Vedic Wisdom of Ayurvedic Astrology

Course Topics & Teachings

This course is suitable for all levels – whether you’re new to Jyotish or a dedicated student of Yoga, Ayurveda, or Vedic spirituality seeking to deepen your understanding of the cosmos and your place within it. Includes guided audio teachings, illustrations, and supplementary readings from Dr. David Frawley’s published works to support your study. These resources enhance your understanding of planetary archetypes and the integration of astrology into a holistic Vedic lifestyle.

Foundations of Vedic Astrology

Learn how to read and interpret the Vedic birth chart using the traditional principles of Jyotisha, including planets, signs, houses, aspects, yogas, and dashas. The course provides a complete system for understanding karmic patterns and guiding others toward insight and transformation.

While Vedic astrology shares basic structural elements with Western astrology, such as planets, signs, and houses, it uses different astronomical calculations and includes unique tools for subtle interpretation.

The Healing Power of Ayurvedic Astrology

Explore the unique intersection between Jyotisha and Ayurveda. Discover how planetary energies affect the body and mind, and how to apply remedies such as herbs, diet, color therapy, gemstones, and mantras to restore balance and support well-being.

Mantra and Ayurveda

The integration of mantra with Ayurveda brings powerful benefits for both body and mind. Chanting mantras can positively influence the doshas, enhance digestion, support immunity, improve sleep, and foster emotional balance. This course explores how to incorporate mantra into your daily Ayurvedic routine, supporting healing and inner harmony on every level. You’ll also discover how specific mantras may align with your unique constitution (dosha) and address subtle imbalances or personal goals.

Vedic Timing & Cosmic Rhythm

Dive into the timing systems of Jyotisha, including the Nakshatras, Muhurta (electional astrology), Ashtakavarga, and the Vedic calendar (Panchanga). These tools offer profound insights for making life decisions and living in harmony with cosmic cycles.

Transformational Applications of Jyotisha

This course guides you beyond prediction into the deeper purpose of Vedic Astrology—as a tool for self-realization and dharmic alignment. You’ll learn to view the stars and planets not only as indicators of karma, but as allies for conscious evolution and spiritual growth.

Vedic astrology is one of the most ancient yet futuristic planetary systems of knowledge, gaining global recognition today.

Nature and Goal of the Course

The course provides keys for unlocking the profound language and methodology of Vedic astrology, both in terms of chart interpretation and the application of remedial measures along with an Ayurvedic perspective. The goal of the course is to provide a good foundation in Vedic astrology and its Ayurvedic connections.

Its orientation is threefold:

To teach the fundamentals of Vedic astrology and chart interpretation through planets, signs, houses, aspects, yogas, divisional charts, and dashas.
To set forth the “Vedic Astrology of Healing” (Ayurvedic Astrology) including diet, herbs, color and gem therapy, as well as the use of mantras and deities.
To introduce the Nakshatras, Muhurta, Ashtakavarga and Vedic methods of timing, including the Vedic calendar (Panchanga).
