Dec 19, 2019: 13:21 IST: Scientists from Indian Institute of Technology BHU, Varanasi and Indian Institute of Astrophysics in Bengaluru have discovered never-before-seen magnetic explosions on the surface of the sun."This was the first observation of an external driver of magnetic reconnection," said Abhishek Srivastava, solar scientist at the Indian Institute of Technology (BHU). "This could be very useful for understanding other systems. For example, Earth's and planetary magnetospheres, other magnetised plasma sources, including experiments at laboratory scales where plasma is highly diffusive and very hard to control. "Our thought is that forced reconnection is everywhere," Srivastava said."But we have to continue to observe it, to quantify it, if we want to prove that."Previous discoveries have revealed the explosion through magnetic field lines -- often referred to as magnetic reconnection -- however, no one has seen this get triggered by an eruption. This makes this discovery extraordinary.

Dec. 24, 2019: 14 hours ago: Scientists discovered that the waves move more slowly than expected as they passed through the base of the outer core, and faster than expected when moving through the eastern hemisphere of the top inner core. These observations led them to hypothesize that crystallization was possible and that about 15 per cent of the lower-most inner core could be made of iron-based crystals that eventually fall down the liquid outer core and settle on top of the solid inner core. Scientists thus concluded that the Earth’s inner core is snow-capped. They note, in the study published online, that the snow is made of tiny particles of iron that fall from the molten iron core and pile on top of the inner core, forming piles up to 32 km thick that encapsulate the inner core. Basically, you have crystals within the outer core snowing down onto the inner core over a distance of several hundred km!
Dec. 24, 2019: 01:37 IST: Krishna water augments storage of lakes. The Poondi reservoir will continue to receive about 550 cusecs of Krishna water from Andhra Pradesh till the month-end. Like in previous years, Krishna water has helped increase the storage in the four reservoirs that serve the city. Though the lakes received some inflows from rains in early December, rainfall during this northeast monsoon has not helped fill them. On Monday, the combined storage of the reservoirs stood at 5,535 million cubic feet against their capacity of 11,257 mcft. Chennai’s water needs could be met till the next southwest monsoon.

Date and Time: Wed, December 25, 2019: 6:00 PM – 10:00 PM IST. About The Event 6 Planet Transits In Sagittarius - Very Rare, Mystical & Magical Occurrence In Last 300 Years. Navagraha & Nakshatra Shanthi Homam. Make All Planets Favourable to Awaken the Luck Aspect For New Year 2020!. Scheduled Live on Dec 25, 2019 @ 6 PM IST. Rare 6 Planets Transit Conjunctions in Sagittarius is the most favorable timing for us to remove our 7 Birth sins for ourselves and our next 7 Family blood Generation. 25th & 26th Dec 2019 is the magical days in the last 3 Centuries and its believed that performing Navagraha and Nakshatra Devata Rituals will not only remove all associated sins and doshas but it will also bring Huge Wealth, Longevity and Prosperity to your entire Family Generations until the Next event happens after 300 years if you miss this. Annular solar eclipse 26 December 2019 occurs with Sun, Jupiter, Mercury and Moon in Moola Nakshatra, Ketu in Poorvashada Nakshatra, Saturn in Uttarashada Nakshatra, Mars in Visakha Nakshatra (Scorpio), Venus is Sravana Nakshatra and Rahu in Arudra Nakshatra opposing the Six Planets Sagittarius conjunction. This eclipse will be visible in Asia, East Africa, Asia-Pacific Islands and North-West Australia. 6 Planets conjunction in Sagittarius – December 2019. People born in Dhanus Rasi will be the most effected, followed by Gemini (Mithuna). Mercury-Ketu in Sagittarius gives lack of proper judgement in crisis, useless loose talk, blabbering and frustration. Sun-Ketu make physically weak, carry guilt feeling from past throughout their lives, become introverts, develop self pity and also expect others to show pity by listening to their boring stories. Jupiter-Ketu should be the best conjunction in this sign, but due to Jupiter Combust, this leads to unpopularity in social life and religious activities. Saturn-Ketu and other conjunctions are also not helping much. This eclipse is good for those born in moon signs of Aquarius, Pisces, Cancer, Libra and bad for those born in moon signs of Taurus, Gemini, Leo, Virgo, Scorpio, Sagittarius and Capricorn. There is not much effect on Aries. People born with Moon in Aswini, Magha or Moola constellations or with Sagittarius Ascendant or Moon Sign, or undergoing Vimsottari dasa or major antardasa of Ketu will experience changes with huge impact. These changes will be related to health, finance, profession and relations within family. Due to 6 planets being conjunct people born in Dhanus Rasi (Sagittarius) will have to face issues like ill-health of spouse, cheating of partners, lack of judgement, rude behaviour of children. Murphy’s Law applies perfectly for them as whatever BAD they imagine will definitely happen and whatever GOOD they imagine, may not happen. Mistakes made in past will be used against you. Solar Eclipse 26 December 2019 Astrology Effects on 12 Zodiac Signs. Six planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Jupiter, Ketu, Saturn) will be conjunct in same sign Sagittarius (Dhanu Rasi) during 26-28 December 2019. These planets form Solar Eclipse 26 December 2019 on a New Moon day. Sun, Moon, Mercury, Jupiter transit Moola Nakshatra and this this cluster of 4 planets which are close to Ketu + Saturn, aspected by Rahu. Unseasonal floods, cyclones, heavy rains can cause heavy damage in coastal parts of India, Malaysia, Indonesia, Sri Lanka. Solar Eclipses usually bring big political changes and trouble to corrupt politicians within few months after eclipse. Few states and countries going for elections when Major planets are conjunct or changing sign can witness change of governments. Ruling parties can lose power. Also, this Solar Eclipse 26 December 2019 will test Moola Nakshatra born natives physically and mentally. People living in countries where eclipse can be seen and if born in Dhanus or Mithuna rasi, will face health issues, fatigue, depression during December 2019 – January 2020. This Solar Eclipse 26 December 2019 will occur at the Moon’s descending node of the orbit with a magnitude of 0.97010. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon’s apparent diameter is smaller than the Sun’s, blocking most of the Sun’s light and causing the Sun to look like an annulus (ring). An annular eclipse appears as a partial eclipse over a region of the Earth thousands of km wide.

