'Physiognomy' or 'Face
reading'. It is obvious that when we meet an unknown
person, we try to understand his feelings by looking
at his face. So the origin of Physiognomy traces
back to the date of origin of human beings.
Astrology has originated from Vedas (the oldest
Hindu books of knowledge) and flourished in ancient
India, lakhs of years ago. Its roots cannot be traced,
but it was discussed and much regarded by all the
great Indian seers like Parashara, Jaimini and others.
Astrology is referred to as ‘Jyotish’
, which means ‘related to Light’. But
then what is light?
The word light is indicative of knowledge, and darkness
is a symbol of ignorance. Astrology lights the path
of human beings and provides better guidance in
molding their future.
We know that Sun is the principal source of light
and heat. The rays of Sun fall on plants and produce
food in them by ‘photosynthesis’, which
is highly desirable for any plant to grow. Sun is
a factor for the entire vegetation to grow on this
earth and the animals and human beings are depending
on it. Then , is there any surprise if Sun is called
‘soul’ of the universe ? Sun is also
referred to as ‘Chakshu’ of the Omnipotent.
Chakshu means eyes. With eyes we can be in light.
Without eyes we will be in darkness. Hence, Greeks
and Egyptians called Sun as god of Astrology.
