libra is about ‘equal but different’ and ‘different but equal.’
The monument becomes more important on Guru in Libra cycles – more meaningful to the culture and to the world. There is a story that Jahan planned a black Taj for his own tomb as a mirror image on the other side of the river. Again, this is purely Libra – the scales always show two sides – what in slang today is called ‘the other half’ or ‘my other half.’
It has flourished through numerous Guru in Libra cycles, when a plan drawn for the garden in 1789 was recovered in the 199o’s. If you have Guru in Libra your past life inheritance is to understand partnership in all its forms, and to know love. It is possible that your own relationships or marriage/s are drawn from soul contracts between lives.
Guru in Aquarius Cycles in Indian History
Aquarius the water-bearer in Ancient Rome supplied the community – the Roman baths. An Aquarius was literally the man who carried water in jugs, to ‘feed’ the group. From this idea, over the centuries, has evolved the concept of Aquarius as a symbol of diversity, equality and community. If you have Guru in Aquarius, you may be born ‘knowing’ how a group works and perhaps your friends go back several lifetimes with you.
The British relationship with India shows Guru in Aquarius cycles very powerfully. We think of the old gymkhana clubs – but more importantly the freedom movement. Aquarius is about the collective aiming for people power, towards a goal. The British Raj which ruled until 1947, led by the rise of the East India Company, is the background player in these Aquarius cycles, because they were so much about group rebellion. Aquarius, ruled by Uranus in Western astrology, is about revolt. (Uranus was found and named in 1781 when the American revolution ended with defeat for the British at Yorktown – and The Declaration of Independence became a reality for America’s many diverse groups).
We associate ‘independence’ as a key word with Aquarius thanks to Uranus, its ruler and the Congress Party in Bombay in 1885 had just one Briton in the ranks, the fiercely independent Allan Octavian Hume, the ‘rebel in the Raj.’ He was the son of a Scottish radical (radical being the other key word for Aquarius). The Indian freedom movement from 1885 to 1947 produced a star – Gandhi – who bought millions of Indians together against the differences of caste, wealth or religion. By the 1930s Congress had become that Aquarian ideal – a diverse, united community.
If you have Guru in Aquarius you may have past life memories of this period in India. Maybe you have other lifetimes in other countries where you were very much part of a team, club, society, association, trade union, political party or similar. You have a gift for friendship and for group psychology which you can use in this lifetime.
Guru in Aries and Indian History
Aries is ruled by Mars in Western astrology – the God of War. There is no shortage of that in Indian history; notably the Calcutta Hindu-Muslim riots of 1946. These kinds of angry religious differences (anger being an Aries key word) also haunted the great Indian leader and ruler Akbar. If you have Guru in Aries you may be born knowing how to fight, when to fight (and when not to). You may have past life memories of wars or battles, perhaps in India. This is the story of Pakistan for you, perhaps, or another conflict, like the First World War or Second World War.
To be born with Guru in Aries is to inherit the blessings of courage, energy and ‘fight’ instinct. This can be of tremendous help if you are ‘fighting the good fight’ in a peaceful campaign for a cause you believe in. Of course, to reincarnate with Guru in Aries may mean you remember the price of violence too – or just anger. In this lifetime your challenge and reward is to thrust forward, like Aries the ram, and push hard – perhaps push back – but without the heavy price to pay of other lifetimes.
Guru in Cancer in Indian History
If we are talking about Cancer, we are talking about family, and that has to mean Indira Gandhi and her son Rajiv. As Nehru’s daughter, Mrs Gandhi is the mother symbol we associate with Cancer and its ruling planet the Moon. The Moon in Western astrology is associated with motherhood because of its cycle of 28/29 days, the length of a woman’s period or ‘moonthly’ monthly cycle. The crab is a symbol of a person who carries his/her home around, as part of identity and security. Again, the Gandhi family with their tremendous patriotism, are a symbol of that.
The family itself is of huge central importance to India and if you have Guru in Cancer look to your mother for the possibility of a karmic connection – or your grandmother.
Guru in Pisces in Indian History
Pisces in the West rules the relationship you have with God, the angels and your demons too. It is about your inner self, your soul and your spirit. It describes what you feel about organised religion and also your own private faith in the universe. In fact, thinking about the universe and what it means – and how it works – is a hallmark of Pisces, the sign of the fishes. I am sure you know the fish in Christianity is an ancient symbol.
In India, spirituality is in everything and everybody. It may be expressed through astrology, for example, or Buddhism. There is a mysterious quality to Pisces which is ruled by Neptune, associated with the ocean. If you think about the world’s great oceans all joined together, you come closer to the world of Guru in Pisces, which is about ‘born knowing’ about the mysteries of existence.
In India, the word Bharat describes circular time – mythic time. It co-exists with linear time, like the clock or watch, and the time on a computer or mobile phone. This duality of the two fishes is neatly expressed by this idea of ‘two times.’ In India as you are seeing in this story there are also two astrologies – West and East. You can look up your Jupiter sign in one system and it will be the same planet, but in a different sign in the other. Yet, both Jupiter signs work together in your chart.
I am sure you know the famous Indian nod, which is half yes, half no. If you have Guru in Pisces you may have lived through any number of Guru in Pisces cycles in the history of that country and be ‘born knowing’ about spiritual, religious or scientific mysteries. Born blessed, too, which is what Guru is all about. Like the Western Jupiter, Guru is a blessing.
