Vedic Student Notes

Welcome. These are my personal study notes on Jyotisha (often called Vedic astrology), written while I am still learning.

Please read

I am a student, not a teacher. These notes may contain mistakes or misunderstandings. Please check anything important against the classical texts and with qualified teachers. Corrections are always welcome, and pages are updated as my understanding improves.

How the notes are organised

• Foundations: the basic building blocks, starting with the twelve rashis (signs).
• More sections will be added gradually as I study: grahas (planets), bhavas (houses), nakshatras, dashas and so on.

Each page carries a short status note such as draft or needs review, so it is clear how settled it is.

A note on sources

The explanations here are in my own words. For the classical source I am studying, Brihat Parasara Hora Shastra, I give chapter references for you to look up rather than reproducing any translation.
