Here is the history about Vedic Astrology. The Sanskrit word for Vedic Astrology, Jyotish translates as “the knowledge of light”. Jyotish is the one branch of the Vedas. The Vedas are the source teachings of Vedic Indian culture and of a universal spirituality. Their origin predates recorded history more then five thousand years ago. Even though the Vedas are thought to be the oldest books known to mankind, at least five thousands years old, but the "Vedic Sciences" are still practiced today.

The Vedas was cognized by Rishis (“sages”), who passed on their wisdom by telling it to the next generation. The oral tradition continues to this day, although a portion of the information is written down. The Vedas pose questions and answers to our ultimate concerns about life, birth and death, suffering and happiness, poverty and prosperity, consciousness, and the eternal. The Rishis developed six branches (Vedangas) to help us understand the Vedas. Vedic Astrology is one branch created to help us see our way through life with greater clarity. The eighteen sidhantas (documents ) had been written by famous Sages and Vedic astronomers e.g. Surya , Pitamaha , Vayas , Vashishta , Atri , Parashara , Kashyap , Narad , Garg , Mirich Manu , Angira, Lomash , Polish , Chayvan , Yvan , Bhrigu , Shonak , etc

Vedic Astrology is a system used to assess, forecast, and improve the quality of our lives. Vedic Astrologers interpret the observed conditions of the cosmos at the time of our birth to gain insight into the destiny-patterns influencing us. This information is viewed in context of what the birth-chart reveals about our daily lives. Astrology helps align our life course with the universal forces influencing us. Vedic Astrology help us live a more peaceful, conscious, and happy life. Our sense of self, relationships, education, career, finances, health, and spirituality are all intertwined with our likes and dislikes, and with our destiny-patterns.

Relationship compatibility is especially important, since all components of life involve relationships. Vedic Astrologers can analyze a person’s relations with family-of-origin, partner/spouse, children, in-laws, friends, neighbors, teachers, students, employers, employees, business and financial partners and endeavors, and so on.

A central assumption in Vedic Astrology is the existence of free will, without which all helping disciplines would be useless. Misuse of "karma". Karma is mistakenly viewed as our fate, something we are stuck with. From the perspective of the Vedas, karma means both action and reaction. These actions and experiences form our Karma. The word "Karma" simply means action. Destiny is not predetermined. It is determined by our actions, which we can change by using our free will.
