FAQ<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Is this fortune-telling?<\/strong><\/h3><\/div><\/div>

Absolutely not - it\u2019s not a gift, and astronomy is a concrete science. It requires thorough analysis beforehand. Then, during the consultation, we refine the insights together, because only you know your own life experience. We all possess certain gifts, talents, and contributions that enable us to make a difference in this world. I shed light on things, but I don\u2019t do anything for you - you take action.
Jyotish teaches us that we are not prisoners of fate but co-creators of our reality. This invites us to view the stars not as chains, but as tools for understanding that help us align with our highest purpose.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

How can the planets influence us?<\/strong><\/h3><\/div><\/div>

That\u2019s a very good question! In reality, I don\u2019t claim to be able to demonstrate a physical mechanism by which the planets influence human beings.
I\u2019m not talking about a gravitational or magnetic force. I use Vedic astrology as an interpretive system. What interests me is its ability to bring meaning and clarity to the guidance I provide.
I always distinguish between two things: the mechanism and the practical value. The mechanism hasn\u2019t been scientifically proven. However, I\u2019ve observed that this tool allows certain people to put their experiences into words, take a step back, and make more informed choices. It\u2019s this practical value that interests me.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

What is the difference between Jyotish and Western astrology?<\/strong><\/h3><\/div><\/div>

> Western (Tropical) Astrology
Based on the seasons, not on the actual positions of the stars. The zodiac always begins in the spring (on March 21) with the sign of Aries, even though the stars have moved across the sky. Example: If you were born on April 1, you are an Aries in Western astrology.

> Sidereal (Vedic) Astrology
BBased on the actual positions of the constellations in the sky. It takes into account the precession of the equinoxes (a slow shift in the Earth\u2019s axis that means the stars are no longer where they were 2,000 years ago). 
In practical terms, this means your Vedic sign may differ from the sign you know in Western astrology.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Will all of your questions be answered?<\/strong><\/h3><\/div><\/div>

No, at least not in a single session. Just as a psychologist, for example, wouldn\u2019t solve all your problems in a single session. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to prioritize your questions using the form you\u2019ll fill out before your consultation.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

What do you mean by a therapeutic alliance? <\/strong><\/h3><\/div><\/div>

It\u2019s an active collaboration based on a shared understanding of the problems and an agreement on possible solutions\u2014a mutual commitment.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
