"Astrology in Vedas" by J.N. Bhasin is a scholarly and insightful work that traces the origin and foundations of astrology (Jyotish Shastra) in the Vedic scriptures. This book presents a compelling analysis of astrological references found in the Rigveda, Yajurveda, Samaveda, and Atharvaveda, showing how ancient seers encoded planetary knowledge, cosmic cycles, and predictive principles in poetic and symbolic language.The author explores how the Sun, Moon, stars, nakshatras, and planetary movements were understood and revered in Vedic times — not merely for ritual but for cosmic order, timekeeping, and individual destiny. It also connects Jyotish with other Vedangas such as Kalpa, Chhanda, and Nirukta, showing its scientific and spiritual integration in Vedic philosophy.Ideal for astrology scholars, Vedic researchers, and those interested in the scriptural basis of Jyotish, this book serves as a bridge between ancient spiritual wisdom and modern astrological practice.
