ANALYSIS
Astrology is a science pertaining to the connection between the macrocosm and the microcosm. It speaks about how distant planets are connected to Earth, our human existence, and the entire creation. The ancient people found a connection between the planets and our body. For example, Saturn is connected to our teeth, and legs; the Sun is connected with our eyes. They also saw the planetary connection with different grains, birds and stones in the universe. For example, Saturn is connected with sesame seeds, crows and blue sapphires. In today’s age, we can find out how big the universe is with the help of powerful binoculars and telescopes. However, the ancient people knew about it at the time when there were no telescopes. All their calculations are in place and are accurate even today. Astrology as a science has not been explored very well in this modern age. Planetary positions give indications even if you cannot say for sure that it will happen. There is always an adrushya (invisible), i.e., an unknown influence. It is the Grace element that can change anything, anywhere, anytime. This is the reason why spirituality is a step higher than this knowledge. Spirituality is related to the Atma (soul) and astrology is related to planets. Astrology deals with observing the movements of the planets and making calculations related to the events that are yet to happen. The science of Vastu is related to direction, to space, while astrology is related to time. But the One beyond space and time is Mahadeva (Lord Shiva). That’s why for remedying any ill-effects of Vastu or any of the astrological movement of planets, just pray to Lord Shiva. He is the Lord of all planets and He can move them to favourable positions for your benefit. If you know that you are going through a particular phase, then you wait for time to pass. You turn spiritual, you do more meditation, and all the practices that uplift you, elevate you, pull you through that tough period. Astrology is knowledge, it is a necessary knowledge. However, there is something more remedial which is spiritual practice and devotion.
