This is accomplished by first analyzing the history of Indian literature (Vedas, Upanishads, Puranas, etc.). Next, that history is traced to the 2 main Yogic texts, the Bhagavad Gita and the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. Then those those practices are woven together / cross referenced through the principles of Samkya philosphy (Gunas, elements, Kosha, Chakras, Karma). Only then are the essentials of Vedic astrology explored – Planets, Signs, Houses, Nakshatras, Aspects, Harmonic Charts and more. This book is also the basic manual for the American Academy of Vedic Art and Science Level I Certification Course.
