The Zodiac Signs are twelve fixed groups of stars around the sky, beyond and outside our solar system's circumference. Our solar system's planets rotate within this Fixed Astronomical Zodiac.
Our earth moves around the sun and its own axis. But the earth's axis is not fixed and it has also a conic pendulous movement called Precession which completes one circle in about 26 000 years. In the beginning of astrology, when the zodiac signs were named, our planets' relations to the astronomical zodiac, seen from the earth, were different than nowadays and the sun entered into the Aries Sign on Spring-Equinox (around 20th or 21st March) which it does no longer. Because of the precession, the position of the earth and other planets relative to polestar and zodiac signs changes constantly. In about 70 years, the earth's position relative to zodiac signs changes about one degree backwards. Because of the Precession, nowadays, the sun enters into the astronomical Aries Sign on 13th or 14th of April and not on the day of Spring-Equinox.
Precession of the Equinoxes is the discovery of Vedic Indians and vedic astrology takes into consideration this phenomenon when erecting a horoscope and western astrology does not. Thus the positions of the planets in a vedic horoscope and the western horoscopes are different. This is the fundamental difference between the vedic and western astrology.
Besides the zodiac of Twelve Signs, vedic astrology also uses a zodiac of Twenty-seven Signs called Nakshatras or Moon Mansions.
In a vedic horoscope a sign is never split into two Houses. Ascendant placed at any degree of a sign shall make the entire sign as 1st House and 2nd sign to it shall make the 2nd House and so on.
In a vedic horoscope, the Ascendant and the Moon are the most important factors to decide the mood of the entire horoscope. The Sun has no special importance in the vedic astrology as it has in the western.
In vedic astrology, the horoscope analysis is based not only on Natal Horoscope but one takes help from other fifteen different Divisional Horoscopes that are generated by the Natal Horoscope. In order to confirm one indication, one uses many types of Ascendants and Karkas (significators). The Aspects and Conjunctions are also interpreted differently.
Vedic Astrology has a unique system to time events of the past, present and future. This is the Dasha system - Planetary Periods. Every person gets a unique Planetary Almanac that indicates the possible events or changes in life during a certain period of time. Moon's position in a Nakshatra Sign at the time of birth decides the start of first Dasha Period in a person's life. Every planet as a Ruler, as a Tenant, as a Karka (Significator) has a fixed duration of its Dasha Period during which it shall give results - good, bad or mixed. Planetary Transits are used to verify the results of Dasha Periods.
Vedic Astrology has another unique system of prediction - Yogas (Planetary Unions or combinations). Yogas give specific indications which usual horoscope analysis can not.
Vedic Astrology is known by many names - Indian Astrology, Hindu Astrology, Predictive Astrology, Karma Astrology, Muhurta Astrology (choosing auspicious times to begin a successful project), Compatibility Astrology (choosing right partners for marriage or business) or Jyotisha (the science of lights or enlightenment). Present Indian Astrology is an amalgamation of many different systems of astrology practised and developed in different parts of India over thousands of years.
In India, astrological knowledge started circa 4,500 years before Christ was born. The first ever written book on Vedic Astrology is Brihat Parashara Hora Sashtra by a Vedic seer called Parashara about 1,500 years before Christ. This book is still available and is the basic source of Vedic Astrological knowledge of India.
Vedic Astrology is an integral part of vedic metaphysical and philosophical tradition and Vedic Medical System called Ayur Veda (life's knowledge). Vedic Astrology is the shortest way to assess the temperament and mental health of a person.
Vedic Astrology is a wonderful tool for personality analysis. Vedic astrology is a quick method to judge a person's temperament and mental health. Every person is a centre of his own psychic universe. Our Horoscope is a map of our psyche, our inner sky, our ego-complex, our will, our potentials to influence the world, our purpose of life and our Karma. The Planets symbolise, among many other things, the archetypal forces of our mind and body. The Signs symbolise the archetypal patterns of these forces. The Houses symbolise the archetypal areas in which these forces can manifest.
Astrology reveals our existential problems. At any given time the possible problem will be visible in the horoscope. It reveals a person at subjective, social, material and spiritual level. There is also a pinch of destiny and luck in life. These are the things that make human beings different from each other even though two persons might have an identical IQ, chance and starting point.
The Dashas (planetary periods) and the Transits symbolise the celestial clock which activates hormonal secretions in our body and makes us feel and behave in a certain manner and direction. They create tensions and intentions in us and make us act. Behind every action there is an intention. Dashas indicate a person's inner evolution, metamorphosis through time and experience and indicate what one can possibly experience at mental, physical, social and material level.
To attain material happiness one should achieve success in three main areas of life - Dharma, Artha and Kama. These are the material aims to solve our existential problems and to fulfil our moral, economic, social and emotional needs. These aims attach us to Maya ( the material world) and make us dependent on it. They also give moral, economic, social and political structure to a society. Most of the people don't live beyond this dimension.
