In almost all civilizations and developed cultures the science of

foretelling future was cultivated, be it Sumer, Egypt, Babylone, Indus,

China or Greece. But never so deep and so mathematically correct this

science was developed in any other country except India. Our Rishis and

Acharyas were at the top in many a faculty of science, like Medicine,

Physics, Chemistry, Astronomy and Astrology. Since times immemorial man

wondered about the moving and comparatively steady objects, twinkling in

the sky by night; from this he started calculating the speed and exact

positions of the planets, various zodiacs and constellations; from this

Astrology developed.

 

The greatness of our sages lies in the fact that they studied it so deep

that they could ascertain the effect of the starts even on non-living

substances. Not only this but research goes on in this science from the

Vedic Age to this date.

 

The basic idea underlying this research was to serve the community at

large. Atharva-ved depicts Jyotish-Astrology- as the fourth organ of

Vedas out of six. It is called Netra (eye) of the community. According

to the Vedas the movement and the Drashti Avm Vedh (aspects and

conjunctions) of the stars do affect not only the humanity, but the

forces of nature even like rains, cold, heat etc.

 

In the " Brahmanas " (treaties on Vedas), too, Asgtrology is given much

importance. The Narad-Sanatkumar dialogue in the Chhandogya section of

Sam Brahmana, Astrology is given due preference out of 14 'Vidyas'. The

Taiteraiya Brahaman gives details of the movement of Surya, Prithvi and

hours, the days and nights, ( " break " and " fall " ). You will be surprised

to note that even the Anushasan Parva of Mahabharat gives complete list

of Constellations and guides about the alms to be given during the span

of each and every Nakshatras (Constellations). In Bhishma Parva the

results of death in the Uttarayana and Dakshinayana are depicted in

details (so Bhishma chose to die in Uttarayana). The Udyog Parva details

the " Ashubh Yoga " due to certain planets a constellations.

 

According to the Indian mythology there are 18 Acharya of Astrology.

 

(1) Surya (2) Brahma (3) Vyas (4) Atri (5) Parasar (6) Kashyap (7)

Vashishtha (8) Narad (9) Garga (10) Marichi (11) Muni (12) Angiras (13)

Lomash (14) Paulish (15) Chyavan (16) Yavan (17) Manu (18) Shaunak

 

Lord Surya gave this Shastra first of all to Brahma, the creator, who

taught this science to Garga, Badrayan(vyas), Angiras etc. Thus the

science went on developing and to this date it has developed so far that

it can be called an ocean.

 

In fact Astrology is the fundamental science of all the sciences. It

touches every aspect of one's life, be it health, family, real estate,

money, legal tangle, romance, marital relations, luck, business,

industry, profession or service, even the death, too, can be predicted

from this. (Of course it is generally forbidden to predict one's death

forthwith.. An astrologer can say that the period is not good for health

or to be cautious about accidents, etc.)

 

The modern science, too, knows about the influence of planets. The tide

and the ebb are results of certain positions of the Sun and the Moon.

Likewise the planets can affect on our blood circulation, too. Weak Moon

makes one's mind weak or unstable or one is apt to be weak physically.

The Sun and the Moon does not affect human beings only, but they affect

the vegetation also. Generally flowers blossom by the morning but the

white Lily blossom by night, the red or pink lotus blossom on the day

break.

 

Even the animals, too, have profound effect of the Sun and the Moon. The

ires of cat changes according to the phases of Moon. They affect even

the sexual impulses not only in the human beings but also amongst the

animals. The effect of the planets is more sharp on the animals, as they

come to know about the impeding danger very soon. Before an earthquake,

the serpants come out of their bidings, so do other animals. The birds,

too, fly here and there. During the eclipse of the Sun the birds go into

slumber.

 

Who is not interested in knowing one's future ? Even the scientists try

to enter into the future. We know about the past and present. But can't

we know about the future ? There should be some way to know it. The

scientists call it futurology. This science is being developed since a

couple of decades and astrology, too, has got a footage in the prime

place in futurology. Astrology gives much weightage to the stars.

