I have Sun conjunct Venus in my 6th house and the description for that was...terrible. Sure we all have to face bad things in life, but vedic astrology makes me feel like I'm stuck living with these ailments and I'll never change them.

I thought astrology wasn't set in stone and we all have free will so why is vedic astrology so harsh?

"Native will be ugly, prone to disease, unlikely to acquire wealth.." etc. I mean come on.

Yeah Vedic astrology concentrates on the negatives a lot and imo is wrong completely. I don't put much stock in it at all, though others might. I'd say stick with western astrology

Please don't read these generic website interpretations. Watch someone like KRS Astrology or Ernst Wilhelm on YouTube who really knows about Vedic astrology.

Also, what houses do sun and venus rule? What aspects do they receive? Is it in exalted sign? Is the combination in any of the relevant divisional charts?

Don't get put off by these stupid interpretations online. Vedic astrology imo is an excellent predictive astrology, western is more psychology based

I agree with m.blade. The online interpretations are ripped from old text and likely misunderstood. I find them fatalistic as (online) western interpretations are vague.

I'd also like to add Sam Geppi(also on YouTube) as a Vedic astrologer to look into. I recently downloaded his Saturn through signs mp3 along with mp3s explaining houses.

Vedic is not scary :P

Oh gosh, please, don't read just anything on Vedic

I 3rd KRS. He is an excellent Teacher. Excellent, excellent, excellent

He has even stated that a, lot of vedic astrologers are doom and gloom.
He always gives a positive outlook because he said that today's world is a lot different than the times of old

sun conjunct venus is a great aspect anyway. it gives beauty no matter what house its in. I'm assuming you pay close attention to your health? if not do so and you will avoid any problems.

Western astrology has yet to fail me in psychology and transits so I advocate that the most BUT

If I were to practice Vedic I would use KRS

I wouldn't judge all vedic astrology by one source. Any system of astrology has quite a range of quality and if you are getting cookbook astrology from any system then you are only getting interpretations of parts and pieces instead of synthesis.

Having said that, if it makes you feel so bad, dispose of that particular source. Vedic astrology probably draws some people to it out of some lure to the exotic eastern that has mystic answers. There's no guarantee of that.

I dislike reading vedic astrology interpretations. I have gone to a few sites and it makes it out to be a wealthy, much valued celebrity or an evil criminal along the ranks of Hitler (figuratively speaking). Both are found in the reading........

There's so much replies! Thank you for responding I always think I'm gonna be ignored on here

I've heard of KRS Astrology and I actually watched his series on lord of houses in (insert house#). I forgot about him haha oops. :/ The only thing I'm a bit iffy about is he doesn't mention any other planet beyond Saturn in his interpretations and since Pluto is my chart ruler, it's pretty serious for me.

To m.blade: Sun and Venus are both in Taurus and Sun rules my 9th house while Venus rules both my 6th, 7th and 11th house since both are in Taurus and my 11th is in Libra.

To athenegoddess: Right on the money. Those cookbook interpretations for Venus in the 6th are something I can relate with.

YES hahaha. An ebook I read on Vedic Astrology said Sun & Venus in the 6th house would damage my sex life and make me unable to fulfill my partners needs. If I ever read anything more false...

Vedic astrology can seem very fatalistic and negative, I believe this is because people try to sell "remedies" in the form of gemstones and the like, and oftentimes you'd see an astrologer who also sells the gemstones, they make the person feel paranoid about their lives with the fatalistic astrology and then they're like "not to worry though! there is a remedy for this placement, and luckily for you I have just the right gemstone". Con artists, lol. But there are a lot of better websites and Vedic astrologers out there, avoid the negative websites.

Ideally, Vedic Astrology should be used to supplement Transit Analysis using the 120 Year "Vimshottari MahaDasha" System. Their insights about the nature of planets is also good, though their Sidereal Psychological Analysis is a complete failure. The great Carl Payne Tobey called their bluff, once he gave his chart to one of their proponents and the other Astrologer was shell shocked after giving the gloom and doom stuff to learn that the chart was of the very successful person right in front of him

In times just before the medieval ages, Brahmin Priests twisted Astrological findings to create only worst case interpretations and to scare the general public, and charge cash/food/cows for prayers or amulets to keep the terrible predictions from occurring.

