The authoritative primer to Jyotish, or Vedic Astrology, covering the planets, signs, houses, myths and interpretations

An authoritative primer to Jyotish, or Vedic Astrology, this book draws on the author's extensive study of the tradition. Andrew Mason explains in detail the practical applications of Jyotish, introduces the planets, signs and houses, as well as the many rich and highly entertaining mythologies of the system with an explanation of how to interpret them. He also covers Vedic Astrology's sister science, Ayurveda, and describes how they interact to provide insight into celestial timing, sustained health and general wellbeing. With sample charts that show the applications throughout, the book provides a complete an accessible resource on Jyotish for students of Indian astrology and Ayurveda practitioners. It will also be of interest to anyone with a passion for astrology.

"Andrew gives invaluable advice on the various remedies that can be found in the system to support a more positive experience of life, health, profession, relationships and spiritual journey. This I found to be very unique as most books that I have read in this area tend to present the challenging aspects of how your planets are placed at that time and how you are best to sit and ride the wave until you come to a better junction. It is refreshing to read a new and encouraging view point." - Tri-Dosha
