Astrology
ज्योतिष
Jyotish is studied here the way it is taught in Ujjain: calculation first, interpretation second, and every claim tied to its source.
Introduction
Jyotish begins with Siddhant: the mathematics of where the planets are and how time is reckoned. Interpretation comes after the calculation, never instead of it.

Questions
Do I need to believe in astrology to learn it?
No. You start with Siddhant Jyotish, the calculation. You'll compute real planetary positions and see for yourself how the system works. What you believe after that is yours to decide.
Is astrology a science?
The astronomy is: calculating planetary positions, eclipses and calendars is mathematics you can check. The interpretive side is a tradition, and it is taught as one.
Can a reading guarantee an outcome?
No. A reading explains what the chart shows according to the tradition. It is not a medical, legal or financial assessment.
