Why Learn Graha Sutra in Vedic Astrology for Prediction
Most students of Jyotish learn houses, signs and yogas. But when someone asks,
“What will Saturn do in my 4th house?” or
“What will Venus actually give in my life?”
the mind becomes blank or very generic.
In paramparā, the Graha is the real doer. Rāśi, house, divisional chart are the stage and environment. If you do not know the Sutra of each Graha, your predictions will remain theoretical.
Graha Sutra – Easy Predictive Astrology is created exactly to bridge this gap.
In this course we slowly build your lens in this order:
- Understand the planet itself – guna, tattva, devatā, body part, mental pattern, karmic role.
- See how it behaves in different signs, houses, dignities, strengths and weaknesses.
- See how it ripens with age – when its karma-vipāka is delivered strongly.
- Learn special sutras from 12 classical granthas and Nadi-style hints.
- Apply all of this in live chart reading – career, marriage, health, finance, spiritual life.
You will see how much you can say from a chart just by reading planets correctly, even before going into big yogas or fancy systems.
The tone of the course is simple, practical and traditional. We stay close to shāstra, but keep the explanations grounded, as a teacher explaining to sincere students in a small room – not as a big show.
