Introduction to Vedic Astrology/Jyotish
Friday September 4, 2026 9:00am - 10:15am CDT
Sheffield Room - 4th floor
Grahas (planets), Rasis (signs), Bhavas (houses) and Drishtis (aspects) will be discussed. Although Western Astrology shares these similar elements, Vedic Astrology also employs many other unique principles, such as Nakshatras (asterisms), Dasas (planetary time periods), Divisional (harmonic) charts, and Yogas (specific planetary combinations), all unique to Jyotish. Knowing and applying these concepts will refine your analytical and predictive abilities immensely.

There is enormous crossover and similarities between that system of Vedic astrology and the Hellenistic/Arabic systems. Different zodiacs and timing methods but many shared concepts.
