What is Vedic Astrology? Why should we Refer to Vedic astrology?
Vedic Astrology is an ancient Indian science that explains planetary motions and positions with respect to time and their effect on humans and other entities on earth. Vedic astrology can be traced thousands of years back. Early Vedic astrology was only based on the movement of planets with respect to stars, but later on, it started including zodiac signs as well. According to Vedic astrology, there are 27 constellations made up of 12 zodiac signs, 9 planets and 12 houses with each house and planet representing some aspect of human life. Depending on when a person is born, the 12 signs are distributed among the 12 houses and 9 planets are placed in various houses. This visual representation of the snapshot of the signs and planets is called a horoscope chart. Vedic astrology is nothing but interpreting the meaning of these arrangements as it applies to humans and other entities.
TYPES OF VEDIC ASTROLOGY
Vedic Astrology (Jyotisha) has three main branches:
Siddhanta (Astronomy): Astronomy & its application to astrology
Samhita (Mundane astrology): Covers Mundane astrology, predicting important events related to countries such as war, earthquakes, political events, Astro – meteorology, financial positions, election astrology. House & construction related matters (Vaastu Shaastra), animals, portents & omens etc.
Hora (Predictive astrology):
This branch has the following different styles/sub-branches:-
- Jataka Shaastra / Hora Shaastra (Natal Astrology/horoscopy): Prediction based on individual horoscope.
- Muhurt or Muhurtha (Electional astrology): Selection of beneficial time to initiate an activity to get maximum fruition from the life activities.
- Swar Shaastra (Phonetical astrology): Predictions based on name & sounds.
- Prashna (Horary astrology): Predictions based on the time when a question is asked by a querent/querist.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN VEDIC AND WESTERN ASTROLOGY
The most easily referred to as the difference between the two lies in the method of measurement of the Zodiac. Vedic astrology uses primarily the sidereal zodiac (in which stars are considered to be the fixed background against which the motion of the planets is measured), whereas most Western astrology uses the tropical zodiac (the motion of the planets is measured against the position of the Sun on the Spring equinox). This difference becomes only noticeable over time, after the course of several centuries, as a result of the precession of the equinoxes. Synchronically, the two systems are identical, with just a shift of the origin of the ecliptic longitude by about 22 degrees or days, resulting in the placement of planets in the previous sign-in Western charts about 80% of the time.
SCIENTIFIC BASIS OF VEDIC ASTROLOGY
Ancient Hindu literature is full of mythology related to zodiac signs, constellations (also known as Nakshatras) and planets, which explain a lot of astrological rules. However, the popular opinion is that mythology was just a method that our ancient seers used to explain some very complex physical laws, which were beyond the comprehension of common people. Unfortunately even today”s modern science has not been able to fully understand those physical laws behind this ancient method
Vedic Astrology is a time tested and very efficient predictive tool used for thousands of years to map out major events and issues and concerns in life. Struggle in life can be managed with little guidelines from Vedic Astrology.
Vedic Astrology is the most important shastra as it is considered as the Eyes of Vedas.
