They had an understanding of occult knowledge and human awakening that culturally we do not possess en masse today. Astrology is an example of this.

   
Through Astrology we see which of our energies are stronger and weaker, as shown by the Planets. The chart below shows the highest lesson and the lowest expression of each of the 7 main Planets in Vedic Astrology as well as the North and South Nodes.

Skanda as the second son of Shiva and Parvati, rules Mars as the representative of divine will. He is the general of the Army of the devas, who with childlike innocence fights to free the soul from the shackles of ignorance.

Venus – (Shukra) Rules TAURUS (feminine) and LIBRA (masculine) - A Rajasic Planet - Lakshmi is the ruler of Venus as she is the Goddess of love, art, beauty and abundance. Venus teaches that life is joyous and pleasurable and that bliss and happiness is our true nature.

Saturn establishes the limits that we must respect such as time and death. I once heard it said that Jupiter is wisdom, but Saturn is the truth. I like this explanation.

That is why we make the same mistakes over and over again. An Astrologer can identify the samsaras that drag us deeper into Tamas (darkness) and recommend those that will keep us focused on Sattwa. (knowledge)

Venus gives exactly what we need to love fully all the time, but we are not able to express her full energy until we purify the fears and desires associated with our smaller self, the ego. Thus Yoga and other disciplines give techniques on how to purify.

When we are angry, our mind is closed and the darkness of anger overtakes us. Mars is the capacity and desire of energy to transform itself. When his energy is directed toward higher purposes, he has the energy to liberate of our soul, when directed toward lower purposes he can becomes the very energy we are struggling against. 

When weak or compromised Venus makes us over eat, or eat the wrong things, have too strong of a sexual desire nature which disrupts our life, causing relationships based on physical pleasure, not general compatibility. 

Saturn causes the fear that can make us feel  disconnected from our own feelings or wanting to manipulate and control others. But the higher Saturn is a Monk in meditation, focused and steady.
