It is often difficult to see our shortcomings or even our strengths unless someone else points them out to us. Astrology provides a keen glimpse into the areas of our life that are fully supported and that a client might be taking for granted. It can also show areas that are weak and need strengthening through remedial measures. A Vedic astrologer can ascertain the resources available to a client and give advice on making the most of what is available.
 Vedic astrology can pinpoint times to take actions that are supportive of particular endeavors.Timing is everything.
Imagine a client expressing interest in moving to another country and starting a new business. Success for that endeavor could be indicated in the chart, which is one reason the client had the inspiration in the first place, but the astrological influences do not indicate success for said venture until five years down the road. If an astrologer did not share this information with the client, she might make the move and start her business only to struggle needlessly for the next five years.
Human beings incarnate to fulfill four main purposes in life :
- Proper livelihood in accordance with our natural tendencies.
- The ability to procure resources for our needs.
- Enjoyment of our life circumstances.
-
Liberation of consciousness from the mistaken sense of individual isolated existence.
To fulfill these purposes we need knowledge. We need knowledge to recognize what our available resources are or how to find them. We need knowledge to understand our present capacities to achieve our goals. We need to know how the trends of life will unfold to make the best of supportive times and to prepare for the leaner times. Until we are aware and awake enough to be able to turn within and access this knowledge directly, Vedic astrology reveals what is hidden and provides the information needed. |
