5 Vedic Astrology books you should read before you die

Are you interested in the world of Vedic Astrology ?

Here is my take on 5 books that have changed my perception not only about vedic astrology but life per se.

Please comment if I missed out other pearls from the ocean.

1. Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra – Girish Chand Sharma

🔆 Perhaps one of the best translation of the classical text Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra in English.

🔆 Not for beginners as you might find it difficult to understand to start with.

🔆 The book is available at Amazon India. You can buy the book here Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra by G C Sharma

🔆 My personal experience is that you should read the book again and again for 1-2 years to have some meaningful knowledge.
