Namaste edwerd,
Thank you for your post on astrology. Do you have an opinion you wish to offer on jyotiṣ (jyotish)? Do you see them as the same, similar or different?
Are you of the opinion that the planet's ( called grāha¹ in jyotiṣ) influence is via magnetic and electric fields as you mention and that is the main motivator or vehicle they use?
From where does this 'intelligence' come that sets up this system of cause-influence-and-effect? Any opinions you wish to share?
praṇām
words
