Posted by Astrologer Arjun Swami on January 31st, 2020

With the help of this article, we will look at some of important aspects of both Indian as well as Western astrology for individuals who are having a hard time on deciding the best out of the two. Similar features of both of them are mentioned in this post. To be honest, you cannot say which one is better than the other, because here right and wrong are relative, and if you are asking about the accuracy of the two sciences, sometimes one works better than the other, other times, it is otherwise. Having said that, let’s jump into the article without wasting anymore time.

INDIAN ASTROLOGY

The technique and procedures used to determine the placement of planets and their corresponding effects is the driving force of several systems. The ancient astrological sages in India came up with some of the most innovative solutions to this confusing problem of movement of different bodies and the unreliable frame of reference by fixing a standard zodiac. This system was popularized by the Indian astrologers in Atlanta, and other location as the Nirayana system. In this particular system, the zodiac or celestial circle is placed in a fixed position. The Indian system makes use of mathematical models and the results can also be interpolated as well as calculated and analyzed with the desired level of expertise of the astrologer.

WESTERN ASTROLOGY

Western astrology, also known as Sayana (Moving zodiac) system, makes calculations and predictions according to the present position of the stellar system. This comes with certain types of limitations because the present scientific world, where we live in, there is no proven way of defining the exact position of every moving celestial zodiac body. The distinction between Sayana longitudes and Nirayana longitudes of planets is referred to as Ayanamsa (precision in English). Sayana system can be regarded as a rudimentary first order approximation. Nirayana system, on the other hand, is an innovative way to deal with the complex situation of the celestial bodies. The techniques used in Sayana system are not progressively accurate in doing the right predictions.

COMMON FEATURES

When we compare the both the astrological systems, we found that there are numerous general principles found in both the systems, which includes ownership of houses, debilitation, exaltation, specific planetary features and the 12 aspects of human life.

We hope this article helped you to understand the difference between the two different astrological systems. Now, you should consider taking services of spiritual healing in Atlanta and other astrological services to improve your life.
