The excellent mixture of art, craft and science is what is known as Astrology. The subject remains mysterious and has no ends, no matter how much of knowledge is acquired on the same. This characteristic of astrology makes it an interesting science. No science or art is more interesting, instructive and useful to mankind than the magnificent science of Astrology.
Astrology is the most ancient of all sciences and has reached considerable perfection not only in India but across the universe thousands years ago. These days several softwares have been introduced for the purpose of making the subject of astrology interesting and knowledge oriented. These programs help you test your skills in the basics of this subject. The main aim of these softwares is to help you develop a better understanding of Vedic Astrology and sharpen your skills in this area.
Various theories have been set up to discover the influences of planets upon the terrestrial phenomena. It is admitted by some people that close relationship does exist between the movement of the celestial bodies in the heaven, renaissance of different empires, changes of human passions and the resurgence of Arts, Sciences and Literature. There are others also who denies the existence of any sort of connection between the stars and the inhabitants of the Earth i.e. we, the human beings!!
The reason of their attitude is due to the fact that they do not approach the subject with prejudice free and an unbiased mind. In any field of inquiry it is a major error of the intellect to oppose the prejudices of prior arguments to the evidence afforded by the facts.
Astrology is the science which compromises the foretelling of the regular movement of planets, the fortunes and misfortunes of men, pestilences, and other incidents relating to terrestrial phenomena. In Sanskrit it is called Hora Sastra meaning the science of Time. Astrology is also popularly termed as Jyotisha or the Knowledge of Light from Jyoti which is the root-cause of all the creations on earth.
