Why vedic astrology?
The “Science of Light”
The Sanskrit word for Vedic astrology is Jyotish, which translates as science of light. Jyotish is rooted in the ancient Vedas, and has been actively used for over 3,000 years. This system is designed to shed light on how everything, including us, is more deeply and profoundly connected to the universe and time than we realize.
Using Jyotish techniques, Jyotiṣīs (Vedic astrologers) can offer amazing guidance and insights into a person’s life on many levels. This insight can lead to better self-awareness and acceptance, help you plan and prepare for future events and gain tools to smooth over the rough areas and obstacles in your chart as well as amplify the sweet spots and strengths.

Powerful Healing
Alongside its highly complex interpretative and predictive techniques, Vedic astrology also offers remedies for healing that have been successfully put to the test for thousands of years.
Common forms of remediation include chanting specific mantras, wearing gemstones associated with particular planets, performing rituals (pujas), offering donations, and observing fasts on certain days. The goal of these practices is to balance planetary energies, alleviate challenges, promote overall well-being and achieve both material and spiritual growth.
“Karma Doctors”
In many ways, karma is the stellar bread and butter of Vedic astrologers. When reading a chart, they are seeing all the karma you are dealing with in this lifetime, including your circumstances, gifts and challenges.
For remedies to work, they need to be specifically chosen to tackle particular issues in your chart. Just as a doctor won’t get far prescribing aspirin to someone suffering from liver cancer or insulin to someone battling a nasty cold, so is it the same for the karmic level healing Jyotiṣīs can offer.
Therefore, Vedic astrologers act as “karma doctors” who help you better both your current as well as future lives by giving your guidance and remedies to burn off bad karma and strengthen good karma – actions that will bring more balance and well-being to your life and to the world.
