While generating chart, in extended chart, select:

~ House system: Whole Sign
~ Zodic: Hindu/Lahiri Geocentric (sidereal)

So I had to look at mine...
IQ posted this link on Vedic on another thread. http://martinrai.com/english/index_en.htm

So I have a Gem Venus
======================================
VENUS IN GEMINI
They are characterized by a great amount of curiosity, which is the main reason for which they begin a relationship.
Their feelings can be compared with the images from a kaleidoscope, which can captivate us by their beauty but are not twice the same.
They have an inborn taste for love-plays, for flirtation, for short relationships, sometimes with totally unknown people.
They manifest the tendency to have very many relationships at the same time, to which they don't pay much attention but which can make them feel good because they don't have the time to get annoyed.
They are not especially preoccupied by the physical interaction in itself but by the novelty.
Their sentimental life may be compared with the image of a butterfly, flying from flower to flower, never stopping in one place. The faithfulness is not their forte, and they don't like the possessive lovers.
They don't bother to fight for a relationship if they are confronted with some troubles, and they tend to fly away from a serious relationship.
They generally posses a very good sense of dissimulation, which help them solve their conflicts in a friendly way.
They are also endowed with a lot of spontaneity, they like the surprises and they are very communicative and you don't risk to get bored as long as you are in their company.

OK so I have to admit this fits..
Except for the unfaithful parts.
==================================

Mars in Seventh House
The native will be fond of sex and too demanding in sex and may indulge in indiscreet sex life. The native will be romantic also.

OK no comment here
======================================

Does anyone know if the lords are the same in Vedic as they are in Western???

Ie Leo= Sun
Can = Moon
etc...

I have Taurus Merc conj Venus in 9th with Vedic:

quote:

Venus in 9th House

Venus in this house does not offer good results. The native may have riches, but he will get his bread only after hard labour. His efforts are not properly rewarded. There will be dearth of male members, money, wealth and property. If Venus is accompanied by Mercury or any malefic planet the native will be a victim of intoxication and disease from seventeen years of age.

They were written for a Feudal populace in an age where Personality Development did not exist, where psychological empathy did not exist, where no man stood up for another's human rights. There was a rigid caste system based on profession. Only the local King or a couple of generals and soldiers had heroic/chivalrous values. Misogyny was quite dominant. The King could sentence anyone to death.

Hence the predictions and assessment were harsh or judgmental, to explain the cause of suffering.

I agree with IQ here.. Some of the interpretations seem very ancient..

On one net reading I did.. It said I have Serpent sight, and my neighbors should line their yards with bamboo to protect them self from me...
Not sure what aspect that is!! lol

In Vedic astrology,the outer planets Uranus,Neptune and pluto do not have rulership over signs.So Scorpio is ruled by Mars, Aqua by saturn and Pisces by Jupiter.The rest of the rulers are same as in Western.

This is hilarious!

Sun in 10th House

Benefic :
(1) Benefits and favours from government, good health and financially
stronger. [YA I GET A TARP BAILOUTS!]
(2) The native will get a government job and comforts of vehicles and
servants. [WHAT SERVANTS?]
(3) The native will always be suspicious about others.

Remedial Measures :
(1) Never wear blue or black clothes. [THAT'S ALL I WEAR!]
(2) Throwing a copper coin in a river or canal for 43 years will be highly
beneficial. [AND BE ARRESTED BY THE NYPD]
(3) Abstain from liquor and meat. [THAT'S ALL I EAT AND DRINK]

I look at vedic to compliment tropical and for both I base off western interpretation.

But still, what I found interesting about it all was that I identify with both of the charts. In a Western chart, I'm supposed to be Libra Asc, but in a Vedic one I'm Virgo Asc. Virgos are supposed to be very detail oriented, which I am, as well as picky eaters. But I'm only picky in that I always eat healthy food, because I want to look good for a long time, which ties back into my Libra Asc, I spend entirely too much time on my hair and my morning routine is almost exactly like Christian Bale's from American Psycho.

So I guess my truest chart would just be melding certain aspects together, rather than to hew to one or the other.

I have mentioned in another thread [Rishi Parashara thread] that Sidereal explains that part of our personality that is still static in this lifeline. Once we develop that side, the Tropical Chart comes into play.

The greatest power of Vedic Charts is the 120 Year Vimshottari Dasha Cycle. This is invaluable for transit analysis and explains why some good transits fail, why some harsh transits stop with pin pricks and so on.

The Vimshottari Cycle is so powerful, it can be frightening. There is hardly any escape from a Saturn sub-direction in this cycle and this is where forewarned = forearmed becomes valid.
