Astrology is rubbish, says new research(To Tanvir)

[Guest guest]

Dear Tanvir,

 

although knowing your recommendation I have looked the link you gave and find

couple of things that I just cannot agree with.

I am studying both subjects (Vedic and Western astrology) for 8 years now and

still I am not 100 % convinced that vedic astrology is so much better as some

people talk .All I see is a great mass of rules that people even the most

wisest ones have some problem applying. Not saying against those rules but

their complexity can hardly be called practical and easy. Maybe some things are

just to changed over the course of time to call that what we call today

'astrology" be totaly pure in its origin.

Two of the excellent (my experience) predicting systems come from western

astrology and those are solar arcs and secondary progressions in addition to

transits.

The reason because I think that is that I can clearly explain (and predict) with

my limited knowledge things from my life with that system of prediction and fail

to explain some dasas and apply them to my life and lives of other people I

know. I saw many times the value of Vedic astrology but for me that wasn't a

factor to misjudge other systems of predictions. I am sure that I am not

supreme master of astrology or something like that BUT I am an open minded

student and did not start to learn with prejudice about any of these systems.

Now...about tropical zodiac. I always see more difference between someone who

has Moon on 29 degrees of some sign and someone who has Moon on 1 degree of

next sign in tropical zodiac than from their counterparts from sideral Zodiac.

People tend to judge about western astrology but never make any real effort to

look in all possibilities that it can give. I don't say this is better or that

is

better all I say is that I have seen western astrology working hundreds of times

and sometimes even better than vedic astrology. After all I am a member of this

group and enjoy in some of discussions taking place here but I am not glad to

read such judgements. On the other hand I agree that one big thing in Vedic

astrology are remedial measures although I think that most of the predictions

are just possibilities that need our effort to materialize so our behavior and

moral are the best remedial measure.

Re: [vedic astrology] Re: Astrology is rubbish, says new research ---> 4 Narasimha !!!

I second Mr Jay to request Narasimha Jee to react about the article. I am sorry

if I hurt anyone's feelings but that rubbish named 'Western astrology' is what

giving bad name to Astrology/Vedic Astrology. On the other hand it is also

unfortunate to see some strange, "one page astrology rules" are going fine as

new/successful method of astrology and that is also being called 'Vedic

Astrology' and creating a huge team of supporters/practitioners. People are

beaing cheated and losing faith on the pure Vedic Astrology. Now I think of

some ideas to make money and call it 'Vedic Astrology' and start selling

expensive products claiming they give all round happiness and make the world

heaven for the people whoever use them.

 

World is really getting better day by day... people asleep doing research on

consciousness, talking about things they know 'zero' about.

 

Few months ago I had met some people who say western astrology is more

scientific (Really?) than Vedic that is why I was forced by myself to write

something on this -

Hon'ble members who like Western Astrology please do not read it since it might

offend them to hear the bitter truth.
