It is phenomenal that the rotation of planets and their position in the universe can determine human life. When a horoscope is created based on cosmic factors, it is almost like a series of puzzles that needs to be decoded and solved – one for every individual.

The birth chart gives us a map of life that helps us understand, introspect and discover who we really are. This gives us the control over how we go through life’s ups and downs. The cycle of life, with its winding twisty roads from childhood to adulthood, through career and business, health and wellness, relationships and finances is ever-changing. When we should maximise our potential and when should we be conservative and cautious in our approach? A birth chart can guide us through all these areas and queries.

Understanding the nuances of interconnectedness with the universe, the concepts of balance and harmony, spiritual inclination and growth, reciprocating and responding, traditions and their teachings, all form a great chess board together. We can play the game and checkmate the fault in our stars if we have the right tools to predict.

The facts and science of astrology, astro-physics and the cosmos have more or less continued to remain the same, even as data and findings about space beyond our planet keep evolving. The convergence and conjunction of Bṛihat Parāśara Horā Sastra and modern astrology is quite a revelation. There are several overlaps in what was written and discovered by the sages, with the modern systems of astrology.

For millennia now, Bṛihat Parāśara Horā Sāstra has provided the concepts and working of the celestial world, the charts and tools for calculation, reading and interpretation techniques, problem statements, solutions and correction mechanisms in every aspect of the functionality of human beings and the earth. This spans the past, present and future.

These sastras can be applied to various aspects of contemporary life, offering guidance and perspective in navigating the complexities of modern existence.

FAQs

Is the Bṛihat Parāśara Horā Sāstra always accurate?

One has to always keep in mind various aspects that influence the accuracy of predictions. Different astrological systems coexist, such as the Vedic, Western, Greek and Chines, each with their own specific methods of interpretation. This results in contextual and cultural factors influencing predictions. Specific and personal customised readings are relatively closer to being precise than general predictions. The use of tools such as the Dasha systems, transits, progression and regression analysis improve the correctness of prophecies.

How much does an astrologer’s expertise matter in reading the Bṛihat Parāśara Horā Sāstra?

An astrologers’ expertise and experience matter, especially since decoding this ancient text is a nuanced skill that takes time and patience to hone. However, personal beliefs can also be influencers and predicting the exact timing and nature of events can be a bit too much to expect.

Does free will impact outcome?

In astrology, human free will plays a significant role. Even after considering this sacred text, individuals can make choices that alter predicted outcomes. Several key aspects from this ancient text can be considered along the way in your predictive journey, but how things turn out eventually depends on your own decisions and choices.
