About the Planetary Aspects Course
Planetary aspects, traditionally known as Drishti in Vedic astrology, are used to examine the relationships between planets and the signs or houses they influence. Traditional Parashari astrology considers the general seventh aspect of planets and the special aspects of Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. Understanding these principles helps learners organize planetary influences within the context of a complete birth chart.
This course introduces learners to the basic methods of identifying planetary aspects and examining their relationships with other chart factors. Students practise recognizing aspect patterns, understanding special planetary aspects, observing mutual influences, and organizing chart findings. The programme provides a foundation for further study and encourages learners to avoid drawing conclusions from a single aspect in isolation.
