The Nakshatra Manual: A Guide To The Twenty-Seven Lunar Mansions Of Vedic Astrology

Vedic Astrology uses an entirely different zodiac from the Sun signs we all know of today. It uses a Lunar zodiac of twenty-seven divisions known as Nakshatras. This lunar zodiac was blended with the Solar zodiac into an amazing system of prediction. The only problem is that because the Nakshatras are so old, not much accurate information is still known about them when compared with the classic sun signs, and much has been embellished or diluted in its meaning. In this manual I have preserved and presented the most reliable information after having researched these Nakshatra concepts on thousands of charts over the years. I have presented these twenty-seven lunar mansions in a new light that is clearer and more accurate. I have curated information from all of the best sources of ancient India, including the Jyotish Shastras, the Vedas, Vedangas, and Puranas. You will learn the important mythos of each nakshatra but more importantly how to use this information in real time chart readings. You will not feel like you read another nakshatra book and learned some fancy sanskrit jargon, but did not learn how to apply the information to get better at astrology. This 400+ page book is a hands on practical manual that goes with an in-depth video course on Nakshatras currently featured on the Eye of the Veda Patreon. The manual got so big it had to become a stand alone reference work for those that have not taken the course. It is not necessary to take the video course that accompanies it.In each Nakshatras chapter I include the following 14 key points, elaborating on each, and explaining how to use them in chart reading:The ruling DeityThe Vedic sutra on it from Taittireya BrahmanaThe Nature (fixed and firm, light and swift, etc)The Dhatu/Mula/Jeeva category and how to use that informationThe Direction that it faces, and what that means for itIts SymbolThe Gana or Race it belongs to, either Deva, Manusha, or RakshasaThe Body part it rulesThe YoniThe Planetary LordThe ShaktiWhat Brihat Samhita says of itModern day keywords for itRemedial measures for afflicted planets there Read more
