Do we need Astrology? Why Astrology? Beyond Astrology?

Please note that this post is NOT at all intended to hurt/blame any person or their profession.  These are purely my thoughts only.  May be right or wrong!!!

Today’s Astrology!!!

Physical comfort/body survival is the highest thought today!
Some of us (especially new generation) see Astrology as a pseudoscience, because of many misleading information, vast misuse and misguidance, lot of immature remedial measures coupled with wrong expectations, never ending desire, craving for money, no submission towards dharma (righteousness)/spirituality etc.  Astrology has evolved over centuries and now paved a way to a distorted image having different perceptions.  We know what it is today!!!

PART - 1: Followers / Believers of Astrology

(a) Many of us mostly travel through the road just opposite to the road which leads to our goal and blame the planets (free-will mostly matters!). For example, we will not give up alcohol/drugs, yet we expect good physical health and disease-free body.  We do not have a healthy daily routine, but we badly expect strong and healthy mind at all times.
(b) Some think that, Astrologer is a multi-dynamic person who has mastered every dimensions of Jyotisha Sastra, Tantra Sastra, Mantra Sastra, Vaidika Kriyas, Tantric Kriyas, Gemology, Vasthu, Yantra/mantra healing, Palmistry and what not.
(c) Some think there are remedial measures for everything in this world; as they don’t know about Dridha (fixed), Dridha-Adridha (fixed-unfixed) and Adridha (unfixed) Karmas and its results.
(d) We creates and invites all troubles through our own bad karma thinking that some remedies can be done to make the fruits (results) good, as we don’t believe “as you sow so shall you reap” and “prevention is better than cure”.
(e) Most of us are not ready to grow the trees (action); but we expect the fruits (results) alone.
(f) Some expects swift/faster results somehow through remedial measures.      
(g) Most of us can’t invest time and energy in a healthy daily routine, charity works, prayers, meditation, yoga, spiritual activities for our own benefits. We simply spend all the time to earn money/material benefits but need to eliminate bad karmic fruits.
(h) Some people see Astrology through a specific window of their own experiences or knowledge in different fields and/or information gained through different sources like family, social media, friends, magazines, newspaper etc.
(i) Yet, some consults Astrologer to give it a shot or try when they do not see the results despite their hard work in their business.
(j) Some of us badly wanted to hear from an Astrologer (through horoscope) that our failure in life is because of ‘Black Magic’ done by someone.
(k) And so on…

PART - 2: Pretending to be ‘Astrologer’ (fake/fraud) 
(Just to mention - Don’t forget there are fake/frauds in every profession)

(a) I am the mediator between you and God.
(b) I am the only qualified and certified Astrologer, having learned and understood all principles of Jyoti Sastra.
(c) Apart from Jyoti Sastra, I know Vasthu, Gemology, Palmistry, Tantra Sastra, Mantra Sastra, Tantric kriyas, Vaidika kriyas, Yantra/mantra healing and you name it.
(d) I know all Dharma Sastras and I am the ultimate guide for all your ‘customs/ritual/rites’ related queries.
(e) Come to me, I will change your future as it is depending on your horoscope alone and I know how to alter it.
(f) I will destroy all your ‘Graha Doshas’ and malefic planetary implications in your horoscope.
(g) I will quote “Black Magic” as the reason for your failures so that you are not blamed and you can think you are doing good work (karma).
(h) I have answers for all your questions.  Even if you ask wrong questions, none will be left unanswered because I need your instant satisfaction.
(i) I will remove any dosha/sapa (bad karmic debts) instantaneously. Devatas will work according to my Sankalpam; hence I offer money back guarantee!
(j) I will use all Astro related technical terminologies (you may not understand it the way it is to be understood) to show how strong is your negativity and to substantiate my recommendations for many rituals.
(k) And so on…

PART - 3: Thought process – Beyond Astrology

(a) Karma is the ultimate deciding factor of the fruits.  Karma is one’s free-will.  Through Astrology, we get to know about good and bad Karmic fruits which are being ready to enjoy in this birth (time factor).  This is the fundamental principle of Astrology (horoscope).
(b) There is no remedy for some fixed karmic fruits; we are bound to undergo through the phase.  This is absolutely due to our own intense bad karma in the past.
(c) There are remedies for certain karmas; which has to be understood from a pious Astrologer.
(d) There are so many incredible things which we can do ourselves for a successful and joyful life, with least intervention of Astrologers.  This is more credible than anything else and no one will fall as pray for frauds.
(e) There are some situations where we need to consult with the right person.  How to find him?  Biggest challenge today!  At least we need a knowledgeable person who has ‘good intention’ to help us.
(f) There are some pre-requisites and duties of an Astrologer: -
i. Guru Bhakti (devotion to Guru)
ii. Humbleness
iii. Righteousness
iv. Truthful
v. Veda Adhyayanam (one should learn Vedas)
vi. Thorough knowledge of Astronomy/Ganitam (mathematical calculations), Samhita and Hora (many)
vii. Graha Yajanam (who does prayers to Graha Devatas with full devotion)
viii. Waking up early in the morning (during Braahma Muhurtam)
ix. Do Sandhyavandanam (Nitya karma anushtanam)
x. Do other Mantra Japam, as appropriate
xi. Panchanga Ganitam (daily ephemeris calculation)

Endless list, isn’t? There are many Astrologers with above qualities, but difficult to find.  There is no alternative other than begetting the right guide at right time.

The more you become spiritual, lesser intervention of Astrology needed.  

To conclude, you cannot destroy your past, but can create your future!
