The meaning of the word Saptarishis is Seven Sages!
‘According to spititualists, these Seven Rishis (ages) are
thesame beings astound in vatiousother religions where
they may also he called Archangels [tis believed that
these Archangels ot Saptarishis are working ditectly
under the gnidanceof theSupreme God orCreative Force

Saptarishis/Archangelscomesin Sowe alsopray tothem

astrology which can in reality help people in their
troubled times.
Throughout hisiory, there hes been lot of controversy in
oth the west and east as to whe ate the real Seven
Chosen Ones’. At some later stage we will touch upon
them in detail. The Satapata Brahmana and
Brihadaranyaka Upanished (224) mentions the names
‘of seven rishis (or Saptarishis) ~ Atri, Bharadvaja
Gantam, Jamadagni, Keshyapa, Vasishte, Vishwamitra,
This order also changes as per time (yuge), according to
the Path Of Light the current Saptarishis are:~ Bhrighu,
Auii,Argitasa, VesishtaPulasiyaPulaha, Kratu
Similarly, there is slight discrepancy among the names
even in Judaism, where seven archangels ace mentioned
in the Kabbalah, Book of Enoch and Life of Adam and
Eve. Then we find mention of only two archangels in the
New Testament of Christianity, whilst in easternorthorlox

Many of usin India have this view that westem astrology
hasnothing to offer except psychology but thisisfar fom
thetruth.ltisonly when we go deep and wnerstand their
science would we appreciate what it hes to offer. The
ceadlersol this magazine are global asare the authors auc
cachoncol you would find alototdifficultyin coping with
what the other is writing, Itwould be very easy for us to
form an opinion and dismiss an article, which has taken
probably fifteen days for the author to write and years of
working on that method, A humble suggestion can he
‘madd; kip those contents that are not unclerstanclable or
real just a few of them to slowly gtasp them. Indian
astiology is mixed with religion, at the same time
supeistitious beliefs have also entered into it which can
tumofl the averegescientificmindof the westemer Some
fantastic points can he gained fiom either system. Years
ago we would have skipped an article of a westem
astrologer but if we do that now we would miss « great
clue. For example Joyce Hopewell tells us that Planets
give their best resalts at {13 degrees) shouldn't we in this
part of the continent probe deeper if it works for us
‘withoutforming an instant opinion, Similarly,out request
is for the westem astrology adept to read some of the
atticles of Indian estrology and espectally the post- tt
notes wherein we feel sidereal technigues could be
applicd in tiopicalsystems els.
The Palm Leaves’ at the end of each article are the rules
that we have gathered over the yeass alter speaking to
tare astrologers and yogis. Same of these rules have been
methodically tested and some need further testing, so we
include themin the magazine o that group testing can be
cartied out on elaborated data in the futuee. Verses are

In this Inangural Issue, some fantastic researches are
presented like the section on Gold, like Shri

WEGold, Mr. lrangantis excellent exposition on a
rare verse, an article on western concept of progressions
and how to use it in Indian Jyotish. We went against
publishing norms to bring a previously published article
so that readers get more aware that there 1s more to
Chinese astrology than just ontmal signs. This practice of
re-publishing previous works would be followed in this
space.
The Seed
PET ot many years we saw an old astrologer in his
PP rincties, who had given to the world a wealth of
F- astrology and gems of knowledge. Even though he
had been awarded the Life Time Achievement
Award by the American Council of Vedic Astrology he
spent his later years in poverty, Some of his students tried
to help but with litte effect. Seeing his suffering, we
realized that, like him, thousands of astrologers over the
Globo die in poverty and the very same astrological
community to whom they distributed knowledge free of
cost doosnat come totheirhelpattimeso{ nced.thundieds
of astrological organizations exist, cach with their own
focus, bat it is felt if the astrological community unites
then something good can be done to help astrologers in
need. Even tf we are able to help five astrologers ta this
Iifetime our life is fulfilled. Readers will recommend
astrologers in need of help. Saptarishis’ Astrology does
not scekcany donation buta good part ofthe profit will 56
in charity, Ideally it is not dosirable to talk abont onos
charity as the saying gces in spiritual circles: whon you
donate,do not aven lat your shadow come to know about
it! but our aim is good and hence our only request is co-
operation and patience Our business model has a
capitalistic orientation giving a win-win situation for
everyone as in time to come the consultation ar of the
organization will besterted with heavy promotions
The other aim is to get rare works translated in English.
Tho various anciont manuscripts (nadie) our organization
hascollected are gatheringdust and need tobetranslated
for tho bonolit of astrological community, Tho magazine

subscription based. Right now if readers axe happy with
thecoateat, they may donate up to two dellass maximum
(for Indians up to sixty three nypees) per issue. The
principle{cllowed is amanshould pay oaly how much he

The main aim of the magazine is bring those old

Got it trenslated for thom with the halp of voluntoars. Tho
amount of knowledge hiddon is so vast that astrologors
dll donot know the full potential of astrology. Speaking
of hidden knowledge we remember the words of Shri
Madura Krishna Murthy Shastry. This knowledge
belongsto the Sages, we have no right tokeepit hidden.
Once Upon a Time
Fhe Story goeslike this-Ina remotevillage in
KC (Mj Josie, which most Indians have not even heard of,
|S there wasan old astrologer who was almost blind
and deaf, who suffered from all kinds of ailments He was
known to possess some sore knowledge in Jaimini
Astiology. He bad not lifted a pen in eleven years but
whien contacted by Soptorishis’ Astrology he was
delightedand inspite ofbisailments esaidlac just might

He went by the name of YKrishna Rao, the student of the

When you hear of such news all work stops, you feel
