For over 5,000 years the people of India have used jyotish, or Vedic astrology, to anticipate future influences and make major decisions. Now Andrew Bloomfield brings this increasingly popular tool to the West in an easy-to-follow, comprehensive format, providing the reader with everything needed to practice the Indian art of predicting the future. Vedic astrology was codified by the ancient Maharishis to help people achieve the four basic goals of human existence: kama (desire), artha (wealth), dharma (life purpose), and moksha (spiritual growth). Unlike other forms of astrology, Vedic calculations focus more on the primal, unconscious, driving forces linking our thoughts and actions. How to Practice Vedic Astrology shows how to make accurate predictions on when to expect life's changes concerning one's career, love life, children, or spirituality.

"How to use the vishotri dasa system, the predictive method that allows startlingly accurate predictions about periods in a person’s life."--Publisher description.

A comprehensive guide to the techniques of astrological interpretation The Art of Interpreting Horoscopes gives, for the first time ever, the definition of a Graha in astrology. Shows how ancient classical dicta can be adapted and applied to contemporary charts to analyse: * Prim-Ministerial Yogas * Neechabhanga Raja Yoga * Adhi Yoga and Celebrity Status * Cases of Crime and Criminals * Crime Investigation * Possibility of Children and IVF * Loss of Children * Marriage from Navamsa Clues * Factors for Love Marriage * Swearing-in charts * Loss of Children India has always been an astrological society but at some point of time in the early part of the 20th century, the educated began to develop a certain distaste for this ancient science, largely because of the educational system in the country which distanced itself from the traditional branches of learning under a mistaken notion that by doing so, it was proving its rational credentials. However astrology being as good a science as any other of the modern ones, has stood the test of time and in recent years has made a resurgent reappearance as a result of my revered father, Father of Modern Astrology, the Late Dr. B. V. Raman's relentless efforts to propagate it as an academic subject. Astrology has now captured the interest of large segments of the educated public. The wave of resurgence has swept away this pseudo-rationalist resistance bringing with it the realization of the invaluable role astrology can play in helping cope with the ills of modern society. There has been some kind of snowballing effect in educated circles, both in our own country as well as in the west, primarily the United States of America, in their eagerness to retrieve, revive and restore Jyotish to its pristine glory. The ancient classical works on the subject are now being eagerly lapped up but the problem begins because of the times when the astrological rules were first formulated being so different from our own. The author has made effort to adapt and apply these rules in the form of dicta, Yogas and combinations to contemporary life in the process seeking to bridge the gap between the ancient rules and their application value to the present.

Hindu philosophy believes in rebirth. If there are any desires left during the last births then the soul takes reincarnation to fulfil those desires. Whatever good or bad situations a person faces in his life is the fruit of Karmas accumulated by him during his past incarnations. Good deeds result in auspicious events and comfortable life, bad deeds are the cause of suffering. Karma theory works as "cause and effect". The Karmas accumulated during past births are the cause and the comforts or sufferings in the present life is the effect. Astrology works on the principles of Karma. The horoscope is the result of the deeds of a person in the past incarnations. And the good or bad yogas in the horoscope are because of the good or bad Karmas accumulated by the person. "Past life and pending Karmas" deals with the techniques of finding out the past life Karmas and how these Karmas will influence the present life. The chapters in this books talks about various astrological principles and techniques for deciphering the Karmic debts: 1.Signs, Planets, and Houses. 2.Storehouse of Karma. 3.Moon's nodes and pending Karmas. 4.Nodes in different signs and the Karmas. 5.Karmic Controllers. 6.Retrograde Planets and forgotten tasks. 8. Twelve Types of Kalsarpa dosha, and Pitru dosha and their remedies. 7.D-60 Chart and the past life. 8.Example Chart.

Astrology and interest in it have been growing at a pace that does justice to the subject as a discipline of great consequence in handling the complexities and ills of human life and existence. Authoritative works on astrology abound in Sanskrit and several of them have been translated into English by scholars. These translations are a great boon to the diligent student and carry innumerable combinations and dicta covering almost all aspects of life. However, the difficulty lies in their actual application to horoscopes where the skills of the astrology student are challenged to the limit.

This shows further how to analyse and understand: *Yogas for fame and lasting reputation, renunciation, spiritual realization, tyranny and homicidal tendencies. *Difficult concepts such as the difference between Resi and Bhave, Yamaganda and Yamakantaka, the Moon's role in understanding human psychology and behaviours and the nexus between Rahu-Ketu and schizophrenic tendencies. *Eclipses and how they influence the timing of events. *Solar activity and planetary movements in relation to weather, agricultural crops and tsunamis. *Principles of Muhurta and natal horoscopy in making forecasts on the fall and continuance of governments and how Martian movements can trigger terrorist attacks such as that of September 11, 2001. *Simplifies the intricate art of chart delineation with illustrations of important personalities.
