JAATAKA CHANDRIKA.

MOON-LIGHT OF VEDIC ASTROLOGY.

Original Author (Sanskrit) : Maharshi Parasara (3500 BC).

Part—1 (January—01—2011) Saturday

Ancient Hindu Astrology was 10 thousand years old; it is based on sound principles of advanced mathematics and astronomy; the Predictive astrology gained popularity and is in wide use. The famous book *JATAKA CHANDRIKA* was written six thousands years ago by great sage-astrologer Maharshi Parasara. This book is also called “Laghu Parasarai”. Maharshi Parasara was the father of Maharshi Veda Vyasa; he was the original author of Sri Maha Bharatha epic, Sri Bhagavtha purana and the four Vedas. Veda Vyasa was the grand father of Padavas and Kauravas of Maha Bharatha epic. Jataka Chandrika describes some important rules of predictive astrology. I give hereunder each Sanskrit verse and give its English meaning; I illustrate each verse with a suitable horoscope. This will be published in over 50 parts starting from the New Year day; Jan--1--2011
