Astrology had always been a fascination for me, and thankfully I could learn it professionally 2 years back. In fact I had started predicting since childhood with my limited knowledge and had to stop reading due to a scary incident - one of my classmates died just one year after I had told him that he would die soon!
At last I managed to transfer all my blogs from rediff to askenni, and I kinda feel better now. I am happy that all my blogs will stay in my own site, and my works can be saved for generations to come! :D. Who knows they might get published too!!

In my 2 years of experience in meeting people and reading their birth charts (horoscope), I have come across few interesting kinds of people who keep me motivating without their knowledge….
People who know astrology works & whose search for prediction is honest
These people are honest, humble and give due respect to the astrologer. They don’t wait for the astrologer to prove his skill. Their question is direct and they are ready to do whatever the astrologer asks them to do. My success rate had been 95 per cent with these people.
People who think Philip Kotler is better than Gautam Buddha
These people are ignorant skeptics who happen to read all the unwanted books in life and think they are the most knowledgeable soles on the planet. They are ever ready to argue using their meager scientific knowledge and love to put down astrology and astrologers anytime. The funniest part is that none of them would have read a single book on astrology except those columns published in newspapers on weekends.
People who know astrology, works but are scared to know the future
These people keep a safe distance from the astrologers, for they know it works perfectly. I know of a woman who had hell lot of affairs with men before marriage, and that was the only fear that stopped her checking her chart before marriage. What if the astrologer comes to know about her past in front of her would be?
People who know astrology works, but think the astrologer is a fake
These people are a bit tough to be handled honestly. They keep meeting a lot of astrologers as if they are making a documentary on them. They will keep their mouth shut most of the time, and keep staring at the astrologer just to check how much per cent the astrologer is right and how much per cent he is wrong. After meeting so many astrologers, they would have a minor idea about the planetary positions of their own chart and that is most dangerous part. They will keep comparing your prediction with other astrologers and vice versa. The only thing I could tell them is ‘half-baked knowledge is more dangerous than being completely ignorant’.
People who use astrologers as a psychological pillow
These people are least bothered about their horoscope, their chart and the prediction. All they want is a good listener so that they dump all their sorrows and worries on the astrologer and walk away peacefully. Honestly I am not into that business. This is counselor’s business and not astrologer’s.
People with low IQ
These people neither believe in astrology/ astrologer nor do they trust God completely. They think they are here on their choice, and will die only when they want. They think effort is the only thing that drives life, and that destiny is all fake. They even won’t understand the difference between God and astrologer. I know of a person who asked me if you claim you can predict then tell me what is the colour of the brief I am wearing! I could only pity him.
People who know astrology works but refuse to accept it
These people need logical reasoning for everything, but are ones who keep consulting an astrologer every 3 months. They are sincere about the prediction part, but too much logic kills them. Never talk about the logical reasoning to these people you will only lose your energy.
Few innocent questions they seek answers are…
1) How can celestial planets impact terrestrial being? What is the logic?
2) Do all people born on a particular period across the globe have the similar chart? That means their fate will remain the same, right?
3) What about twins? How come their lives are different?
Astrology is driven by few important concepts like karma, dharma and the almighty. It is all decided by God whether you believe in astrology or you don’t. God runs the complete show flawlessly and astrology is just a secret code that helps in understanding human life better. And honestly God is aware when to give you ONE TIGHT SLAP and make you believe in sacred sciences.
Last and not the least, an astrologer at once understands in which pattern you fall (from the above list) but doesn’t make it an issue, because ultimately he thinks it is his profession to deal with confused souls. So the next time when you meet any astrologers try to be open, honest, humble and respectful and keep your sick logic at home!
