There is a division of time in the five phases these are called “Panch Pakshi” The word panch means five and Pakshi means birds. The time that is set to do an important task is determined by the five birds.
The birds that are named in the Panch Pakshi are Vulture, Peacock, Owl, Rooster, and Crow. Each of these bird symbols appears twice in 24 hours. Once by day and once by night and the intervals are two hours and 24 minutes long.
The Pakshi
The Pakshi cover five major tasks: eating, sleeping, walking, ruling, and dying. The individual Panch Pakshi is determined based on a combination of your birthplace, the ascendant, and the first star. Each of these will carry great weight in determining the appropriate Panch Pakshi.
For the Tamil people, this will feel appropriate and familiar. For Westerners, the concept of set times for different activities seems very strange. Each culture will adapt its astrological system to fit its concepts of time and how it prefers to do things.
Also very often a great deal of tradition becomes tied up with the astrological system. In the more ancient cultures, it is not easy to toss aside a traditional point of view as most are not based on constant change as is Western society.
We still see the need to look beyond ourselves for guidance. And astrology has certainly provided many of us with the required guide. When we look at Tamil astrology we also see that there are a couple of other major connections that must be made. There must be a degree of compatibility between the ruling planet and the Nakshatra. When getting your free Tamil astrology reading this is an aspect that must consider.
