Astrology is a scientific study of the apparent positions of celestial bodies. It is held to be useful in understanding, interpreting and organizing knowledge about reality and human existence on earth. Astrology as a subject is known as the science of the stars, which in detail explains our relationships, our place in the world and our contributions to it. It gives us insight into all aspects of life from our birth, changes which occur frequently in life, and finally death. A common belief held by astrologers is that the positions of certain celestial bodies either influence or correlate with human affairs. A modern explanation is that the cosmos especially the solar system acts as a single unit, so that any happening in any part of it inevitably is reflected in every other part. Predictive Astrology which predicts future trends and developments, is mainly based on two methods. Astrological Transits and Astrological Progressions. In astrological transits, the ongoing movements of the planets are interpreted for their significance as they transit through space and the horoscope. In astrological progressions, the horoscope is progressed forward in time according to a certain set of methods. Indian and Western astrology share a common ancestry and are essentially both are similar in content. Both traditions focus on the casting of an astrological chart /horoscope , a representation of celestial entities, for an event based on the position of the Sun, Moon, and planets at the moment of the events.

The Zodiac:

The Zodiac is believed to be a belt through which the sun, moon and planents move on their journey across the sky. There are twelve signs of Zodiac, which is considered to be particulary important . Both Western and Indian astrology use same zodiac. The common choice of twelve zodiac signs is understandable when it is considered that the interaction of the Sun and Moon was central to all forms of astrology. Thus, twelve cycles of the Moon - the months - coincided with one solar year, making 'twelve' a natural choice.

The Horoscope:

The horoscope is also divided into twelve different celestial houses which govern different areas of life. Calculations performed in casting a horoscope involve arithmetic and simple geometry which serve to locate the apparent position of heavenly bodies on desired dates and times based on astronomical tables.

There are four fundamental branches of astrolog:

Natal Astrology: The study of a person's chart related to his birth to gain information about the individual and his/her life experience.

Katarchic Astrology: It includes both event and electional astrology. Event Astrology tries to bring every thing about an event from the time at which it took place and electional astrology is used to determine the most auspecious moment to begin an enterprise or undertaking..

Horary Astrology: It is used to answer a specific question by studying the chart at the momoent when the question is posed.

Mundane or world astrology: It includes the application of astrology to the world events such as weather, earthquake, events, political turnmoil etc.
