Vedic
Astrology has been practiced for many
thousands of years. The earliest writings
can be found in the Vedas - the ancient spiritual
texts of the Hindus and the oldest books in
existence, written 5,000 - 8,000 years ago.
Its Indian name is Jyotish, which means "science
of light" because it is the science of observing
the celestial bodies that reflect their energy
and light upon the Earth, therefore influencing
the course of human events.
How Astrology Works and Why it is Valuable
Astrology is the study of
the effects of the motions of the planets on
the tides of civilizations, world events, and
individual lives.
It has been in existence
for many thousands of years and has helped to
shape and influence some of the greatest civilizations
in recorded history: Those of the Indians,
Chinese, Egyptians, Romans, Babylonians, Greeks
and Mayans, to name a few.
Some of the greatest intellectual
thinkers in the world have believed in and utilized
astrology. "Astrology" comes from the
Greek work Astron which means "star"
and legein, which means "speak."
Dante declared astrology "the highest, noblest,
and without defect." Kepler, Bacon, Pythagoras,
and Democrates were all well educated and versed
in astrology. The ancient Hebrews called
the astrologer asphe which means "the
mouthpiece of the star." It is written
that Newton was drawn to mathematics and astronomy
by the observation and contemplation of an astrological
figure in the heavens. It is only in modern
times that astrology has fallen into disrepute
or seen as merely fortune-telling or silly entertainment.
A chart or horoscope for
a person or event is the map of the positions
of the planets at the birth of that individual
or situation. This is based on the theory
that each moment has within it the seeds of
its fruit, i.e., by looking at the forces of
nature in effect at the outset of something
tells you all about the outcomes that will follow
as the wheels of time turn. It is said
that one's horoscope is God's wish for that
person. The astrologer is thus deemed,
"The mouth of God" as he/she is the interpreter
of the map that God has designed.
Get your astrological chart
analyzed to understand the influences affecting
your life - past, present, and future.
By seeing into these periods, you can make peace
with your past and understand not only what
actions to take to make the most of your present,
but how to plan for the future. You can
determine whether or not to move, if you are
in the right career, when you'll meet Mr. or
Miss Right, when you should try to conceive,
what health problems you may have, how to avoid
them, and on and on. Every facet of a
person's life can be illuminated with the aid
of astrology.
