  1. Astrology for long is considered as a source of knowledge and wisdom even in realms of the material world. For over the ages, Astrology was considered as a good source of self-knowledge. Astrology was conceived and grew in the times when people thought that celestial bodies have a close link with mankind and what is going on in the terrestrial world. It is a way of philosophy which interconnects everything happening amongst living beings in this material and spiritual world. Contrary to the contemporary belief of biological accident, Astrology believes in the theory of Karma, where there is a purpose for every living being.

    The birth chart (or) horoscope is one’s individual map showing character and personality and reflecting something bigger in the ever changing wheel of the world. Astrology is an inward art that focuses on the experience that one has in this world.

Astrology attempts to throw light on what is in store for a man, nation, world at large. Lot of mathematical calculations are involved in predictions. The Astrologer actually found a link between the movements of planets and what happens in the world.
