Should we take the moon in Scorpio seriously?

According to the online economy report, quoted by IRNA, the ancient people, according to the arrangement of a set of stars that they used to find from the tower; They named the twelve constellations, which are: Aries: (the ram), Taurus: (the bull), Gemini: (the two-headed), Cancer: (the crab), Leo: (the lion), Virgo: (the cluster) ), Libra: (Libra), Scorpio: (Scorpio), Sagittarius: (Sagittarius), Capricorn: (Goat), Aquarius: (Aquatic), Pisces: (Fish).

The difference between a constellation and a tower

A “constellation” refers to a group of stars that evoke a particular shape in the viewer’s mind, while a “sign” refers to any of the twelve divisions of the zodiac and, as the stars move over time, between constellations and The designated towers are spaced out. Astrologers consider the criterion of inference to be the sign itself, not its forms.

Do the states of the moon, stars and planets have an effect on the earth?

In ancient times, the moon was the sign of goodness and the stars of the Scorpion constellation were the sign of evil due to their accidental and apparent similarity with Scorpio, and every time the moon was in line with this constellation, people were afraid that the scorpion would bite the moon, and as a result, a problem would occur. come

Some believe that just as the moon has an effect on the tides of the sea, in certain circumstances, its distance from the earth may also have an effect on human conditions. does not have.

A group also believes that the stars and planets have no influence on our destiny, but at the same time, they all have energy that can be used.

There is no doubt that the way some of the stars in the sky – especially the planets of the solar system – are placed in their orbits, compared to each other, may have natural or supernatural effects on the planet; For example, sea tides are caused by the influence of the moon’s gravity, and when the moon and the sun are on the same side (such as at the beginning and end of the month), this attraction is stronger and may even affect the earth’s crust and cause fractures. And there will be earthquakes, and conversely, significant rainfall may occur due to the influence of the celestial spheres on the earth and the like.

We cannot deny the natural and supernatural influence of astronomical conditions in the lives and states of human beings without a valid reason; Because all the parts of the world are connected and have an effect on each other.

Of course, it is difficult to prove the natural and supernatural influence of the celestial conditions in the lives of humans in every case without exception, and it is not possible to prove anything without valid and imaginative reasons; Now, if something in this context is proven through the infallibles (pbuh), the amount that has been proven is acceptable and acceptable. Such as avoiding the issue of marriage when the moon is in Scorpio.

In other words, our days and every moment of our moments is the influence of the celestial situation. Just like when the sun rises, there is an effect on the earth, the next hour the effect changes and these effects are real and not imaginations. Every moment we reach the sunset, the effects of the sun on the earth and its creatures change.

In the cases of eclipse and eclipse, marks are created on the ground and remain on the ground for a long time. These are not based on superstitions and even the contemporary scientists of astronomy also state these.

Therefore, the astronomical situation cannot be ignored, and in general, it can be said that energies reach the earth from the planets and stars in the sky, and we are affected by these energies.

Moon in Scorpio in jurisprudence

According to jurists such as Shahid Sani and Sahib Javaher, the meaning of Moon in Scorpio is Scorpio, not the face and houses associated with it. As Hassanzadeh Amoli, a philosopher, says: Jurists differ on the meaning of the moon in Scorpio, which was narrated by Imam Sadiq (a.s.). According to Shahid Sani in his description of Lamea and Fadel Handi in Kashf al-Latham, the meaning of the moon in Scorpio is its idiomatic and specialized meaning according to astrologers, that the moon should be precisely placed in Scorpio, but from the point of view of Sahib Jawahar, it is its customary meaning. ; That is, the placement of the moon in front of the constellation Scorpio in such a way that people can see it with a normal eye. (Hassanzadeh Amoli, lessons on knowing time and Qiblah, pp. 161-163)

On the other hand, Seyyed Mohammad Kazem Tabatabaei Yazdi in his book Urwa-ul-Waqhi considers the mentioned narration to include both meanings; It means both its specialized, precise and scientific meaning, and what can be seen with the eye. Hassanzadeh Amoli considered Seyyed Mohammad Kazem Yazdi’s opinion to be cautious (Hassanzadeh Amoli, Darus Marafah Al-Wamt wa Qiblah, pp. 161-163) and in the book One Thousand and One Words, he said that the meaning of the moon in the scorpion in jurisprudential books is the conventional meaning among astronomers and scholars. and only the owner of Arwa has interpreted it in an absolute (specialized and customary) way. (Hassanzadeh Amoli, Thousand and One Words, Vol. 6, p. 22)

Jurisprudence of the moon in Scorpio

In jurisprudence books, it is considered makruh (not haram) to do certain things when the moon is in Scorpio; Marriage contract, trying to conceive a child (fertilization), and the other is travel.

