This is the episode I've eagerly awaited since my very first episode, 'What is Vedic Astrology?' When I started The Vedic Astrology Podcast four years ago, I knew I needed to address this fundamental question, but I also realized that doing so effectively would require more than my own understanding. Today, I am thrilled to present this long-anticipated episode. I am joined by Sachin Sharma to delve deeply into the essence of Jyotish, often translated as Vedic Astrology. Sachin and I explore the unique philosophy of Jyotish, grounding our discussion in Sutra 3:14 from the Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra. This episode addresses key differences between Jyotish and other forms of astrology, the richness and symbolism embedded in Jyotish, and the effects of colonization on its interpretation. Sachin shares profound insights into the deeper purpose of Jyotish, including its relation to the concept of Atman and its applicability to personal growth, spirituality, and practical life areas such as relationships, career, and health. Additionally, we discuss the integration of Jyotish with other related disciplines like yoga, Ayurveda, and Samkhya, highlighting that these fields form a cohesive study of life's profound truths. Learn the true potential and gift Jyotish offers, and discover how this ancient practice can serve as a psychoanalytic and therapeutic tool. Sachin's ongoing Jyotish Project aims to re-educate and bring greater clarity to this rich and intricate discipline, making it accessible for both personal and professional practices. Join us in this enlightening conversation and find out how you can engage with Sachin's work and further explore the transformative power of Jyotish. Don't miss out! (Apologies that there are no chapter markers, it was one of those integrated conversations that didn’t have discreet topics :)

Welcome to this episode of The Vedic Astrology Podcast, recorded amidst the vibrant and bustling ambiance of IKEA (more about that later :) where we delve into the significance of Sagittarius, the third Fire sign, that emboldens us to teach and share wisdom gained during the astrological journey from Aries through Scorpio. The episode explores the key traits of Sagittarius, including its dual nature, archetype and associated body-part and its role in the larger astrological chart. We also examine how the Sun's transit impacts each Ascendant, offering reflection questions for deeper personal insights. The episode emphasizes the importance of inspiration and vision in overcoming obstacles as we approach the Saturn signs of Capricorn and Aquarius. 

N.B. The audio quality reflects where the episode was recorded. The extra-Fire combination of Sun in Sagittarius - and maybe even Mars in Leo - are certainly tempering 'my metal' to refine my brittleness this Solar Month! So rather than reaching breaking point, I'm flowing and stretching in new ways - hence the unusual recording location and the late publication date. To support the compromised audio quality, please remember there is a transcript and you can watch this episode on YouTube with subtitles :) https://youtu.be/qDU3GEzUZRs
