Exploring the Cosmic Influence of Planets on Sexuality: 
Insights from Yoga, Ayurveda, and Hindu Scriptures


How Do Yogis Control Sexual Desire?: Yogis often lead a life of solitude, focusing on spiritual growth and inner peace. Through practices like meditation, chanting, and deep contemplation, they learn to harness and redirect their sexual energy towards higher spiritual pursuits. It’s important to understand that controlling sexual desires in this context doesn’t mean suppressing them. Suppression can lead to negative psychological effects. Instead, yogis transform this energy, channeling it into spiritual awakening and mindfulness, thus achieving a balanced state of mind and body.

Which Planet Influences Sexuality?: In astrology, the planet Venus is considered the goddess of love, beauty, and sensuality. Venus plays a pivotal role in defining an individual’s sexual nature, preferences, and romantic inclinations. Astrologers examine Venus’s position in the birth chart to gain insights into a person’s sexual identity and relationships. Venus represents our capacity to love and be loved, guiding us in matters of the heart and intimate connections.

How Often Should One Engage in Sex According to Ayurveda?: Ayurveda, the ancient science of life, provides specific guidelines on the frequency of sexual activity. According to Vagbhata, an esteemed Ayurvedic scholar, the frequency of sexual activity should vary according to the seasons and the individual’s physical condition. During winter, after strengthening the body with aphrodisiacs, one can engage in sex as often as desired. In spring and autumn, it’s advised to do so every three days, while in the hot summer and rainy seasons, once every two weeks is recommended. This approach helps maintain balance and harmony within the body, ensuring overall well-being.

How to Enhance ‘Shukra’ in the Body?: ‘Shukra,’ in Ayurveda, refers to the reproductive fluid, vital for vitality and reproductive health. To enhance Shukra, one should focus on consuming foods that are nourishing, heavy, moist, sweet, cooling, and rich in fats. Foods like milk, sweet fruits, ghee, and butter are especially beneficial. These foods help to increase vitality, improve reproductive health, and promote overall physical strength.

What Does the Bhagavad Gita Say About Sex?: The Bhagavad Gita, a sacred text of Hinduism, acknowledges the significance of sex and even its divine nature when practised according to dharma (righteousness). In verse 07.10, it is stated that sex, when aligned with the principles of dharma, is an experience of Krishna Himself. Through the act of procreation, we become co-creators with the divine, bringing new life into this world and assisting a soul in obtaining a physical body.

What is the Hindu Perspective on Sex?In the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna explains that He is present everywhere, but within the human body, He manifests as desire (kama), particularly sexual desire. For those in the grihastha (householder) stage of life, fulfilling sexual desires and experiencing sensual pleasure are considered part of their dharma. This view emphasizes the importance of sex within the boundaries of righteousness and moral principles.

Is Meditation More Blissful Than Sex?: Meditation offers an unparalleled sense of inner peace, allowing one to disconnect from the complexities and distractions of the external world. Through meditation, one attains a pure and empowered state of mind, free from worldly attachments. The bliss experienced in this state is often described as transcending the physical pleasures of sex. Meditation leads to a deeper connection with the self, resulting in a profound and lasting sense of fulfilment.

Which Dosha Influences Sexuality?: In Ayurveda, Vata dosha is considered the driving force behind the mind’s functions, including thoughts, emotions, and desires. Vata governs the nervous system, making it a key player in sexual arousal, activity, and satisfaction. Balancing Vata is crucial for maintaining healthy sexual function and overall mental well-being.

Which Month is Ideal for Conceiving?: Ovulation, the phase when a woman is most fertile, typically occurs about 14 days before the start of her menstrual period. If a woman’s menstrual cycle is 28 days long, she is likely to ovulate around the 14th day, making days 12, 13, and 14 her most fertile days. For those with a 35-day cycle, ovulation usually happens around the 21st day, with the most fertile days being the 19th, 20th, and 21st. Understanding this cycle is essential for those trying to conceive or manage their fertility.
