Learning Vedic Astrology


                                                          ॐ गुरुवे नमः

The self-learning is an unending tedious process for learning and understanding new things which requires tons of courage, luck and consistency  to stay focused on the topic in hand.  It needs strong passion, commitment, hard work, self motivation and discipline for learning. In ancient times there was a tradition of Gurukul (the Indian tradition for learning from gurus) where the gurus (the revered teachers) used to train their students in conventional brick & mortar environment. It was not easier to share knowledge in a flowing fashion. Fortunately we have reached in such a era where the social media offer us the tools to share our thoughts and opinions freely with others all across the world communication from our homes and offices.

The Internet motivates me also to grab this opportunity to share the divine knowledge of astrology, known as Jyotisha “the light from God” or Hindu Astrology or Vedic Astrology, as a student with other curious people who are fascinated towards the mysticism of life. The astrology has solid innate potential to decode the hidden planetary influences on our lives but we need to have wisdom, common sense and humility to apply the principles of astrology very carefully in our charts to understand it. We cannot do it with great success unless we have great analytical and interpreting skills which, of course, are available to us with the blessings of Lord Jupiter and Mercury. We will discuss it sometimes later. I will share my knowledge the way it comes to my mind in a flexible schedule. I have to plan yet how we will start because I had been a student all my life and not tried as teacher. So I think we start from scratch and go from there. I don’t want to confuse you. I think this blog is for ‘toddlers’ who want to start learning astology slowly. But the rest all depends on your response who things will go.
