A comprehensive guide to understanding and practicing Vedic astrology, the art of jyotish. • Teaches beginners how to read and interpret Vedic astrology charts, based on their own birth chart as well as the birth charts of 112 notable people. • Shows how to use Vedic astrology to anticipate upcoming events and direct the cosmic energies of one's life toward a positive future outcome.

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.

In this book you will experience the life of astrologer Joni Patry as she grew up in a conservative realm of non-believers of astrology in Dallas, Texas. She was first introduced to the world of astrology through the profound prediction of Jeane Dixon as she forebodes President Kennedy not to come to Dallas, Texas, on November 21, 1963. The very next day the unthinkable occurred and it has been a part of Joni's awareness with her ties to the circumstances living in Dallas, Texas. This brought her to the discovery of astrology. The intricate and complicated world of astrological prediction has been Joni's passion. She has explored the depths of western astrology leading to her discovery of the incredible predictive value of Indian Vedic astrology. She takes the values of both systems and devises a way to blend both systems to understand the cycles to forecast the future. The first part of the book discusses her techniques for world predictions, including her prediction of Japan's catastrophic earthquake before it occurred March 11, 2011. There is an explanation of the grand cycles siphoning down to the smaller cycles for the specific timing of these events. There are cycles within cycles of the planetary patterns in the heavens. It ranges from the grand cycle of Precession of the Equinoxes, to the cycles of the outer planets, cycle of Saturn and Jupiter, Rahu and Ketu, eclipses, retrograde planets, and the cycles of the faster planets, Mars, Venus, and Mercury. But the most specific timer that predicts down to the day is seen through the Moon. The second part of the book breaks down the incredible predictive power of Vedic astrology using the nakshatras and how they determine the cycles of a person's life. This complicated system of prediction used in Vedic astrology is broken down to a step-by-step system that can be understood by even a novice. To bring home the predictive value and accuracy of this system, Joni explores the well-documented lives of the Kennedy family. Beginning with Joseph Kennedy Sr., through the trials and tribulations of the tragic deaths of his children to the traumas of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, John Kennedy Jr. and Caroline Kennedy. Through the scandals and affairs you will come to glean the insights of a soul through the prediction of astrology. From beginning to end of this compilation of essential tools for prediction, you will come to appreciate the power and insights of astrology. With this surfaces the sense of destiny and free will. Coming back full circle to November 1963 arises the age-old question concerning fate and free will. Could this be avoided with information ahead of time? What if President Kennedy listened to Jeane Dixon? This has haunted Dallas astrologer Joni Patry her entire life as she delved into understanding the cyclic process of humankind and the Universe through the profound study of astrology.
