Why astrology is important
It reveals your karmic patterns and timing (dashas) so you can make wiser choices and
apply remedies.
Why astrology is not real
Skeptics note it isn’t lab-tested; Jyotish is a traditional timing science judged by results, not
experiments.
Why astrology is real
For millennia, accurate birth-time charts have correlated with life themes and cycles
observed across cultures.
Why astrology is a sin
In Sanatana Dharma, Jyotish is a Vedanga (a sacred limb of the Veda)—ethical guidance,
not sin.
Why astrology is wrong
Errors usually come from incorrect birth time, using the wrong zodiac, or reading without
dashas/divisional charts.
Why astrology is accurate
With precise birth time and skilled use of dashas, transits, and varga charts, timing can be
very specific.
Astrology who made it
No single inventor; Indian sages such as Parāśara, Jaimini, and Varāhamihira codified it.
Astrology who created it
It evolved from ancient Vedic wisdom and was systematised by rishis over centuries.
Astrology who invented it
It was not “invented” by one person—handed down through lineages and classical texts.
Astrology who studies
A Jyotishi (Vedic astrologer) trains in scriptures, dashas, transits, yogas, and remedial
measures.
