My Journey into the World of Astrology
My fascination with astrology began unexpectedly when I was just six years old. In 2001, my parents discussed a ‘naadi’ prediction, an ancient form of Indian astrology. This prediction foretold a challenging period for my father during his ‘Kethu dasa’.
This sparked my curiosity about astrology. How could someone predict a person’s life and offer solutions? Later, when I was 8, I accompanied my family to an astrologer, who offered remedies and made predictions about my future, including my career path and even my marriage life! While I was skeptical, his accurate prediction about my engineering studies, career and marriage left a lasting impression.
Challenges and New Discoveries
Despite the astrologer’s advice, my family faced many difficulties. My father lost his job, suffered injuries, and struggled a lot.
During this time, I developed a habit of reading the Tamil newspaper ‘Dina Thanthi’. I was particularly drawn to the ‘Jeevanadi’ column by author Hanumathdasan, who shared his experiences with ‘Agasthiar Jeevanadi’. I questioned the logic behind these predictions but continued reading, driven by a desire to understand. This sparked an interest in Sage Agasthiar and the world of naadi astrology.
Exploring Astrology
In 2010, I came across an astrology book for beginners. This book provided me with basic knowledge and helped me understand how astrologers make predictions. I began practicing by making predictions for my family members, marking the start of my journey into astrology.
Later, I was deeply influenced by Sivadasan Ravi’s books. His work introduced me to different perspectives and methodologies in astrology. A strong believer in karma, I felt that astrology shouldn’t be a means to earn money. I limited my practice to family, friends, and neighbors.
My Goals and This Website
Over the years, my knowledge and understanding of astrology have grown. I continue to learn and research new methodologies in my free time. I am driven by a desire to explore the scientific basis of astrology and to utilize its potential for improving human lives. This website is an extension of that passion, a platform where I aim to share my insights and explore the fascinating world of astrology.
