 Introduction to Vedic Astrology

Astrology has existed all over the world and at all times. It was most prevalent in ancient
religious cultures like those of Egypt, Babylonia and India. In the Europe and the Middle East
this divine study came to an end in middle ages and was replaced by medieval cultures due
to external forces.

However, the culture and religion of India maintained its continuity from ancient times. It
retained freedom in the realm of spirituality and religion; hence it is not surprising that an older
and perhaps more complete form of astrology survived there. The ritualistic calendar based
upon the stars, continues in India today as it did in Babylonia and Egypt three thousand years
ago. Modern Hindus still give prayers and offerings to the planets today as their counterparts
in the ancient Europe and the Middle East did in their times.

Vedic ("Jyotish" in Sanskrit) or Sidereal astrology differs from Western or Tropical astrology
mainly in that it uses the fixed zodiac as opposed to the moving zodiac. Because of the
gradual tilting of the earth in space on it's axis, the zodiac, if you calculate it from the Sun's
relationship to the Earth, appears to be moving at the rate of a little less than 1/60th of a
degree per year. Currently, the relative or movable zodiac is off or out of alignment with the
fixed or real star-based zodiac by roughly 24 degrees.

While both systems (Vedic & Western) use the 12 signs we all know, they use different points
of reference for Aries, the starting point of the zodiac. The tropical zodiac used by most
western astrologers places 0 degrees of Aries at the spring equinox on March 21. The sidereal
zodiac used by Vedic astrologers; however, use a fixed star reference from which to begin the
first sign. The difference is due to a slow movement (one degree every 72 years) of the Earth
and the solar system through the galaxy. This celestial phenomenon is known as the
precession of the equinoxes. Approximately 2000 years ago, there was no difference in the
two zodiacs. Over time, the gap increased so that now there is almost a 24-degree lag
between the tropical and sidereal zodiac.

We see, therefore, that two different methods of determining the signs of the zodiac exist. Each
is based on a different kind of calculation. Neither is necessarily wrong. Both are using
different measurements, though they employ the same language to speak of them.

Your horoscope has been cast as per Nirayana system of Vedic astrology.

A note on your Personality

The Ascendant describes your personality and image, the face you show the world.

Your Ascendant in Aries

Your primary motivation in life is to gain secure material circumstances and to acquire
possessions. You are basically a pragmatic realist, and though you may have all sorts of
dreams, ideals and colourful theories, you feel that the ultimate test of a concept is its practical
usefulness. You are quietly devoted to the ones you care for. You are careful and cautious in
your approach to life, realistic, practical, and disinclined to gamble. You have self-control and
self-discipline, but can also be too controlled and lacking in spontaneity.

The Sun describes your sense of personal identity, your creative expression and ability to
realize your individual potential and gain recognition.

Your Sun in Libra

This position increases your strength of will making you strong, determined, and firm. Great
courage is shown when in physical distress or mental strain. You are often dominated by
powerful emotions. You can succeed by thoroughness, determination, persistence and
concentration as these are your positive qualities and could be developed with little effort. You
are steadfast in adversity and take pride in coping with life's challenges. Everything you
achieve is earned. At times, you can be prone to bouts of extremism and obsession.

Moon represents an attunement from the past that manifests automatically, a mode of
feeling that one needs to be aware of in order to feel inwardly secure and at home with
oneself. It also shows how you react instinctively to all experiences.

Your Moon in Aries

This indicates a persistent and determined personality; it will give you some amount of
ambition, acquisitiveness, and the ability to persevere in spite of obstacles. This increases the
feelings and love nature, and also, if not controlled, there can be some emotional instability.
You can be intuitive and there will be a tendency for you to not change your views once
formed, stubborn and somewhat unyielding. You require emotional and financial security, a
stable home life and material possessions in order to achieve emotional happiness.

Taking all three, the Ascendant, Sun Sign & Moon Sign together:
This is a powerful combination and not easy to balance. There is energy to control, to reach
depths and heights with intensity, to be regarded as deep and significant is tied up with the
need to be keep things safe, secure and fixed. If the emotional component does not run away
with the ambition, the material success can be awesome. But care is needed to control the
emotional side, because if it gets upper hand then you are capable of fits of gloom, despair,
and despondency which may be a real menace to your peace of mind and you need to find a
constructive outlet for your intellectual & emotional energies.

Answers to The Question

Question: I will be staying at Dehradun from 16th July onwards for 4 college years.
According to my all round benefits, especially destiny and spiritual upliftment, for the
good of the universe, which place should I stay-

1.Staying in private hostel altogether like others in the village (the college is in village, 9
km away from the city) and abiding by their rules OR

2.Staying in personal rental house separately, away from the University, students and
mess, and thus stay in the city abiding by my own rules?

Answer: For your spiritual growth as well as practical learning, you have to stay with others. It
will not be easy and you have to take some care and take life and people as they come, with
open mind. You neither have to be too suspicious nor have to be carefree or make friends or
believe others too quickly. If you stay in separate personal rental home, life could be
comfortable but you will not learn many things which will prepare you for life to come after
college. Wearing Ruby and Red Coral will be favorable.
