In this episode Vedic meditation teacher Laura Poole speaks with Jyotish Vedic Astrologer Blaine Watson. Vedic Astrology, or Jyotish, as it is called in Sanskrit, has become an increasingly popular way of taking care of one’s future. Jyotish means the ‘best of lights’. It’s the Vedic science of bringing awareness to the evolutionary process life, predicting what’s coming, revealing that which is hidden from view, so we can adapt, adjust our behaviour, make better decisions and create greater coherent flow for ourselves as individuals and our society as a whole. Blaine Watson is a Jyotishee, or Vedic astrologer, who has been studying astrology since childhood. On a trip to India in 1980 while spending time with his teacher and Guru, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, he became deeply interested in Vedic astrology and began studying in earnest. After several years of self-study in India, USA, Spain, Netherlands and Switzerland, Blaine was personally certified as an expert in Jyotish by the Dean of the Department of Sanskrit at Benares Hindu University in Varanasi, India in 1989. He has been a professional astrologer for over 30 years and has more than 30,000 clients in over 30 countries. People find him only via word of mouth as the Vedic tradition with which he is associated does not permit him to advertise.
