INSIGHT

Chart Represents The Actual Sky

  • A Vedic birth chart is a snapshot of the sky at your birth and uses grahas and zodiac numbers, not houses.
  • The Ascendant is the eastern horizon and shows the body and personality while numbers label the signs.
ADVICE

Use A Layered Learning Path

  • Learn astrology with a nesting-doll system: start with grahas, then signs, then nakshatras.
  • Avoid memorizing everything at once and build depth progressively.
ADVICE

Start With The Big Three

  • Start readings with the Big Three: Ascendant, Moon, and Sun and use keyword snapshots for each.
  • Combine ascendant keyword plus sign keyword to form a simple baseline interpretation.
