Tropical and Sidereal (Vedic) Astrology - How to Reconcile?

[Guest guest]

Tropical Astrology deals with a person's external character. Vedic

Astrology, however, covers the person's inner character.

 

Let's take the sign Libra as defined in Tropical Astrology. The

person is always in 'balance' with its surrounding whether the

physical environment or in relationships. There is the constant

ajustment seeking the balance of the overall effect which is imparted

by the individual via direct or indirect means.

 

However, the individual is under Virgo in Verdic (at least most of it

- the 1st 23 - 24 degrees of Tropical Libra for people born between

1950 - 2000). This shows a large portion of Librans in Tropical are

meticulous in their work - not shown so explicitly as someone who is a

Virgo in Tropical Astrology but still meticulous to a fault always

either working behind the scenes to 'touch up' or seeking mental

analysis of all around them. No wonder they are so critical inwardly

of their loved ones though outwardly they adjust to their loved ones

temperament. Interesting isn't it?

 

Tropical Astrology deals with Tropical Houses and Vedic Astrology

deals with Vedic Houses. Are they different?

 

Yes. For example the third house in Tropical Astrology deals with

TVs, radios. In Vedic Astrology it deals with the arts - the

performing arts (not the crafts which comes under the purview of the

5th House). So the third house content can be combined for

interpretation purposes but use two charts since each kind of charts

has its own definition of the range of the sign being overlaid in that

house.

 

But there is a caveat. Some interpretations in the House content for

Tropical Astrology and Vedic Astrology contradicts! So in Vedic the

performing arts is ruled by the 3rd House. But in Tropical that area

is given to the 5th House! (Vedic associates the 5th House with

painting and crafts!)

 

Truly one must be cautious when using information from both branches

of Astrology.

Mr Hokleongk,This is the strangest version I have ever come across. I don't know who has coined this theory?Vedic astrology is quite complete in itself..we don't need to peep here and there..East is east and west is west, and the twain shall never meet.

The information I got is from various Vedic and Tropical Astrology

sites. This is followed by observation as well. East and west have

always meet since time immemorial.

I forgot to add that when both systems contradict, my preference is to

give the final decision to Vedic Astrology where House interpretations

are concerned.

 

Vedic understands the significance of the House system and has always

declared as such in its literature. Not so for Tropical Astrology.
