However, astronomy and mathematics used in astrology are simply awing. We get to know about the planetary motions and complex conjunctions simplified. Traditionally, there are varieties of techniques used in astrology depending upon the role of planet or star, or constellation in space and time. When there is a mention of space and time the philosophical assumptions take place. These assumptions give rise to questioning as per the modern intellectual lifestyle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While considering Natural Philosophy which we call \u2018Science\u2019, the question arises that whether a planet or a star or a constellation has an impact on one\u2019s life or not? There has been much research that has given no scientific basis for astrology, but does it mean there is no role of astrology in the life of people? Why do news channels and newspapers have astrological shows and columns?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> It is obvious that without a big audience base journos won\u2019t risk getting down their revenue. The millennials are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theatlantic.com\/health\/archive\/2018\/01\/the-new-age-of-astrology\/550034\/\">attracted more to astrology<\/a> and it\u2019s a fact. In the world of goals and ambitions in case of a failure, there is a need for a companion who tells you what went wrong and what went right. Astrology seems to be a perfect companion for these people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/armillar-ball-3408811_1280-1024x533.jpg\" alt=\"Astrology representation\" class=\"wp-image-1510\" srcset=\"https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/armillar-ball-3408811_1280-1024x533.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/armillar-ball-3408811_1280-300x156.jpg 300w, https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/armillar-ball-3408811_1280-768x400.jpg 768w, https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/armillar-ball-3408811_1280-432x225.jpg 432w, https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/armillar-ball-3408811_1280.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/asu.pure.elsevier.com\/en\/publications\/good-day-for-leos-horoscopes-influence-on-perception-cognitive-pe\">recent study<\/a> says individuals exposed to a positive horoscope from their own sign tend to show greater cognitive performances compared to people who summarize their negative daily horoscope. This directly means there is an influence in the psychology of individuals when they know positive stuff in their horoscope. This research was published recently in a <a href=\"https:\/\/asu.pure.elsevier.com\/en\/publications\/good-day-for-leos-horoscopes-influence-on-perception-cognitive-pe\">high-quality scientific journal from Elsevier<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One can easily conclude through this research that astrology is helpful in reducing the stress levels of individuals. Though ancient <a href=\"https:\/\/www.encyclopedia.com\/science\/encyclopedias-almanacs-transcripts-and-maps\/bhrigu-samhita\">Indian texts of \u2018Bhrigu Samhita\u2019<\/a>, the first book of Indian Astrology also mentions similar kinds of stuff. Its introductory chapter states that it was created by the sages out of compassion for humanity so that humanity could cope with the pressures of its existence and move towards a more spiritual nature. It can be logically argued that the purpose of Indian Astrology could be the \u2018management of stress&#8217; in individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Jyotisha contradicts the core concept of Indian Philosophy (Yoga).<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Time\u2019 is an integral part of Indian Philosophy. The \u2018Kala\u2019 and the \u2018Mahakala\u2019 are the time in individual level and the highest level respectively. At the level of \u2018Mahakala\u2019, there is a role of destiny or what we can call \u2018determinism\u2019. It is like whatever has to happen will happen for sure. For example <a href=\"https:\/\/scimonk.com\/index.php\/2021\/02\/25\/consciousness-senses-and-science-an-indic-perspective\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"622\">motion of the planets<\/a>, seasons in the earth, day and night, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although in the level of \u2018Kala\u2019 there exist some amount of \u2018free will\u2019 in individual because of \u2018desires\u2019 which is called the root <a href=\"https:\/\/scimonk.com\/index.php\/2021\/05\/20\/3-types-of-karma-indian-philosophy\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"893\">cause of individual existence<\/a>. Though maximum part of human existence lies in our sub-conscious system for example our breath, our heartbeat, functioning of organs, cells, neurons, brain, and many many more. The understanding of \u2018Mahakala\u2019 also lies in the sub-conscious system which needs to be \u2018realized\u2019 through proper education leading to the union of \u2018Kala\u2019 and \u2018Mahakala\u2019 or the Yoga. You can think of the popular analogy of a drop of water becoming one with the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/waves-2348857_1280-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"drop of water in sea an analogy\" class=\"wp-image-1512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/waves-2348857_1280-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/waves-2348857_1280-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/waves-2348857_1280-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/waves-2348857_1280-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/waves-2348857_1280.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Modern Jyotisha doesn\u2019t talk about \u2018union\u2019 but it creates a division between \u2018Kala\u2019 and \u2018Mahakala\u2019. Horoscopes are perceived in the \u2018walking state\u2019 or what Indian Philosophy calls it as <a href=\"https:\/\/scimonk.com\/index.php\/2021\/03\/30\/jagrit-avastha-of-human-consciousness\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"743\">\u2018Jagrit Avastha\u2019<\/a> but the union lies in the final stage of consciousness called <a href=\"https:\/\/scimonk.com\/index.php\/2021\/04\/11\/turiya-state-and-avastha\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"762\">\u2018Turiya Avastha<\/a>\u2019. In the Jagrit Avastha, there is a multifold division between things because of the nature of individuals as well as the universe, \u2018Prakriti\u2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here there is a direct contradiction between Jyotisha and the core concept of unity in Indian Philosophy. There can be confusion because \u2018Jyotisha\u2019 is considered within Indian Philosophy as its part. However, Mahabharata mentions in the past there was only one philosophy or \u2018Darshana\u2019 called <a href=\"https:\/\/scimonk.com\/index.php\/2020\/11\/21\/hiranyagarbha-yoga-darshana\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"387\">\u2018Hiranyagarbha Yoga Darshana\u2019<\/a>. In modern times this is directly the Yoga or the Union.  The root of Indian Philosophy is verily the &#8216;Yoga&#8217; and not the &#8216;Jyotisha&#8217;. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Do we need to believe in astrology for stress reduction?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are people who force some to believe in what they believe. Although everything comes out of some belief system itself, everyone is a part of the same loophole called \u2018existence\u2019 and \u2018illusion\u2019. So, there is no point of discussion on proving what to believe and what not be believed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/fortune-2414239_1280-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"astrology tarot\" class=\"wp-image-1511\" srcset=\"https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/fortune-2414239_1280-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/fortune-2414239_1280-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/fortune-2414239_1280-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/fortune-2414239_1280-338x225.jpg 338w, https:\/\/scimonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/fortune-2414239_1280.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Logically goods and bads are just a matter of perception.
