Obama's Bold and Radical Reign 
Namaste Friends & Jyotish Enthusiasts,

Now that Obama has won the presidency, many astrologers are predicting how his four year term will go, with some predicting his assassination. When you look at the upcoming planetary periods it's easy to see why this prediction has been made, but before we jump to such a negative, frightening conclusion let's consider another perspective. Afterall, an astrologer needs to be able to see matters in a balanced way since every indication in a chart can have both a positive and a negative side.

New Astro-Profile - The Timing of Marriage and Relationship 
The most common question posed to astrologers is about relationship, especially "When will I meet Mr or Mrs Right?!" This Astro-Profile teaches how to accurately predict the timing for marriage and/or the beginning of a relationship. It outlines comprehensive steps for interpreting both the natal chart and the navamsha, and discusses the common dashas and sub periods for marriage.

It also shows how to cross check using multiple dasha systems.

Through the example charts of Sonny and Cher Bono, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Princess Diana and Prince Charles, Antonio Banderas, Tim Robbins, Susan Sarandon, Paramahansa Yogananda, Elizabeth Taylor, Paul Newman and many others the principles for timing marriage come alive. Over thirty example charts are used included many of ordinary people.

If you've ever had uncertainty about how to predict marriage this Astro-Profile will make it abundantly clear.

The Timing of Marriage and Relationship
New Online Course Lesson 12 
Lesson 12 of the online course is now available and is 82 pages - the longest lesson yet! It discusses the many factors the need to be considered for measuring a planet's strength - sign position, house position, aspects, divisional charts and many other factors like retrogression, planetary war, combustion, vargavimshopak bala, shad bala etc.

Understanding planetary strength is essential for interpretation because when a planet is strong it functions very differently than when it's weak. To be able to accurately determine a planet's strength therefore becomes a key skill that the astrologer needs - it can make or break a prediction.

This homework exercises are designed to help you practice assessing the strength of a planet using your own horoscope.
