Astro Zindagi has been founded by Mr Neeraj Dhankher to provide astrological solutions to people across the world. Our mission is to empower people to live their life fearlessly. Astrology is an extremely powerful tool. It operates at a sub-conscious level and has the power to transform our lives, if used constructively. Unfortunately, this hasn’t been the case and Vedic astrology has been maligned due to the fear implanted among the minds of the people by its practitioners. Today, people are scared to visit an astrologer as they are fearful of the ‘negative predictions’ given by the astrologer which only adds to their woes instead of alleviating them.
So then, how can one be empowered through astrology? By removing fear. Fear is the root cause of our nemesis. It is a powerful negative emotion and can significantly impact our decision-making process by focusing largely on negative consequences. By stopping us from taking timely action, fear degenerates our existence, limits our potential and stops us from achieving what we deserve. We end up compromising on our dreams, the kind of life we want, trim our life goals and ultimately sink into mediocrity.
However, this isn’t our default setting. We were born with the potential to achieve almost anything, although the timing may vary from person to person. But a mix of socio-psychological factors have conditioned our mind to stay fearful of our goals, materialistic desires and achievements. We live only once, and it is imperative that we get rid of this fear and achieve what we desire and deserve.
Astrology is a divine science which can give us vital clues to plan, strategize and achieve what we are capable of. There are a total of 12 houses in a birth chart, out of which nine indicate growth, while only three indicate degeneration. Similarly, there are nine planets in Vedic astrology, all of which have been vested with a specific purpose in our life. At times, we wrongly co-relate troubles with bad time, and completely ignore the cosmic connection behind it. Let’s take the example of one of the most dreaded planets, Saturn. Saturn is considered synonyms with sorrow, delay and obstacles. But for a life to grow inside a mother’s womb, it needs nine months (delay), there is pain (sorrow) and the baby has to struggle to come out (obstacles). A disruption at any stage can prove to be fatal for the health of the baby. Similarly, our life also needs to go through these processes to become strong and durable. Astrology helps us identify and diagnose the final outcome of an event, thus making the process enduring and enriching.
That’s how nature has created each one of us, boy or girl, rich or poor. All of us have an equal opportunity to multiply the abundance of positive energy present in our birth chart and find ways to channelise the negative energy so that our actions are in harmony with our planets. Once we realise this and identify an astrological roadmap, we will be able to live our lives fearlessly, with far greater success and contentment.
