Indian Astrology by Jean Dethier
We all know our “sign” according to Western astrology. Cancer, Leo, Sagittarius, etc. These are the seasonal signs corresponding to the position of the Sun on the day of our birth.
The Sun spends a month in each sign since it passes through all twelve in the course of a year. The changeover date is around the 21st of each month, so by knowing your date of your birth you know your sign.
Things are not quite as simple in Indian astrology, firstly, because it gives priority to the Moon and not the Sun and, secondly, because it uses what is called a sidereal zodiac. The signs of this zodiac are superposed over constellations, without being subject to the constant shift resulting from the precession of equinoxes. To know your sign in Indian astrology means more or less knowing the constellation the Moon was passing through at the moment of your birth. And that position cannot be deduced merely by knowing your date of birth. It is necessary to have more detailed information and to use other means. nformation and to use other means.

The natal theme
 |
What is a natal theme? It is the representation of space, visible from a precise point on the globe at a precise moment. At this place and at this point in time a being came into the world. The profile of the heavens at the time of birth is what we call the theme. The natal theme captures, instantaneously, that inextricable knot of energies corresponding to the new-born individual: because each individual is a knot of energies ...
Whether alive or inanimate, that individual will only be able to survive or continue to exist as long as the combination of these energies remains in equilibrium. Since no equilibrium is perfectly stable, the individual will continue to change. But those major energy flows will maintain their strength, direction and character throughout that individual’s time of existence. The intensity and quality of these energies from all corners of the universe will, from the moment of birth, determine the nature and form of the individual together with the degree of being, i.e. level of consciousness. |

I would like to thank Mr Jean Dethier most sincerely for his introduction to Indian astrology. He was lucky enough to study in India with Professor K. Neelakantan, who died recently, who also practised astrology with the Maharaja of Mysore back in 1928. "