Great jurists such as: Shahid I, Shahid Second, Sahib Javaher, Seyyed Yazdi have considered doing the above things during the time of the moon in Scorpio as abominable. (Al-Lamaa Al-Damashqiyyah, p. 173; Masalak al-Afham, vol. 7, p. 21; Al-Arwa al-Waqhi (Lassid Elizdi), vol. 2, p. 799)

The reason for the abhorrence of these actions is also the narrations that have been entered in this regard. These hadiths are available in authentic hadith books such as Kafi, Man Laihzara al-Faqih, Bihar al-Anwar, Wafi and Wasal al-Shia. Like a narration from Imam Sadiq (AS) that when the moon is in Scorpio, whoever travels or gets married will not see good. (Kafi, vol. 8, p. 275; Man Laihdara al-Faqih, vol. 2, p. 267)

Do you mean Scorpio or Scorpio constellation?

What has been said about the Ahl al-Bayt (a.s.) staying away from certain matters such as marriage, taking steps to conceive sperm and traveling, when the moon is in Scorpio, does it mean that the moon (moon) is in Scorpio itself or its opposite?

Most jurists have said that what is meant by the moon in Scorpio is Scorpio, not its face and house. (Masalik al-Afham, vol. 7, p. 21; Al-Arwa al-Waghti (Lalsaid Elizdi), vol. 2, p. 799)

Let’s explain this jurisprudential question and answer in simpler terms, and that the moon in each of these twelve forms (Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces) is a It is placed on the twelfth of the length of the lunar month. (about 2 days and 11 hours)

For example, in each lunar month, the Moon (Moon) will be in the sign and constellation of Scorpio for about two and a half days.

There is a gap between “tower” and “constellation”. Therefore, this important question arises: what is meant by the aversion to travel and marriage when the moon is in the constellation of Scorpio or when the moon is in the constellation of Scorpio?

Most of the jurists have said that it means the sign of Scorpio, and some have said that it means the constellation of Scorpio, and it seems that the majority of jurists are right, but it is better if both are considered cautiously, as Professor Allameh Hassanzadeh Amoli also had his opinion on caution. It means that those works should not be done for about three days.

Pros and cons of the impact of the moon on the earth

Allameh Tabatabai believes that there is no reason to prove or deny the validity of a particular day or time, and although there are many hadiths in this regard, most of them are weak due to the fact that they were transmitted or transmitted or raised. are. (Al-Mizan, Vol. 19, pp. 71 and 72) In his opinion, the day or time itself cannot have the description of good or good, and traditions that imply such a thing are carried on taqiyyah or discarded. (Al-Mizan, vol. 19, p. 75)

Allameh Tabataba’i about the moon in Scorpio and the effect of the conditions of the stars on earthly events is also that such a thing cannot be proven or denied from an intellectual point of view; Of course, he did not deny the principle of connection between earthly events and the situation of the stars in the sky, and he did not consider it to be against religious requirements. (Al-Mizan, vol. 19, p. 75) According to him, the narration of Imam Sadiq (a.s.) and others like it may be referred to taqiyyah, and it may mean that the conditions of the stars are the basis (not the cause) of certain events on earth. (Al-Mizan, vol. 19, p. 76)

According to Ayatollah Javadi Amoli, the intrinsic melancholy of a particular day or time is not correct, but the prohibition of marriage or traveling during the moon in Scorpio is correct; Because world events can be effective in human life. (Tafsir Tasnim, Vol. 15, pp. 518 and 519)

The verdict of jurists about the moon in Scorpio

Most of the jurists are of the opinion that it is abhorrent to perform a marriage contract, travel and conjugation, and it is better to be careful about it for about 3 days and to do it after the time of the moon in Scorpio. Although the issue of the moon in Scorpio is a matter that a fatwa has been given according to it, it should be kept in mind that the fatwa is specific to the cases of travel and marriage that are mentioned in the hadiths, and in addition, the ruling on which the fatwa has been given is abhorrence. No respect.

Supreme Leader: During the days of the moon in Scorpio, it is frowned upon to perform the marriage contract, but there is no problem in holding the ceremony. Also, in response to the question, should we pay attention to the days of the moon in Scorpio and avoid doing things that are forbidden in this case? They said: There is no problem.

Grand Ayatollah Sistani: Marriage during the days of the moon in Scorpio is frowned upon.

Grand Ayatollah Hossein Nourihamdani: According to authentic traditions, one should avoid doing basic things, especially marriage and fertilization, when the moon is in Scorpio.

Result

Although it is recommended in the traditions that certain things should not be done during the time of the moon in Scorpio; However, it is also recommended in some narrations not to pay too much attention to the days of nass, movements and constellations.

Such narrations are not in the position of expressing the cause of the marriage, but rather in the position of expressing the necessity of possibility and possibility, therefore, the jurists have condemned traveling and performing the marriage ceremony when the Moon (Moon) is in Scorpio. (Tahreer al-Wasila, vol. 2, p. 238)

Therefore, if there is no need to do these things on those days, it is better to be careful and not do them, but if there is a need, there is no obstacle to doing them, and according to traditions, trusting in God, praying and giving alms can ward off negative effects and possible harm.