 

Astrology is divided into 3 parts. " Sidhdhant " (Principles), " Sanhita "

(Compilation) and " Hora " Astrology (Jyotish ) is called the principal

organ of the Vedas, too. Jyotish means Jyoti + Ish (Ishasya Jyotih) the

light of the God. This has references in the Vedas, Brahmanas (treaties

on the vedas), Panini Sutras, Puranas etc. Vedang Jyotish, an ancient

book on astrology, gives much of details regarding this science. Vedang

means organ of the vedas ( Vedanam Angam), so Jyotish is not the Veda

itself, but a very important part of the Vedas.(Surya Sindhdhant) an

authentic book on Astronomy by Bhaskaracharya I, give much prominence to

Astrology also. It details almost all the principles of Astrology based

on Astronomy. Now it is a known fact that in ancient times, Hindus

excelled in astronomy as well as astrology. The " Siddhant Ganit " gives

detailed calculations about the years, months and days passed by till

the date of its writing. Likewise the " Ayan " (solastics), Seasons,

movements of the planets, the solar and lunar eclipses, date ( Tithi ),

Constellations, Yoga , karan or the tangential positions etc. are

written with great exactness. Even the 'Vedh-Yantras' (sextants and

telescopes), too might have been used by the astronomers of the ancient

age in India. And had deep knowledge about Khagol (Astronomy).

 

The other two parts of Astrology, Hora avm Sanhita deal with the

prediction aspect of Astrology. The word Hora has been coined from

" Ahoratra " according to Varahmihir ( " Ho " from Aho and Ra from Ratra ).

As per HoraShastra one's life chart is drawn, as per the positions of

various planets and zodiacs (Rashi). The planets are placed in various

rashies as they are there at the time of one's birth. This chart or map

of one's life is variously called 'JanmaLagna', 'Janmagam' or

JanmKundali. Predictions are based on this.

 

In the Sidhdhant part, predictions regarding the rains, storms,

earthquakes, comets, asteroids, eclipses, " VastuShastra " , subsoil water.

Yagnas and the Muhurtas (good and bad omens), gems, effect of planets

and constellations on nations, twitching of skin on parts of bodies, (

Anga - Sfuran )etc. are given with such great exactness that one gets

amazed. All these they have given for the benefit of the people at

large.

 

Bha = light Ratam Iti Bharatam

 

The country has never seen a dark age like witnessed by Europe or other

countries of Asia and Africa (China can be an exception). The ancient

sages and scholars of India had constructed various " Yantras " to study

Astrology and framed basic yet infallible principles of it like division

of the sky in 12 Rashies, (Zodiacs) and 27 Nakshatras, (Constellations).

Also the Indian Astrologers have given the relative speeds of the

planets and satellites. Not only this but the speed has been divided

into Kala, Vikala etc. which today be calculated on the basis of hours,

minutes and seconds. So, one must be proficient in mathematics to give

correct predictions.

 

India is proud for having great astronomers like Arya bhatta, Varah

Mihir, Bhrama Gupta, Munjal, Bhatotpal, Shatanand, Bhaskaracharya I &

II. They were basically great astronomers, but have also given great

treaties on Astrology and have served the states in which they were

given the chair of " Astrologer Royal " ( Raj Jyotishi ) and through the

states they served the community at large, too. Takshshila, Kashi,

Ujjaini, Tanjaur, and Nalanda were the great Vidhyapithas, where

astronomy and astrology were taught. Here the Vedhshalas (observatories)

flourished. The Ravan Samhita, Pulatsya Samhita, Jambali Samhita, Indra

Samhita, Surya Samhita, Arun Samhita, Jaimini Samhita, Rudra Samhita are

authentic works on astrology.

 

Thus astrology is imbedded thorough and thorough in our lives. Even a

lay man may be, out of curiousity only, is interested in this science.

This gives rise to religiousness. Most of the people take and follow

advice of Jyotishi still many a people are apt to belittle this great

science as superstition and bigotary. They never miss an opportunity to

degrade this science, when a prediction goes haywire. But nobody blames

the medical science, if an operation fails or nobody blames the

judiciary, if he/she losses a suite. So why blames astrologers and

especially astrology for prediction which may not prove 100% correct ?

 

This is a blasphemy. As the science has been developed by great

astronomers and astrologers of the past. But the most in human

aggressions by the foriegners and our ignorance of this valuable

knowledge, we have lost many more about this science. By this reason

create a doubt on this science. Not only this the pseudo-astrologers,and

money minded astrologers who misguide the people and devalued astrology.

But Astrology is excellent science. So till now a day people have not

only trust but confidence too on Astrology. So many ctriticism developed

in front of Astrology, inspite of this astrology maintained its own

existence.

 

The pseudo-astrologers of our age have almost completed this viscious

circle. More so those who have real knowledge, are mostly greedy who

almost squeeze their clients. This has led to further decline. All other

sciences like, physics, mathematics, chemistry, medical science,

sociology, economics deal with one subject only, but astrology deals

with almost all the faculties.

 

So Astrology is not only a science, but a science of all sciences.
