 The difference between Veidc and sayan astrology 
                                                      --------Dr.Hitesh Modha




What is correct -- Nirayan (Indian) or Sayan (Western) (There has been a lot of confusion to the fact whether Sayan system is right or Nirayan.Though being a major difference, yet it has not been well understood. Here, in this article, we try to clarify that the planets in the sky are moving according to Nirayan system, and hence only the nirayan system should be followed in astrology. Sayan system is merely meant for knowing the earth's position with respect to Sun and thus determining the seasons but it is not meant for knowing which planet is passing through which sign.) \ As per the western system sun enters into Aries on 22nd March every year whereas in Indian system Sun goes to Aries on 13/ 14th of April every year. What is correct? Both can not be correct at one time & definitely this means a lot in astrology. A difference of 23-24 days can not be ignored when we are talking of few minutes or seconds accuracy in giving predictions. The followers of Sayan system strongly recommend the usage of 22nd March as entry of Sun into Aries. We at Future Point have tried to go into the root of this problem by looking at the stars physically in the sky and arrived at a conclusion that in the sky, all planets move according to the nirayan system only. To understand it fully let us divide the study into two parts. 1. What is the situation of various planets as computed presently versus the stars. 2. What was the situation 2000 years ago & what will be the situation after 2000 years. Second condition amplifies the difference of Ayanamsa to give a more clear view about the Sayan & Nirayan systems. Now we will discuss both the points in detail.