Dharma
Dharma is the ethical and moral code of life. It indicates our obligations towards Nature, our fellow-beings and society. It is for the development of an individual's religious, moral and social consciousness. Thus it covers the concept of education, knowledge, justice and righteousness.
Artha
Artha is our basic right to achieve economic prosperity and status in life. It is the wealth that rules the world. Our aims to achieve wealth and status can make us very selfish, very greedy, very egocentric and very destructive. We want more and more wealth. We follow the illusion of Maya and forget that in the end no wealth and status can save us.
Kama
Kama is the god of love and desire. It tells what you love and desire most in life. Kama is our basic right to enjoy life through sensory experiences of art, music, drinking, love and sex. Kama feeds and increases our desires. Kama’s main function is to generate procreation.
Mokhsha
Besides the fulfilment of the existential and physical needs that give happiness there is a further aim of life - Mokhsha (freedom or enlightenment).
Mokhsha is the philosophical, spiritual and transcendental aim of life. It is an individual's quest for enlightenment, liberation from ignorance, mental equipoise, beatific-vision or Sat-Chit-Ananda (Being-Awareness-Bliss).

Astrology confirms that the phenomenal universe and living beings are made of the same stuff. It believes that every part of the universe is interconnected, interdependent and influences each other. Microcosm is the replica of Macrocosm. In the ecosystem, the essence of all life is the same - to exist, to procreate and to flourish.
Big Bang that created our solar system also created the celestial clock by putting the planets into motion. This celestial clock symbolises the eternal Wheel of Time and Change in space. It has created the archetypal patterns of revolving years, seasons, months, days and nights, mornings and evenings, middays and midnights, tides and ebbs. Solar system has also given the concept of directions - east and west or rising and setting sun, north and south or nadir and zenith. Our terrestrial clock and compass are only finely tuned extensions of the solar system.
Astrology believes that in addition to our will there is a Divine Order that controls and shapes our lives. An individual's will functions within the Divine Will.
Karma - the base of destiny and luck
Karma means action, work or deed. Our universe came into existence by Big Bang. That was the first Karma. Karma is the outcome of an intention. Our Karmas expose us. Karmas cause conflicts. Karmas cause sufferings. Karmas give happiness and bliss.
Karmas make destiny and luck. Karma is the theory of cause and effect. 'As you sow, so shall you reap`. Karma is the concept of Poetic Justice in life.
The Karmas of our last life decide the destiny, fortune and luck of this life. The Karmas of this life will decide the destiny, fortune and luck of the next life. Karma is our free will to do what we like and face the results of our doings.
The Will of God and the Grace of God are above the concept of Karma. Only God can cancel bad Karma.
Duality and Unity
Our universe and existence in it is a complex, symbolic and symbiotic alloy or synthesis of archetypal opposing and complementary forces. Philosophers have given this alloy many names - yang/yin, male/female, individual/social, body/soul, material/spiritual, manifest/unmanifest, visible/invisible, illusion/reality, changeable/eternal, good/evil and so on. Dualism is the very essence of existence.
God - the Immaterial World
The belief that behind, beyond and above the visible phenomena of Maya there is an abstract, ideal, invisible, ruling, directing, controlling, caring, creating, living and divine force called God. Some say, God and His universe are identical. Others say, God is immanent in all things but also transcendent.
God is described as infinite, eternal, First Cause, King, Father, Creator or Architect of the universe, Bridegroom, Love and Universal Self.
He is omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient, immanent, immutable, compassionate, eternal and absolute reality or Truth. God can only be realised and not held, can only be obeyed and worshipped not ordered.
God as the Soul or Spirit of the Universe is called Parm Atma. This Universal Soul is within and without us. A spark of this Soul called Atma is in every living being. We are dead without it. Thus the soul is the connecting link between Man and God, between man and man, between man and Nature. By knowing yourself, you can know God and others; and this is the reason that enlightenment comes from inside as the kingdom of God is within you.
All personal gods are just the different facets of One God.
Maya - the Material World
Maya means the phenomenal reality, the Nature, the visible material world and all that it can offer and all that can be perceived, experienced and enjoyed or suffered by our senses.
Maya is the creative power of God called Shakti. God manifests Himself through Maya. Maya is God incarnated. Maya is the Cosmic Dance engendered by God. Maya is the matter and God is the spirit. Both exist for each other. Maya's material nature is transitory; therefore it is called unreal. Since Maya is the veil of God it is called illusion. God is the spiritual and eternal Beauty called Truth, Reality and Substance. Maya is the material, short-lived and betraying beauty called Shadow. All life in Maya is also the synthesis of matter and spirit, body and soul, illusion and reality. It has transitory and archetypal elements.
Maya is also symbolised in Laxsmani - the goddess of wealth, riches, beauty and good luck. Laxsmani is also the mother of Kama - the god of love, desire and procreation. Maya is tempting and charming. Maya is the mirage and power of wealth that rules, moves and mesmerises the world. People measure success in terms of Maya - sex, status and wealth, either having too much of it or denying it all.
