Sizing Up the Elections 2008
Namaste Friends & Jyotish Enthusiasts,
The elections 2008... everyone's thinking about it. Hoping and praying for their candidate to win and a positive change for the US and the world. Boy do we need it.

So I did a last minute sizing up of the elections, astrologically speaking, and came up with my assessment of the situation. The polls are lined up for Obama, but are the stars lined up for the political star? Or are we looking at a another last minute upset by the republicans, and John McCain? There has been a lot of speculation by astrologers East and West about the election this year.

After a birth certificate came out for McCain recently, I got over my reluctance to write something. Admittedly, I'm not very even-minded about this because I want Barack Obama to win so much. Nevertheless, here it is.

New Astro-Profile - The Dashamsha Chart: The 10th Part of Glory
Without the use of divisional charts Jyotish is a "crude affair and blunt instrument" my teacher says. This article teaches how to refine our interpretive skill through the use of the Dashamsha chart, the key division for career success. It uses quotes from classic texts and examples to show what yogas and planetary positions bring success. It also shows detailed examples of how to use the dashamsha for birth time rectification.

By analyzing the charts of Mark Hammil (Luke Skywalker), Cary Grant, Wilt Chamberlain, Richard Bach, Meryl Streep, Gerald Ford, George Lucas, Lord Byron, Herman Hesse and many others the principles of using the Dashamsha chart come alive.

This article also has a fascinating section on the Catholic miracle worker Padre Pio, and shows how the dashamsha and vimshamsha charts clearly reveal his spiritual powers.

New Lesson 11: Aspects (Drishtis) and Conjunctions
Lesson 11 of the online course is now available and is another well researched and thorough lesson. It's 45 pages of exploration into how to understand the effects of aspects and conjunctions, which can make or break the accuracy of an interpretation. By using quotes from classic texts, outlining key principles and showing many example charts of well-known individuals you will hone your interpretive skill.

Recent feedback about Lesson 11:

"I have read Lesson 11 and it is very good, as all your lessons are. I particularly liked the contrast you drew between Gandhi's and Hitler's charts although they have the same ascendant and similar influences. Am eagerly awaiting Lesson 12!"
