Gemini home.
n. a state of exhaustion inspired by an act of senseless violence, which forces you to revise your image of what can happen in this world—mending the fences of your expectations, weeding out invasive truths, cultivating the perennial good that’s buried under the surface—before propping yourself up in the middle of it like an old scarecrow, who’s bursting at the seams but powerless to do anything but stand there and watch.
does vedic charts it's read exactly the same as western? like, the planet and signs have the same meanings? if not, can you link me to a site where's talk more about how to read my vedic chart, please?
the vedic houses have related or other meanings in particular. they're arranged in a grid rather than the western chart's circle:
planets and signs, i'd say little bit different, but easy to learn, i promise. lots of parallels. the degrees within the system and planetary aspects, rulers, completely new story but very exciting:
the 27 moon nakshatras aka decans aren't found in tropical charts and restructure the whole zodiac. that's the part where research is the most extensive, a lot of new terms and meanings to learn.
it's good to find your own moon's nakshatra and start from there, it's like finding your moon sign in western astrology and lots of fun. using moon decans for a chart is just marvelous to do, and each has symbols and planets and stories that go with it.
vedic astrology also goes the extra mile and has up to 9 (yes) alternative charts for specific aspects in your life which is pretty handy. for instance, the so-called D10 chart shows your career. or, the D9 chart your romantic life. but usually, jyotish doesn't interpret all at once and stick to the regular chart first, so not to worry.

“Him: I don’t date black women. It’s just a preference. Me: Based on what? Him: Nothing, it’s just how I feel. Me: Impossible, deliberate aversions come from somewhere. Him: Its just a preference, that’s all. Me: No, a preference is preferring broccoli to asparagus. You can say that because asparagus will always taste the same, even when prepared differently. Him: And? Me: And we’re not always the same at all. There are hundreds of millions of us and we’re each completely different from the next. If an employer said not hiring Black people was a preference would you agree? Him: No, but that’s based on stereotypes. Me: … And what is yours based on, facts?”
