Jyotish, the science of ancient eastern astrology. Learn what your
astrological birth chart reveals about you. Taught by yogis to to
guide seekers on their spiritual journey, Jyotish can help you use
your unique gifts to overcome challenges and realize opportunities.
In
ancient India, the yogis were masters of the three sister sciences:
Yoga, Ayurveda (Healing), and Jyotish (Astrology). The yoga teachers
taught their students these three sciences together to aid in their
development and transformation. Ayurveda was used to help heal the physical
body while Jyotish (astrology) was used to guide the seeker on their
spiritual journey.
Jyotish
(literally meaning "the science of light") was especially
helpful in understanding each person's purpose in life, what they need
to work on and fulfill, when they needed to take the next step of their
journey, and what yogic techniques and methods would be especially useful
to practice based upon their karmas and destiny.
