Astrology is the only science—or pseudoscience, as some refer to it—that can give you a peek into the future. It is exceedingly difficult to master and practice a faculty that relies on mathematical computations and the study of stars and planets. This method, which has been created and refined by numerous cultures, is used to forecast earthly occurrences based on observations of the stars.

The Indian astrological system has been designed in a way that allows it to forecast an individual’s future occurrences based on an examination of his horoscope and the placement of the planets and zodiac signs within it. Astrology is referred to as Jyotisha in India; the word comes from the Sanskrit word “Jyoti,” which means light and relates to the celestial bodies.

One of the six Vedangas, or the secondary Vedas to the primary Vedas, is Jyotisha. Jyotish is a significant part of a Hindu’s life according to Hinduism. A Hindu’s life is centered around rituals from the moment of his birth. Every ceremony is dependent on the muhurat and graha placements, which are determined by astrology. All Indian festivals have their times fixed by astrologers using their calculations. Therefore, astrology is the only tool used for creating calendars and marking holidays, etc.

Astrology makes the assumption that every celestial object has an impact on our lives. It is possible to foretell earthly and human events by seeing and interpreting these fixed stars, the Sun, the Moon, and the planets. Astrology claims that by knowing how these planets and stars affect earthly occurrences, it is possible to forecast what will happen in a person’s or a country’s existence. Understanding the powers of the planets and their positions in the horoscope allows one to make predictions. The plant’s power may be determined by calculating the planets’ degrees, locating themselves in a favorable or unfavorable house, and positioning themselves near a friendly or hostile planet. When predicting the future, a number of factors are taken into consideration, including transit positions, yogas, the degree and power of planets, houses of planets, friendly and enemy houses, and the placement of stars in horoscopes.

To make forecasts, one needs to be aware of their precise birthplace and time. Inaccurate data will not yield accurate forecasts.