Dec. 26, 2019: 08:48:28: NEW MOON: The New Moon on Thursday, December 26, 2019, at 4° Capricorn is an annular Solar Eclipse. This Solar Eclipse is very lucky because the Sun and Moon align with Jupiter, the planet of growth, abundance and expansion. A good aspect to Uranus adds to possibilities and excitement. The Moon’s eclipse of the Sun in Capricorn represents the emotional side of human nature as being more powerful than the logical side, even though both may be creative in their own ways. The Moon is said to reflect deep needs, often hidden from the surface but more evident during the eclipse. The part of human nature that keeps these needs firmly under wraps may have less sway now. With the Sun and Moon conjunct Jupiter brings happiness, optimism, generosity and good luck, with opportunities for professional growth. It allows more enthusiasm to do all you can and experience life to the fullest. This Expansion can apply to all areas of life, from relationships to wealth. Solar eclipse trine Uranus brings pleasant surprises and interesting encounters. You may feel a higher level of self-awareness that comes through increased intuition and flashes of insight. These insights together with increased self-confidence and a sense of adventure allow you to express the more flamboyant, or unique side of your personality. With Jupiter trine Uranus you may experience lucky breaks and exciting encounters. You should feel more optimistic and adventurous, and willing to take risks without being rebellious. If you are a shy or conservative person, this aspect helps you loosen up and go with your instincts. Perhaps your emotions will seem more intense than usual, but maybe it’s rather that you have simply increased our awareness of your emotions in general. The Sun and Moon’s more difficult phases can describe the relationship between body and brain during times of stress. Suddenly feeling more sleepy or noticing more bodily pains could be typical manifestations. With Capricorn involved, you may need to take more time to gain greater insight. You might spot a development that has its roots in the past, and now you can fathom it in greater depth and clarity through hindsight. For some of us, the task will require making a link much further back, perhaps even to a stage of childhood or involvement with our parents, when certain events laid a foundation for the type of reaction we are experiencing now. Because this New Moon is a partial solar eclipse, its effects last for six months instead of the normal four weeks. The solar eclipse December 2019 astrology is fortunate because of Jupiter, the most fortunate of planets is in a close conjunction with the Sun and Moon. The only other planetary aspect involved is a lucky trine to Uranus that brings positive change and excitement.

Earliest Sanskrit inscription in South India found in A.P. Saptamatrikas are a group of seven female deities worshipped in Hinduism as personifying the energy of their respective consorts. The inscription is in Sanskrit and in Brahmi characters and was issued by Satavahana king Vijaya in 207 A.D. The inscription was first copied and studied and it transpired that it records the construction of a prasada (temple), a mandapa and consecration of images on the southern side of the temple by a person named Kartika for the merit of the king at the temple of Bhagavathi (Goddess) Saktimatruka (Saptamatrika) at Tambrape; Tambrape being the ancient name of Chebrolu. The verification of all the available records proved that the Chebrolu inscription of Satavahana king Vijaya issued in his 5th regnal year – 207 A.D. — is also the earliest datable Sanskrit inscription from South India. The place also yielded another inscription which is in Prakrit language and of Brahmi characters and belongs to the 1st century A.D.

From the same archaeological site another inscription, which was written in Prakrit language, was found. It should be mentioned that this inscription belongs to the 1st century AD and is the earliest evidence epigraphic reference to monastery.
