If you go to Hindu Temples, look at the ceilings. You can understand a lot about Zodiac.

[loganlab]

India has astrology before 5000 B.C. We have birth charts showing sun, 9 planets and moon having specific effects on zodiacs and 12 specific regions of life. Unlike western astrology based on solar movements only, we have lunar and planetary aspects in addition to on various zodiacs.

The night skies must have looked amazing back then without all the light polution.

[bohem]

Stars at night were a light show for ancient people. If you've ever a seen a clear night sky away from the city lights, it's pretty hard for them not to get your attention. Not hard, day after to day to notice the arced or circular movements. Over time the repetition of patterns and relation to the seasons, etc. Over more time and repetition one could make predictions based on what they know in relation to the cycles. Nothing "alien" about it. It's common sense.

Anyone watching this in bed before they sleep? <3

I believe astrologers were built for these times. Fear is something we have had to overcome for centuries. We are blacklisted in religion, The science community takes credit for all the alchemy teachings that stem from astrology. We are called witches, and that we practice the devil's work. Our own families, and friends distance themselves from fears of associating with us. We as astrologers learn to hold the line of truth, hermetic principles and values. We don't run away from it, we stand in our service to the highest orders of nature. I love all the astrologers out there who continue to stand in their truth.

The only problem is that the constellations were imagined on a 2 dimensional plain. We now know that the stars are scattered over a vast 3 dimensional space where one star in a constellation might be a zillion miles from another and not really in a group at all. Pretty pictures tho.♎

[altide]

Isn't it weird how accurate the signs explain our personalities, yet alone our birth charts? I'm a virgo and everything is just spot on

[dwarakakhil]

This astrology was written by brihith parasara (saint) in dwapara yuga for the first time. He told to human beings and now by using this astrology we can predict exact situation of past, present,and future of a person .I have seen so many persons in india are predicting exactly

[butchcassidy]

That's so crazy that he said that the zodiac signs are just a topic of conversation but in the past, it was the most important thing".
It's the most important than right now"
Just go ask all the billionaires and power players who make the world go round.
It still is", the most important thing even today.

[savesch]

These constellations sends down different frequencies of energy to earth depending on the month. A new born baby is so delicate that will absorb that energy and indent his personality. This is why people believe about different signs and different personalities but that don’t know the science behind that as it were forgotten

[phoebeleighhalse]

I'm so glad to see so many people are awakening

A particular zodiac sign also dominates the world for about 2200, moving in retrograde. This affects religion, and the culture, and then history interpretation. Now is the transition from Pisces to Aquarius.
The fish for instance swims in the dark waters of the Earth, and can only gape up at the heavens, at the stars.
In each zodiac age a particular life form is glorified the most. For instance in the Age of Gemini it was the serpent, in the Age of Taurus it was cattle and especially the bull, in the Age of Aries it was sheep and especially the ram, in the Age of Pisces being the fish, and in the Age of Aquarius being the mineral kingdom. (One can read more about these things in the book 'Gospel of the Stars' by Peter Lemesurier.)

President Trump crossed his fingers and said : " No I Don't Believe In UFO's . " " But I May Have Been on Board One "

[zztopz]

It was to predict cataclysms associated with the orbit of Nibiro. The animals/gods were the Nibirians. We shouldn't assume that ancient people were less advanced and didn't know about space.

[jarinazf]

I'm more interested in how 6 scattered stars look like a half man half horse galloping and shooting a bow and arrow

[mallutuber]

Hey sir why are you not publishing new episodes on history tv 18 please publish new episodes on it we people are very excited to see new episodes.
Thank you

[mariawirth]

wondering why such videos hardly ever mention India, which has the oldest preserved texts on astronomy, astrology and many other sciences. The focus is only on Greece, Egypt, Mesopotamia, sometimes Maya and Inca. Are they worried that people take interest in the knowledge of India, which is the last surviving ancient culture, and discover its profundity?

[mamag]

There used to be 13 Zodiac signs until the Gregorian calendar was introduced by Pope Gregory. There are 13 full moons every year and now there's a blue moon because of that. Also a woman cycles 13 times a year...

[junejourney]

Nothing can compare to Sumerian or Babylon in history 💥
