Ayanamsa ~ Vedic Astrology - Discussions, questions

Aren Levi use Lahiri, it is the most used one out there - which will help you watching some videos on youtube of vedic astrologers.

OS* » Aren Levi There´s a few youtube astrologers I enjoy watching but Im considering a more serious approach. I ordered a couple books, just I received the first one yesterday.

Just a degree can make difference, my Mars can either be Anuradha or Jyeshtha depending on the Ayanamsa,

if I look at Dashas based on Citra (Lahire), the dates don´t really match anything significant. Vs Fagan-Bradley which is close to Galactic Center Ayanamsa, Doshas are scary accurate!

Aren Levi » OS* girl you might be onto something,

Dashas are more accurate for me too

OS* » Aren Levi Rasi will be somewhat the same but the other D charts and Doshas change quite significantly. . .

They are so many, which to choose ?!!

OS* lol the intro of this video

Aren Levi » OS* Only thing that changed for me was Venus in D9 and some degrees but not too much.
Also dasha periods.
Fagan-Bradley seem really accurate.
Time will show how much.

Datta108 Namaste use whatever gives you the best results, my spiritual/astrology teacher spent years ascertaining the most accurate Ayanamsha but I now realize it´s not the Ayanamsha or the house system or even if it´s western or vedic, it´s the astrologers expertise, experience and skill that is most important, not the tool he uses.

Plus when I asked him directly what was the key to making consistently accurate predictions for others he always said "Devotion to God ",not Ayanamsha´s or whole house systems/ placidus or whatever the case may be...

That being said he mostly used Kp old Ayanamsha and sometimes Lahiri,but lahiri was always a couple weeks off it seemed and we didn´t use it again for my chart.
Also sometimes I try moving birth times a couple of minutes if they seem too rounded off,like 9:00 or 12:15,this helps getting accurate Dasa/bhukti/antardasa start times...


Of course he advised constant reading of astrological books so, as he said,"Your mind will be like a computer when looking at a chart" and one should know all the rudiments thoroughly. But to boldly predict future trends and events accuratly the astrologer needs something more,Divine intuition/Siddhi´s ,which only come to those who are following a spiritual God conscious life and most importantly, God´s grace.

Good luck in your practice and happy n healthy 2022 to you!!!🙏🕉🌻

OS* » Datta108 Thank you Datta, same to you!

and thank you for this response, I think it´s also what KRS was trying to convey in the video I posted.

I appreciate you sharing your thoughts, advice :)

LotusStar » OS* Sorry I have no idea but wanted to say thanks for posting the video. It was very interesting, and funny :D! And the part where he says we have maybe 5% free will... Wow.

When you hear about vedic astrologers making super accurate predictions... it definitely makes you wonder.

Uttarafiyaguni Fagan Bradley did nothing for me, shifts my Moon nakshatra to a different one that doesn´t even match my features or personality, and I noticed it with other folks as well so I cast that aside when I was like 3 months into using Vedic Astrology.

Most Vedic Sidereal astrologers usually talk about Lahiri, True Chitra and True Pushya ayanamshas, but I´ve personally seen the most results with the Lahiri and True Chitra.

I´m especially curious about seeing people explain why they prefer True Pushya. I also happened to be fascinated with the Galactic Centre ayanamsha, but yeah idk haven´t seen many people talk favorably of it yet, I´ve only gotten a feel of it with the charts of people I personally knew.

Datta108 » OS* You´re very welcome anytime!!!🙏

OS* » Uttarafiyaguni Hi!
yeah, Im really not sure yet. I might change my mind like you in a few months,

I feel like Lahiri and Chitra (0deg Libra) are almost the same. nothing really changes in my chart and the delineation is about 23´34 vs 23´35. Could it be that Lahiri is based on Chitra star ?

Galactic Center or True Revati really changes things quite a bit compared to most of them being around 23 to 24 degrees.


anyways, Thanks for your comment about this, I´ll need to look into True Pushya, too :)

OS* » LotusStar haha you´re welcome! and yes definitely makes you wonder :)

rohini moon » OS* Good question! Shows you have a keen eye

I personally use Lahiri, most accurate for me...

But yeah, like datta said, use your own discretion, what you think works best for your life.. enjoy your new books!

OS* » rohini moon Thank you Rohini !! :)

and yeah I have a lot of Virgo lol what can I say🤷‍♀️
