InLoveWithLife~ I can't say I've "studied" Vedic astrology, but I have had a chart done just for fun. Basically, it seemed to move everything back one sign or house. Instead of Scorp rising I get Libra. Instead of a Pisces moon, I get Aquarius. The slow moving planets didn't change except by degree...Jupiter went from 24 degrees Libra to 7 degrees. My Asc went from Scorp to Libra and my Moon went from Pisces to Aquarius.
I can relate to some of it, but find my western chart to just "fit" better. I'm not sure if that's because that's what I had looked at and studied for so long before I checked out the Vedic chart or what.
I really connected with the Libra Asc and Aqua moon. Both explained a few things...my love of all things I find beautiful, and I have read that Libra Asc gives one dimples.
The Aqua moon seems to explain my need for freedom and being different. In my western chart I always blamed it on my late Scorp Sun being so close to freedom loving Sag.
Other than that, nothing else seemed to fit very well.
