Everybody is curious to know about their future. There are many methods of divination available to satiate this curiosity. These methods are popular not only in India, but other parts of the world as well. Each method has its own procedures and characteristics. Let us talk about some of these methods.


Vedic Astrology

Vedic Astrology is one of the main systems of Indian Astrology. It is a part of Vedas and is recognized as the Eyes of the Vedas. It predicts future on the basis of the birth-chart.


  • To predict future according to this method the information of the birth-time, place and date are very important.

  • On the basis of vedic astrology a lot about the past, present & future can be determined.

  • Their influence can be seen on karma & destiny. In the event of any matter, yogas play an important role in kundali and the dasha & antardasha of planets is also important.

  • Very often, good yogas are formed in a kundali and planets are also strong but still a person might not get auspicious results because planet is weak in varg kundali, that’s why varg kundalis holds great importance in vedic astrology.

  • Varg kundalis also hold great importance in birth horoscope. If a planet is strong in birth horoscope and weak in varg kundali, then in this situation auspicious results cannot be achieved.

  • With the help of varg kundali, ascendant and its lord, related house and its lord are analyzed.

For example:

For children saptansh kundli is analyzed that’s why ascendant, it’s lord, fifth house and fifth house lord are analyzed. In birth horoscope the situation of fifth house lord can be seen in the seventh house lord, then only we can reach a conclusion.


Jaimini Astrology

Maharishi Parashara and Jaimini both belong to the same period. They introduced separate systems of astrology based on similar principles. Jaimini Astrology is very popular in South India and is quite similar to Vedic Astrology. However, it distinct rules and principles.


  • The Astrologers who predict future on the basis of Jaimini astrology too are quite successful in predicting the fortunes just like the Parashari astrologers.

  • Jaimini astrology has its own importance. Jaimini astrology is different from vedic astrology. Here, instead of the position of planets, dashayein of rashis is considered.

  • The scenario of all the twelve zodiac is considered. Out of all the planets, only seven planets are given importance.

  • The greatest importance of jaimini astrology is that, if a person doesn’t know the correct time of birth, then also decisions can be clearly made for them. Many dashayein has been explained in this study.

  • Just like jaimini char dasha, manduk dasha, jaimini sthir dasha, navansh dasha etc. Apart from these, there are many other dashayein but only these are used.

The most popular in Jaimini astrology is Jaimini char dasha. This dasha is more prevalent out of all the other dashas. Calculations in every dasha of Jaimini astrology is different. But one thing is similar that is all these dashas are of zodiac signs. In Jaimini astrology the dashayein are of zodiac signs. In this, the dashas of all twelve signs comes in a sequence. At the time of birth, the rashi which present in the ascendant, the mahadasha is also of the same sign. The way of determining the year of dasha is different.
