Vedic Astrology

Workshop Description

Astrology (Vedic)

The earliest use of Eastern astrology is the Vedic-astrology chart. It holds that the sky-observing Rishis in ancient India had an understanding about the sun, moon, planets, and stars at least 5,000 years ago. These early astronomers created a thorough classification system for the celestial bodies and visible fixed stars and used them in their observations, research and analyses of a person’s inner qualities, seen and unseen. The ancient Indian idea that “the whole is more than the sum of its parts” gave rise to an incredibly thorough study of the psychology of the individual through Vedic Astrology interpretation. The astrology chart consists of a graphical representation of the stars and planets at the exact moment, day, and location of a person’s birth. The purpose is to help someone become familiar with their astrological framework and provide remedies to empower them to rise above it. Even if you don’t believe in astrology, learning the science behind these Vedic analyses (and the suggestions provided to help counter any negative influences) can be a fascinating experience, and a cultural education. Be your own judge; if you’re interested in a different perspective when gaining insight into your life, Vedic astrology might be an option for you.
