What is Vedic Astrology?
Vedic astrology, or Jyotish Shastra, is the ancient Indian system of astrology dating back over 5,000 years. Unlike Western tropical astrology, Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac — accounting for the actual positions of stars and constellations. This makes it uniquely precise for timing life events.
Key Components of Your Vedic Chart
- Rashi (Moon Sign): Your emotional nature and mental tendencies, considered more important than Sun sign in Vedic astrology.
- Nakshatra: One of 27 lunar mansions that reveals your deeper personality, karmic patterns, and life purpose.
- Dasha System: Planetary periods that predict the timing of major life events — career changes, relationships, health, and spiritual growth.
- Lagna (Ascendant): The sign rising on the eastern horizon at birth, shaping your physical appearance and life direction.
