21.6 ASTROLOGY
21.6.1 Simple introduction to astrology
We will describe the Indian astrology as practiced in Northern India. If one wants to know about the future, an astrologer studies the horoscope (Kundali). A horoscope consists of 12 houses. Each house holds a zodiac sign.
When a Native (person) is born the sign present on Eastern Horizon is known as his/her ascendant sign. In casting the horoscope, this sign is placed in the first house. The remaining houses other signs in sequence.
Table 21.1 lists the Indian and English names of the planets.