Evil
Scarcity of or the greed for the material assets create evil and disharmony in the world.
Evil is the product of disharmony between moral values and personal desires. In the absence of Dharma (the moral code of life) the forces of evil conspire and bring chaos in the world. Life focused only on Artha and Kama creates great vices of Kam (lust), Krodh (aggression and war), Lobh (greed and selfishness), Moh (infatuation and delusion), Ahankar (pride), egoism and jealousy in human beings. Temptation of money, sex and status is very powerful, alluring, charming and irresistible. Behind the global problems of hunger, scarcity, misery, suffering, war, destruction of mankind and Nature is human greed and selfishness. Uncontrolled desires for wealth, sex and status are the root cause of all evil. The panacea to cure evil, misery and sufferings is to revive and enkindle Dharma. The knowledge leading to edification and enlightenment is required. A man of Dharma is a man of integrity.
Suffering and Pain Be thou Shiva, be thou Parvati, Be thou Vishnu, be thou Laxmani, Be thou Rama, be thou Krishna, Be thou Budha, be thou Christ, Be thou Prophet, be thou Virgin Mary, Be thou Guru, be thou disciple, Thou shall not escape pain, suffering and slander. Be thou so powerful that you rule the world, Be thou so rich that you own the World Bank, Be thou Dhanvantri - the doctor of the gods, Be thou Vishvakarma - the architect of the world, Be thou Venus - the goddess of beauty and arts, Be thou the hero who stuns the world, Thou shall not escape pain, suffering and slander. Be that you have ideal parents, Be that you have promising children, Be that you are married to Helen of Troy, Be that you are the wife of Cupid, Be that people canonise and worship you, Be that you own the Lamp with Genie that serves every wish, Thou shall not escape pain, suffering and slander.
Suffering and pain is an eternal phenomenon. Every one has to cross this inferno. This is the price we have to pay in order to exist. From the vedic point of view, we suffer in this life because of our Bad Karma - bad luck. We have to repay the debt of bad deeds we have done in our previous life
How to diminish pain and suffering of being alive?
Our forefathers have left plenty of recipes and Mantras telling us how to escape pain and suffering. Do they work? Of course yes, but every recipe or Mantra does not suit everybody. One has to find one that suits one best.
Human mind is the beginning and end of all feeling, thinking and awareness. It is the mind, yes it is the mind, we have to take care of. We can calm it by understanding, by worship, by meditation and by physical work. An empty brain is a devil's workshop. Fill it and channelise your energies. To avoid misery, find some creative hobby and follow it with reckless abandon.
Our body is also self-regulating like our mind and has a wonderful mechanism of self-defence and self-cure. Often we have to activate this mechanism. Challenge the pain and the pain will loose its grip. To endure is to defy pain.
Suffering and pain have positive sides as well. They shake our self-complacency, teach us, purge our soul, make us humble and compassionate, develop our third dimensional insight, bring depth in our life and lead us to reality and enlightenment. There is a dormant Inner Light in every human being. Often we need some traumatic shock to enkindle it.
Change
Fortune turns like a wheel. Change is the unchangeable law of nature. Everything is in a cyclic motion and renewing itself. As is the Nature so is our inner nature, both are self-regulating. We change, renew and readjust our selves according to the new circumstances. Unwanted change is shocking and painful. Every event in life has some meaning. Try to see that meaning. Since "There's a divinity that shapes our ends", let the wheel of Karma move on. Changes are illuminating and a blessing in disguise.
Inner evolution
Self-realisation is an inner evolution. It can be devoloped through knowledge, physical and mental exercises (Tantra, Mantra and Yantra Yogas), spirutal devotion and worship.
It is beyond and above any religious system or ceremony. To be religious means that you have taken an oath to live by the rules, rituals and taboos of a religious system without questioning them. Religions hinder enlightenment though they may be a good start. Religions make people orthodox and an orthodox believer is not open to change and enlightenment. In order to love and worship God there is no need of rituals, temples, mediators, saviours, gurus, priests, holy places, pilgrimages, offerings, sacrifices and commandments. These are all manmade rules and rituals more for commerce, social, religious and political power rather than to love and worship God. Those saviours who could not save themselves, how can they possibly save you?
For en enlightened man - Kam (lust) turns into pure love ; Krodh (anger) turns into compassion and pity; Lobh (greed) turns into charity; Moh (delusion) turns into enlightenment, renunciation and asceticism; Ahankar (pride) turns into humility and service of mankind and jealousy turns into contentment.
God
The word God has multiple meanings. It is up to an individual how he sees life, life's values, Nature, forces of nature and God.
God is an ideal picture of all morality, ethics, happiness and perfection. God is also the eternal truth which the scientists or philosophers struggle to discover in Nature, natural processes and all life. It is not God who has created misery and poverty on this earth but we human beings.
