There are about 50 Common methods used for fortune telling on this
earth which include astromancy, horary astrology, pendulum reading, spirit board reading, tasseography (reading tea leaves in a cup), cartomancy (fortune telling with cards), tarot reading, crystallomancy (reading of a crystal
sphere), nāḍi jyotiṣa and chiromancy (palmistry, reading of
the palms). The last three have traditional associations in the popular mind
with the Roma and Sinti people (often called "gypsies").
Chinese
fortune telling, better known as Suan ming (Chinese: ; pinyin: Suànmìng; literally:
"fate calculating") has utilized many varying divination techniques throughout
the dynastic periods. There are
many methods still in practice in China, Taiwan and Hong Kong today.
Over time, some of these concepts have moved into Korean, Japanese, and Vietnamese culture
under other names. For example, "Saju" in Korea is
the same as the Chinese four pillar method.
Another
form of fortune telling, sometimes called "reading" or
"spiritual consultation", does not rely on specific devices or
methods, but rather the practitioner gives the client advice and predictions
which are said to have come from spirits or in visions.
India: Varanasi - The oldest living city & Vedic astrology
Varanasi (kashi, Banaras) is a center of
education and learning for centuries and is aptly called as the cultural
capital of India. Scholars, intellectuals, philosophers, mystics and saints
from all over the world have been coming to Varanasi, the capital of education.
In earlier times, Varanasi was more famous for Vedic education and astrology
(jyotish). Students and scholars from different parts came to the holy city to
study and learn philosophy and astrology.
Thus, there developed a great tradition of learning of Vedic astrology or "jyotish shastra" at Varanasi. The system of Vedic astrology continues to even this day in Varanasi. It is very much evident in the "Guru Shishya parampara" of Kashi. In ancient and medieval period, jyotish was taught at "Ashrams" and "Gurukuls" and it continues to be taught at many of the present educational institutions in India.

The foundation of Hindu astrology is the notion of bandhu of
the Vedas,
(scriptures), which is the connection between the microcosm and the macrocosm. Practice relies primarily on
the sidereal zodiac, which is different from the tropical zodiac used in Western (Hellenistic) astrology in that an ayanāṁśa adjustment is made for the gradual precession of the vernal equinox.
Astrology remains an important facet
in the lives of many Hindus. In Hindu culture, newborns are traditionally named based on their jyotiṣa
charts, and astrological concepts are pervasive in the organization of the
calendar and holidays as well as in many areas of life, such as in making
decisions made about marriage, opening a new business, and moving into a new
home. Astrology retains a position among the sciences in
modern India Following a judgement of the Andhra
Pradesh High Court in 2001, some Indian
universities offer advanced degrees in astrology (The decision was upheld
by the Supreme Court of India in 2004)
Astrology remains an important facet
of Hindu folk belief in contemporary India. Many Hindus believe that heavenly
bodies, including the planets, have an influence throughout the life of a human
being, and these planetary influences are the "fruit of karma."
The Navagraha, planetary deities, are considered
subordinate to Ishvara, i.e., the
Supreme Being, in the administration of justice. Thus, these planets can
influence earthly life.
Astrology as of 2018, taught at
various universities in India, and there is a movement in progress to establish
a national Vedic University to teach astrology together with the study of tantra, mantra, and yoga
How Vedic Hindu Indian
astrology is original :
Without
doubt , Indian vedic hindu astrology is
far superior with a more than 3000 years legacy .
There
are following major differences between Western astrology and vedic astrology.
1. Western astrology does not
use fixed zodiac system , so its planetary longitude have shifted 24 degrees
which means almost all planets would go to next sign and thus changing all
calculations.
2. Western astrology
introduced Planets beyond Saturn like Neptune , Uranus and Pluto which are
having large orbital periods of 84 to 240 years which are too large compared to
average life of human being .These have not been empirically tested for sure
results for at least 4-5 cycles.
These
revolve around Sun at different plane than planets till Saturn. For these
reasons, Indian astrology has no use of these planets , just like a tractor
parallel moving in a field has no effects on highway traffic.
3. Western astrology
does not use Dasha system based on Moon's Nakshatra hence they cannot time the
events correctly and they solely go by Transit and change of planet's sign .
Which is already wrong as per first point because of different signs.
4. In astrology, the
shorter the period more is accuracy . So Moon sign gives the better results and
ascendant gives the best. But Western astrology believes in Sun sign which is
fixed for one month compared to Moon's 2.5 days.
That
can give general results only .
Now
with all these flaws in Western system , there can be no right predictions
either for personality or for future events in western astrology. So they are
easy targets by western scientists , who term Astrology as fraud and
psychological manipulation.
