Course Modules

Six carefully sequenced modules guide you from foundational concepts to practical chart interpretation.

Module 1 — Introduction to Jyotish & Chart Construction

Explore the philosophical roots of Vedic astrology and understand how a birth chart is calculated from date, time and place of birth. You will learn the difference between the tropical and sidereal zodiacs, the role of Ayanamsha, and how to generate a North Indian and South Indian style chart using both manual methods and modern software.

Module 2 — The Twelve Rashis & Their Qualities

Study each of the twelve Rashis (signs) in depth, covering their elemental nature, modality, ruling planet and the behavioural patterns they impart. Through real-chart examples you will see how sign placement colours planetary expression and sets the stage for house-level analysis.

Module 3 — Bhavas: Understanding the Twelve Houses

The houses are the arenas of life where planetary energies manifest. This module examines the significations of each Bhava from the first house of self to the twelfth house of liberation, including the distinction between Kendra, Trikona and Dusthana houses and how house lords connect different life themes.

Module 4 — The Nine Grahas: Planets in Vedic Astrology

Meet the Navagraha — the Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu. Learn their natural significations, friendship and enmity relationships, exaltation and debilitation points, and the unique role of the shadow planets in shaping karmic patterns across the chart.

Module 5 — Aspects, Conjunctions & Core Yogas

Discover how planets interact through Drishti (aspects) and conjunctions, creating powerful combinations known as yogas. You will study essential yogas such as Gajakesari, Budhaditya, Viparita Raja and Neechabhanga Raja Yoga, learning to identify them quickly and assess their strength in any horoscope.

Module 6 — Synthesis & Practical Chart Reading

Bring everything together in a capstone module focused on holistic chart interpretation. Working through multiple case studies, you will practise weaving sign, house, planet and yoga analysis into a coherent narrative that addresses career, relationships, health and spiritual inclination.

What You Will Learn

  • Construct and read both North Indian and South Indian chart formats with confidence.
  • Evaluate planetary strength using Shadbala and dignity tables.
  • Identify and interpret key yogas that elevate or challenge a horoscope.
  • Analyse house lords and their placements to map career, relationship and health themes.
  • Deliver a structured chart reading that communicates insights clearly and ethically.
  • Use modern Jyotish software tools to speed up calculations without losing manual understanding.

Student Testimonial

Before this course I found Vedic charts intimidating — all those unfamiliar symbols and Sanskrit terms. By the end of Module 3 I was already spotting yogas in my own chart, and the final case-study sessions gave me the confidence to start reading charts for friends. The teaching is thorough yet wonderfully accessible.
