Spiritual Astrology, What is It?
By: Curtis Burns

Spiritual AstrologyActually spiritual astrology is the only kind of astrology there is. Ultimately astrology is the study of the soul integrating with the physical world. When you come into embodiment, there is an inner potential that you have; something unique that only you can contribute to the universe. This is something that stems from your soul, the ephemeral part of you that is most akin to God than anything else in your life. |

Your SoulYour soul then determines what kind of jobs you'll have, your relationships, and how you are going to deal with things. It is the different parts of your soul that astrology seeks to define through it's modalities: cardinal, fixed, mutable, earth, fire, water, and air. What you do, how you do it, and who you do it with are actually very much a part of what your soul is.Our Spiritual PotentialWhy do we do these things? It is because through these situations and actions we fulfill the fullness of our spiritual potential. Spirituality is not accomplished only within the walls of a church, it is done through the totality of all that we do. Since astrology seeks to describe and predict the total various parts of our lives, astrology de facto is very spiritual. |
Vedic AstrologyThere are various forms of astrology in use today, and to varying degrees their systems have retained the original spiritual clarity. There is also the factor of the level of the spirituality of the astrologer himself, the reading is only going to be as spiritual as the person giving the reading. One of the spiritual clearest forms of astrology today is Vedic astrology; which is also called Indian or Hindu astrology.
Vedic astrology's roots show up in the writings of the ancient Vedic sages several thousand years before Christ. It was the Vedic culture that subsequently planted seeds of religion, society, and science all over the world. Western style astrology is a literal descendant from Vedic astrology, but it certainly went through a period of decline in the Dark Ages of Europe. Western astrology is very good and useful, but it's spiritual foundations are somewhat muddied through the ravages of history. Vedic astrology however has remained more or less intact since its beginnings.
