I think this same question was answered a while ago on this list. Go to the sidereal site and do a search for " Jyotish. " If you don't find the information you want, then someone here will try to give you some details. Both Western sidereal and Jyotish use the sidereal zodiac, but the ayanamsa is different. The Western sidereal positions of the planets are about a degree less than the main ayanamsas (Lahiri and Krishnamaurti) used in Jyotish. (Jyotish was never 'Vedic,' so I don't use that term.) >And also, can anyone find any halfway decent information about chiron >aspects and transits on the web? Did you try a web search for Chiron? I don't use Chiron and I don't know any sidereal or Jyotish astrologers who use it either. Sincerely, Therese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 There is a website....www.stariq.com. Check that out.....it may help you....Lori call me sheep <Sheeptribe1 wrote: Greetings all. I just joined the group today and i've been enjoying reading some of the informative posts. I'm an amateur (at present) astrologer from Chicago. I've been studying astrology since i was 16 (that's 7 years now) but just began reading sidereally about last feb. It has completely changed the way i read! Quite simply, it's accurate. I think it's a shame how many very gifted practitioners are still operating under a fundementally flawed system. It's really a testament to them that they get anything right at all. Anyway, i do have a couple questions to pose. First, how does western sidereal astrology compare to jyotish? I know vedic astrology uses the sideral scope as well, but are there differences in interpretation and application? And also, can anyone find any halfway decent information about chiron aspects and transits on the web? Have a blessed day everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 2, 2007 Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 Dear distant friends and the distinguished members, My name is Hikaru, and I am very glad to have joined the group. I am very new to the world of Jyotish, and I humbly would like to share my thoughts and my chart Information for the use for the futhering of the study of Jotish. I have had the fortune of my chart being rectified by Sanjay JI last year. There are three things prominent in my chart: 1. I am in the Shani mahadasha 2. I am about to enter Sade Sati beginning on July 15, 2007 3. (According to Sanjay Ji and Visti Ji)I have Kala Amrita Yoga. I hope you all would be so kind to be patient with me for sharing my thoughts, etc. (I am sure that you can tell from my chart that my mind wanders in the pool of imagination.) I have been in the world of arts (visual/music/writing/dancing) all my life. So, as a visual artist who loves mythology, I tend to visualize the scene or the theme. When I've learned about K/A Yoga, the first thing I visualized was the severed head and the body of Rahu/Ketu. Knowing that these two are the two nodes, therefore they are naturally separated, I imagined what would it be like for them to be restored back to its original form just as King Vikrami's hands and feet are restored. Then I remembered about the 'astronomical' divisions of the universe having 13 constellations instead of the 12. Interesting enough, my birthday falls on December 4th, right in the middle of this '13'th constellation, Ophiuchus-Aesculapius, the serpent holder. Now, Aesculapius is a Greek god of Healing. Can this constellation and /or the time period be the clue to the healing of Kala Sarpa / Kala Amrita Yoga (by healing/holding the severed bodies) ? Also, Aesculapius was killed by Zeus/Jupiter for resurrecting the dead. This also reminded me of the power of Shukra, Sanjivini Vidya (of Lord Shiva), that which resurrected the dead Asuras. Shukra is the Lord of Tula (which happens to be my Ascendant). According to Visti Ji, one of the nature of Tula is to bring the light to the darkness. Can either Tula and/or Shukra nature be the clue to the healing of KA/KS Yoga by bringing the light? One last image is that Ophiuchus is stepping on the scorpion, Vrischik. This image of a being holding the serpent stepping on the earth bound scorpion, lead me to the image of the Churning of the Divine Milk, when I replaced the image of man to the mountain and a scorpion to Kurma, the divine turtle. I have no idea, from pure Jyotish point of view, if this sort of imagination makes any sense or be benefit to healing, but I wanted to share the image with all of you. Since I have not yet entered the Sade Sati, I would like to offer this 7.5 years of my Sade Sati experience for the benefit of the Jyotish studies of the effects of Sade Sati, so that other people who share the challeges and trials of Sade Sati can be eased and healed. In other words, I welcome any questions and thoughts regarding my life situation, my mind, my health, my feeling, etc. during this period(from the day one). Thank you so much for your patience with me. I trust that the Divine shall be gracious to all of us. Here are my birth data: December 4th, 1961 04:09:40 JST(rectified time) Odawara, Japan 139E10'00 35N15'00 May you all be blessed! Sicerely, Hikaru Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
