☀️ Say your good morning to the Deva! ☀️

Today, January 14, to the About 10:16 a.m., the Sun entered the Sidereal Capricorn.
This year Makara Saṅkrānti coincides with Śat-tila Ekādaśī, a particularly favorable combination for the spiritual practices, for the therapeutic fasting and for deep realignment work, not only symbolic but also very concrete.

(I am also preparing a meeting to tell you about 2026... but I'll tell you about that later... in the meantime, get ready, because it will be accessible only to those who have the Planet of Destiny Report, the Planetary DNA o is enrolled in the’Academy, because I want to offer this information has those who are already on a path of personal growth).

This transit, as long-awaited as it is delicate, is called the Makara Saṅkrānti. However, as is often the case with really powerful passages, its benefits are not immediate. We can say that Makara Saṅkrānti's full potential only manifests itself by January 15. Understanding why is not a minor technical detail, but an integral part of the spiritual significance of this moment.

When the Sun exits one Sign and enters another, crosses a border area called Rāśi Sandhi. It is an astrological and symbolic threshold, a transitional phase that brings with it Instability, disorientation and heightened sensitivity. This condition concerns the last half degree of the Sign that the Sun is leaving and the first half degree of the Sign it is entering.

This year this translated into a period between the evening of January 13 and the entire day of January 14. First the Sun passed through the last unstable portion of Sagittarius, then, from 10:16 a.m. onward, it began to move into the gentler degrees of Capricorn. These are subtle hours when it is easy to feel restless, uncentered, as if something is changing direction without yet being fully defined. If you sensed this, it is not random and it is not “yours”-it is the very language of the heavens speaking through the body and psyche.

Traditional texts explain this stage with a very simple and powerful image. The first degree of each Sign, properly called Saṅkrānti, is the time when it is said that the Sun is “naked”. The Signs of the Zodiac are compared to clothes that the Sun wears to manifest itself in its twelve forms, the twelve Āditya, the twelve solar rays. Each Sign is a different habit, a specific way in which light takes shape in the world.

When the Sun enters a new Sign, it sheds its previous garment and is still wearing the new one. At that moment it is not stable; it is not fully operational. For this reason, tradition advises. avoiding auspicious choices during this phase. The instability of the Saṅkrānti only dissolves. after the morning of Jan. 15, when the Sun is now firmly “clothed” in Capricorn. From then on, Makara Saṅkrānti can truly express its full beneficent power.

Then there is another key aspect that is often poorly understood outside the context of Indian tradition. Solar holidays are celebrated at dawn. In the Vedic calendar what matters is not only the exact time of the transit, but The position of the Sun at the time of sunrise. If an astronomical event occurs after sunrise, its celebration is moved to the next sunrise.

The Sun entered Capricorn on January 14 at 10:16 a.m., but at dawn that day it was still in Sagittarius. Therefore the true celebration of Makara Saṅkrānti takes place. January 15, when at sunrise the Sun is fully in Capricorn. January 14, on the other hand, remains consecrated to Ekādaśī, with devotional practices, songs and prayers. It is a preparation, a passage, not a contradiction.

Beyond these technicalities, which serve mainly to avoid trivializing the moment, the real question is: What is Makara Saṅkrānti, in its deepest meaning?

Makara Saṅkrānti marks a change of light. With this transit opens the six bright months of the year, those that in Vedic cosmology correspond to the day of the Deva. It is a half of the year that supports clarity, understanding, the emergence of consciousness and the ability to see more clearly what has been sown in the previous months.

And here comes the most significant announcement: It is said that in Makara Saṅkrānti the Deva wake up.

In Vedic Astrology, the universe is not an impersonal machine. Everything is person, everything is relationship. I Deva are the cosmic administrators of the laws of the universe, those who preside over the cycles of nature, the subtle balances and forces that keep the cosmos in order.

In other traditions they are called angels. In modern parlance, some would call them extraterrestrials. In the Vedic view they are multidimensional beings, belonging to highly evolved civilizations, cooperating with each other and co-creating with the Absolute the organization of the universe. They are not mythological figures in the reductive sense of the term, but intelligent principles operating on planes of reality other than our own.

Just as we have a rhythm of waking and sleeping, the Deva also follow a cycle. The difference is. their day lasts an entire earth year. For six months they are active, for six months they rest. During their “night,” the custodial function passes to the Pitṛ, the ancestors. Nothing is ever left uncovered: the universe is always manned.

Makara Saṅkrānti is the time when the Deva awaken and fully resume their beneficial activities for humanity. The six months starting here are considered the brightest part of the year, the part when it is easiest to resonate with the forces of light and order.

It is interesting to note that Makara, while corresponding to Capricorn, is not represented in Indo-Vedic iconography by a simple goat. Makara is a mythical sea creature, a kind of chimera, union of several symbolic animals: crocodile, fish, snake, sometimes lion. It is a very powerful symbol, related to the primordial waters, to the ability to emerge from the depths and give form and direction to an energy that until then was indistinct. Makara is neither weak nor rigid: it is the force that has passed through the darkness and is now structured.

Astrologically, the Sun during the year travels along two major paths, called the āyana, “ways.” When moving southward, from Cancer to Sagittarius, it travels along the Dakṣiṇāyana, considered the night of the Deva. Instead, as it enters Capricorn, it begins to move northward, traveling along the’Uttarāyaṇa, the day of the Deva. And that is exactly where we are now.

Texts from ancient India tell that on this very day we commemorate the descent of the Ganges to Earth. The heavenly Ganges is nothing but the Milky Way, the great luminous river flowing through the sky. In a sky free of light pollution we can still contemplate it as the ancients did. In Makara Saṅkrānti the blessings of this stellar river become more accessible, as if a higher order symbolically descends to Earth.

Now what?
Now the Devas are waking up. After their long rest, they will observe how we have treated the planet, how we have related to each other, how we have used the time we have been given. The answers will emerge in the months to come.

In the meantime, we can do something very simple and deeply meaningful: Saying our good morning to the Deva. With a prayer, a gesture of gratitude, a clear intention, an act of respect toward life.

The Sun has changed clothes.
Now it's up to us walk in the light that returns.
