Join Joli & Aswin as we mark the half-way point of Season 2. We start with an apology to our listeners: we were thrown off-track in our recording schedule due to health-issues/life events/admin issues and as such, we’ve decided to pick up the second half of the season after the United Astrology Conference in Chicago in September 2026. We thank everyone for their understanding in this.
So we will pick up with the rest of the guests we plan to host in the last quarter of the year. In the meantime, we did manage to record this conversation revolving around Aswin’s new book, Essentials of Jyotișa.
We discuss Aswin’s thoughts behind writing this first book in a series (which serves as a foundational text for Aswin’s Jyotish teachings) and how his approach differs (or is similar) from what is on offer from others who teach the Indic traditions of astrology.
We also delve into how both Hinduism and Jyotișa are not as monolithic as people might think.
If you’re interested in learning more about the Indic understandings of life and rituals in connection to their associations with Jyotișa (we touch on the elements as being fundamental) then you will likely enjoy this conversation!
