The Real Secret of Vedic Astrology

~ Nakshatra ~

Article by guest writer, Acharya Bharat

In the Vedic (Hindu) system of Astrology, known in Sanskrit as Jyotish, the ! constellations and

not the " star#signs are the key to understanding celestial influences on our $lanet% &hese !

constellations are known as the ! 'akshatras, which are to * light years away from earth%

Based on a $erson+s moon 'akshatra at the time of birth, Jyotish offers a most $owerful$redictie techni-ue com$ared to other forms of astrology%

&he term .'akshatra,. when broken down into its constituent $arts/ .naks. meaning .sky. and

.shetra. meaning .region., translate into .Sky 0a$%. Another translation is arried at using a

different dissection/ .naksha. is .ma$. and .tara. is .star. and so 'akshatra is .Star 0a$%. Bothmeanings clearly show that in the eyes of the ancient Vedic (Indian) seers the ! 'akshatras

(constellations) and not the " 1odiacal star#signs ma$ the sky%

It was the 0oon that ancient $eo$le first looked to for calculating time and connecting to thestars% +'akshatras+ is the name gien to the constellations or mansions of the 0oon, as the 0oon

resides in each of these constellations for one day%

&he system of constellations is ery ancient, dating back more than 2, years as they were

referred to in the oldest Veda (Hindu+s scri$ture)% &hese lunar mansions a$$ear in 3hinese andArabic astrology but hae not receied much attention in 4estern or 5uro$ean astrology% 5ach of

the ! 'akshatras consists of "6 and minutes of the 1odiac% 0ulti$lying this length by !e-uals the entire 1odiacal belt of 7 degrees%

&he 'akshatras are classified in arious ways, according to basic attribute, $rimary motiation(8ama # sensual desires9 Artha # material desires9 :harma # liing life based on s$iritual

$rinci$les9 0oksha # liberation from birth and death), se;, caste, s$ecies and so on% &hey are

$articularly reealed by their $residing deities, ruling $lanets and their symbolic form%

&he 'akshatra and the signs of the 1odiac both begin from the same $oint% &he beginning of thefirst 'akshatra, or constellation of Ashwini, the first 'akshatra, is the same as that of the first

sign of Aries% 5ach sign contains the combined influence of the 'akshatras falling with it%

3om$ared to the signs, the 'akshatra or 'akshatras $ossess a dee$er effect% &he signs are merely.a hea$, mass, or collection. of influences as their Sanskrit name suggests%

&he $lanets are the cosmic creatie $owers% 5ach $lanet radiates certain s$eciali1ed forces% &he

$lanets make their im$act on the 1odiacal field% &his s$eciali1ed circle diided by the signs and

'akshatras is the negatie or $assie field of influences, while the $lanets are the $ositie oractie fields% &he signs and 'akshatras create the necessary enironment, while the $lanets are

the $reci$itating forces%
