What is Indian Astrology? Indian Astrology also called as Vedic Astrology or Jyotisha has its deep roots in the Vedas which were written around 1500 B.C. The ancient Indians or the Hindus were the original masters of Astrology. They had thorough knowledge of astronomy and many rituals and religious rites were related to the position of planets and their motions.The earliest astronomical works of the Indians such as Surya Siddanta and Vedanga Jyothisha are more then five thousand years old.The Hindu sages or rishis as they were called had much knowledge on the stellar or planetary universe before Western Astronomers like Kepler, Copernicus and Galilio were born.

Moon in Indian Vedic Astrology

Did you know that Moon or Chandra is given an important consideration in Indian Vedic Astrology terms and predictions. The Moons apparent path intersects the ecliptic obliquely at two points called the nodes. The point where the Moon crosses the ecliptic from south to north is called the ascending node or Rahu, where it crosses the ecliptic from north to south is called descending node or Ketu. These two points are 180 degrees apart and their movement is constantly retrograde, that is there are always moving against the normal direction of movement of planets. Rahu and Ketu are given special status and considered as planets in Indian astrology. Rahu and Ketu take approximately eighteen years and ten days to complete one round of the zodiac.
