"Difference between Vedic and western astrology

 

Though both Vedic and Western astrology systems have 12 zodiac signs, they differ in their understanding of the position of constellations.

 

Vedic astrology is based on the sidereal zodiac – a system in which positions of planets are calculated based on where they are actually observed in the sky in respect of constellations. Western astrology, on the other hand, uses the tropical (fixed) zodiac. This system relies on four seasons that represent the Sun’s movement, equinoxes, solstices, as well as the tilt of Earth on its axis.

 

About 2,000 years ago, tropical and sidereal signs were in the same position. However, due to a phenomenon called the precession of equinoxes, tropical signs are drifting westward at a rate of one degree every 72 years. At present, western astrology’s Aries is about 24 degrees away from Vedic astrology’s Aries. As a result, these two systems have slightly different zodiac dates."
