Vedic Astrology

Vedic astrology, also known as Jyotish Shastra, is an ancient Indian system of astrology based on the position of planets and stars at the time of a person’s birth. It originates from the Vedas, the oldest sacred texts of India, and follows the Sidereal Zodiac (fixed star system) rather than the Tropical Zodiac used in Western astrology.
