Free Indian Astrology: Zodiac Signs, Compatibility, Horoscopes And Vedic Astrology

By:

Published: October 4, 2007

Each culture has their own set of customs and beliefs, and astrology is no different. Indian astrology is comparable to American astrology in that they both have zodiac signs that signify birthdays and can be read as horoscopes. This system of Indian astrology is also known as vedic astrology. Vedic astrology stems from East India several thousand years ago. The term is derived from the most ancient scriptures in India, Vedas, which translates into a Sanskrit word for "knowledge."

Indian astrology and American astrology both use zodiac signs to determine people's horoscopes. The difference is that western astrology incorporates more psychological and behavioral elements, whereas Indian astrology focuses on forecasting. The point of vedic astrology is to avoid problems in the future, and by no means is intended to be fatalistic. It is meant to be used as a premonition of things that will happen if a person chooses to stay on the same path.

Other differences between Indian astrology and western astrology is that the former is star-based and the latter is season or tropical-based. Vedic astrology stays rooted with the star formations, and it is constantly adjusted to for the precession of the earth, or back-slipping. Western astrology is formatted to go with the passing of the seasons. Just as western astrologers exist to predict horoscopes, vedic astrologers take their job very seriously and are trained in the art of their astrology.

Indian astrology covers all the things that western astrology does in predicting the future: love, career, family, finance. Everyone wants to know whether or not they will meet their soul mate and live in a gorgeous manner with their beautiful children. For this reason, many websites are available to predict a new couple's compatibility, the chance for a successful purchase that day, a person's health, and so forth. Vedic astrologers will even consult with a customer one on one to ask any questions they have, for a fee. One Indian astrology website charges $12 for a personal consultation.

Of course, there are free horoscopes given on many websites. They start charging when customers want a more detailed account of their future or medical reports, compatibility reports or remedies. The prices will vary according to company ($10-$20 for some reports) but typically all Indian astrology horoscopes are free. Some sites may require a person become a member, but that is not always the case.

Want to find out whether or not a new job is on the horizon? Perhaps a baby in the future? Instead of consulting the traditional horoscopes found in the glossy pages of a magazine, look up a site that specializes in Indian astrology. An Indian astrology report is just as good as any other, with the added benefit of eluding people to possible caveats in the near future. Who knows, they may be able to avoid running into an ex!