Western Astrology, researched by Western Occultists is miles ahead in psychological analysis. Vedic Astrology suppresses and represses, Western Astrology elevates and liberates. You can see this in the attitude of the general people. To support the Human Rights of one martyred black kid, millions of Americans of all ethnic groups and religions take to the streets to protest peacefully. These are the people and children who were subtly influenced by Hermetic Students and Alchemists in the 19th and 20th century. From the Old French Philoosphers, Thomas Paine , Emerson and then those like Linda Goodman to Gene Roddenberry, Kubrick, Spielberg, James Cameron and now Watchowski brothers and Nolan brothers.
Teachers who use the medium of movies to work on the subliminal Mind.

They are working to overcome the mistakes of their of their ancestors and probably the karma of Atlantis itself by the pursuit of Equality, Liberty, Human Rights and Multi-dimensionality.

In India, hundreds of tribals or minorities can be killed and the Vedic Astrology Proponents win elections with a thumping majority to rub it in. If a few liberals protest, they are bullied. A Chief Minister who misgoverns a genocide is able to accumulate 2 billion dollars of funding from the right wing populace and corporates to win a parliamentary majority, and the lumpen elements do not even have to apologize for the genocide and institutional bias against minorities... this is just 60 years after Liberals like Gandhi and Nehru [influenced by Western Occultists] win freedom for them.

Strict Vedic Astrology Meanings = Caste System and Dehumanization. Their proponents will never understand Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. They will never understand unconditional love, they need to oppress some group or the other to satisfy their Ego.

Western Astrology = Humanitarian and Spiritual Evolution. The proponents have integrated Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Asteroids and Fixed Stars etc.


Be proud of your Western Hermetic, Astrological and Occult Traditions and cherish it.

Sun conjunct Venus, a beautiful conjunction. In the 6th, it will create an awareness for improving health for the sake of a beautiful life. There will be a value system that respects service and care bordering on selflessness, depending on the Sign of Sun and Venus.

Thank you so much for replying, IQ. Your words are beautiful and they've put my mind at ease.

"Their proponents will never understand Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. They will never understand unconditional love, they need to oppress some group or the other to satisfy their Ego." Saddening, but true. Ignoring Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto is what really infuriates me. I see a lot of comments on the blog of harsh Vedic Astrologers and they all sound so worried and frantic when they read those horrible interpretations.

No one should feel there's no way out and they're doomed to a life of nothing but adversities. Astrology is our friend that helps us learn and overcome. It's NOT our enemy.

Hey Shyberry ♥️

Venus in the 6th house indicates a love for animals , nature , good health meaning wonderful sex life , long life , Venus in 6th House people will always want a beautiful life for themselves and their partner. Their love will be expressed practically, and they’ll always support their other half with everything they can.
These individuals are the type who would let everything go just to be of help for their lover, which means many will want them as partners or that others will take advantage of them. They enjoy being shown love through small gestures like doing the laundry and cooking.
Venus in 6th House summary:
* Strengths: Affectionate, practical and dependable;
* Challenges: Demanding and prone to worrying;
* Advice: Sometimes, in life, you just need to give it time;
* Celebrities: Emma Watson, Will Smith, Gwyneth Paltrow, Adam Levine, Louis Tomlinson.

It’s important for them to realize they’re too giving and that this is not the way for a romantic affair to evolve. They should be with someone who appreciates their love and generous nature, a person who’s ready to serve and to give them lots of love. People with Venus in the sixth House function at their best when having to express themselves romantically, socially or artistically.
Developing great relationships with their friends and co-workers, they may find the love of their life in the workplace.
Others usually love and respect them, no matter if they’re criticizing and can’t stand any vulgarity or ugly behavior.


Please don’t ever worry yourself about Vedic astrology, it is very damaging and just absolute TRASH

Often knowledge gets distorted over time. People misinterpreted by accident or intentionally to make something suit their purpose. The older the message the more likely it will be corrupted.

When it comes to your personality and the purpose of this lifetime, trust your own intuition and that of the people you know and trust. If something resonates and makes sense to you, use it. If not, just walk away from it.

There’s a lot of information on the web available about Vedic and Western astrology. I mostly use Western astrology but I do think that certain aspects of Vedic astrology are very interesting. The importance of the Moon sign, the different concepts of karma and the relationships between the houses are concepts I’m drawn to. I don’t like the fatalistic approach to karma but I do think that we can’t avoid certain events in our life. However, bad things happen to good people as well and it’s not the universe plotting against us. I think it matters what we do with these experiences. Astrology helps me to understand the energy in my life a bit better. Both Western and Vedic astrology help me with this, but I always check if it makes sense to me and feels right.
