These days it is observed that even expert astrologiers fail to give accurate predictions for even correctly cast computerized birth charts (janma kundli) and to save face they claim that the birth chart was not correctly cast and this needs to be rectified. But this is not the reality.
Our first discussion will be on astrology’s calculative outlook which is solely based on logic. To be an expert in mathematical matters, only intelligence is required. The person may not have moral or spiritual quality as these are not prime qualities required in calculative astrology.
You might have seen or heard that nowadays there are many modern astrologers who in one hand smoke a cigarette and hold astrological book in their other hand. Some are so confident about their astrological skill that they take alcohol too. Now it will be simply a wastage of time, money and feelings if one expects to know about his or her future from these so called astrologers.
Although science helps in raising our standard of living, and also to discover new helpful devices, in astrology science is relevant in calculating simple patterns of planets, nakshatras, houses and yogas in a birth chart, beyond this it is the human intuition and the grasping of predictive astrology principles that will ascertain whether an astrologer will be able to correctly interpret a chart or not.
Excessive post mortem of mathematics is not very good for prediction and calculation in astrology. For example according to calculative astrology if a planet moves from the center of the bhava to the junctioin (Bhava sandhi), then it will give the results of the next bhava even though it is located in its own bhava in the kundali.
Suppose a native has Aries Ascendant and Jupiter is the significator of the 9th house, if the planet is in 8th house then it will provide result for both the 8th and 9th houses. The 9th house has Mula, Purvasadha and Uttrasadha nakshatras and Jupiter is stationed in the Jyestha nakshatra then how come the nakshatra will transit in to the Sagittarius sign or Jupiter will occupy the Sagittarius sign?
This is really a ridiculous and illogic thing to imagine. But some so called proficient astrologers are using this system and that’s why predictions go wrong even correct birth chart are handed to them.
