Samadhi is a Hindu and Buddhist term that means "to make firm" or "establish" when translated to English. A deeper meaning of the word means the last state of meditation you achieve in meditation or yoga where you are out of your physical consciousness mind and attain equal mind and soul balance. This is a good astrological description of the asteroid. Does anyone else have any insight as to what this could mean when conjunct the natal sun?

In the discovery chart, Samadhi is at 14'50"r degrees Leo and opposite the Sun:

"15 Degrees of Leo is one of the worst degrees in the zodiac, either natally or in prediction. Prominent in the charts of serial killers, felons serving life sentences, in the charts of those who have fated hard luck, etc. Helen Keller, both blind and deaf from a very early age had her chart co-ruler Mars at 15 degrees of Leo, along with no air signs. [Air signs are communication]. Stevie Wonder [blind] Pluto at 15 degrees of Leo, Ludwig van Beethoven, deaf, Saturn at 15 degrees of Leo."

This is a really interesting asteroid, thanks for flagging.

Have done some research and there is a definite theme of uniting physical with spirit - it's fascinating.

Perfect union of the individualized soul with infinite spirit. (1) A state of oneness; complete absorption. (2)

I wonder if this could be a useful asteroid in looking at soul connections and even twin flame relationships.

If this was the case, having it conjunct the sun, moon or asc natally could be a marker for achieving ascension in this lifetime potentially.

Potential uses in interpersonal stuff are very interesting as well. I have done some initial playing and I have it tightly conjunct someone's Agapenor, and in the composite with the same person, Samadhi is conjunct the Ascendant.

Definitely one to maybe think about in terms of TF and soulmate relationships, if only to plug it in to known unions and see where it lands to learn more about it.

The transcendence theme is really interesting and one I'll look at more - it feels similar to pluto but more spiritually focussed.

Huh I have it in scorpio at 18d in the first house and tr jupiter was conjuncting it not that long ago, at some point this year anyways.I have known about the benefits of mediation for a while now but this year I got into it more in depth, understanding more deeply its effects on neural plasticity, its ability to rewire your brain and change its structure.

I did experience Samadhi while meditating last year, I felt like pure vibration and nothing more, it only happened once, I felt like I was vibrating and could hear the sound of this vibration, I felt like I was one with everything and not in my head/mind at all. Come to think of it when this happened transit Pluto in Cap was conjunct my Harmonia (40, spanish for Harmony) and sextile exact my Samadhi in scorpio and trine exact my mercury.

Mine is at 2 degrees of Taurus. The fact that it was discovered at 15 Leo doesn't really affect me since mine isn't there and in fact I have nothing in Leo except Chiron.

And your definition has no mention of the meaning of the word samadhi which is reaching nirvana. I would look at fixed stars like Algol when determining if something bad will happen to me rather than asteroids, especially when the asteroid you're talking about has nothing to do with your description.

I've never been able to meditate because I can't sit still for long (blame my buildup of planets in Aries lol), but I wonder if possibly in a dream I might have a spiritual awakening. I remember dreams quite often.

Wow that is an amazing example of the asteroid in use! Even though I have it conjunct my Sun I have never been able to meditate because sitting still for too long is difficult for an ADHD person with a ton of planets in energetic Aries like me lol. I have always been spiritual in a way though, not religious or a churchgoing person, but I've always believed in a higher being and in life after death.

You might want to reconsider that because the transit North Node just invoked the Samadhi discovery location when you created this thread.

It sounds like you made your mind up already so no need to try to show you.

Maybe it means you will strive for it, maybe.

According to the birthdate available which I would say have high chances of validity considering the fact that astrology was supposedly held in high regards at that particular period of time, Gautam Buddha too had 5 planets in Aries lol(and in 10th house of all houses), and a Scorpio Moon to boot. Personally I consider Scorpio Moon very suitable for meditation since it supposedly loves to get right to the depth of things(in this case the depth of the inner world).

I have Venus in Taurus conjunct Samadhi in Taurus in my chart. It has an orb within 2 degrees, but I'm not sure what this means. I'm in contact with my twin flame so maybe it's a reference to twin flame union? I'm interested in hearing further thoughts.

Venus is the ruler of my 6th, 7th, and 11th houses (My 3rd-9th house axis is intercepted). Twin flames don't always have a romantic connection, but if Samadhi's conjunction to my Venus in Taurus has anything to do with twin flames, it would accurately reflect how my twin and I interact. We have a non-physical romantic relationship.

I'm not familiar with Samadhi as an experience so I don't know how accurate my interpretation could be.

This is a really cool explanation!

Samadhi is conjunct the Sun in my chart (which is part of a big ol' Scorpio stellium), and I really relate to that line you said. It's not all the time, but when I really feel like I'm in tune with myself, it's like a switch I can't turn off. I do always have a sense of being at one with everything too, which is usually in the head/mind by default, but especially when my Sun is lit up in transit or synastry, there's no stepping out of it.

It is loosely inconjunct my moon, though, so I can lose track of it if I'm really in my feels, but it always comes back in the end. I've been curious about this asteroid too, since it does seem to have a lot to do with meditation; I don't meditate often consciously, but sometimes it feels like I do on the daily without meaning to. I'm always in some state of self reflection unless I'm interacting (ie, being present) with another human.

Maybe that's why I prefer to be on my own so often hahah!

*Oh, I should probably note, this isn't always a positive thing. Sometimes it can mean constantly reading into the universal patterns and meanings for ... everything. I usually have to catch myself trying to divine/understand why something is when really I should be letting it just exist on it's own. (Even though, dang, the frustration lmao)

just 2 minutes cnj Shulnazaria 4187 (house of prayer) , 0° with Panthera 4198 (below I'll add my story re the panther), 0° with Australia 8088, Hawaii 48575, Kalman 4995 (latin 'dove') and the fixed star Alkarab (the rope bucket) within the Pegasus constellation. Note as a girl I ♡ed the Pegasus more so than the unicorn. Just my fondness of wings.
