3/28/2015 14 Comments Astrology Meaning Astrology is the study and interpretation of the effects of planets in the sky at the time of birth. Here we are learning the Indian astrology and few of you who had previous study of western astrology may find it a bit different. Indian astrology is more precise and is based on sound scientific and mathematical principles. For learning the astrology you need to understand few simple terms used again and again in astrology.
Keep your horoscope ready with you. For following this book the Vedic horoscope (only) will be needed. You can create your horoscope free of cost from many thousands of free online applications and software on internet. You can get your horoscope from www.mykundali.com. For starting, use only Lagna Chart. This is very simple to create your horoscope and if you want you can download many other programs free of cost.

Don’t be confused by seeing many different charts and stay on the main horoscope (Lagna Horoscope) only. It will look something as given below. Here you can see that the big square is distributed in 12 parts and there are numbers written from 1-12 in all the 12 parts. These numbers denote the signs or zodiac signs (also called rashi). These signs are from Aries to Pisces and most of you might have heard about them. Any way below is a brief description of the signs telling what they really are. Keep your horoscope with you and we will come back to it for discussing other aspects of it and what else it has. Astrology means ‘Jyotish’ in Hindi which means a flame or torch. A torch that shows the light. So it means that Jyotish i.e. astrology shows the light to the confused and lost people or to anybody else who seeks some guidance. Astrology in India was never thought to be a subject of fun or only a subject for making money by telling the fortune of people. Rather it was always taken with lot of respect and the most gifted and intelligent people were asked to learn it and practice it. We say it in India that Astrology is only for intelligent people and if one is not intelligent then either he will run away from it or with the time he’ll become intelligent.
The present blog is a concise effort that gives the first few lessons of Indian Astrology. Indian astrology is known for its rich tradition of knowledge and accurate predictions. There are thousand many books available on various systems of astrology in the market. But there is no single book that is helpful for the new learner. Most of the astrology books directly tell the hundreds of the combinations or Yogas without explaining the rule behind them. The reader can remember them but can’t learn the logic behind it. So he fails to learn astrology itself unless by some grace of God or with the help of some teacher he comes to know the principles behind those Yogas. This small book offers the basic but systematic presentation of astrological principles used in interpretation. These principles are easy to follow and learn. After reading and practicing on few charts the reader should be able to read the horoscope of everyone with great success. Of-course a lot more advance study and experience will be required for the thorough knowledge. |
