Why Astrological Predictions are Often Wrong
Half knowledge is always dreadful and the same goes for astrology.We all must have witnessed that many a times predictions for our future are very vague, the reason behind this is insufficient information. In this article we will try to probe and figure out why this is so.
Importance of the birth name
At the time of a
child’s birth, parents consult astrologers. Astrologer give a name to
the child depending on his/her Nakshatra. Astrologers calculate the
Nakshatras according to the date of birth, place of birth and time of
birth. But people name their children according to their own liking and
not according to the Nakshatra, that is the reason why a lot of ambguity
creeps in. Others usually use the name given by the parents rather than
the original astrologically correct birth name.
If a person doesn’t
get his/her birth name correct on the natal chart, then the placement of
planets and stars can go for a toss. For example whenever a person is
affected by the Sadesati of Saturn or an Eclipse it will have its effect
on the basis of the original name of the person. If the person is
afflicted with some disease he will get the bad effects of that disease
whether he knows it or not, similar position is seen when considering
loss or profit.
Even some
astrologers don’t pay much heed to the importance of the birth name. For
example many famous astrologers predict the future of famous
politicians and filmstars on the basis of their popular name. This
method is completely incorrect if we go by Indian astrology. Let us take
an example: Lord Rama and Hanuman are Libra according to their names,
now the question is whether Ravana (the demon king of Lanka) dies on the
day, which was auspicious or inauspicious for Librans. If it was
auspicious then why did Ravana die or if it was inauspicious then why
did lord Rama win.
The situation was
similar for Lord Krishna and Kansa because both of them are Gemini
according to their names but they were poles apart in deeds and nature.
From all these examples we can draw a conclusion that influence of the
real name is stronger on the person than his/her popular name.
There is one more
question: if the birth name does not suit the person, then what should
be the criterion for the person to change his or her name. Should the
person go by numerology or astrology. Many top-notch astrologers are of
the view that a person lives under the influence of his birth name
throughout his life even if he/she changes his name.
The numbers also
give direction to the destiny. The planets influence the person through
numbers because each number is under a planet. For example 1- Sun 2-
Moon 3- Jupiter etc. But we should not forget that even though numbers
give directions to our destiny the final decision is made on the basis
of position of planets in the birth-chart.
