“Vedic Astrology” refers to an ancient Indian or Hindu astrology, originated in India, Vedic astrology originally comes to us from the Rig Veda, the oldest of the four Vedas and further especially in “The Yajur Veda” has an appendix called “Vedanga Jyotiṣa”, which translates to ‘Vedic Astrology’ written approx 5,000 – 8,000 years ago. Its Indian name is Jyotish, which means “science of light” because it is the science of observing the celestial bodies that reflect their energy and light upon the, Earth, therefore influencing the course of human events. Vedic Astrology is the use of “planetary periods” of influence. The periods are incredibly predictive. By looking to that planet in the chart – its sign, house, aspects, house lordship, conjunctions, and strength – one can tell very specifically what a person can expect to experience during that planetary period. Each major period is then broken down into sub-periods lasting one to three years, which then adds another layer of prediction. In nut shell you can say “Vedic astrology” deals with astral light patterns that are thought to determine our destiny.
