Vedic Astrology: A Review

1. The Interconnected Cosmos and Astrological Premises

Consider these phenomena: snowfall in the Himalayas brings cold waves to Madhya Pradesh; the full moon coincides with ocean tides. When soldiers march in step across a bridge, it can start to tremble; if we shake one pendulum in a connected series, neighboring ones begin to move – a principle known as 'resonance'.

The entire cosmos is profoundly interconnected, with every particle seemingly entangled with others. One incident can cause another to occur; nothing exists in true isolation. Everything is not only connected but also interdependent, forming a unified whole. In the beginning, as the Vedas state, ‘एकोऽहम् बहुस्याम’ (I am One, may I become many), all was one, and from this unity arose multiplicity. This ancient insight can be seen as a philosophical precursor to concepts like the Big Bang theory. The scientific notion of a 'singularity' before the Big Bang parallels the Vedic concept of ‘Advaita’ (non-duality). The immense force that triggered the Big Bang and its origins remain largely inexplicable by current science. This difficulty in explaining the 'first cause' is perhaps why Advaita philosophy regards creation itself as ‘Maya’ (illusion), asserting that the underlying reality is, and always has been, One – a concept that can be challenging to grasp.
