Journey Through the Planets: A Vedic Astrology Guide”

Abstract

Vedic Astrology, known traditionally as Jyotish Shastra in Sanskrit, is the sacred science of light — Jyoti meaning “light” and Isha meaning “God” or “divine.” It is not merely a system for predicting events or personality traits; rather, it is a spiritual roadmap for self-awareness, karma, and dharma. Rooted in the ancient Vedas, Jyotish is one of the six Vedangas, or limbs of the Vedas, and is considered a divine eye — the inner vision through which one can understand the cosmic order and the soul’s journey across lifetimes.
