Language of the Stars

Ghanshyam Singh Birla

Astrology is the language of the stars and planets, and as in any language there is a vocabulary and rules of grammar that allow us to construct meaning and communicate our ideas with others. In astrology, this consists primarily of the description of the signs, the planets, the houses, the aspects, and the transits. Once you have learned the vocabulary and grammar, you are on your way to becoming fluent in one of the most ancient, sacred, and fascinating languages in the world. Understanding what our stars and planets tell about ourselves and our destiny will enrich our lives in countless ways and help us become happier, healthier, wiser, and even wealthier human beings.

In this down-to-earth and clearly written work, world renowned Astro-palmist and Vedic scholar Ghanshyam Singh Birla takes the reader on a cosmic journey from mastering the ABCs of Vedic astrology to understanding how the interplay of the heavenly bodies can affect our lives.
