Among many other cultures, the spread of Astrology on the whole has been prevalent and ever
dominant in India. A multitude of branches and their specific sciences are of immense interest in the
country and are followed by virtually everyone. The flexible nature of some of these sciences and their

Spiritual guidance one of the mainstays of the Indian world. The Indian astrology is also known as the
Jyotisa Vidya which is also known as the study of the Indian Astrology. The Indian Astrology has the
twelve different astrological signs with their names and each of the astrological sign has their own
significance.
There are many services that are on offer in the country. Each of them is varied in nature and purpose
but their basic resolve to understand and interpret the mental, physical and emotional problems of a
person in the present time or at any time in the future remains unshakeable. Among the many sciences,
some of the major ones include:
Horoscope Consulting- a detailed reading of the birth profile of the person to interpret his/her
lifestyle, problems and personalities and their effect on relationships and social platforms.
Compatibility in Marriage- Called as Kundali matching, this is a very predominant and commons

profiles of the two people in order to check their compatibility and the longevity and happiness
of the marriage.
Numerology- Use of numbers and mathematical systems which are pre designated with aspects
of personality to interpret the nature and state of mind of a person and any rectifications that
are necessary for the elimination of problems

Of the many services, these are the most predominant and highly revered by a major chunk the
country’s population. The daily horoscope is also another interesting aspect which is calculated as per
the Indian astrology methodology which is mostly based upon the ascendant which is called as the
‘lagna’ along with the soul sign factor. The Indian astrology has its own uniqueness as it is said to draw
the co-relations between the karma which is the collective deeds of an individual. It reads that a person
needs to have a good karma in order to lead a good life which implies a good line up of the planets.