Guru in Leo Cycles in Indian History
Jupiter in Leo, in Western astrology, is associated with great good fortune from the world of babies, children or young people. You may be a High School teacher with a very successful track record, for example, or the proud godmother of a famous godson. You might be blessed as the parent of twins who bring joy to your life – and so on. In India, it is much the same – the idea of leading the young and having ‘heirs’ to your throne is really a blend of Western and Eastern astrology. The lion is a powerful symbol right around the world and in the West we still associate Leo with The Lion King.
The era of Akbar the Great coincided with Guru in Leo and Akbar himself was born on Sunday 15th October 1542 at 2.00am, which is important. The Sun rules Leo in Western astrology and Sunday is literally ‘Sun’s Day’ from the old Roman. Akbar was proclaimed king at the age of 13 and was a famous leader despite being unable to read or write.
He has been painted with a golden sun behind him and is a potent cultural image of Leo, despite being born (as we would say in the West) with the Sun in Libra. The Golden Temple of Amritsar remains as his legacy – gold being the Leo colour. He gave the Sikhs the land on which it stands, which is a classically Leo generous gesture!
Akbar reigned for forty years. In astrology, Jupiter returns to the same zodiac sign every 12 years, so he was there for three batches of Jupiter cycles. Akbar had a son, Jahangir, who inherited his father’s influence – another classic Guru in Leo trait. He wrote, “Kingship is a light emanating from God and a ray from the sun, the illuminator of the universe…” His own court circle was encouraged to honour the sun and moon. This is about as close as India gets to the court of Versailles and The Sun King of France, but the similarities are there.
If you have Guru in Leo then you may be a natural godparent, aunt, uncle, parent, teacher, mentor and so on. Perhaps you are a children’s author. Maybe you are ‘Queen’ to a young princess type. You may be a born leader, as Akbar was. Maybe some of your past life memories will take you back to the days of the great court.
Guru in Taurus Cycles in Indian History
Taurus is about trade, business and also food, so the earliest Guru in Taurus cycles coincided with spice markets on the Ganges and the big Roman cargo boats that made their way on the Red Sea, looking for pepper. Pepper was a prized commodity and was stored in huge barns on the Tiber. Pliny the Younger wrote “By the lowest reckoning, the India trade takes from our empire 100 million sesterces a year – at the lowest reckoning. That’s what our luxuries and our women cost us.” Pliny is talking about Guru in Taurus cycles there, where India’s growth depended on Roman trade. This may be another way that Roman ideas about the stars and planets found their way into Indian culture. Today we might associate a Guru in Taurus cycle with a boom in Indian restaurants on London high streets, for example. If you have Guru in Taurus then you are born ‘knowing’ about not only food, perhaps, but also how to trade, how to strike a deal, how to shop, how to bargain and so on. You may do well on Wall Street – but remember this is Indian astrology – so you filter it through Delhi or Mumbai, and their business and banking structures. Maybe you can remember as far back as Madurai, when Roman coins made the economy go around. In 21 B.C. in the age of Augustus (a huge fan of astrology) business between both places boomed. From the point of view of Indian astrology, you may well have just those kinds of past life memories.
How Astrology Developed in India, Britain, America and Australia
For this we really have to go back the old Silk Road of trade that ran from Rome (the home of astrology) across the Orient. Sanskrit, the language of the ancient Hindu texts and laws, known to the Brahmins, has striking resemblances to Latin. And Latin is the language of astrology. That is where phrases like ‘immum coeli’ come from (for the I.C.) of your horoscope. It is certainly where Jupiter himself comes from.
The Romans took Greek gods and goddesses, gave them different (Latin) names, and developed and adapted the symbols so that by the time they were imported to Britain after the 55 B.C. invasion – they found their way into what would end up as 17th century astrology, during its boom period.
From there, astrology evolved further and was shipped to the United States, Australia and beyond. The languages (Sanskrit and Latin) have a common root, which must have taken hold (rather like a lotus) on the old trade passages. Navigating by the stars was the way through, and it is likely that astrology grew on those routes – from those roots.
This might explain why Jupiter means much the same thing in India as it does in the West. The ‘language is a virus’ theory certainly lends itself to the fact that ‘guru’ has become a popular term in the West ever since the Sixties. The Romans would have understood that too. They called Jupiter ‘Optimus Maximus’ or the greatest and best. Someone to learn from. In your chart, this is where you inherit knowledge from previous lives, but also how can you can pass it on.
Hold Out Your Hands to Receive Good Karma
Holding out your hands to receive good karma, is a powerful image for Guru. The actual sign your Guru occupies will manifest as a blend of Indian-Western. So, for example, if you have Guru in Gemini, then from the Indian point of view you may be a gifted writer – like Arundhati Roy – but also, perhaps, you may have a flair for languages. Perhaps you can speak both English and your native tongue fluently. Guru in Gemini might also mean you are drawn to mantras, the patterns of sounds that take years to learn and days to recite, known to the Brahmins. What unites both sides of the world here, if you have Guru (for example) in Gemini is the internet. So, if you were born with Jupiter in Gemini using the Indian system, then you may be able to recite the ‘birdsong’ patterns of Indian mantras but also be very successful on social media. Once you get to know and appreciate your Guru sign, a whole new world of (astrological) possibility is open to you!
